Chapter 738 The Vicious Curse
The news of the humans and ancient dragons who control the evil flames spread like wildfire in the Zuluo River Basin.
Not only did it spread between the two kingdoms of Losk and Helanlis, almost overnight, all the six kingdoms knew about it, and they followed the Zulu River from north to south. , to "Ross", "Carcassonne", "Salub", "Hatig", and finally to the world-famous port city in the south, Draslien City.
Do you think this is all there is to the Western Continent?
No, no, no, from the map, the land that covers the six kingdoms and is surrounded by water on three sides is just a protruding land on the mainland coastline. It can be understood as a giant peninsula.
Draslien is located on the southern coast of the peninsula, while the Zuro River Basin is located on the corresponding northern coast.
While the news about dragons and flames was abuzz in the Zulu River Basin, the city of Draslien was also in a state of turmoil.
Recently, a new madman has appeared and turned this place upside down.
First of all, the fleet of the Golden Law Temple was inexplicably intercepted before entering the port. All nine ships were sunk with all their supplies offshore to feed the fish. Then the murderer began to replicate the same method in all the other temples. On the fleet, all temples, large and small, no matter whether they were escorted by the apostles of spiritual visioners or not, were not spared.
And it is said that the madman has recently set his sights on the core of the city tower that maintains the operation of Draslien City...
Anyway, the so-called largest trading port city in history has been in a state of chaos in the past month.
For a time, the land where the six kingdoms were located seemed to be lost at the same time.
……
Pfft…
Pfft——
Pfft...
The upper reaches of the Zuluo River, Hidrok Mountain.
In the dim night, some sparks kept appearing in the air but quickly extinguished.
That was Milo rubbing his fingers and trying again and again.
But no matter how he changed his techniques, he could only get out some scattered sparks, which made him somewhat confused and depressed.
"It's okay, you're probably just tired, it's okay, it's okay."
Freya, who was sitting aside holding her knees, comforted softly.
“Don’t you think this sounds weird?” In the darkness, Milo spread his hands.
“What’s wrong?” Freya obviously didn’t understand.
“……”
…
Three days have passed since the events in Wulaxilu Temple and Eagle Eye City.
Probably after that, Milo began to realize that he could not bring out the gentle side of the fire of sin.
Just like now, no matter how hard you rub it, you can only get out some scattered sparks.
Originally, it wasn’t a big problem, but after being comforted by Freya like this, it felt like it was a serious problem.
The good news is that the flames only become weak at night when Freya is going to sleep. To be precise, the gentle fire is no longer enough, but the black flames are still strong. In the past few days, there have been purification legions and hooks. The apostles from the temple came after them, but without exception, they all became a source of nourishment for the fire of sin.
And until now, Milo doesn't know what the gentle fire is fueled by.
Black Flame, the cruel and annihilating side of the Fire of Sin uses fear as fuel, but the gentle side of Fire is obviously not the same thing as the Black Flame.
Anyway, it doesn’t work now.
…
"I don't believe it."
Sometimes even CCD can get into trouble.
What's more, Milo is now just a human who is close to an ordinary soul.
So he rubbed it furiously in frustration, without caring about the feeling of the gentle fire, just to summon it out.
In the cave at night, sparks were crackling and flying.
In the end it was still all dark.
The two of them could only see a little fluorescent light reflected from each other's eyes in the darkness...
…
"Okay, it's all over."
Finally, Milo honestly took out the flint and lit a few firewood on the ground.
"Conditions are limited, I can only enjoy this kind of ordinary fire from now on."
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as it can illuminate." Freya didn't have such high requirements.
But it is true that ordinary flames cannot even withstand the cold air at night outside, so how can they soothe the soul like gentle fire.
So she stared at the bonfire with wide eyes for a long time. Her eyes were still wide open. It cannot be said that she was not sleepy, but at least she was full of energy.
For a long time, the two of them just stared at the not-so-strong fire in front of them, remaining silent.
Until a certain moment, Freya suddenly asked:
"Why did you go back to save me? When we were in Leng Yuan."
"Because I found that your cheese has a very healing effect. Okay." Milo gave an answer that was not heartwarming at all. But Freya seemed satisfied with the answer.
This is what she said: "Some people have discovered it before, but they only wanted to kill me and take the things away."
"Actually, I don't understand at all. Why are you being persecuted and hunted like that when you have such a strong ancient dragon bloodline? I mean, if all the ancient dragons are sent out together, no temple can withstand it, right?"
< br>But after saying this, Milo felt that he had taken it for granted.
After all, not everyone knows the truth that the gods have been lost like him.
…
Freya opened her eyes wide and said: "Not all Xi people can transform into dragons, only a few can."
"Oh, no wonder." Milo suddenly realized.
If you think about it this way, the ordinary Greeks are nothing more than a group of slightly larger humans. The remaining ancient dragon bloodline in the blood becomes the original sin when put on the weak limbs.
…
"The bloodline of ancient dragons is lonely. The ancestors of the tribe have always taught us this. People outside have malicious intentions." Freya said.
"It seems that the education of your ancestors was not very successful." Milo raised his chin and glanced at Freya: "I mean, you didn't look the same when we first met. The meaning of prevention.”
"I... uh, I forgot for a moment... I mean, it turned out that my feeling was right. You saved me so many times later." Freya hesitated, and with her brain circuitry in a short time I can't make up any decent reason.
So the topic could only be changed quickly.
"So are you going to find that... city shrouded in darkness?" Freya asked Milo, staring at the bonfire.
“I don’t know.” Milo smiled bitterly and scratched his head: “To be precise, it’s more about looking for talents.”
“People?”
"There are many people, uh, not many actually, but they are very important to me." Milo said, staring blankly at the fire.
"Can I come with you? There may be a flying dragon that can make it easier to find the city. Oh no, that seems to cause you more trouble..." Freya He scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
“Didn’t you say you were going to the Northern Continent?” Milo suddenly remembered what Freya had said before about the mission.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa but, I forgot my mission again. No wonder the elders always say that it’s a huge regret that the ancient dragon bloodline awakened on me, ugh~” "
"But didn't you say before that you wanted me to kill the Spider God of the Zhongbei Continent as a reward for saving my life?" Milo suddenly mentioned.
"Oh, you're kidding." Freya waved her hands repeatedly: "This is a mission that no one in the Xi human race has been able to complete for thousands of years. I was just joking at that time."
Dan Mai Luo didn't seem to be joking: "No, what would I do if you flew there first? I don't know where the Zhongbei Continent is, and the elders of my tribe have said that if humans violate their oaths, they will be It's ten centimeters shorter."
"It's so serious! How many centimeters do you have left? Will it affect your reproduction?" Freya actually believed it.
But this "a few centimeters left" Milo never expected.
"Uh... it should be affected."
"Then what should I do... Oh no, no, no, I'm talking nonsense again, mentioning the Spider God. I'm sorry, little cutie, I really didn't mean to harm you. I didn't know you humans still have this kind of curse. ." Freya regretted.
"No, I haven't broken my oath yet, so for the time being, I'm still cute at normal size and haven't become smaller." Milo's expression was dull.
"That's good, that's good, but how can you kill the Spider God? It's not going to be shorter in the future." Freya frowned, and then an idea suddenly came to her: "Oh I get it! You can have sex with others before you become short, so that you can leave your own offspring. Isn’t this the case? "
"Is it possible that humans are reproducing offspring? There is no such urgent need," Milo explained patiently.
“Oh, that’s right.” Freya then realized that she had taken it for granted and put humans into the thinking of an endangered group like the Xi people: “So it’s more about purely enjoying the pleasure of coitus. ”
"Well, if it were ten centimeters shorter, there might be no pleasure." Milo nodded.
“That’s very serious!” Freya looked solemn.
"Yes, that's right."
"So what should we do?"
"The only option is to kill the Spider God."
"It seems like this is the only way."
…
(Spider God: Gan!
…
…
In the next few days, Milo and Freya kept traveling southward along the Zulu River.
For the ten centimeters that determine happiness, the two finally reached a consensus that they would not separate for the time being and walk together until they found the city that Milo was looking for.
Do you still remember the original words of Joan Byrne, the Blade of Law?
——
“The Thinking Eye saw many tired souls coming from the waking world... It also said that a city shrouded in coldness stood up in a corner of the dreamland, It is the creation of some dreamer...it makes no mention of your arrival..."
Although Milo has always questioned the intention of the Thinking Eye, he must verify the authenticity of the messages from it anyway, because if those tired souls in the waking world really enter the dreamland, then the only way to bring everyone together is to The only thing that was gathered together again was the city in his memory...
So he needed Freya's dragon wings.
