Chapter 2507 Gossip
In snowy towns, the winter nights in the evening are actually brighter than in spring and autumn, especially in the Kingdom of Arcules (United Kingdom), a country with four distinct seasons, where the pure white snow Reflecting the light coming from the kitchen and living room, the entire small town was shrouded in a halo that was blurry and unreal.
With the curling smoke and the warm fire in the fireplace, you can always smell the aroma of roast chicken or bread when passing by every house. The elders of the town council are led by a Grom Goblin. , walking in the town On the narrow snowy street, I passed by a small building and saw a family of five sitting happily around a long table in the window, lighting colorful candles, eating homemade red sausage and pork butt, and the smiles of three children. The sound passed through the dining room and out the window.
Such a beautiful scene is what the elder has been looking forward to. Although it is like this every year without any changes, he, who was homeless in his early years, knows that stability and ordinary life are also a kind of good happiness.
He breathed in the heat and asked Grom to hurry up. After a few turns, he came to a dark house.
"Is this right here?"
The house is neither big nor small, with a red tile roof and only a single floor. The elder's window was covered with curtains, and there were no lights in the room. He thought to himself: "It seems there is no one. Have you gone to bed early?" He lay down by the window and looked in carefully, then stepped back and looked at the roof. chimney. On a cold day, people in towns usually light dark lamps at home when they are sleeping, and the fire in the fireplace should be burning, but this family doesn't have one.
He thought for a while, then walked to the fan-shaped steps in the door, knocked on the wooden door, and pulled the bell rope hanging on the door.
No one came to open the door, and no one heard any movement in the house. He slapped the wooden door hard again, making a loud banging sound.
The door opened, and an orange door-shaped light shone on his back. The neighbor opposite asked in confusion: "Who are you? Why are you knocking on the door at night?"
The elder turned around and pointed behind him and asked: "Where is this family?"
"You mean Hols? There is no one in his family."
The elder asked strangely: "No one? He Where is his wife and children?”
“He has always been single and has no wife or children. "The neighbor asked in confusion: "Who are you? Why are you looking for him?"
The elder said: "I am from the town government, and Hols was asked to help me. Explain the situation to his relatives. Is this No. 22, Seba Halls’ home?”
"Yes, doesn't it say that on the door number?" The neighbor saw that this man did not look like a thief and a bad guy, so he closed the door and went back to the house.
The elder scratched his half-bald head: "There are no wives and children. Is there a mistake on the part of the Iron Guard?" He shook his head and left.
......
In the earth vein layer full of vitality, the air has become humid, and the feeling of humidity has soaked into the clothes. Uncomfortability and uneasiness hammer into everyone's heart. Who can Really peaceful sleep?
Someone whispered, and Bronn was chatting with Hols: "It's so stupid that I didn't want to come down, but I came here in a daze. Hols, if you didn't come, you should be here at this time. Eat sausages in a warm house and spend time with your family. ”
Halls lowered his head quietly, and after a while said: "I really don't want to come, it's too cold here."
"Yes." Bron pillowed his head and yawned: " At home, there is a warm fireplace, the care of my wife, and my beloved children. It is not like now, in a place where life and death are unpredictable."
Shaw and Dior, Pétain and Acosta. They were also chatting, but they were speculating on the situation they might encounter next. Anna was a little absent-minded, looking in the direction she came from from time to time.
Fred was angry and complained behind Anna: "Do I hate you so much? Do you care about an outsider and you don't care about me?"
"Why do you want to change schools? Ice magic?" Anna was located far away from the others, and she deliberately lowered her voice.
Fred was a little surprised. She rarely took the initiative to talk to him. He was a little excited and happy and said: "I...I..." "Is it because of him?"
Fred said unwillingly: "You always say his name, over and over again, and you will whisper about him from time to time. His name. You...you and him..."
Anna thought for a while and said: "I rarely meet you, and I never mentioned him in front of you. You...are by my side. An spy was installed!"
"No, I...I heard what my mother said."
Anna stared at him with cold side eyes: "Don't try to lie to me, you are spying on me!"
"I..." Fred lowered his head and admitted: "I just care about you, there is no malice."
Anna said angrily: "Stop your behavior, what you do will only make me angrier."
Fred suppressed his anger and said: "Why? You would rather care about a stranger Stranger, you don’t care about me! If you care about him, I will try to make my face more like him. He is good at ice magic, so I will work hard to learn ice magic. Could it be that... I will never get your face? Do you agree? Why does he get more attention? Or maybe you have known him for a long time, or have a shady relationship!" He said the last words very seriously, and you could clearly see the anger in Anna's eyes. .
The people next to them also heard what was happening on their side. They must have been talking about private matters, and the others just turned a deaf ear.
Anna said with a cold face: "Don't talk nonsense. I have only met him once and have nothing to do with him."
"Then why..."
Anna heard a voice in the distance. Come on, stop talking.
The sound was caused by Elisa's guardian. Bing Zhixie and Elisa came back to join everyone. Eliza summoned her guardian Clo Chilin Borer Moth midway. When fighting against the Hydra Emperor, it was at the front and bore the impact of a large number of broken stars. After being recalled to the life space, its condition has not been very good, so it was called out again to understand its injury status.
Bore moths scattered phosphorus powder and flew above everyone's heads. There were hundreds of crystallization marks on their bodies. The open wounds flashed with fluorescent light. That was the borer moths fighting against the erosion of crystallization.
"Your guardianship is not very good, sage." Dio stood up and walked over.
Elisa looked up at the guardian: "It should be fine, but its condition is indeed not good." and told everyone what happened.
They also told Eliza about their discovery.
"That's right. The Paladin of Memphis is very likely to be swallowed up by the black gap." Dio said to Petain: "Miss Shirley may encounter the same situation."
Bu Long was startled: "Then... they... are dead? No way! Without a sound, people are gone?"
Eliza held the Holy Cross Sword in her hand, and it was difficult to express the feeling in her heart. She turned around and saw Bimoye with a sad face, and said: "No matter what, now that we are here, we must go on this road no matter what. It is just to save the people of the Bloody Mercenary Group, and also to save the whole world. The energy here , that is, vitality, magic and other forces, seemingly peaceful, but actually possible It is very unstable, and there is a possibility that they will collide with each other or tear apart to form a hole in the space. The black gap will appear again at any time. We must be careful, and when it appears again, we can understand more clearly what it is. " She cast light-based healing magic, shining on the moth and everyone.
Both moths tend to light and bathe in light, which is good for them, and this kind of bathing in light is good for everyone.
