Chapter 359 359. The unbearable imprint of friendship
Being prepared for a rainy day is a very good virtue.
Of course Ivy would not refuse, and gave Croya a special magic pattern.
"Having this magic pattern can prove your identity."
"This priest's name is Kassandra."
"She should be the only priest of the goddess Athena who can be found on the Ring of Creation now."
When saying this, it seemed to "look" at Miya several times intentionally or unintentionally, as if it meant something.
Croya didn't quite understand, but he still looked at Miya and blinked: "Teacher, you will definitely not reject me, right?"
The latter looked helpless: "She should be related to Medusa who was imprisoned in the Ark. They are different branches of history."
Mentioning Medusa, Croya immediately thought of her legend.
Legend has it that the priest of Athena was attracted by Poseidon, and then did some unspeakable things in the temple. The pure Athena angrily turned the priest into a monster with snakes for hair, and was later killed by a hero. The heads were chopped off and made into trophies.
How should I put it, it’s actually quite miserable.
Being forced by a god was already a very unlucky thing, but the god he believed in actually cursed him. If word spread about this, it would be a scandal against Athena.
However, he also knew that it was just one version of the legend, and that it was said to be a born monster - that's how legends are, there are many versions, but if you have to say it, the most bizarre version is the most popular.
There was Medusa in the Ark, and Croya wasn't too surprised. After all, Trayden had already complained to him about Miya's "evil behavior" of exploiting child labor and torturing him with Medusa.
"So who is Cassandra?" He asked curiously: "I don't think I have heard of her legend."
Ivy replied: "She was also a priest of the goddess Athena. She was insulted by a hero named Ajax the Younger in a battle. Finally, the goddess Athena destroyed the latter with Zeus's thunderbolt."

"In fact, Athena is a very protective goddess."
"She is even willing to use some special means for the mortals she loves, even if they are gods."
"Looking at you, it seems that Athena and Dionysus have a good relationship?" Croya's understanding of ancient Greek stories is actually limited to some basic and widely circulated stories, and he really doesn't understand the deeper ones.
"It's not bad." Ivy felt a little nostalgic: "I really want to taste the wine of Lord Bacchus again..."
“Isn’t the grape vine of the magic field the wine god’s.”
"Well... by the way, the grapevine didn't come this time."
Croya suddenly discovered something very important. This time he was trapped, and the vine did not appear - logically, it should come.
"Don't it love me anymore?"
"..."
Miya rubbed her forehead with difficulty and felt a little headache.
But He was really curious about why the vine didn’t come this time, so He asked: “Shall we go and see it?”
Croya pulled out the magic grid of the entire northern territory and glanced at it. He found that the magic wave of the magic field grapevine was actually at the same position as the sunflower and Pandora's light spots.
That's...
Location of Flametail Dog Farm.
"Well, could it be that dog?" Croya thought thoughtfully.
Ivy suddenly said: "I feel that there may be something important over there, which is friendship!"
……
The rain curtain that enveloped half of Norland Kingdom finally dissipated.
The pain of being surrounded by moisture and unable to breathe in the rain seemed to have passed. Sean, who was busy on the farm, exhaled softly, but was reluctant to let the rain leave.
He stood in the sunny farm, but his heart was full of hesitation.
It has been fifteen years since he came to the north.
In the past fifteen years, he has worked hard to build the Flame Tail Dog Farm. From the first time he arrived, he has now firmly established himself as the owner of the farm and received a commendation from Croya.
To be honest, he is considered to be the middle and upper level of Croya's power.
It is actually very good to have a generous leader who appreciates you and to be able to do what you like to your heart's content.
But he has been very distressed recently.
Because of his dog, Robert.
Although Flame Tail Dogs are Warcraft, they are only first-level Warcraft, and their foundation is not very good. In addition, they often go out to fight with him, and their bodies are seriously injured.
His once smooth fur has become dull, and his eyes have become a bit gray. He is not very active at ordinary times, and even eats very little of his favorite food. Sometimes he even responds to his calls. Slowly.
The amount of time he didn't walk was so obvious on his partner,
At that time, he was already keenly aware that his partner and friend who had been with him for more than ten years was about to leave. Of course, he was unwilling to accept such a result, so he went to seek help from many people.
Of course he can get some precious things with his status.
But in order to make sure nothing went wrong, he even went to Croya and got a few bottles of sunlight potions infused with the fountain of life from Croya. With these potions, it would be easy to extend his life.
But what he didn't expect was...
He gave those bottles of sunshine potion to Robert, but the latter fed it to his children. He taught his children extremely strictly, and it could be said that he took him with him to teach him almost all the time.
Its children were indeed quite ambitious and quickly learned all of their father's skills, so much so that when Sean saw it, he would always hallucinate the young Robert.
His heart became increasingly heavy.
Until the rain curtain fell, Robert suddenly left his nest made of velvet grass and went directly into the rain curtain. After Sean learned the news, his heart sank severely and he put down his work. I looked for it immediately, but couldn't find it.
Even when the rain stopped, they couldn't find it.
"Alas."
"Where are you."
"..."
Sean sighed deeply and was very reluctant to leave Yumu.
When he was in the rain, he felt that the world was only that big. As long as he looked for it, he would be able to find it sooner or later. But when the rain curtain left, he looked at the vast world, and suddenly he didn't know how to find his partner.
Even the usual feeling of being connected has disappeared without a trace.
"Can we just go back?"
He was very reluctant, but he also knew that if Robert wanted to hide, it would be really difficult to find him - this farm had been completely explored by him in fifteen years, and these flame-tailed dogs knew it better than he did. Every plant and tree here.
Just when he was about to give up, a strange magic wave suddenly came from a distance. It was a golden-red magic wave, exactly like the "sun" he saw falling from the sky just now. It was like guiding him.
In fact, he should be cautious, but for some reason, he instinctively followed the fluctuations of magic power and walked over, crossed a hillside, and then crossed a stream. It took a lot of effort to finally reach an extremely dangerous place. A hidden valley surrounded by mountain peaks.
This place seems to be only a hundred or two hundred meters at most, but because it is hidden among the green vegetation of the mountain peaks, it is full of vitality and has an indescribable tranquil beauty.
It is here that clusters of crystal-clear grapevines grow in the cracks in the valley above our heads.
They grow extremely luxuriantly, covering the upper part of the valley. They not only hide the place, but also filter the sunlight, turning it into a beautiful but deep paradise.
If it weren't for the guidance of magic, Sean would not have known that there was such a place here, let alone that the legendary magic field grapevines that nourished most of the human world were actually here.
After entering here, the mental connection that was about to be severed was restored. What the mental power conveyed was an extremely weak consciousness with the aura of death and pleading.
At this moment he took a deep breath.
Looking into the distance - there is a figure standing directly under the grape vine, seeming to be looking down at a slightly off-white red shadow below.
"Robert!"
Sean's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and tears flashed in his eyes. He wanted to run over, but before he could take a few steps, he was blocked by some hanging crystal-like grapevines.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
The hanging leaves of the slender grapevine were like a wall, and he knew that he would not be able to get past the magic brewing inside.
But seeing his friend not far away, he gritted his teeth and planned to rush over.
It was at this time that a golden-red light accompanied by a warm voice sounded: "It doesn't want you to see what it looks like now, Sean."
The sunflower popped up from the side. There was nothing I could do about it. If it didn't come out again, this guy would definitely bump into it. The Magic Field Grape Vine wouldn't care who you are.
"Master Sunflower!" Sean quickly begged after seeing it: "Just let me go over and take a look, just take a look!"
There was hopelessness and pleading in his tone, and he was not at all as high-spirited as usual, as if he would collapse if he rejected him.
But Sunflower could only refuse him.
"It rejected Eden."
"Rejected my grease."
"Even rejected his father's symphony."
The eyes in the center of the flower plate were fixed on Sean: "Do you know why?"
"Woo."
Sean's heart was full of bitterness and he couldn't hold on anymore. He squatted on the ground and covered his eyes and choked out. Of course he knew, he knew everything.
In the world of flame-tailed dogs, "needing to be taken care of" is one thing that makes them feel frustrated. They are fearless and will stand in front of their owners to block all dangers.
But they don't allow themselves to be taken care of - some disabled flame-tailed dogs will even self-destruct.
These loyal and brave partners also have the most "cold" hearts. As long as they feel that they are going to die, they will not accept anything more and quietly wait for death to come.
Perhaps in their eyes, their teeth are no longer sharp, their claws have fallen off, and their bodies have become old, which is already a burden.
Sean has seen too many people send away their partners. From that time on, he has been worried and trying to climb up, hoping to get a "miracle" in this world with his own strength.
——Cloya did give him this miracle.
But his partner rejected the miracle.
"Alas." The sunflower sighed slightly. It could feel the pain and fear in Sean's heart. Robert was not only his friend, but also his relative, and even his only relative.
But there is nothing it can do.
Robert has rejected Eden, the symphony, and its light, and he won't even eat the grapes from the magic field vines, but... why did he attract Pandora?
It felt strange and couldn't help but look.
I saw the god's clay puppet squatting next to Robert, who was already dying. His slender fingers gently stroked the latter's fur and whispered:
"Why?"
"You made a wish to me."
"Aren't you afraid of rain?"
As a puppet created by the gods, she is close to the gods in a sense. She can hear prayers and feel faith, but this is the first time she has felt such clear prayers.
She is hope, a hope that is covered, a hope that wants to hide. No one will like her, no one will even want to see her.
"...Woof."
Robert struggled to make a sound, then stretched out his head and looked at his master. After a few seconds, he lowered his head silently and let out the last "Woof".
Life has completely left, the grayness of death has taken over its eyes, and the fire burning with life on its tail slowly extinguishes.
Pandora, however, remained motionless.
It wasn't until a while later that she suddenly stretched out her hand and pressed her fingers on Robert's body. The gray feathers and rain curtain rose briefly, leading out a new group of red magic patterns.
If Croya were here, he would definitely be able to discover that this was what he saw in Sean and Robert, the seal of friendship that represented the connection between the souls.
At this moment, it has been completely formed, like a simple sketch of a young man and a dog side by side painted with childish strokes, lightly flashing with powerful magic.
Pandora looked directly at the crystallization of magic power and gently touched it with her fingers. The magic power that belonged to her and could cover everything instantly erased Robert's head.
Only she can erase the "existence" without affecting the integrity of such a thing.
"Okay, I promise you."
"You are the only one who prays to me, and you will be my only favored one, and the one who does not exist."
Then she walked slowly to Sean and leaned down: "Here, your friend asked me to give this to you."
The latter raised his tear-stained face, but his eyes became a little confused the moment he saw the imprint. He could feel that some memories were fading in the rain, and finally disappeared completely.
The crystal condensed from blood and magic power in his hand shone brightly, and was as warm as the furry and warm little guy on countless nights.
But...
Who is the little guy?
Who is... Robert.
Sean's mouth opened wide. He didn't know why he was crying, but he felt like crying very much. Only Pandora's retreating figure remained in his gradually blurred vision.
"It asked me to tell you that it also wants to be selfish. It has taught its own children to be like it, and they will be able to accompany you in the future."
"Just...forget it."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Croya, Miya and Ivy standing not far away.
The faces of one person, one ring of brilliance and one magic plant were quite complicated.
