Chapter 3214 The Nun in the Fifth Era
After finding the ring, Xia De quickly followed the three people in front with this thing. Seeing Xia De following, the nun walking in front continued to speed up. Because the witch disliked the man, Xia De did not say that he would help Teresa to help the strange girl, but just followed them and looked around vigilantly.
The wasteland in the fog seemed to be only four people moving forward at this time, but when you listen carefully, you could clearly hear the sound of tiny footsteps and incomprehensible whispers between the tombstones illuminated by the faint light.
There were no reference objects around, and the dense tombstones made people dizzy. The nun leading the way in front did not keep walking in a straight line. After turning a few turns between the tombstones and tombstones, and graves, five minutes after Xia De climbed out of the tombstones, a clearing of no tombstones appeared in front of the kerosene lamp.
The area of ​​the open space is not large, and there is a very simple stone hut with chimneys standing in the middle. I suddenly saw this in a place full of tombstones and desolate graves. If someone hadn't led the way, Xia De would definitely not have come close rashly.
Theresa explained softly:
"This gravekeeper's hut is the only real safe spot we have found on this wasteland. In fact, hiding in the grave is also safe, but there is a danger of not being able to sleep."
There was only one door and one window around the stone house. The window was lit at this time. Xia De followed the witches into the house and saw that it was the flame of the fireplace. The room was not space-specific, and it looked very small from the outside, and of course it was not big inside.
There is a fireplace on the wall on the right side of the entrance door. There is a half-collapsed wooden shelf in front of the entrance door. There is a window on the left wall. Under the window is a single bed covered with dirty bed sheets. There is a large wooden box at the foot of the bed.
As for the wall where the door is located, there is nothing in front of it, a fireplace, shelf, bed, wooden box, and finally the wooden square table in the center of the room and two chairs beside the table. This is everything in the narrow room.
Unlike the wasteland outside that is similar to the "edge of life and death", although the hut is still not a normal world, at least four living people feel relieved.
The nun and Theresa should have cleaned up the house a little, and the tables and chairs were wiped cleanly. Although the fireplace looked dirty, it was still useful. They even placed an iron rack on the fire with a pot cooking porridge.
The nun put the kerosene lamp in his hand on the table, and Teresa supported the girl who was rescued from the grave by the three of them, trying to lie on the bed.
But after getting close to the bed, the pretty young girl struggled hard. She didn't have the outstanding resilience of Xia De, and she is still tired and sleepy:
"No, no, don't want it there, that bed is so dirty!"
So Xia De helped change the sheets and the mattress that looked like a large pool of human blood stains. After the new bed with the smell of soap was ready, the girl was willing to lie down. But she was not unreasonable. At least even though she was weak, she still sincerely thanked the three of them in turn.
She called Xia De "strange man". The ladies present were all witches, so they must know what this means. The girl on the bed was really weak and had no intention of exploring this at this time. Teresa had known Xia De for a long time, and as for the nun-
She stood in front of the fireplace with her head slightly lowered, and her long shadow fell on the stone wall beside the window, trembling as the fireplace flares:
"You are from the future, right? The Fire-bearing Man?"
The hoarse voice is not without emotion:
"I felt the surging flame in your body. The power of the flame is far more complete and pure than what I have. First fire, the future hero, you helped your nun and collected the scattered flames and precious firewood, right?"
Although the voice was cold, Xia De felt a little impatient.
He glanced at Theresa. The blonde girl had already sat down on the chair beside her. Seeing that she nodded slightly, Xia De admitted:
"Yes, I'm not a person from this era. But please don't get me wrong. My lack of response to the Witch Curse is just an exception. It has nothing to do with the changes in the times. As for the first fire-"
He raised his right hand, and the slender flame rose from his palm. Teresa did not feel any abnormality in the flame, but the nun wearing a mitsilver eye mask raised his head and stared at it for a moment. The light and shadow left by the flame on her mitsilver eye mask changed, as if she was showing her mood at this moment.
The nun lowered his head slightly again:
"The power of the first fire is weaker than our time, but it is also more complete and strong. Your nun is about to collect all the fires that are scattered, right?"
She asked with some expectations. Xia De had already clearly felt that the nun in front of him was more extroverted in his emotional expression than the nun Deflin he knew:
"She told me that there were still three flames that could be restored to the most complete form at the first fire."
"It's such a good hero from Chenghuo who comes from the future. Please call me 'Miss Beren'."
Teresa's level at this time was the same as when she parted last time, and was still at the eleventh level, but it seemed that she was about to be promoted. As for this nun Beren, she was a twelve-level witch with an extreme limit of thirteenth level.
The young black-haired girl on the bed had not had time to introduce herself, but Xia De could see that she was only mid-level, otherwise she would not have been so embarrassed.
So these three ladies are Xia De's companions for the adventure of this time. He felt that this adventure was still very novel. At least this time, there was no need to sit around the bonfire. This time, the "safety point" was actually a house.
The time you can stay this time is forty minutes, but with the increase of the "Time Gallery", it is actually eighty minutes, so the time is more abundant than any previous time.
After everyone introduced their identities to each other, because they saw that there was insufficient food reserves for Teresa and Sister Beren, Shade shared the supplies he brought. Only when Teresa went to the fireplace to process the food, did they talk about the situation here-
Mainly Theresa is talking about:
"After graduation, I am currently following my aunt, who is talking about Teacher Violet. My aunt intended to ask me to seek a lecturer position at Sexys Medical College, and this time I led me to the Central Continent to dig a dragon tomb that was said to be left behind in the Second Age.
I don’t know what happened. Last second I was in the underground dragon nest and arranged a detection ceremony with everyone, and then I was suddenly locked in a coffin. After coming out of the ground, I encountered many strange things in this wasteland. In the end, Sister Beren saved me and brought me here."
While she peeled the carrots into slices and put them into the pot, she looked at Xia De gently:
"At that time, I was wondering if you would appear next, and it turns out that every time I encounter danger, you will come to save me."
She tried to suppress the smile on her face, but even the girl lying on the bed could tell what she meant.
As for Sister Beren's story, it's much simpler. She took the initiative to enter here, and she knew very clearly what it was:
"The believers of the old god [King of Bones] believe that as long as they are buried according to a specific ritual, the soul can no longer go to the end after death, but enter the tomb kingdom of the dead. I don't know what the afterlife of that great man is, but the vast majority of believers who have completed the ritual will ultimately be this wasteland."
She paused for a moment:
"Under every tomb we just saw, there is a soul who is unwilling to leave, and here it can stop them from reaching the end, but it is not what they want to enjoy the second post-death kingdom.
Some high-value special burial objects will arrive here with the soul as the "Tomb King Ceremony". I came here to find a flame as a burial object. Yes, there was a first fire and a mortal being buried together."
Those flames that split in the ancient era are possible wherever they exist. The flames that the nun recovered from Pantanal's Heart together, and the flames that the nun recovered on the "monster of the fire" in the New World based on clues are actually very easy to find.
The flames sealed in the "Green Island" lighthouse on the back of the material world, and the flames that blend with the demons of the fire, are the most difficult to recycle, otherwise the nuns before Sister Deflyn would have taken them away long ago.
As for the flames brought here as burial objects, the difficulty of recycling is certainly not inferior to the flames that Xia De once came into contact with. As for the wasteland itself, Xia De compared it with "Eternal Night City", which are both the kingdoms of a certain god.
Xia De trusts this nun who holds fire, just as this nun trusts Xia De, and does not even want to catch Xia De's wrist like other witches.
Theresa, who is making soup, is of course trustworthy, but her last companion
After listening to the nun’s story, Xia De looked up at the bed. But he suddenly looked up and looked at the terrifying woman’s face lying on the dirty glass of the window.
Although he was not afraid of ghosts, the strange fear from the bottom of his heart suddenly surged up. The girl on the bed noticed that Xia De's eyes also wanted to look up, but fortunately, the nun sitting by the table lifted up the kerosene lamp placed on the wooden table and shone the light towards the window, and the terrifying face disappeared.
"It's absolutely safe indoors, and there may be any situation outside."
The nun added softly, and Xia De asked the mid-level witch who looked better:
"You are not a believer of this [God of the Grave], because the burial ceremony appeared here, right?"
The girl shook her head quickly:
Chapter completed!
