1222 Wardle

 "Okay." Angel nodded calmly.

He had actually expected that Wardle might come to him. As Bobota said, Wardle could not have no intention, but Angel didn't know yet what his intention was.

He went out alone, actually wanting to see if Wardle would show up.

It turned out that he was right.

Wardle: "Please follow me."

Wardell flew into the distance, and the dark wind in the acropolis blew his robes.

The dark night flight under Angel's feet flashed with a black and gold pattern. He tiptoed and floated lightly into the air, following Wardle as he flew into the unknown darkness.

When Angel left, Grewu in the stone room didn't notice it. He was still looking at Olucia's soul "affectionately" and murmuring words. But Bobota in the other compartment,

At this time, he raised his head and looked through the cloak at the situation outside the window. It was not until Angel's figure disappeared that Popota lowered his head, and an inaudible sigh escaped from the air.

After flying over the gloomy Acropolis filled with skeletons and undead souls, Angel was taken outside the city by Wardle.

That is where the throne and the bone pile are located.

A lone lamp emitting dim yellow light stood on the top of Gudui Hill. When the wind blew, the light of the fire swayed, illuminating the already dim area with ghostly shadows.

After Wardle arrived here, he stopped and stood quietly beside the pile of bones, without speaking for a long time.

Angel didn't know what Wardle was up to, so he could only remain unchanged in response to changes. He stood aside and waited for Wardle to speak out.

When I first arrived, all my attention was attracted by the Phase Gate in the sky, but I didn't take a closer look at the place. Now that I looked at it again, Angel found some weird places.

Why is the throne placed outside the city?

According to common sense, the throne is the symbol of the highest power, shouldn't it be placed at the core of the Acropolis?

Also, why is there such a hill of bones piled up deliberately outside? Moreover, a solitary lamp does not illuminate the throne, but instead quietly illuminates the hill of bones.

Seeing Angel's eyes on the pile of bones, Wardell suddenly said: "Are you curious about these bones?"

"I'm just curious why they are piled here." Angel said matter-of-factly.

Wardell smiled and said it was laughter, but what came from under the mask was only the sound of "laughing" but no emotion of "laughing".

"This is their wish, and it is also my wish." Waddell slowly turned around, picked up the lone lamp on the bone pile, and quietly illuminated the mountain of bones.

"These bones include my ancestors, my relatives, my lover, and my friends." The lights flickered, covering the original totem on Wardle's mask with a layer of dim yellow light, adding to his

The faint words were like seeing the souls from the ancient era slowly stand up in this pile of bones. They are all lives related to Wardle, but now except Wardle is still alive, everyone else has disappeared in time.

This pile of bones is the only thing left in the river.

"Almost all of them died in the battle, guarding Hangu Acropolis and fighting until the last moment. And those who killed them included the invading demons, the strongest among the demons, and even... you humans."

"Sorry." Angel said softly.

"Your Excellency, the Savior, does not need to apologize for this. This has nothing to do with you. Those are ancient things. It has been a long time. I have long forgotten all the hatred and resentment. However, among all the offenders,

You humans, at least in the eyes of us aboriginals, are transparent and come after profit. As long as there are interests, you can even turn against us."

Wardle recounted the past in a calm tone: "For them, in order to continue the glory of Hangu, dying in battle itself is also an honor. During their lifetime, they guarded the last acropolis of the aboriginal people; after their death, they also

The gate of the acropolis is guarded and guarded. This is their own choice."

"For me, seeing their skeletons will make me reflect on myself. So, I put the lamp on their skeletons and remind myself all the time that they are watching me there."

When Wardle said this, he turned to look at Angel: "Are you interested in hearing my story?"

Angel was stunned for a moment and immediately understood that Wardle was probably about to get to the point.

Thinking of this, Angel nodded: "Okay."

Wardle pondered for a long time and then slowly said: "I was once the king of Hangu Acropolis."

"But compared to them." Waddell pointed to the pile of bones: "But I am a coward who is afraid of death, so I thought of a way out early. I chose to share the joys and sorrows with the continent, and completely integrated myself with this continent...

…”

"...Because of the Phase Gate, or other struggles for interests, after experiencing countless wars, I, a timid person, survived."

"I was complacent at first. It wasn't until I saw my former fathers, my lover, and even my descendants grow old and die that I began to wonder if my choice was wrong. Later, when the ancient times passed, what was left was

Not many indigenous people left here, leaving only this lonely ruins. At that time, I suddenly realized that my choice may have been wrong."

"A wizard once asked me to use the Phase Gate, and I agreed. The condition I made was that I wanted to get the answer to a question."

"I asked him, every wizard seems to be pursuing endless life, what's the point of that?"

Waddell looked at Angel: "Do you know how he answered?"

"We are just exploring the truth." Angel said softly.

Waddell nodded: "Yes, he answered me the same way. I asked him what truth is, but he laughed and didn't answer. Later I thought about it for a long time. I don't know if what I understood is correct, but I guess that truth may be

A vision is a motivation that inspires wizards to move forward, and it is an elusive obsession."

Wardle looked at Angel, as if he wanted to get the answer to "what is truth" from Angel's mouth.

"Everyone has a different way of pursuing the truth." Angel replied. Whether what Wardell said is correct or not has nothing to do with him. The truth itself exists in his own heart.

Wardell shook his head and did not continue talking about the topic of truth, but returned to the topic: "Unfortunately, I have no hope of moving forward."

Angel: "Because you will share weal and woe with this continent?"

Wardle looked deeply at Angel: "Yes, I personally ended my hope of moving forward. If the continent overturns, I will die; if the continent recovers, I will also get better."

"The mainland's pan-consciousness is close to you, so I can't have any intention of attacking you."

Suspense flashed in Angel's eyes. There was no need for Wardle to say this sentence. He pointed it out specifically to reassure me?

"Without any hope of progress, I could only waste time in this lonely world. Until, I met you, your savior."

At this point, Angel already understood that what Wardle said next was probably the reason why he called him here.

There must be something you want.

Sure enough, after some preparation, Wardle revealed the purpose of the trip.



Angel returned to the stone chamber above the prayer church.

When he opened the door, Grave floated over. Grave turned into a ball of flame again, looking like a small fireball.

Seeing the doubt in Angel's eyes, Grewu said: "There are too many dead souls here. Although they will not come close to here, the cold wind is pouring in from the door. It will be warmer to restore the true body."

"You can close the door." Angel closed the stone chamber door casually, blocking the dark wind blowing from outside.

Grave also turned into a human body, a little dark but with a very delicate face.

"Because I don't know when the shopkeeper will come back." When Grewu said this, he suddenly thought of something: "Shopkeeper, where have you been? Mr. Olusia woke up for a moment just now, and I was trying to find you, but it turned out that

Found you weren’t outside.”

"I went out for a walk." Angel vaguely brought up the topic: "Is Olucia awake?"

"Yes, but he woke up for a while, said a few words to me, and then fell asleep again. The source fire seal made it difficult for his soul power to be transmitted. If he could..."

"What did it say?" Angel interrupted Grave, because it knew that if it didn't interrupt Grave, it would probably encourage him to release Olucia's soul.

In fact, Angel didn't think what Olusia would do to him after the seal was released. It can be seen from his willingness to hand over the "Eye of Light" to Grewu. In fact, Grewu could have taken advantage of the situation just now.

When he left, he unlocked the source fire seal, but it did not do so, and Olussia did not ask Grewu to do so.

This mutual trust has actually shown Aulusia's attitude.

However, in order to avoid trouble and take precautions, Angel still felt that it was better to avoid breaking the source fire seal as much as possible.

Mentioning what Olucia said, Grewu pursed his lips: "I told Mr. Aulusia about our current situation. It was fine at first, but when it knew that this was the Yuantan Continent, it

I don’t talk much anymore… However, it asked me to tell the shopkeeper not to provoke anyone or anything related to the Queen of the Hell, whether it’s Kulando or Garm, try not to have too much involvement with them.”

"Why?"

Grave: "According to Lord Olucia, even if evaluated by the Flameless Lord, the Queen of the Abyss is a terrifying ancient person who cannot be mentioned. She spreads the terror of death in the abyss and is a self-centered person."

The madman at the center.”

Even through Grave's narration, Angel could sense the fear in Olusia's words when talking about the Queen of the Hell.

Angel pondered for a moment: "I understand."

Angel and Grave talked about some unrelated topics and then returned to their room.
