A mythical creature that looks like a giant earthworm and the village that has been with it for hundreds of years...
Griffith experienced the feeling, and it was difficult to empathize with it. However, he could understand it to some extent. From the perspective of the earth-burrowing demon insect, humans are humans, and they have been busy near it for hundreds of years.
What changes have occurred; but from the perspective of the villagers, their gratitude and friendship to the earth dragon may have been forgotten over the years, and the ancient guardian finally turned into a giant earthworm that could not walk around and could not communicate.
Hundreds of years from now, big trees will grow next to my tombstone. How will my descendants view Galadia? What kind of life will she have in the years to come? For her
, what kind of memory will I become...
Griffith stood there silently. Miss Elf also said nothing after telling the memory of the earth worm.
They are like two sculptures, thinking about their own things.
It wasn't until the icy chill rose from his feet that Griffith looked down and found that the clear water had reached his ankles.
"Quickly, find a door panel or a tree trunk or something," Galadia shook her head, as if to drive away some thoughts, and put the emerald into Griffith's hand, "The sealed object is disintegrating, I remember you said this
In reality it's a reservoir."
After being reminded, Griffith hurriedly searched around the altar and only found a large piece of wooden board that could float on the water in a nearby hut.
The water coming from an unknown source rose higher and higher, and even the higher hills were quickly submerged. Those living corpses that followed Griffith for a short time were almost all destroyed, leaving only the huge butcher living corpse.
.
It was a little different, staring at Griffith and the emerald in his hand, slowly approaching, reaching out to the emerald, and then disintegrating into pieces.
The cold flood flooded the place. Griffith put the elf on the wooden board and went up to try it himself.
“No, no, it’s going to sink!”
Griffith found that he could not carry two people. With a painful look on his face, he threw away his double armor, most of the weapons and supplies, leaving only his shield and corrupted feather sword, potions, potions, and the remaining chocolate in a small bag.
Throw the plank on, soak yourself in the water and push forward.
The black dome that shrouded the sky has disappeared, and the cold water surface is like a smooth mirror under the moonlight. The world shows its original appearance of a calm and silent reservoir.
Galadia looked into the distance and pointed out the direction like a captain: "Come on, Griffith, swim out and we will win!"
The icy chill enveloped Griffith, and the coolness of the early spring night even covered his face with a layer of white mist. At first, he just felt that the water was a little cold, but with the exhaustion of physical strength and the prolongation of time, Griffith felt that Si began to find it difficult to even breathe.
This reservoir is astonishingly large. Although Griffith's superhuman physique allowed him to persist for a long time, he gradually felt his body temperature drop.
The shore seemed as far away as it would never come... He felt that his brain was about to freeze, and his feet paddling under the water became increasingly heavy.
Galadia immediately noticed something strange about him, stretched out her hand and held the back of his cold hand: "Come up quickly, I will replace you."
"Your physique won't last long," Griffith shook his head, "I'm okay."
The elf girl's fingers were slender and very beautiful. Griffith, who was quite cold, admired these hands in a daze, and unknowingly felt a hint of warmth.
His consciousness cheered up a little, and his frozen body seemed to become more flexible in a trance.
Griffith screamed in his heart that something was wrong. People who have been immersed in cold water for a long time will not feel the pain and chill for a short period of time. This is a dangerous sign.
Am I going to die here? Griffith swam hard. The shore was still thousands of meters away, and he could no longer hold on.
“There are some strength-enhancing potions in my package, but drinking them now may accelerate the lowering of body temperature,” Griffith’s brain was unusually calm. “Chocolate, give me some chocolate. This military food can supplement calories.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the small bag thrown on the wooden board.
The girl panicked when she heard this, hurriedly opened the chocolate paper package and handed it to his mouth.
.
"ah!!!"
Suddenly, Galadia, who was in a hurry, accidentally dropped all the chocolates into the water. Seeing the loss of his treasure, Griffith almost breathed his last breath sadly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The elf almost cried, her picturesque brows full of anxiety. If Griffith hadn't stopped her, she would have jumped into the water.
The lake water in early spring is so cool.
By the time he finally reached the shore, Griffith was already too cold to breathe. He saw the elf rushing onto the shore with a whoosh, hurriedly jumping into the grass to find stones, rushes and branches and starting to light a fire.
She was not good at this at all, her hands were still wet from the cold, and she failed to light a fire several times. Griffith, who was lying on the shore, was almost silent.
Galadia prayed to all the gods she could think of, and the Queen of Silver Moon and Starlight who cared for her didn't seem to care about lighting fires. She recited the true names and rituals of many great good and lawful beings, and there was no response to her chaotic prayers.
No. She was so angry that she began to curse, starting from the Holy Light, the lucky owner, to the god in charge of the stove and wine making.
“Bang~!”
The small flame finally lit up the darkness of the night. The elf lady didn't know how many gods she had to scold before she succeeded. She was so happy that she almost knelt down and kissed the soil. She hurriedly lit the nearby branches, and then
Thinking of taking off Griffith's soaked clothes.
…
It’s a bit strange~Reflection is such an experience. I’m not cold anymore and my strength is recovering.
Griffith moved his eyelids and felt that he fell asleep for a while. He was covered with a half-dry hunting jacket. In addition to the warmth of the campfire, there was also a beautiful body temperature and a warm and jade-like touch.
He felt a reassuring heartbeat on his arm.
“Is this better?” Galadia leaned close to him.
Griffith immediately realized that the feeling in his body was not the effect of a flashback.
He bounced up like a spring and quickly glanced at his companion.
Galadia was only wearing tight-fitting single clothes, and her slim body was lying next to him.
Griffith's heart almost jumped out of his chest.
Seeing that he had regained consciousness, the elf happily sat up, covered himself with the half-dry coat, and smiled softly: "I'm so hungry, do you still have something to eat?"
Griffith shook his head regretfully. The food had long been lost along with most of the weapons and armor, and there was no more chocolate!
There was a sudden astonishing disturbance in the air, as if a transparent and illusory door had been torn open. In front of the two of them, Sidious's figure was gradually becoming clearer.
The son of the Canaanite governor appeared in front of the two men wearing fine armor, a sword at his waist, and a silver-white luxurious robe.
“Brother, you are finally here!” Galadia said happily, “Every time you talk so loudly, in the end you still come so late.”
No, it came so quickly, it turned out to be a teleportation spell that does not require the assistance of the target location! I have never even heard of it. Can the magic power of Canaan and Sidious be so strong? Griffith was a little nervous
thinking.
Before Sidious could say hello to his sister, he was shocked to see that Griffith was almost naked, and then looked at his sister who had just stood up from him and was also not properly dressed.
Storms and thunderclouds instantly surged out of the high-level elf mage's stunning appearance. The astonishingly powerful orb rotated around Sidious. His anger almost turned into flames, and Griffith was about to be burned to death.
“Damn bug, you have to pay the price for Galadia’s reputation.
"I want you to regret coming to this world. Even being a goblin in your next life will be better than this experience."
Galadia pushed away the somewhat bewildered trainee knight and asked him to turn around. She said to her furious brother, "Stop being so nagging, quickly take off your robe and give it to me, and get all the cocoa crisps."
Hand it over!"
Sidious quickly put on the robe on his sister, then took off the belt around his waist and tied it on her. Galadia took out the biscuits and ate them, and gave one to Griffith.
“Where is this?”
“The lakeside not far from Varna is within the original coverage of the sealed object,” Sidious said. “The vision has been lifted. I will take you to the nearby mage tower to rest.”
“Well, Griffith, where are you?”
"I went to report to the nearby military camp. The mission is completed. I still have time to rush to the old town to meet up with Sonia and the others." Griffith thought for a moment, "Please give me a ride. The army here may try to kill me."
"
"No problem, we will go with you!" Galadia immediately replied, "Brother, give him your mail."
“It can’t be done. (It can’t be done.)”
Griffith and Sidious said together.
Galadia first glared at Griffith, then looked at her brother eagerly: "Do you want to take it off yourself or do you want me to do it?"
…
Although Sidious arrived quickly, the three of them still had to walk to the nearby military camp.
Without advance arrangements and sufficient supplies, even a transcendent like Sidious would have greatly reduced mobility after the teleportation is completed. He must have many ways to rush on his way, but he would have to bring Griffith and No.
There is no other good way for the sister who is equipped.
Some strange things began to appear on Galadia. She became very tired, groggy, and seemed to fall asleep at any time.
This is one of the symptoms that may occur after the trial is completed. She has gained more power, but her body has not adapted yet.
"You rest here for a while," Sidious cleared a piece of clean grass and let his sister lie down. Galadia immediately fell asleep.
Not knowing what to do, Griffith looked at Sidious nervously and awkwardly.
“Come here, I have something to tell you.” The high-level elf wizard seemed to be talking to a bug, resisting the urge to pinch his nose.
Griffith followed him and moved uneasily to the lake not far away.
"What did you do to Galadia?" Sidious said coldly as he touched his sword, but he seemed more nervous than Griffith.
"Nothing!" Griffith said hurriedly, "I lost consciousness due to low temperature, Galadia took care of me, she just..."
"Okay, stop talking," Sidious interrupted, "Has she told you why you are here?"
"No."
This is also a problem that Griffith is concerned about. He can sense that Galadia has concealed important information about the trial from him, but she has been fooled by her several attempts.
ˆ Occultism is a rigorous theoretical and practical system. Although there are still endless unsolved mysteries, authoritative theories believe that the mysterious world is a world of universal connections, and there are inevitable connections behind seemingly accidental events.
For hundreds of years, this theory has been continuously tested by practice.
The encounter between Griffith and Galadia, the subsequent series of events, and the reason for appearing in this trial can all be explored.
“Huh, that’s ironic.” Sidious looked at him seriously, his deep gaze seemed to penetrate his soul. Griffith felt very frightened and even wanted to run away.
Sidious's eyes filled with disgust and disdain gradually turned into a smile. He retracted his oppressive eyes and said to himself like his sister:
"According to the prophecy, only when Galadia ventures alone in a place called Manisa in the Eastern Province will she find her destined guardian. In hindsight, that was you. The elf will be with her guardian in the spirit.
An exclusive sacred contract was made under the watchful eyes of her. You are destined to appear when she is in danger, and the reason behind it remains to be investigated."
Griffith was taken aback. It is no wonder that Galadia never explained in detail the true purpose and gains of her adventure near Manisa Village. Of course she would be embarrassed to say such a thing.
Furthermore, this means that Galadia will one day discover his contract with Sonia. Both contracts are exclusive!
Sidious did not pay attention to his expression and continued:
“Although it sounds ridiculous, you are the guardian revealed to her by the prophecy. Some of your yet-to-be-identified characteristics are of great significance to her and are destined to connect you two.
"My people are naturally aware of this problem. According to past cases and speculations, sooner or later you two will make some shocking scandals, just like the shameful and ridiculous scandals of Roland and my cousin Tidwexi."
A farce that ultimately harms Canaan's interests.
“Therefore, some of my people took action, and through careful arrangements, they sent you to carry out your fatal mission before Count Larmore noticed it without arousing the vigilance of Byerland.”
Griffith looked pale.
Griffith sometimes regarded the idea that the archon of Canaan wanted to beat him to death because of his daughter. He did not actually think that the archon would really do this.
You may hate cockroaches, but rushing into someone else’s house and setting up a trap to kill a cockroach is too much!
A smile flashed across Sidious's face:
“Hehe, you see, they failed. The moment I noticed their plan, I knew they were bound to fail.
"Is Iluvash's prophecy a backstreet divination trick? Their clever tricks finally sent you to my inexperienced sister. If it weren't for your existence and her simple and reckless character, it would really be impossible.
It is possible to die in the trial."
Thank you, you're welcome. This is what I should do. Griffith said in his heart.
Before he could finish his thoughts, a chill suddenly enveloped him.
Sidious's whole body exudes a terrifying aura. His eyes have lost their mortal luster, as if they have reached the origin of the world, even more powerful than the legendary dragon.
Griffith once thought about confronting Sidious. But under such pressure, he found himself as fragile as grass on the roadside.
Sidious pressed forward step by step and asked in a joking tone:
“Griffith, are you proud of what I said?
“Feel like the protagonist of a story, and a beautiful and innocent princess comes to your door without knowing it? You can choose at will among her and other flowers.
“Okay, don’t be nervous, Galadia doesn’t want me to kill you. It’s a trivial matter.
“You can continue to be the protagonist, and I will help you.
“It’s just that he is not the male protagonist,
“It’s the heroine.”
A sharp ice-blue sword appeared in Sidious's hand. It was the aggregation of lightning and thunder, a mysterious and irresistible broken steel sword.
"I'm here to help you, Griffith," Sidious laughed, grabbing Griffith's throat as he tried to escape, "Hurry up and prepare a new name for yourself, something nice and cute.
, suitable for beautiful female knights. I'm here to help you, open the door to the new world,
“Haha, after all, I am not a devil.”
