Scene 25 Fairy Country

Act 25 Fairy Country

"What a bold guy to claim to be a member of the royal family."

Her Royal Highness the Princess gently swept the silver hair from her temples behind her pointed ears with one hand, picked up the white porcelain teacup, took a sip and smiled.

"But the two moons shine together, and the king sleeps in the valley. What do you think this puzzle means, Lord Overwell?" She pondered for a moment, and then asked with a slight flash of her light silver-gray eyes.

"It is not an unknown fact that most noble families throughout the kingdom have some secret treasures. However, Alberton mentioned the oath with the royal family, so this treasure must have some connection with the royal family." Overwell After thinking for a while, he replied.

"I think it's not that simple. Lord Overwell, the Sage's Oath may be related to my ancestor Ek."

Overwell nodded: "The Emerald Lake and the Holy White Mountain should be referring to the Lake of the Goddess Jean Denel. I have long heard that it is the resting place of a sage."

"I see, do you have any explanation?"

"Local fishermen often hear rumors of seeing the Knight of the Lake in the mist, guarding the center of the Lake of the Goddess. Some people have seen the island with a whole white rock on it, which must be the Holy White Mountain."

"Thank you for telling me this, Mr. Fulwell, but what is a double-sided stone statue?"

"I don't know, Your Highness Princess."

"Yes, the yearning for mysterious treasures mostly comes from the unknown. This must be the fun of the so-called knight's story."

She covered her mouth and smiled: "I'm sorry for making you laugh, Lord Overwell."

"Nothing, Your Royal Highness, I am also wondering who that Alberton was before his death? Because no one named Alberton has ever served as a knight of the royal family." Overwell replied.

"Alberton may not have been called Alberton when he was alive." The girl thought for a while and replied astutely.

"I think so too, Your Highness Princess." Overwell bowed.

The half-elf girl stopped staring at the middle-aged man and confirmed in her heart that he must have done some research. She couldn't help but think softly, since in the eyes of others, this important minister around His Majesty values ​​that young man so much, he must have his father's intention. What abilities does he have that are worthy of your attention?

Is it personal ability?

accounting for part of the factors,

But that's not all.

I'm afraid he still took a fancy to the power behind that young man.

The princess couldn't help but curl her fingers and touch her lower lip. Is the Highland Knight really that important? Can it really make Eruin regain his glory? Unlike the local nobles and the royal party, she believed that the kingdom needed a new force to rejuvenate it. But where is this new force? Highland knight? militia? Or the police?

It doesn't look like it, but I always feel like there's something missing.

The half-elf girl thought of the young man and shook her head. It wasn't him either. She even vaguely felt a hint of danger. From the young man, she was slightly startled and felt a bit surprised.

Could it be that he was jealous?

The girl quickly shook her head.

"Your Royal Highness?" Overwell noticed the eldest princess's distraction.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Lord Overwell, please continue."

Overwell gave her a strange look and nodded.

The first moon sets in the west, and the second moon is reflected in the sky

Fog gradually began to appear in the fir forest, and the fog in the mountains brought with it a chill. Brando held the reins with one hand and looked around on the horse, confirming that the white stag was gradually leading them eastward into the lowlands.

A few minutes ago, Leto had come to tell him that Magus and his zombie army had stopped chasing. This is not surprising. They also noticed that their power was gradually declining, right?

There was silence in the valley.

When two majestic giant statues more than thirty meters high suddenly appeared in front of everyone in the valley through a thin layer of mist, even Freya and other mercenaries couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the indifferent and lifeless statues. The boulder remained silent for a long time.

Who would have thought that there would be such a scenery behind the remote valley. Through the light mist, it was as if the eyes had penetrated the shackles of thousands of years and fell on the huge rocks covered with historical dust.

For a moment, there was an inexplicable heaviness in my heart.

The colossus is wearing a long robe, a battle armor on the outside, and a battle skirt on the bottom. It is wearing an elven pointed helmet with wings on both sides before the age of sages. It holds a spear in one hand and a giant shield in the other, looking straight ahead. It is exactly the shape of the holy warriors in most myths. Legend has it that each of these warriors comes from those golden races. In the dark ages, they followed the Azure Knights to fight the Dragon of Dusk on the earth endlessly, and eventually they will Warnd was freed from the clutches of darkness.

In other words, they are the guardians of all intelligent creatures.

The refugees and mercenaries filed in from the foot of the colossus, and there was a sense of cleansing in their hearts, as if all the dirt and fatigue were washed away, and the whole person felt refreshed.

Many people even stopped and went back and forth to confirm whether they had an illusion.

Brando looked at these people and did not tell them that this was actually the words of the Holy Prophet among the Ten Laws of Wornde's top protective barrier. In fact, the effect of this barrier on people with stronger dark power is more obvious. Most people pass through this barrier. The spells enjoyed by the barrier are purity spells and physical recovery. Evil beings such as Magus and White Knight Ebdon will be influenced immediately as soon as they pass through this barrier, and their alignment will be reversed from extremely evil to extremely evil in an instant. Extreme justice.

However, as undead creatures, if they want to experience this effect, they must first pass the test of the fourteen-ring lightning strike technique on the spear tips of the two giant statues at the door. It is a divine spell. Not to mention Magus, it is probably Madara. The twenty-four Dukes of Eternal Death will also be beaten to ashes when they come.

After passing the giant statue at the entrance of the valley, the valley becomes wider and wider as it goes inward, and finally forms a flat valley bottom, with no edges visible on either side despite the patches of white mist.

There seemed to be some kind of creature in the mist. The white smoke clouds billowed, sometimes forming an angel with wings flying in the sky, a knight on a tall horse or a ferocious griffon, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

No one dared to stay too far away from Brando in this strange valley. The refugees consciously stopped talking one by one, staring nervously at the mysterious scenes around them.

The more Freya thought about it, the more incredible it became. Such a place did not look like a mysterious place that ordinary people would understand. But when she saw Brando, she was not surprised. She couldn't help but worry about gains and losses. Brando was so mysterious and unpredictable. Although they were fighting side by side now, one day she would really worry about such an ordinary person like herself. Girls will not be able to keep up with each other.

She couldn't help but frown and looked at Roman, although she didn't say anything verbally. But she knew in her heart that Roman's aunt must also have a secret of her own. Perhaps it was such a business lady who was worthy of Brando.

They are the ones on the road.

The more Freya thought about it, the sadder she became, and in the end she couldn't help but hang far behind and lowered her head.

Brando didn't notice the young lady's little thoughts, because he was dealing with Roman's weird questions, such as: "Where is this place, Brando."

"Didn't I tell you? This is the place where the saint's remains are."

"But you didn't tell me where the Saint's Remains are."

Brando couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. He turned around and saw Charles looking serious, knowing that this guy would definitely be unreliable at this time. He looked at the business lady next to him. She was sitting on a horse, dirty and covered with mud.

There is nothing that can be done about it. Who told the eldest lady to sneak away to learn horse riding by herself? When Brando knew about this, he was almost scared to death, for fear that his little Roman would accidentally kill him. Broken. Unexpectedly, when he ran over and took a look, Roman actually took a bundle of ropes and tied himself to the horse, and ran to show off smugly.

Naturally, Brando gave her a slap in the face and gave her a harsh lesson, so that she would know what she could and could not do in the future.

"The place where the remains of the saints are buried is where ancient kings and sages rest. They used their spirits to carve out a territory and call it their country. Here, all their people are protected, and outsiders will be lost forever. "Brando replied.

"Do you mean there are many places like this, Brando?" Roman asked curiously, squinting at his little face and leaning half of his body.

"certainly."

Brando sniffed and almost knitted his brows. He made up his mind to let this damn girl take a bath when he was out of danger. No girl could bear the smell of mud all over her body. Sometimes he really wanted to open the businesswoman's head to see how the brain inside was growing. of

"They are all called the Remains of Saints?"

While they were having a conversation, other people couldn't help but get closer. After all, everyone wanted to hear this young man's opinion about such a magical place. However, these mercenaries are a little curious, and this knowledge is not accessible to ordinary people. Some of them are well-informed, and it can be said that their knowledge is not much less than that of ordinary nobles. But they also know nothing about many terms used by young people. They just heard that this young man is a Highland Knight. Are Highland Knights really so mysterious?

But in fact, they don't know. Not only them, but also Ciel is a little confused. After all, as a wizard apprentice, his knowledge is not omniscient and omnipotent.

The land of the saint's bones is related to ancient legends. Even the wizards in the Black Tower are proficient in this knowledge. Not many wizards in the Black Tower are proficient in this knowledge. As far as Charles knows, I am afraid that there are no more than five people who know more about this than Brando. .

So where did his Lord's knowledge come from?

Ciel had some questions in his mind, but he didn't ask them. After all, at least as far as he knew, people who can see and use destiny cards are not simple people.

Brando shook his head after hearing Roman's question: "Of course they all have their own names. Every place where the saint's remains are related to the king who is buried here. Just like this place that is everywhere and everywhere. As far as I know, the name of the Misty Valley in the lowland swamp is the Land of Fairies..."

"The land of fairies?"

"The King of Knights is one of the eleven ancient kings. He was the guardian of mankind long before Gilt, the King of Fire. He made an agreement with the Fairy Queen. The Fairy Queen asked him to eat a golden apple and become the king of mankind. After his death, After the soul returns to its ideal hometown, it will rest here forever and continue to fulfill its commitments."

"This is a place of chaotic time. The night here tends to stand still relative to the outside time, and only the day time will start to flow again. According to legend, there is a golden apple tree in this valley, and the Fairy Queen lives under the apple tree. But no one has ever seen her. Of course, if mortals see her, they will never want to leave her."

He turned around and saw Roman looking at him with clear black and white eyes, with a clean face: "Golden apple?"

"You didn't just hear this, did you?" Brando's mood suddenly became half bad, and he couldn't help but asked angrily.

The business lady nodded seriously.

"Okay, little Roman, I won't tell you these things anymore." He almost didn't come back from his breath, but when he was about to reason with this business lady who didn't understand the situation, he was suddenly startled. , couldn't help but turn his head in one direction.

Everyone turned around and followed Brando's gaze. They saw a lonely tree over there.

What's this?

Brando was stunned.
