As soon as Fang Yuan's body moved, it immediately triggered a joint attack of purple flames.

But he spun around the secret door behind him, only to let his head hit only the rotating stone door shaft. Fang Yu felt a huge earthquake behind him, and his footing was unstable, and he fell into the darkness in front of him.

There were a few steps behind the door, and he stepped on the air and fell hard. Fortunately, the steps were not too high, and he only suffered some skin injuries.

The thing was still banging on the door outside, shaking the mountains in the dark, and the sound of dust rustling overhead, Fang Yuan only felt the sand pouring into his neck and neckline.

He coughed heavily, got up from the ground, and didn't care about the dust, so he quickly took out a crystal from his arms and clenched the lower end hard.

The faint light of the magic furnace lit up the environment, and the space around it seemed rather narrow. Then the crystal in his hand also emitted a bright soft light, and he turned the crystal behind him to illuminate the stone door in that direction.

Every impact outside caused a violent shock to the heavy stone door, and a layer of gray mist floated on the surrounding walls. It's just that the stone gate is nearly two meters thick, and it is not scathed at all under this impact.

Fang Yu raised the crystal, and then looked carefully at the four corners of the stone door, only to see that the black insects under the gap did not have the intention of penetrating in, and then he completely relaxed.

But he didn't dare to stay longer, and when he turned around, the light of the crystal in his hand extended into the depths of darkness - the use of light crystals required the injection of magic power, and there were concerns about detecting spell discoveries, but in the depths of the earth, there were not so many concerns.

There seemed to be a corridor ahead, and the space of the corridor was only as high as him, and even he had to be slightly short to not touch his head, and the left and right were only the width of three people.

I don't know which direction this road leads.

Behind the secret door was a secret passage, which was not unexpected, but Fang Yu suddenly remembered:

The previous hall was already under the stairs, one level deeper than the tunnel above. And the height difference is not marked on the log, if the secret door above is on this level, does it mean that there is actually a deeper dungeon below Idus?

The thing outside the door had not yet left, and the tremors came from behind him, but after walking for a while, the tremors had gradually subsided. Fang Yu's somewhat nervous mood gradually calmed down, and then he remembered something, and hurriedly took out his communication crystal - but he immediately found that the communication crystal was broken in the previous impact, or if there was some magic prohibition under this ground, and it couldn't be lit.

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly opened the Elector System, and a window with a faint fluorescence appeared in his field of vision as scheduled, showing his physical signs, and his state was quite stable, but he was slightly bruised.

The system is still working, but the community can't open it.

"What's going on, Miss Tata?"

"The crystal isn't damaged, but the communications seem to have been disrupted, Mr. Knight." Tata emerged from his shoulder, a lazy look on his face, and a few pages of windows flashed through her green eyes, and then she answered.

The tone was as flat as boiled water.

Fang Yu couldn't help but complain: "This otherworldly communication is really difficult to use, and the fee is so expensive. ”

"Papa."

After some tossing, Nini also woke up and reached out to him to hug him.

But Fang Yu was in no mood to pay attention to this little girl, and only perfunctory two sentences to her, making the latter look extremely aggrieved.

The road in front of him seemed to be endless, and Fang Yu was a little worried, and summoned an angel to block the front. Tata had been checking the communication on his shoulder, but he didn't say anything for a moment, and there was an unusual silence between the two.

Nini probably saw that her 'sister' and 'Papa' had something to do, and she was only one with her head down and her hands playing with the corners of her clothes, well-behaved and quiet.

I don't know how long I walked, Tata's long eyelashes blinked slightly, and suddenly said, "Okay." ”

She said yes, she meant that communication had been restored, but only to open the community, and still couldn't contact Sylved and Attila. And even then, it's intermittent.

It feels like the interference with the communication has diminished somewhat, but it's still there.

Fang Yu was picking up the log and comparing it to the map in the light of the crystal, and the road on the map also extended forward, in fact, the direction was the way they came, which meant that he might be directly below them now.

If Sylvid had escaped, they might still be on top of him.

However, Fang Yu didn't have the idea of shouting two voices to the top, not to mention whether it could be transmitted through the thick rock top, and who knew if there would be something terrible in the darkness ahead.

After the previous encounter, he didn't dare to underestimate this place at all, what was the 'nightmare' and why it was here. What was the ash, and why was it with the purple flame?

God knows what's going on beneath Idus.

It's just that at this time, Nini, who has always been well-behaved and quiet, suddenly raised her head and said to him in a milky voice: "Papa, song." ”

Fang Yu was slightly stunned.

"Papa, sing." Nini said it again.

Fang Yu heard it clearly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was in no mood to sing at this time. But he suddenly reacted, Nini had never heard him sing, she had only heard Sky Blue sing, how could she suddenly let him sing?

"Nini," Fang Yu couldn't help asking, "Did you hear anything?" ”

Nini nodded earnestly, put her hand next to her pointed ear, made a 'listen' gesture, and then said to him, "Sky Blue, sing." ”

How could Sky Blue be in this place? Fang Yu was full of doubts, he looked at Tata, but the latter shook his head - Tata is a fairy dragon soul, and his perception ability is much inferior to Nini, at best, he is on the same level as him.

He looked ahead again, and once again slowed his pace forward, and the angel opened the way in front of him lightly, making a smaller movement than he did.

After walking about a hundred meters, Fang Yu estimated it himself, and he finally faintly heard the 'song'. It was a timeless, long song, with a thin, graceful voice, not at all like the incomplete sound of the sky blue.

Only then did Fang Yu understand that Nini had only heard Tianlan sing, so she probably thought that only Tianlan could sing, so she would make such a misunderstanding.

The song came from afar, not loud, but very clear, as if it were haunting the human mind. This is almost like the song of the legendary siren, but this song will not make people intoxicated, Fang Yu listened to it for a while, and simply thought it was a little good.

He continued to walk in that direction. Strange to say, as he approached the source of the singing, the voice did not rise much, as if the singer was following him, gradually lowering the pitch of the singing.

After a few more steps, the road ahead suddenly opens up.

Fang Ou saw a hall that was almost identical to the previous square hall, except that above this hall, there was a skylight, and a soft white light fell from the window, reflecting a rock in the center of the hall.

The boulder, which had been part of the crumbling ceiling above the hall, stood alone in the middle of the hall.

In the soft light, Fang Yu looked at a young girl in a linen robe, half-sitting on a rock, one hand on her chest, eyes closed, and singing in a low voice. She had a very distinctive set of long, ebony hair, like a pitch-black waterfall, that hung down over her slender neck and down to her snow-white feet.

Fang Plover walked into the hall and seemed to alarm the girl, she turned her head, her long eyelashes blinking slightly—but Fang Plover could see clearly, the other party was still closed, 'looking' in this direction.

"Joshoud, is that you?"

The girl asked, her voice as good as her singing.

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, Jo Xiude, are you talking about the legendary dragon slaying hero? He was hesitating to speak, but the girl suddenly reacted, and she couldn't help but chuckle, and the laughter fell to the ground like a string of silver bells: "It wasn't Yoshude—I'm sorry, I've been waiting here for a long time, and every time someone comes, I recognize the wrong person again." ”

Fang Yu looked at the other party's closed eyes, thinking to himself that she couldn't see things, this girl was blind, and he couldn't help but feel a little pity.

However, he immediately reacted, the focus he should care about should not be this, who is the other party, why is it in the depths of the ground? She said that every time someone came, she would recognize the wrong person again.

Does that mean he was the only one here?

He couldn't help but look up at the skylight above the hall, where did the light come from, was it the surface of Idus outside? Not really, not to mention that this place should be at the same depth as the hall outside, and that it should be night on the ground of Idus?

He calmed down and looked at the girl.

The girl's appearance is a little good, and with her long eyelashes and closed eyes, it gives people a feeling of weakness. But Fang Yu looked carefully, but he faintly felt that the other party's appearance seemed to be somewhat similar to Sylvide.

He couldn't help but rub his eyes, and he didn't know if he was wrong, the feeling was not obvious, it was more like a psychological suggestion, fleeting.

"You're waiting for someone here?" He asked.

The girl nodded.

"Is the man you're waiting for called Josyud?" He asked again.

"yes, have you seen him?" There was a slight hint of surprise in the girl's voice: "He asked me to wait for him here, but I waited for a long time, and he never came back." I don't know how long I'll have to wait, can you tell me where he is? ”

Fang Yu was faintly surprised, he thought to himself, could this girl be a ghost from the Dragon Witch's era? But the ghost should be afraid of light, and the other party has no feeling of a spirit at all. It's a pity that he doesn't have any means to detect the undead, and he can't tell this even if he looks at the other party from a distance.

He took a few steps closer and asked, "I do know a Joshud - but he has been away for a long time, he is the dragon-slaying hero of Kaorin-Ishurian, is that the Joshud you know?" ”

The girl was slightly stunned: "Is it a dragon slaying hero, others have also told me so, it turns out that he really became a hero after leaving here." But did he tell you when he would be back? ”

The more Fang Yu listened, the more strange it became, and her heart was full of doubts - other people had also told her so, could it be that many people had really been to this place? But didn't they tell her that Joshud had been dead for more than seventy years?

He thought for a moment before replying, "If you really mean this dragon slaying hero, then he can't come back." As far as I know, he's been dead for many years, and I've never even met this dragon-slaying hero. ”

The girl couldn't help but laugh: "You are mistaken, Joshud will not die." He hasn't come back to me yet, he's always done what he says, and you know that if you know he's a hero, you know that. ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but be speechless, this logic is very good and powerful.

But there was a faint hint of unhappiness in his heart—he was probably sure that this girl must be the ghost of the dragon witch who had died in the plague of the dragon witch, and that she might have had something to do with Joshide during her lifetime, and that she had been waiting for the dragon slayer hero to come back to her.

But the outside world is full of vicissitudes, the once prosperous city has long since been reduced to ruins under the sand, and even the legendary hero himself has long been reduced to a dry skeleton in a hundred years. Only his sword remained, the dragon knight construct he had rested quietly on top of the Van Rik Spire—

The story of the past is still being told.

And this girl, in the ruins under the dust, waits forever for the end of that story, and she may not even know the fact that she is dead, right?

"Kind stranger," said the girl, closing her eyes, "I've been waiting here for a long time, and I don't know when this place has become like this, and I'm not afraid, but can you please do me a favor?" ”

Fang Yu raised his head, looked at the other party and asked, "May I ask what you need to help?" ”

The girl pressed her stomach with her hand, her face was slightly embarrassed: "I don't seem to have eaten for a long time, can you give me some food first?" ”

Fang Yu was slightly stunned, does the ghost also need to eat? However, he looked at the girl's expression, which did not look like a fake, so he groped around for a while, and he actually had nothing to eat, only a few emergency biscuits.

He took out the biscuit, but the girl didn't mind, and came down from the rock. Fang Yu looked carefully and found that the other party had actually left a series of footprints - she walked barefoot on the dust, but she was not contaminated with a trace of dust.

The girl took the biscuit from his hand, picked it up and bit off a small horn, and then, as if remembering something, looked up and thanked him.

She said: "I really haven't eaten in a long time, about two or three days ......? If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't know what to do. ”

Fang Yu's heart was full of surprise, when he handed the biscuit to the other party before, he touched the girl's hand and clearly felt that it was physical - although it was cold, there was actually a trace of temperature. This completely overturned the previous assumptions in his mind.

Could this really be a living person?

But how is this possible, who can wait underground for a century, even if she can really live that long, she should also reflect what is happening outside, right? That's a bit ridiculous.

It was at this time that Fang Yu first heard Tata's voice coming:

"Mr. Knight, communication has been restored."

Fang Yu paused for a moment, and Miss Tata said again: "It's just that the communication crystal still can't contact Miss Attila's side, but we should be able to send messages through the community." ”

It was a bonus. He couldn't help but look at the girl in front of him who was munching on the biscuit in her hand, who looked like a treasure, as if she had never eaten something so delicious—though it was just an ordinary compressed biscuit.

And born out of the elf craft.

Fang Yu faintly felt that this place was a little strange.

He looked at the boxy hall again, and made sure it was exactly the same shape as the one outside, except for the skylight overhead. It's just that it is unknown what exactly is outside the skylight.

He resisted the urge to pull out a clockwork elf to find out. Communication had resumed on the community's side, so he could find a way to contact the others to report on the situation and see if Kita and Sylved had heard of the current situation.

At least, of course, he didn't fully trust the self-introduction of the girl in front of him, after all, the other party also appeared too weird-

He saw that the girl was not paying attention to his side, so he quietly opened the Elector system and entered the community. Sky Blue, Luo Yu, Ji Ta and the box These recruiters naturally have their own IDs in the community, and even Parker has been mixed in the China Division and has registered one, so everyone has naturally already added friends.

It's just that Fang Yu hasn't opened the friend bar yet, but he has been stunned for a moment, because after he entered the personal center, he found that he had an extra private message from a stranger.

The time on the private message was actually sent half a week ago, because it was a stranger, so it was judged by the system to be an advertising letterhead and swept into the temporary mailbox. And Miss Tata doesn't look at his private messages on weekdays, so she didn't find such a letter.

On weekdays, Fang Yu would probably turn a blind eye to this kind of 'spam', but after he inadvertently glanced at the sender, he couldn't turn his eyes away. The sender's ID can be said to be very simple, with only one letter:

‘R’

But just such a letter was enough to make Fang Yu freeze in place.

After he came to Aitalia, he changed his ID twice in the community. One time was when he first got the communication crystal, in order to prevent his identity from being exposed, he gave up his previous earliest ID and registered a new number.

The second time was after the Fenris incident, when he had to change an ID due to a broken communication crystal.

And these two IDs, according to his own habits, he first sent a friend application to his mysterious teacher in the community, 'R'. Of course, he didn't expect him to add him at all, because he hadn't been online since he last met R' in the community about two years ago.

The reason why he sent a friend request was actually just a habitual act, and after all, 'R' had taught him so many things, and he was still quite grateful to the other party in his heart.

If he had the chance, of course he really wanted to see each other again.

But he didn't expect that he would see the private message sent to him by the other party in the community at this time.
