Chapter 774: Void Eclipse
The sun can be so bright, not as dazzling as the desert, but it is more warm and gives people hope.
For the first time, Guli believed that sunlight was a symbol of light.
When he saw the Pope again, his attitude was much kinder, and he didn't say a word about Guli being wanted by the Holy Spirit Temple, as if Guli had become a distinguished guest.
Talking about some customs, historical allusions and other innocuous things, during which Guli also asked Lenny to show off her archery skills at the request of the Pope, which was naturally amazing, and soon, today's meeting ended.
Although she did not touch on the core issue, Gul was already satisfied, and the change in the Pope's attitude meant that every qiē would be possible.
Back at the residence, Gu Li was about to tell Tian Xian about what had just happened, but found that Tian Xian had left a note and had left.
"Be careful, stay connected. ”
Looking at the simple note, Gu Li snorted, "Stingy...... Ran away so early. ”
After eating dinner alone and looking at the sky to calculate the time, Guli called Lenny, "The guards tonight should be extra strict, but if you find a lone person sneaking in, let him in, don't make any noise." ”
Leni was strange, "Mistress, this ...... It's going to be dangerous. ”
"It's okay, I won't sleep. ”
That night, Guli put the sword at the head of the bed and waited quietly.
After nightfall, Gu Li couldn't help but think back to the days since he met Tian Xian in the Silent Forest, along the way, so many things had happened, in Cross Town, Thunder Ancient City, Longyuan Empire, in so many places, so many unforgettable things had been experienced together.
It's as if fate suddenly arranged for a teenager to break into his life, so abruptly, so unprepared......
A qiē is like a dream.
"Mistress, someone is coming. Leni's voice came softly from the window.
Gu Li sat up and clenched her sword.
The person who came was very light-footed, obviously with good strength, he bypassed the lion sentry and also evaded the elven sentry, and infiltrated the second floor where Gu Li's room was located.
The man, dressed in black, hesitated outside Gu Li's door, because a qiē seemed to be too smooth.
After observing for a while, the person was light ■◆ dǐng ■ ◆ diǎn ■ ◆ small ■◆ and said, .◆.∧os_ (); Push the door and the door opens silently......
The moment the door opened, the man's body froze, because Gu Li in the room was fully armed and was already sitting at the table with his sword.
"I'm waiting for you. Guli stared at the uninvited guests.
The man covered his face, his exposed eyes sparkled, and he looked at Gu Li's eyes: "What I want to see is not you." ”
Gu Li said coldly: "He has already left, leave everything to me to deal with, if you don't want to, you can leave." ”
The man thought for less than three seconds, then stepped into the room and closed the door with his backhand.
The room was dark, and the man was covered in a layer of moonlight, and he came to the table, and slowly removed his scarf, revealing a weather-beaten old face.
"Eugene, it's the first time I've seen you. Gu Li looked at the tall old man through the dim moonlight.
The person who came was none other than the Blood Alliance veteran who had fled in the turmoil at the Blood Alliance's headquarters, Eugene.
"I've seen your images many times. Eugene sat down, "Little girl, are you really qualified to talk to me here as a person from the Holy Spirit Temple?"
"If you really doubt it, you've just left. Gu Li chuckled, "If you want to waste your time on these boring words, I don't mind, after all, I won't be caught sneaking out to meet with people from hostile forces." ”
Eugene looked at Guli twice, "Well, I can trust you. ”
"Then, it's your turn to earn my trust. Gu Li stared at him, "What is your identity now?"
"There is no identity. Eugene's fierce face contorted twice, "Staying here like a guest, of course under house arrest, I gave them some information, of course it's all true, I haven't been suspected yet." ”
"Under house arrest, how did you get here?"
Eugene grinned open his shirt, revealing a horrific scar from his right shoulder to his left ribs, which was deeply engraved on him, and Gully noticed that there were traces of penetrating wounds on his shoulders and arms, as if they had been bound by huge chains.
"My injuries made them sure I didn't have the ability to escape. Eugene covered his shirt and mocked, "Of course they don't know, it's just a hoax." ”
"Then how do I know that you're not lying to me now? ”
Eugene sneered, "If it was that little ghost, he wouldn't ask such a question, and you shouldn't ask either, you should know best that the Holy Spirit Temple won't believe me, and I can't really take refuge in the Holy Spirit Temple." ”
"Speaking of which, I've already learned the methods of the current torture envoy...... Very usual. ”
Gu Li knew very well in her heart that Eugene had taken refuge in the Holy Spirit Temple, and it was impossible for either of them to trust the other, and now it was Eugene's serious injury and the information about the blood alliance in his head that maintained the delicate balance between the two sides.
"Well, it looks like we've all talked too much nonsense, now ...... Get to the point!"
Eugene snorted, "It's long overdue!"
By the time Guli and Eugene had a secret night talk, Tian Xian had already gone deep into the Silent Forest.
I didn't go to visit the four girls, because I was still more at ease with the four girls' leisure, and the kind of place in the Blood Alliance Headquarters was not like the Holy Spirit Temple that could be sneaked in, and it was really difficult to sneak into the current Blood Alliance Headquarters if they wanted to sneak in.
The reason why he was in such a hurry to come to the Silent Forest was to be sure of one thing.
Although the deal with Gustas has not yet been completed and the first shipment of gold has not arrived, Tianxian has already received news of the lake.
Of course, according to the protocol process, Tianxian shouldn't have gotten this now, but Luke gave Tianxian an additional message.
The water of the lake glows faintly at night.
This seemingly useless news is meaningful to Tianxian.
A lake that naturally nourishes nearby plants, and plants multiply outward, naturally forming a plant belt.
Many things in the Silent Forest glow, but the light is not the same.
There are still two drops of lake water left in the small bottle that made the lake water for Tianxian at the beginning, and it is releasing a strange faint fluorescence in the moonlight at night.
High in the sky, Tianxian looked around, and the entire silent forest emitted a layer of misty light except for the outer layer, and the inner layer as a whole, which was the halo of light gathered by the light of luminous plants.
Carefully discerning, Tian Xian quickly found the same light as the lake water in the bottle.
Turning the sky again, Tian Xian finally found a large number of plants gathering place that emitted this light, measured the direction of the wind, Tian Xian patted Xiao Gray's head, Xiao Ash roared, and went up against the wind.
The Silent Forest is so dense that only dense forests can be seen in the sky, and it takes careful discernment to see the hazy halos.
Still idle and sensitive, passing quickly in the sky, I can also see the situation in the forest clearly.
After a long time, when Tianxian was about to give up, his eyes suddenly lit up, "There!!"
In the dense forest, under the shadow of a hazy glow, an inconspicuous speck of light appeared there.
Little Gray roared angrily, his wings folded and rushed straight down, the storm drill around him pierced through the thick forest, and in a few breaths, his heavy body had already smashed to the ground with a "boom".
"I said Ash, let's ...... next time Can you land gently?" Tian Xian straightened up and twisted his crooked neck.
Xiao Ash roared twice, and it seemed that he didn't plan to pay attention to Tian Xian.
"What's wrong?" Tian Xian found that Xiao Ash seemed to be unhappy, "Don't like it here?"
Ash does not like forests, as it is difficult to fly in them, and especially dislikes forests without prey.
Tian Xian looked around, the surroundings were quiet, and Ding Diǎn didn't make a sound......
This is already the depths of the silent forest, where dangerous demonic beasts are rampant, and countless dangers hide in the darkness.
However, Tian Xian felt that the most dangerous demonic beast should be Xiao Ash, this kind of dragon-type giant beast with a length of more than 30 meters, it is estimated that no demonic beast will come to look for trouble without opening his eyes.
In the shade of the forest, Tian Xian saw an obvious light in front of him, "Let's go over and have a look!"
Xiao Ash was diǎn irritable, tightened his wings, and crawled forward.
The light in the forest gradually became stronger, and even to the point that Cheng Dù looked around like daylight, and when Xiao Gray stepped on a dense bush, what appeared in front of Tianxian was a lake that bloomed like crystal.
"Oh...... I found it!" Tian Xian was overjoyed, jumped off the little gray and came to the shore of the lake and grabbed the lake water in his hand, the lake water was like a piece of crystal broken light, shining.
"This is it!" Tian Xian carefully discerned, the water of the lake was pale green, exactly the same as the water he had obtained from Gustas before.
Raising his eyes and looking at it, Tian Xian found that the lake was not big, it could even be said to be very small, and it was better to say that it was a lake than a pool, which looked like it was only about thirty or forty meters in diameter, and it was oval.
The water of the lake was shining, and it was impossible to see how deep the lake was, but Tian Xian was sure that there was nothing strange in the lake, and the energy tentacles had already probed around, making sure that there was no life around.
Although an agreement has been reached with Gustas, this lake has long been in the bag, but it is strange why the lake can be smeared with water in the silent forest?
Is there a human element in this?
There wasn't enough lake water before, but now that the lake has been found, Tian Xian no longer has this worry, so he drew a refining array on the spot, planning to see what is strange about this lake first.
But it was only halfway through the painting, and the day stopped.
Raising his head and looking around, Tian Xian suddenly felt a kind of disharmony.
There seems to be something wrong with this lake.
Something that glitters in the dark obviously attracts many things, and the lake in the forest is naturally even more so, where countless creatures gather.
The surroundings were quiet, calm as if the air had died.
There are no animals, not even insects, Tianxian suddenly found that the animals around him are zero, in a place like the silent forest, where there are no insects, there is still a water source.
What's even more bizarre is that the lake obviously has no energy fluctuations, but now it makes Tianxian feel a sense of déjà vu, as if he has come into contact with something similar at some point......
"Kid, you've found a nice place. The flames of the evil eye jumped at the ends of the sky's hair.
"Is there anything wrong?"
"Yes, not at all. Evil Eye laughed, "Everything is wrong, and the living things around it have run away." ”
"What does that mean?"
"Hmm...... I'm not sure, the breath is too faint, this breath ...... It seems to have infiltrated from somewhere else, and the lake is just a façade. ”
"Appearance?" Tian Xian glanced at the lake, which could only be regarded as a large pool, frowned and thought for a few seconds, and suddenly reflexively jumped on Xiao Ash's back, "Let's go!"
Ash didn't seem to want to stay even a second longer, and his wings soared into the sky, and he was already flying high in the air in the blink of an eye.
Tian Xian raised his eyes and searched again in the hazy halo of the silent forest.
Soon, Tianxian had a goal.
The previous steps were repeated, and when it had taken almost half the night, the forest fell again when the horizon was already white.
Sunlight could not penetrate the dense silent forest, and even in the early morning, it was still pitch black under the forest, but it was as bright as day.
Tian Xian's expression was solemn, because he found another lake.
Like the previous lake, the lake was crystal clear and silent, not half of the animals were left, not even the vegetation was flourishing, and many of them had withered.
There is more to the lake than just one piece, and what Gustas found seems to be just one of them!
"What's going on?" asked Tianxian to the Evil Eye.
"I don't know. "It always feels familiar, but it's too weak for me to guess anything." ”
This feeling also exists in Tian Xian's heart, walking around the lake twice, Tian Xian has more and more a sense of déjà vu, as if he has touched this lake somewhere, and ...... It was at a very important moment.
But there is no doubt that the location of the lake was found for the first time today, and it was absolutely not touched before, except for the fact that he had painted a diǎndiǎn when he was really yàn.
This is a dead environment where even insects can't survive......
"It seems that there are other places like here. ”
"Possibly!" the Evil Eye seemed to be less interested, "but even if it is found, it will not help, there are too few clues, haha, maybe it is not a trivial matter at all." ”
"Nope. Tianxian's expression was very solemn, "I think...... It's not insignificant, and since there may be many lakes, where is the source of the breath that spreads its breath to them?"
"I don't know anything about it, don't ask me about water. The flame of the evil eye jumped and vanished.
"My master, are you worried?" the triangle floated out of Tianxian's sleeve.
"It's not just ......," Tian Xian gritted his teeth, "I have a very bad premonition......" (To be continued. )
