The settlement of the Edwards family is located under the old cemetery outside the royal capital. It is said that the history of this cemetery can be traced back to the time when the Cangshi kingdom was established. But today, the repaired stone tombs are not only the resting places for the dead, but also the secret passages leading to the underground are hidden in a large number of tombs. At this time, Wang Du was in the alert period after the war. There were soldiers and security officers patrolling the streets and alleys. What''s more, the scene outside the city is no longer normal. If you swagger out of the city, you might be regarded as a madman.
By virtue of their familiarity with the city defense, several people under the leadership of Atticus did not attract the attention of the patrolmen. In fact, the chief knight was quite reluctant to do so. He did not think that the crusade against the Lich needed to be covered up. According to the iron Knight''s meaning, even if ordinary soldiers could not help them in the battle, they would throw arrows from a distance to clamp down the opponent It''s good. What''s more, it can give the soldiers experience they don''t normally get. Of course, this is just Atticus''s own mind, and did not say it.
As for why cheese did this, it was very simple. The mage could not believe the soldiers. If there is a lesson that cheese has learned from this series of experiences, then the cautious words and deeds should be at the top of the list. Jason and Edward, although the betrayal of the former is a trick performed under the guidance of Gelin, the rebellion of the ghouls makes the wizard really feel sad. He began to understand that the loyalty of his allies was not inevitable, so he preferred to have only a few secret operations than the elite soldiers of Wangdu.
"We can''t get out of the city gate like this. There is no dead corner for us to use." The old knight walked in the front and complained to the mage beside him. Accustomed to the formal combat habits, Atticus felt like a rat in the dark lane.
"We don''t need to walk out of the city," the wizard looked at the old man around him and shook his head. "All along, this city has not only belonged to human beings. The presence in the shadow will not use the gate of human beings. " With that, he motioned to the knight to change direction and lead the team to the dock area.
As the field of vision widens after the corner, the only waterway that flows through the interior of Wangdu appears in front of the team. The white fog was floating on the water at night. It was quiet and strange without the usual noise of sailors from the tavern. "Are you going to let us swim out?" The knight looked at the water. As the most remote corner of the city, the wharf area rarely passed by even the patrol team. According to Atticus''s understanding of Wangdu, there is no channel to lead to the outside world. The sluice under the city wall weighs a thousand jin. There is no winch to provide pulling force. Even wolf walker can''t lift it.
"Shhh" cheese will put the finger on the lip, indicating that the other party is quiet. His eyes swayed back and forth in the mist, as if searching for something. Heather, who was following the mage, was obviously aware of something. Her face was mixed with disgust, fear and helplessness, because the female Knight already knew what cheese was looking for. She could clearly feel something approaching several people in the fog because of her blood.
"Jingling" the sound of the bell came from the direction Heather looked at and quickly attracted everyone''s attention. At first, only a faint shadow appeared in the white fog, but as the shadow widened, several people found a boat rowing towards their shore. Strange to say, the bell hung on the bow of the boat never moved after it rang once, and there was no boatman on the boat. It was as if the boat itself was conscious.
"Is that the way out? I don''t think this sampan will get us out of town. " Atticus asked the cheese in a suspicious tone, with his chest in his hands. Indeed, although there should be enough space for a few people to squeeze out of the boat, the boat, whose boatman was almost level with the water when it was empty, did not look like it could carry so many people.
"Let''s wait and see." Cheese smiles and leads the way to the bow. Strange to say, the ship seemed to sink at any time, but when the mage went up, it only produced a slight shaking, and the shaking disappeared quickly after the cheese stopped moving. With the first man to take the lead, Jack jumped forward and stepped lightly on the boatman and stepped into the boat. Although he had full trust in the mage, wolf Walker was ready to fall into the water at any time.
The image of the ship overturning did not appear, although the werewolf''s action made the boat crazy to the left and right, the current in the river could not flow into the ship in any case! Lothar shrugged to the other two on the shore and stepped into the boat with his Tomahawk. At this point, more than half of the boat''s space has been occupied, but Heather noticed that this did not affect the draft of the boat. The boat was still in a state of unsinkable deadlock. Moreover, the female Knight looked at the bow bell and experienced such a violent shaking that it never sounded again. Atticus also noticed these, but the Grand Knight soon attributed the abnormality to the mage. He murmured and got on the ship. If he had known that such a strange vehicle would be used in this operation, the iron Knight might have carefully considered the necessity of joining.
"Ha" Heather sighed helplessly, and the last one got on the boat. As she sat down in the boat, the boat left the shore again without any power and drifted downstream of the waterway. At first, the fog was just a thin layer on the water, but gradually, the fog became more and more thick, diffuse to the chest, and finally completely submerged everything. Under the cover of the white fog, a few people can not judge where they are now. Besides the water vapor, there are only a few faint yellow lights, which are like overturned pigments and are blooming irregularly in the water mist.Wolfwalker''s quick intuition tells Jack that there are forces that are working on them. He wanted to open his mouth to remind people around him, but he found that his body was paralyzed and could not move in any way. "Don''t worry, it''s just normal." The voice of cheese rings in his ear, but the wolf man''s uneasiness does not disappear. You know, Jack is no longer the child of the hunter at the foot of the Dragon Ridge Mountain, he is the head wolf of the Alexander clan! Wolf walker is naturally immune to most of the magic, only silver tools can really hurt them, so how to explain his current state?
Shadow, huge shadow, as huge as a mountain, can not see the shadow of the top appear in front of the ship, that is absolutely not the wall, even if it is, it is not the wall of the Lion King''s capital, but the legend of a giant city. People facing in that direction soon noticed this, but their surprise could only be seen in their eyes. Like Jack, the count and knight holding a sorcery knife or Heather, who had awakened some ancient blood, could not control their bodies at this time.
The huge shadow approached and swallowed up the boat. Darkness enveloped the people from all directions. In this darkness, only the slight sound of water from the ship can prove that they are still on the ship, and the ship is still moving. I don''t know how long it took, maybe 10000 years, maybe a minute, the boundless darkness gradually dissipated, the feeling of depression like mountains on the body disappeared from the top of the team, and the white fog was in front of them.
"Jingling" ship bell, light ring. The fog seemed to be disturbed by the bell and suddenly spread to both sides, revealing vegetation and buildings on both sides. "Look, that''s the wall!" Lothar pointed to the rear of the boat and said to the others. They quickly looked back and saw that the walls of the capital had fallen far behind.
