While the witches are overwhelmed by the monsters that suddenly appear from the walls, Seth sits quietly in the kitchen chair, pondering over the questions Hera has given him. From the perspective of behavior, he shows the patience and concentration that he shouldn''t have at his age. It''s not difficult to speculate on the reasons. The chaotic environment is the easiest way for children to grow up quickly. However, this kind of growth not only makes them learn the truth that they should understand when they grow up, but also enlarges and elongates the personality defects that should disappear with the growth.
This incident is reflected in Cech''s indifference to the value of life. He can give up his own life for a full meal, so don''t expect him to value other people''s lives. Of course, Hella is not included in the above sentence. The man who said the most to him in his lifetime has been regarded as some kind of idol by him. Even now, he will not hesitate to let Seth worship the witch. And since Hera has given him a question, he has to come up with an answer.
In the dark, the child held his head and thought hard. On the table in front of him was a candle, which lit up the kitchen full of food. It can be seen that the witches no longer regard a single room as a storage room, and Cech also finds that there is nothing in the so-called kitchen except food. But what should be in the kitchen? The poor little fellow had never owned a kitchen, nor had he been told of the structure of the kitchen. He only knew that the kitchen room had the magical ability to cook raw meat, which was not possessed only by witches. So this kitchen is not normal in Cech''s eyes.
"Dada Da Da!" There were only three living people in this fortress, and the sound of the footsteps, though rapid but not heavy, showed that the people who emitted it had a very light weight. "Miss HeLa!" Saih tried to shout. It was really Hera who crossed the corridor, but now the witch had no time to talk to the child in such a slow voice.
The daughter of the tomb reluctantly stops, looks at the saih who wants to get out of the kitchen and shouts, "stay in there, don''t come out!" Then he left along the corridor. Cech stood on the edge of the table, his head tilted, and he stood there. He didn''t know what he had done wrong and would be reprimanded by Miss Hela. After all, SAH, who did not have the ability of night vision, could not see the anxious expression on her face. Judging from the rapid tone he heard, the witch must be angry because she was too stupid to think of the answer to that question.
Think, think! Cech clenches his lips. He can''t live up to HeLa''s expectations, absolutely not. What''s more, I don''t know when the other witch named Karen will come to take her life. She can''t die without completing the question given by Ms. Hella! The only eye shed tears because of anxiety. This physiological phenomenon did not happen to Cech a long time ago, because from a long time ago, the child did not have enough emotion to stimulate him to tears.
There is another person who has long forgotten the phenomenon of tears. After all, since mountain monsters are named after the legendary monsters living in the mountains, they are naturally as resolute as those monsters. The silent gatekeeper could never see the change of mood. He only used his cold eyes to see everything outside through the gap of his helmet. He watched all the buildings and alleys outside the fortress. Even if there was a faint sound of waves in the distance, there was no relaxation. No one could bypass him and enter the building he was guarding. Unless, it''s the people in the building who want to come out.
"Gatekeeper! I need your help! " Haila''s voice came from the corridor behind the troll. The strong guard slowly turned around and put his back on the wall of the entrance, so that he could see the scenes inside and outside the corridor at the same time. Even if it is called by the witch, the troll is still on guard against anyone who wants to break into the fort. In his experience, those who didn''t get the chance to board the ship and refused to accept their lives would always rush into the witch''s fortress to win a safe haven under the pressure of the tsunami. The bloodstains on his black armor and the remains of his fortress suggest that this was no exception before the tsunami.
Haila ran closer, her pale face and abnormal flush in the fierce exercise, which made her words more convincing. But the gatekeeper still kept his side position, his cold eyes fixed on the witch, and there was no intention of moving his feet. "There are enemies in the fortress! You have to help! " Haila said to the troll that she knew that the other side was stubborn and could not speak in a few words. Otherwise, the sorceress would not appoint him to be the gatekeeper of the fort.
"Enemy, man?" Mountain monsters are not surprised at the presence of enemies in the fortress. Although the solid exterior walls block the entry of foreign enemies, witches can also make tricky opponents appear inside the fortress for a long time when they conduct demon summoning or other dangerous alchemy experiments. If it''s normal, witches will withdraw from the fortress and wait for reinforcements to arrive before destroying the enemy. But now the tsunami is near, even if the call for help signal, the witch group may not risk sending reinforcements. But if the troll retreats into the fortress now, who will guard the gate?
Haila saw the difficulty of the gatekeeper at a glance. Although she was ordered to stay at the fort only once, she had heard from other witches about the situation before each tsunami. HeLa took a look at the scene outside the fort and made a decision, "you go to the top and help Karen now, and I''ll close the entrance." The closure of the entrance is not random. Due to the good air tightness, the air inside the fortress is extremely limited. If we want to survive the tsunami, we must strictly control the timing of the entrance closing. In order to reduce the oxygen consumption in the fortress during the tsunami, the sorceress group only allowed two witches to be stationed each time.The mountain monster saw Hera open his mouth, so he nodded and walked towards the fortress. Behind him, the black stone wall falls slowly under the witch''s incantation, shutting out the last ray of light from the outside world.
"Dong, Dong, Dong!" The sound of footsteps was heard from outside the kitchen again, but this time it was much heavier. When he heard the sound, he immediately stood up. He opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he saw that the man walking down the corridor was not HeLa, but the silent gatekeeper. When he was a little embarrassed and wanted to sit down again, the witch ran down the corridor.
"Miss HeLa, I see! I know the answer to your question! The answer is Unfortunately, Hera does not have the energy to listen to Cech''s speculation. She had a bad sense of being left alone on the upper floor to block the corridor. So this time, she ran through the kitchen door without looking. The child left in the room lowered his arm in vain and said in a decreasing voice, "the answer is the grave. It''s only the tomb that separates the room, and there''s no door installed, because it''s closed and it''s never going to open again. Of course, there''s no need for a door. "
