Chapter 56
When his eyes swept across the completely unfamiliar stone roof, over a dozen sturdy stone pillars, and the mottled carvings on them, he lowered his head in surprise and asked Kevin: "What is this place? I was confused by a dream just now. I turned my head, I didn't even react... Where are we?"👎🏿
"This is the underground of the Old Rose Castle." Kevin replied, and he also looked up at the dome that had returned to peace from the shaking aftertaste, guessing: "Something passed from outside."👎🏿
The old rose castle has been buried in the desert for a hundred years, and its sturdiness is greatly reduced, at least a little worse than Kevin thought. The movement on the ground can easily be transmitted to the underground palace through the rough stone floor of the ruins.👎🏿
The rumbling and thunderous movement just now seemed to be caused by a group of people hurried past here. But to cause an underground shock within a range, the movement of this team will not be too small, and it seems to be very urgent.👎🏿
"Oh yes, we've arrived at the Old Rose Castle." Osved stared at the dome vigilantly, and after waiting for a while, seeing that it was no longer moving, he put down the paw that was covering Kevin's face and moved Sirius. The huge body was put aside.👎🏿
Kevin was then able to get out of the pressure of Sirius. He sat up and exhaled two breaths. He was relieved.👎🏿
Osved's eyes were still circling in the underground palace, he swept across the people all over the place, his brows furrowed, and the expression on the wolf's face was puzzled and serious: "I remember that we met a part of the advance army in the secret passage, and they died. , the expressions and postures are very strange. Then we came out of the dry well, reached the mirage, caught up with the first marching army, and rushed to the old rose castle... and then?"👎🏿
He turned his head to look at Kevin, as if trying to recall, but he couldn't remember the missing fragment in his memory: "I found that I lost a memory, what did we meet after arriving at the Rose Old Castle? You still have Impression? I think I should have seen something, but I can't remember what it is anyway, I'm about to say but-"👎🏿
Speaking of which, he was stunned. Because these words sounded too familiar, they had heard the same words not long ago when they met the pioneers led by Wood and Nick in front of the dunes.👎🏿
"Wait—so what Wood and the others saw in the secret passage is the same thing we saw at the ruins of Old Rose Castle?" Although Osved was guessing, his tone was almost unequivocal, "Do you remember Wood What did they say? They saw something, but they couldn't remember anything when it came to their mouths."👎🏿
Kevin pinched his brows, said "um", and replied, "Almost, it should be the same or something similar."👎🏿
When he heard Wood's description under the hill, Kevin thought that it should be related to Morley. After all, no ordinary person can create this kind of memory-erasing effect casually, unless witchcraft and medicine are used together. But he never thought that his godhead would come back one day, so he didn't think about the phoenix godhead at all.👎🏿
And when he arrived at Rose Old Castle and saw the phoenix, he already understood what Wood and the others saw in the secret passage.👎🏿
But if what Wood and the others saw was a phoenix, then the problem came-👎🏿
What did Morley arrange for them to see the phoenix? Why some people died and some people chased the old rose castle alive?👎🏿
Moreover, since he had a way to make the phoenix go around the secret passage, why didn't he just force Kevin to take back his divine status in the secret passage, and he had to make a big circle and go around the Rose Old Castle?👎🏿
Kevin sat there with his legs bent, his elbows tucked loosely between his knees, rubbing his eyebrows slowly, and thinking with his eyes down: why did Morley put so much effort into bringing him back to his place here? Does the Old Rose Castle mean anything to him?👎🏿
Osved on the side looked like he was thinking hard when he saw him answering vaguely, thinking that he was also trying to recall the missing part of the memory. He raised his furry paws and patted Kevin lightly, saying, "Don't rub it, you don't have to think about it if you can't remember it. Actually, I have a guess."👎🏿
Kevin was stunned and looked up at him: "...what guess?"👎🏿
"Do you remember why we came to the Old Rose Fort?" Osved said solemnly, "It's because the Priest said that they saw the traces of Fae in the Rose Old Fort. Do you remember the scene that Mowgli saw? He said he saw Fae standing beside the broken wall of the high tower of the Old Rose Fort, holding a longbow in his hand and a totem of a phoenix on the side of his neck."👎🏿
Kevin laughed dryly: "Well, you remember it quite clearly, and then what?"👎🏿
"Mowgli they didn't mention when this scene appeared, and we seem to subconsciously acquiesce him as something in the past, which has already appeared in the old rose castle. But - what if it is not the past but the future? If Mowgli Is what he saw actually some kind of prophecy?" He turned to stare at Kevin, his transparent eyes were extraordinarily clear and clear: "You say, our erased memories, will it be about Fae? We reach the rose. When you were in the old castle, when you landed in front of the tower, would you see the Radiant God Fae?"👎🏿
Kevin looked at him numbly, speechless.👎🏿
"If you really saw a miracle, the memory loss is completely understandable." Osved said, "After all, it is not something that ordinary people can see casually. Then we have a collective coma..."👎🏿
He raised his eyes and glanced at the people piled up in the underground palace, and even seriously guessed: "If what I thought just now is correct, then it is very likely that we were moved into this place by Fae, after all, who can How did you move so many people from the ground to the ground?"👎🏿
Kevin: "..."👎🏿
"What do you think?" After analyzing, Osved glanced at him and asked in a deep voice.👎🏿
"There's reason and logic, that's about it." Kevin waved his hand, agreeing very perfunctorily, and at the same time he muttered for a while: Young people really dare to think about it, they can guess all of this, and I'm convinced .👎🏿
While Kevin muttered, his eyes were still circling around the corners of the underground palace, trying to find some clues that he hadn't noticed before.👎🏿
As a result, as soon as he glanced at it, he felt that a furry thing had come close to his lower back, and gave him a sharp arch.👎🏿
Kevin was already ticklish, but he got goosebumps from such a tickling, and he turned his head and said, "...what are you doing?"👎🏿
As a result, Osved raised his noble and handsome wolf head, tilted it slightly to the right, and made a very arrogant look, and then a slanted gaze leaked from the corner of his eyes, looking at Kevin very dissatisfied.👎🏿
Obviously, he was unhappy by Kevin's perfunctory answer just now. After all, His Majesty the noble emperor boldly made such a series of very reliable associations and guesses.👎🏿
Kevin just thinks his furry face is clearly printed in large letters - should you give me a compliment? Is this the least polite thing to do? Do you really care about imperial power? !👎🏿
Kevin: "..."👎🏿
Since some people pierced the window paper, there has been a kind of "no face" attitude. In the past, His Majesty the Emperor wanted to save face when he died, and he tried his best to make himself appear calm, steady, and introverted.👎🏿
If I have to define it, it is probably because I can't completely pull down my face, and I want to show off my talent, so I am stuck between the arrogant Sirius and the open-screen peacock.👎🏿
Kevin stared at his face silently for a while, raised his hand and slapped him on the forehead, rubbed his hair twice, and praised grimly in a "Are you two hundred and five" tone: "What are you doing? Being so smart, his intelligence is almost catching up with a ten-year-old human child, promise me, let's play!"👎🏿
Osved: "..."👎🏿
He snorted from his nose, staring at Kevin's every move with a heavy gaze. Kevin didn't know what he saw at this time, he was standing up and walking towards the corner of the wall. From Osved's point of view, he could see a section of white neck under his dark hair. The outline of the muscles and bones, thin and good-looking.👎🏿
Osved squinted and watched for a while, only to feel that his teeth were itchy. He licked the tip of his teeth and pressed the urge, and suddenly remembered something and said, "Right—"✍️
"Huh?" Kevin squatted halfway in the corner, groping for something there, and replied without replying.👎🏿
Osved's teeth itch even more when he hears his lazy voice. He coughed before saying seriously: "The priest said that Fae has a phoenix pattern on the side of his neck, so it shouldn't be difficult to find such a clear mark." After all, according to the priest's language, the appearance of Fae can be related to the Golden Lion Country. life and death.👎🏿
Hearing the words, Kevin paused, turned his head and said angrily, "Did you see that this was mentioned in "Divine Calendar"?"👎🏿
"That's not... You mean the pattern didn't follow him all the time?" Osved said.👎🏿
Kevin: "It's just that people don't usually see it."👎🏿
Osved thought for a while and said, "That's right... The Phoenix is the representative totem of Fae. Could it have something to do with his soul? It won't be revealed, only at a specific time? For example, when you return to the world, the soul will return to its place?"👎🏿
have to say... young people really diverge. Kevin squatted in the corner, thinking to himself: guessed eight, nine and ten again.👎🏿
That totem, Kevin, couldn't be clearer. It represented the godhead. How could it be exposed on the neck every day for people to see? Under normal circumstances, as long as its own state is stable, it will not be revealed.👎🏿
If one day Radiant Temple has a sudden quirk, sleepwalking, losing a soul or something, it may show up.👎🏿
But the probability of this kind of thing happening is so low, it's like Morley ran up to Kevin and took the initiative to give him the hundreds of godheads he possessed.👎🏿
In short, the emperor should not expect to rely on this to find people, dreaming is faster.👎🏿
He muttered in his heart, and the movements of his hands did not stop.👎🏿
When he glanced at the corner of the wall just now, he saw a crack behind a soldier leaning against the wall. came over to explore, and sure enough, found something in the crack.👎🏿
The crack was only a finger wide, and when the thing came out, it almost shattered in Kevin's hand. He shook the black crumb into his palm, fiddled with it, and then leaned in and sniffed again.👎🏿
"What do you just hear?" Osved walked over with a frown.👎🏿
Kevin stared at the crumb for a while, and said, "I know where this place is."👎🏿
The crumbs in his hand were long gone, but Kevin could still smell it through the little smell left behind. This was the smell of long vine roses.👎🏿
Legend has it that the old rose castle is famous for its apricot roses, roses climbing in every corner of the castle, a colorful and beautiful country like a dream. Now that think about it, it's probably not a rose, but an apricot-colored vine rose that is very similar to a rose.👎🏿
The apricot vine rose is much more familiar to Kevin than the apricot rose, because that's the flower Thenis used to create Morley.👎🏿
"Where?" Osved asked.👎🏿
Kevin twisted the pieces and said lightly, "Suta Plains."👎🏿
He finally knew why Morley had to put his godhead in his place here.👎🏿
As far as Kevin knew about Morley, whether he was a child or when his temper started to get weird, there was a habit that didn't count as an advantage or a disadvantage - he especially liked to commemorate himself.👎🏿
Later, Kevin thought that it was probably because he desperately wanted to separate himself from Kevin's shadow, so he liked to emphasize himself. All things created by him, he must mark a unique mark in some corner. He identifies every day that is closely related to him as a memorial day, and marks every place that is special to him as a holy place.👎🏿
In the past Thenis, they only thought he was like a puppy who was stalking the ground. Among the gods and gods who thought they were elders, in addition to being stubborn and funny, they were paranoid and cute, and they didn't think there was any problem.👎🏿
In a way, these debauchery gods are also big-hearted.👎🏿
With Morley's personality, the Plains of Suta was where he was born, how could it not be considered a special place? And it is not simply special, it is the most sacred place.👎🏿
He likes to remind everyone to remember things related to him, and letting Kevin regain his divine status in the former Suta Plain will inevitably make Morley have an illusion of "I gave you life", and can always remind Kevin that he Returning to the place where the god was born is the alms of the god.👎🏿
It was just too much in Morley's temperament.👎🏿
Just as he was distracted by the powder, the giant beast Sirius suddenly let out a low snort from the bottom of his throat, and then leaned down alertly and pressed against the ground, as if listening to something.👎🏿
