The Amber Sword

“See, Les Mecca, the glow of the first ancient kings has penetrated the clouds, pervading the earth, a voice calling for the king, but the world has turned a blind eye to it. ”

“But so what?” Les Mecca broke Kaya's hand and grabbed a half-air pendant: “We don't even know who that man is, and he gets it all, but we lose everything. ”

“Greed is a disgrace, sister, and the twilight comes on the Day of Final Judgment. ”

“Twilight is dead, the demons are in civil strife, they will return to chaos sooner or later, and we must find a powerful mountain to reclaim our kingdom.” Les Mecca's eyes sparkle: “The kingdom above the earth is stronger than you think, not even the dragon queen is an opponent of those on the ground, I have identified a man who will surely let us regain the glory we have lost. ”

Strangely enough, when her hand held the necklace's fall, it was as if it had lost all its magic and had been recreated as a regular necklace pendant, lying quietly in her hand.

The Dark Elf Girl glanced at her, shook her head and sighed, then stopped saying anything.

“Miss Les Mecca? ”

Les Mecca turned back somewhat suddenly, and she saw some cautiously looking at her Haruze, her eyes slightly flashing in her pristine pupils.

She stretched her hand and gently rubbed the little prince's head, saying, "Nothing, Haruze, it's a matter within our clan. ”

She picked up the ornament in her hand and the scales on the back of her hand glistened under the moonlight: “This is the treasure of my people, Kaya, a priestess of Zhuokasha, the keeper of this treasure, which is so important to my people that I will not fake it in any case. ”

Half a letter from Haruze looked at Kaya, who could not see far away, and the Dark Elf Girl chose silence to be right.

“Miss Les Mecca, why don't you put it away? I promise you, no one will take it away. You're my sister's guest. We'll keep you safe in Eruin.” He replied.

“Good boy,” Les Mecca smiled. “Nobody can take it away from you, but you have to keep it a secret, because it'll only cause trouble for you and your sister, you understand? ”

Haruze nodded.

It was at this time that a loud song suddenly appeared in the distant hills, and Haruze turned his head curiously in that direction. He had never heard the language in the song, which was neither the voice of the mountain people nor the local slang of Anzeluta.

“What's that?” The little prince asked with some curiosity that a golden rain was falling in the sky and the flames seemed to light up half the night on a distant horizon, and he had no idea that someone would sing at this time.

And this song seems to have some strange magic that makes people feel a little sad.

“That's Toquinin's lion.” Les Mecca's side ears listened for a moment before looking in that direction and answering.

“Why are they singing?” Haruze asked, “What are they singing? ”

This time, however, Ms. Medusa did not speak.

Instead, Kaya glanced at the little prince and said, "Because a thousand years later, someone passed the trial of Chongshan, and a king wore his laurel, the lions of Tokenin, the dwarves in the mountains, and the inhabitants of Jorgendigan, all the children of the earth ——”

When she said this, her eyes fell on Les Mecca, but the latter did not respond and said to her, "So what, how were we driven out of our homes and enslaved by the devil? The people of the earth are long dead, believe in yourself, Kaya, believe in the guidance of the goddess Drokassah. ”

“There comes not only the king of the earth, sister, you know. ”

Les Mecca's face changed slightly.

……

In the White Rose Garden of the Palace of San Cantipe, all the guests in the banquet hall seem to have forgotten the passage of time at this moment, as if they were ducks with their necks pinched, looking up at the cedar in the air with their big mouths open.

The mountain girl held a trembling Tianqing gun, and the green, dreamy, long gun pointed in one direction, as if it would fly away from her at any time.

As everyone saw, the lines of gold and silver law intertwined, constantly appearing in the lobby and then disappearing, they gradually formed a mysterious picture around Sy.

At this moment, the needle was still in the lobby, and only Ovina's voice echoed under the dome.

“Hold me tight, but do not bind the will of the holy things! ”

“It's like talking to me, Ovina!” Sy screamed in a bit of a hurry: “Should I respond to it? ”

“It wasn't my voice, it was the echoes of the mountains, and someone passed the Chongshan test. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“It means that a king has returned to Warnde, wearing his laurel, and therefore his sword. ”

Suddenly, the sound of a squeaking conversation between the two echoed in the lobby, and Sy felt that the gun in Tianqing's hand had become hundreds of times more powerful, and a vast will had descended on the gun.

A sacred token is made sacred in the lobby.

“Lord Martha! ”

“Oh, my God, that's Lord Martha's badge! ”

In the middle of the hall, the soldiers were in chaos, and since the gods left, the world had never seen anything like it. Martha's holy emblem was holy, as if that glorious era had returned to this earth at this moment.

But such a scene lasted only a moment, and everyone saw the long gun in Sy's hand emitting an incredibly bright light, forming a projection forward - a bright beam towards the deserted area to which Sy was pointing - and hitting an arch window there in the open side corridor of the ballroom.

Then a miracle happened, and the beam hit the arch window, and immediately opened a gate, a view that no one had seen before —— a shallow sea of blue, a mountain of sky fluctuations.

The beam disappeared from the door as soon as it opened, and all the curtains and broken glass near the door were sucked in.

But just in the blink of an eye, the light door began to shrink and disappear.

The only thing left in the lobby that still held Tianqing's gun, she stared at the scene, but a moment later she felt acutely that something was missing from Tianqing's gun.

She turned around and was about to ask Ovina. It was at this time, however, that the whole of Rusta suddenly shocked.

Almost everyone in the lobby fell to the ground unsteady.

After a moment of quiet...

Someone just asked in a bit of a panic, "What was that? ”

“Earthquake? ”

“The emperor has been hit again? ”

But the voice went down, and suddenly the glass on the arch-window corridor on one side of the ballroom broke completely, and a wind swept in from outside the rose garden, blowing out all the candles and magic lamps in the lobby in an instant.

The crowd in the lobby, not having reacted, was blown away by this powerful airflow and hit the wall one after the other, falling again. A pitch-black lobby was in the middle of nowhere, and while the nobles did not yet understand what was happening, it did not prevent them from making the worst guess.

Immediately in the darkness there was chaos, people screamed and panicked towards the basement - teleporting the chambers in which the Falun Front was located, people gathered, scattering almost everything they could, women's and children's cries, men's angry shouts, and the sounds of each other's shouts mixed together, rushing straight into the clouds.

Only a handful of people in the crowd were able to remain calm, Charles, Metisa and Cee being one of them, unlike the frightened aristocrats, who reacted almost at the moment of the change.

Charles first performed a defensive spell for himself, while Metisa and Cee ran against the crowd and tried to rush outside the lobby to see exactly what had happened.

The first time Metissa separated herself into the corridor because she was situated somewhere else, the wind pouring in from the outside didn't stop. They hunted through the curtains of the corridor, torn apart windows, and looked at the past as if it was a dancing ghost.

As soon as Metissa came to the corridor, she saw a man covered in blood running up to him with a roll, yelling at her as she ran: "Miss Delphine! Miss Delphine's gone! ”

The little elf princess stood still and hurried to help each other. “What are you talking about? ”

“That portal, Miss Delphine, was gone!” The man who was apparently dressed as a royal housekeeper was covered in blood and said to her incessantly.

Metissa had just heard what he was saying and was just about to ask for details, but she hadn't had time to ask, and suddenly the light in the rose garden outside was slightly dim.

She looked up and found something climbing in through the broken arch window.

It's a creature made entirely of crystals--

Two or three people tall enough to occupy half a corridor, some like spiders, four pairs of feet, a distinct chest and chest abdomen, a pointed and thin part of the head that looks like a hook; but the thick crust on this thing is similar to that on some crustaceans, making it look a bit uncanny.

But the other party was obviously unhappy, and as soon as it saw Metisa, it lifted two teams of forelegs, revealing a noticeable red light in its eyes.

“Cluster -”

The little princess holds the speargun and stares at this thing almost squeezing the words out of her teeth.

……

Time seems to be in a state of stagnation for a long time.

Once Brando thought he was dead, he felt like he was in a pitch-black, top-down, left-right world, where there seemed to be no passage of time, no concept of space, and the only thing he could feel - was his own thoughts.

He could not make a sound, could not move, did not even know how long it had passed, could be a day, could be a year, could be stagnant altogether, because of the lack of references, which he thought was only a very long time.

“Is this the world after death? ”

He couldn't bear to think.

But soon he realized he was wrong.
