433. Sword in the Stone
Hades.
The bright sunshine passed through the dense branches and leaves, leaving mottled light spots on the ground. The transparent blue sky enveloped all the residents of Avalon. This area simply does not look like a land of the dead in the Kingdom of Fog.
, instead it looks like a legendary fairyland.
But there is no problem in saying this. After all, Avalon is the dreamland in the legend of King Arthur, but no one can imagine that such a beautiful scenery will appear in the Kingdom of Mist.
Hevin recalled the content of King Arthur's legend and found that there were indeed some hints in it. The legendary Utopia was surrounded by thick fog. This background can make people feel mysterious in the story.
And where else can there be endless thick fog like the Kingdom of Fog, the territory of Hela, the goddess of death?
Anlai, a beautiful young man who could not tell the difference between male and female, was leading the way in front of Hewen.
The jungle is filled with all kinds of strange insects, brightly colored amphibians, snakes wrapped around tree trunks, and crocodiles living in shallow waters.
Hevin has discovered many pairs of animals that should not be present in the same ecological environment at the same time.
An Lai gets rid of Teng Man:
"After walking for a while we will reach the residential area. This is a must stop for all new arrivals, but in the end most of them will not settle here,"
Hevin discovered that although Anlai was walking naked in the woods, his wheat-colored skin was still soft and clean.
He didn't pay special attention when he came here before, but wouldn't the soul be contaminated by dust in the underworld?
But what I just encountered in the previous town overturned this view.
No, the soul will still be stained with dirt while walking in the woods in the underworld.
So is it Anlai or the soil itself that is the problem?
The distribution of creatures in this place is very unconventional. Although it is a bit strange to insist on common sense in the underworld, after all, the creatures here are already dead.
If you think about it seriously, dead creatures cannot reproduce.
None of these plants and animals need to absorb nutrients or hunt.
Therefore, the scene here should be a man-made ornamental tank, rather than a natural cyclic ecological environment, so it is reasonable for mutually exclusive creatures to appear in the same area.
Snapped.
Hevin turned his head and looked at the tree frog behind him who flicked out his tongue towards the mosquito and swallowed it into his mouth.
Anlai brushed off the leaves on his body and looked ahead with pride:
"Here we are."
Hevin walked out of the woods.
He could see the outline of a small town, about three kilometers in front of the two of them.
The underworld is not a part of a sphere, but a flat continental plate that exists in an independent dimension connected to the other eight worlds through the World Tree.
So he can keenly sense flat surfaces on the ground.
And if there is no shelter, Hewen can see the other side of the world from one side of the world.
Hewen said:
"There is?"
Anlai showed a pure smile:
"You'll know when you get there."
Anlai directly took Hevin's hand and led him to jog towards the town:
"Mr. Hevin, can I run faster?"
Hevin replied:
"sure."
While observing Hewen's expression, Anlai released his hand and cautiously increased his speed.
After a while, although the two of them still maintained a trotting posture, their speed was already too fast for mortals to accept.
Dust is flying.
Anlai stopped directly at the entrance of the town.
The beautiful boy gasped and looked back at Hewen:
"I haven't exercised in a long time. Mr. Hewen, we are here. This is Stone Sword Town."
There were no guards outside the town gate, but behind the town gate, residents of all kinds were walking around, including middle-aged women carrying baskets, young men with resolute expressions wearing swords, and old people taking a leisurely stroll.
But none of them paid special attention to Hewen's appearance, and seemed to be used to this kind of thing.
Hewen asked:
"Stone Town?"
The beautiful young man said with an excited expression:
"It's the legendary sword, follow me!"
After saying that, Anlai walked towards the center of the town.
Hevin followed closely behind him.
"Anlai, you have someone to guide you. You really like this job."
Anlai turned to face a man dressed as a hunter and grinned:
"Of course, this is King Arthur's ideal land!"
The hunter shook his head:
"You are still too idle. If you wait for as long as I do, you will never be so energetic."
Anlai said confidently:
"We'll see."
The boy's pace became more and more brisk and exciting, and it was obvious that he was looking forward to what he was about to see.
In other words, he was very much looking forward to seeing Hewen.
They arrived at the town center.
Anlai turned his head and looked at Hewen proudly.
Hewen showed a surprised expression as he expected.
A hill stands in the middle of the street.
And at the top of the stone mountain, there is a sword deeply inserted into the stone.
Hewen asked:
"This is……"
An Lai rushed:
"The Sword in the Stone! The sword that King Arthur pulled out, symbolizing power and greatness."
Hewen asked curiously:
"Is this the original sword?"
Anlai nodded heavily:
"This is when King Arthur ended his campaign. When he passed by here, he inserted the Sword in the Stone into this pile of stones. After that, he went to the world adjacent to me and established his own small kingdom.
"The Sword in the Stone attracted many of his former followers, admirers and admirers to visit. Because more and more people came, a small town was eventually formed."
Hevin stepped forward and reached out to touch the hard stone surface.
Exactly the same.
This sword in the stone is exactly the same as the real one.
No matter how it looks, feels or feels, there is no difference.
Even if Merlin came here, he couldn't find any problems.
No one except King Arthur would be able to tell at a glance that this sword is a forgery.
Hewen didn't notice it either.
But he still knows.
Chapter completed!
