The wind in the desert is tangible. When the wind blows through the dunes, the shape of the gravel it carries is its shape.
With his deep-set eagle eyes, Mahazar-Ishv looked at the wisps of wind swirling on the sand dunes, taking away layers of sand and dust. The scorching sun scorched the desert, and Questa in the distance
The white walls of Ke are glowing in the sun, and this ancient royal capital looks like a withered skeleton in the middle of the desert.
After being visited by vultures, only the jagged bones were left - at least in the eyes of these habitual bandits, that's how it is. But under the withered bones, there are still countless wealth and legends buried, including beautiful women and beautiful women.
The magnificent palace has everything they desire and are crazy about.
But unfortunately, they can only dream of such crazy scenes in their sweet dreams - just like the ancient legend, the green dark star swallowed up everything, and the earth fell into doom.
But before the end comes, the indulgent people will go crazy first.
Several sand thieves are riding on sand lizards. This kind of creature unique to desert areas is tall and strong. Like all theropod sauriformes, they walk upright on two legs, with sharp claws on their toes, and there are thorns on their backs.
There are rows of bright feathers used for courtship, and rows of dagger-like teeth are exposed in the gaping mouth.
These are the horses of the desert people. Unlike the gentle beasts of burden like Balgo, they are born for fighting. They come and go like the wind, as if they were born to match the life of the sand pirates. In contrast, Bei
Therefore, the knights of the sand prefer to use earth dragons, which are larger in size and can bear the heavy armor of the knights.
Several riders came to the sand dunes and stood side by side with the king of sand thieves. These were the latter's old friends for many years, so Mahazar-Ishv did not care about such an 'offense'. In other words, as
The legend in the desert, the ruthless character who can stop children crying at night, and no one who truly dares to challenge his authority has been born yet.
He was wearing a taupe-patterned robe and a turban on his head. He had a dark complexion and several deep, staggered scars on his face - adding a bit of ruthlessness to him. This king of sand thieves was...
Holding his scimitar with one hand, he stood erect on the sand lizard's back like a javelin, his lips pressed into a tight line, and a kestrel, a common raptor in the desert, stood on his shoulder.
His dark brown eyes looked quietly into the distance.
time is limited.
He only pursues money and wealth, power and status, wine and women, but if there is a chance to set a fire here——
The eyes of this king of sand thieves flashed with a cruel and bloodthirsty light, and the depths of his deep eyes seemed to have reflected the light of the sky-the flames were burning, the palace collapsed, women screamed and cried, and the golden
The silver jewelry sets off the firelight, which is heart-warming.
Mahazar-Ishf stuck out his tongue and licked his dry and cracked lips.
…
Although Fang Plover was a little disappointed that Ye Hua was not found, he could only accept the result.
He first thanked the selector of the Southern Alliance, and then prepared to leave with Luo Yu and the box. However, before he had taken a few steps, a middle-aged man with frost-stained temples suddenly appeared in front of the two of them and said to them.
They said, "You really want to know what happened ten years ago?"
When Fang Yu heard this voice, he immediately looked at the other person in shock: "It's you!" He almost shouted out - the middle-aged man in front of him was wearing a gray alchemist coat, and the woolen cloth looked gray.
, one hand is wearing a metal glove, and there is a strange tattoo on the right side of his neck above the collar - his face is serious and his eyes are deep, giving people the impression of two sharp swords.
He had seen this person in Tansnir before. He was the 'Wandering Alchemist' who took away Inhanz Type 4 in the Desert Lodge. The other party dared to appear in this place. Questac, Is
The royal capital of Tanya, right under the nose of the King of Sand.
Fang Yu pressed a hand on the crystal on his chest, and almost subconsciously summoned the flexible structure. But he saw the middle-aged man standing motionless in front of him, only looking at him calmly, and suddenly
The movement of his hand slowed down, hovering an inch above the crystal, and finally he slowly lowered his hand and gave up the idea.
He looked at the selector who was a little surprised on the side, then looked at the latter, and understood something.
"you?"
"It's a cooperative relationship."
Fang Plover frowned. Are the 'Wandering Alchemist' in front of him and Ye Hua allies of the Southern Alliance? Then he should also be considered a person on the side of Babartan, the King of Sand? The logic he established before,
At this moment, there was some confusion again. The eldest princess claimed that the wandering alchemist was closely related to the murder of her mother, and even participated in the attack that day——
And now that this person appears in the camp of King of Sand Babartan, does it mean that the attack ten years ago was not as simple as imagined? The King of Sand may have some kind of house arrest for the eldest princess.
The deeper reasons, the answers that had gradually become clear, now fell into darkness again in Fang Yu's heart.
But the other party seemed to know what he was thinking, and said: "I guess you must think that a group of wandering alchemists attacked the princess ten years ago, and I was one of them."
Fang Plover looked at the other party in a daze.
The middle-aged man looked at the movements of his hands and couldn't help but shook his head slightly: "Actually, it's not surprising to have this idea, because someone is deliberately guiding such a result. This trick has never changed in these years. I even
You don’t need to look for clues, you can guess it——”
Fang Yu was in a daze for a moment.
Who is leading this outcome?
This trick, whose trick is it talking about?
But he at least understood one thing. After thinking for a moment, Fang Yu raised his head and asked: "You want to tell me that you are not the wandering alchemist ten years ago, but how do you know how the eldest princess is?"
Looking at all this, what do you want to prove by telling me this?"
He asked several questions in succession.
But the middle-aged man didn't answer any of them, and only asked: "Do you really want to know all this?"
This was almost the second time he asked this question. Fang Yu was slightly startled after hearing this, and then he remembered that he was here to find the whereabouts of Afifa, but somehow, as if by some strange coincidence, a thought arose in his heart at this moment.
Weird thoughts - Since arriving in Tansnir, various incidents have occurred one after another, but behind them, they are all related to the attack ten years ago.
Afifa will not disappear for no reason. Someone must be planning something behind this. The attack ten years ago seems to have nothing to do with what is happening now, but perhaps, they are passing through a kind of
Potential connections are linked together. Underneath the seemingly complex clues, there must be an invisible thread hidden.
The missing clue might be hidden in the missing part of the past story——
A strong desire arose in his heart. Maybe he could find some unknown clues from that story. And those clues might be the last incomplete part that he couldn't see, but the prerequisite was that he had to figure it out.
What is the motivation of the person in front of you?
He had not forgotten the battle at Tansnil Sand Lodge - the other party seemed to be a person on the Stargate Port military's wanted list. Naturally, he could not trust such a person easily.
But he finally nodded slightly.
The other party stepped aside slightly, making way for a passage, gesturing for him to enter. Fang Pliong looked at the entrance of the dark wine house, and for a moment he had an illusion, as if there was some kind of devil's cave behind it, like mountains of swords and seas of fire. But this illusion was very strange.
It faded away like a tide, he took a breath and walked forward.
Behind him, Xiang Xiang and Luo Yu looked at each other. The latter was a little worried, but the former followed him indifferently.
The middle-aged man did not let Fang Plover go ahead, but led the way.
After entering, it was just an ordinary hall. There were no hundreds of swordsmen ambushing left and right as Fang Piao imagined. The light in the hall was bright, no different from what he had seen a few days ago, and there were many guests.
The departure of the Sand King and the plain disappearance of a girl did not seem to have any direct impact on this ancient royal city.
People are still living their lives as before. The undulating dust passing through the sunlight seems to cover every day in this ancient city - day after day, there are not many changes. It is just an undercurrent that people cannot detect.
But it still surges forward, shaping and promoting the future of this kingdom of sand bit by bit.
After walking for a while, a middle-aged man's voice came from the front:
"Babartan was investigating the death of the princess ten years ago. At that time, the eldest princess was still underage and the little princess was still in her infancy. The things Her Royal Highness the Princess was investigating were nothing to that man.
, of course she is also very good, and she may be able to take a step closer in the future, but His Majesty the King of Sand may not be able to wait any longer..."
He turned around and looked at Fang Plover with dark brown eyes: "You work for the eldest princess and have been known to the Supreme in the palace from the beginning. It may take more time just to find out your origins.
It took some time. You should know the positions of Ye Hua and Governor Bein, and it is not surprising that they learned this news."
"Ye Hua and I have a pretty good personal relationship, and it's not surprising that he told me this -"
"Then do they know that you robbed Inhanzi Type 4 from the Sand Lodge?"
The middle-aged man turned around again and asked at the same time: "Then does Su Changfeng know what you are doing in Bein?"
"That was your first move, and we had no choice but to do it."
"Who isn't?"
The two walked out of the hall and entered the courtyard at the back. The middle-aged man looked at the aisle in front and said: "I have a handy tool. In order to achieve some goals, I have to do it. If you think I violated the "
"Stargate Declaration", it doesn't matter - people in Stargate Port are also looking for me anyway, right?"
Fang Yu suddenly reacted: "Do you know Su Changfeng?"
The middle-aged man didn't answer.
His heart moved slightly, he looked at the other person's back and asked again: "You are the chosen one."
The other party remained silent.
But not answering also means acquiescing to this possibility.
In fact, Fang Yu had already seen this. He suddenly realized that Stargate Port wanted some aboriginal people for no reason? Then there is only one possibility. These wandering alchemists were originally the chosen ones - but this
The idea shocked him even more than it originally did.
The middle-aged man in front of him is at least forty or fifty years old. Generally speaking, after the age of thirty-five, the chosen person's strength will be greatly degraded due to the reason of synchronization with the glow material, but he has personally experienced the battle with the opponent.
In this battle, the opponent's strength was at least at the top level in the First World.
If this is the strength after degradation, how strong was it before degradation?
Ten Kings, I’m afraid they can’t reach this level, right?
At this time, the middle-aged man walked and said: "As a wanted criminal, you can choose not to believe what I say - in fact, you can choose to listen or not. But the story itself actually has little to do with me.
, if you think I am explaining something to you, but you just need to listen and you will understand."
"About the attack ten years ago?" Fang Pliong asked.
The middle-aged man nodded.
He paused for a moment, as if he was recalling something, and after a while, he said again: "When you came to see Ye Hua that day, I was actually listening. At that time, you mentioned the notebook, but Ye Hua didn't
Tell you the origin of that notebook - in fact, he knows it. As for not telling you, do you know why?"
Before Fang Yu could speak, the middle-aged man continued: "Probably because he doesn't want you to be involved in such an incident. Ten years ago, regarding the No. 7 ban, what happened to the Kaulin royal family and the Istanian royal family at that time.
Everything about it, as well as your intervention in the dispute between the Sand King Babartan and the eldest princess, seemed to him to be a bit too deep."
"As a selector - no, a qualified selector, he certainly doesn't want you to violate the Stargate Declaration. This is probably the biggest difference between him and me." The middle-aged man turned around again.
Shen Lai: "Your name is Ed, right? You have the same name as the great alchemist in history. Let me ask you a question, do you think rules or justice are more important?"
Fang Plover was immediately stunned.
Rules and justice, but isn’t the Stargate Declaration about justice among the chosen ones?
Seeing his thoughts, the middle-aged man smiled: "The Stargate Declaration is a kind of progress, but the integration and mutual influence between the two worlds have been decided from the moment the Stargate opened. And
This relationship is destined to become closer and closer, and the method of artificially drawing boundaries will one day usher in new troubles. The "Stargate Declaration" only restricted the past, but how can it determine everything in the present? Thirteen years
Everything that happened before the Battle of Bain has already explained many problems."
"At the time when the Stargate Declaration was signed, only people from Earth could travel to Aitaria, but Eitaria people could travel to Earth. Could the Stargate Declaration have foreseen this situation?"
"The mutual influence between the two worlds has become an irreversible process, unless the Star Gate is closed again. Under such circumstances, the chosen ones want to take care of themselves within the framework of the past "Star Gate Declaration"
Self-pretending - or pretending to be noble, is already an outdated thing."
Fang Plover listened to these words silently.
In fact, such remarks are not new. There are often such unconventional voices in the community. To be honest, he does not fully agree with these remarks, or in other words, he does not fully agree with the other party's behavior. Half a century ago
The signed "Stargate Declaration" may be somewhat outdated, but it does not mean that etiquette has collapsed and people can act freely according to their own standards.
Just like the 'Wandering Alchemist' in front of him, no matter what the other party said, he could not make Fang Plover feel that the other party's actions in the desert were correct.
The middle-aged man carefully observed the changes in his expression and understood that the answer in this young man's heart was not the same as his own. However, he did not care and only said: "It seems that you don't agree with what I said, but it seems that you don't agree with what I said.
I don’t really agree with Ye Hua’s idea, that’s good, young people should have their own ideas.”
He looked ahead and replied calmly: "The future will be a new era, and everyone needs to find their own path, whether it is you, me, Ye Hua, or the little girl named Loofah.
No one is absolutely right, but maybe that's what I have in mind because that era is over."
When he heard the other party mention loofah, Fang Pliance was slightly surprised and didn't quite understand what this had to do with the latter.
But in fact, he had been listening in a fog, but he inexplicably remembered the conversation Bishop Farris had with him not long ago. He may not have an accurate idea of justice, but at least he is a little settled.
In your heart, tell yourself that at least there is a clear path.
Just like the big cat people, he will follow his own path.
The middle-aged man then put aside these random topics and returned to the topic: "Actually, I can tell you the origin of that notebook."
Hearing these words, Fang Yu felt a chill in his heart and suddenly raised his concentration. He had long been interested in that notebook, but it was not just because of the attack ten years ago, or even just because of Xi
The story of Erweide's father, or - the moment when he saw that notebook in his uncle's study when he was a child.
That question had already been planted in his mind.
Where did the notes come from?
The middle-aged man said in a reminiscing tone: "But the story about that note may have to start from an earlier timeline, even ten years before the attack on the princess, even during the Battle of Byrne.
The cause of the previous war was probably about the ownership of the 'God's Body', but the real reason was actually deeper, but in the final analysis, it was because of the discovery of an adventure group."
