After finishing the use of flame escape, Rhodes emerged from the flames. He looked at the towering and closed city wall in front of him, which was almost integrated with the nearby rock wall. He couldn't help scratching his head and said with some helplessness: "
There was a force that interfered with the use of space magic. I was not able to teleport directly into the city, but was moved to a location outside the city."
Rhodes didn't know what was going on. There was a slight deviation in his Flame Escape and he failed to reach the expected location. In his expectation, the two of them should appear directly in the city, not like now.
, I can only look at the cold gate outside the city.
Moriel didn't seem surprised by this result. She glanced at Rhodes and said, "That's Longyan's resistance to space magic. If anyone could use space magic to teleport into the city, I'm afraid the city would have been long gone."
It was attacked."
Rhodes nodded, thinking that it was no accident that the former hero Moriel could rise from the underground world. Even if she was in a different time, she would not easily show any flaws. Even Rhodes' space magic could not break through.
Such an obstacle. The most important thing now is to find a way to enter the city, and then we can find everything Moriel left behind in this time.
Rhodes observed the thickness of Dragon's Nest City's city gate. With his current strength, it seemed that it would not be difficult to break through the door directly and blast away the seemingly indestructible rock. But at this moment, he heard something from behind the door.
There was a burst of questioning.
"Who is standing outside Dragon Nest City? Tell us your purpose, otherwise, you will be regarded as the enemy of Lord Moriel."
Facing the angry interrogation, before Rhodes could say anything, Moriel scolded: "I am Moriel, please open this damn door!"
Listening to Moriel's words, the guard behind the door let out an exclamation. Not only that, but there was also the sound of a collision of armor, as if something had been knocked to the ground. Obviously, Moriel's name was behind the door.
The person was so frightened.
At the same time, Rhodes felt a sense of peeping in his perception. Looking in the direction from which the perception came, Rhodes saw the evil eye that was integrated with the mountain wall. The evil eye was using its many tiny
Eyeballs, carefully looked at the two people outside the door, taking in their appearance thoroughly.
"If you are really Lord Moriel, then you must know the secret code to open the door. What is the secret code today?" the guard behind the door asked, as if he would not open the door if he could not get a satisfactory answer.
.
Rhodes was a little helpless. Who knew what the password would be? According to the guard, the password would change every day. Even Moriel didn't know what the password was today. It seemed that he would still have to force the door open.
.
"The secret code is, if you don't open the door, when I return to the city, the first thing I swear to do is to let you experience my anger." Moriel ignored this and roared.
The guard behind the door was silent for a moment and said no more. Just when Moriel was getting a little impatient, he heard a sound of machinery coming from behind the door, and the extremely heavy rock slowly opened, along with
The guard's respectful words: "The exclusive password is correct, you are indeed Lord Moriel."
"What?" The corner of Rhodes' mouth twitched, as if he was still very confused by the scene in front of him. He couldn't help but complained in his mind, what kind of password is this? Isn't Moriel worried about others using her password? But
It would be difficult for anyone else to have the natural power of Moriel.
As if she noticed Rhode's puzzled look, Moriel just showed a bit of pride, and then walked through the open gate, passed the guard who leaned over to signal, and walked towards the city with her head held high.
Rhodes glanced at the guard when he passed by him. For some reason, Rhodes could feel a familiar aura from the guard. At first, Rhodes thought that this aura was just his illusion. It didn't matter.
, Rhodes just passed by the guard and turned around, returning to the guard: "Wait..."
"What are you looking at? Come with me." Seeing Rhodes stop, Moriel couldn't help but urge her from the front. Seeing that Rhodes was still unmoved, her eyes seemed to be completely attracted by the guard, Moriel
Not even angry, he had to return to Rhodes and asked, "What are you doing?"
Rhodes ignored Moriel's inquiry, his eyes were always on the guard, and he took the initiative to ask: "What's your name?"
The guard was stunned, as if he didn't understand why the man who came with Mr. Moriel would pay attention to him. He had nothing worth paying attention to, except that he could communicate with the evil eye, but that was nothing at all.
I had to answer honestly: "Sir, my name is Ajit."
"Aget?" Not only Rhodes, but also Moriel was slightly stunned, as if she understood why Rhodes stopped. It turned out that he had made such a discovery.
In the original time of the two of them, the hero Ajit was one of the generals under Moriel. He commanded many evil eyes for Moriel and occupied a very important position in the alien army. He also had excellent identification ability.
I had a contest with the appraisal master under Rhodes.
However, the current Ajit is just an inconspicuous guard in front of the dragon's lair gate. His presence is so weak that Moriel didn't even look at him and walked past him. If it weren't for
Rhodes discovered the problem, he was afraid that Moriel wouldn't recognize Ajit's existence at all.
Rhodes couldn't help but shook his head, and then looked at Moriel with a look of confusion and helplessness, as if he was saying: "Isn't Ajit your subordinate? Why didn't you even recognize me? Or?
It was only me who discovered him."
Moriel glared back fiercely, as if to answer: "How do I know what's going on with him? And it's none of your business!"
Rhodes became even more helpless. At this time, Moriel took the initiative to ask: "Ajit, with your strength, you should be more than just a guard. How did you become where you are now?"
Listening to Moriel's inquiry, Ajit did not dare to neglect him. Although Moriel was arrogant by nature, if he could get her favor, he would be able to rise to prominence soon, so he answered truthfully:
"Lord Moriel, many sorcerers are deeply dissatisfied with the decadent Negon royal family. We all long for a better life, and we all believe that only you can overthrow Hardward's rule and bring us
Such a life. I am also one of the magicians who believe in you. After learning about your deeds, I traveled thousands of miles to join you. Unfortunately, I have no other skills except communicating with the evil eye. In the end, I can only rely on this.
He has the ability to become a guard at the gate and observe outsiders through the gate."
Rhodes listened to Ajit's story and couldn't help but shook his head. In this time, Ajit also lost his identity as a hero. Now he can only rely on his ability to communicate with the evil eye to become the guard of the gate. With the disappearance of heroes, many things have undergone astonishing changes. After losing the ability to break fate, the originally famous heroes have become extremely ordinary during this time, and they look no different from ordinary creatures.
No difference, if Rhodes didn't ask, Moriel wouldn't even be able to find out that the person in front of her was Ajit.
At the moment, Ajit, who is a gate guard, is racking his brains on how to get Moriel's favor. He has no idea that in another timeline where heroes existed, he was also the one who ruled one side and thousands of people.
The Evil Eye leader above, and that is exactly how his identity as a hero changed his destiny.
Not only Moriel and Rhodes were affected by the disappearance of heroes, but all the heroes in the past, and even people related to the heroes, were also affected by this. The world was no longer what Rhodes and Moriel were familiar with.
.
After bidding farewell to Ajit, Rhodes and Moriel went on the road again, but this time, both Moriel and Rhodes became much silent. The changes that had occurred in Ajit had penetrated into their hearts.
In a world without heroes, even the experienced Rhodes doesn't know how to change everything, let alone how to escape. Many things are developing in completely unknown directions.
"Rhode." It was Moriel who took the initiative to speak, breaking the calm between the two, "Have you seen...the changes that happened to Ajit."
"Yes." Rhodes nodded. The indescribable uneasiness and worry were lingering in his heart, making him unable to calm down for a long time. He could only express some emotion from the bottom of his heart, "In this world, there are really many people.
There is no more hero."
"Perhaps, maybe this is the original appearance of the world. There are no heroes, and there is no heroic will to change everything. Everything happens according to the rules under the shadow of fate." Moriel sighed, and there was something in her words.
She was extremely helpless, but even though she was helpless, she could only accept such a result in the end.
Rhodes just looked at her and said: "I won't let this happen. I will try my best to return to our original time."
There was some firmness in Rhode's words. In that time, there were not only heroes, but also things that Rhode cared about, and all the power that belonged to Rhodes. Rhodes would try his best to return to where he belongs.
In time, he doesn't want to be trapped here forever.
Moriel also felt Rhode's firmness. At this moment, she actually thought of what Eve said to her. If the two of them really couldn't escape from this time, maybe only the two of them would remember that.
The glory that once belonged to heroes.
The two walked together. Moriel did not go to the tallest mansion in the city. Instead, she followed the guidance of the lights and came to the deserted rock wall. She reached out and pulled down the camouflage vines hanging from the rock wall, revealing
A cave passage the size of a person.
Rhodes looked at her with interest. Moriel must be more familiar with everything in Dragon's Nest City than he was, and what Rhodes wanted to do was to see what tricks she had up to her.
Following Moriel into the dark cave, Rhodes reached out and lit a flame, dispersing the nearby darkness. He saw a variety of transparent glass jars placed in the cave, and the jars were soaked with torsos from different species.
Parts, stubby claws, hard dragon wings, and even wide-open eyeballs can all be found in the jar.
As if aware of the two people's approach, the eyeballs soaked in the jar slowly turned, with bloodshot pupils in them, staring at the two people in front of them.
Anyone who has just entered this cave will think that this must be a place where the magician displays his collection. In the underground world, not many people are willing to take the risk of being killed and offend the magician with weird methods. p>
Moriel seemed to have been accustomed to this. She came to the corner of the cave, took off the lid of an empty can, and covered it on another empty can in front of the cave. The ground shook for a moment, and as the secret door opened, downwards
The steps emerged from under their feet.
Moriel entered it first. Seeing this, Rhodes followed behind her. After bypassing the twists and turns of the underground passage, she saw a golden light printed by the fire, which was the light reflected from the gold coins. p>
Rhodes looked around and saw a huge amount of gold coins spread out on the second floor. Anyone who saw this scene would be blinded by the light of the gold coins and find it difficult to look away. He couldn't help but ask: "I heard that
Dragons like to collect treasures and pile them up in their treasure houses. Is this your treasure house?"
Moriel rolled her eyes at him: "When I was a human, I used to hide many important things here. I think I have the same habit in this time. This saves me a lot of things and doesn't have to go around.
Find the whereabouts of the treasure."
With that said, Moriel put her hand into the pile of gold coins and saw her groping for a while. Before Rhodes could see clearly what she had done, he saw another secret door opening in front of him, and an unusual treasure came from it.
Breath.
This discovery also made Rhodes feel a little emotional. Even if someone could enter this place and accidentally come to the space where gold coins are stored on the second floor of the treasure house, they would be overwhelmed by the joy of discovering the secret immediately.
I thought I had cracked all the secrets of this place, but it was impossible to imagine that under those gold coins, there was a secret that was far more valuable than the gold coins, and that was the real collection that belonged to Moriel.
The various structures in the treasure house made Rhodes couldn't help but look at Moriel a few more times. He didn't expect that she also had such insight into people's hearts. The treasure house in front of her was forged when she was a human.
She has already demonstrated extraordinary abilities.
As Moriel came to the bottom floor of the treasure house, Rhodes also saw the dazzling collection. What caught his attention the most was a unique and extremely gorgeous four-color vial. Rhodes recognized it at a glance.
It is the dragon's blood bottle that Moriel longs for, one of the artifacts derived from the Holy Female Dragon.
