"Amri, why did you come here? I've been looking for you for a long time."
Standing at the city gate, a middle-aged man running from a distance held Adil's hand. He breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the soldiers on the side: "Get out of the way!"
At this moment, the anxious and fearful expression on his face faded away, replaced by a majestic look that even made Adil look at him with some suspicion.
"It turns out he is the child of Priest Senger." The vine-armored soldier guarding the city looked solemn and lowered his head to Adil, as if to apologize.
"Okay, Amri, let's go in."
Holding Adil's hand, Senge put a smile on his face, and then led Adil forward.
Buildings were passing by in front of his eyes, and the patterns and shapes of most of them seemed familiar to Adil.
"The layout of the ruins is exactly the same as before."
Observing the roads and buildings around him carefully, this thought silently flashed through Adil's mind.
I don't know why, but when I got here, a sense of familiarity kept emerging from my heart. Even though the surroundings were completely unfamiliar, there was a strange sense of familiarity, as if he had lived here before.
Feeling this, Adil looked a little ugly: "Even I can't detect anything wrong with this illusion..."
While walking, he was also checking out the scenery he passed by in his own way.
But no matter whether it was his powerful mental power or the chip deep in his soul, no abnormalities were found at this time, as if all this was true.
"We're here." Senger's unique hoarse voice sounded next to him.
Holding Adier's hand, he walked to an old manor. Looking at the manor full of weeds in front of him, he smiled happily: "I'm finally home..."
He raised his head and looked at the old manor in front of him, which seemed to have not been taken care of for a long time. His face looked a little bad, as if he was remembering something from the past.
Standing next to him and looking at the dilapidated and primitive manor in front of him, Adil was stunned.
It seemed that something critical had been encountered. At this moment, an unusual sense of familiarity came to my mind, along with fragments of memories.
As if he was reborn again, a large number of memories inexplicably appeared in his mind.
Following these memories, he subconsciously walked to the door of the manor and looked at a black wooden board in front of the door of the manor.
There were traces carved on the black wooden board, and in the center, there were some writings written in a language that was unfamiliar but familiar to Adil.
"Happy birthday to you, Amri Yala."
Looking at the handwriting carved on the wooden board, an inexplicable sense of familiarity came from his heart, causing him to subconsciously read out these words.
"Yara..." Looking at the last name after his first name, Adil looked at him with some suspicion: "It is exactly the same as the last name of my body."
"Amuri, stop playing around." A rough palm was placed accurately on Adil's head.
Looking at Adil from the side, Senger kept a smile on his face: "It's time for us to go in."
"Okay." He turned around slightly and took a deep look at Senger. Adier remained calm on the surface and just nodded silently.
With a soft sound, the wooden door was quickly opened, and then the two of them slowly walked in.
It was noon at this time, and in the sky, the golden sun was shining all around, spreading wisps of pale golden sunlight down and shining on the black land.
And all around, next to an old house that looked quite big, weeds were surviving tenaciously, covering the surrounding soil.
These scenery should be very unfamiliar to Adil, but in his eyes at this time, they felt unusually familiar.
Even, at this moment, Adil had a feeling in his heart.
He seems to have grown up here since he was a child. Everything around him has no secrets for him. Even if he walks with his eyes closed, he can know where he is without any fear or uneasiness.
This feeling should have been good, but at this moment, Adil only felt a cold feeling in his heart.
"Did it also affect my memories and feelings?"
This thought flashed through his mind, and then his attention was attracted by something outside.
Wang...
A low hissing sound came from outside.
Under Adil's gaze, outside the open wooden door of the manor, a shaggy, skinny black dog ran in from the outside, stood directly on the threshold and barked loudly, as if calling for something.
"Wild dog?"
Listening to the barking of the dog outside the door, Adil muttered to himself, then subconsciously stood up and walked towards the skinny black native dog.
"Du..."
He walked gently to the threshold, looked at the black native dog standing in front of him, and following the feeling in his heart, Adil slowly said a name.
After the words fell, the dog in front of him barked again, lowered his head slightly, and touched Adil's hand, as if to express his emotions.
"Injured again."
Gently touching the dog's head, Adil keenly saw several scars on it, as well as a trace of blood that had not yet dried up.
"Come with me." He stood up from where he was. Following the reaction in his heart, Adil walked to his house, found some bones and meat, and placed them outside.
This seems to have become a habit. After seeing the bones piled up outside the door, the black dog no longer roared, but squatted there quietly, drinking clean water while gnawing on the bones and
minced meat.
Quietly stroking the hair on the black dog's body, feeling this subconscious movement, Adil frowned and also thought about the current situation.
"The legendary lost city cannot be found by ordinary people. Only the former owners of this city or those who are dying can enter."
Thinking of this, Adil lowered his head and thought: "This legend should be true, but when Leon and I came in, we didn't feel any obstacles and entered this place smoothly."
"There is no obstacle, which means that Leon and I are both people who meet the entry criteria...that is, the so-called former masters of this city..."
Sitting there quietly, thinking about the information about the Lost City in his mind, the chill in Adil's eyes grew stronger.
His body is still very healthy. Not only is he only twelve years old, there is no pain on his body. He does not meet the standards of a dying person.
Then the only one that meets the conditions is undoubtedly the other one.
"The curse of the past will spread along the bloodline..." Inexplicably, Adil suddenly thought of this sentence in his mind.
When he just looked up this sentence, he was still a little confused, but now, after actually entering here, he probably understands what is going on.
"Amuri Yala, Sim Yala, and Gerson and Kolar have similar looks."
Thinking about all the known clues, Adil fell into thinking: "The former owners of this city, literally speaking, should be the former residents of this city."
"Only the former master of this city can enter. This condition may refer to bloodline."
He slowly raised his head: "Only the descendants of the residents of this city can follow the bloodline and enter this city."
"And Leon and I should meet this condition."
This is just a rough inference, but at present, it seems that the possibility is not small.
It is very simple to verify this inference, just find another entrant.
If the condition is met once, it can be said to be a coincidence, but if it is met twice in a row, the accuracy of the inference will undoubtedly improve a lot.
"Lyon's last name, Karadis..."
With various thoughts flashing through his mind, he touched the black dog's injured forehead, then stood up and walked towards the house.
In the old house, Senger was busy inside, rummaging through boxes and cabinets from time to time, and placing some dusty chores neatly.
"Callatis, this surname is rare in this area. He should live in Xixiang in the north of the city."
In the room, Senge was a little surprised when he heard Adil's question: "Why do you ask this?"
I don't know if it was an illusion, but at the moment Adil asked the question, the expression on his face seemed to change slightly, and his eyes became much colder.
This change is very weak and disappears completely the next moment, making it difficult to detect under normal circumstances.
Seeing these changes silently, Adil frowned secretly, but smiled calmly on the surface: "I have undoubtedly heard this surname before, so I came over to ask, but I didn't expect it to be true..."
"No! You lied!" A strong hoarse voice forcibly disrupted Adil's words.
At this moment, Senger's face changed drastically, and the originally gentle expression on his face was instantly filled with strong resentment and hatred. One of his original black eyes emitted a strange light, staring firmly at Adil in front of him.
It's like looking at your life-and-death enemy.
A huge pressure came from before my eyes, with a faint sense of danger.
Feeling this, Adil frowned secretly, looking at Senger in front of him, and his vigilance suddenly reached its peak.
The next moment, as if he realized his gaffe, the strange expression on Senge's face disappeared in an instant. The original resentment and hatred on his face disappeared in an instant, leaving only a gentle look on his face and a pair of black eyes that didn't look like anything.
It was so weird before.
"Be careful on the road."
Seemingly knowing what Adier was going to do, Senge said this calmly, then turned around and went to sort out the things in the house.
Behind him, Adil stared at Senger's busy back for a long time, then turned and left.
"The feeling just now is somewhat similar to the curse I encountered before, but it is also a little different..."
Walking quietly on the road, thinking about his reaction at that moment, Adil frowned: "It was normal before, why did it suddenly explode at this time?"
