Abandoned and dilapidated towns, deep pits, and hollows leading to the deepest part of the earth.
This is the hometown of Stan Tito, the second-generation saint, and the town of Tito where craftsmen once gathered.
here.
It was also the place where the Queen of Stars and the Angel Polo lived.
But now there is nothing left, only ruins.
There is a newly built fishing village not far away, and there may be some familiar faces in it, but neither they nor their descendants will probably take craftsmanship as a profession again.
Sandian felt extremely sad and sighing.
He once stood on the temple in the sky and thought that he was the protagonist of the era.
But at this moment, standing in the ruins, he suddenly felt his own insignificance.
Because compared to the Queen of the Stars, the Divine Envoy Polo and Stan Tito, who is he?
Even their traces are disappearing little by little, and he is destined to be just a small wave in the torrent of the times.
Hundreds of years later, a thousand years later.
Who else can remember themselves?
"All traces of the glory and prosperity of the past will eventually be erased with the birth of new things."
"Even those epics and legends recorded in words by craftsmen are destined to be forgotten little by little as time goes by."
In front of the collapsed wall, the three people looked towards the sea.
Sandian asked two students: "Have you ever been to the sea?"
"We may go to a very far place this time, a country outside of Xiinsai."
Haru was a little scared: "Sir Sandian, let's not go!"
"I heard that the depths of the sea are full of monsters."
Sandian asked him somewhat amusedly: "Have you ever seen a monster?"
Haru shook his head: "But they look different from us. I heard they are very scary. They also like to eat clover people."
Sandian asked him again: "Are you a monster if you look different from us?"
Haru didn't quite understand: "Isn't it?"
Sandian pressed his head: "You have to see it yourself, Haru."
"Never completely listen to other people's words. The truth and facts must be explored by yourself."
"Just like the knowledge I teach you, you can listen, but you have to study it seriously."
"But don't take anything I say as truth."
"The truth behind the knowledge needs to be uncovered by your own hands."
Haru seemed to understand but Lan En was thoughtful.
The lessons for students begin as early as when they embark on this journey.
The three people used ritual magic to build a ten-meter-long ship, raised the white sails and set sail.
In the process of building the ship, Haru and Lan also learned several ritual spell formations and extensions of the basic ritual spell arrays.
For example, the various changes derived from the Iron Ritual Array, according to the changes in sacrificial materials and shapes, can eventually produce a variety of metals.
They set off from the City of God's Descendation and embarked on the Jessel route. Sandian wanted to follow the path that the great poet walked.
This is Stan Tito's dream.
It's a pity that he still couldn't make it until he returned to the kingdom of God.
Sandian's ship caused a lot of noise along the way, and met several people of the Demon Abyss on the way. However, because of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Henir Dynasty and the Kingdom of the Demon Abyss, the two sides were not as tense as before.
There have been caravans of the Sanye people heading to the Kingdom of Demonic Abyss before, but the other party did not have such a thing as a ship.
Haru also gradually discovered that these "monsters" seemed not as scary as the legends said.
They can communicate, they have families, and they have intelligence and emotions just like them.
They would also exchange food with Sandian and the others, and the civilians of the Demonic Abyss were very happy when they got some crude pottery from them.
It wasn't until they entered the Sara Territory of the Demonic Abyss that they felt hostility.
Their ship was surrounded by a group of soldiers from the Kingdom of Demonic Abyss, led by a female Demonic Abyss Knight.
The other party directly used its intelligence power to communicate with the three people on the ship, and sent them an expulsion signal in a cold voice.
"The Hinsai people are not welcome here. You have entered territory that does not belong to you."
"Get out of here quickly."
Sandian stood on the bow of the boat and glanced at the Demon Abyss Knight floating on the water, and he vaguely guessed the other party's identity.
"You are the lord of Sarah Territory."
"You are a descendant of Sarah, who once inflicted suffering on the great poet, and a descendant of the order of the first king of the Demon Abyss."
"I still know."
"Prince Weiss of the Huosen family came to look for the sacred ship and caused harm to you, so you are so hostile to us."
The face of the female Demonic Abyss Knight became even more ugly: "What exactly do you want to say? Do you want to talk about the past grudges between us, or do you want to highlight the current hatred."
Sandian shook his head: "I just want to say that everything is over."
"Everything that ever happened was God's will. Without the guidance of God's messengers, the great poet would not have come here."
"Without experiencing this suffering, it would have been impossible for him to become a companion with the first-generation King of the Demonic Abyss, let alone to meet the gods."
"And Weiss Hotson also suffered the most terrible retribution for his evil deeds."
"Whether it was past or present, grudges and hatred are no longer there."
He looked at the female Demonic Abyss Knight seriously, his eyes full of reason and indifference.
"Descendants of Sarah, times have changed."
"The King of the Demonic Abyss and the King of Xiinsai have signed an alliance. You don't have to be so hostile to us and Xiinsai."
The female Demonic Abyss Knight's face looked better, and she looked at Sandian.
"who are you?"
Sandian: "I am a student of Stan Tito, a second-generation saint, and an heir to his will and ideals."
When the female Demon Abyss Knight heard this identity, her expression changed instantly.
She looked at Sandian with disbelief.
Even in the Kingdom of Demonic Abyss, they knew what happened in Xiinsai.
Another saint appeared in Hinsa, a descendant of the great poet.
They also knew that a slave named Sandian had received the miraculous power given by God, and the entire country of Xiinsai was bathed in the light of God again.
They created a variety of miraculous things from the power given by God.
Many of those miraculous things have flowed into the Kingdom of Demonic Abyss through trade, and some of the female Demonic Abyss Knights have also seen them.
Exquisite pottery, hard ironware, luxurious gold and silverware, and I heard there are also things like oil and fabrics.
Each one is so magical, not inferior to the mortal world at all.
Everyone said that these were miraculous things in the dreams of the gods.
The female Demon Abyss Knight also thinks so.
Only the dreams of gods can have such a miracle.
She came forward in shock and carefully looked at Sandian's appearance.
His burqa and the slave brand exposed at the collar. Once some people become successful, they try their best to cover up their past, but Sandian is obviously another type. He does not hide his identity as a slave at all.
.
The Demonic Abyss Knight finally confirmed: "Are you Sandian, the chief priest of the Sky Temple?"
"The legendary heir to the will of the great poet and saint Stan, the Sandian who went to the land of fairies to obtain the power of miracles?"
Sandian: "I am no longer the chief priest of the Temple of the Sky. I am just a traveler who follows the footsteps of the great poet and the route of Jessel."
The Knight of the Demonic Abyss bent down: "Heir to the will of the saint, please forgive me for my offense."
Then she immediately asked the soldiers to move out of the way and did not stop Sandian again.
Sandian's ship entered the Sarah Territory.
He finally saw the island where the great poet suffered in "The Last Chapter", which was also called the Island of the Dead by the people of the Demon Abyss.
The ship docked at the shore, and there were strange stone piles erected on this island just like the rumors.
What is different from the rumors is that there are statues of the first King of the Demonic Abyss and the great poet on it, which should have been erected by the Sara family.
Sandian walked around the island and then said.
“Let’s just choose here!”
Haru looked around and felt a little strange: "Choose here? It's too desolate here."
"There is not a single Sanye person here. Where can we recruit priests?"
Lan En said: "I think it's nice here, at least it's very quiet."
Sandian nodded: "It is precisely because this place is far away from Xiinsai that it will not be interfered by rights or other people."
"Here, everyone can delve into magical arts and knowledge without being affected by the outside world."
"As for no one."
Sandian looked at his two students. Haru, who had been following him all the time, might not understand very well, but Lan En would definitely understand the desire of the low-level priests for magical knowledge.
"I believe in those who want to become spiritual priests and seek truth and knowledge."
"Even if we are separated by mountains and sea, we will still find this place."
Although he said that, Sandian had already thought about how to guide the young priests who wanted to seek truth and knowledge to come here.
