It was dusk at this time, and the seawater overflowed the highest point, and then slowly retreated downwards, leaving many seaweeds and crustaceans that had no time to catch up with the ebbing tide on the pale golden beach.
This scene was not unfamiliar to her. When she first came to the El Continent, it was also an evening, and the beach was illuminated by the setting sun. But compared to her memory, the beach in front of her looked strangely deserted.
At that time, many Kamal people who lived by the sea lived on the seaside. At this time, fishermen returning from the sea came to the beach to catch the sea - as well as women, old people and children playing, coming and going.
The crowd is bustling, and occasionally someone loudly shows off their harvest of the day, making the beach full of life.
But now, apart from her, no Kamal people can be seen nearby. That's not because they have never set foot here: the rotten wooden piles still stand crookedly on the shore, and the fishing boats that should be tied to them have disappeared.
.
She walked forward leisurely. The vast coastline stretched for hundreds of miles, and there were many beaches or ports suitable for human habitation. Soon, another beach came into view-this time it was occupied by people.
But they are not the Kamal people, but the Fritz people who can live in the sea for a long time and also live on land. They are wearing lightweight sharkskin armor, and it seems that they do not intend to stay on the beach, but go straight to the sea.
Jill hurried over and easily intercepted the last person before several people fell into the water.
"What are you going to do?" she asked, applying a little mental magic. "And where are the humans around the southern beach?"
The Fritz man planned to resist at first, but the spell quickly took effect, and his eyes relaxed at first, and then became full of respect.
"Report sir." He said respectfully, "We are preparing to mobilize more tribesmen living in the sea and let them fight to rule the mainland. As for the Kamal people in the south... of course they have all been cleared. Please
rest assured."
The black-haired woman nodded, "Thank you for your hard work. By the way, what year and time is it now?"
This question was obviously very unusual, but the Fritz people still answered respectfully: "On the thirty-second day of the second month of the seventh year of King Darren, my lord... Of course, according to the calendar of those on earth, it seems to be,
Leon calendar two hundred and forty... how many years ago?"
This was enough for Jill to make a judgment. She came to the historical continent of El, when Huruman Stark was still in this world. This is nothing to be surprised about - because this was a choice she made herself.
"I don't know where the others went." The black-haired woman said to herself, "I hope they went back safely. Then, it's time for me to get on my way."
She patted the Fritz man on the shoulder and asked him to continue completing his mission. Then she looked in the direction of the land, snapped her fingers, and disappeared in an instant.
…
"Miss, miss! Are you okay?"
Anxious shouts woke An up from her uncomfortable sleep. She raised her hand, covered her still dizzy forehead, slowly opened her eyes, and then saw Elio's face close at hand.
She breathed lightly for a moment, stretched out a hand, and asked the young knight to help her sit up. Then she reached into her arms and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that the notebook and charcoal pen she had always carried were still there.
"How long have you been awake? Where are you?" An wrote in the notebook, "Where are the others?"
"I don't know, Miss." Elio replied with some worry, "After I walked through that door, I appeared here, with you unconscious on the side. As for the others... I haven't had time to go.
Look for it!" He looked around, "There seems to be some smoke over there, let's go over and ask about it?"
The girl stood up slowly, trying to calm down her still dizzy mind - it seemed that passing through the "Mirror Realm" had a greater impact on her than passing through the door to another world. This was due to the Mirror Realm itself.
characteristics, or does it mean that she has traveled a 'further' distance?
She recalled her little thoughts before stepping into the mirror, and couldn't help but expect the answer to be the latter.
"Let's go, I hope everyone else is safe. Before we meet again, we must take care of ourselves." After writing this, she put the notebook and pen into her arms, gently held Elio's arm, and said to her, who seemed to have
Walk in the direction of the crowd.
…
"Hey, let me tell you, this is really a great adventure, don't you think so, little girl?" Bell patted his chest and said to Elena with a blush on his face, "When I get back to Volcano Castle, I'll have to take good care of myself.
Drink three large cups of it, and then tell this story to my admirers!"
"Right now, we have more important things than this..." Elena stood up and patted the dust on her clothes, "Where have Lily and the others gone?"
She turned her head to the other side, just in time to see Grum and Ariel walking side by side.
"It's great that you are okay!" Old Beyron's loud voice came from dozens of meters away, "I thought I might not be able to explain this time. In order to celebrate this, I have to find a place.
Have something to drink!"
Sure enough, the way the Belon people celebrate is drinking, Elena thought to herself. She doesn't have much preference for alcoholic beverages, but she can't say she has a dislike for them. As for drinking with the two people, she was unscathed.
'After getting Bell drunk once, it never happened again - probably because the Bellon people felt that losing to a twenty-year-old Kamal girl in terms of drinking capacity was a bit embarrassing.
She simply said hello to the two people who came and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
This seems to be a small hill on the outskirts of the city. Looking down from the top of the hill, you can see the wide road leading to the city, as well as the carriages and people passing by. Through the outer wall that is not too high, you can see the towering tower in the center of the city.
The church spire, and the circular holy emblem - that is the symbol of Saint Leonos, the "Lord of Light".
"It seems we are pretty lucky." The young nun said to herself. However, at the same moment, Bell suddenly shouted, scaring her back from what she wanted to say next.
"W-what did you say??!!"
"I can feel Lord Stark's breath." Ariel's voice was firm and firm, "Yes, Lord Stark is still alive in this era."
Elena turned her head and happened to hear the female Celestial Clan say such words.
"I want to find the adults and complete the unfinished tasks for my 'future' self." Ariel said, "I'm sorry to hinder your return, but this is a mission I must do."
Bell looked at Elena, then at Grum, and then wailed.
"This... what the hell is this! Hurry up and go down and find a place to have a drink, otherwise... otherwise, how can you continue to do this!"
The young nun couldn't help but laugh out loud. Probably those who can relax in this way can be considered a true Belonite.
…
"Lilinono? Lily? Where are you?"
In the silence and darkness, Alphonse's voice sounded. However, no one responded to him.
"Turn on the detection system...Self-inspection report: No damage, internal organs are intact, vision components are intact, hearing components are intact, language components are intact, nervous system is intact...everything is normal."
"Judgment: The star realm can communicate... Positioning: ξ3351, θ1290, ψ764... Query address... Record exists, common name: Al."
After a burst of semi-mechanized detection information, the machine man shook his body slightly, seeming to have regained a bit of "humanity".
"It seems that we successfully left that demiplane." He scratched his head in confusion, "But, where is this place? Where have everyone else gone?"
Still no one answered him.
"Attempting precise positioning...connecting to the star realm...unknown interference, positioning failed."
The agent sighed and put his right hand on his forehead, "It seems that someone doesn't want me to leave here, Lilino." He turned his head left and right, "Anyway, let's make this place a little brighter first."
Milky white light lit up in the palm of the machine man's left hand. Through the spreading light, Alphonse saw that he seemed to be in a simple cabin. The room was equipped with tables, chairs, cabinets, and even a fireplace.
, everything is as clean as new, but there is no sense of being inhabited.
The agent walked to the window and looked out, but all he could see was darkness. He tried pushing the window, but it was locked.
Just when he was about to try some other methods, the room was suddenly filled with soft orange light, and the surroundings seemed to feel warm all of a sudden. Alphonse blinked and found a man with long light purple hair standing in front of him.
A young woman. She tilted her head playfully and raised her hand to greet him.
"Who are you?" she asked.
Alphonse touched his nose, "Who are you?" He looked at the other person curiously, "Is this your home?"
"Well... you can put it this way." The young woman clapped her hands and lit a warm flame in the fireplace, "I know, sister Alicia must have sent you here. In this case...
"
She walked to the dining table, created a pot of tea and exquisite snacks out of thin air on the table, then pulled out a chair and sat down.
"Let's have a cup of tea together?" She said with a smile, "Tell me your story by the way."
