"It's unbelievable." Bedivere, who was walking behind Arthur, hummed. At first, he thought it was impossible, but now the evidence is conclusive. The underground maze of warrior tombs they are walking in now is indeed the one they walked in nine hundred years ago.
The underground labyrinth of the warrior's tomb in the original world. Even the path was memorized by Arthur, exactly. In this case, who can deny it?
"But I don't understand." Bedivere asked again: "Why does this world also have the same warrior grave? This is obviously a different world where the photon civilization cannot keep up with our world. The people in this world are obviously still backward.
The enchanted mortal iron comes to attack them, and they don’t even have firearms------"
"I heard Merlin say it before," Arthur replied: "The so-called [gravity of the space-time axis], or [the self-correction ability of the world], or [the convergence of world lines]--"
----No matter how many names are changed, the things to be expressed are actually the same. Certain major events that are bound to happen in history, no matter how many changes are made, no matter how many different worlds are in them,
What is going to happen will still happen. The existence of warrior graves may also follow the same principle."
"I never knew that the existence of the Warriors' Tomb was such a major event that had such a profound impact on history..." Bedivere hummed.
"Perhaps, the complexity of [Kama (destiny) reincarnation] is far beyond the understanding of us mortals." Arthur paused after speaking: "Uh, turn left ahead. Follow me."
The mechanism in front is very complicated, and you must follow the correct order to pass safely. If you take even half a step wrong, you may be severely injured by the spike trap buried in the floor."
"Yeah." Bedivere agreed with a groan. He was supposed to lead the way to ensure that Arthur would not be in danger in this underground maze of warrior tombs full of traps. Unexpectedly, his position was now reversed.
Bedivere, who should have relied on his keen sense of smell to detect danger, could not help at all. Instead, King Arthur relied on his skilled back to lead the great white wolf Bedivere into the depths of the warrior's tomb.
How embarrassing.
Speaking of which, how long has King Arthur explored the underground labyrinth of the warrior's tomb, and how carefully must he have explored it, to have such proficient backplate technology? The [Sword of the King] hidden in the deepest part of the warrior's tomb has obviously been
King Arthur pulled it away. Apart from a lot of murder traps, there should be nothing worth exploring in this warrior's tomb, right? Why do people in Great Britain organize exploration teams again and again to venture deep into this maze?
Suicide?
Could it be that there are some unsolved mysteries and unexplored treasures hidden in this warrior’s tomb?
Although he was a coward, the big white wolf still followed the blond boy obediently, passing through the dangerous spike trap array in front of him step by step. When he was about to completely pass through the trap, he was distracted and took a step off, and his right hind leg was missing.
He was injured by the highly poisonous spikes that poured out from the ground at a moment's notice. But because Arthur had reminded Bedivere of the existence of this spike trap in the past, the big white wolf knew that he had made the wrong move, and his legs shrunk.
He was so fast that he managed to avoid being hurt by the spikes.
"My skills have become slow, Bedi." Arthur, who had already passed the spike trap formation, couldn't help but mocked: "The route has been pointed out for you. If you follow the prescribed route, you will still go wrong, and you will almost get hurt by the poisonous spikes."
You should feel ashamed if you lose your life."
"I'm not ashamed," the big white wolf stuck out his tongue: "The body I'm using now is subtly different from the original werewolf body, and it's a bit uncomfortable to control it. Don't you have a similar feeling, Arthur?"
"No. I'm completely used to this body." The King of Knights moved his slender young arms and replied easily.
Is it so easy to get used to it? Bedivere couldn't help but wonder.
The King Arthur of the original world nine hundred years ago was actually a quasi-middle-aged man in his late thirties. The thin but well-trained uncle was different from the old man nine hundred years later who was so thin that he seemed to fall over if the wind blew.
There is a big difference in body shape between the blond boy under the boy. Arthur who came from that world, how could he "get used to" operating this boy's body so easily? I always feel that this is very dangerous. Could it be that Arthur's "identity" has gradually changed?
Confused?
If he had completely forgotten his identity as King Arthur in the original world and considered himself a resident of this world, then he would not care about Greenville's future and would have to find a way to get Merlin to send Arthur back no matter what.
"Pay attention." Arthur's words interrupted Bedivere's thoughts, "If we walk a short distance further, we will soon reach the center of the underground labyrinth of the Warrior's Tomb. We don't know what is waiting for us there.
It's best to be mentally prepared."
"Yeah." Bedivere nodded. What else could be in the center of the maze? If Bedivere remembers correctly, there is a huge hollow structure in the center of the maze, a battlefield specially vacated for the decisive battle.
.On that battlefield, there was another huge dragon demon statue.
At that time, Arthur and his party also defeated the Dragon Golem before they were qualified to draw the Sword of the King. No, saying "defeat" is not accurate. Arthur just jumped into the cockpit of the Dragon Golem's chest.
It's the same place, just forcing the thing to shut down.
The adventurous years of their youth are really nostalgic. Although Arthur and the others have long since erased the existence of [Bedivere] from their memories.
Under Arthur's guidance, they easily passed through three or four groups of deadly traps in front of them, and reached the corridor connecting the center of the maze. However, the road in front of that corridor was covered by a mysterious black smoke.
"As expected." Arthur hummed.
"really......?"
"Didn't I tell you before, Bedivere." Arthur frowned: "When our investigation team investigated the underground maze of warrior tombs in the original world nine hundred years ago, we often found many such mazes blocked by black smoke.
From the structure of the maze, these roads are probably connected to upward stairs. It is precisely because of these black smoke obstructions that our exploration team has never been able to explore the upper level of the warrior tombs in our world. So far,
I don’t know what’s going on at the top. Now there’s this smoke again. Damn it, is this a dead end?”
"Squeak!" the bird lying above Bediwell's head suddenly shouted and flew up.
"Oh thank God, this damn bird finally didn't give up nesting on my head." Bedivere complained.
"Shh, Bedi!" Arthur saw some clues and immediately interrupted the big white wolf: "Quietly watch!"
"ha?"
The little red bird was seen hovering in the air for a while, flapping its pitifully small wings laboriously, looking very tired. Despite this, it still hit the black smoke blocking the way.
The black smoke barrier that was originally impenetrable was actually knocked out of a hole by a mysterious bird. This hole caused instability in the barrier, and its gap gradually expanded until the entire barrier disappeared.
"There is such an operation..." Bedivere snorted.
"I knew that with this little guy, something good would always happen." Arthur smiled and said, "Although the road is open, we don't know when it will be closed again. Let's go quickly!"
The big white wolf nodded in agreement and rushed over with the blond boy.
Although the smoke blocking the road temporarily dissipated under the impact of the red bird, there was actually a large mass of vague, thin and cold fog in front of them. When Bediwell passed through this fog, he only felt that his spine was shaking.
Liang had a very bad premonition. But they finally made it through, passing through the corridor and arriving at the center battlefield of the underground labyrinth of the Warriors Tomb in an instant.
In that large, open, dark and inexplicable place, there was another smoke-like thing blocking their way. This smoke was not as thick as the black smoke that blocked the road before. Although people could not pass through, they could see through the smoke.
To the scene on the other side.
"Liar...!" Arthur stopped.
"This...!" Bedivere also stopped. What happened on the other side of the smoke wall shocked the two of them.
"Stop!------" the black-haired boy shouted, punching the control panel of the huge dragon golem with both fists.
Then, the giant golem, which was fighting the crowd fiercely, finally stopped moving.
"What is this...!?" Arthur looked at what was happening in the center of the field from a distance and took a few steps back.
"Impossible...!" The big white wolf also took a few steps back.
On the opposite side of the smoke wall, in the battlefield, a group of people are fighting [Dragon Golem------Steel Sky Dragon], overcoming the final difficulty of this warrior's tomb!
That group of people was the adventure team formed by Arthur back then! Among them were Arthur, Kai, Ivan, Lianyin, and even Bedivere was among them!
"Arthur, lie down!" Bedivere felt something was wrong and quickly asked Arthur, the blond boy here, to hide. It happened that there was a big rock next to them that was big enough for the two of them to hide, so they hid behind the rock.
Not only can you avoid the eyes of people in the distance, but you can also observe everything secretly.
As expected, that group of people was indeed Arthur's group who came to get the sword nine hundred years ago. After they shut down the Iron Sky Dragon, they began to discuss the matter of getting the sword. At that time, Arthur and Kai, who were still young, had an affair.
There were many disputes, and they were finally reconciled after a big quarrel. Arthur didn't even come for the King's Sword at first. It was Kai who wanted to get the sword, so Arthur reluctantly followed his adopted brother.
.
As a result, the red-haired boy Kai tried to draw the sword but couldn't. After he turned into a giant, he tried to draw the sword again but couldn't and gave up completely.
Then it was the turn of the werewolf boy Bedivere to try to pull out the ancient sword fixed on the anvil. As a result, the werewolf boy used the madness technique to make himself bigger and stronger, but he still couldn't pull out the sword. The ancient sword was fixed on the anvil.
There was almost no movement on the anvil, which even made people wonder if the ancient sword was cast as one with the anvil, and that all this was a huge scam.
The person who can pull this ancient sword out of the anvil is the legitimate heir to the throne of Pantoraken? Are you kidding me?
Then it was the turn of the half-dragon boy Yiwen. The guy couldn't pull it out after a while, so he gave up easily.
Then it was the turn of the Patimo girl Lian Yin. Lian Yin even wanted to use magic to destroy the anvil and the sword together, but everyone hurriedly stopped her.
Finally, under Kai's coercion, the black-haired boy Arthur reluctantly went over to draw the sword. To everyone's surprise, the ancient sword easily separated from the anvil and was pulled away by Arthur.
It was as if all this was destined. It was as if the Holy Sword had chosen Arthur to be the king of Pantoraken (today's Great Britain) from the very beginning.
All of this is "history", history that Arthur and the others have witnessed with their own eyes. Now observing all of this from a distance, observing history repeating itself, it is really an incredible feeling. (To be continued)
