Soul of Burning Steel

Buzz, what is it?

Didn't the maid just change the quilt and sheets before? Could it be that something was left accidentally during the cleaning process?

Joshua didn’t give much thought, he just lifted the quilt up. Hotaru is still asleep and wearing clothes, and there is really nothing worth seeing, so the soldier does not squint, but directly looks at the buzzing sound. Where.

Joshua's eyesight is not considered top in this world, it is also considered top-notch. Just looking at it with the naked eye can achieve an effect similar to energy vision. He glanced attentively, and easily found the source of the buzzing.

Before the girl fell asleep, the magic was concentrated in a women’s military dress. This dress had two pockets at the waist for small gadgets. At this time, there seemed to be something in the pocket on the right side of Hotaru. Constantly shaking, the frequency is very high.

Joshua simply reached out to touch her pocket and grabbed this thing.

"It feels like I have suddenly become a very bad person."

The soldier shrugged and thought about it carefully. Whether it is lifting the girl's quilt or taking out the little things in her personal pocket while the girl is sleeping, it is indeed a very bad thing.

The unidentified object that was vibrating constantly was pulled out of Firefly’s pocket, but it is strange that the high-frequency vibrating object stopped shaking when it touched Joshua’s finger. At the same time, the warrior also felt A strange force suddenly appeared, wandering in the palm of his hand, as if he wanted to enter his body.

"what."

With anger in his hand, isolating the strange power, Qiao Xiu looked down at the palm of his hand.

It was a translucent polyhedral crystal, with black and red light flowing in the thumb-sized crystal, and the slight light flashing along countless small slices, like stars.

"Such a beautiful gem? Where did Hotaru get it?"

Suspiciously muttering to himself, the warrior held the gem in front of his eyes and examined it carefully: "The quality is also very high. Where does it come from whether it is a cut surface or a crystal quality that is above the level?"

The miraculous girl always follows behind him on weekdays, and when she barely acts alone, where does the time come to buy, or do we get gems of this level? And just now, an inexplicable force was uploaded from this crystal. What is going on?

"interesting."

Squinting his eyes, Qiao Xiu couldn't help but have an association in his heart.

Does Hotaru's coma have something to do with this gem?

Although it sounds ridiculous, it is indeed one of the possibilities, and since it is possible, he will not let it go.

So a low voice sounded.

"System, identification."

Suddenly, countless blue data streams flashed before his eyes, and finally condensed into a report.

In item identification, the determination of mineral knowledge is successful, the determination of ancient knowledge fails, and the determination of strange object knowledge fails.

Appraisal report: Infested ancient crystal of steel

Minerals: The power of steel is one of the foundations of material existence. It combines with other energies in the world to form everything that all beings see today. Except for certain pure spiritual and energy lives, the power of steel is contained in the body of any life. At some strange moments, such as the beginning of the creation of the world, when the world is on the verge of destruction, the power of steel, the most basic force, will be condensed into solid crystals and scattered everywhere. It may form any form, but it is extremely large. Part of the time appears in the form of gems. The Crystal of Steel is one of the important raw materials for forging equipment above the legendary level, and the weapons forged from it will possess all kinds of incredible abilities.

Ancient: This crystal of steel has existed for more than 1,300 years.

Strange thing: This crystal of steel comes from another world, and it is infested by some kind of power. Contact with it may have some sequelae.

Synthesis: A rare ore from another world, cherished extremely, but with a certain peculiar power, you need to consider carefully before using it.

"It's actually the crystallization of steel?"

Frowning, Joshua murmured. He turned the black-red crystal in his hand and looked at it several times: "I haven't seen this thing before, but isn't the crystal of steel a silver-gray gem? Why is it red and black now?"

The reason for that unknown power impregnation? possible.

"Although Firefly is usually a human form, but in the final analysis, it is also a magical machine and a weapon." Joshua thought about the information revealed in these appraisal reports: "She was exposed to this crystal of steel, and the impact must be greater than that of humans."

Maybe the fireflies have fallen asleep until now because of the strange power brought by this crystal of steel, and it can also explain some of the information that Kleel and Nostradamus said, such as the stagnant power of steel and the inexplicable chaotic aura. some type of.

After thinking for a while, Joshua turned her head to look at the silver-haired **** the bed. Hotaru is now sleeping peacefully, breathing smoothly, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

If everything is the same as he thought, then there is no doubt that that inexplicable force is the main cause.

"Should try what this power will bring."

The warrior's idea was not a recklessness, but a deliberate choice.

"My resistance is stronger than that of Firefly, and if it doesn't work, I can start the gods to descend from the earth to expel the bad state. There will be no accidents."

Thinking of this, he let go of the shielding of the vindictive opponent Zhong Spar, allowing the power contained in it to touch his body.

Then, Joshua's vision fell into chaos.

Fog, and darkness.

When Joshua broke away from the guidance of that inexplicable force with a steely will, what he saw when he opened his eyes was such a sight.

Barren hills full of gray-black rocks, huge rocky mountains faintly visible in the fog, dry and depleted ground, grotesque rocks in the crystalline jungle full of shadows, and in the extremely dark and clouded sky, there is only a little sun faint Light.

After taking a breath of decayed air, the soldier felt it, and his surroundings were filled with the power of stagnant steel that made him familiar, but extremely uncomfortable.

The weird atmosphere spread silently, and Joshua looked around seriously, but found nothing. Although the fog mixed with thick black particles could not block his full vision, it could obscure all the information brought from a distance, and the darkness seemed like darkness. It can move, and is slowly converging towards the soldier.

Where is it here?

Boom!

Just as this thought flashed through Joshua's mind, a sudden thunder sounded.

This is a dead place where no one survives, a wasteland where everything is destroyed, this is the doomsday world where the light dissipates, the flames extinguish, and sinks into the abyss of bottomless chaos.

A strange voice seemed to be indistinct, and also answered his question at the same time, but it was not noticed by the soldier.

Along with thunder, light burst into the gray sky, and the dim lightning released a little light, and countless rain-like translucent particles fell from the sky and washed away the fog.

Reaching out his hand and receiving a translucent particle, Joshua found that this kind of object that seemed to be ice and crystal brought an incomparable chill, but it would not melt. He threw the particle on the ground, and then raised his head. , Look into the distance.

Due to the gray-black mist around him being driven away by the crystalline rain, the soldier's vision suddenly widened, and at the hills at the end of his line of sight, at least ten kilometers away, there was an ancient and huge temple ruin.

The door of the temple was completely open, and the walls collapsed almost halfway. I don't know how long the sanctuary was covered by dust and crystals.

A shadow flickered.

"It seems someone is moving?"

Because it is too far away, even Joshua can't be sure if what he saw just now is an illusion. He frowned and looked around: "Although I don't know why I came to this place, I will go and take a look. "

After determining the path that should be taken halfway, the soldiers set out.

The thunder stopped, and the crystalline rain gradually weakened, and gray-black fog once again emerged from the depths of the earth, covering the surroundings.

time flies.

Woo

A whistle that can penetrate the sky sounded in the far distance, and then passed to Joshua’s ears, who was walking through the dark on the path of his middle-aged memory. This made the soldiers stunned, but then, as if The sound of some huge object moving overwhelmed the whistle, which was like the sound of a machine running and gears biting.

"Boom!"

There was another flash of thunder, illuminating the gray mist, allowing Joshua to see the inside of the temple that was already very close.

This time the warrior was able to confirm that there was indeed a figure wandering in confusion among the ruins of this temple.

As if to notice something outside, the figure walked out of the temple. Behind the temple's open ancient door, silver hair seemed to flash past.

Seeing this scene, Joshua stayed for a while, and then said in surprise: "Yahoo?"

Afterwards, the soldier's will regained his sobriety.

As if waking up from a dream, Joshua's eyes were still a little confused at first, but then he immediately returned to Qingming. He immediately used his vindictive energy to wrap the crystal of steel in his hand to isolate the power from invading it.

"Just now, was it an illusion?"

Joshua, who was sure that his body was still sitting on Firefly's bed, did not even move at all, and had eliminated the possibility of his body passing through, with a solemn expression, thinking about the dreamlike experience before.

It's not an illusion.

The soldier looked at the palm of his left hand. The decadent and uncomfortable smell of air and the cold temperature of the crystalline rain made him remember deeply. This is definitely not something that an illusion can do. He whispered to himself softly: "Just now That shadow, is it Hotaru?"

She fell into that dream too?

Standing up in silence, Joshua lowered her head and took a deep look at Ying Ying's sleeping beautiful face.

Is this the truth about Yingying's delay in waking up?

"It seems that things are more complicated than I thought, so I can only try to see if the method Nostradamus said will work ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ the next day.

The cemetery in the west of the city, in the church.

Joshua, wearing a black military uniform, was standing in the study room of this cemetery church. He stepped on the black granite floor, glanced at the golden fluorite shards on the ceiling, and then walked towards the special piece with cracks. The floor is located.

Without any hesitation, he put his hand on it.

The magic pattern flashed, and a low and rigid machine sounded.

"The energy detection frequency band is in line, and the target: Joshua Fanradcliffe, the family head, the highest authority, the door is open."

"From fire, born of steel, wisdom is immortal, and order is forever."

Following the ancient compliments, the black rock slowly opened, and a narrow passage leading to the ground emerged.

And Joshua walked into it without hesitation.

To be continued.
