Soul of Burning Steel

The sun rises and falls, and time goes by, and dusk envelopes the earth again.

Clouds surging, covering the stars and moon, the cold atmosphere spreads, and the chaos spreads.

Above the sky, the huge circle formed by ten rings interlocks and rotates like gears. In the middle of each halo, there is a [meaning] inscribed by ancient runes.

Floods, volcanoes, earthquakes, eternal nights, strong winds, meteorites, droughts, blizzards, tsunamis and dust.

The name of [Ten Plagues] flashes at the top of the sky, and now, the two brightest auras represent [Dust and Mist] and [Eternal Night]. Therefore, the smog composed of countless dust and the sky is covered by clouds. In the whole world, the muddy air has absorbed all the light.

Even the sun, moon and stars are dimmed.

Except for the roar of thunder in the night sky, there was no sound in the whole world, purple lightning shining across the earth, and the original cities and villages were left with pale ruins. Except for the most heavily defended province in the central bay, other areas were All fall.

Even the Central District was panicked due to the disappearance of the supreme leader, and they shrank completely, relying on the permanent fortifications on the mountains and underground to defend.

There was a tense atmosphere in the underground communication room. A correspondent shouted in vain on channels in other provinces, but they were destined to have no response. All that was left for them was their own response, sharp noise and meaninglessness. buzzing.

"This is the central area of ​​the Gulf. Call Delang Province, please respond!"

"This is the Gulf Central District, call Babel Province, please respond!"

"This is the bay..."

"..."

Gradually, all the correspondents stopped their actions. They looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and then closed the communication station with shaking hands.

These people have discovered a terrible truth-maybe they are the only ones left in this world.

In just three days and two nights, since the submarine volcano erupted in Sapphire Harbor, the Apocalypse Array came and brought countless stone demons, the entire world was captured by the power of chaos, millions of lives died in an instant, and the city was destroyed. , Civilization is trampled on, and there are no screams and wailings on the earth today, because all the voices have lost their lives, only the elves lingering in the shelter deep underground covered their mouths, shivering, desperately waiting for death to come. .

After the silently marching stone demons wiped out all the life on the surface, they began to move in a certain direction. Their paces were uniform, which made people fearful. The steps of magic puppets with tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of calculations vibrated like The earthquake made the earth tremble.

And their goal is the mountain range filled with blue light.

Origin mountain range.

And when most elves stayed in the last shelter, afraid to go out or even fight, there was a group of elves still wandering outside.

On the elite floating boat dedicated to the commander, the guards are still staying above the capital of the last dynasty. They are waiting for the return of the object of their allegiance, the supreme leader of the contemporary elven federation, Ulken Ulanor.

Just after the Great Commander disappeared into the depths of this ruin, it didn’t take long for a fresh wind to rise from the depths of the mountains, turning all the stone demons into stone statues full of vines and grass. They firmly believed that this vision was triggered by the Great Commander. He must have activated some ancient weapons left over from the Elven Dynasty that could not be activated due to lack of magic power while the elements are now dense.

Moreover, as the sacred place in the myths and legends of the Ilgna elves, the Origin Mountains must have some great secrets behind them. Although they did not believe in the mysterious rumors, they still had some subtle hopes.

But before the commander returned, these guards first discovered that a huge creature was advancing fast in the distance, but because of the dust and fog that filled the sky, they couldn't see what it was.

"What it is?"

"Stone Demon?"

"The stone demons should all be imprisoned..."

"It's not imprisoned? Isn't it a stone demon?"

They talked quickly with each other, but no one knew what the figure was hidden in the smoke and dust in the distance. At the beginning of the disaster, these guards came to the Origin Mountains with Urken. Naturally, they didn’t know what was happening outside. What happened.

Only one guard who had been following the commander vaguely guessed a possibility. He hesitated and said with some hesitation: "You said, could it be that?"

"What that?" The others asked blankly, and they urged: "Say it quickly."

Shaking his head and being urged by his companions, the guard could only say his own guess: "You said, could it be the dragon of the volcano?"

Joshua and his party have approached the Origin Mountain.

"This place is completely different from other places!"

Loranda quickly noticed the difference between this place and the rest of Ilgna's world. He stood up from his black back and looked around in surprise. Compared with other places full of dust, mist and cloud, and withered vegetation, the origin of the mountains. Full of the breath of life, whether it is the wind or the swaying vegetation and leaves, they are full of vitality, which makes the Paladin who has been in the chaos-eroded area for a long time feel suddenly from the dark shadow to the bright sunshine.

In addition, the blond paladin also discovered something strange-through the induction of the holy light, he noticed that countless souls were gathering from all directions, and then sank into the depths of the mountain range. Loranda couldn't help but remember that he was in What happened when Babel province rescued the local elves.

Although full of resentment towards the stone demon, the spirit's soul did not reside in the zone of his death, but was called away by some power. Now it seems that that power is located in the Origin Mountains, maybe it is Joe. The "Soul of the Forest" in Xiuya's mouth.

He didn't guess wrong.

Qiao Xiuya can also see the light floating in the sky. The souls of these elves after their death are full of unwillingness, helplessness, resentment and overwhelming. A few days ago, these people were still living a stable life, but now, they are all dead. , Died in the hands of the stone demon. Everything was so sudden that all the elves could not accept their own death. They would have become earth-bound spirits, resenting all living beings, but now they came here because of the guidance of the spirit of the forest.

In the faintly flickering blue light of life, the resentment of the wraith spirits was purified, and the pure soul sank into the earth, deep underground.

Hei also followed his instinctive guidance and galloped towards the center of the mountain. Between the jungles, you can vaguely see the remains of huge stone statues and the slab avenue that has long been covered by vines and moss. This is the capital of the elven dynasty. Where, even if no one has set foot for nearly a hundred years, there are still magnificent relics.

Soon after, they came to the ruins of a city that had been burned by fire.

The place is full of weeds, piles of charred stones and building remains, creepers and shrubs entangled on it, the wind whizzes through the ruins, and there is a stern noise between the piles of ruined walls.

"That's it."

Joshua issued instructions to stop Hei from running. He turned his head and looked around, and then said: "Now, we just have to wait."

"But there is only a ruin left here..."

Standing on the edge of the black back, the silver-haired girl frowned and looked around, but she found nothing except the remains of the tower and hall. Rin on the side was also observing, but he noticed something special with sharp eyes-among the ruins of a large hall, there was a huge statue, and the image of this statue seemed to be an ancient tree supporting the heavens and the earth. .

"Ancient tree?"

The teenager's mind is always a little faster than his sister, and he muttered to himself thoughtfully: "The soul of the forest..."

He seemed to guess something.

"When shall we wait?"

After more than ten minutes passed, Loranda couldn't help but feel a little anxious. His original patience was not so unbearable, but his anxious sense of crisis has always made him unable to wait at ease. Joshua shrugged, and he looked at the sky full of souls. Entering the earth, he calmly said: "Our friend is still dealing with some important things, don't worry, it has been watching us, as long as it is free to take action."

On the airship, the elves clearly saw Joshua and his party entering the Origin Mountain Range. They watched each other fast forward and even reached the center of the mountain range.

"It's the dragon of the volcano! There are still people on his back!"

"What are they going there for? Who knows where it is?"

The sharp-eyed guard quickly discovered the identity of the half-dragon, but did not have time to see exactly how many people were on its back. Many people were curious about where the volcanic dragon went.

"I know where it is."

There happened to be a middle-aged guard who knew where it was. This elf, who looked much more mature than the other young and strong guards, frowned and said: "There is the Mother Tree of the Elves Dynasty, where the former great temple is... What did the dragon go to that place? Does it also believe in the mother tree?"

Speaking of this, he himself smiled and shook his head in denial: "Maybe he just ran there casually. After all, in the entire world now, only the Origin Mountain Range is the safest."

This may be the case~www.novelmtl.com~ Even if some people are curious about the whereabouts of the half-dragon, most of the other guards have no extra energy to pay attention to what the volcanic dragon wants to do. They keep watching each other. At the site of the original Great Temple, there was no thought to go to exchange.

The Origin Mountains returned to silence again, leaving only the sound of the wind blowing across the mountains and forests and the sea of ​​trees surging.

This peace, until ten minutes later, the earth began to buzz.

Under the shocked gaze of the elves on the airship, the earth slowly shook. Starting from the ruins of the Great Temple in the center of the mountain, the peak slowly opened a gap, and countless tree root-like tentacles were in the gaps in the mud and rocks. Invisible, they wriggled torn the earth, revealing an unfamiliar and huge underground cavern hidden under the mountain peak.

In the cave, countless green light clusters shone with brilliance, and they floated in mid-air, bringing one after another fresh and biting wind.

Just when all the elves on the airship did not react, countless tree root-like tentacles squirmed, they are like a huge hand, bringing the "volcano dragon" and the people on its back into the cave under this mountain. Among them!
