The layers of pea vines that seemed to be able to weave a stairway to heaven fell one after another and retracted back into the soil.
Be it the Saint of Darkness's main persona or the kind Leomaster, they had already vanished. Only Admiral of Stars Cattleya stood on top of the boulder as she surveyed her surroundings in a daze.
Queen Mystic threw Leomaster's main persona and good persona back into his dream? Or should I say, she pulled them somewhere else in an attempt to figure out the specific location of the Forsaken Land of the Gods?
These two personas can't be pulled into different dreams. Otherwise, Queen Mystic would've long been able to talk to the kind Leomaster alone, using the condition of helping him defeat the Devil in exchange for the corresponding information. There's no need to go through so much trouble …
Of course, to really wipe out the Saint of Darkness's main persona, she might have to enter the dangerous ruins in the real World. Even Queen Mystic wouldn't dare to rashly attempt it. This is because it's very likely that an Evil Queen who does whatever she wants and loves to cause harm will appear … Klein turned his head in thought and looked at the building near the black cloister's entrance. He saw that behind the clean and bright floor-to-ceiling windows, the figure belonging to Bernadette had similarly vanished.
Klein didn't attempt to seek out her whereabouts to understand if Queen Mystic had obtained more information from the kind Leomaster. This was because he remembered the core persona of Gehrman Sparrow.
Mr. Fool's Blessed!
And Admiral of Stars knew very well that in Mr. Fool's Tarot Gathering, Sun came from the City of Silver in the Forsaken Land of the Gods. It was clearly unbelievable that Mr. Fool didn't know how to enter the Forsaken Land of the Gods.
Therefore, as a Blessed, Gehrman Sparrow definitely lacked the motivation to probe deeper!
Many things are really a result of persona. This is the flaw of a Faceless … Klein retracted his gaze and looked at the projection of the Giant King's Court on the opposite mountain peak. He saw that the condensed dusk was slowly returning to the horizon.
On this mountain peak, the boulder remained standing. Admiral of Stars Cattleya slowly sat down again and hugged her knees.
…
Noon and night alternated three more times, but in reality, it was just one day in the outside world.
The Future circled around the dangerous ruins and dodged the latent dangers hidden in different spots of Anhang Sea before finally returning to the vicinity of the entrance to these waters.
Klein and the others once again saw the ruins that were half submerged by the seawater. They saw the gray stones and stone pillars that were stacked into peaks, and they saw the tall dome at the top.
Earlier, they had heard loud and obvious panting sounds. Bloodless had even pointed out in pain that there was a corpse buried in the ruins!
And that corpse was most likely the source of the panting!
At that moment, the ruin that hid immense danger no longer brought fear to the crew of the Future, but joy. This was because seeing it meant that they were about to escape the absurd and terrifying sea!
"Eh, there's a boat!" It was unknown when Nina had climbed up to the high observation deck. She looked at the ruins and said loudly.
Boat? Klein circled around Anderson and Hood, who were blocking his way, and approached the railing of the ship to focus his gaze.
Indeed, behind the stacked stones and stone pillars, there was an ordinary three-masted sailboat. Due to the obstruction, it was difficult for the people on the Future to discover it unless they looked down from a high vantage point or carefully observed it.
The sailboat floated there without a single sailor on the deck. It was so quiet that it left one feeling a baffling sense of fear.
"It's as though it was eaten by the ruins." Anderson came over and shook his head with a sigh. "In these waters, unless one has a certain level of understanding of the ruins or ruins, make sure not to approach them."
A person who even dares to sketch the mural of the Angel of Fate doesn't have the right to say that … Your treasure-seeking team claims to be experienced, but aren't you the only one left … Klein didn't turn his head as he lampooned.
At this moment, Admiral of Stars Cattleya had also come to the deck and looked at the sailboat beside the ruins.
During this entire process, she didn't even glance at Gehrman Sparrow, as though he didn't exist.
After a brief silence, Cattleya raised her hand to take off the heavy glasses on her nose bridge. The dark purple in her eyes slowly flowed as though they were outlining complicated symbols.
Above the unmanned sailboat, a pair of eyes suddenly appeared. They were illusory, translucent, dark purple eyes!
The pair of eyes slowly moved and circled the deck before entering the cabin.
This Beyonder power is very useful … Speaking of which, based on the means displayed by Queen Mystic and Admiral of Stars, the Beyonder powers of a Mystery Pryer have the flavor of a fairy tale! Man, could it be that Queen Mystic can turn others into frogs? In other words, wasn't the prying ability of a Mystery Pryer reflected in this aspect, in their eyes? Admiral of Stars's eyes are a little odd. I'll have to pay attention to them in the future … Klein guessed as he waited for Cattleya's long-range exploration to yield results.
After a while, the dark purple in Cattleya's eyes finally dimmed.
She rubbed her eyebrows, put on her glasses again, and said to Anderson, Hood, and Frank Lee,
She said to Anderson, Hood, and Frank Lee, "There's a problem inside."
As she spoke, she took out a handful of colorful powder from a secret pocket in her classic warlock robe and threw it out.
These powders sprinkled on the ground, forming a vivid and lifelike colorful picture scroll.
The background of the picture was similar to a captain's cabin. There was a photo on the desk and a portrait on the wall. All of them were of the same person:
A Feysac with broad shoulders, pale blond hair, and deep blue eyes!
This … Klein first found him familiar before he recalled where he had seen him before.
Back when he was in Nas, an adventurer had been chased by the second mate of the King of Immortality, Kircheis. He had run into Lærdal Bar and sought help from the Adventurers Association. At that moment, among the powerhouses who stood up to provide protection, there was a burly man from Feysac who was more than two meters tall. He gave Klein the feeling that he wasn't weak. He was probably a Sequence 6!
Why would his ship suddenly enter these waters and rashly explore the dangerous ruins? Amidst his puzzlement, Klein carefully observed the supernatural picture on the deck.
This time, he saw a pool of blood on the floor. Beside the blood were a few words in Feysac:
"Fountain of Unaging …"
At the end of the words, the blood trail stretched out and connected to a clear drag mark that led to the door.
Klein's mind seemed to be able to reenact the scene from back then. The Sequence 6 Feysac man had suffered a baffling attack and collapsed to the ground with serious injuries. He tried his best to write down the source of his encounter, but just as he started writing, he was dragged away by an unknown object by his legs or head!
Considering how the blood-colored words hadn't been erased, Klein suspected that the thing that dragged the adventurer away wasn't a living person.
It should be the corpse in the ruins … he thought, feeling a headache coming on.
"Fountain of Unaging? They came here in search of the Fountain of Unaging? "Anderson and Hood said in excitement.
"Clearly, they didn't find it." Frank Lee shook his head in disappointment.
He was similarly filled with yearning for the Fountain of Unaging, believing that the fountain water could allow his various experiments to undergo a qualitative change.
Fountain of Unaging … Back then, the one pursuing the young adventurer was Slaughterer Kircheis. He's the second mate of the King of Immortality … Rumor has it that the King of Immortality had once drunk the Fountain of Unaging's water … Kircheis even warned me and Gehrman Sparrow not to interfere with the young adventurer's matters, saying that it was the will of the King of Immortality … Klein barely managed to piece together the truth based on all the information.
The young adventurer obtained or stole the secret of the Fountain of Unaging from a trusted aide of the King of Immortality. Hence, he was pursued. Later, under the protection of a few quasi-powerhouses from the Adventurer Association, he barely escaped Slaughterer Kircheis. Later on, on the one hand, they wanted to avoid the King of Immortality, and on the other hand, they wanted to find the Fountain of Unaging. Finally, they chose to venture into these waters, but who knew that they would be wiped out in these ruins …
Could it be that the Fountain of Unaging is deep in these ruins? Klein looked at the gray stones and stone pillars that were piled up into a mountain again. He had a vague guess.
Because it was difficult to verify his thoughts for the time being, and he did not know who the corpse buried in the ruins was, he did not have the urge to explore and take risks, so he rationally withdrew his gaze.
I can ask Will Auceptin or Arrodes later … Heh, perhaps the so-called Spring of Unaging is the pus produced from that corpse's rotting … Klein speculated with the worst of ill intentions.
At this moment, Cattleya, who had heard Anderson and Frank's conversation, thought for a moment.
"If he died while searching for the 'Fountain of Youth', I don't think the owner of the portrait and the photo would have enough motivation to leave the correct information for the people who came after him before he died. After all, the people who found this place were most likely not his family."
That makes sense … If it were me, I wouldn't have thought of leaving a hint for the people behind me if I encountered a monster during a treasure hunt and was about to die … Klein shook his head indiscernibly. He couldn't think of any other reason at the moment.
Cattleya looked at the expectant Anderson and Frank and said, "Successful adventures often stem from detailed information and sufficient preparations.
"A successful adventure usually comes from detailed information and sufficient preparation, which we don't have right now."
Her voice suddenly turned louder as it reverberated in every corner of the ship.
"Continue sailing.
"Leave these waters!"
"Yes, Captain!" Nina gulped down a mouthful of alcohol from the observation deck.
A few minutes later, the descent and ascent that defied common sense happened once again. However, the prepared crew of the Future no longer looked as pathetic as when they first arrived. They easily survived the thrilling scene of jumping off a cliff and being thrown into the air.
Soon, the Future landed on the azure blue sea. In the distance was a gigantic storm that blotted out the sky.
Not far away, there was another ship floating silently. It was nearly two hundred meters long, and its front and back were raised high like a crescent moon.
Looking at the sail that depicted a black tombstone, a corresponding term flashed across Klein's mind.
Death Announcer!
The flagship of King of Immortality Agalito!
At that moment, Klein didn't feel horror or fear, but excitement and agitation.
Queen Mystic is on the ship, and there's no need to hide this time … Together with me, Admiral of Stars, Anderson, Hood, and the crew of the Future, we have a chance of wiping out the King of Immortality's fleet! I've found Creeping Hunger's food! I've found a candidate for the puppet!
At this moment, the Death Announcer suddenly turned around and distanced itself from the area at an unprecedented speed.
It ran … It ran … Klein was momentarily dazed.
Soon, the Death Announcer vanished from his vision.
