Celine nodded.
"Yes." She bit her lip, still hesitant.
But she made up her mind, and her face slowly calmed down.
"Here, what I'm about to tell you, I hope you won't spread it around, even to your friends. Can you do that? "Celine asked seriously.
Garon and Su Lin were both shocked.
"Is it that serious?" Garon asked in a low voice.
"Of course." Celine nodded, her eyes still serious.
"Alright, no problem." Su Lin nodded.
"I'm fine with it too. Alright, tell me. What's so urgent? "Garon also felt something was off from Celine's attitude.
"Actually … Duskdune Shura and the rest probably came here in a hurry because of this. The Golden Sword Throne is a key, a key that contains both opportunity and danger. "
Celine was lost in her memories.
"Our world is very, very big … It's bigger than anyone can imagine. Even today's airplanes can't reach the end of the ocean, even with a large number of refueling tanks. But … there are some strange places in the world. These places appear randomly, and some have existed for a long time. Some of them are relics left behind from ancient times. Some of them are strange phenomena with unknown origins. "
"Relics from ancient times? What does the Golden Sword Throne involve? Just tell us. "Garon frowned.
Celine nodded. "Alright, then I won't explain it from the beginning. The Golden Sword Throne originated from a moving ruin that was explored by the Ancient Endor Civilization and the Abdas Empire. It's a key that they took out from the ruins. "
"What's in the ruins?" Garon went straight to the point.
"The legendary mysterious blood. Some say it's the ancient blood of immortality. Some say it's a powerful blood that can help people evolve. There are many different theories, but one thing is for sure, this thing is very valuable. " Celine explained. "The location of these ruins is usually hard to predict, and the time of appearance is also uncertain. If it weren't for the Golden Sword Throne, we probably wouldn't even be able to open the entrance. "
"You mean …"
Celine nodded. "That's right. There are many kinds of ruins, and the styles inside are all strange. It seems like there are traces of different civilizations and legends. But it is undeniable that the appearance of every ruin is accompanied by danger and opportunity. There will always be things of different value in it. We call these things secret treasures. The ruins where the Golden Sword Throne was located had been explored by the Ancient Endor civilization before, and then by the Nabudas Empire, but it still existed. Perhaps the two civilizations had left something inside. At some point in time, the rumor that the Golden Sword Throne was related to the Blood of Eternal Life had spread across the world. As a result, the Ancient Endor ruins and the Golden Sword Throne have almost become synonymous with the Blood of Longevity. "
The three of them did not speak for a while. Su Lin and Garon just sat there quietly, digesting Celine's words.
The bonfire continued to burn, and the flames gradually died down. The red light in the small room gradually dimmed, and the silver stars in the sky outside the window suddenly became prominent, unusually eye-catching.
Celine looked at the two of them.
"How is it? Are you still planning to leave? "
The two of them didn't say anything.
"There may be danger in the ruins, but there may also be opportunities. It is said that some ruins have strange weapons and armor left behind. Some of them even found strange and mysterious creatures. Some people even suspect that these ruins may be the last secret remains of a lost civilization. "
Celine added.
Garon stood up and looked out the window.
"Let's wait for the people from Slash first. I suspect that Duskdune Shura didn't lead us here with good intentions. The people from Slash will definitely find this place, and maybe even the werewolves. "
"Based on the time, the werewolves should have discovered our whereabouts by now." Su Lin nodded in agreement. "They should be here soon."
The three of them didn't say much after that. After they finished eating, they looked for some broken furniture in the room and piled it over to block the light from the bonfire so that it wouldn't leak out through the window. Then, they sat around the bonfire and slowly rested.
After an unknown amount of time.
Pa!
Garon opened his eyes in a daze, and looked at the bonfire in front of him. He seemed to have heard something.
Pa!
The bonfire exploded again, and tiny sparks flew out. The bonfire had been extinguished long ago, and only the red charcoal emitted a faint red light.
Su Lin and Celine were sleeping soundly by the wall, and the other had found a piece of clothing and laid it on the ground, curled up into a ball next to the bonfire. They were also sleeping soundly, and their small faces were slightly red from the light of the fire.
He was the only one awake.
Garon stood up gently, walked around the furniture to the window, and looked down.
The cold night wind blew in from the forest outside, and intermittent sounds came from the sea of trees far away.
Garon looked from afar, and looked in the direction of the sound.
Far away from the sea of black trees, several small yellow lights were moving slowly, and from time to time, he could hear gunshots and wolf howls, but they were very weak.
"Someone's coming …" Garon frowned, and quickly went back to the bonfire to wake Su Lin and Celine up.
"Wake up, someone's coming. Don't sleep! "
Su Lin and Celine were already prepared, and without a word, they both woke up, found a bottle of water and drank it, and went to the window.
Celine sniffed, and carefully sniffed.
"There's the smell of werewolves and humans, and the smell of blood and gunpowder, looks like there's a fight."
"Can you tell what kind of blood it is?" Garon asked in a low voice.
"What kind of nose do you think I have? How can I tell whose blood it is? "Celine rolled her eyes at him.
"Let me do this." Su Lin took out a telescope from his bag, and extended it to look at the light of the fire.
Immediately, his face became serious.
"It's the Slash Squad! They're fighting with the werewolves here! It's so intense! "
"Let me see." Garon took the telescope and looked into the distance.
Inside the round tube, the light of the fire illuminated the surroundings, and there were dozens of werewolf corpses, big and small. The Slash Squad moved quickly with the light of the fire, and it was obvious that many of them were injured, obviously caused by being surrounded. Beo was also in the squad, the usually cold blue-haired genius, but now he was in a difficult situation, and was having a hard time dealing with the sudden attack of the werewolves.
"It's the Slash Squad. They're too arrogant, charging directly into the hunting grounds of the werewolves without using any tricks. They're too confident in their own abilities. "Garon shook his head," It's inevitable that they'll clash with the werewolves. "
"Should we help them?" Su Lin asked.
"What do you think?" Garon shook his head, "If the werewolves are only as strong as the ones we met before, we don't need to help them. But these werewolves I saw were much faster than the ones we met before."
"So you're saying that they might be held back? Are you sure you don't want to help them? "Su Lin took the telescope and looked again.
"There's no need, they'll enter the ruins sooner or later. The Slash Squad was just careless, once they recover, the werewolves might not be able to hold them back. "Garon said decisively," We'll follow behind them. “
"You've decided to go in?" Celine was slightly surprised.
"Yes. I've decided, with the Slash Squad in front, we'll be much safer. "Garon nodded.
"I don't think I'll go." Su Lin thought about it and shook his head, "I'll only be a burden if I go. I'll just wait here for you guys to come out, then I'll meet up with the Slash Squad. "
"That's a good idea, there might be danger inside. We might not be able to take care of you. "Garon nodded in agreement.
"Then let's wait." Celine said softly.
Garon and the other two stood by the window, looking at the yellow flames moving towards them.
Ten minutes later, the flames had reached the outskirts of the village. The squad was in a mess, only three of them were left, the last one was nowhere to be seen. Two of the four were holding torches, it seemed like they had temporarily defeated the werewolves.
One of the three was cursing the werewolves loudly, the other was using a tree trunk to wipe the blood off his machete.
Under the watchful eyes of Garon and the other two, the Slash Squad walked straight towards the entrance of the tomb.
Soon, they found the tomb that had been opened, after some hesitation, the three of them walked in one after another. The flames slowly dimmed and disappeared at the entrance.
Obviously, they already knew that this was the entrance, they did not hesitate at all.
"Let's go."
Garon took the lead and walked down the stairs, Celine jumped up and landed beside him, following closely behind.
"Help me look at the entrance of the tomb, find something to cover it up."
"No problem." Su Lin agreed without hesitation.
Garon brought Celine back to the entrance of the tomb, and walked down the stairs without hesitation.
The stone steps were long and deep, at the bottom was not a tomb, but a long and dark stone corridor, the walls on both sides of the corridor were lined with symmetrical torches.
Garon turned on his flashlight and shone it in front of him. The black stone corridor led downwards, they did not know how deep it led.
"Celine, pay attention to the scent of the Slash Squad, we need to keep a distance and not let them find us." Garon instructed.
"No problem, leave it to me." Celine nodded. "But why don't we meet up with them?"
"In a ruin like this where there might be hidden treasures, any cooperation is not credible." Garon shook his head in disagreement.
"I thought you were going to chase after them and meet up with them." Celine looked at him a few more times, not surprised.
The two of them walked and stopped, but they did not encounter any more traps. Occasionally, there would be some metal needles embedded deep into the ground, obviously triggered by the two groups of people in front of them.
The most famous symbol of the Ancient Endor civilization was the endless staircase that was said to be connected to the underworld. After walking for more than half an hour, a brown wooden door finally appeared in front of them. The door was wide open, and there were clear footprints on the dust on the ground.
Strangely, there were two lines of words carved on the walls on both sides of the door.
Garon leaned over and shone his flashlight carefully.
"Be careful of the elves."
He read softly, the words on the wall were in the Endor language, he could barely understand them.
"What does it mean?"
