The Holy Flame disappeared as quickly as it came.
By the time Lin Sheng came to his senses, the white flame in front of him had completely disappeared.
He was still hiding in the ruins near the black crater, surrounded by gray rubble.
"Ancellia … Blackfeather City? That might be the starting point of everything … "Lin Sheng was expressionless.
"There has never been a problem with the Recall Memory before. But this time, there was an accident. That red-haired swordswoman in my memory actually sensed my presence … "
As he thought of this, he suddenly had a feeling that he did not dare to summon that swordswoman.
"No rush … I'll look for other summoning targets first. Before I get to the bottom of this, I can't summon this guy for now."
He made up his mind and walked out of his hiding place.
At some point in time, a huge one-eyed giant with greenish-gray skin had appeared nearby.
The one-eyed giant had its head lowered. Its two-meter-tall body was bent over as it rummaged the ground for something, stuffing the things it found into its mouth from time to time.
The sound of crunching sounded strangely noisy in the quiet city ruins.
As if it had sensed Lin Sheng's presence, the one-eyed giant turned its head and stared straight at Lin Sheng with a pale, vertical pupil.
Kekekekeke …
It grinned eerily, revealing a mouthful of saw-like fangs. There was also a lot of sludge-like garbage in the gaps of its teeth.
"Your smile is so ugly." Lin Sheng was expressionless as he reached out and grabbed a handful of gravel from the ground.
* Hah!! *
He threw the stone in his hand forward.
The stone was wrapped in pure white Saint power and turned into a white meteor as it hit the one-eyed giant's head.
* Pfft pfft pfft pfft!!! *
Caught off guard, the one-eyed giant's head was hit squarely.
It had thick skin and flesh, but the stones only made its head bleed.
As if sensing that Lin Sheng was not to be trifled with, the one-eyed giant roared and grabbed a gray leather bag hanging on its waist. It grabbed a handful of the same gravel and threw it at Lin Sheng.
* Pfft!!! *
A large amount of gravel, accompanied by a huge force, smashed into Lin Sheng's body.
But this time, with the defense of Lin Sheng's Heavy Armor of Dawn, all the gravel merely left a few scratches on the armor.
The Cyclops was shocked and ran away after smashing it. Lin Sheng was about to chase after it when he suddenly thought of something and bent down to pick up a stone from the ground.
"This stone … looks a little familiar …" He felt like he had seen this stone somewhere before.
There was a mysterious and familiar aura coming from the stone.
Lin Sheng recalled carefully. Suddenly, his expression brightened.
"This is Ancellia's Legacy Stone?!"
He remembered that the last time he was in Snowgale Castle, he obtained a new Ashen Seal after obtaining such a stone.
"Just in time. What I lack now is Ashen Seals." Without another word, Lin Sheng quickly returned to his hiding spot and infused Saint power into the stone in his hand.
Soon, traces of white Holy Power cracks appeared in the stone and spread in all directions.
Lin Sheng watched as the cracks swallowed everything in his sight.
His consciousness began to waver, like a dizzy passenger in a car. His strength was quickly draining away, and his body was like a soft noodle.
After who knows how long.
Time seemed to have no meaning.
Lin Sheng slowly opened his eyes again.
"Only a message?"
He did not get much information from the stone. Only a letter of less than 10,000 words. It was all bark and no bite.
The person who left the letter was Ancellia.
The Light of Hope who was once in charge of the Holy Temple Church in Blackfeather City.
"… I'm glad someone could open the message here.
Thank you, stranger.
To be able to leave behind even more traces in my lifetime is my only wish. '
The content of the letter, whether it was the tone or the hidden message, made one feel that something was not right.
It was a faint, heart-palpitating, sense of despair.
Lin Sheng continued to read.
"I can't remember how many days it has been since the last time I avoided the Blacktide.
Again and again, I have no other choice but to escape. Be it the Defilers or the Distorters, they are just insignificant monsters at the edge of the Blacktide. The real trouble is in the deepest part.
Those terrifying beings that cannot be sensed but exist.
I can't record anything about them, because any mention of them will become the source of their lodging and strength.
I'm just here to remind you, don't underestimate the Blacktide!
Don't underestimate everything hidden in the Blacktide. Why is it that such a powerful world, so many powerful beings, could not escape?
I have been searching for the answer.
Perhaps the equally supreme and illusory God in the legends will give me an answer … '
Lin Sheng had a very bad feeling when he saw this, but he still patiently continued to read.
"… There is a fixed sign of the Blacktide eroding the world. Generally, it is a small-scale infiltration, selecting a few agents from the world.
Most of the agents are mentally distorted, thinking that releasing everything is the right way to save. This is one of the characteristics.
The second characteristic, before the large-scale invasion of the Blacktide, the world will struggle on its deathbed, and a large number of powerful beings will appear.
Countless arcanists will appear, and countless seeds with great potential will appear. They are the last salvation of the world.
The third characteristic, a dark spiritual vortex will appear in the sky, and in the center of the vortex will be a huge entrance connected to the Blacktide.
If you can see the third step, then it means that your world is coming to an end. "
Ancellia's tone was very indifferent at this point.
"Of course, at the third step, the entire world will fall into a large-scale Blacktide, and countless invisible fog will shroud everything. At this time, if you can find the four distorted nodes in the invisible fog.
Then there may be hope.
Destroying the nodes can prolong the life of the world. "
At this point, the content of the letter was cut off and disappeared. It seemed that the follow-up was not finished, but the parts that Lin Sheng wanted to know had been revealed.
The characteristics of the three steps before the Blacktide invasion. Lin Sheng felt that the first characteristic was almost identical to the current situation.
Led by the Sevenlocks Tower, the cult's goal was to unleash everything. They seemed to want to save the country in a roundabout way, to fight the threat in another way.
But in fact, it was more like their consciousness had been infected by an unknown force.
"This is really … exciting." Lin Sheng came back to his senses and looked at the ruins in front of him. He could not calm down for a long time.
"But these three characteristics, after careful analysis, except for the last one, the other two are not very recognizable. Such cults have appeared in many eras. And the emergence of a large number of arcanists and whatnot is not necessarily caused by the Blacktide. "
Tick tock tock tock tock …
Soon, the familiar sound of the second hand was heard.
Lin Sheng knew that it was time again.
He slowly sat on the ground, waiting for the dream to leave.
Slowly, everything in front of him began to distort, blur, fade, and disappear.
Finally, it was complete darkness.
