"Are you for real?"
The humanoid creature, which seemed to be formed by arcane energy, shouted in surprise. His shout stopped Gwen and everyone else in their tracks.
This creature could speak! This creature could communicate!
Gwen stopped the 'Steel Storm' that was about to be released. He held his sword in front of him and stared at the magical creature in front of him. Tyre, who was behind him, opened his hands, and a layer of hazy mist shrouded the magical creature. Although it was not clear what the mist did, it was obviously a powerful magical effect because the lightning on the magical creature's body dimmed by more than half in an instant.
"You can talk?" Gwen asked in a low voice. "Who are you? Why are you here? "
However, the magical creature did not seem to have heard the words of the people around him. He only lowered his head to look at the indented mark on his armor plate, and then looked at the surrounding Cecil soldiers who were on high alert. He muttered to himself, "Is this true? Is it fake? Is it real? Is it fake? It's real … "
"Hey, what do you mean by 'real'?" Tyre could not help but shout. "If you don't make it clear, I'll let you taste the claws of a sea crab!"
"I … I …" The magical creature seemed to have finally realized the change in the atmosphere around him. However, he had probably not communicated with people for too long. Even if he still had the ability to speak, he seriously lacked logic. He just shook in place blankly, did not know how to answer other people's questions, and did not know how to express his thoughts. After a moment of intense contradiction, he suddenly let out a sharp scream and shouted, "I'm going to check the barrier! I'm going to check the barrier! I'm going to check the barrier! "
With this seemingly irrational scream, the figure of the humanoid creature formed by arcane energy gradually began to become unstable. Then, under everyone's gaze, he suddenly turned into a bolt of lightning, crackling and jumping, flashing and disappearing before everyone's eyes.
Leaving behind Gwen and a group of people looking at each other, Tyre was still raising his hands in the Great Roc Spreading Wings (Shark Fin) pose. However, it was clear that the Mist Enchantment she created was unable to restrain the strange magical creature.
"What's going on …" The siren shook her tail in confusion. "Where's the electric man?"
"I don't know, but I suspect that he will come back." Gwen did not put away his sword. Instead, he paid attention to any movement in the hall. "If I'm not wrong, he should be …"
Before Gwen finished speaking, a series of strange sounds suddenly came from the depths of the facility.
The noise was chaotic. It was hard to tell whether it was the sound of rolling boulders or steel scraping against each other. It was as though a large number of chaotic machines were being activated in the depths of the building. Along with the chaotic noises, the semicircular hall flashed with lightning again. After a series of crackling noises, the humanoid creature filled with lightning appeared before everyone once again.
Tyre immediately did the Great Roc Spreading Wings (Shark Fin) pose again …
But before the Mist Enchantment was formed, the humanoid creature suddenly raised his hands — or rather, two arm-like electric arcs jumping around. A strange trembling voice came from between his armor plates. "Wait a minute! We are not enemies! "
"You attacked me first." Heidi pointed at Roland with her wand. "Who the hell are you?"
"Sure enough … Sure enough … Illusions won't have so many variables … Illusions won't be so logical …" However, the humanoid creature was just muttering to himself, sometimes awake and sometimes crazy. It was not until Gwen repeated Heti's question that the creature suddenly reacted. "Ah … Ah … Yes, introduce yourself, introduce yourself, I am … I am …"
However, the creature could not say a clear name for a long time. After trying to recall for a long time, he suddenly became restless. "Who am I? Who am I? I have a name … I should have a name! Who the hell am I? "
The crackling electric arcs dissipated from the surface of his body again, and the entire space began to be filled with a powerful magic that made people uneasy. Heti instantly opened a magical barrier, but cold sweat and her pale face showed that she was no match for this magic.
But just before the situation became worse again, Gwen suddenly shouted. "Kamel, your name is Kamel Slane."
The magical creature was stunned when he heard the name. These few syllables seemed to have pressed a switch, and suddenly pulled him back from the edge of losing control. He whispered the name in a low voice, and after a long time, he raised his' head '. Two bright electric arcs turned towards Gwen. "How do you know? Do you know me? "
"The armor on your chest." Gwen pointed at the armor plate on the creature's body. "Your name is written on it."
The magical creature looked down slowly, and he saw that there was a piece of text on the armor plate floating on the surface of his body. It was a sentence:
My name is Kamel Slane, I am the Watcher of the Disobedient Fortress.
"My name is Kamel Slane, I am the Watcher of the Disobedient Fortress …" The magical creature named Kamel slowly repeated the sentence on the armor plate, and with this sentence, his condition also quickly stabilized.
A moment later, under the nervous gaze of everyone, he raised his head again, and the surging arcane energy on his body was much calmer than before. He looked around in confusion, and suddenly floated towards Gwen. At the same time, he hurriedly asked, "Who are you? Humans? People of the Empire? Survivors? There are still people alive? How is the outside world? How is our Empire? "
Heti instinctively raised her staff. "Ancestor!"
"Don't worry!" Gwen waved his hand, and the people around him calmed down. He took two steps to the side, and once again put some distance between him and Kamel. "First, calm down, and answer my question. Are you a magus of the Kingdom of Gondor who entered this facility during the Starfire Era?"
"Starfire Era …" Kamel froze for a moment, as if he had not heard this term for a long time. After a moment, he replied slowly, "Ah, yes, the Starfire Era … I was at that time … I was still a human …"
The soldiers on guard suddenly became restless, and someone could not help but exclaim in a low voice, "A human? He was really a human?! "" How did a human become like this?! "
Tyre was also shocked, and he turned to look at Heti. "You humans can also transform?"
This seafood's train of thought was not on the same frequency as everyone else.
Gwen ignored the whispers around him (and Tyre's loud voice) and focused on Kamel in front of him. "You can rest assured that we are humans. Except for this long one, she is our ally. We are indeed the descendants of the Kingdom of Gondor. "
"Humans! Descendants of the Kingdom of Gondor! You survived! Our plan back then worked! " Kamel suddenly became excited, but this time he controlled the energy that was escaping from his body very well. He only crackled for a while before he calmed down again. "So the Empire has been rebuilt? How many years has it been? Who is leading everyone? Is it the bloodline of Norton? What about the other parts of the continent? Have they also been rebuilt? "
"Kamel" asked one question after another, and he was in a state of extreme excitement. Gwen had to pour cold water on this ancient soul (although he looked quite young) to calm him down. "I have bad news. The Kingdom of Gondor is history."
"… What do you mean?"
"The Demonic Tide destroyed the Empire in the year 1740 of Gondor. Although many descendants of the Empire escaped from the wasteland, it is impossible to rebuild the Empire. The Deep Blue Well has been destroyed, and the foundation of the Empire's civilization is gone. I don't know what your plan was back then, but I am afraid it did not fully take effect, and those who survived fled on their own.
"The survivors fled the empire in four directions and established new kingdoms. The place where you are now, or the place where the main facility outside is located, is called the Gloom Mountains by us. It is the territory of the Ansu Kingdom. And now … it is 700 years after the outbreak of the demonic wave, which is a full thousand years from the time when you were active."
"Kamel" was silent.
Gwen thought that the ancient soul might have suffered a heavy blow because the electric glow on the latter's body dimmed visibly. Half a minute later, he heard Kamel's low voice. "Is what you said true?"
Gwen shook his head. "I don't have to lie to you. It is meaningless to make up four kingdoms to beat you."
The arcane energy on Kamel's body flowed quietly. After a long silence, the light on his body lit up again.
"That's great." The ancient Watcher cheered up. "So many of them survived!"
Gwen looked at the ancient Kingdom of Gondor magus with some surprise. He did not know why he had transformed into such a form. After a long while, he said, "I thought you would be devastated."
"Survival is more important than anything else. This situation is much better than our worst expectations." Kamal's voice was trembling and cracking. "Great, this is really great …"
"What the hell happened here?" Seeing that the ancient man didn't lose control of himself and instead became easier to communicate with, Gawain couldn't help but ask the question that concerned him the most, "What exactly is this facility for? What was your plan back then? And you, why did you … become like this? "
Kamel was silent for a long time. He seemed to be sorting out his messy and broken memories. After a long time, he broke the silence. "In order to continue our race, we stole the power of God.
