"Amri, why did you come here, I have been looking for you for half a day."
Standing at the city gate, the middle-aged man who was running over from afar held onto Adil's hand, only then did he let out a sigh of relief, turned around and looked at the soldiers at the side, "Move aside!"
At this moment, the anxious and fearful expression on his face faded away, and what replaced it was a dignified expression, causing even Adil to look askance at him.
"So it's priest Seng's child," the rattan-armored soldier who was guarding the city had a solemn expression, and lowered his head towards Adil, seemingly expressing his apology.
"Alright, Amri, let's go in."
While holding onto Adil's hand, Seng had a smile on his face, then held onto Adil's hand and walked forward.
Building after building continuously flashed past in front of his eyes, and the layout and appearance of most of the buildings made Adil feel a little familiar.
"The layout is exactly the same as the ruins from before."
Carefully observing the surrounding roads and buildings, this thought silently flashed past Adil's mind.
Not knowing why, when he arrived here, a sense of familiarity from the bottom of his heart continuously emerged. The surrounding was obviously all unfamiliar scenery, but strangely, he had a sense of familiarity, as if he had lived here before.
Sensing this, Adil's expression turned a little ugly, "Even I have no way of sensing anything wrong, this illusion …"
While walking, he was also using his own method to examine the scenery that constantly passed by.
However, no matter if it was his powerful spiritual power or the A.I. Chip that existed in the depths of his soul, at this moment, they did not discover any abnormalities, as if everything was real.
"We have arrived." Beside him, Seng's unique hoarse voice sounded.
Holding onto Adil's hand, he walked to the front of a seemingly old manor, looked at the manor that was overgrown with weeds and smiled happily, "Finally home …"
He raised his head and looked at the old manor that seemed to have not been taken care of for a long time, his expression didn't look good, as if he had recalled something from the past.
Standing beside him, looking at the dilapidated and primitive manor in front of him, Adil was stunned.
As if he had encountered something crucial, at this moment, an unusual sense of familiarity surfaced in his heart, along with fragments of memories.
As if he had been reborn, a large number of memories inexplicably surfaced in his mind.
Following these memories, he subconsciously walked to the front door of the manor and looked at the black wooden board in front of the manor door.
On the black wooden board, there were traces of carvings. In the center, there were some words written in a language that Adil was unfamiliar with, yet familiar at the same time.
"Happy birthday, Amri Yala."
Looking at the handwriting carved on the wooden board, an inexplicable sense of familiarity came from his heart, causing him to subconsciously read out these words.
"Yala …" Looking at the surname behind the name, Adil was a bit surprised, "It is exactly the same as the surname of this body of mine."
"Ah Mu 'li, stop playing." A rough palm came down and accurately placed on top of Adil's head.
At the side, looking at Adil, Seng maintained a smile on his face. "We should go in."
"Alright." Gently turning around, Adil took a deep look at Senge. His expression didn't change as he silently nodded.
Along with a light sound, the wooden door was quickly opened and the two slowly walked in.
It was currently noon. In the sky, the golden sun was shining in all directions. Rays of faint golden sunlight shone down and shone on the black ground.
And in the surroundings, beside an old house that seemed to be rather big, strands of wild grass were tenaciously surviving, covering the soil in the surroundings.
These scenery should be very unfamiliar to Adil, but at this moment, to him, there was an unusual sense of familiarity.
Furthermore, at this moment, Adil had a kind of feeling in his heart.
It was as if he had grown up here since he was young. Everything around him, to him, had no secrets. Even if he were to close his eyes and walk, he would still know where he was, and he wouldn't feel the slightest bit of fear or uneasiness.
This kind of feeling should have been very good, but at this moment, Adil only felt that his heart was ice-cold.
"Even my memories and feelings are affected?"
This thought flashed past his heart, and then his attention was attracted by something outside.
Woof …
A low and deep sound came from outside.
Under Adil's gaze, outside the opened wooden door of the manor, a black mutt with fluffy fur and skin and bones ran in from outside. It stood on the doorstep and barked loudly, as if it was calling for something.
"Wild dog?"
Hearing the dog barking outside the door, Adil muttered to himself. After that, his body subconsciously stood up and walked towards the skinny black mutt.
"Du …"
Lightly walking to the doorstep, looking at the black mutt that was standing in front of him, following the feeling in his heart, Adil slowly said a name.
After speaking, the dog in front of him barked again. It lowered its head lightly and touched Adil's hand, as if it was expressing its emotions.
"It got hurt again."
Lightly touching the mutt's head, Adil sharply saw a few scars on the mutt's head, as well as a smear of blood that had not dried yet.
"Follow me." Standing up, following the reaction in his heart, Adil walked into his house, took out some bones and meat, and directly placed them outside.
This seemed to have become a kind of habit. After seeing the bones that were piled up outside the door, the black mutt no longer barked and quietly squatted there, drinking clean water while chewing on the bones and meat.
Silence stroked the fur on the black mutt's body. Feeling this kind of subconscious action, while frowning, Adil was also thinking about the current situation.
"The legendary Lost City, ordinary people are unable to find it, only the previous owner of the city, or people who are about to die can enter."
Thinking about this, Adil lowered his head and thought, "This legend should be true, but when Leon and I came in, we did not feel any obstruction, and we entered this place very smoothly."
"No obstruction, which means that Leon and I are people who meet the criteria to enter … In other words, the so-called previous owner of this city …"
Silence sat where he was, thinking about the information about the Lost City in his mind, the coldness in Adil's eyes became more and more intense.
His body was still very healthy, not only was he only 12 years old, there was no pain on his body, no matter how he looked at it, he did not meet the criteria of a person who was about to die.
Then, the only one that met the criteria was undoubtedly the other one.
"The curse of the past will spread along the bloodline …" Inexplicably, this sentence suddenly came to Adil's mind.
When he first looked up this sentence, he was still a little confused, but now, after actually entering this place, he more or less understood what was going on.
"Amuri Yala, Sim Yala, and Ge Sen and Coral have similar appearances."
Thinking about the various clues that he already knew, Adil fell into deep thought, "The previous owner of this city, from the literal meaning, should be the previous residents of this city."
"Only the previous owner of this city can enter, this condition might be referring to the bloodline."
He slowly raised his head, "Only the descendant bloodline of the residents of this city can follow the bloodline and enter this city."
"And Leon and I, should meet this condition."
This was only a rough inference, but from the looks of it, the possibility should not be small.
It was also very simple to verify this inference, he only needed to find another person who entered.
If the condition was met once, it could still be said to be a coincidence, but if it was met twice in a row, then the accuracy of the inference would undoubtedly increase by a lot.
"Leon's surname, Carlades …"
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, he touched the black dog's injured forehead, then stood up and walked towards the house.
In the old house, Senge was busy inside, from time to time, he would rummage through the cabinets and tidy up some of the chores that were covered in dust.
"Carlades, this surname is very rare here, he should be living in the Creek Alley in the north of the city."
Inside the house, after hearing Adil's question, Senge was a little surprised, "Why are you asking this?"
He did not know if it was an illusion, but at the moment when Adil asked the question, the expression on his face seemed to have a slight change, his eyes also became a lot colder.
This little change was very weak, and in the next moment, it would completely disappear. Under normal circumstances, it would be very hard to notice.
Looking at these changes in his eyes, Adil secretly frowned, but on the surface, he smiled calmly, "I unintentionally heard of this surname before, so I came over to ask, I didn't think that there would really be …"
"No! You're lying! "A strong hoarse voice forcefully disrupted Adil's words.
At this moment, Senge's expression changed greatly, the originally gentle expression on his face instantly carried a strong hatred and resentment, one of his originally black eyes emitted out a strange light, firmly staring at Adil who was in front of him, as if he was looking at his life and death enemy.
A huge pressure came from in front of him, bringing along a faint sense of danger.
Feeling all these, Adil secretly frowned, his eyes looked at Senge who was in front of him, the vigilance in his heart immediately reached the peak.
The next moment, as if realizing that he had lost control of himself, the strange expression on Senge's face instantly disappeared, the hatred and resentment that was originally hanging on his face instantly disappeared, only a gentle expression was left, his pair of black eyes also did not look as strange as before.
"Be careful on the road."
Seemingly knowing what Adil was going to do, Senge said these words indifferently, then turned around and went to tidy up the things in the house by himself.
Behind him, looking at Senge's back view that was busy, Adil looked at it in Silence for a long time, then turned around and left.
"That feeling just now, it's a bit similar to the feeling of the curse that I encountered before, but also a bit different …"
