Those evil spirits ran away, as if they were afraid of Fina.
The surviving villagers were excited for a while, but soon they were defeated by all kinds of sad news. This attack had killed at least half of the villagers. Their corpses were scattered in the burning village, and the sound of crying filled the whole village.
In order to not let the dead become evil spirits, the villagers had no choice but to pile up the victims' corpses and let them be buried in the sea of fire with the village.
Mei Li, who was riding on horseback, was worried about Fina's safety. She herself was riding on a horse, wandering in the forest. In fact, the horse didn't listen to her at all. It was only when a whistle was heard that it suddenly ran back to Fina's side.
Fortunately, the child in her arms had found his family. Mei Li was happy for him. At least he had a family, unlike her.
At this time, she seemed to have found an additional red-haired woman. She was dressed like a magician, but there was a sword at her waist.
"Thank you for your help, friend. I am Fina, from the Kevlar Mountains. It is nice to meet you."
Fina smiled at the red-haired woman.
The other party nodded. Her face was expressionless, giving people a feeling that she was unapproachable. However, Mei Li was interested in this person, perhaps because she seemed to be very sad.
Especially her eyes, which were as melancholic as late autumn.
"It was nothing. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Goodbye."
However, the other party did not seem to want to say anything more. She turned around and prepared to leave.
Fina and Mei Li looked at her. Both of them seemed to want to say something until Fina shouted, "Wait."
The red-haired woman stopped. She turned her head and looked at the two with the side of her face.
She had a unique temperament of a noble, completely different from a commoner like Mei Li. Her every move revealed that she had received a high level of education. But why would such a person appear alone in such a remote place?
Fina walked towards her and said with a bitter smile, "Your shoes tell me that you have been to many places. Then you must have met many people and heard a lot of news. I want to ask you about someone. She is very important to me."
The red-haired woman slowly turned around. It was hard to tell what she was thinking from her expression.
"I'm not … Forget it. Ask away. I might not be able to help you."
"She's a white-haired girl. Her hair color is similar to mine, but whiter than mine. She's about thirteen or fourteen years old. Her name is Reina."
"Reina?"
When Fina said that name, the other party's eyes finally changed. She frowned, obviously knowing something about Reina.
"Yes, have you seen her?"
Fei Na asked hurriedly. Her face was filled with joy. She hadn't heard any news about Reina since she went down the mountain.
"I have, but that was more than three years ago. Why are you looking for her?"
The other party asked.
Three years ago was a long time, but it was better than nothing.
She said, "She and I both belong to the High Mountain Tribe. She is one of us. We also need her to come back and get through this difficult time with us."
The red-haired woman sized up Fina, especially her white hair.
"You have a strange power on you. It's ancient and mysterious. I also feel a similar aura on her. Maybe you're telling the truth. My name is Lilith. I'm afraid my information can't help you because I'm also looking for her. "
Hearing this, Fina was stunned.
"You're also looking for Reina? Why? "
Lilith subconsciously looked at the sword at her waist and said, "This is someone's last wish. I must send this sword to her."
She seemed to have something else to say. It made Mei Li feel as if she was hiding something.
But then again, was there really such a coincidence in this world?
Fina suddenly smiled and said, "If that's the case, then our goal is the same. Why don't we travel together?"
With such a reliable companion, Fina was sure that the journey would be much easier.
Lilith thought for a few seconds. For a moment, Mei Li was worried that she would refuse.
"If you can keep up with my footsteps."
Her words sounded a little harsh, but Fina didn't seem to care. She smiled and said, "Then it's settled, Lilith."
The village had been completely burned down. Many people didn't want to leave, but the fear of evil spirits forced them to set off for the town. They had nothing left. They could only pray that the count there would be kind enough to take them in.
Fortunately, Fina and Lilith were going in the same direction as them. Following these two women gave the villagers something to rely on in this difficult journey.
"What's so special about your sword?"
At night, they gathered around the campfire. The fire shone on Lilith's cold face. She rarely spoke along the way.
"This is not an ordinary sword."
Her answer was puzzling. Mei Li only felt that the atmosphere was very awkward.
Fina scratched her head and said, "How do you know Reina? I want to know about her in the outside world. "
"It's just a coincidence. I taught her a little magic. That's all."
Lilith seemed to recall the past, and tears seemed to flash in her eyes.
Both of them were looking for this white-haired woman named Reina. Mei Li couldn't help but be curious about her. What kind of person was she? Why were so many people looking for her?
But she was sure that the other party was not as ordinary as she was.
"Ah, I don't know where she is now. That little girl. After she left, I felt very lonely."
Fina said as she lay on the ground with her head in her hands.
Lilith glanced at her and said, "How much do you know about these dead people?"
"I only know that it's an ancient power. It originated from the mountains, but someone stole it from us."
Hearing this, Mei Li was stunned. The magic that made the dead people move was related to Fina's people?
Lilith was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about something, and said, "Ancient Guardians, I have seen similar records from murals. The Guardians of the Mountains, the Guardians of the Sea, the Guardians of the Abyss, the Guardians of the Tower, the Guardians of the Ruins, the Guardians of the Forest, and the Guardians of the Sky. I didn't expect that there were still descendants of the Guardians in this world. We searched for the three, but found that the guardians there had disappeared thousands of years ago … "
Hearing this, Fina didn't say anything. She looked at the sparse stars in the sky and sighed.
"Guarding is a difficult task, especially persevering for a long time."
That was what she said.
Lilith nodded in agreement. Mei Li couldn't participate in their conversation at all, but she seemed to know that these two people seemed to be related to the fate of the whole world.
