Hundreds of tents, large and small, were set up under the city walls of Artisim. When Nangonglong and his party arrived, they happened to catch up with the residents queuing up to receive their meals.
It is impossible to point to the death knight to cook, and the people who are in charge of the meals are women recruited from among the surviving residents.
In order not to cause commotion, the dragon chariot was parked three kilometers away from the city wall. They all came here on horseback, including Leiqi.
A few people rode into the city, followed by a hundred-man team.
When passing near the camp, the residents were curious, but they did not rush forward.
If it was just a few days ago, they would probably not have even glanced at it. The city was burned and there was nothing left in their eyes.
Wreckage of buildings, streets covered in soot, burnt black beams and walls...
The once bustling city has turned into a shocking scene.
The current scene is much stronger than before. You must know that a few days ago, there were still residents wandering in the streets with desperate faces, and there were also many people lying on the ground waiting to die... There are also burnt corpses...
Sage No. 10, who came a few days earlier than them, had already ordered the death knights to clean up the ruins, and the first thing was to gather the corpses.
Nangong Long didn't know exactly how many people died, but more than 7 death knights were created.
The actual death toll was only slightly higher.
Many corpses were fished out of the river in the city. The fire burning the city must have been trying to survive by diving into the water. However, how many people survived jumping into the cold river in winter.
Looking at the hopeless scene in front of them, Ai Lian and the others were silent. Even if they were mentally prepared, their hearts would inevitably become heavy.
"Thinking about how to rebuild here is more meaningful than lamenting," Nangong Long said.
Hearing his words, Leiqi put away her depressed emotions, took a deep breath, and pulled herself together.
"You're right, you can't always be immersed in the past"
"After cleaning up the ruins in the city, leave thousands of people to maintain order, and the work of rebuilding will be handed over to people outside the city," Nangong Long said to Leiqi.
"Wouldn't it be faster to ask soldiers to help rebuild?" Leiqi asked subconsciously.
"Only by rebuilding it by yourself will you cherish it more, and it will also provide jobs for the people, so you can't always support them"
"I understand." Leiqi nodded and said, she was just too anxious just now, she can understand the reason after thinking about it carefully.
Nangong Long and the others continued to move towards the center of the city. There were three roads to the underground temple, the Holy Cave Palace, one of which was in the center of the city.
The other two roads, one is the temple of Mother Earth Mosiah in the southeast direction outside the city, and the other is the cemetery in the northeast direction of the city.
The shortest way to get to the Holy Cave Palace is the city center. After all, the Holy Cave Palace is just under the city, and it takes a long underground passage to choose other roads, so I don't consider it.
The location of the passage in the center of the city has been cleaned up by the death knights, and Lei Qi and the others saw the entrance leading to the underground at a glance.
It was too easy for the lieutenant to find an entrance that wasn't hidden by magic.
It seems that this place was originally a temple, and only a few remains of the building remained. Sage No. [-] directly ordered the soldiers to dismantle it.
Everyone entered the underground corridor through the entrance, Nangong Long walked in the front, followed by Lei Qi and Joan...
"There seems to be something carved on the wall"
After walking for about 10 minutes, Ai Lian looked at the wall and suddenly said, the brightness in the passage is very low, if you don't observe carefully, you will ignore it directly.
The girls stopped and looked at the wall. At first glance, it was difficult to understand what was painted on it, but after careful observation and imagination, they could vaguely see that it was a three-headed monster confronting a human-like creature Scenes.
To put it bluntly, the paintings on the walls are very abstract.
"If it's convenient, please tell me about this painting." Ailian looked at Leiqi and said.
"...This is a war between gods and dragons" Lei Qi said after hesitating for a few seconds.
For Gistart, who believes in the gods and takes the black dragon as his national flag, this news made Ailian and the others feel complicated, which is why Lai Qi hesitated.
"This is a story from the age of mythology. For some unknown reason, a war broke out between the gods and the dragon. In the sky, the ground, and the underworld... only the dragon can harm the gods in each world, so the gods are afraid of the dragon."
"To be exact, it's the God Slaughter Dragon. Those earth dragons and fire dragons outside can be killed by just any god," Nangong Long said.
Hearing his words, Ailian's eyes lit up, maybe he knew more details about what happened.
"How much do you know?" Eileen asked curiously.
"I don't know why they fought, but I can guess. Maybe because they are afraid of dragons, the gods joined forces to destroy the god-slaying dragon, but unfortunately found that they couldn't fight at all. So they had to make peace, that is, A painting," Nangong Long said, taking a few steps forward and pointing at the wall.
It is engraved with the three goddesses putting their hands on the neck of the three-headed dragon. It is estimated that the meaning expressed is to persuade the god-killing dragon to stop the war.
"These three goddesses are Tier Na Fa"
The passage space here is relatively large, so the girls gathered around and looked at the paintings on the wall.
"What do you mean?" Sophie looked at Nan 943 Gonglong suspiciously.
"This, I forgot to tell you." Ailian scratched her cheek and said to Sophie in embarrassment.
"It looks like a very interesting thing." Sophie looked at Ailian with a smile and said with a change of eyes.
During the next journey, Ailian told Sophie, Mira and Lisa about the legend of Tier Na Fa and the war between humans and monsters.
The three war girls who heard it felt dizzy for a while, no wonder the power of the dragon tool is so powerful, it turns out that the opponent is not human at all, but to deal with monsters.
Ellen didn't tell them that Icarus was an angel, and seeing the wicked light flashing in her eyes, she probably wanted to appreciate Sophie and the others' stunned expressions.
Nangong Long also interjected at the right time, telling them that the three-headed dragon on the mural just now was the black dragon in the legend of the founding of Jistat.
Walking out of the passage, the space in front of you suddenly became very large, and the high ceiling illuminated the whole space with hazy light.
A huge door was built on one of the walls, all made of metal, five meters wide and high.
Lei Qi opened the door, and a group of people walked in. After seeing the things inside, they returned the same way.
In this trip, one of their goals has been achieved.Then arrange the reconstruction work, and if there are no accidents, they will return to the palace.
Chapter 66 Shocked
At night, in the moving palace, Nangong Long's room, the space not far from the bed was like water waves spreading outward, twisting silently.
A white figure emerged from the distorted space, and soon its outline and color appeared, and finally fixed in human form, and the space regained its stability.
The figure that suddenly appeared in the room was a young woman, about 20 years old.
With long black hair with a touch of blue, the white rose on the head is set off more vividly, giving people a pure impression.
Wearing a white dress, with red and purple roses adorning her chest and waist, her beautiful facial features are both gentle and weak, making people love her.
However, he held a huge scythe with a long handle in his hand, and the blade shone with jet black and bright red colors.
Although it is completely opposite to her impression, the scythe matches her surprisingly well, giving off a dreamlike atmosphere.
The skirt fluttered lightly, and she fell silently to the floor.
In fact, she had already come here once during the day, and while Nanlong and the others were not here, she figured out the structure of this mobile palace.
She walked to the bed with a pure smile, and the next moment, her eyes were wide open, and her eyes were full of surprise.
She saw Nangong Long hugging a girl, and she also knew this girl, Eleonora, who was also a war concubine.
"It's really surprising." The black-haired woman murmured in a low voice. Seeing Ailian here, she didn't plan to stay longer, because she might be discovered in the next moment.
Afraid of something, Ailian, who was sleeping soundly, opened her eyes suddenly, then turned over, picked up the silver flash placed beside the bed, stared at the uninvited guest with her red eyes, and the whole movement was done in one go.
The reason Ailian woke up suddenly was because Silver Flash kept blowing cold wind on her, trying to convey some kind of message.
It's really bad, the black-haired woman smiled bitterly in her heart, if she knew that Zhan Ji and Nangong Long were together, she would definitely not use the power of the dragon tool to transfer them.
It's a pity that if there is no if, let's think about how to fool the past now.
"Valentine Na" Ailian whispered while staring at the person in front of her.
The person who slipped into the room was none other than one of the Seven War Princesses of Gistate, Valentina Glinka Estes, aliased as the Fantasy Princess of Phantom.
She has two surnames because she was born in a noble family, one is her original surname, and the other is her surname after inheriting the position of Zhan Ji.
"I said I didn't mean anything malicious, do you believe it?" Valentina said with a wry smile on her lips, looking at Ailian.
Sneaking into someone else's room in the middle of the night and saying that I didn't mean any harm, Ailian would not believe her nonsense.
Ailian didn't know much about Valentina, the duchies of the two were far apart, and there was almost no intersection.
The principality Osterodes ruled by Valentina is located in the northeast of the Kingdom of Jistatt. She usually stays in her principality on the grounds of her poor health, and occasionally attends kingdom banquets or meetings. Return to the principality due to physical discomfort and other reasons.
Even if there is an order from the king to send troops to fight, Valentina will fight a symbolic battle, and immediately retreat if she suffers a slight loss. The reason is naturally that she is not in good health and cannot continue to fight.
I heard that her dragon tool can go anywhere in an instant, which is unbelievable, but Ellen believes it now. After all, if Valentina forced her way in, it would not cause a little commotion.
When I met Valentina in the palace before, I heard her say that just moving from her own room to the next room will exhaust her energy, and she needs to rest for a few days to recover.
Now it seems that it is all her disguise, painstakingly creating Valentina who is frail, but Ailian doesn't think that Valentina is really as gentle and pure as she looks.
Noticing the change in Ailian's eyes, Valentina also knew that the impression of her frailty that she had maintained for many years was useless, and if it spread, it would definitely affect her ambition.
Turning her brain around, Valentina was thinking about what chips she could use to make a deal with Ailian, and let the other party keep this secret for her.
threaten her?The moment this idea appeared, Valentina vetoed it. Even if she told the king about Ailian and Nangong Long, Ailian could deny it outright. After all, she was the only outsider at the scene, not to mention that the king did not appear. A similar rumor.
And by doing that, it also exposed his ability to skillfully use the power of the dragon tool.
After much deliberation, there is only one most suitable way, which is to tell Ailian implicitly that he wants to become the new king of Gistate.
The king is old, the prince is mad, and the throne must pass to other heirs.
Of course, Valentina's turn is never her turn, so everything can only be won by herself, and she also has royal blood. Although her family has long since fallen, as long as she plans properly, she is still very likely to ascend to the throne.
As long as she becomes the king, she will allow Ai Lian to marry Nangong Long. With this bargaining chip, Ai Lian must be tempted.
It can not only keep secrets, but also win a powerful ally for itself, killing two birds with one stone (Nuoma Zhao).
The above thoughts are only a few seconds.
As for why she had to tell her cryptically, it was very simple, if she said it too bluntly, Longju would leave her, lose her status as a war concubine, and she would have no capital to rebel.
Just as Valentina was organizing her words, Nangong Long opened her eyes and looked at the two confronting people calmly.
He woke up as early as when the space fluctuated, but he didn't open his eyes.
Seeing Nangong Long who reacted so calmly, the corners of Valentina's eyes twitched uncontrollably.
".`You who have been thinking about how to become a queen all day, how come you come to me when you have time?"
Valentina couldn't help but her complexion changed, and then immediately suppressed the shock in her heart, and returned to her usual appearance.She hasn't taken actual action yet, so no one should know.
