They were a group of bald-headed people, dressed very neatly and looking very upright, riding strange animals, a bit like small dinosaurs, except that there was a spiral horn growing in the center of their foreheads, like a fake unicorn.

The other party took the initiative to drive the beast closer, and asked, "Is it the Gay Knights near Ebo?"

Cecil was taken aback, he didn't expect to be asked such a question. It happened that he didn't get the interpreter magic that day, so he unconsciously looked at Ange, and unexpectedly Ange also looked over.

The two of them stared at each other for a while, before An Ge spoke first: "You are the knight commander."

Fuck, what identity are you talking about at this time, you know that others can't understand me!

When Cecil was anxious, Ange took a step forward and kissed him on the cheek like a dragonfly.

The magic elk present and the stranger didn't react at all, they were very calm, but Cecil couldn't help but panicked with embarrassment, and couldn't say anything, so he nodded to the stranger and said, "Yes, I'm Knight Commander Cecil. "

"It really is you." The person standing at the front got off the beast and approached with something like a magic wand, "I'm a member of the Gaoting procurement team. I heard Dali tell about your deeds."

"Dali?" Cecil was taken aback, "Are you still in touch?"

The person who came laughed: "Dali took the initiative to become a wildling. This kind of situation often happens among the elves in Highgarden. If he wants to, he can return to Highgarden at any time. Our relationship is very good."

Hearing what Dali said, Cecil asked, "So High Court is near here?"

"No, it's very far away. It took us about 20 days to walk here from Gaoting." The visitor said, "We are going to Toto Port. I didn't expect to meet you here. It's a great honor."

"Uh..." Cecil was a little at a loss for words, and he was completely confused by the other party's friendly appearance, "Thank you."

"You probably don't understand." The visitor smiled friendly, "If you don't mind, you can ride the Roman Beast with me. We still have a spare ride."

"Roma?" The other party pronounced it exactly "Roma", and Cecil was no longer surprised, "There are two of us."

"You can ride together, it's no problem to sit two on one horse." The other party persistently invited, "Maybe you will doubt our intentions, but I swear in the name of magic that there is no malice, just because..."

"Cecil?" A familiar voice came from not far away, and the same familiar white flesh jumped over, "Why are you here?"

It was Dali who came. Compared with the normal and decent attire of other elves, his white flesh is really more dazzling.

"I wanted to take a look around." Cecil found a random reason, "Why are you here?"

"I heard that the procurement team was passing by, so I stopped by to ask about relatives and friends."

When Dali approached, Cecil realized that short hairs had grown on his body, and his fair skin looked much duller. However, this is not the most weird thing. Hair grows on the body, and even the face grows, so that there is no exposed skin!

That's right, the face is too, just like the animal!

Cecil stared blankly for a long time before pulling his eyes out. Such a spectacle is really exciting, so it's better to watch it less.

Now that Dali is here, the safety is greatly improved, and there is no reason not to take the convenient transportation.The Roman beast is very docile. After squatting down on the spot, Cecil and Ange climbed up. The two sat in front of each other. The posture was already very ambiguous. After he failed to control the rein several times, he could only change to Ange. Come and get it, the appearance of the two of them is even more subtle.

To be honest, when Cecil was on Earth, he didn't think much about such physical contact at all. It was common to fight with classmates, and it was more normal to share a bed with male colleagues, but now, in this environment However, contact with the same sex has become a sensitive matter, and it is inevitable to associate many things.

"Cecil Knight Commander, can you stay still?" Ange's voice rang in his ears, and even the heat was blowing into his ears, "The Roman beast is very fast, be careful not to fall."

When Ange said this, Cecil was startled and remained motionless like a log.

The speed of the Roman beast is indeed extremely fast, and the journey of two or three days of walking is completed in one day. That night, the purchasing team actually used leather tents when they camped, which can be said to be very extravagant.

"My compatriots also grow hair." Seeing Cecil's eyes flicking around, Dali said proactively, "It's just that they shave every day, and they wear clothes and the environment is warmer, so the hair won't grow so long."

Cecil was a little surprised and said, "You know this truth?"

"Of course, life will adapt to the environment. Different environments create different lives." Dali said, "After becoming a wild man, my hair has indeed become longer and thicker."

Why do you say that with such pride?

Cecil swallowed the spit back into his mouth and asked, "Then are you going home?"

"No, I just care about my relatives and friends." Dali said calmly, "Are you wondering why I want to be a wild man?"

"Indeed..." Cecil said, "It seems that the Highgarden elves often have you like this?"

"Well, not a lot." Dali raised his hand, "Let me show you some images, don't worry about that knight, I just use a backtracking magic."

Cecil turned his head and found that Ange was staring at Dali with wolf-like eyes, obviously not forgetting his duty.

"Dali helped me a lot before you came here." Cecil quickly explained, "You will understand after you get to know each other."

Ange casually said "hmm", and turned to look at the fire again - this is magic fire. The Gaoting procurement team is obviously not on the same level as the Ebo trade team. The shots are magic fire and magic water, and they don't care at all along the way The camp site is fully equipped and you can do whatever you want.

Dali put his index and middle fingers together and placed them on Cecil's forehead: "What you're about to see is a piece of history, don't worry, this is already a thing of the past and not reality."

As soon as Cecil agreed, the scene in front of him changed immediately without any transition.

This is a very high perspective. Countless flying saucer-like houses are stacked layer by layer at a staggered angle, forming a spiral tall building that leads directly to the blue sky. Many green plants and blooming flowers are planted in the staggered parts.White birds with huge wingspan shuttled among the buildings. Each bird dragged something like a cargo box behind it, and there were some people sitting on it. On the ground, Roman beasts dragged four-wheeled carriages between buildings, and metal signs hung At the door of every shop along the street, although the Highgarden elves still have not grown an inch of hair, their costumes are much more delicate than they are now.

Cecil's perspective is on a mountain, probably somewhere in the forest outside the city. A girl is sitting on a branch, playing a drop-shaped musical instrument. Beside her is a young boy. Arguing about the level of each syllable, the expression is very intimate.

This is the prosperous age of the Highgarden elves, right?

Cecil could move the angle of view but not the position. He kept looking around, trying to find some traces of industrial civilization. However, the city was too far away to see clearly.

The images lasted for a short time, and when the girl played a piece of melodious and fresh music, he couldn't help but wonder: What exactly are you going to show me?

A small black dot suddenly appeared in the sky, it was obviously far away but for some reason, Cecil could see it clearly, just like a black dot on a white paper, small and eye-catching.

The small black dots began to proliferate, like cell division, and when it grew large enough, Cecil realized that it was a small cube.As the number increases, the edges of the cube begin to shine, and they expand toward the center of the cube.

What the hell?

Cecil couldn't look away at all, but the boys and girls didn't seem to notice at all, they were still playing music leisurely.

"I said...then what, you should take a look!" Cecil couldn't help reminding, because the cube had proliferated to an extent that could not be ignored, almost covering the entire city, "Damn it, take a look!" !"

This is just history, what's the use of speaking out?

At a certain moment, the cube stopped proliferating, and when the brightness reached its peak, the cube began to disintegrate, scattered into countless bright small cubes and fell towards the city——violent explosions and shock waves occurred when the small cubes came into contact with any physical objects, and human beings It spreads at a speed that the eyes can't keep up with.

The boys and girls outside the city turned into a piece of flesh after the explosion before they could react. Even when the aftertaste of the music was still beating in Cecil's hearing, the sky and the earth had already turned into bright orange after the explosion.

Amidst the melodious music, the prosperous city of the Highgarden elves was destroyed.

Cecil suddenly woke up from the phantom, took a big breath for a while before calming down, and felt that he had seen many things, but the phantom was so real that his hands kept shaking.

"That's yours..."

"It's the real Highgarden, and that's where the name of Highgarden came from." Dali said slowly, "That was the most prosperous period of Highgarden. We went to the sky and entered the earth, and we were omnipotent. At that time, the elves of Highgarden felt that , One day we will decipher the true meaning of the universe, the truth of the world, but one day, for no reason, our civilization is destroyed, and in just a moment, Highgarden disappeared, and now it is just a ruin."

Cecil asked naturally: "Destroyed by who?"

"do not know."

Cecil: "Don't know?"

"Well, we exhausted all the power of the whole family and used the most top-level magic to leave this image, but so far we still can't find any similar civilization." When Dali spoke, his expression was very calm, "After that, we also After doing a lot of investigations, I found that not only us, but also many extinct civilizations had similar situations and were destroyed inexplicably. Although the forms of destruction were different, none of them could develop to the extreme.”

"Isn't this because you...uh, to destroy the enemy, you must destroy its civilization?" Cecil asked.

"It is true that some can find out the identity of the enemy, but there are many previous civilizations that are no longer able to know what happened." Dali's voice lowered unknowingly, "Among these things, what is the word that appears most frequently? do you know?"

Cecil was silent for a while, and said, "Dark world?"

"Yes, the dark world." Dali moved closer, almost whispering, "It is said that the ancient survivors came from the dark world."

Langdon's smile instantly appeared in Cecil's mind.
