[Western Fantasy] The mystery of life and death

【Huiyue Temple】

Although it was still a moonless night, the temple of Huiyue was brightly lit.

The Huiyue Temple was redecorated carefully, and the high-ranking priests and guards gathered together with the courtiers at all levels in the temple. After the ruling king Augusta gave a speech, everyone cheered and cheered, and the protagonist of the banquet, Luo But the card never showed up.

After dancing a few dances with the beautiful Mirror Lake maid, Prince Palmer politely withdrew from the feast on the pretext of being unwell.He left the hall and came to the wide terrace, leaning on the beautifully carved railings and watching the excitement of the feast from a distance.

He found that not everyone was enjoying themselves.There seemed to be hidden worries in the kind smiles of those elders.The member of the investigation team that day - High Priest Eric seemed a little apprehensive, he looked around from time to time as if he was looking for something.The high-ranking guard Pete drank silently, meditating alone.The high priest Michael was a little flustered, and he kept drinking one cup after another.

Interesting, their most respected captain—His Royal Highness Luoka is back, why is he not in a happy mood?

By the way, what about Altai?Palmer searched carefully, but couldn't find Altai among the crowd.Palmer remembered that the wound on his face had healed into a thin line.It took so many days to heal, Palmer thoughtfully swirled the fine wine in his glass.

The banquet was already halfway through, and the slightly drunk people made the atmosphere more lively.But Loka still didn't show up.Palmer's face darkened.

Although Luo Ka returned safely, there are still many doubts that cannot be explained in the hearts of many people.The storm had been so intense that day that it was a battleground for scouting the flaming lizard's habitat afterward.There are many indications that Lorca was injured in the fight.At least the team members who experienced the storm were all ragged and miserable.

And after missing for such a long time, he came back intact. If he performed a healing technique on himself, those skin injuries would be nothing to worry about, but why is his whole body in clean and tidy clothes?It's almost like getting ready to dress up for a banquet.

What did he go through?Is it really a magical space fission?

Then Palmer saw Lorca walking down the garden path to the hall.

Lorca seemed to be thinking about something, and he suddenly stopped on the gravel path.Only then did Palmer notice a person walking out of the swaying shadow of the flower—it was Altai.

"Master Altai, why are you here? Why don't you go in for a drink?" Loka stretched out his hand in the direction of the hall and gave way gracefully.

"Why did Your Highness come here? You are the protagonist of the banquet." Altai said: "Elder Abelson really cares about you. After checking for so long, are you still in good health?"

This obviously caused Loka's displeasure, and the inspection just now brought him strong psychological discomfort.He felt that Elder Abelson, Elder Waldron, and Elder Washburn had examined him so carefully, not just caring, but he felt that they were looking for something, and the whole process was full of a heavy sense of close surveillance.They asked him a lot of questions, these questions were completely irrelevant, some were related to the task that day, some had nothing to do with it, Lorca almost recalled all his life experiences from childhood to today.In the end, he was even asked to take off all his clothes and enter a room full of magic patterns to stay alone for a while. The magic patterns flickered alternately for a long time.Although he didn't feel any physical discomfort, he still felt like a guinea pig under strict inspection.This humiliated him deeply.

Thinking of these, even the polite smile on Loka's face disappeared instantly.

"Thank you for your concern, everything is fine." He replied coldly.

"Your Highness, since you disappeared, we have been very worried about you. What happened afterwards?" Altai asked.

"I've already reported it to the Council of Elders in detail. Could it be that the chief guard's ears are bad and he didn't hear you clearly?" Luoka said coldly, "Or do you need me to report it alone?"

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I don't mean that. I'm just very curious about His Royal Highness's adventure." Altai looked at Loka playfully, looking him up and down, "The elders are also very curious. His Highness was injured in an accident in Yimeki Luoshan. , How could it suddenly appear in the Doro Valley again. Is it really a space fission? Elder Absolen’s luck is really bad.”

"Humph!"

"It's a pity that His Highness doesn't remember. It's good not to remember. That lunatic Mason is also delirious and doesn't remember many things. What a coincidence." Altai said meaningfully. "You all—don't remember."

Why mention Mason again?Lorca was puzzled.Why both Elder Abelson and Altai intentionally or unintentionally associate Mason with themselves?

"Does Your Highness know about the Kedile Mountain Miluo Sect?" Altai asked, and he observed Loka for a while, "It seems that you don't know. Hehe, I don't remember, I don't know, that's great." He mocked. "You and Mason don't remember, don't know. It's almost like the same person said."

Although Loka didn't understand what he meant, he sensed Altai's dark hostility.But Altai's hostility does not seem to be aimed at him alone.Lorca couldn't figure it out, Altai seemed to ignore him and seemed to see through his details.Loka didn't understand why Altai had such a strange attitude.Altai also looked at him strangely, making it difficult for Lorca to describe.

He stared at Altai closely, his gaze was like a blade, "Then, Lord Altai, do you still remember? What happened at that time? You were right behind me, who released that arrow? Did you see clearly? "

In the dark, the long scar on Altai's side face was completely exposed in front of Luoka.

"Your injury is so serious that you haven't healed yet. Who hurt you? Do you remember?" Luoka raised his eyebrows, "Oh, you don't remember? Don't remember, don't know, it's really good .”

Altai snorted dissatisfied, but he was speechless to Lorca's questioning, but he had an attitude of indifference.He could only politely step aside, "Please, Your Highness, the banquet has already started for a while." Although his tone was respectful, his attitude was strange, as if besides, he might as well play this game with you.

Since Lorca came back, he felt that everyone had become weird.Altai's attitude aroused the unknown karma in Luoka's heart.Loka raised his eyebrows, okay, then let's play with you.

Luoka raised his forehead suddenly, as if thinking of something, he said to Altai, "By the way, I remembered something, it seems to have something to do with Mason, but..." His eyes glanced around.Go under the shade of the lush trees.

Altai immediately followed in the darkness.

"Bah!"

Before Altai understood the situation, he received a heavy punch on the face. He staggered for a few steps before standing still, and spit out a tooth with a pop and blood.

Altai fought back violently out of embarrassment, but was easily dodged by Loka several times, and he received several heavy blows in the abdomen.He was so beaten that he vomited his gastric juices, and then he was hit by Luoka's heavy fist on the stone pillar in the garden, and a long crack appeared on the stone pillar.Seeing that Loka's attack was swift and fierce, Altai had to dodge left and right. There was a crisp "crack", and he couldn't dodge enough to be hit by Luoka's knee, breaking a few ribs.

"Don't you want to know what has to do with Mason?" Loka looked down at the half-kneeling and panting Altay condescendingly, like a handsome and ruthless God of War, "This is the gift I'm passing on to Your Excellency on his behalf." He kicked Kicking Altai over, he sneered, "Are you still satisfied?" Loka was about to step forward to make up for it again, but he heard rustling noises, it turned out that it was Prince Palmer who had arrived.

Palmer stared in surprise at the sight in front of him.

Lorca clapped his hands, stepped forward and put his shoulders on him, "Palmer, why are you here? Are you looking for Altai?"

"Lorka, what are you..." Palmer glanced at Altay who was on the ground in disbelief, and then looked at Loka in disbelief.

"Oh, I was going to the banquet hall, and I happened to find Altai fell down here and needed help. So..." He shrugged, "Come here and help me."

Altai on the ground groaned, and spit out a mouthful of blood with a puff.

Loka squatted down and reached out to him, "Master Altai, are you okay? Do you need me to heal you? I am very good at repairing."

Altai's eyes were shattered, he didn't know whether it was because of panic or pain, he suddenly looked at Palmer for help.

"Lorca, the banquet is halfway through, and you are the protagonist. How can you be so late." Palmer said softly. "Father has been waiting for you, everyone is waiting for you."

"I'm so sorry for keeping His Majesty waiting." Loka immediately stood up and tidied up the fine folds of the military uniform. "Let's go, we can't delay any longer." He dragged Palmer away from the dark corner in a hurry.Palmer couldn't beat him, so he had to look back frequently, watching Altai, like a lost dog, gradually sinking into the darkness until he couldn't see him.

The author has something to say:

In fact, there are many people who bully Mason, but Altai is the most unlucky.Sure enough, this guy is too annoying
