[Western Fantasy] The mystery of life and death

I don't know when the surrounding area fell into a misty white mist again. Cuista, Jinghu, and Yimeiji Luoshan disappeared, and the blurred and distorted scenery was swirling, as if something was about to come out of memory.Loka held his head and struggled hard. He felt that he was underwater, as if in a small pool.He raised his head and saw more and more silhouettes of ferocious beasts on the surface of the water through the turbid water wave light and shadow.Stains of blood slowly floated up in the turbid water, and Luoka knew that he had suffered several injuries on his back.He could have dived for a long time, but now he was a little lethargic.He wanted to force himself to stay awake, but his consciousness was irresistibly dragged into the boundless darkness.

The darkness was gradually replaced by a vast expanse of whiteness, and the white mist dissipated.Loka found himself in a barren mountain, with rugged rocks and cross-sections of gray, ocher, and reddish-brown interlaced, with a barren and desolate beauty.He remembered that this was the northern part of Yimeki Luoshan, and he would enter the habitat of the Flame Monitor Lizard tomorrow to perform a mission.They need to prepare a large amount of anesthetics extracted from datura juice.

Loka walked carefully among the rugged rocks while looking for Datura trees. This time, he needed to collect a lot of roots to refine them.Prince Palmer and chief guard Altai followed behind, and Altai was very irritable and kept complaining.The team members arranged to settle down the mountain for rest.The terrain here is dangerous and steep. Loka didn't want the team members to be in danger. He planned to go alone, but Palmer always insisted on leading the way and went to dangerous places in person, so he had to take him with him.Altai also clamored to follow.On the edge of a cliff, they finally found a few datura trees, with white flowers like skirts hanging from the branches.

Palmer stood facing the wind on the edge of the cliff, casually picked a mandala flower, brought it to his lips and said, "This white flower is so pure, but it can be refined into the most powerful aphrodisiac." Altai sneered, Looking at Palmer with a thoughtful look.

When he turned around again, Palmer and Altai were nowhere to be seen, so Lorca turned back to look for them.The rocks on the road gradually turned monotonous gray-white, Luoka's heart tightened, and he was about to enter the habitat of the flame monitor lizard.He subconsciously wanted to hold the short sword "Morning Dew" at his waist, but he couldn't touch anything.

Loka looked down and saw that he was still in the uniform of the chief priest, but he was alone, and all the equipment was gone.

【Imeki Luoshan-Northern Foot Cliff】

Prince Palmer stood on the edge of the cliff, and the mountain wind was strong.He leaned on a mandala tree and looked at the mountains in the distance, his handsome eyebrows were full of melancholy.This is the highest point at the northern foot of Yimeijiluo Mountain. You can have a panoramic view of the undulating mountains. The guards are leading the hounds to search among the rugged mountains and rocks.

Last night, the ruling king Augusta forced him to rest for a night, and he received meticulous treatment from several priests who were good at healing. When he woke up in the morning, he was more than half recovered.Seeing that he was worried and eager to start searching immediately, Augusta ordered Elder Abelson to accompany him up the mountain to search.Chief Guard Altai also followed, except for the scar on his face, he has fully recovered.

Prince Palmer patiently explained to chief guard Altai the reason for coming here to search and rescue. He believed that Lorca was hit by a tornado and would probably fall into the nearby mountains. "Elder Abelson, Altai, you see, although the terrain from here to the habitat of the flame monitor lizard is circuitous and dangerous, the straight-line distance from here to that location is actually very short." He gestured, "If you are swept by a tornado from the sky , it is very likely that it will fall in this direction. Judging from the direction of movement of the storm yesterday, the possibility is very high."

Altai, the chief guard, was rather disapproving.At an angle Palmer couldn't see, he rolled his eyes.

Elder Abelson scrutinized the topography of the mountain, but agreed with Palmer's point of view.I appreciate it even more in my heart.Prince Palmer was intelligent and modest from an early age.Although he seldom participates in the missions of the guards because of his frailty, he is very appropriate when it comes to matters.

Elder Abelson thought of his childhood experience, and couldn't help but sigh again.Prince Palmer lived on the mainland when he was young, and he must have suffered a lot from being displaced, so he was more sensible and worked harder than children of the same age.

But things in the world are not just working hard.Altai, who was naughty since he was a child, awakened the power in his blood early on.Showing the unique strength and bravery of the typical Gale people.When Lorca became an adult, his comprehension of the magical realm also advanced by leaps and bounds, and he became the youngest chief priest.When Palmer became an adult, he could barely cast high-level priest-level spells with the help of various magic crystal accessories carefully crafted for him by the Presbyterian Church.Elder Abelson sighed.

From last night until now, seeing Prince Palmer has been suffering from annoyance, self-blame, and worry.Prince Palmer clearly blamed himself for his inability to save Lorca.Elder Abelson comforted: "I believe that Loka will be found. He has been very clever since he was a child, and he will be fine."

Chief of the Guard Altai deeply agrees with this point.He has the advantage of a typical Gale tribe manpower and burly, but every time he fights with Loka since he was a child, he can't take advantage of it, and even suffered a lot.This guy was scheming when he was a child, and when he grew up, he couldn't beat him even without tricks. Thinking of all the unpleasant things, Altai snorted coldly.

This feeling of total repression became more and more obvious as they grew up.He is particularly outstanding in pursuing the opposite sex. Although Altai disdains Lorca for having a handsome appearance that is quite attractive to women, he has to admit that Lorca always surpasses him in terms of strength.He still broods over his failure to pursue Trista.

The people of the Gaefeng tribe all appreciate being tall and brave.Altai is also favored by many beautiful Jinghu girls and straightforward Gale girls.Originally thought that as a burly and brave member of the Gale tribe, pursuing the daughter of Gabriel, the high priest of the Gale tribe, should have an irreplaceable innate advantage.Princess Cuista also has the characteristics of a girl from the Gale Clan.

For some reason, Altai has never been used to Loka. This guy has always been proud of himself since he was a child, not because he is beautiful.However, Altai also knew that Lorca's fighting strength was not inferior to his own. This recognition made Altai deeply feel that he would live under the oppression of that radiant shadow forever.

The most dazzling and unsightly existence in Huiyue Temple has finally disappeared.Altai couldn't feel lucky.He always felt that there was something artificial behind it.Only when Loka appears where he should appear in theory can Altai really feel at ease, no matter whether he is dead or alive or becomes something else.The corners of Altai's mouth curled up slightly, but it caused the pain of the wound, and the muscles on his face twitched.The pain made Altai feel hatred again.

In Altai's mind, the greatest humiliation among countless failures was that he lost to Princess Cuista.Princess Cuista has also always admired Altai's bravery. Altai thought that he would easily win out among many suitors, but he did not expect that Her Royal Highness would eventually fall in love with this little boy named Luoka.

Cuesta also rejected Prince Palmer's pursuit. Altai thought it was reasonable. Although Prince Palmer was personable and gentle, he was too weak for the girls of the Gale tribe. Palmer's strength in all aspects Also weaker than Princess Custa.

Altai glanced at Palmer, seeing him standing on the edge of the cliff with the mandala on his back, unconsciously he was a little nervous. Although Palmer stood gracefully, he was like a cliff between the jagged rocks. The lonely branch, in the wild hunting mountain wind, has an indescribably desolate loneliness, as if it will be taken away by the strong wind at any time.

The author has something to say:
