Knights of the Light

spiral city

What had once been a single tower city had grown into a gigantic city-state.

The water source from Tristel, the largest river in the north, irrigates the entire city, and there is an endless stream of merchant ships coming and going from the embankment, maintaining the huge consumption of the city.

Numerous shops and residences organized the city neatly like a square chessboard, and neatly dressed residents flocked on the streets.

The underground city and the drainage system in the main city are clearly separated. There are special collectors for garbage and sewage. The public bathrooms are overcrowded every day, and the streets are clean and tidy. It doesn't look like a new city at all.

But the surrounding slums are different. Most of these people without household registration are criminals and refugees. Without land, they can only do odd jobs every day to receive meager relief porridge, and have no extra energy to take care of their lives.

As an emerging commercial city, countless people want to get opportunities here every year, but most of them leave without achieving anything.

Sitting by the pool outside the statue in the square, Alan enjoyed the sense of success.

This is the so-called becoming a CEO, marrying Bai Fumei, and reaching the pinnacle of life... I am a little excited to think about it, and I succeeded by accident.

Just as he was thinking, Percy got up with the ice cream he had bought.

"The blueberry one you like." Percy handed it to him and sat down beside him.

"It's not bad, but it's not as delicious as yours." Alan scooped up a spoonful for him to taste, then turned his gaze to the nightingale in the square, "Can it really sing?"

"This nightingale sings beautifully. Everyone feeds it, and many lovers come to see it." Percy smiled, and he also specially ordered that no one should catch it.

"So do we." As Alan was talking, the bird in the flower bed let go of its voice and sang a song.

Very touching, and a little familiar melody.

"Hey, this..." Alan was stunned for a moment, "This is that nightingale!"

"Which one?" Percy asked.

"It's the same bird that sang us the Sea of ​​Afshara back then, and you played it and said that as long as you sang it to me." Alan glanced at Percy, "You still said it so nicely back then, after so many years , I don’t think I’ve heard you sing before.”

"It turned out to be it, but my opinion remains the same." Percy reached out and pulled Alan into his arms, and blew into his ear, "I'll just sing it to you, and I'll let you order it tonight."

Can you please order now.Alan raised his eyebrows and acquiesced to Percy's proposal.

Then kiss it.

From the beginning, the surrounding people liked to watch, but now they are not surprised, and just ignore it.

They like to abuse dogs, why should they come together to seek abuse.

But occasionally there are exceptions, such as now.

A lich floated in front of them, the red cloak fluttered in the wind, the eyes of Youhuo jumped with the wind, and the expression could not be seen on the face of the skeleton, but his gloomy aura could be seen across the square. feel.

"I've helped you complete the final construction of the portal, but what about what you promised me?" The resentment around the skeleton almost became real, especially after seeing that Alan hadn't let go of Percy's lips, The blue special effect unique to Frostbolt has already emerged from the lich's bone claws.

"I only get one copy of the soul essence of the blue quality, or you can just let it go," Alan let go of Percy helplessly, "If you want the purple quality, you have to use a special relationship, just a corpse girl."

And when I said it at the time, there was no agreement on what quality it was, but the customary soul essence is the blue quality, which is already a soul essence that can only be extracted by undead at the legendary level, and the purple quality can only be extracted by undead at the god level. , the Golden Olympics cost is astronomical, and Faol can get it in exchange, but this is basically a huge loss!Besides, Corpse Girl is basically the same as the inflatable dolls of these liches, but they can move and talk just like ordinary people, so what?

"I don't accept it, it must be of purple quality to be worthy of my lover." Lich said firmly, and did not accept compromise at all.

"This..." After all, he was his teacher, and after spending so much effort over the years, Alan turned his attention to Percy, wanting to see his opinion.

To exchange for such a thing, Faol must be the one who can get it. Your Excellency Bei left ten opportunities to exchange for Faol. With such a large expenditure, Alan must ask Percy for his opinion.

Percy thought about it, and agreed, but put forward a condition: "The price of exchanging epic-quality soul essence is too high. I can exchange it, but you must give all the information and permissions of the portal, and withdraw from the shareholding."

This is a very reasonable opinion. After all, this kind of thing uses too many resources. It can even be said that it depends on the favor of Your Excellency Bei. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is priceless.

"That's fine." The lich agreed.

"Then sign the contract. I'll contact the Mage City first." Alan took out a blank scroll and quickly wrote the terms. All high-level transactions in the Mage Capital must have a clear destination, and they must be booked one day in advance. .

The two parties signed a contract, agreeing to go to the treasure house of the mage capital tomorrow to extract what he needed, and the lich also went to sort out the things about the portal first, and floated away.

"What kind of Corpse Girl is it that made him obsessed like that." Alan looked curiously at his back as he left.

"Maybe it's true love?" Percy smiled and hooked his fingers.

"It's very rare for a lich to lose their feelings. This situation is too rare." Alan explained the influence of dark energy on the soul of a lich. The lich, because I know that the lich will never love again."

"It's obvious that your teacher is an exception. His emotions can resist the invasion of dark energy." Percy shook his head slightly, but the other party had already become a corpse without a soul. Another soul of memory, is it worth it?

Why lose it and think about regretting it, he hugged Alan and kissed him hard.

Satisfied, Alan dragged Percy back to the tower.

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------

In the dark space, there is dead silence and coldness.

Inside the huge ice edge, a quiet and lonely woman is blocked.

The long golden curly hair is scattered behind her, the white robe is gorgeous and noble, the eyes are closed under the long eyelashes, but from the deep and perfect outline, one can imagine how beautiful the eyes will be when opened.

A skeleton with a red cloak appeared in front of her silently.

The fire in the skull's eyes flickered, and it stretched out its claws to touch the ice edge.

His speed was very slow, as if hesitating a little, but a blue light started from his fingertips and spread.

Flesh grew from the place where the blue light passed, and slender fingers appeared in the void, pale skin, and a handsome and gentle face under the cloak and hood.

The finger with bloody flesh touched the woman's face.

"Alinda." His voice was very special, like a bass organ, "so much time has passed."

You may never remember me.

There are always such outstanding people by your side, whether it is Tan or Bei, how can you remember the boy you accidentally saved.

If you had known me first, fate would not have been so cruel to you.

I will protect you well, and will not treat you as a bargaining chip against Bei like Tarn did, let alone Ren Bei treat you like that.

You were so beautiful that year, with a beautiful smile, and you loved every life that passed through your hands.

You said that it is your duty and ideal to protect and heal, and you said that you want the world to have no more disputes.

I silently send you flowers, just like those who like you.

Until that day I saw you frantically wanting to rush into the burning house, but was firmly suppressed by Bei, and saw your husband burning in the flames, and your child crying in the flames.

To see the light in your eyes turn into flames, to see you rush into the flames, to die in agony like that.

Later, you degenerated into a demon. In order to escape my love for you, I made myself a lich, but I still couldn't help following you.

But you died again.

Die before my eyes again.

alinda...

Wake up soon and see what I have done for you.
