Reborn Ancient Western Europe
Chapter 25 The Devil's Gate
Since then, Prince Grace has never been here again, but Amelia still stays here.
Gray untied the silver chain on his ankle, and finally decided to go and see the city of Santa Lua with his own eyes.
Knowing a city from the text of a book is actually completely different from walking on the streets of the city to observe and feel.
The city depicted between the lines in the book is devoid of any emotion.Even if the author expresses all kinds of emotions, once they are translated into words, the fireworks will be lost and the barrier will be added.But now, Grey's fingers brushed over the ancient stone bricks of the city wall, and the coldness of late autumn spread along his fingertips all the way to the bottom of his heart.
It is indeed written in the book that the city of Santa Lua has been looted by many surrounding cities.However, if you have not seen this scarred city wall in person, you may never understand how strong the people living in this city hide under the smiling faces.
A little girl selling flowers ran past Ge Rui with a smile on her face. Across the street, an old lady was waving to her.People on the street stepped away kindly and forgave her recklessness.
Gray likes this city, which is different from his liking for Deimos City.He felt that Dimos was more of a safe haven for rest. That city was restless, and the superficial indifference was just to suppress the passion that would erupt one day.As for Santalua, the city is bustling and secular, and it is more suitable as a permanent residence.
He thought that maybe when he was old, he could come to this city to settle down.Buy a house in a quiet place where you can hear the church bells blowing in the wind every morning and evening.If I still have someone to accompany me at that time, maybe I can go to church together to worship. If I am alone, I just need to listen quietly.
In this city, even death is a peaceful thing.
The prosperity of Santalua is completely different from that of the imperial capital.It has nothing to do with the elaborate costumes of the aristocrats, the flashing jewelry, and one never-ending banquet after another.It is more reflected in the vendors who hawk from morning to night, the dense crowds on the street are the endless boats on the pier, and all kinds of entertainers.
Gray's gaze rested on a divination girl by the roadside.Holding a translucent crystal ball, she sat down by the road with her head bowed. She had honey-colored skin that was rare among imperial people, and her long brown hair hung down to her ankles.
Gray couldn't help but look at her a few more times.This girl has a special cold aura. In the busy and busy environment of the street, she is the only one who is quiet and still.It's like a black and white that suddenly pops up in a color picture.
As if sensing Gray's gaze, she raised her head and looked over coldly.The green eyes were unblinking, like a pair of opals.
"Ah, that girl." Amelia who was following behind him exclaimed a little, and said, "A foreigner?"
Gentiles, an indeterminate general term, generally refers to those who have no national attachment.They either live in the blank area between countries, or they are unwilling to accept another country after their own country is annexed, and choose to wander around.
Gentiles are rarely seen in the imperial capital, and the perfect system of this country cannot accommodate them.Most of the time, they live in some small countries, or areas with no definite affiliation.
Gray's family, Tislandi, had once had Gentile members.So I still know a little bit about some of their habits.He gave Amelia a tug to signal her not to keep staring at him.
However, the girl looked at Gray and called out, "You, come here."
Gray was stunned for a moment, looked at the girl's indifferent expression, and walked over.Amelia followed behind him with a curious look on her face.
The girl didn't even look at Amelia, she just stared at Gray for a while, then suddenly reached out and tapped his forehead lightly.
"People from the temple?" She withdrew her hand and asked coldly.
Temple?Gray looked at her in surprise and shook his head.
She frowned and said, "You have the mark of the temple on your forehead."
Gray touched his forehead, and suddenly remembered that in the dream, the man named Asa had cut his forehead.
"Do you know Asa?" Gray asked after thinking about it.
The girl's expression suddenly became sharp, she looked at Gray, and for a moment, Gray felt as if he had been pierced by a knife blade.
"Are you Gray Sisfer Tislandi?" She looked at Gray and asked.
"You know me?" Gray couldn't help asking.Even if he really became a man of the hour overnight as Beth said.It doesn't make sense, can you recognize yourself by anyone you meet on the street?
The girl showed a rare smile and said, "I've been waiting for you here in Santa Lua for a long time."
She raised the crystal ball in her hand and slammed it on the ground.Accompanied by the crisp cracking sound, white mist rose up and surrounded the three of them.
"Master Gray, I'm sorry."
These were the last words Gray heard before losing consciousness.
In this place again, Gray stood blankly in the void, at a loss.On the silky black-blue sky, the constellations are constantly changing shapes, and the Milky Way is still shining, but the child wrapped in a small blanket cannot be seen.
Asa wasn't there either.At this moment, he was the only one in this entire boundless void.In his original appearance, Lianxi, he exists here.
The Polaris was still hanging high in the sky, and Gray looked up at it, feeling dazed.
"If you look at it for too long, you won't be able to come back." Behind him, the girl's voice sounded.Then, his right shoulder was hit hard.
Gray frowned, complained, and turned around rubbing his shoulders.The girl with green eyes was standing there, looking at him coldly.
"Didn't Asa tell you that you are absolutely not allowed to enter this kind of place casually?" The girl looked at Gray, frowned, and said.
"I didn't come here myself!" Gray couldn't help complaining, looked around, and asked, "What exactly is this place?"
A cold smile floated on the girl's lips, and she said word by word: "This is the so-called 'Devil's Gate' in the legend."
Devil's Gate.
Devil's Gate is a folk saying.In historical records, they are generally called space cracks.300 years ago, demons came to the world through them to do evil. They are infinitely powerful and possess evil powers unimaginable by human beings.They dry up rivers, crack the ground, and create magma.They ruined the crops, killed the poultry and horses raised by humans, and gradually began to take pleasure in killing humans.
God sympathized with the sufferings of human beings, so he selected some devout human beings to become his people, and gave them great strength and immortal bodies.This group of people gathered together in battle, and after all kinds of hard battles, they finally won the victory and completely expelled the demon from the land.
Even if Gray believes that this battle really exists, it is hard to imagine that the space he is in at this moment is actually the passage for demons to come to the world.
"There are some things that are not recorded in the history books." The girl glanced at Gray and said, "Although the war between the temple and the devil has been won, there are still several demon gates, even the temple, there is no way Completely shut them down. You can only watch them all the time to prevent demons from invading again."
"In order to prevent panic, only some nobles in the temple and the imperial capital know about this matter. This is why, after the end of the demon war, the temple can still retain its supremacy."
She said, suddenly sneered, looked at Gray and said, "Although I don't know how you got here, but remember, never mention things here to others. Unless, you want to bring bad luck for yourself."
"Ominous?" Gray couldn't help asking back.
The girl didn't answer him. She looked at the shining Milky Way in the distance and said, "If you see Asa next time, please send me a message. The favor owed to him has been repaid. Next time we meet, his life will be paid off." I will accept it!"
Before Gray could react, the familiar feeling of weightlessness surged up again.He struggled, but saw tears flowing from the girl's opal-like green eyes, wetting her entire cheek.
Gray opened his eyes abruptly.After a while, he let out a low sigh.
It seemed that every time I lost consciousness and woke up, I would face an unimaginable situation.
He straightened up from the bed, his hands and feet were still weak.He leaned against the head of the bed, and after a while of silence, he lowered his head and opened the skirt of his clothes.
Starting near the collarbone, tiny rose-colored bruises spread all over the chest.There are even sporadic bruises on the right shoulder and the inside of the arm.
He is not a child who is really unknown, so he naturally knows how these traces came from.
"I said, are you a pedophile?" He held his forehead and asked helplessly.
In another corner of the bedroom, a slender black-haired young man stood against the wall, looking at him without saying a word.
Gray untied the silver chain on his ankle, and finally decided to go and see the city of Santa Lua with his own eyes.
