"No one likes the feeling of destiny being out of their control, like a ship adrift in the ocean, which can only continue to live in confusion according to the wind, rain or current."
The black smoke is like a guide. An ordinary person would not be able to see anything.
"Evel, you also need to be mentally prepared. The medium is just a medium, and it may not be able to solve it... However, don't worry, the conditions for the establishment of the curse on you have not been met, and it will not be harmful to you."
Ethan stuck his head out and comforted.
"If we destroy the medium, the curse will not be fulfilled..."
"The one who suffered is the one who put the curse on you."
This is the only flaw that the witch has revealed so far. It is just a too obvious flaw, and maybe it is a trap she has carefully prepared.
The air was slightly cold, and the mottled walls recorded a sense of history. The hem of his clothes gently brushed the corner of the statue, and the black figure slowly moved forward, stopped briefly, and then slowly sat down on the bench. down.
Raising her head slightly, the sun shone on her face, outlining her shadow on the ground. Looking along the line of sight, the broken stained glass cut the smooth light.
This is a relic that once existed as a church several centuries ago. Only a few parts still retain the corresponding beliefs. No one can even tell what name the god once called. Soon, the gray clouds covered up the sunshine, leaving a gloomy atmosphere.
Nowadays, few people come here to pray. She just sits on the bench and looks at the sculpture. It feels like the inhuman creature of the opposite sex that she can see in her dreams.
Until the rolling of the wheels broke the unique tranquility, it seemed that someone had come here. She moved slightly, as if ready to leave, but she heard footsteps lingering at the door, and it didn't look like the group of people who were taking her away. .
After a while, there was no movement in my ears, and the footsteps stopped at some point. The ruins of the church of faith returned to their original calm, so quiet that only the gentle wind sang in my ears.
It seemed that he was a passerby. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and even her straight back relaxed unconsciously.
But before she could relax for a few seconds, subtle footsteps sounded in her ears. The distance was like teleporting from outside the door to behind her.
As soon as she stood up and wanted to leave, a cold long sword stabbed out from the side, lying in front of her. The hand holding the hilt of the sword was still smelling of faint black air. There was obviously no wind blowing at the moment, and the black air was blowing. But it floated in her direction.
"Sure enough, I found you."
A familiar voice sounded in her ears, and she was obviously startled when she heard the voice. It didn't give people a weird and oppressive feeling like the witch...
The girl turned around, revealing her face that was covered by a hood.
"Yuliya!"
The moment he saw her appearance, Jiang Chenchuan was stunned for a moment. Perhaps it was because she left such a deep impression on him last time, but when he saw her again, he felt a subtle sense of strangeness.
It was as if the person in front of me was no longer the same person as before.
"Mr. Ewell, and Mr. Ethan, you are here too."
Julia Decavo lowered her eyes and said softly. She was still as well-behaved and docile as before, but there was a black pattern printed on her neck.
"Why is it you, Yulia?"
Ethan looked a little disappointed when he saw that he was an acquaintance.
"Your injury..."
"My injury is healed. The adult gave me treatment and I'm fine now."
In order to prove that her words were correct, Yulia also specially lifted up her sleeves. All the scars that were originally hideous had disappeared, and her delicate skin was pale with a hint of pink.
"But, it is obvious that the mark is pointing towards... could it be said that, Yulia, you are the medium of Ivel's curse seal?"
Ethan was puzzled, but that was the fact, but he didn't know that the prerequisite for Yulia to be cured was to join the witch sect.
"joined?"
Jiang Chenchuan, who was the only one who knew about it, asked.
Yulia just nodded slightly. I don’t know why, but her silence at this time made people feel a little sad.
"Where's Chudong? He's the one from Xia Jing who took you there."
After that night, the two of them lost track. Now that Yulia mysteriously appears in the ruins, has Chudong returned as well?
"She...she's not here."
Yulia hesitated for a moment, with a troubled look on her face, as if she had something to hide.
"I see."
Knowing that it was inconvenient for her to say more, Jiang Chenchuan signaled that she did not need to continue. Probably because they had been abandoned for a long time, a trace of inconspicuous green grew on the ruins. It was just the cold of winter that made them frost-covered. Snow covered.
"Let's go first. If we have anything to say, let's go back and talk. I don't know why I have a strange feeling staying here. It's like... I always feel like something is staring at me."
From the moment he came in, Ethan had the feeling that someone was staring at his back all the time. He turned around to look for it, but found nothing except the strange white sculpture in the center of the ruins.
It was probably the illusion of Ethan's sensitivity. Seeing Jiang Chenchuan and Yulia chatting nonchalantly, Ethan touched the back of his neck.
I didn't feel anything at first
, when Ethan said this, it seemed like there was something really weird here.
"Okay, let's go first."
Jiang Chenchuan nodded and responded.
They walked outside and passed by a broken stone pillar with some strange patterns carved on it. Jiang Chenchuan accidentally glanced at it and felt that it was somewhat familiar.
"Yuliya, why are you here?"
Jiang Chenchuan asked curiously.
"I don't know. When I woke up, I found myself sleeping on the bench over there. When I came over, I discovered that this was a destroyed church. It must have been many years old. Look at this building. The style is obviously different from the church in Polnia.”
Following Jiang Chenchuan's gaze and observing the surroundings, as she said, such buildings are indeed rare in Bornia. Moreover, it is not easy for such ancient ruins to be preserved in such a relatively complete manner.
The surrounding light suddenly brightened up, and when I looked up, I saw that dark clouds were passing by, and the sunlight that had been blocked once again filled Polnia.
"It must be a god that was once believed in... It's so pitiful that after losing its believers, it was forgotten in the ruins."
Ethan couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Chenchuan turned around and stared at the statue whose face was blurred. It had been eroded by wind and frost, and he could not distinguish the statue's face and movements.
I don’t know why, but an indescribable emotion came to my mind and disappeared quickly.
"The...god here, does he have a name?"
Jiang Chenchuan turned around and asked.
"Probably, yes..."
Yulia was not sure, but Ethan, a believer in peace, answered his doubts:
"This place... was originally supposed to be the place of faith belonging to the original god, Uranus. Unfortunately, this is all that is left now."
