Air did not bring pressure to him like water, but when Uriel took the first breath of air into his lungs, the feeling of exhaustion and weakness spread to his internal organs. Dirty water soaked through his clothes, and when the wind blew, his skin quickly lost heat as if it were pressed against frozen steel. He staggered because of this, and the mounds he usually crossed in a few steps turned into cliffs. No matter how much magic power strengthened his body, his physical strength would eventually run out, not to mention that his unhealed wounds were soaked in ice water and the bandages had long been lost. The pain follows the exertion and surrounds the body like maggots in the tarsal bones.
But it doesn't matter. He admired the wilderness and the morning light with joy, and even the moist and soft earth under his feet was full of life. A nice day. Uriel first attributed it to Gaia according to his past habits, but then he hesitated for a moment and changed the object of prayer to the gods. The Gaia here is not my Gaia. In order to avoid confusion, he had better respect every god in Knox as the Romans do.
He originally thought that he would trust Otto more, but the scene that fate showed him made him anxious for a long time, and he was not comforted until now. It seems that I should trust myself more than the God of Destiny. Uriel could not restrain such arrogant thoughts, but he was indeed qualified to think so: because the future was not invincible, and he personally proved this point of view.
I am rewriting my destiny...
A strange but understandable force rotates between the bones, encouraging them to support the trunk and limbs - especially the limbs, promoting blood flow out of the heart, and finally allowing this body that is on the verge of squeezing out every ounce of strength to move forward. The whole process was full of pain, but even so, Uriel wanted to celebrate this moment. Climbing the hills was the hardest, but he also felt as light as if he could ride the wind.
Shadows passed over the head, and a snipe landed on the bank of the river. It turned to look at the wet guy who had just climbed ashore. Maybe it thought he was a stupid duck. This is a section of the river that can be called clean. The vast waves washed away everything in an instant, leaving only sand and stubborn rocks. But the river is by no means completely ruthless... it does not insist on assimilating the frost, allowing its other kind of companion to take root at the bottom of the river. What could be more appropriate to call luck than this? The snipe spread its wings in the waves and ignored Uriel.
As soon as I landed, Uriel thought to himself, something is wrong. He almost thought he was back in Silverdome City. However, when he opened his eyes wide, he realized that the hill he was crossing was a river embankment, and the soft grass was filled with sand and mud. The moment he realized this fact, the strength he poured into his limbs disappeared. The grass was so tempting, no wonder the dead were unwilling to get up.
rest for a bit. The apprentice told himself that rest was necessary. So he couldn't wait to let himself be persuaded, first freed his legs, and they relaxed according to his will, allowing him to kneel on the dewy lawn...
...then place the weight on your back on your back. Joey's armor made a clanking sound, and his slow brain didn't think he should take them off in the river. What Uriel was thinking about was that he and Joey were at Kamaria's altar, and they were almost exhausted from moving the ice sculpture. This time I was the only one left, and the person carrying me was a guy wearing steel armor that seemed to be filled with ice, which was exactly the opposite from before. This was his last clear thought.
When Uriel woke up, half of Lucia's sun had sunk into the valley. He sat up and found that the snipe he had seen earlier by the river was roasting on the fire in front of him. Feathers were scattered all over the floor, and its mature eyes stared straight at the apprentice with a hint of plaintive accusation. For a moment he actually felt a little ashamed. But the heat and aroma are intertwined, and together they stimulate the instinct to eat and drive the arm. Uriel gave up struggling completely.
Joey stepped out from behind a berry bush, his shadow burning in the fire. Noticing his appearance, Uriel was so surprised that he forgot what he was doing.
"How do I remember that it was me and not you who just unearthed a piece of frozen seafood from the bottom of the river?"
"Be respectful of this piece of seafood, apprentice." The young man stirred the firewood pile with a stick, and the flames jumped up to Lao Gao, almost burning the apprentice's hair. "Otherwise, your internship may not be qualified."
Uriel was still surprised that Joey looked quite...complete. His limbs met the standards of a healthy human being, and not a single finger was missing; Sauron was not around, so his head was well placed on his neck. His sleeves were torn, but the exposed skin was intact, with no scratches visible. His clothes have never changed, and the seven-pointed star on his shoulder armor also looks abrupt under the fiery red sunset, without even losing its color. The leather armor around his waist and abdomen was broken into strips, and the buckle was held at the end of the strap, still trying to hold on. The apprentice couldn't help but look down at himself. How should I put it, he smelled closer to rotten aquatic products.
The mentor noticed the apprentice's gaze. "It's just a dislocation," he explained. Uriel suspected that he did not understand the definition of dislocation. "You are hurt?"
"It's... I'm not good at learning." It's okay not to mention the wound, but it stings immediately when it is mentioned. Iconi taught him a lesson, and Uriel didn't mind explaining it to his mentor. But comparing Joey's state, he felt it was a bit hard to describe.
"The Church of Gaia?"
"You...that's it." Uriel glanced at the bottle of holy water on the side. Unexpectedly, they ended up being used on me. "Roma, she..."
"Why did you come to me?" Joey interrupted him.
"It's a monk from the Church of Gaia. They said you were dead." I also had a prophetic dream like that. Gods willing, I always see "future possibilities" that can be changed.
"I will not die," the young man told him.
Well, you can swim. Uriel thought to himself. "Why are you trying to hold back the flood?"
"The devil destroyed the dike."
"Then next time, can you deal with the demons first?" Uriel couldn't help but say, "Mercury Lord Rameta, the demon lord of the starless night. She will use the flood of the Golden Bird River to kill you! She is in advance at Six Finger Castle Set a trap, that mirror! You knew it was her."
"Mirror?"
"I used 'spiritual vision' to go in once." Uriel observed Joey's expression. "At that time, Roma and I were at the shuttle station of Six Finger Castle. There were mercenaries outside attacking the tower castle. A dark wizard helped Us, now it seems that he is planning to catch us all... Anyway, I suddenly felt kindhearted and decided to help them guard the ladder, and I used magic to see if anyone would sneak in again. "
The young man's expression remained unchanged. But since Uriel had seen the future after entering the mirror, he could not deny it. "I met Lameta in San Carlos. She supported the rebels in their attack on the Red Wall. My primary target was the rebel leader, so I didn't pay much attention to her. She once used a mirror to change the coordinates of the Star Gap during the battle. In order to avoid being fooled again, I informed the headquarters to temporarily suspend the operation of the matrix array. How do you know about Lametta?"
"It's the Black Knight. He's coming for me again."
"I'm sure he doesn't want to find you. Why, the Tome of Oaths?"
"Did Sauron tell you?" Uriel always carried the parchment with him to restore his magic power. The amount of work required to find Joey under the river was desperate, so he adopted the most efficient method: using "spiritual vision" to search different areas, and then using parchment scrolls to survive. This can compress the time of each search to less than one second without worrying about physical problems.
In fact, Uriel only dived twice in total from last night to morning. The first time was before he thought of this method, and the second time was after he saw Joey in his dream. Things seemed to be getting easier, but in the end Uriel still had to spend a lot of energy digging into the ice near him.
"When I was looking for Roma in the Shimmering Forest, I met Ms. Mabel Magdalene, a nature elf and a dream weaver. Ms. Mabel kept a "Confessions" entrusted to her by the Knight of the White Night. The Black Knight robbed the church's sacred book in Bloomnot, which is another "Confessions"." Uriel unfolded the parchment, "I met him there for the second time. The last time was at the Silver Summit. Gaia Church in the city, he may have thought that the scroll of oaths I carried was the third ‘Confessions’, but it was not.”
"This is not why he left the scroll of oath in your hands." The messenger seemed more sure than the apprentice.
"I never understand their thoughts." Uriel stared at the golden divine inscriptions. "Anyway, he saved my life. The Crusader Iconi and his companions who were traveling with me at that time caught me in order to ask you to keep the church's secrets. Later, Brother Azby heard that you were dead, Decided to burn me to death in the name of the devil.”
Bai Zhizhi glanced at his injury. "You forgot Hobson," he sneered. "I'm not surprised they did this. Don't tell me it was the Unknown One who rescued you."
"I killed him." The apprentice confessed, "Brother Azby was able to detect something special about the scroll of oath, and I used the oath to kill him."
For five full seconds, Joey said nothing. "You have no regrets."
"I'm here for this." Uriel pressed on the parchment and slowly pulled out the dynamic golden sword composed of characters. During the whole process, he did not feel any decrease in magic power, only the demonic fire trembling with the mysterious arrival. "That's all I do to cleanse the church of impurities."
