Pillars of Ita

Chapter 884 Written at the end of the battle

The white light slowly dissipated.

Fang Plover stared at the giant crystal that split from it, and slowly put down the lion handgun in his hand.

It used to be the crystallization of magic skills. Since the time of the great alchemist Eddard, craftsmen have erected little by little on the sea of ​​​​ether. As for getting lost.It has created all kinds of miracles in the hands of generations of alchemists, but it is no match for a projectile fired from a seven-year handgun.

Just like a delicate piece of art, it shattered with a single touch.

Perhaps the Craftsmen Association should think about the security of the crystal tower, of course, they have not considered it, otherwise the tower would not have been erected in this place - El Pashin's Crown Plaza, the highest point of the city .

A strange thought flashed through Fang Yuan's mind.

The smoldering intertwined light and shadow, like a remnant body that had been blown away in half by the wind, maintained its final form in the gust of wind not far away, but no more words, only the eyes still flashing purple flames, quietly stared at him.

Then the last ray of sparks passed away, and its people turned into scattered embers and disappeared from the hall under the tower.However, Fang Plover instinctively felt that the other party was not dead, or it would be better to use the word "death". Maybe it just returned to its own world, and the last hateful gaze made people shudder.

However, Fang Qiu didn't have much trouble in his heart.

It's not so calm, it's better to say that you don't have to worry about having too much debt.

The members of the Dragon Fire Guild, the Grey Knights of the Crow Claw Temple, seemed to have recovered from the shock just now. They directly vented their strong anger on the former. These people drew their weapons, and some people raised their hands directly. The crossbow and magic gun aimed at him.

Fang Plover still had time to glance in the direction of the closed arch in the hall, and saw a few panicked Union officials from the smoke.

But he didn't plan to bother with these people. The crystal node has been broken. Presumably the city guards on the square outside will soon attack; this war is not without sacrifice, and the Crow's Claw Temple has done a lot of evil in the north. but the account will be settled with them, not with him—

After going through so many things, he has lost a lot of doubts in his heart and has his own way of looking at the world.

He was no longer the boy who only knew how to rush forward recklessly without caring.

At most, ask Sophie's father after the fact, and the people in Starlink will never turn a blind eye to the alliance's crossing the line.

Quite the opposite.

Those people were interested, just had no excuses—

Fang Plop bowed his head, and bullets and arrows flew over his head, hitting the broken rock not far away with a thumping sound.He turned around again, and the wreckage of the previous floating ship knocked out a big hole in the tower. At this moment, two Gray Knights from Crow's Claw Temple were guarding near the hole, and surrounded him from left to right.

Fang Plover directly raised his hand and launched flying claws to pass over the heads of the two of them, firmly hooking the upper edge of the breach.This unpredictable move surprised the two Grey Knights, and they only had time to look up and watch the Fang Plover fly over, dragged by the hook rope and leap over their heads.

As soon as Fang Plover landed, he rushed out of the hole without stopping. There was a ring road outside, leading to the platform above.

As early as in midair, he had carefully observed the environment here. Outside the platform was a ten-thousand-zhang cliff, and there was a thin layer of clouds and mist from the city below. From this height, the brick red and brown roofs in the city were connected together. , the road spreads in the streets like cobwebs.

He rushed to the upper platform in three steps and two steps, and came to the edge of the platform. At this moment, there was a sky blue voice in his ears, "Brother Ed, we are above your head, did you see it?"

Fang Ping glanced back, and the two gray knights had already caught up, followed by a group of people from the Dragon Fire Guild.When they saw Fang Plover standing on the outer edge of the platform, they suddenly realized something and hurriedly shouted: "Sorcerer, stop him—"

The crystals on the caster's wand behind him glowed.

But it was too late.

A triumphant smile appeared on the boy's face.

Fang Plover turned around and gave them a triumphant gesture: "There will be no future."

Then he leaned back and fell out of the platform like a free bird, and several beams of magical glow flew close to his face, and they disappeared one by one at the end of the field of vision under the gaze of Fang Plover.

He looked up again.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, the full sail of the Seven Seas Traveler is coming at full speed. It looks like a giant dragon with wings outstretched. It is passing through the clouds and leaping out. Every sail on the mast is like a giant dragon. Like silver wings, it is reflecting the afterglow on the clouds.

The whole ship was bathed in the rays of the sun, as if it were sparkling.

"Mr. Knight, I'll pick you up right away."

Miss Tata's still calm voice rang in her ears.

But with a hint of reunion after a long absence.

A trace of worry, a trace of joy.

She didn't say anything, but Fang Yu had already heard that Miss Dragon Soul didn't approve of her own adventure, but wasn't there Fang Nini? Fang Yu glanced at it subconsciously and found that the latter happened to be hiding in his own in the spiritual world.

Fang Nini, come out for me!

But the little girl shook her flaming tail and pretended not to hear.

Two dots of light flew out from the Seven Seas Traveler.

……

After a while, two 'Rangers' carrying Fang Plover landed smoothly on the deck of the Seven Seas Traveler. The casters of the Crow's Claw Temple and the Dragon Fire Guild were still going to this place. Shooting in the direction, but the Seven Seas Traveler was already out of range.

On the contrary, Miss Tata was commanding more than ten 'rangers', and was hitting those people with their light spears.

Attacks from the sky have a natural advantage over those on the ground, which is why frigates and wind aficionados are so popular in Altaria.

In the end, Fang Ling stopped his Miss Dragon Soul and said, "Okay, Miss Tata, there's no need to vent your anger for me. Those people didn't take advantage of me, and it's not worth wasting the stored magic power on them. ."

The emerald green light flashed, and the fairy lady showed her figure in front of him, raised her head to look at him, her eyes like a green dream were full of quiet expressions, and she nodded gently to him.

"Thank you, Miss Tata, I'll trouble you again this time." Fang Plop thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome, Mr. Knight, I am your dragon soul, and these are what I should do."

One question and one answer.

It was quiet and peaceful, as if it was just like the day when the two met for the first time, and it was just as insipid, and there was not much change.

Fang Plover turned around and looked at the silver minaret.

The city guards on the Crown Plaza had already invaded the hall, and it was becoming chaotic. Miss Goblin took back the 'Rangers', but those people didn't have time to pay attention to them.

He raised his head again, and as far as his eyes could reach, above the dim clouds, the sky light was reflected... There, the silver beam of light disappeared, and the channel it opened to connect the two worlds was also losing stability and becoming smaller.

In the depths of the dark and deep passage, the star with dark red light is fading little by little, it still exudes an oppressive light, like a dark red pupil, staring at the world coldly.

But the pupils are closing, the crimson light is fading, and the afterglow of the setting sun penetrates the clouds and spreads to the earth.

above the sky.

Shadowman's fleet is falling apart.

Most of them were sucked back into that channel, and the remaining bits and pieces couldn't make any more waves.

Veslan's fleet is like a silver blade in the sky, and the fleet of Stargate, the fleet of Flor's descendants is closing, and the flickering lights are the last fireworks on the battlefield, announcing the end of this war. .

Fang Plover knew that this was the end.

But the war is far from over.

Those who escaped, the port of Gula, and the place of the third crystal that sank into the sea, the aftermath of the turmoil should be felt for a long, long time.

But at least now, the North can usher in a moment of leisure to experience the precious peace.

Fang Plover's eyes were fixed on the dark port below.

This can be said to be the starting point of his journey.

But no one knew that such a day would usher in the calm north.He couldn't help thinking of Hu Di. He wondered if the other party was okay. The other party had said that he was going to travel and took Miss Spoon to witness the world.

Has he left the North, maybe he is far away from the disputes here, but it is a kind of luck for them.

Fang Plover pondered silently until someone called his name from behind:
"Brother Ed!"

Fang Yuan turned around, only to see Tian Lan and the others, including Ai Xiaoxiao who was rushing up, and Tang Xin behind her - the latter glared at him angrily.There is also Luo Yu who is holding a magic wand and nodding to him, and the timid little Jita.

People were gathering from all over the deck.

Fang Plover saw the boatswain, and Baggins grinned at him, then walked over to clean up the ropes on the deck.There was also the maid who was standing on the side of the boatswain, Wannian with a poker face - but Shesta didn't have much interest in him, and only gave him a faint look.

And at the end of everything, it was the girl who was pressing the flying strands of hair with her hands, nodding her head and smiling at him in the corner of the sea of ​​​​clouds.

Acting captain of the Seven Seas Traveler.

Miss his naval officer.

The noble daughter of the Rose Workshop.

"Welcome back," Sylvede's eyes were full of tenderness and smiles, like a hero welcoming everyone - or at this moment, this honor should belong to him, to everyone present, to everyone Stopped every participant in this war, "Our Captain."

Fang Plover couldn't bear the gaze of Miss Ship Officer.

He looked away without a trace, and at the same time swept over the crowd, only to realize that two people were missing.

"The box, where's Luo Hao?"

"They are still in the resurrection time, and the magic power stored in the icon room on the ship has been consumed by these two guys," Tian Lan said immediately dissatisfied: "Can't they be careful, obviously most of the others are fine, the magic power in the crystal Obviously it was hard to save."

Fang Ping did not expect that these two people would be blamed for this incident. It was obvious that they were the victims, but he was not Luo Yu.

On the side, Sylvede also said: "Ed, the big cat and Attila, and Miss May are on their way to join us, it's just Miss Alyssa, and what's the current situation on Parker's side? Not sure."

"Alyssa and Parker are all right," Fang Yan thought of another guest in his mind, Alesha had chatted with him a few times before, but after everyone appeared, the dragon queen disappeared, "Someone told me their condition."

"And Pasha," Baggins turned around and added: "The little guy was left at the port of Gula by us, but before the war, we let the redeemed people take him away, presumably without too much Worry. It's just that the little guy doesn't look very happy, he seems to admire you and wants to fight with everyone."

Fang Plover shook his head, thinking of the little guy he brought out of Istania.

But Pasha is not a real fighting member, and fighting with everyone is something that will come later.However, the little guy has already embarked on the path of a craftsman apprenticeship. When does Fang Ping plan to arrange him in the second team, there should be a shortage of manpower in the forest.

He couldn't help recalling his days at Dawn Star. Although there are many alchemists working behind closed doors in this world, the truly outstanding craftsmen have grown up in practice. The experience of being on their own may bring many benefits to Pasha in the future. .

Fang Plover was silent for a while.

At this time, everyone fell silent in unison.

On the deck of the Seven Seas Voyager there was only the sound of the surrounding wind.

The battlefield also became silent, a war seemed to disappear in an instant, and only those who had participated in it knew the twists and turns of the whole process.

From the battle they led the redeemed against the Temple of Crow's Claw, to the escape from the port of Gula, they led the aborigines to pull up the fleet, unite with their former opponents, pursue and fight along the way, and in the end, everything belongs to Ai Iron and fire intertwined above Erpaxin—

A shocking battle.

The entire northern region, from the Sea of ​​Clouds to the northern end of the Kaolin Kingdom, mobilized dozens of guilds in the northern region, two major alliances, thousands of people, whether the aborigines or the recruiters. are all involved.An unfamiliar enemy, the Temple of Crowpaws, the Grey Knights, and those betrayer who have strayed from the spirit of the Stargate.

Those fleets that came to this world from behind the 'gate'...

Fang Ping even had a faint hunch in his heart, maybe everything that is now is far from the end, but just the beginning.

"so……"

After a long while, Ai Xiaoxiao timidly broke the silence: "...Everyone, is the battle over?"

Among the crowd, she was the only one who was completely isolated from this battle.But as a bystander, she has experienced the whole process of this battle. In fact, up to this moment, she has not completely recovered from the thrilling experience.

The little girl's heart was pounding.

Before that, the world of the Stargate was nothing but bizarre illusions in her eyes, a curiosity and an unrealistic fantasy, but it was only now, when she opened her mouth slightly, that she had a real understanding of those who are related to the stars. For the person who signed the contract with the door—

what this world means.

Tang Xin was also silent and did not speak.

Before that, they were visitors to the Stargate, and tourists to Aytaria.

But what happens after that?

She didn't know.

Her knowledge of the world is far better than that of Ai Xiaoxiao, but her knowledge is limited to the descriptions in writing, the halos on TV, and the gossip about the top picks behind the halo.

She knew a lot, but never really understood it. Tang Xin glanced at her cousin and lowered her eyelashes slightly.

"Yeah, it's over," Baggins took Ai Xiaoxiao's words, he stared at the clouds in the distance and the afterglow on the clouds, "at least for the time being."

"For the time being?"

"Then what should we do next?" Ai Xiaoxiao asked: "The war is over, so are we considered heroes?"

She also had unrealistic expectations.

"Let's meet Mr. Reid first, and Miss Alyssa and Parker," Fang Plover replied, he had lost that expectation and had experienced too many thrilling situations, so he just wanted to take risks in a calm way : "Wait until there to consider other things."

As he asked, he looked at Sylvede beside him.

Miss Ship Officer nodded softly to him.

……

The blizzard gradually subsided.

The tall dragon beast stayed behind the slender figure, lowered its huge body, lowered its head, and looked at its master with some awe.

A pair of hands gently stroked the scales on the nose of the dragon and beast, making it snort. The woman stared at her pet for a moment, then raised her head. In the darkness, a pair of golden, cold pupils stared at the clouds.

The crimson light was dissipating, leaving behind purple clouds. After the meteor with a long trail fell, the beam of light across the sky disappeared, and the direction of El Pashin was silent.

"Alright."

The woman smiled.

"After Doliffin is gone, it's a goodbye forever, so it's better not to see each other."

"Go on your own way, after all, the road ahead is still long, but this time it is a small favor for me, I hope it will not be an enemy next time."

She walked out of the darkness, revealing the face that belonged to Ms. Misu. In her shining red-gold pupils, there was still a trace of memory.

But the memories of the past are long overdue.

The dragon beast made a low voice behind him.

"Stop complaining," Misu said, "Let's go, we still have our own business to do, to clean up those traitors, who thought that they could ignore the dragon witch's fate by taking refuge in the monsters born from the flames and shadows. Majestic?"

But a pity.

Fire of Venus, falling into dust.

Under the dragon wings, there is always death.
