Shadow Covenant

Chapter 219 Chapter 218 "The End"

Cecil turned a deaf ear to the shock and incomprehension on Cohen's face, and now her eyes are more focused on "Koen," who belongs to the spirit of nature.

"How, how do you feel?"

No one could have guessed that Cecil's hole card was the spirit of nature that was originally imprisoned and controlled. Woody looked a little calm. He knew that Cecil would not shoot the target for no reason. Not much, often the most surprising answer is that the final result is a matter of course.

"It's okay. After all, human beings still don't know that their own choices are the beginning of mistakes."

Cohen, the Spirit of Nature, looked at Viscount Cohen, who had distorted his face and looked like a lunatic, with no pity on his expression, and his tone was flat.

"I originally wanted to listen to his advice and let you go, but your performance in the end was really bad. I believe the master will not be satisfied with the results of her hard work being ruined by you."

Without waiting for Cohen to yell wildly, he raised his right hand with the iron glove slightly.

- Whoosh!

The next moment, dozens of feathered arrows shot into the body of Cohen, who was opening his mouth to speak, under the seat.

The guards here have all been replaced by his cronies who believed in him, not the rightful lord. During the years when they ruled River Valley City at the same time, they already had factions belonging to both sides.

At this time, Kaverman put his hands behind his back and sighed. He was the last to realize that he didn't realize that all this was just a drama stage specially set up for this descendant of Kamutra. In the end, the lord who used to be a viscount became a clown.

"Greed, desire, and the expansion of power all lead to nothingness in the end."

After he finished speaking with his head up, watching the corpse being quietly carried away, he and Woody followed Cecil and the spirit of nature to the living room behind the hall, which was obviously much smaller than the front , except for a few randomly placed sofas, there is only one fireplace that is burning for warmth.

Although the appearance of the Spirit of Nature at this time is still the appearance of Cohen, it does not prevent Woody from seeing fatigue from his eyebrows and eyes. It is this feeling, as well as the dead Viscount Cohen, that makes Woody instantly understand one thing. However, before he could completely filter it out, the spirit of nature in front of him spoke up.

"How is Tesia? Didn't she come with you?"

Sitting down, he first glanced at Cecil, then at Woody, and Kaverman. He didn't warmly draw closer. As the spirit of nature, he didn't have too much bias in his emotions. The only thing he relies on is the master who created him, Aisha Kamutla, so when he mentioned Tesia, his tone was extraordinarily calm, like asking a stranger.

But it didn't prevent Woody from extracting new information, that is, the spirit of nature in front of him, maybe the real person Tesia said wanted to help her.

However, this is self-contradictory with what Cohen said earlier. It is impossible to catch one and let the other go. There must be a reason.

However, the spirit of nature seemed to see Woody's doubts, and took the initiative to explain.

"Actually, I am one with him. His thoughts and mine are both going on at the same time. You can see them as two personalities taking turns to rest. I am him, and he is me."

Cecil added.

"The spirits of nature, like your agate horse, want to survive in this material plane. They don't rely on ordinary food like humans, but can only rely on the spiritual energy of the host, so at the beginning I heard him If it is, I know he is lying, and from his attitude towards Tesia, I also know that Grandpa Shaai will definitely not be him."

"You were not in the carriage at the time, and Tesia didn't want to say it later, it's normal that you didn't realize it."

When Cecil said this, Woody suddenly realized.

"It turns out that it is essentially one body. It can be regarded as another personality awakened during sleep. No wonder you let him go!"

Having said that, there are still a lot of confusions in Woody's heart, but there are some past life puzzles that have troubled him for a long time, and this is how they solved the task so easily. Be careful, the challenge level of their journey is not high, the only danger is the extremely dangerous elf in the Great Rift and the spawned sprawling monsters.

Basically, you don't need to venture to the Lost Temple to solve the things here.

"Yes, what I gave him is this method that can strip the spirit of nature that exists in his body."

Cecil smiled slightly. She didn't have anything to hide. She just wanted to wait until all the dust settled before explaining it. If she said it too clearly, she would lack mystery. She still enjoyed the amazed eyes of others. Magic, if the principle is clarified, it is essentially no different from fighting in other professions, except that combat skills need to do everything possible to repeat a set of actions, while magic is to build a repetitive model. , even a layman can easily cast spells.

"Then the curse in his mouth, and the fog surrounding the entire Golden River Valley, are also..."

Woody asked the question, and sure enough.

The answer given by the spirit of nature successfully solved all the confusion in his heart, it can be said to be very clear.

"The curse does exist."

He set the tone first, showing a nostalgic look on his face.

"However, it was contained by my master decades ago, and the current curse is all spread by him."

The master refers to Aisha, and he is naturally the dead Cohen.

"The fog is completely manipulated by him. Originally, he just wanted to take this opportunity to force Tecia to leave the Golden River Valley. He wanted to find a way to get rid of me and this city, but later, he heard from Cecil When it's time to help you peel yourself off, he has no intention of letting you go."

The Spirit of Nature patiently explained that since he is one, he knows all the things and thoughts that Cohen experienced, so what he said was extremely clear, like an independent personality with all the memories of Cohen.

As soon as this remark came out, not to mention Woody, even Cecil, who had been around all the time, was a little surprised, and she asked repeatedly.

"Is what you just said true?"

"As you think, it's true, Ms. Cecil." The spirit of nature seemed to say an insignificant thing.

"Then why didn't you say it earlier, I would have killed him earlier!" Cecil gritted her teeth, she wanted to whip Cohen's body with necromancy, even if it was death, she still lied to her once , if it weren't for the spirit of nature, I'm afraid she would still be kept in the dark.

"We are also meeting for the first time, don't get excited, ma'am."

The Spirit of Nature didn't notice Cecil's anxiety at all. He couldn't understand their anxiety of being trapped. After all, it was only a few days. Cecil naturally didn't care about it, she said bluntly.

"So can you close it now? I'm in a hurry now."

"I'm sorry, ma'am, it can't be closed. I have to go to a place before I can close it."

"Singing Song Forest?" Cecil immediately thought of a place name, and the answer from the Spirit of Nature was also expected.

"Yes, the fog started to diffuse from there, and he also activated the fog that blocked the entire Golden River Valley."

The Spirit of Nature nodded noncommittally, and then said to a map of the Golden River Valley hanging on the upper right corner of the fireplace.

"He has been entering that mysterious space in this place before. I know how to get in and how to close it. Don't worry."

After hearing the answer from the Spirit of Nature, Cecil naturally didn't mind, and said with a smile.

"Then let's go together, we just happen to be there too."

Now it was the turn of the spirit of nature to be strange.

"You also know... By the way, you knew from the very beginning that the mist emanates from the Jingsong Forest?"

He frowned slightly. Although Cohen's memory told him that the humans in front of him had asked many times about the story of Jingsong Forest, Woody did not emphasize that going there was to lift the curse.

"Did you listen to the local people's discussion?"

"No."

Woody stood up, shook his head and said.

"I heard an ancient prophecy, so I guess the root of everything comes from the forest in the Golden River Valley. I don't know where the entrance is, but it definitely exists."

Listening to Woody's explanation, even if the spirit of nature had doubts, it could only be attributed to the magic of prophecy. However, he did not question Woody's answer, but nodded solemnly in affirmation.

"That's right, the root of everything comes from that forest, Jingsong Forest, which was once called the Forest of Curses in the mouths of the former residents."

"Aisha has said many times that it is a cursed and rotten place, and it has to be sealed off, but that bastard is disobedient every time, thinking that the crops produced there take up most of the income of the territory, so he is reluctant to give it up until the final catastrophe If it is done, it will be too late, and Aisha will have to give up her life."

When it comes to his master, the spirit of nature is obviously more emotional than before, and his words are full of accusations against Cohen.

It was only halfway through that he said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, gentlemen, it has affected you."

Lying on the soft sofa, Cecil was also a little dizzy from the amount of information for a while, but she only knew one thing, that is, she could leave the Golden River Valley after arriving at Jingsong Forest, so she did not hesitate Said to Woody.

"Let's go now!"

"There's no point in staying here!"

Woody just wanted to say that he had agreed to Doni's shopping yesterday, but when he saw the same sprouting thoughts of the other two, he also looked at the longing in his eyes in the mirror by the door.

So finally...

At this time, Donnie, who was sitting in the carriage and playing with her tail, yawned. She had no desire to get out of the carriage at all, especially when she heard the screams of that particularly disgusting person. She remembered that it was the People wanted to murder her little Tesia and take her from him.

hateful!

Just when Donnie was cursing and preparing to pass the boring time, waiting for Woody to come back and go shopping for the local white crystal specialty, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Sure enough, in less than 5 minutes, Cecil, Woody, Kaverman, and the dead old man she hated the most returned to the carriage together.

Before he even had time to explain, the carriage, under the control of the magic servant, galloped recklessly on the blue-gray stone road that had been built, all the way towards the city gate.

On the way, Donnie learned from Woody that the plan for this operation was aborted, but when she got the promised gift and compensation when she left, she said that it was okay, and after that, with her own Be reasonable and ask for more subsidies.

The greed of the dragon was fully displayed at this time, but Woody only found it funny, and he was not too speechless.

The journey on the road was very fast. With a luxurious carriage and a spirit of nature, he knew everything about Cohen's memory. He was already very familiar with the road from River Valley City to Jingsong Forest, and he remembered every pit on the road clearly.

However, when leaving the flat area of ​​the river valley and going to the upward foothills, the speed is obviously much slower. According to what the Spirit of Nature said, it is estimated that it will take half a day to reach the designated place in Jingsong Forest, but fortunately there are In the magic carriage, they didn't seem so exhausted walking along the way, and they didn't have the fatigue and hardship that travelers should have at all.

Instead, he ate the breakfast in the car that he hadn't eaten in River Valley City.

They were all conjured up by spells, a table of gourmet food, roasted lamb, fried pork chops, clam soup, carrot stewed bacon and so on.

About half an hour later, Woody finally saw a smear of green from the long foothills, which meant that he was about to enter the Jingsong Forest, but at this time the sun was still in the eastern sky.

The spirit of nature took the initiative to speak.

"hold on."

"When the sun shines into the entire Jingsong Forest, the probability of weird events happening here will be much lower."

"About what time?"

"Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Cohen used to enter at this time."

With the explanation from the spirit of nature, Woody, Cecil and others naturally had no objections, and they stopped directly before the carriage reached the forest, and camped on a leeward hillside.

Woody, Cecil, and Kaverman all got out of the car to move their hands and feet, and stayed in the carriage for the past few days, except for the short cruise in River Valley City just now.

Therefore, it is still beneficial for recovery when a battle is likely to be faced.

What's more, taking advantage of this time, Woody also intends to re-deal with the things that have been dragging on for a long time. He took out the soul spar and the natural shrine placed in the dimension ring, and many other things he got from Cecil Material.

Then I found a very flat open space, took a silver dagger directly, and began to outline on the ground.

Silver Dust...Crushed Gems...Gold...

Soon, a small soul guiding ceremony took shape.
