Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 257 Pilgrims

The door leading to the depths of the black monastery was opened, and Anderson, who was slumped in the easy chair, immediately straightened up and looked in that direction vigilantly.

Skylark didn't even have any expectations for the person who came out, because Anderson had talked too much just now.

Facts have proved that Anderson's crow's mouth was stable, and the person who came out was not Gehrman Sparrow, but a man in a linen tunic.

His face was wrinkled, his black hair was pulled back, his expression was calm and peaceful, and he walked firmly to where Anderson was, and stopped beside the easy chair.

Then he bowed deeply in the direction of the two, raised his right arm respectfully, and turned his slightly fanatical eyes to Lark: "As I promised you, I'm here to take you out of the dream world."

Esther looked at the person in front of her in confusion. Although his appearance was very similar, his temperament was different from that of the previous Leo Master who avoided hunting and killing: "Promise?"

"Yes, in order to thank you for taking me out of that dangerous ruin, I will take you out of here."

Anderson hadn't spoken since this person appeared, and looked warily at someone he had never seen before, and glanced at Skylark from time to time.

Leomaster kept holding his arm, and it seemed that he would never let it go until the lark landed.

Anderson could tell that the bird didn't know what was going on. Just as he was thinking about countermeasures, the door leading to the outside of the monastery was pushed open.

This time, it was Gehrman Sparrow who stepped into the mural hall.

The first time he saw Leo Master, Klein felt that something was wrong. This personality was not like the "Saint of Black" who was busy cutting people, but his temperament was too calm and quiet, and it didn't completely fit him. Leo Master's kind personality.

Klein still remembered the finger that Frank cut out from the belly of the fish before, and the flesh and blood automatically wrote "Help", which was Leomaster's method of trying to ask for help from the outside world.

But now, he stood here calmly and positively.

Did someone help him solve his psychological problems, or take him out of the predicament?The two personalities no longer fight or are directly fused?
Klein's thoughts changed rapidly, but he shouted, "Nons!"

Esther was no longer in a daze, and decisively flapped her wings and flew towards Klein, landing on his shoulder:
"That Mr. Leomaster said he could take me out of here, out of the dream world."

Klein immediately lowered his voice: "Don't believe this, when I saw him, he was in a state of split personality."

Leo Master walked in this direction, a trace of crimson flashed in the depths of his dark eyes: "I was trapped in a ruin at the time, and I was in a very bad state, but now I have received help, and I have finally gained my heart and soul. The peace of self."

"Who helped you?" Esther asked along with the words.

A gentle smile appeared on Leomaster's old and peaceful face: "It's you."

The moment Esther was in a daze, Klein had already given the answer she hadn't said: "Zoya?"

"Of course. Only I know how to take you out of this dream, or you want to stay here forever."

These words were almost a threat, not only Esther, but Klein was a little shaken. "Future" is still on its way back, but the skylark on board is just a false shell, a clone formed by filling light spots.

Klein doesn't know where Esther's real body was taken by "Zoya", if he misses this opportunity...

Worried that the dream might end at any time and it would be difficult to tell Esther about "Zoya", Klein said coldly: "I need to talk to her alone."

Esther nodded repeatedly.

Although his face showed dissatisfaction, Leo Master did not directly refuse after seeing Skylark's reaction: "Please don't waste too much time."

Klein walked to the other corner of the hall: "Can you control the dream and isolate the sound of our conversation?"

Esther nodded immediately, and two rings lit up from her feathers, one landed at Klein's feet, and the other landed on top of Klein's head.

Although Klein felt that Esther did it on purpose, now was not the time to complain. Seeing Leo Master standing quietly by the door and not coming over, Klein immediately took the time to communicate with the lark on his shoulder:

"Zoya has controlled your body, and the sleeping Skylark in the room is just a clone fabricated from that layer of snake skin. You are no longer on the 'Future'!"

Esther's eyes widened, and she pointed at Leo Master on the other side in a trance: "So, Zoya is controlling my body to—"

"Yes." Klein closed his eyes, and said quickly, "I don't know where your real body is now, but there is a high probability that it is with the 'Black Saint' of the Aurora Society over there. Maybe I really know a way to leave, but there is a high probability that it will lead to the 'Land Abandoned by God'!"

"You..." Esther couldn't figure out why Klein had such a guess.

Although the "sun" once encountered a strange cycle, at that time the exploration team in the City of Silver encountered a little boy from the outside world.But why did Klein know so clearly? Had "the world" ever told him so many details?
Klein gritted his teeth, knowing that he had to face the trouble of the doll in a vest for a short time: "For the Yellow and Black King who is in charge of good luck, the 'world' is not just a person, but a representative of his loved ones."

He didn't directly say "I am the favored one of the 'Fool'", that would be too shameful, so Klein just tactfully gave Esther a clear statement.

Skylark shrinks back anxiously: "You, what are you—so the 'world' is not your 'teacher'! Forget it, now is not the time to discuss this matter. In reality, the skylark has gone missing, and my body is still there. Stay somewhere in that weird sea..."

Esther's gaze gradually became firmer, and when things came to an end, she calmed down and comforted Klein: "Think about it on the bright side, since I'm still here, it means that 'Zoya' can't completely make me disappear .”

Klein doesn't know where Esther's confidence comes from: "There are too many secrets hidden in that sea area and this dreamland, even if you want to pursue the matter of 'Dariberg', staying here is definitely not a good choice .”

"I know, so I will follow Leomaster to the 'Land Forsaken'." Esther said softly.

Klein pursed his lips, expressing his objection with Gehrman-like silence.

Esther's voice on his shoulder became more and more firm: "It's okay, 'Zoya' doesn't seem like a character who would seek death."

"That's right, there may be nothing I can do to help you, if you are in danger—"

"I will remember to say that person's 'name', which is similar to calling a helpline." Esther took over the conversation and replied like this.

It was weird to say this in Loen language, "hot wire", but Klein understood.Until this time, Esther was still in the mood to joke, which really makes people admire her big heart.

Such a positive attitude will also bring a sense of stability to others and dilute the heavy atmosphere.

Klein pressed the brim of his top hat and nodded: "Be careful."

Esther laughed twice: "Haha, don't worry, I still regret my life. My spiritual intuition tells me that this matter will not be dangerous."

"Divination is not a panacea, it's a very basic rule of divination." Klein reminded in a circumstantial way.

"I remember your little summary, Mr. Seer, don't worry."

The silver ring was brought back to the top of the head by Skylark.

Esther spread her wings and flew across the hall, and Leomaster immediately raised her arms to provide Skylark with a foothold.

Esther shook her head proudly at Anderson next to her, then sat firmly on the right arm of the "Black Saint" and nodded at him.

When Leomaster stepped out of the gate, Klein followed, because Leomaster didn't say that others were not allowed to follow.

Skylark turned his head and winked at the expressionless Klein.

Anderson, who was left alone in the hall, scratched the back of his head and sat back on the chair.

He raised one leg, continued to look at the mural above his head, and drew two lines with his fingers:
"There are some secrets, it's better not to explore them, otherwise it might make people more unlucky..."

-

After Leomaster walked out of the dark hall, his steps quickened, but he didn't deliberately shake off the people who were a few steps behind him, as if he was just anxious.

However, his arm holding the skylark is quite stable, and there is hardly any shaking even when walking.

Esther was not as calm as she appeared on the surface. Even if she joked with Klein, it was mostly out of appeasing Klein, and she herself was uneasy.

Klein followed Leo Master all the way to the area where the "Admiral of the Stars" was located.

This is the first time Esther has completely left the gate of the monastery. As Leomaster stood on the boulder, she saw the scene on the other side of the cliff:
On the opposite side of the gully filled with endless clouds and mist, is a very high mountain.

It is surrounded by countless palaces and towers, towering like giant columns, and surrounded by walls like a crown.All the buildings do not fit the size of the human body, and even from a long distance, it will make people think of the "Giant Kingdom".

At dusk, the outline of the city is embraced, and the magnificent buildings seem to be drowsy beasts in ancient times, and their lives will also decline.

Skylark let out a meaningless chirp.

"That's our direction." Leo Master explained.

Esther had to take a few deep breaths to calm down the growing restlessness in her heart: "How do we get there?"

"Pray," Leomaster held up Lark respectfully, "please also help me."

More and more rings fell off from the top of Lark's head, and scattered round and round at the feet and sides of Leomaster. They were connected to each other but rotated independently, and the light gradually connected.

Leomaster looked at the opposite mountain:

"O Creator of all;

"You are the all-knowing and all-powerful;
"You are the source of all greatness, you are the beginning and the end;

"You are the god of the gods, you are the ruler of the vast star world!"

The sea of ​​clouds separating the two peaks vibrated violently, just as the mural showed.

The sea is separated, leaving only a gap to welcome the pilgrims to the other shore.

The light around Skylark gradually spread, and under the soft circular ripples, Leo Master's figure also became blurred.

After the sea of ​​clouds split to form a road, the scene of the city on the opposite side changed. The dusk hanging in the sky was suddenly sucked and pulled, rushing towards this deep gap, quickly filling it up.

The orange light path gradually took shape, and Leo Master jumped down without hesitation.

Skylark glanced back at Klein, flapped its wings and crossed the cliff, and flew towards the foothold of the "Saint of Black".

Klein didn't follow, because the dream he saw didn't change in any way. Although the sea of ​​clouds parted, there was only an abyss below.

The dim long bridge that Esther saw did not exist in his eyes, he could only see that group of soft light moving farther away, becoming more and more hazy.

Klein couldn't watch until the end, because the night of the real world was finally over, and everyone in the "Future" left here.

wake up.
