Chapter 124 dust returns to dust earth returns to earth

The bottom of the canyon, which is not exposed to sunlight all year round, is often the accumulation of negative energy place.

Coupled with the fact that there has been a massacre here before, even if there are undead creatures jumping out now, the last dragonborn will not be surprised.

Continuing to move forward for a while, keenly noticed that there are some obviously brand-new traces on the canyon rock walls on both sides.

There are cracks left by the explosion of magic, potholes that seem to be smashed by a huge force, and deep and slender sword marks.

It has been mentioned in the intel that not all members of the heavy sword mercenary group died of poisoning in their sleep.

These traces on the valley walls are probably left by the mercenaries who were not completely poisoned when they were desperately resisting.

After a brief inspection of these traces, the last Dragonborn became more careful when he was refreshed.

Continuing to explore, when the elf bypassed a pile of rocks that fell from the mountain, what he was looking for finally appeared in front of his eyes.

The broken camp, the burned out bonfire, the scattered carriages, the dead pack beasts…

And the bones everywhere—

At the same time, There are a lot of devil beast traces in the environment.

During this period of time, there seem to be quite a few daring devil beasts who used this place as a free canteen from heaven.

Seeing this scene, the last dragonborn stopped vigilantly and held the Noy’s Moon Staff behind him.

At the same time, the spell book tied to the elf’s waist floated up by itself, floating on the elf’s side, ready to release the spell at any time.

Be careful to be alert for possible sneak attack all around, but there is no movement around for the time being.

The elf raised his staff cautiously, selected skills with his mind, and the system automatically chanted incantation for him.

“[Detecting Necromancers]—”

The invisible ripples spread out from the head of the staff in a spherical shape, sweeping across the canyon nearly 100 meters in front of the elves, sweeping the entire camp. shrouded in.

But in the elf’s eyes, no bones were highlighted.

Haven’t had time to convert yet?

Or for some other reason?

In any case, no undead creatures are born, which makes the last dragonborn slightly relaxed.

Carefully walk near the skeleton, and the task information on the panel refreshes without any accident.

[system hint: ‘dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth’ task is completed, you will get 100000 EXP]

Compared with other task rewards in the task chain, the last link The rewards are almost the same.

However, the purpose of the elves coming here was not originally for this reward.

Due to the constraints of his previous professional player status, few people know that he is actually always a plot party.

Wandering through the desolate and dilapidated camp, the elves cast a mage hand, carefully flipping through the many corpses on the ground.

Because the incident happened in the middle of the night and the lights were dark, the attackers left in a hurry.

Most of the belongings on these corpses are still intact, which makes the elves’ search skills experience a lot better.

Out of habit, elves take everything of value.

Although at this point in time the file is about to be deleted, it doesn’t sound like much.

.

….….

Eventually, on the chest of one of the dead, the last Dragonborn found a familiar black iron necklace.

The deceased was huddled together, as if he had experienced severe pain before his death, and there was an obvious trace of being dragged by the wild beast.

But in contrast, his hand was still tightly gripping the pendant on his chest. Even if the corpse has been devoured by a small part, it still does not relax.

The elf crouched down, pried his fingers apart with the one-handed sword, and picked out a slightly deformed heart-shaped pendant.

In the pendant is another photo of a familiar ghost.

The young brown-haired mercenary in shiny armor gently hugged the girl in the blond and white dress with a slightly shy smile.

After a little look, the last dragonborn left the pendant in the hands of the dead. Then he took out the blood-stained letters and another string of the same black iron necklace, and placed them gently on the chest of the deceased.

Finally, he glanced at the golden haired girl in the necklace, who was smiling brightly. The elf was silent for a while, then spoke softly.

“At this point, the commission is completed—”

Slowly stood up, the last Dragonborn waved the strange staff in his hand.

The earth parted in front of him, and buried the body with the two necklaces on it, leaving only a small tomb bag.

dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth, soul with soul-

What the elf didn’t notice was that when his tone barely fell, a very faint light, It flashed across the surface of the black iron pendant on the corpse.

.

….….

Mercenaries who die on the battlefield do not need tombstones.

No one knows what their names were, what experiences they had, and no one would be interested in them.

After disposing of his client’s necklace, the last dragonborn took a step back and glanced at the canyon where the heavy sword mercenary group was buried.

As a mercenary who came here for ‘hire’, the elves felt that they should do something for them.

According to the unwritten custom among mercenaries, he picked up several pieces of gray-white conglomerate on the spot. On the side of the wreckage of the camp, stacked in order from large to small, a low stone tower is formed.

Then, he picked up the broken flag of the heavy sword mercenary group and pressed it under the top stone.

This is the Spiritual God of common belief among mercenaries, the symbol of the Northern God of Wind Karaste, representing the ladder of the soul.

The living mercenaries hope that the souls of the dead can return to the Spiritual God’s Everlasting Country through this stone tower and get the ultimate comfort and sleep.

After thinking for a while, the last Dragonborn returned to the forest lawn, collected a bunch of strange white wildflowers, and placed them in front of the stone tower.

Afterwards, he stood facing the stone tower, clenched his right hand, tapped three times on his chest armor, and performed a common etiquette among mercenaries.

The mountain wind whistled, and the damaged and dilapidated flags fluttered in the wind, as if telling the past.

Staring at the flying scarlet flag, the last Dragonborn’s expression was slightly ecstatic.

Every story will eventually come to an end…?

.

….….

“It’s unbelievable that this world…is just a game.”

came back to his senses, the elf smiled relieved, then turned and left without a trace of nostalgia.

Floating in front of him, on that crystal-clear panel, the rest of the in-game testing time has begun to count down.

“Goodbye…no! See you in seven days, Unival—”

In the distance, a white light seemed to shine.

The tiny back faded away in the light, leaving only a faintly discernable whisper drifting in the wind.

“Perhaps, we can try to build an NPC protection association…”

Then, the rays of light faded, and the remnants of the sound subsided.

Beside the simple stone pile, there are only a few white wild flowers left, swaying gently in the wind——

gu gu——

There are always people complaining recently Goo’s book title, what’s wrong with Goo’s book title?
