Vol 3 Chapter 80: The Apostle (Part 2)

"We found ... Grandma of Holy Cross, did we actually find it ?!"
Under the snow-capped mountains covered by the night, a huge, obviously man-made chiseled entrance stands tall in the snowstorm, completely covered by the surrounding ice and mountains under the snow, even if it is nearby, it is difficult to find The exact location here.
More importantly, the rock on the side is also engraved with the Sakran cross that has been blurred, and there is a small inscription from the "Old Scripture" of the Holy Cross.
"May the glory of the Holy Cross penetrate the darkness, and redeem the sinners on the way to ..."
With a dumb expression, Muddy Isaac slowly turned back, looking at the gray pupil who was ten times worse than him, sitting on the side and gasping for breath: "What do you think this is?"
"The marks left by the first wizard." Lucien tried his best to breathe, frowning: "And ... Gusackland Cross?"
"Yeah, I'm so thankful to tell you that." Isaac with his flat mouth rolled his eyes and pointed directly behind him:
"Please, do you want me to speak more clearly? Tell me, what did you see?"
This time I rolled my eyes and replaced it with Lucien, but I gave up my hands helplessly:
"We have found the entrance to Netherhog ...
"Nid Hoog--!"
Excited Isaac raised his fists with raised hands over his head, full of mud and blood, frostbite cheeks laughing like a child: "Lost centuries, the legendary dragon king city, in the thirteenth generation of the Sacrament Empire See the sun again, and this genius Isaac Grantham is her discoverer-! "
"And ..." When I saw Lucien on the side, "I flirted" Isaac dragged a long tail: "And two of his friends who happened to be with them-from the same place The college, the less intelligent student; and some precocious overachievement, can play forty-eight of his Elleman stinking devil! "
Hearing this sentence, tired Lucien snorted slightly and slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
"Enjoy this moment, and the rest will wait for us to celebrate when we get to the door of Niederhog-I really hope that there will be two bottles of Ebden in the package of Loren, although I do n’t drink , But watching the sunset on the walls of the Dragon King City, it seems good to have another drink by the way. "
"Wine? It's impossible to stay even if you really bring it."
"Ah, that's a shame."
Some disappointed Isaac shrugged, then re-excited again and ran to the entrance happily, stroking the icy sealing stone cordially:
"Yes, that's right behind it-this must be where Logan entered Niederhogg's position, but the passage of time changed, and the stones on it fell down;
Lucien, come and see what I found, here is the broken cross-section of the stone; it looks quite new ... probably what happened in recent decades? Because the glacier changes make the upper beam lose its bearing point and the like;
Can you come here and help take this big thing away? Not humble, I think I'm really not suitable for this kind of physical work; or is it more appropriate for you to be able to fight forty-eight me, do you think Lussin stinks?
Lucien, huh? Lucien, what are you doing sitting there? "
Isaac, who had said nothing to himself for a long time, realized this. When he turned around, the gray pupil still sat in the same place. He gasped softly and looked at his feet silently, his blurred eyes also lost his original fatigue. Colors.
"Are you too tired? Uh ... it's not incomprehensible, after all, I ran so far." Frowning, Isaac, still talking to himself, sat beside him:
"Why don't we just take a break? Of course it's not about understanding you or something. I'm also tired, really; and it's just the entrance, it's no big deal and you don't have to be so excited ..."
"... I should have been used as bait."
The gray-eyed boy with a depressed expression said silently.
"Ok?"
"Fauda ... The apostle of the wreckage, it is really too powerful-if His Majesty Eckhart II could not destroy it at that time, it would be impossible for Lord Loren alone . "
"So ... he just didn't want me to die in vain, so he took the initiative to be a bait and said something‘ plan ’.
The more he said, the more depressed Lucian's expression was, and the biting lower lip was bleeding.
"Um ... I get it." Blinking, Isaac straightened and said: "You think you are too weak, so Loren is not willing to let you be a bait, lest you be caught too quickly. Let us have no time to escape? "
Lucien opened his mouth, his slightly trembling body made his voice choking a little:
"Is not it?"
"Of course, otherwise?" Isaac looked at him for granted.
The gray pupil's mouth showed a bitter but self-deprecating smile:
"Yeah, otherwise ..."
"But ... aren't we all like this?" Isaac turned around and continued: "Monsters, ghosts, apostles, avalanches, evil spirits ... not just you, in front of these terrible ghosts, we Humans are small, weak, and very worthless. "
"But it is us, the weak, worthless, incompetent creatures who have ruled most of the known world, and drove these gods and monsters into this icy snow; you Do you think we can do this because we are harder than their fists? "
Lucien froze for a moment, bowing his head thoughtfully.
"There is no doubt, of course, because we are harder than their fists, otherwise?" Isaac pouted and shrugged: "I can't think of anything other than this anyway."
A staggering, gray-eyed boy nearly fell to the ground; looking at Isaac with a broken face:
"What the do you want to say ?!"
"I want to say that 'power' is a very vague concept, and your understanding of it is too narrow." Isaac continued: "What is power? Is moving something to the other side called power?" ? "
"Do you know more knowledge, and smarter is power?"
"Can I command an army or defeat the forty-eight forces I count?"
"... this is definitely power." Lucien interjected.
"Okay, is that a fool that makes people laugh like power ?!"
"Uh ... shouldn't this be counted? Wait! Should be counted? I don't know anymore ..."
"In a word-it doesn't make much sense to calculate what you call" power "~ EbookFREE.me ~ because there is no such thing as" absolute "in this world, even" truth "is a constantly changing existence. , Nothing is set in stone. "
Isaac waved his hand: "Of course, except for the knight novel that a fool alchemist likes to read-the protagonist in it will definitely win all the duels, sleep all the gender" female "characters in the book, and then play Two beautiful but first wealthy princesses like Barbara Barbara ... Some are not, anyway, only this one is absolute. "
"..."
"So instead of groaning and complaining, let's continue to follow Loren's plan-anyway, we don't have any better plans now."
After a moment of silence, the gray pupil who looked up slowly looked at him calmly:
"... You said this was for me to help you remove the stones blocking the entrance, right?"
"What could it be?" Isaac suddenly laughed, holding his shoulders with an indifferent attitude: "Or do you still prepare to continue to complain and be motivated? It doesn't matter, as long as you don't bother me, I can continue to speak until Some precocious and old-fashioned kid is willing to start working! "
"Really ... it's all right for you!"
Luisen chuckled, and the dark silver pupils once again radiated a strange luster, looking towards the entrance as if they were reborn:
"Then let's go to see what Niederhog really looks like according to Lord Loren's plan!"
The cold wind was getting colder, and the tired two men stood in front of the entrance in full condition again.
Until ... some "strange" voice interrupted them.
"It turned out to be here, really ...
Thank you so much! "
