Chapter 425 Ornstein's Relics
Fingerly finally understood the princess' temper.
This guy really likes Ornstein and all the characters that are related to him and radiate outward from Ornstein.
For example, the Nameless King and Smoo.
But it seems that she didn't show any significant expression towards Gwyndolin.
And Selene's "like" made it difficult for him to define it directly.
It is not quite accurate to say that she is a pure beauty-obsessed person, because her love is deeper and more persistent than a pure beauty-obsessed person. She is willing to enter the painting world and die several times, or climb the dangerous Ancient Dragon Peak, just to see her idol.
But it's not quite right to say that she is that kind of fanatical fan. Sometimes she will go crazy and it's hard to understand. Her degree of outrageousness is comparable to that of the extreme Dark Moon Sword.
But she controls this crazy emotion very well, and she can control it freely and when it is necessary. Compared with people who like to put themselves into other people's emotions, she is more like an audience-like role.
Fingerly suddenly wanted to see how the other party would react when he saw the end of his idol.
Although the real Ornstein is very likely dead, if the scene of his death were to reappear, Selene would definitely have emotions!
If Sean gave Ornstein another branch ending like the Warrior Pot that could change according to the adventurer's choice, the princess would be emotionally shocked.
These are Fingerley's thoughts.
The princess had always acted quite calm and composed, so he wanted to see the princess's expression when she was at her lowest point. He thought that expression would be very delicious.
Selene shuddered suddenly and felt uncomfortable all over, as if an evil spirit was thinking about her.
Hasavi's team set out again. The bonfire where they were resurrected was the place where they were teleported to after killing the ancient dragon. In the room on the second floor next to it was the snakeman summoner who could summon dragonblood knights and Havel warriors.
From here, there were several diverging paths to take, more than half of which they had yet to explore.
Currently, we only know that one main road leads to the snake-man army and the bell of the nameless king, and another upward branch road leads to the dragon corpse and Havel warriors, and there is also Hawkwood's summoning symbol.
By the way, why does the Sion Dungeon place the summoning talisman in such a remote corner? Is it purely to make the adventurers who want to summon helpers run a longer distance and suffer more?
This time they did not choose to run a little further to summon Hawkwood.
"You actually left us and ran away alone, damn it!"
"Do you think Hawkwood's behavior of leaving is a bit like someone?"
"Ah, now that you mention it, it does look like it."
Selene didn't quite understand what these people were talking about. Who was that someone referring to?
Fingerly scratched his hair twice, as if to indicate that he was bald.
Now the princess understood.
It turned out to be Patch. Why didn't you just tell me earlier? Why did you have to keep playing Riddler?
Somehow, the topic suddenly changed from denouncing Hawkwood to Patch, and rumors of various adventurers being tricked by Patch began to spread, and the air was filled with a happy atmosphere for a while.
Even when they were fighting the snakemen and stone worms that blocked their way, the topic of Patch never stopped.
Sometimes, in addition to the hatred for Patch, everyone is looking forward to what else this guy can do, and how tolerant the ancient people were to allow him to live and continue to do things.
After deliberately quickening their pace, everyone soon arrived at the location of the big clock.
The clouds and mist were surging. Ever since the big bell was rung, the clouds and mist on the top of the ancient dragon had been gathering towards this side and have not dissipated until now.
If you look from the campfire, you won't feel anything, the weather is normal, but if you get closer, you can see the storm and thunder, as if something has changed with the ringing of the bell.
"What are you looking at?" Matilda suddenly found that her captain was looking at the other side, which was the altar where Hawkwood said to obtain the Shining Dragon Stone.
"Look, we are now at the big bell. The terrain here is much higher than that at the altar, right?" Fingri analyzed. "There is only one way up. If we can block the way up, can we use the terrain to attack the snake people guarding the altar? As the saying goes, those who are high will hit those who are low will hit those who are stupid, right?"
“That makes sense.”
Matilda nodded, then shook her head and said, "But it's too late. The dungeon will be closed soon. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Well, there's no rush for this."
He turned and looked at Selene, who should be running over to ring the bell at this moment.
Then, he saw Selene running on the clouds to the other side of the battlefield, and the big bell stopped there steadily without even ringing.
"Huh?"
Fingri was stunned for a moment, but did not ring the bell. The fog was still there? And could we still enter the venue?
"What are you doing?" he shouted, "Run slower, in case there is danger!"
He followed while shouting, his feet stepping on the clouds thousands of miles high in the sky, which felt very unreal.
"Aren't you curious about what's on the other side of the clouds?"
Selene's voice sounded extremely lively, with a vitality that could never be heard in the palace, as if the adventurer was simply satisfying her curiosity.
She was jumping on the clouds, as if she had just been freed from the Five Elements Mountain, and her laughter like silver bells could be faintly heard.
The Nameless King has some principles. He will not appear unless the bell is rung. Moreover, even the battle field is open to everyone without any fog gate blocking the way.
"Isn't he afraid that we might set some traps here in advance?"
Fingerly complained, and at this moment, he saw that a building had actually appeared on the other side of the foggy site, like a broken bridge that was connected by the clouds.
There are several dragon men meditating on the broken bridge. They look different from the little dragon men on the roadside. They are a little bigger in size, their skin is closer to the texture of rock, and even their heads are more hideous.
Is this a more advanced existence among the dragon people, transformed using the Glorious Dragon Stone?
Fingri couldn't help but take a few more glances. If it turned out like this, he could probably accept it. At least it looked better than an ordinary little dragon, just a little bit.
In addition to the dragon man, there was a lot of rubble scattered on the ground. Upon closer inspection, some weathered armor was mixed in with the rubble.
After a long period of erosion, no patterns can be seen on the surface of the armor, only its rough appearance remains.
The model of the armor is much larger than that of a normal human, like something a giant would wear.
But why did he feel that these looked a little familiar?
Not far away, he saw Selene standing there and said:
"Why are you running so fast? Did you sense Ornstein with your sixth sense again?"
He said this in a teasing tone, and if nothing unexpected happened, Selene would retort.
However, this time, the princess did not respond, but fell into silence, which was completely different from her previous vitality.
He noticed something unusual and walked over to ask.
Selene was holding a pair of gauntlets at the moment, staring at them over and over again with a frown on her face, letting out a gasp.
"What's wrong?" Fingerly asked.
She shook her head and gently put down the armor whose appearance could no longer be seen clearly. A conflicted and puzzled expression appeared on her face, and she hit herself on the head twice.
It looks like performance art.
"Can you help me find these armors and collect all of them?"
"No problem, no problem," Fingri nodded, "but is it okay to waste time here? Don't you want to see the Nameless King again?"
"No, the matter of this armor is the most important thing now!" she said firmly.
What happened again?
Fingri didn't understand what the princess was thinking, so he said hello to his friends and began to search through the rubble for more armor.
The armors all have a tendency to assimilate with the rocks on the top of the ancient dragon, and many of them have shattered over time, making them quite difficult to find.
Selene was also looking, and she was looking very seriously, her eyes were different from usual.
Her appearance made Fingri think. There were not many things that could make Selene show such an expression. He immediately thought of Ornstein.
Once you connect these weathered armors with Ornstein, they look more and more alike, even the size seems to match.
The corners of his mouth trembled, and he thought: No way, could it be that I really got it right? Can I really see the end of the Lion Knight here?
Maybe it's not Ornstein's armor. There are so many similar things. Maybe.
"Can you help me take down that spear?" Selene's voice came again. He turned around and saw Matilda pulling out a spear that was stuck in the wall.
Perhaps the weapon could no longer withstand the passage of time and it broke, but its shape remained the same.
Fingri's eyes suddenly changed, because he recognized that this spear was the weapon used by Ornstein!
Then the owner of these scattered armors is——
All speculation came to an end when Alayya found a lion-shaped helmet from the rubble.
This is Ornstein's armor!
After a while, everyone collected the scattered armor and placed them together, looking at the armor and the atmosphere fell into silence.
Selene squatted in front of the armor with her back to the crowd. People didn't know what her expression was or what she was thinking.
The atmosphere was becoming somewhat troublesome. Fingerly could not help but feel a headache.
Although he wanted to see Selene crying when he was joking, he didn't expect the joke to come true.
He still wants to see other people smile more
Alayya suddenly pushed Fingerly, who sighed, walked forward and whispered:
"Well, how should I put it? Although the armor is here, it doesn't necessarily mean that Ornstein died here, right? You don't have to be too sad."
"Besides, you see, Ornstein and the eldest son of the sun are comrades who hunt dragons together. When comrades meet, they will definitely be in harmony—"
Wait, I found a blind spot!
Before he uttered the word "peace", Fingerly suddenly realized something.
Ornstein and the Eldest Son of the Sun were comrades in the fight to hunt dragons, but the latter suddenly ended up living with dragons and was exiled. So what was the former doing in Ancient Dragon Peak?
If it's more extreme, wouldn't the two of them start fighting?
Then Ornstein died at the hands of the Sun's Eldest Son! ?
Thinking of this, he didn't know how to comfort Selina. For the first time, he felt that his words were useless.
What should I do if she starts crying like a tearful pear blossom?
Just then, Selene finally spoke.
"hey-hey."
"?"
Everyone in the Hassawi team asked a question.
The sound they just heard was "Hey hey", right?
It’s not the “woooo” that represents sadness, but the “hehe” that represents joy and even a little bit of cheesiness?
The princess is not crazy!
Fingerly stretched his neck to look over there with a strange look in his eyes, and then his expression became very interesting.
Selene held the lion helmet, an indescribable smile on her face, and said to herself:
"I got Ornstein original again."
Are you awake!?
