Gold is Justice

The mountain range began to quickly occupy everyone's field of vision, and it began to become incomparably huge!

And the road that originally looked very steep seemed to become more winding at this moment.

After driving along the mountain road for a while, the road up the mountain was obviously no longer suitable for elemental vehicles.In desperation, Ariel could only lead the other guild members to get off the car and continue climbing up the mountain along the route that had turned into a narrow path.

"Sister President... that brave man... is he really... the Demon King?"

While walking, Ke Ke behind her obviously became a little nervous.

She was holding her wand, and the cloak was already tightly wrapped around her.

Ariel remained silent and continued to walk up.Margo who was next to her answered her very readily: "He may not be now, but who knows? This guy appeared inexplicably before, and then left inexplicably. Now, he came to us alone without notifying us. Coming to the Long Sleeping Mountain Range, this is not normal anyway."

Cream pulled out a dagger from his waist. After looking at it, he put the dagger back into its sheath and said, "Demon King...it's really unimaginable that the legends are true? I still can't believe it. Imagine this kind of thing. It takes time for Jelly to gather a large army..."

Brad was carrying his heavy sword and wearing heavy armor, and asked, "Is there any problem?"

Cream chuckled wryly, and said, "This means that in most cases, only our guild is facing the existence of the devil. Sigh... just thinking about it, I think this is quite exciting."

While talking, the guild members of the second car also arrived now.

Now, all the guild members of Song of the Mermaid, except Cheese the Gunner, Mochi the Archer, and Jelly the Electromage, have all arrived.

After Ariel turned her head and glanced at everyone, she still didn't say anything.After she just nodded slightly, she turned around again and headed towards the mountain.

The mountain road is becoming more and more difficult to climb.

The road that was originally opened up for the purpose of going up the mountain to see it now seems to have collapsed and disappeared.

There are some roads that she can't even continue to walk up. She can only rely on Brad's shoulders, and he helps to carry them up the mountain.

The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the darker the cloud above your head becomes.From the original faint mist, it condensed into a mass of dark clouds.

Looking at the dark clouds, Ariel only felt that her breathing seemed to be becoming difficult.

That is at this time...

thump—

Ariel froze for a moment, and suddenly clutched her chest.

thump-thump-

She turned her head quickly to see the faces of other guild members.However, they found that everyone's footsteps stopped at this time, and the expressions of each of them also turned into a look of surprise and vigilance.

thump -- thump -- thump --

With a strong and regular pulse, it seems that there is a heart beating slowly and powerfully in the whole mountain.Some gravel on the mountain will roll down with this pulse again and again.Although this does not pose any threat, if the beating of a heart can shake the entire mountain range... then what kind of power does the owner of this heart possess?

"Let's... hurry up."

Yi Ge's complexion is obviously a little bad.He couldn't even hold the lute in his hand, but tremblingly said——

"I can't imagine... that demon king really broke through the seal... I can't forget that nightmare after 300 years... It's still as clear as yesterday..."

It was rare for everyone to hear Yi Ge making such a worried and terrified voice. Regarding this elf who had personally experienced the war of sealing demons, everyone did not dare to be careless, and they all drew out their weapons and held them in their hands.The pace under his feet also became a little faster, and he continued to climb up the mountain.

Finally, less than ten meters away from the top of the mountain, Cream found a footprint on the hillside in front of him.And continue to climb up the mountain along the footprints, and finally, at the moment when everyone reached the top of the mountain one after another...



Chapter 520 No trust, no communication

Rumble rumble———

In the dark clouds above the head, a little black electric light began to diffuse.

It was like screaming, like struggling, desperately trying to break free from the cage that had imprisoned him for thousands of years.

And under the dark cloud of black thunder, spreading along the top of the mountain, there are still rows of giant walls of thorns, which are more than ten meters high.Those strong vines and plants entangled with each other, blocking any light behind, preventing anyone from prying into what existed behind the plants.

However, this huge wall of thorns can only become a magnificent background at this point in time.

Because in front of this huge wall, there is a person standing firmly.

A man that nearly all members of Mermaid Song have seen in person.

This person was wearing a turban on his head, a ruby ​​necklace around his neck, a turquoise top with a pair of light brown wear-resistant trousers, and a pair of dirty but dirty looking trousers on his feet. Boots that don't appear to be worn in the slightest.The overall look seems to be nothing special, but some parts of the clothes give Ariel a dragon scale-like luster.

On his back was an exquisite bow and arrow shaped like an elegant dancing girl, and on his waist was a quiver bag containing about thirty arrows.

There are daggers, short swords, folding long sticks, five throwing knives, hook locks, and a bag that looks small but feels bottomless inside. Prop bag.

A small round shield was strapped to the man's left hand.The round shield doesn't look big, but the center of the shield gives people a faint feeling of transparency. The shield alone seems to give people a feeling of mysterious power.

And the most important thing is this person's right hand...

In the right hand, holds a sword.

A sword hilt is carved into the shape of wings, and there is a thin golden line in the middle of the sword body. Just looking at it from a distance, it seems to be a one-handed long sword that can bring a strong sense of oppression!

When everyone reached the top of the mountain, the brave man's eyes slowly turned and fell on Ariel, who was the first to bear the brunt.It's just that at this moment, what Ariel saw was no longer the previous Link who seemed indifferent to everything, but a powerful brave man exuding an aura that ordinary people couldn't get close to at all!

At this time, Ariel noticed that there was an opening in the huge wall of thorns behind the brave man. This opening was just big enough to accommodate a person. Completely occupied by thorns.

"call……"

Ariel tried her best to calm down her heart, not to beat along with the beating of the mountain's heart.

She took a deep breath, then raised her head, squeezed out a smile as much as possible, looked at the man called the brave man in front of her, and said with a smile——

"Mr. Link, it's been a long time since I've seen you? Why don't you come to see me when you come back to Pelican City? Why don't we go to the city now, I'll make you a cup of tea, and then we'll have a good chat, how about catch up ? We plan to hold another element car competition this year, and I hope you, the former champion, can give us some advice!"

While speaking, Ariel took a step forward, trying to take a step closer to this brave man.

But just as she took a step, Link over there suddenly pointed the sword in his hand to this side!

"careful!"

In an instant, Napa in Ariel's arms rushed out and stood in front of Ariel!At that moment, Ariel felt her eyes suddenly brighten up!Afterwards, Napa in mid-air seemed to be hit hard by something, and fell from the mid-air weakly, and fell heavily on the ground.

"Nappa!"

Seeing that the vice president was injured suddenly, Ariel hurried up to pick him up from the ground.The guild members next to him also immediately put on a fighting posture.Except for Bass who jumped into the distance with his arms folded to express his non-intervention, Suta and Brad immediately raised their shields to block Ariel, and everyone else also raised their weapons.

Link looked at Ariel behind through the two shields, looked at the anxious expression on her face, and said lightly——

"You guys finally showed your fox tails, are you trying to stop me? Demon King Army."

"what?"

Margo immediately responded—

"Who do you say is the Demon King Army?!"

Link's sword was still pointing at Song of the Mermaid, and he said slowly: "Don't pretend to be me anymore, you are stationed here, aren't you just guarding the sealed place of the devil as the devil's army, so as to buy time for the devil's resurrection ?"

Ariel stroked Napa's fur lightly. Now Napa seemed to be very weak. She was curled up in Ariel's arms, trembling all over, without the usual arrogance at all.

Seeing that this mighty monster was seriously injured by this brave man with a single point of his sword, Ariel gritted her teeth forcefully, suppressing the anger in her heart.

She is the commander-in-chief of this operation. As the commander-in-chief, she always remembers not to let her emotions interfere with her actions!

Therefore, she handed Napa in her arms to Yi Ge behind her, separated the two shields in front of her, stepped forward, still with a smile on her lips, and said, "It seems that there is some misunderstanding between us? Mr. Link, it seems that we all agree that this place is the place where the Demon King seals it. Then I would like to ask, what do you want to do when you come to this place?"

Link carefully looked at the woman in front of him with a smile on her mouth, looked at her obviously confident expression, and said, "Come and perform my duties. If you are not the Demon King Army, please go back now. Wait for me to fulfill my duties." After completing my duties, I will personally go to Pelican City to greet you."

Ariel took a deep breath again, spread her hands and said, "To deal with the Demon King, the more people the better. I know it is your responsibility to be named a brave man, but even the Demon King thousands of years ago The war hero still brought many comrades to go together. Can't you stop first, and then we discuss a plan together, exchange information, and then make complete preparations and go in together?"

Trust is such a thing, once it is missing, it will become extremely scary.

When you lose trust, even if you show your greatest goodwill, the other party will think all your intentions in the most treacherous direction.

When Ariel saw the brave man looking at her eyes, Ariel knew that all her words had become nonsense.

But if you think about it from a different angle, if this brave man sees his group of people in this way, then he must think the same way.

Link slowly withdrew his hand holding the sword, and after turning twice skillfully in mid-air, the blade was slightly downward.At the same time, he took a step back towards the opened thorn cave.

"Don't move anymore!"

Cream immediately raised his sleeve arrow and aimed at the brave man.But just as he raised his hand, he saw the brave man wipe his waist with his left hand, and then felt a soreness in the wrist wearing the sleeve arrow.

"Wow!"

After Cream fully came to his senses, he saw that the Hidden Arrow on his wrist had been cut open by the brave man's throwing knife and fell to the ground.In terms of speed, strength, and accuracy, the abilities of this throwing knife are far superior to Cream's skills!

"The Enchanted Witch—Ariel Garcia Marquis. I have heard the rumors about you a long time ago, and even came to witness it myself."

In front, Link's pace is still slowly retreating towards the rear, as if he will rush directly towards the inside in a blink of an eye.

There was no gesture of underestimating the enemy in his eyes, and he was even looking at everyone in front of him with an attitude of fighting against a powerful enemy.To be honest, Ariel hoped that he could despise her, instead of maintaining absolute vigilance like now.

"In your body, I don't feel any magical affinity. You seem to have no elemental affinity as you said."

"However, even if you don't have elemental affinity, you still have some smells that I don't like. It's a dirty, stench, full of corruption that is close to rotten mud. So, if you insist that you If it’s not the Demon King’s Army, then don’t stop me from doing what I should do. Remember, this is my last warning.”

Seeing that Link was about to enter the Thorn Cave, Ariel became even more anxious.

Besides, what is the feeling of decay?It's so disgusting?Isn't this brave man's description of matter too limited?Don't you know that corruption is a feeling full of vitality?

However, since she saw Link continue to step backwards into the Thorn Cave, Ariel also knew that she couldn't wait any longer.

Even if this Link himself didn't want to become the devil king, no one can guarantee that he won't be captured by the devil's power after entering this area alone, and finally be forcibly used as a tool for the devil's reincarnation!

For this reason, no matter how many misunderstandings there are now, it is necessary to fight.

"Link! I also issue an ultimatum to you! You are not allowed to step into this tree hole again! Otherwise, I will regard your behavior as a betrayal of mankind!"

Ariel didn't know where she got the courage, so she raised her voice and shouted out.It wasn't until she yelled this sentence that she felt that she seemed to have completely broken some fragile balance.

Or...that kind of balance never existed from the very beginning.

Link, who wanted to continue to retreat, finally stopped.

He glanced at the thorn cave.It was a cave that could only accommodate one person. Facing the surrounding thorny walls, it was very difficult to even turn around.

Perhaps because of this, he finally took a breath slowly, and then let it out.The footsteps also began to move towards Song of the Mermaid.

However, what this step brings is not peace.

This point, all the members of Song of the Fish can feel it the moment the brave man takes this step in front of him.
