Paladin

Evan barely woke up from the chaos.

He felt that his body was as heavy as being filled with mercury, and as if something was holding his limbs firmly, he could only open his eyes unable to move.

However, it was still dark when he opened his eyes. It seemed to be in some kind of dark cave. Except for the faint light refracted in from a distance, all he could see was the outline of the cave wall in the darkness.

Evan's mind was buzzing, and his eyes were sore as if they hadn't been used for 1 years, so he could only close them again.He felt weak all over, and felt that he was lying on something that was shaking, and then he could barely hear someone talking in his noisy ears.

Two young men were saying:

"Banjamin, where can we throw this fossil? The teacher asked us to deal with it...but he didn't say how to deal with it."

"How do I know? Sigh...the amber that the teacher worked so hard to get back a month ago, I think the fossil inside should be more important than the amber in the outer layer, but...the teacher doesn't care about this guy at all, every day Watch Amber there."

"Hush...Banjamin, it seems that Teacher Amber got it from the Thorium Council, but he didn't say anything about it... You said, this person was sealed in Amber by accident, like those innocent little Is it the same as a flying insect?"

"I don't see it...how can anyone pose in such a neat pose when they are unlucky enough to be trapped by Kohaber?"

"Then is there anyone else who was sealed in amber on purpose?"

"It's also possible that after death, I don't want to be cremated or buried in the ground, so I put it in amber, so that I can keep my best appearance completely..."

Evan felt that he was placed on a small cart, and the two young men seemed to be pushing the cart, walking in the cave.The cave became more uneven as it went out, and the cart bumped and bumped from time to time.

"Benjamin! Look quickly, did the man move his eyelashes?"

"No, don't scare me, it should just hit the cart..."

The two young men chatted aimlessly, and when they pushed the cart to the entrance of the cave, the light had replaced the darkness.

Evan could feel a sting in his eyes, as if he couldn't bear the long-lost light.

With his eyes closed tightly, he heard two young men say:

"Let's just throw him into the sea and let it go? If the Sea Demon Anemone raised by the teacher likes it, he will probably eat him..."

"It's okay if you don't like it. The tide will be high soon. When the time comes, the entrance will be completely closed, and the tide here will flow back along the seabed. This fossil is estimated to remain on the seabed forever."

After the two discussed it, they came together to move the amber on the trolley——

At this time, the outer layer of dark golden beautiful amber has been completely stripped off, leaving only a layer of extremely hard shell covering the figure inside, and the appearance of the sleeping person inside—Evan is almost clearly visible.

When the two moved him, they said sincerely: "He is so handsome... I know that the elves are all good-looking, but I didn't expect to be able to see it so well... Tell me, could it be that the blood of the ancient elves is purer? So it's more beautiful?"

"I don't know about this, but fair-haired elves seem to be really rare, maybe they are of the blood of the sun elves... It's not quite right, I heard that the number of sun elves is very small, and they can only guarantee their blood by intermarriage, with white skin It's scary. His ears are as long as a forest elf, and his skin color is like a moon elf. This elf may be a hybrid."

"Ah... I don't understand, he's already dead anyway, I don't want him anymore."

The two worked together and threw the amber wrapped around Evan into the sea.

Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief and looked up. At this moment, there was a wonderful sunset on the sea. The magnificent sea surface was constantly ups and downs, and the afterglow of the setting sun adorned it.

The seagulls are coming back together, and their long cries are carried by the sea breeze.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go back to the laboratory. The results of Teacher Gray's research are about to come out." The young mage apprentice said.

Evan sank in the sea, the blue sky and the golden-red sunset gradually dissipated before his eyes, and these lights could only illuminate the water ten meters deep.

The tide quickly returned on the bottom of the sea, just like the mage apprentice said, floating the whole piece of amber to the depths of the ocean.

Soon everything returned to silence, and Evan thought blankly in this silence: Where am I... Where?What about Mu You?What about maze?I slept for...how long?

He closed his eyes and exhaled lightly, until this moment he suddenly began to breathe for the first time since waking up.

The last layer of amber wrapped him so tightly that he could hardly move, and it continuously provided him with the energy needed to maintain his life.

Evan gradually regained some strength, and heard a light click, but when he heard it again, he could only hear the creepy sound of water flowing deep in the bottom of the sea—the sound was deep and slow, which was disturbing for no reason irritable.

Evan suddenly saw the aurora in the dark sea——

These pink bands of light swim gracefully and freely in the sea water, like free seaweed, or like the tentacles of...something.

Evan frowned slightly. As soon as he woke up, he was thrown into the sea. At this time, his body had not fully recovered, and the sea was by no means a safe place.

After Evan struggled to crack the remaining amber, the first thing he did was to touch his back——

His phoenix double blades are still behind him.

Evan slowly pulled his old buddy out of the scabbard, and for a moment a light golden light flashed across the dark seabed, and then he heard the sound of amber cracking.

Evan held his breath tightly, held the sword in both hands, and saw the pink light not far away as if he had discovered something, and swam towards here at an extremely fast speed——

This time, it can be seen clearly that the lights clearly come from an indescribable multi-tentacled creature, with dozens of densely packed tentacles completely covering its original appearance, and each of its tentacles is a long pink translucent strip , drifting about in the sea, no doubt seeking and grabbing poor prey.

Now the monster seems to be attracted by something, and it is attacking Evan quickly against the seabed.

Evan had nowhere to rely on in the sea, so he flipped his sword over and plunged into the seabed.Although the sword had been sleeping with him for an unknown amount of time, it was as sharp as ever, and sank straight into the bottom of the sea without stirring up any sand, fixing Evan's floating body in place.

A golden light flickered in Evan's eyes.

Holy territory!

A golden rune appeared on Evan's forehead in an instant, and then a faint sacred light lit up from the phoenix sword, and penetrated into the bottom of the sea along with the blade.

In an instant, the sea sand swirled and flew out of the water, and the divine power spreading from under Evan's feet drove everything out within a five-meter radius of him, revealing only the bare black seabed, on which golden rays of light continued to shine.

Evan retracted the sword into his palm, and faced the sea monster with a slight frown.

The surge of the sea tide shook the monster's pink tentacles. It lingered fearfully outside the sacred territory, and tentatively stretched out the two tentacles unwillingly.

In an instant, only an extremely slight sound was heard, and the two tentacles were immediately burned by the holy light.

This is a dark creature!

Evan took a step forward in the water.

But the monster seemed to understand that the creature in front of him was not easy to mess with, and immediately shook all its tentacles, retreating extremely quickly—on the dark seabed, it retreated tens of meters in just a few seconds, and the pink tentacles were almost completely gone. visible.

Evan knew that it was impossible for him to catch up with this kind of creature on the bottom of the sea, so he put his sword back into its sheath, stepped lightly on the bottom of the sea, and then swam towards the surface of the sea.

A few minutes later, Evan was washed to the shore by the tide exhaustedly, lay down on the coarse sand for a while, and got up coughing unceasingly.

"Cough cough...cough!"

Evan tried his best to cough up all the sea water, but still felt exhausted, knowing that it was because he had slept in the amber for too long.

He rested for a moment, inspecting himself:

The double phoenix blades were intact on his back, and the full set of plate armor on his body had been dimmed for too long—but the enchantment effect on it was also intact, and it was not as heavy and hindered as ordinary plate armor.

In addition, the legendary long cloak on his body is as bright as new, and it has not been affected by time in the slightest. It is still draped on his shoulders-this legendary equipment can be compared to an artifact on the continent of Calandor. It has allowed Evan to escape from death several times come out.

Evan took a deep breath and shook the cloak. When the sea water rolled over it, the cloak was as clean and dry as ever.The paladin unfolded the cloak to wrap around his eye-catching silver armor, like a ground-length white and gold cloak, but there was no hood to hide his face.

He looked up at the sky, and now the sunset was completely invisible on the sea level, only the last touch of red was reluctantly smearing the junction of the water and the sky.

This is an unknown seaside area. One side of the beach is a black cliff washed out by the sea for thousands of years. There is only one direction for Evan to walk.

The sea water was slowly rising, and Evan tried to walk along the bottom of the cliff as much as possible.When the tide washes over his feet, dark green moss can be seen from time to time, and sometimes a few tiny crabs walk through the riddled reef.

Evan had to take off his heavy armor boots. Although they were enchanted to be extremely close-fitting and light, it also made him feel uncomfortable after the fine sand entered the soles of his feet.

He leaned against the cliff, and gradually saw some berry clusters growing in the gradually drying soil. He squatted down to inspect these bushes, and saw that there were traces of being picked by humans, so he knew that there should be a big human nearby. village.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Evan saw traces of human walking.

Not long after, he saw a person sitting on a boulder not far away.

When Evan approached to take a look, he saw that this person had light brown skin, dark, tangled hair and beard, was extremely tall, and was wearing several pieces of tattered burlap clothing. Wrapped in countless cloth strips, sitting on the boulder, staring blankly at the direction Evan was coming from.

"Hello, I would like to ask..." Evan asked politely.

Seeing Evan approaching, the man suddenly interrupted him and asked in a strange tone: "Are you a mage?"

Evan said, "No, I'm not."

The man let out an oh, and then refused to speak any more, just continued to look there with a pair of dark blue eyes.

Evan frowned slightly, seeing that this person's intelligence level was not high, so he could only tighten his cloak slightly, and then continued on the way he came.

Before the sky completely darkened, Evan found a small human fishing village not far away.
