It was foggy.

Terrence let out a sigh of relief lying in the wooden barrel filled with hot water. He turned over, splashed up, and lay on the edge of the barrel looking out at the night at the window.

Among the swaying leaves blown by the wind, the silhouette of a tall tower in the distance can be seen faintly.

Looking in that direction, Terrence thought of the jewel that was suddenly disturbed in the White Tower today - because he heard the news of Lanser, Terrence forgot about it at that time, and now he took off the necklace on his neck and thinned it. Take a closer look.

The large gemstone hanging on the silver chain still shone warmly in the mist, and in the middle of the gemstone, you can faintly see the red veins entangled with each other...

Terrence sat up straight suddenly.

——In the past, this gemstone was a pure-color spar without any patterns.

He stretched out his hand to disperse the white mist in front of his eyes, and looked at the gemstone close to his eyes.The milky/white spar is like amber, tightly wrapped in a mass of blood-colored lines, and it is clearly visible.

That is a magic circle.

Terrence was absolutely sure of that.

Perhaps because of disturbances from the rioting elements in the White Tower, what the gem has been hiding has finally been revealed.

He thought of the "White Crystal" that the Grand Duke of Sealand must get from him, and the treasure that the other party never forgets might be this gem in his hand.

Terrence stood up from the water. Under the operation of water magic, the water droplets on his body fell into the barrel as if he became conscious. He picked up the shirt that was placed aside and put it on, and hurried towards the desk. go.

Dawn dawns in the forest as moist, flickering rays of light pass through the canopy.

Lancer held the sword and pushed open the door. He wanted to hone his martial arts skills, but he saw Terrence sitting there in front of the window of the other room.

"Master, have you gotten up yet?" The blond knight asked near the window.

Hearing his voice, Terrence raised his head in a daze, his eyes were black and blue, but his whole face was sickly white.Terrence rubbed his forehead before focusing his eyes on Lancer, and it took him a few seconds to realize what the other party just said.He had stayed up all night because of the jewel, and his temples still throbbed.

Lancer noticed a stack of manuscript papers full of symbols and calculations scattered on the table in front of him, and couldn't help frowning: "Have you never taken a break?"

"It's okay..." Terrence said vaguely, but couldn't help yawning.

Seeing his sleepy look, Lancer urged him in a deep voice, "What do you have to do, that you don't care about your health like this, go to bed and rest!"

"...that's not okay." Terrence smiled wryly and sighed, and gathered the manuscript papers on the table together. "I'll go to the elders to confirm some things later."

As he spoke, his gaze fell on a few heavily marked calculations, and the fingers holding the manuscript paper were so hard that they tore the top few sheets of paper.

"It's very important, how can I sleep if I don't figure it out..." Terrence flattened the paper and whispered.

Lancer knew that once Terrence's temper came up, there was no way to dissuade him, but he felt sorry for how tired he made himself, so he turned over and jumped into the room to help Terrence pack things together.

When the sky was brighter, visitors were welcomed in front of the wooden house—no, to be precise, it was its previous owner.

Chris came over with Ivan, the boy's expression was full of reluctance, but he followed behind Chris obediently.

Seeing him through the window, Lancer couldn't help but stop what he was doing.Terrence pushed him behind him: "Why are you in a daze? Do you have something to say?"

The blond knight was pushed and staggered, and he leaned forward to stabilize his body. Terrence saw the shaking in his heart at a glance, sighed secretly, and said in his heart that I am really like Adam now, I really have nothing to do Worrying endlessly, he poked his head out of the open window and called two people in.

Ivan hesitated for a moment, turned his gaze to Lancer who was also watching him, and finally walked in slowly.

Chris stood outside, apparently not planning to come in with Ivan.Terrence looked at the awkward atmosphere of the two people in the room, and felt that although the tall man looked rough, his mind was quite delicate.He also walked out of the wooden house, leaving space for the brothers who had reunited after a long absence.

Chris saw Terrence coming out, nodded to him, and said, "The elder said that if you have nothing to do, you can go to the temple to find him."

Terrence raised his eyebrows and looked at the white spire in the distance.

This time, the old man did not wait for Terrence in front of the tower gate. When Terrence walked outside the temple, he had already stood in the tower for a long time.

The climbing vines planted yesterday still densely covered the entire tower wall, Terrence couldn't help showing a look of surprise, knowing that the whole tower is made of large stone slabs, there is no place for the seeds to take root, Terrence Si thought that no matter how active the elements in the tower were, the plants would wither and disappear overnight without nutrients.

Now it seems that the reason why the creeping vine can grow vigorously is not all because of the stimulation of the wood element, but because of some more powerful force to maintain its state.

Terrence thought of what the old man said yesterday, this is a temple dedicated to the goddess of life.

——Does that wonderful and powerful divine power still exist to this day?

Terrence raised his head and kept looking at the ancient building.

The old man stood beside him with a cane, and said in a rambling voice: "I thought that the fate between you and Chevinlieu was the magic circle on your chest, but I didn't expect that your connection with this place is even deeper. Fate like this Things, I really can’t put it into words.”

Terrence looked at the old man, took out the changed gemstone and asked, "Do you know the origin of this thing?"

He remembered that when the gem was shining yesterday, the old man had mentioned it, but was interrupted by the female swordsman who suddenly broke in.

The old man took a look at the thing and sighed: "The last time I saw it, I was still such a big child." He said, comparing himself to his waist.

"That was all over a century ago."

Terrence's eyes widened in surprise: "A century?"

The old man glanced at him and pointed to the temple with his crutches: "Don't think that I can walk now, but I'm already over 160 years old. The elders of all generations have guarded the temple, so they will naturally be affected by the temple. To be honest, among these people, I am afraid that I will be the one who lived the shortest. When the last elder died, he had lived for more than 400 years. He...he..."

The old man sighed suddenly, showing a sad expression he had never seen before: "This stone has something to do with him too—it has been enshrined in the temple for a long time, and it is a part of a greater stone."

"Put it away first, and I'll take you through the rest of the murals." The old man suddenly changed the subject, "After you read those things, you will understand the origin of this stone."

The two of them floated up again cautiously relying on the wind magic. The old man pushed aside the covering vines, pointed to a mural that was so simple that there were only a few lines, and began to talk—relying on his words, it was a Unbelievably wonderful story.

The author has something to say:

In the very beginning, the people on this continent were like now. People exercised magic and sharpened their martial arts to arm themselves. At that time, people only worshiped the most primitive nature and the corresponding magical elements, and never knew what gods were.

Until the first goddess was born from the central mountains.

That is a female mage who is constantly seeking the mysteries of the world. She explores the mysteries of life and travels through many places until she reaches the uninhabited depths of the Central Mountain Range.There, she finds a huge, never-before-seen gemstone that fascinates her with its mysterious powers.She lived in the central mountain range, studying gems day and night, until one day she finally came into contact with the mystery of the whole world—then the goddess in charge of life came down from the mountain range and came to the world.

Immediately afterwards, countless mages who pursued the mystery went to the central mountain range one after another. Some of them succeeded, so a new god appeared in the world, and more people died here.

The gem with great power has attracted everyone's attention, and its ability is even more amazing-humans in the settlements near it are affected, and gradually evolve into elves and dwarves with long lives, and the nearby monsters evolve into more For long-lived dragons and demons.

In the tens of thousands of years since then, many long-lived races have been born, fighting against each other on this continent, and seizing the dominance.

Until one day, the gem that had been standing quietly on the spot suddenly vibrated, and the entire central mountain range trembled, and the asylums endowed with long life and powerful power by it were facing the end of life one by one.

The ethnic groups who competed with each other decided to join hands to destroy the boulder that once brought them prosperity. Be it the gods or the giant dragons, they gathered in the central mountain range one after another.

But the ending was already doomed. The long-lived species died one after another under the powerful force of the sudden eruption of the boulder. The central mountain range was even razed to the ground, but because of the energy of the boulder, it quickly evolved into a postwall forest stretching hundreds of kilometers.

This is what the remaining but ignorant humans call the Great Annihilation.

Terrence looked at the mural full of dragons, elves, and all kinds of creatures that are now unknown hovering in the air. The tragedy of that time seemed to span thousands of years and approached before his eyes.

He remained silent until he came back to his senses after a long time, and asked incredulously, "You mean, this gemstone is part of the boulder that wiped out all the gods at that time?"

The old man nodded.
