Song of Time – Dusk Awakening Verse

Reunion

The howls echoed in the mountains for a long time.

Rhea listened to it for a moment, and suddenly thought a move. These countless roars and roars didn't seem to be nearby. Could it be from the fortress? Could it be that Leah and the others caused the animal tide? She suddenly raised her heart. Seeing that the captain of the guard next to her had turned into a giant eagle and wanted to go to the air to investigate, she immediately chased up and shouted: "Take me with you!"

The gray eagle flapped its wings and was about to take off. Hearing this request, he turned his head and looked at her, unable to speak, and stretched out his iron claws in the air. Rhea suddenly understood, a lightly leaped to the claws, and he took it to the top of the mountain.

She was squinted by the high-altitude gale, staring at the black mist in the distance and shouting vigorously: "Go to the fortress!" The giant eagle ignored it, or went around the nearby mountain first to make sure there was nothing. Only afterwards turned and flew towards the dark swamp.

It was almost noon, and although the sunlight was dazzling, it still reflected a dim yellow in the thick rolling fog, and nothing was clear. Rhea was in the bright light, unable to know what was happening in the fog, only heard the monster's roar clearer and more sure of her judgment. She reached out her hand and took out the last flash bomb from her pocket, following the loud voice. Throw down hard.

Bai Guang dazzled with an enchantment-like field of vision, and she swept down a large group of reflective metal moving rapidly in this moment, followed by countless beasts of various sizes, turning up smoke and dust in the sky. It must be Tamiris! Her hands trembled with excitement, she had to squeeze her fists hard, drew her longbow and shouted at the gray eagle: "Here are my companions! Please help lead them to a safe place!"

Although the captain of the guard always had a cold face, he did not hesitate to assist him in life-critical matters. He flapped his wings and flew along the edge of the black mist, constantly screaming and guiding the iron bumps below to follow him.

The giant scorpion chariot under the dense fog is in bad condition at the moment. The long scorpion tail has been torn from the middle. The car body is covered with scorched black burns. There are also several wind-venting gaps on the roof, and even the glass is broken. Full of cracks.

Gloria huddled down on the bridge, looking at the red light full of energy shortage, her small face was wrinkled into dry orange peel, Eamon sat silently behind her, holding the huge sword and staring at them. There is a gap, I don't know what I am thinking.

Just now, they took advantage of the daytime to touch the secret tunnel of the cave, intending to retrieve the chariot first before looking for the whereabouts of their companions. Originally it was smooth, but I don't know where the flaw occurred. When they drove the car out of the cave, they were blocked by the countless monsters who chased them wildly yesterday.

So there was this chase and escape. The chariot couldn't receive the light to replenish in the dense fog, and the energy reserve gradually ran out. She had to slow down, but the monsters caught up with the attack. In the chaos and fleeing, the giant scorpion chariot gradually became the tragic look that she is now, seeing her heart dripping blood, it takes how many shiny gold coins to fix it!

Just as she sighed, the air in front suddenly lit up, and the white light circle opened by the flash bomb caught her eyes, making her scream: "Flash bomb! Someone is coming to save us! It must be Rhea and the others! Are you right?" She turned around and stared at the Great Swordsman nervously to gain approval, but the other party just looked towards the sky without saying a word.

The eagle chirps that followed made her feel abruptly down. It turned out that it wasn't... She listened to the constant chirps in the air, seeming to be sending signals, and she picked up her energy and followed the guidance of the calls. Soon See a towering mountain wall in the dense fog. She controlled the chariot to climb up the mountain, and gradually came out of the black mist. Looking up, a super giant eagle hovered on the top of the snow-covered mountain. The sharp iron claws seemed to have a person hanging all over her body. The blue light entangled, and the shabby cloak danced in the wind.

Will it be Rhea? A glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Gloria's heart, and she immediately pushed the energy bar to speed up the chariot. The six mechanical legs trembled and rushed straight to the top of the mountain. Although it was only a short day apart, the guilt she had never experienced before made this time seem to extend endlessly, almost turned into a nightmare. If Rhea didn’t hold me at the time, she would definitely not fall into the bottomless cave with her skill... She blamed herself more than once, and she couldn’t get rid of the terrible conjectures in her mind. At this moment, she suspected that she had received a signal from her companion. Don't let her get so excited?

When she got closer, she could already see the long black hair of the figure, and the magic bow in her hand, it must be Rhea! She was moved by the moment of reunion, and her whole body had goose bumps, her eyes were warm, her nose was sour, and she almost shed tears. No, can't let her underestimate herself! She twitched her nose a few times, bit her lower lip, and greeted the eagle that was flying down quickly.

Rhea saw the embarrassed look of the Tamiris from a distance, and was anxious. Seeing that they climbed the mountainside, there were still many monsters that were good at climbing chasing after them, and they pleaded with the Grey Eagle. Finally persuaded him to descend to the top of the mountain. She raised the longbow in her hand and shot out the icy blue divine arrows one after another, accurately hitting every monster that protruded from the black mist. After the chariot passed by, she waved a large frost and covered the mountain wall. The slippery autumn ice finally blocked the pursuers under the mountainside.

"Come over the mountain!" She stopped the car and screamed at the girl who was poking her head out to say hello. The monster's roar continued to increase, and there was a landslide-like low footsteps in the distance. It is far from when it can be said to be safe!

Gloria stuck out her tongue, and drove over the mountain wall immediately, then crossed a long gorge with the sound of a giant eagle, and bypassed several seemingly impassable cliffs, and finally appeared ahead. A touch of bright green.

In these barren mountains... there is such a beautiful valley! ? The girl who had just arrived in the secret realm instantly forgot the thrilling journey she had just had before, and as soon as she parked the car, she couldn’t wait to pull Eamon out and rolled into the grass, indulging in the fragrance of flowers, she was so comfortable. Almost falling asleep. She shook her arms in the grass and closed her eyes. She was sleepy with an intoxicated smile, but the great swordsman beside her seemed to have no coldness with the beauty, staring at the giant eagle flying in the sky, with her eyebrows Some doubts.

"Leah! Eamon!" The female archer couldn't hide her excitement. She couldn't wait for the gray eagle to land, waved to create an ice bridge, bent down from the air, and stood beside them. She looked at the still indifferent Great Swordsman, and only felt that that stiff face was also very fresh, and couldn't help but pat his arm hard before squatting down and talking with the lazy Gloria.

Eamon seemed to be very uncomfortable with this retake. He glanced sideways at his arm for a long time before watching the giant eagle transform into a human form in the gray light and walk towards him quickly.

"Your Excellency, I didn't expect to meet you again here..." Grey Eagle's eyes flashed with surprise, stepped forward, bowed and bowed to him, "You helped us with that gem last time. I am really grateful. Endless, if there is anything we can do, please don't hesitate to give orders..." He and Rhea who suddenly turned his head looked at each other, because of the indifferent attitude before, his face was embarrassed and he hung his head silently.

"You...know?" Even the people in this mysterious village can know Eamon, is it possible that he learned the way to deal with the Gundam Dragon from here? The female archer felt that this unpredictable companion was even more mysterious at this moment, and her eyes were turning back and forth between them.

The girl lying on the lawn saw that she had lost her attention and quickly bounced up and took a look. After thinking for a long time, she suddenly realized: "Oh, isn't he the boss! It's the guy who took this lady's gems, huh!" she Still brooding about the failed transaction, he cast a contemptuous look at the other party and stood up with Rhea's extended hand.

"I'm really ashamed..." The captain of the guard didn't dare to say more. He felt that he was in a very cramped situation. Fortunately, he saw his teammates hovering and landing quickly coming from the cave. He also took a few steps to greet him. This avoids the girl's eyes like a thief.

"Leah! Mr. J! Are you all uninjured?" Yuno ran to the forefront riding a gerbil, calling out the name of his companion from a distance, his voice trembled, and tears of excitement quietly flashed in his eyes. The young cat next to him stared at the giant scorpion-shaped armored chariot, staring at the iron-clad chariot in the shape of a giant scorpion.

"Yunuo!" The girl also waved at him excitedly, and saw the giant gerbil again, her eyes staring straight, she couldn't even hear the voice of the good sister next to her.

"This is not a place for chatting, Captain Grey Eagle, why don't we go back to the village and talk about it." Rhea saw that everyone was coming together, and it was not very convenient to ask her companions about their experience along the way, so she proposed to go back first.

After receiving the reply from the captain of the guard nodded, she was about to take Gloria back to the chariot for a little question. When the girl suddenly screamed like crazy, she stretched out her hands and ran towards the giant mouse, almost frightened. She jumped.

Yuno didn't know where she was making trouble. Seeing her running hurriedly, for fear that she would fall and bump, he quickly let Kony control the giant mouse to stop. The girl didn't even look at him. She threw herself on Papa, squinted her eyes and rubbed her face. She raised her small face, pointed at the giant rat with a trembling nose, and screamed at the little doctor: "This, this, Big mouse, where did you find it!"

"Hey, Papa is not a mouse! Papa belongs to my house!" Kony was unhappy when he heard this, and raised his face solemnly on the floor, shaking his cat's ears and looked very unhappy.

"It's yours?" The girl stared at him again, and suddenly greeted him enthusiastically, following the manner of the hotel proprietress, "Oh, this little brother is really extraordinary, he is not ordinary at first sight..." After learning a few sentences, she forgot to say what to say later, she could only ask her flat mouth: "Hey, can you sell your Papa?"

"What are you talking about!? Papa is my good partner, how can I sell it!" Kony's eyebrows stood up, his ears trembled with wind, and he leaned forward and wanted to rush down to teach this rude fellow. Nuo held on tightly.

"Okay, okay, she's joking with you, don't be angry, don't be angry..." He coaxed the cat boy and glared at Gloria, "Don't talk nonsense, Papa is his childhood Big family, not pets."

"What? I just want to ask about the price... A petty man, don't sell it, huh!" She muttered a few glumly, glanced sourly at the gerbil who was still curious, and behaved. Grimacing turned around and ran, but he was hitting Eamon, who was standing silently behind her. He whispered and squatted down, clutching his nose.

The Great Swordsman took a look at the young cat who was on guard because of his strong aura. He didn't say anything. He reached for the girl and put it on his shoulder, and strode towards the chariot.

The villagers stared at each other when they saw this scene, and Gray Eagle coughed a few words to Kony with a dry cough, and led the group back. The boy cat was still stern and unhappy. He cast a few gazes at the slowly moving chariot behind him, and then thought that the impudent girl was also inside, so he stopped looking in anger. Yuno was embarrassed to leave him alone and chat with him for a while because of the awkward scene. He didn't hold any grudges, and gradually laughed again.

The team walked in the direction of the green grass hills, and just after passing the guard tower, they saw a row of people crowded on the high slope. Standing in the front was the great elder with white eyebrows and white beards.

Gray Eagle did not dare to neglect, a few lightly jumped forward, attached to his ear to briefly talk about the incident, and by the way introduce two mercenaries who had a fate. The old man listened silently and occasionally nodded in response. After he finished speaking, he glanced at the strangely shaped chariot, leaning on a crutch with a pan-headed cane, and greeted him when he saw Rhea stepping out of the chariot and asked at the beginning: " What happened in the swamp?"

The female archer was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about it, there was nothing to hide, and she frankly said: "I'm not hiding it... We met a guy who claimed to be Faceless in the ruins of the fortress the day before yesterday. These monsters were all created by him. ..."

She described all sorts of thrills yesterday. The old man rode his cane without saying a word. After she finished speaking, she didn't say anything. After a while, she continued to ask, "What are your plans next?"

"The situation is urgent. We want to rush back to Rock City immediately. What should we do depends on the final decision of the guild..."

"Hmm..." The elder nodded thoughtfully, then shook his head, "The Faceless One is probably better than you think..." He sighed but didn't go into details, and looked at the distance. The tattered chariot there trembled and asked, "When will we leave?"

"Of course, the sooner the better..." Rhea followed his gaze and couldn't help frowning slightly. The Tamiris was destroyed by the monster like this, and she didn't know if she could hold her back to Rock City.

"It's better to use an airship to send them a ride..." The gray eagle next to him leaned in and suggested softly. The old man shook his eyebrows and said in a hesitant tone: "The airship...If the airship is driven this time, the village will have no energy stones..."

"We can provide Sahua Stone." Yuno was walking slowly on the gerbil, and when he heard this, he hurriedly climbed down the rat's back and said, "You can rest assured that when you arrive in Rock City, you will definitely compensate everyone. ."

"Um...that's fine." The elder waited for his words and nodded in satisfaction, "However, the old man has one more condition..." He took the crutches and pointed to the captain of the guard beside him: "I think Let Gray Eagle go back with you. No matter what the Mercenary Guild wants to do, you have to let him follow along and understand, how about?"

"No problem." Rhea agreed. She had seen the strength of this shapeshifter. If she could help her in the next action, she couldn't ask for it.

A few people quickly negotiated a plan, and Gray Eagle took everyone back to the village to prepare, and only the old man with long eyebrows was left on the grass mound staring at the distant mountains that echoed in howling. After a while, a wave of tremor suddenly appeared beside him, and a ten-meter-long chameleon lizard appeared in front of him, and turned into an old man with white hair and white eyebrows in the gray light.

"Are you going to let them go?" the old man who had been invisible for a long time asked coarsely, "What if they reveal the news of the village?"

"That guy suddenly changed his temper. The situation cannot be solved by us alone. If the monsters are allowed to dig down, once the safety of the holy stone is endangered..." The elder squeezed the crutch in his hand, his beard and eyebrows shook together." In contrast, these mercenaries are nothing more than slender diseases..."

"I hope so... my old bone can't withstand another turmoil." The old monitor lizard snorted heavily, without saying more, and disappeared into a lizard before his eyes.

The great elder slumped on the hillside for a long time without moving, until the roar of the monster gradually subsided, then he sighed and turned and walked slowly towards the valley.

The valley under the high **** is now full of people. The villagers circled an old medium-sized airship full of patches, and looked at the noisy guy in the middle, with interest in their eyes.

"...Please, please, Brother Gray Eagle, take me there!" The young cat pestered the captain, grabbing his cloak and desperately begging, "I'll be obedient, take me there, okay? "

"Shut up..." Gray Eagle carefully placed the last few bags of spices to be sold in Rock City, and glared at him, "If you are more verbose, I will shut you into the little black room."

"Take me there, take me there..." Kony ignored his threats at all, sticking to his side and smashing thoughts, making his head big.

Gloria just packed the chariot that was put into the airship warehouse, and looked back at the young boy's stalking look. She rolled her eyes and thought about it: "Hey, boy, if you want to follow it, you can, but Well, there is a condition..."

"What conditions..." Kony stared at the girl guardedly, thinking that she would dare to buy Papa or something, so he rushed to bit her.

Of course, the girl will not make the same mistake again, smile slyly, and start negotiations with a stern face: "The terms, that is, when you get to Yancheng, you have to let me ride that rat."

"Is it just riding?" The cat boy asked with a doubt on his face and trembled his ears.

"Yes, but...whenever this lady wants to ride this rat, you must agree to it." The girl let out the trap without showing a trace, thinking that this stupid kid would definitely not see it. , As long as he rides every day, he won't go back!

"You can only ride!" The young cat didn't think there was anything wrong, but he still stared at her with wide eyes to confirm.

"Don't worry, I lied to you as a puppy!" Seeing that the trick was successful, the girl smiled and leaned over to hook up with him, and saw that the captain of the guard beside her looked calm, and quickly bribed, "Captain Gray Eagle, you take him. Well, I will give you one more gem when I get to Rock City."

Upon hearing this, the gray eagle, who was in a tight pocket, suddenly stopped speaking, silently glanced at the crowd of onlookers with different expressions, snapped a few fingers, and took the guards participating in the trip to prepare to set sail.

The old airship rose slowly amid the farewell sound of everyone, the boy cat lay on the bow looking at the snow-capped peaks in the distance, his eyes flashed with countless longings, thinking about how wonderful the legendary big city would be. How many delicious grilled fish are waiting for him, and his furry ears are so excited that they tremble.

Rhea and Yuno ran to the cabin to prepare this mission report. Gloria leaned on the gerbil who was napping on the deck, with a satiated face, gently rubbing the soft fluff and closing her eyes to rest. Suddenly there was a flash of light in his brain, and he bounced up and looked at Emmon, who was sitting on the opposite side, with a straight look: "I seem to think...Is something missing..."

The Great Swordsman glanced at her silently, then turned his head to look at the white clouds floating by the airship, thoughtfully.

In an unknown cave somewhere, Jie Hai, a miserable young man who was forgotten by everyone, shrank in the corner, staring at the small ball that kept trembling at the entrance of the cave.

He wanted to participate in this morning's chariot reclamation operation, but was rejected mercilessly by the troublesome girl, leaving him alone in the cave, and for the sake of safety, he also left the magical spectrum. Reflectometer.

In this way, he waited and waited since the morning. Seeing that the light outside gradually turned to dim, he still didn't see the two mercenaries, and felt uneasy. For a while he wondered if the two were in danger, and for a while, he wondered what he would do if the umbrella-like instrument failed. He was even more afraid that the two saviors who met by the water would leave him alone, and leaned on the cold face with a sad face. Shek Pik did not dare to make a little noise.

The cave was quiet and silent, but after a while, there was a cooing sound, reminding him like an alarm clock: It is time to eat something after a day of hungry.

He rubbed his sour stomach, took out a small leather bag next to him, took out a cold meatball with the size of a child's fist, blinked and hesitated for a moment, finally couldn't beat the temptation of food, and took a bite.

It's delicious... He was surprised, and didn't understand why Miss Gloria would avoid this ball like a snake. He was hungry at the moment, and he couldn't control so much. He swallowed it in two or two mouthfuls, then took one out of the bag and tasted it beautifully.

Mr. Eamon’s craftsmanship is really good. Although the meatballs are already cold, they still can’t conceal the strange scent in the meat, which makes him enjoy eating. It's a little bit dry... I knew I would ask Mr. Eamon for some porridge... He was eating meatballs, but he was thinking about it without the edge, which was so gross that it was emotional.

The chewing sound in the hole reverberated gently, trying to escape the only remaining gap, but the shield opened by the small ball bounced back. There was silence in the barren mountains, and the black mist drifting in the distance slowly covered it, rolling in uncertainty. In the sky, a huge gray eagle was flying against the setting sun that was sinking to the west, spreading its wings.
