Translator: 549690339
Frost country was located on the plains outside the fortress.
The soldiers guarding the fortress would form small teams to patrol outside during the rest of the snowstorm to ensure that no demon intruders would invade.
After arriving at the fortress, Ravel took up the position of Scout leader.
Life in the fortress was very boring. His fiancée was also missing… The leaf of the world tree given to him by the new king of Frost country was the only artifact that could dispel the boring military life.
Today, Ravel brought his subordinates to the plains to investigate as usual, but they were attacked by a group of unknown people.
!!The attacker was covered in a tattered black robe, and the magic he cast was vicious and swift. Before Ravel could give his subordinates any orders, the horse he was riding turned into minced meat and fell into the snow.
Ravel also fell into the snow in a sorry state. When he wanted to get up and fight back, he was knocked unconscious by something on the back of his head.
When Ravel woke up again, he found that he was tied up by a rope made of magic power!
He looked around and saw that the black-robed men had surrounded him. Ravel saw some unknown religious symbols on the black robes.
“Who are you people? How dare you kidnap the soldiers of the Frost Country?”Ravel warned the black-robed men loudly.
However, they did not react at all. When Ravel tried to break free, someone pushed his head down into the snow.
Ravel glanced at the person who had pushed him down. Under the tattered robe, a lifeless face appeared. Ravel recognized this face.
It was a recruit from his scout team.
“Jonathan! What are you doing!”
Ravel raised his voice, but his expression did not change. He heard a painful wail from the other side.
Half of his face was buried in the snow, but he could see what was happening on the left side clearly.
The other members of the scout team were also kidnapped. When one of the members gradually woke up, a black-robed man suddenly covered his face with his hand.
Ravel clearly saw the arm of the black-robed man. There were many inscriptions on it, and the inscriptions were emitting a metallic luster. The man seemed to be much shorter than his other companions.
Magic? Ravel looked at the Scout again. He let out a terrified howl and soon fell into the snow.
When the Scout got up again, his eyes had become lifeless and he kept mumbling some strange words.
“It’s time for the next heart lock.”
An old voice urged the short black-robed man, but the black-robed man named Heart Lock just stood there quietly.
“This person is not delicious. The quantity… is too little.”
The black-robed man named Xin Suo sounded very strange. Ravel felt as if the frequencies of many women’s voices were pieced together.
“Perhaps the next person’s emotions are even more delicious?”
The old man standing behind xin suo urged her again. She nodded slightly and slowly walked in front of Ravel.
The recruit behind Ravel also made him sit up again, facing the existence in front of him.
The arm full of inscriptions reached out to Ravel. Ravel widened his eyes and saw a strange protocrystal embedded in her palm.
When Ravel reacted again, he was already in the Dark Mine, and his dead brother was standing in front of him.
Was this an illusion? Ravel looked around and reached out to touch the rock wall. The touch was real.
Ravel’s brother waved at him and smiled at him, saying, “You’ve slept here long enough.”.
When Ravel was about to reach out to grab his brother’s hand, his brother’s chest was suddenly pierced by a spike, and his face began to twist.
Ravel remembered at this moment! His brother had died a few months ago… the scene around him began to change, and an indescribable fear swept through his body.
“It’s not good.”
Suddenly, this voice rang in Ravel’s ears. The changing scene around him instantly disappeared in his eyes. When Ravel opened his eyes again, he had returned to the snowy ground.
A black-robed person came before him and handed him a similar robe, while another person helped him untie himself.
Ravel’s consciousness was still there. He could have pulled out a dagger and slit the neck of the man in front of him, but Ravel did not do so.
Although he did not know what helped him resist the invasion of the nightmare, Ravel had to pretend to be one of them if he was to survive.
Ravel put on the slightly tattered robe and subconsciously grabbed the pendant made of the leaves of the world tree on his chest.
Disappeared?
Ravel looked up in panic and saw that his pendant was in the hands of the black-robed man named ‘Heart Lock’.
At this moment, killing intent surged in Ravel’s heart, but he still managed to hold it back.
She had the ability to invade the consciousness of others, and the strength of the other black-robed men was unknown.
It was not too late for him to come back and destroy this group of strange cultists after he found help!
..
“Are you still not satisfied? Heart Lock?”
The leader of the black-robed men turned around and asked her.
“There are too few single humans.”
She silently glanced at the group of humans who were walking like corpses behind her and added in a strange tone.
“I don’t feel anything.”
“It doesn’t matter. Do you see that fortress in the distance? There is enough food there.”The leader of the black-robed men said to her in an excited tone that was slightly deranged, “I will definitely be able to satisfy you.”
She did not answer the black-robed man. She just stared at the pendant in her hand.
The tender green leaf was sealed in the translucent pendant… But this leaf had a fatal attraction in her eyes.
She did not understand where this attraction came from, but she still subconsciously activated the magic engraved on her arm.
Thoughts flooded into her consciousness like a tide, so much so that she could not handle it at all. When she forcibly stopped the operation of her thoughts, waiting for the oncoming torrent to gradually fade away..
Everything around her finally calmed down. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a luxurious corridor.
The spotless ground reflected her slightly thin figure, and the decorations around her perfectly described the word ‘gorgeous’.
But what really caught her attention was the music that came from nowhere. She walked along the corridor in a daze and came to the hall of this building.
A girl in a golden long dress was dancing in the hall with a slightly ferocious-looking beast.
A noble’s ball… she had seen this scene countless times, and she had also ruined it several times, turning the entire ball into ruins.
However, a large amount of joy stirred up some ripples in her dead heart. In her colorless eyes, she looked at the two figures on the dance floor and was once again filled with excitement.
For the first time since she had awakened, she tasted the emotion called joy.
