Dudian quietly watched pulley and the others leave the valley. They had stayed in the dragon cave for too long. The other villagers had come out and returned to their own lives, no one would care about it. He was about to leave. For him, this was just a small episode in the journey. The new journey was still going on.
Next to him, Amelia looked at the canyon. She stepped on a few loose stones and almost fell down. Fortunately, Dudian caught her in time.
She turned to look at Dudian who was calm. Her mood was a bit complicated: “Why did you save me?”
“Save You?”Dudian looked at her: “Even if I don’t hold you, you won’t die from the fall. You are not the same as before. Adapt to the power in your body.”
Amelia was startled. She remembered that she wasn’t the same as before. Dudian had forced her to eat the worms in the Dragon Cave. Her body had been reborn and possessed extraordinary strength. She could see very far away, she could hear the whispers of priory and others at the bottom of the canyon. She hadn’t adapted to such a strong body as Dudian had said.
However, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart when she thought that Dudian had forced her to have such a strong body. She knew more about the preciousness of power than Dudian, at the moment she didn’t think that those insects were difficult to swallow. She had gotten used to eating them and even liked the feeling of the changes in her body after eating them.
However she knew that there was a long distance between her and Dudian. The speed of Dudian’s fight with the insects was too much for her to catch.
“Are you going to... Leave Here?”Amelia bit her lips and whispered.
Dudian looked up into the distance and calmly said: “Of course, even if I want to stay, you don’t welcome me here.”
Amelia looked at the side of the boy’s face and asked: “Where do you want to go?”
“To a promising place.”Dudian looked ahead, “The world is very big. The place where you live is too small. If you have the opportunity, you can go to the outside world. However, the premise is that you have the power to travel around. The God’s wall that you want to go to is just a big cage. There are many places like the God’s wall. There are even God’s kingdoms. They are the largest cage in the world.”
“There are many walls? There is a Kingdom of God?”Amelia was shocked by Dudian’s words.
“This is what I know. The more places you go, the more you will know. Maybe there is a bigger place above the Kingdom of God.”Dudian didn’t hide his information, he told her everything.
Amelia looked at dudian and suddenly asked: “Why are you saying that it is a cage? Don’t you want to stay in the wall? There are so many beasts out there and they will die at any time. It is safe to stay in the wall.”
“There is no place that is safe forever. Moreover there are more than just beasts in the human world. There are other people like you who think that I am your enemy.”Dudian looked at her, “There are too few people here and you are high up in the world. You will know that everyone wants to be high up in the wall. But some people can’t be high up in the world. But they have such expectations. They can only get it through some means. It is either a formal way or an informal way.”
“Speaking of which, the informal way is a shortcut. The shortcut is hidden in every formal way. It is like light and darkness. There is only day and night. It can not be called a day. It can only be counted as half a day.”
Amelia was startled. She felt that what Dudian said was difficult to understand. However, she felt that it made sense. She instinctively didn’t want to accept it because she knew that the informal way was cruel, ugly.
“We can’t go to the wall. Although you said many things but we don’t know any of them.”Amelia quietly bowed her head.
Dudian quietly said: “I said that I will tell you the route to the wall when I leave. I will keep my word. In addition, you should go back after I leave. You have done your part as a hostage. If you continue to follow me then you will die. Even I will die at any time in the abyss. If I take you with me then you will die!”
Amelia raised her head and looked at him in disbelief: “You, you let me go?”
“You don’t want to?”
“No no no, I want to, I want to!”Amelia waved her hand and almost tripped. She was afraid that Dudian would go back on his words: “I will never tell you about leaving. I will keep it a secret.”
“No need.”Dudian indifferently said: “By the time you go back, I will have already left this place. Even if you tell the high priest, it will be fine. For me, this is just a hotel. After staying there, I will leave. Maybe there will be no more interactions.”
Amelia was startled. She looked at Dudian’s calm face. She suddenly felt that this teenager was different from her previous impression. She knew that Dudian was serious. With his strength, there was no need to deceive her. It was just that.., this happiness and hope came too suddenly. She was ready to die. She was even thinking about how Dudian would bring her out of the wilderness and cause the beasts to die together with Dudian, but now she was let go by Dudian. She wasn’t mentally prepared.
“Don’t you want to kill me to avenge you?”Amelia looked into Dudian’s eyes.
“Revenge?”
“The great priest used the beam cannon to ambush you. We came up with this idea together. Don’t you hate me?”
Dudian indifferently replied: “Since I didn’t die and wasn’t injured, why should I hate you? Although you are talkative and noisy, but what good would it do me to kill you? Now that I have escaped danger, the previous matters can be written off as long as you don’t provoke me in the future.”
Amelia looked at Dudian’s calm appearance. She wanted to say something but stopped. She couldn’t believe that Dudian would be so kind. After all, she had seen the face of this man in the Dragon Cave, he was merciless and used her as a pathfinder stone. He didn’t care about her feelings and life. He was cold-blooded and cruel. But now, he let her go so easily?
Her mind suddenly thought of something. Her eyes flashed with coldness. She bowed her head but didn’t say anything. She didn’t want to anger Dudian and kill herself.
Dudian took out a metal cylinder from his backpack. There was pen and paper inside. He sat on the ground and spread the paper on a piece of thick leather. He quickly drew the map and handed it to Amelia, “This is the route to the wall where I live. The name of our wall is Sylvia. It is the name of the Aragami.”
Amelia took the map. She looked at it and put it away.
Dudian saw that she wasn’t happy. He guessed her thoughts and shook his head, “You don’t have to worry about the map being fake. It will lead you to a dangerous place. As far as I know, you should have a way to explore it when you asked me for the map. I guess you have some other extraordinary detection tools. If you are worried that the map is fake then you can send people to explore it. After all, you don’t have much time to live here. You will need to migrate sooner or later. Of course, if you are still suspicious then you can tear up the map.”
Amelia was startled. She didn’t think that Dudian would speak out her thoughts so directly. Indeed, she thought that Dudian’s gift of the map might be a conspiracy but Dudian had made it clear, moreover, what he said was what she thought in her heart. She originally planned to go back to explore the authenticity of the map. If it was true then she would migrate so that there wouldn’t be the risk of extinction.
“Why are you willing to give me the map? Is there a danger waiting for us in the wall?”Amelia looked at dudian, she was afraid that her words would expose Dudian and anger him. But she still wanted a true answer. After all, they could only detect whether the wall was true or false, but they couldn’t detect the danger inside.
Dudian was speechless, “Do you have such a bad impression of me? Do you need to be so skeptical? Or do you have a suspicious nature? Anyway, I have fulfilled my promise. If you are worried then tear up the map and pretend that I didn’t give it to you.”
Amelia looked at Dudian’s eyes. She was silent: “I will verify this. In any case, if you don’t kill me today, I will save you in the future.”
“It’s good to know how to repay kindness. Unfortunately you don’t have the opportunity.”Dudian looked at the dawn: “I should go. If I can live back then maybe we can meet again.”
Amelia looked at Dudian who was about to leave. She felt guilty that she was wrong about this person, she couldn’t help but ask: “Do you really want to find a way to save your... lover?”
“Of course. Otherwise, why would I come here?”Dudian’s eyes fell on Aisha’s body. There was only gentleness and a trace of regret in his eyes, “Unfortunately, there is no way or clue here. I can only go to further places to find it.”
Amelia looked at the tenderness on Dudian’s face. She bit her lips and didn’t say anything else.
Dudian had told her everything. He whispered to Aisha: “Let’s go.”
The Breeze Blew. Aisha’s purple cheongsam was slightly opened, revealing her snow-white calves. The scenery was picturesque and she was as calm as water.
Dudian held her hand. With a whoosh, his magic wings appeared on his back and he flew away. In the blink of an eye, he glided to the other side of the canyon and disappeared from Amelia’s sight. After flying into the forest.., the peace on his face gradually disappeared and he returned to his usual indifference.
Whoosh!
In the forest, Dudian and Aisha quickly flew forward. He used x-ray vision to check the environment in front and left to avoid being ambushed by monsters.
After four or five miles, Dudian met a forest python. Ordinary Pythons were not poisonous but this forest python had black stripes all over its body. It opened its mouth and a fishy smell wafted out. It made people dizzy. It was obvious that it was highly toxic, dudian didn’t dare to be careless. He entered the magic body and rotated his body in the air. He was like an awl as he hit the Python. Puff Puff Puff. The head of the Forest Python and the body of the giant python were instantly crushed by Dudian.
Dudian didn’t stop and continued to move forward. He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
Although he believed that Amelia wouldn’t let the High Priest to kill him but he couldn’t guarantee that the high priest wouldn’t want to kill him. After all, the latter wasn’t like Amelia who was inexperienced and simple-minded.
Dudian rushed out of the forest and killed a few monsters that lived in the forest. However, they were all inner barren level monsters. He was able to kill them in one move. The horror of the splitter was once again demonstrated, even if the other masters of magic marks could kill these monsters, they would need to spend a lot of effort. Only the splitter which was an extreme attack monster would be able to burst out and kill the enemy in an instant.
After leaving the forest, Dudian slowed down and continued to move forward.
Half a day later, the Sun appeared. It was noon. The Sun was the hottest time of the day. However, Dudian didn’t feel a trace of warmth. The Fog in the sky was too thick and the Sun couldn’t shine into the ruins.
After half a day of traveling, he felt that there shouldn’t be any pursuers. With the strength of the Amelia clansmen, they wouldn’t be able to chase him for so long. He crossed mountains and crossed ridges. There were some railway lines and broken houses, he came to an even bigger ruin. This ruin was already full of weeds, but he could vaguely see that it was once a city.
