Chapter 20 Chapter Nineteen

D feels like he is flying. It happened so suddenly that he was dragged out by the girl before he had time to think.The opponent's strength was astonishing, a nail at the broken window lattice even tore the cloak behind him. When he realized what had happened, he was horrified to find that there was nothing under his feet.There is no stone floor of the castle, no land or river, just a cloud of wet and cold thick fog, accompanied by the cold wind whistling in the ear, and quickly dispersed, revealing the dark night sky and a twinkling star or two , and then gather again. D is dizzy.He clung tightly to the girl's arm, like a drowning man grabbing the last straw floating on the water.But girls are not straws.Although her slender body seemed to be blown away by the wind - which was true, because they were walking on the wind now.

In the absence of gravity, D cannot maintain his balance.He swayed in the wind like he was drunk, and the girl tried to hold him up.Now they were not falling as fast as before, and he could clearly see the clouds and mist floating around, and the girl's still flustered face that appeared and disappeared in the clouds and mist.But he still wanted to throw up.He swallowed hard, swallowed the heart that had almost jumped out of his chest, and then forced himself to take a deep breath. He did not know how long they had been falling.Maybe it's a few minutes, maybe it's only ten seconds.But he felt as if a year had passed.or longer.

He squeezed his mouth shut, waiting for the moment when he finally landed.But that didn't happen.He remembered that just below the cliff was the Arges River.He tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, waiting for the moment when he was completely soaked by the icy river water.If you're lucky, it's best not to hit any rocks.But that didn't happen either. They are still falling.Penetrating through the thick and icy fog, he fell. keep falling. Now he could see nothing in front of his eyes.The fog was too heavy, and a thick white mist enveloped the entire valley. Odell let out another scream.She let go of her hand suddenly.

D was shocked.He didn't know what happened in the thick fog.He couldn't see anything.He just waved his hands indiscriminately, trying to reach the girl's arm, or a skirt, but failed.Because his downward momentum suddenly accelerated uncontrollably, and then faster and faster.He couldn't hear the wind or see the dense fog. He felt his body had been stretched out of shape, and all his organs had stopped working.When he felt that he was about to die, there was a loud "bang" and he fell to the ground. He felt that all the bones in his body were thrown apart, and his internal organs fell out of order.The severe pain tore his nerves, and the blinding light made him unable to open his eyes.

This is of course not the Arges, for he fell on dry land.But this isn't Bonnelli either.Not even Wallachia, or anywhere in Europe for that matter. When he was able to think, he recalled that when he fell, there were stars shining in the dark night sky around him, and it was still late at night.But at this moment, this place is bright and dazzling, and the green water above his head is surging, splashing bright spots of light on his tightly closed eyelids. He heard the sound of chaotic footsteps, and several people trotted over from a distance, poking him with spears. "It must be a spy!" He heard a strange voice, "Kill him!"

"Wait, he's human!" said another voice. "How can there be humans here?" "Shoot and kill whoever it is!" the first voice emphasized. D forced himself to open his eyes.He saw two men in armor.He was taken aback, and almost thought that the other party was the Janissaries of Turkey, and he had become their prisoner. Until a scale on the opponent's shoulder refracted the familiar iridescence directly into his eyes. In front of him stood two fully armed mermaid soldiers. He looked around incredulously, wishing he could see Odile, but she wasn't here.He only saw a continent wrapped in thick fog, and countless scattered tents were erected on the grass not far away.Outside the camp were busy mermaid soldiers, each of them covered their bodies with large and strong scales, just like the two in front of them.They have weapons in their hands.

"What happened?" he asked involuntarily. He tried to move his limbs, but fortunately, he was not injured.It's just that he remembered that when he came here last time, "The Kingdom Under the Waves" was still a happy and peaceful scene.No one in the street showed their armor.People just wore loose white robes, knights played their harps and offered their roses at maiden windows, and children played and chased each other in gorgeous and spacious white courtyards. But now everything has changed. "War. What else can there be?" The second mermaid soldier escorted him to stand up.

"Just kill him! Why are you talking so much nonsense?" The first mermaid soldier showed his shining spear point, eager to try. "Who are you fighting with?" D couldn't help but ask. "Birds! Who else?" The second man looked him up and down. "Where are you from?" D opened his mouth, he wanted to say "Walachia", but he didn't know if the other party would think it was an enemy station. "I don't know," he finally said. "A place full of fog." "Aren't you from the 'Land of Evergreen'?" The first person stared at him incredulously, "I think you look like a spy."

"I'm not a spy." D said immediately, "I'm just... lost." "I don't believe you." The other party was unmoved, "The order from above is to kill." He raised his spear. D puts his hand on the hilt of his sword.Thankfully, he didn't lose his sword in the fall.But the opponent is a fully armed mermaid warrior.A water elf known for his bravery in the Demon Realm.He took a deep breath. "Vlad?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Is that you? Vlad?" Everyone turned around. A young man walked quickly past the tent.From a distance, he could only see the other party's wavy golden hair shining like brilliant gold in the gap of the helmet.However, as a mermaid warrior, his body is obviously too thin, as if it has been hidden in those thick scales.

When he walked in front of him, the two mermaid soldiers who were on patrol just now immediately lowered their heads.Although the comer is not physically dominant, his position is obviously much higher than theirs. "You are...Theodore?" D barely remembered the other person's name.When Hunyadi brought him here for the first time, they had played against each other on the practice range. "We meet again." Theodore smiled. "My lord, he is a spy of the Wind Clan!" The first mermaid soldier stepped forward and said without compromise. "Believe me, he is absolutely not." Theodore easily pressed down the opponent's weapon with one hand, "Because I know him. He is a dragon knight."
