Chapter 346 339. Avalon

Alexander on the side also shrugged helplessly. Who knows what kind of madness the old captain had, anyway, it wasn't the first time.

The girl next to her was so frightened by Xuan Hao just now that she still hadn't recovered yet, so Alexander had no choice but to help the old man kneeling on the ground by himself.

After the old man returned to his seat, Xuan Hao spoke slowly.

"Okay. Now can you tell me everything you know?"

"Of course it's okay, what can't be said about this?" Vincent smiled, "No one is not interested in that thing, since you want to know, then I should know everything, because I also want to unlock this secret !"

He put away his smile and motioned to Alexander, who immediately led the girls out of the room. As the two sea-blue doors closed, all the secrets were sealed in this small room.

Vincent led Xuan Hao into the dark room of the room, and walked slowly to the wall. On the wall was a painting covered with a black cloth.

His trembling hand held a corner of the black cloth, and slowly pulled it down.

With the removal of the black cloth, his eyes seemed to be shining, and his whole body seemed to be full of vitality.

It was a painting, a blue sea and a blue sky, with strange clouds flowing in the sky, and a mysterious light falling from the sky, covering the lonely island in the middle of the sea.

The center of the island is covered with towering trees, and the periphery is semicircular, as if it were a cut open ancient Roman arena, but the seats where the audience should have been placed are one after another stone caves, and each stone cave is placed With a coffin.

On the sea outside the island, a lone boat was slowly approaching. There was also a coffin on the bow, and a figure tightly wrapped in a white robe stood there. The face of the figure could not be seen clearly, like a god of death transporting dead souls. It is also like an angel who came to the world to guide the soul.

"The head of state said that this is a real island," Vincent observed Xuan Hao's reaction, "The name of this island in myth...is Avalon!"

Xuan Hao looked at the painting quietly. Avalon's legendary ideal land far away from the world is also the land of the dead.

In Celtic mythology, after the death of the great king Arthur, the body took a boat to Avalon, and after arriving there, he would rise from the dead.

Time stands still on Avalon because it is eternal, and it is both the island of death and the island of life.

There is no way to verify the myth, but the characteristics of Avalon and Nibelungen cannot be said to have nothing to do with it, but they are exactly the same.

"It really does exist," Xuan Hao looked at Vincent calmly, "That's why I'm looking for it. I know you're looking for it too, so I came to you."

"Yes, yes! Yes!" Vincent smiled with tears in his eyes, "Finally, someone finally recognized me! Do you know that since the death of the Führer, everyone thinks I'm a lunatic! They I don't believe it at all, I don't believe in the existence of Avalon!"

"Okay, I didn't come here to hear your emotions." Xuan Hao said, "All I want to know is clues about this island."

"Of course! Of course I will tell you!" Vincent couldn't be more excited, "But before that, I want you to promise me one request."

"What request?" Xuan Hao frowned.

"Do you know why I'm looking for this island?" Vincent asked.

"Resurrect your Lord Führer?"

"That's right! That's right! You really understand me!" Vincent burst into tears, "Now I finally believe it, great emperor! I thought that everything in that novel was false, but you and the description in the novel Omnipotent, Omnipotent, Omnipotent!"

"Eh..." Xuan Hao was a little embarrassed, didn't he think that Finger would write him so awesomely?He also said that he would settle the score with Fingal later, well, let him go first.

"That's right, my dream is to find it in my lifetime! Then resurrect the Lord Führer!" Vincent was about to jump up excitedly, "As long as you promise to help me, I believe I will be able to succeed! You are the blood of the ancient gods, then The golden pupils are like divine light! I have seen your majesty just now, and it is exactly the same as the description in the novel!"

"..."

Xuan Hao silently looked at the old man approaching madness in front of him, should he tell him the truth?There is no place where people can be resurrected, it's just a country of the dead, and those buried in those coffins are probably dead dragons, right?

He shook his head slowly, and finally decided not to tell him, because he felt that the old man's old heart should not be able to bear such a blow, and after telling the old man the truth, he might not get the clues he wanted.

"I don't know if you can resurrect your head of state there." Xuan Hao said blankly, "But if you tell me the clues, I can take you there with me."

"Thank you so much!" Vincent was so grateful that he wanted to kneel down again.

This made Xuan Hao feel a little uneasy about his conscience, but there was no other way, he had to go to that place, so he couldn't tell the old man the truth. I don't know what the old man will do when he knows the truth.

"Do you know its approximate location?"

"I probably know!" Vincent said excitedly, "The reason why I sail in this sea is because I have seen it before! I saw this small island in the water reflected by the aurora, it is a real pure land !Even in this extreme north, it still looks alive! But... I can't get there!"

"Aurora?" Xuan Hao thought for a while, "Then where is this ship going now?"

"It's the place where I saw Avalon!" Vincent said. "Since that time, every time the aurora appears, I will come here to look for it. I have seen Avalon more than once, but no Being able to get there at one time...it's like a holy place that is beyond reach. I was desperate and felt that I might not be qualified to go there. It's really great that you can help me!"

"Don't feel...you just don't have the qualifications." Xuan Hao sighed, "You should also know Avalon in the myth, right? That's the place where King Arthur went after his death. Not living people can go there. Normal humans can go there. If you can’t go there, and you may not be able to resurrect your head of state, are you still sure you want to go?”

"Sure!" Vincent said with a firm gaze, "I'm already a person who is going to die, so there's nothing to be afraid of! As long as I can get there, I can accept any result!"

"Well."

Xuan Hao didn't say any more, he persuaded and persuaded, since the old man is still so persistent, he has no choice but to pay attention to protect his safety when the time comes.

"I'll take you there when you arrive at your destination."

Xuan Hao turned and left.

It has been a year since he returned from Japan, during this year he has been by Xia Mi's side, and he has arranged everything before setting out to come here.

Xia Mi once tried to stop him, because Xia Mi couldn't accept what he was going to do now, but in the end he still couldn't hold back.

Back in the cabin hall, Xuan Hao continued to drink, waiting for the time to come.

"Merry Christmas!" Everyone at the bar cheered with champagne.

"Hope Santa throws me a sexy fiancé down the chimney! I hope he can play the cello, and most importantly, be handsome!" The girl made a Christmas wish, but for some reason, she kept looking at Xuan Hao glanced at him.

Xuan Hao threw the cello box aside expressionlessly, saying that labor and management would not play the cello.

The music blared in the hall, the familiar Christmas carols played in the streets and alleys every Christmas.

The boy opened the velvet jewelry box by candlelight, and the diamond ring reflected the bright light. The girl screamed, and the boy took advantage of the situation and knelt down to propose to her.Not everyone boarded this ship for gambling. Going to the Arctic Circle for Christmas is a romantic thing in itself, but I just hope their ending will not end like the Titanic.

Xuan Hao suddenly remembered the ring he was still carrying with him, which was the engagement ring he had always wanted to give to Xia Mi but could not find a suitable opportunity to give it.

It's a pity that I couldn't bring Xia Mi here, but he can only walk this journey alone.

He quietly looked at the happy people in the hall, the world is very good and happy, but he is out of tune with the world.Because he is not from this world...

Xuan Hao swallowed the warm wine slowly, and there was a lot of taste in his mouth that shouldn't be in the wine, but fortunately, it turned into sweetness in the end, bringing a little warmth.

He suddenly remembered that he didn't know how to drink in the first place. What kind of old man insisted on dragging him to drink?

Santa Claus has started to deliver gifts, and most tourists can open gambling tables to join in the fun.

The wine in the glass was also finished, Xuan Hao looked at the extra wine glass in front of him and smiled, got up and left.

He was moving in the opposite direction from the crowd, and Christmas carols sang in unison came from behind him.

He shook his head slightly, realizing that he still couldn't blend in with these people.

The singing carried him away like a tidal wave, like a hand behind his back pushing him forward.

"Go, boy, I don't know if the decision you made is right or wrong, but there is no need to look back on what a man decides."

Xuan Hao suddenly remembered that stubborn old man who knew he would die but still didn't look back.

So he didn't look back, just like Master said, once the decision is made, there is no turning back.

When he reacted, he was already standing on the highest point of the ship, holding a long gun in his hand.

The icy cold wind howled in his ears, but Xuan Hao didn't seem to feel the cold, he just stood quietly on a high place and looked at the light that emerged in the distance.

Many people have come out on the deck one after another, because this scene is so rare, there are hundreds of light blue aurora hanging under the dark sky, unpredictable, like a long skirt that can cover the entire sky, Its edges are trimmed with light teal silk.

The glass behind Xuan Hao was photographed. When he looked back, it was old Vincent who was shouting excitedly. Although he couldn't hear what he was shouting through the glass, he could probably guess it because he saw it too. , not only him, everyone on board saw it.

In the direction where the YAMAL was sailing, an island appeared in the distant aurora.

It's exactly the same as the one painted in the "Island of the Dead" painting!
The people on the deck cheered. They not only saw the aurora but also saw the mirage. This journey can be said to be complete.

"Whoa-"

The sound of glass shattering sounded, Xuan Hao shattered the glass in front of him expressionlessly, and lifted Vincent up.

Of course, when the people on the deck followed the prestige, there was no one there.

No one knew how the glass on the high place suddenly shattered, and no one knew that two people were missing from the boat.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

On the ice in the distance, Xuan Hao ran with the old man in his arms. He is a man of faith, and he will do what he promised if he is in a good mood.

It was Vincent in his arms who was laughing.

The old man burst into tears, "O Führer! Great Führer! It is your soul that guides my path!"

This is the closest this old man came to his dream. He saw the power of the man in front of him. Getting closer, he couldn't help crying.

But his body was gradually getting colder, and the extremely cold ice surface was still too exciting for a skinny old man like him.

Xuan Hao ran expressionlessly. He didn't dare to run too fast for fear of breaking the old man to pieces. The aurora in the distance greeted him like an open door.

It was someone welcoming him, someone inside knew he was coming and opened the door.

Vincent is not qualified to come here, if Xuan Hao is not here today, this door will not be open, even if he is seen, no one will be able to enter.

"It's going to be a bit cold next time." Xuan Hao said lightly, "You can get there by enduring it."

"Thank you!" Vincent's trembling voice remained firm.

"boom--"

Xuan Hao pierced through the ice reflecting Avalon with his long spear, and an aurora shined through the cave into the icy sea water.

Here is the entrance, and the aurora is the beacon that guides the direction.This is the way to the Kingdom of God.

Bubbles surround them in all directions, they are sinking, and the whole world becomes silent, as silent as death.The ancient voice echoed in their ears, and the whole world seemed to be leaving them quickly.

The boiling dragon blood in Xuanhao's body raised his body temperature. He was not afraid of the cold, but this rickety old man would freeze to death in such water.

When they surfaced again, what greeted their eyes was the blue sea and the blue sky. Strange colors flowed in the sky, and a mysterious light fell from the sky, illuminating the lonely island in the sea.

The whole world seems to have been secretly replaced by someone, and here is Avalon, to be precise, the country of the dead - Nibelungen.

"It's cold, it's cold, it's cold..." Old Vincent's body trembled and his voice was hoarse.

Xuan Hao gently placed him on the shore of the island, "This is it."

"Thank...thank you!" Vincent thanked with a trembling voice, "Great Emperor, thank you for your willingness to fulfill my wish!"

He stood up with his drenched body hunched over. Originally, he was supposed to be dead. Even under Xuan Hao's protection, it was impossible for this decayed body to survive after soaking in the icy sea water.But I don't know what kind of obsession made him stand up.

"You... can't go back anymore." Xuan Hao sighed and shook his head slightly.

"No, I am very satisfied to be here at the last moment of my life." Old Vincent suddenly became normal, no longer as crazy as usual, "They all laughed at me and said I was crazy, resurrected The old Führer is impossible, I know that! But I'm not crazy!"

"Ah."

"I've been looking for it all my life, do you know?" Old Vincent's voice choked up, "So what if I can't resurrect the old Führer? I just wanted to come here. I never saw that painting, and I decided, no matter what in this life." You have to come here once! What a man decides will never turn back until he dies!"

"I can probably understand..." Xuan Hao didn't say anything, turned around and left quietly.

"Thank you, only you didn't treat me as a lunatic."

Old Vincent's voice was full of vitality and joy, and seemed to be young again.

He stooped and followed behind Xuan Hao, looking at the island that he had been obsessed with all his life. There was a towering tree growing in the center of the island, everything was so real and beautiful.

……

Xuan Hao walked quietly on the road leading to the center of the island. The island is extremely quiet, as long as he doesn't make a sound, it seems that nothing will disturb the tranquility here.

This is the place where the soul rests. The dead are sealed in coffins. Some people bring their souls here and seal them forever.

That's right, a seal.

The beautiful Avalon in mythology is actually a cage here.

The souls of sinful people will be sealed in this eternal place without seeing the light of day. Those who are sealed here are all traitors without exception, they belong to the Dragon Race.

And there is only one person who can seal them here - Odin.

The gods of this world were originally only the World Tree, but the black king Ned Hogg betrayed the World Tree and usurped the god position.

Odin was supposed to protect him with the gift of the World Tree in his hand, but he was defeated.

He has been trying to make amends, but has been unsuccessful, because Ned Hogg is unkillable, and the only thing he can do is to bring Ned Hogg back here to seal it.

"I knew you would come."

In the center of the huge Roman Colosseum, a figure stood quietly waiting here.

Behind the figures are countless coffins in the auditorium.

He is Odin, and this is his place of execution. All the traitors will be defeated by him here, and then sealed in the coffin behind him.

"Then do you know what I'm here for?" Xuan Hao stared at Odin.

"I don't know," Odin slowly shook his head. "But I don't think he came to fight me, right? You have his aura on you, and you are someone he recognizes. There is no reason for us to fight."

"Our goals should be the same."

"Really kill Ned Hogg."

"So I want to make a deal with you." Xuan Hao stretched out Kungunir in his hand.

"Okay." Odin caught the oncoming spear, and slowly opened his one eye under the mask.
