Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 286
Under the sunshine, the 'Golden Dream' exudes golden brilliance, like a moving treasure.

In the captain's room, Edwina stood by the window, looking at the blue sea in the distance.

When they received a message from Gehrman Sparrow last week, the 'Golden Dream' happened to salvage a Quaternary shipwreck in a nearby sea area. Edwina did not hesitate to receive the news. Order the crew to set sail for Bayam.

After a few days of sailing, the 'Golden Dream' has now entered the Rosde Sea.

If there is no accident, they can reach Bayam within three hours.

of course.

Given that Bayam is the capital of the Rorsted Islands, the Church of the Storms and the military each have a demigod sitting in command.Therefore, as one of the pirate generals, 'Vice Admiral Iceberg' would definitely not go directly to Bayam, that would be tantamount to throwing himself into a trap.

Their agreed meeting place was the waters near Simim Island.

The 'Golden Dream' will not dock, but Gehrman Sparrow will find a private boat to find them in the nearby waters.

Suddenly, there was a commotion on deck.

Edwina's light blue eyes flickered slightly, and she cautiously pushed open the door of the captain's cabin and walked to the deck.

At the same time, many pirate crew members on the deck are surrounding outsiders.

Danitz was also a member of the besieging crowd, and asked suspiciously:

"How did you get up here?"

Klein, who is now Gehrman Sparrow, said in a cold tone:

"Teleport."

Hearing the indifferent tone of 'Gehrman Sparrow', Danitz felt a little trembling in his heart.

But soon he realized that there were people behind him to back him up, and he became stiff again, wanting to say some harsh words on the spot.

"It's all spread out."

The sound of boots stepping on the wooden board was heard by everyone along with the cold female voice.

"But the captain..."

Edwina said calmly:
"Return to your posts."

Danitz immediately moved away in dejection, and the others also moved out of the way silently.

But they did not leave, but still gathered on the deck.

Klein nodded lightly, smiled politely and said:

"Good morning, Miss Captain."

"Good morning, Mr. Gehrman." Edwina responded with a smile.

She turned around and led Klein into the cabin, along the dimly lit aisle, through wooden doors, to the brighter second floor, and to the half-open storage room.

Klein glanced inside casually, and the huge black iron key was just casually placed on a wooden table.

Klein was about to reach for it, but Edwina stopped him suddenly, and said in an emotionless tone:
"You said in your letter that Ash needed the key."

Klein withdrew his hand and said frankly:

"Of course he's here."

"Ok?"

A trace of confusion flashed in Edwina's eyes, but the next moment she saw a figure suddenly appearing in front of the table, it was Ash!

Edwina's memory was in a trance for a moment. In the past 1 minute, she seemed to have seen Ember many times——

He and Klein appeared on the deck together, were surrounded by sailors together, and came to the collection room together.

But along the way, she didn't find anything.

Edwina reacted immediately and asked:
"Psychological invisibility?"

"Correct."

Ember simply admitted it.

Although it's only an extraordinary ability of Sequence 6, psychological invisibility is actually very easy to use.

For example, when Klein explored the church on that island, Adam kept driving Psychology Stealth and watched him perform.

If it is a Beyonder with the same sequence as the audience path, if they sit face to face with each other turned on psychological invisibility, they may even ignore each other, and no one can find the other.

And when Edwina found that Ember had turned on the psychological invisibility the whole time, she immediately realized that this might be a trap.

Someone is watching the key, and the journey itself may be a trap.

Edwina suddenly asked curiously:

"What is this key related to?"

Ember briefly said:

"It is the key to open the gates of the giant's court."

"Giant King's Court?"

"The 'Royal Court of Giants' in myths and legends?" Edwina asked back with sparkling eyes.

Ember nodded lightly, expressing her affirmation.

Edwina's eyes suddenly brightened, and she asked:

"The 'Giant Court' is in the Land Abandoned by the Gods?"

Ember let out an 'hmm':
"I'm going to the King's Court of Giants, and I need the help of this key."

"What payment do you need?"

Edwina understood that he was referring to the price of the key, and did not refuse, and calmly replied:

"One pound."

Ember flipped her palm, and took out a stack of banknotes from somewhere.

No more, no less, exactly 5000 pounds.

Klein suddenly asked:
"If you're going to the Land Abandoned by God, do you need a guide?"

He was referring to the little 'sun', and the City of Silver happened to be exploring the Land Abandoned by God.

If the embers are going to the God's Abandoned Land, summoning through the little 'sun' is the best choice.

The City of Silver is familiar with the surrounding environment, and also knows how to get to the Giant King's Court.

With them leading the way, it will undoubtedly be much easier.

At the same time, embers may also help the City of Silver solve some problems that have troubled them for a long time—

For example, take them away from the Land Abandoned by God.

"Guide?"

Ember looked at Klein thoughtfully, then suddenly took out a book bound with parchment.

"This is……"

Klein subconsciously glanced at the book, and there was a line of ancient Feysac on the surface of the dark brown cover:

"Grossel's Travels".

"This is from a submerged shipwreck that has been submerged for 165 years and is still undamaged."

Edwina introduced, "It records a story, a giant named Grossel decided to go to the Frost Kingdom to hunt down the 'King of the North', a powerful frost dragon."

"On the way, he met one by one companions, including female elves, pious ascetic monks, nobles from the Solomon Empire, and soldiers from Loen. The story just progressed to the point where they encountered the 'King of the North' head-on, but suddenly stopped, not to say that there was no , but the next few pages are difficult to open with various methods.”

"And Ash told me that there is a world in this book, but I don't know how to get into it."

Klein immediately understood another meaning of these words:
This travel book originally belonged to Lieutenant General Bingshan, and Ember bought it from her.

As for the saying that this travel book contains a world, this reminds Klein of the painting world.

The world of painting is a world hidden in a painting, and this is a world hidden in a travelogue.

Why did Ember take out this book?
"Grossel?"

An answer immediately appeared in Klein's mind——

The giant named Grossel probably came from the former royal court of giants.

If Ember needs a guide, a giant is undoubtedly the best choice.

Klein asked:

"Have you ever gone in?"

"No."

Edwina also asked curiously:
"Then have you figured out a way to get into it?"

When they sold this travel book to Ember, they agreed that Ember would tell her the mystery in it——

Including the special features of this travel note, and how to enter it.

If there is a chance, Edwina even wants to go in and experience it for herself.

She wants to know how the world in this travel book is different from the world in paintings.

Ember said frankly:
"nor."

"If you want to enter the world in this travel book, you must follow his pre-set rules."

"And I haven't figured out the rules yet, so theoretically there is no way to get in."

"but……"

As Ember said, flames suddenly rose from his palm, engulfing the "Grossel's Travel Notes" in the blink of an eye.

In the blink of an eye, the raging fire completely burned it and melted it into a ball of flames.

"..."

Klein's expression is a little subtle, he burns everything he sees, aren't you afraid of burning out?Burning everything will only kill you!
After a while, the fire gradually died down.

And the 'melted' "Grossel" travel notes gradually returned to its original shape.

When the flames dissipated completely, the travel book lay quietly in the palm of Ember's hand, and it looked like it hadn't changed at all.

But Klein knew that the 'underlying rules' of this travel book had changed.

Klein thought about it and asked:

"How do I get in now?"

He also wanted to go in and have a look.

Ember said succinctly:

"Turn to the last page and be part of the story, any of you want to try?"

"I'll come first."

Edwina took Groselle's travel diary, and without hesitation turned to the last page where the text was recorded——

This page records the story of Grossel and his companions encountering the 'King of the North'.

The following pages could not be opened anyway in the past.

But this time, Edwina easily opened it.

But unexpectedly, the page was blank.

A holy light emanated from the blank pages, instantly covering Edwina.

Her figure first became unreal for no reason, and then disappeared.

Ember looked at Klein and asked:

"What about you?"

"It's all coming..."

Klein shrugged his shoulders, making an action that was extremely inconsistent with 'Gehrman Sparrow'.

Immediately afterwards, he also turned the pages of the book to the next blank page, and his figure gradually became illusory and disappeared.

Ember stood in front of the table, silent for a moment.

Put away the black iron key, and then slowly opened the pages of the book.

Under the shroud of light, his figure gradually faded away.

The collection room is empty, so if someone came to steal the notebook at this time, it would not be difficult.

Quietly, a figure suddenly appeared in the collection room.

It was a priest, wearing a simple white robe, a silver cross pendant, and a priest with a thick pale gold beard.

His expression was warm, and his eyes were as clear and pure as a baby's, and he was calmly watching the travel book.

He shouldn't be here, because it's dangerous, it's tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap.

But he has no choice now.

Although there is nothing wrong with doing nothing, it is just waiting to die slowly.

And even if he did something wrong, it would only make the already bad environment worse——

But how bad could it be?

The priest stretched out his hand, and an invisible force enveloped "Grossel's Travel Notes".

But the next moment, the scene in front of the priest suddenly changed.

It was a white world of ice and snow.

The priest's face changed slightly, he obviously didn't open the book! ——
The gust of wind with ice slag and goose feather snowflakes slapped Klein's face and body, making his body tense involuntarily and trembling slightly while looking at the surrounding environment.

"It's... so cold..." He almost uttered obscenities, confirming that he was in a world of ice and snow with extreme visibility.

He originally thought that the damp and cold winter in Backlund was the most terrifying, but now he finally understands that the absolute low temperature and the knife-like gust of wind are a deadly combination, and even he who is already at Sequence 5 can't stand it.

Klein looked around, but found no figures of Edwina and Ember, nor any traces such as footprints.

They clearly entered this world with their front and back feet, but their landing points seemed to be completely different.

So, where should he go now?

After thinking for a while, Klein decided to divination.

Of course, divination is not just a matter of divination. Divination requires a medium.

For example, if he wants to divination about Edwina's location, he needs to use something related to Edwina as a medium.Such as Edwina's clothes, weapons and even cosmetics.These items are contaminated with Edwina's breath, so they can be used for divination.

But the best way to use it is to use her blood or hair. These things belong to Edwina herself, and divination will be more accurate.

But Klein didn't have any of these, so he couldn't divination about Edwina's location.

However, he has the option of divining the location of the embers.

Thinking about it, Klein took out an embers—

The embers that have been burned to ashes do not have such luxury as blood and hair, and the embers are part of his body.

"The location of the embers."

Klein spoke in a low voice, and put the embers on the top of the cane. He was going to use the 'divination staff'.

The 'Divination Staff Method' is one of the most common divination methods, the same as pendulum divination and dream divination.

It's just that the original and most practical use of the "divination staff" is to find objects, and only "seers" can use it to find people.

The result came out quickly. Klein didn't hesitate. He stepped on the thick snow, quickly walked through the raging wind under the drowsy sky, and divination again from time to time to adjust his direction. After all, the embers would not wait for him in place.

After walking hard for nearly an hour in the heavy snow, Klein held down his hat and held his cane. According to the revelation of divination, he found a mountain peak all the way.

Passing around a huge rock covered with a thick layer of ice, they saw a dark and gloomy cave, with a guarded woman standing at the entrance with an ancient bow and arrow.

This woman has soft, shiny black hair tied into a simple ponytail, and her facial features are very soft, which is different from people from all countries in the Northern Continent.

Wearing a brown vintage hunter coat and trousers, she casts an inspired gaze.

Seeing her slightly pointed ears, combined with the content of "Grossel's Travel Notes", Klein immediately knew her identity:

The first female elf who met the giant Grossel, whose name is unknown.

And to find this elf, he found Grossel.

In other words, he found the right place!
