Chapter 160 God's Call
"who are you?"

Outside the cemetery, a middle-aged elf walked out, and he watched Norn and his party warily.

Norn turned his head and felt awkward when he saw the real elf.

On the contrary, Casas, the former prime minister's son, was the first to react.

"We are... three-eyed ape-men."

Casas saluted,
"I am Casas of Ibia. We came from far away Aga just to see the Holy Mountain."

Casas' polite demeanor quickly aroused the elf's favor.

The elves looked at the group of people. Their accents sounded very strange. They were very different from the orthodox Logos accent, but they could barely understand them.

His pointed ears twitched, and then he said in surprise:
"Are you three-eyed apes? I'm Rambosy. Nice to meet you."

"Yes, you... are you really an elf?"

Casas asked.

The others looked at the middle-aged elf in shock and curiosity.

Although the stone slaves have the blood of elves, they have never seen real elves.

Lambert shrugged, nodded and said:
"Yes, we are elves, and this is our holy place."

"Holy place?"

"We didn't settle here a long time ago."

Lambert looked around at everyone, and then slowly said:
"Most of us settled in Nus, and only a very small number of Logos will be stationed here. And I have been looking after the cemetery for my family all these years."

At this time, Norn asked:
"Are you... a descendant of Doriath?"

Lambert nodded and said:

"Yes, you are three-eyed ape-men, you must have heard of my ancestors."

Everyone nodded.

Rambosi pointed to the mountain not far away and asked:

"Are you going to the mountain to offer sacrifices?
Having said that, the three-eyed ape-man who came to make a pilgrimage... I have never seen it before. "

Norn certainly knew why.

There are few three-eyed ape-men who believe in the Lord. Moreover, according to Slaer, the God of Mystery and Kagaus, the God of Prophecy, concealed the existence of the ancient kingdom of elves.

However, Norn didn't explain much, just said:
"Please take us to the mountain side."

Lambert didn't ask any more questions, and directly led everyone to the mountain.

Along the way, Norn and his party saw more elves. They looked at the appearance of those elves curiously, and those elves also looked at their prophecy eyes curiously.

Under the leadership of Ramboxi, everyone came under the mountain.

Norn approached slowly, the ancient altar on the mountainside.

The altar had been honed for a long time, and traces of peeling stone flakes and tiny scratches could be seen everywhere. Norn approached slowly, and when the altar was completely presented in front of him, the young man knelt down and folded his hands together.

The stone slaves who walked all the way sat down on their knees, clasped their hands together, and prayed in a low voice.

After a long time, Norn slowly stood up from the ground, with his mouth open, breathing in the cold wind halfway up the mountain.

Norn looked to the side of the altar, which was an ancient mural.

The mural was very similar to the mural in the Great Temple of the Kingdom of Aga. The figure on the mural was of course the Prophet Yar, and Norn could recognize it.

After praying in front of the altar and observing the murals, Norn suddenly felt a little bit confused.

I returned to my lost hometown, regained my faith, and everything I expected has been achieved, so I should feel fulfilled.

However, I always feel like something is missing.

Norn turned his head, and for some reason, his eyes fell on the top of the mountain.

There is light on the top of the mountain.

Norn held his breath.

Suddenly, the surrounding environment seemed to slow down, suddenly quiet, and even the free wind became stagnant, Norn stared closely at the brilliance on the mountain top.

at some point.

Norn seems to have heard God's call.

"My child, you come up the mountain."

The voice was indistinct, and it was almost fleeting, like an unreal catching shadow, but like a temple of faith, it was instantly established in Norn's mind, and it would be immortal in the future, arousing a wave of dedication day and night.

Norn unconsciously walked up the mountain road slowly.

The boy just took a few steps.

The elf priest beside the altar stepped forward and grabbed him.

"What are you doing? You can't go up the mountain."

Norn turned his head, he temporarily suppressed his excitement.

"Guest, only prophets and kings can go up the mountain."

The elf priest said sternly,

"This is the sacred tradition of our elves."

"Uh-huh……"

Nuo En responded one after another, and slowly backed away, his eyes still not leaving the mountain top.

...........................

At night, the elves arranged a temporary residence for Norn and his party.

Norn tossed and turned on the straw carpet, not falling asleep.

When the night was so dark that it couldn't be darker, Norn slowly got up from the ground.

He sneaked out of the residence, and then looked at the mountains not far away.

Norn looked at the top of the mountain for a long time, and in the lonely night, the brilliance seemed even more holy.

He recalled, standing at the altar, the fleeting call.

"Norn."

It was Casas' voice.

Norn turned around and said:

"You startled me, little master."

Casas smiled, walked to his side, and pointed to the high mountains in the distance.

"Do you want to go up the mountain?"

At the altar halfway up the mountain, Casas probably guessed the boy's intentions from Norn's distracted eyes.

Norn nodded solemnly.

"I want to go up the mountain. I seem to have heard God's call."

Casas asked:
"Not hallucinations or auditory hallucinations?"

Norn said slowly:
"No, I think...that's really a god, I can't hear you wrong."

Casas said:

"Okay, let's go together, don't call anyone else, or the elves will be alarmed."

Norn nodded, Kasas was right.

So, the two of them took advantage of the early hours of the night and slowly headed towards the mountain.

Norn and Kasas had already experienced hardships in the desert, and they were extremely sensitive to wind and grass, so they easily bypassed the night elves, and finally came to the high mountain quietly.

They raised their heads together, and the majestic and towering mountains stood in front of them, and the boundaries of the mountains were blurred in the night.

A gust of cold wind hit from the hillside, and the two of them shivered.

It seems that these few days are not a good time for mountain climbing, the cold wind is blowing hard, chopping the mountains like a knife blade.

Casas looked at Norn hesitantly.

Norn's hands trembled, and then slowly said:
"I must go up the mountain today...I can't wait any longer."

Casas didn't stop him, but followed Norn firmly.

Regardless of the raging cold wind, the two embarked on a mountaineering journey.

Right now,

As ever, Yar and wise men climbed mountains to ask for answers about death.
