Nangong Sanba's words reminded Hao Ren, and he immediately turned to Vivian: "By the way, do you know who else might know the information of this shadow?"
”"At least if this is to survive the age of mythology......
Vivien thought for a moment, "I ask Hesperith?"
”Hao Ren nodded immediately: "Hurry up and ask, hurry up and ask-you should leave her phone over there." ”"It's an international call again."
Viviant sighed distressedly, reached for her phone, and dialed Hesperith.Vivien hadn't contacted the "Goddess of Dusk" for a long time since the last time they had left the Athenian Sanctuary, but she had left behind their modern contact methods in case they needed them, and she didn't expect them to come in handy in this situation.However, after the phone was dialed, no one answered, and Vivien looked up suspiciously: "She doesn't seem to have the phone." ”Lily: "Do you know any other ancients?"
”"I only have her phone number......
"Vivien scratched through the phone address book, "the rest are Hethanna and a few juniors, the number of ancients on the side of the Athenian sanctuary is not much, and I don't know the others." ”"Then let's fight later," Hao Ren sighed, "or let Heather Anna help you pass the word." ”As soon as he finished speaking, Vivien's mobile phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID was Hesperith."
Hello?"
Vivien quickly switched it on and switched to an outside play, so everyone could listen, "Hesperith?
”"Vivien?
I didn't expect you to take the initiative to call someone," Hesperius's voice sounded a little tired, but she was still happy with the call from an old friend, "I was in a meeting just now, and I didn't turn on the ring—those guys don't know where they learned it, and they ask for their phones to be muted like humans do when they are in a meeting." ”Hao Renxin said that the old monsters in the Athenian shelter lived quite modernly, while Vivian was a little curious: "Meeting?
Oh yes, you're one of the Elders of the Sanctuary too.Let's not talk about this for a while, I'm going to ask you something, do you know a monster that looks like a shadow?
”"Shadows?"
Hesperith's voice suddenly raised, I don't know if it was an illusion, Hao Ren heard a trace of nervousness from the other party's tone."
To be exact, it's a kind of thing parasitic in the shadows, two people on our side have been attacked, and that thing ......"
Vivien told the other party the information on her side at the moment, and described the form of the shadow in detail, "It's that kind of thing, it should be from our era, do you have an impression?"
”"You're talking about the Shadow of Chaos!"
Hesperith's tone was really not quite right, "I didn't expect them to run to you, who was attacked?"
What's going on now?
Is it under control?
”"The shadows have been resolved, but it took a little effort," Vivien picked up some clues in Hesperith's tone, "You say they're 'running to me'?"
Did you find out about the situation over there?
”Hesperius lowered her voice, as if she was in some public place, to prevent irrelevant people from hearing this information: "It is this matter that a few of our ancient people met just now to discuss, and the Ancatero family in South America is probably in trouble......
Are you interested in this matter?
If you do, it's best to come to the Athenian sanctuary in person, this time it's not easy, and there are many old families who have sent representatives. ”Vivien originally wanted to mention that she might have something to do with those dark shadows, but after hearing Hesperith's words, she swallowed her words back directly, and directly agreed, "Okay, let's go over immediately." ”After hanging up the phone, she muttered thoughtfully, "It turned out to be the Ancatero family......
I said I remembered that there was a special person in their name. ”"Okay, okay, don't keep emphasizing the memory of a word that you can remember," Hao Ren waved his hand for Vivien to uncover the topic, "Then let's leave for Athens immediately."
Lao Wang, you two come along, you have been exposed to that kind of shadow, and you have some experience.Everyone else just stays at home......
Lily, you don't have to raise your hand, I know I'll take you. ”The data terminal had recorded the coordinates of Athens, so it didn't take much effort for everyone to go to Hesperius this time, and after a brief preparation for going out, Haoren, Vivien, Lily, and the father and daughter of Itzhax stepped into the portal to Athens.When the group came to the disguised antique shop at the entrance to the shelter in Hesperis, as expected there were no outsiders around, Hao Ren noticed that the entire street on both sides of the shop was shrouded in a strange thick fog, and the buildings beside the road looked hazy and swaying in the fog, and it seemed that Hesperius had turned on some kind of setting to disperse idlers, and the door of the shelter was closed."
You're coming so fast?"
Hesperith's voice drew Hao Ren's attention back, the "Goddess of Dusk" seemed to sense that someone appeared in her magic detection area, accompanied by an orange light, she suddenly emerged from the thick fog, looking at Vivien and the others with a surprised face, "I thought you wouldn't be here until at least tomorrow." ”Vivien stepped forward to greet her old friend and explained a little: "We teleported directly from the space.Let's not talk about this, the shelter is already under martial law?
Is the situation so serious?
”Hesperius frowned and nodded slightly: "The situation is complicated.Let's talk about it first, there are two more old guys, and the people inside are starting the second round of discussions. ”As she spoke, she opened a special path to the shadow layer, but before Hao Ren and the others were about to walk in, she stopped everyone: "Wait a minute, I'm going to check them one by one......
Your shadows. ”Hesperius said as he carefully observed the shadow behind Hao Ren and his party, and his attitude couldn't help but think of the quarantine personnel who were in charge of guarding the quarantine area after the outbreak of the virus crisis.Seeing her cautious attitude, Vivien couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that there is already a shadow infiltrating the shelter?"
”"Wiped out in the shadow layer, but almost ran in," Hesperith said casually, "Alright, let's go inside." ”The group was finally let go, and led by Hesperius, they crossed the heavily guarded shadows and finally arrived at the familiar Athenian sanctuary after a long walk.This mysterious city in another dimension was severely damaged by the witchers a year ago, and the traces of that great war can still be seen today.The Behemoth Shadow Demon Castle on the side of the city is still in ruins, and the Heatherian Mad Demon Force completely destroyed the place with high-altitude bombardment, and since the Shadow Demon has been expelled by this sanctuary, no one has rebuilt the castle at all.In the half-ruined area around the old Bessemoth family's land, some new flags could be seen flying high, Hao Ren didn't know them, but he could still think of what these things meant: the small forces of the Shadow Sanctuary should have finished reuniting and dividing the territory.However, the group did not have much opportunity to take a good look at the rebuilding of the shelter, and Hesperius was in a hurry, and she quickly led the group to a large council chamber in the middle of the city."
This council chamber was rebuilt after the witcher attack," Hesperith briefly explained where they met today, "Bessemoth's rebellion reminded several families of the serious problem of division within the sanctuary, so the council chamber was rebuilt, at least formally, to re-establish the ties between the various family forces.The patriarchs of several large families are here today, as well as representatives from other shelters, Vivien, several of whom are your old friends. ”Vivien scratched her head, "Really......
Well, I don't think I can think of a few. ”Hesperius knew that Vivien was forgetful, so he didn't say anything, but opened the door to the council chamber.As soon as the door opened, Hao Ren heard a middle-spirited voice inside say loudly, "......
You have to check the situation, the events of the Ancatro family must have something to do with the witchers!
”Hao Ren and Vivien subconsciously glanced at each other, and immediately walked inside.The semi-circular chamber was brightly lit and magnificent, but there were only a dozen people sitting next to the round table in the center.Vivian: When they suddenly broke in, the dozen or so people were discussing things, and they looked up in surprise when they heard the movement, and then a cheerful voice sounded first: "Lord Vivian, have you come to see me!?"
”Vivien shuddered, and subconsciously took two steps back: "Oops......
Forget that this bear child is also the patriarch of the big family. ”(To be continued.) )
