Chapter 485 - The Forgotten Soldiers
This cave reminds her with the beast lair at the ancient tomb she stumbles upon once the different is the smell of cadavers inside this cave is not as awful as the ancient tomb, perhaps because this cave is frozen like a refrigerator so the air is less pungent but it still sends a shiver to her bones because the piles are much more than the ancient tomb.
Girsha burst out from Lory's c.h.e.s.t, he flew in a circle to examined the place, they need to find the way out from here immediately.
"Are you hurt, you still feel cold?" he c.a.r.e.s.ses Lory cheeks with his thumb, he can't stop worry for her.
Lory chuckles "I'm fine, you know this isn't my first time" she patted Zhao Li Xin had softly.
He sigh heavily, he doesn't should he feel relief or worry for her. his Princess is way too mischievous. He holds her hand again "Let's go, maybe Girsha find the way out…" he leads lory to where Girsha flew.
"Wait, I think I found something!" Lory picks up a small ring from the ground "Look, my first loot…In this world though" she shrugs then shows the ring to Zhao Li Xin.
"Not bad, you find spatial ring" Zhao Li Xin stroked her head dotingly.
"Really!" she just found out how expensive spatial ring is, if she pawns it she will get a lot of money, just like other people Lory isn't hated to gain something for free even though she has no idea what she would do with the money afterward, maybe she would buy an expensive wedding gift for Yang Xin Ying since she misses her wedding.
"Hey, can you break the matrix and see what inside it?" Lory nudged his arms.
"Sure, he clenches his hand on the ring as he closes his eyes, suddenly the ring explodes.
Lory flabbergasted "You broke the ring!" Lory can't believe her eyes.
Zhao Li Xin frown "Eh, sometimes this is happening….don't be sad I can make you another spatial ring" he worries Lory would angry at him so he quickly appeased her.
Lory squint her eyes towards him 'Then is not FREE anymore' she w.h.i.n.es to herself.
The ring scattered to dust on Zhao Li Xin's hand a pile of papers appears. Lory got curious then she took one of the paper, she read the content on the paper then her expression turns gloomy.
"This the letter for this person family…" the more she read the more she becomes despondent. Lory took another letter from Zhao Li Xin's hand, she only read a few letters but it's enough to bring tears in her eyes.
Zhao Li Xin took the letter from Lory as he read the content he let out heavy heaved "At least we know the truth" he rarely aware with other people misery, he never pity or demeaning them, he has always been apathetic with other people but when he read the content of the letter somehow he feel a slight pang in his heart because the content f the letter is the last word of the husband to his wife.
"My dear wife, it's already three months since we try to subdue the mystical Beast, many people had died. Our Leader even hires mercenary soldiers, pirates even common thug to fight with us because we lose too many people, I wonder why our Lord I so obsessed to take over this mountain?"
"My dear wife, it's almost six months and we don't think we will win this fight, our Lord becomes desperate because he lost too much and he sacrifices everything, I feel disappointed but at least I can come home now, I miss u"
"My dear wife, something happen last night, a meteor suddenly fall from the sky and the blast weakens the mystical Beast, our Lord best friend Master Chen have and idea to create a weapon from the meteor if that's not enough our lord decides to created a cage to trap the beast, this will be our last resolution, we all hopeful, but I'm sad I have to postpone my return"
"My Dear wife, tomorrow our master will be sending us to trap the Beast, although we have the sacred weapon from the meteor, however, it won't be easy to hold back the beast. Our Lord said they will reward us handsomely after we finish subdue the beast, I'm happy I finally able to give the life you deserved"
"My dear wife, we finally able to push the beast on the cage and we are able to put the leash on it, but we also trapped with it. That da*n Lord close the exit and trapped us here. It's been more than two weeks, we start getting hungry, some of our brothers become crazy from the fright, I'm afraid too. Writing to you is the only thing that keeps my sanity. My wife, I don't think I could get home, I'm sorry"
Lory's eyes turn red and misty, she knew the pain for saying goodbye to the person she loved the most, her heart shuddered as she remembers her own experience, she let out a long sigh to calmed herself then say: "Let's keep these letter, maybe we can find his family later"
"Yes," Zhao Li Xin answer briefly, he stores all the paper to his spatial ring then he hugs Lory and stroke her head "Don't worry, I see the name of the soldier, if his family still remain, I will find them. We will give these letters to his descendant so don't be sad" he coaxed her with a gentle voice.
Lory wrapped her hands on his waist "You so nice…" she quietly said while resting her cheek on his broad c.h.e.s.t.
"Just for you…" he mutters.
"GUYS!" Girsha holler surprised them.
Lory and Zhao Li Xin look at each other for the second, they released their hug from each other than jog towards Girsha, they found the bird floating in front of the ice wall.
"Something is there…" Girsha pointing at the wall with his wing.
Lory lean forward to look closer of the ice wall then she saw something behind the ice is like a carved of something but because it's cover with thick ice it's become unclear, Lory raised her hand as she touches the cold wall she felt something drawn her, warm energy that feel very familiar.
"I….i can feel trinity fragments" Lory's eyes bulged as she said in low voice.
"Yes, I can feel it too…" Girsha was elated, more fragments meaning the day she finally released from cursed is not too far ahead. Soon they will free!
Lory stares at the wall with indescribable looks then she looks at Zhao Li Xin "Can you break the ice?"
"I can, but it will attract the owner of this lair" he worriedly said.
Lory look down while pinching her chin as she pondering then she lifts her head "I have an idea, you break the ice first"
"Okay, but you need to take a cover, here, use this for created protection array around you" he handed yellow crystal in a diamond shape on Lory's hands, "Pierce it to the ground near you" he explains.
"Okay," Lory nod.
Together with Girsha and the little cub she stands thirty feet from Zhao Li Xin when she sure she is far enough from him she pierce the crystal to the ground then a transparent bubble envelop her like a giant bubble. After he's sure Lory is inside the protective array he gathers the Qi on his arms, the flame ignited cover his body with blazing fire.
Zhao Li Xin make long-distance fist toward the ice wall, the fire from his hand hit the ice wall the collision make a sound like a bomb explosion, the icicle from the ceiling are falling because the heavy impact, when the giant icicle fall above her the protective array reacted and the icicle shattered to pieces when it touches the protective array barrier.
Lory covers the little cub out of reflex and Girsha cover Lory with both his wings, he trusts Zhao Li Xin array but some habit is not easy to kill. He protects Lory just like he always does.
After a while everything becomes quiet, the ground is cover with shattered ice and falling ice pillar. Lory sigh in relief when she and her friend is completely unharmed inside the protective array, Lory admiration to Zhao Li Xin increased to another level.
'My husband has too much O.P!'
[Lory look] Girsha snapped her from her daze.
Lory lift his head, the thing that hides behind the ice is not just a wall but it's a giant door, it's almost eighty feet higher and fifty feet wide, it's a curved arch double door made from dark grey stones just like a wall, if not because the carved on the wall she wouldn't know that they were a door in the wall.
"What animal carved on the wall?" Lory agape as she saw the giant carved of a beast with a head shaped like a wolf and large muscular body like tiger, and there's a horn on the beast forehead and long thick tail.
"That thin.g on the wall…." Lory stares at the wall with astonished expression.
"The first kind," Girsha calmly said
Girsha burst out from Lory's c.h.e.s.t, he flew in a circle to examined the place, they need to find the way out from here immediately.
