Chapter 139: The City of Firebirds
Located on the edge of the city, it is a bit old and has a lot of weeds in the garden.
On the table in the center of the hall, there is a photo.
In the photo, there is a pair of men and women. The man is a tall man with a wide shoulder and height that is taller than that of ordinary people, and he also has gray-red eyes.
His face was solemn and his tall hooked nose, but the dark circles that seemed to be excessive fatigue made his temperament somewhat deficient.
And at this moment, one hand grabbed the photo frame and covered the photo.
That was a tall man, who was exactly the same as the man in the photo.
He looked at the photo covered, then turned around, looked around for a few circles, and then left the table.
He walked leisurely to the door, then raised his palm and a piece of paper the size of a palm appeared in his hand.
The paper carved with complex and dense patterns, like words, or simple depiction of something.
After staring at the paper for a few seconds, he stuffed the paper into the bookshelf in the room, in the cracks on the three-layer books.
After stuffing a piece, he raised his hand again, took out another piece of paper that was as different from his palm, and placed the patterned paper in the gaps in the furniture.
After repeated this process several times, he pulled his collar and finished tidying up his instrument before walking towards the door.
......
Not far from this somewhat old courtyard, there is a brand new apartment room.
A woman in a white windbreaker leaned against the window and glanced at the small courtyard from the corner of her eyes.
And beside her, a man looked back and forth between her and the small courtyard:
"what you up to?"
Hearing his words, the woman in white dusted off the cigarette butts, put out the few cigarettes left in her hand in the ashtray, and then took out another cigarette from her top pocket.
She didn't use a lighter, nor did she use a sunstone fire tool. She just rubbed her fingers at the cigarette butt position, and the flames rushed out and lit the cigarette in her hand.
While she was swallowing the clouds and spitting out mist, her eyes fell on the man:
"Don't be trembling. I've said it many times. We are different from before. The leader has controlled the consul. We have become a member of the flame guard. We can act as a policeman and are no longer the targets of being pursued."
She said, her eyes falling on the cottage.
"However, the leader attaches great importance to this matter."
The man seemed to have been immune to her words, but he said with a look of alertness:
"Since the Heavenly Ladder fell and hunted the black snake, the leader has never had this situation again. Do you understand?"
"Of course I understand."
The woman's expression is leisurely and has a strange sense of laziness:
"The giant who seized the fire died, the black snake who consumed the fire was dead, and the hunting dogs who hunted the fire never appeared again. Now, the only fire thieves are left with us "strange birds."
As many families know, the woman revealed traces of his familiar names:
"The fire eater has never appeared again after the incident of the Heavenly Ladder, and disappeared with the 'Sun God'."
The light from the window fell on half of her cheek, making her look even more enchanting:
"Now, is there anything else that can threaten us?"
This sentence made the man frown again:
"you--"
"Okay, okay, it's better to work harder than to take that effort to correct me."
She raised her head and covered her left eye's hair swayed with the movement, and shocking wounds spread throughout the upper left part of her face, including her eyes.
He can also understand the reason.
When the huge fire beast appeared, when the monster that seemed to be the "Sun God", it completely lost its power, as if it had become an ordinary person.
That kind of sense of gap is extremely uncomfortable for those who have experienced powerful power.
Moreover, in that case, they are indeed like ordinary people, facing crises that ordinary people cannot solve and cannot handle.
The metal that could have been burned out with flames and melted and destroyed, stripped away, could easily tear their bodies open.
Plus...
The only two of the strange birds that were acting together were left.
Fire thieves are not omnipotent.
The man knows that she is fearing, she is afraid.
Even the leader had to repeatedly remind her of the goal of paying attention to it, for her, perhaps it had been covered with a layer of color as on the staircase of the Kingdom of Heaven.
The man shook his head.
But it is undeniable that this time, they are facing difficult enemies, but there should be no problem with the leader.
But, if there is no problem, it is just the whole plan. As a member of the strange bird, they are not sure.
He also sighed in his heart.
Since appearing a month ago, there have been few clues left. If he hadn't seen the leader kill the Black Snake with his own eyes, he would have even suspected that the target this time was the Black Snake.
It was only after they had heard and summarized the news from informants arranged by them in various cities that they realized that the goal had come to this city.
Since the incident twelve years ago, the leader has controlled the surrounding areas centered on the city. All the information collected by the "giant who seized fire" Tamery in ancient times was constantly gathered by them under the command of the leader.
Only the descendants of the ancient Sun Dynasty were able to become fire thieves.
Originally, both the leader and him knew a little, but they just thought they were descendants of the royal nobles.
However, they learned about Tamori's speculation about ancient dynasties from various texts collected by Tamori later.
The source of power of all fire thieves comes from the "Sun God". They all know this, but in fact, it was only after the junction twelve years ago that they learned that the power of fire thieves comes from the power prayed from the Sun God in the ancient Sun Dynasty.
And recently, they have received further news when they are constantly searching this target.
Prophet, priest, priest.
It turns out to be a double reference.
The apostle who stole the power of the Sun God, and the priest who stole the power of the Sun God.
......
"In legend, after the arrival of the apostles, they were unwilling to return to the sky, and they lived on the priests and reproduced in the kingdom of mankind."
“Yes, is that true?”
Tris couldn't help but regret when he heard the description of Miss Salina, who had a male voice.
Why did she promise others so easily to follow others to come to such a place?
But is this myth true?
Suddenly he said that he was a descendant of the prophet.
He also said that the descendants of the priests could control the flames, but they were searching for the descendants of the prophets and the priests.
You must cooperate with the descendants of the priest to fight against the descendants of the priests, and the method is to hold a ceremony to ask the apostles of God to come again to fight against the descendants of the thieves.
