A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 147. Chapter 147

The mountain god was angry, the earth shook, the mountain shook, and the sky fell apart.

Everyone was frightened for it, and even the most powerful and brave people were helpless, and could only wait for the anger of the mountain god to dissipate and calm down.

After Shulos turned over the crack, he hid with Garlan in a relatively safe place.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the shaking ground to gradually calm down.

Everything that terrible happened in an instant, caught people by surprise, and there was no resistance.

After the ground movement calmed down, the two tensed nerves breathed a sigh of relief, no longer caring about the image, and stretched out their legs to sit on the ground, panting continuously.

At this moment, both of them were covered with dust, and even their hair was gray. Whether it was a beautiful young man or a handsome bard, they seemed to be embarrassed to the extreme at this moment.

Shuros sat on the ground, with his hands on his bent knees, and while taking a few breaths, he glanced at Garland next to him.

The young man’s hand was on the ground, and there were still a few scars on his bare forearm that had been scratched by stones, which were obviously scratched when he jumped over and grabbed him.

He glanced, then lowered his eyes.

Not long ago, the robber was simply drew attention by’beauty’ for a while, and he was careless. He was suddenly attacked by the opponent and pressed under him, unable to escape, before he was beaten by the opponent.

In fact, although he is very poor in close combat, he is very agile, and as long as he is not caught, he can still avoid him.

Therefore, even if Gal did not come to help him, he himself could quickly flip up with his agility, which is why he rushed over to help Galan.

If he consciously didn’t have the ability to escape the crack, he would not come forward.

After all, your own life is more important.

Human nature is like this.

It’s just that Shuros didn’t know.

When this aristocratic young master rushed to grab him, he was like him, thinking that he could retreat all over his body to help him, or… he didn’t think about anything at all?

Shuros thought so deeply, then shook his head, throwing away the thought.

Even if Gal decided to help him because he was able to retreat, it was also very good, and he was already a very trustworthy companion.

Without knowing what Shuros was thinking, Garlan, who had experienced the thrilling scene just now, was still a little empty, sitting on the ground, propping her hands behind her, and leaning her head back and gasping for breath.

Long hair was scattered on his shoulders, the face covered with dust looked dirty, and the whole person looked gray.

As he panted, he looked around at the calm surroundings. At that moment, the scenic spot was covered with gravel and wood, streams were cut off, rocks collapsed, and the flat ground was full of cracks of all sizes.

Especially the gap not far in front of them, it was a full ten meters wide, and it was so dark that it looked like an abyss. Once it fell, it would definitely be a dead end, with no bones left.

Garlan had lingering fears just looking at her.

“Tsk, it’s really bad luck. It’s obvious that someone like me who is sheltered by the goddess Aphrodome has good luck in the past. Why do you always encounter these bad things these days?”

The bard who had eased his breath sat cross-legged on the ground, patted the dust on his body, and grumbled with his head.

For some reason, Gallan was inexplicably guilty when he heard this, so he didn’t say a word.

“Hey, if you move like this, the mountains are cracked, the water is gone, and the scenery is unsightly. The most troublesome thing is that our horses don’t know where they are going.”

Shuros, who was unhappy, complained constantly.

Gallan laughed twice, still not speaking, turned his head and looked around, trying to find the horses that ran away, maybe they were lucky they ran back on their own.

The earth movement had just subsided, and there was still a mess on the ground, with tree trunks broken, rocks collapsing, and the splashing dust resembling thick fog, which made people look too far away.

Garlan looked around, and suddenly saw the shadow of a horse in the dust and mist that had not yet dissipated in the distance.

“Look, our horse is there—”

Gallan raised his finger in that direction, but when he was halfway talking, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

“Uh, no, it seems to be white, not ours… Ah, disappeared… the horse seems a bit strange.”

“White Horse? In the big evening, except for us who can’t enter the city, who else is so boring to enter the mountains at night…”

Shuluos was sitting lazily on the ground and said that, but halfway through the conversation, he suddenly paused.

“White horse?”

He repeated it.

“The white…horse?”

He repeated it again, as if suddenly thinking of something, his expression suddenly became excited.

“I said Gal, you saw a white shadow when you first went up the mountain, isn’t that also the same?”

When Shuros said this, Garland thought about it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: “It seems…it’s a bit like…”

“That’s right!”

Shuros stood up abruptly and looked at Garlan excitedly.

“It’s a unicorn!”

“what?”

Alone…what?

Gallan was a little dazed.

“White, like a horse, erratic… Yes, it must be a white unicorn! As I told you not long ago, the legend of the Tweeul Mountain, the white unicorn will appear the most beautiful in the world In front of the girl!”

Gallan glared at him.

“I am not a girl.”

“Maybe that unicorn looks like me and treats you like a girl?”

“…If the legendary sacred beast looks at the same level as yours, it would be terrible.”

Excited, Shuluos no longer cared about Garlan’s complaints to him.

“In short, this is the case now, we hurried to catch up, maybe we can really see the legendary unicorn!”

Thinking of seeing the legendary holy beast with his own eyes, the bard rubbed his hands excitedly.

He urged Garlan to come, “Quickly, quickly, you can see it, and we will catch up.”

“But the ground movement just happened, aren’t you afraid to do it again?”

Shuros waved nonchalantly.

“Anyway, we are halfway up the mountain. If we really move one after another, we won’t have time to run. There is no difference between going up a mountain and going down a mountain.”

The bard raised his hand and wiped the dust off his cheeks, showing a handsome and confident smile

“I am the most loyal and handsome believer of the goddess Afdomir. The goddess is reluctant to die, and of course she will protect me.”

“…”

Gallan said that he did not want to make any comments on Shuros’s words.

With such a narcissistic believer, the goddess must be very tired.

Although he was speechless for Shuros’s words, Gallan was also very curious about the so-called unicorns in his heart. He hesitated for a while, and he got up at Shuros’s urging, and brought Shuros to the person who saw the white shadow just now. The direction followed.

The white shadow appeared from time to time, disappeared for a while, and then passed by another shadow, but it was always far away from him, and couldn’t catch up.

Gallan and the others stopped and went after them for a long time. When they found out, the sun had risen from the horizon. And the white shadow had completely lost track, and they didn’t know when they were about to climb to the top of the mountain.

“what happened?”

“I don’t know, that white shadow is gone.”

“Did you run away?”

“I don’t know, I can’t see it now anyway…”

“Tsk, I know that unicorns are not so easy to see. Maybe you found out that you are a man, so you ran away.”

Shuros sighed regretfully, and said sadly.

He shook his head and looked around.

“Speaking of it, it seems that this place has reached the big waterfall in the Twyllul Mountain. Because the mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, and there are a lot of beasts, few people can come up here to see the full view of the waterfall.”

He stroked his forehead proudly.

“Of course, these are not obstacles to me. I came up last time and saw the waterfall with my own eyes. The scenery is indeed majestic and it is worth seeing.”

Hearing what he said, Gallan was moved.

“Since it’s all here, take me to see it?”

“It’s okay, it’s here anyway, but I don’t know if the beauty is still there after this landslide.”

Shuros shrugged, turned his head and looked around, judged the direction, and then took Garlan to the location of the great waterfall he remembered.

There was almost no scenery to see along the way, I saw that countless big trees were uprooted, with bare roots | exposed out of the soil, stacked on top of each other. The mud scattered, exposing the rock buried deep below. The rock cracked open, and small rubble rolled all over the place.

The mountain road was already rugged, and if the ground moved a bit, there would be no road at all. Even Garlan and Shuluos, who had good skills, had an extremely difficult walk.

After walking for a while and turning up a low slope, Shuluos inadvertently looked back.

“Huh?” He said a little surprised, “Here you can see the city below.”

The original towering and stacked hillsides and huge trees blocked the view. Even at the top of the hill, you could not see below. This time the ground moved and the tree fell, and the hill in this direction happened to be shaken by a gap. And that gap happened to be facing the direction of the city.

Standing here, Shuros looked down, and through the huge gap, he could see the city of Tweeul at the foot of the mountain.

Garlan looked back, and indeed could see the city at the foot of the mountain.

The ant-like figures in the city come and go, and they look very busy.

“It seems that there must be a lot of casualties in Twyllul City this time.”

Garlan frowned and said.

“That village…”

He remembered the village that he had passed by not long ago, and that village was also within the range of the earth’s movement, and suffered one after another. Those civilians might be even more difficult.

“Don’t think too much, that’s what those powerful and powerful officials should take care of. We little people can’t take care of it, and we don’t have the ability to take care of it.”

Shuros said, turning around and continuing to move forward.

“You better remember that we must not be close to Twyllul City now, or we will be in trouble.”

Gallan nodded obediently and followed.

Probably in order to divide Gallan’s heart, Shuros was still thinking about it as he walked.

“Look at the river that flows down. In fact, this is the river formed by the water from the waterfall. It flows down from the mountain to the city of Twyllul, which is also the most important source of water for the residents of the city.”

This section of the road is actually not very long, but it was too difficult, so it took a little time.

Turning a detour again, my eyes suddenly opened up, and at a glance I saw the white waterfall falling from the cliff in the distance, and the sound of running water.

But what made Garlan strange was that the waterfall looked quite loud, but the sound of the water seemed not as loud as expected.

When he was still trekking forward from the pile of tree trunks and leaves in the back, Shuluos had already jumped up, turned up the low hill in front, raised his hands, and began to sing loudly.

“Ah ah~~ That is the magical work between heaven and earth, the towering Tweelul mountain range, you are high in the sky, in your body, the water of the Tianhe falls from the sky, you are so majestic, you are a miracle in the world… ?”

Shuros’s high-pitched chant suddenly stopped, and the cheerful expression on his face disappeared. He stared forward with a look of surprise in his eyes.

“This…” He seemed to be a little unbelievable about what he saw, “How could it become like this?”

Just as Shuros’ words fell silent, Garlan, who was a step slower, also climbed up.

When he raised his eyes, Gallan was also taken aback.

In the open front, there is a broad mountain, and water rushes down from the top of the mountain.

The wide and huge waterfall leaned down the top of the mountain from high in the sky, and the white flowers made a huge splash of water, which was deafening.

Below the waterfall, there is a wide rock platform that is slightly sunken.

The platform is further forward, and there is another cliff.

And this cliff is much higher than the top of the mountain, almost vertical.

Falling water from this cliff will form an extremely majestic waterfall.

It should be.

But at this moment, there is no magnificent waterfall, only the sparsely oozing water, forming a thin curtain of water on the cliff.

Because of the ground movement just now, the rocks on both sides cracked, and countless rubbles mixed with broken tree trunks and soil rolled down, just blocking the edge of the cliff, and the block was strong, like a dam. .

The rock platform was originally surrounded on three sides, only one side of the cliff allowed the water to flow down to form a waterfall, but at this moment, that side was blocked by the falling rock trunk and turned into a bowl shape.

As a result, all the water flowing down from the mountain peak is contained in this suddenly formed’bowl’, and the water is accumulated, and the more it is stored, the more it is stored.

Shuros thought for a while.

“It’s okay.” He said, “As soon as there is more water stored, the falling rocks and mud can’t hold it, so they are washed away by the water. The big deal is that we will wait a few days, and then we will be able to see the waterfall.”

Garlan looked at the gravel trees blocking the mouth of the cliff.

Indeed, the side of this’bowl’ containing water is not rigid, it is a piece of fragmented pieces, and now it is nothing if there is less water, as soon as there is more water, it will be washed down…

Do not.

and many more.

Water…rocks…rush down…

The water source of the city…

A certain thought suddenly flashed out of his mind, and Gallan shook his heart.

“Schloss!”

He shouted.

At the same time, he looked back abruptly.

At the foot of the mountain, in his line of sight, the seemingly small city is there.

“Wow, suddenly calling so loudly scared me, what to do…”

“Tweeluor city is bad!”

“Ah? What’s so bad about Twyllul City… Uh, wait, this, this is—”

Shuluos, who had been careless, reacted instantly, his face suddenly changed.

Once this large amount of blocked and accumulated water soars to wash down the rock blocking it, the terrible amount of water will rush down, inevitably triggering flash floods.

The river formed by the waterfall flows along the mountains into the city of Twyllul.

At that time, a large number of floods will wash down with countless rocks, and the entire city will be submerged in flash floods!
