Alien Knights

Sabrina lay on the ground, looking at the distant black giant tower in the sea of ​​flames, and murmured, "Rachel, you must be joking with me, right?"

Rachel held the rock tightly with both hands, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I'm not kidding."

"Then tell me! How do we get over the magma?! Fly over?!"

Rachel pressed her back tightly against the rock, and moved towards the entrance of the cave step by step. The strong wind blew away her long hair, and the heat scorched her skin. With no trace of fear on her face, she turned her head to Sarah. Briana said: "No matter when and where, there is always a way ahead, as long as you are brave enough to take the first step."

Watching Rachel walk out of the cave slowly, Sabrina first glanced back, then gritted her teeth and stood up, walking towards the cave entrance step by step against the strong wind.

After walking out of the cave, Sabrina realized what the road Rachel was talking about.

There is a winding path beyond the entrance of the cave, leading to the distance along the rock wall.

Stepping on the platform, the loose rocks under her feet and the spurting underground spring made Sabrina cheer up and walk forward carefully.

This is a dangerous, long and arduous journey. Sabrina, who has lived for so many years, is the first time she has stepped into such a harsh environment in her memory.

If it wasn't for the woman in front of her who kept going, leading and inspiring her, Sabrina might have turned around and turned back.

After walking forward like this for almost an hour, the black tower in the distance became taller and taller in the field of vision.

Sabrina, who borrowed the girl's body, was already exhausted at this time, looked at the breathtaking majestic building in her eyes, and asked out of breath: "What is that?"

Rachel fiddled with the broken hair beside her ear, and said softly: "The Beacon Tower, the residence of the absolute will."

"Absolute will? What is that?"

"According to the records in the Presbyterian Church, the absolute will is the beginning of all things and the origin of the universe. It has different forms in the eyes of different people."

Sabrina looked at the tall tower that Rachel was talking about, and asked in disbelief: "You mean, the reason why the Presbyterian Church is located here is because of this tower? So, what exactly are they doing?" What do you want to do there?"

"According to the rumors, absolute will can transform an ordinary person into a god in the world."

Sabrina laughed. "Is this possible?"

Seeing Rachel's serious face, Sabrina opened her eyes wide: "Are you serious?"

"Yes, in the Christian Dead Sea documents, the rune stones of the gods, and the songs of the ancient gods, there are descriptions of the black tower and absolute will. However, under the intentional cover-up of the believers, these records are either vague , or be erased directly.”

Sabrina thought about it carefully: "You said before that Iliad was doing something secretly. Could it be that he wants to use this power to become a god?"

Rachel moved her feet, and continued to set off towards the beacon tower, saying: "You need to discover everything next, but what I can tell you is that you will soon realize that the truth may be more than you imagined. The ones in the middle are more terrifying.”

Sabrina, who was full of doubts, followed behind Rachel, walking towards the goal step by step.

Soon, the two came to the cliff below the giant tower.

Rachel gestured to Sabrina to walk softly and not make noise.

The two climbed up to a narrow opening in the rock wall and followed the cracks in the rock to a wide hall.

The hot magma flowed down the mountain like a waterfall along the mountain wall, and the flat and smooth obsidian covered the entire space. A tall altar is located in the center of the hall, and an inverted pyramid and several lines of unknown meaning are drawn on the ground below the altar.

The mask servants were busy moving various experimental equipment and materials in the hall.

And their master, Elder Iliad, stood in front of a large machine powered by geothermal steam, carefully observing the compass on it.

Bucket after bucket of black viscous liquid was poured into the machine, and they flowed through the obsidian ground to the sea of ​​magma at the end of the hall along the countless huge pipes behind the machine.

"What the hell are they doing?"

Rachel didn't answer Sabrina's question, but just waved to Sabrina, motioning for her to follow her.

The two stepped on the high-altitude rock wall, carefully bypassed the people in the hall, and climbed towards a higher place in the hall.

Using hands and feet to climb up the stone steps at the top of the hall, Sabrina lowered her head and looked down. Looking down from a height of tens of meters, the person became the size of a fingernail.

Using force under her feet, Sabrina wanted to climb over the last step, but unexpectedly, the rock where she landed was loose, and a large piece of rock broke from the rock wall and fell straight towards the ground.

Seeing this scene, Sabrina turned pale, and her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

Rachel stretched out her hands, using "mind force" to firmly hold the falling stone, and pull it upwards little by little.

After dealing with this sudden crisis, Rachel let out a long breath, nodded towards Sabrina, and continued to climb up.

The two came to the zenith directly above the hall. This is a small platform covering an area of ​​less than 100 square meters. Looking around, there is nothing here, only a man-made suspended bridge, leading to the huge black tower not far away. the body of the tower.

Looking at the light blue light constantly flowing on the giant tower, Sabrina found that Rachel had already stepped on the suspended bridge and walked towards the giant tower without hesitation.

"What do you want to do?" Sabrina followed behind Rachel, looking at the deadly magma sea under her feet in fear.

Rachel said as she walked, "I'm going to confirm some things that Absolute Will once said to me..."

Sabrina suddenly realized: "It turns out that you, like Iliad, also want to become the god of this world!"

"No, that's not the case." Rachel turned her head and said to Sabrina: "I don't have any interest in becoming a god, what I care about is some other functions of the beacon tower..."

"Sabrina, when I touch the beacon tower, my consciousness will be out of the body. If there is any movement, I need you to wake me up."

"Enough! I realize now that you tricked me into coming to the Presbyterian Council, not to help me get rid of Eleanor at all!" Sabrina said disappointedly: "You are only doing it for yourself!"

Rachel shook her head lightly: "When you find out the deep meaning of my words, you will understand that I am not lying to you... After I touch the beacon tower, everything that happens here will prove that I Everything that was said."

"Of course, if you don't trust me anymore, you can also turn around and leave, with questions and regrets, and leave here forever." Rachel turned around and continued to walk towards the beacon tower: "The decision is yours."

While Sabrina was still hesitating, Rachel had already walked in front of the beacon tower. The latter closed his eyes, and put his hand on the cold metal surface, the light blue light suddenly began to flow faster, and the light became brighter and brighter.

Rachel was like an empty shell that lost her soul, linked to the beacon tower, and never moved again.

After waiting for a while, Sabrina found that everything was calm and there was no so-called vision at all. Disappointed, she planned to give up this meaningless everything, turned around and wanted to leave.

At this moment, some unusual phenomena suddenly appeared in the magma sea below the cliff.

A large number of bubbles emerged from the surface of the magma, the flames above the lava jumped higher and higher, and there was a faint tremor on the ground.

Confused, Sabrina walked to the edge of the platform, lay down on the ground and looked down.

What happened next scared her so much that she almost fell off the platform.

Accompanied by the violent ejection of magma and the violent shaking of the ground, a monster head with a diameter of more than 20 meters was drilled out of the magma.

The whole body of this head is red, the skin is covered with wrinkled huge scales, hundreds of eyes of different sizes are scattered among the scales, and a bloody mouth full of sharp teeth sends out an earth-shattering roar towards the sky.

"My God! What the hell is that?!" Sabrina retreated quickly, only to find that the head exposed in the magma was raised higher and higher.

Its body is like a centipede, divided into sections, each section has many wriggling tentacles, and each is connected to a pipe that continuously pours black liquid. Even with a cursory look, the length of the monster's body exposed to the magma has exceeded two hundred meters.

After inspecting the surroundings, the monster pointed its head at the beacon tower, squirmed its body, and rushed towards Rachel and Sabrina.

Sabrina, who had no time to think about other things, rushed up the suspended bridge, grabbed Rachel's shoulder, and pulled her down from the beacon tower.

Like a person who was rescued ashore after drowning, Rachel opened her eyes suddenly, and took a big mouthful of air.

"Monster! The monster is coming!" Sabrina shook Rachel's shoulder vigorously with one hand, and pointed at the swiftly attacking lava monster with the other.

Rachel regained her composure, as if she had expected this situation to happen a long time ago, she pulled Sabrina and quickly hid in a small path above the high platform.

Listening to the roar of the monster, Sabrina, whose body was still trembling, asked Rachel, "What the hell is that?!"

Rachel said calmly: "Don't you want to find a way to eliminate Eleanor? That person is the answer you are looking for."

"Wait a minute? You mean that person?" Sabrina looked at Rachel in disbelief: "You mean, that monster was once a human?!"

Rachel smiled and turned her head to Sabrina: "His name must be familiar to you, the ancient sage of the alien race, the greatest alchemist in ancient Tyro, Sutherland..."
