Soul Echo

Lilian sat on horseback and followed Zhong Ye into the valley, slowly, she stared wide-eyed.

——clang!

The breeze blew the Zhanfeng Duo hanging from the cornice, and the bell made a crisp sound.

Black stone pillars hold up the carved beams, the brown wooden door is tightly closed, and there are two stone walls on both sides of the door. The wooden token hanging above is undoubtedly a Chinese-style building - in Soul Echo, it is Easterland style.

How come there are 'Easterland-style' buildings here?

"Ancestral hall..."

Zhong Ye looked into the distance and saw the engraved text on several wooden tokens.

Left and right are 'everything has its own merits, Mingde Weixin', and the letter 'Vitus' Temple'.

"You know?" The giant who brought Zhong Ye and the others into the valley was greatly surprised.

Zhong Ye sighed: "I'm from Easterland..."

"Easterland..."

The giant suddenly realized, then turned his head and looked towards the ancestral hall, " In fact, most of our Vitus giants have bloodlines from Easterlanders, because our ancestors once rescued a distressed Easterlander, and later that Easterlander and a female giant from our tribe became husband and wife. I heard that at that time, India was not broken yet. When the war broke, people from Easterland often came to Vitus to do business with us, and some simply stayed in Vitus, and taught us how to breed silkworms, weave silk, and cultivate. Now the silks on the market in Xilu are: Many are from the hands of our giants."

Zhong Ye looked thoughtful and nodded, and suddenly asked: "Do you have a way to go to Easterland?"

"Do you want to go to Easterland? ?"

Seeing Zhong Ye nodding, the giant sighed: "We can't do anything... If we can, there should be many people who want to go to Easterland to take a look, right?"

The giant's eyes also have a look of longing. He also seems to want to go to Easterland to see what the prosperous land that has been handed down in the family for a long time looks like.

Giants are a subspecies of human, their lifespan is not much longer than that of ordinary person, and even in terms of theoretical lifespan, giants are shorter than humans.

It's just that human beings are all sick and injured, and their bodies are more fragile than giants, so that the actual lifespan is difficult to approach the theoretical lifespan, resulting in the illusion of 'the giant's lifespan is longer than the ordinary person'.

Hundreds of years were also long for the giants, so long that they forgot the physical features of the 'Easterlander', so the giant didn't recognize Zhong Ye as an Easterlander after seeing him people.

After sighing for a while, the giant stepped forward again, taking Zhong Ye and the others to the depths of the mountain valley.

The ancestral hall was built on a flattened mountain in the middle of the valley, so Zhong Ye and the others could see the building at first sight after entering the valley.

'Vitus' is a city built around the ancestral hall. The city covers a large area, and every building can make Lilian feel shocked, because it is too 'big' .

All buildings are scaled proportionally, and if Lillian is dismounted and walks, she may not be much higher than the threshold.

This is the kingdom of giants, Zhong Ye is already quite tall, but compared with the giants, he only reaches the waist of the shortest adult giant.

"Qi, they are the guests?"

On the street, all the giants are looking at the two 'little people' curiously, few outsiders from Vitus enter, Zhong Ye and Lilian knew at first glance that they were not mages, but if they looked carefully, they didn't look like demonhunters, so the giants were very interested in their identities.

The giant who brought Zhong Ye and the others into Vitus was named 'Qi', and when he heard the question, he nodded, "Yes, this is 'Zhong Ye', a man from Easterland. The Battle Master, he wants to challenge us, and I'm about to take him to see the king."

As soon as these words came out, the street instantly boiled.

'Easterland', 'Battlemaster', 'challenge', any of these three words can provoke their excitement, but now they appear in the same sentence, how can it be? Keep them unexcited and excited.

The giant who asked Qi even widened his eyes, lowered his head, and looked at Zhong Ye carefully.

"Master, forgive me for offending."

After looking at it for a while, the giant suddenly spoke, then rushed forward with a stride, and threw a fist at Zhong Ye.

The other giants, including Qi, did not stop him, but stepped aside.

Qi stepped over to the packhorse, blocking the front, providing protection for Lillian and the packhorse.

Zhong Ye was not angry, but seeing others do what one loves to do, one is inspired to try it again, took a step forward and raised his left hand to grab the giant's fist.

However, just before the palm of the hand made contact with the fist surface, the five fingers that were open suddenly slid away, clasped the giant's wrist suddenly, and pulled the heavy body over.

All this was beyond the giant's expectations. His fist should have landed on Zhong Ye, but after a moment, the offense and defense were different.

The right hand was lifted, and a palm was pushed out. The palm of the hand printed on the giant's chest, but it did not cause him any harm, but took advantage of the situation to push his body up and sling it aside.

"Oh!!"

Whether it was the giant watching or the audience in the live broadcast room, they all expressed their admiration.

In just two or three seconds, the battle was over, which was unexpected.

——The giant made a move suddenly, thinking how powerful he was, but this is the result?

Zhong Ye subconsciously cup one fist in the other hand with both hands, "you let me win!"

Then, even he was stunned.

This posture seems to have been integrated into his bones and blood over time, becoming his instinct...

The giant who just got up from the ground was stunned, confused but quite Familiarly gave Zhong Ye a cup one fist in the other hand salute.

At this time, Qi stood up and waved his hand, "Everyone is gone, I'm going to take them to see the king. When the 'duel ceremony' begins, everyone will come and watch again."

Although the giants are very curious about Zhong Ye, in comparison, 'duel ceremony' is more important.

The giants did not disperse, but moved out of the way, stopped on both sides of the street, and watched Zhong Ye and the others go away.

Qi walked ahead and looked back at Zhong Ye curiously.

Although he could see that Zhong Ye was a 'Battle Master' at the exit of the gorge, but didn't expect Zhong Ye was not only skilled, but also quite powerful.

--their giant's strength is not something that 'mortals' can bear.

"Your Excellency Zhong Ye, since you want to see our Vitus's martial skill, then you should be clear that our Vitus's martial skill requires weapons to cooperate, if it's just an empty-handed fight..."

Qi was interrupted by Zhong Ye before he could finish his words: "It's right to be injured because of the fight!"

Looking at his serious look Looking, Qi closed his mouth, no longer discouraged.

The giant took Zhong Ye to the middle of the mountain valley, where the king of giants of Vitus lived at the foot of the nameless mountain carrying the ancestral hall.

Compared to other houses in Vitus, the 'mansion' where the giant king lived does not look too luxurious, because giants are full of skilled craftsmen who can decorate their houses and build them quite beautiful.

And the 'mansion' of the Giant King is already an old building hundreds of years ago. Although it has a charm left by time and years, it also has several points of being behind the times.

When he came to the gate of the mansion, Qi explained to Zhong Ye and the others: "This mansion was left by our rescued Easterland ancestor, who married Vitu at that time. The most beautiful giantess in Vitus, that is, Vitus patriarch at that time, and since then, Vitus' architectural style has changed."

Qi walked up and knocked on the gate of the mansion, Not long after, the door was pulled open.

A giantess took a few glances and saw Zhong Ye and the others behind Qi, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Since Qi brought them to the mansion, that means...

"They...want to challenge us?" the giantess asked.

Qi seriously nodded, "Yes, Oriole, hurry up and tell the king that a Battle Master is visiting and will challenge us."

The giantess nodded and opened the door Pulled away, then took a step back and walked back.

Qi took Zhong Ye and the others into the mansion, bypassed the screen wall, and came to the main hall of the mansion.

The Giant King didn't make them wait too long, and people arrived before the sound: "Welcome, Dear Battle Master!"
