Chapter 143 Firebird City

Located on the edge of the city, in an old house with a lot of weeds growing in the garden.

There is a photo on the table in the middle of the hall.

In the photo, there is a man and a woman. The man is a tall man with wider shoulders and taller height than ordinary people, and he has gray-red eyes.

His face is serious and he has a tall hooked nose, but the dark circles under his eyes, which seem to be caused by excessive fatigue, make his temperament a little flawed.

At this moment, a hand grabbed the photo frame and covered it.

It was a tall man, exactly the same as the man in the photo.

He just looked at the covered photo, then turned around, looked around a few times, and then left the table.

He walked to the door leisurely, then raised his hand, and a palm-sized paper appeared in his hand.

On the paper, there were complex and dense lines, like words, and like a simple depiction of something.

After staring at the paper for a few seconds, he stuffed the paper into the bookshelf in the room, between the three layers of books.

After stuffing one in, he raised his hand and took out another piece of paper that was about the same size as his palm, and placed the paper with the pattern engraved on it in the gap between the furniture.

After repeating this process several times, he tugged at his collar, tidied his appearance, and then walked towards the door.

Not far from this somewhat old courtyard, there was a relatively new apartment room.

A woman in a white windbreaker leaned against the window and glanced at the courtyard with the corner of her eyes.

Next to her, a man looked back and forth between her and the courtyard suspiciously:

"What do you want to do?"

Hearing his words, the woman in white flicked off her cigarette butt, extinguished the few remaining cigarettes in her hand in the ashtray, and then took out another cigarette from her jacket pocket.

She did not use a lighter or a sunstone fire tool, she just rubbed her fingers on the cigarette butt, and the flames flew out, lighting the cigarette in her hand.

While puffing out smoke, her eyes fell on the man:

"Don't be trembling, I've said it so many times, we are no longer the same as before, the leader controls the archon, we have become a member of the Flame Guard, we can act as police, and we are no longer the target of pursuit."

As she said, her eyes fell on the hut.

"But the leader takes this matter very seriously."

The man seemed to have long been immune to her words, but said with a vigilant look:

"Since the Stairway to Heaven fell and the black snake was hunted, the leader has never had such a situation again, do you understand?"

"Of course I understand."

The woman looked leisurely, with a strange sense of laziness:

"The giant who took the fire died, the black snake that devoured the fire has also died, and the hound that hunted the fire has never appeared again. Now, the only fire thieves are us 'Strange Birds'."

As if she knew all the treasures, the woman said one by one the names he was familiar with Hu's trace:

"The fire-eater has never appeared since the incident on the Stairway to Heaven, and disappeared with the 'Sun God'."

The light coming in from the window fell on half of her cheek, making her look even more charming:

"Now, is there anything else that can threaten us?"

This sentence made the man frown again:

"You——"

"Okay, okay, instead of spending that time to correct me, why don't you work harder yourself."

She raised her head, and the hair covering her left eye swayed with the movement, and the shocking wounds were all over the upper left part of her face, including the eye.

He could also understand the reason.

When the huge fire beast and the monster that looked like the "Sun God" appeared, he also completely lost his power, as if he had become an ordinary person.

That kind of gap is extremely uncomfortable for people who have experienced powerful power.

And, in that situation, they are indeed like ordinary people, facing crises that ordinary people can hardly solve and cannot handle.

The metal that could be burned to ashes by the flames, melted and destroyed, and peeled off, could easily tear apart their flesh.

In addition.

Of the strange birds that had acted together at the beginning, only the two of them were left.

The fire thief is not omnipotent.

The man knew that she was afraid, she was scared.

Even the leader had to repeatedly remind her to pay attention to the target, for her, it might have been covered with a layer of color like the Stairway to Heaven.

The man shook his head.

But it is undeniable that this time, they are facing a difficult enemy, but with the leader, there should be no problem.

But, there is no problem, it is only the whole plan, as a member of the strange bird, they are not sure.

He also sighed in his heart.

Since it appeared a month ago, until now, there are very few clues left. If he had not seen the leader kill the black snake with his own eyes, he would even suspect that the target this time is the black snake.

After the news from the informants they arranged in various cities came and was summarized, they realized that the target this time came to this city.

Since the incident twelve years ago, the leader has taken control of the surrounding areas centered on this city. All the information collected about the ancient times and the "fire-stealing giant" Taimori has been continuously collected under the leader's order.

Only the descendants of the ancient Sun Dynasty can become fire thieves.

Originally, both the leader and he knew a little bit, but they just thought they were descendants of royal nobles.

However, later from the various texts collected by Taimoli, they learned about Taimoli's speculation about the ancient dynasty.

The source of power of all fire thieves comes from the "Sun God", which they all know, but in fact, it was not until the node twelve years ago that they learned that the power of the fire thieves came from the ancient Sun Dynasty's repeated sacrificial ceremonies to the Sun God, and the power prayed from the Sun God.

Recently, while searching for this target, they got further news.

Prophet, priest, and chief priest.

It turned out to be two references.

The apostle who stole the power of the Sun God, and the priest who stole the power of the apostle.

"Legend has it that after the apostles descended, they were unwilling to return to the sky. They lived in the bodies of priests and multiplied in the human kingdom."

"Is that so?"

Triss listened to the description of Miss Salina, who had a male voice, and responded, but she couldn't help but regret it in her heart.

How could she agree so easily to follow others 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 priests could control fire, but they were hunting for the descendants of the prophet and the chief priest.

He wanted to cooperate with the descendants of the chief priest to fight against the descendants of the priest, and the method was to hold a ceremony to request the apostles of God to come again to fight against the descendants of those who stole fire.

Even though the other party said so much, and there was always something special about him, Triss was still half-believing and half-doubting.
