The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming - Chapter 1056

Will went lower and lower, and the ground began to get wet.

If someone blocks the passage at this time, he will be trapped underground.

After passing a cold shallow water ditch, the terrain began to rise, showing a spiral feeling. It seems to go around in circles.

Will was patient and walked slowly step by step, not hurriedly, not hurriedly.

Since it’s here, let’s go, there will always be an end.

Finally, the terrain no longer rises, the ground becomes dry, and then it moves forward tortuously.

The air in this dark tunnel is muddy, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.

By estimation, Will felt like he was out of the school city.

In the tunnel, it is easy to lose yourself, lose your sense of direction and sense of time.

Especially in the dark.

If Will had no green vision, he would have fainted in the tunnel.

The tunnel obviously makes people unable to distinguish the direction, and it is deliberately elongated, making people feel collapsed in the dark.

It’s like an exam question.

Will relied on the ability of Green Vision to complete the exam.

He came to the end.

In front of a door with no handle.

Will pushes the door, it doesn’t move.

Pushing hard again, it feels like pushing a big mountain.

Human power cannot push a mountain.

This is a stone gate without handles.

Will decided to knock on the door, this was the only way he thought of.

Cocoa!

It was tapped first, and no one responded.

Then knock it hard, bang bang bang!

Footsteps came from outside, and Will was only separated from the outside world by a door.

A door that cannot be opened from the inside.

“Doctor, there is a voice in the wall.” A voice said. The voice is somewhat familiar, but it may be because the voice is deformed and illusory and faint through the airtight wall.

Did not hear the answer from the person named Doctor.

Will increased his strength.

“Doctor, can you hear, someone is knocking on the rock wall, is this hollow?” the voice continued.

I still didn’t hear the doctor’s voice, but the other person’s voice was getting farther away.

In the end, the sound was silent and silent.

Will banged hard, to no avail, echo echoing around him, spreading far down the tunnel.

The tunnel twists and turns, and there is no fork in the road, but it is just a dark, a tortuous back and forth, from the initial moderate temperature, to the cold underground, to the upward suffocation, and finally to the door that cannot be opened. If you can’t do it in Seeing things in the dark as day, Will believes that many people will collapse in the middle.

Outside, there was no sound.

Will didn’t have a knife on his body and couldn’t find the gap in the door. He couldn’t pry the door. I have tried pushing the door, no matter whether it is up, down, left, or right, no.

As time passed, Will could not go out.

Turn around?

He also tried to push the door when he came in, to no avail.

The door is like black iron that has taken root.

He was blocked in the door, unless someone came to open the door, or returned to the door of Xuecheng, knocking on the door, Arya and others were still waiting for him in the library of Xuecheng after all.

But Will was not reconciled. Since the knock on the door can be heard, just knock.

*

Xuecheng Library.

Dr. Plante came out, and Arya, Rosso, and Podrick were waiting at a door.

“Where is Lord Will?” Arya asked.

Dr. Pulan didn’t answer, and shook his head, beckoning everyone to follow him.

So everyone walked out, at the gate of the library, and saw Bachelor Pater who was waiting here.

“Go back!” Pulan motioned.

“Go back!” Gina the White Raven in Arya’s hand learnt his tongue, her voice was exactly the same as that of Dr. Puran, and her tone of voice was vivid.

“Go back, go back!” said the white crow.

In a cage of white crows that Poderek was holding, two little white crows were also babbling, just like two milky children: “Go back, go back!”

“Aaliyah, you can name these two little guys now, and then train them to understand the meaning of the conversation. When they grow up, they will understand you, just like your two flying elves. “

“Yes, Doctor, thank you for sending us the White Crow.” Arya said.

She wanted to ask what Lord Will was doing and how was it, but Arya held back. It seemed that Will was doing something to finally get the burning candle.

The candle is made and refined by the dragon crystal. Before the assistant bachelor becomes an official bachelor, why spend the night in the dark and try to light the dragon crystal.

Long Jing, speaking from the mouths of the scholars, is glass.

Why try to light the glass? Glass cannot be ignited, does it mean that magic itself does not exist?

From the master’s bachelor, Arya and others learned that Xuecheng refused to believe in magic and was committed to creating a purely scientific world.

But there is another rule for lighting glass candles.

Arya looked at Rosso and Podrick, all of them were slightly disturbed. Lord Will did not come back, and Dr. Guan refused to discuss any topic about Lord Will.

And the Faceless One is still around, staring at him.

The Faceless are not here alone. They are a team. The feather pen wine bottle has existed for 600 years and has never closed. Now we can infer that the feather pen wine bottle may be a small branch of the faceless person, and of course it may not be. .

The group returned to the General Administration Pavilion.

Going up a spiral staircase, there are many rooms on the second floor.

“Mrs. Arya, Sir Rosso, Sir Podric, you choose a room to rest, and you will call out when you have something to do. I will arrange for apprentices to serve you.” Dr. Plante said.

This is the place where the General Administration Pavilion entertains guests.

Every year, many people come here to visit Xuecheng from all over the world, and the footprints of the bachelors are all over two continents. On the other side of the narrow sea, Essos also has many bachelors serving the governor, king, island owner, mercenary group,

With the sound of footsteps of Arya and others, some room doors opened, and some people stood at the door, looking at Arya and others.

They are all strangers, and many of them are mainlanders on the other side of the narrow sea with different looks and services. But one of them caught Arya’s attention. His clothes and appearance were special. Arya had seen him in the city of Quars on the continent of Essos.

Quills City and the mainland of Sothros do business mostly. Many goods, the goods trade between the two continents, are traded in Quills, and then sent to other ports on the mainland through the port of Quills. Including delivery to major ports in Westeros.

In Quairs, there are people from the mainland of Essos because of trade.

Essos Continent, a continent that is many times larger than Westeros and bigger than Essos Continent, is located to the south of Essos Continent.

The weather in the south is hot, just like the southern Dorn of Westeros. The skin of Dorn people is mainly dark and rough.

The people of Sosros are darker than the Dorne, and the skin of the people in the Midsummer Islands is almost as dark as night.

The people of the islands in midsummer are thin, while the people of Sosros are tall, agile, elegant, and have beautiful body lines.

At a glance, Arya recognized that the tall man like black charcoal was from the mainland of Sothros. This is not uncommon in Quills, very common, but in Westeros, it is very rare.

Arya noticed patterns on the dark-skinned man’s face.

In Qirs, it is said that the gods on the continent of Essos are from Sosros. The mountains, grasslands, hills, woods, and rivers of Sosros are said to live in gods.

Gods and people live together, and they are not separate. It is said that gods also intermarried with mortals.

Of course, those are rumors and stories, Arya never took it seriously.

But it was the first time I saw people from Sosros on the continent of Westeros.

Although it was only a brief glimpse, Arya had improved her understanding of Xuecheng to a new level.

Xuecheng’s external exchanges and contacts have been ahead of the mainland royal family.

However, a school city that never believes in gods, accepts people from the continent where gods live?

This reminded Arya of the source of the Dragon Crystal Candle.

The dragon crystal candle comes from Essos on the other side of the narrow sea, from the Valyrian Empire, an empire dominating the world with a giant dragon.

Before the Valyrian Empire was destroyed by earth fire, it sent envoys to send four dragon crystal candles made from dragon flames to the Xuecheng, and asked the Xuecheng to keep it. This storage is a thousand years.

When Will and Arya first arrived, they were not determined to take away and keep the Dragon Crystal Candle until they saw several faceless men in the old town. The inevitable determination of the faceless made Will and Arya know that they underestimated the importance of the Dragon Crystal Candle, so Will and Arya knew that they must protect the Dragon Crystal Candle.

The dragon crystal candle of Westeros Continent must not fall into the hands of the Faceless. It was the royal family of the Valyrian Empire that sent the Dragon Crystal Candles back then. The founder of the Faceless Man was a miner in the underground mine of the Valyrian Empire, and the royal family of the Valyrian Empire was the enemy. .

Arya, Rosso, and Podrick checked into the guest room and waited patiently for Lord Will’s return.

One day passed, two days passed, three days passed, four days passed… Lord Will had no news.

Arya went to see the director Dr. Plante, but Bachelor Pater was missing. The Bachelor of Goalkeeper tells Arya that Dr. Polan is on the Isle of Ravens.

It is the island of crows again.

You need to row a boat at the Weeping Pier to get to the Isle of Crows.

Arya rowed with Rosso and Poderek and arrived at the Isle of Ravens. The assistant bachelor said that Dr. Pran had just left. I don’t know where I went. If I can’t find him elsewhere, I’ll go to the library to find him.

The learning city is very large with many buildings. There are nearly 10,000 bachelors. There are tens of thousands of towers, bridges, and houses on top of each other. Standing high above the sky, the learning city is a maze.

To find a person in this maze, if there is no accurate location, aimlessly, you may never find it.

*

“What are you talking about? Vograve.” an old voice asked.

“There are people underground,” a voice replied.

*

Vograv?

Wait, Vograve? The old doctor that Pete served was unconscious and unable to take care of himself.

Pat is dead, and a few days ago, the voice was very much like the apprentice Pat. Pat, who is looked down upon, has a special voice, full of unconfidence.

Will, who was across the wall, heard the words, and his voice was clearer than that of Pete the other day.

Maybe it was late at night, maybe they were close enough, so close that they were only separated by a stone wall.

But Will could not break the wall.

Xuecheng is not a pure building, it feels like a magical palace.

Wil Mingming knocked on the stone wall, but the conversation between the two opposite people said that the sound came from the underground.

Could it be that the place where Will is standing is actually underground, with the Bachelor standing on top of his head? If the position where you stand is perpendicular to the position of the bachelors, why didn’t you fall?

*

“Someone, someone underground?” another voice asked.

“The stone walls, the underground, and the ceiling have been knocked on.” Vograve said in a low voice. The voice seemed to be in Will’s ears, and Will could even feel a faint breath in his ears.

This made Will’s back sweat.

This feels weird.

Wilbur has never moved, and there is only the stone wall in front of him. He is sure that the position of his strike has never changed, nor can it be changed.

Will decided to knock.

He still had energy after being hungry for several days, and curled up on the ground to sleep when he was sleepy. When he woke up, he would knock on the stone wall. There was only so much he could do.

Go back?

He has returned twice, and then walked back again.

People who are a little weaker are already crazy.

Can’t get out, have no food, and don’t know what the ending will be? Perhaps, Dr. Pulan is a faceless man. A faceless man who has lived in Xuecheng for a long time, who knows? Will doesn’t understand Dr. Pulan’s past. Perhaps Dr. Pulan himself is a bachelor, and a faceless person who learned later. Perhaps when he was young, he fell in love with a girl named Roxi in the feather pen bottle, and then…

With no way in and out, Will has thought about it a lot.

Boom! Boom!

Will knocked.

However, this time, the sound did not seem to be heard.

“Dr. Worgrave, do I need someone to dig into the ground?”

“No,” said Dr. Vograve. “Galvin, will a thief dug a tunnel to reach us.”

*

Dr. Galvin?

The supervisor Dr. Puran mentioned this name, and the Bachelor Cobain also mentioned it. Cobain once told Will that in Xuecheng, the only doctor he admired was Galvin.

Galvin also studied necromancy and anatomy. Cobain said that Galvin’s research was more powerful than Cobain, but Cobain was expelled from the city of learning, and Galvin did not. He is already the most senior Ph.D. in Xuecheng, and he is highly respected.

*

“The thieves dig tunnels here, why?”

“Dragon Crystal.” Vograve’s low voice sounded in Will’s ear again, as if he was right beside Will.

“Dragon crystal? Obsidian? Lord Will’s dragon crystal weapons to fight against ghosts are everywhere. It’s not unusual.”

Will froze!

Obsidian can be cast into daggers, spear points, arrows, short knives, why not cast into candles?

“The dragon crystal I’m talking about is not the obsidian from Dragonstone Island, but the dragon crystal candle from the Valyrian Empire.”
