Chapter 20: What He Left Behind in the World

"Poet" doesn't really mean anything special.

It's just that Eros thinks that his life is similar to that of the precarious bards, so he chooses a random name.

As for this speech, Aeros was also free to play according to the oath of the Eternals.

He makes sure that others don't know that he knows nothing, and he doesn't feel like he knows everything.

Anyway, grasping this vein, Ayros boldly started his first speech.

Now it seems that the results of the speech are not bad.

After the speech, the Eternal Network automatically let him out, and it is said that the next time it will be turned on is a week later.

I don't know what's next.

When the virtual lines were gone, Eros turned around to see Joey sitting on the ice, still clapping his hands at him.

"Why, what are you clapping for. ”

"I applaud your speech. ”

"........" Eros felt for the first time what social death was.

(Can't the mysterious space even be soundproofed??)

Eroth feigned coughing, then responded, "Where are we going next?"

The change of topic can be described as blunt, but Joey didn't seem to mind, and said directly, "My map doesn't record this area. ”

"That's okay, I'm doing it when it comes to finding the way, you bring your map. ”

Joey flipped through his bag, and the two of them had a lot of stumbles along the way, thanks to the excellent quality of their respective bags, otherwise the contents would have been ruined.

Taking out the map and putting it on the ice of the ice lake, Aelos began to compare the two maps, extending along the map line, planning the possible location of this area, and while he looked at the map, he was also cautious about the surrounding environment, and the two confirmed each other to make sure that he was on the right path.

It took him a moment for Ayros to finally get his bearings, and according to his judgment, walking ten to fifteen standard kilometers southeast would return to the area marked on the map, so that they could follow the map to where their car was.

Continuing to set off, Ayros no longer had any nostalgia for this ice lake, even if there were relics of ancient civilizations hidden under this ice lake, and the story of how a sage went to destruction, he did not have any interest in understanding, he was now tired and just wanted to find a warm place to sleep.

As he walked along, it was only natural that Aros began to fiddle with the sigil of the eternal web attached to his hand.

It didn't seem to do him any good, except that it gave him the task of being an administrator and the ability to give weekly online talks.

But there are enough weirdness in himself, and if there is more, Eros doesn't care.

Originally, it was close to the afternoon, the sun was slanting to the west mountain, but the ice lake was vast and endless, the weather began to become cold, in the cold wind, the two of them had not yet reached the predetermined location, they saw the sun set in advance, a dim ray of light, connected with the snow mountain, shining on the boundary of the ice lake.

"I think it's almost there. Joey rubbed his hands together and exhaled a long breath.

"Well, it's not far away. Eros confirmed, and replied.

The closest area to the lake is to the northwest of the Disillusioned Winter Mountain, a low, canyon and ravine, where snow elves and frozen apes gather to walk through the area to go back to where they came from.

Originally, it was easy to return to a familiar location on the map, after all, I finally didn't have to wander around on an unknown desert island, and I could follow the map to find my way back.

But Joey seemed a little restless now, and after walking two or three hundred meters further, her face suddenly became ugly, as if something bad had been contaminated.

"What's wrong with you. Eloth's attention returned to Joey and spotted her anomaly.

"A little problem, I can deal with it when I get there. ”

"Show me. ”

Joey pulled up her sleeve, and on her arm, a string of reddish-brown twisted veins crawled, the damn little thing greedily sucking Joey's blood, and still shaking vividly.

The appearance of this little thing is obviously the sequelae left by Joey after using "Soul Suppression", and the matter of using blood as a curse is extremely dangerous on any level.

Although "Soul Town" does provide important support for Eros's awakening layout and even the final counter-kill on an objective level, the consequences of this cannot be ignored.

However, Aelos has a lot of experience in dealing with such small things, after all, as a high-intensity corpse collector, facing these gadgets is their normal job.

"Little things, you should have talked about it earlier, I'll take care of it for you right away," Eros said naturally after glancing at it.

As he spoke, Aroth snapped his fingers, and a bubble of air began to wrap around Joey's arm, a new ability that Eros had acquired after fusing Karn's corpse, or rather an enhancement of his old ability.

The ability of air explosion can choose to condense into bubbles first, and then control the scope and time of the explosion, and the other three abilities have also been evolved at different levels, and his physical fitness has undoubtedly improved.

Inside the air bubble, there is actually a semi-vacuum without gas flow, and this vacuum will cause the active substance that depends on blood flow to survive a feeling of suffocation, and it will take about two to three minutes to make it suffocate directly.

Joey didn't actually know that the air bubble of Elos had such an effect, she just felt that the vascular substance attached to her right hand was heating up, hot, and very anxious.

After a while, the veins began to break away from Joey's hands, and he leaped impatiently into the air, falling onto the ice, and crawling towards the outside world.

After this thing came into the vast world, it showed extraordinary activity, like a blood-red worm full of energy, wriggling wildly between the ice.

Elos quickly stopped Joey's bleeding, and the thing came out, leaving a small wound on Joey's arm, but fortunately it didn't hurt the artery, so it didn't hurt the muscles and bones.

Once the bleeding had stopped, he and Joey quickly chased after the blood-red worm and released their cursed object to the outside world to roam freely, a taboo that was explicitly forbidden by all mystical texts.

If something happens to this kind of thing, it will definitely hurt Joey.

Although the blood-red worm looked like it was crawling, it was actually moving faster than the two runners like Eroth.

But luckily, Eros picked up speed and came to the range where he could ignite, and he quickly rubbed his thumb against the other four fingers, and a burst of fire rushed to the sky, burning the thing clean on the ice lake, leaving a charred black mark.

After dealing with this thing, both of them were relieved, but when they looked up, they found that they had inadvertently broken into an even more strange territory.

The sky had completely darkened, the moon was nowhere to be seen, only the stars, the distant mountains had become blurry and distant, the frozen lake was far in sight, and the blue ghost floated, the brightest light in the dark sky.

These blue ghosts come in all shapes, some like humans, some like deer, and they all pull the blue arc light, beating irregularly.

In the world as far as Eros could see, their figures flashed smartly, occupying almost his entire field of vision, this blue wonder was a special scene belonging to this ice lake, they lightly drove those particles with light, like the dust of light sprinkled all over the world.

Occasionally, two blue ghosts would come towards Eloth, and they would weave through Eroth's body, as if nothing in this world could hinder them from welcoming them to freedom.

Joey's eyes are shining, no matter how weak the perception of the girl, she can feel the magic of real beauty, this blue world, blue light, decorate the monotonous lake into a grand scene.

"Look up and look at the sky. Eros pointed.

"That's ...... Is that a dragon?"

In Eroth and Joey's field of vision, a blue spirit dragon was hovering high in the sky, but his huge size did not bring the two of them the same oppressive feeling as the red dragon before, but instead appeared soft and bright.

It is like a stream of water gently brushing the face, hovering in the soft sky, driving brilliant flashes of light, condensing into beautiful curves.

Slowly, the dragon circled the sky a few more times, and Joey keenly noticed that blue light was falling off his body, or rather, from its face.

Joey tried to catch the light, but it passed through her hand, fell into the ice, and fell to the bottom of the lake, where the light dimmed with the deep currents of the lake and finally disappeared into darkness.

The light grew more and more densely, and sprinkled all over the sky.

"Tearful dragons, that's where the legend of the Disillusioned Winter Mountain comes from......" Eroth took over.

"Yes, you look around, they're all releasing their emotions. ”

Eros circled and turned, looking around in a panoramic way, and those blue ghosts were no longer monotonous and chaotic wanderers in his eyes, but real and definite existences.

They embrace, they laugh, they kiss everywhere, they chase each other, they quarrel, they come close and they separate.

On this dark stage, they use blue light to perform a grand drama, which is a wordless emotion, vividly expressing the vitality of life they once existed, and the brilliant tomorrow they once had.

Their faces and bodies may resemble humans and deer, and they may not be able to distinguish what kind of creatures they are, but their emotions are real, and their real actions convey the most direct and clear emotions.

Eros felt that his heart was baptized by this scene, and he began to think about his future life, and so did Joey, this is a scene that can't be written ten thousand times in a book, this is a short letter under the vastness of the world.

"Where do you think they come from. Joey asked.

"From the bottom of the lake. ”

"Why is it night? we ...... during the day," Joey seemed to think of something.

"It's the light that you see, they're the light that gathers. ”

"Are they part of Karn's plan?" asked Joey.

"No, they are Karn's death process. ”

More blue ghosts floated out, and as Eros said, they floated from the bottom of the lake, through the flowing waters, through the dark sky, and composed their own poems.

"Death process, what do you mean by that?"

"You don't really think we've got a demigod, our victory, no matter how hard we triumphed, was just a fluke in every way. ”

"You're saying that Karn was already on his way to death, and his disappointment was manifested in the escape of emotions and the detachment of memory, but because he was so powerful, this process of death formed such a strange scene in nature?"

"Clever, but a little missing, he's not only on the road, and he's not on the road here, he's already on the road, before coming here. ”

"Is this again?"

"Remember that letter?"

"What's on the letter?"

Karn wrote in the letter, saying that he was so sad that he could have someone to accompany him. ”

"This...."Joey didn't know how to understand this sentence for a moment.

"It doesn't matter what the letter says, the point is why there is this letter, which means that he can't control his emotions anymore and is on the verge of collapse,

A demigod who plays with emotions and memories to the point where he can't control his emotions means that he is nearing the end of his life.

It may be his own power that destroys himself. ”

"That's why his layout is so sloppy and so loose?" said Joey.

"Maybe that's just his last sanity, but there are also clever things, he used rocks that can grow, trees, and a solid cave structure, which has allowed this bureau to last for thousands of years. ”

"He's a real powerhouse. Joey spoke in a serious tone.

"Maybe it's the real weakling, maybe it's not enough. Elos's words seemed to be emotional.

After watching the dark blue festival here more, waiting for the moon to come out, the two left here.

On the way home.
