Chapter 302: Pool Water
The glimmer of light emanating from the pool of foresight was quickly noticed by the priests, and a group of priests gathered around the old man, Kano, and hurried to the edge of the pool. Looking at the clear image in the millilight, these people finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the pool water had successfully fallen into the hands of the girl.
Trust is the biggest headache. Even showing kindness to a stranger's sudden gift will only deepen the other person's vigilance. What's more, there are still many conflicts of interest that need to be resolved, which have long gone beyond the boundaries of good and evil.
The pool water cannot be sent directly to the other party, otherwise the consequences are unpredictable, but what if it is robbed?
For a few days they even suspected that the plan had failed. There was a violent reaction at first, and although he regained his composure later, he lost contact completely within a few days. Who would have thought that things would turn around again.
That drop of pool water is far from being as simple as it seems, and at this level, the essence of things has nothing to do with size. If you can go deep into it, you will find that it is a well, a spring.
Each temple will have a similar pool of water, and the size of the pool is usually affected by the size of the population and the concentration of mana. They all diverge from the mother pool, like nodes that bind the people together.
The temples on the Emerald Continent are too old, and with the passage of time, the ponds in the temples have gradually become independent existences. Even some of the rituals have forgotten the origin of the water, and the connection between the water has become non-existent.
Considering the harsh conditions of the Barren Continent, they took that drop of pool water from the core of the Mother Pool. The drop of pool water will not allow aliens to come into contact with it, and if it is forcibly ingested by aliens, it will inevitably trigger a violent reaction. It's not just a pool of water, it's just as a weapon. And it's still bloodline, and the ancient legend says that the ancestors were born from the water of the pool.
It was a gift, a test, and the results were both satisfying and embarrassing.
Unexpectedly, it was also an expected trouble. A continent recovering from the near death cannot have only one "Sage". The person who was able to shield the pool water must have reached this level.
Kano stepped forward and asked softly, "Who interfered with the connection between the pool and the water before?"
The water in the pool is turbulent, and the fog begins to disperse and coalesce. But everyone waited for a long time, and only saw the fog.
"Who is it?" he asked again.
But there was still not much change, only the fog was rolling a little more violently. Under the gaze of everyone, the mist swirled and gradually returned to calm.
That's it, the answer? Everyone looked at each other.
"Is it our people?"
The mist slowly wriggled and seemed to hesitate, eventually condensing into a big "yes" word.
"Is it a man or a woman?"
Faced with this simple question, the fog suddenly froze, as if it had encountered a big problem. After a few moments, he rolled violently, excited to feel the answer. A large "he" representing the male character also emerged.
"What does he look like?"
The mist began to swirl again......
A young priest thought of something and cried out very impolitely: "I see! what he looks like when he gets along with his family! What he looks like when he appears to his parents!"
The mist slowly revealed the image of a young man, a face that closely resembled the girl under the clear facial lines.
The crowd, who had been a little annoyed, were stunned when they saw this scene, and Kano also turned sideways and motioned for the young man to continue.
"Who is the most powerful man?"
A boy changes into a girl.
"Their relationship?"
......
"Which of them is stronger?"
The mist rolled again, and the image changed rapidly, with a teenager with dark circles under his eyes and a girl's reddish forehead, until the two stood side by side. The boundary between light and darkness divides the siblings in two, and they stand in their respective worlds.
Kano's face changed slightly, and a group of clansmen who had been exiled for an unknown number of years had actually produced two "sages". ”
There will definitely be more saints to come. A recovering continent is already full of opportunities, unlike here, which has long been solidified and saturated, forming too many restrictions that are difficult to break through.
As the drop of water unfolded and grew, and as it reached more and more people there, it would soon provide them with more useful information.
He was now interested in the boy, a human-inhuman creature. That young man was able to isolate the induction in the bloodline, if it wasn't for that girl, I don't know how long it would take to discover his existence.
The speed of the recovery of the Barren Continent is somewhat unusual. From the discovery of the girl in the first temple to the eventual attention of everyone, their reaction was not unpleasant, but it was still too passive.
The dragon must have foreseen something, so he actively participated. First I thought of a young female dragon, followed by two young and strong male dragons.
The dragon's enthusiasm made them a little nervous, and many couldn't help but ask, "What are they going to do?"
It is already a well-known fact that there is a prophet hidden in the ancestral dragon. The things they are actively involved in, although more for their own benefit, also show that the risks are still within the scope of tolerance.
Prophets, foresight and such things are but one of a myriad of possibilities, a fragment of a myriad of branches. Fragments alone do not tell the story at all, and it is only when multiple fragments are obtained that it is possible to approximate the direction of events. But if you want to get multiple pieces in a row, the difficulty is not much different from hitting the luck.
Usually the two tribes will refer to each other through their own predictions, and even this kind of jokes are not uncommon. Many times it's more like an assessment of risk, whether there is an opportunity hidden in a piece and how much risk it takes to make that opportunity. But this kind of cooperation often hides information from each other that is not enough for outsiders to say, so it is not uncommon for each other to drag each other down.
The two sides worked hard to cooperate in a love-hate relationship, and both sides have made gains. It's just that there are more things to experience together, and there are more and more things that are hidden from each other.
Trust or distrust is gradually added to various conditions, and the assessment of risk is gradually expanded to each other.
Kano was a little annoyed with the two male dragons that followed, as he guessed that the dragon had already reaped the benefits. This inevitably makes people unwilling, their benefits are still being planned, but the other party takes the lead. Although their profits will be unimaginable if the plan is successful, the feeling of being taken advantage of is uncomfortable.
Taking out two drops of water from the mother pool again, Kano suddenly became irritable. He was about to turn away, but he stopped. This emotion should not have been in him, he was a Sage, a near-immortal being.
He suddenly reacted that something was about to happen!
What will happen? With this question, his gaze subconsciously shifted to the pool. There, his countenance was rapidly rotting and drying, gradually dissipating with the wind.
