Chapter 363: Halla's Persistence
They are both descendants of the Titans, but the suppression brought by the high and low bloodlines is too obvious.
Chief Setos sat cross-legged with them, clasping his feet and not knowing what to say, but the Frost Giant family immediately agreed to stay.
The male giant named "Barry" is also a non-mainstream, and his frost giant's talent for ice and snow spells is so sparse that it can only be said to be better than nothing, at most it can be used to make some cold drinks in summer to relieve the heat.
But I don't know where I learned the prophecy of the gods.
Holding a crystal ball all day long, it is said that as long as you carefully observe and comprehend the unpredictable light and shadow inside, you can learn all the secrets of the world. I don't know if he saw that when he heard this, the eyes of the people in Gao Mountain Fort looked like they were looking at the mentally handicapped.
That night, Barry drank high, shouting that the chaos of the world would soon be put to an end and replaced by a higher order.
This typical demagogic remark confirmed the identity of the god stick, and Chief Setos began to regret why he had left the reputation of this giant for nothing.
Richard was dismissive of this on the surface, but in private, he quietly approached him alone to calculate his marriage.
As a result, after Barry looked at the crystal ball for a long time, he regretfully said, "It's the life of beating a bachelor for the rest of his life", so angry that the lord almost didn't turn his face on the spot.
"Then count the career!"
Barry didn't care about the emotions of the guests at all, and without even the slightest hesitation, he opened his mouth and said, "It's also a street."
Just when Richard couldn't help but use his privilege to check feudal superstitions, he saved himself with one sentence - "Hey, according to the above show, you should have died years earlier, how could you have survived until now." ”
"Is this crystal ball broken? Did you stumble on the road? I've always been very careful! The Titan is on it, how rare is a crystal ball that can be used by giants, and I actually broke it!"
The lord's anger vanished in an instant, and a thought could not help but come to his mind - if it weren't for him, a soul from another world, the original body would not be a single person for the rest of his life, fighting the streets and then dying, exactly like Barry had said before.
"What if someone who should have died didn't die?" asked the lord softly.
Barry was still concentrating on whether the crystal ball was bad or not, and absentmindedly responded, "Either you will create a great cause that will last forever, or you will become a demon that everyone scorns." ”
"Is there no third possibility?"
"Yes, the great cause that has created the eternal glory has become a demon that everyone revilates. ”
............
In the face of the massive scourge of the undead wreaking havoc raging in the former Stuart lands, neither San Jose nor Pompeii, nor the newly formed Free Federation of Mages could not be allowed to develop.
In the face of a common death, it is rare for human beings to temporarily put aside their infighting and show a bit of common hatred.
It is said that at the personal request of Pope John II, even San Jose, which does not directly border the area where the undead are wreaking, is ready to send reinforcements to participate in the crusade against the undead.
Today, the news has spread from north to south and from east to west, like wings.
Proclamations of similar content were posted in the kingdoms and principalities, calling on their people to unite in the face of a catastrophe of unprecedented proportions.
Nowadays, the streets and alleys of Cologne are full of human valor, whether in the aristocracy or the slums, the men's blood is boiling. Wipe down your heirloom weapons and prepare to follow the hero to defeat the evil undead when the time comes.
According to the grapevine, the regular army of Pompeii suffered limited losses in the last retreat because of its precautions, and was ready to wash away the humiliation at any time.
Although the lord was completely indifferent to this repeated big move, he also had to admit that it was indeed impossible to let the undead go.
Pompey, a descendant of the rebel Nero, was not at odds with most regimes in normal times, but for the first time now, he was widely supported.
I am used to seeing the intrigue between the nobles, and at first glance I can't help but feel a little touching.
"Innocent!" Richard said to him about it when he went to visit him in the goblin ruins, and was greeted with a sneer, "Even a catastrophe ten times larger than that of a catastrophe cannot truly unite you humans." When San Jose saw that Pompey and the Mage Federation were unlucky, his heart must have been as sweet as honey, and it was too late to be happy. ”
"Then why are they sending troops?"
"First, we want to put on a show for the human race of the entire continent to show our own justice. Second, they also have to take the opportunity to find out what is going on with the undead. Hala put down the manuscript paper in her hand and sighed helplessly.
"As a fighter, you're good enough. But when it comes to tacit rules between countries, he is obviously still a layman. ”
"As long as the fists are hard enough, it's not up to me to decide what rules are irregular. The lord scoffed at Zara's remarks.
He believed that truth existed only within the range of a bed crossbow, and that problems that violence could not solve could be solved by any other means.
"At most, force can subdue everyone and dare not oppose you openly, but there is absolutely no way to control them. The goblin closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with some interest, "Forget it, don't talk about these boring things." ”
"How's your body doing?" Richard suddenly noticed that his already thin arms had become even thinner.
The blood vessels were hidden beneath the almost translucent flesh, and each beat seemed weak, barely supporting the mangled body.
"It's still so bad, but it's the happiest time I've ever had. Zara suddenly opened her eyes, her face tired and proud, "You know, I'm not far from cracking the first rune. ”
"There are more than three hundred basic runes, almost infinite permutations and combinations, which are more elusive than the stars overhead. The lord sighed, "With your current condition, can you still hold on?"
"Of course not. "Actually, I don't even know if my guess about this rune is accurate. It is entirely possible that everything you do is useless, and in the end it is just a moon in the water. ”
"But I really like the feeling of being powerless even after racking my brains. Following in the footsteps of the sages, exhausting all wisdom in search of truth-" Hirola took a deep breath, his whole body seemed to tremble, "If this is my end, then it would be a great honor to be despicable." ”
"Alas...... If there's anything I can do to help, just ask. ”
If you ask yourself, Richard himself will not be able to do anything to pursue the truth, after all, he is a cheesy rough man. But he can feel a little bit of that feeling, and he deeply admires it.
"Everything was fine, and the servants took good care of me. Zara lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "It's just a pity that the ancient goblins' cognition of the properties of matter is obviously much better than it is now, otherwise the reverse cracking may be smoother." ”
"I might be able to help with that. The lord said suddenly.
"You're finally willing to contribute that weird knowledge?" said Zara with a hearty smile.
