Chapter 187: Six Hundred and Sixty-Six Reincarnations (6)
Imotena.
The four simple words seemed to have magical power, and for a while, the atmosphere of the entire space stagnated, and everyone looked at the old man's face on the rock wall in horror.
"Clerk of the Queen!?"
"It can't be!"
"Because...."
Delinike's words were not finished, for before that he had been interrupted by the old man's face.
"I know."
"There's an Imotna in the outside world, right?"
The old man's face remained unchanged, but the desolation in his eyes became more and more serious: "Since countless years ago, after Shambhala gained eternal life, everything has never been the same again..."
β.... Besides, if eternal life is attained, then it will be enough. β
"What do you mean!"
Now the most sensitive to the word immortality, Delin Ike, directly grasped the loophole in the old man's face, and asked sharply, while the old man's face glanced at him indifferently, as if through the helmet, he saw Delin Ike's eyes full of greed and desire.
"What do you mean... Scold. β
"It's literal."
"Where is there any eternal life? Swindle! It's just a scam! β
The old man's face suddenly burst out laughing, and the laughter was filled with unspeakable grief, but Delinac was still unwilling, believing that seeing is believing and hearing is false.
"In that case, how did Shambhala survive to this day?"
"Don't talk about others"
"But Queen Shambhala is the best testimony of eternal life!"
Delin Ike's questioning is also questioned by others, including the players, who are also curious, after all, even the script introduction says that Shambhala has gained immortality.
From the player's point of view, [Goddess's Love] has indeed given Shambhala immortality.
There is no doubt that this is different from what the old man's face said.
So.... Who's right?
Is Shambhala's eternal life real or fake?
"Queen?"
The voice of the old man's face was slightly hollow, and it took a while to react: "Queen.... Queen.... Ahh β
.... Iyeta?
Who's that?
Naming Waste's expression was serious, and he said word by word: "Today's Shambhala Queen, the name is Aurora..."
Even the name of the queen is not right, the authenticity of the old man's face who calls himself "Imotna" may still need to be verified... Just when everyone thinks so.
"Aurora?"
"Haha, hahaha, hahaha!"
"Queen Aurora!"
When the old man heard the name, he was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed out loud: "There is only one queen of Shambhala, and that is Iyeta, Aurora..... You must have seen the secret treasure of the goddess, so do you know who the goddess is? β
"Who is the goddess.....
The name was wasted, thinking of the system prompt he got before, as if he had a guess, and the statement after the old man's face also verified his guess.
I saw that the old man's face and voice were hoarse, word by word, as if he was chanting, and recited:
"You are the first ray of sunshine in the morning."
"You are the messenger who declares the darkness gone."
"Lord of the Dawn and Dawn."
"The goddess of hope and expectation."
"Aurora"
...........
With the sound of recitation, the dark underground space gradually brightened, and there was no light source to be seen, but the brightness naturally increased, just like the book of Genesis in the Bible said, God said that there should be light, so there was light, and everything became bright.
The improvement of brightness also makes the real scene of the underground space appear in front of everyone's eyes.
βοΌοΌοΌβ
At this moment, everyone's heartbeat accelerated a lot, just because this underground space was actually a huge altar, and around the altar, there were countless dried corpse skeletons, and the location where everyone was located was the passage to the altar, and it was also the only place where there were no corpses.
"Here it is....!"
"This is where the rites of immortality used to take place."
The old man's voice was faint: "Countless years ago, that mysterious man brought the faith of the goddess to Shambhala, claiming that it would give us eternal life, and all we had to do was to hold an ordinary sacrifice, who would have thought, that was the beginning of a nightmare." β
"Nightmares?"
"Not bad."
The old man's face did not mean to hide, perhaps because he hadn't spoken to anyone for too long, he seemed to be full of conversation: "Do you think the original immortality ceremony is over?" β
"Nope!"
"The Rite of Immortality continues to this day! All the Shambhala leaders who participated in the ceremony, except for the queen and me, all died and became monsters, and then attacked Shambhala City, which led to the birth of new monsters, day after day, year after year, blood and fire were the goddess's favorite sacrifices....."
"Eternal life! Right! Eternal life! You tell me first! What is the so-called eternal life! β
β.... Eternal life? β
The old man's face picked at the corners of his mouth made of rocks, looking rather playful: "Didn't that Aurora tell you?" She should have mentioned how many reincarnations this was, right? β
"Reincarnation.... Reincarnation ....."
Delin Ike still doesn't know why, but the name is lost but he fell into deep thought, in an instant! He only felt a flash of inspiration.
"Not eternal life! Is it reincarnation? β
"Wouldn't an invasion of Warcraft like this happen every once in a while? Every time it happens, Shambhala will be completely destroyed, and after it will be restarted, and the era not long after the end of the ritual of return, it has been repeated over countless years, and it has continued to this day? β
This is pure speculation.
There is no theoretical basis, and if anything, it is a bold speculation from the perspective of a modern player.
However....
"That's right."
This speculation is true.
The old man admitted calmly: "There has never been any eternal life, there are just reincarnations again and again, and every time there is a reincarnation, the memories of all Shambhala people will be tampered with, and what is hidden under the surface of Shambhala's immortality is a bloody sacrifice that has lasted for countless years....!" β
"Sacrifice... Wait, that Imortna outside, although he doesn't know reincarnation, he obviously retains a lot of memories, he ....."
The sound of abandonment came to an abrupt end.
What is the purpose of that Imotena outside?
Destroy Shambhala.
What are the conditions for reincarnation to open?
Shambhala falls.
In other words.
β.... Is he a puppet of the goddess? It's a script character used to start reincarnation, and his memory is not cleansed, but completely distorted by the goddess!? β
At this moment, the name was abolished, and the thinking was completely cleared.
γGoddess's Loveγ
γThe Cruelty of the Goddessγ
γAuthority of the Goddessγ
What these three secret treasures built was not the immortal prison imagined by Imotena outside, but a simple bloody sacrifice! It's just that in the end, all memories will be cleansed, everything will be repeated, if you have to say prison, it is also a prison of reincarnation.
In this way, it can also explain the action pattern of the Imotena outside.
Originally, as the Queen's Clerk, if Imotena just wanted to rebuild Shambhala, he could use the way of scheming, and he didn't have to use the so-called violence.
But in the end, Imotena used the most violent solution, and in such a way, he actually waited for so many years to start executing, there were many doubts in it, and now with the explanation of the old man's face, there are reasons for the wrongness.
In this way, the root of this prison .....
"It must be Shambhala's fourth treasure!"
"What's the name of the fourth secret treasure?"
Naming Waste stared at the old man's face on the rock wall, his expression was extremely serious: "Also, since Queen Shambhala has been replaced by the goddess Aurora, what is the matter with you?" According to you, since all the high-level people have been reduced to the original demonic beasts, how did you survive? β
"Survive? Do you call me surviving? β
β.... No, it's not. β
"I did survive..... But how did I survive? How could I possibly survive? Even if I survive, how do I keep my memory? β
"Why?"
The old man's face was instead turned down, and his voice became lower and lower, more and more erratic, as if he was recalling the extremely distant past.
In a flash! The voice of the old man's face suddenly rose, but there was no horror in his tone, but a little surprise.
"It's the Queen! Right! It was the queen who kept me alive! β
"That evil god didn't completely replace the queen!"
"Reincarnation.... Transmigration..... How many times has this been reincarnated? β
The rhetorical question on the old man's face made Delin Ike subconsciously frown: "You haven't told me yet...."
"Answer me!"
The old man's face seemed to have fallen into some kind of extremely irritable state, his voice was loud, and the face made of rock looked extremely hideous, as if he would do it if he didn't agree with him: "This is the first reincarnation!" β
"Six hundred and sixty-sixth!" Naming Waste hurriedly replied, "This is the six hundred and sixty-sixth reincarnation!" β
"Six hundred and sixty-six ....."
After receiving the reply, the old man's face calmed down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his voice became stable again, and he only cared about muttering these words in a low voice.
After a long time, the voice of the old man's face sounded again: "Don't you want to know what the fourth secret treasure is?" β
"I'll tell you."
"The fourth treasure is called the Goddess's Mercy, and the Queen once told me that when the six hundred and sixty-sixth reincarnation returns, the Goddess will re-elevate the throne, and at that time she will give Shambhala the last mercy, so this fourth treasure is the goddess Aurora herself."
As soon as the old man's voice fell, the same system information popped up in the system panel of all players.
