Chapter 156: Fifteen Days at Sea (31)
In the face of Mu Yan's question, Alduin did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "What do you think of Your Excellency the Observer?" I remember that most players on the forum did not have a good opinion of him, and only you gave a relatively pertinent opinion, and it was unanimously agreed by everyone. ”
As soon as he reminded him like this, Mu Yan suddenly remembered the quarrel. The reason for this is that some people question whether the Word of the Word is qualified to play the role, and even sarcastically ridicule him for "how can he be on an equal footing with someone who is in charge of the world like the Soul Shaper and the Lord of the Elements", which has led to fierce discussions among the players.
The poster was an Elven player, and the Elves were filled with atheists and elemental believers. As the god with the most believers, Kanrosh has always had few miracles and few records in books, so he is inevitably criticized. The discussion building, which is tens of thousands of floors high, is filled with all kinds of chaotic saliva, just like a child scolding a war, "I fight", "rebound", "rebound is invalid", "I am invalid, your invalidity". Occasionally, a few convincing enough things also drown in saliva.
It wasn't until Mu Yan went offline to take medicine that he discovered this confusion, he first listed a list of books that existed in the game, about forty or more, and then explained:
“…… From the above records, we can see that the orcs have the custom of remembering their ancestors, believing in fate and reincarnation, which coexists with faith. From this, it is not difficult to deduce that Kanrosh is "fate" and "reincarnation". And from the title "The Prophet", it is not difficult to see that Kanrosh is related to "prophecy". Finally, it is not difficult to see from the fact that the scholars of the Silver Candle Society believe in Kanrosh, and his main purpose is to guide people to learn and create, otherwise there would be no scholarly believers.
"So now we have labels like 'fate,' 'reincarnation,' 'prophecy,' and we're talking about that.
"As we all know, Villefort is a company that pays great attention to cultural formation, and the development of culture is similar, and there are many mythological figures who have these labels in the history of civilization on earth. For example, the three sisters of fate in Greek mythology, whose task is to weave the threads of fate in the world and cut them in order. Another example is Prometheus the Fire Stealer, whose name itself means "prescient", and as a god, he also acts as a teacher to mankind, teaching them everything that can bring good happiness.
"In this way, it is enough to deduce the power of Kanrosh, that is, to avoid disasters in advance and bring the fire of civilization to mankind.
As for why he has not appeared for a long time, the author believes that there are two possibilities, one is that he does not want to interfere with the normal cultural process of mankind, or it is not yet time for him to turn the tide, just like in many film and television works, the protagonist always appears last. The second is that he can't appear, it's a magical world after all, maybe limited by some kind of rules, like Prometheus, he is imprisoned somewhere, and suffers the punishment of bringing civilization to others.
"Of course, the above is just my personal conjecture, and I don't want you to ...... it."
……
Except for a few teases that were quickly drowned in sour saliva, everyone else was very convinced by Mu Yan's verification and speculation, and this war of words quickly came to an end, and even the official couldn't help but come forward and give a thumbs up. Later, Mu Yan shared this conjecture with Principal Wynne, who is also a scholar, and the latter also highly agreed.
"If I were Kanlosh, I would be glad you complimented me like that."
Wynne said so at the time.
As soon as he fell into the memories, Mu Yan couldn't help but smile, after all, the game left him with many good memories.
But the thought of what Alduin said was true made his head flutter. In this way, Kanrosh was not as kind as he thought, at least he was a highly black-bellied fellow, otherwise he would not have made Alduin like this.
That's when Alduin spoke.
"Actually, you guessed right."
What the?
Mu Yan was stunned, obviously he was the one who was trapped, and Alduin would still say good things to that guy? Is this still the one he remembered as the destroyer who spewed Hablon to death without saying a word?
"All of this he did was so that Lokan could continue to be controlled by the woman Ikali." Alduin explains: "That's what I learned over the long years that followed. ”
Mu Yan suddenly realized that something was not right.
"Your Excellency Alduin, by 'long years' you mean...... Shouldn't you have come to this world in the year of the new leaves like me? ”
Alduin grinned, no, it should be said that he smiled at the cracked gums.
"That's the power of the observer. Although I was tricked into going to Twilight Era, it was actually a refuge. Like the thousands of backups he sent out before, once the world of Dusk Era is destroyed, it will be returned to him in the form of feedback, and this time I am the feedback itself.
"Everything was his plan. When I learned that the last official expansion was that the main character was me, I realized that I couldn't hide like this anymore, and instead of watching the number of mages increase step by step, leading to the gradual collapse of the magic web and the destruction of the world, it would be better for me to be the bad guy to end this. So I became the true destroyer of the world, just as Kanrosh thought. After I was defeated for the first time, the same rules that protected all of you players protected me, allowing me to survive the real me, leaving only a Greyhound for you to kill again and again. At this time, my mission was to gather feedback and return to Lokan with this information on the day of the Guanfu Day. ”
Speaking of this, Au Duin suddenly stared at Mu Yan, and the ghost fire in his pupils trembled with excitement.
"And you, you're the core intelligence I've gathered."
This sentence made Mu Yan shudder.
He saw a hint of excitement on the other party's skeletal face, a chilling excitement. It's like the look in Gollum's eyes when he says "My precious" with his ring in "The Lord of the Rings".
"I don't quite understand that." He replied.
"Do you want me to be blunt? You're the chosen one, you're the one he and I have chosen to save the world, and while the backup is still destroyed, you're the only one who's ever had useful feedback. ”
"Wait a minute, Lord Alduin." Mu Yan pinched his brows and sorted out his thoughts.
"Let's go back to the question we just asked, what do you mean by 'long years'? Since I am returning immediately, have I been sleeping since I came to this world, and I didn't wake up until the year of the new leaves? ”
"Not really, human. No matter how many timelines there are, we are all unique. I was there in this world, and then I left, so when I came back, I went back to Heru 45,000 years ago, back to the point in time when he issued the 'rule simulation system'. And you, you are an ordinary person who appeared in "Twilight Era", born in the fishing village of Manarola on the southeast coast of Turing, so when you return to this world, you will also appear at that time, and we are all back to the timeline where we are, do you understand?
"In other words, I have been waiting for forty-five thousand years in the boundless city of Niverheim, just waiting for your arrival."
The ghost fire in Alduin's eyes was even stronger, and he got closer and closer, and Mu Yan could feel the death aura emanating from the skeleton.
"So you know what a long time it was? So you know how excited I am right now? ”
"And what about Lord Canlosh?" Mu Yan took half a step back to open the distance.
At that moment just now, he felt a trace of scorching heat from the cold ghost fire, which was terrifying.
"As you say, he's going to be punished."
Alduin regained his composure.
"Prometheus stole fire for mankind, Zeus had the other mountain gods chain him to a rock in the Caucasus Mountains, and hungry eagles came every day to peck at his newborn liver for more than 30,000 years. In order to force Ikali and my brother away, Kanrosh destroyed all the dragons and elemental creatures of Heru, driving the two of them out of this world once and for all, but also violating Mia's rules.
"This is also the first time that the three Administrators have seen the punishment from Mia, who has been banished to the stream of time, and has only watched the world go to ruin as a spectator, unable to interfere with a single cent. As for Ikali rashly attacking Mangaza and being imprisoned in the magic net, that was later. ”
Mu Yan stared at the other party's face, trying to find traces of lying from above.
But he failed, and these things made perfect sense, so that he couldn't find a flaw.
Mu Yan breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes as if digesting all this.
In front of him, the image of an old man with a white beard appeared in front of him, and his eyes shone with wisdom.
He seemed to want to say something, but before he could finish it, he passed away with the wind.
This scene seems familiar, and the person who also can't say goodbye leaves him a sentence of "there will be no time in the future" and disappears forever.
If all this is true, then thank you, Lord Canlosh.
Thank you for saving everyone.
