Chapter 33: The Superior
Karil continued to share gossip with Avina, but Huang Yu's attention had been distracted elsewhere, the situation of Yanan's generation was very strange, it seemed to be still in the real world, but it was unscientific like in a dream, monsters and hunters would leave corpses after death, and some would suddenly disappear without a trace, the natives may not have noticed this, but as a veteran player who had died all the way through the game to clear the level, it was impossible for him to ignore such important details.
'Hunters don't seem to have the ability to dream yet?' He thought to himself, "The ancient hunters should still be trapped in endless nightmares and unable to break free, and Amidala, who is the family of the Superior Lord, has not yet appeared, so what am I in now in a world where reality and dreams intersect?" Or is it a world that has fallen into dreams? ’
He couldn't figure it out, but instead felt a dull pain in his brain that hadn't hurt for a long time, which made him immediately decide to give up thinking about it.
Huang Yu raised his right hand and looked at the palm that was no different from a normal person, he seemed to be able to see the blood flowing in the blood vessels under the skin, he knew what the blood therapy would bring, and he also knew what the blood therapy would bring, and he also knew what the blood therapy had, the background of the whole world was confusing, but there were always some things that could be certain, such as the parasites in the blood, such as the sudden increase in mental power, if he put it in the game, it would probably be equivalent to the increase of spiritual vision, opening up another horizon.
At least for now, the world in his eyes hasn't changed much, the sky is weird but not repetitive, the scars on the pig monsters are just scars, and there are no giant monsters with tonsil heads clinging to the towering buildings......
'There's still a chance. Huang Yu said to himself in his heart, as for what is that opportunity? He looked at Ivina and Karil, and shook his head silently, he couldn't tell.
For samsara, there are infinite possibilities when they are still alive. He silently said a word to himself in his heart, which he often reminded himself, not only to increase his courage in the face of danger, but also to remind him to continue to live with hope, and those who have no hope are like the dynamite hunter Buckley who died in Anan, who kept hunting and killing kidnappers between the church town and Ahagul, just to give himself a reason to live.
"Charles? Charles? Evina shouted a few times, which made Huang Yu suddenly come back to his senses: "What's wrong?" ”
Evina looked at him deeply, this excellent huntress has always had a keen intuition, and her intuition told her that Charles had a secret, but she didn't ask, just said lightly: "Calil and I have already discussed, let's go to Byron Weiss together." ”
"Good! Then let's go as soon as possible! Huang Yu said simply, he didn't want to stay in Ahagul for another minute, in case the Mansians released their figures, they would be dead, this is not a game world, nor a hunting dream realm, there is no courier fog to keep that thing in a specific place.
……
Byron Weiss, which was once a sacred place.
This sacredness is not the same as the sacredness of the healing church, and Byron Weis, towering by the lake in the moonlight, is a temple of knowledge, and scholars have diligently studied the relics left by the ancient Sumerians, intending to determine what the cause of the disappearance of this ancient and powerful civilization was overnight, whether it was an unstoppable natural disaster or disease, or the Sumerian collective ascension or crossing, they all wanted to know the truth.
But the truth is always heavy, sometimes so heavy that it can crush those who know, and in the world of blood, the words truth and knowledge are a burden that human beings cannot carry.
The only person who had the opportunity to carry this burden, but finally chose to give up and retreat, Master William, was here.
The people who once stood with him, betrayed him or left him, those people have their own ideas, have their own ideas, but they have undoubtedly failed, from beginning to end, the closest person to success is only Master William, he gave up what those people pursued, he survived, this result has no way to judge whether he is correct or not, but correctness is also a kind of truth, in this world, many times the truth is really not important.
The beauty of Byron Weiss will intoxicate everyone who sees it, just like a person who admires magic sees Hogwarts on a cliff, and Byron Weis, who stands by the lake, is quietly surrounded by the lake under the shroud of the moonlight, so that those who look at the teaching building feel that knowledge should be like this, quiet, mysterious, beautiful, and incomparably desirable.
But today's Byron Weiss, only the mystery remains, gloomy, dim, eerie, without the illumination of lights, without the vitality brought by scholars, it is like an ancient relic from a century ago, and it does not need any special effects to have the qualification to be used as a horror movie scene.
The young man in the uniform of the student opened the iron door and guided the three people who had come from afar into the ancient academy, there was not much expression on his pale face, only the eyes were much larger than normal, and there were many more bulges on the skin, as if there were fleshy bumps lurking under the flesh, and he was extremely mad when he was expressionless, and even more so when he pulled out an ugly smile.
"Please go this way, the master is on the viewing platform." Byron Weis's student voice led the three of them with a slight hum, and Karil and Evina couldn't help but look at him in disbelief, but Huang Yu was extremely calm, looking up at the distance as he walked, a huge silver disc hung in the sky, and the cold and incomparably cold light fell, spilling on his body to add to the coldness.
There was not much unusual look on the student's ugly face, and when he walked into the laboratory building, a few shadowy figures did not know what they were doing in front of the table, Karil lowered her head and only looked at the road, but Evina glanced at the table with some curiosity, but the light was dim, only a little bright to guide the spiral staircase to the center, and she didn't notice what was in the bottles and cans placed on the table.
Walking up the stairs and walking to the third floor step by step, the student took out a bunch of keys, opened the closed door, and made a gesture of invitation: "Master William is waiting for you." ”
The bright moonlight shone into the house from outside the door, the three of them looked at each other, Huang Yu took the lead and walked out, and when he stepped out, he saw the huge figure lying on the huge rocking chair, such a body shape is no longer like what a normal human can have.
In front of the viewing platform is a calm and waveless lake, sparkling under the moonlight, adding a lot of tranquility and tranquility in the quiet moonlit night, among the three, only Huang Yu still retains a lot of habits brought by the civilized world, looking at this beautiful scenery with a little distraction, Karil and Evina have long been on the edge of life and death, and the monster hunters with bloody hands have long lost the mood to appreciate inconsequential things.
The chaise longue swayed slightly, and a kind and wise voice sounded from the unprotected platform: "Karil, I'm glad to see you again, but I hope you don't return to Byron Weis. ”
Karil saluted Master William with a respectful look and was extremely serious: "Mentor, I have encountered some things, I don't know what to do next, I hope you can give me guidance......
There was a slight sentimentality in Master William's voice, and although he was bloated and fat, his voice was as clear as moonlight: "My child, although you are my student, you are also an adult...... But since you have come to me, then, go to the chapel of Orton, and you know where it is, and stay there and do not leave until the time is right......"
Karil listened at a loss, and she told Master William everything about what happened between the church and Yanan, the chaise longue was always shaking rhythmically, and Master William, who was wearing a teaching uniform, closed his eyes thoughtfully, but his expression seemed like he would suddenly fall asleep in the next second.
Huang Yu remained silent, allowing Evina to join Karil's narration, and after a long time, Karil stopped speaking as if she had suddenly woken up, and Evina also stopped abruptly with her.
Master William's voice sounded just right: "Karil, child, I understand, your decision is correct, leave Byron Weiss now." ”
Karil nodded: "Yes, Master, Evina, Charles, let's go!" ”
Ivina was about to leave after her, but the two suddenly found that Huang Yu had no intention of moving his steps, and seeing that the two of them showed surprised expressions, Huang Yu said slowly: "You guys go first, I want to ask the master some questions about the runes in my eyes...... Don't worry, I'll keep up with you. ”
Karil looked at him, "We can wait for you outside." ”
Huang Yu looked at the two of them and shook his head: "Don't wait for me, don't wait for me, Byron Weiss is not a suitable place to stay for too long." ”
The first reaction of Evenna, who had the sharpest combat instincts, was to look at Master William, the bloated but inexplicable elder was still lying on his huge chaise longue without change, the slender and delicate staff in his hand was pressed into his arms with his closed hands, and when she looked at it from the front, Evina was surprised to find that she had heard the name too many times, but she was wearing a strange hat that covered both eyes.
Evina and Karil didn't persuade Huang Yu again, but silently left the viewing platform, but even if they didn't confirm, Huang Yu knew that they would try to wait downstairs for him to leave together.
"They're not going to stay here." Master William's voice was a little hollow, as if he knew what Huang Yu was thinking in his heart: "As soon as they walk out of this building, they will leave Byron Weiss." ”
Huang Yu nodded, not asking why.
Silence suddenly became the theme between the two, and the moon in mid-air did not change with the passage of time, as if it had been fixed in angle and position in the sky, becoming a pure decoration on the canopy.
Huang Yu still remained silent, this silence was not some kind of dialectics or some psychological tactic, he just didn't know what to say, he knew too much, he was afraid that he would mention some sensitive information if he didn't pay attention to it, Master William was not as simple as his appearance.
A cold wind blew on the lake, and Master William suddenly spoke: "Stranger, are you also seeking the knowledge of the 'superior one'?" ”
