The word gave Gawain a momentary sense of weirdness - a similar sense of weirdness that hadn't seemed to have gone away since he arrived in Talrond.

The dragon kingdom that was different from his imagination, the dragon "painting style" that was different from his imagination, the true face of the dragon god that was different from his imagination, and the ...... that was different from his imagination Ryujin's attitude.

But in any case, he was mentally prepared to face any situation before he set off, and the "dragon of confusion" that he had just witnessed covering the sky and the sun had tempered his spirit, Gawain did not show any abnormality, just nodded calmly, and then sat down very casually on the gorgeous chair closest to him.

Tea with its own golden color appeared out of thin air, filling the golden cup in front of him.

Ryujin Enya sat down across from Gawain, then looked up at Amber and Veronica, "Are you going to stand?" ”

Veronica hesitated for a second and sat down on Gawain's left hand, Amber saw Veronica sit down, and boldly came to the seat on Gawain's right, and deliberately said while sitting down: "...... Then I'll just sit down! ”

After everyone had taken their seats, Hragere stood behind Enya and stood there silently like a squire.

It was a little too quiet for a while, as if no one knew how to open the conversation for this very special meeting, or if the god was waiting for the guests to take the initiative. Gawain was not in a hurry, he just picked up the teacup and took a sip unhurriedly, but the next second he showed a shocked expression: "This tea...... Not bad, but it tastes ...... Wonderful. ”

"It's something I came up with in my spare time, called 'Reflection'," Enya smiled faintly, "There are millions of mortals in the world, and their thoughts and preferences are always different, and the desires of the appetite alone are too numerous to count, so it is better to give them 'Reflection' - what you want most in your heart is in a cup of reflection." ”

Gao Wen held the teacup in his hand, and after hearing the words of the dragon god, his heart immediately moved, and he looked at the god in front of him thoughtfully: "The increasing number of mortals brings more and more wishes, and with the power of the gods, it is impossible to fulfill all their wishes." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but take a sip from his teacup—though he seemed to be more reserved on such occasions, Gawain hadn't tasted Coke for too long.

Ryujin Enya's gaze stayed on Gawain, and after two seconds, his smile became more pronounced—the smile that seemed to have suddenly seen his soulmate after a thousand years of solos. The corners of His mouth turned up, "You know a lot. ”

Gao Wen raised the teacup in his hand slightly: "'Reflection' is indeed a good way to solve the problem of 'mortals have many wishes and cannot be satisfied one by one'. ”

"It's a pity that a glass of 'reflection' alone can't solve all problems, miracles have limits - there is no limit to miracles, but the gods ...... He didn't believe in miracles. ”

The gods don't believe in miracles?

Gawain couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, took another sip of the teacup, and then he looked at Enya and asked very seriously, "Is there a bigger cup?" ”

Drinking Coke from a cup with a capacity of less than 300 milliliters is an insult to Coke – the last insistence of being a Coke party.

Probably even the gods would not have thought that Gawain would suddenly make such a request in such a situation, and the dragon god suddenly showed a stunned expression, but after a few seconds of stunnedness, the god suddenly curled the corners of his mouth, and there was a clear smile in his tone: "Of course there is—I'm starting to appreciate you more and more, 'Gawain Cecil', you're almost one of the funniest humans I've ever met." ”

Gawain accepted the compliment, which he didn't know if it counted as a compliment, and he watched as the teacup in his hand suddenly turned into a large oak cup decorated with a golden hoop, and filled it with the wonderful "reflection" drink that he drank as exactly Coke, and began to steer the conversation in the direction he had planned at the beginning: "Then let's get down to business—as small talk may it be, you know that we're not just going to cross the ocean to another continent for small talk." I have a lot of questions and hope to get answers from you. ”

"If I may answer - if you know enough about the gods, then you should know that the gods do not speak everything to mortals. But on the other hand, I'm a special deity, so I know more and can answer more, at least more than the kid named Melita. ”

Gawain nodded, then asked bluntly, "Do you know anything about the other gods?" ”

Ryujin replied casually: "There is some understanding - it is difficult for the gods to communicate with each other, but I can grasp the general situation of some of the gods through my own way." ”

Gawain then asked, "Then you know...... Is the god of war believed in by the mortals of the Loren continent abnormal? ”

"You know, he's in the final stages of madness, and while I'm not sure when he'll cross the tipping point, he's close to it."

Now that the question has been rolled out, Gao Wen simply asked directly: "Is the madness of the god of war really related to the change in the form of war?" At this stage, apart from the change in the form of war and the hidden danger of the 'tendencies' of the god of war itself, is there any other factor influencing his crazy progress? ”

"The change in the form of war is one of the reasons that hastened His madness, but it is only one of the reasons, as for factors other than the change in the form of war and the so-called 'tendencies'...... Unfortunately, no. The balance of the gods is much more fragile than mortals think, and these two alone are enough. ”

"That'...... Is there any salvation for this? Gawain couldn't help but ask again.

"It's hopeless, let's prepare for a divine war."

Gawain Amber Veronica: "......"

"You look surprised," Ryujin said lightly, "but it's not an answer to surprise. ”

"I ...... It's just that I didn't expect you to answer so bluntly," Gawain didn't know what to do, "I thought you would be more tactful......"

"It doesn't need to be tactful," Ryujin replied, "you need an answer, and it's not complicated—so I'll tell you it." ”

“…… Okay, I think I understand your style," Gawain sighed, then regrouped his words and said, "But do you think that with the power of mortals, you can really fight against the god of war at this time?" ”

“…… I can't give you an answer to this, because I can't deduce what kind of state and form the god of war will intervene in this world," Ryujin's answer seemed to be very honest, as a god who should be omniscient and omnipotent in the minds of mortals, she didn't mind admitting that her deduction was limited here, "That's your god, after all, you have to face it yourself." But I can tell you one thing – at least at this stage, you have a chance to win. ”

"...... at this stage," Gawain immediately noticed the key to the dragon god's answer, and he muttered to himself thoughtfully, "Because as time goes on, the gods will become more and more powerful...... And now, they are not strong enough to be invincible......"

The dragon god heard him talk to himself, and immediately cast a scrutinizing gaze: "I was surprised—you know more than I expected. ”

Gawain calmly met the gaze of the dragon god, and after a brief weighing in his heart, he spoke truthfully: "I learned everything from the god of nature. ”

The dragon god fell silent for a moment, her gaze suddenly became extremely deep, and she seemed to be caught in a short and intense thought, and it was only after a few seconds that he broke the silence softly: "God of nature...... So he is still there. ”

"From the point of view of the god of nature, he is no longer there, but from the point of view of Amone, he is still alive," Gawain nodded, "but he remains in a state of confinement for the time being, and it is estimated that he will remain in this state for a long time to come. He doesn't want to go back to the world for a while—so do I. ”

The dragon god seemed to have suddenly become very interested in Ammon's state, and for the first time he began to take the initiative to ask Gawain about things: "Ammon has maintained himself after leaving the godhood, hasn't he?" ”

Of course, Gawain was willing to answer the other party's question - in this essentially unequal "conversation", he needed to grasp as much "conversation capital" as possible to exchange with the gods in front of him, and he couldn't ask for the initiative to have problems in his own hands: "It seems that yes - although I don't know the god of nature when he was still in a god state, judging from his current state, except that he can't move, he is in a pretty good situation." ”

"It seems that He ...... He has a lot to say to you, and as a former god, he seems to trust you quite a bit. ”

"Maybe it's because there are so few people who can communicate with him," Gawain said with a slight joke, "and despite being out of the godhood, he is still a 'god' who retains his divine body, and not every mortal can come up to him and talk to him." ”

At this point, he noticed that the dragon god seemed to be thinking a little, so he took the initiative to stop and wait for the god to speak on his own.

After a moment, the dragon god raised his eyes again, but asked a seemingly unrelated question: "It is said that you held a funeral for the goddess of magic. ”

Gao Wen suddenly coughed lightly: "This ...... This is indeed the case. ”

"You've done ceremonies across the country, you've sprinkled 'ashes' in front of millions of people – and you've written a eulogy for a god yourself."

Gawain couldn't help but cough lightly again: "This ...... And so it is. But I'm doing it for a purpose, to ......"

The dragon god interrupted him, "The goddess of magic is actually the same as the god of nature, just trying to find a way out of the godhood—isn't it?" ”

Gawain felt a little strange, but under the gaze of the dragon god Enya's eyes that seemed to be like an abyss, he finally nodded: "That's true. ”

The dragon god was silent for a moment, and suddenly said to himself as if with a sigh, "Then it seems that he has indeed succeeded......"

I don't know if it's an illusion, Gawain actually felt that there was some kind of envy in the dragon god's sigh.

He didn't delve into the question, because his instincts told him that the other person would never answer it head-on.

The dragon god's gaze then turned to Veronica, who never spoke, and even sat there without much movement.

"Frankly, I didn't expect to meet a living 'Gondor Man' at the same time when I invited 'Gawain Cecil,'" he said with a slight smile at Veronica, in a gentle tone, "I'm glad I did, it's a bonus. ”

Veronica immediately frowned, and her fingers seemed to clench unconsciously: "You...... See? ”

"Don't think of me as too closed and blind," said the dragon god, "and though I live in these ancient palaces, my eyes are keen—I am so impressed by the fleeting and glorious mortal empire that I thought it would even grow to ...... Unfortunately, everything came to an abrupt end. ”

At this, the god shook his head, as if he genuinely regretted the fall of the Gondor Empire seven hundred years ago, before he looked at Veronica and continued, "You were once a jewel among those human beings, so dazzling that they even caught my attention, and I saw you from afar—but only at that.

"When your glorious empire died, Tarlund even shook, and without your knowledge, there were even dragons who mourned for you.

"I don't know how you 'survived', your current state seems to me a bit ...... It's wonderful, and my eyes can't see through the deepest part of you. I can only see that there is something incongruous in your soul...... Would you like to explain? ”

Veronica looked into the eyes of the dragon god for a long time before lowering her eyelids, and said slowly but firmly as if she was resisting some impulse, "It's just the price of survival." ”

"In that case, then I won't ask," Ryujin nodded quite eloquently, and then really didn't ask Veronica again, but turned his gaze to Amber, who was slowly sucking Amber while holding the teacup, "You're another accident...... Funny little girl. ”

"Hey," Amber immediately put down her glass, sat up a little nervously, and then leaned forward again, "Why am I an accident too?" ”

"Who stuffed you into this body?" The dragon god asked curiously.

Amber froze.

Two seconds later, Miss Half-Elf's eyes widened, "A shadow dweller asked me about this before!" You...... How do you tell ......"

"I happen to know a few things about the Shadow Realm—though I'm not a god in charge of the Shadow Realm," the dragon god interrupted Amber, "the Shadow Dwellers...... That's why I'm a little surprised when I see you, son, who injected you into this body? That's quite an achievement. ”

"It's related to a secret experiment in the Gondor era," Gawain replied after glancing at Amber to make sure the Heartless Eye was unresponsive, "an experiment that transforms and fuses living organisms between the shadows and the present world. Amber is the only one who succeeds. ”

“…… Is it Gondor again," the dragon god shook his head slowly, "then all this is even more regrettable. ”

At this time, Amber seemed to suddenly think of something, and suddenly shouted a little excitedly: "Oh, by the way, speaking of the gods of the Shadow Authority, have you seen the relationship between me and the Shadow Goddess?" I'm telling you, I'm the Chosen Shadow God! Do you know the Shadow Goddess? ”

"Shadow Goddess? Night lady? The dragon god didn't care at all about Amber's sudden slight collision, he seemed to be a little interested after hearing the other party's words, and looked at the latter seriously, and then shook his head, "You do have an extremely powerful shadow protection on you, but I don't see any faith connection between you and the gods...... Not even the slightest trace of it could be seen. ”
