Chapter 169: The Priests
The explanation of the concept of "Paritians", although well heard, was still incomprehensible to the Lepelians. The sky overhead, the ground beneath your feet, and the sound of flowing water in your ears are all familiar. But when there are suddenly more things that do not belong to this world in these commonplace pictures, all the familiar scenery suddenly becomes a strange and mysterious spectacle, which makes them dizzy, and the short distance of dozens of steps seems to have been walked for a hundred years.
"Standing in the water—with the fins on his body is Priest Vadrian, and the whole body is Priest Boulder. On the shore—the blue-green hair was Priest Sylvin, the pink haired and tentacled Priest was Priest Celes, the thin-winged translucent Priest Severa, and the misty Priest beside Priest Paritian was Priest Smog. Sitting on the white rocks—with black wings—is the Priest of Veloch. Standing on the edge of the rock, with ice-blue hair, was Priest Jofrey, and next to him was Priest Ryssercy. ”
When Mano mentions Priest Ryssersi, Mirai Sukaranna can't help but take a closer look, it is the legendary Mano's father. However, unlike the Demons, Priest Rysersi is in the form of Veloch.
However, his hair color and wings are not the same as those of the Veloch. The eyeballs are like black crystals, the pupils are oval and shining with strange colors, the skin is white and flawless, the body is tall and magnificent, the wings are huge and gorgeous, and the hair and feathers are magnificent and dazzling. The Velochs have only one long tail, while the Priest Rysersi has three.
The brilliant colors and dark eyes form a strong and eerie contrast, giving people an inexplicable sense of fear.
Mirai Sukarlana didn't feel a chill in his palms, and suddenly realized that this Priest Resesi could not have casually talked to the Lepelians like Priest Sirwin, Priest Boulder, or Priest Smog. The spontaneous fear forced him to look away involuntarily.
Is that really Mono's father? There is no resemblance to him in terms of appearance or personality. Mirai Sukarana couldn't help but look back in confusion, just in time to see Mono looking down at him, with a helpless smile, as if to say: Look, I knew you would have this expression......
"Priest. Mono folded his hands on his chest and greeted the priests with the etiquette of a streamer, and Mirai, Yan Shu, and Sang Wu also stood up politely. The rest of the Lepeilian people looked a little cramped, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
At this moment, there was a sudden "whoosh", and the priest of Vadrian, who was in the water, came to everyone like lightning, and the Lepelian people were startled to retreat several steps. "Oh, it's Lepelian......" I saw him observing them condescendingly and with great interest. Soon, he found a familiar guy in the crowd, and he stepped forward, pulled people's hair with his hand, and said with a smile: "You are also here, Lepelian......"
"Yes, when I said goodbye last time, I said that I would come to you if I had the chance......" Sultius shyly teased his hair and reminded him in a whisper, "You forgot again, my name is Sultis." ”
"I know you're a Lepelin named Quetis. Priest Vadrien laughed.
Remembering his name, but never calling him by name, calling him Lepelian every time, Quettis couldn't help but feel a little lost, but there was nothing he could do about these overly beautiful and teaser-loving Waldrion.
The rest of the Lepeilian people had already been stunned by this unusual priest, especially Future, Sangwu, and Yanshu. They had always thought that the priests of the Streamer Clan were either cold and peaceful, or strange and unapproachable, and this priest who loved to laugh and play tricks on people was really surprising. Although he seemed beautiful and harmless, no one dared to underestimate him, and they all froze in place, allowing him to play tricks.
He tugged at their clothes inquiringly, playing with their hair for a while, pinching their cheeks for a moment, completely treating them as strange little creatures: "These Lepelian people are a little interesting, Mono, where did you find them?"
The simple and honest Titis was fine, he had long been used to being teased by the Vadrians, and just stood there shyly. Others are a little at a loss, especially someone like Noro, who is so arrogant and cold. He never expected that one day, he would be treated like a child, and what was worse was that his body gradually became hot, and he really didn't know what to do. Although Mu Qi claims to like beautiful women, he is not a person who is easily tempted, but at this moment, he has forgotten where he is. It was a beauty that was not of this world, and he felt nothing but heartbeat and amazement.
The scene in front of him reminded Mo Ye of his first encounter with the Vadrians, when he had also been teased by the Vadrians for a long time because of this Lepelian form, and smiled helplessly: "I didn't find them, they live in Jianing City in the forest." Today, the future is because I want to consult the priest about something, so I brought him here. ”
Hearing this, Priest Vadrien leaned closer to Future Sukaranna, looked at it carefully, and then smiled knowingly, "Oh, I see, I know......"
The strange and beautiful face that suddenly approached, and the dazzling streamers in the eyes, seemed to be able to take away the souls of others. Future Sukaran only felt his heart beat wildly, and his back began to ache faintly, and the intriguing words of Priest Vadrien made him break out in a cold sweat, for fear that the priest would reveal his long-hidden taboo in public.
But Priest Vadrien clearly had no such intentions, and he smiled and pulled away, then spread his brilliant fins and floated back into the water with a speed that was unexpectedly fast.
"Whew-" Future couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Mono whispered, "Don't worry, the priest just wants to trick you." Be careful, though, for the Vadrians possess terrifying abilities for soul manipulation. Of all the physical forms of the Streamers, no one could resist their temptation except for the Boulders. Moreover, they can also read other people's memories. But don't worry, what you don't want people to know, he won't say. ”
"What?!...... Do you know that I ......" Future was amazed.
"Haha, of course you do! Have you forgotten the Smog and the Boulder, who also have the ability to touch the essence and read consciousness, respectively, and are able to understand everything, even if they are not memories. Mono chuckled softly again, "I'm afraid Priest Vadrien has read all your memories, but there is nothing to hide for a long time. ”
Hearing this, Future was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter. Fortunately, there are no such extreme emotions as "hatred" in the soul of the Streamer, and he will not be punished because of historical problems, otherwise, he would have died many times.
"Now I finally understand?haha......" Mano patted Mirai on the shoulder comfortingly, and reminded, "Don't you have something to ask the priest?"
Coming Sukarana came to Priest Paretian with trepidation, then took something out of his bosom, carefully held it in his hand, and asked Priest Paretian, "Priest, can you help me see what material this dagger is made of?"
The first time I saw the Paritians was during the battle at the beginning of the year, and if they just stood quietly on the sidelines, they looked elegant and noble. However, once you enter the combat state, the momentum will change suddenly, cold and terrifying. They usually harvest the lives of their enemies in the most rapid and effective way, without even giving them time to catch their breath. After the war, the Paretian returned to their habitat in the eastern part of the forest with the Vilochi, so that Future Sukarana had not had the opportunity to come into contact with the Paretians.
Today, he had come to Priest Paritian on purpose, and it had been decided after careful consideration, and even if the messenger had not visited, he would have to find an opportunity to come sooner or later. For in that war, he had witnessed the sudden growth of silvery-white sharp thorns from the fingertips of the Paritians in a state of battle. The sharp thorns, like the scales on the back of his hand, shone like jewels, easily severing Lepelian's metal weapon. Therefore, Future Sularana suspected that the dagger of unknown material in his hand might have something to do with the sharp thorns that suddenly grew from the fingertips of the Paritians.
Of course, if it was just to find out the material of the dagger, he might not have ventured to find out the priest of Paritian. What really made him concerned was why Shi Jiadi or Assi would give him such a precious dagger, and he never thought that their purpose was as simple as defending himself, and there must be some other purpose implied in it. But in the past two years, I have been thinking about it day and night, but I have never had a clue. In fact, this dagger may be related to the streamer, which is just his own speculation. Therefore, I wanted to take this opportunity to see if I could be lucky enough to get some information other than the material to comfort my long-standing confusion.
The priest of Paretian took the dagger, drew it from the fishskin scabbard, and after a glance he handed it back to Miku, and said, "Do you think it has anything to do with the Paritians?"
Future Sukarana nodded, but heard the priest of Paretian deny, "Although the material is similar, it is not made of something in the body of the Paritian. ”
"Isn't it?" Future was surprised, thinking that his guess should not be too far off.
"Well, it's made from the shell of the Streamerman's egg. Priest Paritian gave the exact answer.
"Egg husk?" the future is once again confused.
Seeing his dazed face, Priest Paritian knew that he didn't know anything about the eggs, so he glanced at the priest of Smog not far away, and the other party understood, nodded his head, and then drifted away, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
