Chapter 694: Breakout Nine
Archbishop Mahiza first ordered another way, and then took a slight interest in the hapless man's injuries. On the other side, the underground alien team of Mingxia City, who had stood by before, saw that the battle was completely over, so they cautiously approached and shouted to inquire about the situation, and the hidden meaning was self-evident.
Archbishop Mahiza and several core layers glanced at each other, reached a tacit understanding, and called the interpreter to start negotiating.
"Don't worry, the promise is valid. But until then, our battle has already attracted the attention of the enemy, believing that they will soon come after him. If you don't mind, how about walking and talking?"
"What kind of thing are you little six rings, what qualifications do you have...... an underground alien subconsciously scolded the translator, but he was slapped in the face by the tail of the leader only half of what he said.
"Sorry, this was a small misunderstanding, but it's a good idea to talk while walking. ”
As a translator, the underground alien swallowed saliva to relieve the tension, and Zhiquer hid the first half of the reckless man's sentence, and only translated the second half of the leader's sentence.
After that, the communication became smoother and smoother, and everyone briefly introduced themselves. The Earth Mother God Cult is still not hidden, and the leader of Mingxia City only identifies himself, but she is the eldest daughter of the city lord of Mingxia City, called Xiao Xiao - the onomatopoeia of the wind, and she is also a strong contender for the next city lord of Mingxia City.
In terms of action, they crawled diagonally upwards along the rock wall, and after the introduction of the Earth Mother God Cult and the underground alien leader Xiao Xiao, everyone happened to find a relatively narrow cave. It's a pity that the underground alien clan easily found out that this was a dead end with their own methods, so they had to continue.
Xiao Xiao asked about the identity of the crocodile duke, after all, in the previous battle, it was the most eye-catching. Whether it's the brightness of the whole body, or the suction effect in the Holy Demon Sea.
Although he knew the name of 'Kven Ans', the translator was still dutiful, and the crocodile duke rolled his eyes vaguely, continuing to use the false identity of 'Cven Ans' to be confused.
The special respect for the strong obviously exists everywhere, Xiao Xiao repeated the name 'Kvenance', and flicked his tail rhythmically at the crocodile duke, before continuing: "I don't know the conditions mentioned before, but they count. ”
Archbishop Mahiza smiled and replied, "Actually, the path above the Nine Rings is very simple, don't slack off because it has no effect, try to increase communication with the water system magic medium, and increase the efficiency of absorbing magic power from the Holy Demon Sea as much as possible, and you will cross that line." Of course, this is a very long road, and some people are unable to complete the journey on their own initiative. ”
Xiao Xiao blinked his eyes twice, and there was a feeling of being deceived, but due to the difference in strength between the two sides, he restrained it in time, but he didn't want the other party to have anything to do.
"Madame, don't be impatient. This piece of information sounds a little watery, but it is somewhat confused and willing to pay a big price for it. And that's just the price of standing by before, if the lady is willing to answer a few questions from us, there is more relevant information to give. ”
In fact, here is the hopeful effect of the clarity of the road. Suppose a person is in the desert, and if he walks aimlessly in search of water, he is afraid that he will soon collapse and give up. In other words, if there is a means such as navigation or a progress bar that generates positive feedback, it can last much longer.
Xiao Xiao has an outstanding talent and has never experienced a psychological experience of feeling confused about magic cultivation. But I have also seen the state of several elders, so the two are compared, and I have a faint sense of understanding, and I reluctantly accept the value of this information.
"I just hope that the information behind it is more useful. ”
This answer was obviously a little immature and timid, and Mahiza talked to the interpreter for a few words, confirming that this Howling Lady was equivalent to the level of a human being in her thirties among the underground aliens, and smiled slightly: "Why don't we play a game of questions and answers? You can choose your most valuable question to ask." ”
Xiao Xiao thought about it and agreed directly. "Okay! ”
Simply suppressing the shame of the 'little one', Archbishop Mahiza went to the core and asked what he had already suspected: "You and we don't seem to have much malice, have you not received an order to 'destroy something'?"
"No!" Xiao Xiao replied dryly, and then complained, "Why do you ask these questions too?"
"Is that your problem?" asked Archbishop Mahiza with a smile. Since the most important information has been implemented, I can't bear to fool people under the excitement.
You know, if Mingxia City didn't receive the task of 'destroying the transparent skull', it can explain a lot.
First of all, there is a very powerful guardian in the underground alien city alliance in this area, and he secretly collects silver rings and shards for the 'forces behind the scenes'. And this powerful guardian is also the goal of this mission.
Kemingxia City did not receive the mission, indicating that the 'behind-the-scenes forces' deliberately shielded this powerful underground alien guardian, and it was obvious that the other party was trying their best to avoid the two sides from seeing each other, which also showed that this mission hit the bull's eye.
Secondly, there is also an explanation for the flickering words of the city lord of Greystone City and the pouring out of Blue Mushroom City. The city lord of Greystone City is nothing more than planning to head the rats at both ends and leave a way back for himself, and in the end, everything is prevaricated with 'I don't know'.
Blue Mushroom City should have appeared a strong man who accepted the invitation of the Guardian, and he didn't know how long he had endured before, and he didn't dare to detain and intercept the silver ring at all. Now there's a great opportunity to give it your all.
But when he said that Xiao Xiao was here, he first hurriedly denied it, and after thinking about it, he pointed to the core, and asked the doubts he had for a long time: "Why did you come to the core holy land?"
Coming back to his senses from the chaos of thought, Archbishop Mahiza coughed lightly, feeling a sense of absurdity of 'lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot', but he didn't expect the opponent to also come to attack with a straight ball.
Although there are many ways to solve this problem, considering that the other party is just 'stunned', or lacks experience, it is not stupid. In order to win over this rare ally, it is better to be sincere.
"This is a secret mission of ours, and we are sorry that we can't tell you the details just yet. As compensation, after the replacement, you can also answer an additional question. ”
Dissatisfied with the flicking of his tail, Xiao Xiao groaned slightly, and asked, "Who is the gang before?"
"The bishopric team of the Ifusen Theocracy is our hostile force, and they are supposed to be here to stop our mission. The leader should be called Archbishop Lundi, the earth system crosses that line, and the water system is around the sixth and seventh rings. He is the contemporary head of the Murtock family and a representative of a new faction in the church. He is known for his decisiveness, and there are many rumors ......"
"Well, I'm not interested in hearing that, next question. Well...... Let me think. ”
Archbishop Mahiza waited with a smile, having already guessed that the previous problem was of a corroborating nature, so he simply exposed Archbishop Lundi's old background. The opportunity is rare, so naturally try to be as dark as possible, but it is a pity to ignore the factors that the underground alien race does not care about this.
Archbishop Mahiza raised his eyelids, not annoyed but too lazy to answer, just looking at the crocodile duke. Of course, objectively speaking, the difference in strength and the cultural background are so normal.
"That's what I wondered. The crocodile duke said, glaring at Jiao Ming fiercely, so as not to make people suspect that the two were close to each other, and there would be further complications.
The same doubt, different people ask it, and the degree of attention is naturally different. Archbishop Mahiza organizes the language a little and speaks from the other side.
"Eternal life is obviously a description of a state. That being the case, there needs to be a body of state. Of course, if you don't leave an heir, this eternal life, which has lasted for an unknown amount of time since the appearance of the living body, will be cut off. ”
Jiao Ming was stunned for a moment, and his heart was flooded, as if a door had been opened. In a trance, I even remembered the reason for the name of the crocodile leader Changfu Town. The Crocodile Duke frowned, ruling out the possibility of a hint of threat, and then began to think about the deeper meaning.
"By extension, everything around us, as long as it is alive, has gained a kind of immortality in the sense of 'population'. What do you think?"
"It seems to make sense. Duke Crocodile replied softly, actually a little dizzy. After all, this kind of rambling thing is completely different from fighting cultivation or governance. Jiao Ming roughly understood the truth that the other party was trying to explain, but because of his identity, he had no right to speak, so he couldn't confirm it.
Archbishop Mahiza smiled, "I'm the one who is pulling away. We go back to the beginning, which is eternal life for the individual. Obviously, there are two sides to this.
The first is the definition of 'individual'. We may simply say that 'I' is 'I', but in fact, a person is constantly changing, both in terms of the physical composition of the body, as well as in the soul or the mind. Moreover, there is a very complex interaction between the two.
Take you, for example. Recall your thoughts and actions as a teenager and look back on them today, or regret or smile, and your choices will inevitably be different if you are faced with the same situation. Even before and after you are promoted to the top of the Nine Rings, there will be changes in what you say and do. And with this level of change, do you feel 'you are still you'?
You may think it's nothing. But when this change has been piled up for a hundred years, in the eyes of others, it is likely to be a completely different person. Even you yourself feel like you're no longer yourself. This is a big problem. Whose eternal life is this kind of?"
"What you're saying is a bit complicated. I think...... It's better to confirm that eternal life exists and then consider these. "The crocodile duke tentatively changed the subject, instinctively resisting the statement of 'I am not me'.
Archbishop Mahiza smiled again, his expression suddenly purified, his eyes stared at the crocodile duke, and said slowly: "Of course eternal life exists, and this kind of thing is not so difficult. In fact, Your Excellency has already crossed this threshold on one leg. The fact that I was able to get the Guardian's invitation is proof that the forces behind that thing rarely make a loss-making transaction. ”
Speaking of which, Archbishop Mahiza glanced at the fragments of the mission terminal. Jiao Ming turned his head to stare at his father-in-law, his mind was buzzing, and he couldn't spare any effort to think about the truth or falsehood of the other party's statement for a while. The Crocodile Duke frowned and remained silent, not in the slightest at what seemed to be good news.
"If you can, please be more detailed. ”
"The so-called eternal life means that it will always 'exist', and the eternal subject will always 'exist' in an environment. However, this environment is constantly changing, which is the second aspect of the problem mentioned earlier. Based on our ability to adapt to our environment, we try to divide 'eternal life' into vague levels.
The simplest foundation is to adapt only to the basic environment. For example, if you practice a little more, you will step up with the next foot. After that, even if you don't cultivate and improve, as long as you let go of the mundane world, find a secluded valley, eat and drink every day, and work and rest on time, let alone fight with others. With as little change in the environment as possible, you can live forever until the end of the Age of Magic.
The same is true for the 'immortality of species' that we just talked about, when the climate changes drastically, or other huge impacts, there will be extinctions of species that are not adapted to the new environment. ”
The crocodile duke nodded slowly, but Jiao Ming couldn't hold it back, and raised his hand weakly.
"The little one has any doubts, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
"How did you learn about species extinction?" Jiao Ming first threw out the simplest one as a temptation.
"Secret texts in the church. ”
"But where did the 'Chief Saint' stay?"
Archbishop Mahiza paused for a moment, glanced at Simonk, who had fainted, and then smiled: "It seems that Simunk should have told you something." In fact, not only that, but also the whole set of claims about eternal life is left behind. ”
Archbishop Mahiza had apparently expected this question, but shook his head indifferently. "Sorry, this section is overrun, no comment. However, what can be told to both of them is that this issue is very wide-ranging. If you step in recklessly, the consequences are unpredictable. I believe that the two of them don't want their names to appear on that little thing. ”
Weng and his son-in-law didn't understand it at first, but soon understood the implicit threat of the last sentence. In case some secret information is known, the forces behind the mission terminal release an assassination mission in order to extinguish the mouth, wouldn't it be a wrongful death?
"I belong to a strong group and support each other. What about you?" said Archbishop Mahiza with an unfathomable expression, then pulled the conversation back to the previous point. "As we become more and more adaptable to our environment, we don't need to describe more layers of eternal life, it's just our vague guess anyway, and we may change at some point. But what is certain is that the supreme one can cross the end of the Dharma era, and then resurrect in the new era of magic, and so on. ”
At this point, Jiao Ming probably figured out that the other party's so-called 'eternal life' is not immortality in some strange settings, or even no death attributes, but is closer to the concept of 'excluding natural death' and 'if you don't do it, you won't die'.
