Chapter 283: Macoma and the Giant

He opened the picture book and continued to read the story of "The GiantandMakoma" to the little girl.

ISSAC101 recounts this ancient story in a slow voice in his deep bass voice. …… His low, magnetic voice made everyone in the restaurant look at him slightly.

…… The great Macoma was hungry and thirsty after a long trek and after striking down eleven giants, but fortunately, he ate the eleven giants in the sack, threw their remains in the sack, and finally regained his strength. He came to the end of the world, the Well of the End, and there awaited him was Sacatirina.

…… It towers into the clouds, its posture is hidden by the clouds, it has an inhuman posture, its name is the end of all things, the earth, the sea, a qiē creature. Zacatirina shouted in a thunderous voice.

Makoma responded, "It's me, Makoma, the greatest person who is fearless." ”

He said that he had come from afar, and that the spirit of his ancestors had made him defeat Sacatirina, so that he would not be able to claim merit and do nothing, and thus lose the will to fight, and become a bloated old man instead of a warrior.

"I obey the command of the spirits of my ancestors, and command me to defeat you, lest I stay still, and become fatter and fatter like you, and hate myself then."

It took a while for Zacatilina to whisper, "Very well, Makoma!" "I also hate myself, no one is as big as me, I'm always alone." Be careful! He suddenly bent down, grabbed the makoma, and threw it to the ground.

Makoma let out a bull-like roar, and he bent down to exert his strength, and his body instantly became stronger and taller than before.

The two fought on the spot, and he was originally defeated by Sacatirina, because he absorbed the power of the giants, and was able to match Zacatirina.

They fought day after day, winning or losing. Eventually, on the seventh day, their strength grew smaller and smaller, as if the sun was setting little by little, and at last they fell to the ground together, unconscious.

However, after Makoma's death, the sorcerer took his bag and opened it, revealing mountains, rivers, forests, plants, and all kinds of creatures.

"The last one to come out of the bag was me."

"The Storyteller" and the last page of the picture book appear, and instead of speaking in the form of a narration, a face is revealed on the page. He was a thin, indigenous African man with tattoos all over his body.

"I have seen the world emerge from the shadow of dragon domination and be revitalized."

"I got Makoma's body and buried it with his warhammer......"

"I carved a tombstone for him with my own hands and made a coffin. After that, I lived for another 500 years, married and had children, but my whole life seemed to follow his back......"

"Now that I finally don't have to, I pass on his story, and I pray that the wind god will take away my dust!"

On the last page of the picture book, the mysterious storyteller finally turns into a mummy, which is then blown by a gust of wind and scattered on the ground, turning into a puddle of sand.

issac101's voice paused, and feih004, who was not far from him, suddenly said, "Nice story, issac101." ”

"Really? That's what I thought I did......"

"But what's in your hand?" feih004 gestured to the picture book he was holding in his hand.

issac101 raised the picture book in his hand, pointed to the cover of the picture book with the other hand, and said: "'The GiantandMakoma' is based on an ancient African myth, and the author of the picture book seems to be called ...... Douglas. ”

"That's it!" feih004 whispered as if muttering: "I really didn't expect to play such a play." ”

"feih004, did you just say something?"

"No, I'm afraid you heard me wrong."

feih004 smiled and shook his head, indicating that issac101 had probably misheard.

There was a loud sound, I don't know where the wiring in the dining room was broken, all the indoor lighting facilities were collectively cut off, and the entire crew dining room fell into a dark environment.

"Boom!"

A hole was torn open in the ceiling, and a terrified figure roared while tearing the ceiling and killing it directly.

"Fake, what the hell is this?"

Fat man uxo641 raised the flashlight in his hand, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a very terrifying scene, if several corpses melted and spliced together a huge monster, it shook the ugly, mixed with several heads, and spat out yellow liquid from the corners of its mouth, and crawled down from the ceiling hole in the wall.

"What the hell is this biological tissue structure, which looks like a large number of NEC corpses mixed together......"

The monster, with only three feet supporting the ground, spat out an octopus-like red tongue from its mouth, the root of which looked like a fusion of several infantile NEC corpses.

"Is it a monster in a mutant form again?"

issac101 has seen most of the research content of link7570, basically some conventional images of corpse variant NEC can be explained by biology, but the monsters he encounters are beyond his understanding.

"This ...... Could it be the effect of the 'aggregation ceremony' mentioned in link7570? ”

link7570 is a Unification Christian, coupled with the stubbornness and paranoia of his personality, and the research log sometimes highlights the crazy words that he was born as a Unification Christian. …… Therefore, you can't understand all the records in the log, so you can only look through them at will.

What particularly bothered ISSAC101 was that he would write a large number of incomprehensible passages in the places where he explained and marked footnotes, many of which were Unification doctrines. For example, the current aggregation ritual is supposed to be a religious concept, but according to link7570's records, the aggregation ritual is more than that, NEC will attract nearby corpses, and then fuse together to form a larger corpse variant.

NEC dead cells are like large signal towers, constantly emitting various signals, summoning nearby NECs to gather corpses, and through this strange way, NEC will get a deeper evolution.

"Eventually, all NECs will be sublimated to the most perfect and supreme life through guò, and they will be connected with the final signal source, yes, the Divine Seal, and then condensed into one, they are one, just like the source of life, which is both one and ten thousand!"
