Chapter 276, Family Affection (Fifth Update)
Looking at the huge creature in front of him, if Xiao Yan may have only heard its voice and not seen it before becoming a trialist, so he didn't know what the other party was, then after becoming a trialist, he had seen too much information in the library, and he had already guessed what the other party was at the first time.
The Three-Headed Hound, the most famous hell watchdog in human mythology, Cerberus, can be seen in numerous games and novels. Its name is so outstanding that Xiao Yan's head almost immediately crashed when he first met Garm and heard that the other party was a regional guard dog.
In Greek mythology, this three-headed dog of hell was covered in flames, had a terrifying dragon tail, and was crawling with poisonous snakes, although Xiao Yan could not imagine how those poisonous snakes could survive in such a huge group of flames. However, this time the behemoth that appeared in front of Xiao Yan's eyes was not so hideous, on the contrary, the three-headed dog instead presented a thrilling beauty.
The three-headed dog's body was covered with white satin-smooth hair, which was completely different from the dry white flagella that exuded the smell of death, it was a color full of life, and even a sense of holiness.
The smooth curve like flowing water stretched from the head to the tail of the three-headed dog, and the long tail gently slapped the ground, where Xiao Yan vaguely saw several small three-headed dogs playing with each other. It's said that it's not big, but it's basically the same as the big dogs in the real Shijie, but these little three-headed dogs don't seem to be too old, so they don't even notice that their father or mother is dying. Of course, expecting these little three-headed dogs to find out where they are in Shijie has actually become precarious. The next second it could turn into hell, and it's even more unlikely.
Even so. The huge three-headed dog was still flapping its tail gently. It seems to be playing with his own children, and it seems to be just proving that he is still alive, so that the children should not worry.
Looking at this, Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly became a little sour, no matter what time it was, the kind of uncut family affection in intelligent creatures seemed to override everything. The same is true of the giant three-headed dog.
"You're watching my child?"
A strange voice exploded in Xiao Yan's head, and this couldn't be considered a sound at all. It doesn't spread in the air, and it can't be sensed by Xiao Yan's eardrums. Just like the powerful legendary awakened person in the original Flame Hell Shijie, this voice appeared directly in Xiao Yan's mind, allowing his mind to "recognize" the tone and meaning of the voice.
Although lying on the ground, the other two heads seemed to be lifeless, but the horizontal height of the white three-headed dog was still equal to Xiao Yan's height, in other words, this was a behemoth whose shoulder width was equivalent to Xiao Yan's height.
This huge body, if on earth, or in reality shijie. Will crush yourself directly because of your own weight, but luckily. This is the language of the sky, and you don't have to be bound by too many realistic shijie physical theories.
The head facing Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Yan, and without waiting for Xiao Yan to answer, a new voice was transmitted in Xiao Yan's mind.
"I am pleasantly surprised by your arrival, and at the same time, I am desperate."
"The so-called surprise is because after such a long time, I finally saw the awakened person of Yggdrasil come to this shijie again, which shows that Yggdrasil still remembers this shijie."
"The so-called despair is because your level is so low, seeing you, I also understand that Yggdrasil's abandonment of this shijie, yes, give up, Yggdrasil must be haunted by the original incident."
Obviously, Xiao Yan didn't know what the three-headed dog was talking about, but he vaguely had an association in his heart, and soon, this association was recognized by the behemoth in front of him.
"Yes, I know what you're thinking, that's right, that's right, I used to be the guardian of this shijie, the king of the biggest zuihou, and now, I'm still trying to protect this shijie that may be destroyed at any time."
"Yggtra Hil once advised me to leave the Sky Language, if I leave this shijie, even if there is still life, the demon will lose interest. Like most ruined shijies, the ultimate goal of the demons is us guardians. ”
"I hesitated to leave my shijie and became suspicious of Yugtrasil's suggestion, mistakenly believing that it wanted to deprive me of my living environment. In response, I fought back hard against Yggtrasil, eventually allowing it to lead the Awoken away. ”
"After that, the Awoken never came to this shijie again, it was an incomparably long process, until I see your arrival now, tell me, Awoken, where did you come from?"
Xiao Yan rubbed his eyebrows and replied before the three-headed dog found out what he was thinking: "I don't know about the conflict between you and the Shijie Tree, and I don't want to get involved in it, in fact, the reason I'm here is just a choice. I had to find out where a demon called Ruston came from, and the Shijie Tree opened the way for me to this Shijie. Before that, I vaguely knew that there was a passage between this shijie and the shijie I was in, which seemed to be blocked before that. I think the ultimate goal of the Shijie Tree is to completely destroy this passage without alerting the demons, so that the demons can't use it to enter the Shijie where I am. ”
"I must explain, though, that I'm not sure that I have to do such a thing, or that the Shijie Tree's mission may not be for me to destroy this passage, it's all just a coincidence and inference, not certain.
The giant dog head made a smile, though it looked more like a grin. It paused and asked, "So, how did you get here?" This is the most secluded and lush place in the entire jungle, and it is very difficult for this Shijie native to find my existence. ”
Xiao Yan wanted to say that he was able to find his way into this jungle through the combination of his high-level sharp gaze and Moval's treasures, but he soon realized that this was not a coincidence at all, but an inevitable encounter.
The sharp gaze comes from the Shijie Tree, and Moval's treasures also come from the Shijie Tree, Xiao Yan has every reason to believe that everything he sees in his eyes is actually the analysis and projection of the Shijie Tree.
In other words, when Xiao Yan chose a high-level sharp gaze because of Moval's treasure, Shijie Tree had already made a series of arrangements for the future, no matter what, it was necessary to let Xiao Yan come here. Now that such a decision has been made, then there is no need to think about it, the real task must be, to close the channel.
Seeing Xiao Yan's sudden realization, the three-headed dog's smile was even worse, and it turned its head to look at its child, and said, "Before closing the passage, the passage must first be opened, which is used to determine what exactly this passage needs to be destroyed." Ugtra Sil has asked you to come here, in fact, it has already stated that it hopes to use this passage to allow more life of the Sky Whisper to escape from this shijie and enter your shijie. For that, I am very grateful. ”
Then, the final master of this Sky Whisper lifted all three heads up, looking at Xiao Yan in a fan shape, and a dull compound sound rumbled in Xiao Yan's head, this time it was not the sound of one head, but the common voice of three heads.
"It's very dangerous to unblock a passage because no one knows exactly where it will go. On the other hand, I have to make sure that this passage is safe and at the same time ultimately responsible for destroying it. Don't be so surprised, I have to stay in this shijie, destroy this passage, and then destroy with this shijie. Otherwise, with your level, how could you ruin this passage? ”
Xiao Yan also turned his head to look at the little three-headed dogs and asked, "Are you worried about them?" ”
"Young children have to grow up, and I don't worry about them, I just, I love them. I just wanted to look at them one more time, even if it was one more time, one more second. ”
The three-headed dog closed all its eyes and fell silent, Xiao Yan could clearly see the tears overflowing from the corners of the eyes of this person who didn't know if it was his mother or his father. The tears rolled down its smooth and clean fur to the ground, and a little three-headed dog noticed them, and he looked up at his relatives, as if he did not understand the meaning of the tears.
Eventually, curiosity led him to climb along the body of his loved one, and after spending a painful time for Xiao Yan, the hairy little three-headed dog finally climbed in front of his loved one's skull, and affectionately licked the tears left by his relatives with his tongue. It's just that the Sky Whisper controller has a total of 3 heads, and the eyes of each head are full of tears, which makes the little three-headed dog lick it too much, and finally can only make a whimper-like cry at his relatives.
It was only then that the huge three-headed dog opened its eyes, looked at the left head, gently picked up the back of his child's neck, and pulled it up and placed it on the ground. Afterwards, the heads looked at Xiao Yan together and said, "Thank you for coming, Awakened, I am not afraid of my own death, every shijie is going through this process. What I fear is that they will die with me, and your arrival brings me hope for Zuihou. ”
"Is there a glimmer of hope for Zuihou in the midst of countless despairs?"
Xiao Yan couldn't help but whisper to himself.
"Follow me, human, I'll take you to the closed passage, where you'll return to your own shijie, yes, to you, your reality shijie." (To be continued......)
