"Because I didn't expect anyone to come as a guest, I haven't cleaned it up much, so let's make do with it." , The middle-aged man sat down against the wall, surrounded by stone walls, the only exit was the vent on the top, a tattered wooden ladder was placed on the wall, this is the underground of the desert, the boy followed the local traveler for a long time and saw him stepping back and forth on the sand, and soon he lay down and lifted a wooden plank from under the sand, revealing a black cave, which was actually a stone ladder built inside, winding towards the deep underground, the young man roughly estimated, there were about a hundred steps, and then there was the vent of the house, jumping in was the stone house where the two were located。

The so-called four walls of the family are probably like this. The room was surrounded by stone walls, and on the inner wall was an old chandelier, and tongues of fire danced, shining on the stone house underground, and what Ilda said about sitting was really improvised, because it was full of dust and gravel, and many small stones piled up on top of each other. Anyway, he had experienced a day trip to the desert, and the boy didn't care about this, so he sat down on the spot, picked up a small pebble and looked at it, the surface of the stone was covered with dark red cracks, as if it had been roasted by fire.

"Now can you tell me where this is?" the boy looked at the middle-aged man sitting by the wall, the chandelier above his head, his face hidden in the shadows of the wall. When there was no dialogue, only the thin exhalation of the boy remained in the stone house, but the silence did not last long, and the traveler who called himself Ilda began to speak.

"This is the rune stone civilization that was once used as a traveler training camp, and in the short years after the human race opened its spiritual intelligence, it also had its glorious highlight moments, and at its peak, there were multiple legendary travelers stationed in this world, and it had reached the brilliant civilization of the seventh ether strength. ”

"Wait a minute, what exactly does the traveler mean, and what does the seventh aether mean?" Every lover of mysticism is more or less a curious baby.

"......" The middle-aged man scratched his head, and his voice was more bitter, "Because you don't even know the most basic things, there are too many things you need to know, but I don't know where to start, you can listen to me first." ”

"......, please speak, please speak."

"The material plane is the foundation of all civilized worlds, the starlight plain is higher than the material plane, it is the upper space of spiritual convergence and spiritual sublimation, and the material plane reaches between the starlight plain, spanning a distance farther than endless light years, which is filled with formless and thoughtless matter, which is the bridge separating spiritual matter, which is divided into nine layers, and is called the ninefold etheric sea. The higher the level of the world, the higher the level it is located in, and the closer it is to the Starlight Plain, and the so-called traveler is the traveler who travels through the ninefold etheric sea, using the countless floating material worlds in this vast ocean as a springboard, seeking a path to the upper space, this journey is vast and indescribable, and cannot be measured by time, in the long historical records, only a few people can reach the top of the upper space, and most of the travelers have died in the endless journey.

Obviously, not every traveler has the ability to travel through the world without being immortal, crossing the void without falling, so between the ninefold etheric seas, some worlds have been selected to become camps for travelers to rest and rest, and the world of runes was once such a chosen world, where there were once glorious traveler camps, and it is also for this reason that even if it has fallen, some of the laws of the past can still operate on the ground, for example, our words are circulating, even if they come from different languages, but the laws that act on the spirit coordinate all this。 ”

Ilda's voice was even deeper in the echo of the stone wall, but the boy was completely fascinated by it, an introduction to the truth of the world, a narrative that would drive any scholar crazy!

Infinite journey, countless worlds, such a life should be so wonderful, beyond the ordinary, but in the mundane, who can really be extraordinary, only in such an endless world, people can find the opportunity for promotion. Traveler, I want to be such an otherworldly being.

"A traveler is a transcendent traveler, so naturally, not everyone can become a traveler," Ilda sneered, as if sensing what the young man was thinking, "Although I don't know what your ritual is all about, and what is the situation of the gods in the ritual in your world, but one thing I am sure of is that you have not undergone any training related to travelers, let alone accumulated and improved your spirituality, because you started your journey by coincidence, which is not a good thing in all the records that can be consulted." ”

The boy touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment, his messy ritual was really indescribably wonderful.

"You don't have any preparation for the journey, including supplies, tools, methods and means to combat danger, and worst of all, you lack the knowledge of the necessary mysteries," Ilda seemed to think of something, "If I had been a little late last night, you probably wouldn't have the basic ability to think now." ”

And wasted my last flint and steel. Ilda muttered, but unfortunately the boy didn't hear him.

"Last night...... What the hell is that? I can't seem to remember. "The Juvenile Committee really can't remember what happened last night, it should be something very scary, but I really can't remember it.

"Because I burned your memories with flint," Ilda didn't seem to want to say more, "it's not something that people can face, and it's ......" He didn't tell the boy that looking directly at the problems left by God would not disappear because of the loss of memory, it was a permanent mark in the depths of his soul, and even if the boy didn't realize it at this time, but his mind or spirit would be more or less affected, which was almost unavoidable. And the deeper problem is that looking directly at God is equivalent to establishing a connection with God, and this connection will make people more exposed to God's vision, and the subsequent series of effects are nerve-wracking.

The young man digested what the middle-aged uncle said, although it was unbelievable, but there was nothing unacceptable about his own personal experience here, and the remaining question was, "Then how do I go back?" the young man hesitated, "I...... Can you go back?"

Ilda didn't respond, for a long, long time, so long that despair drowned all the boy's thoughts like a tide,

Can't go back...... The boy buried his head bitterly, is he going to die in this world?

"It's not that there is no way to return to the world you belonged to", the young man looked up in surprise, and the middle-aged uncle's gloomy voice seemed pleasant at this moment,

"Really, is there really a way?" the boy asked in a tremolo.

"I can't, but this world can," Ilda took a deep breath, "I told you, young man, this is a world that is going to die, if it was once a traveler's camp, then coming and going from different worlds is just a trivial matter, even if it is dying now, but this world still has the ability to send you back." ”

"But what are you going to pay, what are you going to do to make this dying world do it for you, to spend another useless expense of its little energy?"
