Chapter 40: Authority
In the evening, Harris and Ian returned to the inn with their purchases and had dinner with the two ladies who were traveling with them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 At the info table, he did his best to show his "generosity" and thoughtfulness like a true gentleman, and it was not until the night was falling that he vaguely proposed that the two men would "spend the night" elsewhere tonight.
As for the reason......
In order not to reveal his actual financial situation and their current "shady" deeds, the playboy used the excuse at the time: "I think it is necessary for Ian to be a real man here." ”
Of course, no one present, including himself, would believe what he said.
"Olivia, I really can't understand what he's doing. Seeing Harris dragging Ian away, Miss Knight couldn't help but feel the corners of her mouth twitch. To be honest, even if she didn't use the power of "sincerity", she could see that this middle-aged man was a lie at all. Because the town is so small, you can see it all at a glance, and there is no place like what he said.......
In a sense, this man blatantly lied in front of her knowing that lies could not deceive her.
It made her laugh and cry.
Compared to this unknown knight lady, the merchant lady has already seen through the dilemma of the two men at a glance. After recovering her crimson memories, Olivia's temperament is gradually becoming calm and calm. The childlike innocence and ignorance have receded little by little, although it still retains its exuberant curiosity and a little naughtiness, but it is also gradually regaining the unique style of belonging to the "Crimson Lord". (In short, Lori becomes a royal sister)
Ian and the others had worried about his state of mind, after all, the horror of being consumed by divinity was almost imminent to her. To their surprise, however, the lady, who had lost all her powers, was far more calm and indifferent than the onlookers, as if she had completely forgotten the divine threat and threw it out of her mind.
"Nothing. At this moment, she gracefully crossed her legs, and a smile flashed in her eyes: "He just wants to save face." ”
"Death to save face?" Martina was slightly stunned, and then understood something. She was not stupid after all, and with a slight touch from Olivivi, she immediately understood the reason for Harris's strange behavior in the past two days, and immediately felt a bitter smile again.
"Lord Ian seems to be a little pitiful. ”
Over the past few days, she had learned a rough picture of the relationship between Ian and Harris, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for him......
"Martina, don't bother with them. Olivia blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "Also, don't you think that men who want to die to save face are actually cute?"
......
Walking on the road to the farm, Ian was suddenly stunned, and then couldn't help but glance at Harris, who was in high spirits on the side, revealing an extremely strange look. Ever since he ascended to the clouds, all the creatures of the world have ever pronounced his name, and their appearance, their location, and everything they said at that time will be imprinted in his mind in every detail.
In ancient times, the gods claimed to be omniscient, not because they really knew everything, but because when their names were known to the world, and their followers chanted their names at all times, they were able to discern the desires of the hearts of the people, to know the many secrets of the world, and to discern the conspiracies against themselves by saying their names.
It wasn't until the heart cup was shattered and the gods walked down the clouds that no one inadvertently learned this secret, so that no one in the world dared to say the true name of the strongest at will, and most of them only used titles such as "crimson", "firmament", and "prophet" to refer to them, so that over time, some people only knew their titles, but did not know what the names of the strongest people were.
For Ian, this ability did not bring him the so-called "omniscience", because there were too few people who knew his existence, and even fewer knew his real name, and in normal times, at most, he only heard a few complaints from Yelena, Alvin and others, but he didn't expect to hear the words of sympathy from Miss Knight to him just now.
This made him sigh in his heart, thinking that the two wise ladies had indeed understood what Harris was trying to hide.
He hesitated slightly, but finally decided not to tell Harris the truth.
It may be a bit harder, but maybe it's more fun......
A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at a farm outside the town. After talking to the stumbling farmer, Harris beckoned to the "little wildcat" hiding behind the crack in the door, and was able to get the "night right to use" the farm.
The setting sun completely sank to the ground at this moment, the day passed, and night fell. Ian's perspective suddenly rose, as if he had been thrown into the air, and the field of vision that could only cover the town spread out at an almost incredible speed. First the entire town was in full view, then the pine forests, mountains, and cities were gradually taken into view, and then the entire Eastern Regions, the peninsula where the empire was located, the entire continent and even the almost endless ocean beyond the continent were tiled in front of his eyes. Except for the chaotic borders, he could turn his gaze to any corner of the map as if he were standing on a high vantage point overlooking a map laid out on the ground.
This is the kind of authority he can have after nightfall. Only after the sun has set can he hold the whole world in the palm of his hand and observe it carefully, and when the first rays of the day fall, he will be knocked down from the clouds and return to the narrow "wellhead" again.
The power of eternal night cannot be used in the daytime, and if he wants to maintain this perspective all the time, then he must reveal the posture of God, cover the normal rules of the world with great divine power, turn day into night, and pull the whole world into eternal night. But even though he knew it would allow him to find his purpose more efficiently, Ian couldn't have actually done so.
It is impossible for the strongest of the world to tolerate him turning the whole world into eternal night. Such an approach would undoubtedly cause great harm to the world, as a year ago, when a few hours of day turned into night, and then the cycle of day and night in the following month was completely thrown into chaos.
No one would want to destroy this world.
Above the clouds, Ian slowly lowered his gaze to get a clearer view of the area in front of him, and just as his gaze swept across the woodland as he descended, he suddenly noticed a somewhat familiar red-haired boy running through the forest like a headless fly.
Well?
He raised his eyebrows slightly, and after remembering the identity of this young man, a smile suddenly crossed the corner of his mouth.
"Looks like the wolf is coming. (To be continued.) )
