Chapter 351: Eyeless Mama
The builder of this survivor camp also thought about the defense when he was renovating the surrounding bone houses, and he deliberately connected all the attics in a spiral shape, and placed a large number of fortifications and traps around them that could be opened at any time.
Enemies who attack this fortress from the main gate can only actually enter the gate of the tower by going around the tower more than three times according to the builder's intention, and the distance of these three circles is enough to deal with the vast majority of enemies, and these can be judged from the various traces of battle left around it, and these fortifications are indeed effective.
When the three of them walked through this spiral passage where residence and defense were integrated, the nun asked seemingly casually, "How are we doing here?"
"Not bad. Leo knew that the nun was asking about the fortifications, but he replied as if he didn't understand.
Although she didn't get the answer she wanted, the nun didn't care, smiled slightly, and led Leo into the tower.
Entering the tower, Leo immediately felt something abnormal, he found that this tower was obviously different from the tower library he had entered in the White City before, but it was somewhat similar to the tower wizard ruins that the Raven took him to at the headquarters of the Venaya Holy Blood Society, the space here was much larger than the fortress outside, and it was obviously a special space that was integrated into the subspace debris.
The area inside the tower is more than ten times larger than the fortress outside, and it is also much higher, compared to the outside buildings deliberately built in order to keep out the invaders, the buildings inside the tower are extremely neat, and each building has a fixed role.
For example, just now, the three of them passed through a lot of indoor plantations, and this attic has no exterior walls, windows, and doors, except for a few columns and floors, there is no other shelter, and people outside can clearly see the situation inside.
I saw that this indoor plantation was all grown with mushroom-like mushrooms, all of which were placed in boxes containing some liquid that looked like blood. I don't know if it's because of the fungus itself, or the liquid in the box, the fungus in the box grows at an unusually fast rate, and grows quickly almost as soon as it is harvested, and the harvested fungus is neatly placed in a food bag with various names written on it, and it seems that this fungus is not their food.
In addition to the plantation, there is also a forge in the forge that appears to be the head of a monster, and from time to time flames erupt from the eyes and mouth of the skull, and the raw materials for forging are bones.
The blacksmith puts the raw bone in the fire and tempers it, and then throws it into a transparent viscous liquid, and then the bone becomes like soft clay that can be shaped at will, and after the shape is completed, the bone is put back into the fire again, and then polished, and a bone weapon is made.
Although the forging process of this bone weapon is simple, and as long as the heat is mastered, the average child can do it, but the strength of this weapon will not be weakened by this simple forging process.
Leo stopped as he passed a forge workshop, picked up a weapon that had been placed on the ground, and looked at it carefully.
The nun who was leading the way in front also stopped, turned around and watched Leo's movements, and Leo's action of holding the weapon at this moment naturally caused the female leader who followed behind him to be nervous, and the tip of the spear that was originally hanging to the ground was also slightly raised, aiming at Leo.
The female leader's movements naturally could not escape Leo's perception, he didn't care about it, but carefully checked the strength of the weapon, and felt that this cold weapon was not as simple as its simple appearance.
In addition to the extreme sharpness of these weapons, there are also some psionic powers contained in the weapons, which can provide additional damage to the weapon itself, and these weapons can be regarded as psionic wonders.
After putting down the bone weapon in his hand, Leo turned to the female leader and asked, "Are these bones from those monsters outside?"
The female leader didn't expect Leo to suddenly ask a question to herself, so she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then replied coldly: "Of course it's those guys, otherwise what do you think it is?"
"Won't their corpses disappear after you kill them?" asked Leo in a deep voice.
"Of course not. The female leader looked at Leo with a look that looked like she was looking at an idiot, and replied casually.
After hearing the answer, Leo showed a thoughtful look, turned his head again, and prepared to continue with the nun, but when he turned his head, he saw the nun smile at him with a deep meaning, and from this smile, Leo could feel that the nun was very clear about the reason why he asked this question.
In this way, the nun led Leo around the tower, and then went up the stairs to the top of the tower.
On another tower, it was on this level that Leo encountered an unknown existence, and the top floor of this tower was an ordinary room, the same area as the real area of the tower, and it was completely different from the more than ten times the magnified space of the tower below.
The room was a lounge, an office, and a prayer hall, except that the most striking thing in the room was not the statue of the Sufferer, but a psionic suppressor in the corner.
Unlike the new psionic suppressor I'd seen on the tower before, this one was rusted like a pile of broken metal.
The psionic suppressor is made of a special alloy material, which is used to build space warships that can sail in subspace, not only incomparably strong, but also able to resist all kinds of corrosive substances and energies in the universe, and it is absolutely impossible for such a natural corrosion to happen. Judging by the corrosion, this psionic suppressor has been stored here for at least millions of years, until the internal structure of the metal and the coating on the exterior have completely disappeared, and it is no longer the original superalloy.
"Your Excellency has seen this artifact?" the nun asked as she paid special attention to Leo, and immediately noticed it when Leo's face showed a little surprise.
"Seen, in another tower. Leo said half-truthfully.
"Another tower?" the nun nodded slightly, then turned to the female leader and said, "Joan, please go down to Aunt Minna and ask her to help make two cups of bitter silk tea." ”
"Mama, you ...... alone" Although Leo has not shown any hostility all along, the female leader still does not believe Leo, and naturally does not want to see Mama of the church alone with him.
"It's okay, I'm sure this gentleman isn't a bad guy. The nun made a reassuring gesture, and then motioned for the chief to leave.
Seeing that the nun had already made a decision, the female leader could not object any longer, so she could only look at Leo in a warning manner, and then turned and left the tower.
"You may be seated. The nun motioned for Leo to find a place to sit down, and she sat down on the soft chair by the fire, and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself before, I am the confessed grandmother of the Church of the Afflicted, and my past name is no longer needed, you can call me Eyeless." ”
Hearing the nun's self-introduction, Leo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and looked up and down the nun in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze.
Although the nun's self-introduction is simple, it is not at all easy to hear from Leo's ears, because according to his knowledge of the Church of the Afflicted, Eyeless Mama should be one of the three saints of the Church of the Afflicted.
Unlike other churches, which only elect a pope and a pope as the head of this religion, and the spokesmen of the gods in the world, the Church of the Afflicted has three spokesmen of the gods, without eyes, without eyes, and without tongues, representing the invisible, unheard, and unspeakable sufferings of all things in the world.
The three divine spokesmen of the Church of the Afflicted are different from the popes and popes of most other churches, and the religious leaders elected by most of the churches are actually mostly church administrators who are used to deal with church affairs, and the people who really communicate with the gods are ascetic priests, while the three divine spokesmen of the Church of the Afflictions are the real spokesmen, and it is rumored that they can not only use the divine magic given to them by the suffering, but can even give divine magic to others on behalf of the gods, which can be said to be the incarnation of the real gods in the world.
However, what puzzled Leo was that there was now a Blindless Lady in the Church of the Afflicted, and that Eyeless Grandmother was still preaching in the refugee city of Miria.
The three saints of the Church of the Afflicted are not inherited casually, all saints are for life, and only when they die, a successor will be selected from among the candidates, and if the previous saints do not die, even if they do it for hundreds of years, there will be no new saints.
This rule was not made by the Church itself, but by the god of the suffering, because the martyr would only accept three saints as his divine dependents, and the others, even the saints who were elected by the Church, would not be recognized by the victims as long as the previous saints were still alive.
Therefore, the only criterion for becoming a martyr saint is to see if the saint can endow the priest of the church with the divine magic of the martyr.
Judging from the situation just now, it is clear that this Eyeless Grandma is still capable of performing magical arts, and the Eyeless Grandma of Miria City also has frequent news of her miraculous healing skills, which is obviously different from the rules of the Church of the Afflicted.
"My name is Leo Dodd, you can call me Leo. Although there were doubts in his heart, Leo did not show the look on his face, and introduced himself truthfully.
"Dodd's surname is very special, are you from Inge?" asked Eyeless Mama tentatively after hearing Leo's words.
"Yes. Leo replied simply.
Eyeless Mama could see that Leo didn't seem to be interested in his identity and surname, so she smiled and didn't continue, but went straight to the point, saying, "Mr. Leo, are you very confused, where is this place?"
"Yes. Leo nodded and said, "I was supposed to be in White City, but now I ......"
"This is the White City. Eyeless Mama replied without waiting for Leo to finish.
Leo frowned and said, "I also think this is the White City, but the architecture and environment here are completely different from the White City. ”
Eyeless Mama replied, "Because this is not the White City either." ”
"What do you mean?" Leo wondered.
Eyeless Mama explained: "This is the White City, but this is the inner world of the White City, the real face of the White City, and the White City you see is just the outer world of the White City, the vanity surface of the White City. ”
It's just that Eyeless Mama's explanation still makes Leo a little confused.
Eyeless Mama also seemed to know that her explanation was too simple, so she thought about it for a while and sorted out the rhetoric, and then slowly explained: "If the entire White City is put on a mirror, then our current White City is the reflection of the White City, but this does not mean that this White City is fake and illusory, in fact, this White City is as real as that White City, but the time and space in which it is located are different, the meaning of time you should know, the concept of space, you may ......"
"I know what space is. Seeing that Eyeless Mama was about to explain what space was, Leo immediately interrupted her.
"Do you know what space is?" Eyeless Mama was stunned for a moment, looked at Leo, and said, "It seems that Mr. Leo, your identity is not simple!"
Leo didn't explain why he knew about the concept of space, which was beyond the perception of time and the world, he was only concerned about the current situation, and continued to ask, "Did you discover this inner world in the White City?"
"It's not. Eyeless Mama shook her head and said, "It was discovered by a person from the future." As she spoke, she paused and said, "But about the future people, I think you should already know about it, Alice told you, right?"
"Do you know Alice too?" asked Leo, who had already guessed in his heart, still deliberately showed a look of surprise.
"Of course, she and I built this shelter, and most of the people who came here for refuge were sent by her. Eyeless Mama nodded, and then asked, "You should have sent it from her, right?"
Leo was silent for a moment, then took out the obsidian and looked at it, wondering if he was here because of this thing.
"This is ......" Eyeless Mama saw this obsidian, her face showed a look of surprise, and even sat up from the chair a little abnormally, reaching out to take the obsidian, but she realized that her behavior was a bit rude, so she stabilized her emotions and asked Leo, "Excuse me, can you let me see this obsidian?"
Mama Eyeless's reaction made Leo realize that this obsidian was not the reason he had entered this world, but it was indeed not as simple as he thought.
"Alice made it for me, to help me disguise myself as a parasite. Leo graciously handed the obsidian to Eyeless Mama, and then asked in a deep voice, "Is there anything special about this thing?"
