"I've never heard of such a ruin. After the enthusiasm and indulgence had left, Vivien stared at Pennis and asked, "There are almost no intact ruins of the First Age, and scholars can only guess the shadow of the First Age in various legends, and if you find the relics of the First Age, it should cause a sensation all over the world." ”
"There are always exceptions. Pannis pursed his lips and said reluctantly, "That time we found not only the remnants of the First Age, but also the dead of the First Age. ”
"God's people, this can't be. Vivien jumped straight from her chair, ignoring the chair she knocked over, rushed over and grabbed Pannis's collar and screamed, "Is this true? ”
"You'll never see that ruin. Pannis sighed deeply and patted Vivien's hand as she tugged at her clothes, "That ruin won't be seen in front of the world again, well, at least I hope so." ”
"Is there something wrong?" Catherine put her arms around Vivien, who was frantic with emotion, and pressed her back into her chair, "Why can't you see her?"
"The ruins have disappeared into the anomaly of space, never to come back. Pannis's voice was trembling, no, his whole body was trembling, his fists were clenched tightly, and the cyan veins on his skin burst out: "No one can find it, absolutely nothing, the secrets of space and time, even the gods can't snoop into them all, let alone mortals." ”
"Devoured by another dimension?" Vivien's eyes dimmed, and she collapsed in her chair weakly, "Why is this happening?"
"Yes, sleeping in another dimension. Pannis sighed again, poured himself a cup of cold black tea, and poured it down: "So, you don't have to get your hopes up anymore. ”
Vivien hung her head weakly, and when she raised her head again, her immature face was already full of tears and disappointment: "Money, time, life, everything, I'd rather use all the switches to get a chance to go there, even if it's only for a minute." ”
"Not a minute. Pannis shook his head and said, "No one knows where that ruin is now, and no one can send you there, even if you give everything, it's useless." ”
"It's cruel, Pannis. Catherine hugged Vivien and said, "I can't understand her excitement, but it's too much for you to give her a little hope and then destroy it." ”
"I can't help it, that's just the way it is. Pannis shrugged and said, "And you're underestimating the mental capacity of an avid researcher, look at her again." ”
Catherine looked down and found that Vivien had already taken out her notebook while wiping her tears, stared at Pannis viciously and said, "Tell me about the situation of the gods and the ruins." ”
"Hey, Vivien, how did you get so fast. Catherine asked with a smile, "I looked like I was about to collapse just now, why did I suddenly become like this?" ”
"In the face of new knowledge, how can there be time to regret and regret those irretrievable opportunities? Of course, we must first grasp the knowledge in front of us. Vivien replied confidently: "Hurry up, tell me about the appearance, characteristics, and structure of the gods, all the characteristics you have discovered." ”
"See, boring curiosity. Pannis made an innocent expression: "The people of God are actually very similar to the current human beings in terms of physiological structure, but because they are contaminated with divinity, they have a long life and great power. Although the strong people of the gods do not know what happened to them when they were alive, even after their deaths, their bones carry a coercion that can compete with the demigods. ”
"Ordinary gods are so powerful?" Catherine asked in surprise, "It's too exaggerated, isn't it?" ”
"Then I don't know, maybe the skeletons we saw happen to be the strongest among the gods. Pannis rolled his eyes and replied, "I don't live in the First Age, how can I give you an answer." But I think the gods should also be strong and weak, think of the song of Yara, the strongest of the gods is the existence that can kill the gods and seize the divine power. ”
"Do even corpses retain great power?" asked Vivien with a quick note and without raising her head, "What about the other characteristics? You say that they are more similar to humans, so there are still differences?"
"Because all I see is bones, I can't tell you what normal gods look like. "But there is one biggest difference between us and humans," said Pannis. ”
"Yes, I'm remembering. Vivien nodded, "What's the difference?"
"Here. Pannis pointed to his forehead and said, "On their skull, there is also an eye socket here." ”
"Smack. The pen in her hand fell to the ground, and Vivien's eyes widened and she sighed, "No wonder, so that's the case." ”
"What's the wonder?" Catherine picked up Vivien's pen and put it back in her hand, "What do you think of again?"
"In some ancient sculptures or cave paintings, many of the figures have a third eye. Scholars couldn't find the reason, and as a result, a group of uneducated guys jumped out and speculated wildly, some guessed that it was a sign of status, some guessed that it represented majesty, and some guessed that it was a symbol of power. Vivien smiled contentedly and said excitedly, "It turns out that the truth is actually so simple, just because they do have three eyes. Anything else? ”
"Time was so tight that we didn't have time to look much in the temple-like ruins. Pannis explained, "It's just that the strange writing and the bones of a few strong people have been found, and the rest have no time to find out and have to escape." ”
"Well, that's a shame. Vivien sighed regretfully, but quickly became happy: "But it's not bad to have these unexpected gains, thank you Pennis, you are really my lucky star." ”
"Actually, you know it doesn't mean much. "Without any evidence to support it, your theories are completely untenable and will not be accepted by other scholars," Pannis said. ”
"It doesn't matter, I don't need academic acceptance. Vivien said nonchalantly: "It's good to know this knowledge, as for whether others accept it or not, and can't change the essence of knowledge, who cares." Okay, I was so excited just now, and I suddenly feel so tired, I'd better go back and lie down for a while. ”
"You really want to. Pannis watched Vivien staggering open the side door and enter the mansion, muttering, "This guy is crazy." ”
"You're lying, aren't you. Catherine suddenly said, "Vivien was too excited to see it, but I can see that you lied in some places just now." It's not that you can't enter it at all, it's just that you don't want people to enter, or you can tell from your words that your team didn't want to let people in anymore, so you'd rather hide the secret, right?"
"You're smart, but that's the end of it. Pannis looked at Catherine deeply and said, "Forget this secret, and stop thinking about that ruin, it's not a bad thing for you, for me, or even for the whole world." Believe me, if you insist on digging this secret, it will only bring disaster, and disaster in every way. Many, many people have died because of it, and I don't want more names to be on the death list. ”
"Well, I understand, that's why I didn't say it when Vivien was there. Catherine smiled faintly: "Don't worry, she won't know about these exchanges between us, and I will keep it a secret." ”
"Thank you. Pannis breathed a sigh of relief and lay back in the recliner to cover his head: "It's almost time to have a task again, tsk, there's not much time to relax, hurry up and enjoy it." ”
"Hey, don't be lazy. Catherine kicked the stand of the recliner angrily, and pulled the blanket on Pannis's body hard: "It's time to get up, go grocery shopping with me, you told me yesterday, if you don't buy groceries at night, you will have no food at night, get up, get up." ”
"I don't want to. Pannis, clinging to the blanket, struggled to protest: "Why don't you have any mood at all, such a good weather, such a leisurely afternoon, it is a good time to sleep." At this time, you actually let me go grocery shopping, oh my God, you still have no humanity. ”
"There is such a thing as human nature, which only comes when there is food to eat. Catherine smiled and continued to pull the blanket: "Now we are all going to run out of food, so we can only regret to lose our humanity." Hahaha, get up, I'll splash water if I don't get up again. ”
"Resolutely not, anyway, the blanket is wet, and you wash it in the end. Holding the blanket, Pannis was dragged down from the chaise longue by Catherine, still lying down, and was dragged to the ground and glided: "Help, kidnapping, there's a knight kidnapping." ”
"You're having a great time. The two were having a good time, when Lina's helpless voice came from around the corner: "Did I miss something? Or is this a new way to play?"
"Ah, you're back. Catherine threw away the blanket, quickly tidied up her clothes, and resumed her usual serious expression: "I'm mobilizing him to accompany me to buy groceries." ”
"Don't pretend to be serious. Lina walked over and stabbed Catherine in the waist, causing Catherine to laugh and dodge: "I really wanted to see the indulgence of the Shadow Hand at the corner of the street just now, and there is, well, enthusiasm, why are they here?"
"They're here to do the commission. Catherine also ignored Pannis, who was rolling on the ground with a blanket: "After the New Year, I'm afraid we will have to go to the city of innocence." ”
Hearing this name, Lina sighed in disgust, but did not object: "It's good to delay it until after the New Year, otherwise I will run for nothing today." ”
"Yes, where have you been?" asked Catherine, puzzled, "I haven't seen anyone since morning." ”
"Look. Lina took out a few pieces of paper and shook them in front of Catherine: "Tickets for the New Year's celebration performance, and it's in the front row." They were meant to be given to representatives of various churches, but I snatched four of them from other churches. ”
"You guy. Catherine shook her head weakly: "But it's okay, everyone will go to the show together when the time comes." ”
