Chapter 45: Morning Star's Words
"I am an apostle of God......
After responding with a smile, Abner also carefully looked at the three high-level executives of "Morning Star City" in front of him, who surrounded themselves in the shape of "Pin".
Well, this sci-fi black mecha man should be the strongest of the three, which can be seen from the attitude of the other two faintly taking him as the leader.
In addition, the jewelry necklace around his neck, which did not match the mecha at all, should be a powerful seal, but the level cannot be judged.
The man on the left side of the black mecha man looks familiar...... The classic "Robocop" Murphy image...... Was his renovation plan designed by "me"?
In addition, the man's nose and mouth still have their original appearance and have not been transformed...... Are they needed for any particular work?
Finally, the little girl on the right with bee wings appears to have been biomodified at first glance, and is the weakest of the three...... But there was something wrong with her breath, and it felt a little similar to the "blood goblin" that Lilith had casually concocted for Thales......
In short, it's all weird...... But they don't know how long they've been in this nightmare of scarcity, and it's nice to be able to keep their sanity like they are now!
As his thoughts turned, Abner noticed that the three demigods were subtly communicating with encrypted shortwaves—also within the scope of his "information extraction."
However, although he obtained these signals, he did not try to decipher them, even though it was not difficult for him to have a "pure white eye" and can multi-thread calculations, but that was still too troublesome, and with this effort, it was better to simulate the ability of "manipulator" and "virtual personality" to directly invade their minds.
Back to the point, after a brief exchange of opinions between the three demigods, the black mecha man asked again in an electronic voice, "I wonder which god's apostle you are?" Where did it come from? ”
Even though the pitch of the electronic voice barely fluctuated, Abner still heard a hint of wariness in his words.
That's right, this city is not like Silver City or the Moon City in the original book, where almost no outsiders have ever been seen...... They had spent two hundred years migrating from the other side of the "Godforsaken Lands", and they must have seen many remnants of the city-states and towns destroyed by the evil gods during their journey, so they were naturally wary of outsiders like me, who seemed to be about to preach.
Second, the fall of "Morning Star City" is inseparable from the believers of the "True Creator", who must not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, even if they are trapped here without hope, it is better than complete destruction.
Turning around these thoughts, Abner did not say the names of his current backstage, he groaned slightly, and a flash of inspiration seemed to flash in his mind, and then he replied in a natural tone:
"My Lord is the great 'White Eye, Lord of Fate, Emperor of Knowledge and Machines', and his doppelganger descended on the 'Cursed Lands', your 'Emperor of Machines' Lucien Evans."
The first two sentences of the three descriptions point to the illusory "Omniscient Eye" and "Pure White Angel" in the "Unknown Land", as well as the uniqueness of the "Wheel of Fortune" that he has invested in, and the last sentence is a synthesis of his Abner and Evans, but it points to the least clear.
But considering that Abner and Evans are the same person, he will be able to get back his own memories of Evans sooner or later, so it still points to him in the final analysis.
Although he is only Sequence 4, and the person is not enough to support the "honorable name", but with the "pure white eyes", it is not a big problem.
And the reason why Abner is so foolish is also because the three demigods present are not uninformed "native" demigods, they must know very well that the "Emperor of Machines" has long fallen...... After all, the explosion of the energy core was probably very violent, and poor Mr. Evans did not die peacefully like the other identities of "me", and did not leave an intact body that seemed to be suspended as if he was in suspended animation.
If I only say "Emperor Mechanic", they designate me as a liar...... But now the "Emperor of the Machines" is said to be "me...... No, they are the doppelgangers of the great "Pure White Eye, Lord of Fate, Emperor of Knowledge and Machines", and they will not be completely denied at worst.
Seeing that the three people in front of him did not respond, Abner seemed to be calmed by his words, so he added: "As for me, I naturally come from the 'bright world' that the gods have promised you. ”
On the other side, hearing Abner's words, the black mecha man didn't believe it, but suddenly remembered something, suddenly looked up at the yellow gem with extraordinary properties attached to the statue of the "Machine Emperor", and swallowed back the words that were about to be spoken.
And Eleanor's little girl clone was already whispering to herself at this moment: "The bright world promised by the gods?
"When He returns, He will surely lead the Morning Star out of the realm of darkness and into the world of light......
This was not a prophecy...... Is it a promise from the gods? ”
Only Annick Splinter, who resembled Murphy the Robocop, asked with a red glint in his thin striped eyes, "Your Excellency, how do you prove this?" ”
At this point, he paused for a moment, then continued, "It's rude, I almost forgot to introduce myself, my name is Annick Splinter, and I'm one of the official members of the current Supreme Council of 'Morningstar City'. ”
Then, he pointed to the black mecha man and the little girl with bee wings, and said, "They are Olmos and Eleanor, and they are also full members of the Supreme Council...... I don't know what you call it? ”
Annick Sprint? The name was given by Evans! Is it okay to splice it like this?
In addition to complaining secretly, because he was using his true appearance at the moment, Abner did not hide it, and responded with a smile: "My name is Abner." ”
At the same time, he was actually a little surprised in his heart, because looking at the attitudes of these three people, it seemed that he easily accepted his words...... It's too easy to believe, isn't it? I think they're cautious.
For some reason, Abner actually had a feeling in his heart that the teacher hated the unsuccessful students......
This is a delusion...... Abner laughed to himself, then threw away these miscellaneous thoughts, and manipulated the statue of the "Machine Emperor" to stretch out his other arm and bend it towards its head......
Originally, he wanted the "Machine Emperor" to make some simple actions as "evidence" to win the other party's trust...... But I didn't think of what kind of pose he should pose for a while, so in his eagerness, he could only let him salute the military salute of his previous life.
Who would have thought that as soon as the "ceremony" of the "Machine Emperor" was in place, all the residents of the surrounding "Morning Star City", including the three committee members, all stood up solemnly, raised their arms at the same time, and returned the same "military salute".
- Even if the listening and voice systems of the residents are still paralyzed, they have no idea what the four are talking about.
What's going on? Seeing this completely unexpected scene, Abner couldn't help but feel a little sluggish.
Abner...... No, Your Excellency! I believe what you say, that you are indeed the emissary of the 'Emperor of the Machines'. Olmoston, the black mecha man who was still a little skeptical, became excited, and even his electronic voice trembled a little, "Actually, since you've been using 'Morning Star Yayan', we don't have much doubt about you.
"After all, we've met quite a few city-states along the way...... But none of them used the 'Morning Star'...... It was the language created by the Emperor to shield power.
"It's not giants, it's not elves, it's not dragons...... It is the normal language that truly belongs to us human beings.
"Your accent is so standard, even most of the residents in the city can't reach such a level, obviously you can't learn it now."
Morning Star Yayan? What's that? I'm speaking Rune......
Oh, they speak Rune!
