Chapter 138: Preparation of the Parties
Silver City, at the top of the Round Tower, inside the Chief Chamber.
Colin Iliad looked at Derick Berg, who was stunted compared to his surroundings, "Are you ready?"
Dressed in full-body armor and carrying a "door panel" sword in his hand, which was slightly taller than his height, Derrick nodded heavily, "Ready."
- This is the equipment that Mr. "Tower" handed over to him through the giant Grossell, and it is said that there is also a second form, but it can only be used once.
In short, he doesn't act like an extraordinary in the "Sun" realm at all, closer to a berserker.
The gray-haired Colin Iliad with an old scar on his face immediately shifted his gaze to look at Lovia, "Are you ready?"
With silver-gray curls and pale gray eyes, Lovia also wears a dark armor, but the style is strange, very different from the simple style that Silver City is used to.
She moved her head imperceptibly and said, "No problem."
Colin, the "Demon Hunter" who has become a "Silver Knight", turns his gaze to the former chief Chaplin and the giant Grossell, and asks if they are ready in turn.
After receiving all the positive answers, Colin Iliad walked slowly to a wall, removed the two straight swords hanging from them, and carried them behind him.
"Let's go." The Silver City Chief immediately gave the order succinctly.
The exploration team led by him will once again go to the afternoon town camp to further explore the "Giant King's Court" and find the way to the real sea.
However, due to some hints given by Mr. "Tower" in advance, Colin did not let the members of the middle sequence join again, and this time the exploration team was a pure demigod team.
At the sound of metal armor leaves colliding, Lovia, Deric, and the others silently followed behind the chief, and Yuguan walked out of the room and down the stairs.
On the way, they saw the elders of the Council of Six such as Wetter Hilmon, and the residents of Silver City who maintained order in the Round Tower.
These people were lying on the railings or waiting at the top of the stairs, their expressions unusually solemn, as if they were seeing off the hopeful exploration team.
No one spoke, and there was silence, but in Colin. As the Iliad, Derick Berg, and the others passed, the Silver City residents raised their right arms and clubbed their fists in front of their foreheads.
With the sound of this action, Colin and the other members of the exploration team left the Round Tower and came to the road. They then lit a lantern made of animal skin.
In the dim light, one by one the residents of Silver City walked out of their houses and stopped on the side of the road.
They looked at Derrick and the others with admiration and expectation, and raised their right arms one after another, clubbing their fists in front of their foreheads. Derick subconsciously straightened his back, and his heart was on fire.
In this way, their exploration team, surrounded by the crowd, followed the road to the gate of the city and walked out of the Silver City.
As if there was a tacit understanding, Colin, Derrick, Lovia, and even the former Chief Chaplin had just escaped the protection of the city walls, and at the same time looked back at their hometown, which had held out in the darkness for two thousand five hundred and eighty-four years.
They saw that the inhabitants of the Silver City had not departed, but were all standing near the city gate, looking at themselves and the others. With a sweep of the floor, the black-pressed people raised their right arms in unison and clubbed their fists in front of their foreheads.
This is both an expression of the highest respect and the deepest blessing.
Colin Iliad stared silently for a few seconds, closed his eyes, raised his right arm, and waved down sharply: "Go!"
Derrick and the others immediately turned around, carrying the animal skin lantern that emitted a dim yellow light, and set out silently but firmly on the path shrouded in darkness.
Target: "Court of the Giants".
In the "Alien" Divine Realm, Abner, who was watching this scene from the perspective of the giant Grossell and the former chief Chaplin, waved his hand and asked the two "Asmo" who were in charge of playing the video to put away their abilities, and then sighed slightly, and thought in his heart:
"With the things I lent them, it should be easier to clear the Dark Angel this time, right?" At least there can be fewer deaths
A few people ....
"It's a pity that just as I can't get too close to the 'Source Castle', I can't get too close to the 'Sea of Chaos' now, and I can't help directly, otherwise the one in the depths of the 'Unknown Land' may be stimulated.
"However, the original promise of the 'True Creator' by the Machine Emperor still has to be completed, otherwise the 'Hanging Man' will really close the portal of the 'Godforsaken Land' directly, and he can only take the opportunity to open it after rescuing Mr. Door.
"But I guess Adam probably had other calculations, and the true Creator may not be able to hold on to my promises..... Or rather, when I went to fulfill my promise, He had already changed."
As his thoughts turned, Abner turned his attention to Rune, and with the help of his "vessel" eyes, he saw that the northwest "gate" of Beckland, the town of Tarth, had been breached by Fusak and Intis, and the coalition forces had reached the last line of defense in the capital of Mando.
"The goddess's anchor is beginning to shake, if it weren't for the previous act of distributing food that won people's hearts, if it weren't for Vera maintaining the most basic supplies of life in Beckland, it might have completely collapsed by now....
"After all, for most people, faith is not so important as life, and in the end, it is still a true god who protects them.
"This means that the God War is about to begin, and whether the goddess is really in trouble or not, the God of War will not miss this opportunity."
Thinking of this, Abner reached out his right hand and made a move forward, and a message mass shrouded in terrifying power flew out of a bookshelf in the Divine Territory and fell into his hands.
It was the "Hidden Sage" who drank the water of the "River of Eternal Darkness" and was in a state of "eternal sleep".
After Abner became a god, he sent his "information complex" to the "Deep Heaven", and through some arrangement, he established a temporary passage between the goddess and his own god, and then quietly transferred the "hidden sage" to the "alien canon".
Previously, because he was worried that the death of the "Hidden Sage" would reveal some information and let the God of War spy on something, so he retreated and hid, so he did not kill him immediately.
But now that the war is imminent, the "River of Destiny" is the most chaotic time, coupled with the "secret" of the goddess and the "secret" authority of Abner himself, he is sure to hide the news for a short time, disguise himself as the "hidden sage", and join the camp of the "god of war", so as to force the "god of steam and machine", who is still claiming neutrality, to stand on the side of the goddess.
Glancing at the mass of information in the "dead silence", Abner once again reached out and took the blood-colored cross "War Red" formed by the "Red Priest".
Then, he used the authority of "knowledge" to endow it with more than ten "god-killing" attributes, including the "Spear of Longinus" and the "Sacred Sword of Longilu", and then used the authority of "wisdom" to link the "unknown" and re-"explain" the many "weaknesses" of the "hidden sage.....
After some preparation, Abner grasped the blood-colored cross in both hands and inserted it directly into the message group, which symbolized the "hidden sage".
There were no accidents, and there were no visions, when the "War Red" *** information group was completed, the "Hidden Sage", which was originally in the "dead silence", suddenly turned into an entity and turned into a staff with transparent gems inlaid on the top.
The gem was shaped like a human eye, a cold, unforgiving eye without eyelashes.
The unique manifestation of the "Hermit'..... The Hidden Sage' is indeed the only essence of nature, this is his original essence, right?"
After taking the staff in his hand and studying it for a moment, and giving it a simple name as the "Staff of the Hermit", Abner saw as nine Asmos emerged from the "River of Destiny" and offered their extraordinary properties to their gods.
After the "Hidden Sage" is killed, his extraordinary properties will flow to the world through the different tributaries of the "River of Destiny", and Abner, who has long known this, naturally arranged for someone to intercept it.
"Yes, while there are definitely some fish that slipped through the net, the two copies of Sequence 1 and the two copies of Sequence 2 on the Hidden Sage' have been stopped, and the others are not so important
。
"After all, even if someone notices that the extraordinary materials of the 'Voyeur' path have suddenly increased a lot, it will be at least a month or a few months later, and by then the Divine War has long been over, and there is no need to hide the death of the Hidden Sage."
After casually encouraging Asmo, Abner put away those characteristics and only expanded the "Hermit's Staff" formed by uniqueness into an "information state" again, temporarily integrating it into his own "information".
"Use 'interpretation' to label myself again..... That way, even the gods of steam and machines won't be able to tell if I'm a 'hidden sage.'"
After appreciating his "disguise", Abner used the authority of the "Memory Theater" to enter the low-dimensional world, and then came to a "information coverage" from the lower dimension to the higher dimension, creating the illusion that the "hidden sage" had returned from the ascension of a god.
Godforsaken Lands, a secluded abandoned city-state.
The dark wolf Kotal's body covered with dark shorthair quickly coalesced and formed.
After a fierce battle with the boy who was crazy enough to use "Leodro" as a means of attack, he saw that he could not do anything, and decisively abandoned the "curtain" that he had paid a lot of money to get his hands on, and only then did he take the opportunity to get out at the cost of a death.
He looked around for a moment, then ran away without looking back.
The "God of Wishes" didn't think about the loss of the "curtain" at all, he didn't choose to resurrect on the spot, but hoped to use the "curtain" to drag the guy who had something to do with multiple gods, so as to buy more time for himself to escape.
To survive from the Second Age to the present, Kotal has relied on following the will of the heart, never being greedy when he shouldn't.
On the other side, Crane, who had killed the "Black Demon Wolf" once, had just come into contact with the velvety "curtain" when he was polluted by the power of the "True Creator", and then heard His voice:
"Go to the Court of the Giants and meet Sasriel."
Crane quickly used several methods, but failed to remove the contamination of the "True Creator", he did not dare to stay any longer, and summoned the projection of the "Star Staff" to "teleport" to a location he had previously explored.
The "true creator" has come to a thought, will Amun be far away?
After a few seconds, the air here fluctuated, and a tiny creature crawled out that was hard to see with the naked eye. The creature swelled rapidly, turning into Amun, who wore a peaked soft hat and a classical black robe.
Amon straightened the monocle he was wearing in his right eye, outlined the corners of his mouth, and chuckled, "Someone is finally going to open that door."
·····.
Vrsac, located in the Great Basilica of Dusk, just outside the city of Saint-Millon.
The Patriarch of the Church of the God of War handed a beautifully framed oil painting covered with red cloth to Boris, the Grand Inquisitor, and said in a tone without much emotion:
"This is the seal '0-13', 'the last feast.'
"It was God who exchanged it from the solar heretics at great cost." "Now, on behalf of God, I give you this seal.
"God says it will get you back to your peak in a short time."
