Chapter 424: Bad Status Quo

762

In the end, first of all, Ulorius did not have a strong desire to save them, and secondly, he was considered by Amon to be a "traitor" and "an accomplice of Sasriel", no matter what he did, he was "also a traitor in Silver City", adding another level to these human sins.

He didn't want to pay for it, either.

What's more, knowing the intentions of Medici and the others, he had already made a decision, and his colleagues were more important, and he didn't have the heart to pay attention to the lives of more than 10,000 people in this city - fate is like this, and there is always a trade-off.

However, to the extent that he could move, Ulorius would also guide the people of Silver City to save themselves.

Whether or not it will succeed is not within the scope of His thinking.

Ulorius walked quietly through the Silver City, wherever he wanted, and he could stop at any time, as if the people around him could not see him, but they would also skillfully avoid him when he came to a sudden stop.

Suddenly, Ulorius jerked into the distance, and then he snapped his eyes shut and didn't dare to look, as if the look up just now was just an act of conditioned reflex, and closing his eyes was the instinct to foresee some crisis!

Fortunately, he didn't see anything, only felt that the direction of fate suddenly became strange, like a pool of muddy water.

……

"See what I'm doing? Is that Ulorius? ”

As soon as he pushed the door of the black convent in, turned around in the storm of secrecy and thunder, and finally landed on the Eastern Continent fifty kilometers away from his destination because he saw an interesting dream, the Lord of the Withered had just stepped on the land of the Eastern Continent with his front feet, and felt a gaze from the north on his hind feet.

Now that his eyes were good, he covered his eyes with one hand and looked there for a moment, then withdrew his gaze with little interest.

After all, I didn't know Ulorius.

The record gives a more detailed account of the angel under the Creator's throne, and also gives a general account of the current position of the angels on the earth.

As for the case of the true Creator, the two angels, "Fate" and "War", already have opposite attitudes.

- Medici does not admit and does not want to admit that God is the creator he follows, even though he can't really tell the difference between them, but he always thinks that the one who has the heart of man and exercises the things of the gods is the one who has followed him unswervingly for three epochs.

Ulorius's attitude is a little ambiguous in comparison.

The "Angel of Destiny" had long expected such a day, and did not refuse to participate in the "Rose of Redemption" in the Third Age, so it is clear that he did not feel that it was pointless to kill himself and delay time.

However, in such a situation, Ulorius is completely helpless.

Without a second "Rose of Redemption", the fate of the true Creator is now unchangeable, He is dead, it is impossible to change again, and there is no room for change - therefore, Ulorius chose to acquiesce and choose to accept this fate.

However, judging from the slightly complicated situation in the Eastern Continent at the moment, Urorius's attitude did not matter, and the consistent drift of the "fate" path also made him seem to be silent and did not know what was going on in his heart. No matter if he chooses allegiance to a God who doesn't know what 0.0 percent of the true Creator is, or whether he surrenders on the surface and is still angry in his heart, nothing will change.

And after the conversion of the two largest city-states, Amun, who had obtained the Source Fort, was obviously hostile to this place and had a reason to do it.

Since it is impossible to protect them, or even to protect himself, the best choice for Ulorius is to stand still and wait for the development of fate.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ However, Ulorius did not seem to be at ease, as if he had staked something on Medici's fate. ”

After some self-tugging, he resisted his curiosity.

Because he knew that once he really realized the details of this bet, then he would definitely be attracted to it, and he would study it all the way, and even give up following Klein, and he would go straight to Silver City and appear in front of Ulorius. He wanted to, but he couldn't.

Unlike his own half, although he also loves archaeology, the information and records that should have been stored have been transferred, and now the only thing that can attract his attention is change and new possibilities.

If the other came here to the paradise of his dreams, then his only interest here was Silver City and Moon City. There is also the flow of fate of human beings gathered in these two places, which also reduces the probability of his extraneous branches to a certain extent......

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Why don't you go to the Giant Court first? ”

"The history of the Giant's Court is attracting me to the past, and it's rare to wake up, I should at least do something interesting, such as moving the Giant's Court, take a good look at this Klein Moretti, and if I can, I really want to move Chernobyl that was transformed by the ancient sun god with me, it's just a building, God shouldn't be angry with me...... Forget it, let's focus on the present. ”

However, simply "trying to do what is at hand" was already uncomfortable for the God who loved the possibility of free movement, and after a moment of reflection, he realized that there was really nothing to do in God's forsaken land, but it was not as desolate as he imagined.

The line of possibility and the choice of fate here are much less than those of the outside world, but if you look closely, there are still a lot.

"What's that?"

He noticed a line that tried to hide itself from observation, but unfortunately the difference between personality and power was too large, and the owner of this line tried to hide his actions clearly:

"This ...... This has a occult connection with the 'Source Fort', what is it coming down from the Source Fort? And still moving at high speed? ”

He was a little surprised, and soon had a guess: "It should be an extraordinary trait or a seal...... Could it be that such a strong occult connection is the extraordinary characteristic of the sequence that the 'Fool' path has been missing? How did he end up here, this is probably not the handiwork of the ancient sun god or God, if it is the former, Amun, who has been staying in the God's forsaken land, has no reason to let it go, if it is the latter, this extraordinary property should have been polluted, and it will definitely not be used by anyone. ”

"What exactly is this Sequence One feature? Was it an animated seal, or did it occasionally get its secret attendant? ”

His heart suddenly itched (metaphorical and anthropomorphic), and he couldn't wait to use his authority to choose a future and lure this Sequence 1 seal or secret attendant over to see - on the premise that his half body had already obtained a "secret attendant", he was not interested in hunting this guy and sealing it, anyway, the god of the earth had walked for thousands of years on the path of "gathering extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness - correct ritual - becoming a god", if anyone really had the courage to jump directly into essentia, He was willing to applaud this god.

Oh, and the real creator takes the lead in jumping into the sea? That's already been applauded.

"This mysterious waiter...... It's not a human being, it's a living being, it's not a seal, it's a living being. ”

"I want to talk to this mysterious waiter...... No, no, no, let's go to the Giant Court first...... No, no, go to Chernobyl first...... No, it can't be, remember what I'm here for, I'm here to insure myself, and I should keep up with the Medici at once. ”

After a struggle with himself, he reaffirmed his purpose and walked towards Medici and the others.

Ten minutes later.

Now this body that has not been transformed by divinity is really useless. On the way to Klein's location, after passing through a small hill and crossing a dry river valley, he saw a dead city-state.

Most of the city-state's buildings have collapsed, and what remains has a pointed top, as if symbolizing the towers leading to heaven.

They have dark red vines growing on their surface, and they bear fruits that I don't know if I can eat or not.

If you look at the city-state, you will find that in front of each house there is a sarcophagus in which are either white bones or just a little decomposed.

What they all have in common is that they are very deformed, some have four legs, some have cracked gaps in the center of their eyebrows, some lack skin, revealing flesh and blood, and some have arms wrapped around their necks like tails.

"It's like a text made up of birds and snakes...... This is the site of a civilization in ancient times that believed in the city-state of 'Grim Reaper' Gregali. This language, like the dialect of the 'Night Country', has long since been completely extinct......"

He looked at the words and words that remained on the ruined walls, and then he could no longer look away, leaving the matter of tracking behind.

……

In the stronghold outside of Mooncity, Hermes had successfully entered the sleep of the dozing guards. And what he saw was smoothly transmitted to the minds of the other two people with the "spiritual link".

The dream naturally showed some scenery of the Eastern Continent, such as the Moon City he was familiar with, and the stronghold where he was now.

Probably because of the subconscious desire to go home, Moon City is not far from the stronghold, and it seems that you can reach it by walking around.

Hermes created a model human with no facial features in his dream, and then manipulated it to approach the guards, and this model would appear as the most familiar and trusted person in the other person's subconscious, which would naturally reduce the other person's vigilance.

Sure enough, when the figure slowly approached the guard, the man with a somewhat misty gaze saw it, and immediately a look of surprise and surprise appeared on his face, and at the same time, he slurred and slowly took the initiative to talk to it:

"How do you ...... Here it comes? ”

Hermes manipulated the mannequin and asked, "What have you been doing lately?" ”

This sentence has a soothing flavor, and in the eyes of the male guard, it is the greeting of friends who have been reunited for a long time. The reaction in the dream will always be relatively sluggish for a while, and then the man with a deformed waist nods, and the smile on his face is still simple and gentle:

"Recently...... Very good......"

"My family...... It's all ...... Waiting for treatment...... I'm going to come out and explore and accumulate credit......"

"Pray, High Priest, Heal ...... Everyone"

While listening, Hermes quietly fed back these contents through the psychic link, wanting to get some answers, Klein immediately understood what the other party was talking about, so he also replied from this private chat channel:

"The people of Moon City are prevalent in mild or severe deformities, and Mr. 'Fool' is able to treat them all. …… However, only when Mr. Fool is still alive will he answer their prayers, and it stands to reason that this activity should have been stopped for half a month. ”

- After all, the treatment of deformities and the expulsion of toxins are used by the "Life Staff" blessed by the Source Castle, and this relatively harmless seal has been sealed once by Klein, and is still stored in the Rorsted Islands.

If you come into contact with Moon City, you need to prove your identity, and Klein can also take out the "Life Staff" from the historical projection.

Hermes bowed slightly, understood something, and asked the guard again:

"Has anyone been treated recently?"

The male guard was silent for a while, a thoughtful look appeared on his face, and then nodded: "Yes......"

Finished.

The word popped up in Klein's heart.

He didn't think that Amon would have the interest of answering the prayers of the people in Moon City, and even stealing the deformities on the other party's body and treating them, if someone was really cured in this half a month, then - the biggest possibility is that these people have all been parasitized and become clones!

Amon obtained Fort Source, and must have gained some of the power of the "Fortune Teller", including the "Joker" and the "Faceling". If I guessed correctly, the people who prayed to the "Fool" and were healed were already parasitized, and then Amon used the power of the "Faceling" to change their bodies, correct the deformed parts, and then take on the original appearance of the healed...... He is good at disguise and deception!

…… Something bad happened, and Crane clenched his fists.

He didn't say a word, but his heart beat violently like never before, and he couldn't help but start worrying about the situation in Silver City, whether the "Sun" and Chief Colin and the others were still safe, whether they were still themselves.

But the more calm he became, he bit his lip and forced himself to turn his attention to the matter in front of him again.

Medici watched for a moment, and then felt that he was not very interested in inquiring about information.

He yawned, retreated a few meters away, found a rock, sat down, and took an apple out of his bosom and began to roast it.

After receiving this answer, Hermes frowned as well, and doubled his vigilance again. He didn't ask what this so-called "healing ritual" looked like, because it was difficult for the Sequence 6 guard in front of him to say why, and they were all "high personalities" and "mysterious, not to be looked at" directly. So Hermes changed the question:

"Did your family go for treatment?"

The male guard was slightly embarrassed: "My merits...... Not ...... yet"

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this does not guarantee that the person in front of him and his family have not been parasitized by Amon, it is more or less good news in comparison.

Immediately afterwards, Hermes considered his words and asked:

"You're still faithful...... Is it? ”

He deliberately left a vague gap in his attempt to clichΓ©. If this guard was still awake, he would definitely realize that this was a clichΓ©, but the other party was still in a half-dreaming world, and when he heard this, the expression on his face actually struggled a little:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yes...... I...... Also faith...... All-Knowing and All-Powerful ......"

"I ...... too Thank you very much ...... 'Fool'...... Save us...... But...... Faith...... Can't change ......"

His voice was getting quieter, but the listener had understood everything.

Klein was a little surprised, and he even began to wonder if it was because the person in front of him had not converted and was still very devout in believing in the ancient sun god, that he and his family had not been given the opportunity to be "cured".

But would an inherently mythical creature like Amon really care about these people? …… If the entire Moon City still believed in the ancient sun god, then the survival of the Moon City was a matter of course...... But if only a part of the people, or even within a family, had different beliefs and opinions, would Amun still make such a subdivision? No, it doesn't sound like something Amon would do, maybe the family was just lucky......

Hermes glanced at Klein again, who immediately detached himself from his thoughts and replied:

"The leader of Moon City, High Priest Nime, is a demigod, a demigod of the Night Path."

Hermes understood, and asked:

"How often do you get treatment? How many people at a time? ”

After asking two questions in one sitting, the male guard's thinking time increased significantly, and the rest of the dream became blurred, as if the energy of thinking was so focused on these two questions that the rest of the body had no time to think.

"Treatment...... Once a week...... About 10 people......"

Great, that is, there have been at most three times so far, and the number of parasitized people is around thirty - which is not a small number.

The thought of these struggling people who managed to survive until sunrise only to die quietly after waiting for a better life...... Under the sun, Klein couldn't help but feel anger and a chill down his spine, and cold sweat broke out in his palms.

"High Priest...... What do you think? ”

At this time, about five minutes had passed, and in the real world, the guard's body had begun to shake, and it would not be long before the other companions noticed that something was wrong, and now he could only hurry up and ask the last question.

"High Priest ......"

The male guard said slowly:

"The High Priest is...... The first ...... The person being treated......"

He ...... Return to normal...... Then, he ...... Hope we ...... ...... Revert, a sound human ......"

As soon as these words came out, Klein's heart seemed to stop beating for a moment.

It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, pouring him cold.

He remembered the High Priest, and of course he remembered, because the High Priest, after receiving the name of "Fool" from the True Creator, did not immediately pray like grasping at a life-saving straw, but, after thinking for several days, found himself an empty room where the seals were kept, and laid a dense seal. After making up his mind to die, he went into it and carefully prayed to this honorable name.

The High Priest did not dare to ask the "Fool" for any salvation or favor, so Crane had to bring out some images of the Silver City to prove to him that he was indeed a trustworthy and good deity, and that he also had the endorsement of the Creator.

There is no one in Moon City who can act as an intermediary between the "Fool" and the leader of the city-state like "Sun" Derick, and the few people who were cured by Klein are also more grateful than faith in their hearts, and the high priest is not familiar with him, and there is no basis for communication, which is destined to have the same attitude between the two cities.

Chief Colin treats the "Fool" cautiously and respectfully, while High Priest Nimes is trembling, even humble.

The high priest of Nimes was afraid that the people of Moon City would be abandoned by the gods for the second time, but he was still cautious and trembling, and made some small prayers to the "fool", praying for some mushrooms to make his people live a better life.

However, all the care and determination of the High Priest will not be taken into account by the "Angel of Time", and in the eyes of the son of the creator of this naturally mythical creature, the High Priest of Nimes is undoubtedly an apostate who led the rebellion against the ancient sun god.

So, he was "killed" quietly and unknowingly.
