Chapter 457: Shocking and Secretive

759

Da, da, da.

Klein followed Colin Iliad down the stairs, quickly into the base of the Round Tower, and approached the seals that Silver City had collected.

The extraordinary materials in Godforsaken are abundant, but the environment is harsh, the dangers are frequent, and there are few extraordinary people, so there should be more seals accordingly...... The thought flashed through Klein's head, and it felt like some hell of a joke. After carefully questioning the Chief, he learned that the number of mid-to-high-level seals in Silver City's collection—that is, Level 2 and Level 1 seals—was really quite a lot, and Level 1 could find more than a dozen pieces.

"These are the remnants of the former Elder and Chief."

Klein nodded slightly, he could see that more than half of the seals here were corresponding to the warrior path.

He took a closer look at the seals and found that most of them were kept in a relatively "safe" state, with no sudden outbursts of negative effects, and were able to quickly make potions when needed.

As for the spiritual imprint in it...... Not a problem here. Silver City bears the curse of close relatives killing people, and under the deliberate arrangement of the Council of Six, almost all the residents in Silver City can guarantee about three generations of blood relations, ensuring that there will be no injuries and death, unable to move but no relatives do it, of course, if this situation really occurs, it can only make people ruthlessly move the injured out of Silver City.

In other words, we are all relatives, and we all have this certain similarity to the spiritual imprint in extraordinary objects. As stacked from generation to generation, they will also be more stable when turned into potions, reducing the chance of getting out of control.

But it's definitely not a good thing either.

Colin Iliad walked quietly ahead with a torch, lighting the animal fat candles on the walls along the way.

Although darkness is no longer dangerous, people still maintain the habit of setting up light sources around them. He led Klein to the bottom of the round tower, and said in a calm voice: "As you can see, Silver City is mainly based on warrior paths, we don't have the good luck and gifts like Moon City, we have all the recipes and rituals of the path thousands of years ago, even if we lose some parts, we can still have other promotion paths to choose from." ”

The two cities had previously had a certain exchange, and the high priest and the council exchanged letters, which was also the instruction of him, the "fool".

"The seals corresponding to Sequence 4 left by the previous elders and chiefs are often inherited by the next one."

Colin paused for two seconds before he said again, "It's rare for the two to take different paths. However, as determined by Derik Berg, my previous Chief accidentally obtained the Sequence 3 recipe for the adjacent path 'Reaper' and built the Mausoleum, but unfortunately failed to be promoted in the Mausoleum, and I did not inherit his extraordinary characteristics. ”

"Deric gave us a guess, and the investigation later revealed that his guess was completely correct, and the charm he provided came in handy at the most critical moment, allowing Silver City to escape a catastrophe."

Crane nodded.

As one of the onlookers at the time, Klein clearly remembers everything about the life-saving prop "Stealer's Charm" given to Colin by the "Fool" and given to Colin by Daerrick. Colin felt that Gelman Sparrow was an oracle, and that Derick's choice was very correct at that time, so he praised the other party in front of the oracle.

"Derrick is outstanding."

"Yes, he's smart and very observant."

Adult communication is complicated...... Klein responded quietly, and sighed in his heart that the little "sun" probably preferred the chief and himself to praise him directly, rather than these twists and turns.

Soon, Crane arrived at the underground sealing room.

The major forces like to put these dangerous things a few meters or even tens of meters below to prevent them from getting out of control and causing disasters.

Crane looked at them one by one under the leadership of Colin, don't do it if it's too dangerous and uncontrollable, and don't want to sacrifice it first to use it, but among those who he thinks can be exploited, he also touched it closely, confirming that he can summon them from the historical projection when necessary.

Anyway, he doesn't have a secret couple now, so he doesn't occupy a quota.

Klein regretted that he had been too concave outside Moon City at that time, and he was afraid of Amon, so he didn't go directly to the bottom of Moon City to take a look at the seal there - but he regretted it in his mind and it was over, if he really wanted to go in, he probably wouldn't be able to get out again.

"Can I go and see your god-level seals?"

Wandering underneath the dimly lit underground, Crane asked casually.

Darek once mentioned that there were two god-level seals in Silver City, that is, level 0 in the outside world. One of them is called the "Crown of Glory", and in the official information revealed by Silver City, it is the crown that the giant king Ormir once wore, while the other one has no information.

The first one is so big that Klein can't help but be curious about the information of the other one, but he can't find any news on the surface, is it like 0-08, with the special and terrifying trait of "you know it, it knows you"? But that's unique to the high-level seal of the "audience", and it doesn't look like it will be used by Silver City.

"I have an extraordinary ability to draw power from history, so I wanted to take a look at those two god-level seals, maybe it would help."

Klein explained it again, saying that he had no ill intentions.

As he spoke, he also took out the "Life Cane", an item temporarily loaned out by Silver City, from the historical projection to dispel Colin's suspicions.

The Chief was speechless, narrowing his eyes slightly.

After a second or two, Colin retracted his gaze, looked at the gloomy front and said, "There are two god-level seals in Silver City, one of which is called 'Crown of Glory', which has various abilities such as breaking lies, disguise, and examining the mind, corresponding to the warrior path, but the specific sequence is not clear. ”

"And what about the second one?" Klein asked.

Colin didn't speak, but began to look at the oracle with an inquiring eye, and Crane immediately realized through his eyes that the origin of this seal was probably larger, larger than the crown of the Giant King, or it might involve some ancient secrets, and it might attract the attention of some beings in the outside world, bringing unpredictable dangers to Silver City and himself.

The chief should be thinking, thinking about whether to tell himself this secret...... Hey, this must be the last hole card of Silver City, right? They didn't use it when Amon attacked, but now they want to ......

Klein didn't speak, he looked at Colin without blinking.

After a moment, a minute or two of silence, Colin seemed to have made a decision, and he took another deep look at Klein, and said slowly:

"Your Excellency, if this is the will of the gods, I will tell you a secret thing, at present, the entire Silver City, only I know."

…… Did he take my casual remark as a hint of a "fool"? Klein is a little inexplicable, he thinks that the god "fool" he plays has always been a breeze with his sleeves and a bright wind, at least he will not let his divine envoy take the seal of the believer because this seal is very powerful, and he will not hand you over to a possible enemy...... But he didn't know what to say, so he had to wait quietly for the rest of the story.

At this point, Colin Iliad looked up at Gelman Sparrow, and his visibly tired face had an extra layer of solemnity and a hint of bitterness, not at all as false as an improvisation:

"That secret is related to our second god-level seal in Silver City."

"It's called 'The Gift of the Earth.'"

"Earth's bounty...... Klein listened to the name, "this is supposed to be an item that belongs to the 'Cultivator' pathway, just like Frank who gave you mushrooms and other food." ”

"That's what we guessed."

The Chief nodded, "That's why we call him 'Abundance'." ”

Crane nodded thoughtfully: "Sure enough, it's because in the giant myth that has been circulated in Silver City, there is a 'Goddess of Harvest'." ”

The two words are pronounced similarly in the Giants' language, perhaps because they were both used to describe the Giant Queen.

Colin Iliad sighed and continued:

"Yes."

"It is precisely because of it that the area around Silver City can grow black-faced grass, so that we do not completely sink in the Deep Dark Age......"

Klein's pupils suddenly dilated slightly:

"The black-faced grass is a derivative of this seal?"

He remembered very well that the discovery of black-faced grass in general education textbooks was regarded as a key turning point in the history of Silver City, and he thought that without this safe and harmless staple food, Silver City might have become a paradise for monsters long ago.

Silver City's innate conditions are not as good as Moon City, and its population and overall strength are not as good as Moon City, if there is no safe food, they will really drown in the dark world early.

At this moment, Klein thought of many things.

I finally understood why the mushrooms I gave had abnormal changes in Silver City, shortened the growth cycle, enhanced the effect, and even become larger, which was different from the original description of the product that Frank gave himself.

So, your curse is actually ......

After a brief silence, Colin Iliad's gaze swept across his face, and his voice suddenly became low:

"You guessed it right, it is precisely because of it that we bear the fate of being cursed, and only those who are killed by their immediate family members do not become terrible evil spirits."

"The 'abundance' we have gained has come at a price."

Speaking of this, Colin's tone changed slightly, sincerely thanking Mr. "Fool" and Frank Lee for sending the mushrooms:

"So, after seeing Mr. Frank's work, we know what true abundance should look like."

The gray-haired, tired-looking Colin Iliad had a dazed look in his eyes, and seemed to think of his father, mother, brother, sister, eldest son, youngest son, daughter, and eldest grandson who had been killed by his own hands.

Crane's expression froze.

His voice became erratic as a result:

"Lovia once said that after being away from Silver City, a single battle dead did not turn into an evil spirit. I didn't tell her that this was the truth, because the 'Gift of the Earth' covers so much that most of the dying are unable to leave the area in time. ”

"It's a secret that every chief talent has in his hands, and I'm trying to explore and fight in the hope that those who come after me won't have to suffer this kind of pain again."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Chief."

Klein suddenly thought of something, the word "abundance" was like a clue, stringing something between Chief Colin's words, these chaotic and vague thoughts swirled back and forth in his mind, and suddenly, as if he had grasped a spiritual light, his voice raised unnaturally:

"Why do you call 'the gift of the earth' also 'abundance'? What does this item have to do with the 'Goddess of Harvest'? ”

The Silver City Chief, who was visibly old, exhaled slowly, and gave Crane a tired smile:

"You found it."

Crane's breathing unconsciously became a little shorter, and the secret that Silver City couldn't avoid was about to be revealed in front of him.

Colin Iliad added in a deep voice:

"Yes, because Eumibella is long dead, and His body is in the Silver City, the 'Gift of the Earth'......"

His words seemed to have been brewing for a long time, and finally came out:

"Back when Derrick revealed the names of the gods of the outside world, I wondered who the 'Mother Earth Goddess' was who had formed an alliance with the God of War. Because the 'God of War' is like the eldest son of the Giant King, and the Silver City has a record of Omibella's death, but there is no record of a later successor to inherit this path to becoming a god......"

Who killed Queen of Giants?

……

Who has become the true God of the 'earth' way?

I didn't expect to watch the Lord of Mystery (Youth Version) play the book and still eat such a shocking melon, and now the two old days are in deep thought together.

The demon of knowledge slowly grabbed another handful of melon seeds, he liked to think about the problem while eating melon seeds when he was still in the Western Continent, and vaguely remembered that this should be the small preference left by the one hundred and forty-fifth martyred person. He stuffed his shell into his mouth without knowing it, and his eyes flashed with a flood of data, extracting information from ancient secrets.

But no matter how he calculated, the conclusions he came to were the general consensus among the current high-level extraordinary knowledge:

Mother Earth is Omibella, the queen of giants who has been successfully promoted.

There is no spiritual world, the data is wrong...... No match was retrieved from the current circulating myths and legends...... Maybe I'll have to ask Seven Lights.

The persons of the Seven Lights of the Spirit Realm are similar to those of the Angelic True God, but they are much more useful than the normal Angelic True God. In addition to their symbiosis with the Epoch Age, they must know a lot of secret information - it's just that they are not powerful, they are still vassals of the spirit world, and they will hide the news for various reasons.

Edward thought for a moment, and suddenly said in a questioning tone:

"Secret?"

The Demon of Knowledge didn't know much about the Goddess of the Night and the Hidden Authority, but after quickly grabbing the information, he immediately nodded: "That's right, if there is no secret, this matter will be difficult to do. Thinking about it this way, the sun god should have just wanted to hide the evidence of the death of the giant queen among his followers, but he didn't expect that the cataclysm happened to bury the truth completely...... Hey? ”

Looking at the suddenly changing expression of the demon of knowledge, Edward blinked:

"I hadn't thought of it yet, but you have a point—but, you know, there was a 'Rose of Redemption' before Cataclysm, and if Eumibella was dead by then, who was at the feast? And why does He keep hinting at others as Eumibella? Even his own son, the God of War, is convinced that this is his own mother. ”

"I don't know."

The demon of knowledge touched his stubble-free chin and thought with the appearance of a literati in the Western Continent:

"But the method of playing that is circulating here shouldn't be also used by these gods to 'maintain human nature', right?"

"Either the god of war knows, but just acquiesces, after all, the mother and son are also a natural alliance, and he has a close relationship with this earth mother god and it is easier to deter other gods, but if he knows but does not avenge his mother, does not grieve his mother's death, but uses it, then the picture of mother-son love he plays should make him self-aware and even out of control."

"But now the god of war is in full swing, and there is no sign of getting out of control."

"That is, the god of war does not know." Edward analyzed it logically, and then suddenly laughed, "I don't know, but I can continue to play mother and son - oh, to be honest, only the belief in the god of war is allowed in Fusak, and even the ally Mother Earth God will be arrested in the pagan inquisition when she comes, which shows that the love of mother and son and the love of allies are not as good as benefits, and it feels worse than night and thunder." ”

The Demon of Knowledge nodded slightly.

"However, who is the current Mother Earth Goddess?"

"A woman who has been quietly united with the Daughter of Secrecy from the end of the Tertiary Age has slain the queen and quietly replaced her...... This person is quite terrifying, and his scheming and city government should not be underestimated...... Is it because you don't want to make enemies, so you disguise yourself as the queen of giants? ”

He felt that this guess was quite correct, and he grabbed another handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into his mouth, turned his head and asked:

"Who do you think that would be?"

"I don't know."

Edward said, "However, the Mother Earth Church has always had the practice of pulling vampires into the church to serve as priests. ”

"You say, is that because the person who occupies this identity is the Bloodline, or is he playing Lilith, the ancestor of the Bloodline?"

"Is it possible, that's ......?"

"Unlikely." Edward frowned, "Isn't He dead a long time ago?" He died before the sun god could show his skills. ”

"But it doesn't seem to be clearly documented." The demon of knowledge was also a little skeptical, "Could it be that he really negotiated the conditions with the Daughter of Secrets, and quietly stiffened Li Daitao?" But how did you fool the eyes of the sun god? ”

I couldn't stand it, I still had mosquitoes at home after two months, and I was chased by mosquitoes to run everywhere, hiding in the mosquito net, and my mobile phone codeword.
