889

I didn't expect that after tens of millions of years in the future, the ancient myth could be reproduced in such an incredible way, and Edward couldn't help but sigh that there was really nothing new under the sun.

However, the sun in this world is God again, and in the eyes of the all-knowing and all-powerful God, there is probably nothing new in this world.

"Well, since the River of Eternal Darkness has no objection to my proposal, then I will also find a way to help him cover it up."

"Going back to the High Priest Oracle, although it is most efficient for the Extraordinary and the Spirit Creatures to dig it up, it is still up to him to mobilize unwitting ordinary people to dig the river as much as possible, and let the River of Eternal Darkness make occult connections with everyone in Byron as much as possible. Their fate and future are already tied to the river of eternal darkness, like countless slender men pulling the great boat on the river......"

How can there be living people in the kingdom of the Grim Reaper?

As early as the Quaternary period, the Pale Plague swept from Byron to the northern continent, and the first to suffer was Byron's own people.

In the occult sense, the fate of the country is closely related to death, and the culture and social customs of the country are influenced by the gods, and the god of death means the end - after the return of the god of death, the world after death is promised, and there is a situation where the death archons cannot reduce the mortality rate, and people yearn for death more than life. It looks distorted, but in fact it is in line with the fate of the country.

"They must have already calculated the river course, let me see, the starting point is in the capital, according to the southwest direction of the terrain...... It's good to open a canal for transportation, but I have to interfere with its destination, and I want the river to finally flow into the sea. ”

The port of Bansey is due west of Byron, and it is a little different from the target position, and it seems that it will also make a fuss about the city of calamity.

The "door" on Bansi was not closed, it was only rudely broken.

Edward went to Bansey by himself, but only cut off the "fingers" that had been interrogated inside.

Although the shipping channel is now blocked, the person in charge of handling this matter at that time was nothing more than a demigod.

The demigods don't have the ability to completely close the "door" there, and even if the current god of thunder still insists on not touching the essentia, it is impossible to completely plug this gap, and it is already the limit for the demigods to clean up all the people and things that have been polluted by the city of calamity.

Not to mention that the rumor that the church was uprooted overnight because of cult members is more likely to attract some pirates and adventurers who are curious and like to kill themselves. What's more, among the potions and extraordinary characteristics circulating at sea, those who are good at fighting in the lower sequence, such as "Hunter", "Warrior", "Sailor", ...... The best-selling and easiest to buy, coupled with the aggregation of extraordinary characteristics, maybe the current City of Calamity has secretly eaten a lot of sacrifices sent to the door.

Oh, in fact, the pollution of Calamity City doesn't feel very good in the hand, like a red-hot iron ball, not only uncomfortable to hold, but also randomly imparts some simple and rough fighting instincts to the things around it, and there is no merit at all.

So as soon as he got his hands on it, Edward gave up on making it into a souvenir or gadget to take with him.

With Bansey's position, it would be most appropriate to cause chaos along the Rorsted Islands and the coast of Rune, where "disaster, chaos and war" would be, in line with the symbol of essentia, which would surely resonate with essentia and further revitalize the vicinity.

Of course, if there are some "hunters" and "witches" of sufficient sequences nearby, they can also be a catalyst.

"The god of thunder is both authoritative and violent, he has taken control of both the political and social order, and has considerable prestige among believers and non-believers...... The Fenerportians can't afford to make much of a mess, and their self-perception and national identity with the Rune people will be deepened by their contradictions, which is probably what he wants. ”

Purify each other, you can see it at a glance.

When there is such a greatest force, no matter how chaotic the social order is, it will be suppressed by the god of thunder with absolute power, there are not enough resources, there is a shortage of jobs, and the solution to social contradictions is very simple...... Edward vaguely remembers that in the old days, he had heard young college students at school discuss the villain of a movie, called Thanos.

You see, now Fenerport's employment environment is very good, the state can even assign jobs to everyone who can read, there is no competition pressure in schools and society, human beings are so tenacious, even if they are full of hatred, they will be strong to find a way to survive.

They are like weeds that grow on their own if left unattended, and the burned part becomes nutrients for the new weeds that grow next.

"If you want chaos in this country, you must first make the state of the God of Thunder bad."

Considering that there are so many gods who have enmity and are willing to oppose Him, this seems to be easy to do.

……

The Rorsted Islands, a small island in private harbor belonging to the "Poseidon Church" of the rebels.

A group of workers who had just finished laying the gas pipes were about to find a place to rest and wait for the ship sent by the "Poseidon" church to pick them up and return to Baiam, when they saw the "half-giants" who were said to come from the northern island of Fusak, carrying heavy gray and white stones, walking one step at a time.

These workers had all been involved in the construction of the port, the church and the art gallery, and knew how heavy the gray stone was.

They remember that with the help of logs, horses, and machinery, it was difficult for people to carry similar stones, and the "half-giants" here were as easy as holding toys.

Such power is simply exaggerated to the extreme.

The plumbers admired the strength and physique of the half-giants, and whispered to each other:

"I'm also worried that they're taking our jobs...... But I heard that they were about to leave. ”

"Leave? Where to go, you also think they are Fursacks? ”

"Of course! Who else but the people of Vrsack can grow so tall, and how tall a village is? ”

"You're right, I've long suspected that they were Fursacks, they came to Rune, hiding on such a small island, and they don't know much about the surrounding things, no matter how you look at them, they look like foreign spies who have come to spy on intelligence......"

Derick listened intently to their discussion, and was pleased that the rumors spread by Mr. Alger, the "Hanged Man", had indeed found a market to explain their subsequent move. Immediately afterwards, he pretended to know nothing, and returned to the gathering place of the people of the Eastern Continent with the stone and his own people. Seeing that the outer walls and part of the buildings of the town had been preliminarily built thanks to the efforts of the Silver City Pathfinder team, he nodded and said to his two acquaintances, Candace and Liavar:

"We're leaving soon."

"It's not just us, I've already discussed with the Chief that this time, everyone, including the Eastern Continent, will leave together."

The people of Silver City had no opinion, and they all began to praise Mr. "Fool" quite excitedly.

Although they have not been here for too long, they have already deeply liked their new "hometown", the warmth of the sun, and the tranquility of the red moon night, and they can't wait for their relatives and friends to experience and enjoy it.

Seeing this, Darerick's back subconsciously straightened up, he controlled himself, did not let the smile appear, and said calmly to Candace:

"The Chief said that this time the matter will be handled by me, and Elder Lovia also said that you can trust me, you and I will go back to Silver City and tell the Chief and the other elders of the 'Council of Six' about the situation here.

"Well, Gjinod, you too, Liawal, you're in charge of keeping order here."

He feared that he would not be able to win the trust of the current chief Waite. Hilmon and the others pulled two more companions.

After explaining the corresponding matters, Derik led Candace and Ginod to a secluded place in the temporary residence of the Eastern Continent, bowed his head, clasped his hands, prayed to Mr. "Fool", and made a wish to return to Silver City immediately.

In silence, the scene around them first blurred, stretched, and then fixed and quickly clear.

A wall of weeds fluttering like hair appeared in front of them.

In a matter of seconds, Derick and two of his subordinates were back outside the gates of Silver City.

“…… It's a miracle......" Candace exclaimed, rubbing her eyes with her unarmed hand.

She had thought of many ways to return to Silver City, but she hadn't thought about coming back like this.

For her, it was a miracle from the gods.

Ginnod shook the glass lantern in his hand and muttered without thinking:

"It's much brighter than a skin lantern......"

Before the words fell, he came to his senses and showed a pure, unmischievable smile.

This time, they will also be the messengers who will lead the inhabitants of Silver City out of the Godforsaken Lands.

Derick breathed a sigh of relief and kept his appearance serious:

"While it's dawn, we'll go back immediately and arrange for everyone to get ready for the move. Although Mr. Fool did not give us a time limit, we could not make Him wait too long. ”

He had heard Mr. "The Hanged Man" talk about many things that were just a bit away from success, and he didn't want Silver City to have a similar ending.

Therefore, the next various affairs, if you can grasp it, you must pay attention to it.

As they passed through the gate, the inhabitants of Silver City, who were in charge of the guards, looked curiously at the three pathfinders, and saw hope in their rosy, glowing faces.

"Aren't they coming back?" Someone asked worriedly, fearing that the rest of the Pathfinder Team had died.

Derick replied simply:

"They stayed outside and built makeshift camps."

The guards didn't ask much, fearing that they would be delayed, and just watched Derick and the others go to the Twin Towers.

It wasn't long before Derrick, Candace, and Ginnold met with the remaining Elder Werther Shymon and the rest of the "Council of Six", and described what their team had seen and heard in the outside world.

At the end of the report, they also took out delicate mechanical artifacts such as pocket watches and music boxes as proof.

Yesterday I went to the market with Mr. Alger, although it was not the largest and most prosperous one in the "City of Generosity", but it was enough to make people from the Eastern Continent shine their eyes and rush to consume.

Waite Hilmon, who was more than two meters five tall and more than two meters tall with a dark blue symbol tattooed on his head, and the members of the "Council of Six" other than Derick glanced at each other and exclaimed:

"Your experience is like a dream, no, I can't even dream of it."

After speaking, he said with a solemn expression: "Has the dungeon where the seal is stored been built?" ”

"It was the first building we finished." Derick gave a very definite answer, and then he added, "Elder, Mr. Fool has issued an oracle asking us to give Mr. Alger Wilson the seal he gave us, the Poseidon Scepter. With his help, we can quickly gain a foothold in the outside world, and he will also go with us to the Vorsack Empire in the future,"

"No problem."

Waite bowed his head lightly and immediately issued an order:

"Have everyone bring the necessary items to the training ground.

"In order to prevent accidents, we prayed directly to Mr. 'Fool' and asked Him to transfer us over."

Speaking of this, Waite thought for a moment and said:

"Mr. 'Fool' sent an oracle before, saying that we don't have to wait for the residents of Moon City to come, and High Priest Nim will pray directly to Mr. 'Fool' just like you, and High Priest Nim will personally go back and lead the people of Moon City, and they will reach the outside world with us."

Derick nodded, and Waite asked another curious thing about himself:

"After leaving, shall we go to your temporary residence and wait for arrangements, or shall we go directly to the country called Fusak?"

Derick pondered for a moment: "...... Mr. 'Fool' should mean that we should meet up and go directly to Vrsack, but I can't be sure for the time being, because I heard that it is snowing there now, and the weather is very cold, and we may not be able to adapt to the water and soil after we go." ”

Snow?

Including Waite, all the people in Silver City who did not leave were stunned for a moment: "What is snow?" It's cold, and how cold is it for the extraordinary to be ready to go? ”

But they still didn't ask the question, and they looked forward to the world they were about to see with their own eyes rather than the answer.

Wetter Hilmon's voice involuntarily carried some anticipation:

"Also, let me tell you that the living environment in Moon City is difficult, and many people have been distorted, so we must look at them with normal eyes."

Although Silver City has black grass as its staple food, it still eats the flesh and blood of monsters from time to time to replenish its strength, which makes it possible for some of them to occasionally have deformed children, so everyone is no stranger and strange to this phenomenon.

"Good!" The rest of the members of the "six-member council" responded without hesitation, and their faces were uncontrollably excited.

This time, they are no longer just seeing the light of day, they are entering a new world.

……

Alan Krees sat in a glass conservatory by the sea, and his wife leisurely looked out the window at the undulating sea.

This is the best way to see the scenery in the cold winter.

Velma was teasing little Will, and the child's light and lively laughter dissipated the weirdness in Alan's heart a lot, but the doctor still had an indescribable strangeness when he looked at the scenery around him.

As if he wasn't supposed to be here, but somewhere else.

He seemed to be a little too tired lately, always dozing off in the car, in the carriage and everywhere, and every time he opened his eyes, Alan had a strange feeling, and it took a moment to remember where he was.

This made him a little worried, suspecting that it was a precursor to Alzheimer's disease.

However, the afternoon sun was very good at this moment, and while waiting for the food to be served, Allen's upper and lower eyelids couldn't help but start to grow heavier, and no matter how much he resisted, they still stuck together like glue, leading him into a black dream.

After a few seconds, Alan opened his eyes, and he found himself in a daze sitting in what appeared to be a hotel, dozing off in an easy chair. The room was burning warm, and it was snowing heavily outside the window, and white snow particles made a continuous slight noise on the glass.

Alan remembered that on the day he arrived in Utopia, he was trapped in the city by a sudden heavy snowfall.

The town is located in the north, and the weather is cold, and in such a situation, Alan is of course reluctant to go out to blow the cold wind, so he directly chooses to live in a hotel called "Iris", and rest and enjoy the snow in the warm room.

Alan glanced at the wall clock in a daze, he thought it was time for lunch, but the living room was so comfortable that he really didn't want to leave.

The hotel had an incredible equipment, and even though there was no fireplace, the interior was so warm that he was sweating and taking off his coat as soon as he entered the room.

He couldn't remember if he had asked the waiter about the secret of the hotel's warmth, and it seemed that he had the answer, which was something called "heating" or "underfloor heating"? Alan was very curious about what "heating" was, it was actually better than gas and gas heating, and whether he could install a similar thing in his home, but the waiter politely refused, saying that this was a special device for cold areas, and Beckland was not cold enough to this extent.

Alan brought a newspaper and prepared to open the curtains to take a look at the snow outside.

But the outstretched hand suddenly retracted, and he became sleepy, and sat down directly in the easy chair just now, clutching the newspaper that had not yet been opened, and fell asleep.

Outside the window, the snow was falling, and countless people were suspended by black lines in the street and the rooms on both sides, and on the empty street, a vague figure in light-colored clothes, almost blending into the snow, was slowly moving around.

Seems to be looking for something.

——————

Alan opened his eyes, and he yawned, laughing and complaining to his wife that the sun was dozing off again, as he turned his gaze to the Dixi-style grilled fish that had just been presented.

He was just about to taste it, but suddenly he felt a little cold in his body, as if he had just returned from a warm place. (End of chapter)
