Chapter 256: Advancing Irion (End of Volume 3)
The Heavenly Abyss and the Silent Flowing Holy River Grey Prison were left behind, and the four of them slowly walked along an abandoned road to the north, Gu Tie ignited the Illuminated Star Array, and Koshawar turned around and praised it rarely: "This Illuminated Star Array is well mastered, young man! In addition, the Star Array you used with a powerful explosion is based on the 130-77 and 21-814 interstellar energy annihilation principle?" At the beginning, you had a strong sense of these two starlines, and I was wondering if you would grow into a rare dual-line astrologer, but I didn't expect you to explore this point on your own, which is really a bit unexpected to me...... If you have time, tell me about the structure of the star array, there must be a lot of mistakes that can be corrected, after all, your guy's theoretical foundation is not so solid. Hmph, a fifth-level astrologer, the headquarters is really generous, obviously it's still a stinky little ghost......"
At this moment, how much Gu Tie wished that Jonah had heard this slurring of praise. The 17-year-old boy had been seeking the affirmation of his teacher, and he had waited so long for this moment. "Teacher, that ......" Gu Tie whispered, "Can you touch my head and repeat this passage?"
"Don't get an inch!" said the old man as he blew his beard and glared, but after a while, he reached over and rubbed two handfuls on the apprentice's head, and said, "...... Well done...... Okay, right?"
"Thank you. Gu Tie wants to imprint this memory deeply in his mind, engrave it in the virtual ditch back, and when Jonah becomes the master of the body again, he can find this warm picture as soon as possible, and let this moment become a gift left by the Advent.
Koshawar strode away a little embarrassed, catching up with Byron-Arivia, and could hear the conversation between the two astrologers, one old and one young, from a distance: "Uncle, I see that Jonah has no problem rating at level six, his strength is very strong." ”
"Nonsense! I don't know how many pounds he has? How far is he...... I didn't get to the sixth level of astrologer until I was forty years old, and he's only sixteen years old, no, seventeen!"
"But Uncle Seth Battheion highly recommended it to me, and Jonah is now his apprentice. ”
"Fart! He's my apprentice, and as long as I'm not dead, no one can snatch him!"
"That's true, but Jonah also leads a research project called the 'Three Annihilation Arrays', which is Uncle Battheon's domain. ”
"Shit! That guy will only grandstand! If I hadn't fallen out with him at that time and been obstructed by him everywhere, I would have become a ninth-level astrology master by now!"
Gu Tie smiled slightly, wrapping the robe on his body tightly. The air began to get colder, and as soon as it was only ten miles deep into the hinterland of the northern continent, the temperature dropped significantly, and it was still a warm early summer in the east, but thick snow could be seen on the mountains here, and boots "creaked" over the gravel ground, and the plants that grew here were only withered yellow thorny shrubs, and not even a single wild animal had been seen after walking for so long.
The terrain gradually flattened down, as if it had come to a plain area, and the illuminated star array could not illuminate the darkness in the distance, but fortunately the clouds were thin today, and the bright starry sky lit the way forward for the believers. "Ah, North Star!" Gu Tie raised his head and shouted happily, the night sky of the 'world' was completely different from reality, but only this iconic star in the northern sky stayed in a familiar position, shining at the night of the two worlds at the same time. Yakong, who was beside him, also raised his head and looked at the Milky Way across the sky. "Look, if you're in my world, it's Ursa Minor, and this side is Orion, and if you turn one direction, you'll see a very bright star, which is Sirius in Canis Major. But now everything is completely different, and it's an amazing feeling...... It's so unfamiliar, but it's very familiar, as if the starry sky in front of you is the correct truth. Gu Tie pointed to the night sky and said to the red-haired man.
"Think...... Home?" Unexpectedly, Jekon spat out two words faintly.
"Perhaps. Gu Tie replied, "My home is very close, as long as you close your eyes and open them again, you can go back, but this is also my home, sometimes I really can't tell which side is more suitable for me as a rootless guy." ...... I'm sorry, I know you don't understand these words, but sometimes I just want to talk to someone, and there are so many things that I can't worry about, and if I don't pour a little bit out, my head will blow up. ”
Jekon no longer spoke, still more accustomed to the silence between contemplation and disorientation.
As he walked, Gu Tie suddenly remembered the tenth prophecy of the Nameless Book: "A heretic with a strange name will show the way, he is an enemy of Gamaliel and a disciple of the blasphemer." Another door will open for the newborn Son of Iryon. Do the Chinese know that "infidels" refers to Hasegawa Honsaka, and that "the newborn son of Erien" refers to themselves, and that the so-called "other gate" is what Hasegawa called "entering Erion through the fifth gate"? What is hidden in this ancient city that has been abandoned for thousands of years? And what does the betrayer Segres want to do for himself?
He couldn't help but take out the fragments of the nameless book from his bosom, after the water, fire, wind and frost, the yellowed parchment was crumpled and illegible, Gu Tie could barely read the eleventh prophecy through the light of the star array: "The high mountain peaks are inhabited by red angels, the deep crypts are inhabited by blue demons, and there is a group of people who do not believe in gods and devils live in the plains, they do not need blessings and curses, they just need to sow seeds, harvest, thresh, birth, growth, and death." Ayala and Gamaliel must make a choice when the flames rise in the false castle. ”
"Okay. He read it five times, tucking the parchment back into his underwear, "Still babbling like this." If the red angel is the thirty-six-winged fire angel Metatron, this intention refers to the Red Brotherhood, and the corresponding crypt demon is the Ghost Organization. People who don't believe in fraternities and ghosts, pacifists who just want to maintain the status quo, are they talking about the 'betrayals' of the Adventist organization of Hasegawa Collapse?Is it a coincidence or something else that has the same name as my organization?" Gu Tie frowned and muttered to himself, "I have to discuss with Lao Xiao, sometimes I have to have a conspiracy theorist by my side......
He sorted out the situation in front of him and snapped his fingers: "First, follow Koshawar to the so-called 'camp', where a large group of rebels against the Brotherhood have gathered, wanting to break into Erion to find the artifact; Second, use the communicator to find the whereabouts of the Dragon Venerable, and the Dragon Queen is beside him, but what are they going to do when they come to the Northern Continent? Is it possible that they want to get a piece of the pie in Arian? Is the Dragon Queen coerced or voluntary? Third, find out the Brotherhood, the Ghost, The goal of the three betrayers is to solve the many puzzles surrounding them, which seems to be very troublesome, and it seems that some small means need to be developed to determine whether the people next to them are descenders one by one...... Fourth, it seems hard and interesting to find a way to take Brother Jonah out into the world, so why don't you do it tomorrow?"
Yekong turned his head slightly and glanced at him, Gu Tie hurriedly took out one more finger: "Of course, there is also the fifth: find all the necessary artifacts to resurrect Uncle Toba and Yekong's lover." I wonder how the Pitchfork folks are doing...... After such a long time, have they already opened the Tower of Trials to obtain the artifact?"
The red-haired man suddenly said, "Elliott." ”
"Huh?" Gu Tie said puzzled.
"Elliott. Jerkon repeated, pointing ahead, "Contact." ”
"You're saying you've made contact with the Rose Knight......s? There is communication equipment in the camp, and you can directly contact the Pitchfork Squad?" Gu Tie guessed in surprise.
Jekon didn't nod or shake his head, it definitely seemed like a default expression. Gu Tie patted his chest and sighed, "It's been so long, and there's finally good news...... It seems that many problems will be solved when we arrive at the camp, but how far is it?"
At this time, the old man in front of him shouted: "Boy, extinguish the Illuminated Star Array! Disarm all defensive star arrays and magic arrays, and if you feel that there is a mental power scan, don't resist, let it check your body! Don't resist, or you will be blown up into steaming beef soup!"
"I still like to eat beef ......soup," Gu Tie muttered, turning off the lighting star array. The four of them stood in the middle of the wilderness, the starlight sprinkled all over the four masters, and there were no bulging buildings within a radius of dozens of miles, and there was no place like a "camp" at all. Suddenly, a wave as cold as water rose from under his feet, and Gu Tie was excited, and he couldn't hold back without dodging or counterattacking. The uncomfortable cold feeling was like a big worm crawling along its legs, around its crotch, along its spine and up to the back of its head, and slipping away with a little spiritual imprint like a dragonfly in the spiritual pool, "Okay." "The door is only open for half a minute, hurry up and get in, don't get stuck in the door, you'll die." ”
The buzzing loud noise suddenly sounded from the ground, countless gravels bounced up on the ground, the long and poignant alarm sounded throughout the four fields, "poof............ four snow-white steam suddenly erupted from the ground, a crack appeared out of thin air and slowly expanded, sand and gravel poured in like a waterfall, "squeak quack" With the sound of violent friction of metal, the earth in front of Gu Tie slowly rose, the iron gate was staggered and folded, and a brightly lit underground gate appeared in front of him.
"Welcome to the Northern Continent, Lord Jonah of Ecbatana, our beloved baron, astrologer, and master of the Heart of the Volcano!" shouted many high-pitched voices in unison, "One, two, three, salute!"
"Is that you?" Gu Tie's eyes widened in surprise.
The pink-hatted dwarves of Ecbatana saluted in a messy salute and screamed in unison, "This is a new adventure for you, Lord Jonah!, are you ready to take the submarine 'St. Jonah' to the city of Aryon, buried beneath the ruins of the volcano...... Captain?"
