Chapter 792: Cheese Desert (2)
What a terrible number of stakes stood in this infinite desert, and there were corpses like this on each of them? It was as if every corpse was exactly the same, but on closer inspection, there were some differences, but I couldn't tell what was different.
Suddenly, Tyr noticed the difference between them, that is, each corpse had various words engraved on its belly, as if it were one of the pages of a book. Originally, I thought it was a blood mark, but if I looked closely, it was densely packed with words, but I didn't know these words, and the words on each corpse were very similar, just a few differences.
"Ah~~miserable~~. ”
Suddenly, a corpse let out a scream, and Tyr almost rushed over to hug Côte d'Ivoire. The environment here is terrifying enough, these corpses can still speak? Is this intended to scare everyone else crazy? Although he is a god of war, there is no problem at all in making himself fight, but looking at this kind of terrifying thing...... Even the god of war can't stand it. There's no horror movie to watch in Valhalla, and it's a little too real.
After one corpse screamed, all the corpses followed the scream, but the voice was very small, as if it was so painful that it had no strength to scream at all.
"Tyr, why is your face blue?
Tyr shook his head: "It's okay, it's just seasickness just now, and it will be fine soon." ”
"Oh. That's nothing, or I thought you were scared. Côte d'Ivoire turned and walked straight to the corpse-populated desert with Tyre. The distance between the two wooden stakes is about two or three meters, and the wooden stakes are quite high, even if you are careless, you will not touch the corpse.
Looking ahead, there were rows of neat corpses like this, they opened their hands to block the sky, and the corpses that were close looked far away, but the corpses in the distance felt that they were all huddled together, as if they were not allowed to pass at all. Is this really a road? It feels like a corridor, and where will it lead?
I've just walked a few steps. Tyr looked back...... Behind his body is all the same scenery. The sea was gone, the beach was gone, and only the corpses and stakes remained......
"There is no living in this world, and there is no dead man. Because wherever there is a corpse, it will be covered by these ghosts. They could do anything to find a working corpse. Even such corpses are very precious to the ghosts. Even if it suffers, the ghost will resolutely cover the corpse and experience that pain. This is the dead man who wants to continue to live. The obsession of wanting to breathe another breath of the air of life. If they can give up this obsession, they will be purified and disappear from it, and they will no longer have to suffer this kind of suffering, but there are many ghosts who would rather choose such suffering than give up their attachments. ”
Tyr nodded, "I've been eye-opened, can you tell me how long it will be before I get out of here?"
"Come on, I'm looking for the corpse I want. "Côte d'Ivoire didn't look around at all, as if it knew what he was looking for.
Tyr also felt that he was lucky, and he came with Côte d'Ivoire, if he broke into the City of the Dead alone and wanted to get his right hand back...... I don't know how many times I'll have to die. It's just that almost all the corpses here look exactly the same, can he really find the corpse he wants? And what's the use of finding it, it shouldn't be for food.
The Côte d'Ivoire took Tyre to turn left and right, and his head was dizzy, and he didn't know how many circles he had turned, nor how many roads he had walked, because the scenery around him was exactly the same, and there was no reference at all. It's an infinite labyrinth, and it's no wonder that Côte d'Ivoire says that even gods and demons can't leave if they get lost here.
"It's big, isn't it? As I said, it's infinite. It's absolutely impossible to get out on your legs, there's only one way to get out, and that's one of the countless holes, but it's almost impossible to find them. Of course, it's almost impossible for a first-time person to come here, unless someone who has been here before leads the way. Côte d'Ivoire suddenly stopped next to a corpse and explained to Tyre, who immediately understood that Côte d'Ivoire had found the body he had just mentioned.
"This corpse...... What's the use?"
Côte d'Ivoire took a knife from his bosom and carved it into the stomach of the corpse, which immediately retracted into a black hole in the desert, and then a staircase appeared in the black hole.
"The secret lies in the words carved on the stomachs of these corpses, and now almost all the people who know this kind of writing are dead, and only a few people know that one of these strange words is me, and of course besides me is Odin, Zeus, and God. It only takes one gold coin to pass through the Endless Sea, but you must know the words to get through the desert. Each corpse was inscribed with the following words, which were almost identical, with a dark history written on it, but it was all wrong.
The history recorded on the corpse I just found is correct, but it does not write the time when that history took place, and the road to the forest can be opened by carving the time with a knife, and of course it must be written in the same words. There are too few people who meet these conditions, and even if you understand these words and don't understand that history, it is impossible to pass through this labyrinth, so follow me. ”
The Côte d'Ivoire pulled the rope and led Tyre into the cave, of course he did not know the words, nor did he know what the dark history of the Ivory Coast was talking about, and of course it was impossible to find the body. Even Côte d'Ivoire needs this to get through this labyrinth, and it is even more impossible to regain his right hand on his own.
It was only after entering the cave that Tyr discovered the cave's strange design, with the stairs almost vertically descending. But gravity changes for no reason, even if it goes down, every step is solid. It didn't take long for the direction of the stairs to change, and it was completely upside down, and Tyr felt like her hair was flowing up, but her feet were still very solid. It's like walking into a rotating hall of reincarnation.
The staircase was very long, and the two of them walked for a long time, and finally they finally came to the end, which was another cave. Without thinking about it, Côte d'Ivoire walked in with Tyre.
Leaving the cave, Tyr was stupid, wasn't this the desert just now? only this time there were no stakes and corpses. But here and there are those caves just now. The only difference is ...... This time, you can see the forest in front of you. All I could see was the desert or corpses.
"The forest is ahead, let's go. My mom told me to go and come back quickly. ”
Tyr replied stupidly, not knowing what to say. He is also the god of war, but he has never experienced such a strange thing. And it's not magic. It's exactly like the world is meant to be. No wonder Odin was reluctant to come here to retrieve his right hand. It's too much trouble to get into, and it's so difficult to get into this, and I want to leave...... Even Odin is going to be in trouble.
Now I finally understand why Odin is so afraid of Nidhogg. It turns out that he is more than just powerful. His insight, his understanding of all worlds, all knowledge, that wicked wisdom, had nodding himself several times. I shouldn't have agreed with any of the Devil's theories, but many of his theories are unassailable and don't violate his own standards. But nodding to the devil, it's a shame on God, because if it goes on like this...... I might be a god.
The Côte d'Ivoire pulled Tyr's rope and walked forward, and suddenly gasped: "Tyr, are you hungry? The moon in this world is very dark and doesn't move at all, so I don't feel how long I've been here, but we've been walking for almost a whole day, and the cold night of this world is coming, let's sit down and eat something first, and then hurry after we have recovered our strength." ”
Tyr nodded: "You don't say I didn't pay attention, in fact, my stomach is hungry too." ”
Côte d'Ivoire immediately reached out to summon a stream of flames, then sliced through the space with his fingers and plunged his hand straight in. The hand that reached into the gap in the space disappeared in an instant, and then he took out two bottles of wine and a few pieces of meat from it.
"Come on, let's have a barbecue and drink wine, that's what life is called. "Côte d'Ivoire is very hard-working, but he also has Amanda's excellent genetics and is a complete hedonist. As long as there is a way to make your life better and more comfortable, you will not give up, and you must pursue it.
Tyr saw that this piece of meat was still shining beautifully, this was definitely the meat of some kind of divine beast. Tyr took the piece of meat and sniffed it slightly, "This is the meat of the fire dragon? This kind of meat is very rare, I heard it is very delicious." ”
"Of course, I went to Muspelheim once, and I killed a lot of dragons there, and I deliberately memorized the location after gathering their corpses, because the dragons are so strong that they won't spoil even if they are put together for a short time, and the meat will be very fresh for at least a hundred years. But I guess I'll be able to eat them all in a few years. ”
The Ivory Coast and Tyre immediately threw the meat into the fire to roast it, and neither of them was mortal, so it did not fall after being thrown on the fire, but floated in mid-air, spinning as if weightless. When the meat of the fire dragon is roasted on the fire, the aroma of the meat bursts out instantly, and the juices also flow down, making it very appetizing just by looking at it.
Côte d'Ivoire opened two more bottles, one of which was handed to Tyre: "Come and have a glass, maybe you are my future stepfather." ”
"Uh~" Tyre really didn't know how to answer, he knew that he liked Amanda a lot, and Amanda was very good to himself. It's just that...... The identity gap between the two is too great. He is the god of war under Odin, and he is the Madonna of Nidhogg, barely together...... Will happiness really be achieved?
Tyr wished that this rope would be tied to him forever, so that he would never be able to escape Amanda's control, and he would like to be her slave for the rest of his life. If that's the case, he doesn't need to betray Odin, and he won't leave Amanda either. It's a pity...... This rope will be under the control of Odin's will, and Odin can escape at any time if he wants to escape.
"Drink bar......" Tyre picked up the bottle and touched it with the Ivorian before taking a few sips of himself.
Côte d'Ivoire just smiled wickedly and drank as well.
For Côte d'Ivoire, this is definitely a good thing. Because Tyr has begun to waver, his will is not as firm as when they first met, he does like Amanda, and Amanda likes him, of course, he has no problem with being a son. In fact, all the conditions should be met, and now there is no way to get rid of Tyr's own position. (To be continued......)
