Chapter 356: Kotal
Godforsaken Lands, a night with a low lightning frequency.
In the easternmost part of the Forsaken Lands, in a surviving human city-state called Moon City, a Mass is taking place.
Crane succeeded in performing a miracle in front of the eyes of the inhabitants of Mooncity as an angel of the 'Fool', curing their aberrations with miraculous powers.
Unlike Silver City, which has black-faced grass to eat, the inhabitants of Moon City can only survive by picking mutated plant fruits and collecting monster flesh and blood. This causes them to accumulate toxins and madness, and after their physical condition declines, they either die quickly or gradually spiral out of control.
But the cost of accumulating toxins and madness from generation to generation is far more than the average age decline, and those whose physical condition is still normal will gradually appear to a certain extent, some have more than ten or twenty sarcomas, some have two eyes almost squeezed together, and some have no nose directly, and that position is a black hole.
In the same way, precipitated toxins and madness can also be passed on to future generations, leading to the appearance of deformities.
Their lives will be shorter, and they will be more likely to get out of control and mutate.
And in Moon City, almost all of the newly-born children are deformed!
This also means that it may not take two or three generations, and the residents of Moon City may get out of control before they have grown up and given birth to a new generation.
In that way, even if there were no external blows, Moon City would quickly collapse, leaving only stone buildings, wall paintings, and other traces of their existence.
And in this case, Crane's appearance is undoubtedly a savior sent by the gods to save them!
Because he not only healed and purified the aberrations of the residents of Moon City, but also promised them that they could leave this dark God's forsaken land and return to the life of normal people!
Under the power of the 'miracle', this ancient city-state became a believer of the 'fool' without resistance, and the process went even more smoothly than the silver city.
At the end of the Mass, Nim, the High Priest of Moon City, walked up to the position near Klein and respectfully asked:
"Your Highness Gelman, what is the complete name of the Great Lord?"
Klein looked around, stiffened, and said solemnly:
"Fools who don't belong to this era......"
The residents of Yuecheng listened excitedly, and at the same time clasped their hands, buried their heads, and shouted:
"Praise the 'fools'!"
——
After finishing the Great Mass, Crane left Moon City and headed east, to an area where the sky and the earth were shrouded in gray mist. The gray mist acts as an invisible barrier, not only blocking the view, but also making it impossible for any living creature to pass through.
Klein stared at the silent gray mist, and did not make a movement for tens of seconds, as if he had become a statue on the spot.
Before coming here, he originally thought that the eastern continent was Europe and the western continent was Asia.
But after I came, I realized that this perception was wrong.
Because after this period of exploration, Klein has found that the 'Eastern Continent' is much larger than he imagined, and if you compare it with the world map projection he took out of the historical pores, you will find that the Eastern Continent not only refers to Europe, but also includes most of Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia.
As for the areas isolated by this gray fog, there are only East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
In addition, the legendary Newnes civilization located in the Misty Sea corresponds to Australia. It's just that I don't know what happened, this civilization sank to the bottom of the sea, along with the entire continent......
Crane retracted his thoughts, his gaze returning to the gray mist.
He had tried all sorts of things, but he couldn't open a passage through the gray mist. Although the recitation of the name of 'Tianzun' caused a large ripple in this gray mist, it was never able to truly outline the real 'door'.
Klein was a little disappointed, but not surprised.
After all, the reason why 'Moon City' moved here to guard this gray mist was to accept the orders of the ancient sun god. If even the ancient sun god in his heyday couldn't help this gray mist, then how could he, who only had Sequence 2, be an exception?
Maybe he can try here again when he becomes a true god, but now he has more important things to do.
Klein looked not far away at the pit, which was once a 'hill' and why he was here.
He didn't know in advance that there was such an area, but to track down the dark wolf Kotal.
As an angel of the 'soothsayer' path, Klein was able to realize better than anyone how powerful it was to preserve his life. And if he wants to pinpoint the location of the Eomsy Demon Wolf in the Godforsaken Lands, I must dig deep into the Edark Demon Wolf and look for traces of his past to grasp his specific situation.
And through all kinds of traces, he has found the three places where the dark demon wolf used to hide, but the harvest is not too big.
The reason is simple, Amon predicted Klein's actions and had destroyed all the clues and traces in his favor in advance.
The only thing that can help Klein is here in Moontown.
Luckily, this is also the most important clue.
On June 28, 1349, Zhou Mingrui crossed into Klein Moretti.
And at the same time, the gray and white mist in front of him that seemed to be eternal 'spit out' a curtain, and was finally obtained by the dark demon wolf.
In the process of tracking along the way, Klein also felt more and more difficult to deal with the dark demon wolf.
Not because of how strong He is, but because He is a good runner!
After all, it is not for nothing that the Black Demon Wolf can survive in the Godforsaken Land for so many years, and even Amon cannot successfully capture it.
But for Klein, it's not an unsolvable deadlock –
Because no matter how cautious the dark demon wolf's personality is, one thing is certain.
That is, the dark demon wolf who got the 'curtain' will definitely start to promote to Sequence 1!
"In other words, no matter where the dark demon wolf is, he must be preparing for the ritual of the 'Secret Attendant' right now. It is inevitable that a large number of secret puppets will be collected to create a puppet city. In this way, His whereabouts will never be traced! ”
Crane took a deep breath, he now had two ways to lock down the location of the Ebony Demon Wolf.
One is divination and the other is prayer.
Klein has been chasing the past of the Ebony Demon Wolf, but in fact, he is also looking for the traces left by the Edark Demon Wolf for divination.
But the dark demon wolf has been hunted by Amon for many years, and the word prudence has been engraved into his bones. Before each transfer, he tries to eliminate everything around him that is connected to him.
And even if there was any remnant, it had been destroyed by Amun—the angel of time clearly did not want Klein to become a god before him.
But Crane's divination object is not the dark wolf, but the curtain he obtained.
Unlike the dark wolf, which left almost no traces, the curtain was gone, but the pit that had been 'infested' by the curtain remained intact. Therefore, Klein can use the infested soil in the pit to directly divinate the whereabouts of this item - it is impossible for the dark demon wolf to give up the 'curtain', so finding the 'curtain' is equivalent to finding the dark demon wolf!
Of course, the pros and cons of this approach are obvious.
The advantage is naturally that it can quickly lock down the current hiding place of the dark demon wolf.
The disadvantage is that this method will most likely disturb him, so that he will be alert and evade.
And once he is aware of it, with his suspicious character, he will not hesitate to abandon everything and move to other places.
As for prayer, that's the suggestion given to Klein by the 'Hermit' lady.
The Ebony Demon Wolf will always turn off the automatic response to prayers, so as not to be contacted by the enemy with the help of feedback to lock down the position;
Under this premise, in the face of the sudden appearance of strange prayers, there is no doubt that they will rely on the corresponding points of light to observe who is on the other side, grasp more information, and prepare for what may happen in the future;
But there are also pros and cons to doing so.
The advantage is that this is less exciting than divination, and the dark demon wolf may not be the first to transfer.
The downside is that the Dark Demon Wolf will surely realize that this is a trap.
An angel with a 'source fort' prays to himself that even a fool can realize that the other party is coveting him.
For the Ebony Demon Wolf, the best option is, of course, to directly snuff out the point of prayer.
As long as He doesn't respond, doesn't pay attention, Klein prays no matter how much he prays—and Crane prays to Amon as he did.
But Klein didn't believe that Kotal, the dark wolf, really didn't have any idea about 'Fort Source'!
When Crane prayed to the Ebony Demon Wolf, the other party held the absolute initiative. This kind of initiative will undoubtedly give people the 'illusion' that the advantage is mine.
And as long as the dark demon wolf has this illusion, then he will not transfer in the first place, which also gives Klein a chance.
"'Divination' is that I have the initiative, but the dark demon wolf will definitely be scared away."
"'Pray' is that the other side has the initiative, but the likelihood of failure is also high......"
Klein thought about it for a while, and immediately finalized the plan - pray first, then divination!
——
Deep in the rolling mountains, inside an ancient castle.
Giants, elves, humans, and vampires serve as gardeners, cooks, valets, maids, and guards, each with different expressions, and when they meet each other, they will whisper a few words, which seems to be very lively and spiritual.
Deep in the castle, in a hall that could only be illuminated by lightning outside the window, a huge figure lay silently in the darkness.
It resembled a hill, covered with dark short hairs, its dark pupils taking up at least three-quarters of its eyes, a pinch of gray hair on its forehead, and its head resembling a magnified, twisted wolf.
This is the 'God of Wishes', Kotal, the Dark Wolf!
Suddenly, this demon wolf, which was more exaggerated than an ordinary giant, raised its head, moved its eyes slightly, and tilted its head slightly, as if listening to something.
Someone is praying to Him!
Without the slightest hesitation, Kotal's body quickly hid into the historical pores, and at the same time made the summoned historical projection make a wish and transfer it to a mountain peak far away from his own body.
After making the corresponding preparations, he relaxed a little and looked at the figure of himself praying to himself—
It was a young man in a strange hat and strange clothes, and his body was covered in a gray mist, and in the fog there were things that could not be seen clearly.
Fort Source? Kotal had heard something from Fregra, the king of the demon wolves, and had a certain guess in an instant.
On this premise, He immediately guessed the young man's purpose—
It's a bait!
The other party wants to use the 'Source Fort' to attract him and make him take the initiative to attack, so as to determine his position in reverse!
But how could the dark demon wolf, who is suspicious by nature, be fooled?
The Source Fort did make his heart move, but the reason why he has survived until now is because he can restrain his desires very well!
The Dark Demon Wolf quickly made a decision, and immediately wanted to extinguish the point of prayer.
However, at this time, a mutation suddenly occurred!
From the gray mist, raging flames surged out like wild beasts.
The young man's figure was quickly enveloped in flames, and he curled up on the ground in pain.
The dark demon wolf's heart was shocked, he could feel the terrifying power contained in the flames, but he could not understand the sudden change.
He didn't even plan to do it, but who attacked the young man? Anyone else coveting Fort Source?
A large number of chaotic thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and one of them stood out—
That is, he may be able to take advantage of this opportunity to take the Source Fort!
"No, let's take a look!"
The vigilant and suspicious personality made the dark demon wolf quickly calm down and temporarily dispel the greed in his heart.
But he still inevitably changed his tactics - it was not advisable to risk his life, but he could have observed more, at least to know who had attacked him.
After all, since the other party will take action to capture the Source Fort, then he may also be within the scope of the other party's goal.
It always hurts to be observant.
With this in mind, the Dark Demon Wolf watched more closely, trying to see the nature of the flames, and also to see how the young man would react to the sudden attack.
To his disappointment, he didn't seem to have any reaction.
He just let his historical projection be consumed in flames and did nothing.
But that's right, after all, it's just a historical projection, and it doesn't matter if you die.
Only, what exactly is that flame?
Such questions plagued the Dark Demon Wolf deeply, and in his thousands of years of life, he had never seen such a strange attack. The flame seemed to resemble the ancient sun god of the past, but he could realize that the two had very different natures.
Just as he was thinking about it, the dark demon wolf suddenly noticed one thing, that is, the flames seemed to become more and more turbulent!
The light of the fire became brighter and the area covered became larger.
It was as if the flame was burning right before Him......
The dark demon wolf frowned and blinked subconsciously.
And when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of disbelief. For even if He closes His eyes, the flame is still reflected in His 'vision'!
It was as if the flame no longer existed in the point of prayer light, but in His body!
The dark wolf couldn't help but shrink his pupils as he suddenly realized something that terrified him—
He was polluted!
