Chapter 31: Keep Breathing for Eternal Life
Nagi looked at the man in gold armor in front of him in confusion, rumors about Gilgamesh can be traced back to the ancient oral epic of the Diglas River Valley, a time when even the Cult of Creation had not yet been established, and humanity was still living under the threat of demonic beasts.
"'The chosen child of the prophet became the king of all, and the king had supreme divine power, and under the king's rule, the storms were no longer manic, the rivers were no longer overflowing, and the monsters no longer dared to show their claws. Well, if you think about it, there is such a legend. ”
Nagi rubbed his chin and thought back to the setting of the Ancient King Gilgamesh that he had read in the magic painting books, and the legend about the treasure he left behind not only attracted countless adventurers to find, but also a plot that the magic painting and the novel's author talked about.
"Oh, it seems that the name of this king, you still know it, girl~"
Holding his arms, Sad Wind's face showed a very useful and smug expression, and he still recognized the legends about him in later generations.
"We know that's right, but so what? It's just a tragic character who lives forever in the backstory, and compared to the oldest king of bullshit, it's really the cute girls who love the most. ”
Nagi took out the spring figure he just bought today and rubbed it on his face affectionately, looking like a fool and said to the smug sadness. After all, what is the treasure of the king is just to give the protagonist a reason not to stay at home and live a corrupt life with the maid during the day and at night and go on an adventure, in fact, this treasure is the same as Gilgamesh or the rich man next door, Wang Wu, the reason why he wants to move out of the name of the most ancient king......
"It's just to find a reason for yourself to pretend to be forced! Sad wind, even if you're a pervert, but you have to read less magic paintings and novels in the middle and second directions!"
Nagi Cai doesn't believe that Sadness Wind is really Gilgamesh, and he is also the oldest king of mankind, right, every king of the Pan Continent has to pretend to be a festival for this old-timer when he ascends the throne! What kind of mental journey does such a king have to go through before he can become a humanoid bulldozer like Sadness Wind?
"Hahaha, hahahahahahaha!"
Hearing Nagi's words, Sadwind's face sank at first, and then he suddenly picked up his stomach and laughed selflessly.
"Laugh, laugh, laugh, what's the soul!"
Generally speaking, if the nature of the second middle school is exposed, shouldn't these middle two patients be annoyed and jump to their feet to refute, saying something like 'I am the owner of the true eye of the evil king, whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway'?
"'There's something wrong with this guy's brain, it's impossible for a person to live for thousands of years, and even if he lives for thousands of years, he can't be mixed up like a lonely person like him!' ”
Holding his stomach and swallowing his laughter back into his stomach, Sad Wind raised his head and stared at Nagi with deep eyes, but there were two strings of tears on the cracked corners of his mouth that were smiling.
"If this king meets this kind of person, he will definitely only think that he is a madman, but the so-called 'genius and madman are only a thin line', is the crazy words in your eyes necessarily false?"
"It makes sense, but it doesn't make sense. ”
Nagi shook his head a little speechlessly, even if there is only a thin line, a madman is a madman, as long as it is out of most people's cognition, no matter how correct he says, he can only be a madman.
"If you look at it with common sense, even if you use some spells that are forbidden by the church, you can only extend your lifespan to about a thousand years at most, and as a result of doing so, not only will the caster's reason be completely distorted, but after reaching the limit of a thousand years, the lifespan of the human soul will come to an end completely, and the result of coveting eternal life will only end up in a tragic end. ”
People's desire and attempt for immortality has always accompanied the history of the pan-continent, and there are countless kings and geniuses who have made great attempts for eternal life, but, as far as the results are concerned, the success rate is 0, even if there is a way to stop the aging of the body, but the human soul can only survive for a thousand years, a thousand years is the highest record, if you reach the limit, no matter how you refuse, people will usher in his end.
"Since you know it so well......"
It seems that Sad Wind is not a guy who is completely devoid of common sense, but even so, what is the reason why he insists that he is Gilgamesh?
"That's right, even an immortal species like Xiang Elf only has a life of three thousand years old, and even the dragons and vampires who claim to be immortal will be corrupted by time, and they will survive like dead corpses in the corners of the world. However, there is another way to immortalize one's soul and live forever in this world. ”
Sad Wind pulled out a finger to Nagibi and smiled slyly.
Theoretically, the reason why the longest human life record in the pan-continent only stays at the node of 1,000 years is because of the limitations of the rules of this world, and the super-sized creatures like the academy leader are not the results that the creator god originally wanted to create, so in order to limit the excessive growth of human beings and prevent the emergence of those who surpass the rules, in addition to the emergency braking device Kabbalah Tree of Life used when the world is destroyed, the world also has its own immune system.
The natural inhibition Gaia and the human inhibition Alay, the former is responsible for protecting the world from destruction, and the latter is responsible for guarding the normal development of humans and other intelligent races. When a life exceeds its should-life span, Alayas will take your soul back and punish it with a small punishment to warn humanity against any attempt to be superior to others.
"Do you ......?"
Seeing the delicate expression on Sad Wind's face, Nagi, who touched his chin and pondered, suddenly thought of a possibility, if he did this, it seemed that it was indeed possible to get eternal life.
"That's right, I underestimated you before, Nagi, indeed, if you look at it from the perspective of common sense, even after thousands of years, there is still no way to live forever, but that's just from the perspective of human beings, but what humans know is the truth? No, the smartest guy in the world is not a human being, but the real owner of the floating city that has now been brutally killed by the Soul Fade Academy Master and then occupied the magpie's nest!"
Sad Wind pointed her hand upward, and in addition to the stars, there was a shining thing standing there, Nagi covered her mouth in surprise, and silently pronounced the name.
"Blue Dragon King, huh?"
"That's right, it's the guardian dragon that represents knowledge and magic, the ancestor of the blue dragon, our great blue dragon king!"
With a tone of nostalgia and longing, Beifeng loudly introduced what the name represented, however, now this greatness and glory of qiē have become the stepping stone for the academy master to reach the strongest in the continent.
"Annie......"
Nagi tugged at her lips and whispered another name weakly.
In fact, it's just a lazy nerd in essence, and in various ways, it's not as effective as the hyperactive Black Dragon King Victoria.
