Chapter 1098 Merlin
Banli is really an honest person and never deceived him.
When he told how he passed the Thunder Ring Mountain, he really became the VIP of the entire Snowy City, and even all the mysteries and the city owner of the Snowy City came to say hello to him, and he held a meeting in the evening. Welcome party.
The welcome party was held in the square in the center of the city. It was a huge open space. There was only a deep pit made of stones in the center. It was like a cistern, but if it was used to store water, it might leak. That night, a raging flame was ignited in the deep pit made of stones. All the nobles in the city danced hand in hand on the square. The dance was simple and interesting, with a clear rhythm, a bit like the dance of the Dai people in the real world.
The aristocratic ladies are not careful, wandering around in the flame-burning square, this is probably the only time they can play freely with the commoners. Especially in the place far from the fire pit, where the fire does not shine, it is pitch black, which is very suitable for the young men and women who have known each other at the dance to talk further.
Of course, middle-aged men and women are not impossible.
Most of the mysteries were sitting in the east of the fire pit, neither far nor near, silently watching the dance, showing a character of being withdrawn and not good at dealing with people.
It is estimated that no one dared to invite them.
During this period, there were several beautiful noble women who saw his youthful appearance and respected his strength. They were probably also instructed by the elders in the family to dare to invite him, but they were all rejected by him.
In all fairness, the beauties in these people are really pretty if proportions are ignored! And perhaps because of martial arts and natural physique, all the beauties in this race are of good-looking types, with slender waists and long legs, and at the same time, they can take into account the high buttocks and plump upper circumference, giving people a sense of regular exercise and good health. It's a good feeling, it's really not common to see this style outside.
But this aspect of proportion... really can't be ignored!
Their height is about 2.7 meters, and the slightly taller ones are even about the same height as Banli. At 2.8 meters, Anyang is one meter shorter than them, and the other proportions are also reduced accordingly, so he can't imagine if...
Either way!
Anyang sat upright, with a calm demeanor, showing the loneliness and calmness unique to mysteries, maintaining his posture.
After the party, he returned to the headquarters of the Xukeco Mysteries Mutual Aid Association, and had a nightly talk with a group of mysteries. Even the City Lord of Snowy City was not qualified to participate in this meeting.
Anyang learned a lot in the process.
Snowy City is already the far west of the place of origin, and going further is the border of this continent. From this point of view, the place of origin does not seem to be as big as Lasea, but Anyang has always moved forward in a straight line. , it does not rule out that the place of origin is a long strip and he happened to walk a very short line.
Continue westward across the land of origin, and there are two continents similar to Lasea, but since the mysterious civilization began to decline, it is rare to see mysterious people from those two continents or mysterious people who go to those two continents. mainland.
This country is also the only country in this race. They call themselves human and call other normal people dwarfs, and they have probably never seen the dwarfs in the eyes of normal people. So if you stand from Anyang's point of view, you should call these people giants or cocoa people.
It is said that in ancient times, the Xu Keke people themselves did not have the mysterious talent. At that time, the average height of the Xu Keke people was about eight meters. Because of their admiration for the powerful power of the mysterious people, they asked the mysterious people among the human beings to help them...
So there is a combination of ordinary humans and Xu Keke people. It is estimated that some kind of mysterious biological method is used. Otherwise, Anyang can't imagine how wonderful such a picture is. Later, the Xu Keke people continued to use this method, which led to their blood relationship with ordinary human beings getting closer and closer, and their height dropped again and again, and gradually formed the modern Xu Keke people who can walk on the mysterious road, which is what Anyang sees now to them.
However, due to congenital defects, their mysterious path has not been smooth, which makes them very eager to intermarry with ordinary humans, preferably a mysterious person, because the mysterious person will leave his talent in the blood.
But since a group of Thunder Lords settled in Huanshan a thousand years ago, they have hardly seen ordinary humans, and human mysteries are rarely seen. In addition, there are fewer and fewer individuals with mysterious talents in the newborn babies of this clan, which makes all the cocoa people very worried, for fear that one day they will no longer have descendants with mysterious talents. In that case, facing the threat of mysterious creatures around them, The cocoa will be exterminated!
When Anyang heard this, he really shuddered.
A fifth-order scholar who can walk across the land of origin alone, what does it mean to these cocoa people who are worried about genocide...
Still, he heard useful information.
About a hundred years ago, a human came across the sea from the extreme west, in the opposite direction of Anyang, and settled in the west of the country of Xucoco. At that time, he was only a second-order scholar, but in just over a hundred years, he has become the most powerful mystic in the cocoa country, and all the mystics who are loyal to him will quickly become powerful. , even ordinary knights can have great power.
He has threatened the rule of King Sykoko, but no one dares to challenge him, because now he is like a god that people dare not look directly at.
"What's his name?" Anyang asked.
"Merlin, my lord, his name is Merlin, we don't know what his surname is." Banli, who first met him, said.
"Merlin..." The name is interesting.
"My lord, have you heard of this name?"
"When I was very young, in the biography, when I was still studying in the academy, I also met a person named Merlin, but it was only the same name!" Anyang said.
"Ah?" Banli was surprised. "That may be him. He is very famous, and my children are reading his biography now."
"..."
After a pause, Anyang asked again, "How powerful is the most powerful mystic in the Coco country?"
"Fifty years ago, I was just promoted to a fourth-order academic." Banli said with some shame, "Our talent has never been high. In this regard, we not only have a low starting point, but also need to spend a lot more energy than others to achieve the same achievements. This lord is already the most powerful mystic that has appeared among us in millennia."
"That's it!" Anyang frowned.
The place of origin really deserves to be the place of origin. A race with very low talent can actually appear a fourth-order scholar. You must know that the place of origin has never heard of a fourth-order scholar being born for so many years!
Anyang asked many more questions. When the conversation was about to end, the mystics of the Cocoa Mysteries Mutual Aid Association pushed and shoved me, and finally squeezed out the benefits. This gentle and gentle middle-aged man acted very awkward. .
"That, my lord, please forgive me for taking the liberty, you have heard that before, the mysterious talent in our racial lineage is already very weak, if we don't take effective measures, after many years, we may exterminate our clan... So I think Ask your lord if there is some way you can help us, and of course, in return for you, we'd be willing to give you anything that matches what you're doing!"
"If...if you can't come up with it, then no matter what you fancy in the entire Syracuse country, we will definitely give it to you, and we are willing to become your vassals for a period of time in the future, and the entire race will act for your will! "
When he said this, his face flushed red. Obviously, he also knew that a fifth-order scholar in front of them would have a hard time coming up with items that impress him. For a fifth-order scholar who is close to God, the so-called vassal... He can easily turn many powerful human kingdoms into his private property, and even some extremely powerful mystic organizations will express to him awe.
These conditions are too unconvincing, and at the same time they seem very insincere and a bit cheeky...
Anyang pondered for a while and said, "I'm not good at mystical biology, I'm good at techniques, space science, analysis and the like. But this is not too difficult, if it is true that your bloodlines are gradually returning to your ancestors. The reason, I think I can help you in many ways."
"That's great!" Banli said happily, suddenly paused again, his expression stagnant, "You mean, it's not that the dwarf blood in our blood is gradually disappearing, the blood of ancient humans is reviving, but other reason?"
"Yes." Anyang nodded, "Actually, I haven't studied this in depth, but if the bloodlines gradually returned to the ancestors, you should be taller than you are now, but you still maintain this size. Also, maybe because of you It has been a long time since I have communicated closely with the outside world, and you don’t know that this phenomenon is also happening outside!”
"What... what phenomenon?" Banli said stunned, he already knew the answer, but he couldn't believe it.
"Sir, you...you mean that the same situation is happening to the dwarfs in the east, but they are the founders of mysticism, and they are born with the talent to embark on the path of mystery, how is it possible... …”
"Maybe it's a change in the world, maybe it's because there have been few high-level mysteries combined with ordinary mortals in the past few thousand years, and the mysterious blood has not been passed down, maybe it's because human intermarriage has become more and more serious in recent years. People in the mainland are facing this dilemma." Anyang said calmly, "The most intuitive manifestation is that the new generation recruited by the mysterious organization is not as good as the previous generation, the talent is getting worse and worse, and after the fall of high-level academics, there are fewer and fewer successors. , it seems that the entire mysterious civilization is going downhill."
"How is this possible, mysterious civilization... How powerful was the original mysterious civilization, how could this be..."
"Yeah, how powerful was the mysterious civilization at the beginning, doesn't this just show that the mysterious civilization has been going downhill since its peak?" Anyang said, and added, "This is a fact, Mr. Banli."
