Looking at the amber that suddenly appeared, Gao Wen was in a daze for a moment. This was not only because he hadn't sensed the presence of the other party's aura at all, but also because of the storm-like confusion of perception and the information storm in his head before. He is still a little groggy now, and he roughly remembers what he saw and heard at Lady Ye, the memory fragments he regained, and the meeting with Gawain Cecil, but other than that, he always feels that He seemed to have forgotten something, and this disobedience made him frown.

So he stood on the spot and sorted out his state. After he calmed down a little, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes fell on Amber: "Where did you go before? I haven't seen you and you since I arrived in the city of a thousand towers." Mordir... by the way, where is Mordir?"

"Modill and I came out a long time ago. He is resting in the camp at this time. I came here to check the situation when I sensed your presence." Amber grinned heartlessly and raised her head. Pointing to the direction of the camp, "We've been waiting here for you for three days—during this time, we've been wandering around Lady Ye's divine kingdom."

Gao Wen frowned: "Are you in Lady Ye's divine kingdom?"

"Yes, near the seat of God, He showed us many incredible things, such as ancient observation records, the equipment of the navigator, and so on. I'll chat with you later," Amber said with a smile, "Let's not talk about it for now. What about you? What did you see? What did Ms. Ye tell you? What are we going to do next?"

Gao Wen was stunned, some fragments appeared in his memory, and then he shook his head: "I have recovered some past memories, but it is too much to explain, let's talk about it when I have a chance."

"Oh, let's talk about it when we have a chance," Amber waved his hand, "If there is nothing else, we have to pack up and return to China as soon as possible. There are still many things waiting for you to deal with on the alliance side. Now it is the mother star barrier. Critical phase of the plan..."

Gawain collected himself, nodded lightly, and followed Hu Po who had already turned and walked towards the camp.

...

The chaotic and unknown sky covered the shadowy giant city. Layers upon layers of buildings and towers stretched continuously in the foggy streets and alleys. On the streets with a faint mist floating, dusty travelers were walking slowly. Come to a door.

The worn-out robe and hood covered the face of the traveler. Only the slightly hunched body and the dry and old skin on the hands showed that this uninvited visitor to the city was no longer young. He stopped in front of the door, Looking up and seeing the signboard of fine wine and table knives hanging above the gate, he stretched out his hand to push the dark wooden door.

With a "squeak", the door opened in response. Behind the dark wooden door was an open tavern. The long bar was facing the direction of the door. A man with long silver hair and disturbingly pale skin was The girl who lowered her head to wipe the wine glass raised her head from behind the bar counter. Her eyes were as pale as her complexion, and her delicate but inhuman face was like an unpainted plaster sculpture. She stared at the traveler at the door. Nodding slightly, her slightly indifferent attitude made her look completely unqualified as a bartender.

And near the bar, there are several sets of tables and chairs, where the guests are drinking and chatting, the figures of each one seem hazy and unreal, their roughly human-shaped bodies are outlined by the undulating black mist, and the humming conversation between them is indistinct Unclear, as if a group of invisible clouds are communicating secrets that only madmen can know. . .

And among these shapeless drinkers, there are two or three special customers. These two or three people have the same silver-white hair as the girl behind the bar, and skin that is so pale that it is almost plaster—those shapeless like clouds The drinkers didn't respond to the travelers who appeared at the door, only the few people with silver-white hair and pale skin looked up and nodded to the travelers.

The traveler's hood also rose and fell slightly, and then he ignored the weird "guests" like clouds,

Pass through the aisle between several tables, and come straight to the long bar.

The silver-haired girl behind the bar put down her work, picked up a wiped wine glass, turned around and poured a glass of fine wine with off-white foam and put it in front of the traveler: "You are so late - this glass of wine has been waiting for you for a long time gone."

The traveler looked at the wine glass in front of him with some hesitation, and took it up after a few seconds, an old voice sounded from under the hood: "Sorry, miss, my memory is not very good, I... don't remember myself There is an appointment, I just feel that I want to come to such a place, so I follow the feeling. Did I miss something?"

"You don't remember?" The silver-haired girl raised her eyebrows in surprise, but soon smiled, which also diluted her initial cold impression, "Ah, it's normal, after a long journey , people always forget something... It seems that you have traveled a long, long way?"

"Yes, I have walked a long, long way. I can't remember how long I have been walking," the traveler laughed and raised his glass. "The scenery here is incredible, especially this city. This city... seems to have no boundaries, and I even feel that I can explore it for a lifetime-ah, thank you for the wine, miss, this wine tastes really good."

"This shop is a specialty product, and the technology of brewing wine was passed down from my great-grandfather," the silver-haired girl said with a smile, then raised her head slightly, pointing to a certain direction in the bar, "Also, if you plan to finish your work in this city If you are on a journey, maybe you can talk to that person, that guest is looking for a partner on the journey, and she has been wandering here for a long time."

The old traveler raised his head, only to notice that there was another place in the corner of the bar, and a short figure who was also covered in a black cloak was sitting quietly in front of the window, and there was a strange haze outside the window Fog, the scenery on the street is blurred in the fog, and the short figure seems to blend with the surrounding shadows, maintaining an extremely thin sense of existence in this bar with many customers—if it is not for the hostess Mind you, he didn't even notice someone sitting there.

Without much hesitation, the old traveler picked up his glass of wine and walked towards the strange corner. He sat down in front of the short figure, whose hood moved slightly, and his attention seemed to fall on On the uninvited guest—the shadow of the hood still casts its face, but the traveler can feel the gaze from the other side.

"I heard that you are looking for a partner on the road," the old traveler said proactively, "I am an adventurer, and I have just arrived in this city not long ago, and I am also looking for someone to go on the road together... Do you have any goals? "

"I'm waiting for someone, or maybe I'm looking for someone," the short figure said, "I don't remember clearly, I only know that there is a very important person, and I got separated from him, and I have to get back to him as soon as possible." He got it back."

"Oh, that sounds important," the old traveler nodded. "Is there any characteristic of your friend? Maybe I have seen him once-don't look at me, I have traveled a lot place, met a lot of people.”

"He..." The short figure thought for a while, and slowly answered, "I just remember that he is very tall, and when he walks in front, he can almost block the sun like a wall, and when he walks in the summer, he is in his shadow. It would be cool in here, and he would scare people, saying he was going to slap people against the wall, but in fact he never used such violence, and..."

The short figure stopped, as if she was trying to sort out her vague memories. After a few seconds, she seemed to remember something, and her tone rose slightly: "Oh, I remember, he slept in a coffin..."

The old traveler was still on the chair, as if he couldn't keep up with the train of thought of the person in front of him, and it took a few seconds for his voice to come from under the hood: "It sounds like your friend... has wonderful hobbies. "

Immediately afterwards, he paused for two seconds, and then asked: "Then where are you going to find your friend? How are you going to find him?"

The short figure pondered for a moment, then stretched out his hand to under the table, and took out a shovel from under the table two or three times.

"I have to dig him out again."

The short figure said, with a hint of excitement and determination in his tone, and in the shadow cast by the hood, the traveler Mordir clearly saw a pair of amber eyes glowing slightly.

...

The gray-white sky covers the boundless desert, and the majestic throne stands in the center of the sand sea. The master of light and shadow sits on his throne like a mountain, overlooking his kingdom from the depths of the clouds, and wherever those eyes look, It is the black giant city on the edge of the boundless sand sea—the scale of that giant city has now expanded to almost surround the entire kingdom of God, but it is still just a seemingly thin silhouette, and above that silhouette, you can see Streamers of light hang down from the sky, those aurora-like streamers bring vivid and astonishing colors to this monotonous world, and they look magnificent.

In this Kingdom of Shadow God, only the ruler of this country has the ability to create "color", but there are always exceptions in everything - direct data manipulation from the anchor point generator can also inject "color" here.

"The travelers are all on their way." After staring for a long time, the majestic figure on the throne finally broke the silence, "The anchor point injection process has also begun."

"...Is it really necessary to be cautious to this extent? And you have to take extra risks for it," the voice of the great adventurer Wilde came from before the throne, "The anchor point generator is your foundation, and you Now allow an outsider to come close to this foundation, and his high clearance could threaten your existence if he wants to, and finds out how to do it."

Speaking of this, Wilder paused, and added: "Actually, I think your worry has only a very small probability of happening... Although the possibility of a great king's 'divine transformation' does exist, you also As I said, the measures he implemented are all effective, as long as there is no trouble, the process of civilization from ignorance to enlightenment in this season can be passed smoothly."

"I can't bet on this probability," a majestic voice came from the sky, "because the price is not only the safety of the old rice dumpling himself, but also not only the future of this planet—the new gods and civilizations produced in the process of adulthood The primitive gods produced in the infancy stage are a completely different concept, once the bet is lost... its price may even turn into a disaster that continues to spread in the star space."

"A disaster that keeps spreading in the starry sky?" Wilder's voice was a little taken aback.

Ms. Ye fell silent, as if she was considering whether she should tell the great adventurer in front of her, but soon she seemed to have figured something out, and sighed softly: "Do you think the gods are scary?"

"...From the perspective of a mortal, it is of course terrifying," Wilde replied honestly, "It is so powerful that it is invincible, it will destroy the world after becoming crazy, and it will continue to become stronger with the development of civilization, and when the divine disaster breaks out , is often so powerful that it can instantly destroy an entire civilization—this is almost the greatest disaster that can be described in all epic stories."

"Yeah, it's scary, but such powerful and terrifying gods... are just creatures conceived on a planet," Ms. Ye shook her head lightly, "even if there are such powerful and terrifying gods... Power is also trapped in gravity, and all power is confined between the mountains, rivers, and atmosphere of the planet-such terrible gods, but they don't understand the mysteries of the stars, they don't understand the movement of stars and planets, and they don't understand space. I don’t know what super-light travel and space-time warp field are, the reason is that he was born in the middle of an information cage bounded by the ‘parent star’, and all his powers are destined to not be able to jump out of this frame.”

Listening to Ms. Ye's words, Wilder seemed to understand something: "You mean... a god born outside this cage..."

"Gods are the projection of the thoughts of all living beings, Mr. Great Adventurer, have you noticed? In this rule, there has never been a limitation that gods can only be born within the scope of the planet-it's just that the civilization that happens to be born with gods is usually in the In the primitive stage, they are all crawling on the surface of the earth," Ms. Ye said in a low voice, "Have you ever thought that if a civilization has broken free from the shackles of planets and has developed to the point where it can travel in the sea of ​​stars, it can even travel among hundreds of thousands of people? At the stage of building a colony on this planet, there is a god standing behind them... How powerful can this god be?"

Wilder was silent, the terrifying possibility making it difficult for him to say anything.

"The civilization after entering the starry sky is almost doomed to have enough understanding of the ideological trend, so it is difficult to give birth to gods, but now Loren...is at a dangerous critical point," Ms. Ye said in a low voice, "It is still It has not fully grown up, so it still has the chance to give birth to new gods, and it will soon enter the starry sky, so the gods it bred will use the starry sky as its cradle, and have unprecedented power and almost infinite upper limit, and because of the birth Due to the particularity of the process, it is very likely that he will be crazy as soon as he takes shape."

Speaking of this, Ms. Ye paused, and sighed after a while: "Under the pressure of the situation, the Loren civilization has accelerated all the way to where it is today, and now it is about to cross the key threshold to the starry sky. Daoism, the "divine calamity" of the primitive gods is no longer its threat, and fields such as nature, fertility, commerce, contracts, etc. will become safe and harmless ordinary subjects, but compared with the brilliant achievements on the surface, this civilization's The basic part is far from complete transformation, new reverence and gratitude are brewing in the hearts of all beings, and Gao Wen... the accelerator of civilization is at this core.

"'The God who leads all beings to the starry sky'...His hazy figure is now standing on the farthest border of the deep sea."

"Is this a warning left by the sailor?" Wilder finally broke the silence.

"This is the purgatory they saw with their own eyes during the expedition," Ms. Ye said, "and the price paid by the fleet is astonishing."
