Invincible Chapter 177
Before Kane went to bed, he was mentally prepared to hear the bad news.
After all, there are demon spirits haunting the mansion, so it's normal for someone to die.
However, when I woke up the next day, I found that everything seemed to be fine.
As for himself, it got worse and worse. When he washed it, he combed it down and lost a lot of hair.
This is actually quite normal. With his comprehensive state in this time and space, the accuracy of the spell effect cannot be calculated just right. Although some margin was specially set aside at the beginning, it is still a bit lacking, and the skin is unusable. It will inevitably collapse within a week, and this is a sign of rapid deterioration.
Aging, sickness and death, when a person becomes a "living and long-seeing", these seem to be nothing. Emotional indifference, pretending to be tender, I can’t get it back, that kind of feeling is like when I grow up, I can no longer be like a child, just give a bunch of Lego blocks and play happily for a day.
Every stage of life seems to have a few themes.
If Kane has any regrets, the lack of vigorous love when he was young is probably one. When he realizes that this is actually a lack of life, he can no longer love so unscrupulously, and he feels brain-dead.
Then there are more regrets. After becoming a reincarnation, the ordinary days of the past have become a kind of loss, and I have not been able to savor the taste carefully.
But in this life, even the hard times of the reincarnated people in the previous life, I have a little regret when I think about it. Such a vast stage, such rich resources, and so many changeable choices, I didn't understand myself, so I left.
It has been lost, and it will always carry more or less last words, but at present, it feels full of various dissatisfaction and L. Kane estimates that when he returns to the multiverse one day, he will probably feel that this world is actually quite good, and even the villains are a bit cute, right?
"Barn, don't you want to eat?" Maria asked softly.
Kane shook his head, "I'll go for a walk in the southern garden, and you'll inform Miss Percival in a while, and tell them that I have information to share with them."
Maria, who helped him put on his coat, nodded yes.
Leaning on a dragon's back cane, Kane chose to go down the stairs instead of the elevator.
I met several maids along the way, all of them saluted respectfully, there was nothing wrong with their mental state, and they couldn't be connected with the weird scene of the soul coming out of their bodies last night.
Kane looked at the various furnishings and decorations that were moisturized due to diligent cleaning and maintenance,
Heart said: "The biggest abnormality here is probably that everything is normal."
The garden is in the south of the square. When passing by the central fountain, Kane took a few extra glances.
This large fountain is decorated with various sculptures, such as the edge of the pool in the shape of waves, fish spraying water from its mouth, and the sculpture group in the fountain pool depicts an epic war, sea god and sea monster.
Different from the usual theme of victory in sight, this sculpture group conveys the meaning that the war is very tragic and the outcome is still unknown.
The sculpture is at the level of a master. Not only are the characters three-dimensional and vivid, their expressions are natural and vivid, but even the choice of stone materials has been taken into consideration. It can be said to be a rare work handed down from generation to generation.
But Kane is actually a vulgar person, and he is also the kind of person whose own lack of artistic cultivation makes it difficult for others to discuss art. One word to describe: arrogant.
Subtext: I have seen many god-level magnificent phenomena in the multiverse, and I dare not say that I have artistic appreciation. You actually pretend to be artistic in Lao Tzu's face. Are you sure you know what beauty is and what art is?
It is conceivable what status a work of art in this world has in his eyes.
Without being disturbed by the artistic effect, the abnormality in the structure was quickly seen, and it was basically determined that there was a secret door leading to the underground.
This is different from using golden blood to deconstruct.
Simply understood, what the blood of gold achieves is energy tracing, and the essence of the earth veins is the path through which extraordinary power penetrates, and it is an energy vein, not a passage for people to walk.
Bypassing the fountain, Kane walked towards the garden, his mind full of calculations.
He really hates the style of knowing what the key point is, but he has been reluctant to take the initiative to grasp it.
He thinks it is a kind of brain damage, and it is a kind of narrow-minded and courageous behavior that dare not break the order and only dare to find loopholes in the established track.
But he will not be black and white, and act recklessly in order to appear daring to break and innovate.
The main problem now is that there are too many factors and logic is not logical. He cannot guarantee that the strange object under the fountain that may be a 'golden apple' is the core that can determine the trend of events if he holds it, at least he cannot guarantee that it is the only core.
Secondly, there are still people in the Carret family who are not present. Ryan's daughter, Iris (Iris), is a Latin name, meaning iris, the goddess of the rainbow.
Kane is a person who pays attention to details. He was surprised that the patriarch of the ancient pure-blood Carret family gave his daughter such an unconventional name. ..
Because in contemporary times, Latin is divided into two types, one is ancient Latin (dead language), and the other is Holy See Latin (mainly used in ceremonies).
Another detail, Fran had told him on the road, was that Pamela had taken care of Ryan's daughter after his wife died. This news is not the present tense, but the situation when Fran left the Marquis's mansion to go out to work hard.
The real situation now is that Alice lives in her grandmother's house, and Ryan's wife died in an accident. He feels that there may be a story in it.
Even if there is no story, he will wait for Ryan's daughter to arrive at Scarlet Mountain before doing anything.
Because if the golden apple is the key item that explodes at the touch of a touch, then with Ryan's daughter present, it is tantamount to passing the test close to the bottom line: nothing is found out about the key information, and the truth is still buried in the destruction, but with The causal relationship in 990 is closed, and if you can go back without getting lost, maybe you can get a golden apple.
Without realizing it, I entered the garden area.
Due to the unique environmental characteristics of Scarlet Villa, even though the outside world has entered the harsh winter, there are still colorful, blue, yellow and dark green here. Colonnades, sculptures, and large potted flowers constitute the scenery here. If Kane is not mistaken, those are very ancient Greek. The pillars of the style are really antiques, and some original objects were moved here to restore them.
To put it bluntly, doing something that consumes energy and money is not just pretending, but true love.
"Olympus ocean gods, what did the ancestors of the Carret family think?" Kane wandered in the beautiful environment of flowers and leaves, searching for relevant clues and speculating.
"Could it be that they also know the kingdom of the gods (Note 7)?"
When it comes to the kingdom of the gods, Kane will subconsciously tremble a little. After all, the people who are most prone to fear are those who have little knowledge of the truth. And he falls right into that category.
There is no lack of irony in that if there is a heaven of gods, then the existence of the old branch is good news, and of course the other way around.
What needs to be explained is that the ancient gods who sealed the old rulers (it is said that the old gods are more accurate) are not the gods that people are familiar with. Compared with the ancient gods, the Olympian gods, the gods of Egypt, etc. Yes, it's just a country level existence.
So, it's time for obscenity, let these "village tyrants" go to the old gods who are trampled by ancient gods, and the phoenix is not as good as the chicken, isn't it just a good time to have fun and fun?
The future where he died seems to have entered the age of the gods. He was considering whether this was a strategic mistake or a tactical mistake. If he wasn't so showy, would it be possible for the gods to get angry first?
Before he got deep into obsession, Dumbledore and the others arrived.
In fact, even if Maria doesn't contact, Dumbledore will take the initiative to come to Kane. I didn't see him at dinner last night, and I didn't see him at breakfast this morning (Kane: The force is high enough, eat in the room, and I put I fell asleep at breakfast time), they have information sharing and inquiries.
"Where's Richard?"
"Fran asked him to consult about legal matters related to the succession of titles in the secular direction."
Kane shook his head slightly: "Write a letter to the royal family, and the royal lawyers can respectfully handle the matter on their behalf. Young people still don't know how to use power, and don't know when to be strong."
The topic changed: "You two are fine."
As he said that, he flipped his right hand, and two balls of flames floated in his hand.
This is a common magic trick, but in this world, there are only a handful of wizards who can do this.
Dumbledore and Laura had seen it before, and calmly accepted the flames sinking into their heads.
Afterwards, the three of them walked quietly, and when they saw that they had almost digested the information, Kane asked, "What do you gain? Let gossip gossip."
"Uh..." Dumbledore and Laura looked at each other.
At first, I thought it was a bit of information, but compared with what Kane provided, it was really gossip, and the value was very low.
The three of them had passed through the garden at this time, and came to the southernmost viewing platform.
Overlooking the railing, you can see the outer entrance of the villa, and you can naturally have a panoramic view of the vast berry planting fields.
Today's weather is not good, with dark clouds, but this weather matches the characteristics of the villa, creating an open, majestic, desolate and gloomy beauty, with a special charm.
Against this background, Dumbledore and Laura also saw the oldness revealed in Kane's bones.
Kane's deep and indifferent eyes are very suitable for this old age. Laura even thinks that this is the real Kane Shafik, the conscious body in a state of diminished humanity and setting sail with divinity.
Pass four black rhombus crystals to Dumbledore.
"At the critical moment, use it to create a dark space and escape from this world. The price is that the body will be melted by black flames, and the sequelae of soul burning once a month in the future. It must be night."
Kane looked at the planting field. On the red road, two eye-catching carriages painted white were approaching.
"It should be Alice Carret. I've got everyone here. I will take control of the strange things under the fountain pool at sunset tonight. Once there is a risk of losing control, the dark crystal will become hot. "
"Also, pay attention to Richard. I don't know if you can see that Richard has the intention of sacrificing himself, but his mind was taken advantage of by the will of the gods."
"As for his mental illness, the divine damage is permanent. If he cannot accept the treatment of destroying the radio antenna (long-term use of inhibitory drugs), a decent death is also a good choice."
"It may be cruel to say this, but for Richard to see the grown-up Countess of Abingdon instead of his college-age daughter, it would be tantamount to burying the last of his emotional attachment."
Dumbledore couldn't help but said: "Is it necessary to solve the problem in such a way?"
Kane refused to give an inch: "Before you can absolutely control the situation, it is more appropriate to talk about how to solve the problem. I am afraid it is an arrogant and extravagant thing?"
After sharing the latest information, facing Dumbledore's still out-of-the-box proposal, Kane finally couldn't hold back his anger.
"How greedy! Your Excellency, White Wizard, if this is your ultimate wish to save, you should not choose 853, but go to 835 after you are fully prepared. 20 years of hard work can not only save the Carret family, but even It is possible to create a heaven on earth! We have a ball of time, and I don’t mind if you use it to create a Utopia-style parallel universe.”
Dumbledore said: "I still firmly believe that the destruction of Carret is not the only option."
"That's right. The problem is that we are unable to grasp the right scale. Your Excellency the White Wizard, please believe that I have enough IQ to pay a small price for long-term benefits. I can settle this account."
That's already sarcasm. Moreover, the title of Your Excellency the White Wizard is already full of alienation and even irony.
Dumbledore also became serious: "Well, Mr. Shafik, you do what you think is right, and I will be the last breakaway."
Kane said dumbfoundedly: "You are going to take people directly to 990."
"Yes, I am willing to try."
Kane looked at Lara Croft.
"I will find a way to bring my father back."
Kane sneered: "Do you know the difference between us? My resources are used to enhance the probability of success, and you get the resources to gamble even more. I am fed up with your way of thinking that the success rate is never higher than 50%. We The cooperation with me ended early, from this moment on, I will be ready to evacuate at any time, play as you like."
After speaking, Kane left without looking back.
Laura curled her lips: "It seems that I am really angry this time."
"Yes, this is considered a break."
"I don't understand why. In all fairness, Kane gave a lot and it paid off."
"Well, he is very good at doing things. This is just another repeated proof. I am no longer surprised." Dumbledore gave Laura all the dark crystals.
"This is what Kane worked hard to prepare for his teammates. His teammates were playing wild, and he was silently filling holes and trying to find a way. He is actually more holy than me."
Laura curled her lips again: "You know this, but you still choose to piss him off."
"No, I can't see his bottom line!"
"See now?"
"Not yet, there is the last hurdle. Many people say one thing and do another. Some say it well, do it badly, and some do the opposite. I suspect that Kane is the latter, so he will repeatedly Died."
Laura caught the key word: "over and over again?"
Dumbledore shrugged for his slip of the tongue, and he admitted: "I peeked into 27 futures, and Kane all ended in death. I need to find the reason, whether he is not strong enough, or he is too brave."…
