Chapter 5 Walking in the Dark

Backlund, East District.

Forsi, who had just returned from the world of ice and snow, was wrapped in thick clothes, looked at the charcoal-burning stove in front of her, as if she had fallen into that harsh environment again, couldn't help shaking a few times and said:

"George III is dead, the previous things will definitely come to an end, maybe we can move out of here, go to the North End, go to Hillston District.

"There's a house with a fireplace!"

Xio sat on the opposite chair, staring at the stove emitting warmth, and responded with a slightly confused expression:

"Wait another week or two.

"Frankly, I still can't believe that George III was killed like this ... I haven't had time to do anything."

The bounty hunter who has become a "judge" has obvious loss, confusion and bewilderment in his tone, as if he has lost all motivation in life.

Forsi briefly forgot the damage caused by the cold, and thought about it in relief:

"I think that Gehrman Sparrow did not do this, but those who used Sherman before. Only they are still investigating George III's secret plot. You can also be regarded as doing something for George III's death." A certain contribution is equal to the indirect completion of revenge.

"Uh...the monitoring and suppression against your family should be gone. You can try to start a new life. If you have the opportunity, you might even appeal for your father through formal channels."

Hearing the latter part of the words, Xio raised his head for a moment:

"Yes, the situation is getting more and more chaotic now, and I'm worried that they will be affected by the war.

"Forsi, tell me, Backlund is safer, or an ordinary small town not close to the border is safer?"

Fors thought seriously for a few seconds, then shook her head frankly:

"do not know."

Then she added:

"I'm going to ask Mr. World, he must have a more accurate grasp of the overall situation, do you remember? He warned us in advance that there will be situations around King George III, so try not to get close."

in addition,

Forsi also wanted to ask where the next stop of the "travel" was, so that she could make some preparations in advance.

"En!" Xio nodded intuitively.

Fors flipped through the newspaper on her lap, drank the rest of the coffee, and then slowly got up, entered the room inside, and prayed to Mister Fool in a low voice, asking him to pass on his questions to Geer the World Man Sparrow.

Land Abandoned by the Gods, near the "Giant King's Court".

Klein, who was no longer "parasitized" by the deep level, followed Amon, along the foot of the mountain, in the frozen twilight, to the front of this mythical land.

Although Amon gave him the opportunity to try his best to escape, he didn't rush to do it, because he knew very well that Amon had at least the personality and strength of Sequence 2, and he was an angel in the true sense, not himself What's more, the "thief" is known for its errors, loopholes, and bugs, and its strange abilities make it hard to guard against. Klein believes that the self-rescue methods he can normally think of are basically impossible to be effective.

I can only be patient and wait for the opportunity that is available... During this process, I will continue to make some attempts to observe Amon's response... Well, I have to pay attention to one problem, I can't trust Amon's words too much, He I may not have lied about the fact that the "worm of time" has been withdrawn and my "parasitic" state has been lifted, but this may not be the whole truth. It cannot be ruled out that He still left a "worm of time" lurking in my body. The possibility of taking over the body at a critical moment... Klein was thinking about "chatting" with Amon and asking about the "Dark Angel" Saslier, but he saw the dusk disappearing not far away, surrounded by darkness, and a man with his teeth and claws baring. Lightning flashed in mid-air from time to time.

They arrived at the border of the "Royal Court of Giants" and were about to leave this mythical kingdom.

Once he was in the darkness here, he would either evaporate out of thin air, or be attacked by a sudden terrifying monster... Klein's heart moved, he pretended not to understand anything, and continued walking like that, from the orange dusk to the deep darkness.

At this moment, Amon, who was wearing a black classic robe, a pointed soft hat, and a monocle, stretched forward and pulled back a lantern covered with thin animal skin.

Inside the lantern, a candle made of unknown fat gave off a dim yellow light and a slightly pungent smell.

"Carry it." Amon threw the lantern to Klein.

…Klein caught the lantern, and was silent for a while.

After a few seconds, he tentatively asked:

"Where did you get that?"

At that moment just now, Klein thought that Amon could summon projections from the pore of history.

Amon squeezed the crystal-carved monocle and said with a smile:

"It was stolen from the human camp in front, oh, that is the Afternoon Town camp in the City of Silver."

Stolen... Klein's eyelids twitched slightly, and without further questioning, he carried the lantern and walked into the endless darkness.

The dim light spread rapidly like an invisible defensive barrier, creating a warm place in the dark night.

At this time, high-altitude lightning flashed one after another, with quite long intervals, and there was almost no thunder, only occasionally.

According to the common sense that Klein learned from the little "sun", this belongs to the night of the Land Abandoned by God, and it is the most dangerous time.

As he moved forward step by step, Klein first used the qualitatively changed "Faceless Man" ability to cooperate with "Squirming Hunger" to adjust the structure of his eyes to adapt to this special environment. Then, with the help of inspiration, he looked around.

He felt that in the lightless darkness, there were eyes staring at him, and creatures whose shapes were difficult to describe, but whenever the lightning lit up and illuminated those places, there was nothing.

——Klein is not worried at all about the serious backlash that will occur if he keeps using "Squirming Hunger" but cannot feed in the current environment. In his opinion, there are only two results. One is that "Squirming Hunger" tries to Swallowed himself, but was stolen by Amon. The second is that "squirming hunger" successfully swallowed the wearer, and he was reborn to get rid of the current predicament. The latter was what Klein expected. "Hunger" will be more confused, and there is no loss.

After walking like this for a while, Klein saw the Afternoon Town camp in the City of Silver built from abandoned buildings.

Behind the barriers surrounded by huge boulders and stone pillars, the bonfire burned quietly, illuminating most of the places inside, making them completely different from the outside world.

In twos and threes, the members of the City of Silver exploration team patrolled or guarded under the light, preventing accidents.

Among them, a "Dawn Knight" with a height of nearly 2.3 meters was standing on the barrier, looking into the distance, guarding against the monsters hidden in the darkness.

Suddenly, he saw in the depths of the darkness, a dim yellow light of fire coming from a distance.

This... The pupils of this "Knight of Dawn" suddenly dilated, and his heartbeat accelerated.

Except for the newly born and uneducated children, everyone in the City of Silver knows that in this land abandoned by the gods, except for humans, no one can use flames to create light in the dark, even monsters who are good at manipulating flames, Before launching an attack, they were also lurking in a dark environment. As for other humans, all the city-states discovered so far in the City of Silver have long since been destroyed and become relics. There are no survivors. The only outsider they have seen is that strange Little Jack.

And at this moment, a fire appeared in the depths of the darkness, a constantly moving fire!

What this meant, the "Knight of Dawn" standing on the barrier couldn't think of it for a while, but felt his body trembling slightly.

The dim light of the fire slowly passed from far to near, passing in front of the camp, and heading out of Wuwu Town. Indistinctly, the "Dawn Knight" saw two human figures walking in the depths of the darkness, surrounded by the light. An unusually blurred figure.

Carrying what looked like lanterns, they moved away from the camp step by step, disappearing into the endless darkness.

The "Dawn Knight" on the barrier held his breath at some point, until the dim yellow flame disappeared completely.

And other humans? No, not necessarily humans! The "Knight of Dawn" narrowed his eyes, turned his body carefully, and prepared to notify the elders of the "Six-member Council" who presided over the camp.

At this time, he found that one of the lanterns hanging on the stone pillars was missing at some point.

The "Dawn Knight"'s body stiffened suddenly, and cold sweat broke out on the back of his forehead at the same time.

…………

In the process of walking away from afternoon town step by step, Klein was under the gaze of pairs of eyes deep in the darkness, and quietly used the ability of "ancient scholar" and his connection with "Origin Castle" to sense the gray and white mist intertwined with history .

He succeeded.

This proves that "Land Abandoned by God" is not separated from "Origin Castle".

The sanctuary of the "True Creator", and even the Kingdom of God, is on this land... If I activate "Origin Castle" and create anomalies, will it cause him to watch and conflict with Amon... He is the true God , I don't expect to be able to escape in the chaos, but I can seize the opportunity of him to deal with Amon and commit suicide... Klein's thought will make "Origin Castle" tremble slightly.

In the next second, his thought disappeared.

Amon, who was walking next to him, raised his mouth slightly and said:

"'The Hanged Man' has no interest in 'Origin Castle'. Of course, his reason may not always be in his brain."

"'The Hanged Man' refers to the Sequence 0 of the 'Shepherd' pathway?" Klein himself didn't expect the impulse just now to be truly successful. He mainly wanted to try Amon's reaction and see how he responded. At this time There was no sign of frustration, and he asked questions with undisguised curiosity.

Amon nodded slightly and said:

"Yes, this symbolizes the fallen self. Of course, if you want to interpret it in a positive sense, it is sacrifice and commitment."

Klein thought for a moment, then tentatively said:

"I thought that was your nickname."

Just like Medici.

——As far as Klein knows, the birth of the "True Creator" due to the "Rose of Redemption" is likely to be related to the fall of the ancient sun god. Therefore, he wants to know what attitude Amon has towards this evil god, and whether he agrees with it. like his brother.

Amon stroked the monocle, and said with a smile:

"I have always had respect for the gods."

"The Blasphemer" said this really against the law... Klein had no choice but to stop this topic.
