Chapter 1026 The Guardian’s Head

Facing Claude's invitation, Vivian's first reaction was to be a little more wary.

She has more than 10,000 years of experience and has seen all the storms and waves that have happened on this planet. In recent years, she has also seen the storms and waves that have happened on other planets. She is not a timid person. She just feels that this gloomy person Lorde is weird, weird to the point of being suspicious.

A young demon hunter of the same rank as White Fire, no matter how amazingly talented he is in magic and combat skills, he lacks the necessary qualifications and life wisdom. At least in theory, such a young man must lack both of these. . But the Claude in front of him obviously did not meet these characteristics, and he also frankly admitted that there was "something else" in his soul. Faced with this situation, Vivian had to ask one more question: "Before I go with you, let me ask, who are you? Are you Claude? Or something else? If it is some old guy, it's a big deal. Let’s talk frankly, I think there should be no creature older than me on this planet, maybe we are old acquaintances.”

"I am indeed Claude," the young demon hunter smiled, "It's true. But I also received an additional inheritance. This inheritance coexists with Claude's soul, allowing me to know the ancient times." Secret, and let me extend an invitation to you here and now. Please come with me, I am going to take you to meet the owner of that inheritance."

"Shall we follow together?" Hao Ren pointed at himself and Lily next to him, "Not everyone here is reliable."

"Everyone," the young demon hunter just nodded, his eyes also swept over Bai Huo and Tutanin, "Everyone who appears in front of me at this moment and here should be invited. This was passed down six thousand years ago. Order."

It’s this thing that spans time and space again!

Hao Ren couldn't help but feel a chill. He was most indifferent to the fact that a guy like this who died thousands of years ago still left a prophecy saying what would happen in XX year and month XX, because fate and fate Prophecy is the most evil thing in his mind, and when he becomes a part of such a prophecy, he becomes even more vain. But Claude had already reached this point, and he couldn't let go of this opportunity, so he finally nodded and said, "Okay, let's go with you."

So this "young" demon hunter, who had been shrouded in mystery, led everyone out of the ritual ceremony hall and followed a secret passage to the depths behind the hall. On the way, Hao Ren couldn't help but get close to Bai Huo: "Seriously, what kind of person was Claude before?"

"As I said, we don't have much contact," Bai Huo frowned, "Before he joined the Presbyterian Order, he was a taciturn and introverted guy. After joining the Order, he followed the rules and precepts and basically lived a reclusive life like the saints. According to the rules, the attendants of the saint are not allowed to marry, buy property, leave the North, and are not even allowed to leave the spiritual world clock tower unless necessary. How can I know what changes have happened to a guy like this who has completely wrapped himself up? "

Bai Huo and Hao Ren didn't lower their voices very much, so Claude heard clearly, but the young attendant had no grudges about it. He also explained patiently: "Every attendant of the saint has passed the ceremony. After taking office, the old squire will retire during the ceremony, the new squire will receive blessings during the ceremony, and some ancient memories will be passed on to the successor through this ceremony. The history of the Witcher is too long, and we are this As the oldest race on the planet, certain secrets must be passed on in a safe way.”

Hao Ren was perfunctory, and finally, led by Claude, he came to a secret room.

Claude stood at the door of the secret room and activated the heavy ancient physical door. The door floated upward silently and opened: "Please go in, an ancient man has something to say to you."

Hao Ren and Vivian looked at each other and walked into the room side by side.

Then I was frightened by the scene inside.

There was no furniture in the perfectly round room, except for a huge, altar-like thing placed in the center, and on this altar stood a huge head that was two meters high. This head is old and shrunken, with white hair and vertical wrinkles, and a majestic aura on its dark red face.

There is only one head.

Lily, who came in later, was also startled. Then she stepped forward to check the condition of the head with the funny and silly spirit that a husky should have. She wanted to see if the neck and body were hidden in the altar under the head. , but just when she was about to step forward, the head slowly opened its eyes.

A pair of slightly turbid eyes, but still full of wisdom, slowly swept over Hao Ren and his party, and then everyone heard a voice directly ringing in their minds: "You are here, it seems that this disaster It was solved by you."

Hao Ren stared at the head for a while before suddenly realizing what it was: a guardian giant!

Compatriot of Mulu and Remendusa, loyal guard of the goddess of creation, a guardian giant - but only one head.

Others obviously recognized the race of this head, but they all realized that the current situation was unclear, so no one rashly mentioned the names of the goddess of creation and the eldest son. Even Lily, a heartless person, covered her head with all her strength. Mouth: She almost blurted out the word "Guardian", but fortunately her reaction was quite fast.

Vivian looked at the Giant Skull cautiously, not sure whether this guardian living on the earth, like other aliens, also suffered a memory shock while crossing the wall of reality: "You are..."

"Old friend, you have indeed lost your memory again," the voice of the Giant Skull came again, with a gentle smile, "Well, there happen to be many faces that I have met for the first time, so let me introduce them: You can call me Mimir."

"Mimir?!" Lily exclaimed immediately, "Mimir, the wise giant in Norse mythology who guarded the fountain of wisdom, tricked Odin, and was finally chopped into pieces by the Warner Protoss?"

Lily was so talkative that most people couldn't stop her. Before Hao Ren could react, she had already said all these mindless words. However, there was no sign of anger in the giant head. This huge head Just showing a smile: "It was an accident. The clumsy Heiner should not have touched the mechanical platform. Vanaheim's solar prism melted my body. It is a regrettable loss, but my head is still alive. and……"

The Giant Skull said humorously, and at the same time, many runes suddenly lit up on the ground near the altar. Under the light of the runes, various tools floated out from every corner of the room and moved flexibly in the air. .

"I can still take care of myself."

Hao Ren stared: "So... the giants in Nordic mythology are actually Shou... is this what you are like?"

He felt something was wrong as soon as he raised this question, and then he instantly realized: What a powerful creature the guardian giants are. Even without the support of superb technology, these demigods still have the power to crush mortal species. If only one guardian giant fell alone among those ancient "gods", it would be okay. Without equipment support, they are not as powerful as the eldest son and can be killed by mortal species. But if the giants in Nordic mythology The entire clan is these guardians...

The Age of Mythology had long since been pacified by them, and what about the subsequent war between the demon hunters and the gods?

Sure enough, Mimir smiled: "It seems that these stories have been misinformed as I expected. There is only one wise giant, and that is Mimir. The other giants are different from me."

Vivian's face had been serious since just now. She was trying hard to fiddle with her messy memories, but she couldn't remember anything related to Mimir. In other words, she remembered that she once knew a "wisdom giant" from the Nordic family, but she could not remember anything about this giant's appearance, life, or acquaintance experience. She couldn't help but pat her forehead: "It's too bad, I can't remember anything about you at all. Were you caught here by a demon hunter?"

Although Mimir's true identity is a demigod guardian created by the goddess of creation, in the mythological system on this side of the earth, he is a member of the Nordic mythology, and the demon hunters ended the Nordic mythology - so Mimir's The only explanation for the head appearing in the spirit world clock tower is that he was caught here.

"At first, yes," Mimir replied slowly, "but then I stayed voluntarily. They needed my wisdom, my knowledge and advice, and I needed a stable place to live. Especially after knowing that they After learning about their history, the reasons for their hunting, and the many secrets they kept, I couldn't leave - these reckless little creatures touched things they shouldn't have touched, and I didn't have the ability to lift the curse. But at least it can delay its onset until you, old friend, come here to solve the remaining problems. Now it seems that my wait was worth it after all, although it seems that the process is not what I imagined."
