Chapter 488 A Little Willfulness
765
The open gray-blue door, the stone stairs going down, and the handrail made of a row of stone pillars.
Outside the railing is the diffuse orange-red cloud. In the distance of the cloud is a gently surging dark blue with no end in sight, a dark blue that makes a gurgling sound.
sea.
The deep blue, gently surging, invisible sea, as if containing endless life, appeared in the eyes of the members of the Silver City exploration team. It was no longer recorded in ancient books and documents, and it was no longer an alien. word combinations in the speaker's mouth.
The golden sea and the ubiquitous light once again caught the eyes of Colin and Lovia.
It is no longer far away, it is already within reach.
As members of the previous exploration team, this was not the first time they had seen this scene, but they were still deeply shocked to their souls and subconsciously held their breath.
Klein did not disturb the thoughts of the two Silver City demigods. He just walked out of the door first, looked around, and began to look for the people of the two cities.
That's nearly 20,000 people. According to Klein's most intuitive impression, this is the total number of people in a middle school, including students and teachers. At least a plastic playground with a 400-meter circular track can accommodate it.
The coordinates given by the Hidden Sage were also an area. Looking around, there was just an endless beach outside. Klein glanced at it for a while and then withdrew his sight. He decided to walk along the remaining outer wall of the "Giant King's Court". Look for it as you go.
"I don't know what happened during this period to the people of Silver City and Moon City..."
If the Hidden Sage comes with a memory, there is no need to worry. But if they feel that they "suddenly" came to a place outside the Giant King's Court and don't have any memories, then he has to make up the reasons from now on... Klein thought about whether he should tell the truth then, or make up something that would make things easier for him. "The Fool" is even more horrifying with such semi-documentary lies.
"Where will you place them after they get out?"
"More than 20,000 people is not a small number nowadays. It is a small town wherever you put it... Are you looking for a small island in the sea, or an uninhabited area within the north and south continents? The undeveloped interior of the land There must be a lot of area, but it has to be adjacent to other gods... It is not difficult to settle 20,000 people. What is difficult is to give these 20,000 people a matching living area and houses dedicated to these half-giants... …”
"...Fortunately, everyone in Silver City and Moon City has strong survivability, enough to build a temporary living area for themselves. Well, if the style is not too eye-catching, we can just find a way to move out of the two cities together. ...It’s not impossible.”
Although people in Moon City and Silver City can definitely start from scratch, almost all residents have experience in survival and camping in the wild.
If the two cities cooperate, they will definitely be able to build a residential area for 20,000 people in a short period of time - but after all, they are his followers now, and Klein feels that he should not be the kind of person who just fishes out people and ignores them. A great being, at least not right now.
So, he began to think about whether he could use his new authority to gain some convenience for believers.
"Wish comes true..."
To put it simply, the "Miracle Master" must first collect and satisfy various wishes, and then he can turn the corresponding situation into reality by making wishes to himself during battle.
Moreover, at the beginning, the wishes that Klein could realize were very small. He had to accumulate them step by step in order to create a "miracle". He couldn't just do whatever he wanted.
This also allowed him to clearly realize the fact when he returned, that is, the strange light door above the gray fog is the core of this place, the "Origin Castle" in the true sense, and the boundless void belongs to " "Origin Castle" has its own space.
As for the ancient palace, the long bronze table with twenty-two high-backed chairs, and the objects that members of the Tarot Club usually manifest, Klein believes that they are a manifestation of the power of "wishes."
In other words, when he wanted such a palace and a gathering place in his heart, "Origin Castle" fulfilled his wish.
Since there is no specific description of his wish, "Origin Castle" is a scene extracted from similar wishes in the past - Klein suspects that the ancient Greek-style palace and the ancient long table with exactly twenty-two high-backed chairs are both The existence that was originally suspected to be "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" had manifested.
"Well, if I want to transfer my location by making a wish like the Dark Demonic Wolf Kotar, then I must have fulfilled many similar wishes from others in advance, ranging from simple to difficult... There is a trick in this regard. I can use 'Creeping Hunger' and 'Teleport' to satisfy the corresponding wishes without starting from the simplest..."
"Maybe this time is a good opportunity?"
"I can first let Colin and Derrick hint to them, hinting them to make a wish to me, and then I can complete nearly 20,000 small wishes at once through teleportation, and I can turn the transfer of location into a 'miracle' for my use. "
It is obviously just a matter that can be solved by the gods with a wave of their hands, but they have to go to extra steps and act like believers are actively petitioning.
However, the effect of using "Miracle" to move directly is definitely more convenient and faster than summoning a historical projection during the battle, and then using "Creeping Hunger" or "Teleport". One less step may save your life. .
As the first person in history who has used up four resurrections before becoming a "Miracle Master", Klein attaches great importance to life-saving means.
As a matter of fact, he should do this.
Although it seemed like a win-win result, Klein always felt slightly frustrated.
"Speaking of it, the 'Wish' ability is a bit like using an anchor, it belongs to the 'Gathering' type."
"Since believers' knowledge of gods can effectively influence the gods and become a certain degree of 'positioning' to help them fight against the original spiritual imprint of extraordinary characteristics, then the similar wishes of different spiritual creatures can indeed help me create 'miracles' '."
"This may be related to the collective subconscious ocean. It's not scientific enough, but it's mystical enough..." After figuring out the "Wish" ability, Klein also had preliminary ideas on how to play the "Miracle Master".
That is to walk in the real world, let different people witness "miracles", and fulfill their wishes.
"No wonder the Dark Demonic Wolf's title is the 'God of Wishes'... When such a belief spreads, many people express their wishes through prayers, so that the 'Miracle Master' can respond from a distance. The performance will indeed be simple and easy. Less, which can save a lot of time. But the problem is that the name of the potion is 'Miracle Master', not 'God of Wishes', and the person who needs to play is not a god, there is still a big deviation between the two..."
Klein thought about it for a while, imagining how he would walk the earth as a "miracle worker".
When the time comes, will you define yourself as "the divine envoy of the Fool" or "the incarnation of the Fool walking on the earth"?
Just as he was thinking about it, Klein caught a glimpse of Colin and Lovia walking through the door. After admiring the sea for a while on the handrail terrace, they walked down the steps and approached his direction.
"Hey, this is also a luxurious trouble."
"Now I am also a god with a fixed group of believers, and I am also a descendant of half-giants who are as eye-catching as them. As a fool, I must first carefully examine and take responsibility for them."
Thinking of everyone's height, Mr. Fool, who had just reached the average height of a minor in Silver City, fell into deep thought.
Colin stopped two meters in front of Klein. When he saw the divine envoy thinking deeply, he did not speak immediately.
After half a minute, Klein ended his thinking, nodded towards Colin and Lovia, and smiled:
"Let's go find them."
"I have always regretted not being able to say hello to Derrick in Silver City. Fortunately, we are all alive now."
Colin's heartbeat accelerated slightly, and he could not restrain his excitement. He stared at the sea with rippling golden patches for several seconds before saying:
"OK."
Klein turned around and walked forward along the towering walls of the "Giant King's Court" not far away.
In this matter, he did not plan to use "divination" or "teleportation" to directly send himself and others to the people of Silver City. Instead, he slowly and quietly used his legs with the two demigods of Silver City. Walk over, walk on this sun-drenched beach, leave long footprints here, and remember what the "dawn" that Silver City finally found after more than two thousand years of perseverance and sacrifice looks like.
Sand, sand, only the soft sound of sand being stepped on.
Colin and Lovia were a little uncomfortable with the touch of the deep and shallow feet at first, but soon they got used to the soft sand.
Klein turned his head and looked at the outer wall of the "Giant King's Court" that was mostly in ruins.
Thinking of the replica of the "Twilight Palace" in the capital of the Fusac Empire, and of the giants who went to sea generation after generation in search of their dream hometown, he felt a little silent and sad for a moment.
Will the longing for hometown really be passed down in the blood?
Or perhaps, not only the giants who went to the northern continent missed their homeland, but also the eldest son of the giant king, the "God of War".
Let's go. He told himself it was time to go, and then looked away.
This is the hometown of giants, not my hometown.
…
Derrick woke up.
There is no special prefix, he just woke up, like waking up from a dream, and suddenly opened his eyes.
After opening his eyes, he felt confused at first, and then his body suddenly tensed up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
The last thing he remembers is that almost everyone in Silver City has put on a monocle, and they have all become the parasite targets of "Amon", appearing from every corner, and they are still parasitizing and escaping... People who rob. The Amons were not in a hurry to parasitize the entire Silver City. Instead, they enjoyed their panic and despair and anger, which forced them to attack their companions and relatives. Even though the chief fought hard with the people who had not been parasitized and tried to capture them alive as much as possible, they were still forced to the center of the city by the Amons and had to retreat to the chapel.
And at the beginning, these Amon appeared and preached in the name of "The Fool"!
Derrick later learned that he was also parasitized, so he even helped Amon confirm their story and helped spread the monocle.
Because in Silver City, the fact that Derrick was once parasitized by "Amon" is no longer a secret among the middle and high-level people. Coupled with Derrick's various changes later, most people in Silver City who don't know the inside story naturally Amon was regarded as an envoy of "The Fool", or some incarnation.
It was this chief and his mistakes that he never found a chance to deny publicly that almost destroyed Silver City!
At that time, Derrick was almost desperate.
He desperately wanted to pray to "The Fool", but he remembered Mr. "Fool"'s words "Don't pray" and was in a dilemma.
He finally chose to believe in "The Fool", gritted his teeth, and remained silent in the face of Amon's deceit and provocation. He was forced to witness his companions and familiar people being parasitized one after another, and falling one after another in the internal fighting.
Derrick clenched his fists, ready to shine a ray of sunlight somewhere at any time, but he nervously checked the situation on the left and right - and then discovered that he was not in the chapel of the Fool, there was not even a ceiling here.
Not only that, there is no ceiling, no walls, no house…
There is a huge and thick city wall in the distance, and beside it is the sparkling sea. From this angle, it seems to be the location of the Giant King's Court.
As if in the blink of an eye, he and everyone else were outside.
This extremely fragmented situation left Derrick confused. After pinching himself hard to confirm that it was not a dream, Derrick suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart:
Is Mr. Fool coming to save them?
Transferring everyone to other places in an instant, not even an Amon, this could only be the power of the gods!
Mr. "Fool" did not abandon them!
Derrick was so happy that he almost jumped on the spot and felt his eyes were a little moist.
Wiping the corners of his eyes vigorously with the back of his hand, and after praising the gods he believed in several times in his heart, he rolled up his sleeves and opened his collar, and found that the wounds and bandages on his body were still there, which made him even more determined. own ideas.
He quickly looked back and found that almost all the residents of Silver City were here, including the elderly, children, and the wounded, but those who Derrick had seen dead or seriously injured and dying were not here.
In addition, there are many new faces that I have never seen before, and the animal skin clothes they wear are very much like the "Moon City residents" mentioned by the chief.
Everyone stood at about the same distance apart, with their eyes closed tightly and breathing steadily, as if they had fallen asleep while standing. He was the only one who woke up for some reason.
After a brief period of disappointment, Derrick quickly cheered up.
Mr. "Fool" is willing to help Silver City out of danger as a gift from God. He cannot ask Mr. "Fool" to do more.
After a while, Derrick, who was staring at the sea, suddenly heard footsteps in the distance. He turned his head suddenly and saw three figures walking hand in hand from the end of his field of vision.
The figures of the two people were very familiar. Derrick recognized them at a glance - they were the Chief and Elder Lovia. They were both in Silver City when the attack occurred. Why did they suddenly appear in the distance? ——Before he had time to figure it out, Derrick saw another figure about the same height as himself in front of them. He was a young man wearing strange clothes with a stern face. The fabric of the clothes was unnamed, and he also wore glasses. , but it is a double piece.
The three of them all had scars of varying degrees on their bodies, as if they had just experienced a hard battle.
Derrick stared at that figure, and suddenly there was a voice in his throat.
"Mr. World!"
Unable to restrain his excitement, he couldn't help but take a step forward, waved vigorously towards the figure, and shouted loudly: "Mr. World! Is it you? Did Mr. Fool ask you to help us?" "
Klein, who was walking quickly, raised his hand and responded to Derrick's call.
Seeing familiar friends, his mood quickly improved a lot. He smiled and said in a child-like tone:
"Yes, I'm here to help you."
"This must be the first time we meet, little Sun, or Mr. Derrick Berg?"
Although it was no secret that he had contacts with outsiders, Derrick could not help but blush slightly in front of the chief (even though Colin and Lovia were both paying attention and pretending not to hear).
"Great, great." He stepped forward and said over and over again, "Mr. Fool has not abandoned us, He has not abandoned us, thank you for coming, thank you, Mr. World"... …
As he spoke, a tear suddenly slipped from the corner of Derrick's eye.
The tall young man blinked and smiled nonchalantly: "I, I'm so happy."
Klein rubbed his nose and whispered:
"Don't worry, He will not abandon you, and the Creator has not given up on you either."
"It is precisely because of their efforts that I appear here and have the opportunity to open the door and help you go to the outside world."
As he spoke, Klein looked at Derrick who was wiping his face violently, and suddenly thought of something:
"Going out from here is the outside world. Maybe we will set off soon. Derrick, have you checked? Are everyone in Silver City here?"
Derrick was stunned for a moment, then whispered in a somewhat embarrassed voice:
"The people killed by Amon are not here."
"We, we may have to go back, because if the people in Silver City are not killed by their relatives, they will turn into evil spirits and wander around the city. Even if we have to leave, we cannot leave many evil spirits to continue in the city. Destroy it?"
Klein was stunned: According to the Hidden Sage, everyone has been digitized, and there can be no corpses.
"I will handle this matter." Klein changed the subject, "So are all the people parasitized by Amon here too?"
Derrick was silent for a while and said in a harsh voice:
"Many people are not here, maybe because I haven't looked carefully yet, because I saw that people from Moon City are also here."
Klein pursed his lips.
If the Hidden Sage captured the information at that moment, or within 24 hours, then the people who had been deeply parasitized by that time, equivalent to becoming Amon, would definitely not be here. Only those who are superficially parasitic and those who have not died from serious injuries will be "resurrected".
After thinking about it, Klein suddenly smiled:
"Derrick, let us pray to Mr. Fool. Do you hope they will appear here safely?"
"Of course I hope!" Derrick nodded vigorously, and then said sheepishly, "...Isn't this not good? Mr. Fool has helped us a lot, and I can't just take His kindness as a certainty."
"It doesn't matter, Mr. Fool won't mind. When I came, He already allowed me to make any request."
Klein turned to look at Colin and Lovia, and asked, "Do you hope so too?"
The two demigods nodded without surprise.
"So don't worry, Derrick."
He turned his head back, looked at the young man in front of him, and closed his eyes:
"Everyone is safe and well, that's what I hope."
Colin, Lovia, and Derrick imitated his example, closed their eyes, and prayed to "The Fool" together.
Klein sighed softly and realized his wish.
Suddenly, many figures appeared in the crowd. Their shapes were twisted, like balls of flesh and blood being shaped. Soon, they turned into nearly a hundred humanoid shapes, all of which were those in Derrick's memory that had been deeply affected. Parasitic person.
In addition, there are people from Moon City, and the high priest Nim is also among them.
At the same time, Klein moved his fingers slightly, manipulating the threads of the spiritual bodies of these "people", replicating their appearances according to the data that came with the potion, simulating their personalities, waiting to be captured together with the others. "wake".
Is this a miracle?
Klein thought.
Maybe for them, even though it was just falsehood and temporary joy, Klein was willing to deceive himself like this.
TBC
——————
After a while, Derrick opened his eyes and saw the serious-faced Mr. World in front of him suddenly smiling, as if relieved.
"Just think of it as my human willfulness."
Klein said to himself: "This is good...this is enough."
