Chapter 1680 Bruce Wayne and the Chamber of Secrets (IV)
"Gods? Are you saying you have the blood of angels and demons?"
Harry sat down on the soft mattress Helen had conjured up. Seeing Helen's slightly surprised expression, Harley spread her hands and explained, "Sorry, but I'm not from your universe. In fact, I don't know the New York you just mentioned. The city I live in is called Gotham, in New Jersey."
"New York is not far from New Jersey." Helen also jumped onto the bed, but she sat cross-legged in the middle of the bed. She looked Harley up and down.
The girl in front of her with platinum hair was much older than her and had entered her teenage years. She had fair skin and a sweet look, but for some reason she always had a gloomy Gothic temperament, which was not often seen in girls of this age.
"My other father, you can also think of him as my mother, is from the Asgard God Clan. You must have heard of Norse mythology, right?"
"So the God Clan in your universe is the group of gods in Norse mythology? Odin or something?"
"Yes, then what about your universe?"
"There are many. Angels include Lucifer, Michael, Gabriel, etc., and demons include Beelzebub, Azazel, etc. I heard from Diana before that Zeus is also real."
"Do you have a cosmic demon there?"
"What is that?"
"Well... a powerful creature that lives in the universe and is rarely known to humans." Helen stroked a finger. She lowered her cheek, as if she didn't know how to explain it to Harley. After thinking for a long time, she said, "They are the opposite of interstellar civilization. There is only one powerful individual in the entire race, and each one is different. The powerful ones among them can even occupy a dimension, called dimensional demons, represented by Mephisto who controls hell, Dormammu, the lord of the dark dimension, and so on."
"Then what about the magic of this universe?" Harley asked again, "Who do you borrow from? ... Wait, you need to borrow money, right?"
"In essence, yes." Although Helen gave an affirmative answer, she still shook her head and said, "But I was born , humans no longer need to rely on borrowing. ”
“Then rely on what?”
“It started with robbery and ended with fraud. What I mean is a ‘comprehensive financial activity’…”
Harry didn’t fully understand what Helen meant. The two exchanged the situations of the two universes. In the end, Helen leaned on Harley completely, rubbed her arm with her head and said, “I don’t know why, you look a little different from the people in this world, as if you are particularly dark, but I like it very much. I often feel that the people in this universe are too cheerful.”
“Come on, I’m already the most cheerful person in our universe.” Harley spread her hands and rolled her eyes Said: "If you know someone who came with me, you will know what true darkness is."
"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about school. What grade are you going to take?"
"The old wizard said before that I can go directly to the fourth grade, but she also said that if we adapt well, we can skip grades."
Helen took a breath, she changed her posture, no longer sticking to Harley, but a little further away from her, and looked her up and down again, and said with some sigh: "It seems that she has confidence in you, I hope you can handle it."
"What do you mean?" Harley looked at Helen in surprise and asked.
Helen shook her head, as if she felt that this matter could not be described. Soon she pressed against Harley again. The two girls leaned against the head of the bed, their heads close together. Helen turned her eyes and said, "Have you studied preparatory courses in the village?"
"No, we were thrown directly into the study of the Supreme Sorcerer. I almost fainted because of the altitude reaction just now."
"Wait!" Helen exclaimed. She straightened up from her paralyzed state, stared into Harley's eyes and said, "You mean, you have been to the study of the Supreme Sorcerer? Who took you away from there? Was it Master Gu Yi?"
Harley found a trace of anxiety on Helen's face. She blinked and shook her head and said, "No, it was not the old wizard. He was taken away by the Supreme Sorcerer. They call him Master Song, and there is a little girl named Sirira, who is not much older than me. "
Helen let out a long breath and relaxed. Harley saw that something was wrong. She squinted her eyes and looked at Helen and asked, "Who is Master Gu Yi? Why do you look a little afraid of her?"
"I..." Helen dragged out a long tone. She introduced to Harley who Gu Yi was in the most concise language, and then she said, "Now the study room of Kamar-Taj Academy is shared by two Supreme Sorcerers. Master Gu Yi will come back occasionally. I'm just worried... the study room is too messy."
This paragraph is inconsistent. Harley's eyes narrowed even more. She took her legs from the bedside to the bed, sat down cross-legged like Helen, and asked in a string of words.
"What if Master Gu Yi comes back? It's obviously that little girl Sirira who is responsible for cleaning the study room. What are you worried about? How can the study room be too messy?"
"Uh..."
Helen doesn't seem to be good at lying, and more importantly, the pure atmosphere of this universe makes it impossible for her to make up a lie to fool a Gotham person. Although Harley is not good at detective skills, the dark nature of the universe she lives in is destined to make it more than just Batman who is suspicious.
"You must be hiding something interesting from me!" Harley snorted coldly and said, "If you don't tell me, I'll tell Master Song!"
"Oh my God, don't do this." Helen raised her head and wailed, then said, "We just met not long ago, you can't let me tell you the secret like this."
"But secrets are only fun when shared with others." Harley shook Helen's shoulders vigorously and said, "Just tell me, I'm interested in all the interesting things in the world, maybe I can help."
Helen seemed a little entangled, her lips pursed again and again, and her cheeks with a little baby fat bulged, as if she couldn't help but reveal the secret.
Finally, Helen couldn't stand Harley's nagging anymore. She moved to the bedside and jumped off the big bed. She waved to Harley and said, "Come with me, come to my room, I'll show you something."
Harley was a little wary but not too much. This girl was a complete fun person. Although she didn't completely become a clown girl because of Schiller, she was still a little crazy and didn't hesitate to take risks for fun.
Harley followed Helen to her room. Their rooms were next to each other. The layout was just mirror symmetrical. There was a big bed and a huge cabinet next to the bed. Helen was lying on the bottom drawer of the cabinet looking for something. After a while, she took out a book from it.
Harley came over with some curiosity. Helen blew on the cover of the book to blow away the fine dust on it, and then stroked the pattern of the strange words on the cover with her fingers.
When her fingers moved away, there was a dizzying string of words written on it - "Book of the Dead".
Harley gasped and closed her eyes tightly, then shook her head and said, "Are you serious? I dare say that this book condenses amazing darkness! Where did you find it?"
"The Supreme Sorcerer's study."
Harley stiffened for a moment, Helen looked around, walked to the door and stuck her head out to make sure that no one was in the corridor, and then returned to the desk with the book.
She put the book in the middle of the table, then moved a chair for Harley, and the two sat down face to face at the desk.
The blizzard in the Himalayas had not stopped, and there was a howling storm outside the round Zen window. When the bright light reflected from the snow entered the room, all the furniture dragged long cold shadows.
"Like you, I didn't enter school normally. We'll talk about this later, but... I think you should have seen that I am much more logical than normal children of this age. This wisdom comes from my father, one of my fathers."
"Don't ask any details. Anyway, I am a descendant of both God and a unique genius in the universe. He gave me a smart mind and a strong curiosity, so when I walked through the portal and landed in the study of the Supreme Sorcerer, I moved some things that I shouldn't have moved."
"This book?"
"Yes, I'm sure that Master Gu Yi had just left not long ago, and before she left, she was studying this book."
"What's special about this book?"
"I'm trying to investigate, but this means something more serious, that is, the current Supreme Sorcerer Strange doesn't know the existence of this book at all." Helen gently stroked the edge of the book with her fingers and said, "Otherwise he wouldn't open the portal for me to enter school in his study. He didn't even know that Master Gu Yi was using the study at that time. I don't know why Gu Yi kept it from him."
"It doesn't sound like a good sign."
"Of course No. "Helen shook his head gently and said:" When a mage is carried out with everyone to study something, it means that the possessiveness of knowledge exceeds the desire for the truth, otherwise why not use more days to study the brains. " When a person's power has reached its peak, they are easily caught in this state. They will believe that there is an ultimate answer they have not got, and they will not hesitate to get this answer. "" I am worried about this. " What a monster can be played in this book? "" I have played it too, the monster is not terrible. "Helen raised his eyes and looked at Harry's eyes and said," The terrible is that the elephant is in the room, but we can't see it. " Love seems to be playing a mysterious beings.
"I've never heard my teacher mention this book." Strange's eyes narrowed slightly, and when his eyelashes crossed, his pupils also had a bit of deep darkness.
But Schiller's expression was a bit subtle, because if he remembered correctly, the author of this book was none other than Schiller Rodriguez.
