Chapter 254 The Singer of Silence, the Lord of Bones
In the moment before they came back, the book Christine gave her at the last moment had the title "Quiet, Bones, and the Road of the Dead" on the cover.
Author, anonymous.
Because they could not explain its specific origin, Byrne and Chris could only study this book in private in another part of the canyon, which contained many mystical stories.
"You haven't seen it?"
Chris stared at Byrne, rarely surprised.
He knew how much Byrne loved reading. Byrne must have read most of the books in the Fisher family's study rooms.
As long as it is a book he has read, Byrne should be able to remember it.
"Indeed not."
Byrne slowly shook his head and said: "Just like you said, I have read not only every book in the Fisher family's collection, but at least most of them, so the answer is very simple. This book, "Quietness," "Bones, Path of the Dead" should be the Fisher family that has entered in recent years."
"While we're stuck in the canyon."
He flipped through the occult book in his hand and gradually frowned.
According to the content described in "Silence, Bones, and the Road of the Dead", there are a total of twenty-four great outsider gods in the endless multidimensional world.
They possess the terrifying power that is incomparable to other gods, and can easily cause the world to change and the world to fall!
The author of this book is one of the believers of this worldly god.
The name of that otherworldly god is...
"Song of Silence..."
Just when Byrne was about to pronounce the name, the surroundings suddenly became cold, as if everything became very quiet, and all sounds suddenly disappeared.
Chris's expression was also very solemn, and he didn't dare to move at all, as if he might die at any time.
what happened?
He took a breath of air and didn't dare to continue reading at all.
what happened?
Byrne slowly shook his head at Chris. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed that the terrifying atmosphere around him was gradually fading away.
The two finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Byrne thought for a moment and murmured to himself:
"It seems that His full name also carries a very powerful mysterious power. We can't pronounce His name directly, so we can use 'Singer' instead."
He continued to read. The content in the book was very important and determined whether several people could leave here.
The Silent Singer is one of the twenty-four great outsider gods.
He is also an otherworldly God.
The representative time is two o'clock in the morning every day.
At the same time, the Silent Singer represents death and silence, and is the absolute master of the world of the dead. Deep in the hearts of all living beings, his image is that of an elegant gentleman wearing a bone mask.
It is said that as long as the Silent Singer comes to the world, the entire country will fall into deathly silence, everything will be still, and people's souls will sink into the world of the dead.
One thing that followers of the Silent Singers have in common is that they refuse to speak unless necessary, and they try not to make even the slightest sound in their lives.
Therefore, a person who chatters incessantly and likes to be noisy can never be a true believer in Him.
The Silent Singer they believe in has very powerful power.
That is a power that the living cannot imagine.
The singer's song is soundless and silent. When He really begins to sing, the whole world will die completely in silence.
"The god outside the world..."
Byrne and Chris looked at each other. They both had concepts about gods outside the world.
Those gods who are called "outer world gods" are all extremely mysterious and possess terrifying power, and the believers who believe in those gods are often crazy, terrifying, and weird, which is full of fear.
The "Chaos Star" that the Star Supporting Club believes in is undoubtedly a terrifying extraterrestrial god.
If the contents recorded in those books are true, they all have the power to destroy heaven and earth.
However, most of the books contain exaggerated descriptions of the various records of the gods.
And Byrne and the others are completely unable to tell the difference between these otherworldly gods and the mysterious beings who are so powerful that they can be called gods, such as Poseidon. What is the difference between them?
Are they stronger or weaker than the Lord of Redeemer, Lord of Storms and other gods?
The only thing that the Fisher family can confirm is that the great Lord of the Lost is the most powerful god, and all gods except him are false gods!
Byrne murmured to himself:
"The Word of Silence is a religious order of singers spread all over the world. They worship death and silence, and their ultimate pursuit is to obtain 'peace of mind'."
"Peace of mind..."
He paused, feeling very strange, and said awkwardly:
"They want a peaceful death. It's strange, isn't it? There are people who regard 'death' as the ultimate goal of life."
Chris thought for a long time and said calmly: "It's not necessarily weird."
Byrne was stunned for a moment, maybe only people like Chris can understand.
After all, he is one who walks the path of silence.
Byrne flipped through the book in his hand and continued:
"This page records something about the Bones. About three thousand years ago in the Oden continent, there was a powerful man from the Apocalypse called the 'Lord of the Bones'. He was the leader of the Order of the Word of Silence in the world of Krad. The founder of.
"He will turn the bones of friends and enemies into strange and mysterious things like white jade, and those bones will have strange magical powers."
"It is said that the Lord of Bones has never spoken a word since he founded the Quiet Language."
"He possesses a very terrible power. He once tried to summon the singer through sacrifice, completely destroyed the entire country, murdered millions of people, and finally died at the hands of the previous Pope of Redemption, and failed to complete the final ceremony."
"..."
Byrne continued to read the records about the Lord of Bones, trying to find content related to this Valley of Bones, but he never found anything relevant.
Finally, he found a few sentences that might be useful, about the so-called "Road of the Dead".
That was a special trial conceived by the Lord of Bones, and only those who have experienced this trial can be qualified to serve as priests of the Quiet Language.
It was just because the casualty rate of this trial was too high, so after continuing for a thousand years, the "Road of the Dead" was finally completely abandoned by the Quiet Language of later generations.
Byrne thought for a while, and then he became a little happy. He analyzed: "The valley we are in may be a so-called trial field!"
"It's just that we haven't really started the trial yet, so we have been wandering here, but there is no way out."
"If we can start the trial and complete it, we will have a chance to leave this valley!"
The problem is here.
Byrne really wants to know how to really start the "Road of the Dead" trial of the Quiet Language, but this part of the content is not fully recorded in this book, only a few unrelated strange words.
"Quiet", "Bones", "Mist", "Wall".
Damn!
Why is the most critical content not recorded in full?
He took a deep breath and began to think about how to really start the trial?
While thinking, Byrne wondered how to tell Aldridge and the others about it? How to explain it so that those people would not suspect that he and Chris had just left the valley.
Chris folded his hands and thought about it, and nodded gently.
Byrne was stunned, and found the confidence in Chris's eyes, as if he already knew how to officially start the trial.
"How to do it?"
Chris took out a finger and made a "hush" gesture.
Byrne immediately shut up. It seems that the first step to start the trial is to keep quiet.
It's the so-called "quiet".
Chris nodded gently, then bit his finger and wrote a sentence on his white palm.
"Wait, let them wait with us until the next fog appears."
Wait?
Byrne sighed. Although he didn't like waiting, they had been trapped for several years, and it didn't matter how much they waited next time.
So they found Zain, March and others, and Chris made a silent gesture again, and then showed the sentence he had just written.
"Chris, what do you mean?"
Zain was stunned for a while, and then Aldridge also made a silent gesture, indicating that he didn't want to talk.
So he nodded gently and stopped talking.
March and Aldridge also remained silent. They were silent for a long time, more than ten hours, and then they couldn't hold it back any longer. Everyone looked at Chris, and he said it again, asking them to wait until the fog appeared.
Several people's faces changed. That might take several months!
