"What exactly are...nightmare creatures?"
"Nightmare..." In the darkness, Elf Yez Leonard looked at Fang Plover with a look of uneasiness mixed with surprise. Fang Yu used a little trick here. Instead of talking about shadow people, he followed An Luoser's description of nightmare creatures. Unexpectedly, it really worked.
Elf Yates Leonard said with some difficulty: "I didn't expect that you even knew this...In terms of intelligence, they underestimated you very much. They thought they had you under their control. Those things were not successful enough. The Chosen One..."
He looked at Fang Yu and his group with some horror: "I didn't mean that you..."
Fang Yu shook his head indifferently, how could he care about this with the other party.
Elf Yates Leonard breathed a sigh of relief, "The Nightmare tribe was born in the Nightmare World. It was a nightmare-like world, just like a reflection of our world, but without the four elements of wind, water, fire, and earth. , there is no light, only endless darkness, where the starlight degenerates into another form, so life no longer exists, leaving only a scorched earth of death..."
"Nightmare Realm?" Hongye looked at the other party a little suspiciously. She had never heard such a term before.
"But if there really is a world that is a reflection of Etalia, how can the world know nothing about it?" Alyssa also stared at the Patriarch of Altori Diocese with a warning look, "Don't even think about it. Lie to us. The Chosen have summarized a huge amount of information in half a century. You should know that we are hundreds of times more efficient than you in summarizing information and data. A world reflected in Etalia is not a It’s a small concept, but I’ve never seen anyone discuss it.”
"That's because you don't usually use this term..." Elf Yez Leonard glanced at Fang Pliance, who was actually very surprised, "...just like you more often use the term 'Shadow Man' The name is the same, but the Nightmare Realm also has a more widely known name, and that is... Disaster Star."
"What, the bad luck star!?" Several people almost shouted.
Elf Yez Leonard secretly paid attention to the performance of several people, and nodded calmly, "Yes, Bane Star. Just like the reflection of Aitaria, there is not only one such world, But there are many. The masters of those powerful wills..." He paused and changed his words, "The Dark Saints dominate these worlds... The Scorching Hell Teratuk is the god of anger and destruction, Falam Uchi. The world of Silk is the number one disaster star, Black Flame.
The second bane star, Mayadmak, the land of fear, is dominated by two dark saints, the dragon god Owenroth... and the god of disaster, Green... The name you give to the bane star is exactly the same. from the latter. "
"So the distance between Aitalia and the Star of Disaster reciprocates in cycles. Whenever it approaches a certain point in time, the two worlds will reach the closest distance," Fang Yu said quietly: "Whenever this happens, Will the passage between the two worlds be opened?”
Elf Yates Leonard glanced at him with a complicated expression: "You are right, this is the reason why the misfortune star came."
"Ed, how do you know..." Hongye asked Fang Pulver in a low voice.
Fang Yu shook his head gently. After experiencing so many things, the clues they had were enough to deduce this point. It was just a lot of missing information gradually connected together.
There's nothing hard to say, but he doesn't want to reveal too much in front of the Patriarch of the Crow's Claw Temple. He just plans to find another time to talk in detail with Hongye and others.
"What about the third evil star?" Saya asked in a low voice in the darkness.
"The third evil star," Elf Yez Leonard seemed hesitant, "...the Mark of Awakening, Mashor, we know this name from dreams, and the great existence imbued it with its existence. Entering into our minds, we still don’t know who its master is. It only gave us a clear omen in the oracle. It was a picture... floating on the dark sea, blood-red. moon."
"Blood Moon," the light of the gray illumination crystal extended downwards along the seemingly endless long stairs. Hongye stepped forward a few steps in the shadow, turned around and looked at everyone: "I have indeed heard of this. There are different opinions about the origin of the Bane Star. The oldest record comes from the Abyssal Scroll, which records a god who dominates distortion, death, monsters and the end. Its symbol is the bleeding moon. It is the Holy of Saints—but the name of this Dark Saint is never recorded in the ancient books.”
"I understand," 'Grey Whistle' Blackbo snapped his fingers, "I don't know much about the First Scourge, but the Disaster of Eshorin only happened a thousand years ago. When the green came, mortals and elves came together. It has resisted the invasion of dragons and giants for centuries. Giants and dragons are the dependents of Verdant and Owenroth, so the shadow people...the 'nightmare creatures' mentioned by Mr. Ed are from the Third Bane Star. The Lord, the descendant of the dark saints, when the power of darkness comes back, they will follow them."
Elf Yates Leonard was about to nod, but Fang Plover looked at him and replied: "I'm afraid not."
Fang Plover's eyes fell on the former like a knife. He had figured out the origin of Tang De's grandfather, the wanderer.
I am afraid that the other party is no longer a member of the Grosel family, but is just a puppet controlled by the shadow man. He then thought of the armor that Miss Attila and Tianlan found in Dolifen's catacombs. It must have been as early as Before the arrival of the Third Bane, even in the era of Isolin's Scourge, the Shadow Men had already laid out their plans in Etalia.
Elf Yates Leonard opened his mouth.
He deliberately concealed it, but in the end he had to change his words: "Yes, the third evil star has not yet come to our world... Everything about that world is still unknown, and we still don't know who the Lord's dependents are.
But the Shadow People... The Shadow People are a little different from them. They are the natives of the Nightmare World, and even arrived in that world before the Dark Saints. Their relationship with the Dark Saints is cooperation, not slavery... Generally speaking, we call them the Eternals...or, the People of God. "
Fang Yu suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his head, and fragments of several scenes flashed through his mind. They were like pictures drawn on the rock wall, a huge shadow as tall as a mountain, a falling meteor, and a black Two gods fighting each other.
He always remembered where he had heard such a term, people of gods, but the stinging pain interrupted his thinking and made him shake his head violently.
"Mr. Ed, are you okay?" Blackbo looked at him worriedly.
Fang Yu shook his head again and recalled the fragments that flashed in his mind before, but as if he was awakened from a dream, the memory had become fragmented.
However, this is not the first time he has heard such a term as the Eternal One. Unexpectedly, the Eternal One still refers specifically to the Shadow Man among the Dark Believers.
They are like envoys of the dark saints, planning every move of the dark believers behind the scenes. From the tragedy of the Grossl family to the disaster of the Dragon Witch a hundred years ago, it seems that there are shadows of these divine envoys behind them.
The clues are connected again.
He looked at Alyssa on one side. Miss Nightingale held the recording crystal in her hand and preserved this conversation intact.
"What is the true purpose of the Crow's Claw Temple?"
After figuring out the general origin of the shadow man, Fang Pultru asked the second question.
But this time Elf Yez Leonard seemed particularly silent. It wasn't until Fang Plover motioned the founder of the Redeemed to take a step forward that he reacted and replied: "Don't come over, I said... they The purpose is to open a door..."
"A door? Is it the door that connects the Third Woe Star to Aitalia? Do they want the Third Woe Star to come to this world ahead of time?" Fang Pliant asked.
Elf Yates Leonard shook his head: "How can the door between the two worlds be opened so easily? What they want to open is the door to the green..."
"Wait a minute," Blackbo said with some disbelief: "Is it the second bane star Cang Cui? But didn't the arrival of the second bane star fail? Even Cang Cui sank into the abyss with Aesorin. "
But Elf Yez Leonard looked at the young man with a complicated expression and said: "What they want to open is the door to the green world of will, the world of the second misfortune star Mayadmak itself. They all turned into nothingness in that invasion. Both Owenroth and Green Green came to this world, one was missing and the other died. But Green Green hid a part of Mayadmak in her god before she died. In the kingdom, what they want to open is the door to the Kingdom of God, where there is also a dark army lurking - the ship of the dead, Navlund."
Black ships anchored at both ends of the storm——
A sentence in the crow's prophecy suddenly flashed into Fang Plover's thoughts.
But before anyone else realized this, Blackbo was still asking, "How do they open the door?"
"Emerald Star," Elf Yez Leonard said: "The green fragment still contains the message of the great master. They disguised the fragment as a barrier crystal, using three crystals as anchor points. , open the door to this world from the Green Kingdom of God.”
Three crystals?
Fang Yu was slightly startled, weren't there only two?
He looked at Elf Yez Leonard and asked calmly: "Which three crystals are they?"
"One of them is in Gula. I think you should know the whereabouts of that crystal, otherwise you wouldn't come to this place," Elf Yez Leonard replied: "The other one is in El Paxi , as for the third one, I don’t know where it is.”
Kweed took a step forward with a cold face, but the patriarch from the Artori region screamed: "Don't come over, I really don't know... Even if you kill me, I don't know. But you Kill me, and some secrets will remain secrets forever."
Fang Yu reached out to stop the founder of the Redeemed, looked at the hateful-looking cultist carefully, and looked him up and down: "What other secrets do you know?"
Elf Yates Leonard let out a long breath and looked at everyone who hesitated for a moment: "For example... something related to your Super Competitive League."
…
Sylvester looked down at the elf lady in her palm.
She also looked at Nini with some amusement as she imitated her 'sister', sitting on her knees in an obedient manner, wagging her flaming little tail and tilting her little head to look at them.
"Ms. Tata, can you tell me more about what's going on inside?"
Tata nodded quietly: "There have always been only two main selector forces in Gula Port, one is Silver Vislan, and the other is the former Tapolis Oak Knights. But apart from these two large Outside of the guild, there are still some smaller forces... In such a large port city, small is only a relative term, at least they are much larger than those we encountered in Oronze. "
"Does it have the scale of Rain Listener or Blood Oath, Miss Tata?" Tian Lan asked.
The goblin lady nodded.
"There are four more such guild masters, namely Seal of the Gods, Fantasy of Dreams, Sword of Dimension, and Guild of Origin," she added, while pushing up the silver-rimmed glasses made of magic power that she wore on the bridge of her small nose. He looked quietly at the light page that was taller than his own, "But only the origin of it will be that it suddenly emerged after the dissolution of the Oak Knights of Tapolis, while the conflicts between the other three guilds have been around for a long time. In Oak After the disbandment of the Knights, these guilds have already privately declared war in order to compete for the power vacuum and the legacy left by the Knights."
"That's true. I've heard these rumors a long time ago," Jita also whispered, "But the fights between guilds are often under the surface, and the grudges between the selectors can only be revealed in the selection process. It is resolved between the two parties. In fact, few outsiders know this, but I didn’t expect Miss Tata to understand it so carefully.”
"Mr. Knight told me." Tata said truthfully.
"How does Brother Ed know so clearly?" Tianlan was a little curious.
Fang Yu didn't tell them that the information was all sold from a certain lady - the Mark of the Gods was closely related to Silver Vislan, and the Oak Knights of Tapolis were behind the fantasy of the dream.
Among the three guilds, only the Dimensional Sword seems to be independent, but in fact it is the nail planted here by the descendants of Flor. Behind it is the Godslayer Alliance, which is the guild to which Ming belongs.
Fang Yu knew about this early on.
When R introduced the major guilds to him, he had already revealed everything about the subordinate branches of these guilds, and even pointed out the secret relationship between the Blood Oath and the Jeflett Redcoats. .
Although Fang Yu was also a little curious about how his cheap teacher knew so much, he had never gotten an answer to such a question.
Before heading to the North this time, Fang Plover had considered the possibility of dealing with the Rainbow Alliance, so he had already investigated the situation here clearly.
He had some information, so he went directly to Ming. Although the other party was a little curious about how he knew about the relationship between the Dimensional Sword and the God Killer, he didn't ask in detail.
On the other hand, betraying the opponent's information was not a big deal. I sold him the marks of the gods and the fantasy of the dream on the spot.
Fang Yu originally offered to pay, but Ming didn't accept it. She said that she was not an information dealer like Washing hands. If Fang Yu really wanted to pay for this, he would treat it as a favor to her.
Of course, the so-called favor was owed in a personal capacity. Considering the relationship between the Godslayer and the descendants of Flor, he would not risk the Seven Seas Brigade.
Ming also asked about washing his hands by the way: "She went to Xia Jin Tower with you, but she disappeared after that. Do you know where she went?"
Fang Yu could only shake his head.
Ming said to him a little funny: "That little girl seems to like you quite a lot. I thought she went on an adventure with you."
Fang Yu couldn't help but wipe his sweat after hearing this. After he knew the true identity of the 'Ms. Washing Hands', how could he not know that Ms. Ming was making fun of himself.
However, the information Ming sold to him was very detailed, and even included some recent actions and plans of Marks of the Gods and Fantasy in Dreams. Originally, he was just planning for a rainy day and thought it would not be useful, but he didn't expect that due to a strange combination of circumstances, it could be used right now. superior.
Tata continued in a calm tone:
"Not long ago, the news about the obelisk inside the Traveler Swamp was widely circulated in the Gula area. Because of the rumored relationship with the elven secret treasure, it attracted close attention from the major forces in Gula City, and then a related map was on the market. Appeared, causing a serious conflict between the marks of the gods and the fantasy of dreams——"
"But wait a minute, Miss Tata, didn't Sister Sylvide say that the obelisk in Traveler Swamp is just fake news?" Tian Lan interrupted and asked.
"That was indeed a fake news, and the map was not real. It seemed to be settled afterwards, but the contradiction between the marks of the gods and the fantasy of dreams deepened." Luo Hao had heard of this matter. After all, at the moment One of the hottest news in Kaolin-Ithurian is related to the Elf Holy Grail. This rumor has been circulating in the North for more than a year.
Tata nodded, "Mr. Knight asked Nini to sneak into the team with the mark of the gods, and the forged diary he put down was related to that map. Dreamland Fantasy suffered a big loss in this matter. , of course they won’t give up, so they joined forces with the Dimensional Sword people to appear in this place——”
Ai Xiaoxiao seemed to finally understand why they had come to this place in a big circle since leaving the hotel without entering the inner city.
She looked at Tang Xin beside her, blinked and asked, "But do they really believe that the diary is true, and don't have any doubt that the diary has a suspicious origin?"
Tang Xin sighed: "My brother also wrote some things about Fenris on it."
Ai Xiaoxiao suddenly realized that now the whole world knew that there was an obelisk under Fenris that had sunk into the abyss, but the only person who knew the content on it was their captain.
Everyone knows that the hero who saved Fenris disappeared under the abyss. Naturally, there is no doubt that the information about the spiers below Fenris recorded in a seemingly ancient log will come from the hands of thoughtful people - they At most, I would doubt the authenticity of this log.
But the content in the log couldn't be more real. Although it is not the map itself on the obelisk, the details and text description on the obelisk are not false at all.
"My eldest cousin is so insidious." Ai Xiaoxiao took a breath of air.
"The people from Dream Fantasy and Dimension Sword have already entered, but it seems that they are unwilling to fight directly with the people from Mark of the Gods. After all, they have not read the diary itself, and they seem to still have some doubts about this matter. ," Tianlan couldn't help but ask: "If they can't fight, what will we do?"
Sylvide gently put Tata and Nini on her shoulders, smiled and replied: "This is exactly why we are here."
"Miss Sylvide, are we going to disguise ourselves as two parties and sow discord?"
Ai Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up when she heard this. She was just a weak and helpless little ranger, and she had no fighting ability. Of course, she could only maintain her adventurous life by doing mischief behind the scenes.
But the ship officer lady still smiled and shook her head: "Yes and no, we don't pretend to be any of them, those people are not that stupid."
"Ah?" Ai Xiaoxiao was stunned: "Then who are we going to pretend to be?"
Tian Lan reacted immediately and said in surprise: "Ah, I know."
This caused everyone to look in her direction.
…
"As for the stance of the Super Competitive Alliance, they are your people after all, so how do I know?"
Facing Fang Plov's question, Elf Yez Leonard looked at everyone and said quietly: "Honestly, I don't know how many of them have contact with us. I'm just one I'm just the patriarch of the diocese, and I don't have the authority to understand these things. I can help you identify a few traitors, but that won't be of any help to you."
Fang Yu looked at the man who suddenly calmed down and said, "Are you trying to make fun of us by saying this? Do you really think we don't dare to kill you?"
"No, no, no," Elf Yez Leonard shook his head: "If I wasn't afraid of death, I wouldn't have told you so much, but I can only tell you what I know, and you can kill the others." I can’t even tell you.”
"Then you are useless."
Kweed, who had been silent all this time, suddenly drew his giant sword from behind and pointed it at the Patriarch of the Altori diocese, "If you have any last words, you can say them."
"Wait a minute," Elf Yez Leonard quickly raised his hand, "I don't know much, but I don't know everything. Although I can't identify everyone, I know your super skills." There’s always been a one-way connection between the Athletic League and us.”
"Single-line contact," Fang Yu was startled: "What does that mean?"
"That is to say, there is a general person in charge among you. It is through this general person in charge that our Holy Son gets in touch with the Super Sports League," Elf Yez Leonard thought for a moment and replied: " It’s just that I don’t know much about the general person in charge, I only know that he has certain connections with an organization called the Tenjin Society.”
God meeting?
Fang Yu couldn't help but look back at Hongye and others, but everyone looked a little confused, obviously they had never heard of this term.
"What else do you know?" He looked at Elf Yez Leonard and asked, "Are the descendants of Flore related to you?"
"There are some, but not many," Elf Yez Leonard replied: "The Eternal Ones have used the promise of eternal life to confuse some of their senior officials, but their relationship with us is far from Far less than what we have with the Super Competitive League.”
Fang Yu didn't speak, but this was generally in line with his guess. Compared to the Super Competitive League, the descendants of Flor were more crowded and cluttered. If the dark believers want to collude with the descendants of Flor, they can only take the high-level route, and they may even be just a few people in the upper echelons of the alliance.
But Hongye on the side didn't believe that: "Eternal life?" She sneered, "No one really believes in this, right? What's the point of eternal life in this world? It's reasonable to say that the aboriginal people may be bewitched. , but how could you deceive the Chosen One?"
Elf Yates Leonard looked at the little girl and smiled: "That's just what you think. You have no understanding of the world at all."
"What did you say!?" Hongye suddenly raised his eyebrows.
But Fang Yu reached out to stop Hong Ye, and at the same time gave her a wink, signaling her not to be led astray by the guy in front of her.
He pulled Hongye back, then looked at the Patriarch calmly, and then said: "I won't know anything less than you do, so don't play tricks in front of us. Regarding the person in charge, you What else do you know?”
Elf Yez Leonard glanced at him silently, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "...I know that he may not be an official of the Super Sports League. He has been in this world for a long time. ...Furthermore, he is also somewhat related to the cause of the Battle of Bain fourteen years ago..."
Elf Yates Leonard's dark green eyes flashed with an imperceptible light, "Besides, he seems to know you. Why do you think you can come to this place?"
Fang Yu was slightly startled, frowning and staring at the other party: "What did you say?"
"He knows you," Elf Yez Leonard replied: "And he was the one who guided you to this place in Gray Owl Town. I guess you must have noticed something is wrong."
Fang Yu couldn't help but turn around and look at each other with Saya, his mind was shaken.
However, at this moment, the Patriarch from Altori Diocese seemed to have finally seized the long-awaited opportunity. He took advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned, suddenly burst out, and broke away from Blackbo's shackles. , and pounced on the red leaves in front.
Hongye is just an alchemist. Although he is a combat craftsman, he is not good at close combat. When he saw someone rushing towards him, he stepped back as if it was an instinctive reaction.
But as soon as she retreated, she reacted badly. Elf Yates Leonard, who was tightly tied with ropes, passed her by and fell face down towards the rock steps.
After a muffled sound, blood immediately gurgled out from under his head, and dark red blood flowed down the stairs one step after another.
Fang Plover took a step forward and pulled the patriarch up, turning him over. He saw a deep gap in his forehead with visible bones, like an open mouth, with flesh and blood curling outward.
And Elf Yates Leonard's eyes turned white and he was already dying.
He silently threw the opponent's body to the ground, and could only sigh in his heart. Each of these fanatic believers was really tougher than the last one. Although Aitalia could be resurrected after death, there is no way for people who don't have any courage to die in this way. Dare to try.
"Ed," Hongye looked at them a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry...I..."
"It doesn't matter," Fang Yu shook his head. He had already got the information he wanted. It didn't matter whether the other party was dead or alive. He didn't expect these dark believers to really be of the same mind as them.
I have gained enough from this trip.
…
Bewitched”
