"To be honest, I doubt we can get out." Doug clasped his hands behind his head and strode forward, as if there was no danger at all.
Austin was a little tired, so he simply let Doug take control of his body. Anyway, with his sense of danger, he was more suitable for this kind of place that needed to be explored.
"It must be possible." Beowulf has recovered his language skills and can now speak fluently.
"How long have you been trapped here?" Seeing Beowulf answer him, Doug started to chat with him.
"It's been too long, I don't remember." Beowulf shook his head and asked, "How long has it been since the Second War of Gods ended?"
"God War?" Doug thought for a while and replied, "I don't know. God War now only exists in the legend of the church. I don't know how long it has been."
"Church?" Beowulf was a little surprised, "Does the church still exist now?"
Doug sneered and said mockingly: "Of course, although the seven righteous gods are basically asleep, their believers are very busy."
"It has been so long. I originally thought that the church would all disappear." Beowulf sighed with disappointment in his tone.
After taking the oath, he was no longer as violent as before. He was more like an old man who had lived in seclusion for many years and had no interest in world affairs. Anyway, he was idle, and Doug was happy to chat with him.
"Aren't you a believer of Poseidon? Why do you feel that you want the church to end soon?" Doug was very confused. He thought that Beowulf, who participated in the war between gods, was a fanatical believer of Poseidon, and would be tried for heresy if he disagreed with him.
Beowulf replied solemnly: "I believe in Poseidon, not the church that has lost its ideals and only cares about the common people and is lost in the whirlpool of worldly desires. They are the biggest heretics."
"Awesome, I admire you."
Doug was in awe and gave this big brother a thumbs up in his heart. It is already well known to the world that the church is tainted with the secular world, but they hold the channels of communication with gods and the ability to create those favored by gods, so their status is difficult to shake. Doug also dislikes the church a little, but after all, he is a member of Poseidon in name only, so he can only express his understanding of Beowulf's theory.
Beowulf heard his hidden thoughts and said coldly: "The fist will only hurt when it hits yourself."
Doug shrugged. He was now the favored one of the evil god. He was already in danger and had no time to take care of these messy things.
"Then you may be disappointed when you go out. In many countries, the church is quite powerful. For example, in Meletni, the king's coronation even requires the approval of the pope."
"Are you from Meletni?" Beowulf was a little surprised.
"Hmm, why, you too?"
"Yes, I remember that I am from the Kingdom of Meletni..." Beowulf suddenly stopped mid-sentence, "I don't remember."
He seemed a little annoyed, but he quickly put it behind him: "How is the Kingdom of Meletni now?"
"Fortunately, we are at war with Orista." Doug made a joke here. "Maybe when we get out, we will say with emotion: 'Wow! The war is actually over!' Maybe."
Beowulf said no more, seeming to be digesting the information in Doug's words.
"Hey, wait until you get out and get used to it slowly. The feeling of spanning a thousand years will be amazing." Doug made himself laugh. "As for now, why don't you tell me about the battle between gods? I'm quite impressed." Interested."
"What do you want to hear?" He hadn't communicated with other people for many years, and Beowulf was happy to talk more.
"Let's talk about the two sides in this divine battle? Who fought with whom?" He wanted to know who else participated in this divine battle besides Poseidon and Death Tide.
"The seven righteous gods and seven outer gods have all ended, as well as some mortal leaders."
This was the first time Doug heard the term "mortal leaders" and he was a little surprised: "Mortal leaders? Isn't there this concept in current legends? Are they the saints canonized by various churches?"
"No, although mortal leaders also have faith, they only fight for mortals."
Doug frowned: "These records may be lost, please tell me."
Beowulf felt regretful and angry at the treatment of mortal leaders in later generations, and sighed several times in succession.
After he calmed down, he said, "I don't remember much about the other people. Let me tell you about the one who led me in the battle."
Doug's ears perked up, his expression focused.
"His name is Austin -" After saying this, he seemed to be stunned for a moment, "Austin Doug, it seems that he has the same name as you."
The Dougs were stunned and quickly called Austin to come out and watch.
"What did he do? Before he became your leader?" A very nonsense idea suddenly appeared in Doug's mind, so he asked tentatively.
"He previously served in the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of Meletni. It is said that he is the son of a legendary pirate and inherited his father's ghost ship——"
"Stop-" Doug's mind was completely confused, he called Beowulf to stop, and he also stopped where he was.
"What's wrong?" The latter was very puzzled.
Austin, who roughly understood the whole story, said quietly: [The Austin Doug you are talking about is most likely me. ]
"Such a joke is not funny." Beowulf said sullenly.
Doug's voice was trembling: "Is the ghost ship he inherited called the Betrayal Mariano? Are there Oliver, Martin, Henry, and Muffy among the people fighting with you? They were once Austin's men, the first The first time we worked together was on the Lion in August.”
This time it was Beowulf's turn to be silent.
"Oliver has a burn scar on the back of his neck, which looks like fish skin, so his nickname is Fish Skin. The guy named Henry is a reformer. He talks a lot and can twist off his own head and play it as a ball. Martin has The eyeball is fake and he often pulls it out."
Beowulf was completely shocked. If the previous ones might be recorded in history books, then only the people who worked with him might know about the later more personal ones.
"Could it be that-" Beowulf also thought of that possibility.
Doug sat down on the ground and wailed: "Damn it, I traveled through time!"
Subsequently, based on Beowulf's description, Doug and Austin can roughly determine that they have traveled to the future after the Second God War an unknown number of years. They are both more ancient than Beowulf.
"No, what about the legend of Beowulf? How to explain this?" Doug had a flash of inspiration and grabbed the life-saving straw.
"Legend has it that the famous hero Beowulf is not an ordinary person, but traveled from the future to the past through the Sands of Time." Benjamin said, "But these are just legends. No one can come back, and no one can Confirmed.”
