Winter, Executive Officer...
In the previous game plots, these two words did not appear frequently. The one that really always appeared in the players' vision as the villain was the line of Falling into the Abyss.
But now it seems that there may be another big hand that the players are unaware of behind the falling events that have brought disaster to various countries, quietly promoting them.
Even though the information revealed by "Ms." was not much and was blocked by the Snow Queen, Liao Zixuan still captured a lot of key information from just a few words.
The first is their connection with Fallen Abyss.
Judging from the lady's description, she mentioned that the main purpose of crashing the Astorogis into the Yamata no Orochi was to catalyze the process of "falling into the abyss" of this forbidden monster, and at the end she mentioned "collecting data".
In fact, Liao Zixuan has been a little strange since he was in Yanyu. The shadows of Fallen Abyss and Winter can actually appear on Count Sisier at the same time. Is there any connection between the two?
Now it can be preliminarily confirmed that at least the Snow Queen in Winter is likely to have noticed the existence of "Falling Abyss" a long time ago, and has even begun to study "Falling Abyss".
In the Flame Territory, it was Earl Thistle who was infected by the Fallen Abyss, and in Thousand Islands, it was the Yamata no Orochi who was eroded by the Fallen Abyss.
Here Liao Zixuan couldn't help but recall again what the definition of "fallen into the abyss" is in the game "Falling God". He remembered the official setting that the falling into the abyss is a kind of creature that does not exist in this world and invades from the outside. The power of evil comes from the negative emotions of the creatures on the mainland.
If there was no cold winter, Liao Zixuan might not have connected "falling into the abyss" with "witch", but now he suddenly compared them together and found that there are indeed similarities between the two, both of which use "negative emotions" as a The foundation of strength belongs to the evil camp.
So, could it be that, in Ankou, the mysterious organization established by the "doctor" to study witches wants to use the power of the Fallen Abyss to become a way to realize "artificial witches"?
As for why this crazy behavior was not stopped, but also got the acquiescence and support of the Ice Queen, the Ice God. The key reason is most likely what the "Ms." mentioned at the end, the Ice God wanted to fight thing.
Everyone knows that when facing a powerful enemy that is a matter of life and death, the best method is to use whatever means necessary.
Liao Zixuan felt a pity that he could not know what the "object of confrontation" was.
But thinking about it on the other hand, the more you know, the more dangerous it may be. This kind of unknown existence that even "gods" have to fight against at all costs is obviously not something they can contact now.
The fate of the lady who was one of the executive officers is the best proof that she was killed coldly and without hesitation.
Tsk.
After sorting out all the information in his mind, the little wolf cub couldn't help but sigh.
As a "player" at the beginning, he was like a candidate sitting in the examination room, solving the questions step by step under the designed test paper.
And now as the "Dark Flame Wolf", he has changed from a candidate to a question maker.
What will this test paper look like in the future...
He and the little girl around him may not be able to completely decide, but they can definitely become participants in the key issues.
However, he believes that no matter how difficult the questions they give, tens of millions of players can help them solve them easily. This is the power of the Fourth Natural Disaster and the decisive advantage why they can rise from the grassroots.
Of course, there are still more than three weeks left before the open beta server opens, so they can't point to these "warriors" for the time being and have to rely on their own for a while.
The number one problem that Liao Zixuan needs to solve now is the one he will encounter tomorrow, Yamata no Orochi.
The hidden danger in Luzi's body has been eliminated. An shook her awake and told her what had just happened.
At first Luzi didn't believe it, but later, when Vivian also came forward and used the in-game recording function of Little Wolf Cub, which in reality is similar to the magic of recording images, and after showing Luzi the whole process, the Sakai family The political affairs officer finally believed it, and it turned out that the ghost was himself.
"I'm really sorry!"
In front of the two girls, Luko immediately made exactly the same apology as the previous overseer samurai, which was the highest standard of apology etiquette in Qiandao. She knelt down and put her head close to the ground.
After being helped up quickly, Luzi also knew that now was not the time to apologize. The situation was urgent. She first recalled where she was controlled by hypnosis.
Almost a few minutes later, Luzi found the most likely location from her memory. It was a week ago when she went to Dazou as a routine practice to hand over paperwork related to the ongoing "Sorcerer Election."
But there was a little hiccup in the middle. Luzi remembered that in addition to her colleagues who met Da Zu, there was also another foreigner in the cold winter. It was clear that a foreigner appeared at the core of her own power organization. Such a questionable thing , she actually forgot about it at that time, and only suddenly remembered it today.
Obviously, from then on, she had been given hints.
Moreover, Luko further deduced that the expression on her face became more and more serious, because the lady mentioned before that overthrowing the Sakai family, who were the followers of the society, was also one of the goals, and said that in this way, she could control the second of the three followers.
From this point of view, Zengxing, who has been secretly manipulated, is undoubtedly Dazu Zengxing. For Luzi, this is nothing less than a bolt from the blue.
When An didn't know much about it and asked what Da Zuo's practice was, Luzi replied:
"Dazu pursues the military power of Thousand Islands, and is the main force and executor who advocates the implementation of the "divine witch election". No wonder they will target Baqi..."
"Wait a minute, Miss Luzi, is this also related to the forbidden monster in the sea?"
Luzi nodded. Since she was going to face Yamata no Orochi in the future, it was necessary for her to briefly tell Vivian and An about the origin of the Orochi. It might be helpful later.
"The two of you who are not natives of Qiandao naturally don't understand that every ten years a witch election is held in Qiandao. The girls with the potential of witches who have been selected by "gods" in the entire Thousand Islands will compete together for selection. In the end, A divine shaman was born, entered the deep sea, and was sacrificed to the Yamata no Orochi."
"This...I don't quite understand why humans are sacrificed to...monsters?" Vivian was the first to feel a little unacceptable about this.
But Luzi shook her head.
"The sacrifices we have here do not mean sacrifices. If we really talk about this matter, it will involve the history of Thousand Islands."
"Both of you should know that before the Age of Nine Gods, order had not yet been established and the world was still in chaos and war. Ordinary people at that time had to rely on powerful beings if they wanted to live. Baqi The big snake was the first patron god of the people of Thousand Islands at that time."
"But then, with the rise of the Nine Gods and the advent of a new era, a country cannot have two gods. Even if the Water God didn't mind, the pride of the Orochi didn't allow it, so it took the initiative to launch a war against the Water God."
"In the end, the Orochi was naturally defeated, but the Lord Water God was kind and did not kill the Orochi. Instead, he made an agreement with the Orochi, allowing the Orochi to take the people who were still willing to follow it and sink into the deep sea. Legend has it that in There is a sea eye there that connects to the evil world, and its name is the Abyssal Sea."
"The condition for the big snake and its descendants to survive as the defeated ones is to guard the Abyssal Sea from generation to generation to prevent evil spirits from pouring out from the eyes of the Abyssal Sea and harming Thousand Islands."
As an official of the Society, Luzi is extremely familiar with the culture of Qiandao, because the Society is responsible for sacrifices and ceremonies.
Although a small part of it already belonged to internal documents, but at this time, Luzi made no reservations and tried her best to use short and clear language, hoping to quickly let the two people in front of her get more information.
Because she knew that only in this way, she might be able to win a glimmer of hope in the subsequent shipwreck.
"As for the election of witches, under the new era concept advocated by Da Zu, it is regarded as an inspection system. The selected witches are sent to the Water God Temple in Yuanhai to determine whether the big snake and the Are its descendants continuing to fulfill their promises, and are they continuing to guard Yuanhai?"
"Of course, our society has always been opposed to this, because in our eyes, the election of the divine witch is more like a consolation, telling the big snake and its descendants, as well as the first batch of people who followed the big snake into the abyss, are now being We call them the remnants of Yuanhai, they have not been forgotten, the people of Water God and Thousand Islands still remember them."
After listening to the history of the "Witch Election", the little wolf cub suddenly thought that in the "third" experience, there had been an old Thousand Island warrior on the ship, and the violent snake had also been emphasizing the election of the Witch, calling it As an inducement, the words resistance and disrespect were also mentioned many times.
Looking at it now, the older generation of samurai should be more inclined to the concept of "social practice" and have awe of the Yamata no Orochi. But why did the concept pursued by Daizu later become the mainstream and even appeared? A situation where a miko escapes?
Without letting the little wolf cub wait too long, Luzi finished telling the general history and began to return to the current situation with a heavy face.
"But in recent years, among the people of Thousand Islands, more and more people have begun to oppose the election of witches. The reason is that all the witches who entered the Abyss...have never returned."
"At first they were able to suppress it, but as time went on, people began to question whether the big snake had betrayed its promise and tore up the contract. Then wouldn't the selection of their divine witch be like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth and dying?"
"Because of this, the people of Qiandao began to have a sharp deterioration in their impression of Orochi, and they also boycotted the election of the witch. Originally, every family hoped that their daughter could be selected as a candidate for the witch. This is a way to honor the ancestors. Honor has evolved to this day, and everyone is afraid that their daughter will be chosen and taken away by the Great Zu, and become the food in the belly of the snake."
Hearing this, An couldn't help but immediately asked:
"What about the Water God? Such a big thing happened, didn't your Lord Water God come forward?"
Vivian also had the same doubts about this. Both of them were born in Yanyu.
Although in recent times, Vulcan Alice's series of actions have a bit of a stab at her people, but if you look at the entire time of the Flame Territory, the Vulcan is still very dedicated to his duties and protects the Flame Territory all the time. , as long as there is the slightest sign of trouble, it will be immediately strangled in the cradle.
So they couldn't understand why their gods were indifferent to the big commotion in Thousand Islands.
Luzi shook her head.
"You two don't know. The idea pursued by our Water God is destiny. In other words, all changes are guided by fate. As long as there are no variables other than fate, Lord Water God will not intervene."
"???"
Vivian and An both showed angry expressions. The two girls were surprisingly similar. They all puffed up their cheeks and clenched their fists. This sounded so irritating. It sounded like they were very high-minded, but in fact they were not. Is it equivalent to just destroying it?
Just like that, it’s really a shame for people’s trust and belief, isn’t it?
"Let me tell you two a little story. You should be able to understand Lord Water God. Many years ago, there was a war in Thousand Islands. At that time, a resistance force split from Dazu. It was fierce and fierce. We hit Da Zu Fengshui’s doorstep.”
"At that time, the head of the ruling family who was entrusted by Da Zu knelt and cried at the gate of Yueyuan Grand Shrine, praying that the Lord Water God inside could come forward, otherwise Thousand Islands would be occupied by the rebels, and the people of Thousand Islands were also struggling to survive due to the war. They also expressed their feelings to The rebels were very scared and thought they were all bandits who burned, killed and looted."
"But our Lord Water God still continued to stay behind closed doors. It was not until the head of the family was overthrown by the resistance forces that the truth of the matter was revealed to the public. It turned out that this family had long been rotten internally and extremely corrupt, but because of its Because he is proficient in publicity, he has not been discovered by the public, but has established a good image, and everyone has been kept in the dark."
"Since this incident happened, we have somewhat understood Lord Water God's philosophy, that is, it may seem bad, but it may lead to a good ending. If you intervene midway and forcibly change your destiny, it may cause unforeseen consequences. The tragedy of reversal.”
From Luzi's sincere eyes, it is not difficult to see that she really believes it.
Because of this, what she said next came out.
"Both of you, I believe in the fate of you and me, as well as the Astorogis, and every passenger on the ship. Lord Water God has arranged the fate for us, so there is no need to panic too much. I believe that just as I can be The two rescues are the same, everything is in the dark and determined by fate."
After Luzi said this, although it was supposed to be an encouragement, it meant that even if the opponent was Yamata no Orochi, miracles could still happen.
But the little wolf cub still gave a hard "poof" in his heart.
If fate is really arranged by the Water God, he, who has known the future for a long time, is very sure that the miracle did not happen, and their fate ends here, crashing into the deep sea together with the Astorogis.
If he hadn't gone through reincarnations again and again, where would Luzi be able to talk properly now? The lady would have continued to control her, and a teleportation magic would have escaped.
Another unreliable god!
Although he had this expectation in his heart, the little wolf cub was still depressed for a while.
He is a staunch believer in "fate".
If it is true, then he must hold his destiny in his own hands instead of being arranged by others!
If it is true, as Luzi said, that the crashed Astorogis was only a temporary "seeming" bad thing, the purpose is to lead to a greater good ending in the future, then the little wolf cub still cannot accept it.
He did not have the far-reaching vision of the Water God. He could only see the desperate faces of the passengers on the ship, heard the helpless cries of the passengers on the ship, and witnessed hundreds of people being buried in the deep sea.
He must change this ending.
As for what fate is in chaos, what will happen in the future...
Sorry, as a mortal, I have to be a little bit self-conscious.
Anyway, he only looked at what was in front of him.
Moreover, I don’t know if it was influenced by a certain little girl who did not want to be named, and she began to become... particularly reluctant to see the tragedy happen!
