Stray Chapter 190: The attitude and true purpose of the gods

"I don't know what they're talking about. In places like hotels and pubs, it's easy to get all kinds of information and clues, but they're not necessarily all valuable. It's a type of spam."

Di Kun sighed, then thought about it again and organized the language——

"Probably means that one of them saw a tall tower in the Genting District in the morning, when we came back, and the whole body was made of brass or gold... But it was gone in the blink of an eye. , only they see."

"They?"

"Oh, it's not just this person now, there are also some people who say that they have seen it, but the number is very small... It is difficult to determine whether they really saw something, or just spread the truth and said it themselves. I believe it."

Di Kun spread his hands and poured a glass of wine for Xia Ran: "Anyway, once this kind of clue appears, someone will always confirm it, and the result is that the tower they mentioned can't be found in the Genting District... ... a drink?"

"No thanks, I don't drink...but really can't find anything?"

Xia Ran waved her hand and directly rejected the other party's kindness, and continued to ask.

"I can't really find anything, I can't see it with the naked eye, I can't sense the breath, and I can't scan the mental power. There are also some technical houses that have used various instruments to measure the relevant parameters... Anyway, nothing was found. If you want to say that the golden tower of the brass tower really exists, it is probably the fire-breathing dragon in the garage."

Di Kun said with a low chuckle.

Xia Ran was thoughtful, he didn't think it was a false rumor, because at that time he also happened to see the tower where the truth of the world is embodied.

Perhaps something special happened during that time that made the tower appear for a brief moment from being hidden, and because not everyone stared at the Genting District all day long, So it is normal that there are fewer people who happened to see at that moment...

As for what happened to the tower, he couldn't tell, and he didn't think about it seriously. The level of that thing seemed to be ridiculously high. Although his intuition does not have any warning, it is very likely that in such a high-level matter, his intuition ability is powerless.

"Mage, how long will it take for the remaining potions to be completed?" Di Kun seemed to remember something and asked quickly. "How many are expected to be successful?"

"I have to make sure that I make it in the best state every day to maximize the success rate, so it's like one a day..." Xia Ran gave him a strange look, "I told you before, A core material can produce up to three pieces, even if all are successful, it will be three pieces."

“…”

“…”

"That... Mage, if possible, can you give us all the three potions? We will give you a satisfactory price." Di Kun smiled awkwardly. After hesitating for a while, he was still asked.

According to the previous agreement, if Xia Ran successfully produced three strengthening potions, one of them would be his reward. And if there are only two or less, they belong to the opposite side, and Xia Ran will get extra points and crystals as a reward.

And if they all fail, Xia Ran won't be able to get paid, but he doesn't need to pay anything. Instead, Di Kun and others bought the dragon's blood from him, and then gave him a waste of refining. .

Technology is so advantageous. After all, if there is no Xia Ran, these lost people don't even know the formula. If they want to get the blessing of the dragon slayer, they have to work hard to find the side quest of the blade warrior.

——Maybe they have to be asked to kill the High Roar Peak and kill Lao Pa, then they have to face a large group of Roar Masters above, and may even anger the last generation who is still running around in Skyrim. Dragonborn.

So they don't have many choices, and Xia Ran's performance makes them feel that as long as they and others are not particularly bad luck, it is basically impossible to encounter the worst situation, so they dare to gamble like this. .

But after getting the first potion, Di Kun found that the effect of this thing was even better than he expected, even for him, it still has obvious effect, it is worthy of a gold-level reinforcement Pharmacy.

If possible, he still hopes to take as many as possible.

Three potions are not enough for the people in the team. Tie King Kong has ordered one, and he is just right for one as an mt. Since Xisha has taken up another portion of dragon blood, she is not included in the potion this time. I don't know how to distribute...

Those who don't get the potion will have to compensate in other ways. The team's points and crystals will need to be tilted towards such people for a long period of time... So Dikun still hopes that such A person can be one less than one.

However, Xia Ran declined. He had no reason to give up, not to mention whether he could be sure that all three potions would be successful or not—

As a magician, he will not have special resources to invest in physical attributes, and there is no reason to give up such precious items that can directly help him strengthen these shortcomings.

……

……

That night.

"Speaking of which, ma'am, why would you want to do something like this?"

Xia Ran reappeared in that spiritual space, and studied hard with Teacher Demon God, and asked such a question by the way.

Man is a creature with strong adaptability, and the lost person is one of the best and the real leader. After all, the former may need to run around the world, while the latter needs to run around in different worlds, and the adaptability is not strong How could it be possible to survive?

So Xia Ran has long been accustomed to the painting style of Mephala's magic classroom. Although it is impossible for him to really regard Ms. Whispering as a tireless gardener and female teacher, he will not be trembling and atmosphere. They didn't dare to breathe, and dared not take the initiative to ask questions.

"What do you mean?" Mephala's voice sounded calmly, no longer low.

"You know what I'm referring to..." Xia Ran said helplessly, the other party didn't seem to want to talk about this topic?

“…”

“…”

"Do you know the origin of those who are different from us and called the Holy Spirit?" Mephala said suddenly after a short silence.

Xia Ran thought about it quickly, and then answered cautiously: "What I know is limited, and there are several different versions, the only one that is certain is that they were persuaded by Lockhan to participate in the creation of the world, and sacrificing myself..."

However, the process of creation also involved most of the existences involved in the whole process, directly cracking and dying, and turning into the cornerstone of the world "earth bones"...

And the remaining beings called "Holy Spirits" have to stop all activities in order to stabilize the world and fall into eternal sleep.

It is precisely because of this that the demon gods like Mephala are completely different. They did not participate in the creation of the world and retained their own integrity. They neither disintegrated death into bones, nor stopped all activities and fell into a deep sleep.

In the final analysis, they are no different from those Holy Spirits, they are all immortal existences, just the difference between whether they participated in the creation of the world-

The immortal beings who participated in the creation and paid the price are called "aedra", a word from the High Elvish language, meaning "our ancestors", meaning these revered Holy Spirits, The gods are the ancestors of all species.

The immortal existence that did not participate in the creation and retained its own integrity is called "daedra", which is also derived from the High Elvish language and means "not our ancestors".

——This is the difference between a **** and a demon.

"You're very accurate, so have you ever wondered why the Holy Spirit would do such a thing? Create the world and the mortal race at such a huge price?"

Mephala's tone seemed to have a hint of helplessness, and there seemed to be a hint of self-deprecation.

"Most of the Holy Spirits deceived by Lockhan died. Magnus fled before the world was created, and knocked out the big hole in the sun. Lockhan was dug out by other Holy Spirits. Stupid?"

"This..."

Xia Ran is also a little unsure. Of course, he doesn't think that this level of existence is stupid, and he doesn't have the confidence to be so arrogant.

"It's very simple, our entire universe is a dream of some primordial great being, Anu, the dream of the head of the gods. There was nothing in this dream at the beginning, only all kinds of absolute concepts, these The absolute concept is the gods of the present."

Mephala said lightly.

"But although the gods are immortal, they are also limited by the concept when they represent the concept, so it is impossible to transcend the dream of the head of the gods, and there will be nothing left when Anu wakes up."

"So they want to create the world and the mortal race. Although the world is fragile and mortals are perishable, all of this is the result of the concentrated expression of the concepts they represent. Both **** and spirit are free, so With the potential to transcend the dream of the head of God, this is the purpose of their creation."

Xia Ran suddenly understood that the fall at this time was just for the ascension at that time. Death is not an unacceptable state for those immortal beings, maybe it is like the phone is turned off.

Compared to doing nothing, when the original existence wakes up, they will not be able to leave anything for a moment, so it is better to fight.

It is no wonder that the Holy Spirit chooses to create the world, and although the devil did not embark on this path, he is also closely related to the world and often engages in wind and rain, probably all to find the possibility of detachment... It is no wonder Nairn would be called the Arena.

"So you understand? It's not just me, there are other beings who have taken certain actions after discovering you variables from outside the world... Although you do not belong to this world, but So what?"

Mephala laughed lowly.

"We can all satisfy the interests you want, because you have brought us more important things... You must think that the claims I promised you before are false, but what I said is true ."

Because everything in this world is of little significance to the demon gods. If there is no way to get out of the dream of the gods before Anu wakes up, everything they have will disappear in an instant, and nothing will remain. .

So after they discovered the variable of the lost, their first reaction was definitely not anger, and then mercilessly punished them, but responded with maximum tolerance... They silently observed, and then searched for suitable goals, make your own plans.

After all, although it is inconsistent with the results expected at the beginning, it is a clear possibility that can ensure that they will not dissipate with this world, no matter what.

Xia Ran doesn't know what to say either. It can only be a bit of an embarrassment. Although he doesn't feel that he is the only protagonist who has a destiny, Mephala has determined that people like him are less likely to speak. There are also double-digit starts—

There are even some demon gods who spread their investments and don't put their eggs in one basket, and Mephala doesn't know if that's the case.

"Then why are you looking for someone like me? I'm too weak to help you, ma'am?" He had another question.

"Because I don't believe in the superiors among you, their personalities are no less than ours, and because of their particularity, they can exert more terrifying power than us in the material world..."

Mephala said bluntly.

"There is such an existence in Xueman City, you can't detect his existence, but he seems to be trying to shake the cornerstone of the whole world. If you trade with such an existence, even I don't have any It's easier for you to control."

Xia Ran's face suddenly pulled down. Does this statement mean that he is easy to bully?

"Rather than thinking wildly, you might as well hurry up, I can see that there are still two or three months left, and the long river in the future will cause huge waves, and the things after that can no longer be seen clearly. There must be something important to do. It happened..."

Mephala didn't mean to comfort Xia Ran, but just told him that time was running out.
