Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

The angels were all stunned by this scene, standing there looking at Mei Danzuo in the sky, although they did not fully understand the meaning of "examination of destiny, judgment of the end", but they also knew that this was The ultimate test of mortal detachment from eternal life, for which these angels are longing and fearful.

Fortunately to be guided by a god, who does n’t aspire to be a god? But on the other hand, they reached the ninth level of achievement of the original power, as if they had an endless life in the world. Once this final test comes, it is likely to die. So the gods saw this scene with their own eyes, and the shock of the soul was beyond description. They almost forgot where they were.

The breath of terror filled in the grey vortex, even the gods could not be approached. They found that the gods on the top of the mountain were stunned and hurriedly drank in their souls: "Do not care about Mei Danzuo, chase Amon!"

At this opportunity, Amon has gone down the mountain. He is very clear about Mei Danzuo's situation. Whether it is to die or enter the kingdom of heaven, this disciple has escaped from the battle at this moment, and no one can help him. He didn't make sense to look here. He immediately formed a faint golden light through the dense forest and went straight to the foot of the mountain.

The gods made this happen, and continued to chase along the ridge array, and no one dared to stay away from each other. As a result of this delay, Amon had gone down the mountain and got out of the jungle. A farmhouse appeared along the gentle **** at the foot of the mountain. Houses and terraces were scattered in the forest, and there were some low bark of dogs and a quiet rural scene under the night.

Although this manor has no walls, Amon ’s induction seems to pass through the invisible boundary like the water surface. There is a large array of space magic here, but it does not include the meaning of attack and obstruction, just a stroke. Only. It is strange that once he entered here, his state of being locked by the detective magic disappeared inexplicably, that is to say, Amon had left the combat state and could step into the void at any time.

So it turns out! This should be Pythagoras Manor. Amon finally understood why Schrodinger reminded him of such a place, suggesting that he would go in this direction after leaving Delphi.

The chasing gods came to the invisible boundary and stopped, watching Ameng walking towards the farmstead, all showing a relieved expression. This seems to be a land where they can't enter. Not only can people not enter, but even detect magic arts can't spy.

The angels all breathed a sigh of relief, as if they could not have escaped into the Pythagoras manor, they would not have to chase their heads. The twenty-four **** envoys who lay in ambush had only eleven left here, and Mei Danzuo ushered in the final test. These **** envoys were already terrified and at the same time they felt that they were in a state of disappointment.

The high-altitude Jalena frowned deeply, and said with some impatience: "Amon entered the Pythagoras Manor! The Artemis traitor reminded him!"

Hermes sullenly said: "Zeus and Pythagoras have an agreement that the gods and gods cannot enter the Pythagoras manor, and Amon is a god, but he can leave the world from there at any time. , What should we do? "

Yalena pondered: "It doesn't look like Amon is going to leave, is he looking for Pythagoras? Even Pythagoras can't protect enemies of Olympus Amon has violated the cooperation agreement with Zeus and refused to negotiate new agreements, killing thirteen demi-gods in a row, the father of the gods should come forward and do something. "

......

The gray vortex on the top of the distant mountain appeared with black lightning. Although there was no noise, a terror that made the soul tremble inexplicably spread between heaven and earth. Many people in the farmhouse awakened from their dreams Get up and walk out the door to look at the sky above the distant mountain.

Amon is also courageous enough, he did not take this opportunity to step into the void, but turned his back and looked at Mei Danzuo in the distance. When the starry sky finally flashed on the sky again, the gray vortex slowly closed away, wrapped in the shape of Mei Danzuo and entered Unliving and Unying's eternity. Mei Danzuo was not badly injured, but finally passed the test, and Amon also breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to continue to the farm.

At this time, it is obvious that this manor is unusual. The residents of the manor are all dressed as ordinary farmers. Although their expressions are shocked, the response is not flustered, and they are not running around. Standing in front of the door and watching, occasionally whispering a whisper. After the gray vortex disappeared into the sky, these people closed the door and went back to sleep, ignoring Amon who had entered here and stood on the road.

Amon knew that the gods in the sky had not gone yet, but he did n’t know why the gods and gods of Olympus could not enter here? He was even more curious about the person Pythagoras. Since Schrödinger directed him to come here, he certainly wanted to meet this person. He was just looking for someone to ask, but he saw the farmers were shut down and went home to sleep. He, a stranger who "breaks in" late at night, seemed to turn a blind eye.

In the middle of the night, the first time I came to this mysterious Pythagoras manor, it was not good for door-to-door knocking on the door to disturb people's dreams. Amon continued to walk deep into the manor. This is not the same as an ordinary village. The usual village houses are basically gathered together. The residents are rich and poor, and the courtyards are not the same. However, the houses here are scattered, and there is no obvious good. Bad.

Amon looked around, but he didn't find the mansion that looked like the manor, but he saw a person in front of him who hadn't entered the house yet, still standing outside and looking at him. Finally, I could ask someone to ask, so he quickly stepped forward.

The light is very dark, but with Amun ’s eyesight he can still see the person ’s description. He could n’t help but stunned. He was going to ask, “Is this the Pythagoras Manor? How can I see this place? 'S master? "But when he came near and spoke, it became:" Mr. Pythagoras, why are you standing here? "

In front of him is a middle-aged man of medium build, wearing bare feet wearing a robe, with a long beard, a thick beard that hangs down to his chest, long hair curled up like a turban, and a high nose bridge and brow bone The deep eyes are like the starlight in the night. Amon has never seen Pythagoras, why can he recognize him at a glance? Because Aesop has seen it.

The soul came to heaven, not the living creatures, but the impression of this world. The so-called heaven is the underworld created by Amon, and the soul that attracted Aesop will naturally understand everything Aesop knows. . Compared to mortals, gods like Amun are almost omniscient.

Aesop had seen Pythagoras in his youth, and there were scenes in his soul imprints that Amon could naturally recognize when he saw this person again. What surprised Amon was that after many years, Pythagoras almost looked the same, what Aesop looked like when he saw him, and what it is now, only with hair and beard.

And Pythagoras replied: "I am waiting for you to ask for directions, Amon, since you have gotten rid of chasing soldiers, why didn't you go?"

Amon: "Since I came here, of course I want to visit you. I was planning to find someone to ask about your residence. I went to the door after dawn to see you. I did n’t expect to meet you directly .... I just felt weird, Olin Why can't the gods of Pease enter this manor? "

Pythagoras smiled: "I have an agreement with Zeus that the gods of Olympus and their envoys cannot enter this manor. ... But I cannot protect the enemies of the gods here. I know what you did just now, if you stay here, Zeus himself will find it sooner or later. You come to me, and I want to see you, let ’s talk before Zeus arrives. "

Pythagoras opened the door and asked Amon to enter the house, and said, "I didn't have a rest today, I was here waiting for you, and you came."

This room is very common, but after entering the door, I found it very mysterious. The space is much larger than the outside. It is a hall that can accommodate dozens of people, but the interior is empty without any furnishings, walls and The ground is very clean. There was a curtain on the other side of the hall. There were two people standing beside the curtain. Pythagoras led Amon through the hall and the two of them lifted the curtain.

Behind the curtain is an ordinary wooden table with stools beside it, and there is only an unlit oil lamp on the table. Pythagoras crossed the curtain and came to the table and said, "Maggus, Enx, please go out and guard outside. Later, an angry person will come to visit. Let us know first, don't Let him break in to disturb my conversation with guests. "

Although there is no introduction, when Amon walked through the hall, he sensed the breath left by many people here, and he invisibly launched a retrospective divine technique, and also got a general understanding of the situation here.

The Pythagoras Manor is a world different from the outside. The residents here are all members of a group. Joining this group requires swearing to observe the group's discipline and keep the group's secrets. This kind of mortal swearing is different from the oath of the gods or spirits joining a **** department, it is just a member's self-discipline. This group also has various disciplinary regulations, some of which have far-reaching meanings, and some that seem to be mysterious but have no substantive meaning.

The members here have equal status regardless of the status of men and women, and there is no difference between nobles, civilians, and slaves. The means of production of the manor are public and everyone needs to participate in labor. They are a group with common philosophical beliefs and research ideals, and they have very high demands on their members. They cannot join if they want to join.

Want to become a member of this group, through inspection and testing, first of all to see whether the faith is firm, have a certain theoretical level, and finally through a "spiritual purification" ceremony to become a formal member.

This kind of "purification of the soul" ritual is very similar to the power of awakening the source in Amon's eyes, but it has unique requirements for the members' philosophical beliefs and ways of looking at the world. Some people awakened the power of the source in the ceremony, while others did not awaken the power of the source but passed the ritual.

How to say, for example, Aesop ’s life did not awaken the power of the original source, and he did not possess magical powers such as divine and physical skills, but with Amon ’s feeling, if Aesop could get the group ’s Guide, it is not difficult to pass this "purification of the soul" ceremony. Nominally the members of this group are Pythagoras' disciples, but it is not easy to see Pythagoras directly like Amon.

Become an official member of the group, you can listen to Pythagoras ’s knowledge through the curtain, the place is in this hall; after several years of hard work, when various qualities reach a considerable level, they can See Pythagoras himself. And such a person, with Amon's understanding, is at least a great achiever in heart inspiration.

Interestingly, Pythagoras also worked with other people in this manor on weekdays, but those who could not see him could not see him.

And the two people who just picked the curtain in the house should belong to the disciples who are highly accomplished. They learn and inherit the knowledge and ideas of Pythagoras, and they have their own insights and interpretations. Golas directly communicated, conducted various discussions and questioned. The Copernicus that Aesop had seen, because he had touched the **** stone many times, his fingers had been recorded as negative numbers. He was a slave outside, but his achievements in the manor were also quite high, otherwise it would not be possible Dagoras accompanied him when he went out.

Through the hall, Amon learned so many things through breath sensing, and couldn't help but wonder more about Pythagoras' identity and origin. And Pythagoras greeted: "Amon, please sit down! The last time a guest sat here, it was a long time ago."

Amon sat down and said, "Who is the guest who sat here last time?"

Pythagoras replied: "His name is Plato, you should have heard of it, and also know his student Aristotle. After his teacher Socrates died, Plato came here to visit me and discuss him with me "Ideal Country" to be written. Although he is not a member here, he is also regarded as my student. "

The sage reached out and lit up the oil lamp on the table, inadvertently showing the arm in the robe sleeve. Amon suddenly changed his face and couldn't help but stood up and said: "You, you, is that God of Creation in the legend of Heaton ... Prometheus!"

I saw Pythagoras wearing an iron ring on his left arm, with a broken chain on it, and a stone locked at the end. It looks like a decorative bracelet, but the stone is only the size of a fingernail, just a very ordinary gray mountain stone. This sage has no extra decoration on his body, why would he wear such a strange bracelet? Amon couldn't help but think of the drama "Prometheus" that he had seen in Jalen.

In that drama, Prometheus is an ancient deity of the Olympus, and the legends of the world even suggest that he is a creation god. The deity clashed with Zeus and brought the fire to human beings. In Amon's view, the fire in the drama is actually a metaphor, alluding to the path of transcending eternal life. RO
