Gamers Are Fierce Chapter 593: Styx
Contrary to imagination, the Styx does not have countless skulls floating on the river,
Nor are there any hopeless spirits flooding the river,
It's just an unremarkable river.
The river is wide, the water waves are calm, and the water flow is dark gray and black. Although it is not clear how deep the river is, it always gives people a feeling that "if you fall, you will never be able to float up".
"This is the River Styx."
Fury strode in front of Meteor, came to the river bank, bowed down, picked up a handful of river water, and washed his hands.
"The water of the Styx is formed by the tears of criminals serving hard labor in hell. It should be a mysterious substance of extremely high quality."
The witch raised her eyebrows, "Ask him what he's doing?"
"Uh..."
The mule asked cautiously, "Mr. Fury, I remember that the Styx was formed by the tears of the soul?
Can this water be used to wash hands? "
"Of course I can."
Fury stood up, shook his hands, and said as a matter of course: "The saying that Styx is formed by the accumulation of tears is artificial.
You think how many tears it takes to have a river,
Even if all the human souls from ancient times to the present are piled up and watched together, they will not be able to save it, let alone some of the human souls are hard-hearted. "
The mule asked, "Then the water is..."
"Water leaking from the ceiling,"
Frey said calmly: "The top of Paradise Mountain can communicate with the real world,
The five dinosaur kings 60 million years ago,
A spring was dug out in the sky, borrowed seawater from the Pacific Ocean in the real world, and formed the Styx River around the underworld to provide living and production water for all living beings in the underworld.
Because of the subtle differences between the planes, the water in the underworld is indeed much lighter than the earth, and some unidentified souls rashly set foot in it, and it is easy to sink.
In the long run, the river has been drifting with horror and whine. "
"Wail?"
The mule listened for a while, but did not hear any wailing, and wondered: "Why not..."
"That's because the River Styx has been ruled."
Fury shrugged and said, "Decades ago, this was a dirty river. The water was extremely eutrophic, and there were half-dead souls floating around.
The stump and the broken arm caused by the war,
And the waste from unscrupulous factories upstream and downstream.
The wailing is endless, the stench is overwhelming, suffocating,
In the end, even the warlords in the upper and lower reaches of the Styx couldn't bear it, so a temporary truce,
Introduced dozens of aboleths from the Underdark of Purgatory, put them into the Styx, and made them eat garbage - they can digest anything in the world,
The water quality of the Styx gradually improved. "
Looking at the sparkling river, Fury said sincerely, "Golden mountains and silver mountains are not as good as green waters and green mountains."
"...why does this sentence sound like a recipe for getting rich?"
Black Trojan couldn't help but complain.
"The real problem should be that even the underworld has to face severe environmental governance issues."
Li Ang said calmly: "It's really realistic."
It's a pity that he is in a projection state at the moment, otherwise he would have to find a way to get a few so-called aboleths from the river to take a look.
This is a mythical-level scripted world. There are many good things, but I can't take any of them away.
The mule pretended not to hear his companion's complaints, and hesitantly asked Fury, "Uh, so are we going to cross the river?"
"Well~IndoMTL.com~ The bald black man nodded and said: "Normally speaking, all biological souls, including humans, will be based on their species and location during their lifetime.
Assigned to a different city gate—the one we just crossed,
They had to go through long queues, waiting for the ferryman of the Styx.
However, since you are a noble lawyer who has never been seen in a thousand years, we have specially cleared a VIP channel to greet you.
If you go through the normal city gate, there should be screaming human souls everywhere along the way. "
Frey paused and added: "Pride, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony, jade hope,
The souls who were very thoughtful during their lifetime will change into all kinds of strange appearances in the underworld world,
I don't think you'd want to see those monstrous monsters. "
"..."
The mule smacked its mouth and asked hesitantly, "Then you and I, Mr. Fury, were people who had no hope in life?"
"Haha, not necessarily."
A bright smile appeared on Fury's face, "Some of the deformed features of the soul are not revealed on the outside,
Other spirits who spend enough time in the underworld can also learn to hide their deformed appearance.
As a saint, you must be fine,
As for me...
I guess I also had some kind of strong long-cherished wish before I was alive, but it was so long since I died that I even forgot what the long-cherished wish was. "
Fury shook his head regretfully and looked towards the river, "Well... count the time, Charon should be coming soon."
