The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 381: Chiron
After the mask was taken off, the image of "Mr. Kai" gradually began to disintegrate from his face.
Like pieces of fish scales being scraped off, the whole person was shattered from top to bottom and turned into nothingness. Even the hair and clothes disappeared completely, leaving no trace.
"ββIn terms of composition, he and I are indeed similar. We are both another person's [puppet]."
Another unfamiliar voice sounded from the other side of the room: "And I do have a little relationship with Professor Gray. So from this point of view, you did not find the wrong person."
The voice is completely different, but its tone is exactly the same as Mr. Kai's - both are gentle, low, slow and comfortable voices.
Salvatore followed the voice and looked over.
That was a strong male centaur.
Or...half a head.
Unlike female Centaurs, male Centaurs look more like horses than humans from the waist down. He has the four legs of a horse instead of a human, and the muscles on his body are like the most elite warrior - under the bronze skin, there are streamlined muscles that even give people a sense of beauty. It is not protruding to the point of deformity, and there is not a trace of fat visible.
But there's a problem.
That's this centaur, it seems like it's stuck in the wall... and it seems like it was knocked out of the wall.
His "horse limbs" are only the front pair.
About half of the horse's body was cut off by something unknown.
But if it is said to be "stuck on the wall", there is no trace at all on the other side of the wall.
The cross-section of the limbs was connected to a huge oil painting... He seemed to have jumped out of the painting.
"First meeting, Mr. Salvatore."
The horse man said slowly: "Introduce yourself.
"My real name is Chiron, and 'Kai' is the first syllable of my name. I'm not lying to you, I am indeed a Name Shaper...the reason why I can use prophetic school type spells.
"That's because... this is not a spell at all. It is my racial talent as a centaur. Rather, the prophetic spell was originally modeled on the talent of the centaurs - and the profession of Master Shaper, The original name is the 'taboo' among us horse people. This is a clan name and a heritage, not an extraordinary profession in the strict sense."
"...but I remember that centaurs who are born with the ability to use prophetic spells are no longer common."
Salvatore withdrew his shocked but not polite gaze and looked at the surrounding decorations instead of Chiron's severed body: "Excuse me...what era are you from?"
"Did you find out so soon?"
Chiron said gently: "I am indeed not one of those 'hermits' born in this era - this refers to those centaurs who were born in this era and have never seen anyone other than my own people. They can all be called 'Hermit', or 'Hermit'.
"Just like the elves possess the 'Silver Soul', they are born with condensed souls; and you Yasselan high race people also possess the talent of 'high-speed learning' and can quickly comprehend complex rituals and spells. .
"We centaurs naturally have racial abilities. We call them 'adaptability'.
"In the Second Age, the bodies of male centaurs were much thinner than mine, while the bodies of female centaurs were full of fat and extremely tall. This was for keeping warm, fighting, and better nurturing offspring. Males, on the other hand, can eat less food and are more agile.
"But after entering the living desert, the horse people's skin turned bronze, and an oily dura mater appeared on the epidermis. It can lower the body temperature, prevent water loss to the greatest extent, and the body size is greatly reduced, and at the same time, fat Increase... This is also to save food.
"When the centaurs entered the continent of Yasselan, where water and food were abundant, the centaurs' skin became white and soft, closer to the appearance of elves. The male centaurs quickly became stronger, while the female centaurs Then they become heroic, and then every horseman is a god-like warrior.
"According to their respective 'tribe names', some centaurs are good at fighting, and some are good at leading others. Some centaurs are good at using spells, and some are proficient in rituals - they are born with time, you will adjust your talents according to your name and 'needs'.
"In today's era, centaurs have become 'hermits' and need to avoid the eyes of people around them. Their size has further shrunk, and their appearance has become friendlier, cuter, and more similar to humans. β
Chiron said warmly: "This is the core talent of the centaurs, [Adaptability] - our mastery of prophetic magic is also born based on this talent.
"The ancient horse people were good at fighting, and were good at bow and spear. The 'precognition ability' at that time was obviously not the same type as the 'precognition ability' when rituals and spells were popular in our time. But modern horse people have The new one is different...
"Ah...I'm sorry, I'm guilty of teaching again. You don't want to know this, right?"
Chiron interrupted apologetically mid-sentence.
"Ah, it's okay."
Salvatore tilted his head and said hesitantly: "It's quite new. The knowledge of centaurs can hardly be found in books. Hearing this here can be regarded as a kind of knowledge. has been expanded."
"That's because of the [Destroy Records] spell. Before the 'hermit' decided to live in seclusion, he used this spell to delete all the books recording the centaurs' race information.
"Well...if I continue to tell you, I might not be able to finish it today. Let me tell you what you are curious about first."
Chiron said warmly: "If I'm not mistaken... you want to know ~IndoMTL.com~ my relationship with Professor Wolf, right?"
"Yes."
Salvatore said honestly: "From my nightmare, I saw how Professor Wolf affected the internal affairs of other countries. So I immediately thought of 'Mr. Kai'. He seemed to have some similarities with Professor Wolf, and Also very suspicious.
"I'm wondering if 'Mr. Kai' is also a doppelganger of Professor Gray, and the fact that he knew Henry VIII is false in itself - or full of conspiracy.
"If this is really the case, then the biggest obstacle to Her Majesty Kaifuni's succession is not the eldest princess or the third prince. It is the 'other carrier' of this 'Gray Professor', the tragedy writer in the shadows An outstretched hand."
"Your guess is partly correct. I do have some connection with 'Professor Gray' and 'Professor Wolf'. But you also guessed wrong - my relationship with them is deeper than you think. Weaker..."
"...Are you his teacher?"
Salvatore thought of the word "teaching disease" and asked curiously.
The centaur hanging outside the painting nodded gently: "It's a bit of a stretch. But I'm not Professor Gray's teacher.
"I am the **** he believes in - Sophocles, who was Dionysus' mentor back then."
