The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 31: The old man (part one)

"I don't understand, the first generation mentor." Jonah whispered, "You have reached the world above with all your strength, and you have done only this, chatting with the descendants like friends."

"You can put it like this." Gilberto Gilbernaion said leisurely: "Once I reach that world, I suddenly feel less angry. What if we know the truth? We are just a plaything of fate. That’s all, even if you surpass the limit, you still can’t escape the cold rules. If you have enough time to love, just stay with your sweetheart for a long time,,, that’s what I thought at the time..."

"You said, Anicia..."

"Oh, Anicia."

The expression of the first generation mentor was sweet and sad, "After 24 hours are over, the turbulence of time and space swept away everything, whether it’s the astrological tower'Anglicia' or my lover Alicia, everything is in the crevices of the world. The inside is compressed into a ball, I can feel her presence, but can't touch her fingers, can't see her smile, can't hear her singing,,,, Anicia's voice is more melodious and beautiful than Nightingale, that is, use Ten thousand worlds won’t be able to change back to such a wonderful singing voice. I don’t understand why my consciousness still exists. Perhaps the time and space star array triggered a bizarre chain reaction, allowing me, a frustrated loser, to live forever. In the cracks of time and space, I am sad for a long time for my wrong decision."

"So, where did the ghost come from." Jonah was heartbroken for the deep self-blame in the tutor's words, he couldn't help but change the subject,

"I was awakened for the first time 45 years after the mainland calendar. An astrologer took the Sandworm Merchant Ship across the endless sea of ​​sand, spent several days in the Well of Light, and found a way to open the space-time star array. If it weren’t for his explanation, I don’t know that so much time has passed. There is no concept of time in my world. It’s just the next moment after Anicia’s disappearance. He said that he was not only coming to hajj as an astrologer. , I also paid tribute to the enlightenment as a ghost,'Ghost, what ghost,' I felt very strange at the time, because I had never heard of such a title before,'We are ghosts who want to change the world, and we are not willing to ** Long people,' he said,'now we are still very weak, but as long as free souls exist, the ghost organization will become stronger and stronger. With the help of that person, even the world above will have our companions,' Gilbernaion recalled, "I said at the time:'Then you have also been to the world I have reached, have you seen the person who made the stars,' he replied:'No, our ability is insufficient. There is only you in that world, but that person tells us what the outside world looks like, that’s enough. Just imagine, there will be a quiet and rich Garden of Eden in front of us,’"

Jonah frowned and said: "That is to say, the ghost organization only appeared after you first arrived in the upper world. The goal of the ghost is to break the wall to the top, that's all."

Gilber Naon said: "Yes, the ghost members think the outside world is very beautiful, and the world they live in is a garbage dump. They can’t wait to see that world, I guess it’s called Bu Langdon Bartholomew’s guys fabricated a lie to motivate the ghost members, but the starting point was good after all, and I didn’t say it at the time."

"Why does this Mr. Bartholomew want to help us? If we leave the world and go up there, what good will it do for him... You said he was already middle-aged when we met, so in forty-five years he should He's a dying old man." Jonah said,

"Not so." The first generation mentor shook his head: "Let's listen to me. It has been more than 80 years since the second time of seeing the turbulence of time and space. This time the audience was very excited to tell me that they finally Found the guide, a man who knew all the secrets in the world and was able to predict every small event on this continent, the prophet named'listener', Bartholomew told them to absolutely follow the instructions of the listener, because listening They will lead the ghosts to complete the great task of counterattacking the first world. Oh, yes, they call the world we live in as the "world" and the world above it as the "first world", so it’s easier to understand."

He recalled, "Thirty years after the third visit, the ghost’s messengers said that what they were worried about had happened, and the descendants of the first world began to arrive. Although the number was small, they did affect the operation of the world. When there is an impact, these descendants will occupy our bodies and walk the world in our face. They have our memories, emotions and abilities, and can perform perfect disguise."

"For the fourth visit, the messenger said that an organization called the Brotherhood of Scarlet Owls is gradually growing. It is a puppet of the First World. It is preparing for the large-scale arrival of humans in the First World. This organization fights tirelessly."

"The fifth time I met, the messenger said that the war had begun. The ghosts and the Brotherhood started a dark night battle around the candidates. These candidates were selected by the listener. At a certain moment, a certain The candidate will lead the ghost organization to counterattack the first world, so protecting the candidate becomes the first responsibility of the ghost."

"The sixth visit, the messenger said that a major event is about to happen, and millions of descendants are coming. This is a large-scale aggression from the first world, and even the listeners are unable to prevent the disaster from happening, but listen The author pointed out that this is also the time when the ghosts are waiting, because one of the millions of Adventists will become the true savior and bring eternal light to the world."

"Six visits, every ghost member who reached the Well of Light reported to me the growth of the organization. Five hundred years have passed. With the unremitting efforts of 20 or 30 generations, the ghost has grown from a small The underground organization became a huge group all over the continent. The seventh visit was just a few months ago. The messenger brought Brandon Bartholomew’s greetings: “The gears finally started to work. You and I have waited too long. Just sit down and watch what happened, old friend, “I didn’t understand what he meant at the time. Until I saw you and saw the staff'Sirafana' in your hand, I finally knew what happened five hundred years ago. History will repeat itself at this time. You will follow my will, travel across the continent to find the whereabouts of six artifacts, and then summon the seventh artifact "Umang Black Mang", and use the power to communicate between the two worlds to open the door. "

Gilberto Gilbernaion looked at the apprentices of later generations, and Jonah pointed his nose with trembling fingertips: "I...Is this my destiny, Master Tutor, but this is not my choice. , I was just forced and pushed forward by various forces, and I arrived here with the waves in the ocean of fate. I am not a brave explorer, or even a qualified astrologer, with your strength and Knowledge is nothing compared to me. I still don’t understand why fate chose me..."

The first mentor said: "If it can be explained, destiny will not become destiny. I have not told the truth. I pretend not to know your identity, afraid that the true face of the world will put you on a heavy burden. I am wrong, listen. You seemed so calm when it came to the'First World' news. You didn't feel scared, only anger and shame, right."

Jonah lowered his head and said: "Yes, there is a descent from the first world in my body, but I am a little confused, mentor, I don’t hate him, this descent didn’t kill me. Existence, but to live in peace with me and explore the world curiously. He is an optimistic, knowledgeable and reliable man. I think if we get along well, we will become friends..."

"Just judge for yourself, don't be swayed by ghosts, brotherhoods, or old guys like me." Gilbert Naon patted the apprentice's shoulder lovingly, "You are different from me, I am lonely inside. , And you are never fighting alone."

Jona was quiet for a while, then slowly raised his head: "I see, Master Mentor, I'm wondering whether that Mr. Brandon Bartholomew is the traitor Segles."

"Segles." The first generation mentor seemed a little confused, "I have never heard of this name. Bartholomew likes to be called "Doctor" by others. It is probably some kind of title in the world above. A pseudonym, I guess he will add a'Doctor' at the end."

The young man said unexpectedly: "I thought Segles the Betrayer is closely related to the ghost. Destiny began to turn from a prophecy in his untitled book. It was he who guided me to travel across the continent, looking for artifacts. I think He is a more powerful prophet than the listener... Dr. Bartholomew sounds like a prophet, after all, he lived more than five hundred years old..."

Gilber Nayong laughed: "No, no, he is just a mortal. Bartholomew was just forty when we first met, and five hundred years have passed, and his age is only 60, two The time scale of this world is different. We have spent a long year, and the first world may only have passed one minute, but at the moment when the Adventer arrived on a large scale a few months ago, the time of the two worlds finally synchronized. This is what the ghost messenger told me."

Jonah suddenly fumbled in his underwear pocket, and took out a few pages of untitled books and handed them to the first generation tutor: "This is the prophecy of the untitled book. Every one has been fulfilled. I can explain to you from the first... …"

"What are you talking about." Gilbernaion opened the page and said in confusion: "These are just a few yellowed papyrus at all, and there is no writing on it."

The young man said anxiously: "Why? You see, it is clearly written here,'October 5, the sun was pierced by a sharp sword. They gathered together and couldn't see each other, only the sky and heels. '……"

Gilbernaion pondered: "Have you ever shown these prophecies to others."

"No,, except for the Adventist." Jonah replied,
