The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 63: Bleeding Tomorrow (Part 1)
Jonah looked at the weird food on the tip of the fork while thinking about how to tell his friends the prophecy of the untitled book, and convince them that he had received real revelation, not because of witnessing the blood of the rent payment day Hallucinations caused by the scene.
"Uh...is this really edible?" he asked timidly.
"Stop talking nonsense! Eat it while it's hot!" Sibi glared at him fiercely.
Jonah held back the feeling of tumbling in his stomach, and slowly opened his mouth. Although the two-inch-long fried tri-nematode looks browned, crispy and fragrant, like a small sausage filled with diced meat, the aquatic worm with strong vitality is still twisting on the fork tip, dancing in a dying struggle.
"I think it's still alive..." he said timidly.
"Live a fart! It's premature! It's just natural reflection, so the taste is good! Eat!" Sibi chewed his food, hating iron and iron and reprimanding the citizens of St. Boren who don't know how to appreciate food.
Jonah glanced at his teammates.
People sit around on the floor of room a51, with fried tri-nematodes, small fish soup, hard bread, and the unchanging black gold gopher meat in front of them.
The two Bazelards happily chewed the traditional food from their hometown without a trace of psychological obstacles; the southerner Yekong gave all kinds of food into his mouth blankly, and Jonah didn’t think he had tasted the food. Elliott is obviously doing the same psychological struggle, but the principle of obedience forces him to succumb to Sibi’s obscene power, frowning and swallowing half of the dancing meat and insects; "I don’t eat meat." Long Ji said, so he got Gave an extra pardon, but she peeked at Jonah and Elliott, betrayed her with a narrow smile, and the astrologer apprentice felt resentful.
Jonah thought about it for a long time. Maybe it has been considered for too long. He looked at his friends and felt that the time was right.
"I...I have something to tell everyone." He put down his fork and said sternly.
"You said you said." The head of the room picked up the wooden cup and drank water and swallowed a large mouthful of food.
"A serious matter." Jonah's eyes were serious.
"You said you said." The farmer of Bazelal waved his hand majesticly, motioning his friends to quiet down and listen to the instructions of the astrologer while squeezing the crispy fried insects.
"Seriously," Jonah reminded.
"You said you said." Toba sits upright and raises his head, closing his mouth tightly, his big cheeks puffing up.
Jonah decided to ignore everyone's reaction.
He lowered his head and looked at the ground, and said quickly: "In fact, there is one thing that I have always wanted to tell you after I came to Cherry Du, but I haven't been able to say it for various reasons.
Everyone knows that I am from St. Boren. Before the Redstone Fort was broken by the army of the Zavi Empire-according to the legion called the "Raven" according to the ground dragon knight Qiaopu-I used to The Astrologer Tower walked to the Royal and Anglican Library in Redstone Fort to search for information. One day I found a strange untitled book in a secret hut in the library. This book was signed as'Segles the Betrayer' The first half of the book tells the secret history of St. Boren, while the second half is a strange illogical diary or poem.
I was still young and didn't realize the meaning of this book until the day the invaders broke through the walls of the Redstone Fort. At that time, the tyrant Yelizawitan had not unilaterally tore up the joint amnesty treaty, which allowed me to safely walk into the Redstone Fort and witness the cruel massacre. To me at that time, the massacre was like a knight novel. The matter of "has nothing to do with me,-until a certain picture in front of me completely coincides with a chapter of the untitled book in my memory, at this time I understand that the second half of the untitled book is the prophecy of the betrayer Segles about the future. This mysterious author used vague language to accurately predict the imminent massacre in Redstone Fort decades ago.
When I realized the importance of the book, the Royal and Anglican Library had been ignited by the enemy, and I braved the flames to rush in and only saved two and a half pages of the untitled book.
Mr. Ellie, Little Grasshopper, Yekong,...Long Ji, listen to me, I came to Cherry Cross because of the prophecy of the unknown book, even though the Astrology Tower is no longer safe, I have to leave ; Cherry crossing is in the prophecy of Segles, friends, the prophetic date is April 26th not long after, I don’t know what will happen, but I’m sure that bad things will happen and we need to do Get ready for this day, the day of prophecy. "
Jonah finished the long-awaited monologue in one breath, breathing quickly, looking up to observe everyone's reaction. The tenants of a51 looked at him blankly, holding the tableware, and with a grunt, the head of the room swallowed the food.
"Brother, what are you talking about? I didn't understand." Sibi blinked green eyes.
Jonah stood up and anxiously took out the untitled pages of the untitled book with his body temperature from his underwear pocket, "Look, right here, what I said is true, please believe me, I didn’t talk about this to anyone, because astrologers shouldn’t believe in stupid predictions, but I know that all of this is true. These pages clearly read the future of Cherry Crossing, our future, and even the world. Future. Please, trust me!"
"Can we..." Elliott reached out and gestured.
"Of course, of course, Ellie." Jonah stood on tiptoe and handed Paper to the Rose Knight, twitching his nose anxiously. Whenever he feels anxious, he always feels itchy nose. After leaving teacher Koshawa who assigned his homework, this feeling has not passed for a long time. The nervous, but eager sense of urgency for approval, like the morning urine after holding back most of the night, makes people restless.
Elliott held up the yellowed papyrus so that the text on the paper was illuminated by the sunlight through the narrow window.
"The half page, the half page that was burned, Ellie. In order, that page was the first thing that happened. The previous prophecy was burned, but I remember the content, so I wrote it on." Jonah remind.
"October 5th, the sun was pierced by a sharp sword," the Rose Knight said in extremely standard lingua franca, paused, and looked at Jonah with a little doubt.
"This is the first prophecy we know, keep on reading, Ellie." Jonah rubbed his nose nervously.
"On October 5, the sun was pierced by a sharp sword. They gathered together and couldn't see each other, only the sky and the heels." Elliott read.
Jonah walked to the center of the room, spreading his hands and trying to explain to his friends: "This is it! This is what happened that day. On April 2, the day Redstone Fort was breached, hundreds of queens The soldiers of the guard were collectively beheaded by the Zawi in the square in front of the palace.
The sun was pierced by a sharp sword, referring to Matraktiri (the first sun) hanging on the spire of the tower of the Redstone Fort; they gathered together and could not see each other, only the sky And heels, this sentence refers to the beheaded soldiers, they were tied together, their heads fell to the ground, some of the eyes on their skulls looked towards the sky, some looked towards the headless corpse. That's it! "
He looked around, people with confused expressions on their faces, Long Ji stretched out her hand slightly, as if she wanted to give him some help.
"No, I'm not crazy!" Jonah yelled almost hysterically, "Listen to me, if you were there too, at the Redstone Fort on the afternoon of April 2nd, see that scene with me, you must I will believe every word I say, because the **** picture is screaming'I am the prophecy like that nightmare'!"
"Of course I believe you." Toba said with respect.
"No, no, no, what I want is not your belief, what I want is to'believe' my belief. Uh... my God, how can I express to make you believe?" Jonah rubbed violently The bridge of his nose, pacing in circles, "Um, Ellie, can you keep reading?"
"Yes, sir. On October 6, Gamaliel descended from the sky with all the selected pagans. Ayala couldn't see him, Ayala couldn't hear him, but he was in the palace of bones Stay in, don't feel panic.'Don't approach the mirror', Gamaliel gave him advice." The Rose Knight continued.
"This is the second prophecy. Have you heard it? This is about..." Jonah opened his mouth excitedly, but suddenly solidified his expression, as if he had become a victim of a stone statue by petrification.
Sibi stood up hesitantly and waved in front of him with a small hand, "Brother, are you okay?"
About the devil in my body. This is something more bizarre than prophecy. Can I tell others? If others knew, would I be a heresy who should be tied to the stake and burned to death? But if you don’t say it, how can you verify that the prediction is correct?
Wait a minute...I have overlooked an important fact. The prophecy mentions "with all the selected heretics", that is to say, there may be many possessed demons descending into the world, maybe they are now In front of me, my close friends, among the tenants of a51, there are demons lurking in the bodies of mortals and spying. If I show that I have insight into this huge conspiracy, it may bring even greater disasters to me and them... …But if you hide the secret like this, how can you ask for help and find a way to banish the devil?
Jona thinks left and right, the brain becomes a whirlpool of thunder and storm tumbling with a sense of fear and mission. One thought after another, lightning flashes across, and then is destroyed by the negated hurricane, fragments of thought are scattered in the mind. Pingyuan, he didn't know what to do, or even how to make a tiny movement to relieve embarrassment. His whole body became stiff, and even his toes were taut in his boots.
"Hello?" Sibi patted his face and asked everyone nervously: "Is he still alive? His pupils are enlarged."
"Sit down, little grasshopper, he's okay." Long Ji said, standing up gently, pinching Jona's cheek, and looking into his pupils with dark bottomless eyes.
I don’t know what the Eastern woman did, but Jona, struggling with contradictions, clearly saw a thunderbolt that split the sky and suddenly shattered mixed thoughts. With a bang, the thunder and storm disappeared without a trace, his brain He became extremely clear, the breeze blew across the field, and the fragments of his thoughts combined into a clear line of thought. At this moment, he knew what to do.
