Chapter 735 Ancient Methods of Creating Gods
Milo and Freya left the village at night.
It was already dawn when the captain arrived at the entrance of the village, and everything that was supposed to happen had happened...
…
But in fact, there was a fish that slipped through the net.
Aegon, she's out hunting.
…
But soon, Aegon, who was only active in the nearby mountains, was discovered by the temple apostles.
They did not "just go easy" on Aegon because she was not like the other children in the village, she was not a failure of blessing.
“This is an ordinary child. Do you remember what the priest said?”
"It is said that only one of the latest batch of creations survived. He was very dissatisfied and asked us to bring more back..."
"Isn't this just what we need?"
Aegon was knocked unconscious and taken away like this. She didn't know what she would face next.
…
The team of temple apostles continued to go south to track the whereabouts of the Greeks.
They have the route map of Milo's journey in their hands. Although there are two route maps on it, one of them is in the country of Hylandris, on the other side of the Zulu River, so there is no doubt that the one with the highest probability is the one in Losk.
I have to say that Gou Zhi’s temple apostles are quite good at tracking this, and they found it very accurately.
It’s a pity that I found it a little too accurately.
…
…
Milo found a sunken cave for Freya in the mountain forest, which was just enough to accommodate her height of more than two meters.
“Wait for me here for a while, don’t show your head.”
He arranged the bandages of unknown meaning wrapped around Freya’s broken horn, and then piled them up at the entrance of the cave. Climb some branches for cover.
"Are you sure this will work?" In Freya's eyes, these leaves and branches also have unknown meaning.
But Milo responded seriously: "This way you won't be splashed with blood."
"Wait." When Milo took care of the cover and was about to turn around to meet the temple apostles, Freya stretched out her hand and grabbed Milo, and said seriously: "Don't die."
"Don't worry. , I've already drank blood." Milo waved his hand.
…
The fog wall surrounded the dense forest.
A few minutes later, some strange noises that had nothing to do with the fighting came from the dense forest.
There were no howls or screams, and there was no sound of swords clashing. It was probably just a noise, as if something was being pulled through the trees.
But Milo was right, there was indeed blood splattering everywhere, hitting the branches covered by Freya's hiding place.
…
In the jungle, this team of temple apostles has been cut into pieces, and most of them have their butts hung on the trees.
The blue gems on their metal gauntlets have also been burned into powder.
But Milo was left alive.
This guy was kneeling in a pool of blood at the moment, his eyes empty and his face dull, answering Milo's words word for word.
“How did you find us?”
“This.” (hands the map)
“You entered the village?”
"Yes."
"How did you find the village?"
"The man who drove the boat exchanged the temple stone for the opportunity to worship the priest. The priest got the information about you and the priest from his mind. We needed information about the village, so we went to the village.”
“Then?”
“We cleaned up all the failed creations, and later caught a normal one and sent someone to deliver it. Returned to the Prayer Hall.”
"A girl with a little dark skin?"
"Ah, yes."
"...You can die."
"Okay." (Tear it open with bare hands. own throat)
…
...
The wall of fog dispersed.
Milo kicked away the body kneeling at his feet.
Looking back at Freya who had climbed out of the cave.
The latter obviously also heard what the temple apostle said after being led by the dream, but she only looked at Milo quietly, waiting for him to make a decision.
"Shouldn't you take off immediately and rush over to save people?" Milo asked.
Of course Freya could hear Milo insinuating her last reckless behavior on the sea.
So he pointed to the bandaged broken corner on his head and said in an unusually obedient manner: "I know it hurts, so I will listen to you this time."
That's it. That was true, but the look of anticipation in her eyes was not concealed at all, and she was basically sure of what Milo would say next.
“Okay, then we have to be quick.”
Milo pulled out some weapons such as daggers and crossbows from the corpses of the temple apostles and threw them to Freya, and then asked seriously: "Are you sure there is nothing wrong with your body?"
"There is no way to turn into a dragon for the time being. That’s all.” Freya patted her chest.
Then he immediately started coughing crazily.
…
…
So the two of them returned to the village along the same route.
A night's journey is in vain.
When the two of them returned to the village entrance, the captain had disappeared.
The village was a bloody mess.
But at least it was not as ferocious as the picture Milo imagined.
Because Aunt Shana, who appeared out of nowhere, had buried all those frightening parts on the spot.
She was trembling, her long hair was soaked with sweat, and her clothes were stained with blood and mud. She buried more than a hundred corpses in the village alone.
…When Milo walked slowly back to the center of the village, Aunt Shana was kneeling in front of the filled land and praying softly.
She looked back at Milo and said to him what she had said before in a very strange tone:
"This is fate, a fate that cannot be escaped."
Aunt Shana's tone did not seem to be accusing anything. She stretched out her arms as if to introduce the "people around her" to Milo. ".
But in fact there were only collapsed huts and blood stains around, without any living creatures.
…
No, to be precise, she looked at Freya and said this.
When she saw Freya alive and with a complete face, Aunt Shana suddenly became excited. She began to cry loudly, shouting words such as "atonement" and "fate".
"Poor child..."
"Can you forgive me? Can you?"
"No...a filthy and sinful soul is not worthy of forgiveness. Well..."
"Yes, this is fate."
"You are like this, so are you! So are these poor dead creatures... No one can escape the arrangement of fate..."
"So are the gods!"
"I said it, haha ...I finally said it..."
"Nightmare, it will corrode the soul of every living creature, even the gods cannot escape!"
"So the gods failed, failed miserably! ! ”
"They were lost in a far away place~~"
"And His servants finally panicked..."
"They began to follow God's footsteps, but It's all in vain, nothing gained ..."
"How is it possible to find it? I can't find it~"
"Then the servants are also lost. They are abandoned by God, become mad and try to recreate the god! ”
"Use the blood and flesh of the beast from across the starry sky, cut it, chop it! Chew it! Refined it into essence, the perfect, eternal essence..."
"And then pour it into the young In the body of a young child, a blasphemous divine embryo is created, creation..."
"..."
"I am the executioner, I am the executioner, hee hee hee..."
"Guess how many Greeks I have cut into pieces?"
"Huh?"
"I can't remember clearly either. Who can remember clearly..."
"...Haha..."
"Yes..."< br>
“Who can remember clearly...
"Woooo..."
...
...
Aunt Shana's madness this time was much more serious than what Milo had seen on the boat before. It's not just as simple as crying and laughing.
This time she didn't just talk nonsense, she also told the truth.
Some shocking truths.
…
Milo felt that the breathing rate of Freya next to him was not right, so he raised his head and glanced at her: "Do you understand it too?"
"She is the one who purifies the Legion."
Freya looked complicated.
Milo narrowed his eyes and muttered in a low voice:
"It's strange... I have developed my hearing after listening to the Riddler's lines for several years. Why can she also understand..."
…
In fact, Milo had doubts about Aunt Shana's identity as early as on the boat.
Her superb surgical skills are definitely not something that an ordinary woman can master, let alone knowing clearly many secrets such as Xiren, Wounded Dragon Grease, and Eagle Eye...
She indeed saved Freya's life as a doctor.
But it’s not necessarily that her sword skills are used to save people.
…
The crazy riddle above sums up the meaning.
She is the executioner who specializes in "purifying" those hunted Greeks.
And "purification" is actually just a relatively mild term given by the temple. In essence, it is to carry out the way Aunt Shana cut off the injured dragon's grease for Freya that day. In short, it is to chop it into pieces carefully.
The "purified" flesh and blood will be stored in containers produced by the temple such as Ula Xilu, whether it is a jar or a pot, in short, it is a ritual container for holding cankered minced meat.
The dissected Greek flesh and blood will be refined twice.
Then the "refined" essence was injected into the body of a young child to generate some kind of artificial "god embryo". However, it failed but did not die suddenly on the spot and survived as a disabled person. , is called "creation". That is, these children in the village...
……
Aunt Shana has also made it very clear why such a twisted concept was derived from the Gouzhi Temple.
In fact, this is what shocked Milo the most.
She actually knew about the gods collectively lost in the abyss.
Fortunately, if such a secret is told from the mouth of a madman, it has no credibility.
…
In fact, it is very likely that more than just the Temple of Gou is doing this kind of thing, because Freya mentioned a group like the "Purification Legion", and Milo knows one thing well, if the temple of the god is lost, more than just Gou Refers to a family.
…
As for what happened to Shana, turning her from a member of the Purification Legion to the crazy woman she is now, from an executioner to a redeemer who saves people, this There may be some heavier stories behind it.
……
It’s also ironic to say.
Doesn’t the idea of recreating gods sound familiar?
Isn’t that how that kid Meigao came to be?
Why are the leftover things that the Sumerians played with in the last era now picked up and played by people in the Dreamland?
And they are still being played by believers of the dream gods.
This...
