Chapter 870 The Harlequin and the Laughing God
“The teacher once said that dreams are the most illusory, but they are also closest to reality.”
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Veronica took off her shoes, then knelt down Sitting behind Soshyan, the middle fingers of both hands gently pressed on his temples.
Soon, as the other person's body exuded something similar to the fragrance of plants, a clear stream flowed through his skull. Suoshiyang suddenly felt that the boredom, irritability, and suspicion that had been entangled with him for a long time gradually disappeared. , gradually returning to the ethereal state he had not experienced for a long time.
Feeling the coolness and the gentle touch of the other party's fingers, Soshyan relaxed.
He really hadn't relaxed in a long, long time.
"You"
About three minutes later, Soshyan suddenly said:
"Veronica, do you know the Star God? Or use your language , called Ingel."
For a moment, he clearly felt the other party's fingers trembling.
"Why are you asking this."
"They are related to me."
Veronica's fingers left Soshyan's temple, and then she gently pressed the hard Shoulders like rocks.
“Why explore such a dangerous secret.”
“Someone told me that the essence of the Milky Way is the knife and the anvil. If you don’t want to be the person lying on the anvil, then you have to become The man holding the knife.”
Veronica bit her lower lip and hesitated for a moment. She remembered that her mentor had said that she must not reveal any information related to the Star God to Soshyan.
Suddenly, she felt Soshyan's shoulders sag.
".Help me, Veronica."
In the end, she chose to compromise.
“I don’t know much. It is said that the Star Gods existed when the universe was born. They were conceived in the rotating gas and huge energy, so they can be said to be incredible existences that are naturally produced. They have incredible The huge bodies they shape feed on the energy of stars, and all matter around them is too insignificant to attract their attention. In a sense, they are the ultimate in the physical world.”
"Then how did they become what they are now?"
"According to the information in the ancient library, the Star Gods used the Necrontyr's hatred of the Old Saints to launch the War in Heaven, and the enjoyment they derived from it far exceeded In addition, the Star Gods deceived the Necrontyrs to give up their bodies and turned into living metal to become the current Necrons. The Old Saints were defeated in the pincer attack between the Necrontyrs and the Enslavers, but the arrogant Star Gods did not Unaware of the danger they faced, the Necrons who were then fooled by them defeated the C'tan one by one with unimaginable weapons and shattered most of them. The fragments of the C'tan became the objects later sent by the Necron. Tools of war, the ones you see."
"If the Star Gods are as powerful as you say, how can the Necrons defeat them so easily?"
"Nothing about it. I have also had doubts about this. I just saw some clues in the information about the troupe. It seems that a very serious civil war broke out among the Star Gods, and even the Laughing God seemed to be involved. "
< br>“The theater troupe?”
"You have so many problems."
As she spoke, Veronica moved her fingers to Soshiyang's chin, and a natural breath made her dry mouthpiece feel refreshed after sleeping.
"This is the last question, I promise."
"Then you have to promise me one thing."
"Okay."
"Harlequins are a special branch of the path in a sense. They stay away from society most of the time and do not belong to the Craftworld or any institution. They only follow their belief in Silegor, the god of laughter of the Eldar. He is the history of Ada The greatest clown in history, and the first clown. One of the most important missions of the clown is to act out our history through theater, and their belief system has a lot to do with the fall, as Sirago was one of the few survivors. The clowns It is believed that Siregor's carefree character kept him away from the evils of depravity and corruption that led to the emergence of Slaanesh, and therefore he has survived to this day. Since our race has been broken up after the Great Fall, the Harlequins often travel between different settlements. , fulfilling the mission of inheriting history. Their traveling organization is the troupe. But don't underestimate them. Harlequins are both performers and warriors. Their reputations for both are spread throughout the galaxy. They are in a sense the most deadly among us. A warrior whose acrobatic deception skills are as good as his unique equipment, and who can perfectly combine the two in battle to become the most mysterious and unpredictable enemy."
"So that's it."
Soshiyang nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that if he wanted to further dig into the secrets of the past star gods, he would have to find a way to start with the Harlequin Troupe and the Laughing God.
"Have you ever met a harlequin troupe? This is not a question, you can choose to answer it or not."
Veronica snorted and said:
"Just ask, can't you be more honest? Of course I have met the troupe. They have visited Craftworld three times in my memory, and each visit is like a small festival."
"They will be there in Do you want to show up in front of foreigners? ""Don't think about it, you won't be able to see them anyway unless they want to."
"I understand, that's up to you."< br>
Of course, Soshyan has not forgotten the promise he just made.
"I want a ship that can travel far."
Hearing this, Soshyan was stunned for a moment.
“Why?”
“I can’t contact my mentor, and I can’t feel the soul crystal of Ark Time. I. I’m worried that something bad has happened.”
< br>When she said this, Veronica's voice sank.
Soshyan had rarely seen the other party so down.
"Perhaps they are just hiding temporarily."
"Since they need to hide, they must have encountered some danger. I must stand with my compatriots!"
Soshiyang turned around and looked at Veronica, noticing that the other person's shoulders were shaking slightly, and it was obvious that her emotions had been suppressed for a long time.
Think about it, being alone in a hostile and dangerous foreign land for a long time will make even someone as lively as she feel scared and worried.
"I promised that person to ensure your safety. If I let you go, I would have broken my oath."
"Don't worry, I can protect myself."
Sosh Yang shook his head.
“You can’t, this is reality, it’s not that I despise you.”
“But you promised me, this is also an oath.”
Soshyan sighed, obviously he had to compromise.
"Let's do this. I know you are very distressed by being locked in the room all the time. In the future, you can be my narrator and act with me, but you must promise not to reveal your identity in front of others."
Each chapter leader will have a narrator, who will record his words and deeds in daily life and in war, and will be placed in the chapter archives after the chapter leader dies in action, which can be regarded as providing a place for future generations to learn and Reference information.
Some warbands call such a character a poet.
Veronica hesitated obviously for a while, and then Soshiyang said in a deep voice:
"Before your tribe comes to pick you up, I can't let you leave. This is my bottom line."
A bright smile suddenly appeared on the face of the Elf girl, and she bumped lightly with her shoulder. Soshiyang moved his back and said teasingly:
"Hee hee, bottom line? Is there a line between use and conspiracy? These words come from you, who is sitting on the same bed with the 'alien' It was said in a long mouth, but it was not convincing at all."
Sosh opened his mouth, but was unable to defend himself for a while, and in the end he could only sigh.
"Yes. It would be better for me to arrange a separate bedroom for you, but you have to promise not to make any trouble."
Veronica blinked her eyes and said with a smile:
"Aren't you afraid of not waking up? This is not the first time. During this time, you often fall into a deep sleep for no reason. Sometimes you suddenly fall into a deep sleep while reading a book. I just fell asleep. I didn’t wake you up several times, but you are still asleep now.”
“This——”
“If you die suddenly, those who regard you as life. The guy is not allowed to eat me, so be it, I’m used to it anyway, there’s no need to change places.”
For a while, Soshiyang didn’t know whether to refuse, and in the end he could only respond in silence.
Let’s count the votes again o(╥﹏╥)o
