Sword of Daybreaker

Amber raised his head and met Gao Wen's calm and deep vision.

"Then ... then what?" She asked curiously.

Gao Wen turned to the next page of his travel notes. In the mottled ancient notes room, the last few paragraphs of this record gradually appeared in front of the person:

"... Brian's answer gave me a sense of inexplicable fear, and I believe that this fear has nothing to do with his words themselves-some kind of super-experienced" foresight "from the intuition of the transcendental brought this This kind of fear, I instinctively feel that Brian mentioned a rather bad situation. These shadow dwellers who are wandering on the edge of the deep dream, maintaining the sober and dream boundary, when they wake up collectively ... to the material world I'm afraid it's not a good thing.

"The only good news is that this kind of thing doesn't seem to happen in the short term-Brian answered so. He said: We finally wake up, but now it seems that this stage is still far away, The dream of the deep realm was once on the verge of lucidity, but not long ago, it has returned to stability, and this stability may continue for a long time.

"I asked him what caused the fluctuation of the deep dream, what made it sober, and what made it stable again-but Brian did not answer, he returned to the state of dreams and wandering. Then I tried again After several attempts, including other Shadow Residents, the results were similar. It seems that as long as this issue is involved, they will immediately enter a deeper dream ... This further exacerbated my anxiety.

"X month x day ... surveys that have not progressed for many days are frustrating, and even more frustrating ... I found myself at a time when I had to leave.

"Unconsciously, I have been staying in this world dominated by the shadow power for too long. Even if there is an opportunity to return to the material world for rest, I am still continuously affected by the shadow power here-without physical body. In the case of 'basic', the loss and assimilation speed of the soul is more rapid than imagined. If I don't return, my soul may be irreversibly damaged, or even ... become a member here forever.

"Xyyx, it's time to say goodbye, farewell to Brian, and farewell to other Shadow Residents. Although we are not a race, I even lurked to them in disguise. Creatures have lived a fulfilling life ... they are disturbing, but they also bring me unimaginable knowledge. I think I will always remember this knowledge and these special 'friends'.

"Before I leave, I will fade away my form of Shadow Soul. It ’s a bit adventurous with Brian, which is a bit risky, but it is more in line with my principles, and I think ... at least what can change if you get along for many days, these shadows Residents also have reason and memory, maybe they will also accept me as a special 'friend' ...

"X month x day, never played.

"Forget it, that's it, at the end of any journey, at least the journey is particularly fulfilling. I should go back to old Malfoy to get my body back-goodbye, the shadow world."

"The main record ends here," Gao Wen raised his head from the travel note and looked at Amber's eyes. "There are two more sections after this, and Modil Wilde mentioned that he returned once again after his body recovered. In the shadow world, but he failed to find those shadow dwellers-they seem to have wandered elsewhere. In later years, due to the gradual step into aging and the use of most of his energy in organizing early notes, he I never went back. "

Amber opened her mouth, but said nothing at the end. She took a step back and went to the chair by the desk. She sat up and stared blankly at the travel notes on the high-instrument table. She looked a little flustered.

"The text above ... reveals a lot of things," Gao Wen said, "a lot of information about the shadow world, about the shadow inhabitants ... and the mysterious shallow and deep realms. But I think the most important thing for you It should be ... "

"A member who 'woke up' ahead of time disappeared in the sight of the tribe ... that should be me," Amber took a breath and seemed to have revived, she pointed to herself, "judging according to the timeline , I should be sleeping in the shadow fortress during the active years of Modil Wilde ... in the form of an artificial human embryo. The scholars of the Gondor Empire captured the souls of the shadow dwellers and successfully injected one of them into the artificial man Inside, this is where I came from. "

"Yes, we all know this," Gao Wen nodded. "Now it seems that your adoptive father should have learned some of the contents of Modil's travel notes from that year, and learned that it may mention your life experience. Before taking the risk to steal it. "

"But it's so worthless," Amber looked at the Modil travel note, and whispered as if talking to herself, "The content above ... which is worth his doing! I don't care how I got here Is n’t it safe for An An steady to live in the country? "

"But he probably felt it was necessary," Gao Wen shook his head. "And most of him was not sure about the real content of this travelogue, nor did he expect that he would miss. It was not something he could decide in advance."

Amber couldn't help mumbling: "He's a fool. He has long worn away his ability as a hidden knight in the countryside, but he still thinks he was the elite royal shadow guard ..."

"... This mentioned the" Birth "of the Shadow Residents," Gao Wen glanced at Amber, and did not speak comfortably, but went directly to other topics, "They were born in a dream of" Deep World ", and this The continued existence of dreams keeps them in their current state. They are walking in the shadow world, actually walking in the border between dream and lucidity ... Can you understand what this means? "

Amber thought about it and shook his head: "I don't know-although I can communicate with the Shadow Residents, they have never told me about this, but I can ask if there is a chance."

Then she added: "Of course, I have some conjectures ... I think the description of" Deep Realm "and" Deep Realm Dream "by Shadow Residents is probably related to a place ..."

Gao Wen frowned, and soon guessed the meaning of Amber based on the information he had: "You mean ... Yuying Realm?"

"If the current world we live in is a" shallow realm "for the shadow dwellers, if the shadow realm is a" middle layer "between the deep realm and the shallow realm for them, then the shadow realm ... has a great deal It may be the 'deep realm' in their mouth, "Amber nodded and said," In terms of spatial relationship, the shadow realm is also the deepest place among the several 'boundary layers' we currently know, so this aspect is still very good. possible."

"What is their so-called" Deep Realm Dream "?" Gao Wen frowned, "The Shadow Realm is empty ... so far, except for a **** of nature hiding inside and pretending to be dead , We did n’t find anything there, let alone dreams. "

"You said, will the giant deer Amon know something?" Amber said while thinking. "He seems to have been in the shadow world for a long time, and as a god, he should know more than we do. . "

"If possible, I want to avoid getting" knowledge "from Amon as much as possible," Gao Wen thought about it, and said seriously, "Intuition tells me that there is a lot of risk in it-the risk does not come from Amor's 'malicious', but some kind of 'law' that even Amor can't control. Since ancient times, countless mortals have encountered terrible fate after excessive contact with the knowledge of the deity, and asked the deity the question The matter itself is the next step.

"Of course, if there is no way at the end, and we urgently need to dig deep into the secrets of the shadow world, it is also an option to ask Amon for inquiry, but before that ... we'd better tell the scholars of the Empire first, Let them find a way to solve this problem with 'mortal wisdom'. "

"Okay, what you said is the same," Amber waved his hand, and then he seemed to remember something again, "Yes, I just thought of one thing ... you said this 'deep realm', it was the same as Amonti before. Will there be a connection to the 'Deep Sea'? "

"Actually, I doubted it at first," Gao Wen frowned, "but I always think that the" deep sea "that made Amor take so seriously should not be such a simple thing. If the shadow world is the deep sea or the deep sea entrance Words ... Why should Amon say that no mortal can touch the deep sea since ancient times, and even the gods are only a ripple of the deep sea? "

Amber thought about it seriously, and felt that Gao Wen's statement also made sense. She thought about it for a long time with a serious expression, and finally sighed in abandon, stretched her limbs and paralyzed in a chair without a figure: "Hey ... It feels like my head hurts ... it's all messy. I tell you, I'm not suitable for thinking about this kind of problem ... "

Gao Wen couldn't help but smiled and glanced at the embarrassment of this empire-it seemed that this guy had recovered.

Then he put his eyes back on the Modil travelogue. After two seconds of thinking, he looked at Amber and broke his silence: "Then the study should study how to deal with the travelogue ..."

Amber subconsciously followed Gao Wen ’s gaze and looked at the old book with a mottled cover. For a moment, she seemed to want to reach out, but she smiled and shook her head before taking action. What-of course it ’s back to the original owner. According to the regulations, after making the copy, you should return it to the Duchess of the Ice Cube. The content will be returned to her after being taken out. "

Gao Wen looked at the embarrassment of this empire somewhat unexpectedly: "I thought you would want to keep it."

"... In fact, I really thought about it for a moment," Amber pouted, and slumped lazily on the chair. "After all, my adoptive father lost his life for such a broken book, but I thought about it carefully. ... What does this book have to do with me? It's just a note left by an adventurer who has nothing to do with me after an adventure that has nothing to do with me. It happened to write about my original race. ... I have no reason to encroach on others ’things for this."

Gao Wen was even more surprised: "This is not like what a person who once vowed to be the first thief in the south of the country-when you dug my grave that year was not the case."

Amber waved her hands again and again: "Don't mention it, I'm digging a grave and got caught by stolen goods. Was it the end of my last career?"

Gao Wen: "..."

After two seconds of calm thinking, he glanced at the Guardian's Shield and the Trailblazer's Sword not far away: "Have you considered the possibility of being hit by stolen goods?"

The next second, Amber's figure disappeared instantly in the study.

Outdoors, sunny.

Autumn is approaching, the sunshine is a bit less hot, and the air is more pleasant than in the past.

Amber walked on the street leading to the prosperous area, a little bit out of the effect of the invisibility of the shadow. The hazy curtain like black yarn faded from all directions, and she let the bright sun pour out on her face.

It feels good to walk in the sun.

She looked up and watched the glorious Sun Wheel hang in the sky, a smile on her face slowly appeared.

Gao Wen retracted his gaze looking out of the window and left the large French window facing the east block.

After quietly thinking for a moment, he shook his head and returned to the desk. He first pulled out a pen and paper, and wrote a letter ready to be transmitted to the northbound cold winter castle, and then his eyes fell on the book. "Modier Travels."

Modil Wilde, perhaps the greatest adventurer in An Su ’s history, his footsteps traveled through the world known to mankind, and even entered the unknown field of mankind. He left countless valuable intellectual wealth after his lifetime. However, the turbulent situation caused many of his things to disappear in the long river of history.

For example, few people know that Modil Wilde also challenged the sea ...

Gao Wen picked up the travel notes and opened it again, finding the part that he was reading before Amber came and had not finished reading it.

In addition to the adventures in the shadow world, there is a part of this travel note that he is extremely concerned about-the piece of "Cold Disaster Talisman" that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Wild family.

Those ancient and neat handwritten texts caught Gao Wen's eyes:

"Xyyxx, when sorting out some folklore in the East, I found some interesting clues, which may become the beginning of my next adventure ...

"There is evidence that, about a hundred years ago, the great pioneering hero, Grand Duke Gavin Cecil, left his territory and carried out an" adventure "that even adventurers like me marveled at-- Challenge the ocean.

"There are not many people who know about this secret voyage, and some of the whimsical stories that have been passed down, but I still find clues that can be mutually confirmed from many trivial materials. With the intuition and Experience, I think this is not simply a heroic story compiled by bards, it should be an adventure that has actually happened.

"This excites me!

"Think about it. A hero a hundred years ago, a person who is not a professional adventurer, bravely challenged the sea and came back alive, and I call myself the greatest adventurer of this era, but I have been on safe land for half my life Go round and round ... What a big irony, what a great motivation!

"I really should start a new adventure-collect more information, find more clues, and be fully prepared. Modil Wilder will carry out the most thrilling challenge since his adventure ...

"Go look for the" Heroic Route "by Kovin Cecil!"

(Recommended a book, "I just want to win" in the gaming e-sports category, emmmm ... I feel like I have n’t read this type of book in a long time, everyone can go and support it.)
