Chapter 269 The Scale of Good and Evil (3)
At night, in the desert, they set up a camp in a place with sand dunes and waited for the night to pass. But the sky in the desert at night was so beautiful, as beautiful as a dream. They couldn't help but sit in front of the campfire and look up at the stars. Vast.
"I heard that in the universe, this little broken ball is nothing. It is really just a little broken ball. Is that right, Mr. Xie Jiatu?"
Aliyah, the desert guide who was traveling with him, came up at this time.
Professor Xie Jiatu was sitting in front of the curtain of his tent, making a cup of coffee and enjoying the tranquility. There was another tent next to him, which was Mr. [Golden Eyes]'s tent.
This guy named Mr. Xie Jiatu looks more pleasing to the eye... Of course, the guy named [Golden Eyes] next to him is an exception, because she has cooperated with him several times before, Aria thought to herself.
The reason why he found Mr. Xie Jiatu pleasing to the eye was naturally because Mr. Xie Jiatu was more friendly and gave him a lot of gadgets, including a bottle of very good quality wine from Britain.
Aria loves to drink, and she has no intention of taking this bottle of wine out of the desert, so she plans to drink it this night.
"The world that our eyes can see is indeed very small." Professor Xie Jiatu said with a slight smile: "But this kind of smallness cannot be realized in a person's life... We often can only imagine it."
Aria seemed to be quite interested in what was going on outside. She chatted with Mr. Xie Jiatu again and again. He actually felt that most of the people who came to the desert on this trip were guys with weird personalities. , even [Golden Eyes], who has collaborated with him several times, actually doesn’t have a very good personality.
Of course, this Mr. [Golden Eyes] thought that this alone was enough for him as the money manager.
"Mr. Xie Jiatu, are you married? At this age, you should have children, right?" Aria lay on the sand, slightly drunk.
"I'm not married, but I have a daughter." Professor Xie Jiatu said with a slight smile: "Her name is Claudia, and she is my favorite daughter."
"She must be a beautiful little girl." Aria said enviously: "I also want to start a family, and then I also want a daughter, but unfortunately no woman is willing to follow me."
Professor Xie Jiatu glanced at him and asked curiously: "Why do you want a daughter?"
In the local area, the status of women is relatively... In an area where men are mainly the labor force, Aria's idea is relatively alternative.
Aria said without thinking: "How difficult is it to give birth to a boy? When he grows up, you have to worry about marriage for him. It takes a lot of money to marry him! It's different with my daughter. Once she gets married, I can I received a lot of money… I had no money!”
Professor Xie Jiatu was obviously quite surprised by Aria's thoughts... He began to look at Aria seriously, as if he was thinking about something. He suddenly whispered in a low voice: "What a loyal person..." guy."
"Ignore this guy." The gentleman who called himself [Golden Eyes] came over at this time, "This guy only needs a few sips of wine to start talking about his dissatisfaction with life... All his money is used to support the village. .”
"Village?" Professor Xie Jiatu was startled. When he looked at Aria again, he found that he had already fallen asleep holding the wine bottle.
"There are only some old people, women and children left." [Golden Eyes] sat down casually. He was still holding a boiling pot with coffee in it.
Mr. [Golden Eyes] added some coffee to Professor Xie Jiatu's cup, and then said calmly: "Most of the men in the village have gone out. Some of these people also served as desert guides, but they died in the desert. Some were in other places. He worked locally and would send money back in the early days, but gradually there was no news. He was the only young labor force left in that village."
Professor Xie Jiatu smiled slightly: "No wonder you suggested hiring him as a guide when we were discussing how to enter the desert."
Mr. [Golden Eyes] said calmly: "No, I would suggest that you use him, not because of his situation, but because he is indeed the best guide nearby... To me, he is the best guide, but It just so happens that his situation is quite special.”
Professor Xie Jiatu nodded: "Everyone has his own way of life."
Mr. [Golden Eyes] asked curiously: "So what is your lifestyle...as the only one among us who insists on using his original name?"
"Seeking truth." Professor Xie Jiatu said calmly: "Names are more than just symbols for human beings. Do you know that in many ancient myths and legends, names have incredible power."
"Are you talking about... your real name?" [Golden Eyes] frowned and subconsciously said with a smile: "But where do people come from?"
Professor Xie Jiatu shook his head, "The power of a name does not lie in the power it brings to you, but in its ability to let you know who you are... the person deepest in your heart."
Mr. [Golden Eyes] was silent, holding the cup of hot coffee in both hands, feeling the passage of time, "What about you, who is the person deepest in your heart?"
he asked suddenly.
Professor Xie Jiatu smiled slightly and said: "Myself, this is myself."
Mr. [Golden Eyes] took a deep look at Professor Xie Jiatu, thought for a moment and said, "Otto, my name is Otto."
"Last name?" Professor Xie Jiatu asked curiously.
"Only this name." Mr. [Golden Eyes]... Mr. Otto said calmly.
Professor Xie Jiatu thought for a while and said, "Family, relatives... giving up your surname is equivalent to giving up these things, are you willing to let it go?"
"There is no reluctance..." Mr. Otto smiled lightly and said: "When you have sixty-nine brothers, and each of them wants the other to die, I don't think you would want to Proud of the last name.”
Professor Xie Jiatu opened his mouth in surprise.
At this time, the drunk Aria suddenly sat up, drunkenly raised the wine bottle in his hand, and shouted: "Long live the beautiful sword... long live..."
He fell back and fell asleep, soundly asleep, muttering in his mouth, talking about long live...long live the money.
"This way of living may be quite good." Mr. Otto suddenly said, "At least, it is simpler and does not have so many complicated things."
"I'm starting to be a little interested in him." Professor Xie Jiatu smiled slightly.
"He'll be interested in your money," Mr. Otto said noncommittally.
They looked at each other and smiled.
Professor Xie Jiatu said slowly at this time: "We can't feel the insignificance of this world. It seems so huge in the eyes of mortals... Destiny is a giant wheel that can roll over all life. When it comes, you are completely powerless. Resist it. Only in the eyes of gods, both mortals and the world are small."
Maybe, this is really the case... Mr. Otto thought in his mind, no, this is indeed the case.
Because he has seen...seen God.
…
…
The red figure of the Djinn God, the ferocious blush, and the flames burning on his body...these flames were not actually hot, because he had touched them with his own hands...a long time ago, a long time ago.
[Night Watcher] Otto stared blankly at the screen on the metal wall, but the image on the screen soon turned into pitch black. Because of the strange creature with the head of an eagle and the human body... it was frantically beating on the giant door where the high priest left.
The huge force probably broke the circuit inside the metal wall, so the screen could no longer work.
This strange creature with an eagle head seems to be the transformation of the pharaoh of the kingdom. According to the image records that the high priest looked at before, this is correct.
Moreover, [Nightwatchman] Otto was also able to confirm one thing, that is, the sudden mutation of the kingdom's pharaoh was completely beyond the high priest's own expectations.
A pebble suddenly rolled towards the footsteps of the [Night Watchman] from behind, interrupting his thoughts... He turned around and saw that Iben, who he had been hiding outside, was waving to him vigorously. And he lowered his voice and said: "Let's go! Go quickly! It's dangerous! Are you really planning to fight against this terrifying thing... You will die! You will really die!"
[Night Watcher] At this time, he raised his head and looked around. Due to the collision of the eagle-headed monster, the power transmission in this room has stopped. I wonder if the electromagnetic field in the square outside the miniature temple has failed?
"Walk."
[Night Watcher] raised his knife to guard against the crazy eagle-headed creature, and quickly joined Iben. The wish of the high priest seemed to be in vain. This eagle-headed creature was not interested in [Night Watcher] at all. .
"Where to go?" Iben asked hurriedly.
[The Night Watchman] said directly: "Go to the square and see if you can pick up the weapon... Since the appearance of this eagle-headed monster has made the high priest panic, then let this palace... this place be completely Let the ground become chaotic!”
As he said that, [Night Watcher] took out a box half the size of a palm from his clothes... He sneered and pressed a button in the box without thinking.
"What...what is this?" Iben instinctively felt a danger and wanted to get closer, so he couldn't help asking tremblingly.
[Night Watchman] sneered at this time: "Time bomb! I just brought some before entering the desert, just in case... It finally came in handy."
Iben...Iben blinked. The information that appeared in his brain at this time was not what the so-called time bomb did, but...why did this guy go into the desert with such a thing? ?
"So...what kind of bomb is this?" Iben asked subconsciously.
[Night Watcher] said calmly: "Her Royal Highness the Princess of the City of the Sun is probably a guy with a scientific research spirit. She has an independent research laboratory in the palace... Of course, this should not be hidden from the high priest. But I don't know For some reason, the high priest clearly knew but acquiesced to what the princess did."
"Then?"
[Night Watcher] said directly: "In the innermost part of this research room, there is a giant beast hidden... and it is a living giant beast. I am just opening the cage that traps this giant beast."
At this moment, Iben suddenly slapped his head, and suddenly came over and said: "So that's it, that is to say, a giant beast will appear in the palace soon... Oh! Mr. [Night Watchman], you are really full of food. Bad...what!! Giant beast!!"
My fault! !
"I just want a way out." [Night Watch] said calmly: "The life and death of the residents of City of the Sun have nothing to do with me... This is also my way of life. If you don't want to die, just follow me... I will take you leave here."
"I will follow you... Even if I die, I will follow you, Mr. [Nightwatchman]!" Iben said without thinking: "Only by following you can I have wealth! I am not afraid of death... It would be best if I didn't die! "
The room... began to fall apart.
The strange creature with the head of an eagle was not just content with physical collisions. It even opened its mouth and spit out blue-white light... The light was able to penetrate the surrounding metal walls in an instant!
"Xie Jiatu...what are you hiding here?"
[Night Watcher] couldn't help but take a deep breath, grabbed Iben with one hand, and rushed out of here.
…
Metal doors opened one after another in front of the high priest... Behind these automatic doors was a passage that seemed to have no end.
He suddenly stopped, but the metal door in front of him did not open anymore... The high priest turned in a direction, the metal wall next to him opened, and he walked in. It turned out to be an elevator that could lead to the underground.
The elevator descended all the way, going deep into the deepest part of the entire temple... He silently watched everything unfolding on the screen inside the elevator.
"Who on earth woke it up..." The high priest frowned deeper than ever, "Horus..."
The high priest's body suddenly jolted... The elevator had reached the end, stopped, and he quickly walked out of the elevator.
In front of him was a long metal staircase... Under the metal staircase, there was a huge, blue fluorescent pool!
The metal staircase reaches a platform in the center of this huge pool. On this platform, a human-height platform is built.
And just on this platform, a golden scale was placed quietly like this.
The high priest finished walking up the stairs and came to the platform... He casually glanced at the water at his feet and walked directly to the platform casually.
Behind him, in the pool that exuded a faint blue luster, there were faces of people... faces with eyes closed, floating under the water at this time!
No.
Not faces, but... people with their eyes closed and sinking into the pool of water!
