Wasteland Echoer

"What should we do now? Go to the so-called ruins without making any preparations?" Adaloni asked. Although as a dragon, he has an arrogance in his bones that is superior to mortals, but in fact, starting from Turns out, his character is quite cautious.

"I know what you are worried about, Adaloni." "Fu Bing" turned around, looked at Adaloni with a smile, patted his shoulder with one hand, and stroked the strong wings with the other. explained:

"It's the best of the three of us. When I interpreted the information behind the dark magic power through 'Returning to the First' just now, I didn't read the existence of danger. "The Dark Book" says: Era Six: Even if the God of Darkness is defeated Wrapped in darkness, its heart cannot be corroded by any force other than the Creator. Gods will not deceive, let alone deceive their believers and believers, but the dark gods allow humans who wield the power of darkness to mislead others in order to survive. , after all, to be born in darkness is to give up many benefits in the light.”

"So you mean that the Lord of the Night will not deceive you, and there is no danger there?" Adaloni said in disbelief.

"Of course, and I can feel that the ruins will not be very powerful. We will be back soon. We have to be the first to take advantage of the fact that the people sent by Yaroslav and the Patriarch of St. Ivan's Cathedral are not aware of it. In the past, we must at least find His relics." "Fu Bing" raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with unnoticeable joy and excitement:

"The Lord of the Night has just experienced an unexpected and major failure. I estimate that behind these relics there may be some kind of transaction that involves both danger and opportunity."

"trade?"

"That's right, a deal." "Fu Bing" further analyzed:

"It has been recorded in many books describing extraordinary events and sequential gods. The Lord of the Night is accustomed to meeting the world as a young man. This time, he used a 'monster-like' body to come to the world, or there was something major. Either the event occurred or he accepted a mission from a higher dimensional power.

"The Lord of the Night is already the God of Sequence 2. There is only one eternal and everlasting dark cloud above him. That is, the creator of the existing time and space, the creator of continents and planets, and the origin of all life. The Creator, the Originator of the Elements, the Great God Sleeping in the Nightmare, the Final Arbitrator of Rules and 'Principles'."

"It's weird, there are so many people on the Lord of Darkness' head. Even if you say it like this, we can't remember it." Adaloni frowned.

"Hey, you should read more, Adaloni." "Fu Bing" said angrily:

"When you return to Binglin City, whether you want to return to the East or not, promise me to go to the Federal Library a few more times, okay? The titles I just mentioned belong to one person, that is, the use of God and Demon Source Power Writers often refer to the Creator.

"However, of the two assumptions I just made, I prefer the latter. You know, the Lord of the Night has not appeared in this world for a long time. Compared with the current depletion of magic source power, the third The magic source power in the second era can be said to be abundant, just like seeing water droplets in the sea.

"At that time, those magicians who were very familiar with controlling the magic power were able to do everything that technology could do after the advent of the steam age. However, because the current magic power is too thin, people think that the complicated and complex things in the past are , unpredictable and wonderful magic skills are just witnesses of people’s abundant imagination at that time.”

"That's true." Adaloni agreed:

"At that time, flying was the most basic ability. As for other skills that freed the body to go anywhere, it was just a very simple required course. After I came out of Sener Prison, I always felt a heavy feeling. A sense of powerlessness and an indescribable fatigue linger in my spiritual realm. Now that I think about it, it should be due to the significant reduction in the magic source power in this wasteland era. "

"Yes, if the magic source power is sufficient, you can naturally maintain the form of the 'giant dragon clan' without any scruples, and you will not rely on the 'Oli Steel Stone' to open the Dragon Realm when the Emperor of the Khitanris, 'Lucky One', After you are released from the illusory prison, you can only maintain this half-human, half-animal 'half-dragon' form." "Fu Bing" continued:

"Okay, without further ado, let's go over and take a look."

Following the information they had just grabbed from the filth on the black ground by relying on the "Return to the First" skill, Adaloni and Anastasili followed "Fu Bing" and planned to get out of the Khitanris building complex.

While walking through the dry and cold buildings, the three of them discovered that the buildings here looked more decadent, dirty and dilapidated than when there was plenty of sunshine in the morning. The entrance to each building was covered with The building is filled with stones and bricks made of the same material. The walls are cracked one after another, and all the paint painted on the surface long ago has fallen off, showing a gradually developing decadence, which is very similar to this amazing building that is gradually stiffening and collapsing. A hopeless wasteland world.

Fortunately, due to the "harmful" fog that lasted for many days and the destruction of the Lord of the Night's "monster body", there were no more beasts and "alien creatures" here. The three of them didn't go far when they saw a place A river flowing with clear water.

Listening to the clear and sweet sound of the river washing against the shore, Adaloni discovered that after the thick fog receded, the black branches that were forced to wither and lose all their leaves had begun to extend outwards, some as thin as spider silk, or The branches as thick as tentacles have begun to sprout rare new shoots.

After jumping over the river, the three found a path among the yellow fallen leaves and bushes.

Due to the fog, the leaves of the trees fell off, and a simple relic originally hidden behind the path appeared in front of the three.

Walking to the simple relic easily, "Fu Bing" found that there was only a sculpture depicting the image of the Lord of Darkness and a relatively simple two-story Crusad-style rural log cabin.

Walking into the ruins, looking at the densely packed intertwined branches on the top and the pile of dead leaves and broken branches on the ground, Adaloni sighed: "No wonder the explorers who occasionally passed by here in recent years have never discovered these ruins. The branches and leaves of these trees were originally covering the sky and the sun, but they withered because of the sudden fog. And that sculpture, if there is not enough strong dark power, it will not be able to play its role of modifying the cognition of passers-by and sending them wrong signals. "I think this should be the place where the relics of the Lord of Darkness are stored. This small relic must be His former residence. " "Will the gods live in such a shabby, dilapidated and simple place, Captain Fubing? This does not conform to the character of the gods. As far as I know, the gods preached by the patriarchs of the Orthodox Patriarchs are always accustomed to magnificent temples, bright candlelight and the praise of believers, because the praise and worship of believers are the foundation of their existence. "Anastashiri looked around and asked in confusion.

"Fubing" did not answer him immediately, but walked slowly to the statue of the Lord of Darkness, looked at the lovely face with sharp eyes depicted in the sculpture, and answered:

"Other gods more or less represent the things that humans cannot get even after hard work, such as light and eternal life. But darkness does not require any desire or effort, it will always exist in any corner of the sad world we live in.

"Even if you have worked very hard, overcome almost all difficulties, and reached the highest peak that ordinary people cannot reach, darkness will jump out inadvertently to harm you and create endless troubles for you. Moreover, meanness and fraud are the mainstream of human survival, and violence and evil are the enduring principles of mankind. Therefore, the Lord of Darkness does not need anyone's prayers to maintain its existence, or in other words, anyone may be praying or practicing the "reason" of darkness at any time."

"Human nature is evil and dark, and there is nothing wrong with this." Yada Luo Ni said indignantly Said:

"If the humans in the First Era had not exiled our dragon race to the illusory dragon territory, if the royal family of Cruz had not imprisoned me in the Sener Prison, perhaps I would not have experienced these tragedies, nor would I have lost contact with Light Hain."

"So, sometimes I think that the 'heartless virus' is indeed a transformation of humans. It makes those humans shrouded in darkness and desire completely crazy and self-destruct, and allows those who believe in justice and light to stick to their great beliefs." "Fu Bing" said, this is a rare positive evaluation of humans.

Then, he stood in front of the sculpture of the Lord of Darkness, closed his eyes, tapped his forehead and left and right chests with his hands, and made the standard action before praying to the gods in the bishop, crossed his hands on his chest, and chanted the words in the ancient Central language that praised the Lord of Darkness.

After doing all this, he took Adaroni and the other person to push open the relatively new wooden door and entered the room.

The furnishings in the entire log cabin were no different from those in a Cruzde country home, with wooden tables and chairs, sofas, and a dusty fireplace nearby, and a metal pipe leading to the top for exhaust.

Hanging in the middle of the wall in the house were portraits of Ivan XXII, Cruzde's greatest emperor, and Alexander Rurik, the founder of the Cruzde Federation.

After a careful observation and feeling the fluctuations of the magic source power, "Fubing" said:

"This place is ordinary, it doesn't seem like there are extraordinary things, and it doesn't seem like there are ordered monsters."

While he was wondering, Anastasia's voice came from behind him and Adaroni:

"Captain Fubing, there is a staircase here, it goes down, it should lead to the basement."

"Oh? Go and have a look." "Fubing" ordered.

The three of them passed through the narrow staircase, through a dim passage with only brass candlesticks hanging on the walls on both sides, and came to a room that still looked very narrow.

However, when the three people just entered, the unidentified metal material on the ground with exquisite carvings of kerosene lamp suddenly lit up, and the flame burned straight up without any influence, which instantly brightened the room.

At this time, "Fu Bing" discovered that there was a booth in the middle of the room with a picture similar to the one on the "Karov" door, and on it, a mask was placed upright.
