While we were chatting, suddenly, a burst of high temperature rose from somewhere underground.
Along with this high temperature, there is also an aversion to cold.
That's right, although it was shrouded in high temperature for a moment, Xing Liuli did not capture any atmosphere of "fire", "light" and other elements from this high temperature.
This high temperature seems to come from another dimension and directly affects the senses of everyone present.
"This feeling..." In addition, Xing Liuli also felt a familiar feeling, which was the source of this cold feeling.
Negative energy.
This is the concept of "shadow" that Aaron mentioned.
"Yo?" Aaron raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
"It seems that everything is not lost." Little Estella, who was sitting on Aaron's shoulder, shook her fair little feet and said in a calm tone.
"The high temperature from higher dimensions and the deep but not violent negative energy are interesting." Aaron said and continued to move forward.
"Woo!" Yue Tomb was swinging in the basketball bag like an unripe gourd baby, urging Xing Liuli to follow quickly.
"Yes, yes, you uncle." Xing Liuli glanced at Yue Tomb and said in an exaggerated tone.
There was no way, now that the little clay figurine was a noble wounded soldier and a comrade who had shared hardships before, Xing Liuli could only take good care of this "big brother" who was extremely willful in his normal state.
The group of people continued downward, and as they went deeper, the road quickly became clearer, and they no longer encountered some congestion that required Aaron to manually remove.
It is obviously a complete passage into the ruins itself.
The temperature was still rising. Alon and Estela turned a blind eye. Yue Tomb's senses were dull and his endurance was extremely high. Xing Liuli was miserable and had already begun to try to use his own power to cool himself down.
However, it was of no use. This high temperature penetrated directly into the depths of his consciousness, as if burning his soul.
Even if the body is completely frozen, this degree cannot affect the deeper strength at all.
Xing Liuli unconsciously put on the magic costume. With the liberation of her power, her power level increased, and the torture caused by the high temperature was slightly relieved, but the discomfort still lingered in her heart.
"Huh, what on earth is this?" Xing Liuli couldn't help but ask.
"I have an impression, but I need further confirmation." Aaron reached out and tapped his temple.
In order to no longer let Xing Liuli suffer chronic torture, Alon took her to speed up the pace.
Soon, they left the passage and entered a vast darkness.
And in this darkness, there is a very conspicuous light, shining straight down from the darkness above with no visible source, covering an area.
Xing Liuli looked from a distance and found that it seemed to be... a person?
When he came close to the beam of light, Xing Liuli could see the other party's appearance clearly.
She couldn't help but hold her breath.
It was a beautiful girl with long black slightly curly hair. Some red hair could be faintly seen between the long black hair, revealing a slightly inhuman temperament. Her face was stained with dried but still bright red blood, as if
Flowers bloomed on the left half of her face, but they did not affect the girl's beauty, they only made her face more charming.
Compared to the girl's face, what she was wearing pales in comparison. A plain black robe covered the girl's fair skin, with only a tiny hint of snow-white exposed through the rips on it. The robe was stained with dust.
It was so tattered that it looked like a stain on the girl's body.
Such a lovely girl, wading in the light, closed her eyes tightly, as if she was just sleeping.
But there is no doubt that even with the strange high temperature surrounding it, Xing Liuli can clearly feel that this is a corpse with no temperature, no life response, no mental response, and no soul fluctuations.
She felt an inexplicable sadness coming from it.
"This is..." Xing Liuli murmured.
Aaron stared at it for a while, then stepped forward and looked closely at the body: "The cause of death was multiple punctures with sharp objects and all the internal organs were torn, but..."
He stretched out a hand and raised it above the body, and a white light shrouded it downwards.
As he read more profound information, Aaron did not have doubts in his heart.
"How?" Xing Liuli asked.
"This corpse was the agent of God during his lifetime." Aaron said.
"God's agent?" Xing Liuli chewed on this unfamiliar vocabulary, waiting for Aaron's explanation.
"Those who are favored by the gods and are watched by them are called the favored ones of the gods. And in the sporadic records of the ignorant era, the scholars of my time discovered a mortal creature who accepted the power of the gods more completely than the favored ones of the gods.
a belief system.
"That is the agent of the gods. They directly inherit a part of the gods, or turn themselves into the incarnation of the gods to gain the authority to directly exercise the power of the gods. This is the most primitive and fundamental belief in that ignorant era.
The resulting belief system. Although it is a belief system, it actually has nothing to do with the power of belief, because those who use this method are either blasphemers who steal the power of the gods, or they are the most direct darlings of the gods."
Starting from Aaron's era, and so far in the modern era of the Broken Gold Age, as he has perceived, the mature belief system is to build a bridge with the gods through faith. The power of faith is the power extended from the spiritual will, and the level is not low.
And this power is extremely convenient for gods.
They can influence believers through sufficiently reliable faith channels, receive messages sent by believers in prayer at all times, and even temporarily project their own power directly onto believers.
Compared with this ordinary belief system, the relationship between the agent system and the target god is closer, and the power obtained after success is undoubtedly closer to the essence of God. Even the agent is already superior to mortal creatures.
, the essence is separated from human existence.
It can be said that he is an angel serving God in the true sense.
But to separate a part of the body and give it to a weak creature, or to transform a creature into an incarnation of oneself, and an incarnation with enough power, even a god or even an old god will need to spend some time if he is not an outside god who specializes in this way.
Mental effort.
Therefore, those who could become agents in that ignorant era were undoubtedly extremely capable, either strong enough to make decisions about the gods, or of sufficient value to the gods.
However, if this girl was the agent during her lifetime, then Aaron would have even more doubts.
"The life essence of the agent tends to be the god who is the source of power, unless the same level of power cannot kill him. However, the wounds on this corpse are just very ordinary sharp injuries. It stands to reason that as long as she wants to, a thought
These wounds can be healed.”
Aaron said in confusion.
"But she still died. She died from injuries caused by these ordinary sharp weapons." Xing Liuli continued, "Is it because of these negative energies?" Feeling the rich negative energy hidden in the high temperature, Xing Liuli also had control over it.
The power of negative energy is still difficult to adapt to.
Different shades have different emphasis.
Although Xing Liuli has no memory of her previous life, the shadow bred in her sinful blood undoubtedly symbolizes "despair of death."
In nature, the shadow on her body is even more violent, wishing to drag all the living beings in contact with them into their weeping ranks.
And the shadow in this high temperature is deeper and less obvious. It seems that it wants to suppress all the sorrow in the heart and not let anyone notice it, but as long as it breaks out, it will be destruction...
"No, these negative energies were generated when she died and accumulated and precipitated after her death. They were not the reason for her death in the first place." Aaron stroked his chin, as if thinking about something, and then said.
"Did something happen to Rossos?"
"I feel that the name is unusual. Do you recognize the source of her power?" Estela said.
"Yes." Aaron confirmed, "An ordinary god, oh, according to your understanding of the description, it is a completely divine life. The honorary name is 'Lord of the Fierce Sun', but that was already my era.
According to archaeological excavations, His honorific name in the ignorant era was 'Black Sun'."
"It doesn't sound like a good thing." Xing Liuli felt this instinctively.
"Then I should be even less of a good person." Estela, the "Mother of Parasitism and Caves", glanced at her and said.
"You are indeed... not." Xing Liuli said frankly.
"Well, this is probably true for mortal things." Estela expressed her understanding.
"Is this child the Lord of the Blazing Sun, or the agent of the Dark Sun?"
"The power that is constantly coming out of her that affects the surroundings is familiar to me. It is indeed the power of Roses. However, the source has disappeared. Even if this substantial power exists, I cannot feel the power of Roses.
The traces left in this world." Aaron affirmed.
Dead?
This is not a very surprising thing. When the ordinary god is at its peak, it only has cats or huskies that are slightly difficult to deal with. If you want to kill them, you can just grab the main body and kill them easily. But if you want to do this
That requires at least the strength of the old gods or above. However, after such a long history, there are not many old gods who can walk freely in this world, let alone those above the old gods.
It's a new puzzle.
Thinking about it, Aaron packed up the girl's body and took it away.
"What do you want to do?" Xing Liuli asked.
"The body of God's Agent is full of top-notch magic materials, how can it be wasted?" Aaron said matter-of-factly.
