Half an hour later, Gu Tie, Keshava, Bairam Alivia and Jekong sat together and had a strange dinner. The Brotherhood's pursuers did not come, and they were unable to cross. The abyss is still an issue of jurisdiction between different continents. The sky over Beidalu is temporarily quiet. The sun sets in the west. What hangs in the western sky now is the crimson Iecotel. Gu Tie still can't figure out the three different colors. What exactly does the sun mean to the world, but there is no denying that a crimson sunset looks spectacular.
The joy of reuniting with the teacher, the sadness of witnessing the sacrifices of Zuta and Zha, the excitement of seeing Jekong again and the guilt of watching Hasegawa die of poisoning, all kinds of intense emotions overwhelmed Yona's soul. At this time, the 17-year-old boy Like a tired chicken, he retracted into a warm and safe corner of his body and fell asleep, leaving Gu Tie alone to face the increasingly incomprehensible world. Gu Tie chewed the tasteless wheat cake and thought about what he should do. Regarding the matter, the top priority now was to confirm the identities of the people in front of him. He secretly made up his mind.
"This cake is terrible," old man Keshava complained, "and so is the wine. As the president of the Association of Astrologers, can't you bring some good food over?"
Bailang blushed and said: "You know the environment of the camp, uncle. Just be patient for the time being and wait until Uncle Batsion arrives. He will come to the Northern Continent from the late Han Dynasty with a large amount of supplies."
"Bah, he is an unreliable guy. It is better to expect him to arrive in time than to expect the star god to show up and cause a heavy rain of red wine." Keshava spit out a mouthful of cake crumbs and pointed at the sky angrily.
At this time, Gu Tie pretended not to care and muttered: "Did you watch yesterday's game between the Lakers and Bucks? Last year's No. 1 pick, Richard Philipstone, performed terribly, only scoring 8 points and 6 points. A rebound was not as good as his rookie season. The Lakers broke through the salary cap to sign him. They really lost a lot. Instead of watching this boring game, it is better to watch the TV news. It is everywhere now. It's news about war. Africa seems to be very lively. It's almost like the plot of "Band of Brothers."" He stared at the three people opposite him, paying attention to reading each other's body language, which was completely hidden to those without professional training. Natural fluctuations in emotions are almost impossible. As long as these people resonate with what is happening in reality, they will inevitably show their flaws.
However, the result was beyond his expectation. Old man Keshava was stunned for a moment and glared: "You must have taken the wrong medicine. You are talking nonsense." The president of the Astrologer Association smoothed things over and said: "Uncle, brother Jonah." It's just that he's too tired. He doesn't even know what he's talking about. Right? Instead of blaming him, it's better to finish the meal quickly and set off. There's still a long way to go to the camp." Both of them reacted differently. There is no flaw, as if he didn’t understand a word of what he said just now. If this is some kind of performance, it is undoubtedly an Oscar-worthy acting. Gu Tie would rather believe in another explanation: Keshava and Bailang and Bailang are not descendants, they are natives of the world.
This made him suspicious. An hour ago, Hasegawa Bensaka made it clear that "reinforcements" were coming. Could it be that this reinforcements were not sent by the Advent organization of the so-called "betrayers"? Then which force did the astrologer in front of him belong to? ,,,Of course, Ye Kong, who was sitting next to him, was still staring into the distance. If he was the descendant, he must be a guy whose personality was exactly the same as that of the southerners. He was extremely bored. Gu Tie stared at him for a while, and then gave up on finding out. Flawed efforts.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I was reciting a spell just now, about the increase of spiritual power," he lied casually, and Gu Tie changed the topic: "Jekong will attack people when he sees people from the Brotherhood, right, then teacher Do you feel unsafe staying with him, after all..." His eyes looked at Keshava's collarbone. In one of Yona's vague memories, on a sunny afternoon sixteen years ago, A group of Brotherhood soldiers rushed into the home of "Heretic Blood" and killed the owner and his wife. The infant lying in swaddling clothes survived, and was finally carried back to the Astrology Tower by the old man with messy hair and beard. At that time, Keshava There is indeed a crimson two-headed bird tattoo on his shoulder. Yona regards this memory as a fantasy when he was in a coma, but Gu Tie would rather believe that this is true. Keshava must have an inseparable relationship with the Brotherhood. He needs A little aside.
"Ah, you peeked at me taking a shower, boy," old man Keshava said with a rare blush: "I have a tattoo on my body, but that was more than ten years ago. At that time, I secretly gave him a tattoo for research funds. When I worked in the Yelizawetan of the Zavi Empire, everyone had to have a tattoo. Later, after I saved enough money, I went to St. Bolun to build an astrology tower on the red clay plain. Hey, who was young? I've never been crazy, hehe..."
Gu Tie felt that the old man was not telling the truth, but he was not lying either. He laughed and said, "By the way, teacher, I have a prophecy here, which talks about the 'new son of Aerion'..." Aerion is a city in the Northern Continent, right? What is its story and what are we going to do in the Northern Continent?"
Bairam Alivia said: "It seems that you did not receive our message, Brother Jonah, a war has begun. Everyone thinks that the scale of this war will be comparable to the two ancient wars, so it is called It's 'World War III,'"
Gu Tie was not surprised by this: "On one side are the Red Owl Brotherhood who want to rule the world, and on the other side are people who are not so willing to be ruled, right?"
Bailang scratched his head and said: "You can say it this way." He drew a world map on the ground and introduced: "The war in the Western Continent started earliest. As an agent of the Brotherhood, Emperor Yelizawetan led the The Wei Empire's ground dragoons have flattened thirteen countries. So far, only the northernmost Republic of Ebenezer is still struggling to support itself. Due to the terrain and many powerful guardians, the Zawi people are trapped there. The stalemate ended and the great cause of unification failed to be completed; the war in the Eastern Continent had just started. The Later Qin State, under the command of the Regent and the Deputy Deacon of the Brotherhood, Esepurti, sent troops to the four countries at the same time. The Liang, Sui, and Late Han Dynasties There was no resistance in the past; the southern continent was more complicated. The Brotherhood and Brahma, the leader of the Vedic Kingdom, heard that his vitality was seriously injured after being assassinated, and his strength dropped sharply. They formed an offensive and defensive alliance. Vedic will face the enemy. Attack the Tocharian Empire, and there are aristocratic forces supported by the Brotherhood in Tocharor that are ready to usurp the throne of Emperor Isaiah Bayink. Once the war begins, it is likely to develop in the direction the Brotherhood hopes, and above the water What's surging underneath is the Brotherhood's total control over the Anglican Guild and the Magician Association among the five major guilds. The two strongest guilds in the world have become their tools. That is a very terrifying power."
"I guess only the northern continent is a pure land, because Ebenezer in the west and the Late Han Dynasty in the east are not controlled by the Brotherhood. The regular army cannot cross the holy river to the north. This is why you are here. It's not just that simple. Right," Gu Tie said in a deep voice.
Keshava and Bailang looked at each other, and the young astrology master sighed: "You are right, Uncle Keshava and Jekong found clues about the imprint of Umang, the God of Death,"
Having said this, Ye Kong's eyes suddenly swept across everyone, and everyone felt that their skin stung as if it had been scratched by a knife. Bailang stuck out his tongue and continued: "I didn't expect this clue to lead to a very shocking news. For this news, people who do not want to be enslaved by the Brotherhood have gathered together and are ready to use all their strength to find the legendary item, the artifact that may bring the dawn of victory in the war."
"The artifact, the engraved seal of the gods, is not the engraved 'Wumang Black Mang' of Wumang, but another one," Gu Tie couldn't help but sit up straight.
Keshava smacked his lips and said: "Of course not, you stupid boy, I remember telling you that there are seven engravings of the gods circulating in the world, and most of them are missing, but two of them are the most special. The 'Umang Black Mang' of the god of death, Umang, is a shadow artifact that cannot be seen or touched unless it meets special conditions; while the 'Olizonga' of the god of agriculture, Ori, has the most powerful of the seven artifacts. The power, because it is said that the six artifacts are used by humans, and Orizonga is an artifact controlled by the ancient dragon. Only the dragon can exert its majestic power to change the shape of the continent.,,It sounds very It’s a bad lie, but everyone is willing to believe it, after all, no one has seen this artifact,”
Gu Tie glanced at the red-haired southerner: "I got a piece of news: if all six artifacts are collected, the six towers in the Eastern Continent can become the key to the door, and the disappeared seventh tower will appear, invisible. The seventh artifact will also appear,"
Keshava rolled his eyes: "Really, there is such a legend... I do know the reason why Ye Kong attacked the Brotherhood. During those young and frivolous years, I heard that the Brotherhood owned a piece of clothing from the gods. The seal is the invisible black light. They sealed the artifact in a silent and lightless chamber and sent heavy troops to guard it. This way, even though it cannot be seen or touched, the artifact will not disappear."
"Ah, then who put the artifact into the secret room, guarding something whose existence cannot be confirmed? Isn't this a funny paradox," Gu Tie said strangely.
"Who knows," the old man shrugged, "but I guess as long as we find the other six artifacts, no matter where the black light is hiding, it can be summoned to us,"
Byron Alivia continued: "The clues that the uncle found pointed out that the 'Olizonga' of the god of agriculture, Oli, was forgotten in the tree city of Aerion. As the victor of the second ancient war, The Eastern Dragon did not use this artifact, but hid it in Aerion's dragon treasure house and sealed it forever. Later, the losing side's Holy Agreement launched the ultimate forbidden curse 'Last Aurora', completely destroying the Aeren Alliance and The northern continent became a cold and uninhabited land, and the artifact was buried in the ruins until now."
"So now many people are gathering in the camp, ready to set out to find this artifact to compete with the powerful Brotherhood. Let's go, boy," Keshava stood up and said.
Gu Tie still didn't understand many things, but he also understood a lot of things. When it got dark, the four people buried Hasegawa's body and headed north. Gu Tie walked at the end of the team and said to Ye Kong beside him. : "I heard that the CPI index has risen again,"
As expected, the red-haired man showed no reaction.
Gu Tie sighed: "I know, you can only hold that one thing in your mind. I once promised you that I would help you find a way to resurrect humans, whether it is the head of the room or something too important to you. That woman... Believe me, we are not far from the answer, from the resurrection of Sarasvati..."
Ye Kong suddenly turned his head and looked at him, a storm rising in his gray eyes.
"Lugou, this is our agreement," the fifth-level astrologer said,
