But Jiang Qi saw them disappear after entering here with her own eyes, so naturally she would not be misled. She guessed that in this passage, there should be a [door] similar to the entrance of a secret realm. As long as you find the right location, things will not be troublesome.
But to confirm the location of the door... Jiang Qi also has a little trick.
In fact, she had a guess about the lake that implied golden light, and the behavior that the twins must soak in it.
There must be Samuel's blood in the water of the lake--no doubt about it.
As for the power of the god's blood, it seems to have been seen from the fact that Kokor can obtain the authority equivalent to one-sixth of the abyss just by drinking a small cup of blood.
Kokor is the container chosen by the authority of the abyss, but even so, after accepting the authority of the day, he needs to experience death and rebirth once every thousand years. ——Because the body cannot accommodate such a huge two kinds of power, it is at the limit of collapse. If the replacement is not carried out in the way of reincarnation, it will probably explode like fireworks.
If this is the case even for the devil king, then let alone other "ordinary" existences, what kind of reaction they might have after being exposed to the blood of the gods.
It should be like the pair of six-winged Protoss twins. Even though the blood has been diluted countless times, it is still painful as if it has been ripped apart. There is no part of the body that can be called intact.
And to undergo the irrigation and bathing of the divine blood in advance, on the one hand, is to gradually strengthen their bodies so that they can withstand the mighty power contained in the divine blood; The power of the light element in their bodies has been raised to the extreme.
Yes, Jiang Qi has already found out.
The elder brother among the twins was not originally a magic power of the light attribute, but during these days of immersion, his power attribute undoubtedly changed little by little, and until finally he completely became the appearance of the light attribute.
Perhaps... every high priest of the Protoss has undergone such a "transformation". Jiang Qi thought along this line of thought.
If this is the case, can it be assumed that only when the magical power of the light element in the body is strong enough to a certain extent, is it eligible to step into the secret realm behind this passage?
Jiang Qi will not have any light attribute magic power in her body, Because she herself is the embodiment of the abyss, the deepest dark night in the world and the blood moon in the night sky, no matter how you look at it, she stands in the opposite direction to the "light".
But this does not mean that Jiang Qi has nothing to do with everything in front of her.
She walked along the passage and finally stopped somewhere. The stone wall in front of her didn't look much different from the surrounding ones, but when she approached here, the temporarily left divine seal between Jiang Qi's eyebrows seemed to be ignited, emitting scorching heat.
This feeling is a bit strange, Jiang Qi feels like Samuel has left a signal detector on her body, and the closer to the source of the signal, the more intense the reaction of this detector.
Could it be that... Samuel is behind this wall?
Jiang Qi guessed, relaxed her body, and let the power flowing from the seal of God wrap her temporarily, forming a perfect shell , and the power that belongs to the abyss is peacefully silent to the innermost part of the body, temporarily wrapped by the surface "skin" like the stuffing.
Strange to say, it is clear that the power of the day and the abyss should have nothing to do with each other, and it is the most violent and discordant; but when surrounded by those light elements, Jiang Qi did not feel any discomfort, but felt as if she was soaked in water. In the warm current with just the right temperature, the ironing is incredible.
The girl stared at the stone wall in front of her with her pair of shining golden eyes, and stretched out her hand towards the stone wall.
When her palm just touched the stone wall, the wall, which seemed to have no clue at first, suddenly seemed to be injected with life, and there was even a rumbling sound from the inside that made people feel toothache.
Afterwards, the stone wall was pushed away to the sides, revealing a deep, winding downward tunnel behind it, which looked like a terrifying giant mouth, secretly watching for someone to devour.
Jiang Qi walked down the tunnel.
It's hard to imagine that in this city in the sky that belongs to the day and the gods, there will be such a hidden place that the light can't reach at all, like a dark shadow that is too deep and thick under the light.
It was a darker darkness than anything else, and the trance made Jiang Qi think of the abyss where she was in the invisible abyss when she first came to this world.
She didn't use magic or other means as lighting, only a pair of golden pupils in the darkness shone with a light that couldn't be ignored, enough for her to see the path under her feet clearly.
Jiang Qi walked along this long passage for a long time, and when she felt that she was about to walk through the entire sky city, the passage finally came to an end. Everything in front of her eyes suddenly brightened, even a bit too bright——
Jiang Qi subconsciously raised her hand to block it, and then saw everything in front of her clearly. It was a huge altar.
This altar is buried deep in the ground, and Jiang Qi even suspects that this is the bottom of the entire sky city, and it is the "base" that supports the sky city. The scale of the altar is incomparably grand, at least at a glance, there is no end in sight, almost giving Jiang Qi the illusion that the altar might be spread all over the entire sky city.
And their current position is in the very center of the altar. There is a place where countless magic circles meet, and several protoss who disappeared from the passage before are all here.
They stood around in a circle, and the one surrounded by them... Jiang Qi's pupils shrank slightly after seeing what it was.
- That's a coffin.
The gorgeous, exquisitely decorated coffin, all carved on the outside of the coffin with lines that look very luxurious, is a kind of silent solemnity and solemnity.
But right now, Sariye was stretching out his hand and pushing open the lid of the coffin, revealing the restrained young man surrounded by white lilies that would never fail.
The young man's eyes were closed, his hands were folded and placed flat on his lower abdomen, his long light golden hair was scattered around his body, it looked like a sunbeam, or it was woven with the best gold silk cloth.
Even though your eyes are closed, even though you don't have any movements or expressions, you only need to catch a glimpse of this young man, and you will realize one thing.
This should be a god.
Because what emanates from the young man is an extremely strong divinity. There is no need for anyone to explain and prove it for you. When you see him, you will naturally be able to understand the truth in a strange way.
And after the initial glance was intimidated by the other party's radiance and temperament, when he came back to his senses, he was able to realize more things were wrong. ——It was a dagger stuck in the young man's chest.
Made of pure gold, it is inlaid with luxurious jewels, and on the blade of the dagger is drawn complicated magic patterns with mithril.
This dagger pierced the heart, and at the same time nailed the young man to the coffin, sealing and imprisoning him here. Jiang Qi is no stranger to that young man, because that is the face of Samuel she has seen more than once in [The Corridor of Backthorns]. A god cannot die, even if his heart is pierced so cruelly.
The design of the coffin is very special, because it can be seen that there is golden blood flowing out of the wound-but the blood is not "wasted" at all, and follow the specially designed grooves in the coffin. Be guided to flow to the side next to it.
The base of the coffin is connected to the magic circle nested on the entire altar, and the collected golden blood that belongs to the god flows into the inside of the magic circle, supporting this unknown magic like a power source array operation.
Even Jiang Qi couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes when she saw this scene, let alone the pair of six-winged twins.
"This is...?" Although Suriel actually had an answer in his mind the first time he saw the young man, but that answer was so ridiculous that he himself found it unbelievable. Still chose to ask.
"It's a god." Dorothy shook the scales in her hands, and there was neither sadness nor joy in those blue eyes like the clear sky, "This is the god we serve, the eternal sun in the sky."
" But?" Sevilla covered her lips with one hand, with an expression of surprise and uncertainty on her face, and pointed at the dagger with a strong sense of presence with the other finger, and it was difficult to be very happy for a while organizational language.
Then the pair of brothers and sisters noticed that the four chief priests had turned their heads to watch them at some point. That gaze was clearly peaceful, but for some unknown reason, it seemed to contain some other kind of terror.
If you don't pay attention, if something goes wrong and makes several high priests feel "dissatisfied", they will definitely be killed here. The twins quietly held each other's hand, with such a hunch in their hearts for no reason.
Sariel suddenly gave a "puchi" smile.
"Ah... well, well, why are you being so serious?" The high priest of the City of Flowers had a soft smile on his face, "You guys are scaring our newcomers." "Come on." He turned towards Gemini He beckoned and signaled them to come closer, and came to the side of the coffin, "This is not a terrible story." Gemini hesitated for a while, but moved closer.
It was clear that Sariel was smiling, but they did not dare to disobey each other's words. It was a kind of intuition driven by the instinct to survive. Perhaps this high priest who always put a smile on his face and seemed to be the best at speaking was the most dangerous one.
"Praise the grace of God, thank the Lord for bestowing upon you." He said, "My family is built on the flesh and blood of God, and we have achieved today's glory." The four chief priests all solemnly knelt down towards the coffin in the center , and Gemini was at a loss, and imitated their actions.
Sariel stepped forward on his knees, grabbed the dagger, turned it lightly for a while, and then pulled it out from the chest of the body of God. The golden blood wet his hands, but Sariel didn't seem to notice it at all.
It's like that, just with a kind of chilling smile, holding the dagger and making a slight movement.
Afterwards, he inserted the dagger back along the original wound, and spread his palms towards the twins.
——On his palm lay two slices of flesh as thin as a cicada's wing.
In fact, it is not so much meat as a work of art. It is so thin that it is almost transparent, with a faint golden luster, which looks as beautiful and dazzling as gemstones. Jiang Qi covered her mouth, realizing what it was.
... is the heart.
That is the heart of God.
Jiang Qi was able to realize this, how could the twins, who were so close and completely witnessed the whole process, not be aware of this? They suddenly raised their heads and looked at Sariye, showing extremely shocked expressions.
"What?" However, Sariel still had a smile on his face, and the curvature of the smile on his face did not change even the slightest bit. "Don't you want to get wings?" I thought.
Of course I want to.
There is no protoss who does not want to get wings.
That represents the respect from the gods, and it is also a symbol of strength and status—no matter what kind of desire it is from, adding wings is undoubtedly the end of their pursuit. The high priest of the seven wings, how majestic and lofty.
What's more, although they were born as six-winged protoss, the lives of Suriel and Sevilla may not be as glamorous as the six-winged protoss should have according to the universal perception.
This is not a shady secret, but it is just a pair of orphans who lost their parents, and a family that can be regarded as mean. Although they were never driven out of the house, they were not treated as precious as jade.
However, he is also a child of Six Wings, so naturally it is impossible to let him break away from the family.
In this way, the life is neither good nor bad, but the mental pressure to bear is unavoidable.
This is not a new thing to say, but it will happen in the city of the sky—it will happen among the protoss who have always called themselves "judges" and used to monitor the entire world in this name a long time ago , there is a kind of extremely absurd and ridiculous.
That's why he desperately wanted to pass the assessment, and wanted to seize this opportunity to become a master in one fell swoop.
If only the six wings are not enough to obtain the desired "freedom", then what about the seven wings?
With this in mind, Sevilla signed up without hesitation when she publicized the matter in the priesthood . How could Suriel, the elder brother, watch her go alone, so he naturally followed her.
And they ended up qualifying side-by-side once again, as they have at any time in centuries past.
Sariel's hand was still held out, with a peaceful smile on his face, waiting for the brother and sister to make the final decision.
Sevilla turned her head, glanced at her elder brother, then gritted her teeth, stepped forward without saying a word, twisted a piece of flesh from the palm of the black-haired young man with two fingers, and closed her eyes with a horizontal stroke, he put it in his mouth.
All the slippery, nausea... or other feelings that might have been imagined did not appear. The meat was so thin, and the moment it fell into her mouth, it melted like water, and it slid down her throat into her stomach without even swallowing.
Sevilla couldn't tell whether the rich floral fragrance left in her mouth was brought by the piece of meat just now, or because the coffin in front of her was stuffed with white lilies.
But those are no longer important.
The girl let out painful roars and screams from her mouth. The body that should have "adapted" and "accustomed" to the behavior of soaking in the pool these days once again fed back the intolerable terrible pain at this moment .
Her body looked like it was about to crack, and there were countless cracks in her skin—but the strange thing was that nothing happened to her in the end, because a layer of faint golden light emerged from under the cracked flesh, Like a layer of film covering it, or a barely maintained thread, it barely maintains the integrity of the body.
This process lasted for a long, long time. During this period, Suriel did not want to go to Sevilla's side, but when he just had the idea of taking action, he hadn't even put it into practice. When he moved, he was firmly grasped by a hand like iron tongs.
"Stand here quietly and do nothing." Asachel said coldly.
"But my sister...!" Suriel tried to break free from Asachel's grasp, but found that it was not a force he could resist.
Sevilla's screams have been lingering in her ears, but her voice is now gradually hoarse, as if she has gradually lost all her strength. Asachel frowned impatiently.
"Enough," he said.
The young man's tone could be considered calm, but it was full of forbearance and restraint, like a volcano that seemed safe but could erupt at any time: "Your sister will be fine." "
Because ... We, who are so despicable, believe in that such a merciful god. "
Almost at the moment when his words fell, there was the sound of wings fluttering from the side. Suriel turned his head, but what he saw was stretched out from behind Serviala, which was different from the The seventh wing of the original six wings.
Her face still maintains a painful look, but that expression gradually calms down.
Afterwards, the girl opened those green eyes, which seemed to faintly flow " Sevilla?
Are you okay?" Asachel let go of the boy in his hand, and Suriel rushed up almost immediately, hugging his sister Look left and right. Servia looked at him blankly, and then without warning, big tears flowed from her eyes.
"Servia? What's the matter?
" She nodded, and then shook her head.
While eating that piece of meat, Sevilla also saw a lot of memories that should not belong to her. "Brother. She cried and said, "So we are such a despicable race...?" There is no god race, and there has never been a god race. They are called "the clan of gods" because they have received the favor of God.
But after a long time, even they themselves have already forgotten all this, delusional that they have the most inseparable connection with the sun in the sky. From that day on, they became [Protoss] and took over the world
***
Gods have always been lonely existences, with no relatives, let alone clans. But one day, a desperate person appeared in front of the gods and knelt down to pray to him.
"Please allow us to Survive in your territory. "They said, "We will never bother you, we only need a very small piece of land to survive on the very edge of the territory you rule. "
The gods of the sun know this race...they are very weak beings.
They are not like any other race that has appeared in this world. They have no adaptability to the elements, no strong physique, no inherited knowledge, and no keen perception of nature—no matter which aspect it is.
Their bodies are so fragile and delicate that wounds can appear with just a light touch, the
sun can burn them during the day, and the temperature at night can make them shiver from the cold, and even get sick and die because of it.
Such a race is like a candle flickering under a storm, which will be blown out completely at some point.
If left alone, will this candle be extinguished today?
God does not live in buildings on the ground, God has his own dwelling place, which is also his divine weapon. The city of the sky is high above Yundun, magnificent and magnificent, and the four seasons are like spring. The scenery in the city is divided into four parts, which are wind, flowers, snow and moon, spring, summer, autumn and winter.
The world seems to be condensed in his city, which is more splendid every year, waiting for another owner of this city to open his eyes and welcome the most beautiful bloom.
There will be no natural disasters, no magical beasts in the city of the sky, and there will always be a scorching sun, which should be a first-class rich sky.
Here, even the slightest breeze can lead to a peaceful and peaceful life.
They prayed to God and swore that they would never enter God's city. All it takes is to give them a little, out-of-town space to hang out and curl up in, and they appreciate it. God then had compassion.
He said, "Okay."
