Chapter 122 Unreasonable Details
"Here, which one is Grossel?" In the dream, Leonard looked at the one in front of him blankly.
There was a huge bonfire surrounded by a dozen upright cyclops with grey-blue skin that looked indistinguishable to him.
Frankly speaking, I wouldn't be able to recognize the "faceless man" without the ability... To me, if there is no difference in age, hairstyle, height, scars, clothing, maturity, giants all look the same... Klein muttered a few words in his heart, and looked sideways at Miss Justice very calmly, as if saying that you are an "audience", which shouldn't be difficult for you.
Audrey raised her finger and pointed to a giant who was drinking, and from time to time raised his voice and yelled twice to express his praise:
"That's Grossel.
"It seems that in the customs of the giants, expressing affirmation and appreciation is not clapping, but roaring. The louder the roaring, the higher the degree of praise."
Miss "Justice" is acting like a folklorist now... Fortunately, it's just yelling, not singing, otherwise the noise will be more serious. Obviously, the giants here are not good at rhythm, and the yelling just now has no sense of rhythm... Klein nodded slightly, and said to Audrey the Justice:
"Let's start guiding."
When Audrey stepped forward, Leonard stepped back, raised his right hand, stroked his chin and said:
"Tell me, in the second era, which extraordinary race widely possesses the extraordinary characteristics of the 'dark night' pathway."
"Isn't it the magic wolf?" Klein glanced at Leonard, wondering if the poet student had contracted the traditional disease of "Nighthawks"—poor memory.
"I know." Leonard kept the same posture from before, and said with a slightly weird expression, "Then how do they play the role of 'Midnight Poet'? Or, at that time, the name of the potion was 'Midnight Screamer'?"
"In the beginning, there was no name for the potion..." Klein was accidentally led astray by Leonard, and the scene of this guy squatting on the ground and howling at the moon suddenly appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help whispering One sentence, "This may be more suitable for you, no need to write poetry, very simple."
The corner of Leonard's mouth twitched and said:
"There are also types of poets, and I am a singing type."
While the two were chatting, Audrey's guidance gradually advanced, and Grossel's dreams successively showed places such as "Forest of Decline", "Desolate Tunnel", a corner of "Royal Court of Giants", Dawn Town, and the Kingdom of Gold.
Since Grossel is not an attendant of the giant king and other "gods", he can only occasionally see these high-ranking existences when he is on duty in the "Forest of Decay" or some palaces and passages in the royal court, and he dare not look directly at them, so he must kneel down and bury them. He bowed his head to greet them, so the images of the giant king Almir, the giant queen Omebella, and the giant king's eldest son "God of Dawn" Badhir were not intuitively presented in the dream, but only existed in the form of portraits.
Similarly, Grossel knows very few secrets, and his grasp of history and the world situation is not as good as that of "Elf Singer" Siatas. However, an interesting point is that in the "Royal Court of Giants" and the giant family, "Betrayer" is synonymous with Sunya Solem,
They claimed that it was the ancient god who betrayed the alliance and caused Lilith, the ancestor of the blood clan, to fall.
Klein was deeply suspicious of this, because the irritable Sunya Solem was obviously not good at this kind of thing.
The "Queen of Disasters" seems to have that ability, but the problem is that it is very difficult to hide what she is planning from her spouse, the real ancient god, Sunya Solem... In comparison, the Giant King It is more reasonable for Almir to be a traitor... During Klein's rough analysis, Audrey changed the direction of guidance, trying to let Grossel show what he had seen and heard outside the "Royal Court of Giants".
It's a pity that this giant left the royal court, passed through Chenxi Town, and arrived in the Kingdom of Gold not long ago. He got a travel note and entered it in the book. He didn't know much about the customs and people of the corresponding area.
"Currently the most valuable piece of information is how to avoid the front and enter the interior from the 'Forest of Decay' and 'Desolate Tunnel' after going deep into the area where the 'Royal Court of Giants' is located from 'Afternoon Town'." Audrey finished the guide, Walking back to Klein and Leonard, "This will be very useful for little 'Sun' and their next exploration."
"Well, we can tell him this at the next meeting." Klein nodded and said.
He was about to propose to enter the collective subconscious sea of the world in the book through Grossel's dream, when Audrey suddenly looked back and said as if thinking:
"There's one detail that doesn't make sense."
"What details?" Leonard seriously recalled what he saw and heard just now, but found nothing suspicious.
"Justice" Audrey glanced at "The World" and said:
"Among the things related to the burial of the giant king Almir's father and mother in the 'Forest of Decay', the rule that only the ancient god can enter is very unreasonable."
Klein didn't notice any problems with this detail at first, but after being mentioned by Miss Justice, he suddenly had some thoughts, and said after deliberation:
"The giant king's father and mother are equivalent to the ancestors of the giant family. Normally, they should be the objects of sacrifice and worship by the whole family..."
"Yes, no matter which race there is, there is a certain amount of ancestor worship, and the giants are no exception. From Grossel's dream, we can see that these guardians often worship the two ancestors by themselves outside the 'Forest of Decay' " Audrey nodded in agreement and said, "If there are no other factors, the Giant King should occasionally organize the key training subjects in the clan to worship the ancestors, instead of stipulating that they can only enter by themselves."
"Perhaps there is great danger hidden in the 'Decadent Forest'. Aren't the oldest giants all crazy, tyrannical, and irrational? After they die, their corpses pollute the surrounding environment and affect the entire forest. It's not too difficult to understand things." Leonard gave his guess.
Audrey and Klein shook their heads at the same time, denying this statement.
"If it's just danger or pollution, the queen of giants, Omebella, and the 'God of Dawn' Badhier can obviously resist effectively, and with the help of the giant king, there will be almost no problem, but they are still not allowed to enter' Forest of Decline', even if you follow that ancient god." Klein briefly stated his opinion and guess, "Perhaps not only the parents of the giant king Almere are buried there, but other secrets as well."
"This may be very big." Audrey nodded seriously.
On her face wearing a silver-white mask, her green eyes turned slightly, revealing some curiosity.
"If this is the case, what would be a secret that cannot be known to wives, children, gods, or clansmen? It's interesting..." Leonard smiled and let his thoughts spread.
After discussing for a while, the three of them seized the time to pass through the "Desolate Tunnel" to the inside of the "Royal Court of Giants", trying to enter the palaces that were frozen with the light of dusk.
According to Klein's experience, this is actually the road to the edge of Groselle's dream.
This time, there is no need for him to falsely activate "Squirming Hunger" and use the power of "living corpse" to open the heavy door of the giant's guarded residence. "Justice" Audrey directly affects the dream, making the door over ten meters high as light as paper. The ground opened back on its own — Klein actually didn't wear the human leather glove because of the rejection of the "Undark Cross".
Outside the door is a gray world, and the front is no longer the "Royal Court of Giants", but a cliff.
After exchanging a little bit about the various situations that may be encountered when entering the collective subconscious ocean, and having a corresponding plan, Audrey made a ladder appear on the edge of the cliff.
The staircase twists and turns, penetrating deep into the deep, gray, silent spiritual world where the bottom cannot be seen.
The three of them stepped onto the stairs without any delay and went down step by step.
In this lonely and quiet environment that makes people want to go crazy, "Justice" Audrey will use "Comfort" several times every time she goes down a certain distance.
This is not only appeasing Klein, Leonard, and herself, but also appeasing the gray-white cliff—Grossel's subconscious, lest the other party become agitated and pollute the astral body or mental body of the three.
The palms of the countless rotten giants that Klein "encountered" last time did not appear again. Even the most unbearable feeling of loneliness, silence, endlessness, and no end in this spiritual world was due to the fact that it was a small team action. Being able to talk doesn't seem so scary.
"This is the spiritual world, the domain of consciousness. It's really different from others." Leonard the Star looked around, as if he wanted to use a few lines of poetry to express his touch, but he finally chose to give up.
In other places or other tasks, Klein might keep the poet classmate quiet, but here, he feels that it is good for the other party to say anything casually.
Audrey "Justice" also does not reject communication, and said very seriously:
"The feeling we get intuitively is the essence of this environment. The cliffs, cliffs, and gray world we see belong to a reflection of our subconscious here. If it is another race, it may not be like this..."
"...I find psychology quite interesting now." Leonard said with great interest after listening.
Klein glanced at him, and refrained from saying that with your personality and habits, you are really not suitable for the "spectator" approach.
During such exchanges, the three of them descended for an unknown amount of time, and finally stepped on the solid but vague gray ground.
Looking up from here, one can see swaying lights and shadows. They are dense and overlapping, forming an illusory sea.
Klein, Leonard, and Audrey were about to walk forward when suddenly a "water flow" rushed past, and a blurred light and shadow stood up from it.
It was a gray-blue giant with a height of six to seven meters, with dragon-scale leather wrapped around its chest and abdomen, and the exposed parts were covered with various patterns, symbols and signs that could not be described in words and exceeded the scope of normal senses.
His single vertical eye was bloodshot, exuding a violent aura undisguised, with an obvious tendency to destroy, and a bloody human leg was biting in his mouth.
This is a giant at the demigod level!
He is a phantom left in the collective subconscious sea, which may come from an actual encounter with the ancestors of humans or other races, or it may come from the experience of giants such as Grossel.
As soon as he appeared, that crazy emotion spread to Klein and the others, like a contagious plague.
This is the world where the spirit, consciousness, and soul are in direct contact!
