Blood of Mercury

Chapter 59: touch dusk

Tick.

Tick.

Roland opened his eyes and found himself in a strange place.

It was a very huge room, the roof alone was tens of meters high, and it was definitely not for humans to live in.

Beneath him was a dark brown floor with intricate patterns engraved on it. The dome that was high like a church was scattered with colorful colored glass, which were randomly arranged in a messy manner, exuding a strange and wild beauty.

And there are seven or eight bookshelves randomly placed around him—yes, the bookshelves can only be described as "seats". Not a boxy shape, but a comically irregular tetrahedron like a poor pyramid. Countless books, large and small, hang on the shelves, in a perilous equilibrium at an odd angle.

Tick.

Tick.

Before he could understand the surrounding environment, Roland suddenly realized the sound that kept echoing in his ears in the extremely quiet environment.

He glanced blankly, and finally "suddenly" found a huge coffin-like clock in an unfamiliar house.

That's right, it appeared suddenly - the coffin-like clock runs from the ground to the roof, and even the top has been pushed up from the roof to the outside world. But when Roland looked up at the church-like dome before, he didn't notice anything like a column attached to the roof, and the roof with a wonderful curvature was also intact.

It is worth noting that the hands on the huge wall clock. The hands of the wall clock do have three, but they are generally three.

The three hands vibrated at the same frequency and at different paces, in a way of timekeeping that Roland had never seen before.

An inexplicable fear struck Roland's mind, and the flowing icy breath gently bit the back of his neck, making everything in front of him extremely clear, but it kept getting further away like drunkenness.

Instinct from the creature warned him not to look too much. Roland was as stiff as a stone statue and solidified in place. He didn't dare to look down at the floor that made up the weird and beautiful geometric patterns, but just stared at the wall clock.

When Roland was certain that he would never look at anything else, as if mocking his decision, a tangible warmth with a scent embraced him softly.

The warmth flowed up and down his body, sliding through his internal organs like a poisonous snake.

But at this time, Roland suddenly discovered that the shape that the tangible aroma flowed out did not seem to be his own body--or rather, it was not the shape of a person.

——What am I now?

An almost irrepressible curiosity embraced Roland's heart. The poisonous snake in his internal organs spit out curious venom, and a malicious book jumped down from the strangely shaped bookshelf for no reason.

Randomly, that book triggered a chain reaction. The absence of one book led to the fall of other books, and eventually, the entire room of books fell, dribbling like milk on the ground.

Roland clearly felt the touch of the book on the ground flowing past his body, and hated his superior spatial imagination ability to roughly outline the shape of his legs.

——That is definitely not a form that humans can have.

Roland was surrounded by more toxic curiosity, and he almost couldn't help but look down at himself at the moment. Fortunately, he held back at the last minute.

But that didn't kill his curiosity. His eyes were itching violently because of this, and he couldn't help scratching it with his hands, and accidentally gouged out his eyeballs.

Afterwards, he saw several poisonous snakes emerge from his hollow eye sockets, wrapping around Roland's hands, blurring like phantoms.

——Wait, how did I see these poisonous snakes?

After Roland realized the problem, the poisonous snakes wrapped around his arms suddenly burned violently, turning into a fiery poisonous fire, and the scented warmth around him also burned in anger, causing Roland to feel pain. scream.

The scream was shrill and echoing, and even the sound of memory couldn't do it. Not to mention human beings, it is impossible for any creature to have such a terrible voice.

The scream of "Roland" echoed in the huge room, merged with the ticking sound that suddenly increased hundreds of times, and turned into a flowing silver flame, burning the surrounding books to the ground, and the whole room was destroyed by it. And broken.

Before Roland woke up completely, he vaguely saw an eye outside the room.

Those eyes that move are...

The violent dizziness blinded Roland.

When he woke up again, Roland suddenly found himself on top of the canopy of the Tree of Suffering, and a lot of white vines scattered weakly around Roland.

The pure white mistletoe on the whole body of the Suffering Tree did not change, but the golden oak tree seemed to be scorched and its skin was black. Pieces of snake scales gradually appeared on his cheeks.

A large number of system prompts appeared in front of Roland's eyes like a swipe:

【You got some information about the Dusk Seed】

【You got some information about Higgs with a snake in his eyes】

[You fall asleep under the gaze of Higgs, who has a snake in his eyes, the check of will... the check is successful; the repeated check of the will... the check is successful; the repeated check of the will... the check is successful; the repeated check of the will... the check fails]

[You got the attention of the divine Higgs from the way of ashes]

【You got the inspiration of the supernatural ability dream】

[You got the characteristic Dusk Contact (personal characteristic)]

"...Twilight believers?"

Roland hurriedly jumped from its canopy, his eyes full of fear.

Roland should have guessed from the time when only "Homage to the Father of Gaia" can trigger the dialogue of the Tree of Suffering - where is this sentence used to trigger the dialogue, it is clearly used for the Tree of Suffering to call Higgs !

If you don't say this sentence, then the Tree of Suffering is just teaching Roland's skills as a Druid; or even if Roland said this sentence before leaving, Roland had already left the resonance of the Tree of Suffering. Scope.

But Roland said hello to Father Gaia in front of the Tree of Suffering, and it was obvious that he was taken by the Tree of Suffering as a believer at dusk, and he was pulled into his dream together!

You must know that Higgs with a snake in his eyes is the father of Gaia and the only **** that Druids believe in!

For professions like Druid or Priest, reaching 18 points in perception is a watershed. Once it reaches eighteen o'clock, it means that you can establish a stable spiritual connection with the gods, and move your soul essence closer to a greater existence every moment.

It’s okay for professions other than Druids to know about this matter, but ten years before the collapse of the White Tower, all Druids with a perception of more than 18 points should have received the last words from the father of Gaia with his last reason. right.

After that, the more rational Druids followed the will of the father of Gaia, cut off the spiritual connection between themselves and the father of Gaia in grief, and became unbelievable Druids. But the fanatics of the father of Gaia all rejected the last request of the father of Gaia, and resolutely maintained a spiritual connection with the father of Gaia until the last moment of the fall of the father of Gaia.

In other words, all Druids who advanced to the Golden Rank before the collapse of the White Tower are likely to be Twilight believers.

The Tree of Passion had briefly become the guardian of Caral, and Roland subconsciously excluded it for this reason. But now I look back and think about it, why did Master Changmian let the dead crow spread the plague? Isn't it just to remove the ingrained influence of the gods and twilight on the whole world?

At the beginning of creation, it was a plague against divine beings and dusk species. Because of the exaggerated transformation of the woman Farina, almost everyone forgot who this plague was aimed at~www.NovelMTL.com~ In other words, suffering The tree did not die of illness because the bloodstain syndrome was too strong at all, but because of its status as a twilight believer, it weakened and died within a few days!

Roland immediately realized the importance of the dream, and after thinking for a moment, the broken words came out of his mouth: "...flowing books, pyramid-like bookshelves, a clock as long as three hands, a church-like top, a huge room... …”

As long as people wake up, the impression of dreams will fade at a very fast speed. If you want to write down your dream, you must quickly write down the keywords of the entire dream in a notebook when you just wake up and still have some impressions. In this way, some fragments can still be recalled under the association.

Roland didn't have a notebook at hand, but with his superior memory, he had no problem remembering a few words he said.

After standing there for a while, and describing the dream in broken words, the impression of the dream completely faded in Roland's memory. All he could recall was that he had a terrible dream.

With some trepidation, Roland glanced at the Tree of Suffering, which seemed to be scorched by the flames.

As for checking your task list, let's wait until you get to a safe place.

——Once the Tree of Suffering recovers from the damage of the broken dream, the self who is still within the resonance range will surely die.

Roland understood this as if in a mirror.
