Soul of Burning Steel

Vol 7 Chapter 26: Wrong time

"According to current methods, it is absolutely impossible for chaos to be used by humans."

Boom, boom, boom, boom-the sound of the earth's crust being torn apart by brute force sounded in the almost liquid air, and within a few minutes, it spread to most of the world.

This is a completely dark world.

Without stars, without the sun, the frozen earth's surface is harder than diamonds at the absolute low temperature of minus Baidu. The violent cold wind formed by the large 6 fragments stirs the waves in the atmosphere that is about to condense into blocks.

Above the glacier, Priest endured extreme fear and trembling, standing on the only piece of ground intact. Warriors who have reached the golden realm can already survive this extreme cold, and can also survive in absolute darkness. Seeing things-so he stared, staring at the glacier in front of him.

The vast glacier that covers the entire world and stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles is now shattered under someone’s brute force. Priest watched as the glacier and the crust were torn apart by a huge steel figure, forming a wide and deep valley. This deep valley cannot see its end, nor know how deep it is. Its edge disappears beyond the horizon, as if torn the entire world.

Perhaps the world has really been torn apart.

"Priest, don't take a chance, you have to remember everything I say."

A loud, deep, god-like voice came, and Priest lowered his head quickly to show that he was listening. At the same time, from the corner of his eye, he saw that a crust stronger than steel was like paper in front of the giant god. The pieces are generally torn into rock crusts one by one, and then shattered into countless dense dust, which merges into that majestic body.

"According to all the methods and technologies we currently have, it is absolutely impossible for us to use chaos."

The giant is eating-he is devouring the world, crushing a huge rock formation comparable to a mountain, and integrating it into himself. While talking, the giant is tearing apart a piece of tens of thousands of meters long like a piece of meat. Huge rock crust.

Priest felt the incomparable gravitational disturbance, his throat squirmed, and he swallowed, because he saw that the giant rock crust that surpassed Mycroft's highest mountain in the world turned into a cloud of silver smoke in an instant. , And then disappeared into the deep and dark mouth of the giant god.

Soon, the rift valley turned into a deep valley, and the deep valley turned into an abyss. The vast land that was large enough for tens of millions of people to live was like a cake, swallowed up by the giant one bite, and in the process, his calm voice was in the atmosphere. Reverberating.

"I only say this to you, Priest, you are different from everyone else, and you are different from my other students, so I must remind you that you must be alert to everything related to chaos."

"Exactly... where is it different, teacher?"

Even though it was because of fear and shock, there was an uncontrollable shudder from all over the body, but Priest was able to calm down-he took a deep breath and forced the air of Baidu below zero into the lung cavity. The extreme cold made this person. The young soldier calmed down, and then asked loudly, "Why do you say this to me?"

Always keep calm and muster courage. This is the advantage of Priest and the reason why he can become a student of Titan.

"Because of choice. Priest, you are different from your brothers and sisters. Because they choose to stay in the Mycroft world, they will stay inside the empire and become a strong man on the side, maintaining order and peace. ."

The giant did not stop eating. He came to this extremely cold and frozen planet to "eat" most of the surface of the rock, taking out the metal core of this planet and using it as a cake to supplement the nutrients of the world in the body. The giant was slow and timid. Calmly said: "And you are different."

"You have chosen to be an adventurer who explores the distance, and you have chosen this path, so you are more likely than them to encounter the chaos hidden in the multiverse, and more likely to touch the other side of the world."

It is also more likely to keep up with me.

Priest saw that in the dark world, an extremely turbulent storm was suddenly set off, as if some huge existence was stirring the atmosphere. With force, his legs smashed the ice and crushed himself firmly like a wedge. Fix it in place.

In the next moment, Priest saw that the giant turned around and looked down at him.

What kind of eyes are that?

Priest is indescribable, indescribable, it is like two tiny suns, eyes emitting infinite light and heat... But the brilliance of the sun is distorted by the invisible gravity and shaped into a hazy mass. The blazing light stream flows gently along the corner of the giant god's eyes, forming regular and mysterious lines on his cheeks.

"Don't use chaos, don't approach chaos, don't try to control it, and don't try to change it. If you can't destroy it, then seal it as soon as possible, or leave. Chaos and us are such a relationship, mutual mortal enemy. "

Looking at the giant god, Priest was speechless for a long time, seeming to be immersed in the shock of the other's infinite power, but when the giant turned his head and planned to end his suggestions for his students and continue his lunch, Priest The ghost spoke like a god.

"Even if it's... teacher, your power won't work?"

The long silence appeared in the frozen world.

Although there was a faint laugh after that, with a little admiration.

"Even if I emphasize this, you still have hope, I like you... As for me."

The titan whispered intriguingly: "At least I can say that I am still working hard, not giving up."

...

Priest woke up suddenly from his dream.

"Damn... have you had a nightmare..."

He groaned in a low voice, and then stood up from the primitive vine hammock-his head hurts and it is difficult to think smoothly. Priest murmured, "No, it's not a nightmare... it's the teacher's teaching."

But he couldn't remember the specific teaching.

"Forget it, just a dream."

After a while, Priest, who had arranged his thoughts, raised his head and looked at the caster of the night watch across the campfire. The two nodded tacitly, without saying anything extra.

This is the third day that the Elite Exploration Team has arrived in an unknown alien world, and it is also the second day that the Elite Exploration Team has temporarily settled with the group of elves who call themselves the "Tribe of Overlookers".

The hills and hills of the Eastern Mountain Range are undulating and rolling. Between the leaves and branches of the endless forests, there are numerous underground caves. Except for a small number of high-rise buildings, most of the elves live in the caves closest to the mother tree of life. And Priest and others now live in a cleaned, ventilated cave.

"I don't know when the group of elves will be able to negotiate and decide not to cooperate with us."

On the other side of the bonfire, the mage on the early morning and night shift closed the magic book in his hand. He sighed and said helplessly: "These longevity species are indeed close relatives to the tortoise, slow and slow-paced."

"They will agree."

In response, Priest shook his head and said softly: "If you hesitate from the beginning, why should they place our five gold ranks next to their tribe? In this case, even if they strangle us with the strength of the clan , And they will inevitably suffer losses that they cannot bear-the fertility of elves is very difficult."

"Right."

The mage did not refute, nor did he earnestly agree. He just replied casually, then turned his head and looked at the light that appeared at the entrance of the cave-outside the cave, the dawn has arrived. This is the first time they came to this other world. Three days.

At the same time, Priest sighed and recalled the scene late at night two days ago.

In the dense forest, nearly a thousand elite elf hunters and marksmen surrounded the elite team of five people. In such a battle, even a group of gold-class beasts might be hated on the spot, but Priest and others There are five gold-level human professionals who have mastered various combat skills and magic. Even if they have not fully mastered their power of glory, it is not that these elves can win without injury.

When the crowd confronted nearly a thousand elf hunters, the leader of this group of elf, an elf druid wearing a big crown with antlers appeared in the center of the crowd, and his appearance broke the silent silence between the two sides.

"You... are humans?"

He asked in surprise: "It's not a chaos monster?"

With this kind of opening remarks as the beginning of the exchange, the follow-up conversation will naturally not be a straightforward conversation.

After a period of tedious and repeated inquiries and inquiries, the two sides at a furious end reluctantly ended the confrontation, and both knew roughly what was going on.

For Priest and his party, they knew that the elves in front of them came from a tribe of elves that called themselves the "Overlookers". This was a tribe of elves, including collars, and all members were under three hundred years old. , An unusually young elven tribe. They live around a huge tree of life. They use caves created by the rhizomes of the giant trees as their houses. They live by picking fruits, hunting beasts, and fishing in the sea.

Generally speaking, it is a very primitive but very united elf tribe.

And the reason why they ambush Priest and others at first was because they regarded everyone in the squad wearing magic armor as alien monsters lurking around their territory.

Just as the octopod fungus family didn’t see until the end that Priest and his party were wearing armor instead of being wrapped in a layer of exoskeleton, they had never seen armor or even seen so many metal creations. The elves, of course, can’t understand what the "full-covered enclosed magic armor" is, and the behavior of Priest and his team, in order to clear the way in the forest, does not hesitate to destroy the trees, which makes the elves believe , This is a group of terrifying alien monsters.

The differences between civilization, race and technology are so great that such near-impossible misunderstandings will appear.

On the other hand, the elves also knew that the five members of the exploration team were the victims who entered the forest by accident, and the mountain's abnormal changes had nothing to do with them. At least after everyone took the oath, the elves said I can’t deny it, I don’t seem to know whether I believe the lie or it doesn’t matter.

"The sacrifice to the holy mountain was originally made of silver iron, and the teachings left by the ancestors did say so, but time passed, the silver iron rusted, the wind and sand blowed, buried it, and finally turned into a solid rock."

This is what Priest and the others heard. That's how the antler elf said to them, and it seemed that he was not surprised at the restart of the time-space hub.

To be honest, this made the elite team who was facing the enemy extremely puzzled-they also understood that the mountain range where they and others were just now, that is, the location of the Accrafa hub, is the group in front of them. The mountain of sacrifice in the spirits' mouth, but now that the mountain of sacrifice has collapsed, they are not at all surprised, not even a little surprised or panicked.

Did they consider that mountain a sacred mountain? !

What is even more strange is the contradiction in the level of civilization of this group of elves.

According to Priest’s speculation, the elves in this strange world should be the same as them. More than 1,300 years ago, during the final war of the Glory Era, they accidentally landed here because of an error in time and space transmission. In other words, They should be the descendants of the elven colonists at the beginning-but if they were really elven colonists, they would never have become the original appearance of living in the crypt!

Elves are long-lived species, and the life span of a generation may be longer than that of most human kingdoms. Their knowledge inheritance is far more stable than that of short-lived humans. How can a group of elves become what it is today? What do primitive people look like?

Priest has even seen the elves here still use bone arrows, they have lost even the iron skills!

But for this strange contradiction, these elves themselves answered part of the doubts for everyone.

"Are you curious about the scar on my hand?"

For the deer crested elves, after the exchange was over, when the two sides were not in confrontation for the time being, he stretched out his arms. He had already noticed that Priest and others often looked directly at the scar on his right hand, and were open-minded He smiled and said: "This is alien disease--the dead gods in the sky often fall part of their flesh and blood, eroding the beasts or elves in the forest. As long as they have been scratched by flesh and blood or infected monsters, basically no one can escape... …I’m pretty light, and it will probably take decades to kill me."

"It's useless to cut it off, this thing will be transferred to other parts of the body, countless ancestors have confirmed this with their lives."

The deer-crowned elf called the nine behemoths in the sky a "dead god". When he said this, he was very open-minded and didn't seem to care about his lifespan at all. He even joked with his companions: "I am almost the same. Is it about breaking the record for the longest life collar?" "No."

Based on this information, the exploratory team can barely understand why these elves lost their inheritance so quickly that they fell to such a primitive level-if it is said that most of the first generation of elven colonists died under the erosion of chaos, The remaining elves often die due to chaotic erosion, so even the longevity species cannot maintain the survival of civilization.

It is for this reason ~www.novelmtl.com~ that these elves recognize them as infected alien monsters after noticing the elite squad falling from the sky. The black mana armor does not seem to be decent. The equipment, at first glance, has a gloomy and depressing temperament.

As for the reason why the elves can recognize humans, the reason is also very simple, because according to them, hundreds of years ago, humans existed around the mountains in this world, but they were completely invisible during the recent period, and they should have gradually become extinct. .

"To be honest, the situation here is as weird as we imagined."

Priest stopped recalling for a while, shaking his head, he didn't know if he said to the mage opposite the bonfire, or he said to himself: "The recorded history of the Starfall Era is 839 years, so I don't know much. For a long time, about eighty to one hundred and thirty years, the original chaotic period of fighting against the black forest beasts after the sanctuary was opened, and the loss of 300 years before the sanctuary opened-this adds up to a total of 1,200 For many years, even if other possible surplus time is included, it is at most 1,300 years."

"Even if this group of elves are not long-lived because of the'otherworldly disease', which is a mild chaotic infection, they have a life span of about two hundred years. To them, one thousand three hundred years is a matter of six or seven generations. , It is impossible to forget so thoroughly!"

With Priest’s voice, the others woke up one by one, and the mage, who had been watching the entrance of the cave, lowered his voice and whispered to himself: "Maybe, more than 1,300 years. ?"

"What do you mean?"

Priest heard the mage of the mage keenly, and he asked inexplicably: "Do you mean that this group of elves already lived in this world before the final battle?"
