Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

"So, how many years have you been in Spark City?"

"Almost two hundred years? Spark City continued its technology, but its history was erased, especially after the 'heart' problem." Kah replied with a smile.

The crow on Esther's shoulder followed up and said, "Just when you last appeared in the 'Land Abandoned by God'."

Two hundred and seven years ago, it happened to be the beginning of Russell Gustav's "second life". Esther did remember this:

When the source castle was interfered with for the second time and the spirit body was released, Zoya's consciousness as the main body also tried to leave the source castle and enter the real world with "Huang Tao". However, a "thief" stole Zoya's orientation point to the real world through the anchor left in the God's Abandoned Land. In the end, an unlucky clone carried this fate, trapping Zoya in the God's Abandoned Land. land.

Zoya found Amon, and after another fruitless communication with him, she decisively returned her consciousness to the spiritual world.

Thinking of this memory, Esther couldn't help but sigh. She looked at the bottomless chasm below. The darkness came out from the ground and did not give the explorers any visible path, so Esther and Kach were just walking down there. Heavy, tiny pieces of light floated around the two of them, leaving behind a soft halo.

It's just that this falling process seems to have no end.

In such a depressing environment, Esther always wanted to say something: "Are you confident about Spark City? There is still a long distance from there to Silver City. I thought you would choose to follow them and continue to monitor them. Category."

Kah chuckled softly, and she patted Esther on the back without any malice: "Don't you understand yet? I don't care - if it weren't for the mission, I would have left that small castle long ago! I also have to thank you for freeing me from that boring task."

"You're welcome," Esther muttered.

The crow squatting on her shoulder actually had a small thought to add fuel to the fire: "If it weren't for the changes caused by you wanting to escape from the spiritual world, Spark City would not be in a dilemma."

"You still want me to reflect? Who used 'Dream City' to interfere with my plan before!" When Esther said this, she couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger.

After a burst of hoarse laughter, Crow continued: "Then I would like to kindly remind you that similar problems have appeared in the surviving cities, but some have been solved and some have been delayed."

“They still believe in Dazhbog, you——”

Crow interrupted Esther coldly: "I have no obligation to help them. I don't care and I don't need to."

Esther was stunned for a moment, bit her lip and did not continue.

The death of Dariborg, the establishment of the Rose of Redemption, and the betrayal of the Wind Angel, Cherubim and Pure White Angel also allowed Amon to further confirm the badness of human nature, especially the negative things. As Amon said, even if what he wants to do in the God-Forsaken Land has nothing to do with the ordinary residents, it cannot change the "fact" of Dazhbog's fall.

Amon's willingness to help those residents and block the pollution from the other side of the gray mist made her owe a favor - even if he didn't do this, the land abandoned by the gods would not only become more chaotic, but also more chaotic. The city-state is submerged in the dark history and will not change much. It cannot directly form a stable channel. In addition, the continent still cannot get rid of the seal.

If it weren't for Dazhbog's instructions, Amon wouldn't have acted like this... Then has he ever seen such progress?

Esther doubtfully recalled the part of the memory belonging to "Zoya", but her understanding of the ability of "omniscience" was too little. She wasn't going to ask the crow, that would be humiliating herself, and she wouldn't get any response other than laughing at Esther.

"I have never asked you, since you are so 'noble', why are you so tolerant to that lunatic?" When saying the emphasized word "noble", the crow's voice was distorted by laughter.

Esther immediately understood who the "madman" was referring to: "Because He really needs me, if I can help Him -"

"No, you are not allowed to help that madman, he is the same as them." The crow's voice was very flat, with almost no tone, "If you have been deceived before, you know it now."

"Isn't that what you would say, a god of 'deception', telling others not to be deceived?"

"That's what Adam said."

Well, this does explain the crow's strong resistance, just as Esther thought before.

Then she felt something and turned her head slightly, but no matter where her eyes fell, all she saw was darkness. Just an inexplicable intuition made Esther feel that the surroundings were getting colder, and she carefully discerned possible abnormalities nearby. Soon, Esther frowned: "Is there... the sound of water?"

"No." Kah looked at Esther curiously, "And I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with my hearing."

Esther clicked on the light group surrounding her, causing it to disperse into more tiny dots and float nearby, quickly dispersing the dense shadow nearby: "My question?"

"Your problem." When Crow answered, Esther would always have an inexplicable impulse to attack. "In other words, it's your specialness."

Kah put his backhand on Esther's shoulder: "Then, it's time for you to make a decision - where should we go? Close to the sound of water?"

Esther's brows were still frowning tightly, and the scattered light spots reunited, hovering around her and Kah. She quickly made a decision and pointed to the corner below: "No, let's go away from the sound of the water." direction."

Even in the dark, this orientation confused Esther, but her intuition gave such a reminder.

"Or we can stop here." Crow tilted his head. This time, it wasn't just Esther who noticed movement in the darkness.

Marks appeared in Esther's eyes, the darkness began to fade, and the faint sound of water was far away from her perception. But when she looked down, what she saw was not the familiar silver river, but a quiet and gentle river. creek.

Esther closed her eyes instantly, and only looked into the darkness again until the faint light dissipated from her eyes.

Kahe shook her shoulders: "How is it? What did you see?"

"It should be...death."

Esther's eyes were still aching, but she was not further injured, indicating that the impact of the tributary was not serious.

She touched her throat guiltily, remembering the threat of her body being invaded in Spark City before. For Esther now, "death" is actually easier to deal with than "life".

"Then we should welcome 'death' now?" Kah asked with a smile.

Esther knew that Kach would not be worried about the current situation, so she smiled particularly relaxedly at this time. Because no matter what happens, Esther has to bear higher risks, and Kah is just a clone, and the crow...

"What's wrong?" The crow on Esther's shoulder turned its head and asked.

Under the light of the ball of light, the black eyes were closer to inorganic gemstones than usual, cold, distant, and limited to looking at the guest seats.

"It's nothing," Esther quickly looked away, "There is really something approaching, should we-"

A ball of blazing white light lit up from the darkness. It was so sudden that it was like a searchlight placed on the front of a steam train. It was enough to make anyone who faced the light head-on lose their visual reaction for a short time in the vast whiteness.

However, it did not belong to anything. It was a sphere containing excessive brightness, without a trace of color, and suddenly fell into Esther's field of vision from the darkness.

Before Esther spoke, Kach had already taken action. He hugged Esther's shoulder with his left hand and grasped it casually with his right hand.

In an instant, the white light directly submerged the two people's figures. When it slowly dissipated, all that was left around them was a wasteland-like black land. Above was the silent darkness, but light shone from beneath the cracks in the ground, illuminating the pale grass stalks that dotted the place.

"It's time to move to a safer location..."

Esther reluctantly said the previous sentence.

Regardless, the "city" did approach them faster.
