Chapter 11
"Ridiculous! This is ridiculous!"
At the same time, northeast of the main city.Made of black conglomerate rich in plains, in the deep side hall of the temple dedicated to the ancestor god of the giant wolf clan, Charlotten, a red-robed old man with gray hair and a face full of ravines, thin but vigorous The same gray beard at the corner of his mouth trembled and trembled because of the anger.
"It's about this time, Jiji is still talking nonsense!" A palm like a dead tree branch slapped on the stone table with green kudzu pear juice on the side.The heavy force made the two pottery cups filled with the fruit drink jump in the air, "Why don't you let us intervene? Do you want the Elders to just sit and wait until the Eye of Thales outside buries the Giant Wolf City?" Can't you just intervene?"
On a row of round stone pillars supporting the entire hall, the magic flame talisman torch burst out a spark at this moment.
In the center of the hall, there are dozens of stone chairs covered with animal skins in two rows on the left and right. Right now, they are sitting or standing, and they are almost fully occupied.But facing the roaring roar of the old man in red, there was a moment of silence and no one answered.
"Hey, I said Elder Qiao, if you have something to say, talk it out, talk it out..."
He took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The bald middle-aged man with a round face and a round belly and a round body everywhere, squinted at the red-robed old man beside him with eyes that were almost invisible.
After the fat man in black robe broke the silence, he continued to mutter: "Besides, the Ice and Snow Eye outside is not big, and it's too early to bury the entire Giant Wolf City..."
"Shut up, Roxar!" With a trembling beard and a pair of shining eyes, he glanced at Patok, the patriarch sitting on the first stone chair opposite, "Anyway, we must check it out carefully. , that young man of unknown origin, called--"
"Ling Xiao."
The fat man in black named Roxa, who was sipping green kudzu pear juice with a pottery cup in his hand, interjected again at this moment.
"Yes, that young man named Ling Xiao! He shouldn't have been allowed to live in Giant Wolf City in the first place after causing such a chaotic situation, and allowed him to act as he pleases. Gigi actually uttered such nonsense as the messenger of Thales!"
"Oh?" The tall young man clasped his hands, sitting firmly opposite Joe and Roxar, with gray hair combed neatly behind his head, and a pair of blue-gray eyes, suddenly interrupted: "Listen to Elder Joe and Elder Roxar According to the two, it seems that the Eye of Thales that appeared in Giant Wolf City this time has a lot to do with Ling Xiao?"
"This..." Staring at those wet, sticky and cold eyes that belonged to reptiles, the sweat that Roxar had just wiped off began to break out again.
"Humph!"
The red-robed old man who was sitting on the side raised his chin arrogantly, squinted his eyes, seemed to be full of disdain for this young man, and said in a strange voice: "Whether it matters or not, this is a giant wolf." Patriarch Laoxivia doesn't have to worry about the internal affairs of the clan."
"That's a pity."
Although she said this, there was no disappointment and pity on Sylvia's face.He cast his gaze not far away, the rows of black rock pillars bearing the weight of the entire meeting hall, more precisely, he stared at a certain shadow between the pillars, "As the patriarch of the Desolate Snake Clan , I really want to meet that miraculous Lord Messenger."
Folding his arms with his back against the stone pillar, the middle-aged grey-haired soldier Sadis frowned when he heard the words, and his well-defined but too thin and cold face twitched slightly, but finally disappeared silently in the jumping flames In the dim shadows that cannot be reflected.
"What kind of messenger is he, he is just a useless waste picked up by Basil's unknown son."
"Shut up, Ken!" The sturdy pottery cup in his hand shattered on the stone table with a bang, Patok, the patriarch of the giant wolf tribe, turned sideways and stared at the gloomy-eyed little boy standing behind him earlier in the morning. son.
The empty hall once again fell into an embarrassing silence, the sound of the green kudzu pear fruit drink leaking from the cracked pottery cup, the sound of the translucent juice ticking and flowing between the table and the rocky floor was clearly recognizable.
For a long time, when the invisible confrontation between father and son made Elder Loxar's fat body sweat profusely, almost fainting——
"Sorry, Father."
Taking a step back, he lowered his head obediently, but the veins in the fist behind his back were bulging and turned white.It was the sound of grinding the back molars with difficulty, but it made most of the giant wolf clan members present breathe a sigh of relief.If these secrets, which are not humane, are shaken out under the current situation where the three parties gather, it will be really...
"OK OK."
Clapping hands, next to the red-robed old man Joe and Roxar, one seat down, with brown hair coiled up high, wearing a dignified black long dress, the only one of the giant wolf clan who is nearly middle-aged but still gorgeous A female elder, Lin Lian, stood up and said loudly——
"Thales is here! Since the giant wolf tribe, the wild snake tribe, and the centaur tribe all intend to cooperate and form an alliance, let us quickly return to the topic and negotiate the most urgent personnel scheduling and allocation issues. After all, the ruins of the hill The Eye of Thales, which is about to be opened, will not wait until we have finished fighting endlessly before starting!"
"what? What?"
Originally sitting on the row of stone chairs on the left, Andrisim, the leader of the centaur territory between the leader of the wild snake clan Sylvia and the leader of the giant wolf clan Patok, was awakened by Lin Lian's high-pitched voice Dozed off, "The Eye of Thales is open? Hurry up, Eli, let's go!"
The lower half of his face was unshaven, and the tall man jumped up in a daze, then walked out.He wore a bright silver chain mail handcrafted by mountain dwarves, and two long swords around his waist that shone dazzlingly, clanging and rattling together.
The young boy named Ai Li, who was originally an attendant, was dragged to move together. His face was flushed, and he grabbed the red hair hanging down the waist of the tall and strong leader who was humiliated and thrown to the Giant Wolf City, and used brute force Drag back--
"Leader, the adults are still negotiating a solution, please sit down!"
"Hiss! Pain, pain, pain—!"
After being forced to sit back on the seat, Andrissim, who was rubbing his red hair on his head and opening his maroon eyes, had an innocent expression, "It hurts! Ellie. How many times have I said that, This is my hair, not the tail, even the tail can’t be pulled casually like this.”
Behind the Silvia patriarch on one side, the female guard with a black mask covering half of his face bent down and whispered a few words in his ear, the desolate snake clan patriarch who had cold eyes also turned his gaze towards the two of them. , with a hint of playfulness on his pale face.
"I'm sorry, chief."
Apologizing absent-mindedly, being looked at by the teasing eyes around him made him want to kick someone, half of his black hair was loose and half tied up around his neck, the little boy Avery lowered his head, as if he wanted to see through the ground, staring at his toes .
"Oh, it's okay." After hearing the boy's apology, he waved his hand generously. Andrisim, whose tall body was lazily spread out on the seat, finally said, "Anyway, when you are in the centaur state, you can talk about it." My tail, Ellie."
The sound of puffing, panting, and coughing came and went, filling the entire hall.
The boy named Ellie just lowered his head down, wishing that he could become invisible and disappear immediately.What a shame!
This joking nickname of "sleepy and naturally dull family" started by the leader of the centaur tribe, seems to be really inseparable.The young man who felt that his whole life was gloomy and unable to get up was so desperate that he wanted to scream to the sky a few times.
"Well."
After coughing heavily, she regained her expression. Elder Lin Lian, who was still standing upright, also glanced at Andrisim and young Avery with her beautiful brown eyes, "Thank you Thales, it seems that the leader of the centaur is now I am also very sober. Then let’s get back to the topic, since the three parties intend to participate together to hunt this Eye of Thales, which is located in the hill of relics and is conservatively estimated to be a medium-sized one—"
On the continent of Terra, the space rifts that appear from time to time, that is, the Eye of Thales, are not constant in size and scale.
And the actual opening time—that is, the time it takes to project images or creatures from another planet onto this land is also of varying lengths.
However, compared with the elusive and irregular place where the Eye of Thales appears, after thousands of years of exploration and summary, calculate the time it takes for the Eye of Thales to become unstable, gradually stabilize, and finally fully open Length, except for a very small number of mutated rifts, the residents of Terra can basically judge the approximate size of this spatial rift in advance.
The newly born Eye of Thales was just a disk-shaped structure that emitted spiral light and hung high in the air.At this time, it can only be called a 'harbinger' state, because under the range covered by the light, there will not be any spectacle life belonging to another world appearing.
There are also precedents for a very small part of them directly collapsing and disappearing in such an unstable state.
And most of them continue to grow, and gradually stabilize, and finally show the unique landforms and life signs of other planes, which can be called the "open" state.
Generally speaking, the shorter the time it takes to go through the above-mentioned process, the smaller the size of the crack; conversely, the longer it takes to open, the larger the size of the crack.
The most common ones are the small cracks all over the continent.Then there are medium, large, and even giant rifts.Even rarer than giant ones are hybrid mutated fissures. Apart from random locations, mutated fissures are special types that cannot even be predicted in terms of opening time and size.
By distinguishing the different colors of the rays of light from the rift, it is possible to roughly determine the type of Eye of Thales that will be opened.The earth, flames, water, wind, and cracks in plants and wood, brown, red, blue, white, and green, basically have their own exclusive colors.
And the eyes of ice and snow that appeared above the giant wolf city can already be classified as the category of water and wind mixed and mutated.In addition, the Millennium Thunder Array on the Thundering Ridge of the Highland of Pain, the Corroded Abyss of the Sage's Spire in the Rainforest, the Golden Holy Land on the Shining Hills and the Gate of the End on the Hero's Platform, and the Howling Lair are all things that are known to all Terra continent humans. A terrifying mutant fissure.
"Since the Eye of Thales this time appeared on the hill of relics at the junction of the three territories, here I suggest that everyone distribute the manpower equally."
"Lord Lin Lian."
The beautiful baritone sounded like vibrating strings, and Mira, another elder of the giant wolf tribe on Lin Lian's left, spoke for the first time since entering the meeting hall.He was in his prime, dressed in a black elder robe, his slightly curly brown hair was carefully combed and tied up, he didn't look like a person who had been in a high position for a long time, but he was full of the romantic and elegant temperament of a poet.
"Oh~ what's the matter, Mira-sama?" subconsciously softened her voice, stared at by those tender brown-black eyes, even the reserved and respectful elder Lin Lian couldn't help but feel a girlish feeling.
"It's nothing." She shook her head with a slight smile, and after a pause, Mira said again: "It's just that before we start discussing, shouldn't we wait for Master Jiji? After all——"
"What are you talking about, Mira!"
The elder Joe in red, who was worried that he couldn't find a chance to attack, immediately trembled again with his white beard.He is the head of the elders, and among all the elders, he is the most incompatible with the prophet Jiji.
"That stubborn guy didn't come by himself, so he just sent an attendant to fool us! Don't we have to ask him to come here now?"
Elder Joe, who found the muzzle of the gun, turned his thin body sideways even though he was two seats away, and complained dissatisfiedly to Mira.
Because a single sentence hurts the innocent, when Mira sighed helplessly, Lin Lian and Roxar helped to persuade them to make peace, the door of the meeting hall made of black flame iron clad with a thousand-year-old iron core wood was suddenly opened—— Topic The giant wolf clan prophet of the Chinese came here in such a hurry under the eyes of everyone with a snowstorm and cold air all over his body.
"Sardis is my guardian, entrusting each other with loyalty and life. He is not some kind of servant who is used to fool people casually!"
In the aisle between the two rows of seats on the left and right, I walked through without squinting. Even though the long hair was loose and the gray robe was shabby and shabby, the attractive aura exuded by the gorgeous face and tall figure made everyone feel uncomfortable. Be underestimated.
When approaching the great elder Joe, the corner of the right eye dotted with red tear moles was squinting at him. Gigi opened her mouth, which made people feel stunned. I can’t remember clearly and I made a mistake again.”
After finishing speaking, Elder Joe, who was so irritated that his beard was raised and wheezing, was left speechless. Amid Andrissim's yawning, Sylvia's deep eyes, and fat Roxar's constant wiping of sweat, He passed Joe's seat forward and sat down on the right side of the giant wolf patriarch Patock.
"Then, Lin Lian—" After making eye contact with the Prophet Jiji for a moment, Patok, the lord of the Giant Wolf City who had never made a formal statement, stood up and spoke loudly and steadily. The voice suppressed the faint tension and undercurrent in the air, and he nodded towards the elder Lin Lian who was not far away and said, "Let's get started!"
"……Yes."
Resting his forehead with one hand, Prophet Jiji seemed quite bored.Looking at this ongoing discussion, the three parties started lengthy negotiations for their own contributions and benefits.A smile appeared on his snow-white face at this moment, but his free thoughts had already flown to nowhere.
