Cyclops Valley.
The one-eyed giant who brought Link back didn't know what happened. When he saw the one-eyed king shouting and kneeling in front of him, he immediately waved his hands and shouted: "My lord, my lord, I'm not an envoy of God. I'm Oka, don't you recognize me?"
The one-eyed king immediately became furious, picked up a stone with a diameter of more than one meter, threw it at the giant who called himself Oka, and cursed: "You idiot, the angel is on top of you!"
Oka's head was bleeding from the stone, and he ran away with his head in his arms.
Link also flew down from his head, hovered 30 meters in front of the one-eyed king, and asked strangely, "Why do you call me an envoy?"
When the One-Eyed King saw that Link could fly and had no wings, he immediately became more awed. He lay on the ground, raised his head, and said respectfully: "God once issued an oracle, and he said that once a day, there will be a long Someone like him must appear, this is the messenger he sent to save us sinners."
"God? Oracle?" Link was even more puzzled. Could it be that this is the backbone of the brilliance? This is not like, if it is the Lord of Radiance, then there must be information displayed in the game system, and it will definitely not be as silent as it is now.
Of course, it's also possible that the game system doesn't feel the need to remind him, but is it necessary to play with mystery in this kind of thing
The one-eyed king nodded again and again: "Yes, the oracle, we have passed it down from generation to generation, and there will be no mistakes. Not only do you look exactly the same as the oracle, but the time of appearance is also consistent with the oracle."
This explanation made Link slightly startled, and there was one detail that made him vigilant, and that was the time when the envoy appeared.
Since the oracle said that the envoy would appear during this period of time, and he was sure that he was unlikely to be an envoy, then there was a possibility that a real envoy would appear on this huge island in the near future.
It is impossible for a god to descend to the mortal world out of thin air, but if the envoy wants to convince these mortals, he should have legendary power. If this guy is an enemy, then there will be a big problem.
Thinking of this, Link said: "Since it is a god, there must be a statue of a god, take me to see it."
"I obey, my lord envoy." The one-eyed king stood up, turned and walked deep into the valley, while Link followed him more than 30 meters away.
Along the way, the Cyclops in the valley looked at him curiously, but perhaps because they were afraid of the majesty of the lord, they all stood far away and did not dare to approach him.
The valley is very huge, at least 10 kilometers long and 500 to 600 meters wide. Walking along the way, Link found that there are quite a lot of giants in the valley. There are all men, women, and children, and they are all naked. The number is at least 600 or more. There are more than 200 giants in their prime.
Seeing Link sizing up his subjects, the One-Eyed King said disdainfully, "Mystery, those guys are all brainless idiots, they are not worth mentioning at all."
Link didn't see it that way. In his eyes, these giants were all very powerful fighters, with strength above level 8, and this one-eyed king was at the peak of level 9.
Except for the One-Eyed King, who has a good brain and is not easy to deceive, the other giants seem to be very easy to satisfy. It is estimated that as long as they are given good food and drink, and a piece of clothing that the leader only has, these guys should be able to be used by him. .
With such a powerful force and a huge body, once it appeared on the battlefield, it would be a terrifying war machine.
Of course, I haven't figured out the specific situation of this island yet, and Link doesn't know if this can be done.
About ten minutes later, Link followed the Cyclops to the end of the valley. The place was empty, with no Cyclops around. The ground was very flat. In the middle of the valley stood a white stone sculpture more than 80 meters high.
The appearance of this stone sculpture is exactly the same as that of the human race. If you look closely, it is really similar to the outline of Link's face, of course, only a little bit.
In fact, with Bailink's popular face, he looks a bit similar to every human race, hehe.
However, in the eyes of humans, the faces of the two sides are very different, but in the eyes of foreigners, there is no difference between the two (there is natural face blindness for foreigners, for example, it is difficult for you to distinguish the appearance of two dogs), and it is very difficult to admit mistakes. normal.
'Putong~' The one-eyed king had knelt down on the ground, and he said to Link: "This is the great Thoreau. He has always protected our island from evil, but the evil has never left. He is just outside the island. Wandering around, looking for opportunities, always trying to devour our souls. So the great Thoreau left an oracle, saying that after a thousand years, his messenger will return to the mortal world and lead us to completely defeat the evil outside the island."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Link, with a frenzied expression in his yellow eyes: "Now, you have really come, and finally we don't need to be threatened by evil anymore."
Link was confused, the great Thoreau, he has no impression of this name, he has never seen it in books in this life, and he has never seen it in games in his previous life... Wait, Link suddenly felt a flash of light in his mind. Flashing past, it's about the memory of the game.
This memory is very vague. Link guessed that he should have glimpsed similar information in his previous life, but he didn't read it carefully.
He fell silent for a moment, trying to get rid of distracting thoughts, trying to recall this memory like light smoke, but it was useless, he just had a vague impression, this memory was kept in an unknown corner in the deepest part of his memory, at this time he I tried to think about it, but I couldn't find it.
I can't think of it for the time being, Link can only give up first, he asked: "You just said evil, what evil?"
"The evil outside the island, they are in the sea, they are everywhere, they overturn all the ships going out to sea, they cover the sky, they block all the roads connecting us with the Glorious Continent, but it doesn't matter. You are here, you Look, the sky is getting brighter!"
Link was startled, he noticed a detail: "You just said, cover the sky?"
Link has personally verified this point. When he and Grissaer entered the Ferroman plane, they were at an altitude of 10,000 meters. He was sure that there was no shelter in the sky.
However, Link immediately recalled that Grace Sarah had told him that more than 400 years ago, she and her mother had traveled around the plane, and they had never seen such a huge island. In their eyes, Dawn Island was the largest island in the sea. island.
That is to say, the sky here was once covered, but now this covering has disappeared, and the time of disappearing is just in the period from 400 years to the present.
But why did it disappear
Link thought quickly, and quickly thought of two possibilities. First, the envoy had already appeared, but the one-eyed king hadn't heard about him yet. Second, there is something wrong with the evil in the sea that the one-eyed king said.
The former is much more likely to occur than the latter.
'So, is this envoy an enemy or a friend? '
Link doesn't know, the only thing he knows is that this island is not as safe as he imagined, whether it is the evil in the sea or the envoy of the great Thoreau, they all have the power to threaten them.
Thinking of this, Link no longer paid attention to the one-eyed king, and the space around his body was slightly blurred. This is a vision that only occurs when the void walk reaches its limit.
The next moment, there was a bang around Link's body, and the air wave spread in all directions, and the one-eyed king who hit him stepped back, and at the same time, Link's body disappeared in place.
Link hurried back to the castle, and when he flew into the air, his mind suddenly lit up, remembering the origin of the familiarity of the word Thoreau.
It was on the world channel of a game, a player swiped a treasure hunting message, but the news on the world channel was posted very quickly, and treasure hunting news abounded, Link just glanced at it casually.
With this clue, Link continued to think back, and more and more news suddenly came to his mind.
"The evil god Thoreau, the eternal cage, the perfect deception, doing dark and terrifying things in the name of righteousness and greatness..." There is not much news, but these words keep popping up one after another, and none of them are good words, but this is exactly what it is content contained in the message.
However, that was all Link knew, and he knew nothing about the specific details.
But this is enough to make him vigilant. He is only a hundred kilometers away from the castle, and at his current speed, it will only take five minutes to return to the castle.
Four minutes later, the castle appeared in Link's eyes, and the castle looked the same. From a distance, Link saw Grace Sarah was cleaning the herbs she picked by the creek near the castle. Five half-blood demon children Also helping out, everything seems to be ok.
This made Link feel a little relieved, he slowed down, adjusted his direction slightly and flew towards Gracie Saer.
When he got close, Link slowly landed, and the children immediately stood up and said, "Housekeeper."
Link nodded, and then said to Grace Sha'er in the lingua franca of the mainland, "Sha'er, I probably know the reason why we were mistaken for angels."
"Oh?" Grisa raised her eyebrows and said, "I'll listen to you."
Link explained everything he had inquired along the way, including details such as evil gods and scams. After he finished speaking, Grace Saer frowned and said, "I also heard some legends from these little guys. Among them is the Great One, but in legend, he is a savior."
Just in case, Grace Sarah deliberately didn't say Thoreau's name. She knew that if the other party was really a god, saying his name at this time would attract his attention.
Link thought for a while and said, "These legends are not contradictory to what I've heard, they're just a superficial and a deep layer. As far as I know, gods are existences with elusive intentions. If this great man is really a god , no one knows what he wants to do... I think we should take precautions early, maybe we should leave this island as soon as possible."
"You're right. Have the herbs been picked?"
"Of course. I picked a lot." Link took out all the herbs he picked along the way, and there were all kinds of them, weighing hundreds of catties.
Grissaer checked them one by one, and then laughed: "These are enough, I don't have enough strength now, so you can only help me refine the potion, I said, you do it."
"clear."
