"I got three golds out of ten consecutive draws..."
Unlike what Bai Luo imagined, these people didn't look like they were having a nightmare, but rather a sweet dream.
They curled up their bodies, just like taking a nap under a big tree in the afternoon, without any pain or worries.
I tried shaking one of the knights, and he responded slightly, like his eyelids trembled and seemed to show signs of opening.
But this sign did not last long, and soon he changed to another more comfortable position and fell asleep again.
"What do you think... maybe it's not that they can't wake up, but that they don't want to wake up?"
After scanning each person and thinking for a moment, Bai Luo gave this answer.
"Don't want to wake up?"
His words stunned Kaia, who was talking to Edna.
Because he remembered the time when he was almost bewitched by that thing.
If they have the same feelings as me, it is possible that this is the case.
Chapter 733 Morning Star
"The nails must be driven deep enough! The ropes must also be pulled tight!"
"Do you have any water? Do you need me to fetch some?"
"The bard in front, please make way! If you are a volunteer here to help, please go get some water with the knight over there! Or help set up the tent!"
The camp was built faster than Bai Luo had imagined. After about half an hour, thanks to the efforts of the Knights, a shelter to accommodate the victims was successfully built.
When Qin made her way through the noisy crowd to reach Kaeya and the others, Kaeya and Bai Luo had already tried various methods to wake up the victims.
But except for one person who showed signs of waking up, the others seemed not to have heard their voices and continued to sleep.
"So, did you find anything?"
While the other knights helped to move the victims, Jean looked at the two and asked aloud.
But she was more asking Bai Luo.
"We can't jump to conclusions yet. Can you let me see the meteorite?"
In fact, he had his own purpose in raising the question of whether these people were unwilling to wake up.
He just wanted to find a legitimate reason to try to wake up these victims, see how they would react, and listen to what they were talking in their sleep.
And based on these people's dreams, he can also judge some things.
"Of course, but please be careful."
Unless the requests are particularly excessive, Qin basically agrees to any request regarding meteorites.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Although he said he knew it, Bai Luo knew in his heart that this meteorite should have nothing to do with the extinguished star that had not returned. It was a new meteorite that had never appeared in the original book.
Could it be... ...because of me
With doubts, Bai Luo, under the guidance of Kaia, came to the vicinity of the meteorite.
Because of the special nature of this meteorite, the people guarding nearby are basically all original gods with the Eye of God in the Knights Templar.
Even so, one of the orders Qin gave them was that they were absolutely not allowed to look at the stones in the pit.
"This is... ... "
Looking at the deep pit in front of him that was completely surrounded by rock elemental creations, Bai Luo was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Kaeya next to him.
"Considering that the light emitted by the meteorite might also have this effect of making people sleepy, I deliberately asked some original gods who control the rock element to seal this place off. Otherwise, at night... the impact it causes will be terrifying."
Kaia was one of the very few people who had seen the meteorite with his own eyes, so he knew one thing very well—it could emit such a dazzling light during the day, and it would probably be even brighter at night.
In order to eliminate the possibility of the light affecting other people, he used this simplest but most effective method.
"Mr. Pendragon, before you go in, I have one more thing I want to confirm with you."
The two walked to the only door, but Kaiya did not open it directly. Instead, he blocked the door and looked at Bai Luo very seriously and asked.
"What's up?"
"Do you have the Eye of God?"
"... ..."
Good guy, should we say that he is worthy of being called Kaia? Even at this time, he still hasn't forgotten to investigate Bai Luo.
But the timing he chose was indeed very good. Even though he asked so openly, Bai Luo had no way to refute him.
After all, Kaeya had mentioned to him more than once before that ordinary people without the Eye of God would not be able to withstand the power of meteorites.
But Bai Luo absolutely didn't believe that he had no other ideas.
If you ask why... ... I can only say that it is because of putting yourself in their shoes.
If it were Bai Luo, he might have asked the same question.
"Please don't misunderstand me. If you don't have the Eye of God and can't master the power of elements, you will lose consciousness after seeing the meteorite like my subordinates before you."
As expected, when Kaiya saw that Bai Luo did not answer immediately, he directly came up with this excuse.
Little did he know that he also gave Bai Luo a chance.
"Mastering elemental powers? Of course. I'm quite sure I can withstand the force of the meteorite."
There is nothing wrong with what he said. His current profession does allow him to control some simple elemental powers.
As for whether it will be affected by the meteorite... ... Actually, he is not very sure yet.
But his intuition told him that the meteorite inside should not affect him.
"Is that so? If you are ready, I will open the door."
Kaia said as he reached out to the door.
And just as he touched the door, Bai Luo heard the system's voice again.
[Trigger special mission: The morning star twinkling in the sky. ]
[Task requirements: Investigate the meteorite that fell from outer space and learn the truth about the Morning Star.]
[Task Reward: ???]
Ever since Bai Luo rejected Morax's Heart of God last time, the system, which had been pretending to be dead, finally responded again.
However, what was different from usual was that this time it did not ask Bai Luo whether he wanted to accept the mission, but forced him to accept it.
Although he was a little unhappy, the task suddenly given by the system also made Bai Luo feel confident.
In any case, this system has not harmed him so far. Since it gave Bai Luo the task of investigating, it means that it has confirmed that the meteorite is harmless to Bai Luo.
The heavy stone door was slowly pushed open, revealing darkness inside.
It turned out that in order to prevent the light from the meteorite from leaking out, Kaiya specially asked his men to build two stone doors.
The first door was closed again, and Kaia then opened the inner door.
As soon as the door opened a crack, warm light quietly shone in.
After this ray of light appeared, the originally chilly night suddenly became warm, just like suddenly crawling into bed on a cold winter night.
Very comfortable.
"It's really... a light that is hard to like."
The light shining on his body made Kaiya feel warm all over. He wished he could ask his men to move his bed in so that he could stay here tonight.
But the more this happened, the more terrifying he felt the light was.
After resisting the temptation of light, Kaiya looked at Bai Luo who followed him in.
It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he was stunned for a moment.
Judging from the reaction on the other person's face, he should not have been affected at all. Instead, he was interested in moving closer to the edge of the pit and taking a closer look at the meteorite.
"Mr. Pendragon, are you okay?"
Resisting the urge to look at the meteorite in the pit, Kaia asked with a slightly puzzled look.
"Yeah, isn't this just ordinary light? And...was that thing in this state when it fell?"
It is true that Bai Luo is good at acting, but he was not acting this time.
When everyone thought that the meteorite and the light were very strange, Bai Luo did not feel the kind of "warm", "comfortable" and "want to stay here forever" feelings they described.
To him, it was just an ordinary light.
The only thing that interested him was the appearance of the meteorite.
Because no matter how you look at it, this burning meteorite is a miniature version of a star.
Chapter 734 Who told you there was only one
"What does it look like to you?"
Feeling the warmth coming from the meteorite, Kaia turned his back.
The strange thing was that the light source was clearly behind him, but he could not see any shadow on the ground at all.
Even Bai Luo next to him had no shadow.
It's as if shadows don't exist here at all.
"sun."
Without any hesitation, Bai Luo gave his answer.
Compared with the people in this world, Bai Luo has never seen what the sun looks like with his naked eyes, but he has at least seen it in science fiction movies or documentaries.
The meteorite in front of you, which has never appeared in the game, may not give people as shocking a feeling as the real sun, but it is indeed somewhat similar to the sun.
"Yeah... It's very warm, so warm that it's scary."
Even with his back to the "sun", Kaia felt the same way again after a while.
That feeling of being very comfortable and wanting to relax all over your body.
"What do you think would happen if I touched it?"
The "sun" in the middle of the crater made Bai Luo's face red.
For some reason, looking at this "sun", he actually felt a vague sense of sadness.
real.
It's that kind of feeling... like suddenly becoming emo in the middle of the night.
And this time, even if the system didn't urge him, he still felt like touching the other person.
How to describe it
Just like when you were a kid and went to play in the pond with your friends in the summer, everyone jumped into the water from the crooked tree beside the pond, and you learned to climb up.
You know, you shouldn't jump from this.
But your soul seems to have jumped down.
Of course... ... it is recommended that you do not do this.
Well, I did something like this when I was a kid, and my legs cramped after I jumped.
My friends who went to the pond with me thought I was joking and they all clapped and laughed.
Fortunately, an older brother who was passing by saw that something was wrong and rescued me.
Later an ambulance came and took him away.
How to say it... ... When a person is drowning, he or she will subconsciously hold on to everything around him or her.
I can tell you from personal experience that this is true.
When he approached me, I thought of him as my life-saving straw in a daze and hugged his neck all of a sudden.
As a result, when we were getting ashore, I strangled him too tightly and he went into shock. It was said that he couldn't even breathe. Finally, the older generation in the village pinched his Ren Zhong point and saved him.
