To be honest, it is not beyond Gao Wen’s expectation to see some strange and mutated versions in the process of searching for his own biography. Seven hundred years of changes are enough for those imaginative unofficial historians to arrange any ancient character The strange and weird, and Gawain Cecil is a gold-lettered signboard known throughout the continent. The thirty-five-year legendary life of this pioneering hero can be said to be an enduring topic among people from all walks of life. As the saying goes, good work, high fame, and early death, where can I find such a good subject
At this time, Gao Wen was even a little thankful for the backwardness of this world, thankful that the cultural industry in this world has not ushered in explosive development because it is in the hands of the upper class. If this place is as developed as the earth, he can see it seven hundred years ago. The group of pioneers were replaced with vertical paintings one by one and hung in the game mall. Charles I gave it away when he logged in. Grand Duke Wilde needed to sign in for seven days. Gawain Cecil was in the first gift package...
And every month this group of people will have new skins, his two granddaughters are very likely to throw the family's money in Krypton Explosion, so that they can lick the old ancestor's new Lihua and he, the person who uncovered the coffin, will be in The embarrassment of maintaining more than 200 plus signs in the whole process, I wish I could destroy myself...
Gao Wen slapped himself hard on the forehead, and forcibly gathered back the thoughts that had begun to run wild. He sighed, and looked at this "popular book" full of absurd arrangements in front of him. Everyone knew that the stories in it were fake. Yet it is a favorite pastime of ladies in the middle and south of the kingdom, a testament to the vitality of popular literature and how boring everyday life can be.
But as the person involved, Gao Wen saw some hidden facts in those fabricated love stories, and the stories in them were not all false.
Except for those confidantes who made it together, there are many adventure stories related to Gawain Cecil. These adventure stories did not appear in any official historical biography, and outsiders are seeing them At the time, I was afraid that he and those confidantes would all be classified as a second-rate family, but Gao Wen knew that at least half of those unknown adventures were real.
Search the ruins of ancient tombs in the wasteland of Gondor to find clues of the spirit of the elements; lead a few soldiers to find a safe passage when crossing the "magic scorching mark", and accidentally discover the Gondor Magisters who turned into crystals; Cecil led the first time to go deep into the mountains, commune with the elements and be blessed...
These are the other sides of Gawain Cecil as a pioneer. From these experiences, it can be seen that he really lives like a hooker with a halo... Of course, it doesn’t matter whether he is a hanger or not. It is intriguing that the well-known story appears in an absurd knight.
This book has been circulated for a long time, and the original author has been unverifiable. It is probably because he was worried about being beaten when he wrote the book, so the only clue left by the author is "Mr. Bard C" as a pseudonym. I know how this Mr. C knows these stories, but he must be a guy who is patient and knowledgable enough. He has visited many people who have had contact with Gawain Cecil or their descendants. After sorting out these materials, among all these adventure stories, there is a chapter that mentions the story of Gawain Cecil challenging the deep sea.
The story goes like this: After assisting the great founding king Charles I to establish the kingdom, Gawain Cecil was deeply worried about the monsters wandering from the wasteland of Gondor and the corruption that was still spreading. So he turned to the elemental spirits of earth, water, fire, and wind for help. The four princesses of the four elemental planes (there are also princesses in that stuff?) were impressed by the young hero knight, and they offered advice to him one after another. Vin Cecil finally accepts the enlightenment of the element of water and sets off to the ocean to find the answer.
Although there was no storm priest as a guide at sea, Gawain Cecil got the help of the sea elf (of course, in Mr. C's writing, the sea elf broke another princess in the process), and the sea elf let the fleet cross Storm around the mainland, and guide the team all the way to the east.
After sailing for an unknown number of days and nights, the sea elves suddenly fell into a panic and dissuaded Gawain from moving forward, because the sea further to the east is the territory of the "sea monsters", and it is impossible for any land-dwelling race to live in the ocean. Contending against the powerful sea monster, but Gawain Cecil was not afraid, he insisted on moving on, so the sea elves had to leave the team, and most of the ships in the fleet also left with the sea elves, only Gawain Cecil Cecil and a few loyal guards continued to sail forward, and after a while, they encountered the sea monster.
The clever reader Gao Wen immediately guessed that there must be a princess in Siren...
But the story here is a bit anticlimactic. The Mr. C just scribbled down that Gawain Cecil gained the trust of the siren and was guided to a "sacred and beautiful" place, where a group of people drank fine wine It lasted for three days and three nights, and then was thrown back to Loren Continent by a storm.
This is clearly intended to fool the reader.
Intuition told Gawain that this story should be the record about the long sea voyage that was missing from Gawain Cecil's memory.
But there is a strange race in it: sea monster.
Gao Wen was very unfamiliar with the name of this race, and he only had a slight impression of it in his inherited memory, but all it pointed to were bizarre myths and strange stories, which were completely insufficient to obtain evidence.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the study room. After the door opened, Druid Pittman walked in: "My lord, I heard Amber say that you are looking for me?"
Gawain nodded, let the old Druid enter the room and asked straight to the point: "Have you heard of Siren?"
"Sir-monster?" Pittman touched his chin, "I've heard some legends about them."
Gawain's eyes lit up immediately: Druid is indeed the profession that knows the most about races in the world. Even if Pittman only knows the legends about sea monsters, the level of detail must be much more than ordinary people know. !
"What do you think!"
Pittman twisted his beard, and said unhurriedly: "The legends of sea monsters are mostly concentrated in the eastern and southern parts of the mainland. In Ansu's side, few people mention them. Even if they are mentioned, they will only appear in horror stories or similar stories. It is said that the sea monster is one of the oldest intelligent creatures in the world, and its history is very likely to be as long as the dragon. Long before the rise of human beings, they have ruled the ocean for tens of thousands of years.
"The sea monster is a race with only women in the whole race. It lives in the depths of the ocean in the far east, and almost never communicates with the intelligent race on the mainland; they all have beautiful appearances, but only the upper body is human-like, and the lower body It's all kinds of sea monsters...
"In addition to these, there are legends that it is not that the sea monsters do not communicate with humans, but because they have the ability to change into human shapes, so when they go ashore, they will immediately blend into the crowd... Yes, change Ability. Many legends point out that sea monsters have ever-changing forms. They are as amorphous as water, so they can change into various shapes. More than half of the sea monster legends in the far sea are their masterpieces.
"In addition, there are legends that sea monsters will visit the land in a planned way. Because they have a long life span, they will observe the development of short-lived human civilization as a pleasure. Whenever human civilization has ups and downs, they will be curious. Some people think that the sea monsters visit the land to find something. In some of the silver elves' books, some people have vowed to leave a record of contact with the sea monsters, and say that the sea monsters will contact the intelligent creatures on the land. Peaceful communication, they sometimes ask for help from the "land people", and as long as the land people can satisfy their wishes, they will get very rich rewards. Sometimes it is rare jewels in the deep sea, and sometimes it is weird and incredible magic It is said that the sea elf royal family has a trident that can release thunder and lightning, which is a gift given to them by the sea monster thousands of years ago.
"However, there are also legends that the sea monsters don't seem to know the value of the gifts they send. They just give some things to land people according to their own preferences. Sometimes you show them the way and they will give you a gift. Pearls in the box, sometimes you do them a great favor, but they will only give you a piece of fish with tooth marks on it. The records in this regard are also left by the silver elves."
Gao Wen interrupted Pittman's narration: "If you encounter sea monsters while sailing in the ocean, how will they treat the people who 'invade the ocean'?"
Pittman raised his eyebrows: "You have touched the blind spot of my knowledge, but according to most legends, encountering sea monsters in the far sea area is very, very dangerous."
"Very dangerous?" Gawain frowned. "Aren't there many legends that sea monsters communicate peacefully with people on land? They even give gifts..."
"But that's on land," Pittman said with a serious expression, "in the ocean, they seem to be very aggressive, especially when the wanderer enters some sea areas that shouldn't be entered, the siren will immediately turn into a Terrifying sea monsters come out to drive them away or even chase them. They are the family members of the sea, and they have unimaginable power on the sea. Even the thunder and lightning summoned by a powerful magister cannot compare with their storms. There are so many things about ocean voyages. Not all horror stories are groundless."
Gao Wen frowned: "Is that so..."
At the same moment, in the eastern deep sea far away from the Loren continent, some elegant and slim figures are quickly crossing the dark and deep seabed. Their snake tails or fish tails are swaying in the sea water, making these beautiful and intelligent creatures look like creatures in the deep sea. Phantoms generally move quickly and are elusive.
They have no idea that they have been discussed by two humans on a distant continent. For these deep-sea saltwater fish, there is still very important work waiting for them to complete.
A siren crossed a "mountain" on the seabed and watched the scene unfolding along the seabed ahead. Her special "deep sea vision" allowed her to see far away even on this dark seabed.
An astonishingly huge tentacles lay across the seabed ahead. The tentacles were covered with layers of corals and deep-sea plants. A large number of fragmented pieces of flesh and blood were scattered around the tentacles. They had completely lost their vitality, but they could not be seen. A little sign of rot.
And in a more distant place, at the end of the tentacles extending like a small mountain range, you can vaguely see a larger shadow, which is a larger body of flesh and blood, which is the direction of the "first excavation site" .
The excavation team leader's long snake tail slapped on the seabed beach, then the tip of the tail was raised high, swaying quickly like a flag in the sea water, and she gave a loud order to her team members: "Dig here today! Come on, everybody!"
The Krakens responded in unison: "Everyone, come on!"
"Don't go too far with 'Squid', don't waste your time!"
"do not waste time!"
"No stealing engine fuel!"
"No stealing engine fuel!"
"Excavation!"
"Excavation!"
