"Nailuo." Angel repeated the name in a low voice: "the city is also named after him?"
The wise man nodded.
Quite narcissistic. Angel thought to himself.
"So, was he deified by you?"
Looking at Nello in the mural, angel felt that it was not like a man, but more like a god worshipped and imagined by ignorant primitive people in the totem.
"Deification? Why can't nailuo be a God?" Asked the wise man.
"God?" Angel was noncommittal: "I've heard that there are gods in many worlds. Which world is nailuo?"
Angel's sentence sounds normal, but as long as you are not stupid, you can hear it with a taste of irony.
As a child, Jon taught him science. When he grew up, Sanders told him the truth. In this process, no one has taught him to believe in gods.
Jon didn't believe it, Sanders disdained it. For human beings in this world, there is not no "God" in the literal interpretation, and there are "gods" in the mortal world to spread the doctrine of truth, goodness and beauty, but these are essentially a tool for the upper class to regulate the lower class people.
In the wizard world, there are "gods", but most of the gods mentioned by wizards are derogatory.
Demon God, evil god, external God, evil fire god, wild God... Etc. There is no doubt that these are powerful beings and need to be honored with "he". But the verbal address is respect, but look at the wizard's naming of them. There are basically no good words. Wizards respect their strength, not their authority as "gods".
In the wizard's view, the so-called God is just a kind of extraordinary life. As long as they are strong enough, they should also lie on the wizard's research platform, be dissected and tested, and become thick records.
Therefore, when the wise master said that Nara was a God, angel did not show it, but directly pushed Nara's identity to foreign visitors.
Visitors from other worlds, for ordinary wizards, it's OK to turn a blind eye. But for extremist sects and the will of the world, foreign visitors are useless beetles.
"Nailuo was born in the southern region, and you don't have to be extreme. My so-called God is an existence that reaches the extreme in one aspect." Wise men dominate the Tao.
Angel: "Oh."
Angel's response is very insipid. What the wise master explains can be reluctantly called "God", but this is absolutely different from the "deification" in the murals.
The wise master sighed with disapproval when he saw angel. For Nello's evaluation, all people have all kinds of views, and there is no need to forcibly correct angel's views.
He just said faintly: "when a certain aspect reaches the extreme, human beings have a word that can be aptly described."
"That's... A miracle."
Hearing this word, angel was a little uneasy. Suddenly turned his head and looked at the master of the wise man: "miracles? Did nailuo achieve miracles?"
The wise master shook his head: "if there is a miracle, how can nailuo City encounter changes? However, nailuo, in my opinion, is the most qualified person to touch the miracle."
Angel: "at that time, Nara's realm had reached the peak of legend?"
The wise master shook his head and said, "it's still one step away from legend."
Angel had nothing to say for a moment. A wizard who has not reached the legendary level, you think of miracles. It's flattering to say it's generous.
You know, legends are far from miracles, and there are countless thresholds. Not to mention, you're not even a legend.
The wise master also saw angel's speechless expression. He smiled and said, "in fact, I see people very accurately. I think you have a great chance to become a legend as long as you don't fall."
Angel: so that's how Nello was fooled by you
The master of the wise man smiled: "I don't have that great ability to deceive Nara... When you get to that step, you will understand what a miracle is. By the way, aren't you a savage cave? You can ask the three ancestors in your organization. They have witnessed a lot of legends and should know about it."
"Also, if you seriously ask the three ancestors, I believe they will make the same judgment as me. Your chance of becoming a legend is not small."
Angel: "don't you know the wise master has heard of a psychological effect? When you think there is a possibility that things will go bad, no matter how small the possibility is, it will happen."
"So, the question of probability, let him stay in the cloud called probability."
The wise master looked at Angel unexpectedly: "your words are interesting."
Angel: after so many digressions, should we get to the point
The wise master: "aren't we talking about the subject now? I thought you would be interested in these murals."
As he spoke, the wise master walked to the other wall and gently clicked a mural on the wall to show angel.
Angel looked along the finger of the wise man. When he saw the content on the mural, his eyebrows frowned slightly.
On the mural is a figure bathed in brilliance and with four pairs of crow feather wings behind it. Under this shadow, a group of people with crow feather wings are kneeling, but their wings are logarithmic, either two pairs or one pair.
If you only look at these people with crow wings, this mural looks like a group of crow wings, worshiping the strong in the family.
But beside the figures of the four pairs of crow wings, there was a flag flying.
As he looked closely at the flag, angel saw a familiar logo.
Snake wrapped cone!
A dark snake wrapped around a golden cone.
Although the color of as like as two peas of Angell's snake are different from that of a cone, it is almost the same as this.
"This is... Snake wrapped cone?" Angel looked suspiciously at the wise master and waited for his explanation.
"You asked me before, what experiment is nailuo city doing?" Instead of directly answering angel's question, the wise master talked about other topics: "the scenes in the mural depict part of the experimental results, and the object of the experiment is a group of people eager to become stronger."
"You mean these people with crow feather wings? They were ordinary people?" Angel frowned.
Wise master: "not necessarily ordinary people, but also many extraordinary people who are extremely eager to become stronger."
The wise master did not deny that there were ordinary people among these people, which actually made Angel feel uncomfortable.
Witches should solve their own problems and try not to involve ordinary people. This is the default rule of the wizard world. The use of ordinary people for living experiments is directly listed as a taboo in the wizard world.
"I know what you are thinking. Some things are indeed taboo, but the most taboo things also need exceptions. In despair, both ordinary people and extraordinary people yearn for a rope that can be grasped by them to pull them out of the abyss of death."
"All of these people are people who have experienced despair and desire to change."
Someone eager to change? In angel's view, he is actually a person full of obsession.
But sometimes I have to say that in despair, the most supportive force is obsession.
Angel: "the result of the experiment is to give these people who are eager to change and have wings?"
The wise master: "wings are just extraordinary signs. What really changes is their body and spirit."
"So this experiment is a success?"
"It's a success, but all the winners are on it." The wise master pointed to the crow winged man in the mural painting, saying less, but saying more is absolutely not much.
"So more people are given hope and pushed into despair again?"
The wise master could hear some sarcasm in angel's tone, but he didn't care: "the reality is always cruel."
I took it with me.
Angel was a little depressed, but he couldn't say anything. He now speaks for these people ten thousand years ago, more still standing on the moral highland, but he also knows that it is difficult to understand the current things if he is not in the current position.
With a deep breath, angel pressed down his emotions and asked, "what does this have to do with the snake winding the cone?"
The wise master said lightly, "do you know what the snake winding the cone represents?"
Angel thought about it and said, "I've heard of the mark of snake winding cone, which is called the eternal snake emblem; in addition, it has something to do with worshippers."
Wise master: "what you said belongs to a little knowledge."
"The snake entangled cone is a force among the worshippers, just like the karabit, Greek and Hogg... All have the so-called power of pure blood. The snake entangled cone is the power composed of the purest blood of the worshippers."
Wise master: "ask a digression, you should know someone?"
Angel nodded. If it comes to families, he is human. But if people belong, they belong to knowledgeable people.
"Compared with the example I just gave, you know people, but you don't care about the so-called pure blood." Wise men dominate the Tao.
"The characteristic of knowing people is that there are no characteristics. Without characteristics, why care about special or not." Angel replied casually.
"You're right. This is probably the reason why knowing people has become the mainstream in the wizard world in just ten thousand years. Ten thousand years ago, the number of knowing people was no different from that of others, but now, more than half of the people in the southern region are knowing people."
The wise master said, "if you're far away, go back to the snake entanglement cone. The snake entanglement cone is a power of worshippers. As for the name of their power, I don't know."
"Baiyuan people of pure blood are actually very exclusive. They can cooperate and are great partners, but it is very, very difficult to get close to them. Moreover, Baiyuan people don't seem to want to be completely open. What they want is to be recognized as human beings, but they want to maintain their own closure, which is very contradictory."
"Only a handful of people in nailuo city know the real name of snake entangled cone. I belong to the category I don't know."
"The worshippers with the snake wrapped cone call themselves the 'medical team', but they are arranged by nailuo as the 'experimental group'."
"Now you should understand why there is a snake wrapped cone flag on this mural?" The wise man said faintly, "because they are the people who do this experiment."
After saying this, the wise master took angel to the next wall and pointed to the mural in a corner.
There is no one in this mural, only a big tree bearing blood red fruit. On the body of this tree, there is also the sign of snake winding cone!
"This is also an experiment of the experimental group, which studies prolonging life. The effect is not bad. It is a small achievement. Only when the disaster happened ten thousand years ago, the big tree was uprooted. Where it is now is unknown."
The wise master pointed to the other side of the mural, on which was a garden floating in mid air.
"The magic plant planted in the sky garden is also a masterpiece of the experimental group. However, you can't see the sign of snake winding cone here, just like you can't see the magic plant planted inside."
In the following time, the wise master was almost always explaining the details of the murals to angel.
These details are either directly related to the "experimental group" or indirectly related to worshippers.
At this time, angel understood why the wise master would say that murals were the main topic. The questions he asked, whether experiments, snake wrapped cones or worshippers, can be found in the murals.
"This is a hundred hands experiment, and the results are not optimistic. This is an illusion separation experiment, which mainly studies the brain. I heard that the experimental results are good, but I don't have a record here, otherwise I think this record is very useful to you. Also, this is..." the wise master was still explaining, but the voice suddenly stopped the next second.
Angel looked suspiciously at the master of the wise man, but found that his eyes were staring at a mural.
There is a familiar figure on the mural, the hair with "floating" effect and the background with halo. There is no doubt that this is Nara.
In the mural, nailuo faces them with his back, and there is a transverse gap on his front.
It looks like a space crack, but it's a little different. It seems that there is a dark smell floating out of it.
And this gap, thin at both ends and bloated in the middle, looks like... Like
One eye.
At the center of the mural, that is, above the crack, there appears the familiar symbol of snake winding cone.
"This is also the experiment of the 'experimental group'?" Angel: "Lord Nero participated in it himself?"
The wise master smiled in a low voice: "yes, it really has something to do with the experimental group. But I'm sorry I can't tell you the specific content of this experiment. It's a confidential experiment."
Earlier, when they signed the truth book contract, the wise master said that he would not inform angel of some experiments, so angel had long been prepared.
However, even Nello was personally involved in the experiment, and angel was really interested in what it would be.
Angel gazed at the mural carefully and kept all the details in mind.
Although the wise master is unwilling to say, as long as there are clues, he will always find the answer.
I can't. isn't there a DORO?
