Feeling helpless.
Gao Wen did not speak for a while.
But he probably can understand what Selena meant, and he can understand the mentality of the clergy who survived the big shock seven hundred years ago, struggling in the shadows of madness and mutation, the spiritual pillars completely collapsed, and could not even return to the civilized world.
Just like the last moment before he passed, when the plane gradually disintegrated; just like he came to this world, trapped in the sky for millions of years from the perspective of a satellite. In that case, any one person gives him any faint hope, even without any promise and evidence, he will be involuntarily tempted, just like a drowning person will subconsciously grab the straw that floats around him.
What's more, those priests and believers of that year still suffered from the pollution and torture of both the spirit and the soul, and their judgment and willpower had already been reduced to the lowest point.
Returning from the Patriarch's Peak, claiming to have found a way out and willing to help, Gawain Cecil was the last straw for them.
The emotions in my heart finally turned into a sigh without saying a word, and Gao Wen nodded: "I can understand your choice at that time."
At the same time, he also guessed the truth raised by Selena that seven hundred years ago Gawain Cecil suddenly showed some kind of "insight" ability
That is obviously related to the surveillance satellites in the sky!
In this way, even if he did not know exactly what Gavin Cecil found on the ancestral peak that year, he could roughly speculate that the discovery must be related to the satellite array in the sky.
In thought, Gawain looked at Selena Gelfen's eyes: "Are you going out to sea with Gawain Cecil?"
"In a certain way ... yes," Selena nodded. "As a soul, I couldn't really follow them at that time, but I left a spiritual imprint on the storm priests in the team at the time. This can protect their minds from the pollution of the gods, and also allows me to 'see' them. In this way, although I cannot act independently as a 'human', I am also a member of the exploration team. "
Selina really participated in the follow-up exploration!
Gao Wen felt his heart beat suddenly a half-beat. He maintained the apparent calmness and calmness, and Shen asked, "What did you find in the endless sea?"
Selina was silent for a moment, sorted out her words in her memories, and then slowly spoke:
"In the beginning, it was just a normal voyage. After leaving the land, we entered the ocean dominated by the magic of storms and chaos, but the priest of the storm used their remaining power and deep knowledge of the ocean to continuously plan safety routes. We bypassed The storm gathering area and the turbulent magic flowed all the way to the eastern seas.
"During this process, we also passed by several colonial islands of the Tifengs. At that time, the Church of the Storm had disintegrated. Only a few powerful priests serving the military could barely maintain their sanity. The normal maritime passage was about to be cut off. Tifengs Hurrying to evacuate ...
"As we were about to cross the most marginalized colonial island of the Typhons, Count Dyson, who ruled that island, sent a clipper to try to discourage us. He said that an increasing storm was setting off in the open sea, and the sky was becoming extremely polar. Abnormal, challenging the ocean at this moment is tantamount to suicide, but we ignore it ...
"We entered the distant sea that humans have never visited, and entered a completely strange sea without any sea icon. The priests of the storm can no longer provide navigation on the route. They can only help the team to avoid danger by using the perception of the storm and magic. .Govin Cecil instructed us to continue eastward and turn south after passing through a sea full of cyclones and magic vortexes. That was his first trip to the sea, but he seemed to already know where the destination was. He The clear goals of the team have greatly eased the team's uneasiness.
"But on the thirty-second day of the voyage, an accident still occurred.
"First, the storm priests on the boat suddenly fell into a nightmare. In the chaos and horrors, terrible mutations continued to occur. They even jumped into the sea and were swallowed up by the waves. Half of the clergymen were killed. The remaining clergymen who were barely rational became hysterical Several more determined storm priests said that we were 'sailing above the nightmare of God' and that 'the terrible powers of the deep sea have detected the arrival of the blasphemer and will devour everyone', and they suggested that the ship leave the current sea area immediately, But when the sailors were about to do so, they discovered that the ocean had 'locked' the entire ship in place, and waves of mysterious power cascaded to prevent the ship from leaving. "
Sailing above God's nightmare ...
Gao Wen repeated the words mentioned by Selena in the heart, and vaguely guessed where the exploration team had originally arrived.
Above the corpse of the Lord of the Storm!
"I'm afraid those storm believers are the closest to their gods ..." Gao Wen shook his head subtly, "What happened after that?"
Selina noticed from Gao Wen's attitude that the other party may know some secrets of the deities level, but she did not ask, but continued: "We were attacked by marine forces, and the ship was severely damaged in the waves. At a time of greatest crisis, unexpected helpers appeared. "
Gao Wen raised his eyelids: "Is it a Siren?"
"It's a siren," Selina took a deep look at Gao Wen and nodded gently. "They suddenly emerged from the waves and calmed the whole sea with some force we couldn't understand ..."
Gao Wen instantly reacted to why the other person looked at him with a profound look when he mentioned the Kraken, because in the city of Cecil, there was a Kraken!
The existence of Tyre was not a secret, and it had been made public long before the Everlasting forces were expelled from the empire on a large scale. Selina obviously knew that there was an "alliance" relationship between Cecil and the Kraken, and this The foundation of this alliance can fall on the "outer wanderers". Seven hundred years ago, Govin Cecil and others were in danger when they went out to sea. At the time, they were also assisted by sea monsters. At the time, Govin Cecil The purpose of going out to sea seems to be to reach a certain deal with the "outside wanderers" ...
It seems that a lot of clues can correspond to this.
But only Gao Wen knew that there was really nothing to do with the siren, and God knew what they thought then. The siren on the territory simply lost his way home when he went home, and what was ancient? The covenant has nothing to do with ...
But these things are also troublesome to explain. He didn't interrupt Selena's narration, listening to the other party and continuing to say:
"The Siren helped the exploration team lift the crisis and rescued some of the crew members. They also said something very strange, saying that we disturbed them to eat and disturbed their food ...
"Despite some obstacles to communication, Gwen Cecil negotiated with the Krakens. He explained the purpose of the expedition, conveyed the desire for peace, and described some of the Krakens ... Strange ancient ruins.
"He describes a tower that is huge, as if connecting the sky and the earth, and has stood in the world since ancient times.
"The crew felt unbelievable and didn't dare to imagine something like that in the world, but the siren seemed excited when they heard Govin Cecil's description. They knew that the tower existed and seemed to deal with it. There are some fears about it.
"After some negotiations, several daring Krakens finally agreed to the request of Gawain Cecil and became the guides of the exploration team. They said that they could not take the team under the tower, but they could take us nearby. Go in the right direction.
"Our ship was temporarily repaired, and then it continued to sail. Under the guidance of the Siren Guide, it started sailing southeast.
"Because of the Siren's help, the waves started to be our help. We sailed very fast and reached the edge of the mainland soon ..."
Gao Wen originally just listened quietly, then suddenly opened his eyes: "Mainland? Did you just say 'Mainland' ?!"
"Yes, a continent, not an island. I'm sure we saw a very long coastline and strange birds flying from land."
A new continent! A piece of land that Gao Wen has never heard of! Just southeast of the Loren continent, deep in the endless sea!
Gao Wen's mind could not help but outline the land and ocean distribution of the planet that can be inferred at present. So far, the information he has gathered has gradually gathered into a picture with a rough outline. With the information in his mouth, he outlined four pieces of land in his mind.
The Loren continent, which is inhabited by many intelligent races such as humans, is located in the northern part of the equator;
A dragon ruled by Tarron, probably north of the Loren continent;
According to Tyre, the Io continent, ruled by Siren, directly east of the Loren continent;
In addition to what Selina just mentioned, you need to sail from the east to the south before you can reach it. It is located in the depths of the endless sea, and is located in the new continent southeast of Loren.
He realized once again how narrow and occluded the land was, and once again raised his strong desire to explore the ocean.
As far as it is currently known, there are already three places on the planet that humans have never visited, and he is really curious whether there are more fields in the world that humans don't know ...
With curiosity about the new continent, Gao Wen controlled the excitement and continued to ask, "You have explored that new continent? What is on that continent?"
Selina's answer poured him a cold water: "I don't know. Only Gwen Cecil went deep into the land by himself. All other sailors and clergymen stayed on the coast."
Gao Wen frowned: "Why?"
"There are guards on the land, they have existed in ancient times, and the guards that have been running so far," said Selina slowly, "there are actually guards in the ocean around the land, but those guards are still good enough, as long as they are not provoked, They will not be attacked, but those on land ... are extremely hostile.
"The crew and priests on the exploration team are already elite in the mortal world, and there are no shortage of high-level transcendents, but in the presence of those guards, the power of mortals still seems too weak, not to mention, the number of those guards seems to be far more than The entire new continent of our team is under their control. Their source is unknown, and it seems endless. The exploration team cannot penetrate the land at all.
"But strangely, those guards don't attack Gawain Cecil."
Gawain frowned: "Will not attack Gawain Cecil?"
After prolonging himself as a "Govern Cecil" for a long time, he always feels a bit awkward when talking with Selena today ...
Selena affirmed her statement again: "Yes, this was confirmed after the first contact with the guards on that continent.
"Those guards will take the initiative to attack anyone who comes into their range, except Gawain Cecil.
"At that time, some members of the exploration team asked about this, but he said that he did not know the specific reason."
"So, in the end, only Govin Cecil went deep into the New World, and from the results, he should have found what he was looking for ..." Govin frowned slightly, thinking, "Interesting ... these vital memories have been erased ... "
As he talked, he looked at Selena Gellfen.
"If I'm not wrong, you probably don't know his specific experience after leaving the team and going to the depths of the mainland alone, because these contents are also 'dangerous'."
"Someone in the team asked, but he said nothing," Selena replied, affirming Gao Wen's statement on the side. "I can only tell you what I know:
"He told others before departure that he would wait half a month in the safe area of the coast. If he had not returned after half a month, everyone should not wait any longer and leave the continent immediately;
"He returned on the twenty-first day, tired and excited when he returned, apparently having achieved his purpose.
"He told everyone that he had conducted a soul trade, and that the trade could be exchanged for an 'opportunity', but he did not disclose more details of the transaction to anyone at the time."
Gao Wen stared at Selina: "But you know more about the inside story, you know my existence as an 'extraordinary wanderer'."
"Yes, because he told me a part of it alone."
