Giant of Light: I am the Old Ones

Chapter 317 Wonderful Night Underground
Amanda saw the mysterious sign on the stairs leading to the underground part of the Bastille.

A group of people gathered around a professor who had white beard and hair and was wearing a standard uniform, but looked like a barbarian, listening to what the professor was saying.

"Ah, he is a student from the college. He looks like he is only in the third grade. Students at such a young age have to come here to find materials for the semester report. Look at you, as students of our Coweta College, you are already in the seventh grade. After graduation, you still have to let me, an old man, take you here to explain it in person. I, Professor Chekhov, have a long-standing reputation."

Amanda nodded politely and looked at the seniors from other schools looking at her with a slightly envious or perhaps hostile look.

Omega's senses were fully activated and he found the underground part of the Bastille that the old man who rang the bell mentioned. All the entrances on the surface were actually blocked with large stone bricks from the inside, making it impossible to enter.

Only one secret passage remains passable.

As for what's in there, Omega did find something interesting.

Some walls are similar to the underground origin stones of the Walter family, but they have lost all divine contamination, and only pure words can be interpreted as data.

In Omega's vision, the words were clearly visible and were already being translated.

But Amanda was still ready to go in and take a look. At this moment, Professor Chekov had already led his students to the secret passage. It seemed that he also knew the secret here.

He began to speak:

"This prison was originally designed to defend against attacks from the east of Paris. But earlier, before the Bastille Fortress was established, a Nordic barbarian named Eivor even led his tribe to charge there. Fortunately, they were repulsed in the city of Paris at that time."

Amanda followed behind and listened. If someone can open this secret passage, he doesn't have to worry about it.

However, he looked down at his uniform and the logo on his body. According to relevant regulations, combatants, even intern students, must wear regular uniforms in daily life.

He only retained some college logos and wore inconspicuous training uniforms, so some people could tell at a glance that he was a student of the college.
When the barbarians retreated, they left behind some mysterious wall blocks. It is said that they originally planned to establish a colony at this location. Those wall blocks are products left over from the ancient Nordic mythology era and are also symbols of some of the beliefs of the Nordic barbarians.

It is said that when fighting near the words recorded on those wall blocks, those of Nordic blood can receive a huge improvement.

Compared to what the professor said about the Nordic people being repulsed, according to the information Amanda had read in the past, it was actually the Nordic people who did not find what they were looking for in Paris.

At that time, Paris was still one of the best cities in Europe, but it still looked no different from the current countryside.

The group of Norsemen turned around and headed towards Britain, where they fought with the Celts.

But in the end no one won, because with the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons, both the Norse and Celts were defeated.

Those are the scope of history. Amanda is only concerned about what is recorded on the walls that originally had divine substances.

Omega said that the Giant of Light is not an omniscient and omnipotent god. Even if he encounters unseen words, he needs to find out from Amanda's memory whether he has learned these words in the past, and then corresponds letter by letter.

During the development stage of writing, almost only Chinese hieroglyphics survived.

As for cuneiform, which is the origin of the letters of each language, although it can be regarded as a hundred flowers blooming, it is really difficult to match those small languages ​​​​and those that are too ancient.

At this time, Professor Chekov had already talked about the history of the formal establishment of the Bastille Fortress.

The terrain here is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It was previously used as an invasion camp by the Nordics, but now it has become an impregnable fortress for Paris to resist external attacks.

The wall blocks left by the Nordics were regarded as relics of the curse, or simply the act of burying the enemy's symbol in the soil as a self-proclaimed victory became the foundation of the Bastille Fortress.

But it’s a bit strange that this kind of thing is called an origin wall block. What is the origin of this?
The feeling at the time that the sacrifices related to Naia discovered in Britain represented the relationship between stone and flesh was very likely to have originated from the emergence of wall blocks and the worship of these things in the early days of primitive human civilization. It represented the evolution of human beings from the wilderness. A symbol of barbarism moving toward civilization.

Those bloody sacrifices of primitive civilizations do not represent primitiveness, but are a manifestation of having the ability to understand and begin to understand the world.

People began to realize that in addition to the same kind and food in this world, there is also a concept called "God" to represent the natural world they see.

This is how it all started.

No matter how God changes from a natural god to a conceptual god and then to an individual god in the future, he will finally return to nature in the era of human rule and the world will be restored to justice.

As the origin of everything, it must be very interesting to be the first to make these origin blocks and let primitive humans start thinking and understanding the existence of this world.

However, this knowledge was derived by Amanda herself. Professor Chekhov only opened the secret passage after talking about the history of the Bastille Fortress and its eventual transformation into the Bastille.

A stone wall slowly pulled away from the sides to reveal stairs leading underground.

What surprised Amanda was that there were notice boards and kerosene lamps that could be lit at any time on both sides of the wall. There was even a notice board stating the plan to continue laying circuits and erecting electric lights in the secret passage.

It seems that this is a secret passage, but it is just a tourist attraction that can be opened to the public.

Do the people at the local college really not know that there are origin wall blocks underground?

Although all the divine pollution above has dissipated, there are still risks that people cannot understand after all. The French are really big-hearted.

Thinking this way, Amanda followed the students of Covita Academy and walked into the underground stairs together.

At this time, Omega also roughly translated the words on the origin wall block he saw.

Thanks to being exposed to many cuneiform texts of primitive civilizations in the Department of Occult Studies that Professor Abtis loved, Omega translated about half of the texts with the help of Amanda's memory.

In the process of descending the stairs, Omega began to gradually tell the content of these words, which surprised Amanda a little.
