Oracle of Terra

"......................"

The air was a little quiet, which surprised Telles.

"Don't you have a question to ask? Ask me, I will answer honestly, and I will never lie."

"It's really suspicious that you are so frank all of a sudden."

"Yelena, can't you trust others? Anyway, we are also comrades who have shared weal and woe together and faced the inner guards!"

Looking at Telles's voice and emotion, I don't know if I really thought he was a life and death comrade.

But Yelena, who saw that weird scene, didn't feel that this man entrusted his life and death to them at all.

And the plan didn't match expectations. If it wasn't for the huge crow that saved the scene at the end, Yelena felt that they would all fall there, including her father.

"Then explain why your head can grow back after being cut off. What is that fog?"

Yelena could see clearly that the brain, which was originally the center of a person, was composed of a wonderful black mist, which was perfectly reproduced from the bones to the muscle tissue, which made Yelena, who had never faced many things in this land, feel The mystery of this land.

"Indeed, what Yelena said makes people curious, and I also have doubts about the healing ability you said. After all, from the past to the present, there has never been a case where ore disease can be suppressed by a special force."

What Tallulah learned from Kosiche was not only etiquette, but also a lot of ancient knowledge belonging to the undead black snake.

He said that apart from those who thought they were noble and claimed to be the people of the gods, there were indeed real people of the gods in the distant past. As the people of God, they are not exactly the same existence as the sons of men.

In the older past, there seemed to be gods who treated the infected as ordinary citizens and even solved many problems of the infected.

"Teres, are you a godman?"

"puff..."

Looking at the serious expression of the Drake girl, the surprise of a certain Vaivan red dragon seemed to flash in front of Telles's eyes.

"Why are you laughing?"

Tallulah frowned, and Telles waved his hand.

"It's okay, do you think I'm the kind of person who bluffs and deceives me under the banner of religion?"

"No, I think you should understand what I mean. The gods I'm talking about are not the same as that kind of people."

"I know, God and His beloved people, but I am not the kind of spoiled person. In the past, I was called a pioneer, and I was also called a tyrant. I was the king of the sons of men, and I was also a god. Although I do not deny that I have some special powers, I have always regarded myself as a human being, so you don’t have to worry about anything, Tallulah, I am a man as you can see, not a man in human skin monster."

"Honestly speaking, you are already a veritable monster in that appearance."

Chen mercilessly complained about Telles's misty head and posture. Someone knew the distrust it caused, so he could only shrug his shoulders.

"That is a form of life. Although you may find it unbelievable, in the distant past, there were existences with such abilities everywhere. Although they were called gods, I just think they are more like some kind of higher-level living beings, not the 'gods' in the Lateran teachings."

The so-called "god" is just a bit hard to chew, a bit hard to kill creatures, Telles still proved this with the evolutionary technology tree, the combination of spells and mechanical engineering allowed him to bury the sun and destroy the high tower.

"So, you want to say that you are a higher life form?"

"Miss Chen, did you ever say that you can't speak very well?"

"No."

Chen's upright look made Telles feel a headache.

"Okay, then... let it be like this, I am an ancient high-level life form, the ability called authority is to change the nature of the origin stone crystal to absorb and release it, and the fog you see is It is a special element that makes up my body, anyway, it is a substance that makes the scientists in the laboratory feel swollen, and I can't explain it very clearly myself."

After all, that wasn't his own ability, but Kazdel's.

When I used it before, I used it freely when Kazdel and his mind were united. Now, because I saved him, most of the authority he had swallowed is only the function of the castrated version, which can be fully utilized. It's not the size it should have been in the past.

But as the 'god' of Sarkaz, Kazdel still has a very high protective power and dominance over Sarkaz.

This is also the idea that Telles would want Sarkaz mercenaries so much. In the past, the gods could protect the specific races under his rule, and he used to rely on mechanical technology to fight against other countries, so his There are not only all kinds of Sarkaz under his rule, but also other races living together. Whether it is entertainment, crafts or even inventions, he also understands that diversity can bring development, and adhering to the rules just slows down.

The power of God may be great. Telles, who has seen the era of technological prosperity, can understand that the power of God will be replaced by the development of science sooner or later.

"Is it."

Listening to Telles' answer, Tallulah settled her doubts. If he was some kind of ancient existence, then such a magical Dragon's Back Sword could also be explained.

"So you can actually cure the infected without too much burden?"

"Uh..."

Tallulah's gaze pierced a bit. He did nonsense before that he would pay a price for curing the infected, but he would not lie.

"It consumes more energy, but it's not impossible to cure, but my recommendation is still to find a reliable medical institution to cooperate, and then study the ore disease. It's best to keep my ability secret." Looking at what Tallulah wanted to say Telles smiled, "Of course, you can also tinker with some nasty potions to pretend to be treated, but Tallulah, I still have to say one thing, my treatment is not free, if the infected people do nothing , doing nothing, then it doesn’t make much difference if he is killed by ore disease, or just dies like this, I will not help this kind of person, unless he has some potential value and contribution.”

"................................"

Telles' words are very realistic, but Tallulah, who upholds the principle of not forcing others, coming and going freely, and integrating for one idea, will not force Telles, because it is wrong.

"I see, I will do as you said, but must it be a bad potion?"

"It must be an unpalatable potion. It tastes good and can suppress ore disease. How can there be such a good thing."

"I remember the cold medicine I drank when I was a child was quite delicious."

"Hui Jie..."

Tallulah didn't know how to complain about her sister for a while.

"What's wrong?"

"Forget it, anyway, I want to hear your contribution benchmark."

"When you arrive at the border of Yan Kingdom, find a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and then set up a small town to open up wasteland. During the period, those who can work and act normally will directly give them unpalatable potions to solve the erosion of ore disease. You can use other merits to come to me in exchange for the nasty potion."

"You deliver it yourself."

"how is this possible."

Tesla didn't want to do something that would raise suspicion.

"I will personally make the nasty potion. When the time comes, Miss Chen will send us more bitter gourds after returning to Longmen. I can add some ingredients to the bitter gourd juice to suppress the ore disease. Of course, this is not a complete solution like Yelena or Mr. Captain , but play a slowing effect, people who will die of ore disease in about ten years can be extended to 20 years.”

"That's really..."

Tallulah really didn't expect such a rough effect.

"Of course we must avoid excessive use of origin stone skills. The effect of bitter gourd juice will decay. My authority is not as good as before. If it was before, I could solve the aggravation of infection symptoms once and for all, but now I can only slow it down, and people like Yelena The recovery of severe patients to mild symptoms requires precise treatment by myself."

"I'm a little curious about how you used to govern people."

Yelena recalled the wonderful healing, and those black Originium fluids.

"It's very simple, just snap your fingers in the air and you'll be fine."

In the past, His Majesty Kazdel could be called mighty, but in the past, even if the infected could live like a normal person, they would appear extremely small under the war and the struggle between the gods, unlike now, the infected Conflict with the position of ordinary people, hate each other, and discriminate against each other.

In the past, not only the infected, but also the people at the bottom were in a very bad situation. After all, in the eyes of God, they were like grass, just like the straw in the wheat field. Once a wave is harvested, another wave will grow again.

"Snap, I'm really curious about what kind of person you were before."

"In the past, I could tell you if you were interested, but now, I have answered most of what you want to know, and I can't answer some things that involve privacy. Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"So, Telles, the last question, why are you helping us now?"

Tallulah didn't think this man was out of pure kindness.

"To survive, Tallulah, everyone on this land is struggling for survival."

61. People who plot evil

— Kazdel Somewhere

This is a dark space, a seal of nothingness, a cage of death that traps demons.

The black Crow King scanned the demons trapped here, and it spit out a cloud of darkness.

It was a demon absorbed from the emperor's inner guard. Although he was already familiar with dealing with this chaotic creature, and he had undergone corresponding transformations, Lei Wen had never been able to fully grasp these monsters in the dark depths.

If he absorbed it, he might not be able to bear those powers. After all, he was not like those inner guards who used special rituals to become an inhuman thing, and always resisted the erosion of demons. He was able to maintain himself so effectively that let It is thanks to the efforts of His Majesty and those magicians that the power of demons does not invade his consciousness.

It's a pity that the result of doing so is that there is a limit to the power of demons it can withstand.

And that bodyguard is the limit.

"Come out, sneaky, I've smelled you since the beginning, brat."

"Heh... I just saw that you left here, and I was a little curious. After all, you are a mobile disaster. If you appear in a densely populated area, you will attract the attention of other countries. A living fossil like you who has mastered the mysteries of Sarkaz spells , I am afraid that many people will arrest you first."

"Hmph, are you just here to see the state of the demon?"

A group of shadows squirmed and finally emerged. It was a dark guy. Raven knew that this guy was also a member of the royal courts, but it was different from the original Kazdel's remaining subjects. The heir of one of their kings clashed with the Sarkaz monarch of a certain generation, and was killed by this guy in front of him. The speaker of the tribunal, a witness to the ancient history of Sarkaz, has no mind to care about these things. His job is to suppress demons, and deal with collecting unfavorable intelligence about Kazdel.

After overthrowing the rule of the gods and people, this old crow lost interest in most things, but right now, the return of that one did bring him a huge surprise, but this does not mean that he can Continue to serve that lord, after all, many things are not as simple as imagined.

"Please don't stare at me like this, Lord Speaker, these demons are dangerous and terrifying. Everyone will care about what changes will be caused by your departure, and I am just the last member of the royal court to convey to the other It means, after all, you have been guarding this place for countless years. From our point of view, your greatness is naturally immeasurable, but similarly, this place is also an important place for Kazdel, and the energy contained in it can turn a country into a deadly place. If Exposure to broad daylight, I am afraid that no country will be able to sit still."

Sombra's words made Raven narrow his eyes, and the oppressive feeling made Sombra retreat slightly, but immediately, the Black Crow King averted his gaze and sight.

"Don't worry about that, I don't intend to leave Kazdel, just leaving is just to catch one of the demons that left the deep underground, if you understand, get out of my territory, if you don't want to offend me I say."

"Naturally understand."

After Sombra left in awe, Raven shook his head.

The one said not to expose his existence. Raven actually wanted that one to return to Kazdel to rule the whole territory again, but the current situation of Kazdel really made him feel ashamed. Worthy of the power that swept across the earth, but now, there is only an empty shell that is not worthy of the name, and many of the heirs left by that one have also died in the struggle for the throne of this illusory king. This matter is in a non-interfering attitude, but Lei Wen recalled the appearance when he saw the selected girl a few days ago.

"what a pity."

Black Crow gave her the first amulet made by His Majesty, but she failed to survive as he wished. If he could find His Majesty sooner, that child Theresa might not be here either. Died in the stupid internal struggle.

If it is the peaceful era described by His Majesty, she must be an excellent monarch.

But unfortunately, this land has never really ushered in peace.

It's better to look at what that one is doing at this time. After not seeing his master again for a long time, Lei Wen is still a little excited in his heart.

"Gah?"

But when his consciousness reached the split black crow, it felt dazed that its paws were tied up and hung on a long pole.

"I said Brother Telles, do you think it is best to use crows to catch rock crabs?"

"How would I know."

The white-haired Sarkaz was clutching the pole, sweating profusely. After leaving the snow field, the climate changed suddenly. The snow monsters who were originally wrapped in white robes were now shirtless and hunting rock crabs with Telles in the wasteland.

As for fishing crabs on land, bait is also needed, and Telles didn't have any good things, so he used the splits of his own familiars as bait.

"coming!"

The vibration from the ground made Telles' eyes brighten. The snow monsters felt strange when they heard this movement. Is this the movement of the pan crab?

"Listening to this movement is a big guy!"

"I haven't eaten anything other than Snowfield!"

The faces of the snow monsters all showed joy at the novelty.

- Boom!

Huge arthropods stained with mud burst out of the ground, the steel-like shell shining with metallic luster and sharp claws exuded bursts of cold light, and the snow monsters picked up their weapons swiftly, while the warlocks opened their distance and prepared to attack. to output.

"........."

Raven, who was tied to the boom, looked at his master helplessly, and saw the white-haired Sarkaz playing with the huge and cumbersome pan crab with the boom in his hand with a playful smile.

"Hiss, Brother Telles, you are such a powerful bird, you don't even flap."

"what?"

Hearing what the snow monster said, Telles realized that the bird he had used as bait did not flap its wings, but the brave man looked at him with an innocent expression.

"Huh? Raven?"

Looking at the crow's humanized expression, he realized that it was his faithful fat crow, Raven, who had shifted his consciousness here.

"It came just right!"

But he didn't intend to let go of this natural bait!

The metal shell of the Pan Crab was deformed by the serial bombing of the spell, and the Pan Crab seemed to realize that the situation was wrong and prepared to retreat, but at this moment, the tall Ursus holding a big knife, and the snow monster called the Big Bear made a move. Stop roaring.

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!!!!"

That is not so much beheading as smashing.
