Chapter 175: Wandering in the Spirit World and Frank’s New Products

422

After burying Budi, Klein raised his head and saw many people around him observing silence at the grave. They have one obvious thing in common, that is, the faces of the Southern Continent and the clothing of various countries in the Northern Continent.

If you want to bury your relatives, you must have a certain family background. If you want to have time to mourn your family members, you must have some savings, so as not to go hungry because you don't go to work or lack labor after paying the funeral expenses.

As time goes by. The people mourning in silence gradually left, and Klein followed them. After walking a few steps, he suddenly felt a coldness around him. Then in his spiritual vision, a pale flame door opened beside him, and the snake-tailed demigod appeared in front of him. side.

Klein looked around and chose to come to a tree in the corner. He held his arms on the railing and pretended to look at the scenery in the distance.

The snake-tailed demigod handed him a letter. Klein thanked him in a low voice, opened the letter and read it.

"... There are two ways to obtain a messenger. One is to think of an accurate description, perform a ceremony, summon the corresponding spirit world creature, and sign a necromantic contract with it. The other is to directly enter the spirit world and look for the messenger you hope to get. After obtaining its consent, sign a contract with it and record the precise description language for future use.”

"The first method is relatively simple, but quite dangerous, because what fits the description may be a powerful spiritual creature or a strange evil spirit. Every time you summon, you are not completely sure what will be attracted, and it is difficult to predict in advance for divination. Risk avoidance.”

“The danger with the second approach is that it’s not easy to find the right messenger and there’s a risk of getting lost in the spirit world.”

"Unless you are a traveler, I don't recommend the second method. For the first method, I can provide some tested 'descriptions'. As long as the process is accurate, the risk is quite low, but it may not be satisfactory to you. In addition, the contract If you need to use the power of the undead realm, you can use my copper whistle to provide it."

“The format consists of the following paragraphs…

"Of course, if you don't mind, I can give that person to you and let it sign a contract with you..."

That one? Klein was startled for a moment, and then he understood.

"I asked Mr. Azik how he could have a messenger. What Mr. Azik meant was..."

After reading the letter, Klein hesitantly looked at the snake-tailed demigod beside him and asked tentatively:

"Mr. Azik, do you think you can be my messenger?"

The snake-tailed demigod nodded. Klein didn't sense any rejection from him, but he also didn't sense willingness.

"No, no, I think it's better not to trouble you. You have helped me many times."

So Klein quickly shook his head: "Also, I remember Mr. Azik said that if you are damaged, you should go to the place related to the copper whistle to repair it. If it is transferred to me, there may be additional dangers."

The snake-tailed demigod was noncommittal, looking indifferent.

Klein breathed a sigh of relief and said tentatively: "So, I hope to get your help and go to the spirit world to find out if there are any kind creatures willing to sign a contract with me, and then try to summon them myself."

The demigod nodded and disappeared into the cemetery.

Somehow, while talking to the demigod, Klein kept feeling an extremely slight shaking on the ground. After the demigod left, the shaking immediately disappeared.

He touched the copper whistle and suddenly realized that this was a cemetery, and the corpses here were buried with local people. Just like the Budi he brought, many of them should have been buried without going to the church before they died! If this demigod of the "God of Death" path had stayed a little longer, he would probably have met many people here who had not been cremated!

Klein was embarrassed and prepared to turn around and leave, but happened to meet a group of people who came to express their condolences.

Opposite seemed to be a family. There were two men, both locals with reddish-brown hair. The older one was fatter and had kind features. Behind them were several children with completely different hair colors, skin colors, and appearances. The tallest young indigenous man saw that Klein was not someone he knew and had no intention of saying hello, so he stepped aside to make it easier for Klein to walk through the narrow path.

Klein lowered the brim of his hat and thanked him in a low voice.

He glanced at the tombstone and saw a name engraved on it in Rune language:

Durda Solera

After walking two meters away, Klein could still hear the young man whispering to the fat middle-aged man:

"I'm sorry, Dad, I couldn't get Loen's nationality for my mother...my mother can only be buried here..."

The hoarse middle-aged man's voice drifted over from afar. He comforted his son: "It doesn't matter. It's good if you have it. You have to take good care of your brother in the future. Then there is no need to apply for mine. I will use the household registration of a local in Luoside." , and your mother will be buried here from now on."

The young man was silent.

While they were talking, the children whispered something, and then soft cries filled the air.

Klein sighed and walked down the road he came from. He saw the busy gravekeeper complaining that the tsunami had brought too much work to him. There were many coffins waiting for cremation behind him.

He stopped and watched for a while, and then quickly left the public cemetery.

…

Back at his hotel, Klein turned a blind eye to Daniz who suddenly jumped up from the sofa. He went back to his room and locked the door. He summoned the snake-tailed demigod, indicating that he was ready to start roaming the spiritual world.

"I remember the rules for traveling in the spirit world. Don't listen, don't look, and don't look at any living creature for more than three seconds." He said, "I'm ready, please start."

The snake-tailed demigod nodded, stretched out a hand to grab his arm, and then jumped into the air, taking Klein into the real and illusory, weird and mysterious world.

The creatures living in the spirit world have their own habits. Sometimes they are in a bunch when they encounter them, and sometimes they wander around for a long time without encountering one.

And it is even more difficult to select a spiritual creature who has a good compatibility with you and is willing to serve as your messenger.

While roaming, Klein suddenly saw a huge bird-like creature. It obviously had the beak, head and wings unique to birds, but strangely had no eyes, no legs, and only six tentacles. The bird-shaped spiritual world creature was filled with an aura of silence similar to that of the snake-tailed demigod. It must have been attracted by the latter. Klein shook his head. He felt that there was strong hostility and fear in the bird-shaped spiritual world creature. Looking at himself It's like looking at a ham being carried by a snake-tailed demigod.

hr Klein expressed his dissatisfaction, so the snake-tailed demigod turned a blind eye to it and wandered away from the side.

The bird-like creature watched from a distance for a while, and then moved away with its tentacles.

Not actually flying? Then why do you have wings... Klein couldn't help complaining that the creatures in the spirit world looked too casual.

But it is very strong, at least stronger than me. It should be a Sequence 5 in the outside world... I will definitely not be able to defeat this strange-looking bird...

In essence, the spirit world is a very dangerous place. If you are not careful, you may encounter a demigod-level terrifying existence... Klein was taken to continue traveling and found that the place was really chaotic. The seven paths could have marked the location. Although the clear brilliance is always located at a high place, covering the "sky", they can always be seen under the feet, left and right, front and back.

If it weren't for the "God of Death" path demigod who was good at roaming the spiritual world, he wouldn't be able to tell the direction at all.

If you use the "divination staff method" to find the direction in the spirit world, or place an object somewhere, and then use the divination method to reach the destination, that should be possible... Klein thought to himself, planning to wait for him Got a chance to try it myself.

Then, he saw pairs of firelights flashing below and to his side, and shadows chased around the demigod, as if a group of invisible creatures were running with the snake-tailed demigod.

Passing through the dark blue irregular shapes symbolizing the sea, and floating past the green light ball symbolizing the forest, these light shadows and firelight still followed Klein and the others.

These creatures are not hostile to me... Klein can clearly feel the goodwill expressed by these flaming creatures. They have been following them nearby, not attacking, but like an invisible fellow traveler, traveling with them without direction or goal. Wandering in the spiritual world.

But Klein did not choose to form a contract with these friendly creatures because he found that he could not see their appearance clearly.

This is either because the sequence gap is too large and I cannot accurately recognize the other party's image, or because my path is different from theirs, and there is some occult resistance.

Moreover, the snake-tailed demigod seems to be a little nervous. Surrounded by so many spiritual creatures, it is understandable for the demigod to be nervous.

So Klein regretfully gave up the idea of ​​communicating with these friendly creatures, and signaled the snake-tailed demigod to speed up, preparing to try to find them when he becomes stronger.

As the demigods accelerated their roaming speed, the firelight and shadows seemed to realize that they would not be chosen by Klein. They stopped following and gathered together to form a smoky shadow. Then the shadows disappeared and the firelight also extinguished at the same time. .

Klein reluctantly turned his head. Seven or eight seconds later, a looming collapsed building appeared "in front" of him.

He recognized at a glance that this building was the ruins of the ancient elves occupied by the dead "Poseidon" Kavitua!

And in that building, there was a giant jellyfish-like spiritual creature floating in the building. It stretched out transparent tentacles covered with mucus and incorporated the surrounding area into its "territory".

At the top of each tentacle is a white skull with deep eye holes, which is constantly swaying with light and slow swings.

From the appearance point of view, it looks like a mixture of the "Sailor" and "Death" pathways... However, spiritual creatures cannot be distinguished simply by sequence.

This giant jellyfish doesn't look aggressive, it's very quiet, and it doesn't make violent moves in response to the arrival of outsiders. From this point of view, it may be worthy of communication, but it is too big... Kavitua can't even occupy the entire place. Relic, but it works. I'm at sea now, so I can't let any future messages I send turn into sea monsters emerging from the water. Not only is this picture so beautiful, but the messenger himself is also easily attacked and injured... He faced off against the black hole in the eye socket of the giant jellyfish for two seconds and then looked away. The serpent-tailed demigod moved on.

Klein can often see a yellow sun that looks like a child's sketch, and sometimes it passes by a river that flows quietly but has no substance.

There is also a flat woman with her upper body exposed, a moon with a smiling face, a canoe with its head and tail tilted up, a ball of thread in a mess, and a serpentine staircase leading to seven rays of pure light...

In this extremely chaotic world, except for spiritual creatures, all kinds of information exist in the form of abstract symbols. Therefore, what you can get during divination can only be revelations, which need to be interpreted by yourself.

And those symbols may come alive and become insubstantial monsters.

This is the spiritual world that cannot be understood and viewed by human common sense.

Suddenly, through the thin and empty mist, he saw a floating castle in the lower left corner of a normal person's concept. It was completely black, with a tall spire, covered with vines, and had a very Gothic style.

At the top of the castle, stood a translucent woman. She was almost the same height as the castle. She was wearing a complicated, gorgeous, dark and gloomy black dress. She had no head, and there were neat cuts on her neck. Her drooping hands were holding Four bright-looking heads with blond hair and red eyes. If you look carefully, you will find that these heads are exactly the same.

When the snake-tailed demigod passed by with Klein, the four heads held by the woman blinked together.

Klein turned a blind eye, but suddenly heard the snake-tailed demigod say something he didn't understand, but he could faintly feel the faint fear on the demigod.

The True Creator returned to his office. As soon as He entered the door with his front feet, He flashed one meter away with his back feet. He stared at the person sitting on his sofa in surprise, frowned and asked:

"Where did you run back from?"

"According to my information, you should be voluntarily imprisoned somewhere in the Southern Continent now."

Edward, who had already sunk into the sofa, tilted his neck back and stared at the ceiling with his eyes closed, turned his head when he heard the words. He straightened his glasses and said hello familiarly:

"Long time no see, ally, I'm so glad to see you've grown another ten centimeters."

The tone of his voice was "Edward Vaughn", which was so different from the alien god who always spoke with sarcasm and impatience. Even the true creator had to "tsk" at the other person's performance. Then He answered the question of the true Creator with a smile:

"Relax, this is a projection, I'm still there, it's just - I'm going to be out of there soon."

"You still want to go to the abyss, right?"

The True Creator's eyes narrowed, and he was about to draw strength from his own body: "If you choose to become a dual-path True God, then I will also make corresponding stops."

But unexpectedly, Edward suddenly became energetic, and the personality of the alien god beneath his shell seemed to suddenly emerge again.

He suddenly sat up from the sofa and asked curiously: "Do you also want to be a dual-path true god? Who are you going to kill first? Or start with the Eternal Fierce Sun, the great ancient sun god is about to return like lightning?"

…The True Creator had nothing to say: “No.”

Edward fell back again, continuing to sink into the sofa and face the ceiling.

"Why not, dear ally." The demon said boredly, "Medici has come back. If you recalled him, you must have seen his appearance. You want the other two spiritual imprints to be completely integrated by Medici , you need to strengthen the direction of Medici in the Red Evil Spirit... In other words, you need to give him an army, you need to give him the battlefield and victory, so that these anchor points point to the 'Red Angel Medici' Me, not Sauron and Einhorn.”

"The God of War is under your command, but you don't dare to start a war. How can you help your War Angel return to the throne of God?"

It didn't feel good to have the devil see through his inner concerns and thoughts. The True Creator frowned and remained unmoved:

"Before his death, Medici had already completed the 'Red Priest' ritual of becoming a god countless times."

"I have many ways to restore the strong direction of the One and Red Angel instead of using this method."

The devil smiled: "But this is the simplest, isn't it? Medici will definitely be willing to choose this method. His bones have been in the dark tomb for two thousand years. If there is a chance to pick up the sword again, he will Will you laugh with joy?"

"and--"

Edward deliberately prolonged his tone, sat up, and said slowly in a low and gentle voice:

"Friend, you should have discovered it by now..."

"A war is about to begin. This does not depend on your will. All gods need war, and new gods will be born in the war."

The True Creator subconsciously thought of the "Black Emperor" who was about to be born in Loen, and the Einhorn family, the royal family of the Feysac Empire, who had long expressed their intention to go to war. But He was not persuaded by the devil, crossed his arms and replied:

"That's why Medici doesn't need to initiate the war himself. Someone and God will dedicate the stage of war to him."

His voice and tone suddenly became solemn and solemn, as if he was declaring some truth:

"In the name of the Creator and the Sun God, He will let the wheels of war roll over the earth and crush this unjust war!"

Edward then struck Him: "You are no longer a daydreamer now."

"I am choosing words and sentences for my future new version of the holy book." The true creator responded, "If you have nothing else to do here, then go back and continue your voluntary imprisonment, so as not to attract the attention of the night to me."

After hearing this, Edward reached out and groped around in his arms and found a palm-sized paper bag and an apple.

"Then there's something else."

"After that, leave quickly."

"Why are you so outspoken? It's lunch time now. Aren't the long years of our cooperation since the Fifth Epoch worth it for you to let me have lunch and bring you afternoon tea?"

"Don't use such words. I won't listen to what you say in your demonic state."

"Okay." Edward shrugged.

"The last product I picked up from the auditorium was well received in your Aurora Society. The red wine fish is easy to carry and tastes good. It can replenish spirituality and the mass production price is relatively affordable, so Frank developed another product."

"I came here mainly to bring him some goods."

Edward tore open the wrapping paper without saying anything, revealing a white dough cake with burnt marks on both sides. It was soft in the hand and looked very delicious.

"What is this?" the True Creator spoke vigilantly. He would no longer be fooled by the harmless appearance of Frank's products.

Edward handed the pancake to him: "It's actually quite delicious. It's just pancake with honey filling in the middle."

The True Creator took it dubiously, broke off a piece and put it in his mouth to chew. It was indeed soft and delicious. The honey was sweet but not greasy, making people want to take another bite. At the same time, He also noticed that this kind of bread also had the function of restoring spirituality.

"This product is so normal?" The real creator couldn't believe it, always feeling that there would be some unexpected details hidden in this dough.

The techniques of cultivators are really interesting... It's a pity that the Mother Earth Goddess is a giant and seems not to understand human beings' desire for food at all. Otherwise, the goddess who controls nature and food would be enough to become the main god in the myths of various countries in the old days, but He actually only occupies a small place like Fenebote, and his missionary power is not as good as that of the God of Steam and Machinery. Everyone obviously needs to eat... strange? Giants also eat, right? Is the Earth Mother Goddess a little too satisfied with the status quo?

Edward was distracted, holding the apple in his hand, and said to the true Creator:

"You try to put a little spirituality into it."

The True Creator immediately took the cake away and carefully input a little bit of spirituality. The cake suddenly cracked from the middle, and the honey inside bubbled up. He actually responded with a sentence following the spiritual feedback:

"Praise the Lord! Praise the great Lord!"

True Creator Tactical Retreat:……………………

True Creator: “Who ordered this?”

Edward: "Your two divine envoys jointly requested customized products, which were inspired by the 'five loaves and two fishes' in your holy book."

Edward: "They felt that the flesh-and-bone fish made by Frank was a sacrament that met the requirements of the Holy Scriptures, so it should also be paired with bread, so they applied. The Dark Saint thought this was good, so Frank's praise bread came ”

True Creator: “………………Can you speak well?”

"Relax, this cake has no intelligence, it will only give this kind of feedback to the spirituality." Edward gloated to comfort the former God, "The main thing is this special spiritual honey. If the honey is scraped off, there will naturally be no such feedback. ”

"In addition, the wheat used to make this cake is a specially improved variety by him. Because the yield of spiritual honey is low and expensive, he found a way to increase the wheat production by 40%, bringing the cost of the cake back to the level of ordinary people. As much as you can afford it.”

"how much is this?"

"For half a penny a piece, Frank is willing to sell improved wheat seeds." Edward said, "In addition, the cost of communion wafers with honey is only 3 pence."

The True Creator grabbed the cake and was silent for a while, then finally ate it all and reluctantly agreed:

“It tastes pretty good.”

Then he noticed the apple in Edward's hand and pointed his finger: "This is the roasted chicken flavored apple that that boy was researching? The finished product was produced very quickly. He was able to develop two new products in a row within half a month."

Edward smiled: "No, this is a failure. I thought it was interesting, so I asked him to sacrifice it."

The True Creator then looked at the apple twice more and felt that it was healthy in color and round in shape, and could not be seen as a failed experiment, so He asked curiously:

"Where did you fail? Did you make an ordinary apple?"

"Then it's of good quality. It's worthy of being made from the earth."

Edward smiled and sighed, and said:

"first."

"This is chicken."

The apple jumped in His hand and made a loud "chirp".

TBC

True Creator: My mother went crazy temporarily.

Apple: Chi Chi Chi! (jump) (scroll)

Edward: Well, apart from having to be fucked, it's actually quite cute. Do you want to touch it?
