Chapter 60 The Autumn Equinox
"I have been to the Bailu District Government hundreds of times, and I have also sat in the coffee shop many times. I never expected that there would be such a strong hand hidden in the city. But can you explain why you are so concerned about my family history? Martial arts, also understand so deeply."

"Lion Claw" Carter Liu Quilterra is a little troubled. His current situation is much worse than it was ten minutes ago.

Gloves and boots are in a dull post-explosion state, a large piece of messy lion hair has been cut off abruptly, and the scalp can be seen. If you don’t wear a hat in the future, you’d better shave your head.

There are more wounds on the body, more than a dozen large and small, different from the previous ones on the flesh, this time, it is obviously a mild or severe injury that hurts both inside and outside.

"Why are you so unlucky today? I always meet such loach opponents. It's two different things to fight and be beaten. They are all like mosquitoes. They can't beat them alive or dead. Who wants to fight this kind of fight?"

Sufficient combat experience allowed Liu Kat to distinguish the difference between each other.

Zheng Li of the Perception Department irrationally made various squatting advances, completely illogical, and it was clearly cheating. Liu Kat wondered if it was the prophecy ability that the theory did not exist.

"There must be something wrong with that kid's ability. This is not a superpower that humans can master."

But the old gentleman in front of him seems to know himself too well. He obviously comes from the family martial arts in the Western Continent, which is quite different from the mainstream martial arts. Could it be that he has fought against someone from his ancestors?

Liu Kat vaguely had a guess, but for him to speak up, it was undoubtedly a sign of weakness and a declaration of a strike.

What else to fight if you can't fight, but the result of all-out bombardment is only air.

The opponent is either phony, or using tricks, taking advantage of the situation, waiting to hit him hard, and it feels super frustrating to not have a hit in a fight.

The hard power old man is superior, and the combat experience is also superior. The opponent seems to be a complete mythical creature "ghost" type, with all kinds of resistance. Use it, and you can take a gamble.

Can't fight now, and the other party has no killing intent, it seems that they are really just here to negotiate?

"What the hell, are you sure that my ancestors cheated me and missed our family martial arts, or are there my ancestors among your ghost companions?"

Liu Kat had only heard that the water in the ghost world was very deep, but he really didn't expect that this one would come out and he would not be able to beat it!This is obviously a bit unbelievable.

"No. It's an unspoken rule of this city that the living don't go deep into the world of the dead, and the dead don't get entangled in the realm of the living. I don't have the bad habit of inquiring about other people's family's martial arts, but my name in life was Maer Liu Kui Altera. Title 'Autumnal Equinox'."

ha?Liu Quilterra?Well, it wasn't the ancestor who tricked him, it was simply that the opposite was the ancestor himself.

But this title, right?

Can regional names and solar terms be used as personal titles?Your face is a bit big.

".I haven't heard of you. You used to be the governor of the autumn division? Or my ancestor? But whether it's the photos of my family predecessors or the photos of the 54 former guards, you don't exist."

"I am the first autumnal equinox, an unlucky person who has been forgotten by history, a transparent person in the gap between life and death."

The ghost old man took off his top hat, bowed slightly,

The first equinox?Someone who didn't exist in history?Instantly, Lew Carter meant what that meant.

He does not doubt the authenticity of this sentence. Ghosts are purely spiritual structures. Soul consciousness is already highly resistant to theocratic corrections. In addition, ghosts also have the general characteristic of "time is invalid". They are very few in the first place. Can escape the existence of causal correction phenomenon.

The correction phenomenon is mostly caused by the ability to go back in time. In the era when the timeline of Shiqian City was chaotic, many historians would ask ghosts about ancient history when they were in a hurry.

"Are you the 24 guards who participated in the Whale War? Your relationship with the Twelve Sword Lords? Or Zeus? Are you related?"

Before Zheng Li left, he was beaten into the wall by Liu Kater, and his clothes were largely damaged.

When fleeing, Liu Kat also saw the exposed back, which made him gasp at that time.

Just relying on the exposed things, the three or four overly obvious zodiac seals, Liu Kat, who has experienced many battles, has a complete guess, and now he only needs to confirm it. This kind of thing must be reported to the market. The government, even he, knows the seriousness of the matter.

It's rare for him to use honorifics. After all, the other party seems to be not only an ancestor, but also the origin of the family's honor.

"I used to be his knight's entourage, and I followed him back from the Western Continent. This is also the origin of our family. The oath of allegiance still exists today. Although that Your Excellency has always insisted that he is not the person in the past, how do I see it in my eyes? The ancient oath is also a matter for your descendants, and the dead will not interfere."

The old man was quite open-minded, but when Liu Kater thought that he might have to call Zheng Li a lord, he got goosebumps all over his body.

"I will tell my family when I go back, but don't expect us to admit it. It's an old thing that has been going on for hundreds of years. At most, I can pay a little money. But as the current guard, I can explain that the ancients hundreds of years ago, Why did it appear now?"

Old Mal looked up at the sky. The stagnant pointer undoubtedly indicated that the plan had entered the next stage. He nodded slowly.

"Of course, this is also my task. It is the main reason why he invited me here. Please be sure to convey it to the city government. This starts with a man named Zeus."

There is a man whose original name is unknown, who may have been abandoned by him, but Zeus is a fitting name given his later achievements.

At that time, there was a whale disaster in the middle of the Eastern Continent.

The highest god, the time whale, came from nowhere. From the moment it came, it was the most terrifying natural disaster.

"You probably can't understand what is so scary about a time whale in a cage. When he suddenly appears above your town, and then swallows the entire town with its huge mouth, and even tens of thousands of residents, that kind of The taste of horror and despair."

"And the scariest thing is that the residents of neighboring towns will forget their neighbors. Even the lucky ones who escaped from this town will often forget most of their past. After living in a daze and instinct for a period of time, they will Because of the countless gaps in memory, I have completely fallen into madness.”

Old people tend to fall into memories easily, and noticing that the "young" Liu Kater still looked indifferent, he shook his head with a smile.

"You think I'm the time whale? I'm talking about the time whale family, at least tens of thousands of hungry beasts hunting around, they are helping their main body hunt. On the craziest days, hundreds of towns disappear every day On the map, tens of millions of people are suddenly never born, that is, some people in a big city suddenly have a son without a wife, and the entire human society is messed up."

Imagining that situation, Liu Kater gasped.

He knew that the Whale Clan was originally the size of a whale, but this was too much. If it was true, it would be much more terrifying than the Atel people.

"Don't you care about the big city?"

"No matter, they are all dead. At first, some people were happy because the theocracy of time fell to a low-wisdom god. Later, no one said that. During the entire whale disaster, four to five super cities were destroyed, and ordinary cities seven To twenty, the death toll will start at around [-] million. If losses can be calculated, they will be no worse than the Atel people."

Liu Kat didn't ask why the quantity is only a rough idea, and it can only be a rough idea if it has something to do with the God of Time, it's all muddled.

He shook his head, a little unbelievable. Such a loss is too terrible, surpassing several world wars.

"This is the racial world war. Don't underestimate other top gods just because of that stupid sun god. This is a real top god. Unrestricted reckless actions will cause losses. The most terrible thing is that it seems to be unconscious Realizing that it was attacking other ethnic groups, it just instinctively continued to hunt for food. The Atel people lost at least two small worlds, not less than us, and the number of people who were directly exterminated by them as small shrimps was countless. "

Shi Whale is a god and also a creature. He needs to eat, and his huge body needs a lot of nutrition. It is normal to go from place to place to eat there.

The most unlucky thing for human beings is that it seems to regard the central part of the Eastern Continent (the current location of Shiqian City) as its lair, and it will return after a break of time, and start to act again when it is hungry.

escape?It is possible to escape for a while, but when there is not enough "food" around, he will migrate to track, how can human beings run past the time whale with the power of time and space.

At that time, encountering the Time Whale and the Time Whale Clan became an irresistible natural disaster, and whoever encountered it was unlucky.

Humans have organized countless crusade teams. In the end, the whales became a means of eliminating dissidents during the crusade.

"how do we"

The current records are indeed lacking in this regard, and many people even underestimate the time whale.

"That's because the time whale was also eaten, and most of its historical track was also erased. Hehe, just kidding, don't take it seriously."

Seeing Liu Kat's eyes widen, the old man made a naughty joke.

"Oh, the old man likes to drag the topic away. When most people are getting used to whale disasters, that man has a different idea. He thinks that there is no absolute invincibility in this world. We can use methods to deal with other gods Weaken him, target him, get rid of him. Well, Zeus."

The place of birth of Zeus is unknown, but it is undoubtedly an oriental appearance. At that time, some people suspected that he was a survivor of the whale disaster, and that was why he was so obsessed with the whale, and he was so crazy, coughing, thinking and surprised.

"If one time division is not enough, we can use five, six, or ten. As long as the surrounding sky, time and space are fixed at the same time, and he is separated from other time whales, he is not invincible! We can use Mythical creatures go pile him up!"

At that time, many people regarded it as a joke, until he returned from the Western Continent and brought back the highest myth there - Zeus.

The supreme god of ancient Greece, a mythical creature at the level of a god king, was regarded as an existence that was impossible to obtain.

But Zeus did it in just 120 years, so he is also regarded as one of the strongest existences of that era.

"Wait, 120 years? How long has the whale disaster been going on?"

"Between 250 and 300 years."

".Uh, I can understand the amount of damage. Did it eat it all?"

The story goes back to Zeus. From the very beginning, the mythical creature Zeus was regarded as the most likely threat to the existence of the time whale, and "Zeus" himself was a fanatical propagandist of this statement.

reason?The most famous achievement of Zeus in mythology is to kill his father, Cronus, the god of time, and seize the position of the king of the sky and the gods. He is a complete power grabber and (highest) god killer .

And Zeus is also the god of the sky, with the twelve constellations as the cornerstone, but the twelve constellations are divided into one year, with the dual attributes of dividing time and dividing the sky, he is simply the natural enemy of time whales.

Among the top myths, Zeus is also the only one who has killed the god of time.

Just as the oriental people think of shooting the sun when they mention Hou Yi, each of the quasi-mythical Hou Yi has a special attack on the sun god, and many of the quasi-Zeus also have a special attack on the time god and the highest god, but they are also almost non-existent. Opportunity to use.

But to use it on the battlefield of the Time Whale, quasi-mythology is not enough, and the people of the Eastern Continent cannot persuade the quasi-Zeus of the Western Continent to come and die. Such targeted mythical creatures are always just a theory.

Until "Zeus" really became Zeus, he built himself into a special weapon for timing whales, and returned to the Eastern Continent with twelve top mythological spirits and other followers, calling for the once-in-a-lifetime warlords again. Slaughter opportunity.

Many people who have a deep hatred with Shi Jing, or those who suspect that they have a deep hatred with Shi Jing, responded to his call. They cultivated targeted soldiers and talents, and sharpened their blades on selected battlefields. The final battle will start ten years later.

"Then, he succeeded. Shi Whale became history, and Shi Qian City was built. In the blink of an eye, it has been 372 years in the New Calendar. Time flies. By the way, he was the one who named the city. It is said that it came from a an ancient hero."

"Damn, when I read Water Margin. This guy is really funny. You won't talk about it, why does he appear here now, and what does Zheng Li have to do with him?"

"Oh, that's not what I should say. You can ask him himself."

As if he came here just to popularize the history of science, tell about the achievements of Zeus himself, and look at the sky, the old ghost smiled and shook his head, and it became translucent.

"The last question, since you obey his orders so much, why doesn't he want you to intercept me?"

Old Mal, who reappeared, smiled even more happily. His offspring seemed to be much smarter than he looked.

"I came here for the same reason as you said these things. In fact, it is very simple. Whether it is an ancient hero or a modern hunter, he is a human being living in this society. Even at all costs, can he really betray the city and human beings? ? The four spirits can easily deprive him of everything."

"A bargaining chip for negotiation?! Bastard, this kid is going to step on me to take the position. He is proving that he has the potential to become a myth?!"

"No, he has succeeded in ascending to the position. At least he has proved his value and potential. No matter how much he does next, as long as it does not cause a devastating loss, even if it causes a loss, the value is below his bargaining chip. We can talk."

When the ghost disappeared into the shadows, Liu Kat didn't know how to vent his grievances. He was actually tricked by a kid who was less than a fraction of his age? !
And Mr. Phantom, looking at the hour hand that started to shine again with psychic brilliance, also fell into memory.

At that time, I was still very young, but that man was already in his prime.

"Answer? Everything, just for an answer?"

"Well, I need an answer, an answer to how to end all nightmares. I know, I know, no one can give this answer. Time is the only criterion for testing truth. No, I'm here to find time. Heh, give I have standards and methods, and I will answer them myself."
