Allen and his little bones [Western Fantasy]

The sky never falls in vain, this is a saying that Allen has been familiar with since he was still living in the last world.

And the world has always proved time and time again that these truths that have been obtained through countless times of ancestors' personal practice can still be applied even in a different world.

As early as the first time he visited Calby, he received a grand welcome from Val's family, went around the undead settlement and was welcomed by the undead elders in person, Allen had a premonition that something was not right.

He has always been a person who lacks the so-called "protagonist consciousness". He does not feel that he is talented in a certain aspect, nor does he feel that he is born with an extraordinary destiny and must make a difference in the future.

If he is really as talented as the college rumors say, then the energy potions he drank, the nights he stayed up, and the information he checked over the years would not be higher than each other.

If he is really born with an extraordinary destiny, then every courtesy and every respect he receives should be closely related to specific events. He should rely on events that actually happened to win them, and then step by step expand social interaction and improve Prestige, prestige--except for the favorability bonus brought about by innate attributes such as "Alpha".

The Val family gave him a high enough standard of courtesy, but acted as if they didn't ask for it. Not only did the undead elders personally meet him, but they also handed over the extraordinary abyss token.Even though the Abyss Token is more important than Val's weapon, according to the undead elders, it was given to Alan because of his dedication to the research of dark recovery agents, but this reason is only reasonable at first sight. If you think about it, you will find that it is also full of contradictions.

Since ancient times, business has always paid attention to clearing money and goods. Even if the abyss token was taken out as an equivalent exchange product for the dark recovery agent, but at that time, the dark recovery agent had not even made a bottle of finished product. Allen's formula Still adjusting and collecting information, he couldn't even provide a standard "trial pack", but the Abyss Token was solemnly presented to him and delivered to him.

This is a transaction that is not fair enough.

The purpose of the other party's visit is unclear, and the hospitality is hard to turn down. In addition, I am in the other party's base camp, so I can't say if I insist on refusing, will there be troubles because of "not knowing how to praise".

Allen accepted the gift with doubts and a sense of something wrong, planning to wait and see what happened, but until he reunited with Eli and returned to Karbi again, his questions seemed to be answered when he learned the content of the prophecy Yes, but the "hope" in the prophecy brought him more problems at the same time.

Now, hearing Jiulisa mention that "sacrifice always starts with the hero", he actually feels relieved that "it's finally here".

"What do you need me to do?" Allen heard himself asking, his voice was unexpectedly calm and steady, and he could almost add a more reliable "Mission must be accomplished" later.

Eli gripped his hand tightly.

Unlike the previous situation where he didn't even realize whose hand he was holding, now the blond young man is very aware of who he is holding, and he can't help but increase the strength of his hand, as if the person next to him will fly away as soon as he lets go.

However, there are some people and things in this world that cannot be kept in the palm of your hand just by holding them tightly.

Before telling Allen the responsibility that "Hope" needs to shoulder, Jiu Lisa told a not-so-long story.

"In the beginning, only humans existed on this continent." She started with this sentence, "The dark creatures are the product of human beings abusing the power of elements, and as a result, the alienated elements and their drivers change their form."

As for whether the original intention of abusing elements is to pursue more powerful power, or simply have the spirit of scientific research and want to explore the applicability limit of the power of elements on the human body, the reason is hard to say.

Just looking at the wide variety of dark creatures today, it may be because of the above reasons.

Alienated creatures will soon realize that they are different from the original human beings. They have undergone leapfrog changes from appearance to strength. No matter how difficult it is to integrate into the original group, their past companions often find it difficult to accept them who appear with new faces, so Naturally, the alienated people broke away from the original ethnic group one after another, and they gradually gathered together to open up new places of residence.

"When the first batch of 'alienated people' gradually separated from the human group and moved to locations farther away from human settlements, some people realized that alienation might not be a bad thing, and some people did increase their strength because of it. , and with a large number of alienation precedents, latecomers can collect information, try to explore the safest alienation method, and then use this new alienation method to benefit relatives and friends, and even make the power of their entire ethnic group soar .”

"The vast majority of these people have become 'second-generation aliens' and 'third-generation aliens', and many of them have indeed brought the whole family to change their form."

"Among the second and third generations, there are also your acquaintances."

"acquaintance".

Allen and Eli—including Hall—almost coincidentally repeated the word in their hearts.

Several figures jumped into their minds one after another. Although the sequence was slightly different, the objects that appeared in the end were similar.

The undead elders who pinned their hopes on Allen.

He had already confessed that it was the Vaal family who traded curses for power.

"Just like you have doubts about the importance and preferential treatment you have received, and you have been waiting for the day when you will pay in exchange. People abuse the power of elements and think they have opened up new ways to strengthen themselves. Of course, it will not be completely wrong. At no cost."

"Elemental gods only exist in legends and stories, and dark creatures are the products of human beings."

"But the law system of this world really exists."

The law system of the world, in other words, can also be called the consciousness of the world.

It stands above the entire continent, maintaining the stability of one side of the space, and will not be easily perceived by the objects it governs... unless it detects a crisis that can shake the entire space, and relying solely on its self-repairing ability, it has already Not enough to support the balance of elements that frame this world.

"Send a curse to lead the whole family to seek strength together, send a lifelong shackle to those who spy on the law, and target the alienated people to conduct experiments to eliminate alienation... These are all laws to balance the balance. and the means adopted.”

"But they either have little effect, or the effective period is too long to keep up with the speed of the balance, so the law changed the way to repair the balance, and it decided to ask for foreign aid."

Having said that, Jiulisa paused, and she changed her subject for no reason: "Now, are you willing to take a few steps forward and take a look at the things below?"

Hall, who had just gone to see it, interjected: "I just went to see it before, and the bottom looks like an ordinary cliff bottom, and I didn't find anything special."

"That's because you are the 'lifelong wish of the sacrificer'." Jiulisa answered calmly, "And according to the instructions, I need to lead 'Hope' and 'Son of the Rebel' to look down—they Most of the sights we can see are different from ours.”

Allen and Eli had no reason to hesitate at this moment. They looked at each other first, and then walked forward together.

When standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, what Hall called the "normal cliff bottom" did not appear.

In its place is a huge pattern of criss-crossing lines.

Those lines showed a light gray color like thick fog, and shimmered slightly in mid-air some distance from the top and bottom of the cliff. Silver gray thread.

Allen: "What is this?"

He noticed that the pattern is actually not completely composed of lines, and there are many nodes scattered on it, and he doesn't know if it is an illusion brought by the light. He feels that the colors of these lines and nodes are not completely uniform, and some places are too dark .

"It's the predecessor of the new star orbit map. You can call it the 'fate disk' now." Jiulisa replied, with a less obvious sneer in the woman's voice, "but I prefer to call it—mission progress bar."
