[Comprehensive] On how I got lost

"Don't you want to express your surprise?"

Kuroro crossed his hands on the table, and Xinghe on the opposite side was unexpectedly calm. He looked unmoved, guessing that Xinghe had guessed that he had sent the little boy over to test him just now, but his greeting had already explained this matter.

He just wanted to "double check" that he didn't admit the wrong person.

At this time, Xinghe recalled the words that the puppet in the dream said before it disappeared, "The first time God speaks, you will meet old friends."

But it's no big deal, the words of the magic stick are always plausible.

“Some surprises”

Xinghe hesitated to speak, "I thought I would see you in the world's strictest prison, but not"

Kuroro, "So dignified and upright, appearing in front of your eyes."

"I hope you don't go to that prison for the same crime as me."

Xinghe: "That's a good joke, but there's still a possibility for me to go there, maybe to visit a prison or something, so as to prevent my old friends from being too lonely."

Kuroro "After watching it, I will rob the prison and let my old friends experience the long-lost sunshine and sea breeze."

Xinghe snapped his fingers lightly, and pointed his index finger towards the bright sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling glass, "The sea breeze and sunshine are everywhere here."

Kuroro "and then accompanied by an old friend who has not reunited for a long time."

The bright sunlight shines through the glass, creating halos on Xinghe's body, sacred, beautiful, and blurry.

"I am back."

Kurolo "Welcome."

"It's been eight years since you disappeared."

Xinghe: "We met at the age of seven until we parted ways, but we have only been together for six years. If you calculate it like this, it really has been a long time."

Kuroro "Two years of searching, two years of missing, two years of forgetting"

"Two years of grudges."

Xinghe said lightly, "Whenever Ku Luoluo thinks of his height of 1 meters as an adult, he recalls the miserable time when he was a child who was bibimbap with sand."

He tapped his heart, "Allow me to express my sympathy."

Kuroro "Presumably Xinghe has the same complicated mentality as me, so he can empathize with me."

Xinghe "I was very happy when I was with Kuroro on Meteor Street, and I experienced double the happiness in those eight years. To some extent, I can't tell whether it is because Kuroro is not there, um"

You know, Xinghe smiled at Kuroro.

Kuroro "It's better not to know the answer that would make me sad."

Xinghe inadvertently opened Art Life and the picture quality laid out below. The smooth and beautiful human body is lifelike, printed on it like a photo. In order to add sugar cubes to the coffee cup, Kuroro gently pushed the old book with the note on it. On one side, the words on the note clearly jumped into Xinghe's sight.

"Exquisite study of god culture and historical relics."

Xinghe looked at the note and read this sentence slowly.

Kurolo put down the coffee cup, "I'm currently studying the myths and legends of Polika."

"In addition, I was invited to participate in a cultural salon held by some historians."

Xinghe tapped the art magazine with his fingertips, "I've also learned to paint recently."

"Art is such an inspiring activity"

As if born from the crystallized flower of the human soul, reality is used as the bone, and imagination is used to describe the flesh, so as to create a unique beauty.

Kuroro recited this sentence silently in his heart. When he was bored, he flipped through the magazine of Art Life, and still had some impressions of this sentence.

Xinghe can use this magazine in a short period of time to put on a coat of literature and art lovers.

He was really good at pretending.

They lived and died together at the age when they just learned to tie their trouser belts. They are more familiar with each other than their left and right hands. What can't be seen?

Xinghe swept across his body slightly, and the thick and almost fainting dark aura was clearly revealed.

His eyes fluctuated for a moment, like floating light quickly skimming the water.

Kunna said in the basement that she saw two roads before she died, one heaven and the other hell, and now the two of them are on these two roads, not the divergence of fate, but the end of the two roads.

He is not qualified to enter the heaven of saints, but he will not fall into the same hell as Kuroro.

No, there is nothing after death.

Xinghe "It seems that I haven't introduced it to you. This is my hometown."

Kuroro "You found your loved ones"

Xinghe: "Well, but we haven't met. There is nothing to be stubborn about the past. However, if you are willing or if there is nothing special today, I am willing to be a host who is not very competent for a day."

Chrollo "So much trouble for you."

Xinghe got up, pushed the chair forward, motioned for Kuroro to follow, "Please."

The two stepped out of the cafe one after the other, and the customary door by the sea was blowing towards them. Although they had been in Polica for many days, Xinghe, who hadn't paid much attention to the local attractions, temporarily checked the famous attractions in Chapolika, "the first One, the nest of birds."

The name "Kurolo" appeared in the myths and legends of Polika. The immigrants who had just set foot on this land did not find enough food to survive the cold winter and hunger. They prayed to the gods, and the gods turned into birds and offered their flesh and blood. "

"They ate God."

Galaxy "So, pay homage to the great charity."

Kuroro "In the various discovered ancient ruins and civilizations, almost all human beings will offer sacrifices and beliefs to the gods who control nature, praying for a good harvest in the next hunting activity."

Xinghe "I have seen an interesting example. Some tribes believed that there must be an animal god who controls the reproduction of animals. They offered sacrifices to the animal god and prayed that the animal god would give them enough prey. This is the same as giving gifts to their mothers. What difference does it make to present a present and ask a mother to hand over her child."

Kuroro "Anthropocentrism, after all, all cultural activities from ancient times to the present are carried out by humans for a certain purpose. It would be interesting if there are non-anthropocentric arguments in some viewpoints, but the most interesting is Polly The deified bird in the legend of Kaka, and the man ate the god."

In the myth, it is not known where the flying bird transformed by the gods landed, but the location of the flying bird's nest is clearly marked on the map. After arriving there by car, a huge white bird's nest came into view. The round nest is made up of countless long strips of steel plates painted with white paint, and the "grass roots" stab the sky in a crooked and illogical manner.

A very realistic, messy bird's nest.

After entering the gate of the Bird's Nest, there is a floor plan with the orientation of each exhibition area.

Kuroro pointed here, "Myth and legend area."

"Hi"

As soon as Xinghe entered the gate of the myths and legends exhibition area, he saw Kunna, who had changed back to her original appearance, jogging here with a long skirt.

"Then it seems we haven't been in touch since we parted."

Yes.

Kunna blushed unnaturally, and she gestured, "The note, the note with my phone number on it, is it lost?"

probably.

Xinghe thought nonchalantly, he couldn't remember if Kunna handed him the note.

Kunna hurriedly took out a sticky note and a pen from her backpack, "I changed my number again, this is my new number."

She was lying, she didn't change it, she just wanted to give the number again.

After handing over the number, Kunna asked Kuroro, "This is"

"I"

"His primary school classmate."

Kuroro reached out to Kunna, "It's the first time we meet, please give me your advice."

Kunna jumped for joy in her heart, feeling that she was one step closer to Xinghe's life range, but when her fingertips touched the other's cold palm, the pierced pattern on her abdomen flashed with pain, as fast as lightning , caught off guard.

Kunna looked at Kuroro, the young man with black hair and black eyes was gentle and almost harmless, like the most popular student on the university campus, Kunna suppressed the weird touch, and after shaking hands with Xinghe Kuro Luo said a few words casually and left.

Kuroro glanced at Kunna's leaving back, "The feeling is very sharp."

Xinghe "She was tied to the test bench and almost carved into a work of art."

Kurolo "almost"

Xinghe said lightly, "Because I saved her."

He smiled at Kuroro, vaguely.

He saved people.

Kuroro weighed this sentence over and over in his heart, and then followed Xinghe's footsteps into the myths and legends exhibition area.

The mythical exhibition area of ​​Bird's Nest displays all the ancient relics in detail and richly. Except for the large and unportable ones, almost all the excavated ancient relics are here.

Kuroro saw with eyes covered with condensation that the exhibits here were more or less entwined with thoughts.

Each one is genuine, and each one can fetch a high price in the black market. This kind of treasure seems to be too dense against common sense.

Ancient myths have continued this unspeakable weirdness to this day.

Not far from the myth exhibition area is the trading area. In the Nest of Birds, an area where you can freely trade antiquities has been specially set up. Xinghe and Kuroro walked around here, and more or less found some fragments with thoughts.

After visiting the Bird's Nest, twilight invaded.

"Goodbye."

The two parted at the intersection and went their separate ways.

On the way, Xinghe felt in his pocket and saw a sticky note with Kunna's phone number written on it. He held and loosened the sticky note, and the sticky note was broken into pieces. With his open palm, the pieces were blown away by the wind.

He is going to leave this world after all.

At this time, a message came from the program hanging on the Internet, saying that someone was willing to share the myths and legends of Polika and other myths and legends that could predict the future, but with the request, Xinghe must share the same information.

"Who is he"

"Pariston."

The vice president of the Hunter Association, the three-star hunter, the most popular character, Paris Stone.

Just talking to him on the phone is blissful, like a perfect conversation partner, but as we all know, what a person wants to take from you must first give you something, also like deifying birds

Pariston said that he was recently studying a mythical or miraculous ability found in a ruin, so he collected a lot of information in this regard.

"One of the most distinctive features of Polika's mythology is non-anthropocentrism."

"The gods in the Polika myth did not teach the islanders how to hunt and plant, and there was no description of the production method. There were a few words in the original that could not be analyzed. It is vaguely judged that these words are a tool that contains ancient technology. , just like the Seagod's Fury doesn't understand the principle."

"They were raised on the island, manipulated tools that don't understand the principle, ate food from nowhere, and performed belief rituals that could not be repeated until the day the island was destroyed."

"The islanders came to this continent under the guidance of the ancient technology Poseidon's fury, and lived anew."

"The deification of flying birds is the last miracle in Polika's mythology. After people ate the gods, the myth became a legend, and mankind stepped into reality."

At this point, Pariston did not continue, "My research has ended here, and there are still many unresolved parts of the Polika myth. If you are willing to join and participate in this work, it would be great. "

Faced with Pariston's invitation, Xinghe agreed to join without much thought.

At the same time, Kuroro called Xia Ke and said that he was going to start official activities in Polika.

"The Poseidon's Rage has been obtained."

"Then loot the bird's nest to find other clues."

"The organizer of the cultural salon suddenly notified that the appointment and location were changed, and I now have to go to another city."

"The teacher who taught me painting knowledge said that I hope I can appreciate the scenery elsewhere to increase inspiration, so I won't have much time in the near future."

"Goodbye then."

"Goodbye."

This is Xinghe's second phone call before going to bed today.

"Polica, god, flesh and blood."

"Serlins, Prophecy, Mirror."

Even in his sleep, he was still thinking about Polica, when Xinghe opened his eyes and saw that he had returned to this place, he hated these words like a conditioned reflex.

The puppet is still reflected in another world.

"how"

"God's first prophecy has come true."

"Now God is going to make a second prophecy, and you will be separated. Every great god likes to do this, once predicting the prosperity of the empire, and once predicting the destruction of the empire."

The puppet snapped its fingers, "Sufficient shock, so as to tell the world the majesty of God, and I am no exception."

Xinghe shook his head, "It seems that your news is a bit old, we just said that we will not see each other in the short term."

The puppet denied, "You and I both understand what the original intention of separation is."

Palliston continued to transmit the news of the Polika myth. He said that the deification of birds and the feeding of flesh and blood to humans should refer to a parasitic method.

Galaxy "parasitic"

Pariston: "There are countless bacteria parasitic in the human body. You should be familiar with it. The flesh and blood of birds refer to a substance that parasitizes in the bodies of immigrants on the coast, but there is no clue what substance it is. Xinghe is very presumptuous. But let me ask, can you feel any abnormalities in your body?"

Xinghe "No."

Pariston "Ah, it seems that our Polyka mythology research project can only go so far, but this dilemma can only be temporary and cannot trap us forever. In the near future, in the wider world, there will be Uncover all the secrets."

Dark Continent.

Pariston clearly meant that he wanted to explore the Dark Continent.

Since the last hunter team, no one has mentioned this matter for decades, and V5, which controls the navigation exit of the Dark Continent, is also secretive, using strict conditions to drive everyone who wants to set foot on the New Continent.

"Polica, god, flesh and blood."

"Serlins, Prophecy, Mirror."

Xinghe is going to Meteor Street once.
