The Remnant City - An Ideal Across the Sky Chapter 8 Handsome Cindy
"It's not that we can't wait for a day and a half, but I've already walked around the city and didn't see anything special. I might as well ask the guards or people in the church first to see if they know the approximate location of the terrifying monsters in the mountains. If
If I can run there in time and come back before night, I will consider going there." Sofia took someone there and went back to take a look at the church. No one was there at this time. After asking the people around, there was only one priest and only one priest.
In the evening.
However, she is not actually the only one who is directly affiliated with this church, but she is not the only trainee.
Compared with other places, the people here are much simpler. There is no intrigue and they only need to quietly believe. The simpler the power structure, the fewer resources are consumed and the stronger the execution power.
Afterwards, the three of them came to the city gate, and Alexander asked the guard at the city gate if there were any legendary monsters in the mountains.
But the guard didn't know if there were legends, or he didn't know the term very well, but there were some that looked scary.
I learned the location of the monster from the guard, and after a trip, I found out that it was just a low-level monster that I found troublesome in Lamesa.
While wandering around the mountains, there were not many monsters of this level. There were also mid-level monsters but even fewer, and none of the high-level monsters were seen.
It's hard to tell what level the priest is in terms of strength. Sophia feels that this Red Moon City is actually just a place where people are kept in captivity to harvest faith. But there is no need to feel it. In fact, the evidence is very complete. She estimates that there are many branches.
, now just wait for the priest to come back and see if he can ask for some information about the dungeon.
Based on what Sophia has learned, the races in the dungeon can indeed be used as a carrier of faith.
Deep in the dark caves, the core of the dark elves' culture is oppression and betrayal, and they enslave other races.
After all, the number of slaves is still a small number. Although the dark elves are afraid of their force, they will seek the right to increase their own force in order to betray those in power and become the ones in power.
The god that a few dark elves once believed in was cruel enough and vicious enough.
Regardless of the good dark elves who broke away from the group, most of the dark elves in those dungeons are evil.
If you want to subjugate them, you must either use strategy and punishment to become the source of the second power, or completely change them, and the latter is undoubtedly much more difficult than the former.
Therefore, although it is possible to build faith, dark elves are not a very suitable target. Those kind-hearted dark elves, their number is definitely less than a hundred, maybe less than half a hundred.
Then there is no way to know the distribution of their strength, but according to the guards, the leader is at least the highest level adventurer, and maybe a legend.
Of course, the guards have no idea about the number, distribution, or strength of these evil dark elves. They also don’t know anything about the glorious deeds of the leading dark elves. After all, killing each other is obviously not a deed... but there should be some.
Be close to legends or legendary leaders, and there should be no less than three. However, those kind dark elves will come to trade occasionally, about once a month.
According to the priest, it is impossible to blend in, because the dark elves are similar to the clan system, and women's rights are supremacy, so the three of them cannot become slaves. There is no establishment or identity mark, even if they pretend, they cannot pretend to be the characters of the dark elves.
, not showing that cruelty.
The dark elf who came to trade is of course kind, and the evil ones can be dealt with. Unless God descends, the people in this city can be wiped out by a few dark elf elites.
After some discussion, the three of them decided to wait a month for the good dark elves to come over.
While waiting, Alexander was going to research what local food was available and inquire about surrounding gossip.
But there is nothing, let alone special delicacies, they are just home-cooked meals, and there is a lack of various spices.
During this month, in addition to the daily tasks that need to be done, Sophia would check on Adora and Nina from time to time. By the way, when waiting for the pastor to come back in the evening, she would exchange the teachings and related information of their sect to give herself the next step.
You may want to use it as a reference to build your faith.
Of course, the daily things that need to be done cannot take up half an hour, and Adora does not need to watch all the time. She is still protected by her sister and other higher-level unclean creatures. In the evening, consulting Pastor Chiyue's teachings cannot take up too much of the other party's time.
There is still plenty of time to do things.
So she walked around the area around her. Anyway, she could teleport if she ran fast. Last time she just ran directly to the target location, but the search was the same. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people like this, low-level monsters are probably three-person eyes.
It's a sacred territory. Besides, the legendary monsters can't be that close to the gathering point of humans.
Don't you enter that strange place like before when you are in the city at night? Obviously that is Chi Yue's power, but there is no need for people to pay attention to the three of them all the time, and it is impossible to pay attention all the time...
"Then I will search the library. If you are looking for anything, I will help you find it." Alexander needed bow and arrow skills, but there was nothing to find. So Sophia began to search for content about gods and dark elves.
Details of the Underdark.
After a preliminary search, there was a book that caught Sofia's attention. It was a book written in Common Language, and this book should be in the villa's collection.
The entire book, including the title, has been encrypted, so the word order is inconsistent and the logic is confusing. However, after a brief study, I can reconstruct a book by pushing the letters back one position, but the book is still encrypted.
Passed.
The revealed content is still the encrypted content if it is pushed back two digits. Simply start over and try again several times until the fourth time, which is to push the number ten.
The title of the book "God and Man" was encrypted four times and became "Divinity and Humanity". To study this book, it was necessary to piece together the vocabulary from four encrypted versions, and it would take a long time just to disassemble the text.
How long did it take to write this book and encrypt it four times?
Let’s not think about this issue for a moment, but the first argument of this book is to explain the nature of divinity.
"Can people's prayers really be transmitted to gods? This is obviously possible. At least this kind of thing should happen occasionally among high-ranking priests. Of course, God's eyes will not always be fixed on a person. The gaze is human nature.
It can be inferred that divinity is mechanical and cold, like a complete spell model, which will only operate according to the wishes of the time when the design was concocted."
"Then it can be predicted that when gods listen to prayers, most of the time it is the divinity at work, and only some specific things will be filtered out to reach the human part."
"Similarly, the existence of divinity can also change the gods' perception of time. At least humans are not like the long-lived species of elves. The perception of time starts from the extreme age of humans or even the current age. In other words, divinity can prevent
Human nature collapses, and at the same time divinity should be able to filter all kinds of spiritual influences." It will take a long time to continue researching this.
Sophia still felt that she needed to study the dark elves and the underdark first. This would definitely not take too long. Although there were very few books about the dark elves, there were many books about the underdark. There were thousands of them, most of which were
Novels written by humans who have reached the Underdark.
If you want to read it, three people have to go together, and Xilin is quite happy. Considering the need to verify the interconnected content of each book, one person can effectively read ten books a day. And just reading without thinking about it,
Fifteen books at most. Thirty books for three people, or nine hundred books a month.
Even if you read it this way, you can't finish it. The book on divinity and humanity may be even longer. The person who wrote it must be a genius at the same time and must devote a lot of time. Maybe its author has been thinking in the star world for hundreds of years? Maybe it
The author of was very close to a god, and perhaps became a god after that.
The encrypted book was not in a hurry, and Sofia would slowly decrypt it when she had time. It took twenty-five days, and the three of them read more than 500 books in total. This was considering that at least no one else except Sofia would read the book all the time.
Although Underdark books, most of which are autobiographies and novels, all tell exaggerated accounts of journeys involving the Underdark, there are many commonalities that can be used as a reference.
The main hostile creatures that exist in the Underdark have been mentioned before, and the only ones that are relatively friendly are the underground gnomes. At the same time, there are also several books that record the stories of black dragons in the Underdark, which coincides with Sophia's previous encounters.
Of course, the Underdark generally refers to the huge and winding connected caves underground, and they cannot be the same place. At the same time, there are also several books that record a legendary dark elf warrior with a kind and fighting spirit, Tevar Beatrice.
.
This dark elf met several humans and dwarves, and embarked on an amazing adventure with them. Of course, those books were not written by Tvar's fellow travelers, but by the slaves or adventurers they rescued.
But now, those humans have long since died, maybe those dwarves are still alive. The long years have deprived the friends of the dark elves of their remaining lives, and finally this legend fell silent in history.
At the same time, those books also contain some useful information, such as detailed records of the habits of some albino beasts in the dark areas and the magical uses or dangers of various plants, as well as some exploration of the geographical structure of caves. Like most novels, it is quite interesting.
.
On the twenty-sixth day, Alexander, who had prepared breakfast, was eating and reading at the city gate. At this time, a man wearing a brown hole-in-the-wall trench coat, white jeans, and a dark gray hood arrived at the city gate.
He took off his hood, revealing skin that was more of a dark purple than black and pointed ears.
