"Kayon said that someone would take back this mask, but just looking at Kayon's expression, he didn't seem to know it was you?"
"Yes, he doesn't know."
After hesitating for a moment, Soshyan said softly:
"Thor, Sevatar, Kayon, Randall, and even Talos, were you the ones who arranged for me to be here?"
The confused man shook his head.
"no."
Soshyan stared at the other party's mask. The other party did not make any excuse, but the denial was still very powerful.
"Then what is your purpose of disguising yourself as Brother Said? Which side do you represent?"
"Just to observe."
"observe?"
"Observe whether there are any errors in the whole process. Even if I am not there, there will be another person taking my role. So how could I miss such a convenient observation position? And I do not represent any party, I only represent myself."
"You yourself, then you should have a purpose."
"The purpose... maybe you can tell me."
"What?"
"An answer."
"yes--"
"You must have heard such a story. A hero defeated a monster, saved the kingdom, and then returned by boat. To commemorate this feat, after the death of the hero, people worked tirelessly to maintain him at the port for thousands of years.
The ship, and then used his ship to complete his voyage every year, but this also caused the loss of the ship. As long as one part of the ship was damaged, people would use the same material to make an identical one to replace it.
When we came down, at the end, people found that not a single piece of the ship was the original part."
"Some people believe that for thousands of years, the ship has been this one. And the modifications to it have been gradual. At any point in time, it is still the legendary ship, even if the ships in the past are different from
The current ships no longer have the same parts at all, but they have a symbolic identity, that is, they are unique and the same."
"However, other people believe that the hero has never been on the current ship, and it is precisely his stay on a certain ship that makes the current ship so valuable. Without him, this ship would not be possible.
The ship does not exist, so even though the two ships have a symbolic identity, they do not have a qualitative identity."
"Someone also put forward a third view. What if, every time an old part of the ship is replaced, someone collects them all and then reuses them to build the original ship? When the ship is completed
At that time, there is no doubt that there will be two physical ships, and both ships can be said to be the ships that the hero has ridden on, but everyone thinks that only one can be the real one, so which one is it?
?”
The confused man held the cup in both hands, sitting upright and looking at Soshiyang.
"What do you think?"
Soshyan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then replied:
"I believe that the hero is not dead yet. He is still driving a great ship on the great voyage. Even if what he is standing on is just a piece of wood, it is still the same ship!"
The confused man remained silent, and after filling their glasses again, he said softly:
"I can't say this is the answer, but your answer surprised me, Soshyan."
"Then it's my turn to ask questions? You still haven't answered me with any truth."
"I said, I can't give you the truth."
"But you led me to the path of the Renaissance Legion. It was you who told me the truth and history of me ten thousand years ago, but you said you couldn't tell me any truth?"
The confused man smiled and shook the cup in his hand.
"I just explained it to you."
Soshyan was stunned for a moment, his expression froze on his face.
"What?"
"Look, you forgot."
"I don't remember you explaining anything."
"Um?"
The confused person suddenly made a confused sound, which made Soshyan a little confused.
"I explained it again, do you have any impression?"
Soshyan stayed for a moment, and then answered in an uncertain tone:
"Have it?"
"You forgot again."
Soshiyang lowered his head and carefully recalled every word of the conversation between the two, but he just couldn't remember what the other party explained. After a while, he didn't react until he heard the other party's laughter, and suddenly
He raised his head and said angrily:
"You're kidding me!"
"Ha, that's the problem. You can't even fully confirm what happened a few seconds ago, so how can you say something that happened ten thousand years ago with certainty?"
When the other party said this, Soshyan seemed to have tasted something. Then he picked up the tea cup that the other party had filled again and drank the contents in one gulp.
"Then why did you stop me?"
"Entrusted by others."
"that's all?"
"That's it, but now I have changed my mind. Maybe things are not necessarily like that, but I still want to ask you one last question, Soshyan Alexei, have you really fallen in love with that Eldar?"
Soshyan looked at the other person, thought for a moment, and replied softly:
"I don't know either."
"Then why do you want to go to Comoros?"
"Because I want to go."
The confused man nodded slightly.
"I see, I understand... Let's end the tea party here."
As soon as the words fell, Soshyan felt the whole space shake violently, and then he returned to the bridge, but the other party was still standing twenty meters in front with his hands behind his back, with Khayon and Talos standing in front of him.
.
"Hey, Soshyan, are you okay? You seemed to have been stabbed just now."
Soshyan touched his chest, but found no wounds, and found that he had a small white porcelain cup in his hand at some point.
Seeing Talos' concerned eyes, Soshyan shook his head.
"I'm fine."
At this time, the confused person turned around, walked step by step towards the observation window, and then returned to the boat under the gaze of the three people.
"Thunderstone Church will always open its door to you, Soshiyang. If you have time, you and I can get together and have some tea again."
After leaving these words, the deceiver blew the bone flute, and in the rapidly converging golden light, the boat disappeared under the darkness.
"Thunderstone Church?"
Talos muttered the name, but couldn't figure it out, so he looked at Soshyan.
"what happened?"
Soshyan just shook his head and did not answer.
Talos didn't get an answer, so he could only turn to Khayon and ask.
"You seem to have seen it?"
After Khayon thought for a moment, he chose to answer Talos' question.
"That's not what I saw... It was on the journey to find the Soul of Vengeance. We needed to cross the Avinus Crack, but when passing through the area shrouded by the light of the Star Torch, we encountered
We found a similar creature, which claimed to be the incarnation of the Star Torch, but its power was obviously much weaker. It wanted to stop us, but was shot dead by Leo, but that was almost 10,000 years ago...
...At that time, I couldn't tell whether it was the messenger of the Emperor and the Star Torch, or just a nonsense ghost, or just a small creation of the power of chaos. But when I saw the person who called himself the Beguiler, I
If we encounter it again now, it will probably wipe us out in a snap. After tens of thousands of years of strengthening the power of the Star Torch, I am afraid it has already become incredibly powerful."
