The old pastor who witnessed the death of his grandfather more than ten years ago has passed away long ago.
His son even looks to be in his forties or fifties - as a priest who has mastered the method of sacrificing fire, his appearance shows that his real age must be higher than younger. Maybe he is in Yingjiao.
I stayed in the village for a long time.
But Mr. Pastor failed to bring much useful information to Aiwass.
Because it hasn't been too long since he accepted his father's position, he hasn't been exposed to many things yet. He may not know as much as Aivas does today.
The only information he could give was probably the village's tradition about burials.
"There is no cemetery in our village."
While distributing cakes to Aiwass and Lily, the priest replied softly: "All the corpses will be thrown into the swamp, and there will be no more unified worship.
"Because remembering and worshiping are both behaviors on the twilight path, and we are just a group of nameless people who have sold their souls - we are not expected during our lifetime, and we will not be remembered after our death. People without names will not be remembered either.
tombstone."
"Then why do those children have names?"
Aiwass asked a question that had puzzled him for a long time.
The priest just smiled: "We are all nameless souls trapped here, shadows forgotten by the sand clock... But they are different. They are all healthy children."
"...Why on earth did you sell your souls?"
Aiwass asked: "Why does Amber charge such a price?"
For ordinary phantoms, human souls may be a scarce source of goods. In order to obtain souls, demons can even sign contracts and be driven by people.
But to the Pillar God, that doesn't matter at all. After a person dies, his soul will flow to the nine different rivers. It is a resource that humans should take for granted like breathing air. No one would breathe that mediocre river.
What a price to pay for the strange air.
Unless the "air" itself has some special meaning.
——The strangest thing about Aiwass is, why did Amber agree to this kind of deal?
Judging from the power of dusk that has filled the village to this day, this transaction has not been completely concluded even now. Amber is still providing a steady stream of power, which is even enough to affect everyone here's sense of time.
But the pastor just shook his head.
He stretched out his finger and put it in front of his mouth. He didn't answer.
Or maybe he can't answer.
So Aiwass could only change the topic and asked insinuatingly: "What about Haina, do you know anything about her?"
Finally, Mr. Pastor said: "Among the batch of newborns in our village, Haina is the most special one. There is no one else."
Indeed, Aiwass thought.
In your village full of the power of dusk, with both her biological father and adoptive father being adaptable to the path of devotion, she was finally able to be half authoritative and half transcendent...
Neither dedication nor dusk.
"I thought she was going to be a priest, or a blacksmith."
Aiwass lowered his shoulders helplessly, picked up a piece of snack and put it into his mouth without hesitation, and replied incoherently: "But she doesn't seem to have the adaptability to devote herself to the road."
"Yes, because of this, Haina received authoritarian education when she was a child. This also comes from Jacob's suggestion - he told Haina's mother that little Haina has the adaptability to be authoritarian.
.
"It was also after that that Haina's mother began to deliberately cultivate Haina's authoritarian heart. It can be said that Mr. Jacobs is indispensable for her to become a supervisor."
The pastor sighed: "And now, Mr. Jacob's grandson has become her friend and was invited to come here... This is probably fate. Destiny is the blood of dusk, and everything in the future has been destined by amber.
Engraved in the amber tree. All the threads are connected."
"Authoritarian education..."
Aiwass was a little confused.
But he paused and suddenly remembered——
That was the content of their conversation when he and Haina met for the second time and were pushed to the Pelican Bar by Haina.
"-Yes, my family is poor. But my parents have told me since I was a child that I must be an upright person. Follow the law, be loyal to the queen, and be honest to my teachers. Although I have no money, I have never done anything.
A petty theft mistake."
"——I will not ask others to be the same as me, because not everyone agrees with authoritarianism. But I will restrain my own behavior as much as possible. It is not that I am forced by others, but that I am willing to do so.
"——Today, I am dedicated to obeying my commander and executing every order he gives within the rules; but if one day, I will be higher than him, then he will also obey me in the same way."
Haina's childish but confident voice sounded from Aiwass's heart.
He took a deep breath and gradually came to his senses.
"...Why didn't I realize it at the time?"
This is the most standard authoritarian education.
The adaptability of the extraordinary person's path is not fixed after birth, but will continue to change. Just like Yanis, Meg before, and Ligeia now.
Family education is the simplest way to change the adaptability of the path. Although it is not useful for everyone, and it cannot be too far away... For example, Isabel is really not suitable for the authoritarian path, but if you want to change through education,
The path of falling in love is still okay; similarly, Yulia is on the path of balance, but she is also suitable for wisdom and transcendence.
With proper guidance, it is often easy to lead children to the designated path when they are still young.
It is somewhat difficult to switch from the Dusk Road to the Authoritarian Road.
But it is possible to transcend the path.
Moreover, the Transcendent Path is an illegal path in Avalon. If Haina had a strong adaptability to the Transcendent Path when she was born, and her parents decided to let her leave Eagle Point Village from the very beginning, they would have no choice but to
Convert the adaptability of the transcendent path into the authoritarian path through various means...
That's why she received such a strict authoritarian education.
Together with this, Aiwass thought of the stories his grandfather Jacob told Haina when she was a child...
——The carnivores headed by the red giant bear and the golden lion rule the world. The herbivores, such as the white horse and the green deer, battle with wits and courage, and finally defeat the giant bear and become the new king. And the golden lion
After swallowing a black mole, the mole dug it out of his belly.
The story of "King on a White Horse" is a metaphor for Arthur's deeds of defeating the Supreme Heaven and becoming the Silver Crowned Dragon. The story itself is full of traces of "transcendence", and just recording it has a sense of rebellion.
Haina had heard many stories about Jacob, but she remembered this one very deeply.
This shows that Xiao Haina’s first path adaptability is to transcend the path!
So, Haina's biological father...does he also have the adaptability to transcend the path?
If that's the case, maybe Haina's impulse for the road was actually inherited from her father!
Maybe, his disappearance is closely related to Jacob or Noble Red...
What he and Haina have in common is that they can both leave Yingjiao Village for a long time.
If his departure is not an act of a "scumbag", but a pioneering act that only he can do...
Does that mean that only a strong enough "transcendence" power can break through the stagnation and seal of the dusk power in the blood and lead a normal life in the outside world?
Alwass immediately understood why he had never seen Haina in the original game.
——Because Haina will only stay as a trainee supervisor for half a year.
After she graduates, she will return to Eagle Point Village as she is now.
From then on, she will never return to the Glass Island - because she can never go back.
She will either awaken the adaptability of the Dusk Path, or awaken her transcendent nature. Either way, her temperament will change drastically and she will no longer like the work of the Supervisory Bureau.
So, are there any similar BOSS or forces in the game?
——It really does.
And this time it's not BOSS.
In version 2.
They were a group of demonized former supervisors who swept around with a large group of undead hounds, attacking mines, bridges and railways controlled by the Star Antimony people, robbing caravans, and assassinating those "new" people who had taken refuge with the Star Antimony people.
"Noble". Transform the people he kills into undead again.
Avalon, controlled by the Star Antimonians, lost control of the Griffin Brigade and the Eye of Avalon, which made it difficult for them to control local intelligence as accurately as Avalon does today. The Hyena Gang is hidden in the most desolate places, and
The people of Avalon helped hide their traces, so although they were attacked repeatedly, they could not be completely wiped out.
The leader of the Hyena Gang is a tall and erect beauty, "nameless".
She is high-spirited, and her speech and behavior are full of confidence, but she has a lot of scars on her body - not scars caused by lack of timely treatment after the battle. The scars, as a mark of the wound, are themselves a powerful symbol of the dusk.
"Nameless" has her hair tied into a high ponytail that reaches her waist, and has dim yellow pupils. Her clothes are in tatters, with two arms and one leg exposed, and her smile is bright and handsome. She is authoritative, transcendent, and has three twilight paths at the same time.
The power of the road is very popular among players and the people of Avalon.
They are considered half friendly units.
Because the Hyena Gang has "camp favorability" that can be earned, the Hyena set purchased in the camp store is the highest-end set commonly used by Demon and Necromancer players.
It was not until the founding of Camelot that Wuming served as the vanguard to attack the Shadow Sky Division, but died in a direct attack by the Shadow Sky Division. The Hyena Gang eventually fell apart, and the remaining NPCs who were still familiar became Camelot's
Police Guard.
...Looking back now, this should be Haina from another world line.
It’s not my fault that Aiwass didn’t recognize it—the name, hairstyle, eye color, temperament, and occupation are all different. Apart from the figure, there is nothing the same...how can I recognize him?
And Haina may have a low self-esteem because she has a good figure and is always stared at. She usually has her breasts covered to some extent. She is basically no different from the big sister who is generous, has a cool temperament, and is full of aggression.
Same--
Aiwass shook his head to dispel his random thoughts.
About her father... she has to tell Haina first.
With this thought in mind, he said goodbye to Mr. Pastor.
When Aiwass went out, he found that it was already dusk outside.
As soon as he went out, his expression suddenly changed——
——How about we go back first?
But at this moment, Aiwass suddenly stopped.
Because the pastor is responsible for receiving people from other villages, his house is near the head of the village, very close to the trail into the village.
But now, Aiwass heard the excited and rude shouts of a group of people from the end of the village.
He frowned slightly, took Lily half a step back and hid in the pastor's house.
Sure enough, it didn't take long.
Then a group of people wearing red robes rushed in——
Today is an 8,000-word update! (Put your chest out)
Sudden hard work, writing from the time I got up to now——
Let’s update as usual tomorrow (I’m so tired that I stick out my tongue)
