Under the leadership of Vivian, everyone walked in circles for a long time in a weird street in the Acropolis, and finally arrived at a strange space called the "Shadow Intermediate". In this space, the city appeared.
There is a strange state of being frozen in the past. The modern houses on both sides of the road have almost completely disappeared, replaced by stone buildings and strange sculptures from hundreds of thousands of years ago, and most of the stone buildings are styled in a kind of way.
The strange inclination tilted from both sides of the street to the middle, like a rocky beast waiting to pounce! Hao Ren saw a house at the end of this weird street that was twisted out of shape and was incompatible with the surrounding environment: This is
It was an old corner house that looked a bit old but still had a modern appearance. It had red bricks and a blue roof. It had two floors. The basement floor also had a large glass window and a facade with a signboard. It looked like some kind of store.
The "old friend" Vivian is looking for is standing in front of the shop waiting for everyone. Her name is Hesperius - a name that sounds a bit strange.
Hao Ren looked at the woman in black curiously. He was quite concerned about the "old friend" that a strange and lonely vampire like Vivian could make. Hesperus was thirty years old.
Up and down, wearing a conservative and gloomy black long dress, she looks mature and beautiful, but a strange gloomy temperament makes it difficult to focus on her face for too long. This woman with a strange temperament has almost
She has dark brown curly hair that reaches her waist, but there is a strange ribbon decorated with jewelry wrapped around her forehead. The ribbon is very beautiful, but it is hard to imagine that anyone would still wear this kind of ancient jewelry: it looks
It looks like it was taken out of a religious mural.
"You seem to have made a lot of new friends." Hesperius was also curiously looking at the strangers brought by Vivian, and the vigilance in his eyes flashed away. "Well... you were willing to make friends.
It’s strange enough, and I didn’t expect to have so many at once. Why, what happened in these years that made you change your gender?”
"It's nothing, I'm just living my life in a daze," Vivian waved her hands nonchalantly and walked towards the house, "I didn't come here to gossip with you today, I have serious business today."
Hao Ren followed Vivian into the glass door behind Hesperius and found that there were old-looking sundries piled everywhere inside. The entire first floor did indeed look like a shop, with the distance from the stairs to the corner of the wall
You can also see a long counter. On the counter and on the shelves behind it are old clocks, weird masks, faded wood carvings and other messy things. Vivian frowned and looked at the messy environment here.
The housewife's instinct burned in her chest: "You're such a mess...Why do you always end up in a pile of garbage every time I see you? What are you doing?"
"Now? Now I open an antique shop." Hesperius found a few chairs from the corner of the room for everyone to sit down, and he sat behind the counter. "You have to find something to do, otherwise your body will get sick."
It's rusty. Little girl over there, don't touch the things on the counter. That mask was worn by the Egyptian Pharaoh back then."
Lily quickly put back the scary and weird mask on her hand and stuck out her tongue at Hao Ren. Vivian pointed at Hesperus: "By the way, what name did you change now? What do I call you these days?
?”
Hesperius spread his hands: "The name I am using recently is Christine. I will probably use it for ten or twenty years."
"Kristen?" Vivian's eyebrows trembled, "Follower of Christ? Are you stupid enough to give yourself such a name? Is it worthy of your ancestors?"
"The name is just a code name. Who cares about how many years have passed since my ancestor died?" Hesperius waved his hand, "And I guess you will still call me by my real name in the end. That's what you are like. You have a bad memory.
I'm going to die."
Lily had been restlessly looking around at the furnishings in this weird antique shop. At this time, she didn't know what she thought of. Suddenly she pointed at Hesperus and exclaimed: "Ah, that's right! I told you your name sounds so familiar."
!Isn’t Hesperus the name of the twilight goddess in Greek mythology?!”
Hao Ren was stunned when he heard this, while Hesperus waved his hand indifferently: "It happened many years ago. Don't mention it again. Now I just go to the temple of Athena out of nostalgia and have to buy a ticket to enter. Thinking of this only makes me sad.
That’s all.”
Lily suddenly slid down from the chair: "Ah! Is it true?"
Hao Ren didn't know much about Greek mythology, but it was time to realize what was going on. He stared blankly at the ordinary-looking woman in black with a somewhat gloomy and negative temperament, and suddenly realized
I was facing a real living history, a character who truly came out of myths and legends. Immediately, waves of emotion surged out of my heart: To be fair, Vivian can be considered a living history, but this person who is at home all day long is just for herself.
The nanny vampire who cooks, cooks and cleans the house really doesn't give people any sense of history. Raven 12345 is also a real goddess, but when did that cheat who can even cook a bowl of noodles look like a goddess? The one in front of me, although not as old as Vivian
, not as powerful as the raven, but it does make Hao Ren feel a little excited about facing historical figures. If nothing else, look at how long his name is...
Hao Ren has always believed that big names are those with longer names. You are like Ximen Chuixue, you are like Einstein, you are like Aristotle, not to mention, even the most powerful person in his family is Yitzhaks?
Goodman, apart from Doudou, the least powerful one is Hao Ren, and the one with the lowest combat effectiveness is even a single word "go", which is enough to illustrate the problem of "the length of the name equals the combat effectiveness". Hao Ren even felt that he was initially dissatisfied with Raven 12345
Blind trust is most likely based on the other party's string of numbers...
Nangong Wuyue looked at Hesperius in disbelief: "I really didn't expect it...are you really the goddess of dusk in mythology? It's not like all the 'gods' of your generation were given to demon hunters..."
"There are very few who survived," Hesperius pointed at himself. "Those who have a quick brain, are lucky enough, and are not strong enough to be targeted by demon hunters. Although there are people who have the above three points at the same time.
Not many, but there are still a small number of people who survived, and then they became anonymous and scattered around the world. Now I don’t know how many people are still alive. Anyway, I am the only one here in Greece. By the way... why don’t you introduce yourselves?
What?"
Hao Ren then remembered that after entering the door, he was looking around curiously and listening to Vivian and Hesperius talking, so he forgot to introduce his name, but before he spoke, Vivian stood up first.
: "Let me do it - this is Hao Ren, the leader of our group, you can just think of him as a human wizard. This is Yzaks, from the demon clan... and the last one is Lily, Husband... Alas,
Werewolf."
Lily jumped up immediately: "Why did you sigh! You just sighed, right?!"
Hesperius looked at Hao Ren in surprise, and then at Vivian: "Leader? You actually formed a group with others? And you're also a follower? Did you finally suck the blood of a mental patient without being selective?"
"Don't interrupt, I'm happy for you to take care of it," Vivian waved her hand vigorously, "I'm here to ask you about the situation of the ruins - what's going on? Are you sure it's the passage leading to the 'Old Kingdom'?
"
"The little girl Hesiana led the people to find the ruins, but the Lucas family also had a hand in it. Now the two families are at odds with each other, but they have cooperated before, and the current situation is such that
Forced, it should be only a matter of time before the two families compromise with each other," Hesperius explained. "The entrance to the ruins is in the Parthenon. A space distortion point can lead to the interior of the ruins, but two saints are needed to open it.
The relics and the holy relics are currently in the hands of the Hesiana and Lucas families. If you want to take a look at the ruins... you will inevitably have to deal with these two families. As for the nature of the ruins... I don't know much about this, after all.
I haven't been in there yet, but according to the excited descriptions of Hesiana's boys, you can see the temple facilities that are still in operation, and the air is filled with the rich primitive power that only existed in the mythical age. It's really unbearable.
It reminds me of the prophecy about the day of return.”
Hao Ren became more and more convinced that there was a door to the Dream Plane in the ruins, and couldn't help but move closer: "How big are the ruins? Are there any structures like space cracks leading to some mysterious place inside?
Did you meet anyone else inside?"
"You seem to know a lot about the ruins?" Hesperius glanced at Hao Ren strangely, "But there seems to be none of what you mentioned. The specific size of the ruins is not clear, but no one has seen anything except the entrance.
The outer space door, let alone others, who can live there for ten thousand years? Can you eat rocks?"
Vivian's face looked a little weird: "Hesiana... actually wants to meet that troublemaker..."
"What, you have a grudge against that vampire named Hesiana?" Hao Ren asked strangely.
Vivian opened her mouth and was about to say something, when she suddenly heard the flapping sound of a swarm of bats coming from outside the antique store, and then a sharp and energetic voice came in: "Is that Mrs. Vivian?
?Is Lady Vivian really here!? I am Hesiana! I am coming to find you!"
