That NPC went crazy again

There are many high-tech buildings, and spaceships come and go.

The battle between Beiyuan and the Lord of Death? ushered in a brief pause.

Constantly jumping on the time axis, he has already straddled a planet for thousands of years.Although the consumption of these powers does not make Bei Yuan exhausted, it still takes a certain amount of time to recover.

And the lord of death?——This group of black mist condensed body with great power obviously doesn't have the IQ to match it.

It seems unable to understand why it has never been able to become one with the ocean, and now it seems to be trapped in the subtle sage time, floating motionless in the sky.It seems to be using? My own empty head, trying to think of an answer or something else.

They hover in mid-air.

At this time, the night is falling, countless sea train tracks are built on the sea under the starry sky, and the dazzling lights of the aircraft are shining on the large and small islands. It seems that this water-colored planet is a lively time tonight.

After all, the interstellar era is different from the backward ancient civilizations before. In order not to cause panic, Beiyuan used a layer of enchantment to block their existence.

People on the ground cannot discover the real scene in the sky—whether it is a pure white dazzling angel, or a distorted huge black shadow...

Just as Bei Yuan was sitting on a cloud, thinking whether the seal of the undead tribe was ready, he suddenly heard the sound of whistles coming from the sea.

"Luluda! Hurry up?! The train is about to leave, have you picked it yet!?" Sang He popped his head out of the crowd, and there were not a few people around who called his companions like him?

"Here we come!" Lu Luda cautiously guarded a bright lamp, relying on his thin body to slip through the gaps in the crowd.

"How can it take so long to pick a lamp?"

"Don't you? Do you understand? The Tao is the heart? Sincerity leads to spirit! This lamp of mine is definitely the most sincere!"

The corner of San He's mouth twitched, he didn't want to bother with this person who picked a lamp from east to west and wandered from day to night.

The two boarded at the last second when the door closed, and randomly found the nearest car seat to sit down.

Luluda glanced out the window of the long queue of trains outside, as well as more crowds of people waiting to get on the train, so he couldn't help but take a breath.

This Neptune’s Prayer Festival arranges a sea train for sightseeing and browsing for free. Looking at this posture now, I’m afraid that people from the entire planet are gathered on this endless train track.

Beiyuan above the sky shook his wings, and his silvery wings spread out in the wind.They? While recovering their strength, they couldn't help but glanced at the grand scene of cars coming and going below.

"...Is there some kind of large-scale event being held?" He rested his head on one hand and thought casually.

Over there, the trains of Luluda and Sanhe have started to move slowly, cruising around the entire vast sea area.

——Until there was a sound of fireworks exploding.

Lu Luda, who was dragging the San River to take pictures, paused, then the camera moved up, and instantly captured the hundreds of billions of fireworks blooming in the sky.

Thousands of fireworks rose from all directions in the sea area, blooming brilliant colors in the sky, like fallen stars dragging their final glory, falling vigorously from the sky, lighting up the eyes of countless people looking up.

I don't know who suddenly shouted, "It's a festival! The festival of the Prayer Festival has begun!"

In an instant, those tourists who were not paying attention to sightseeing were also attracted. All of a sudden, countless dark faces were pasted on the windows of the train, and they were swarming to look out.

I saw that huge performance stages suddenly rose up in this sea area.

Those stages appeared from islands in the sea and rose into the air several meters high, on which there were faintly visible figures passing by, and gorgeous colors fluttering on their skirts.

It seems to know that tourists will not be able to see clearly because of the inaccessible and long distance, Neptune specially prepared a holographic projection that magnifies the performance several times——

The holographic image was constructed in the air, and on the island closest to Luluda, a performer wearing an old priestly costume suddenly appeared in the enlarged holographic projection.

The scene of the stage was a torrential rain. In the man-made storm, the priest, surrounded by the rest of the priests, climbed onto a high platform made of mud, holding a rattle made of shells.

Ancient languages ​​are spoken among these populations.Even if the audience couldn't understand it, the solemn tone, strange rhythm, and solemn face... were enough for them to guess that it was a congratulatory speech similar to prayer.

"Is this offering sacrifices to the legendary god that has been handed down since ancient times?" Lu Luda hissed, thinking of the story he heard from the old turtle before, "Would this dress and attire be too...old?" A little bit?"

"Because what they reproduced was the earliest period of this planet, the ancient sacrificial ceremony." San He took out the terminal and showed the search results, "The sea train will stop briefly on every island with a stage, every A performance on an island symbolizes an era, and you will know when you look back."

So, sure enough, when the group of ancient priests raised their hands high, bowed against the wind in the heavy rain, and offered rich and plump food to the high platform, the stopped train blew loudly and slowly drove to the next island.

Sang He looked at the rainy night that was gradually going away, and combined with the information he found, he said slowly: "In the original legend, the coming of the gods was always accompanied by torrential rain, so devout believers at that time believed that rainy days were the closest to the gods. They believed it until the fire cults came into fashion."

Luluda: "The sacrifice of fire?"

At this time, the train was already approaching the next island quickly, so everyone saw the arrival of the priest of the next era.

Urgent and ups and downs of music? From far and near, they heard the sound of thunderous bells and drums.

On the new island, performing dancers lit a bonfire and danced among the splashing firelight.He painted an indistinguishable makeup, tightened every fingertip, tiptoed and swirled in the blooming flames.

When he jumped up, the red dress burst into layers of folds, like a rising sea of ​​fire, rolling up fiery waves.

Dozens of huge drums are on display, and he beats them with drumsticks in his hand, beating several big drums during each round.Its momentum is like a rainbow, like a thousand horses, like a thousand troops, like the thunder of the sky, galloping past vigorously.

When his white arms were thrown out from the sleeves, and a pair of iconic ear fins were exposed behind the long hair, people were surprised: "This is actually a shark!"

In fact, even after full adulthood, only one percent of mermaids will occasionally lose their legs due to some unavoidable circumstances-because walking on land makes them feel like stranded Fish, every minute is painful.

There is nothing better than dancing on the tip of a knife.

Someone looked at the calm-faced merman in the huge projection, but grinned in pain as if replacing him with his own body.

But more people are attracted by the merman's sacrificial dance - it is not a soft and beautiful dance, but a reckless moth like a flame, as if it is going to burn out with the flames around them. resolute.

They almost thought that the other party would be thrown into the scalding scarlet furnace in the next second amidst the vigorous drumbeat, turning into the fiercest cluster of fire.

When the last syllable of the dance music clanged down, everyone's hearts were shaken and they were raised violently.

Seeing the dancer suddenly raised his head, he raised his slender and fair neck like a sacrifice, and a pair of deep blue irises seemed to look through the void, looking at a place that no one? knew?

...That must be the sanctuary where the gods in their hearts lived.Has he, through the barriers of time, seen the untouchable god standing at the end of time?

Everyone's hearts were still pounding in the sonorous aftertaste of the music, and they couldn't calm down for a long time.

And the train has started again.

Sang He took a deep breath, touched his chest, and said to Lu Luda who was still looking back with his neck stretched: "The sacrifice of fire is the strongest light source that the ancients in the city-state era could find. They thought that fire and Loud drums? Can form the strongest stimulus and attract the eyes of the gods."

After that, more sacrificial ceremonies with different methods came oncoming——

Dances, musical instruments, eulogies, offerings, ceremonies... Those people poured wine, sang the melodious mermaid song, let the whales cruise around the sea, swam down from the sea cliff closest to the sky, and dived into the deepest sea to find the deepest Bright pearls.

They built temple buildings, painted altars, cast statues, and knocked on the closed doors of every temple every stormy night—from a thousand years ago, to a thousand years later, from the past to the present, like On a long and eternal pilgrimage.

Finally, the scene in the holographic projection is getting closer and closer to their current cognition, and Lruta realizes that this last stage represents "now".

"What kind of sacrifice is this?"

Sang He's eyes slowly moved to the end of the route, on the radiant pavilion, "...that is the sacrifice of light."

Beiyuan above the clouds was suddenly attracted by the light source that suddenly appeared on the ground below.

--lamp.

That is countless, hundreds of billions of bright lights.

They suddenly floated out of the island's pavilions and slowly rose to the sky.

In another building opposite to the pavilion, the attendants opened the cage door and released hundreds of white pigeons that had been prepared.

The pure white bird fluttered out of the cage, and then rushed towards the bright lights in a well-trained manner.They hold the lampshade lightly with their beaks, cooing and dragging the lamp to fly.

"Look at the sky!!" Countless people in the sea train exclaimed, and Lu Luda even forgot the camera he was still holding.

The bright lights chosen by those white doves were obviously different, and they dragged out a glittering silver powder, drawing a strange magic circle in the sky—"No? It's a magic circle, it's a divine pattern!"

San He put the terminal away, and hastily took out his own lantern, a bit incoherent, "That is Neptune's divine pattern designed according to the iconic chains, wings, and white dove family members of that legendary god from ancient times to the present. Here, replace the name of that god!"

He? Said? Let go first, "Let your lamp fly out. If you can pass through the god pattern smoothly, it means that your lamp will be conveyed to the gods!"

"Really!? Will God really see my lantern??!"

Lu Luda's rationality told him that this is probably the same as in those temples where believers throw money into the pool or incense burner.

However, at this moment, the surrounding atmosphere has already broken through to its peak?!

Everyone was silent? Screaming, hands trembling to release the bright light out of the window? Some people had to pull it back to readjust the position if they let go.

Although the formations in the sky have a large area, there are more bright lights, and most of them pass by the formations, and even if they are blown away by the wind, they cannot be touched.

"King." On the second?Second? stage, a head of the bodyguard of the Merman tribe handed over a silver lantern to a pair of slender white hands.

The owner of that hand took over the lamp, and it was the dancer who performed the fire sacrificial dance on the stage before.But now, he has removed the heavy makeup that concealed his face, changed out of the red dance clothes, revealing a faint blue fishtail, and sat quietly by a pool.

No one would know that the dancer who performed on the stage just now is the king of the mermaid race, the ruler of Neptune for thousands of years.

In the pool, an old sea turtle and several whales and dolphins are eagerly watching the lamp in the hand of the merman, "Lamer, Lamer!"

In the whole sea area, there are only these few existences who have been with him all the time, who can directly call the Shark King by his name, "Is this year the same as previous years?"

The merman with a faint blue fishtail smiled lightly, with dreamlike beauty, he said: "Come on."

He handed the lantern to his companions, the turtle stretched out its head, the whale and the dolphin came up and gave it a light tap - Lamer let go, and the lantern that they released together flew slowly through the skylight above the building Go out, into the sea of ​​lights.

The dolphin tilted its head and said softly: "I don't know if I can convey it this time."

Lamer raised his eyes, following the rising silver lamp, letting the light shine into his pupils.

He opened his lips lightly, "...it must be possible."

Above the sky, Bei Yuan suddenly let go of the hand supporting his chin, and his wings spread completely without knowing it.

Countless flickering lights rose to them from the sea below, completely lighting up the originally drowsy night sky around them.

At this moment, the stars are not as bright as they are.

In the faint silver pupils of the angel among the clouds, a continuous brilliance suddenly burned.He looked at the overwhelming bright lamps, as if he was watching a civilization with magnificent waves and gradually growing fire.

Suddenly a unique silver lamp rose in front of him, he raised his fingertips in a mysterious way, and the wind delivered the lamp to his hand, as if there was some kind of power in the dark.

At this time, the Lord of Death who had finished resting began to wriggle again.

And now it happened to be the time when Beiyuan estimated that the seal arrangement would be completed.

"I should go back to the Ten Thousand Clans with it." He thought in his heart.

Just as he was about to let go of the silver lamp in his hand, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a few lines of small characters written in delicate handwriting on the lampshade——

"Sincerely—"

"Even knowing that the chances of you seeing these words are slim, we write them down in the faintest hope."

The handwriting on it varies, and appears to be from at least three or five people.It might not even be "man," because some of the handwriting is so distorted that it's doubtful that it was written by a whale with the fin of "it".

Bei Yuan was stunned, paused, and stretched out his hand to gently unfold the letter paper pasted on the lampshade.

"I don't know? Do you still remember that you saved a few sea tribes thousands of years ago. It's a pity that we don't know your name until now—maybe, the name of a god should not be known by ordinary people Xiao Xiao, or, that is a different language from the usual world."

"You seem to have come to this planet several times. Although we searched for it several times later, except for the first time, the next few times were all witnessed by other creatures and told us."

"We would like to believe that the next few times will also be you. I don't know how you view time, but for us, it really has been a long, long time."

Bei Yuan slowly stood up from the clouds. Behind him was more and more sea of ​​lights filling the sky.

The letter continued to read: "If you visit this planet again—ah, let's put it this way? Come on, when you read this passage, you must already be somewhere in this planet!"

"We hope you can take a look at what it looks like today. As you can see, we have gradually gained the power to protect ourselves and built our own civilization over a long period of time."

"No? I wish I could fight side by side with you, but if it is possible, can we do something for you? You seem to have been fighting an enemy, I don't know? Is everything going well at this moment? Let What worries you? Has it been resolved?"

Bei Yuan's eyes slowly moved to the side, the Lord of Death who had started to come alive again, and then landed on the last paragraph of the letter.

His eyes swept over the line of words, and then, Bei Yuan suddenly used his mental power to contact the marked undead monarch, "Gain Moss, is the seal ready?"

The other end was silent for a long while, and then the man's deep, inaudible reply sounded in his mind, "Yes."

Beiyuan had an intuition that the other party seemed to be suppressing something, but he didn't delve into it, and said, "I'll take the Lord of Death back soon, and you all are ready to respond, and open the seal the moment it comes."

"Okay." The man paused, calming his disordered breathing, "Where are you going to land from?"

"The sky of the land where you are." Bei Yuan's eyes moved to the huge divine pattern below the clouds, "The land of the sky where I am."

While talking, the angel began to gradually remove the enchantment covering the figure, and at the same time locked the gate of the space-time vortex on the divine pattern formed by the sea of ​​lights, and slowly opened it.

And in his mind, didn't he? The last sentence he saw in the envelope emerged——

"We sincerely wish you all the best. If we can meet again, hope to hear from you then?:"

The angel's long eyelashes trembled slightly, overlooking the brightly lit and gorgeous world below against the wind.

The sky, the sea, the long wind, the starry sky, the prosperity of the three thousand... condense the most beautiful things in this world to form a picture scroll of perfection and spread out.

Mountains, rivers and seas, hundreds of billions of lights.

"—Although this ordinary planet was once a drop in the ocean, washing away the dust of many lifetimes, it turned out to have become so beautiful."
