Wasteland Echoer

"Good skills, quite agile." Aaron couldn't help but praise.

"Now, can we start? Mr. Aaron?" Fansuo ignored Aaron's compliment and instead opened the lid of the piano. He raised his hands gracefully, as if he didn't feel the weight of the shackles at all, and began to adjust. syllable.

Aaron glanced at Fansuo slightly displeasedly, put away his smile, turned to look at Ina with a serious look, and ordered:

"Yina, you should know that the combination of 'Song of Confusion' and 'Voice of Confusion' will eliminate despair, so that the divine realm of 'Daughter of Tool Yuan' can be opened truly smoothly and without any casualties. Not much to say. Alright, let’s get started.”

"Of course, I am happy to sing." Ina showed a sweet smile that was extremely inconsistent with the people and environment around her. She slightly opened the lower part of her silk gauze and squatted down to exercise court etiquette to Aaron.

Immediately afterwards, she cleared her throat, vomited out a ball of dark viscous filth, crossed her hands on her chest, and began to sing:

"I wake up in the eternal night."

"I am pursuing the truth in the eternity of mystery."

"I am driven by destiny."

"I repeat destruction and rebirth."

"But the end will come."

"The world has lost hope."

"Everything turns to dust."

"The world is covered with ice and snow."

"Nine days of reincarnation, six days of spiritual veins, and three levels of confusion."

"They plunge the world into sleep."

"I escaped the cry of desire."

"I escaped the turning of the steam gears."

"I escaped the confusion of the Silent Place."

"The king chosen by destiny!"

"Please go to the center of the Yellow Sand Gobi."

"Please step into the hot and warm lake water."

"Please step into the temple illuminated by the silver-white moonlight."

"Please fill the arena of sin with crimson."

"Vita's Water will purify you."

"The Laputa Underground will accept you."

"When confusion breaks."

"The gods are gone."

"The warriors in silver robes will step onto the sea of ​​golden flowers."

"Search for the truth about the stars."

Ina's singing voice is very loud. Although it has the softness of a woman, it is not feminine. Instead, it reveals the sad cry of a middle-aged woman.

The content of the lyrics did not involve any complicated vocabulary, but the more Aaron and others listened, the more creepy they became. After all, this kind of lyrics perfectly corresponded to and echoed Fansuo's piano sound, and it did not produce any additional fluctuations in magic power or bring any extraordinary effects.

This was a situation Aaron was all too familiar with, and it must have been Ina who sang the right lyrics.

But the strange thing is that the lyrics of "The Lost Song" should have been composed in the middle and late period of Crusted, about the end of the Steam Age. If calculated using the Eastern calendar, it would be around the year 1000 of the Dragon Yuan Dynasty, which is about 500 years ago from today.

But the lyrical content is exactly a prophecy!

For a moment, he could not come up with any logical answer except that the "extraordinary man" who wrote the lyrics was a sophisticated [prophet].

Perhaps, in the era when the dragon clan's fireworks were short-lived, someone was lucky enough to be chosen by the Lord of the Night or the apostle of the Creator and given a hint about the future.

Just as Aaron was immersed in the aftertaste of the song and his thoughts running at high speed, he suddenly heard a strange melody.

Turning around to look, Fansuo's hands were exuding golden magic power.

They started out as messy, shining threads.

Immediately, they were intertwined and intertwined to form a beautiful sunflower.

The direction of the flowers is facing Ina, as if the girl who has a deep relationship with Crusted is the light!

Aaron was shocked, and suddenly he thought about whether to interrupt Fansuo forcefully.

But after all, he didn't feel any extraordinary, dark, or dirty energy. After thinking about it again and again, he chose to stay put and wait quietly for the situation to change.

However, the next second, the rapid and surging sound of the piano came from Fansuo's fingertips.

The interlacing melodies, shaking heads, thriving "golden sunflowers", and ripples spreading outward like ripples made the three people, including Aaron, widen their eyes.

Their mouths moved, and they stared ahead in shock and sluggishness. It was as if a lead block had been stuffed into their throats, making them unable to make any sound.

But immediately afterwards, Ina sang the second verse.

The melody of the two sections is different, generally the difference between slow and rapid.

It seems that the first paragraph is a confused girl calling, and the second paragraph is a promise from a man who has found the answer.

But the strange thing is that in addition to the golden brilliance, the few people present saw colorful and bizarre light pouring into the center at a very fast speed from the edge of their field of vision.

It started out as a distorted and slow pitch black, then evolved into an angry red, and then changed to soft blue and emerald green. Finally, as it rotated and attached to the pure white Ina, they turned into a metallic silvery white!

Shock! Shock! Shock!

The interweaving of colors actually brought a colorful psychedelic feeling to several people.

They initially felt like they were in a dark cave, anxiously looking for a light source to escape.

But then, they saw the beauty of "neither day nor night". Under the sunset, they felt that they were the ones praying to the gods, hoping to see the "invisible people" and "invisible things".

The good times did not last long, and their bodies were wrapped in the "scorching sun" in the flash. The warm, blazing, manic, and terrifying sunlight made them afraid, but their bodies seemed to be sealed by cement and could not move at all.

Fortunately, the world around them, belonging to the vast sea of ​​stars, instantly replaced the "sunshine". In front of them was a vast, endless space of eternal silence.

"The stars... are so beautiful..." Mi You murmured in a low voice. He tremblingly stretched out his white right hand, stained with some light blood, trying to touch the splendor in the darkness.

Suddenly, he seemed to feel that the feeling of weakness lingering in his body disappeared. His body seemed to be extremely light, and those shining stars exuding purple, red, yellow and white were waiting for his embrace.

It seems that this boundless universe is his home, the beautiful expectations in his dreams, and even...his future.

Until, the stars quickly dimmed, and the surrounding area was covered by a chaotic darkness.

But he still saw the Milky Way in his heart, which was what he saw in an expensive golden telescope given to him by a missionary from the Ptoya Empire when he was a child in Chekavsk.

The little seed was buried in his heart, and he never told anyone. Until now, the "confused song" evoked the deepest desire buried in his heart.

He seemed to be impatient, and his legs seemed to be able to move, but just as he reached out to touch the stars, a pair of silver handcuffs passed around his head from behind and cuffed him.

Suddenly, he felt that his body was suppressed by a thousand-ton force, as if the endless stars had turned into a mountain range, pressing down on his spiritual realm.

Reluctantly looking back, Miyou saw two silver-white silhouettes.

He blinked hard, and when the focus returned to the front of him, the two silhouettes turned into two knights more than three meters tall, wearing silver armor.

Their bodies reveal a strong and vigorous beauty. The style of their armor is similar to that of the Ptoia Empire in the middle and late second era. A two-meter long sword dotted with crimson gems.

Seeing this, Miyou felt a burst of electricity pass through his head, shaking his head.

After realizing that this was a dangerous hallucination caused by the "confused song", he struggled hard to escape from the shackles.

However, he failed. The two angry knights roared lowly, drew their swords, and penetrated his chest.

He felt unbearable pain. He held the middle of the sword with trembling hands, trying to push it away with his meager strength.

Suddenly, he felt that countless strange, mysterious, and extraordinary knowledge was poured into his brain. They were messy, had no clue, and could not be sorted out.

Until a whisper like an old god appeared in his ears.

They started out as men muttering to themselves, reciting unknown languages, and then turned into women's cries and struggles. Finally, the hum of machinery mixed with the whistle of a siren completely defeated his spirit.

He wanted to shout, he wanted to cry, but in the end, in the sudden darkness, he heard Aaron's familiar and anxious cry.

"Miyou! Wake up! Miyou!"

"I...did I have a dream?" Miyou opened her eyes and found herself lying on the edge of the altar, and asked doubtfully.

"No, this is the harmonious effect of the 'Confused Song' and the 'Confused Sound'. It will show the most fearful content in your heart in front of you, thereby trying to penetrate you. Ina and I will not be affected. , after all, we are the initiators." Fansuo smiled and explained to Miyou in a boyish voice:

"Because your current physical condition is very poor, you fainted. Of course, you don't have to tell us what you saw, after all, this is your privacy. But just now Aaron, and Oliver from the former Scottish Legion were all It’s so fantastic to tell what you saw!”

"Have you...have you also seen the psychedelic...horror scene?" Mi You asked, tilting his head and asking the two people who were still not satisfied with the hallucination, showing a weak look.

"Of course." Oliver said first:

"I saw myself standing on top of endless lava. Countless rocks turned into sharp blades, slicing my body, including my muscles and bones. Because I am a [Twin], one soul should control two people. Only by having a similar body and experiencing two completely different lives at the same time can I be promoted. But unfortunately, I have never had this opportunity, and now my 'blue-haired' body was destroyed due to an accident, so I feel like It feels like being cut apart."

"Then... what about Mr. Aaron?" Miyou asked curiously, supporting the ground with his hands, leaning against the railing, and tilted his head to look at Aaron.

"Me," Aaron hesitated for a while, looked ahead with unfocused eyes, sighed and said:

"I saw Kashayiva, but she turned into a Gorgon. She said that she was in the underworld to atone for her sins. In addition, I also saw the ancient deep sea god Di who I had only seen in portraits before. Pusser'. He still looks the same, fluttering on the sea with octopus-like tentacles, visible skeletal wings, and eagle-like claws. I don't want to see him a second time in my hallucination."

"However, Miyou, Oliver, Ina, and Fanso, I have been able to confirm that this singing ensemble will indeed make us fall into hallucinations. However, as long as the body is not very weak, we will not fall into a coma. At most, we will fall into a coma. Trapped in place. I now believe that this improved 'confused song' is enough to open the divine realm. So now, I want to read out the order given to us by His Highness Crown Prince Ivant."

Aaron said, turned back, walked a few steps, walked to the center of the altar, and took out an envelope sealed with a fire seal from his arms.

After opening it, he read aloud in a standard politician-like voice:

"Zine Empire, Order 57 of the 'Advent of Silence' campaign. 1. Order Aaron, Yato, Miyu and Oliver to lead the Empire's 'New Equipment-Silence 03' team to attack the area occupied by the Giant Church that is closer to the Lake of Silence." The camps and caves in the "Shazhong District", "Shahu District" and "Lakeside District". With the help of imperial artillery fire and aircraft air strikes, I hope you will execute the Pope of the Church of Giants and the three regular cardinals except 'Ning Yuan' as much as possible. Open the way to the Lake of Silence."

"2. Order Ina and Fansuo to stay in the 'Silent Heart of Steel'. After the Church of Hope's 'Silent Stars' castle and the Church of the Dark Night's 'Blood Bright' castle are captured, they will go with His Highness Ivante and Shamon. The camp near the 'Silent Ore Pit' has officially entered the core area of ​​Silent Highlands."
