Volume 5 The Trial of the Twins Chapter 16 The Past of the Enlightened Clan
Xiao Ye's words made Fang Qiuling laugh dumbly.
The little rabbit is very cute and beautiful, and Fang Qiuling has always regarded her as a younger sister. In the same way, he also regarded Satsuki and Ono as his sisters.
What should I do if my sister confesses to herself, crying and shouting, "Marry me"? Of course, it's just a smile, as a little girl's whimsiness, just a joke.
"Brother Shulick, don't be dismissive." Ono put on a serious face, "The girls of the Mingshi clan attach great importance to this!" This is the tradition of the Mingshi clan! Girls can't just talk about 'marrying'. Even if it's a joke, it's not okay, it's not okay! ”
Ono's serious appearance made the corners of Fang Qiuling's mouth start to rise. He fully understands that the Mingshi clan has a tradition of the Mingshi clan. But no matter from which point of view, the idea of the rabbit is really very cute, so cute that people can't help but want to laugh.
"Brother Thulick, I'm serious about talking to you!" Ono raised his finger and gestured in front of him, "This is very serious!" What should I do if I can't marry this stupid little rabbit in the future! ”
"Yes, yes...... Such a joke really can't be made. ”
Fang Qiuling tried his best to control his facial expression, but the smile still crept up his cheeks little by little. This made Ono mumble unhappily.
"Brother Thuric, you're really a big villain!"
"What's wrong?"
"You seduce the little rabbit with such a valuable thing, and the little rabbit is so stupid that he likes to eat so much, he will take the bait at once. And say you're not a badass! Those potatoes, cabbage, beef, etc. are also very expensive, very expensive, okay! Give so much at once, what do you think, what will the little rabbit think. ”
- That's true, but I don't know!
"I just brought some souvenirs for her to make a tooth sacrifice, I didn't think about it so much......"
"Humph! That is, I, Tama-Ono, know that Brother Shulick has no bad intentions. Otherwise, huh! ”
Ono gestured with his small fists, looking like he was holding grievances for his sister. It's just that her fierce appearance is still mostly cute, which makes the corners of Fang Qiuling's mouth start to rise again. In order not to laugh out loud, Fang Qiuling decisively changed the topic.
"Oh, yes, Ono. They all love caviar, why don't you? ”
"Me? I like it too. Something delicious, how can you not like it? ”
"I mean, you're so bad at that protein addiction."
"Born with different physiques, it's similar to allergies. I went to check and I don't have Alz Drora protein addiction. Caviar is generally delicious for me. ”
"That'...... Do you not like caviar? ”
"Yes, too. Like what...... For example, Elder Li didn't like it very much. ”
"Oh......"
As he chatted, Ono suddenly clapped his hands as if he remembered something.
"Brother Xiulik, Sister Qin said you want to ask us for help? Want to take us to Elune? ”
"Well, that's right." Fang Qiuling nodded, sooner or later he had to tell the little rabbits, now it's not bad to ask Ono first, "I found an underground base from Elune, and it needs to be repaired." I need help from someone who understands architecture and infrastructure. I asked Dr. Qin, and Dr. Qin recommended you directly. ”
Ono's eyes widened slightly: "We? Brother Thuric, do you mean all of us? ”
"That's right."
"Thirty together?"
"Yes. The underground base was badly damaged and needed extensive repairs. Dr. Qin said that together you can cover most of the industrial chain and complete a self-sufficient small base independently. So I thought that inviting other people would also be pleased, and looking for you would be also looking for you. It's also good to find someone who is a little more familiar. ”
"Hmmm! Well! Ono's eyes lit up, "Brother Shulick, no problem, no problem!" We can for sure! ”
Fang Qiuling looked at Xiao Ye, who had suddenly become very energetic, a little strangely.
"Ono, let me ask."
"What's the matter, Brother Thurik."
"Why did you become so motivated all of a sudden?"
"Motivated? Of course, it's because I can go to Elune! ”
"Huh? Why? What's so good about Elune? Eating badly, sleeping poorly, and dangerously. It's not fun to play at home. ”
"Brother Thulik, you don't understand ......"
Regarding Fang Qiuling's "being in the blessing and not knowing the blessing", Ono expressed deep contempt. And in her slow talk, Fang Qiuling's cognition of the "inner world" is a little more.
The present world is a low-magic world, a world where the power of the "Extreme Source" is thin, located at the bottom of the tides of the Source Sea. However, thousands of years ago, that is, the so-called mythological age of this land of China, the present world was a world of immortals, demons, monsters, and bizarre high demons.
As described in various ancient books, at that time there were huge Kunpeng soaring in the sky, there were dragons passing through the water, Baxia inhabited by the lakeside, Bifang lived on the top of the mountain, Qi practitioners lived in the caves of the mountains, and nine-tailed foxes inhabited in the deep valleys with winding paths......
However, as time passed, the tide of the source sea receded, and the power of the "supreme source" that filled the heavens and the earth gradually dissipated. That is, the so-called era of the end of the law has come.
Those who have the conditions and strength have chosen to leave this world and go to other worlds. Those who have no conditions but have the strength occupy the famous rivers and mountains, and rely on the gradually depleted spiritual veins to survive. If you don't have the conditions or the strength, then ...... Then I'll have to wait for death!
In the age of mythology, the strength of a group was measured by the number of strong people, and the wealth of a group was measured by the size of the sect. If there are not enough strong people, then the only result is to become a fish on the board and be slaughtered. If there is no large enough sect, it will be extremely difficult to collect resources from all sides. And the Mingshi clan belonged to the kind that had no conditions and no strength in the mythical era.
The Mingshi clan has its own strong people, but there are not many of them, and they are not the top. The Mingshi clan has its own sect, but it is barely medium-sized.
If you don't have a top powerhouse and don't have an advantage in numbers, you won't be able to gather enough resources to build the "Ark of Doom" that will leave the world. In the same way, because of the lack of top powerhouses and sufficient numbers, they cannot occupy a place in the famous rivers and mountains, and they cannot rely on the gradually depleting spiritual veins to survive. The Mingshi are one of many groups of people who are waiting for death.
However, the Mingshi clan is also lucky. Because when they were desperate and their whole race was about to perish, they met a kind man who was willing to shelter them. This kind-hearted man is a sword immortal, and his most proud move is called "One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Laws". At the same time, this sword immortal also has another identity: the Adventist.
Under the protection of the Adventist Sword Immortal, the Mingshi clan was able to survive, and the bloodline was given a chance to continue. In order to thank this sword immortal, the Mingshi clan regarded themselves as the dependents of the sword immortal, and did their best to handle the chores around this sword immortal.
The Mingshi clan that originally followed the Sword Immortals had long since left. They left the world with the Sword Immortals to explore the mysteries of the universe, but their descendants remained in the world. Relying on the prestige and arrangement left by the sword immortals, the Mingshi clan left behind collected the power of the "Extreme Source" through the large-scale Spirit Gathering Array to maintain their own spiritual power needs, thus passing it down from generation to generation.
"Oh, the ancestors of your ancestors...... There was a Descender in that era, how many years ago? ”
"Five thousand to ten thousand years, probably. Brother Thulick, you should know that the time span of the Age of Mythology is very long, and it is difficult to determine the specific time. ”
"Well, I know that...... But what does that have to do with your desire to go to Elune? ”
"Of course it has a relationship, it has a big relationship!" The contempt in Ono's eyes seemed to be a little deeper, "It's not because of spiritual power. ”
"Spiritual power?"
Fang Qiuling knew that the "spiritual power" in Ono's mouth meant the power of the "Extreme Source". Although the spells she mastered were standard wizard level spells with Mana as the core, they still needed spiritual power to maintain their physical needs. Spiritual power and mana are both manifestations of the "supreme" power in reality, but the two are different in the form of application, and the essence is still the same.
"I don't have enough spiritual power."
"Not enough? Not enough in the Holy Land? ”
"Of course it's not enough, the spiritual power has never been enough. Moreover, the spiritual power of the Holy Land is also limited. ”
Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, there will be disputes, and there will be people who absolutely "eat less" and want more. The same is true of the "inner world".
The Mingshi clan was the original builder of the Holy Land, so they occupied the largest share of the spiritual power of the Holy Land. However, the human beings of the "inner world" believe that they are the masters of this world, so they naturally demand to occupy the majority of the spiritual power of the Holy Land. Other ethnic groups have also demanded a share of the spiritual power generated by the Holy Land for various reasons. There have always been contradictions about how to distribute the spiritual power of the Holy Land, and it is still quite acute, belonging to the irreconcilable kind.
How to deal with conflicts in the "inner world"? Of course, it's a comparison, whoever is powerful listens to whom, and whoever has a big fist listens to whom.
The issue of spiritual power distribution is a matter of life and death for a race. For the sake of the share of spiritual power, of course, the Mingshi clan could not back down, so the dispute arose. However, because of the care of the original Adventist Sword Immortal, as well as the protection of many subsequent Adventists, coupled with the identity of the original builder of the Holy Land, the people who competed for the share of spiritual power did not dare to oppress the Mingshi clan too much, and always let the Mingshi clan retain the spiritual power that could barely maintain the continuation of the race.
"Brother Thurik, you know. Spiritual power is important to us, just like air. Without Reiki, we would feel hungry. Not the hungry kind, but the mentally hungry. Now the spiritual power is getting less and less, although I haven't started to get hungry yet, but it should be soon......"
Speaking of this, Ono couldn't help but sigh.
“…… That's why the little rabbit likes the ingredients brought by the other world so much? ”
"Yes. The ingredients of the other world contain a little spiritual power in them, and eating them is very good for the body. So we all want to go to other worlds. Brother Thurik, Elune is a high demon world, right? ”
"Well, that's right."
"It's easy to collect spiritual power." Ono blinked his eyes, revealing a slightly longing expression, "Sleep at night, and wake up the next morning full of energy." I really want to give it a try! ”
Fang Qiuling silently sighed in his heart.
"No problem, it's definitely going to pass."
