Balogel and Melita looked at each other and saw the same confusion in each other's eyes. Gwen's words were clear, and every word was in the common language of the Roland Continent. But it was so difficult to understand when they were put together. Who would understand this?
Gwen obviously knew that the situation was complicated and difficult to communicate. He thought for a moment and looked to the side. After a short conversation, he looked back at the holographic projection. "Are you interested in talking to her? The situation is complicated, and it's not convenient for an outsider like me to pass the message. It's easier for you to communicate between dragons. "
"Talk to her?" Archduke Balogel froze for a moment. When he realized the real meaning of Gwen's proposal, his expression suddenly became interesting. The memory of millions of years spread out in his mind like layers of yellowed scrolls. The ancient fear, the long forbearance, the difficult planning, and the complex feelings of the god who had protected his race through countless disasters all came out in an instant and weighed heavily on his heart. The ancient Giant Dragon suddenly felt a little timid. Although he did not back down when he faced the angry god, at this moment … he was really scared.
He did not know if he was ready to face the god of the past again at this moment, especially when he had personally planned to harm the god. But he knew … this would be a very important moment in his life.
Perhaps it was also the most important moment for the Dragons who had been reborn from the fire and entered the new era.
"I … never thought that I would have to face such a thing in the new era. But there are many things in this world that we are not fully prepared for," Dragonblood Archduke said in a low voice. It seemed that he was responding to Gwen, but also seemed to be talking to himself. Finally, he looked up with a determined look in his eyes. "Let me … see her. Let me know if what you said is true or not."
Gwen nodded in the holographic projection. "Okay, I'll adjust the equipment to the full angle."
As soon as he said that, the image projected by the magic network terminal began to rotate. Melita and Balogel took a deep breath at the same time to calm their thumping hearts.
A pale golden arc appeared at the edge of the image. Balogel swallowed at the same time. He used his sculpted face to hide the anxiety in his heart. He suppressed the endless thoughts about the gods, about the war of the apocalypse, about the heavy history and the hazy future. He was ready to face the betrayal of himself.
The goddess who had been betrayed by the Dragons.
The image turned completely. A giant golden egg, still in the form of a dragon's egg, appeared in front of Balogel and Melita. A newspaper floated in front of the giant egg.
On the other side, there were several teacups floating in the air.
Those cups were floating up and down?
Is he pouring the liquid here and there?
They seemed to be having a good time.
Balogle was speechless.
. Melita..
"Ah, Balogel, and Melita. Long time no see."
A voice came from the other side of the image.
It was a familiar gentle female voice, but it was a little muffled because it was separated by a thick layer of eggshell.
"It's good to see that you're still here."
Balogel finally regained his ability to think?
Many of his previous complex thoughts were suddenly disrupted?
He subconsciously said, "Why is this an egg?"
"When you sent it here, it was an egg?"
Gwen's voice came from the other side of the image.
"Melita knows about this?
And there's a live image as evidence … "
"Ahem, no, that's not what I meant." Balogel suddenly coughed. He realized that his brain was a little sluggish under the continuous impact.
So he quickly adjusted his state of mind.
"What I meant was … why is it still an egg? What you described just now?
I thought … "
"Ah?
I understand what you mean. "Gwen's figure walked into the image from the side and stood next to the golden dome.
"She has indeed woken up, but she's still in the form of a dragon egg … We just discussed the hatching of the egg in depth, but your god doesn't know when she can hatch it."
Balogel's mouth twitched. He felt that the development of the matter had completely exceeded his expectations, but suddenly he felt that this development seemed to be a good thing … He didn't have to face that familiar figure again, and he didn't have to bear that indescribable pressure.
What he needed to face was just an … egg drinking tea and reading the newspaper.
He looked at the holographic projection in front of him, opened his mouth, but the next second he was a little stunned. He found that he didn't know how to address the other party at this moment. After another two seconds, the title in the depths of his memory came to him, and he uttered the syllable in his throat, "Wu …"
But he was suddenly interrupted after uttering the first syllable. "Balogel, stop. Don't say that word again. Don't call me respectfully, don't worship me, and don't think of me as a god. Call me by my name. From now on, you can only call me by my name."
Balogel took a deep breath. The next few syllables took a lot of effort from him, but he finally managed to say, "Madam … Enya."
At this moment, Dragonblood Archduke suddenly felt that something in the depths of his soul had silently dissipated. That thing had been lurking in the depths of his heart for a long time, and he didn't know how deep it was, and it might even resurface in his soul one day in the future. But at this moment, that thing had completely disappeared. An indescribable sense of relief surrounded Balogel.
"Yes, that's right, Balogel. You are already adults, do you still remember?" The voice of the golden egg also came from the holographic projection with a gentle smile. Compared to the gentleness of looking down on all things when she was once a god, her smile at this moment was more like that of a friend who had not been seen for many years, bringing a sense of relief. "You have defeated me, severed the shackles with your own hands, and performed a feat that no mortal race has ever done before. So, you should be confident. You should be confident in front of any god, not to mention me, a 'god' who is no longer a god."
"Lady … Enya." Balogel's voice was a little strange. "We …"
"It's all in the past," the golden giant egg said softly. "You have sacrificed so much … in exchange for the future, not the past. In fact, I didn't want to meet you so soon, but Gwen thinks that I should talk to you as soon as possible to avoid some hidden dangers after entering the 'godless era'. It just so happens that I have some things to tell you … "
…
In Cecil City, Gwen saw that things had begun to develop in a good direction, so he was ready to leave first.
He had more than one thing to do, and there was another meeting waiting for him today.
Before leaving, he looked at Enya and said, "After that, it's your 'business'. Please allow me to leave this portable magic network terminal here for the time being. It only has the most basic communication function, but in two days, a special terminal will be sent here. You can look forward to it."
"Thank you for the arrangement," Enya said, and the shimmering surface of the eggshell moved up and down. "Also, you can look forward to the 'drink' I've made for you. I've found a little feeling."
Gwen could not help but look at the floating teacups beside the golden giant egg, and a smile appeared on his face. After saying goodbye to Enya politely, he left the room with a smile on his face.
Not long after, in the Fortress of Disobedience deep in the Realm of Shadows, Gwen stepped alone through the energy barrier door that led to the courtyard area. The chaotic and dim broken land stretched before his eyes, and there was a 'path' connected by ancient alloy and steel chains snaking forward. At the end of the broken land, the mountain-like body was still lying quietly among the ruins. A holy glow rose from there, illuminating the dim place.
Around the colossal body, a large number of brand-new arcanotech devices were operating. Some kind of invisible 'field' covered the entire area. Although it was formless, Gawain knew that this verification technology known as the 'anti-divinity barrier' was blocking the spiritual corruption from the gods.
He walked towards Amoun the Giant Deer, and saw that the magic network terminal in front of Amoun was projecting a new play from Firm Pictures. This series of magical movies about the War of the Misty Moon was a hot topic of discussion among the imperial citizens.
As Gwen approached, Amoun also turned his eyes at the same time. A low, pleasant, and slightly resonating voice rang in the air. "It's been a while, Gwen."
"Are you satisfied with these things?" Gwen smiled and nodded, as if chatting with an old friend. "These special devices were made by the chief craftsmen of the empire."
"Quite satisfied, my friend." Amoun's tone was very happy, a joy that Gwen had never seen before. "After three thousand years of boredom, these interesting gadgets are real treasures … You have indeed created something incredible."
"As long as you are satisfied," Gwen said. Then he did not mention the Silver Queen, but looked around casually and suddenly said, "Is Madam Mirmina not here?"
The atmosphere in the courtyard instantly froze. Ah Mo 'en did not make a sound, and only the program projected by the Weave terminal was still being broadcasted. A cluster of extremely small sparks flashed in the corner of Gawain's vision, but when he looked over, all he saw was chaos and darkness.
The stalemate and awkwardness lasted for nearly half a minute before Amoun finally said, "Mirmina … This is the name of the Goddess of Magic. Hasn't she gone missing? She ran to the deepest part of the Realm of Shadows … Why do you think she will appear here? "
Gwen's eyes swept across the surrounding darkness, and he shrugged helplessly. "Isn't she here every day? Or is it you who is watching the magical movies intensely?"
Amoun still did not say anything, so Gwen continued, "If one terminal is not enough for the two of you, I can install another one here to prevent you from fighting …"
"Come out," Amoun said to the side. "Since we have been discovered, there is no need to hide."
As soon as he said that, a swirling cloud emerged from the dark space out of thin air. There were sparks of Olympian mathematics in the cloud, and countless mysterious runes bound the bottom layer of the cloud. A huge figure with obvious female features quickly took shape in the fog. In just a few seconds, an unusually tall 'goddess' with an illusory and transparent lower body and a beautiful upper body appeared in front of Gwen. The first thing she did was to glare at Amoun.
"How many times have you betrayed me?" Mirmina put her hands on her hips and said with annoyance, "You didn't even hesitate!"
"I hesitated because of a very intense internal struggle."
"A total of one second?!"
"Mental activity is a matter of a moment …"
Gwen had long expected Mirmina to be here, but when he saw the two gods suddenly arguing like mortals, he was instantly stunned. He looked at the interaction between Mirmina and Amoun, which had obviously become a mode of interaction. Not only did it subvert the mortal's imagination of the gods, but it also subverted Gwen's own imagination.
But soon, Gawain vaguely thought of something. His gaze turned from astonishment to thoughtfulness as he looked at the two gods of the past, before finally turning into a smile.
Amoun also seemed to have just realized that there was a third person present. He coughed softly and ended the argument with Mirmina. "Let's not argue. I have guests in my courtyard today."
Mirmina reluctantly stopped. Then she looked down and fell on Gwen. After a little awkwardness and hesitation, she broke the silence in a low voice. "Hello."
"Madam Mirmina." Gwen looked up with a smile on his face. "This is not the first time we have dealt with each other, but it is indeed the first time we have met."
"The last time we dealt with each other was the grand funeral you prepared for me," the Goddess of Magic said calmly. The Goddess of Magic said calmly. She now looked calm and elegant, completely unlike the attitude she had when arguing with Ah Moen just now.
Perhaps the human part was not stable enough?
Gwen had a guess in his mind. At the same time, he asked casually, "Were you satisfied with the funeral?"
"Very surprised. What you did surprised me for a long time, but I was also very satisfied. The funeral made everything go well."
Gwen nodded and said in a casual tone, "But after that, you have been hiding in the Realm of Shadows and did not contact us. Was it because you were worried that the 'disconnection' would happen again?"
Mirmina looked at Gwen more and more seriously. She lowered her height. The layers of clouds on her lower body looked like a complicated palace dress, and it looked like she was squatting down. Although this still did not put her at the same level as Gwen, it was enough to make the conversation more comfortable. "Maybe you will think that I am too cautious, but I have to avoid all hidden dangers. At that time, I was not sure how effective the 'purification' of your neural network was, and how far you and the mortals you led could explore in the unknown field of 'divinity'."
"So, are you a little relieved now?"
"Not completely, but at least half," Mirmina said seriously, and then suddenly smiled. "Otherwise, I would never have come out — even if the old deer betrayed me without hesitation."
Amoun's voice immediately came from the side. "As I said, I had a very fierce internal struggle at that time …"
