With a trace of apprehension, the first Mayfair slowly followed the second Mayfair. She looked at the second Mayfair's majestic uniform and could not help but be absent-minded.
"Are you afraid?" The second Mayfair suddenly asked in a low voice … … without looking back.
"No … …" The first Mayfair shook her head and said self-deprecatingly, "I just suddenly realized that wearing this uniform is actually quite good … … I have never worn it before."
The first Mayfair had already escaped from the temple the day before she officially passed the assessment … … She could not understand why her other self, the second Mayfair, was already an official member and even the deputy captain of the guards.
"Do you really want to wear this uniform?" The second Mayfair turned her head this time.
The first Mayfair opened her mouth and looked at the second Mayfair's eyes. She subconsciously said, "You … … Don't you know why?"
"I know." The second Mayfair smiled and said, "Because my father was also a member of the temple guards. Since she was very young, Mayfair worshipped her father very much and dreamed of becoming a member of the temple guards when she grew up."
It seemed that this was the only topic they could talk about … … Then they walked in silence in the temple, avoiding the patrolling guards one by one.
Finally, they walked out of the temple together … … and came to the end of the trial road behind the temple.
"Here?" The first Mayfair subconsciously looked at the second Mayfair.
She said, "This is the trial road … … and also the place where it all begins. Do you know why you have to pass the trial road if you want to become a tribe's village? "
The first Mayfair said without thinking, "Because only those who pass the trial road are the most outstanding sprites and have the ability to shoulder the future of the entire tribe. It has been like this since ancient times."
The second Mayfair suddenly said, "Then do you think the village chief in the village can be said to be the most outstanding sprite … … Is he wise enough and brave enough?"
Firstly, Mayfair subconsciously said, "I don't know … I haven't had much contact with them. But since he is already the village chief, it is enough to prove that he has passed the trial path and has enough ability. "
"What if I say that the current village chief hasn't actually finished the trial path … he's just lying to everyone?" Second Mayfair suddenly said.
"What did you say? Grandpa Village Chief, he … this is impossible! "First Mayfair said in disbelief," How could he deceive everyone! "
"Why not?" Secondly, Mayfair said indifferently, "As long as someone assumes his identity and completes the three tests of the road of trials in everyone's eyes, wouldn't that be enough?"
"Who is it?" First Mayfair asked subconsciously.
"Father." Secondly, Mayfair said in a deep voice, "The man who united with Mother and gave birth to you … and me, he successfully completed the trial."
This was something that she … had never told Mayfair.
"This … but?" First Mayfair was in disbelief, "Why … pretend?"
"In order to obtain the power to defeat the Oracle." Second Mephistopheles gently exhaled, "You know, as an offering, it's impossible to combine with a member of the opposite sex in love … Unless there's someone who can successfully defeat the Oracle during the Grand Ceremony, only then can the offering be taken away. Father is very clear that the power of the Oracle is absolutely not something that he can handle. Therefore, the trial path is his only hope. "
"Aren't the people of the Temple Guards absolutely prohibited from challenging the trial path … so, he had to pretend to be Grandpa Village Chief?" First Mayfair instantly reacted.
Second Mayfair nodded and said, "Only in this way can he avoid the eyes of the Temple Guards. Furthermore, father doesn't care about the matter of becoming the village chief after completing the trial path. He only cares about defeating the Oracle … finally, he can also deceive the Oracle. "
First Mayfair shook her head and subconsciously said, "I have never heard of any power that can be obtained through the trial path."
"That's for sure." Second Mayfair said indifferently, "Because the current village chief didn't pass the trial by himself at all. He was just lucky to be chosen by father. He was elected as the new village chief under the circumstances that he didn't have enough tolerance … Naturally, he also doesn't know what kind of power can be obtained after completing the trial path. In fact, you can treat the current village chief as a fake one. He is indeed so. "
Second Mayfair directly walked out of the totem pillars at the back door of the Temple Guards … First Mayfair saw this and hurriedly chased after him.
She even quickly caught up with him, but at this time, she was greeted by a vast expanse of white fog. She almost couldn't see her … other self.
Second Mayfair suddenly said at this time, "These totem pillars were built by Goddess Prama. The purpose is to resist the spread of this white fog … Do you know who created this white fog? You should be able to guess who the power that can make Goddess [Prama] fear belongs to in this tribal world. "
"Gloria!" First Mayfair couldn't help but exclaim at this time, "Another legendary sleeping goddess!"
Saying so, the vast expanse of white fog suddenly split open a passage. Then, they saw a statue … The third stage of the trial path, the statue that would ask the challenger questions.
At this time, looking at the blindfolded female statue in front of them, who was hung with chains like a sinner, First Mayfair stepped back in fear.
"[The Statue of the Goddess of Gloria] …" The second Mephistopheles said slowly, "She died here and became this statue."
"Her? Who? "
"Who else?"
"Goddess … Gloria!"
…
…
Captain Malik's patience almost made Dr. Görs desperate. He had already started talking about Jesus, but he didn't talk so much. Then, Captain Malik played with various torture instruments and quickly talked about the [Chessboard].
Even the servants, masters, and so on. At this time, Dr. Görs seemed to say everything he could and couldn't say. He just wanted to protect himself.
"… That's about it." Dr. Görs finally sighed, "We have no choice now. The only thing we can do is to solve the matter of Mayfair's time reversal, then we can leave here … Leave [Today], otherwise, I'm afraid we will be trapped in [Today]."
Captain Malik was silent.
Dr. Görs said, "I know this is difficult for you [Chessboard] creatures to accept … You think that the world in front of you is the whole world, but you didn't expect that such a world is just a plaything in the hands of others. Even your own life and death is just to please others … You don't seem surprised at all?"
Captain Malik said indifferently, "Someone once said the same thing as you."
"Who?" Dr. Görs asked subconsciously.
Captain Malik glanced at him indifferently and said slowly, "It's a guy named Geralt, like you, claiming to be from the world outside [Chessboard]."
"Geralt … Snève's accomplice?" Dr. Görs opened his mouth and immediately said, "No, even if Geralt really told you this, under Mayfair's time reversal, you shouldn't remember anything … No, you said that you know how to really kill me. Even if time is reversed, I won't come back! So you knew from the very beginning about Mayfair's time reversal. You even knew that there would be two Mayfair at the same time in [Today]. I understand now … So that's how it is! "
"What do you understand?" Captain Malik narrowed his eyes.
Dr. Görs said slowly, "I understand why you didn't expose Mayfair at the beginning at the door of the inner palace. Later, you clearly wanted to let her go, but suddenly attacked her and imprisoned her."
"Tell me."
Dr. Görs said, "Because when you were in front of the door of the inner palace, you weren't sure which Mayfair appeared in front of you and which Mayfair was on the ground, so you didn't make a move. You took her to a remote place, deliberately said those words, and even wanted to let her go. In fact, you wanted to confirm which one she was … As long as this Mayfair's answer wasn't the answer that the vice-captain of the Temple Guards should give, you could confirm … and then make a move. But it seems like you don't want Mayfair, who is the vice-captain, to know that you actually know about her time reversal? "
"Some people say that smart people die quickly." Captain Malik said expressionlessly, "It seems that you are not far from death."
"You don't want to kill me." Dr. Görs said quickly at this time, "If you wanted to kill me, you would have killed me long ago. You wouldn't have brought me to this place and asked me so many questions — because, you clearly remember that you sent me to the inner palace. Now, Mayfair's time has been reversed, and I have also been reversed … so, for you, I am also special. You should still want to get something from me … as long as I am still of some value to you … actually, I mean, I can cooperate with others, such as you. "
"Time's up." Captain Malik sneered at this time.
In the darkness, he slowly stretched out his hand … and reached for Dr. Görs's head — and grabbed it tightly.
Dr. Görs even had a feeling that his head was about to be crushed by the other party … he only felt that his skull was about to break at any time. He was in so much pain that he couldn't help but scream.
"It's time to attend the grand ceremony." Captain Malik said slowly.
He put down his hand, and Dr. Görs's head directly lowered.
…
…
The road of trial, the third level … in front of [Gloria's Statue].
Listening to the narration of the second Mayfair, the first Mayfair seemed to think of something and blurted out, "Who … who killed the goddess [Gloria]? Legend has it that the goddess [Prama] and the goddess [Gloria] created the hometown of the elves together. "
"Naturally, only the gods can kill the gods."
"Goddess [Prama] … how is this possible?" The first Mayfair said in horror, "They, they are sisters!"
The second Mayfair said indifferently, "What kind of world do you think the outside world … outside the forest?"
"I don't know, I have never seen it." The first Mayfair shook his head and immediately said, "Perhaps it is a very prosperous place with a lot of humans and things that have never been seen before. They will live happily with a lot of delicious things … candies and the like."
— — Who … who said something like this to me?
When the first Mayfair said this, he didn't know why he had a feeling of deja vu.
"What a beautiful world." The second Mayfair shook his head, "But the fact is not so beautiful … the outside world is dominated by a terrifying power. It wantonly changes all the rules of the outside world, just like a real supreme god. The whole world has become a puppet of this power … in the end, this power even invaded here. The hometown of the elves was created by the two goddesses. For them, it is like a child. So, in order to resist the rule of this mysterious power, the goddess [Prama] made a decision. "
The first Mayfair was shocked subconsciously and said with a trembling voice, "What decision …"
The second Mayfair said, "Sacrificing the life and power of a goddess to resist the invasion of this terrible power that dominates the whole world … because of this, the goddess [Gloria] died in the hands of her beloved sister [Prama]."
"The goddess … the goddess we have been worshipping, unexpectedly …" The first Mayfair's face was pale at this time, "actually killed another goddess with her own hands … the goddess who created our elves' hometown together …"
"It's hard to accept, right?" The second Mayfair said faintly, "For all the elves … such a goddess [Prama] is like a sinner. Yes, such a goddess [Prama], is it still worthy for the elves to worship? "
"It's … it's just to let the elf tribe continue to survive …" The first Mayfair said with a trembling voice, "In order to let the elves live, not to be dominated, not to be enslaved, everyone … everyone will understand …"
"Everyone will understand … understand." The second Mayfair's smile was pale at this time, looking at the first Mayfair with a sad expression, "Do you know, when [Prama] killed her sister [Gloria], she also said the same thing … even your expression is the same."
The first Mayfair retreated in fear … She subconsciously raised her head and looked at the [Statue of the Goddess of Gloria] in front of her. As if she was being interrogated from the depths of her soul, she suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"You … why do you know this …" The first Mayfair looked at her other self in a daze.
"Why?" The second Mayfair walked to the front of the first Mayfair, "You say … why? Because I am the power that father obtained in the trial road. "
At the same time, on the forehead of the second Mayfair, a black pattern began to bloom slowly.
