MTL - Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds-Chapter 11 Altar of Heroes
With the last murmur, Kant suddenly found that he understood Tina's words.
Including the words that the natives yelled at him before.
Aurora.
Princess.
some type of.
Etc., etc.
The brilliance magic circle behind Tina shattered, and all the stars flowed into Kant's body.
He felt some kind of change in his body going on.
Kant suddenly heard the princess behind him say: "I'm sorry, this must be a misunderstanding, I don't know what just happened, but now we can communicate with each other, you can understand our words, I'm Tina-Terrariel, Daughter of Archduke Goethe, I hope we can temporarily clear up the misunderstanding and resolve the conflict just now with restraint and peace..."
Kant wanted to speak, but suddenly, his body shook.
He gritted his teeth, held the gun, pushed the princess behind him away, and stood up: "Aang!"
A gorilla with a steel rod came running fast.
He breathed a sigh of relief, his feet softened, he fell into the arms of the gorilla, and muttered: "I'm a little sleepy, take me back to sleep, don't trust them..."
After speaking, he tilted his head and fell asleep.
The other animals slowly gathered around.
The princess was taken aback, she spoke sincerely to these spiritual creatures, tried her best to express kindness, and convey her own harmlessness. This was the end of the matter, and she would do her best.
"Please don't worry, he's fine, he's really fine..."
As soon as she said a few words, she found that the explanation was meaningless at all, because these animals did not show hostility and murderous intent. For some reason, the eyes that looked at her seemed to be kind.
They gathered around, and most of their eyes were on Kant.
In the eyes of the pair of beasts, there is a complex emotion like a human being.
They stared at Kant silently, wondering what they were thinking.
A few moments later, the kangaroo barked a few times, then the wolverine, then the groundhog... Honestly, this scene is kind of funny, and if it happened in a circus, it would probably make the audience applaud eagerly.
But none of the humans present could laugh.
They clearly felt a solemn atmosphere.
It's as if these animals are seriously discussing topics of enormous importance, perhaps even changing the course of history.
It's like voting.
Then, the kangaroo called out to the orangutan twice.
The orangutan also responded with a cry, then carefully picked up Kant, dragged the steel rod, and left without looking at the people present.
Animals follow it.
At this moment, several other teams who were searching and rescued around also came. They were startled, but seeing that Her Royal Highness was in good condition, they did not care to stop this strange circus team and came to Tina one after another.
Tina said softly: "I'm worrying everyone, please treat the injured people, and ask them about the specific situation. As for me... I'll go over and have a look."
The head maid, Ms. Bedra, wanted to stop her, but was stopped by the Cleveland Cavaliers' gaze.
She and the captain glanced at the situation and couldn't help but feel awe.
More than half of this elite team of more than a dozen people was injured, and it could be described as embarrassing.
The princess looked at her knight: "I'll wrap it up for you."
The knight stepped back quietly, bowed and said, "The master and the servant are different, just ask Ms. Bedra to come."
In this conflict, he was the most seriously injured, his head was shot by a shotgun, two rubber projectiles collapsed directly on his forehead, a large bag was swollen, surrounded by a scary purple silt, the other side Kant came again with the handle of the gun firmly, and blood was flowing.
This is still him, if it is another person to bear it, the skull will be dry and broken.
The captain was examining the injuries of the crew when he saw the fire axe lying on the ground.
The axe has a sharp blade and is used for slashing people, and the axe has a conical head on the back, which is used for breaking armor. It is a terrible and efficient killing weapon, and it is also painted red, which is too bloody, Aurora, Aurora.
He picked it up, flicked the axe, and his face changed slightly: "What a powerful forging, what a powerful steel."
"It's just..." he muttered to himself, "Why is the material of the axe handle so bad?"
And over there, Her Royal Highness the Princess has silently kept up with the animal troops.
After a simple dressing, the knight commander also followed and guarded His Highness.
You look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do. In the end, the captain discussed with the head maid, and divided half of them to follow the protection, and the other half returned to the camp to continue working.
The princess moved forward in silence, with Cleveland half a position behind.
After hesitating for a long time, the knight finally said: "Princess..."
Tina looked sideways, because the knight commander's voice was very wrong.
There is a cry.
This famous knight, who was famous for his bravery, never retreated even in the worst battlefield, but his eyes were red at this time, and it seemed that he had suffered a great blow.
He took a deep breath: "I... I am now surrounded by huge shame and guilt, and I can't wait to use death to wash away the shame. It's all because of me, Your Royal Highness, to let you..."
"Please don't say it, Knight Commander."
Tina whispered: "You did nothing wrong, and Mr. Kant did nothing wrong. If you want to blame anyone, you can only blame the fate of being a trickster..."
She had already inquired about the previous conflict in general.
The knights and sailors were right, because she was kidnapped, and the crowd was furious. Under the premise that the suspect was locked in the "Aurora", they would definitely not be nice to the suspect.
Mr. Kant is also not wrong. In the face of such a situation and language barrier, no normal person will be handed over and hand over his life, death and dignity to others.
Suddenly, the knight commander gritted his teeth and said, "Even if you don't blame the Aurora, you should blame those beasts. If they hadn't kidnapped you, what happened just now wouldn't have happened!"
Tina sighed: "Please don't say such words again, it is a meaningless and stupid thing to trace responsibility and cause and effect indefinitely. The reason why we live here is because we have to take a boat to the imperial capital, because the empire is unwilling to right Goethe has offered too much help, so should we blame the Empire for this? Going further, should we blame the elves who started the war? It's pointless to pursue this."
She said: "In the situation just now, I had no choice but to do this, because the root cause of all conflicts is language barriers. Only smooth communication can eliminate conflicts to the greatest extent..."
The knight gritted his teeth and said, "I would rather die than you do this!"
Tina sighed lightly: "It's easy to say... If you die, then the expanded conflict is inevitable, and there is no turning back on this matter. We and Mr. Kant, one party must perish, and the other party will be completely at ease. , and we must not die on this desert island, all for Goethe's sake."
"But your sacrifice is too great."
The knight's tears rolled down, "And it's meaningless... Language communication is just the most trivial added benefit of the armoring ceremony. After awakening the soul, he must go to a heroic altar within a month to accept the advice of an ancient saint. Inheritance, otherwise, the ceremony will be wasted..."
He looked around and said desolately: "This island of natural disasters, which was sealed by the gods, where did the heroic altar come from? Even if the Penguin is repaired immediately, it will be too late for us to return to Goethe by boat..."
When the knight said this, he was even more sad when he recalled the process of fighting against Kant just now.
"His physical strength is very strong. Although he doesn't seem to have undergone professional combat training, his fighting talent and ability to adapt to changes are something I have never seen before..."
He said sadly: "If he accepts the war inheritance of the late King Ruins or Dousheng Thorne as soon as possible, it is not an extravagant hope that he will become a saint within five years, and it will be enough to become a sword to protect Goethe... But..."
The princess stopped.
She looked at the knight and said slowly: "Please don't be sad anymore, knight, things have happened, we can only look forward, we can't just look at what we have lost, but also what we can gain."
"I saved everyone's life, resolved the conflict with Mr. Kant, and even had the opportunity to reach a cooperative relationship with him. With his help, we may be able to re-sail and go to the Empire faster. Judging from the current war situation , Arrive at the imperial capital one day earlier, and Goethe can sacrifice a little less..."
Although her eyes were red, she still smiled.
"In this way, I made a lot of money. Compared to Goethe, my business is nothing..."
Hearing her say this, the knight felt more and more remorse.
The fate of the world is like this, how can he be a little knight.
"what?"
The princess suddenly whispered.
Cleveland was immediately alert: "Your Highness, what's the matter?"
"This road...isn't going back to his house..."
Tina whispered, "Where are they going?"
The animals moved on silently.
Along the way, there are also many pairs of eyes looking at this team.
In other words, looking at Kant being held by an orangutan.
The princess and the knight were full of doubts, but they could only continue to follow. This was indeed another way. Everyone was walking on the barren island, getting more and more remote and far, far away.
Stop at a hill.
Here weeds are everywhere, vines are everywhere, but birds and beasts are extinct.
The animals stepped forward, scratched with their claws, and tore off the thick vines, revealing a hole.
The orangutan went in with Kant in his arms.
The knight hesitated: "Your Highness, there is something wrong here, you still..."
Tina firmly said, "I've already done that, how can I stop here?"
Cleveland sighed.
He wanted to follow the princess to continue, but was stopped by the kangaroo. The kangaroo lit up his extremely developed biceps, then pointed to the princess, nodded, pointed to the knight, and shook his head.
In other words, princesses can go in, but knights can't.
Tina hesitated for a moment, then said, "I see, Knight Commander, please wait here."
It is a good thing to be recognized by this group of mysterious animals.
The knight originally disagreed, but still reluctantly compromised under the eyes of the other party.
In the past, he would stick to his own opinions.
But now... the princess is no longer a little girl.
He stared helplessly and worriedly as the princess slowly stepped into the dark hole.
The parrot stopped to one side, flapped its wings and cried, "Green! Green!"
- What Aurora is this **** parrot talking about?
The cave was pitch black.
The princess opened her eyes wide, barely discerning everything in front of her, and moved forward cautiously.
Suddenly, a bright light came on.
The gorilla threw the steel rod aside, held Kant in one hand, took out a flashlight from Kant in the other, lit it, and the bright beam illuminated the interior space, and looked back at the princess.
Tina quickly followed.
The surroundings were silent, only the heavy breathing of the animals remained. Such a scene was terrifying. Tina's heart was beating wildly, barely suppressing her fear.
She is actually a daring girl, but no matter how daring she is, there are limits.
In this way, we continue to move forward, passing through the natural corridor.
down to the ground.
Until a huge... underground space.
When the animals step into it, the light blooms.
The darkness was dispelled, the light was everywhere, and Tina's breath stagnated for a moment.
This is an... altar.
The light does not come from flames, and there are no luminous devices or creatures here. All the light comes from lines, yes, lines, words composed of lines, paintings composed of lines, densely packed, carved all over the walls, full of domes, full of The earth was filled with altars.
These inscriptions, these texts and murals, are all glowing.
It radiates light on its own.
It seems that the information they carry is enough to emit light that will not be extinguished for 100 million years, which represents the supreme glory and the supreme glory, and will always be inscribed in this world.
This is an altar.
No shocking sculptures, no priceless treasures, no guardians, no worshippers, nothing... but it is above all the heroic altars in the world.
Princess Tina watched all this in shock.
As Princess Goethe, she once visited the world-famous hero altars on the land of Goethe with countless glorious glory.
But at this moment, she felt that compared with this altar, those altars were so small.
There was only one question left in her mind.
This hero altar, which ancient hero's inheritance and mark is left?
The orangutan silently put Kant on the high platform of the altar.
Then step back.
The other animals stared silently at the altar.
Like a statue.
No light, no abnormal noise, no phenomenon at all.
But Tina knew that the hero commemorated by this altar, the brilliance and imprint he left were silently resonating with the primordial spirit activated in Kant's body, guiding a way forward for future generations.
Suddenly, someone pulled the corner of her clothes, turned around, and the gorilla motioned for her to leave.
So... Who is the hero that this altar commemorates?
She tried to look at the texts around her, and when she glanced at them, her head hurt. They were all ancient texts, which she couldn't easily decipher with her knowledge. She was pulled back by the impatient orangutan. Tina moved around while moving around. She looked around, trying to find out the ancient script she knew.
In the end, the princess appeared at the entrance of the cave in despair.
The loyal knight rushed to meet him, and he saw the state of His Highness: "What's the matter with you?"
Tina whispered: "Below... there is an altar of heroes."
The knight was surprised at first, then delighted.
He asked, "Better than nothing...whose?"
The princess shook her head silently.
Before leaving, she finally saw several symbols she knew in the center of the altar.
Maybe it's the title of that hero.
If she's not mistaken, the meaning of those symbols is...
She recited the name silently in her heart.
"Fire Thief..."

PS1: I can't see me on the update list, because only the books that are on the shelves can be on the list. I haven't been on the shelves. I have written 25,600 words in the past three days, and the **** update list is all in the top.
PS2: By the way, the plot has already been explained. If the knight was killed at that time, the suspicion and defense would never disappear. With Kant's mental state at that time, he had to kill everyone on the ship to avoid future troubles. It is completely impossible to write like this. I also don’t like this extreme idea for advancing the plot. I think the life and death of each character must carry its weight and meaning, instead of killing people just for sensory stimulation and the pleasure of reading, everything has to serve the plot of.
PS3: ... Okay, I won't spoil the spoiler, anyway, no matter what you say, you will definitely shout really fragrant in the end.
