God Simulator Chapter 491

  Chapter 491 The Child's Giant

   "To live is to die on an unexpected journey."

  Bone Priest Samuel has imparted a lot of knowledge and experience to everyone, and is a respectable wise man.

  But Zikad remembered this sentence, and he couldn't forget it no matter what.

   For the ancestors of the bones, death is a rare and common thing.

  In the early days of the Resurrection Kingdom, the civilian death rate was high.

   Farmers often encounter wild animals rushing to plunder when farming, the most common ones are wild boars and bison.

  They will suddenly rush into the field to feast on them. If the farmer does not escape in time, he will be knocked over by them and turned into a pile of broken bones when he lands. If he is unlucky, his skull will be crushed and he will die on the spot.

   Herdsmen are most afraid of electric wolves and rock bears.

   These two extraordinary monsters are not as easy to talk to as beasts. If the beasts that rushed into the fields and houses were looking for something to eat, at best they were stealing and robbery, then the electric wolves and the rock bears were killing people on purpose.

  Once they attack, they will first kill all the herdsmen around them, and then they will enjoy the various livestock in the pasture. Sometimes they are not for eating, but just enjoying the process of hunting and killing.

  The military strength of the kingdom is not enough to guarantee the safety of the farmland and pastures, and the soldiers are struggling to face extraordinary monsters. This situation has lasted for hundreds of years.

   Until God Yao set his sights on this world.

With the advent of the Prophet's cat grass, a series of changes began to take place in the entire resurrected kingdom: increasing remuneration to encourage animal husbandry and planting, expanding and strengthening the army, and the king must also follow the election system. Coming to support one after another...

  Zikad experienced the earth-shaking changes in the kingdom.

   During the unexpected trip to death, Zikad felt the change of being alive for the first time.

  Mage Andre told him about the outside world.

"I come from the fifth floor of the abyss. There used to be constant wars, but it is also a very wonderful place. There are many mage towers we built on the ground, there are centaur cavalry patrolling and running on the plains, and there are people practicing on foot in the forests and mountains. Monks, vampires turned into bats, often passing by with the night..."

   "If you have a chance, you can go and have a look."

"You are an optimistic adventurer, Zikad. You will encounter many troubles and dangers, but that is the road you will choose... Some people will choose the road traveled by many people. Those places are safe and flat, but Because it's been trampled everywhere, it's hard to get any surprises."

Andre smiled and patted Zikad's dry shoulder: "And you, my friend, you will take those paths less traveled. I know you will do that, if not now, you will do it someday in the future choice."

   Soon after, the hero Siddhar accomplished the near-impossible feat.

  It uses actions on the battlefield to prove that the ancestors of the bones can also become feared and respected giants, and the thin skeleton body does not only represent humbleness and cannon fodder.

everything is possible.

  During the same period of time, Zikad also applied to become a reporter for the "Shacheng Mansion Newspaper", responsible for local reports in the Resurrection Kingdom.

   It followed up and reported the marriage ceremony between the martyrdom and Theodore in [Kashima Shrine]. The gods and the apostle Theodore were too low-key, and there was no news of them appearing outside the shrine.

  The news was so small that there was only one sentence, and Zikad retained some elements that the masses liked in the report.

  After the report came out, it was beaten several times, and the opponent's strikes were ruthless and accurate, so that Zikad had already been quartered by five horses before he recovered. He had severe bone fractures all over his body and it took him a while to recover.

   Then it was recruited by the Di newspaper to the headquarters in Shacheng, where it was responsible for local reports.

  With the baby in his hands, Zikad was in a strange mood.

  Bone ancestors were infertile, and the increase in population was entirely dependent on [Bone Grave Mounds], so there was no concept of family, and it was more divided by occupational groups.

  It heard from Master Andre before.

   "It was very difficult for my wife to give birth to a child. She is a vampire. It is very difficult for a superhuman to give birth to the next generation... At first, Alyosha and I were very scared. We were too busy and lacked time to accompany the children."

"But it's a wonderful feeling to actually have a child. Zikad, I can't say it, but I just feel that life is full of hope and fighting spirit... I want to be a qualified adult and more Role models. Children are the future and the world belongs to them.”

   When Andre said this, there was a satisfied smile on his face, as if he had received a gift from the gods.

   Zikad carefully holds the baby dug out from under the ice.

  He has delicate and thin skin, but his whole body is as cold as snow. He looks so weak, his body is slightly expanding and contracting.

  The Nibelungen child slowly opened his eyes.

  His eyelashes are very long, and his pupils are blue, like jewels. His small lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.

  In the end, he just held Zikad's bony fingers tightly with his soft little hands, as if nothing could make him let go.

   But Zikad has a way.

   It rummages out of the toolbox, smears lard on the hand bones, and slips out of the baby's fingers.

   "Sorry, I really didn't expect to dig you up."

   "You can continue to sleep."

   Zikad put the baby back in the pit, quickly buried the ice, and tamped the ground with a shovel.

   When it packed up its things and turned to leave, it found that the child had crawled out of the ice, looking at him curiously with blue eyes.

   Zicard walked, so did he, and the boy crawled deftly on the ice without slowing down.

   This made Zikad a little embarrassed.

  Bury him again, the child may still come out. According to Andre, the child is very energetic and sleeps very heavily, but when he wakes up, he is as hyperactive as a berserker.

   Zikad flipped through his backpack.

   Got it!

  It found a bottle of potion [Sleeping Potion] and poured it all down for the baby. The other party soon fell into a deep sleep, lying on the ground sprawled and motionless.

very good.

Good boy.

   Zikad buried it in the underground ice cave again.

   Now it should be fine.

  But when it walked to the edge of the country of fog with its backpack on its back, it suddenly saw that the child followed behind him at some point.

  Although the baby couldn't help yawning all the time, he still followed up tenaciously.

  Zikad realized that the child had a stubborn desire to follow him, but he dared not or could not leave the country of fog.

  So when he walked out of the country of fog, the baby stared blankly at this side, but there was a reluctant expression on his face—but he didn't cry.

  Zikad gave him the empty bottle of sleeping potion as a souvenir.

  Back to the mansion newspaper office in Shacheng, Zikad handed over the crystal phase he took with [Coral Crystal Phase] to the newspaper office. After these crystal phases are selected, an artist will be invited to copy them and put them on newspapers.

  A few days later, the latest issue of Shacheng Mansion News was released, and one of the headlines was "Explore the Land of Fog" written by Zikad.

   This is the first detailed record of a visit to the Land of Mist ever recorded, however, there is no mention of the Nibelungen baby in the ice.

   A month later, Zikad entered the country of fog again.

  This time it is going to investigate a strange incident that has made a lot of noise.

  According to the feedback from the scholars of the Temple Society, frequent earthquakes occurred on the ground of the Land of Mist, and the ice layer began to fluctuate violently like ocean waves, making it difficult and dangerous for them to collect ice spring toxins.

   Deep underground in Niflheim, it seems that some kind of power is gradually recovering.

   To this, the blood knight guarding the inexhaustible spring just said: "It's a giant."

   According to legend, the country of fog is one of the origins of giants.

   At least one giant is being conceived in the country of fog.

   Zikad carried his bag all the way into the country of fog. On this ice field covered with cold white fog, it experienced two small earthquakes, which almost damaged the precious [coral crystal phase].

  While it protected the all-important picker gear, the large tool bag was missing.

There are not only necessary items such as potions, iron picks, shovels, ropes, and steam stoves, but also important special oils. Zikad has to spread the oils all over his body so as not to freeze the bones and joints of his body. and embrittlement.

  Death is approaching.

   Just as Zikad was about to let go of his worries, a boy walked out of the fog. He found Zicard's kit and returned it intact.

   "Thank you so much! It was a great help!"

  Zikad was so excited that he gestured and said in Yao language: "I am Zikad, a reporter from the Mansion Newspaper Office. Are you from the Temple Society?"

  The teenager smiled at him.

   Zikad felt something was wrong.

  The boy was wearing tattered clothes, which were worn by adults. His hands were not gloved, his neck was exposed to the ice mist, and he had bare feet under his wide trouser legs.

  He looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, with snow-white hair, dazzlingly white skin, and blue eyes.

  The teenager can't speak, but he can understand Zikad's meaning.

  He made a series of gestures, pointing to the pendant around his neck—it was a small glass bottle tied with a string.

   Zikad watched.

   "Dig the earth? No, dig the ice?"

"sleep?"

   "Drink water? Drink alcohol? Drink medicine?"

   "Leave, parting?"

   Zikad suddenly snapped his jaw, and one of his teeth fell out.

  It finally knew what the other party was talking about.

  The child is talking, he is the baby who was dug out by himself.

   Zikad was excited and surprised.

  The growth rate of the Nibelungen clan is so fast that they can transform from a baby into a teenager in just one month.

   Then the ground shook again.

  The young man had a surprised expression on his face, and he looked into the distance.

   Zikad barely stabilized his body.

  It discovered that a huge hole had been cracked in the ground, and many people crawled out from the ground and the glacier. They are all like teenagers, with white hair and white skin, and blue pupils, but most of them are very young, almost all children, and there are very few boys and girls.

   At the center around which all the Nibelungen children revolve, is a young man who is unisex.

  His silver hair spread out, covering his body almost completely, like some kind of mysterious totem. All the children moved towards him, reaching out to touch him.

  The moment they touched, these children merged with the long-haired young man, making the young man even taller. With the assimilation and integration of a large number of children, the form of the young people in the center is constantly changing and distorting.

  He turned into a towering giant, wearing an armor made of ice and snow, with a faint blue light lingering on the armor.

  The boy looked at Zikad, then at the giant.

  He pointed to the giant facing this way, signaling that he would also go there.

   Zikad is not feeling well.

  As a bone mage, it also has a certain understanding of the basics of spells and various abilities. This is a completely integrated spell, almost a symbiosis.

  The giants of the Land of Mist were originally formed by the children of the Nibelungen—in other words, the Nibelungen family is more like the childhood of the giants of the Land of Mist.

  It takes a large number of children to form a grown giant.

   This way of growing up made Zikad feel dangerous and weird.

  It grabbed the boy and said, "Don't go."

  The young man showed a confused and hesitant expression on his face, and he gestured to show that the call of the giant made it difficult for him to resist.

   "I don't know if you can understand...you can go over and be part of the giant."

   Zikad gestured: "You don't have to go back and live like a child outside. Becoming a giant is not the only choice for you to live."

  The boy seemed to understand.

   But there was a look of uneasiness and tension on his face, as if he was terrified at the mere thought of resisting the giant.

  The boy stood where he was, still hesitating.

  However, the giant has already completed the integration of other Nibelung children, and is walking towards this side step by step. At this time, it was more than 30 meters tall, like a hill, every step it took would shake the ground.

  The giant's wide five fingers fell from the air to the boy.

  The boy suddenly turned his face, showing pain and fear.

   Zicard grabbed him and dragged him behind him.

   "Run! Run out!"

  The boy seemed to understand, and ran away with his legs.

  Zikad also wanted to escape, but was shattered by the giant's slap. At the critical moment, Zikad deftly threw his skull far away with both hands, but unfortunately it got stuck on an ice pick.

  The giant stepped on Zikad's skull.

  At the last moment of his life, Zikad had neither fear nor terror in his heart.

   It's just annoyed.

   It's a pity that we didn't get to capture the Nibelung children growing into giants.

   However, the expected death fragment did not appear.

  A black lightning bolt fell on the head, hitting the giant staggeringly back two steps.

   Zikad came back to his senses and saw a black armored knight standing in front of him.

  Blood Knight Nevid.

   "Who allowed you to hurt the Yao people, the Frost Giant?"

  The giant roared angrily and unwillingly, but in the end it spread its hands, as if eagerly explaining something.

  The blood knight just raised the big sword in his hand and pointed at the opponent: "Next time, I will send you back to the inexhaustible fountain."

  The Frost Giant's whole body froze suddenly, it hurriedly turned and retreated, and quickly disappeared into the ice mist.

   Zikad breathed a sigh of relief.

  Where the power of Lord Yao is, the Yao people can get the greatest degree of security.

  The Land of Mist is the territory and origin of the giants, and also the bed and hometown of the Nibelungs, but only God Yao is the master here.
