Ger was dreaming.
He often dreams. Ever since he came into contact with the Black Death Sword, he started dreaming. In his dreams, he could hear many voices. Those voices constantly tortured Gel, making him think he was crazy for a time, but it was not all bad.
That is, every time Ger wakes up, he always gains some knowledge that he has never heard of before.
It was also this knowledge that allowed him to learn how to fight... Otherwise, how could he, a tribesman who knew nothing, slaughter so many gods?
The Black Death Sword is indeed very powerful, but if it is given to a person who knows nothing, it is just like a baby holding a sledgehammer, and he cannot use the power even if he has it. Geer learned to fight by relying on the knowledge in his dreams, otherwise he would not be able to use the power given to him by the Black Death Sword.
Of course, sometimes he would dream about his family.
The family members in the dream were all very miserable, especially his daughter, who kept asking him why she couldn't find her father...
If Geer could calm down, he would know that this thing is not normal at all. People do have mental problems, and it is normal to think too much and dream. But it is not normal to keep dreaming.
But Gel is a family-oriented person. He feels extremely uncomfortable every time he wakes up from a dream, but he still wants to continue dreaming.
It is obvious that someone is secretly guiding Gel.
Today, Geer dreamed again.
He dreamed of how to obtain the Heart of the Ancient God.
All he had to do was to destroy the three nodes. As long as the nodes were destroyed, he could break the seal, and then enter the sealed area and take out the heart of the ancient god.
Soon, he knew where the first sealing node was.
London.
177A Bleecker Street.
The Great Guardian has three energy nodes, and the mages of Kamar-Taj built three temples on these three nodes.
They are in New York, London and Hong Kong.
In fact, these three nodes are not always stable, but according to the changes in the world, the energy nodes will also change. However, generally speaking, it takes a very long time for the nodes to move, at least within a thousand years.
In the last millennium, the nodes were not these three regions.
In the last millennium, they were in Rome, Chang'an and Mexico City.
The mages would also relocate the temples according to the locations of the nodes... This was relatively easy for them, because they could store the temples in the subspace at any time and then release them.
In this millennium, the three nodes are New York, London and Hong Kong.
It’s a very interesting arrangement, they are all the most prosperous cities in the three continents.
Of course, this topic has always been a research project of mages, but after thousands of years, nothing has been found.
London... This was Geer's first time in this city. To be honest, Geer didn't like this city.
London in winter is more in line with everyone's imagination - it gets dark early, and there is a hint of dampness in the air when the lights are on; pedestrians are mostly wearing black woolen coats and are in a hurry. London in winter is probably the most common "cold" time of the year. Half of the time, the sky is cloudy. The most easily misunderstood thing about London in winter is the temperature. Many people habitually feel cold when they think of Britain, especially those who have come here to escape the heat in summer. The highest average temperature in London in July is about 22℃, and the lowest average temperature in January is 2℃. In London in winter, we will basically get a temperature of about 7℃ when we go out during the day. I guess this is probably the reason why the British can keep the tradition of woolen coats and not be replaced by down jackets.
Brick Street is a relatively old street in London.
There are many shops and cafes here, and it is one of the favorite areas for urban white-collar workers. It is also a place where many artists gather, and there are a lot of graffiti in some places.
But Ger still didn't like it here.
One is the climate.
The planet where Gel is located may be a little close to its star, so the climate is dry and hot. It only rains during the rainy season every year. In most other seasons, the sun is shining brightly. This causes the race where Gel is located to be more drought-resistant and have little resistance to wet and cold weather.
So he hates the weather here.
Also, I don't like the atmosphere here.
The people here are a little...how should I put it?
A group of thugs trying hard to hide themselves?
This may sound a bit exaggerated, but Gel can feel that everyone here seems to be a little irritable, but they pretend to be civilized. This gives people a very pretentious and incongruous feeling.
Each of them was very arrogant, whether it was their tone, the way they looked at people, or even the actions they made. They were all trying their best to show this, but they had to pretend that it was nothing, which made people even more uncomfortable.
Lack of cooperation, irritability, impetuousness, and some uncivilized behavior. Londoners are often considered the most unpopular "citizens". Although they are open-minded and easy to accept new things, they lack cooperation, like to quarrel, and are irritable. In addition, Londoners are described as "sly", meaning that they are good at calculating and focus on personal interests.
Londoners have a weird kind of pride, especially when it comes to public transport, where they don't say hello to each other or smile at others.
In short, it seems like everyone here is pretending.
But they think they are pretending to be very good... This makes people feel uncomfortable.
(Londoners are rude and have no manners. This is what the British themselves say... I am not slandering them)
Gel wanted to ask for directions, but unfortunately... the people here were very impatient.
After asking several times, Geer felt that he was about to be infected. What the hell, what kind of person is this! If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Why are you so angry?
Until finally he met a child... He thought the child was innocent and would be able to help.
Then he was robbed!
That's right, I was robbed by a kid! With a knife!
Geer was stunned. Even in his desert hometown, children would not be so ridiculous. You know, this place is obviously a very developed place...
In fact, this is because Gel did not do his homework.
You know, in the UK, they themselves think that what is more terrifying than terrorists is juvenile crime!
In the UK, armed crime among teenagers has become an extremely serious social phenomenon. But while we are protecting ourselves, we will also face serious legal issues. The laws in the UK to protect minors are very strict. If you are not careful, you will be charged with violence against minors and the sentence will be very heavy. But! Children who have committed crimes cannot escape. After the age of 10, minors will lose the protection of the law. The law stipulates that citizens of England and Wales must bear criminal responsibility after the age of 10. Moreover, even if the citizen is under 10 years old, he will not be fine if he commits a crime. Frequent crimes will make their parents responsible for their children's crimes.
In the UK, firstly, minors are strictly protected, and secondly, juvenile crimes are severely punished.
(Many local Chinese are most aware of this. When it comes to safety issues in the UK, the first thing that comes to mind is often not terrorist attacks, but juvenile crimes around them. Almost every Chinese has experienced malicious or even attacks from bad British teenagers, from whistling teasing, slapping for no reason, verbal abuse and discrimination... to knife attacks, car robberies, burglaries, and throwing sulfuric acid on the streets... and the police can do nothing about them)
根据英国司法部的数据，2012年至2022年间，英格兰和威尔士10至17岁青少年使用刀具和其他攻击性武器袭击他人案件数量增加了19%。与之相比，成年人持刀袭击案数量增加了8%。英国国家统计局的数据则显示，2022年英国持刀或锋利工具犯罪的案件数量达到4.9万件，同比增加10%。持刀犯罪案件大多发生在青少年群体中。英国司法部审结上述案件的数据显示，近1/5的犯罪人员为10岁至17岁的未成年人。
What’s even more interesting is that because teenagers are protected, they are targeted by gangs.
British street gangs like to recruit these underage children, the younger the better, because they don't need to say anything if they commit crimes, and judges and police can't do anything about them. It's even more impossible to sentence them. This has also led to the emergence of juvenile gangs.
They have a special term: teenager!
Teenagers usually refer to young people aged 10-17 in the UK (the legal age of criminal responsibility in England and Wales is 10 years old and above). They often gather together to carry out various pranks such as verbally provoking passers-by, spraying people with small water guns, shooting fireworks at passers-by at stations, and even some crimes such as stabbing people.
Simply put, it's a naughty kid.
But the destructive power of these naughty kids is so great that it gives the police a headache. Many teenage gangs have to wait until they reach adulthood before the police can catch them!
The God Butcher wanted to ask those kids wandering the streets for directions...bad luck for him.
However, for other people, beating a child might be a concern, but not for Gel… He is not even from Earth!
He might give the kids some patience, but that didn't mean they could rob him with a knife.
So those naughty kids got into trouble.
They had their limbs broken by Gol... and then Gol learned the bad news.
There is no 177A on Bleecker Street!
Gel found the next door to 177A and found that it was indeed the case. Next to 176 was 178. There was no 177 at all!
This is very abnormal, but people around me are used to it, as if it should be this way!
Ger was a little confused.
But thinking back to the scene in the dream.
Ger understood.
No. 177A was hidden.
So in public, Gel drew out his Black Death Sword.
Then the space fluctuated, and No. 177, who had been hidden, suddenly appeared out of thin air like an origami being opened, without any sense of disobedience. It was as if No. 177 had always been there.
Gel pushed the door open and walked in.
An old man with a white beard was inside.
"Damn you Wang Yuan! I told you not to write the courier address here!"
The old man didn't seem surprised at all by Ger's visit.
"Okay, that bastard Wang Yuan bought some crap again!"
As the librarian of Kamar-Taj's vast collection of mysterious books, Wong not only decides who is worthy of reading the Ancient One's personal collection, but also keeps sacred spells from falling into evil hands. Wong is a humble, quiet man who never makes mistakes. If anyone wants to steal the library's collection, they must first pass Wong.
His name is Wang Yuan.
Chinese... As to whether they are Chinese or not, I don't know.
After all, there are Chinese people everywhere.
This guy is the most fashionable of all the mages in Kamar-Taj. After joining Kamar-Taj, most mages basically lose touch with the lives of ordinary people. For them, ordinary material enjoyment is not important at all. If they don't eat, they will die, so they even eat.
They think that studying various kinds of magic is what they should do most, so most of Kamar-Taj don't pay much attention to the lives of ordinary people.
But Wang is different.
This guy is a crazy fan of Taylor Swift, and he will attend every one of Taylor's concerts... although most of the time, he won't buy a ticket... After all, he is a mage, so it is easy for him to enter the concert venue.
In other words, this guy knows his limits. Although he is a fan of Taylor, he has never used magic to get close to Taylor, otherwise the Sorcerer Supreme would definitely have wiped out the family.
Logically speaking, a die-hard fan like him would definitely spend money to buy front-row tickets to the concert...but Wang Yuan had no money.
Kamar-Taj is an organization that doesn't care much about material enjoyment, so money is naturally of no use to them. Most of the time, they are self-sufficient. Their headquarters is located in Kamar-Taj in the Himalayas, where there is an isolated paradise that can produce some of the food and cloth they need.
So they don't need to contact the outside world at all.
So, the so-called money is just waste paper to them.
Wang Yuan could only find ways to make money on his own.
So Wang Yuan embarked on the road of crime...stealing credit cards.
This guy has some hacking skills...By the way, he learned all those skills on the dark web.
This made many traditional wizards dislike the king. After all, he lowered the status of Kamar-Taj.
Of course, Wang Yuan also has principles, he won't go overboard, so his pocket money is just a little bit. And this little pocket money needs to satisfy his hobbies like the fat otaku, including various game consoles, figurines and comic books, and various DVDs.
All of this costs money.
So he had no money to buy concert tickets. Oh, and he would buy every one of Taylor's albums, and he would buy three copies at a time.
One for personal use, one for preaching, and one for collection...it has a very strong flavor.
This guy also wanted to shop online, which resulted in him always writing the address of the Three Holy Temples as the mailing address.
This made the mages stationed at the three holy temples very angry, but they had to clean up his mess.
After all, although Kamar-Taj is isolated from the outside world, it is not completely cut off from the outside world. Many mages have relatives in the outside world and they also need to communicate by mail. One of the responsibilities of the three major temples is to send and receive mail...
Every time they send or receive a package, they need to clear the memory of ordinary people... This is very troublesome. But they have to do it.
"Sooner or later, that bastard's network cable will be unplugged! Who agreed to let this bastard install an Internet cable in Kamar-Taj?"
The old man was very angry.
But when I looked up, I found that there was something wrong with the person who came.
Gel raised his head with a strange smile, then slowly raised the Black Death Sword in his hand!
