Chapter 491: Bring our shadows with us(1/2)
Chicard later learned that Nibelungen could leave the Kingdom of Mist.
"I'm scared." The boy stammered.
Even with the assistance of Xingnao Mint, he still speaks very poorly and needs gestures to assist expression in many places.
Chicard can understand.
People trust familiar places more and are worried about the unfamiliar outside world.
As a new kingdom, the Resurrection Kingdom also spent a lot of time and courage before taking steps to the outside world. What's more, it is an extremely closed place like the Kingdom of Mist.
"When you live outside, you have to have a name."
Zicard said: "You have to choose a name."
The boy was confused about the name.
The Nibelungs are indistinguishable from each other, because eventually they will merge into one, so there is no concept of names, and there is no need to distinguish each other.
Seeing that he didn't understand it at all, Chicard named him Bernie.
"Bernie."
"who?"
"No, my name is Bernie. You have to react and call me "You".
"Bernie?"
"I!"
"now it's right."
"Father!"
"I'm not your father."
"Mother?"
"You have to call me teacher."
"teacher!"
…
The Nibelungs are naturally the darlings of the ice element. Their blue blood is extremely poisonous to most life forms. This tribe will only exist in the Kingdom of Mist, Niflheim.
Young Bernie gestured continuously, his blue eyes flashing with pride: "We are born from the inexhaustible spring, and then flow into various places, sleeping until we wake up."
Chicard asked him: "Why do you fall asleep? Why do you wake up?"
"Sleeping...because I am weak and grow up, I wake up."
Sleeping under the ice will make the Nibelungs grow rapidly. Sleeping allows them to merge into the twelve glaciers of the Kingdom of Mist, absorb the ice elements and toxins in them, and transform from babies into children.
But once you enter the growth stage like Bernie, you will feel an ancient call.
That's instinct, and it's the only way to continue evolving.
The Nibelung roots will approach and merge with each other, just like many tree roots entangled and condensed into one. Their consciousnesses will blend and connect with each other, their bodies will be embedded in each other, and then grow into giants.
The Nibelung as the core will serve as the heart and brain. He is the main body of the giant, and other consciousnesses will become his branches and auxiliaries.
The giant is the adult Nibelung.
The Nibelungs are the juvenile bodies of giants.
This is how the residents of the Land of Mist grow up.
While chewing bighorn sheep ribs, Bernie said vaguely: "The Nibelungs either sleep or wait, that's how it goes."
Knowing this truth, Chicard fell into trouble.
Now it was unsure whether it was right or wrong to take Bernie out.
According to the ancient tradition of the Nibelungs and their physical needs, they must be integrated with each other in order to break away from childhood and grow into a giant standing tall. Otherwise, they will always be in the form of a child.
But growing into a complete giant represents the loss of the Nibelung self and becoming a part of the adult giant. Is this still considered alive?
Chicard couldn't think of an answer.
It asked Bernie: "Do you regret leaving the Country of Fog? If you regret it, I will send you back."
"don't want."
Bernie shook his head and gnawed on the leg of lamb in his hand: "It's delicious here."
That's it.
Bernie left the Country of Fog and came to Sand City, where he stayed in his youth forever.
This boy from Nibelungen became Chicard's assistant. He followed Chicard around, walking through the streets, carrying bags and boxes, and people soon became familiar with this silver-haired boy.
Bernie really likes the coral crystal phase.
When Chikard was writing reports and revising manuscripts, he would carry corals and use discarded projection crystals to try to capture images.
Chicard discovered that Bernie was very talented in photographing crystallographic images, and he truly loved it. So, it allowed the child to use coral crystallographic images for real-life photography.
Bernie learned to use this tool just by watching himself operate the device.
It didn't take long for the crystal phase taken by the boy to be clearer and brighter than that of Chicard. Bernie had a keen insight into freeze-frame images and could always capture those fleeting precious moments.
Such as the smile between lovers, the hungry man taking his first bite of wheat cake, the moment when the drinker shouts with joy, the softening eyes of the war cats when they see the children, the cactus walking alone in the desert.
attitude……
These may be scenes that everyone has seen accidentally or intentionally, but if they are frozen and preserved in crystal, they will have some kind of momentary and eternal power, which can make time stop in the crystal picture.
"I just thought it looked good, so I took the photo."
Bernie said a little embarrassed.
Chicard asked him seriously: "How did you do it?"
"Just take pictures when you see them..."
"I'm talking about the shooting techniques of those crystal phases." The skeleton collector grabbed a thin crystal piece mounted on walnut wood on the table and looked at the boy opposite with his dark eyes.
"Well, that's the use of lenses."
Bernie held the main device of the coral crystal phase in both hands and carefully placed it on the table. He said with a little restraint: "The interior of the crystal phase relies on coral and mirage, but the capture requires crystal lenses, and the imaging also relies on projection crystals...
Polishing of crystal lenses.”
According to Burney's observation, crystal phase imaging is very unstable, sometimes blurry, sometimes dim. In addition to unstable light, another reason is that the clarity is different at different distances.
Because it is polished by hand by craftsmen, each crystal lens has a slightly different curvature.
Bernie's solution was to supplement the lenses.
White air gradually lingered on his fingers, and these ice elements gradually took shape, condensing into a thin and smooth ice sheet.
Bernie fixed it on the crystal lens: "I control the ice element and can constantly adjust the curvature of the ice element lens. In this way, I can find the most suitable distance and angle, and the image formed by the mirage will be clearer."
Chicard fiddled with the coral crystal phase for a while, and the verification results proved that Bernie's operation and understanding were completely correct.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Bernie, your discovery is of great significance and will rewrite the way everyone uses crystal phases. You are a person born with extraordinary talents, but I hope
Can you consider that ordinary people...most people in this world cannot control the ice element, and even ice and snow monsters cannot be as precise as you."
"Ordinary people?"
A puzzled expression appeared on Bernie's face: "Aren't we the only ones who know? Teacher."
"Bernie."
Zicard said: "The foods you like include mutton, beef, grapes, sour raspberries, potatoes...the tribal war chess you usually play, and the books you read "Pava's Bizarre Adventure" and "Crystal Empire"
", the clothes and shoes you are wearing, and this coral crystal phase."
The skeleton collector pointed at the huge red coral.
"They are all the fruits of the labor of ordinary people."
"Everything we have now comes from the protection and divine inspiration given by Lord Yao, but the development of Yao civilization relies on people sharing knowledge and experience with each other."
"Bernie, whether you share it with your original intention or not, I hope you understand that a strong person does not rely on strength to suppress others to express himself. The real strong person is the one who drives everyone forward."
Bernie's eyes were full of surprise: "Why? This is too difficult."
"Why?"
There was a trace of pride on Chikard's bone-cracked face: "This is the Yao people. We have always done this. We always challenge the strong and look forward. Our heroes are passed down from generation to generation, our prophets are all over the world, and our apostles
Always protecting the people, our gods illuminate our progress."
Looking at the young man who seemed to understand, the skeleton collector gently patted his thin shoulder.
"So we are never afraid to embark on any unknown road, and any accident, whether lucky or dangerous, will become our motivation."
…
Five years later, Bernie completed an invention.
