Chapter 622: Chapter 436: The Misaligned Object_1
“Oh?”
Hearing this, Leo Ray, who had just galloped out of the valley checkpoint, tightened the reins and slowed down his horse.
At the same time, he turned his head and signaled the Red Dragon beside him, who was also riding a horse, to continue speaking.
At this time, it was already afternoon, and feeling the scorching heat of the two suns overhead, Leo Ray noticed.
That the white horse beneath Red Dragon seemed very well-behaved. Not only did it move stiffly, it didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
It seemed that even though she had transformed into a human form and no longer possessed a dragon’s aura, Red Dragon still had a strong oppressive presence to ordinary animals.
“Lord, do you know about ‘Dislocated Objects’?” On the other side, Red Dragon awkwardly spurred her horse forward, catching up with him.
It was obvious that although she had learned quickly, this was her first time riding a horse, and she still had some difficulty maintaining her balance.
“Dislocated Objects?”
Upon hearing this unfamiliar term, the curiosity on Leo Ray’s face became even more pronounced, and he said, “Red Dragon, tell me more about it.”
“Yes, my Lord.” Red Dragon slightly nodded towards Leo Ray and began to explain: “The so-called ‘Dislocated Objects’ are, as the name implies,
buildings, wreckage, or other large objects that appear where they should not have.
And this situation cannot be explained by normal logic, as if the space itself was disordered.”
“I see… So you’re saying that the Titan Clan Temple we saw earlier is a ‘Dislocated Object’?”
Leo Ray stroked his chin thoughtfully and asked again.
“That’s right, Lord. Although rare, this is not an isolated case.”
On the other side, Red Dragon flexed her somewhat stiff body on the horse and continued: “When I traveled the continent, I saw many ‘Dislocated Objects’ that were difficult to explain.
For example, a broken giant lighthouse in the desert, underwater city ruins on a snowy mountain peak, and the skeletal remains of a gigantic whale in a primeval forest… each one is difficult to explain clearly.
Moreover, according to my investigation, these ‘Dislocated Objects’ all come from the Era of Blankness, which can be corroborated by the internal documents of my Red Dragon Clan.”
“Good grief, so there are so many amazing things.”
Thoughtfully nodding, Leo Ray murmured, “It seems that these ‘Dislocated Objects’ are definitely related to the Era of Blankness, or some events that occurred during that time.”
“You are right, Lord.”
Red Dragon bowed her head again toward Leo Ray, adjusted her sitting position on the horse, and spoke: “According to the records of my Red Dragon Clan, the occasional appearance of ‘Dislocated Objects’ all over the continent is indeed one of the mysterious effects triggered after the Era of Blankness.”
“It seems that our understanding of the unknown Era of Blankness has progressed a step further.”
While saying this, Leo Ray pulled the reins, guiding his horse to a small country road outside the city where people were scarce.
Meanwhile, he turned his head to the dragon girl who was walking slightly behind, telling her everything he knew about the Era of Blankness.
This included the conclusion that the gods no longer favored anyone due to the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God, and even the speculation of war between the gods and the Ten Thousand Clans on the continent.
Also, besides the Titan Clan Temple they just saw, there was the Ancient Ship, which could almost be regarded as a ‘Dislocated Object’.
At the same time, Leo Ray also mentioned the Elf Ruins near Penelope’s territory, the Barrier Area of the Winged Race in Mystara City, and the details of the meeting with King West in the ancestral resting ground of Dragon’s Lair.
“I didn’t expect my Lord to have experienced so many wonderful adventures.”
In amazement, Red Dragon followed Leo Ray’s movement of pulling the reins, while continuing somewhat shyly: “To be honest, my Lord, my Red Dragon Clan’s understanding of the Era of Blankness is also very limited.
Apart from the ‘Dislocated Objects’ mentioned earlier, everything else is almost the same as what you know.”
Summing up, there are three mysterious effects triggered after the blank era:
First, the Era of Blankness itself has no written records and no species knows what happened, as if everything was deliberately erased.
Second, is the suspicion of gods neglecting their followers due to the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God.
Third, is the situation of ‘Dislocated Objects’ that we mentioned.”
At this point, Red Dragon comforted the trembling horse under her with a gentle pat on the head. The horse shuddered in fright as a result.
Noticing this, Red Dragon smiled awkwardly and continued: “By the way, Lord, just as the young archaeologist said earlier, there were indeed large-scale natural disasters and wars during the Era of Blankness.
And my Lord’s guess about the truth of the Era of Blankness – that it was a war between gods and the Ten Thousand Clans on the continent – is indeed the most reasonable explanation at the moment.
Of course, if it really was like this, why would the gods deliberately hide this history? That would be another story.
However, I believe that things are far from simple as they seem on the surface. After all, the information we have now is very limited and insufficient to deduce the whole picture, let alone provide key evidence for verification.”
