Chapter 945: Ancient Name "Ovno"
Chapter 945: Ancient Name "Ovno"
At this moment, in a room of the Knights of Favonius, Barbara was kneeling quietly on the ground.
As Mond's condition gradually improved, her mental state also improved significantly.
However, even though the truth was revealed, she still stubbornly believed that the reason Mondstadt could become better was entirely due to the blessing of the God of Wind!
Even when her own sister Jean Gunnhild told her in person that the snowstorm in Mond was actually caused by the Abyss Cult and that it was Lady Alice who ultimately solved the problem, Barbara did not waver in her belief.
In order to maintain her beliefs, she has begun to ignore the facts!
At this moment, Barbara closed her eyes, knelt on her knees, crossed her fingers and clasped them tightly in front of her chest, and prayed silently to the God of Wind in an extremely pious manner.
In terms of piety, Barbara would say she is second, and no one in Mondstadt dares to claim to be first.
Her loyalty to her faith and her determination to sacrifice her life for it were no less than those of another martyr, Kujo Sara.
At this moment, Barbara slowly recited her prayer to the God of Wind.
"Lord Barbatos, your lovingkindness endures forever, and your good name endures through all generations."
"Your most loyal believer 'Barbara' prays to you. Thank you for saving Mondstadt. The prayer is over. Let the wind lead you!" Along with the devout prayer, Barbara slowly opened her eyes.
This was not the first time she had performed such a prayer. Countless repetitions made her very familiar with the ritual.
Every prayer was like a deep conversation with the faith in her heart, making her more convinced of the greatness of the God of Wind.
However, just as she was about to get up and leave, a mysterious whisper suddenly sounded in her ears.
"Are you worshipping the gods in your heart or the desires in your heart?"
The voice was cold and eerie, making people shudder.
Barbara was startled. She looked around alertly and asked loudly, "Who? Who's talking?"
However, there was silence all around, and no other sound except her own breathing.
Barbara's heartbeat began to speed up, and an inexplicable fear surged in her heart.
Suddenly, she felt as if she had drunk dozens of glasses of high-concentration liquor in one breath, and a strong feeling of dizziness came over her.
"Oh, my head feels so dizzy..." Barbara groaned in pain, and her body shook involuntarily.
She wanted to hold onto something beside her, but found that she had completely lost control of her hands.
Then, her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground with a thump, and then she knew nothing...
……
After an unknown amount of time, Barbara finally regained some consciousness. She opened her eyes with difficulty and found herself in an unfamiliar environment.
This is a strange little house. The light inside is extremely dim. There are only a few candles burning weakly, emitting a dark red light.
These candles were placed in every corner of the room, lighting up the entire room in an eerie way.
Barbara's eyes slowly swept across the tables, chairs, and benches in the room, as well as the oil painting in front of her.
The faces of the people in the photos were blurry and her specific appearance could not be seen clearly, but they gave Barbara a creepy feeling.
Looking at the unfamiliar environment, Barbara was shaking with fear and clenched her hands tightly together.
"Where...where am I? Shouldn't I be in the Knights?"
Just then, Barbara saw herself in the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room.
Behind myself in the mirror stood a man wearing a tall black hat.
Her eyes suddenly widened, her body involuntarily took a step back, and an expression of astonishment appeared on her face.
"Oh, hello, beautiful lady." The man in the top hat said in a friendly tone.
Barbara turned around and looked at the mysterious man standing behind her. She asked in horror, "Where am I? What is this place?"
The man in the tall hat said in a friendly tone, "I sense the confusion in your heart, and I think you need some guidance."
When Barbara heard the word "confused", she was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She shouted excitedly: "I am not confused. I believe that Lord Barbatos is a great god! The rumors in Mondstadt are all false!
The man in the top hat looked at the excited Barbara and asked with interest, "I didn't tell you the confusion in your heart, why are you so anxious to admit it?"
Barbara bit her lip and shouted at the top of her lungs, "I'm not confused!"
The flattering man did not give Barbara time to think and continued to point out the "lies" she had made up to protect her own heart.
"You are just using lies to defend your belief, because you have given everything for it. To deny it is to deny yourself."
Barbara shook her head stubbornly, her face flushed red, and she shouted palely: "No, I, I believe in Lord Barbatos!"
The man in the top hat slowly walked behind Barbara and gently covered her eyes with his hands.
Barbara's eyes went dark and she felt an absolute fear in her heart.
She tried desperately to pry open the devil's hands that were covering her eyes, and her fingers tightly grasped the other's wrists, but she found that her strength was not enough to shake him at all.
The voice of the man in the flattering hat sounded in her ears, with a tone of compassion.
"The truth is right in front of you, but you turn a blind eye to it. You are a pitiful lamb."
Barbara was horrified, her tears streaming down her cheeks, soaking the top hat man's hands.
"I don't know what you are talking about. Lord Fengshen is not what others say. Shao Yun is a devil and he is lying!"
The man in the top hat said softly before removing his hands from Barbara's eyes: "You need to open your eyes to see the truth!"
……
In a room of the Knights of Favonius, Barbara closed her eyes and curled up on the ground.
After an unknown amount of time, her eyes suddenly opened in horror and she let out an ear-piercing scream!
"what!!!"
She rolled and crawled to the corner of the room, hugging her legs tightly.
When Barbara woke up, her forehead was covered with sweat. It was so horrible. What kind of horrible nightmare was this?
After confirming that she was surrounded by the Knights, Barbara calmed down a little.
"Did I just faint?"
Barbara murmured softly, recalling everything she had just seen in the dream. The words that the mysterious man said to her were still echoing in her ears.
"The truth is right before my eyes. I can see it as long as I open my eyes..."
But, does she really dare to see the truth?
Barbara didn't dare to face the so-called truth. She was afraid that everything she knew was true.
"No, Lord Barbatos, none of this is true! You will tell me yourself that those rumors are false, right!"
As she spoke, Barbara's tears rolled down her cheeks and dripped onto the ground.
……
At the same time, Nata.
After Sitrali and Mavica's consciousness returned from the Kingdom of the Night God, Sinoning also cleaned up the dust in the workshop.
After returning to the workshop, Sitrali immediately told Sinoning the plan of adjusting the memory order that the devil had mentioned.
Xinoning followed this method, and sure enough, a miracle happened!
This time, there were no problems with the obsidian that served as the carrier of the ancient name.
The memory on the right side of the Holy Night Journey slowly wrapped around the surface of the obsidian, forming a solid protective film.
The memory on the left side is tightly attached to the outside of the protective membrane and cannot penetrate into it.
However, in this process, Sinoning was more or less affected by the things in her memories, which consumed her energy and interfered with her consciousness.
Especially when the story of the pattern of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse was attached to the obsidian, the impact was even more unbearable for her.
The aura emitted from it made his internal organs feel numb.
Mavica stayed by her side the whole time, releasing a powerful pressure to protect Xinoning.
Without Mavica's protection, Xinoning's internal organs would probably have been injured by the impact.
When all the memories in the Holy Night Journey were attached to the obsidian, Sinoning looked at the ancient name in his hand with a sense of relief, as if he had completed a difficult task.
She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said, "Ahem... it's finally built... I thought I was going to die..."
Xitrali carefully took the obsidian with the memory attached, felt the powerful force contained in it, and said softly: "Okay, the most difficult process is over."
Xinoning nodded tiredly. Her body had reached its limit at this moment.
“The next step is to register Mr. Shao Yun’s ancient name in the Kingdom of Night God…” After saying that, Xinoning leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
Xitela looked at Sinoning with concern and said gently, "Sinoning, you should have a good rest first. I will take care of this matter."
Sinoning opened his eyes with difficulty and gave Xitlari a forced smile.
"Granny Sitrali, I'll leave this matter to you. I need to rest for a while, I feel like I'm dying..."
Xitrali nodded, and she turned to Mavica and said, "Mavica, let's go."
Then, Mavica followed Sitrali silently, and the two of them walked out of the room together.
……
Afterwards, Sitrali brought Mavica to the outside of the Echo Sons tribe.
The ceremony is presided over by Xitlal, who sends the ancient name with memories attached to it to the Kingdom of the Night God, and lets the Night God grant the name.
By the way, check the connection between Shao Yun’s ancient name and the earth veins.
(It is worth mentioning that the souls outside the Kingdom of Night God who had not been leaked gathered here... because Shao Yun's ancient name was somewhat special.)
Finally, the Night God bestowed a name, and three ancient and mysterious Nata characters automatically emerged on the originally dark obsidian ancient name.
Looking at the ancient name returning from the veins of the Kingdom of the Night God, Xitlal was so excited that her voice trembled.
"Gu Ming's name appeared, it was successful!"
Mavica, who was standing by, came forward curiously and asked anxiously, "What is Mr. Shao Yun's ancient name?"
Xitlari quickly took over the ancient name belonging to Shao Yun, carefully looked at the words above, and interpreted them.
"Hmm... let me see... if this is pronounced in Nata, it should be 'Ufunuo'... the transliterated name is 'Ofunuo'?"
Mavica was very unfamiliar with this name. She blinked and asked curiously, "Does this name have any special meaning?"
With starlight emanating from her eyes, Xitlari began to look into Shao Yun's ancient name, wondering if she could learn some information left by the Night God from it.
"If explained in Teyvat's common language, the meaning of this name would probably be 'Apocalypse' or 'Revelation', right?"
"Apocalypse?" When Mavica heard the word, some things during the Abyss War immediately emerged in her mind.
She thought of the four powerful apocalypse horses that Shao Yun had once tamed.
"Apocalypse? I remember Shao Yun mentioned something about Apocalypse before..."
