In the dark world, you can see layers of abyss surrounding this place like concentric circles in the distance. This is the core of the abyss.
There is no gravity, air, or matter here. Apart from the will of the abyss, only the symbols of the two demon kings, the Blood Sun of the Abyss and the Gate of the Abyss, Talos, can be seen rotating around the will of the abyss.
The Lord of the Abyss, carrying the will of the entire Abyss, presented a huge godly body, and light emanated from his robes, illuminating everything around him.
"This is really... haha... cluck!"
Adnos was floating in the darkness of nothingness, looking up at the masked Lord of the Abyss, and couldn't help but lower his head and laugh. It was just a faint chuckle at first, but then it became unstoppable, and the upper and lower jaws of the bones kept colliding. Makes a crashing sound.
The mythical being uses universal divine language to communicate, and you can clearly feel the bitterness and unwillingness in his laughter.
Adnos suddenly raised his head. Even in the face of this desperate situation, he still did not make any rude move. He calmly faced his ending and asked: "Who are you?"
"Archangel Pharos?"
"Creator?"
"Anthony the Great Sage?"
"Or the Lord of the Abyss?"
Lu Zhiyu looked down at him. The demonic skeleton, which was several kilometers high, looked so small under the projection of the will of the abyss. It was like a giant looking at an ant. The two of them exchanged glances at the core of the abyss. .
"Does it make sense?"
Adnos was stunned and suddenly laughed wildly. The laughter was full of sneer. He didn't know whether he was laughing at himself or at the fate of Maria's world and all life here.
"Hehehe...chucky...hahahahahaha!"
"It turns out... in the end... I'm just a clown!"
"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right!"
"There is no meaning. This is a boring and meaningless world. Everyone is living in an illusory dream, dreaming of boring dreams with no future."
Adnos's smile kept twisting, and his body kept swaying like a puppet on strings, making all kinds of weird and irregular movements, looking crazy and chaotic.
After a long pause, he tremblingly shrugged his shoulders and opened his hands to ask Lu Zhiyu. This action seemed unusually obscene, like a clown or a puppet with weird makeup.
"Then the great and supreme Creator of this world? Is our performance wonderful? Are you happy?"
"Playing with the fate of all of us, looking down at our birth and death from above, it's like the opening of an absurd opera on the stage, dropping us like chess pieces and abandoning us. Do you think this game... is... hahahaha... particularly interesting? "
Lu Zhiyu took off his mask. His tall body that filled the entire core layer of the abyss moved. He saw the light of divine power and the overflowing light bands waving continuously. His slender fingers were comparable to Adnos's body. He took off the mask. The sun-patterned mask revealed the face underneath.
"Do you think it's interesting?"
Adnos looked into Lu Zhiyu's eyes, and the demonic fire jumping in his empty eye sockets gradually subsided.
"It turns out that even the Creator cannot be redeemed!"
Lu Zhiyu asked: "Do you still want to become the Demon King?"
Adnos showed his signature tilted smile and imitated the tone of a landing fish: "Do you find it interesting?"
"Even if you are an ant, even if you are a chess piece, even if you are as humble as a maggot!"
"I, Adnos, also have my own will and pride!"
"I am a star high above, and I will never be a mote of dust looking up at the sky!"
The soul fire on Adnos burned violently, and the pillar of fire reached the sky like the sun, and the light spilled through the plane wall into the surrounding depths of the abyss.
In this flame, Adnos burned everything about himself, his mythological cells, core of consciousness, and memories, without any hesitation or reservation.
Lu Zhiyu watched quietly as Adnos burned his mythical body. The two of them were silent. After that, they could see the flames of death blazing and jumping, and Adnos entered the eternal demise little by little.
At this time, the cry of Adnos's real name came from far away, and was transmitted through the ritual across the endless distance.
Adnos looked at Lu Zhiyu, suddenly turned his head, grabbed the night godhead spinning randomly in the void, opened the door of the abyss, and threw the godhead out.
"Mr. Skeleton!"
"Mr. Skeleton?"
Adnos seemed to hear the soft call on the other side of the door. He showed a rare solemn expression on his face. He closed his jaw and looked at the other side of the abyss door, as if he saw the innocent and romantic face of the girl again. , and a cute and angry pouting expression.
"Alice!"
Adnos suddenly saw again the girl who was hiding in the corner of the palace, trembling as she watched him raise the butcher knife. Her immature face was full of panic and fear, and the sad girl huddled in the corner as if she had lost the whole world. Crying, he killed his father and brother at all costs for the sake of strength, and suddenly his heart softened for a moment.
"Elsa!"
"my little sister!"
Adnos stretched out his hand as if to pick up the crying girl hiding in the corner of the palace in his memory. The bony palms turned into nothingness little by little in the flames, which spread to the whole body little by little. Finally, the whole person followed The flames dissipated together into black ash.
On the pier of the Holima Kingdom, an airship that had been arranged for a long time quietly set off in the dark night. Several priests with green light in their eyes from time to time escorted a girl in black robes to board the airship.
The airship sets off, and its destination is the distant Yala continent, which is the world of mages and elves. According to legend, it is the most beautiful place in the entire Maria world, on the Alan continent, the fairyland paradise that countless civilians yearn for. , where there is a warm and comfortable environment, like spring all year round and dense forests.
Where can you see groups of beautiful elves, their special cities and huge trees of life, groups of mage towers and the leisurely countryside of the mage kingdom.
The airship passed quietly through the clouds of the starry night, and the clouds and mist filled the deck. Standing on the airship felt like walking on the clouds.
With the starry sky and silver moon above her head, and the clouds and faintly visible continents and towns beneath her feet, at this moment, a special witchcraft guidance formation was painted on the deck, and Alice was the one who learned it under the guidance of Adnos. It's been nearly two years since he broke through the seventh level of spiritual power and became an official wizard.
But it was enough to barely destroy the already carved witchcraft guidance array. Alice called out the strange divine name. Although she couldn't figure out what it meant, the direction of the ritual was correct. The power from the abyss imbued the witchcraft. The magical guidance array communicated with distant and unknown powerful existences.
"Mr. Skeleton!"
"Mr. Skeleton!"
"Can you hear me?"
"Mr. Skeleton!"
Alice kept mumbling with her eyes closed, and then she saw a diamond-shaped structure emerging above the guidance array. The mark of Talos, the Lord of the Abyss Gate, came out, outlining the image of its demonic form, and opened a door. It is a door that can accommodate non-material beings such as demons and mythical beings, and the things passing through this door at the moment also belong to this category.
A black magical crystal that looked like silk threads fell on the deck. It was densely painted with runes and spells. It was exactly the three-dimensional pattern of the base of the Night God on the World Tree model.
Inside, you can see the starlight overflowing, powerful fluctuations and light flowing out from Alice's fingertips, dragging out a long tail behind the airship, as if just a simple touch can trigger the powerful power inside. Invoke the internal rules of Maria's world.
Alice grabbed the crystal and felt so excited that she couldn't breathe. She trembled and called Mr. Skull's name, but the door to the abyss had already been closed.
The witchcraft guidance array on the deck also turned into a black smoke and dispersed, as if it had never existed. Alice carefully put away the night godhead and looked into the distance.
She will go to the distant continent of Yala according to Adnos' previous arrangements. It is a place so far away that she cannot imagine, like another world.
