How could it be an astrolabe
It took Roland a long time to recover.
Unlike the core of the fallen devil, this kind of thing generally only appears in the body of pure magic creatures and divine envoys, and ordinary martial artists are not their opponents at all.
If the Martial Daoist Association concentrates its strength and plans carefully, there may be a chance to kill such an enemy, but they will never hand the astrolabe into their hands so casually. It is almost child's play to use courier to send dangerous things that may infect others at any time.
It wasn't sent by the association, so who would it come from
Roland checked the mailing address and phone number. Both were fabricated. The only credible one was the tracking number, which indicated that the item was from the same city. Obviously, the sender did not want him to know his identity.
The problem is that this behavior is also not very smart for the other party. The courier company does not review the true identity of the sender just to reduce costs, and it is really easy to check back. Can you hide your tracks by making up an address? This is almost impossible in modern society. By investigating and monitoring and asking the pick-up staff, the target can usually be locked quickly.
But whether or not to use the power of the association to track down the sender, Roland was rather hesitant.
Judging from the results, the other party obviously knew his details and had a certain kind of goodwill towards him, otherwise he would not have sent such a tricky thing to the package.
In any case, weakening the erosive power for him should always be someone who is on the same front. Since the other party doesn't want to be exposed, it may be better for him to keep the status quo.
Roland rubbed his forehead and decided to think about this headache later.
The more important thing now is dealing with the horoscope in front of you.
He turned his attention back to the box.
If the astrolabe comes from the fissure monster, then just fuse it directly, but if it comes from the angel, doesn't it mean...
No, how is this possible, Roland laughed dumbly. It is an exaggeration to be able to kill the fissure monster. The envoy is not such an easy enemy to deal with. Even Fei Yuhan can only do it hard. It is better not to fantasize about such a beautiful thing.
He put his hand on the astrolabe.
The latter seemed to be reborn from a still time, the blue-white light spot began to rotate again, and the center became brighter and brighter, until a dazzling beam of light burst out to this step, everything was normal, just as he witnessed. The fusion scene has been the same several times.
But in the next second, the world suddenly fell into darkness, and a large amount of consciousness flooded into his mind like a tide, and it brought unbearable pain at the same time!
Roland almost lost consciousness and managed to stabilize his mind under the stormy tide. When everything calmed down, he opened his eyes again and found himself standing in a void. The snowflakes were still there, but by the third experience, the brain seemed to be better at filtering out irrelevant noise.
… well, it really is.
It seems that we must check the identity of the other party now.
He twitched the corners of his mouth and looked around.
Still the cosmic background this time
Because the surrounding is too empty, he can't be sure for a while. Compared with the last episode of consciousness, it was obviously darker this time, as if the stars were hidden.
It took a while for Roland to find a reference point from the sparse snowflakes, a dim light that was about to go out, embedded in the black background as tiny as the tip of a needle.
Following this base point, he found more light clusters.
Seeing this, he was not sure whether he was in the universe.
Because those light clusters are neatly arranged and evenly spaced, it is not like what natural celestial bodies can do.
"I ask you, what is gravity?"
Just as Roland opened his eyes wide to watch, the sudden voice behind him made his hair stand up!
He turned around abruptly, only to notice that there was a gray shadow at some point, and the other party was erratic, as if there was no entity.
Obviously, it wasn't any language he knew, and it was hard to say for sure. Although he didn't understand the reason, he realized that the content mapped in his mind was simplified as if the other party sent out a complex electromagnetic wave, but it was filtered by the filter, leaving only the content that he could understand.
"Are you... asking me?" Roland asked cautiously.
Gravity is the most admired force in this world. Another voice in consciousness replied, and this voice sounded familiar.
Roland couldn't help rolling his eyes.
First, there was a sudden shock, and then he started to ask questions mysteriously. He thought he was also involved in this clip, but he didn't expect that he was still just a bystander.
"Yes, it's universal, solid, and the bigger and bigger..."
"It condenses time and makes nothingness take shape. Only in this way can life take root and civilization can survive."
The voice gradually became full of rhythm, as if singing aloud.
"And the first force that each ethnic group recognizes is gravity. It is both a cradle and a shackle. The history of civilization's progress is a history of struggle to get rid of gravity."
"From leaving the earth and flying into the sky, to going to a farther place, is this not the case."
"Now, it's once again our last obstacle."
The risk cannot be predicted, and I do not recommend implementing a gate plan.
"Every step forward comes with risk, and you should be aware of that."
clear. So my advice hasn't changed since the beginning.
"But you still helped me complete it." The gray shadow flickered twice, "I have been waiting for this plan for thousands of years, now let it start."
Wait, what exactly is the gate plan? What is the last obstacle? Roland felt that he seemed to have missed some key information, but whether he opened his mouth or thought about it, no matter how he asked, the interlocutor did not respond to his call.
… I understand.
"… "
As the voice in his mind fell, the snowflakes became more and more.
According to past experience, the flow of time should speed up as the segment draws to a close, but it is difficult for him to make an accurate judgment without a reference.
Roland saw that the light clusters began to move towards the center spontaneously, but their brightness did not increase but decreased, and soon became pitch black. The rest of the light clusters threw into the darkness like moths to a flame, without stopping at all, and it was impossible to calculate how many of them ended up in it.
Finally, a limit seemed to be broken, and a dazzling red light suddenly bloomed in the darkness, and swept across the whole world in the blink of an eye!
Its speed is much faster than light, and the moment Roland reacts, it has already swept away, and everything has returned to its original appearance.
But Roland knew that the world had changed drastically and changes were taking place!
The first feedback was the gray shadow, which disintegrated like a mist under this light.
Then there were more death messages. They happened in every corner of the darkness. Countless annihilation and withered one after another. Roland could not see this scene with his eyes, but it was reflected in his mind: the city in the distance was on fire, and the surrounding planet was on fire. The tracks fell apart, the fish in the streams stopped swimming, the bugs in the caves decayed into a pool of filth...
Even his body floating in the void began to degenerate and twist.
Whether life is higher or lower, it makes no difference at this moment.
Snowflakes also occupied the entire field of vision at this time.
When everything was over, the scene of the bedroom returned to his eyes. Roland resisted the strong discomfort and moved to the window. The warm afternoon sun shone on him, and the vibrant street below made him grow out of the window. in one breath.
Only then did he realize that his cheeks seemed to be wet.
I probed it with my finger, and it was actually a line of tears.
