What is order
In the nothingness before the birth of all things, fire was born. This indescribable fire has no form and cannot be described in words. It blooms with the light of creation and spreads the meaning of existence to the entire multiverse today.
The original fire brought light and distinguished order from chaos, and the ashes of fire solidified to produce steel, which is the origin of countless worlds and from which all matter exists.
This is the beginning of the multiverse and all life in it.
However, just as fire will be extinguished and steel will decay, the world will gradually die and return to void and chaos. Even on the corpse of the world destroyed due to accidents, monsters called evil gods will be born. They are the incarnations of chaos. , neither good nor evil, with the goal of returning the entire multiverse to nothingness at the beginning of creation.
What can stop them? No, when the oldest evil god was born, some young worlds had not yet taken shape. Faced with the terrifying existence of these incarnations of disorder, resistance was in vain.
At first, it was true.
The original evil gods ate away at the bodies of the multiverse, constantly turning the world into dead chaos and returning to nothingness - they encountered no resistance, and destroying a world was as easy as eating a piece of cake.
This process lasted for an unknown amount of time, because there was no measurement unit of time at that time, and there was no intelligent life to observe this phenomenon. Countless worlds were completely destroyed during this period of time, and the evil god Their clusters even approached the core of the multiverse, touching the halo of the Prime Fire.
The suffocating darkness swallowed up the light and flooded countless worlds. The evil gods should have continued to move forward like this and extinguished the first fire—until that day.
In a world where life exists, among the savages who only know how to survive by instinct, a certain intelligent individual carefully took out a few sparks from under the ashes of thunder and fire. He regarded them as treasures and carefully preserved them. .
Soon after, blazing torches illuminated the long, lightless night, symbolizing the coming of an era.
This is the first light of wisdom.
From scattered individuals gathered into tribes, and from primitive tribes to city-states, the speed of wisdom accumulation far exceeded the imagination of all existence. City-states united into kingdoms, and kingdoms conquered and merged with each other. The thoughts of different lives condensed to form their unique Culture, the prototype of civilization, was born.
Wood, stone, ore, steel, tools and technology continue to advance, and the sages even understood the essence of power from the phenomena of the world and created the precursors of fighting spirit and magic.
All this only took a few thousand years.
It is too difficult for those evil gods without wisdom to engulf a world with civilized resistance. Pure natural disasters can only temporarily defeat them. In just a few decades for the world and the evil gods, they will again Returning to strength, it has even become more prosperous and powerful than before. The progress of chaos has stopped because the power of order is spreading.
Therefore, order is civilization and life - using wisdom to turn disorder into order, using wisdom to turn iron and stone into tools. This is the meaning of 'fire' and the essence of order!
Just as the ancient proverb says, "Wisdom is immortal and order is eternal", the two complement each other and support each other.
Of course, the advancement of order has also greatly increased the power of the evil god. The ancient evil gods were, at best, some terrifying concepts without wisdom. As the purest form of chaos, apart from bringing down some natural disasters, they could not even affect the operation of the ordered world. This is because there was no life in the wreckage of the world they were born from, let alone Civilizations, like wild beasts, act according to the instinct of chaos.
However, the destruction of a world with life and civilization is different. Born from the wreckage of such a world, there are existences similar to the 'Plague Evil God' and the 'Famine Evil God'. Although they are also the incarnation of chaos, they have life. Unique wisdom.
These evil gods can even imitate those destroyed civilizations, create their own dependents from their corpses, and then use the incomplete power of civilization to attack other worlds.
With the advancement of civilization, evil gods have become more and more terrifying, but it seems that because of this, they cannot invade any region at will like before, but can only invade those worlds that meet the conditions.
—The top floor of the Time Ark.
Surrounded by everyone's gaze, Joshua stood in the center of the magic circle. He stared at the magical runes flashing in front of him, and the shadow of the cyan orb was reflected in his red pupils.
The fact that the Church of the Seven Gods is not afraid of dragon disasters actually does not surprise the warrior, because everything is different from the previous life.
The Dragon Disaster was a year ahead of schedule, and many of their plans were not yet ready. On the contrary, the entire continent had already known about the Five Color Dragon Clan's conspiracy. Even before the Dragon Disaster started, the Northern Empire had lost control due to the actions of its warriors. A suppressive drug that can resist the dragon disease has been developed, which gives the Church of the Seven Gods sufficient confidence to fight against the dragon disaster army.
You must know that the Church of the Seven Gods was besieged at the beginning because most of the elite priests were traveling around the continent to clean up evil and could not return for a while. Now, although it cannot be said that the main force has gathered, several legendary dragons will definitely attack Unable to break through the extremely solid defense of the Holy Mountain.
Because of this, Pope Eagle even had the energy to send a small team of elites to explore the cracks of the abyss.
Different from the evil god, although the abyss also has elements of chaos, its essence is closer to life. Although the demons are all strange and ferocious monsters, they are very different from the relatives of the evil god - they have their own culture, and the demon lord's Although the rule is cruel, it can indeed be called civilization.
Perhaps as a certain mage scholar guessed, the abyss seems to be a deformed existence composed of countless incomplete world fragments. It is between chaos and order and contains elements of destruction.
It is precisely because the abyss has such special characteristics that if you want to enter that kind of place, whether you are an evil god or an ordinary life of order, you need to make some preparations.
Just like the magic circle that Joshua felt at the moment.
[Glow Fire]
[Quality: Legend]
[Explanation: The divine magic circle developed by the Church of the Seven Gods after many years has the ability to expel chaos and spread order]
[The experimental product was completed after many improvements to the environment of the Abyss of Anos. The purification effect on the chaotic areas outside the Abyss of Anos is greatly reduced]
[The power from the sages pulses in the depths of the magic circle. You can feel the breath of the pure white staff. Because the design is imperfect, driving it with all its strength still requires the use of the power of order]
[—This is the fire of order.]
"Igor has found a way to use the power of order without relying on the relics of saints." Feeling the surge of power inside the magic circle, Joshua murmured in a low voice: "He is walking in front of everyone, and he is worthy of being the leader. The number one person in mainland China today.”
There was a hint of admiration in the warrior's tone. If Pope Eagle was born in the ancient times, he would definitely be one of the sages who led human civilization forward. As a magic circle that can open up a shelter in a chaotic environment, the Radiant Fire has epoch-making significance. , it means that humans can no longer wait in vain for the invasion of Chaos before counterattacking, but can freely launch a counterattack.
Although the current one seems to have some flaws, it is harmless. Anyway, according to the time of the previous life, a complete version that only requires positive energy will appear within five years.
Thinking of this, Joshua did not hesitate. He immediately mobilized the power of the azure orb in his body to try to drive this huge magic circle.
However, just when the warrior's will came into contact with the orb located in his heart, this sage's inheritance released a large amount of knowledge and information, which was transmitted to Joshua's mind. Suddenly faced with such an attack, even if it was His will was as strong as iron, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a second or two.
The Azure Orb that once sealed the Guardian was unsealed as the Azure Orb inherited by the Sage during Joshua's continuous efforts to exterminate Chaos. However, this relic of the Sage was not actually open to warriors as everyone thought. own inheritance.
It does give warriors a lot of power. Whether it is killing chaos monsters and converting vitality or soul-burning king form, these are the abilities that the Azure Orb gives Joshua, but they are just abilities. This relic of the sage seems to know that Qiao Xiuya only has fighting in his heart, so he only gives him the strength to fight. It does not mention many secrets from ancient times and information about sages, as if it is just a treasure that contains the power of order.
But now, Azure Orb suddenly changed from normal and took the initiative to pass on a lot of information to the soldiers.
"The meaning of order..."
Feeling the knowledge suddenly conveyed by the Azure Orb, Joshua read it carefully, and then laughed lightly: "No matter what, fighting is definitely inevitable anyway."
Shaking his head, he didn't care about the meaning behind the Azure Orb's abnormal reaction, but focused on mobilizing the power of order and pouring it into the magic circle.
Although he thought about a lot of things, all of this only lasted a few seconds in reality. For the three members of the church who were watching Joshua manipulate the magic circle, the warrior was just stunned for a few seconds, and then began to instill the power of order seriously. , cooperate with the Core Star to completely activate the Glow Fire Array.
This was nothing at first, but after a few seconds, they felt something was wrong.
"Wait! Mr. Joshua, there is no need to infuse so much power of order!"
Sister Saya's perception was sharper than that of the two paladins beside her, so she immediately discovered the source of something amiss - probably because the warrior was a little absent-minded at the moment, so he was desperately trying to instill order into the magic circle for free. Power!
Holy light, they just want Joshua to test whether the magic circle can operate and whether it can be controlled smoothly. This level of order power is enough to drown several high-level demons alive!
"What?"
Joshua also realized that something was wrong at this time. In the final analysis, he was still affected by the information about the meaning of order in the Azure Orb. When the power of order was instilled, various evil gods appeared in the warrior's mind. Shadow, and then subconsciously used all his strength.
Extremely powerful.
There is a world of difference between the ultimate power and the gold-level power. Moreover, when Joshua returned from the world of Ilgona, the power of order in the Azure Orb had already been fully charged due to the battle with the evil god. At this moment, he was using all his strength. The indoctrination lasted for almost ten seconds. For a moment, I didn't know how much power I had used. The development of the matter was suddenly out of my control.
"Stop it!"
At this moment, Robzek and Loranda also reacted in the same way. The two people were suddenly shocked and covered in cold sweat. The magic circle on the Time Ship was personally arranged by Pope Eagle. The amplitude of the power could only be described as unbelievable. To describe it, usually just the energy spilled from the core star can be used by the entire ark, not to mention the power poured into it by the warriors at this moment
The two paladins wanted to step forward to stop them, but it was already too late. A dazzling flash of light burst out from the magic circle, and the surging power of order pushed them back several steps in an instant. , Loranda was almost defenseless, and Robzek was able to stand firm after taking a few steps back, but he was unable to move forward.
In the cabin of the Ark Time, the elf boy who was lying quietly on the bed with his eyes closed was about to fall asleep. However, with a loud bang, the almost substantial power of order ignored all material obstructions and emerged from the entire ship. Sweeping through the body, it caused all the staff on the Ark to stop their work in shock, and also made a giant beast swimming under the ship shudder. In addition, it made Hill Waking up from his half-asleep state, he suddenly sat up from the bed and looked around in confusion: "What?! So scary?!"
Just when he asked this question, a silver beam of light, centered on the Time Signal, penetrated straight into the sky. It tore through the thick clouds over the Abyss of Anos and turned half of the sky into white. In addition, it also triggered the power of chaos that was gathering momentum in advance.
The sea area of Anos Abyss, which is said to have never-ending storms, is almost impossible to have wind and waves. Even if there is, it is to accumulate strength for a bigger storm. The windless period predicted by Hill is exactly the same. So, according to his calculations, this windless period will probably last for about three days, and then there will be a huge storm that far exceeds the previous ones. But now, because of Joshua, the terrifying order fluctuations have spread. There was a conflict with the abyssal atmosphere permeating the sea area. Under the huge energy changes, the storm was triggered in advance.
Suddenly, lightning flashed and thundered in mid-air, and purple-green lightning shuttled through layers of cumulus clouds like spider webs. A huge cyclone was slowly taking shape in the sea not far away, accompanied by increasingly turbulent waves, downpours, and The strong wind came together, and the originally clear sea and sky became blurred due to rain in an instant, as if the whole world was covered with dark paint.
"Sister Saya... what's going on?"
The nun was originally standing on one side of the magic circle, using a crystal shield to resist the power of order that was coming like a tide, but she suddenly heard a timid voice coming from behind her, and Saya subconsciously turned her head to look. I went and saw a petite girl with long gray hair.
This girl has a beautiful appearance and looks to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. Even after seeing the nun, the nervous expression on her face did not fade away. She glanced at the light pillar of order that seemed to be materialized with some fear, and then gently He grabbed the back of the nun's robe and said in a low voice: "I just finished my experiment. I originally wanted to see you, sister, but I was shocked by this power..."
The girl's voice was soft, not to mention she looked like she was about to cry out of fear, and her voice was intermittent. When Saya saw this, she could only turn her head, hold the girl in her arms and comfort her: "It's okay, Nono, it's just Just an insignificant little accident..."
After hearing this, the girl named Nono blinked her big eyes. She subconsciously glanced at the surging silver light pillar that was stirring the entire sky, and her blue pupils showed doubts.
Seeing the girl's expression, the nun's face was also very complicated. She turned her head and looked at the light pillar that continued to release the power of order towards the sky. She could only sigh and said: "It's actually quite serious... but don't worry. , we can solve it—Nonuo, please go back to the laboratory first, and I will find you later."
"Oh well."
Nodding obediently, the girl turned her head and walked towards the passage leading to the interior of the ark. However, before entering the ark, Nono still turned her head and looked at the beam of light that made her feel a little scared, and whispered to herself He said: "Is he another extremely powerful person?"
When she said this, her expression seemed a little mature: "The church really has a profound foundation, and it actually invited a strong person of this level..."
It was not just the people on the ark who were frightened by this beam of light.
Over the distant sea, among the endless flowing clouds.
A huge low-pressure cyclone was forming not far away. These rain clouds were attracted by that force, so the howling wind seemed to be a torrent in the sky, driving the thick clouds in that direction.
And a huge existence is riding on this strong wind, flying silently. Its breath is completely obscured by the wind and clouds, and even with the use of advanced magical detection, it is difficult to detect the trace.
The black dragon Mandagaur is heading towards the Abyss of Anos. Except for a small part of the facial features and brain on its head, almost its entire body has turned into a black crystal-like form. This form makes The black dragon can freely change the structure of its body, reduce wind resistance, and greatly reduce the possibility of being detected by spells.
Killing his former apprentice was not a big deal for the black dragon, which originally belonged to the evil camp. However, even Mandargar was unwilling to bear the severe blame of the Presbyterian Council, so after a little preparation, it immediately Head to the far sea, prepare to find a giant ocean beast, absorb its life force to complete your own form transformation, and then go to the Abyss of Anos to guard the cracks in the abyss.
But for some unknown reason, all the sea beasts near the Abyss of Anos either entered the interior of the sea, or they all ran to other sea areas thousands of miles away. This forced Mandargar to go to the Abyss of Anos to find prey. .
It was flying peacefully, but suddenly, a thunderous rumble came from the distance, which immediately made the black dragon become more vigilant.
But there was no point in being vigilant. I saw a silver-white beam of light in the distance rising from the ground straight into the sky. It broke through the clouds with a 'bang' sound, shaking the clouds in half of the sky like water waves, and there were layers of waves. Ripples, at the same time, the incredible power of order swept across, and the breath of the abyss reacted with it, blooming dense thunder in the clouds.
As an old black dragon, Mandargar had long been prepared for battle, but the sudden thunderstorm was beyond its expectation. In desperation, it could only temporarily escape from the clouds and quickly dive into the sea, but because the thunder was too strong There were too many. The black dragon was accidentally hit by a purple lightning in its wings, causing it to fall into the water in an incorrect position and causing a huge splash.
"what on earth is it!?"
Slowly rising from the sea, Mandagal looked at the area where the light beam rose in the distance with an angry and incomprehensible face. It was located in the middle of the Abyss of Anos and was about to enter the core area. It was cautious and disgusted. Feeling the power of order coming from the air, he gritted his teeth and said: "The Church of the Seven Gods... it is indeed you!"
"Wait, when I completely complete the form transformation, I will turn you all into my living crystal nourishment!"
As it spoke, it seemed to sense something, and its originally angry expression suddenly calmed down a lot. Mandargar's ferocious dragon face twisted slightly, revealing a sneer for a giant dragon: "It seems that I don't need to go, those giants Even beasts hate this kind of light.”
At the same time, under the sea of Anos Abyss.
A huge shadow was swimming quickly towards the Time Ship.
