Priest felt like he was trapped in a huge and incredible dream.
When the six thousand years of information in the Akrafa hub turned into an endless flow of information, coming at a rapid rate that ordinary gold experts could never withstand, Priest, who seemed to be panicking, had actually already prepared it. Prepare.
In the final analysis, it is just a mental shock. As the captain of the alien exploration team, how could Priest not prepare countermeasures in this regard when exploring the ruins of a voice with a heart? But even though he was prepared in advance, he didn't expect the information impact to come so quickly, so suddenly, and so hugely.
Time that is enough to cause the destruction and rebirth of a civilization flies by in the interplay of light and shadow. The alternating light of light and dark is mixed with endless pictures and videos flowing like a river. Priest is a person in the torrent of historical information that is enough to wash away people into idiots. Struggling to support.
"It's not... stronger than the teacher's pressure!"
It can be seen that countless blood spots exploded inside Priest's brain in reality, a large number of capillaries were broken, and the brain tissue was destroyed by an almost substantial mental shock. However, because of the existence of the repairing light beam, no matter how serious the injury he suffered , he can fully recover in the next second.
A miraculous thing that can bring the dead back to life is so unreasonable.
Vaguely, Priest could see the memories that were gradually played back, from recent times to ancient times.
The sun above our heads rises in the west and sets in the east, dragging an orange arc track. Time is read upward in units of hundreds of years, surging like a raging river, but Priest's soul, which is far tougher than ordinary gold, can swim against the current. Go up, and go back to the past.
He saw the sunset and the moon rising, he saw the clouds disperse and the wind surge, he saw a speeding car suddenly fly past the sky, activating the hub's long-dormant automatic orientation protocol, he saw hundreds of years of time speeding through the stagnant environment again and again. Passed away, and the originally thick rock shell of the hub gradually became thinner, the forest outside gradually became sparse, and the moon in the sky became smaller and smaller, getting further and further away. Priest was even surprised to find that the Akrafa hub was hundreds of years old. Years ago, the mountain was not even what it is today. Its silver shell was not covered by rocks, but it still emitted a bright and bright light.
Until that moment... The rocks rose up as if alive, covering huge hubs one after another on the earth, adding mountains to this originally flat world.
Priest saw who sealed the many hubs and turned them into towering mountains - he saw that in this last unknown world, perhaps they were the last batch of civilized ancients.
Civilization is not human beings. As a collection of intelligent life, civilization is far longer than a single individual. Most of the time, it will maintain a young and vibrant form, constantly moving forward, as bright and brilliant as the morning light in the sky. .
But can civilization really be immortal and unchangeable, and can it always maintain its hopeful form, as vibrant as the morning light
The answer is of course no. Civilizations will also age, decay, and slowly change from strong to weak, just like the sun will go out, and the morning light will eventually turn into the setting sun. Vibrant civilizations will fade away in various situations. The environment becomes corrupted, lifeless, and individuals who were once full of desire to explore will also indulge in enjoyment and waste, gnawing away at the foundation of civilization like moths.
The most important thing is that civilization, in the final analysis, needs people to maintain it. If even the most basic number of people cannot be satisfied, then no matter how nice the words are, regression and decline are inevitable facts.
Just like what Priest saw now in his vision thousands of years ago.
In front of the Akrafa hub, under the bright magic light, a small group of barely covered humans and another small group of elves stood at the foot of this silver man-made mountain, staring at the giant building in front of them with complicated eyes.
"We have lost 80% of the inherited memories... Due to the decay of the books and the invasion of the bloodline foundation by the erosion of chaos, there is no longer a Ultimate Level inheritance in the place where we live."
The clothes could be considered to have a hint of modern people. The leader of the human race said in a hoarse voice: "I am probably the last ultimate human being in this world - and I have forgotten how I made a breakthrough back then."
"Books will decay, memories will be confused, even if the stone tablet is a mountain, it cannot engrave one percent of our inheritance. We use the mother tree to store knowledge and barely maintain our collective existence, but this is just drinking poison to quench our thirst... If one day, the mother tree will also If it is eroded, then we elves will be beyond redemption."
On the other side, a leader elf who looked familiar to Priest, who was somewhat similar to Sur and the Deer Crown Elf, nodded slightly and replied seriously: "But our survival does not matter - the energy of life stored in the Akrafa hub Seeds and the 'Rebirth Plan' are things that will never tolerate any mistakes!"
"Mycroft cannot be observed... Our hometown may have been destroyed long ago, and we may be the last shining survivors in this galaxy. Because of this."
At this point, all the remaining humans raised their heads. They all stared at the huge Akrafa hub in front of them, and the leader of the Ultimate Level said in a deep voice: "We must not continue to take shelter in Akrafa. And other time and space hubs.”
The elves were silent, while the humans were still whispering to themselves.
"If it weren't for the Hub's orderly stance that could delay the invasion of Chaos, we might have been eroded by the remaining Chaos power in this land long ago, but this would consume too much of the Hub's energy... The transformation process of 'that existence' is measured in thousands of years , if the hub's suppression module shuts down due to lack of energy in the middle of the conversion, then 'that being' may be resurrected at any time."
"If it is resurrected, then everything will be over. The sacrifices of the nine leaders and the reason why we persist until now will become a joke, and the future of all Mycroft races will sink into darkness... But if the rebirth plan succeeds,' that Existence will be transformed into a perfect and flawless world like heaven... At that time, the life blood backup stored in the hub will be continuously copied and released into this world. They are our successors, and the hub will protect them. Teach them, let them inherit everything from us and become the new 'Glorious Civilization'!"
"… so what."
The elf asked in a low voice.
"We should destroy ourselves as soon as possible, then shut down the hub's active defense system and only let the suppression module, detection system and information collection module work."
The human said calmly: "Don't look at me with that look. I have not been eroded by weakness. This is the most rational idea. Our existence today is just a waste of the hub's precious energy. We are no longer a civilization - we We are just a group of poor people isolated at the end of the world's galaxy by anomalies of time and space. Our deaths are not important, the most important thing is the 'future'!"
"If you die, let alone the future, even the present will cease to exist."
The elf retorted, but after a moment of silence, he still shook his head helplessly: "...Okay, I admit that you are right. But I feel that self-destruction is not the only option."
Priest tried his best to remember the entire discussion in his mind - but he couldn't. Only one-third of the six thousand years of history had passed. Even with his brain bursting with blood, Can't remember more.
Time moves quickly again.
And then, there are no more detailed records of events, but only fleeting fragments.
Priest saw that as the powerful magic shook the world, the rock formations of the continent rose up with thunderous roars, sealing the huge silver buildings one after another. He saw the bright and bright lights disappear one after another. , but this is not self-destruction, but a sacrifice for a longer future.
Time goes back like a dream, and the elves who have been so weak that they can only cover themselves with grass blades begin to appear individuals wearing armor and even magic equipment. Not only that, the ruins reverse one by one, turning into solid towns again like a video rewind. and houses.
Priest saw that thousands of years ago, in this now peaceful and disgusting world, there were still endless dangers. One after another, towns of humans, elves, and even dwarves resisted the invasion of chaos falling from the sky. They Fighting among the primeval forests, chasing on the desolate grasslands, the tribes that had not lost much of their inheritance at that time fought with many monsters in the sky, underground, and on the ground, and purified them into harmless fly ash.
Everything is extremely strange - as history continues to go backwards, the times become older and older, but the equipment and civilization of humans, elves and other races are becoming more and more advanced, and the monsters appearing in the sky and underground are becoming more and more powerful - enough There are huge core-eating worms that can penetrate deep into the earth's core like mountains, chaotic star butterflies that can travel through the void of the atmosphere, and chaotic star butterflies that can stir up typhoons with their wings. One after another, terrifying existences that make Priest take a breath are like a revolving lantern. Generally appear.
And all these monsters died under the suppression of void battleships and major hubs.
Until the end—the end of history, six thousand seven hundred years ago.
Time seems to be frozen here.
For a moment, Priest felt like he didn't see anything.
It was pitch black all around, without the sun, stars, or any light source. The chaotic darkness was rolling in the void, like a mist that would never dissipate... At this moment, Priest's mind suddenly went blank. What was he talking about? I can't even remember it, as if I didn't remember anything in the first place, and I was so ignorant in the first place.
And at this moment, Priest suddenly felt very familiar.
This feeling of forgetfulness seems to be very familiar to the feeling that he seemed to remember something after dreaming in the past few days, but forgot everything.
"There is something... eroding my memory..." He finally gathered a little bit of consciousness in the dark fog, but before Priest had time to think about what he had forgotten, his eyes suddenly became blank: "Strange, who am I?"
And just when Priest seemed to be completely swallowed up by the fog in the historical data of Akrafa hub.
In the darkness, a silver star suddenly lit up.
And in the next moment, the silver star skyrocketed and turned into a blazing beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth, tearing through the darkness like a sharp sword and sweeping away the fog.
At this moment, Priest's thinking immediately returned to normal, and his confused eyes suddenly regained focus, obviously recalling his own memories - but before the young warrior could become afraid of the strange black mist before, , he suddenly realized that he was now in the void, and behind him was a hazy, silvery, black, indescribable, indescribable chaotic star.
Silver and black light flashed at the same time, and the holy and terrifying stars kept releasing twisted and weird mist. You could see that it suddenly erupted into thousands of distorted time and space, and energy arcs like tentacles lashed the void. Each light The arc tentacles are comparable to mountains, enough to sink the continent.
But nine blazing silver beams intertwined into a giant net, completely suppressing the stars. The terrifying light arc tentacles were easily torn and cut off, turning into silver light spots and dissipating.
Priest looked at this scene in shock. This was a scene that he, a young Jin, had never seen before. Even the battle between Black Mist and the teacher in World No. 1 did not seem to be like this weird war. of shock.
After swallowing his saliva, Priest turned his head and looked at the source of the beam, and then he was stunned on the spot -
What he saw were nine huge void battleships made of silver metal.
In fact, just this kind of scene would not surprise Priest. Unlike the chaotic stars that he had never seen before, he had already seen civilization creations that were much more shocking than this void battleship, or the body of a strong man. The posture... What really made Priest stunned on the spot was the shape of the bow of one of the nine battleships.
Those are three U-shaped bulges... They are exactly the same shape as the Akrafa hub.
"Finally I caught you."
In the void, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the heart. Her voice was cold and stern, like a high-ranking queen. Priest could easily tell that this was the prototype of the voice at the heart of Accra Fajun.
And this voice, in an almost gritted tone, said word by word: "Weaken the Evil God!"
…
in reality.
A large string of black gas suddenly appeared around Priest's brain - actually, using Qi to describe it is a bit loose. Compared to a simple mist, it is more like a strange mass that distorts light and weakens the spectrum. strength.
As soon as this power appeared, it seemed to want to center on Priest's brain and spread to other places... But the actions of the strange power fell into a rather embarrassing situation from the beginning.
Because it is surrounded by pure steel power coming from Joshua.
It seemed that he was a little overwhelmed by the sudden appearance of the black energy. The repair light beam flickered for a while, but soon it began to operate at full capacity, performing the most complete 'treatment'.
Crack-ssssssssss! ! !
Following a series of weird sounds, the twisted strange power suddenly dissipated into nothingness. Even this ferocious, violent, full of devouring desire, extremely difficult to control and extremely dangerous steel power even followed the source of this strange power. Towards the erosion of the past!
boom!
The ground shook.
The five people who were still waiting for Priest to come out around the Akrafa Hub suddenly felt the earth shake violently.
The rocks are cracked, the sea of trees is undulating, and the originally flat soil suddenly rises into countless hills. The layer of crumbling rocks that originally covered the outside of the Akrafa hub has completely fallen off.
"What, what's going on?!"
The knight who was about to climb up the tree to look at the surrounding situation was thrown off the treetop by the shock. He lay on the ground and said inexplicably: "Why is there a sudden earthquake here? Could it be that the captain has caused some big trouble in the hub?" Can’t do it?”
The others said nothing, obviously agreeing with it.
But this time, it was true that everyone wrongly blamed Priest - if they were high in the sky now, they would be able to see that it was not just the Akrafa Hub that suddenly shook, but the entire surface of the world. Ups and downs, super shocks that stretch for thousands of miles. In those areas where there is no mother tree of life and hub suppression, the surface of the earth is constantly rising and retracting, as if... as if there is something crawling deep in the earth. .
At the same time, an invisible ripple, an indescribable torrent of information that only the Ultimate Mind, or even the Legend, could perceive, was moving toward him with pain, anger, and a gradually awakening momentum. Outside this closed world, the entire world spreads to the other side of the galaxy.
One side of the world's galaxy.
The wandering Shepherd World Fleet suddenly stopped moving.
Countless giant beasts of the void that were absorbing matter from various worlds stopped their instinctive swallowing and stayed in place, motionless.
Some of these worlds are lifeless and dead worlds, some are primitive worlds with primitive life but no civilization, and one or two are living worlds with intelligent creatures, but they have not developed wisdom and gave birth to civilization... Void The giant beasts are not picky, nor do they choose. They just pry open the worlds at will, devouring the quality of the world... At the same time, they also release their own offspring into the world, leaving behind their own seeds.
Like a beetle opening a small opening in an egg, sucking out the egg white, and then placing its own eggs in the uneaten shell.
As for whether there are lives in the world being swallowed, whether these lives will be destroyed by their own actions, whether they will be devoured by the giant void beasts in their infancy... that is not their business.
They don't care.
The eight-legged fungus doesn't care either.
In the King's Court of the Shepherds, the King of the Sky Realm who rushed over once again bowed respectfully in front of the twisted spiritual void - he did not need to ask questions, because the matter of all the giant void beasts stopping their actions was too huge, and the benevolent giant The Khan would take it upon himself to explain all this to them, the shepherds.
Sure enough, an obvious sound came from the spiritual void.
“Kumozinda…”
This time, the Great Khan's voice was no longer as dull and slow as before, as if he was talking in a dream. His voice became serious and solemn, and was extremely solemn: "I feel the fluctuations of the World Eater."
As the king who shepherds the colonies of bacteria and giant beasts on behalf of the Great Khan, Kumosinda has witnessed countless horrific void disasters. It has witnessed the collision between worlds, and witnessed void storms sweeping half of the world's galaxies. It originally He thought he had long forgotten what it meant to be at a loss, but the moment he heard the word 'World Eater', the King of the Sky Realm's mind fell into a blank for a moment.
"There are... World Eaters here too?!"
Kumosinda originally wanted to say something more, but the words of the Great Khan interrupted its self-talk: "Of course there is - there is no pure land in the multiverse, not to mention, this is a lost galaxy."
"This was originally the 'great battlefield' where the ancient ancestral civilizations fought against countless World Eaters... It is outside the normal multiverse and is blocked by countless empty material vacuum zones. Only the distorted starlight can prove its existence. exist."
The voice of the Great Khan was full of echoes. It seemed to be saying hundreds or thousands of completely different words at the same time. The countless echoes were intertwined together, turning into a mental shock that made Kumosinda look painful. And in the brief echo, you can hear the slightly cold voice of the Great Khan.
"Turn back, Kumosinda, pass on my order, the fleet turns back, we go to the place where the World Eater's wave came from."
As the King of Sky Realm trembled in shock, the Great Khan said: "That is a weak World Eater, a remnant that has just escaped from the seal of the ancestral civilization - we must destroy it, if even it cannot be destroyed. "
Speaking of this, Kumosinda felt as if there was a cold existence staring at his cap: "Even if the Shepherd escapes to the end of the multiverse and lingers until the end of all things, he will never return. The possibility of hometown.”
…
"I sensed chaotic fluctuations."
Joshua, who had just teleported to the edge of the world's galaxy, said this.
"I felt it too."
On the side, Galan Nord and the somewhat depressed Nostradamus nodded, because the obvious fluctuations of chaos were coming from not far away.
Of course, this is not far. It is just the distance between worlds compared to the legendary powerhouse. It is not surprising that ordinary void battleships take several years and decades to travel through time. Even Mycroft's high-speed void battleship wants to It also takes seven or eight days to travel to and from several worlds that are very close to each other. If the distance is slightly larger, the travel time will also be calculated in years.
But on the giant cocoon of the silver planet, Joshua shook his head: "I'm not talking about this wave, it's the wave coming from my steel power... the wave coming from the repairing light pillar."
Needless to say, even Joshua couldn't figure out for a moment whether it was the chaotic fluctuations he and the Repair Light Pillar sensed that were the first.
"Joshua, this level of chaotic fluctuations is several times stronger than the Void Mother Beast we killed back then... or even far more!"
Because of all his efforts, he cooperated with the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrificial Site to transport Joshua's body, which was comparable to a world. Even Nostradamus, a legendary powerhouse, looked like he was about to collapse at this time, but even so, he Still keeping his spirits up, he reminded the warrior: "Either he is a member of the legendary evil god's family, or... he is a real evil god!"
However, is the evil god so weak? Nostradamus himself was actually a little confused, because although the chaotic fluctuations coming from the distance were strong, they were slightly inferior to the black mist mother body. In short, they were not as strong as everyone imagined.
On the side, the natural teacher frowned. She sensed the fluctuations in the distance, and then reminded in a deep voice: "It is getting stronger... Don't waste time, it is recovering quickly at a perceptible speed!"
"Fortunately, I brought the main body with me this time... interesting, this feeling is really strange."
He frowned slightly, then relaxed. Joshua, who was involved in an accident for the first time and did not cause the accident himself, did not say much, while the other two legendary powerhouses were preparing to send a message to other legends to come and deal with this incident. Sudden chaotic fluctuations.
But soon, Nostradamus and the Nature Master discovered that the news could not get out at all.
"A very weird fluctuation - this chaotic fluctuation will decay energy waves and even reduce the energy transition level of elements. Our communication will be broken down into meaningless low-energy waves the moment it is transmitted."
A faint blue light flashed in Nostradamus's eyes. He analyzed the phenomena of microscopic time and space and couldn't help but have a headache: "I can set up a stable time and space bridge and send the information back directly - but it will probably take a long time. I I haven’t recovered yet…”
"Then Galan Nord and I will go check out the situation first."
Joshua also sensed the unusualness of this chaotic fluctuation, and this was the first time he encountered this unique chaotic fluctuation with special and abnormal effects.
Is this... the special thing about the evil god? There was such a vision before even appearing.
For some reason, Joshua felt like he had forgotten something. Sensing something was wrong, the warrior who was about to control the giant cocoon on the planet and go to the source of the chaotic fluctuations frowned in confusion. Then, he nodded thoughtfully: "I see."
"The battle has begun."
… Inside the unknown world, the Akrafa hub…
"Ah——!!!! It hurts! It hurts!!!"
After waking up from the endless onslaught of information, the first thing Priest felt was endless pain.
From the nerve endings to every component at the foundation of the soul, endless information is poured into it, directly disrupting Priest's brain and the nervous system impacted by the soul, and the soul is on the verge of collapse - even if the light beam is repaired, it has always been functioning normally. Even though Priest, who felt like he was about to explode, was restored to a perfect state, the extreme pain would not change at all.
It can even be said that Priest, who is constantly being repaired by the repairing light beam, constantly waking up, unable to coma, and suffering 100% pain, cannot even escape, and has to endure pain that is more than ten times stronger than that of a normal person. .
But thanks to this, Priest did not forget those things that must never be forgotten.
"Absolutely... tell them, tell the teachers, tell Mycroft headquarters..."
Holding on to his rationality, Priest simply raised his left index finger and inserted it directly into his left ear. The strong fighting spirit was released cleanly and precisely, destroying the pain-sensing parts located in the center of the left and right brains, temporarily. Shielding him from the physical pain that made his hands and feet tremble and unable to walk normally, in addition to this, Priest's whole body was swept by his own fighting spirit. The ends of the divine machine were completely necrotic, and all actions were completely controlled by fighting spirit.
Anyway, there are things like repairing light beams, brains and nerves. If they are broken, it does not mean that they cannot be repaired. Priest thought extremely bachelorly, and just like that, he stood up and walked towards the door of the Akrafa Central Control Room.
"This is not a world at all...the moon in the sky is not a moon either..."
"This is a sealed place, the largest sealed place, a testing ground for sages and gods, and the most terrifying prison in the world!"
Standing on the energy position of the automatic navigation system, Priest was half-kneeling on the ground. He stared at the ground. Whether it was fear or composure, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate metal and see the depths of the earth and the existence under the earth's crust. .
"Under our feet... there is a chaotic evil spirit imprisoned!"
Kavin is serious…
