Mycroft Continent, Far South, and around Hailong City.
Gray clouds poured heavy rain on the earth, turning the sky and earth into a hazy place. Thunder could be heard roaring in the layers of cumulonimbus clouds.
Faina, the sage of the sea, stood in the backyard of her courtyard. She raised her head and looked at the sky. Her face, which was obscured by the psychic veil, could not see her expression clearly. But such a small movement made Hailong City, which was originally filled with lightning and thunder in the rainy season, The surrounding area seemed to have been pressed on the pause button. The heavy rain suddenly stopped, the storm stopped, and the world that was originally filled with noisy rain and thunder suddenly became extremely silent.
"Sir, are you in a bad mood?"
A middle-aged maid standing behind Faina stepped forward and brought a cup of precious high-level magic potion to the legendary strongman. This magic potion called 'Heart of Rock' was originally an unheralded secret of the Earth Temple. Secrets require the use of various precious magic materials as sources of extraction, which can strengthen the mind and a certain degree of magic resistance. However, not long ago, all major forces and extraordinary experts have opened up to the outside world a large number of secret tomes and formulas that were originally top secrets. And the Heart of Rock is among them.
Although the Heart of Rock is equally rare now, it is much more common than in the beginning. It can only be regarded as a luxury product. Thanks to it, there are many talented psykers in Hailong City alone. After being discovered, middle-class families with a little spare money at home gritted their teeth and bought a bottle to try their luck for their children to see if they could join the local legendary strongman in the future.
As a member of the Earth Temple, a descendant of the bloodline of God, and also the most powerful one among them, Faina has been fed this medicine by the great elder of her lineage since she was a child. So even now Planting magic potion has no effect on her at all, but smelling this familiar smell can remind Faina of the warm and reassuring childhood in the past, and it can also calm her down from confusion.
"Yes." Faina replied lazily: "I can't say I'm in a bad mood, it's just..."
"You just don't know what to do, right?"
The maid smiled and put on a fire silk gauze dress for Faina. Although as a legendary strongman, Faina did not need such clothing to keep out the cold, but she had been with her for decades. She was not so much a maid as she was a maid. Rather, it was the habit of good friends, and Faina let the other person sort out her clothes, feeling a little warm in her heart.
After a moment of silence, Faina suddenly said: "Raya."
"Say, what should you do if you suddenly learn a very bad, very bad news, so bad that there is almost no way to solve it, no way to start, and no idea how to face it?"
When she said this, although Faina was still unable to see her expression due to the psychic veil, anyone could hear that this powerful psyker who mastered the transformation of matter and spirit and could unite herself with heaven and earth, At this time, he was falling into deep confusion and doubt: "Raya, you said, if there is no road ahead at all - even if you try your best to carve out a road on the rugged road full of disasters, the future of this road will be The day will inevitably come to an end... What should I do?"
The maid named Raya's expression became obviously serious after she heard Faina's confused words, which were more self-doubt than questions.
She and Faina are the same age and have grown up together. Faina has become a legendary strongman with an ageless appearance, while Raya's hair is a little gray at this time even though she relies on magic potions. No matter from any angle, Rayadu is just an ordinary Silver-level transcendent who has been piled up alive with resources. He is obviously not in the same world as the legendary Faina.
But just because he is such an ordinary person, and because he lives with legends day and night, Raya knows that even legendary strong people will be excited, joyful, confused, and sad. Legendary strong people are super beings, but they are still life, the same With their joys and sorrows, they may occasionally feel overwhelmed and need the advice and comfort of others.
"grown ups."
Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Raya said softly: "Although I don't know what you are worried about and how bad the news is, the thing that makes you worried is a disaster that will happen immediately. ?"
"No." Faina shook her head. She was still looking at the sky. The surging gloomy color was just like the mood of the legendary strong man. She replied in a low voice: "Even if it comes, it will be a long, long time later - Anyway, in a few decades, we still have a huge hurdle to cross, and if we can’t cross even that, we will have no future.”
"It's just, Raya."
With that said, Faina turned around. She held the hand of her ordinary friend and walked slowly in the courtyard. As she walked, she said helplessly: "I know, you will definitely Say, 'Since it's such a distant thing, what's the point of worrying now?' I also know that you will secretly laugh at me and say, 'I'll be dead by then, no matter how big the disaster is, it has nothing to do with me, an ordinary person.' , use your own lifespan to distract me, use this kind of trouble to make me temporarily forget the bigger trouble."
"But this disaster is different from the past. It is different from the ravages of fishmen, the tsunami, the dragon disaster, and the invaders from another world... What I am worried about is not the 'disaster' itself. But there was a sense of decadence in my heart that 'there is no point in fighting'."
Having said this, Faina let out a deep sigh. In her mind, a large amount of file data sent to her by a certain soldier, speculations on the current situation, and a large number of arguments for the analysis of speculations once again appeared in her mind.
—Joshua Van Radcliffe.
Why do you always give such terrifying and hopeless pictures of the future
Why can you always keenly discover the shadow that is in the darkness but is deeper than the darkness
Sometimes, even if you are a legendary strong man, even if you have a tough heart that will never give in in the face of all disasters, you will still feel powerless when facing real despair.
Faina knows that she can face any powerful enemy, or even any evil god, without fear, because she knows that after fighting bravely, even if she dies, the darkness will eventually pass and the light will definitely come. - Even if human beings are bound to face failure, at least they have struggled and made their final efforts for the arrival of light.
But this time... what Joshua told them was the extremely dark reality that 'maybe light does not exist at all'.
"Even if we defeat the evil god who will come decades later, so what... The future is destined to be dark, and there is not even a solution. Even if we imitate the sages and march towards the center of the multiverse, but according to our With his strength, he will inevitably fall into the endless time trap... "
Moreover, even if we successfully go to the center of the multiverse, what will happen
Why do the world's galaxies stand still? Why does the initial fire 'shrink' and 'move away'? Why has no new world galaxy been born in this multiverse? Does the mastermind...exist? If it exists, what is it, what is its purpose, and how can we defeat it
There are so many reasons why, even if human beings try their best, they can't solve even one. There is no way to start. It's really frustrating.
"It's better not to let me know... In that case, even if I am kept in the dark, I can at least be courageous like an ignorant person..."
Faina murmured in a low voice, laughing to herself.
And just when Faina was laughing at herself.
All the legendary strong men in Mycroft's world fell into a similar silence.
What Joshua revealed to them was a future that was too gloomy. Compared with this, even absolute despair was considered kind. At least it hid the appearance of the end. Even if he died, he would still have faith in his heart without any trace of it. Regret and a painful death.
Through the Metal Dragon God and the star map data that everyone can access in the unified information library, Joshua coldly revealed to everyone the futile and terrifying vision of the future: the world's galaxies stopped rotating, and Mycroft's world was not long ago It also fell into stagnation, the initial fire shrank, and no new world of stars was born. Even the giant beasts of the void and the ancient dragons were just repair systems bred by the stars to save themselves.
But even so, the galaxy will eventually usher in extinction, just like the world galaxy where the mother world of the astral dragon clan is located, after a long time has passed, it has become the endless world between Mycroft's world and the stars of other worlds. Endless dark wreckage.
In such despair, even the attack of the evil god seems to be acceptable. After all, the evil god is also a physical enemy. Regardless of whether it can be defeated or not, at least it can fight back.
But now, all the legendary strong men are facing nothingness.
- There is no hope, no future, everything is meaningless gray. No matter how blazing the flames are, they will eventually turn into ashes and fall into eternal sleep, or they will wake up in despair and resentment and become a member of the darkness.
On the top of the White Tower, Barbarossa looked around at the clouds and high sky alone. On a dark night with only stars and moonlight, the legendary mage silently looked up at the stars in the sky. He didn't know which of those stars was the morning star. Just extinguished, the silver glow I see now is the brilliance it erupted not long ago, or the light it emitted hundreds of millions of years ago.
In the deep sea, the fishman high priest is carving inscriptions on the rock wall of the seabed alone. This has been Godard's only hobby for hundreds of years. He is used to using inscriptions to engrave summaries of all the major events he has experienced. But today, The priest was unable to start. He wanted to start several times, but the hand he raised several times was lowered with a sigh.
Deep underground, thirty-two years later, after creating the 'God's Hammer Gundarlan', the dwarf master craftsman personally took action for the first time, lifted the hammer head, entered his long-closed forge, and began to work on the burned red hammer. The metal block was beaten again and again. Flo Ironfinger would do this kind of work every time he felt his heart was wavering, but from the noisy sounds coming from the forge, it could be heard that it was difficult for the master craftsman to calm down this time.
Above the sky, in the laboratory, whether traveling in the void, or debugging in the magic network, whether in the Holy Mountain Fortress, or in the general monitoring hub in the sky, all legends, gods, all Mycroft world The strong men all fell into deep contemplation because of the message sent by a man.
- Of course, the legendary strong men can convince themselves this way. They can say that the future that will inevitably be destroyed is at least hundreds of millions of years later. They are still worried about the invasion of evil gods decades later. What is the point of worrying about this
Of course they can say, take one step, take a step, there is no need to scare yourself, there is no need to worry about unnecessary things.
They can just be ostriches and pretend that all this does not exist - anyway, there is currently no evidence to prove that there is any powerful existence that destroyed those worlds and galaxies. The same is true for the mastermind behind the scenes. Maybe those worlds and galaxies were destroyed naturally, and Is this the natural law of the multiverse? If so, when the world's galaxies are destroyed, it's hard to say whether humans will exist or not.
Yes, they can do that.
But no one will do that.
Israel temporarily cut off the main server of the Skynet surveillance system. He stood up from the throne, and then looked down at his country from the surveillance throne located tens of thousands of meters above the ground.
The natural teacher and the Elf Queen stood hand in hand on the branches of the eternal life mother tree, carefully touching every branch and leaf of it, clearing the energy circuit for this ancient life that witnessed the development of the Starfall Elf civilization.
Eagle rarely sat in the prayer room - the Six Gods were also thinking at this time, but the Pope had no intention of communicating with his gods. He just stared at the portraits of past popes hanging around the prayer room, intently.
No one will 'escape'.
Because they are the leaders of civilization.
- Ordinary people can ignore it, ignore it, and convince themselves that danger may not come. Even if darkness must come, they can at least enjoy a complete life, and it will not have any impact on them at all.
However, as a legendary strongman, as the life closest to immortality in the world, as the leader of an empire, a race, a religion, and as a representative of Mycroft's extraordinary civilization, they cannot deceive themselves like this. They must think, How to deal with these problems, how to solve the inevitable end in the future - they know very well that if Joshua's guess is correct and there is a person or a group of behind-the-scenes masterminds behind all this weirdness, then the world will also be at a standstill now. Mycroft's world is at its most dangerous moment in thousands of years.
Like other destroyed galaxies, they have entered the hands of the mastermind behind the scenes - whether their survival or destruction depends on the decisions of other beings, not their own efforts.
It is precisely because of this that I feel powerless and hopeless, and fall into deep confusion and begin to fall into true contemplation.
At this time, Joshua, who was in the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrificial Ground, did not know the reactions of the legendary powerhouses.
He was just floating next to the Glory of the Silver Sky, chatting wordlessly with the Will of the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrificial Site.
Of course the warrior knew how the news he discovered would demoralize people. He certainly knew that some people, even some civilizations, would be directly knocked down by this kind of information... In the battle with the evil god of death, he had already seen that There have been too many similar situations.
—A civilization that went crazy in the face of a huge meteorite that could not be broken, and self-destructed due to social riots before the world-destroying impact came.
-In the face of the Chaos Familia, they directly gave up resistance, and the entire clan turned into a civilization that was the food of Chaos.
- Faced with the fact that the sun is about to go out in a few hundred years, a civilization that has not made any efforts or progress, and thus peacefully ushered in destruction.
There are really too many civilizations that fell in the darkness, were swallowed up by despair, and collapsed. They were abandoned like burned out torches and became dead memories.
And are the Mycroft civilization and the strong men in the civilization also part of it
