Joshua didn't know how others would react... because even he couldn't help but feel chilled to the bone and his body was trembling when he deduced this result.
So now, the warrior waits patiently, waiting for everyone's reaction.
He just wanted to know how his friends and comrades-in-arms would react to the news - as long as they reacted, even if they complained about why he told them this uncomfortable and desperate news, that was acceptable.
As long as you don't give up on yourself, it means there is no room for recovery.
However, unlike what Joshua imagined, he soon knew the answer.
With the flickering of time and space, one person appeared in front of Joshua, Nostradamus with a stinking face, almost writing "I'm unhappy" on his face.
"You guy!"
Through the address left by Joshua, the old mage who came to the door immediately after seeing the warrior immediately rushed forward with a low roar. He originally wanted to grab Joshua's collar and shake it, but no matter what Whether it was the material of the clothes or the weight of the warrior, it was a bit too strong, so after finding that he could not make Joshua shake at all, Nostradamus could only put down his hand unwillingly, and then pointed at Joshua's nose. Cursed: "I was reading a report just now. I was happy about the growth rate of extraordinary professionals in the empire in recent years. You suddenly sent me such a disgusting thing - Radcliffe, are you in good spirits?" question?!"
Faced with few friends who called him by his first name, Joshua was not angry at all. To the old mage who was still very angry, he even asked happily: "So Master Nostradamus, how do you feel about this news?" ?”
"Stinky shit." Without the demeanor of a legendary strong man, Nostradamus cursed without mercy. He even spat, and then said viciously: "Do you think that you alone know this kind of thing?" You feel very uncomfortable after hearing the news, so why do you insist on arresting a few people to suffer with you?"
"I'm telling you, don't even think about it! I don't feel uncomfortable at all!"
After hearing what Nostradamus said, and then seeing the other party make a vulgar gesture that was extremely inconsistent with the status of the legendary mage, and that only the previous generation of imperial soldiers would use, Joshua smiled and shook his head, what did he think of himself? Didn't see any.
Then, I don’t know if Nostradamus started it, but soon, the next legendary powerhouse—to be precise, two legendary mages appeared.
The pair of Barnier and William, with equally gloomy expressions, arrived here as quickly as possible through the teleportation of the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrificial Site. After seeing Joshua, the two old mages originally wanted to point their fingers at Joshua. Yabi cursed "not a son of man" and "crazy", but because he saw Nostradamus who seemed to be still angry, he put down his hand unhappily in order to maintain his image in the eyes of the fourth party.
But even so, they didn't shut up.
"Won't you wait decades later, after we have defeated those evil gods who come from God knows where, and then tell us this news?" Barnier scolded Joshua for the stupid order of announcing the news: "Do you know You know, after hearing the news, I didn’t even want to update the main server of the Magic Network, I just wanted to come over and scold you!”
"Destroy morale before the war. Seriously, Radcliffe, are you really a soldier? Who would be so stupid as to mobilize before the war!" William belittled Joshua from a psychological point of view. The thinking logic: "Do you understand the step-by-step process? Give you one small goal at a time? How can I tell you the final goal at the beginning? You are..."
Before William could finish his words, the fourth time-space fluctuation appeared. This time, the expressionless Sage of the Sea, Faina, walked out of the passage.
The other party was holding a cup of magic potion in his hand. Ms. Sage took a sip, then glared at Joshua, took a sip, and then continued to stare... She had no intention of speaking at all, and seemed to want to stare Joshua to death.
The arrival of legendary strong men can be said to be continuous.
The fish-man high priest, Barbarossa, the natural teacher and the elf queen, the holy sword user, the psychic king, and the four angry elf queens floated in together - they teamed up to blast Joshua with elemental magic, and soon Naturally, this was just to vent his frustration, and he didn't attack with much force at all. He didn't even break the soldier's clothes.
The Great Elder Qiyao, the Dragon Whale Queen, and even the natural mentor's 'friend', the legendary monster Shaggy, also came over. The dwarf master was the last one to arrive. He brought a barrel of wine and drank while walking. This seemed to be The reason why he is the slowest.
Almost the entire Mycroft and all the legendary strong men came here - the eyes of the gods were also projected here from other worlds. They did not appear, but their will was with everyone.
In response, Joshua opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he just raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
No matter whether the legendary strong men are angry or desperate, decadent or doubtful, whether they believe the information they say or not, none of this matters. The important thing is that they come here voluntarily and want an 'explanation' because of the possible future of the world and civilization.
Faced with darkness and despair, they did not shrink back in their lairs and palaces, lingering for a long time, nor did they feel that this matter was too far away from them and completely ignore it. Instead, they made a decisive decision and decided to deal with it head-on. it.
This alone was enough for Joshua.
Because, faced with a frightening future, they at least act.
- Faced with the terrifying existences that are constantly approaching from the cold multiverse, if the legendary powerhouses do not take action, if everyone remains indifferent, then such a future will be truly complete darkness and despair.
Originally, the warrior thought that facing the reality that the primordial fire was shrinking and moving away, and that the multiverse seemed to have no future at all and was about to fall into annihilation, even if the legendary strongmen were not defeated, they still wanted to make a decision. It would take a day or two, but looking at it now, he had far underestimated these powerful people, these veteran legends, who could become super beings without the demonic tide and the inheritance of a unified large information library. It's definitely not luck or chance.
Their determination may not be as pure as Joshua's, and they may be frightened and confused, but in terms of tenacity, they are by no means inferior to the warriors - their strength is not fake, and they are the same inside and out.
"Joshua, you left an address at the end of the galaxy. You must have something else to tell us."
Seeing that everyone was almost here, the dwarf master craftsman Flo Ironfinger stepped forward. The old dwarf raised the wine glass in his hand and said in a dull tone: "If there is anything, please tell me quickly, I still want to Go back early and drink to relieve your boredom, I don’t have time to waste with you, a mean-spirited brat like you!”
It can be heard from the voice that the dwarf master craftsman is in a very depressed mood - anyone can be depressed, especially Joshua's method of transmitting information, which is to use the power of steel to directly compress and package a bunch of files and stuff them into in the recipient's head.
If it were not a legendary powerhouse, it would not be impossible for ordinary people's brains and souls to be exploded by this terrifying amount of information, but even so, short-term dizziness is inevitable.
Regarding this, Joshua originally wanted to start explaining on the spot - there was too much information to say. He had been planning for a long time, including how to face a large number of evil gods in the next few decades. Strategies that flocked to Mycroft's world, but just when the warrior was about to speak, he suddenly discovered that two of his old acquaintances did not come this time.
The Great Emperor of the Northern Empire, Israel Diamond, and the Pope of the Seven Gods, Eagle, are not here.
This discovery immediately made Joshua's heart sink.
Israel and Eagle... aren't they planning to come
To be honest, they were really hit by the news they sent. If they are still distressed and confused now... it is not a bad thing. At most, it is a little late. It can even be said that they are thoughtful and cautious. But if they are completely defeated by despair and have begun to give up on themselves...
No, not possible.
But, just when Joshua was still thinking.
Suddenly, there was heroic laughter throughout time and space, resounding in everyone's ears.
"Hahahahaha - I thought it was something desperate. Joshua, do you think this is something worth being afraid of?"
You can hear Israel's low voice with heavy echoes, as if it is ringing in your ears, extremely clear: "—The sun will go out, and the stars will naturally be the same. Instead of fearing the arrival of that day, instead of fearing the arrival of that day, If you are afraid of the existence that extinguishes the sun and the stars, why not try your best to reverse everything before death comes!"
At first, Joshua subconsciously looked around to see if Israel had just come over and was just hiding aside, but soon, he thought of another possibility.
Buzz - Along with the sound of the Power of Steel being fully activated, next to the Glory of the Silver Sky, Joshua directly opened the vision of the Power of Steel with the highest power. He raised his head and looked in the direction of Mycroft's world. The warrior's gaze penetrated The world and the void, like the most powerful detection spell, directly crossed the world barrier and were projected into the northern empire, over the East Benert Plateau!
And at the moment when the warrior cast his gaze there.
He saw a brilliant red gold light.
- Incomparably shining, extremely firm, like the sun in the sky, shining on the earth, destroying all darkness and injustice with its absolute power!
The divine light called 'The Justice of Might'!
Next to this extremely dazzling divine light, there is a circle of invisible and insubstantial light that cannot be discovered unless you observe carefully. However, Joshua is extremely familiar with this light. He knows that it is surrounded by the red-gold holy light. , the one who escorted Israel was Saint Igor, the Pope of the Seven Gods!
"The existence and fighting of life never need meaning - Joshua, this is exactly what you told me at the beginning - you said that you are a simple person, and that is the life you chose."
Joshua could hear the voice of Pope Eagle coming from the other side of the distant world. The voice was smiling but firm: "And now, I want to tell you - that is also the life I have chosen! I have long vowed to use my life to light the way forward for all living beings in Mycroft’s world!”
"If you give up from the beginning, there will no longer be the possibility of opening up the darkness in the future. Therefore, even if it is a meaningless battle that seems destined to end and a battle that is destined to fail, there is nothing wrong with it, right? "
There was no time left for Joshua to reply.
Because the endless brilliance of divine power is shining on the land of the Northern Empire.
Everyone - everyone who is looking up at the sky - all civilians who have been protected by the Skynet system and escaped from the hands of ruffians, greedy traders and shameless nobles, all people who have been cared for by the empire's recent policies and have the opportunity to get education and join the army. Ordinary people with special skills subconsciously looked at the sky.
All the soldiers, who had defeated countless orc armies under the leadership of a certain emperor and successfully wiped out this enemy of mankind, all raised their heads and stared at the red-gold sun that suddenly appeared in the night sky.
In the capital of the empire, the Holy City of Three Mountains, in the Morlai Palace, the second prince Dimor raised his head with a complex expression. In every corner of the world, the emperor's children all raised their heads in unison. They raised their heads and stared at the hundreds of thousands of people floating in the sky. Meters high in the sky, the sacred light is about to enter the void.
Under the illumination of this light, even the world and time and space began to tremble violently. It can be seen that the dazzling holy light is condensing in this light, and it seems that it will turn into an abstract 'sun' holy symbol!
—Even if they have the same priesthood and the same ideas, the gods themselves are absolutely different.
If the god of power and justice, Xingzheng, views his own order as "lightless justice," and the holy symbol is a black ring, then at this moment, the Ascending God Yi is ascending to the gods. Srel's view of justice is the 'sun' that hangs in the sky with absolute power and destroys all darkness!
What is justice? Justice means that upright people can hold their heads high and despicable people can only turn into ashes!
It can be seen that a dazzling red-gold light pillar rises from the divine light group where Israel is located. It pierces through time and space and goes straight into the boundless heaven. At the same time, a red-gold star gradually appears in the sky. Above the 'World Barrier' of Mycroft's world!
In the light, Israel's figure was completely invisible. At this time, the emperor of the empire was completely surrounded by a cocoon made of light. There were seven colors of divine power in this cocoon, the most conspicuous of which was the source. Due to the black divine power of the previous power and justice, the departed god had already left enough power to give to his 'God Awakener' before he chose to destroy himself, hoping that after he disappeared in the future, the other party would be able to destroy him again. Raise the flag of 'justice' once and for all, flying at the top of the Mycroft Civilization Tower!
And Israel's low and firm voice came again.
"I will lift up the throne of God in the heavens!"
[But this is not to be superior to all living beings, because I also come from the earth.]
- I just took one step first, took one step first, and climbed the first mountain on the endless peak. I just became a strong person, so I have an obligation to lead you on the right path.
I will lead you to the future of tomorrow!
Across the void of the world, looking directly at this scene, Joshua couldn't help but take a deep breath. He originally wanted to put on a serious expression, but the warrior's body, which should be completely subordinate to his will, subconsciously showed A twisted and stiff, but extremely sincere smile.
"Do you still have courage? Is there still hope?"
Facing the despair, darkness, and almost nothingness of the distant future, will anyone... want to continue fighting
These are the two questions that Joshua originally wanted to ask all legendary powerhouses.
But now, all the legendary powerhouses before, as well as Israel and Eagle, have given perfect answers with their actual actions.
Yes.
- If we want to fight for the distant future and for tomorrow, then the battle will definitely not begin when danger strikes in the future, nor will it begin 'tomorrow' day after day.
It's right here and now.
Right now.
Second update.
This is the first time I’ve written an introduction question so quickly... but this volume is still long.
