"Flame, the original fire! The fire-protecting nuns inherited from the first era are looking for the first flame that heralds the fate of the world!"
Flames rushed toward Shade's face. He stepped forward and continued to smash the door in front of him, completely ignoring what the other party said.
"Witches, the emperors of the fifth era! Have the witch emperors who have discovered that the world is coming to an end really not prepared anything for the future world when their era is about to fade away? Have they really all left?"
The beautiful faces turned into black light rushed toward Shade, and the last one was the simple and solemn holy emblem of the witch.
Shade's force on the door became stronger and stronger, and the fire almost melted everything in front of him into molten iron.
"The Church, the god who inherits the power of the ancient gods! Do the devout believers who are still struggling to support the order of the material world after the ancient gods leave, really know nothing about the future?"
With a bang, Shade punched a big hole in the life ring. The prayers of countless devout believers could be heard in his ears. Shade seemed to have seen countless sacrifices, priests and priests.
The man was praying to the sky, the earth, and the world, but he didn't care at all.
"There are also those ancient associations of soothsayers and prophets who are trying to see into the future! When civilization is heading for extinction, what is it, using the power of civilization and enlightenment to weave into a huge ritual, trying to reuse the elements of enlightenment, gathering together those who are about to fall apart?
civilization?"
Countless Rhodes card phantoms were swept by the strong wind in the flames, and rushed towards Shade. Shade suddenly stopped swinging his sword:
"What did you say? What are Rhodes cards?"
"Stories from the past! Ancient legends! Folk anecdotes! Modern civilization! The prophets use enlightenment elements, weave all the information about past, present and future civilizations into a web, and use the Rhodes cards that have become part of the development of civilization to gather together a few people.
The weak light of world civilization! This is the ceremony of enlightenment, this is the ceremony of civilization, this is the grandest salvation ceremony in the sixth era!
Why do you think I wanted to study the Rhodes card and the All Things Impermanence card in the first place!"
Shade looked at him in astonishment. On the Rhodes card that came to him, there were [Ancient Fairy Tales], [Northern City], [Style of the Old World], [Southern Folklore of Kasenlik], [King's Secret Order], [
History of New World Development], [Rites of Life], [Old World Minerals], [Phantom Opera House], [Circus Tragedy], [Shacadie Story], [Sad Opera], [Modern Girl], [The Age of Steam]
, [Words of the Era], etc., etc., the patterns of many series of cards flashed one by one.
"There are also cultists, and those ring magicians that you think are madmen! Transform into stone, dive into the deep sea, sublimate into light, recreate the golden bloodline, return to the age of ancient dragons, and compete for the king of the world in war and chaos! All of them
, all to find a way for everyone to survive in the doomsday that is bound to come!"
All the cultists Shade encountered in the past, their cult rituals transformed in the fire and rushed toward him, but they all disappeared in an instant.
"Laplace Klein, Howard, what on earth did you see!?"
"I saw it, I saw it all.
Miracle! The angel of recovery! Watching and helping the civilization that made the last stand!
Blasphemy! The demon who whispers blasphemy is also working hard to survive and find a way forward for the future!
Enlightenment! Civilization has chosen a way out for itself, and destiny has chosen special heroes. We look forward to becoming one and saving all lives!
Whispers! Whispers are the last words of the world! I saw it, I finally saw it!"
After the faces of Priest August, Dr. Schneider, and Dorothy flashed one by one, the fortune teller hiding behind the door howled crazily. This was his most rude moment tonight:
"The female diviner who returned from the era of destruction! The Destroyer who destroyed the world countless times! The Daughter of Destruction who travels through time, all fighting to continue civilization!"
Purple eyes stared at Shade as if in fire. Shade finally lowered the sword in his hand, and felt as if his head was struck by thunder for a moment:
"Miracle is an angel, blasphemy is a demon, enlightenment is the savior chosen by civilization, and whispers are Luvia who witnessed the end of the world. The four people in the group just correspond to the four elements? Why? Why is this happening?"
"You understand! You finally understand!"
The fortune teller behind the brass door seemed to be completely affected by evil spirits. He laughed, but also seemed to be crying:
"There are never any coincidences, everything is for the purpose of allowing the world to continue to exist.
Guide the destiny of the chosen ones, but who knows what we will face in the future? Not only them, but also countless people are preparing for the day that is bound to come. Those who come from ancient voices, from ancient knowledge, from that most
In the obscure and difficult documents, people have glimpsed the shadow of the doomsday, and they are all making their own preparations."
A group of people headed by Old John from the "Guiding Light Monastery", Mr. Edmond, and Granny Natalie covered their faces with hoods and walked towards Shade in the fire, and then suddenly
not see.
"Shad Hamilton! Why are you so arrogant?
So many people, and even civilization itself, are working hard to continue the world. Why do you always think that your ideas, your plans, and your goals are correct? Is it just because you have glimpsed the destruction?
’s past? Or maybe you don’t care at all about the fate of other people besides you and them?”
Shade raised the big sword again and swung it towards the brass door in front of him. With a huge roar, the door finally collapsed completely under Shade's charged blow, and the big sword hit the hysterical fortune teller behind.
This sword did not kill him, but instead knocked out the [Door in a Bottle] that had dense cracks in his body. All the damage from the last blow was borne by it, corresponding to the "sealed door".
"Space", "Distorted Truth" and "Origin of Out of Control", the ancient evil things whispering crazy whispers and distorted knowledge, finally lost all ability to resist.
Laplace Klein Howard, who was separated from the evil thing, looked even weaker. He glanced at Shade in the fire who stretched out his big hand towards the evil thing. Taking advantage of Shade not looking at him, he turned around again.
He disappeared, but Shade could clearly feel where he had gone.
Ignoring the fortune teller who left again, Shade maintained the current fusion state, held the glass conical flask, landed in the fire, and strode to the center of the sea of fire.
Only the circular area in the center of the sea of fire did not have any flames. The ground here was covered with complex patterns and ritual symbols, but the ritual seemed so simple.
In the center of the standard circular space, there stood a white stone statue that Shade was very familiar with.
There is a man with two heads standing on the stone platform. Both heads have no faces. He is holding a book in his left hand and his right hand is pointing forward. The direction pointed by his fingers is where Shade is now. The statue is wearing a rolled-up floor-length robe and a red shirt.
He stood on his feet, and in the radiant lantern placed beside his feet was the flame of the first fire:
"Why does this lantern look so similar to mine? Is this the entrance to the space maze? The statue of the ancient god [Primary Crack]! Wait, then that white mist can't be."
Everything has become reasonable. Time and the fire have not left any traces on the statue. And the existence of the statue of the ancient god is just a wisp of the first fire, which can seal the island for many years.
The real reason for this era.
Before that, Xia De had never thought that the truth turned out to be like this, but now he felt that only in this way everything was completely reasonable.
His tall figure became blurred in the fire, the black bell tower disappeared in the fire, and Shade and Sister Devlin appeared in the sea of fire together.
Shade breathed heavily, and the feeling of fatigue became more intense. He handed the blindfold stuck on his left arm to the nun again, who lowered his head and closed his eyes, not wanting him to see what he looked like at this time. The nun put the blindfold on his left arm.
After putting on the blindfold again, hold the [Door in the Bottle] with one hand and lift the oil lamp at the foot of the statue of the ancient god with the other hand.
This lantern is clearly the same as the lantern that Shade got from the [Sin Mansion].
The ritual array that had been shining on the ground for tens of thousands of years finally dimmed its light. The ground was shaking, and the already broken sealing ceremony completely collapsed due to the departure of the core items.
But the next second, the huge golden ritual matrix of the sun, moon and stars lit up again on the ground. The dark time key turned into a ball of light and floated in front of Sha De:
"In the name of Luvia Anat."
The light extended to the left and right sides in his hand until it turned into the long straight black staff.
Under the gaze of the nun, Shade stood in front of the statue of the ancient god with a staff:
"Originally, I was worried that only the kiss of the tree would not be enough to seal this place. I didn't expect that the statue of the ancient god was also there, so there should be no problem. The ancient god of time, the father of the infinite tree, the ancient god of space, the original rift, please
Bless me in infinite time and boundless space, please bless me and protect this world."
He hit the ground with his staff in both hands, and the emerald green light spread from the bottom of the staff into the sea of fire, until the shadow of the giant green tree stood behind Shade and the statue.
At the same time, amidst the rumbling vibrations of the island, everyone on the island saw a giant tree of normal color behind the blood-red giant tree under the black hole in the still gradually shrinking night sky.
It rises from the ground until the green tree crown and the blood-red tree crown are spliced together.
The ground was still shaking, and several huge cracks appeared under the trunk of the giant bloody tree. The flames bursting out from the depths of the underground cracks almost immediately ignited the big bloody tree behind Edwards' old house. The burning trees
, making the fiery giant tree even more dazzling, this is the firewood that Sister Devlin has long been interested in.
PS1: The amount of information in this chapter is quite large.
