Sean didn't know if this was a real trance-like illusion, or some kind of mysterious projection at the border between life and death.
However, under the guidance of Felixir, he knew that he had made the right choice.
Sean floated and flew towards the highest mountain at a leisurely speed.
Along the way, he could still see the scenes after the collapse. The mountains lost their color, the lakes turned into dry land, the temple collapsed to pieces, and the entire land showed a strange gray-white color, as if the color had been completely wiped out.
Average.
But under the influence of the elixir, Sean smiled and he was just a passerby here.
The tallest mountain stood at the end of the earth, and when Sean got closer, snowflakes fell.
However, what fell on the gray-white ground were not crystal clear white crystals, but red-red floating catkins.
The crimson snowflakes seemed to be dyed with something's blood. A piece of snowflake fell into Sean's palm. There was no cold touch, and it penetrated Sean's hand.
An uncontrollable feeling of grief came, as if the deepest scars had been harshly opened.
But this emotion only lasted a moment. The elixir provided Sean with unparalleled confidence and happiness. He smiled and opened his hands, like a child playing in the snow.
After fully feeling the pain of this world, Sean continued to go up.
When floating halfway up the mountain, a figure slowly emerged from the middle of a huge rock on the black mountain.
The shadow's face couldn't be seen clearly, but it just stared at Sean silently.
"Hello-" Sean said happily.
The figure finally made a hollow, cold voice: "Outsider - why do you appear on this collapsed land?"
Sean laughed: "I was invited here, so I guess I'm a guest, right?"
"Guest——" After hearing this sentence, the figure moved violently, and a large black mist overflowed from the top of his head, like an unstable eye socket.
After a while, the other party calmed down a little, and his/her voice was filled with pathos: "Another outsider, a so-called guest - our world should only be accessible to those with qualifications, and people without permission should not appear in it.
In this world, people who appear in this world cannot return to the original world - this is how it should be..."
Sean asked with interest: "Why do you say that?"
"The land of life and death, a blurry and illusive world, connects the real world and leads to the underworld - this is not a land where passers-by should stay, we are just a transit station for death - those who are qualified to stay will naturally stay, and those who are unwilling to stay will
People go to the underworld."
"But, living being, you should not come here. You should not have guests in this trance."
The figure's voice had a strange hymn-like tone, as if it was admonishing him or crying in sorrow.
Sean asked curiously: "But the illusion has collapsed."
The figure became even more painful: "The paradise created by God - if the pillars of paradise leave, the paradise will naturally collapse..."
"You just said that another outsider, the last outsider, caused all this?"
The figure shows a fearful look, and he/she is trembling: "Oh, no, oh, no... I don't know anything..."
Sean knew that he had nothing to ask, so he said goodbye politely: "Goodbye, sir or madam? I'm going to the host who invited me as a guest."
"There is no master anymore... There is no master in this world..." The figure seemed to be crying and laughing, and he/she floated back to the rock, and then hid in the gap.
Weird and funny cries sounded intermittently.
Sean did not stay any longer, he floated towards the top of the mountain.
The higher you go, the bigger the snowflakes become and the darker the color.
As Sean approached the top of the mountain, the cold temperature coming from the blood-red snowflakes almost made his soul tremble.
"It's so cold here -" Sean rubbed his hands.
He finally reached the top of the mountain.
On the top of the snow-capped mountains, the big tree I had seen before stood in the center.
This tree is so huge that it reaches into the sky, as if it is supporting the whole world.
However, the big tree had long since dried up and turned gray, with many cracks appearing on the trunk. The fine branches continued to fall to the ground accompanied by snowflakes, gently and silently.
Next to the dead tree, there is a small temple. It may not be appropriate to call it a temple. It is a dilapidated stone house built with a few stones. The last small piece of green shade left by the big tree serves as a
The roof of the stone house.
Moreover, the green shade was constantly decaying and drying up. Sean just took a step closer, and a leaf fell from the branch. As it fluttered, it turned yellow, and finally fell to the ground feebly.
"I'm coming." Sean shouted towards the closed door of the stone house.
There was no response for a long time.
Sean got closer, and he had already arrived in front of the stone house.
As he got closer, he discovered that the ground here was deeper than other places, and the black stone slabs still had a faint red color. If he bent down, there would even be a smell of rust coming towards the tip of his nose.
"I'm coming-" Sean shouted again.
This time, the door of the stone house finally opened tremblingly.
No one came out, and what sounded was the ethereal female voice that had appeared in Sean's mind.
Although the voice was still intermittent and small, this time Sean could finally hear what the other party meant clearly.
"You...you...are here..."
"I'm coming." Sean nodded.
"You... didn't lie to me -" The ethereal female voice had no joy or expectation when she said this sentence, and seemed to have lost all emotion.
Sean wanted to move closer and see what was going on in the stone house.
However, a huge sense of crisis immediately came over him, and the Elixir of Fortune reminded him.
Sean stopped walking, and a warning voice came from the stone house: "No, don't get close...it's very dangerous...you will sink..."
Sinking... Sean thought about the meaning of this word for a moment, and then he asked: "What should I call you?"
"No need..." the ethereal female voice replied, "no need to call me... you just need to know who I am..."
Sean scratched his head in embarrassment: "I have a guess, but I'm not sure until it's confirmed -"
"Why...the last time you saw me...you clearly knew..." the voice said.
Sean shook his head: "I haven't met you. The one who has met you may be another me, me in another timeline."
The female voice suddenly said: "Is... is that so... I'm too weak... I can't feel the fluctuations of time anymore... So - you, no, did he fail?"
Sean said "Yeah": "It probably failed. Although I don't even know what happened - but it can also be said that it hasn't failed yet. He is me and I am him. I haven't tried it yet.
.”
"No wonder he said he would understand..." The female voice sounded weaker and weaker.
"Well, I understand how I got here, but I need more information."
"I, my identity... there is no way to tell you... you will be heard... but the fact that you are here... means... you have found a way... you have seen certain facts... I can probably think of it...
Well...well, that's all true..."
Now, even the effects of the elixir were unable to suppress Sean's shocked mood.
All the information they found before was true!
The descriptions in "The Poet and the Greedy Snake of Wisdom" are also correct.
Then, the sound in front of you can only be made by a robin, that is... a god!
I actually saw a god, a god who could not be seen or touched in the magical world, a god who did not even have a concrete form, even though this god was extremely weak and might die at any time.
The robin's voice continued: "It's amazing... how different times... the same person would find the same clue..."
"Because I'm still me." Sean replied.
However, the robin gave a negative answer: "You are different... He, he is stronger than you... much more powerful..."
"Then why does he fail again?" Sean asked doubtfully.
"Because...this is not something a mortal...a mortal can do...but I have no other choice..." There was a hint of calmness and sadness in the robin's voice.
"You are here, but... I can't provide you with... any help... I am too weak... I will turn into the last leaf of the World Tree at any time and fall to this collapsed land.
——But I...even lost the ability to become nourishment...It's sad..."
"Then why did you create that entrustment dream for me?" Sean asked.
"He asked me to do this...I spent all my accumulated strength for this...I don't know what the result will be...but I am very grateful to you, thank you and him...although you are the same person...
replied the robin.
"He wants to convey news to me -" Sean said thoughtfully, "He may know more of the truth, but at that time he was powerless, so he wanted to convey more news to me..."
"Now that I think about it... it's like this..." Robin said weakly, "I was in a daze and kept sleeping. I kept talking in my dreams. My gibbering may have disturbed you, but at least the dream came true..."
"Were all the dreams I had caused by you?"
"Probably... I don't know... I don't even know how to think... It seems like he asked me to do this..." Robin seemed to have said too many words at once, and his voice sounded
Getting smaller and smaller.
The Elixir of Fortune was reminding Sean, and Sean quickly asked: "Then what are you really trying to convey to me?"
The robin's voice suddenly became clearer, as if it was waiting to convey these words.
"You have come to this land again, please save this collapsed world, save them, those lost souls - the snake's fangs are breaking through the boundaries, be careful about the true face of the snake, you can take a copy
Treasure, this is something you leave to yourself. Finally, you asked me to remind you that good luck is the most magical thing, remember to save it."
As soon as the robin's voice hit the ground, the feeling of weightlessness that he had felt once again came over again. Sean was falling rapidly, and he was leaving this collapsed and confusing illusion.
This time, the robin's voice caught up and entered his mind again, but unlike the last time, His voice was very clear.
"Please, this is my last gift..."
When Sean opened his eyes, he was already standing on the grass of the empty island.
Turning around, I saw the fiery red world of magma.
Everyone has his or her own space in a trance-like dreamland, just like the empty island under one's feet - so what I saw when I entered the dreamland just now was actually the soul world of the robin.
Sean felt a sense of enlightenment. He spread his hands and looked at them, feeling a little confused.
Didn't you say that your self in another timeline left a treasure for you? Why is there nothing?
In the end, the robin also gave himself a gift, but he still didn't feel it.
However, the effect of the Elixir of Fortune has not ended yet, and Sean is preparing to return to the living world to start the lottery.
Just as he was about to leave, there was a loud sound of magma flowing below, and then, a head emerged from the edge of the empty island.
[Arrogance] showed up on his own initiative.
His huge face showed the astonishment that Sean saw for the first time.
"You... why do you have His breath on your body!"
Sean smiled shyly: "Is it the smell of His perfume?"
"Stop your rude words!" [Arrogance] suddenly became furious, and the empty island was smashed to the ground with a loud noise.
However, Sean didn't panic at all. He walked to the edge and looked directly at [Arrogance].
"Curious?"
[Arrogance] stared at him with eyes full of anger and said nothing.
Sean laughed with satisfaction: "Just be curious. If you ask me, I will tell you some information, about the robin, about...the God of Love."
The magma suddenly burst out, and the red hot water stirred up the barrier of the sky island. [Arrogance]'s voice was like thunder.
"What on earth did you see!"
Sean ignored him and just laughed happily.
"Compared with Him, you are really impulsive - forget it, goodbye, my friend."
After saying that, Sean disappeared directly into the soul world without giving [Arrogance] any chance to reply.
Looking at the empty island, [Arrogant]'s eyes gradually became deeper. He remained silent and just turned his head to look at another part of the world.
Returning to the present world, Sean smiled with satisfaction. Then, without any hesitation, he immediately brought up the system panel.
