Xilin looked around, seeing absolute darkness surging around him, as if it had swallowed up all the light. Looking ahead, there was only a white desert in his field of vision, with no green trees or flowers, no ponds or rivers, and no animals at all.
traces.
Stepping on the cold sand, the power of the ether surged slightly, and Xilin easily formed the material composition inside, which was all gray dust and rocks.
The ground is covered with countless potholes, as if they were formed by the impact of some giant object. Some are large and some are small, some are deep and some are shallow. Some of the potholes are extremely deep, even creating steep slopes dozens of meters deep on the ground.
cliff.
In addition to potholes and raised exposed rocks, there are also geological textures such as tears and dense structures. Under the illumination of light, these incredible patterns become clear, as if they were caused by volcanic activity or the solidification process of basalt lava.
Forming.
This is not the first time Xilin has come to this strange place. Every time he comes here, he will have a strong sense of strangeness and confusion, as if this land should not exist in the real world.
Xilin knew that it did exist in the real world, but it did not exist on the land he knew well.
Raising his head, Xilin saw the blue planet in the gap through the suspended, mountain-like boulders.
After being summoned by the devil, Xilin arrived in the void and reached the moon hanging high in the sky.
Looking into the distance, you can still see the hills covered by dust. The hills seem to be completely covered by a thick layer of gray-green sky. This vast dust is like a layer of thick fog and a layer of dark "tumors".
It is everywhere on the lunar surface.
Continuing to walk forward for some distance, Xilin saw the only figure on this gray land, a figure wearing a heavy diving suit.
He is like a hard-working farmer, cultivating in a desolate world without anyone knowing.
"Young, Xilin."
Leviathan stopped what he was doing, stood up straight, and looked at Xilin at this time. Under the heavy hood, there was a smile, "I haven't seen you like this for a long time, it's really amazing."
I miss you."
Xilin didn't like Leviathan, he even said he hated it, but he knew that he needed Leviathan.
This devil always looks calm, as if everything is under his arrangement, just like his resurrection this time.
Xilin was already in despair, but a miracle still happened.
"What did you summon me for?" Xilin asked.
"It's nothing, I just want to talk to you about future development issues," Leviathan sounded like a company leader. "After all, you have your body back now. No matter what you want to do, no one can do it."
I can’t stop you.”
As Leviathan spoke, he dragged up the "goods" at his feet. Xilin also noticed the goods at this time. His eyes froze for a moment and he couldn't help but ask.
"What's this?"
"Hmm... let me think about it," Leviathan thought about how to explain to Xilin, "It's just like human metabolism to maintain life."
"When you eat something and absorb its essence, you must also eliminate the waste."
Leviathan dragged the cargo to the edge of the crater. The bottom was shrouded in shadow, and countless corpses could be vaguely seen filling the bottom of the crater.
"You can understand it as a kind of waste material that is metabolized after resurrection."
Leviathan lowered his head and glanced at the cargo. It was a person, an adult male, with the same face as Boluogo. It was even said that he was Boluogo himself.
But this body is already dead.
Leviathan kicked the corpse hard, and saw it rolling along the slope of the crater, splashing moon dust all over the sky, and piled it into the mountain of corpses.
"What is he?" Xilin couldn't help but ask, "Bologo Lazarus, what is his significance?"
"Like you, he is just a tool, a tool to achieve a purpose."
Leviathan motioned to Xilin to follow him, "Forget it, let's not talk about him for now, why not talk about yourself."
He then asked, "About yourself, Xilin, don't you have anything to ask me?"
Xilin fell silent. After a long time, the outdoor cinema appeared at the end of the horizon, and then Xilin spoke.
"how did you do it?"
"Which part?"
"With all the parts, how did you take out my body?"
This is something Xilin couldn't figure out. Nathaniel could have hidden his body deep in the chamber, but he actually took such a risk and brought it to the battlefield, saying that he was preparing to trade with the King's Secret Sword.
, but if it is full of loopholes, how could Xilin believe it.
"I still have a certain degree of influence within the Bureau of Order. Entrusting them with a favor is not a problem."
"What about Gray?"
Xilin asked what puzzled him the most: why did Gray appear when he was about to die?
There is no loophole or flaw in Gray's motives and consciousness, but Xilin feels that the more perfect it is, this extreme perfection is not the biggest flaw.
The more he thought about it, the more Xilin felt a sense of fear, as if Leviathan was truly omnipotent, and as long as he decided on something, the whole world would help him achieve it.
"Oh? There is no conspiracy or trick in this part. I just know Mammon's nature and Gray's will too well."
Leviathan said nonchalantly, "As long as you know a person well enough, many of his actions are easy to predict."
"Just like the Bureau of Order brought your body out, did I really directly influence their will? Actually, no, I just gave a little bit of advice. Besides, I brought your body out and carried out
Trading, this behavior makes logical sense."
Leviathan raised his hand and pushed forward slightly, "Many times, all you need to do is this."
Xilin remained silent and followed closely behind Leviathan.
From beginning to end, he could not see through this devil.
"Mammon is a suspicious guy. Although he doesn't know my purpose, he thinks that as long as he can hinder me, it is enough, so he will definitely come to interfere with me. As for Gray, he can guess better."
Leviathan talked about the poor man.
"Gray, a man deeply influenced by chivalry and ancient honor, has always thought that he is righteous... What would he do if he knew the truth?"
Leviathan smiled and said, "You see, Gray's actions are also very predictable, aren't they?"
"But all these choices lie with others," Xilin said. "You place the key on the ever-changing human nature? You are gambling."
Leviathan almost laughed, "I like to bet on the changing nature of human nature. Don't you think it's fun? Winning is also a great sense of accomplishment."
"Just like you, Xilin."
Leviathan suddenly turned his attention to Xilin himself. He continued, "Beelzebub controls the royal family of Kogadel and indirectly controls the huge King's Secret Swords. Not to mention, the Orangutan Sect is also directly controlled by her.
...This is a difficult opponent. To deal with her, I need to consume a lot of energy, and it may even affect my purpose."
"So I choose to help you, Xilin, to help you get your body back, and what you need to do is very simple. Fight back to the Pillar of King's Power and take back the throne you deserve."
Leviathan's voice became evil, and there was a darkness that was growing madly under the heavy diving suit.
"You won't refuse me to use you, right? You will be willing to be used by me, right?"
Xilin's face was as tense as a strung crossbow, his rage suppressed but ultimately unable to be released.
Yes, as long as Xilin still harbors anger, he will definitely fight back to the Pillar of Kingship. If he wants to regain the crown, he must kill the first king... along with the devil behind him, the King's Secret Sword, and the Orangutan Sect.
, all enemies who try to stop Xilin will be crushed by him.
And this is also the enemy of Leviathan.
"Look, human nature is still very trustworthy," Leviathan laughed hoarsely, "If you want to resist me, the way is very simple, just find a place to spend the rest of your life safely, but you really can
Can you bear it?"
"What exactly do you want?"
Xilin felt a pain, the pain of being restrained, "Leviathan, you have done so much and controlled so many people, what exactly do you want to do?"
Leviathan did not answer immediately, but instead called Xilin to the open-air cinema. He fell on the recliner and looked at the starry sky above his head, which was filled with rubble.
"Xilin, have you heard of space suits?" Leviathan suddenly asked.
"what is that?"
"A kind of clothing for human beings to carry out deep space exploration and protect themselves...that is what I am wearing now."
Leviathan knocked on his helmet and complained in a low voice, "This is not some strange diving suit, this is a space suit, the only one in the world."
Xilin didn't understand what Leviathan was talking about.
"We are now in deep space. This is a deadly place. Here we will face many problems such as oxygen, air pressure, radiation, etc., and this clothing can protect us from surviving in this desperate situation."
Leviathan continued, "Do you want to experience the real feeling of deep space? This is my land and is protected by me. As long as I remove this protection, you will be completely exposed to deep space.
The low temperature will freeze your body, the air pressure will crush your internal organs, your lungs will explode into blood, and you will even be penetrated by high-speed dust particles and high doses of radiation."
Xilin said nothing. He could not understand what Leviathan said. Leviathan also understood this, and his voice sounded a little disappointed.
"Well, I don't blame you. After all, in this world, humans haven't even built rockets, let alone explored deep space. This knowledge is more valuable than gold..."
"Is this knowledge about the starry sky?" Xilin gradually understood what Leviathan was referring to.
"Well, I like the starry sky very much. I often look up at it. In order to know the nature of the starry sky, I even implemented some crazy plans..."
Leviathan changed his voice and asked Xilin again, "Xilin, do you know the starry sky and how vast the universe is?"
Xilin shook his head. He rarely looked up at the stars and never even considered the things above the clouds. Many people were like this.
Leviathan raised his hand, and the moon dust surged, forming spheres of different sizes in his hand. They were arranged and suspended in a ring.
"This is the microcosm of the galaxy we are in. In the middle is the blazing sun that illuminates everything, and this is the planet we are on."
Leviathan explained to Xilin like a teacher, "From the core to the edge, there is a distance of nearly six billion kilometers. Xilin, can you understand the concept of this distance scale?"
Xilin was stunned for a moment. His brain could not process such a huge digital concept for a while. For Xilin and most people in this world, in front of the starry sky, they all just lowered their heads and stared at the primitive primitives of the earth. people.
"The solar system like ours is wrapped in a much larger system. In this system, there are at least hundreds of billions of solar systems like ours, and above this system, there are There is a larger system...larger and more boundless..."
As Leviathan spoke, his voice weakened, and his whole figure seemed to fall into a kind of petty despair caused by the world being too macroscopic and great.
Xilin also froze in place. He could not understand these words intuitively, but from the beating and shocking numbers, Xilin could feel the same shock.
This is not enough.
Levi stood up abruptly and grabbed Xilin's head. For a moment, Xilin's vision fell into darkness. In the absolute darkness, he saw a flickering light spot, and then the light spot spread like a virus. The dense spots of light almost engulfed everything.
Billions of rays of light gathered together to form a silk-like floating halo, and there were thousands of such halos. They flickered and pulled at high speed. In the crazy scene, Xilin screamed uncontrollably. He stood up, and his screams were accompanied by changes in his vision.
Everything is becoming extremely small, everything is becoming extremely grand.
The boundless boundlessness.
The gray vision came into his eyes again. Xilin stood there blankly, sweat soaked through his clothes, his mind was blank, and he had no thoughts anymore.
Under the grand landscape, Xilin actually felt a kind of emptiness and depression. The mood was fleeting.
"Every point of light is a world like ours."
Leviathan's voice slowly rose, full of surprise, "Xilin, how vast this world is, don't you want to see what is at the end?"
When mentioning this, the devil looked pious like a scholar obsessed with knowledge.
"Sirin Kogardel."
The devil's voice became solemn. He raised his head and looked at the bright sky with tears in his eyes.
"Look, how small we are compared to this vast expanse. Our hatred, our honor, and even our destruction have all become meaningless."
After a long silence, a powerful voice sounded again.
"I once dreamed of becoming an astronaut, but now I am trapped on this earth."
The devil's words are full of desires, uncontrollable desires.
"I want to end this aimless strife, and I want to become the only king of devils."
Then, like a child, the devil looked up at the stars.
