Chapter 7 The darkness buried in the depths of the world
Qingchuan International Airport.
Today is the official start of the school trip. Most of the students from Covenant College arrived at the airport wearing their school uniforms and pulling their suitcases.
For a while, the airport seemed a bit youthful. Under the guidance of the teacher, the students sat in the waiting hall and waited for the arrival of the flight.
Li Sun sat with his classmates, but except for the monkey-like Chonggo Doya, there were no other classmates around Li Sun.
Chongwu Dao was also talking about some prospects for the study trip next to Li Xun.
You must get a girlfriend, you must really rub your breasts, you must sell your virginity and so on.
They were all about male and female reproduction. Li Xuan answered a few words in a somewhat coping style, but actually did not listen to what Zhong Wudao said.
Just waiting silently for the flight to arrive.
"Hey, classmate Li Xuan... there is a pretty boy walking towards us."
Just when Juugo Doya said he was getting excited, he discovered the biggest enemy of his ambition to start a school trip!
Li Xuan didn't pay much attention, but he heard the girls in his class behind him making an exaggerated cry.
Among the girls in Li Xun's class, a girl with shoulder-length hair who looked very capable was flipping through a magazine in her hand. She was the only one in the class who was relatively calm.
"Master Saga! Stop reading that dirty magazine of yours!" The girl on the side shook her shoulders, known as the Saga girl, and pointed to a short distance away and shouted.
"What's going on?" Shaka was a little annoyingly afraid of opening the girl's hand, and turned her head to look in the direction where the boy was sitting... But she immediately froze with an impatient expression on her face, holding the hand in her hand.
The magazine fell to the ground.
Shaka looked at the scene in the distance with a flushed face, looking a little unbelievable.
"No way?" She could only make meaningless screams.
"Why are you here."
Li Xun, on the other hand, looked at the familiar person in front of him with eyes without any emotion.
Harukawa Abe…
He was wearing a uniform similar to that of a captain. He walked up to Li Shuan and put his hand on the chair behind Li Shuan. He moved his face close to Li Shuan and whispered in Li Shuan's ear.
"The winner is the king or the loser. I, Abe Seimei, know how to abide by the agreement. I haven't told you about the imperial war yet."
"Yeah?"
Li Shuan frowned in discomfort. Qingchuan Abe was too close now...Li Shuan could even smell a light floral fragrance on his body...
Chongwu Dao on the side also fell into a daze when he saw this scene.
No matter how small the various comments around him were, they still reached Li Xun's ears.
"Don't cause me any trouble."
Although Li Shun didn't know why those girls caused the commotion, he felt uncomfortable being so close to Harukawa Abe.
"Then I'm really sorry." Qingchuan Abe left Li Falcon's position, stood up straight, took off his captain's hat, patted it on his head, and bowed slightly to Li Falcon.
"I am the captain of this flight and welcome everyone from Covenant College to board this flight."
Harukawa Abe waved to the group of girls behind him.
"Wish you all a happy journey."
"Excessive hormonal secretion." Li Xuan calmly expressed his opinion on the situation of the group of girls behind him.
"This is better than wood that secretes too little, no, or even no secretion of a certain hormone."
Harukawa Abe put on his captain's hat again and extended his hand to Li Falcon.
"Okay, Li Jun, your study trip has officially begun. Welcome to Qingchuan International Airport."
………………
Located above the departing flight, Covenant College is richer than Li Xuan imagined... I don't know why this flight was taken by Covenant College.
Li Xun is not in the cabin now.
He is now...
Cab.
"Can you tell me?" Li Xuan leaned against the wall behind the cab, dazzled by the densely packed control instruments in the aircraft cab.
Since the establishment of the German Iron and Steel United States, the technological development of the New Chinese Federation, which cooperates with it, has been very rapid, including the fact that this aircraft has been upgraded in many aspects compared to decades ago.
Harukawa Abe sat in the driver's seat, constantly adjusting some data with his hands. After setting it to automatic flight, the chair turned to Li Xuan. Harukawa Abe's eyes stared at the indifferent man who was leaning against the wall and holding his arms.
Li Xun scratched his head helplessly...
"Let's talk about this kind of thing in that world."
Qingchuan Abe carefully asked Li Sun's opinion.
That world? Here? On a plane?
Li Shuan stared at Qingkawa Abe with a vigilant look. There is an absolute connection between the two worlds. If Li Shun entered that world on the plane, then Li Shun must also have appeared in the sky.
Heroic spirits cannot fly.
Even Galahad's angel form requires Li Sun to pay a certain price before it can materialize. There are so many monsters in Harukawa Abe, and some of them must be able to fly.
If you enter that world here and Harukawa Abe has any ill intentions, Li Shun will be very passive...
"Although the two worlds are inevitably connected, but..." Qingkawa Abe raised his hands in the air somewhat innocently: "I don't dare to mess with you anymore, King Arthur, you even invited the gods over, my little yin and yang
Master, what are you still afraid of?"
"If you have any ill intentions, I will make you regret it."
Li Sun acquiesced to Qingkawa Abe's proposal, and closed his eyes after giving a slight warning.
"So!" Qingkawa Abe turned his hand, a spell appeared, and then recited his own spell.
"The gods are useless, the world is ignorant, gather the spiritual energy from all directions, gather the essence of heaven and earth, and use talismans to break the world!"
The talisman in Qingchuan Abe's hand turned into dust and scattered in the air. In an instant, starting from Abe Qingming's talisman, a series of chain reactions occurred. The instruments on the plane began to twist and float into the sky. Li Xuan leaned behind him.
The wall was stretched infinitely in an instant, and Li Xun was forced to stand up straight.
The entire cab expanded infinitely, and the sound of twisted steel made people feel harsh. Then the top layer above was torn open, revealing dark red clouds, and the surrounding color once again turned orange like dusk.
Came to this malicious world again.
Li Shuan looked at the clouds flowing quickly in the sky, telling Li Shuan that he was on the plane and at the same time above the clear sky of 10,000 meters.
After Harukawa Abe came to this world, he had already changed into an Onmyoji costume. He held a folding fan in his hand and stared at Li Falcon with narrowed eyes.
"how do you feel?"
"What does it feel like?"
"To this world..."
When asked about this, Li Xuan stretched out his hand and waved it in the air that was so turbid that it made people sick.
"A... uncomfortable world. The air... the atmosphere... the color... are all very annoying to humans, and the witchcraft here is full of the smell of death, but..."
Li Xuan shook his arm and covered his chest...
"I don't want to leave..." Li Xuan raised his head and looked at Qingchuan Abe: "I don't want to leave this world, why...why?"
"Because this world is trying to keep you, I should say asking you to stay." Qingchuan Abe explained for Li Falcon: "You are King Arthur, one of the holders of witchcraft, and you have the ability to summon "spirits" in the heavens.
So this world that has been polluted wants to ask for your holiness to stay, which will make it feel better..."
"What is the name of this world? Why are people with witchcraft retained by it?"
Harukawa Abe chuckled, then walked around the twisted cabin a few times, and then saw black mist emerging from a gap in the steel...
He stretched out his hand and grabbed the black mist, and then grabbed a dark and blurry figure from it. The figure's face was very distorted, with various negative emotions. He had just been captured by Qingchuan.
Abe grabbed it and waved his limbs to catch Harukawa Abe.
However, Qingchuan Abe just pinched it gently, and the pitch-black figure disappeared with a shrill cry.
"Wraiths, or ghosts, are just the lowest level of baby-like ghosts, but they are deadly enough to ordinary humans. In other words, ordinary humans cannot survive even a few seconds in this world.
They will be eaten up by these ghosts. Only those with witchcraft power can resist the malice of this world, and also have the ability to purify this world."
"Is this... hell?" Based on his own knowledge, Li Xuan connected the two terms ghost and resentful spirit, and only thought of hell.
"Hell? No, no, no." Harukawa Abe shook his head: "Hell is a good place. Where can I find a large group of friends? How can such a good place be in such a dirty world? On the contrary, this is paradise."
"Heaven?"
"It should be said that it is the old paradise, the place that all souls once longed for...now?" Harukawa Abe waved his folding fan, and all the ghosts that gathered around him were killed by Harukawa Abe, and he let out a shrill cry and turned into ashes.
ash.
"It is the hell of all souls... No, after reaching hell, the soul can at least be reincarnated, but here, it can only be trapped in this world forever, constantly fighting with other souls in order to become stronger
, these are the rules of this world...so we witchcraft holders call this world the 'Spirit Prison World'"
"The realm of spiritual prison?" Li Xuan listened to a series of narrations by Qingchuan Abe and touched the dust accumulated on the ground: "I prefer to call it the invisible boundary. The name is not important, what I want to know is
Why has the world become like this, and what is the so-called struggle for imperial power?"
"Hmph, the ruler of the old paradise once made a mistake, a very serious mistake." An ancient book was found in front of Harukawa Abe, floating in front of him, and was turned over by an invisible force.
"Those idiots actually attributed heroic spirits to being qualified to enter heaven... No! Beings qualified to have souls!"
"Heroic Spirit? Is there anything wrong?"
"Do you know where the gods' power comes from?"
Li Shun once studied theology, and he studied theology for the sake of this world, but for some unknown reason Li Shuan could not find the legend about this world, as if it had been deliberately erased by someone.
"Faith." Li Xuan still knew where the power of the gods came from.
It was man who created God, not God who created man. If people believe in the existence of that god, then he exists. The more people believe and the more people believe in him, the greater his power! This is the god.
!
A polymer of human faith…
"That's right, and everything has changed since those idiots let the heroic spirits enter heaven." Harukawa Abe took back the ancient book: "Only souls called heroes by humans can be qualified to become heroic spirits, and then
A terrible thing happened. People believed in the existence of a certain heroic spirit, mourned him, remembered him... and enshrined him as... a god!"
"Countless heroic spirits entered heaven, causing the entire heaven without disputes to fall into the flames of war, because those heroic spirits were enemies during their lifetime, and they were also enemies after death... After becoming heroic spirits, their power was strengthened, and the myths circulated in the world made
Their power is comparable to gods, and powerful heroic spirits are wreaking havoc throughout the heavens... So..."
"Is the old paradise destroyed like this?"
Harukawa Abe nodded in affirmation.
"The souls of the soldiers who followed the heroic spirits will not die because they are in heaven, but the heaven that has lost the glory of the gods has become filthy, and the former heroic spirits have become resentful spirits... because no one will remember the names of the soldiers on the battlefield."
In a legendary battle, people will only praise the names of the legion leaders, generals, and kings of that country, but never the names of the soldiers. The soldiers who contributed the most to a war and paid the most will only be remembered in the end.
Forgotten by people...
This is how unfair the world is.
"In the past, those who attacked you were the ghosts of enemy soldiers that you killed as King Arthur. Now, too, they keep watching you, keep resurrecting, become stronger, and then kill you... No matter this
world, or another world, they are all hunting you."
"So what is the struggle for imperial power?"
Li Xuan didn't care about the attack of the group of resentful spirits. It was something that could no longer be avoided, so he just faced it calmly.
"The most powerful force in the world is the world and the laws of heaven. No one can violate these..." Harukawa Abe, as an onmyoji, has studied this point very thoroughly: "The war in heaven affects the order of the human world and the hell world.
So the rules of the world planned to make these barbaric guys obedient. The old paradise was destroyed by the rules of the world. The leader of this group of heroic spirits, the world once again gave them the opportunity to reincarnate, allowing them to descend into the human world, and their power was washed away again...
The heroic spirits who were once under these leaders are waiting for their king to call them in heaven, hell, or other places, and have become their king's "guardian spirits" in this world."
"The reason why the heroic spirits fight is very simple... Everyone wants to dominate the other and make the other surrender, so a rule of war emerged."
"The battle for imperial power." Li Xuan slightly guessed the purpose of this war.
"Let the heroic monarchs fight in the old paradise... Because the power has been reset, won't it have such a big impact on the world?"
Li Xun is just an ordinary person in the real world now.
But his own knight Galahad is different. His power has exceeded the scope of human beings.
"The last surviving king can gain power over the entire world... King Arthur, are you excited?"
"Not interested." Li Xuan shook his head: "I think there is nothing good about the situation ruled by these three countries: the Holy British Empire, the New Federation of China, and the United States of German Steel. There is no major war in the world, so I don't want to change the world.
situation."
"..."
Harukawa Abe was completely speechless with the hopeless guy in front of him. Legend has it that the ancient saints had at least seven emotions and six desires, including that he was once one of the saints. Abe Seimei also overturned the royal family and unified the demons and monsters.
ambition.
And Li Xuan in front of him?
Harukawa Abe couldn't see through him. He really couldn't see through him. What he wanted to do and why he did it... Harukawa Abe couldn't guess at all.
"Then let me ask you, King Arthur, what is your goal in living in this world again? All kings want to unify the world and restore their hegemony, and you? As the former king of Great Britain, what is your goal?"
King? Me...
Yes, I am King Arthur...although it was once...
Li Xuan looked at the red clouds floating in the sky, and the soul named Arthur Pandoragon in his body slowly said.
"Once I only wanted to protect my people and my city... Now the Kingdom of Great Britain has been destroyed. The so-called Holy Empire of Great Britain is no longer the country I am familiar with, and all my people have perished in the torrent of history... If
If there is really any purpose... I think it should be to go to Avalon."
"Utopia? What a strange wish."
Harukawa Abe pinched his chin and glanced at the contents of Li Xuan's jacket pocket. If he guessed correctly, there should be a pair of broken glasses inside.
Which girl does it belong to? Harukawa Abe knows that in the legends of this world, Utopia is the home and resting place of all souls, the place where they sleep forever, and the territory of King Arthur, where all souls will be
Release and new life.
This is a magical legend, but in this world you have to believe it.
And where does this young man with the soul of King Arthur want to go, just to return to his homeland?
No, it's not.
Qingchuan Abe listened quietly to Li Xun's next words.
"But now." Li Xuan closed his eyes: "My purpose is just to enjoy this study trip..."
Bring someone with you and enjoy it together...
Li Shun still had a glimmer of hope, as he owed at least one trip to the girl, but Li Shun had not yet repaid it.
