"No..." Laite's nose felt sour, and crystal tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Even though his body was filled with red magic power, a power highly related to the apostles of gods, and his heart was infected by the "virus" and turned into a semi-mechanical form that emitted blue light, he still had complete and rich belongings.
human emotions.
The incandescent, bright sun hangs high in the blue "curtain". The bright light seems to be able to penetrate everything. All objects are clearly displayed in front of the two people under the light. Even the pure black vines are flowing with blood.
The details of the bottom, potholes, and windings are also clearly visible.
Light has become the mainstream and pattern here, and it is also the only tone here.
Seeing Fansuo, who was constantly shaking, trembling, and struggling due to the flow of blood, Laite wanted to rush forward, burn the vines, and rescue him.
However, as soon as he took a step, he found that the solid masonry suddenly turned into extremely soft soil. After just two steps, he fell into it and found it difficult to move forward.
"Laite." Fansuo called in a voice that was so soft that it was almost exhausted.
His heart had completely lost its luster at this moment, and no more blood flowed out.
The pale green light was like a firefly during the day, flickering with an inconspicuous light, floating leisurely from the heart and floating around Fansuo's body.
"Ah, this is the 'Aura of Life', it belongs to me. It's so good, it's so beautiful. If it were a long night, I would definitely grab it and walk towards the embrace of the rightful owner." Fansuo smiled, his eyes
I kept blinking, imagining that I was in a wonderful long night.
Immediately afterwards, his thinking became extremely clear. Under the influence of the "spiritual energy of life", he no longer felt pain, his body no longer shook, and even his words became calmer from being out of breath.
"I know I'm going to die. The real lost person will release the 'spiritual energy of life' before death. This is a unique and wonderful thing given to the lost person and magicians by the Creator. It can burst out our last breath at the most critical moment.
Gorgeous." Fan Suo explained to himself.
"Stop talking, Fansuo, I have lost many friends, and two more are missing. I don't want to face death anymore. Follow me and enter the realm of gods. She will definitely have a way to save you." Laite
With tears in his eyes, he cried out.
However, Fansuo just shook his head and said in a dark tone:
"It's not necessary. This is the 'principle' set by the Creator. We will definitely die after the 'life aura' is emitted. This thing just gives us the power to fight for the last time. As long as we don't die suddenly and the magic source power is not exhausted,
We will all be "blessed" by it before we die. The Creator wants to use this to give the revelation to users of the magic source power: burn everything and return to nature. Actually, Laite, I don't regret reaching this step, or rather
, I’m surprised that I ended up here.”
"I'm not powerful. There are many lost people at level 5: pain level. Moreover, I am still in the rank of cardinal. Do you know what my name means? 'Mystery', like a riddle
voice. My life is a 'riddle' that can never be solved. I don't know why I was born, why I control extraordinary power, and why I want to devour humans. I also don't know where I will go in the future.
Gods try hard to be promoted, but they still fall into the seven deadly sins, enjoy all the pleasures and finally escape into darkness."
"I have no direction to live. Although I am not mediocre or useless, I have never been able to find that path. I also want to get guidance from the gods, Laite. From the first time I saw you, I smelled
I envy you for the strength in your body. In fact, except in the war, I did not kill anyone. I have a moral bottom line that I need to abide by, but these are not enough.
Sometimes I feel like a body that has lost its soul, and my body is wandering in the sinful world. I am not a 'successor of the mission', let alone a 'chosen one by the gods'. I have tried to understand the movement of 'Elysia'
, and read the contents of 'fate', 'confusion', 'extraordinary' and 'grey dream'. But I still couldn't understand the true meaning."
Having said this, Fansuo showed a bitter smile. He shook his head slightly, looked over at the clear blue sky, and then moved his eyes down to the "constantly twisting" stone door.
"I know..." Fansuo's voice became a little hoarse, "I have not understood the meaning of life, and I do not know the value of the existence of the 'Lost One'. If we use the explanation of the human camp, we can indeed think that the 'Lost One' is half
Humans who have evolved successfully, 'Wuxin Man' are humans who have failed to evolve. But this understanding is too superficial. Now we are two hostile races, which proves that the Creator created us for the same goal."
"A goal?" Laite asked softly in confusion.
"I don't know what it is? Maybe it's to examine myself, maybe it's to verify something. This requires you, Laite Sugra, the [Order] to explore and reveal the answer."
"However, as the pace of death draws closer, I seem to have 'enlightened' a little like a believer in Eastern religion. The meaning of life may be life itself, and we can continue to create new things while we are alive. And my meaning
, maybe just give you a push at a critical moment and create a new future for you."
"A new... future?" Laite murmured.
"That's right." Fansuo nodded, "Our destiny is like Crusted's 'extreme cold realm', facing destruction and no hope; our future is as 'confused' as this wasteland continent, but you and I are like
Existing as 'extraordinary' as a 'sequential god'. I am just a link in your chain like this 'grey dream'."
As he spoke, Fansuo rolled his eyes and chuckled:
"You are the one chosen by fate. 'Order' is a rare thing in the sequence of cards. Come on, you have to trust fate and recognize the reality. Death is just a common thing. If you can become a god
, or even replace the Creator one day, maybe you can formulate new 'reasons' to avoid tragedies. Did you know? Before entering the center of Silent Highlands, Aaron first did a tarot card divination, half for us and half for
You are amazing, you have come up with an interesting result."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What is it?" Laite asked urgently.
He discovered that the "life aura" suspended around Fansuo was floating vertically upwards uncontrollably, and Fansuo's body was becoming transparent starting from his feet.
There are various signs that Fansuo does not have much time left!
"It's...'The Fool'!"
As Fansuo's words fell, his body accelerated the process of dissipation.
In the midst of the vague and wonderful piano music, Fansuo's body finally floated towards the blazing sun with green particles like fireflies. Half a minute later, he finally disappeared, as if he had never been in this desperate, sinful place.
Yes, there existed in the dark wasteland world.
"The Fool... Fansuo... Fansuo."
Facing the empty pure black vines with some dark red and light green liquid still remaining, Laite's eyes were dull and he fell to the ground, muttering in his mouth.
Several more lives disappeared in front of his eyes. The existence that was once highly valued by people in the previous world and above all else was now so cheap that it could be taken away at any time.
Even though Fansuo is the one favored by Yin Fante, the crown prince of the Sune Empire, and is the official cardinal of the Church of Dark Night, surpassing the existence of most of the lost people in the empire.
At this moment, as a trace of crimson flashed in his pure black eyes, Laite felt that his whole body was hot and extremely itchy.
Whether it was a psychological effect or physical discomfort, Laite scratched his right chest, abdomen, neck, and even cheeks like crazy.
It wasn't until countless red "stripes" covered his skin horizontally and vertically that he panted heavily and sat down on his knees among the low sunflower bushes.
"'Destiny'?" Laite murmured:
"What exactly is 'destiny', simple death? Is it desire? Or is it the seven deadly sins? Or is it 'confused' like a walking zombie, and will eventually be destroyed?"
Thinking of this, Laite shook his head and showed a bitter smile:
“Is this what the Creator meant?”
"Or is it the order of the gods?"
"Is 'destiny' an unchangeable 'reason' written by the gods?"
"Or is it a future we must bear? Bear...yes...bear."
"Now I can only bear all this. Relatively speaking, I am still very weak. I am not qualified to trigger the special professional ability of [Order], let alone the possibility of contacting the gods. Yes, [Order] is the future King of Popes.
Existence. You must go through a long period of pain, appreciate all the emotions in the world, meet all kinds of people and creatures, appreciate the customs and customs of different regions, and see the various 'destinies' arranged by the gods, before you can become the leader of everything.
Exist. But why was I chosen? An ordinary human being with no special skills, no absolutely high IQ, no pathological composure, and no unique technology? Is this... also another form of fate?"
Thinking of this, Laite's eyes suddenly opened. Under the hot and bright light, he seemed to have an "epiphany" in his heart.
He is not as crazy as the lost ones from the Church of Hope that he has seen, or as crazy as the mad woman Melina, and he is not as crazy as John's imperial researchers.
He carefully avoided the sunflowers on the ground, and rested his right hand on the soft soil with a unique fragrance, for fear of breaking these golden things.
Then, he slowly stood up using his strength, turned around, and unexpectedly successfully stepped on the rapidly hardening soil and walked towards the stone door.
As he walked, a clear, weightless "Vita Water" quickly surged up from the floor of the altar, instantly spreading to Laite's knees.
The sound of high-speed flapping of wings mixed with a "buzzing" sound came from behind Liter.
Looking back, I saw that the body of the person who had been pierced by other pure black vines had long since disappeared and turned into a group of ugly insects hovering on the top of the altar, buzzing almost non-stop.
A few seconds later, the swarm of insects slowly descended from the sky, deliberately avoiding Laite's body, and attached themselves to the sunflowers blocking the road leading to the huge stone gate a few steps away.
Then, the bugs' bodies exploded and thick acid flowed out. In less than half a minute, the sunflowers in front of them were completely corroded, opening up a complete path for Laite.
"Are you...sent by the gods to greet me?" Laite asked in a low voice.
Immediately, he smiled happily, but shook his head and said to himself:
"It seems that it's time for me to welcome the 'destiny' that truly belongs to me. My body and the secret of the red magic source power may not be that important anymore. If I really see her, in addition to asking her to protect myself, avoid
Apart from the Socra Committee's 'Blood Night Ritual' and 'Laliya's Dream', I hope she can give me even a little guidance on how to end the wasteland world."
As he spoke, he stepped across the ground stained by black ash, walked quickly to the huge stone door, and murmured the incantation for spirit formation, surging with the few remaining demonic powers in his body.
"I pray to the goddess of light!"
"I pray to the Lord of the Night!"
"I order by 'Order'!"
"The stone door leading to the dazzling, extraordinary, majestic, magnificent, strange, and profound realm of the gods."
"Turn on!"
As the spell ended, a stream of lotus-like flames surged from Laite's hand. They quickly transformed into ribbons as if guided, and poured into the mechanical gear at the center of the stone door.
In an instant, pure red brilliance shone between the gears, and countless square red lines covered the surface of the simple stone door.
Accompanied by the sound of heavy mechanical gears running and the "squeaking" sound of the giant door opening, the giant door slowly revealed a gap that revealed a holy glory and could only accommodate one person to pass through.
"The last step." Laite's heart pounded. He suppressed the ecstasy caused by his longing for the gods, suppressed the indescribable joy, and stepped into the stone door.
Accompanied by a huge "bump" of the door closing, the red color between the stone doors dissipated, and slowly descended, disappearing into the ground.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After a few seconds, the altar that had experienced battles, killings and deaths seemed to be reaching the end of its life. Under the light, it instantly fell apart and fell into the abyss.
…
"Up and down, left and right, time, space."
The mechanical, ethereal female voice echoed in Laite's ears again.
He felt as if he had had a long and terrible dream.
After trying hard to open his heavy eyelids, he found that the scene in front of him was still a horrifyingly pure blackness, which was no different from closing his eyes tightly.
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he was in reality or a terrible nightmare from which he could never wake up.
Fortunately, his body's senses were not deprived. He used his hands to support the extremely cold ground and tried to stand up.
But the sudden dizziness and the feeling of exhaustion made his legs weaken and he couldn't help but fall to the ground.
Now he feels two opposing states attached to his mental realm, one is fatigue, the other is spirit.
But gradually, the instinctive fear of darkness and the unknown in his body took over all his thoughts.
Human beings are a species that longs for light. Whether it is the first era ruled by dragons or the wasteland era where filth is rampant, without light, humans will feel obscured, lose their goals, and become crazy.
Fortunately, within a few seconds, his ears suddenly heard the long-lost and very familiar sound of rapid and uniform footsteps coming from the imperial military boots.
Immediately afterwards, several oval-shaped pieces of slightly dim light appeared around him, one of which happened to completely cover his body.
"Da da da, da da da."
The footsteps became clearer, the area of light shrank to a limited extent, and his surroundings became clearer and brighter.
Subconsciously looking down, Laite discovered that he was sitting on a staircase made of bluestone bricks.
As the footsteps reached their clearest and heaviest state, the elliptical light became clearest, and he finally heard the extremely familiar but unexpectedly unfamiliar, rich voice of a middle-aged man coming from the front:
"Laite, thank you for your hard work. You have completed the tasks we assigned you very well along the way, and you have also opened the final stone gate for the Socra Committee and our escort team. Of course, I have to congratulate you for being so far away from Paradise.
'Only one step away."
"George? General George!
Laite said in shock, looking up into the dark field, where the outline of a human being gradually became clearer.
