"How's it going? Have you tasted anything? Or...how do you feel?" "New God" showed a rare kind smile and asked in a slightly high tone.
"If you want to taste it..." "Feng Mine" shook the liquid in the cup and said in confusion:
"Besides the aroma of 'food', there seems to be an indescribable, vague feeling. It's like being in a vast universe containing endless darkness, and seeing that bright spot on the edge of the end as far as the eye can see.
Nebula. Others... I don’t think I can describe it in words.”
"It's something new, kid." The "New God" suddenly looked at "Wind Mine" with his eyes wide open, with unconcealable excitement in his tone.
"I see a new future in you." He added immediately.
"The new... future?" "Wind Mine" looked at the "New God" with a confused look on his face, and put down the empty glass.
"Do you still remember the divination I did for you eight years ago in that shabby room at the end of the railway at the ruins near Nabsk?" "New God" asked, tapping the table with his right fingertips slightly to highlight the problem.
importance.
"I remember." "Feng Mine" nodded and said:
"The conclusion reached at that time was 'nothingness', which means that no god or order group recognizes me for the time being. I have no chance of reaching the upper-level professions. It will be very difficult to be promoted to a demigod or a god in the future."
"Actually, I hid something from you that time. Of course, this was not intentional, but I was also wary of the unexplainable content. 'Wind Mine', you have to know that the world created by the Creator
It is very mysterious. Even if humans spend all the time of civilization to explore it, it will be difficult to spy on one percent of it." The "New God" said with a slight apology in his tone.
"Old leader, I know that you will definitely not deceive me. However, if you mention this matter now, is it possible that the disapproval of me by the sequence group card has changed?" "Wind Mine" stared at "New God"
His eyes seemed to be shining.
"It should be time..." "New God" further explained:
"That night, when my divination for you was coming to an end, I heard a voice from the gods."
"From the gods?" "Feng Mine" asked curiously.
"I can tell because when I heard her childish voice, I felt that the magic power in my body was suppressed by invisible power. Moreover, there was a kind of Wia that penetrated into my soul and restricted me, making me almost unable to speak.
Can't move, can't think." "New God" said with some fear:
"He only said this to me. Of course, I know very well that he was referring to you."
"Which sentence?"
"The person who saves civilization will be eroded by [Nothingness] at first, but under the protection of [Order], he will live in peace. Light may be his eternal enemy, the wind will always be his constant companion, and darkness is destined to be his great companion."
Friends, when the 'red [Order]' comes, his [understanding] will begin to take shape." The "New God" recited in a rhythmic tone.
After listening, "Feng Mine" did not speak immediately, but thought silently for several seconds before slowly speaking:
"So, in fact, old leader, you listened to the so-called oracle, which caused the divination to not proceed correctly, and now is the moment when the oracle prompts the 'first signs'?"
"That's right." "New God" admitted openly. After all, he was confident that "Wind Mine" would not doubt or hold a grudge against him.
"You know, for us, the Lost, who are famous for our agility, it is not difficult to change a card with the high speed of our fingers. The [Comprehension] card that originally belonged to you has actually become a card at that time.
If it's gray, it doesn't mean anything to you.
"For the 'Sequence Card', the conclusion drawn by divination is that there is only one explanation for the gray color, and that is 'relevant to it, but not related to it for the time being'. Therefore, giving you the 'Nothing' card will be very helpful to you at that time.
is the best choice.
"But it's different now. The part of your body that belongs to you is awakening. Although it's still very weak, it's a good start. Just like a fire raging in a forest, it's just the remains of a human picnic at the beginning.
A little spark burned out, but it created a prairie fire."
"Starfire... the power of starting a prairie fire? My power... belongs to the power of [comprehension]?" "Wind Mine" stuttered a little, and his breathing began to become rapid, and he asked "New God" in disbelief.
After all, one or two hundred years ago, when "Feng Mining" lived in a village near the foothill city of the Federal Nanshan District, he still had parents who were lost, and a lovely younger brother with sapphire eyes.
Although there are occasional small-scale wars between the federal army and "unintentional people" there, it has always been a federal production base in the rear. To the south is the uninhabited desert of the Zine Empire and the Eastern Desert. The only city in the desert is Shayin Pagoda, with
It has the nature of being isolated and hanging outside.
However, due to the power struggle within the top ranks of the Federation Council during that time, the then federal chief executive Pvetkin Choyinov, in order to demonstrate his control over the military and his contribution to the war, and to attack political opponents, falsely reported that there was a large-scale
The "wave of unintentional people" appears in Nanshan District.
In fact, it was at most a small-scale attack by dozens of "unintentional people". After it was exaggerated, the Federal Council allocated two corps, bringing in "Red Rose" artillery, "Chakaf" rockets and inhumane "Thermite"
"Artillery shells", carried out a month-long saturation attack on Nanshan District, including Shanlu City.
It wasn't until all the land turned into something similar to the surface of the moon, and the endless flames burned for half a year, that the farce came to an end after the new chief executive, Djokovic Chekaf, launched a rebellion to seize power.
At that time, out of various considerations, the Federal Council did evacuate most residents of major cities and small towns and properly resettle them.
However, the lost, semi-lost, and people with special abilities who do not fall under federal jurisdiction can only seek their own blessings.
In fact, the flames devoured almost everything that could be seen at that time. "Wind Mine" was knocked unconscious in this "war" and slept for more than a month before waking up and escaping during the lull in the artillery fire.

He didn't know how he could survive in the extremely difficult and harsh environment. After all, his parents had turned into a pile of charcoal and his younger brother was missing.
He longed for ultimate power and hoped to reach the level of a demigod or even a god through continuous advancement of magic power. For this reason, he chose to join the "Order Society".
But in the wasteland era of continuous war, he, like humans and other lost people, did not have any time to participate in meaningless training. He could only "practice" in the war, constantly getting opportunities to advance in order, and finally reached the
Now step 4: degree of hope.
He knows that sequence 7: Wisdom is a power shared by humans and the lost, sequence 6: inspiration is something that only a small number of humans and the lost can enjoy from birth, and sequence 5: the lost can automatically obtain it from their talents.
the highest level.
If you want to advance further, in addition to meeting the gods and receiving blessings, you must push yourself into a desperate situation and fully stimulate your body's potential, so as to grasp the illusory hope of obtaining the core of a higher stage.
Since joining the "Order Society", he has been close to death three times in battles with humans, "Heartless People", "Alien Monsters" and monsters, but only got one chance to be promoted. If he could have an upper-level profession, not only would he be able to
The chances of "meeting" the gods will increase, and there will be more opportunities to obtain higher-stage magic source power sequence cores.
While "New God" went to rummage through the junk pile in the next room, "Wind Mine" sat on the sofa in a daze, recalling and thinking a lot. He shook his head vigorously to free himself from the unpleasant and painful memories.
He broke away and sighed deeply.
In fact, over the years, he does not seem to hate humans. An unspeakable "guidance" buried deep in his heart seems to be warning him all the time: "Even if humans commit crimes, the continuation of civilization still depends on them.
"
He didn't know the source of this emotion, but in fact, he could feel the shadow of the gods in the dark.
"I found it, 'Wind Mine'. Actually, now that I think about it, I should have given him to you earlier." The "New God" smiled guiltily and gave a dark-style sequence card to "Wind Mine"
, and said:
"The root of your power belongs to the spiritual realm, and your external power is just a manifestation of it. When you start to have new thoughts, or feelings, about the world and the universe, your power begins to awaken."
"So, is this [enlightenment]?" "Wind Mine" looked at the sequence cards with some confusion.
The back of the card still shows the familiar eyeball monster, but on the front, under the Roman numeral 3, except for the word "inwu" written in Chinese, there is an incomprehensible picture.
The upper part of the picture is a purple-red chaotic realm, which seems to be in the universe, connecting the area leading to the core of the Creator's dream. And below it is a field drawn with twisted brushwork. If you look carefully and think about it, the content is roughly "
"Broken windmill with only half a blade", "black farmland", "half-bitten flowers", "suspended trees in the air" and a young man kneeling on the spot with his hands clasped together, praying devoutly to the top of the picture.
To the left of his body is the dark field hiding clawed beasts, and to the right is the bright direction hiding the white wings of angels.
But in fact, the young man's body does not lean towards any one side. Above his head are two running gears and a sheepskin scroll with ancient text written on it.
After staring at the prologue card representing [Comprehension] for a long time, "Wind Mine" heard the heavy voice of "New God":
"Did you know? Child. The profession represented by [Comprehension] is 'Enlightenment One'. This type of profession will gain more learning ability in the early stage. As long as the environment is in place, they will have the ability to remember photographs and a strong source of magic.
Strength skills learning ability.
"When professional abilities are advanced to a later stage, around level 3-1, they can secretly guide the hearts of people whose levels are lower than theirs, and make choices they think are right. And to some extent, they can change
What happened in the past.
"When they become demigods, with devout prayers, they can even make requests to the Creator to modify the 'principles' belonging to this continent and even the entire planet."
"So, old leader, this power is essentially comparable to the gods?" "Wind Mine" asked in surprise.
