"Era One: The great Creator seems to never wake up from the nightmare, because the entire world was born in His dream. All the universe, time and space, matter and dimensions are under the endless power brought by this nightmare.
Continue to multiply and develop until the unseen Supreme Being in a higher dimension awakens the Creator. At that time, everything will disappear instantly, as if it never appeared."
"Era Two: Before creating the universe, the Creator created two eternal 'substances', one is 'life' and the other is 'death'. The Creator said that if there is 'life', there will be 'life';
If there is 'death', then there is 'death'. Survival is the eternal topic in the universe that will never change, and death is also the eternal and eternal... ending in the universe." - "Holy Words".
The death of "Future" and Luo Nie did not touch Luo Nie too much. Apart from the fact that being trapped in the "Silent Heights" for thirty years obliterated some of his human emotions, in fact, he did not really have any relationship with this person.
Two crucial "people of destiny" have been in contact for too long.
According to the script written by the Creator, he should indeed go north to explore with Ronie who obtained [Personality] after the battle of "Silent Highlands", fight Ivan XXII, the originator of this wasteland world, and then end Kru
The wishful thinking of the "Global Energy Evolution Platform Plan" of the German Federal Council, before this land completely fell into the hands of the lost and "unintentional people", headed east towards the territory of the Fire Empire.
And now...
After an unknown amount of time, Wright rubbed his sore eyes and woke up from his short sleep.
He wiped off the yellow sand on the silver guard uniform, supported his body that had recovered some of his physical strength and magic power, and looked around.
The sun above my head seems to be much brighter, like midsummer, bringing a feeling of anxiety and heat.
The river not far away is filled with clear and dangerous water, which sparkles under the sun.
"Is everything... over?" Wright shook his head vigorously. After regaining consciousness completely, he found that the limbs that had been eroded by the decaying material of "Plamini's Sorrow" had returned to normal, except for the back of his head.
Only seven of the curled up and languid "Touches of Darkness" are left, and the one that was cut off will probably not be able to grow back for the time being.
After observing for a while, Wright chose to run towards the place where the mechanical Ronai fought with "Plamini's Sorrow". Now, there is nothing else there except a pile of mechanical fragments and rotten and rusty metal blocks.
exist.
"Logically speaking, defeating the boss in the illusion should open a door to the outside world or a deeper realm. However, 'Plamini's Sorrow' is already dead, and Luo Nie is also dead, why should we reveal it to the outside world?
The passage has not appeared yet. Could it be that I have missed some important clues?" Facing a pile of scrap copper and iron that smelled of engine oil, Wright held his chin and thought:
"Luo Nie said that Edari Sage's prophecy... there is such a sentence, 'The mechas of the old create a new world.' If this sentence refers to this battle, the passage to the outside world should have been opened.
But if it doesn’t refer to battle, then the clues...should be in these mechanical fragments."
With that said, Wright surged up the red magic power in his body and activated the "Burning Black Vision".
After a burst of black ribbon-like gas lingered near his eyes for a few times, his two originally pitch-black pupils quickly spread outward, turning the whites of his eyes into pure black.
This time, Wright chose to let the power of "Black Sight" act on both eyes, instead of keeping one eye to observe the real world as he was used to when using "Future".
In Wright's view, the entire world is either a completely illusory existence or a completely real existence. There is no real existence between illusion and reality. If it is half real and half illusory, either a lot of important information will be left behind, or
…will be twisted…crazy.
Soon, the world in Wright's eyes completely turned into a black and white existence, as if he was observing through a black and white camera. An uneven dome appeared in the originally bright and endless blue sky.
A boundary appeared in the seemingly endless world of yellow sand. If you look closely, you will see that it is a barrier made of pale light.
"It seems that there is a boundary here. Perhaps it is not entirely an alien space, but one of the closed spaces under the 'Red Fantasy Ruins'. In this case, a passage to the outside world will definitely appear, but it should
It's not at the edge of the space, but at the core. The mechanical fragments in front of you have a strong aura of demonic power, as well as traces of 'divine' and 'ancient'."
While analyzing, Wright was rummaging through the messy mechanical fragments for something. Soon, when he removed half of the broken mechanical head according to the information revealed by "Burning Black World", a mechanical head appeared in front of it.
Composition of flower buds.
Legend has it that when the dragons were completely expelled to the Dragon Realm filled with blood and lava, humans with the "wisdom" and "inspiration" sequence core ushered in the "Steam Era" that the gods had never imagined, including the dragons.
The alien beasts, vampires, monsters and other creatures that relied on extraordinary power to exist gradually lost their source of power. They either changed their faith to "ancient gods", or relied on weak magic to blend into the human world and exist as humans.
According to the long-burned "Future Epic Part 1" by Edari Sage, after the advent of the steam world, machinery and all the supreme scientific things it creates will completely replace magic, and everything in nature will experience
A destruction brought about by mankind.
All living things, including humans, will experience a painful process of destruction and then usher in a new reincarnation.
If, in the "painful process", we can find "mechanical buds", it can prove that in this reincarnation, the Creator does not want complete destruction to come, and He has left a trace of remnant for human beings and all life.
hope.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Is there any hope left?" After carefully reading the above content composed of Chinese characters, Wright closed the "Burning Black Vision" and carefully observed the bud.
.
It is small enough that Wright can hold it with one hand, but it looks so tough. Among the stains made of machinery, oil and blood, relying on the "nutrients" given by the yellow sand, it is like a star hanging in the universe.
Like a star in the curtain, it stood among the dead machines, its silvery white color slightly reflecting the brilliance of the sun.
In Wright's view, perhaps this is the meaning of "hope": no matter the long night and death, or the burning heat and survival, even if decadence and ruin are the style of the whole world, fear and confusion are never far away, and there will always be people struggling to break through the ground.
The seedlings chant a hymn of courage and life.
Such a charming "mechanical bud" seemed to penetrate Wright's indestructible mental strength in an instant. He unconsciously raised his dirt-stained right hand and stretched out his index finger to touch the top of it.
But what he didn't expect was that the moment his body filled with red magic power came into contact with the flower bud, a blade instantly shot out from the flower bud and cut his finger.
Soon, countless metal threads as thin as hair burrowed into the damaged part of the wound like greedy leeches, sucking his blood.
Immediately, the yellow sand began to boil. Wherever you looked, the brilliance of the sun disappeared. Countless pure blue light pillars rose from the ground one after another. The yellow sand turned into powder with a rusty smell and rose into the air, which happened to be the entire space.
The top area reveals a hollow iron plate with a strong mechanical style hidden underground.
A few seconds later, countless gunfire and explosions, either real or with an ethereal illusion, came from a distance. The originally quiet, precise and harmonious world turned into the edge of the battlefield.
"Is there a battle? Or have the Crusaders entered the 'Red Fantasy Ruins'?" Wright guessed.
However, apart from a few shells exploding not far away and the rising mushroom cloud, the only thing that answered him was the red sky and the blue underground space.
At this moment, the "mechanically formed bud" seemed to have absorbed enough nutrients, and the metal wire was pulled away from Wright's fingers. After a disturbing sound of mechanical operation, the "flower bud" actually bloomed, emitting an extremely unpleasant sound.
Real, bright light group mixed with confusion and chaos.
Wright was afraid that the light group would affect his vision, so he turned his head to one side and used his peripheral vision to observe the changes in the flower buds, waiting for the light to recede.
Fortunately, his judgment was correct. The light disappeared after a few seconds. When Wright turned to look back, he found that the pile of mechanical fragments had turned into a pile of broken bones of various animals, exuding decay.
The stench it brings.
At the same time, under the influence of the strange illusions around him, the petals that bloomed like an inward curling flower only lasted for a few seconds before they all withered, forming a beating, mechanical heart.
"This is a mechanical heart..." Luo Nie's voice came from in front of Wright.
Wright looked up, and the light blue shadow of Luo Nie appeared in front of him.
"Luo Nie?"
"No need to be surprised, I did not mutate into a 'alien monster', nor did I die. Just now, the Lord of Machines responded to my call, and He told me that I will return to the realm of gods. Because, I myself am the support of the Lord of Machines.
Created by the fate arranged by the Creator." "Luo Nie" said in a gentle tone:
"I was born to fulfill the promotion of you [Order] at this moment. All my existence, including acquiring [Personality], are meaningless embellishments, even if I have never existed in a human form.
, this heart will also appear in front of you.
"It's called the 'Mechanical Heart of Hope', Wright. As long as you take out the 'Eternal Red Key' I gave you and insert it into it, it will shed its mechanical shell along with the heart and turn into a real heart."
For you to eat. When you really advance to level 3, the path hidden behind the confusion will appear."
"Is there a path after confusion?" Wright glanced at the military backpack in his hand. After struggling for a while, he took out the "Eternal Red Key" and inserted it into the mechanical heart.
Click, click, click, click!
The mechanical shell fell off normally as Luo Nie said...
Half a minute later, Wright wiped away the remaining red liquid at the corners of his mouth and the tears at the corners of his eyes, and walked towards the road ahead that led to the deeper realm of the "Red Fantasy Ruins".
At the same time, a white sequence core was generated in his soul. The white light brought by sequence 3: battle appeared on the tattoo of iris and sunflower intertwined on his right arm.
