Sabrina lay on the ground, looking at the distant black tower in the sea of fire, and whispered: "Rachel, you must be kidding me, right?"
Rachel held the rock tightly with both hands and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. I'm not kidding."
"Then tell me! How are we going to get over the lava?! Can we fly over it?!"
Rachel pressed her back tightly against the rock and moved step by step towards the entrance of the cave. The strong wind blew her long hair away, and the heat burned her skin. Without any fear on her face, she turned back to Sasha
Briana said: "No matter when and where, there is always a road ahead, as long as you can take the first step bravely."
Seeing Rachel slowly walking out of the cave entrance, Sabrina first looked back behind her, gritted her teeth, stood up, and walked toward the cave entrance step by step despite the strong wind.
After walking out of the cave, Sabrina realized what the path Rachel was talking about was.
There is a winding path outside the cave entrance, leading to the distance along the rock wall.
Stepping onto the platform, the loose rocks under her feet and the spurting springs made Sabrina psyched up and walked forward carefully.
This is a long and arduous journey full of dangers. After living for so many years, this is the first time in Sabrina's memory that she has entered such a harsh environment.
If it weren't for the woman in front of her who kept moving forward, leading and encouraging her, Sabrina might have turned around and returned.
I walked forward like this for almost an hour, and the black tower in the distance became taller and taller in my field of vision.
Sabrina, who borrowed the girl's body, was already exhausted. She looked at the breathtaking majestic building in front of her and said breathlessly: "What on earth is that?"
Rachel fiddled with the broken hair beside her ears and said softly: "Beacon Tower, the residence of absolute will."
"Absolute will? What is that?"
"According to the records in the Presbyterian Church, absolute will is the beginning of all things and the origin of the universe. It has different forms in the eyes of different people."
Sabrina looked at the tall tower Rachel mentioned and asked in disbelief: "You mean, the reason why the Presbyterian Church chose this location is because of this tower? So, what exactly did they do?
What do you want to do there?”
"According to rumors, absolute will can transform an ordinary person into a god in the world."
Sabrina laughed: "Is such a thing possible?"
Seeing Rachel's serious face, Sabrina opened her eyes wide: "Are you serious?"
"Yes, there are descriptions of the black tower and the absolute will in the Christian Dead Sea Documents, the Rune Tablets of the Gods, and the songs of the ancient gods. However, due to the deliberate concealment of believers, these records may be unclear.
, or be directly erased.”
Sabrina thought carefully: "You said before that Eliade is doing something secretly. Is it possible that he wants to use this power to become a god?"
Rachel moved her steps and continued towards the beacon tower, while saying: "Everything that follows needs to be discovered by yourself, but what I can tell you is that soon you will realize that the truth may be bigger than you imagine.
The one in the middle is even more terrifying."
Full of doubts, Sabrina followed Rachel and continued walking toward her goal step by step.
Soon, the two came to the cliff below the giant tower.
Rachel gestured to Sabrina to slow down and stop making noise.
The two climbed up to a narrow hole in the rock wall and followed the cracks in the rocks to a wide hall.
The hot magma flows along the mountain wall, like a waterfall, and the flat and smooth obsidian covers the entire space. A high altar is located in the center of the hall, and an inverted pyramid and several unknown lines are painted on the ground below the altar.
lines of meaning.
Masked servants were busy transporting various experimental equipment and materials in the hall.
Their master, Elder Eliade, stood in front of a large machine driven by geothermal steam, carefully observing the compass on it.
Barrels after barrels of black viscous liquid were poured into the machine, and they flowed along the countless huge pipes behind the machine through the obsidian floor to the sea of magma at the end of the hall.
"What on earth are they doing?"
Rachel did not answer Sabrina's question, but waved to the former, indicating that the other party should follow her.
The two of them stepped on the high-altitude rock wall, carefully bypassed the people in the hall, and climbed to a higher place in the hall.
Climbing up the stone steps at the top of the hall with hands and feet, Sabrina lowered her head and looked down. Looking down from a height of tens of meters, the person became as big as a fingernail.
Using her feet hard, Sabrina wanted to climb over the last step, but unexpectedly the rock where she landed loosened, and a large piece of rock broke off from the rock wall and fell straight to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Sabrina turned pale and her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
Rachel stretched out her hands, used her "mind power" to firmly grab the falling stone, and pulled it upward little by little.
After dealing with this sudden crisis, Rachel took a long breath, nodded towards Sabrina, and continued to climb up.
The two came to the zenith directly above the hall. It was a small platform covering an area of less than a hundred square meters. Looking around, there was nothing here. There was only a man-made suspended bridge that led to the huge black tower not far away.
of the tower.
Looking at the light blue light that was constantly flowing on the giant tower, Sabrina discovered that Rachel had stepped onto the suspended bridge and walked towards the giant tower without hesitation.
"What do you want to do?" Sabrina followed Rachel and looked fearfully at the deadly sea of magma beneath her feet.
Rachel said as she walked: "I'm going to confirm some things that the Absolute Will once said to me..."
Sabrina suddenly realized: "It turns out that you, like Eliade, also want to become a god in this world!"
"No, that's not the case." Rachel turned back to Sabrina and said: "I have no interest in becoming a god. What I care about are some other functions of the beacon tower..."
"Sabrina, when I touch the beacon tower later, my consciousness will leave my body. If there is any movement, I need you to wake me up."
"That's enough! I realize now that you tricked me into coming to the Presbyterian Church not to help me get rid of Eleanor!" Sabrina said disappointedly: "You were just doing it for yourself!"
Rachel shook her head slightly: "When you discover the deep meaning of my words, you will understand that I am not lying to you... After I touch the beacon tower, everything that happens here will prove that I
Everything I said."
"Of course, if you no longer believe in me, you can also turn around and leave, taking your problems and regrets with you, and leave here forever." Rachel turned around and continued walking towards the beacon tower: "The decision is yours."
Just when Sabrina was still hesitant, Rachel had already walked up to the beacon tower. The latter closed her eyes and put her hand on the cold metal surface. The light blue light suddenly began to flow faster.
The light is getting brighter and brighter.
Rachel was like an empty shell that had lost its soul, connected to the beacon tower and never moved again.
After waiting for a while, Sabrina found that everything was calm and there was no so-called vision at all. She was disappointed and planned to give up on this meaningless thing and turned around to leave.
At this moment, some unusual phenomena suddenly appeared in the magma sea below the cliff.
A large number of bubbles emerged from the surface of the magma, the flames above the lava jumped higher and higher, and there was a faint tremor on the ground.
Confused, Sabrina walked to the edge of the high platform, lay on the ground and looked down.
The scene that happened next scared her so much that she almost fell off the platform.
Along with the violent eruption of magma and the violent shaking of the earth, a monster head with a diameter of more than 20 meters emerged from the magma.
The head was completely red, and its skin was covered with huge wrinkled scales. Hundreds of eyes of different sizes were scattered between the scales. A huge mouth full of sharp teeth made an earth-shattering roar toward the sky.
"Oh my God! What on earth is that thing?!" Sabrina quickly retreated backwards, only to find that the head exposed in the magma was rising higher and higher.
Its body is like a centipede, divided into segments. Each segment has many wriggling tentacles, and each segment is connected to a pipe that continuously pours black liquid. Even if you look at it briefly, this monster is exposed to the magma.
The body length has also exceeded two hundred meters.
After patrolling the surrounding area, the monster aimed its head at the beacon tower, squirmed its body, and rushed towards Rachel and Sabrina.
With no time to think about other things, Sabrina rushed up to the suspended bridge, grabbed Rachel's shoulders, and pulled her down from the beacon tower.
Like a person who was rescued from drowning, Rachel opened her eyes suddenly and breathed in the air.
"Monster! The monster is coming!" Sabrina shook Rachel's shoulder vigorously with one hand, and pointed the other hand at the lava monster that was rapidly attacking.
Rachel calmed down, as if she had expected this situation to happen long ago, she pulled Sabrina and quickly hid in a path above the high platform.
Listening to the monster's roar, Sabrina, whose body was still trembling, asked Rachel: "What on earth is that?!"
Rachel said calmly: "Don't you want to find a way to eliminate Eleanor? That person is the answer you are looking for."
"Wait a minute? You mean that person?" Sabrina looked at Rachel in disbelief: "You mean, that monster was once a human?!"
Rachel smiled and turned her head to Sabrina: "His name must be familiar to you, the ancient sage of the alien race, the greatest alchemist of Gutero, Sutherland..."
