Chapter 16: Phase I Students(1/2)
Boom-
The roar of the train echoed in the carriage, but the sound did not seem to come from the ground, but spread out from the surrounding "starry sky".
This is not an ordinary train, its trajectory is not on land, but is shuttled through a dreamy rainbow light.
The entire train seemed to be wrapped in rainbow light. The gorgeous lights were not still, but flowing and intertwined, like life, pulling the train into a mysterious and vast world.
The scene outside the window is strange and magnificent.
As the deep world of the branch of the [Ether Ocean], the scenery here is like a series of paintings that cannot be described in human language, constantly passing through the car windows.
In the distance, two huge creatures were fighting, and their bodies occupied half of the sky.
One is made of burning stars, and the other is covered with a breath of abyss that is twisted like a black hole.
They are devouring, tearing and gnawing each other.
Further apart, a strange storm is brewing.
At the center of the storm is a huge etheric vortex, whose color changes constantly between blue, purple and red, constantly swallowing everything around it.
Countless flashing spots of light were sucked in and out in the storm. Floating ruins could be seen in those spots, and even broken starships.
The train continued to drive, passing through an endless sea of light, with ripples surging on the sea surface, reflecting a scene that was not realistic.
Those reflections do not come from the train, but like some kind of memory fragment of the past:
A palace shining with golden light is collapsing; an image of a city appears, but it seems to be hanging upside down in the sky.
The light and shadow outside the window are intertwined, like a dreamy flowing scroll.
The colorful light held the train to the unknown distance, while the curly haired young man Alaz Trinkas by the window had already been immersed in his thoughts. His eyes were chasing the wonders of the outside world, but a scene flashed in his mind.
The curtain belongs to his past.

*
Araz Trinkas, fifteen years old, is from Irkos City, which has the Central Alliance.
Irkos City is located in the Magnesian region, close to the sparkling spots of Pagasai Bay.
It is backed by the Thessaly Plain and faces the blue of Evia, but it is cast an eternal shadow due to its proximity to the border of Diva.
After all, this place is an embarrassing place where your father doesn’t love your mother or your mother – it is neither rich nor important, neither strategic nor resource value.
Irkos City has a thin area with its borders that are like a staggering place between reality and dreams.
The land is vast and sparsely populated, and the development is backward. Even the peacekeeping troops with the Central Alliance are too lazy to go deep into the hinterland - no one wants to have a conflict with the Diva army for a piece of wasteland.
And this land that no one cares about has been quietly soaked in the atmosphere of Diva's immigrants.
They gradually undermined the original urban structure and oppressed the living space of the indigenous people.
Conflict, struggle, revenge became the main theme of Irkos City.
In this broken town, extraordinary abilities and genealogical techniques are regarded by the locals as some kind of "witchcraft", an irresponsible force.
In this city, the existence of the Diva nobles was like a hanging shadow.
They hold unspeakable power and can see through everything hidden in the curtain.
Araz Trinkas has witnessed the horror of the Diva tribe with his own eyes.
Their ritual killing is not just for faith, but more of a pursuit of power.
He has heard of and seen those outrageous scenes with his own eyes:
During the sacrifices of the Diva tribe, the life of the living person becomes energy, promoting some evil witchcraft activity.
This behavior is not only a religious fanaticism, but also a bottomless use of the power of blood.
The Diva tribe transformed a terrifying creation with the help of blood sacrifice - the tree golem.
Araz once observed those monsters from afar:
Their bodies are as tall as three meters tall, and their appearance is an interweaving body of plants and bone materials, exuding a cold breath.
The golem's limbs are like thick tree roots, while the joints show a rugged skeleton structure.
Once the Diva people put their left hand into the golem hand groove and whispered "awakening" in the Diva language, these silent creatures will revive.
They will obey their master's instructions, like a ruthless law enforcement officer, covering every piece of soil with blood.
Araz remembers that once, the Diva tribe used this golem to suppress a riot.
The golem walked on the barren streets, crushing the will of the rebels.
However, the Diva tribe is not satisfied with simple control.
They firmly believe in the prophecy of blood sacrifice and believe that the future can be seen through the burning of life.
Afar Nikinos; a high-ranking priest of the Diva tribe, is the extreme manifestation of this belief.
During a blood sacrifice ceremony, he received an unsettling prophecy:
"A man in single sandals will threaten Diva's rule in Irkos."
After the prophecy spread, the Diva tribe began to search for the "man wearing single sandals".
Coincidentally, just last month, Alaz lost a shoe due to an "accident".
When he returned to Irkos City in a mess, he wore only a single sandal.
It was at this time that Afar Nikinos, who had just completed the Blood Festival, locked his traces through the network of golems all over the city.
The story has developed here. According to common sense, Araz Trinkas should have been sacrificed by the Diva tribe in front of the blood altar.
However, fate always likes to tease those who believe in prophecy
——If you don’t try to prove the authenticity of the prophecy, the prophecy will often not be fulfilled.
The turning point in fate originated from a storm.
As an orphan in war, Arraz made a living by fishing in Pagasai Bay.
The turning point in fate originated from a storm.
On the day of the incident, he rowed a small boat to sea as usual, but he knew that the astronomical phenomena suddenly changed, the storm suddenly rose, and huge waves devoured everything.
The storm tore the sky of Pagasai Bay, black clouds pressed against the top, and the waves slapped the shore like a furious giant beast.
Curly-haired young man Alaz Trinkas held the oar tightly and fought hard against the wind and waves, but his fishing boat seemed so helpless in the storm.

, the whole world is flooded by cold sea water.
He sank into the water, his lungs filled with salty sea water, and his consciousness gradually blurred.
Just when he thought life was over, a purple light pierced the darkness of the deep sea.
In the purple light, a wonderful figure emerged.
Araz felt that his body seemed to be lifted by some warm force. He no longer felt suffocated and found that he could breathe in the water.
He stared at the "Elf in the Lake" in front of him in a daze.
It was a beautiful purple-haired woman with delicate facial features as perfect as a carving.
He has never seen such a beautiful doll?
Her size was as big as a doll, floating in the water, but exuded an indescribable majesty and mystery. Alaz had never seen such an existence before, and he stood there in a daze, not even having time to feel fear.
"I'll ask you-"
The purple-haired woman spoke, her voice was crisp but with some unquestionable majesty.
"Are you the chosen agent in the courtyard?"
Araz was confused by this sudden problem and was confused.
He opened his mouth subconsciously, but said:
"ah?"
When the purple-haired woman heard this, a hint of helpless expression appeared on her face, as if she was very dissatisfied with this answer.
She muttered: "Isn't the lines I designed good enough..."
Then she continued in a serious and careless tone:
“Forget it, don’t care about that. I am the ‘Director of Admissions, Hope, Ahabat’ of the Earthly Court.
Next, I will enlighten you."
Hope raised a finger slightly, and the fingertips emitted a faint light, covering Araz's whole body.
She didn't care whether the curly-haired young man understood or not, and began to explain on her own:
“This is the power Abraham got from Vendtinment III—the miraculous ability of the ‘Mr.’ series.
This is the only chance for you in your life: ‘Garden and Gengeal Entry Enlightenment’.
Not every student can meet the conditions. Only under special times and conditions can I be randomly summoned by Terra's humans through Abraham's [Morbius Ring] combined with the ability of Vandertinment.
Power.
Don't worry, this entry will fit you perfectly and grow with you."
Araz felt that the faint light gradually penetrated into his body, like some kind of mark imprinted on his soul.
A wonderful feeling that was indescribable arose in his heart. Just when he wanted to ask something, he hoped to speak first:
