Chapter 281 The Dead God (Central)
"Die...?" Wright felt his head explode.
If the Lord of Eternal Chi had already died in that oasis area, then... who was the god who was trapped in the dark palace with Wright? Who was the man who fought under the light of searchlights?
If it were a soul... Could it be that Wright, like the Lord of Yong Chi, would have died long ago?
Dozens of complex guesses quickly filled Wright's brain. Because it had just woken up from a long sleep for less than a month, his brain could not handle such heavy and complicated guess information.
A few seconds later, a stream of bright red blood gushed out from his nostrils, like a stream, gushing down like a spring, sliding across the silver unexpectedly clean guard uniform and dripping on the sand and soil under his feet. The blood quickly merged into one with the surrounding sand and soil, losing almost all the moisture, and turned into a dark red tick that seemed to be squirming slightly.
"Sir Wright, what's wrong with you?" "Future" quickly ran to Wright, took out a handkerchief with strange symbols embroidered with silver silk thread that Talia gave him, and handed it to Wright.
It seems that as most of the "old aura" begins to fade away, the "future" completely loses its fear of the "hidden touch" behind Wright.
After helping Wright dry his nose, "The Future" comforted Wright:
"The Lord of Eternal Red I saw has indeed become a dry body. If Lord Wright does fight him, there are only two possibilities. Either, it is the body of the mimicians condensed by the power left by the 'ancient gods'; or it is the spiritual body left behind by the gods after their death.
"Even if the gods suffer severe damage, it will be difficult for them to die immediately, and they will not affect their bodies because of the disappearance of their bodies in the world. Unless they are imprisoned by the Creator or the "Ancient Lord God" from the beginning. Of course, there is another possibility that this "Red Illusion Relic" will devour the incoming people."
"Devour the Inlet?" Wright's inner fear increased a little. Even though the nosebleed was stopped, the inner fear began to churn like a kettle that was gradually heated.
He stood up from his kneeling posture and expressed his inner anxiety:
"I'm afraid that not only the Lord of Yong Chi, but I may have been swallowed up. Because, what I saw in Lord of Yong Chi was not only the gradually increasing 'ancient aura', but also the trace of divinity. The remaining part of Dipser's power in my body told me that the 'ancient god' could not create any divinity, so..."
"So you are afraid of death, right? You are afraid of yourself being dead, or becoming a kind of earth-bound spirit, and you will never be able to leave here, right?" "The Future" smiled:
"But you still exist here. After you say this guess, you still exist, which proves that your guess is wrong. The Creator's "reason" stipulates that any dead person will disappear immediately after knowing the fact that they are dead, and their souls will be annihilated and existence will disappear. This is the self-healing function of the existence of this huge system of the universe.
"If you are still worried that you may be swallowed by the 'old age', you might as well pull your clothes open and stroke your heart with your hands to see if it is still running... blazingly. In a world of extraordinary power, your eyes, nose and ears, and even your brain will deceive you, but the heart will not."
"Heart... won't it?" Wright took off his silver-white guard uniform in confusion, pulled open his linen shirt, and reached out to touch his heart.
The rough skin was indeed hot, so Wright simply looked at his heart, and it was still emitting a blue light, and it was still "beating" like a mechanically accurate but rhythmic.
"It's true, Lord Wright." "The Future" walked to Wright, stretched out his alienated palm and pressed it above Wright's heart, forcibly enduring the "old power", the temperature emitted by the magic source power and the "burning liquid", explained:
"Lord Wright, you should have lost... no, you are a psychic. Haha... Whether it is a lost or a psychic, we actually have no difference. It's just that whether we stand on the side of humans force us into two completely hostile races.
"The biggest difference between the lost and the psychic and humans is the heart. Our heart does not emit the terrifying red light brought by the burning liquid like the 'intentional person', but a gentle blue light, which symbolizes the glory of machinery and technology."
"I know this." Wright took away the palm of "future". He was not used to others touching his chest. Even those who fought side by side, "there will be 'burning fluid' in the heart and blood of the supernatural beings, but because we have extraordinary powers that can be controlled in our bodies, we can suppress and utilize them.
"But the heart of the psychopath will still become a mechanical one, indestructible. This is the 'reason' added by the Creator when setting up the 'unhearted human virus'."
"Master Wright, maybe you already know why our hearts won't deceive us." "The Future" walked behind Wright, turned his back to him, and said in a low voice:
"Everything in the universe is created by the Creator, and all power cannot be countered with the supreme 'power of the Creator'. Even if you are powerful, righteous, correct and brave, you will turn into powder and disappear in front of His power, just a blink of an eye."
As the "future" said, he picked up a withered branch on the ground, slightly driven the dark magic power in his body, and made a snap of his fingers. The branch instantly became powder and fell on the ground and merged with the yellow sand.
"Sometimes I think, maybe Ivan Twenty-second is not as stupid and arrogant as I had previously judged. Our hearts have the ability to resist all illusions, which shows that we are indeed evolving." The "future" turned his body and stared at the eight "dark touches" that were slightly squirming with the wind and said:
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Since the Third Era, which was called the Steam Era by the Cruzedes, mankind has made major breakthroughs in the industrial field. The tower of steel rose from the ground, the "big railway" that ran across the ice and snow wasteland was successfully opened to traffic, the combat planes of the Aerospace Army roared by, and the metallurgical furnace was endless day and night.
"But even though humans have long created steamships, they have not successfully begun the real era of navigation."
"I've been wondering why this is also?" Wright murmured in a low voice, and a brief memory of reading the city of Socra, the empire and the world history flashed through his mind.
The rumbling steam and the lights that were not bright brought him a rare and short peaceful moment without combat missions, but now, he is destined to have such a peaceful time again.
"The Future" did not directly answer Wright's question, but instead introduced history:
"The Putoya people successfully discovered the route from Putoya, the center of the empire, to the southern capital of the Fire Empire, and once occupied the entire "Putoya-Filiga" continent, as well as the "Airan Border Region" independent of the mainland, and even the "Mid-Yan Peninsula" in the south of the Fire Empire.
"There was a great navigator named Gouli Dani. Through a large number of mathematical calculations and navigational calculations, he confirmed that the entire world, that is, the planet we stand on is a sphere. In other words, on the east side of the mainland, the Japanese province of the Fire Empire went east, and what he should have arrived was not the 'Heimian Islands', but the 'imperial area' under Putoya."
"What you want to say is that in fact, the ocean is still eastward, and it is getting darker and darker. The ancient books left during the ages of humans and the Dragon Clan described the existence of the continents and underwater worlds where the 'old' gods lived, but no one could actually get there, right?" Wright asked with his long memories.
"That's true, and..." "Future" reached out to touch the "dark touch" that had already drooped down on Wright's back, feeling the complex patterns and armor-like texture on it, and replied:
"And, Goyuri did see the archipelago with 'ancient plants' through the long-distance telescope, but he could never dock the ships. Finally, when their fleet was rescued by the Fire Empire people on the Hemin Islands, those who shouted to explore the 'ancient world' in the East were all crazy.
"I think it's because their will is so firm that they really see the true appearance of the 'ancient gods'. You know, those of us who often borrow the 'ancient' power can only spy on their existence through dreams and hallucinations.
"So, even if the entire steam era is over, human technology allows them to roam between the sky and spy on the universe where the Creator lives, they cannot enter the real ocean age and find the earth that exists all on this planet."
As the "future" said, he walked to Wright, handed him a firm look and continued:
"But now, I believe that we, the ‘newly created human beings’, including the Lost and the Supernatural, have the ability to resist ‘old’. Our spirits are not overly affected by extraordinary powers, and we can use the magic cast by the Creator to cooperate with them... or fight.
"As long as we can reach the East, the Khitanese..."
Before the words "future" were finished, a roar of thunder that resounded through the world appeared behind the two of them, almost shaking through their eardrums, causing the entire desert area to begin to shake uncontrollably.
