Chapter 182

To save Klein or not to save Klein, that is the question.

From the perspective of overall quality, Klein is undoubtedly an extremely excellent successor.

He didn't waste any of his available resources and did his best in everything related to promotion.

In addition, judging from being prevented from descending from the gods and participating in the great smog of Backlund, he still possesses a considerable sense of morality and responsibility. Such a person to become the Lord of Mysteries is a perfect choice like a dream.

Amon?unfamiliar.

"Sometimes I really feel that you humans are very twisted." The decayed king peeled an orange for himself, and said while eating, "The more you lose your humanity, the more you need to find a human being with high morality to be the top of the sequence. The good nature of others."

"I heard that Mister 'Gate' from the Fourth Epoch was originally the strongest contender, and then he was polluted in the starry sky because of rituals, and then he was exiled logically."

The hotel owner's daughter looked helplessly at the orange in the hand of the foreign god, but couldn't see that her mother was constantly making her leave with winks.

He glanced at the girl twice, and passed the other half of the orange in his hand nonchalantly.

The girl took the orange flattered and swallowed, not daring to eat it.Her mother bowed behind her back, thanking Him for his generosity.

"It's very strange, why didn't they kill him?" The king of decay stood up, patted his clothes and went back to his room, "Polluted things are only safe if they are completely dead, let alone the way of 'door'. Why? They trust Mr. 'Gate''s morality and humanity so much, so they leave him in our hands, so they believe that he will not be our guide?"

The True Creator was silent for a while, and then spoke after a while:
"It sounds like you've seen him before."

"Of course I have seen him." The Declining King said, "His mental state is very good, and he can still chat when the fallen mother goddess is not affected. But he has forgotten almost everything, because too much memory will give us an opportunity to take advantage of it." , so he threw most of it away."

"As a result, it has become very pure, and there is no other goal except to watch the earth."

"This state is actually very similar to us. In a sense, it is also the same kind."

"...I will protect Klein, the successor of this Heavenly Venerate." The true creator said, "Human beings can't afford to wait anymore."

The Declined King was not surprised by this choice.

"So, you also gave up on Klein and chose his kindness." The Outer God said, "You guys are really interesting. The door has endured nearly 2000 years of unnecessary pain because of his persistence, and his sacrifice did not bring honor And praise, only in exchange for the tragedy of his descendants, even the surname must be given up in order to survive."

"In your group, it seems that individuals with higher moral standards will always be used. Are you advocating kindness and morality in order to squeeze them better?"

"Human beings can't afford to wait anymore." The True Creator repeated, "There is no better choice, and moral kidnapping doesn't matter, he has to do it, and I have to do it too."

The thought of the Outer Gods destroying the clues of Origin Castle almost without the knowledge of the gods made the real Creator feel his scalp tingle.

"My friend, dear ex-lord of the astral world."

Outer God said to him in Edward's tone with a blank face: "You really care about human beings, but realistically speaking, you are still an evil god in transformation. Your participation will increase Klein's other dangers."

"Since this is the case, let me give you a free suggestion. Hei Ye pays attention to him very much, and he has a good relationship with the backhand of Death God's resurrection. Maybe it is also Hei Ye's arrangement. You'd better not pay too much attention to him, I don't want to be implicated by you arrive."

The voice of the true Creator lowered slightly: "It seems that my half body has other plans..."

"I miss the feeling of someone calling my name," said the Decayed King. "But don't shout it next time. It's strange to say it in your language. Human throats can't make my voice."

The True Creator severed the connection.

"It's funny, humans, that you keep putting the flames of your kind on the line."

A smile appeared on the face of the declining king: "From this point of view, I like you."

After being quiet for a while, he began to answer the demon family's prayers:

"Just donate more money to the church. If you have spare money, buy some indulgences. It doesn't matter if you kill someone."

"Becklund's labor shortage is over, and the working hours can be extended. As long as the salary remains the same, people will always come."

"If you can't control your hands, go kill the homeless. Don't bring the pride of the Extraordinary, and give gifts to the councilors according to their liking."

"Focus on food and industrial development, making a fortune from war will help you digest the potion."

Medici looked Klein up and down, comparing the differences between his three faces in his heart.

Klein looked at Medici with an awkward smile on his face.

What's wrong with the true Creator, I destroyed his divine descent ceremony in Tingen, yet he still wants to take care of me? !

What does he want from me?Origin Castle?

I can resurrect once, that is to say, I can resurrect four times in total?What does this number represent?What does fate mean?
Is that really the "True Creator"?Isn't this a crazy evil god who uses raving to brainwash believers and turn them into lunatics?Why does it seem very rational, like a human being?And there was no raving in my head, nor was I suddenly full of praise for the "True Creator"...

Klein thought quietly in his heart, and checked his thinking and cognition repeatedly, making sure that he had not been secretly brainwashed, nor had he become a believer in the "True Creator".

But this is not right?If the "True Creator" has always been such a rational god, it is unreasonable not to be one of the righteous gods, and there should not be so many accurate negative descriptions... and I have met with people from the Aurora Society, especially Mr. A, His madness is real, and so is his belief—the only reason is that the "True Creator" only regained his sanity recently, or in a very short period of time!

Klein's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly thought of the "Sea God" he played.

The originally bloody, primitive and crazy "Sea God" has become a humanoid god similar to a righteous god, and has a holy emblem, and actively responds to prayers and gives blessings... Isn't this the same as my own situation? !
Is this also an incomprehensible anomaly to others?

Moreover, the "True Creator" understood the "Zhou Mingrui" he said in Chinese.Hey, it feels like a time travel novel. I always feel that this world must have a certain degree of connection with the earth, otherwise I can't explain why the time travelers appear together...

Klein was in a state of confusion. He didn't know whether to guess "someone replaced the real Creator" or "the real Creator was originally a person on Earth". He felt that the latter was more likely, because the other party's problems and behaviors were in line with what a god should do. of force.

Then he thought of himself pretending to be a fool.

...Forget it, I'll think about these things later... I can't trust the "True Creator" too much. He is an evil god after all. Maybe the images I see are all my subconscious perceptions, not His real appearance. Huh , I can’t think about it anymore, it feels very sacrilegious...

...Wait, does He already know that I am the "fool" that Aurora will be looking for?

Just as he was thinking wildly, Medici suddenly waved his hand in front of his eyes. Klein was taken aback, and suddenly returned to his senses.

"The Lord said that you are barely the person He is looking for, and you can be treated as a favored person."

With a scrutinizing smile on his face, Medici patted Klein's shoulder vigorously, almost knocking him down:
"Be honored, work hard for the Lord, boy."

Klein looked down at his toes, not knowing who he should praise now.

"The Lord has another word for you, saying that it can answer some of your doubts."

"The Lord said 'the place you are looking for is under your feet'," Medici said.

"And a postscript. 'If you don't understand, just look at the world map'."

The true Creator speaks very euphemistically and very bluntly, which is the hint of his choice after communicating with the decaying king.

To put it bluntly, he is also a little bit speechless, not because he misses his hometown... but because he simply feels that this reality is a bit cruel to a young man who is determined to go home.But it’s better to say it later than to say it sooner. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Since you can’t go back, let’s find a new life goal in this era as soon as possible.

Klein was stunned.

What am I looking for?Where am I going? What is the "True Creator" trying to imply about me?
World map, what do you need a map for?
Is it...

Klein's hairs suddenly stood on end, and goosebumps protruded from his skin in waves like electricity.

He suddenly couldn't care about the powerful and mysterious strong man in front of him. He flew around him and rushed out of the living room - he had noticed before that there was a whole decorative painting of a world map hanging behind the sofa in the living room!
Klein went straight to the sofa under the puzzled eyes of the other people. His heart was beating like a drum. He raised his head and glanced anxiously.

Klein's expression suddenly froze, his eyes slowly widened, and he even stopped breathing.

Pfft!Pfft!
Klein heard his own heartbeat, and one piece of common sense about the current world suddenly popped up in his mind:

"A year has twelve months, 360 five days, and a leap year...

"24 hours a day, six 10 minutes per hour, 60 seconds per minute...

"Prove it's a planet...

"There is one and only one sun and one moon in the sky..."

Pfft!Pfft!Pfft!
Klein's instinct prevented him from thinking about it, but there was still a "voice" in his heart:
Could it be that there has never been such a thing as "time travel", I have always been on the earth...?
As this idea took shape, many details that did not attract his attention erupted like a volcano in Klein's mind:

"The pirates have rumors that at the easternmost part of the Sunya Sea, before entering the ruins of God's War, there are decayed and collapsed steel buildings around the deep-sea ancient well, which seem to be left by humans..."

"The overall topography of the northern and southern continents is very similar to that of North and South America, except that the large area where the two are close was directly erased by some force, forming a violent sea with complicated channels and twists and turns... Also, Sonia Island Just like the big island in the north drifting southward as a whole... Jianhai is like an expanded and connected version of the Great Lakes, where it seems to have been hit by a huge meteorite..."

"On the northern continent, the mountains and rivers have changed a lot, but the overall shape is still barely recognizable..."

Pfft!Pfft!
"Edward Vaughn told Mister Ards that I come from an ancient past..."

The map is a hint of the "True Creator", could it be, could He, really...

Klein's eyes turned black, and he couldn't accept this reality at all!At this moment, he suddenly broke away from playing "The Faceless Man", and even unconsciously revealed the appearance of "Zhou Mingrui"!

"Huh? He still has a face? This looks a bit like an elf..." Medici, who went out to watch with arms folded, smacked his lips, then suddenly frowned, "His condition is not right!"

I can't go back, this is the earth!
Here is the earth thousands or even tens of thousands of years later!What we travel is not the world, but time!

I can’t go back, I can’t go back, I can’t go back, my parents are gone, they’re all dead, I’m missing, I can’t give them old age, our world doesn’t exist anymore, even God can’t do anything Why do I still need to struggle? What is the meaning of my life? There is no need to go any further. Why do I travel through time? I can't go back--

Here is the earth!

Just when the granulation on Klein's body started to squirm, two soul links fell on him at the same time, forcibly stabilizing his thoughts, causing Klein's thoughts to fall into a burning void, stopping his madness.

His eyes were staring, his mind was empty, and he fell sideways in a state that was no different from a faint.

Medici grabbed his arm and carried him to the couch.

Klein lay there straight, still staring straight at the ceiling,
"Why did you lose control just by looking at a map?" Medici didn't know why, but felt that the Lord was unfathomable, "What does it mean that you can't go back? I found it, and I have been wasting my efforts all this time?"

"I don't understand."

Trainor was unaffected: "What to do with him?"

"The Lord is willing to take care of this poor lamb."

Trainor nodded, lowered his head to the other side, curious but dared not speak, quietly looked at the woman in the direction of the living room and said:
"Elaine. You go and watch him."

Elaine's complexion changed, she was a little afraid of this strange man who investigated her thoroughly, she stood up cautiously, saluted, and then moved a chair to the side of the sofa.

Medici whistled: "Good idea. This kid's mind is full of not wanting to live. This is a good opportunity to develop new relationships."

"Admiral of Disease" sat up in shock in dying of illness.

Elaine gave her a complicated look, and closed Klein's staring eyes with a heroic sacrifice.

Zhou Mingrui had a dream.

In the dream, he just got off work and was happy that he didn't have to work overtime today. Overtime work made his barren hair even more precarious.

He was walking happily on the way home with the sign in hand. Now it was the rush hour, the cars on the road were stuck in a long queue, and bicycles and electric cars had already driven onto the sidewalk.While avoiding it, he was thinking about whether to eat his favorite beef brisket stewed rice tonight, or to have a barbecue and then go home and fry two dishes.

In the end, he chose beef brisket stewed rice.

The business in the store is very good, there are so many people, and there are not even seats where you can share a table.Zhou Mingrui took out his mobile phone, thinking that he could just order a takeaway and go home, but the phone seemed to have just run out of battery, and the screen was pitch black, no matter how he pressed it, it wouldn't light up.

It seemed that he could only go home and cook. There was still some meat in the refrigerator, and there was still rice left at noon... He left the shop regretfully and returned to the sidewalk where people came and went.

Obviously, if you walk a few hundred meters along this road, you will see the old-fashioned barbecue stand at the gate of the community, and you will be downstairs at your own house after walking a few hundred meters, but Zhou Mingrui has not arrived at the barbecue stand after walking for a long, long time. .

He looked back suspiciously, and found that the signboard of beef brisket stewed rice was also far away from him. The silhouettes of countless people passing by turned into a gray wall, and the world seemed to be gradually losing color.The people are gray, the passing vehicles are gray, and the signboard of beef brisket stewed rice is yellow on a red background. The color is getting blurred, and everything is like an outline drawn with a pencil on a piece of weathered and whitish paper. .

Zhou Mingrui felt terrified. He thought of the dozens of horror movies and horror novels he had read. He ran towards home. After running on the gray paper for a long time, he finally saw the name of the barbecue stall. Shop sign.

The simple and honest boss, who was waiting for the guests to come after dark, saw him and waved happily under the eaves, and then he also turned into a gray and white human silhouette, with a simple smiling face composed of three arcs drawn on his face.

Zhou Mingrui stopped abruptly, and he walked on the spot hesitantly. A red moon suddenly rose in the sky, covered with eyes-like stars.

The ground under his feet collapsed, and he fell into a large pit that suddenly appeared on the ground, seeing himself getting farther and farther away from the gray world.

In the process of falling, he saw seven rays of light hanging from a high place, saw the floating sea and the ships floating on it, and also saw the image of Backlund appearing in mid-air, and he saw Ben in the shadow. Sen and Melissa saw St. Samuel's Church of the Evernight Church, saw the East District, and saw the Holy Wind Cathedral. People walked, talked and laughed, everything was very real.

The red moon and the sea are behind him, the sky and the earth hang upside down, he falls like a meteor, or rises.

Zhou Mingrui suddenly woke up amidst the severe and uncomfortable falling sensation. He saw the ornately decorated ceiling, the candlesticks and gas chandeliers on the wall, and he saw a decorative painting of a world map hanging on the wall above.

Zhou Mingrui realized that he was crying when the red-haired, green-eyed woman sitting next to him handed her a handkerchief.
