Chapter 663 The End is Near

967

Medici climbed out of the River of Eternal Darkness with difficulty, looking like he was playing the role of a water ghost.

The Mark of Death is of course considered a River Ghost of Eternal Darkness, and the Outer God considerately stepped aside. He touched in the water, touched something again, and stuffed it into his camera.

What is shown above is a dark room, as dark as a tomb.

There were scorch marks left by burned out torches on the surrounding walls, and three high-backed metal chairs could be vaguely seen in the center, with heavy chains wrapped around them. Two of the three high-backed chairs were empty, and only one still had a red human shape left on it, like the blood stains left by a corpse.

"Red Angel" Medici died twice, once was his real death, and the other was when he was swallowed up and died by the City of Disaster. The number of times a person dies will leave many marks in the River of Eternal Darkness, so Medici naturally has two marks.

"The connection between this earlier brand and the City of Disaster has long since ceased to exist. It was replaced by the breath of the River of Eternal Darkness. It has been soaked in it for nearly two thousand years, and it can be regarded as half an angel belonging to the River of Eternal Darkness. King... It is definitely not enough to rely on this brand, but if we take water now, it will arouse the resistance and hostility of the River of Eternal Darkness. Then try to touch the brand of the ancient death god Gray Carrie..."

The fresher brand is of little use because it has just died. Compared with the River of Eternal Darkness, it is more closely related to the City of Disaster. Since there is no need for it, it can be considered as a favor to Ourolyus.

The King of Angels in the hunter path is not easy to use and can only be used as a springboard. When the time comes, you can dive into the River of Eternal Darkness to find a more useful brand. Contacting an unfamiliar source of matter is a dangerous and crazy thing, but if you are not crazy, can you still be called an alien god? The concepts of life and reason are quite nihilistic to the outer gods. They are as nihilistic as the reasons for the creation and destruction of this world. Promotion, authority, strength and higher positions are the real pursuits. Who would mind giving their own life? How about adding some serious excitement and promotion opportunities?

It wouldn't be a loss if he really died. Who hasn't died a few times in the past?

Besides, if something that can’t die dies, can it be called death? At most, it’s considered a failure in scientific research. Just die for a while. Even if it really dies until the world explodes, it doesn’t matter. If we restart it, everyone will be fine. .

The Outer God put away the props with satisfaction and accepted this ancient death mark that was mysteriously connected to the River of Eternal Darkness.

He said hello while approaching Ourolius. Seeing that Medici was still so energetic, Ourolius felt that his heart that had been hanging around was a little relieved.

"What is this ring?" Medici observed the thing, "Orochi, are you imitating the light behind your head on other people's murals?"

"This is..." Ourolius had already prepared his words.

At this moment, Medici's outstretched hand came close to the symbol of the Ring of Destiny, and many images suddenly flashed through his mind, including the ever-lasting mountain fires in the place of his birth and the living things that were always flowing with magma. The volcano has all the scenes of leading troops to fight in the Third Age, and the abjection and death of the Fourth Age. The last scene that flashed was that of the Fifth Age. He was swallowed up by a mountain fire and disappeared by a larger sea of ​​​​fire.

Medici was slightly stunned. These shadows only flashed for a few seconds, but he seemed to be reviewing his life through someone else's perspective.

The last picture is presented in the form of a portrait. Is it because you don’t want to attract the attention of the City of Disaster, and the Sefirot cannot be accurately described? But just when he thought it was over, time suddenly turned back, and the silver-white ring presented another picture to him. Obviously all this is over, but in the new painting, the flame that symbolizes himself has been stripped out of the vast sea of ​​fire, just like when He was first born in the form of a mythical creature.

The Red Priest Path cannot be resurrected, nor can the Witch, nor can the Destiny Path resurrect the dead.

Resurrection from the dead at the level of destiny is somewhat similar to that of "The Stealer". To put it bluntly, it means transferring one's destiny and memory to another person. Rather than being resurrected, it is better to say that the golden cicada sheds its shell, changes its body and continues to live an ignoble life.

"Is this the power of the path of destiny?" As soon as Medici finished speaking, he immediately denied his guess, his expression immediately became serious, and the look he looked at Ourolius suddenly became a little more worried and uneasy, " No, this absolutely cannot be the authority of fate, Orochi?”

"What did you do during this period? Whose power is this, and why is it parasitic on your body?"

"Wait a minute, Orochi, the symbol on your body...have you become a god? So soon? You didn't notify me of what happened!"

Ourolius fell into a brief silence.

His eyes looked elsewhere, as if he suddenly became interested in the ruins of Calderon, and even began to mutter to himself in the air, discussing Calderon's beliefs and style on the architecture of remote areas in the Third Age. What kind of influence has the style had? He began to introduce Medici with great interest to the special folk customs of some city-states in the Eastern Continent that once believed in the God of Death and later converted to Christianity. Finally, he began to circle in circles, seeming to be looking for his brush and paper. I plan to draw something on the spot to record the style of the source of the tributary.

Medici saw him sitting there pretending to be stupid as if nothing had happened, and he really had nothing to say:

"There are no painting tools here. Orochi, don't you think this changes the subject a bit too obviously?"

"You have made no progress in lying and covering up for so many years. You are still the same. No wonder you prefer not to speak when you feel guilty."

Ourolius is also very sincere:

"I didn't expect you to find out so quickly. I had already prepared the content of the lie, but I couldn't use it after you discovered it."

Medici was delighted: "What lies are you going to tell me?"

"I have become a god. This is the power possessed by Sequence 0 of the Path of Destiny." Ourolius lied seriously, "Anyway, Sequence 0 of the Path of Destiny has not been born. Since I am now, then the authority of this pathway is I have the final say."

"……Too."

At this moment, Medici suddenly remembered that he was a spiritual brand, and felt a little complicated for a moment: "You risked the risk and came to Calderon, are you here to see me for the last time?"

"Of course not." Ourolius shook his head, and another man's voice came from behind Medici, answering for him.

The Outer God acted as the narrator with great interest, because He felt that the conversation between them took up too much space: "He couldn't save you, so he chose to accept the help of the Outer God's Ring of Fate. He became a god, but at a price It’s his past and future. But in the present you see, He is still Ouroleus.”

Medici suddenly frowned and looked at Ourolius.

"Don't rush to talk about the Outer God. What's wrong with borrowing the power? Ouro Leus doesn't intend to use these powers to destroy the earth." The Outer God said leisurely. He looked at Medici, "You need to worry about you. future, because if you want to live, you must contact the City of Disaster again, and this time you must capture something and bring it back, otherwise the Ring of Fate will not be able to reconnect your destiny. Ouroleus's sacrifice and sacrifice It’s all in vain.”

"City of Disaster?"

Medici's expression suddenly became a little strange. He frowned and thought for a few seconds, then suddenly asked:

"But, I seem to be in the City of Disaster now."

"Fighting Chick."

……

The chaotic ocean currents returned to normal, and the fish brought to the shore by the ocean currents became the first gift God gave to his believers.

The sun was still hanging in the sky, and there was a solar rain on the northern continent.

Many people had no time to hold umbrellas or took shelter under surrounding eaves, leaving them exposed to the drizzle illuminated by the sun. Their eyes widened. They had never seen rain and bright sunshine appear at the same time. In major churches, it is already known to everyone that the two gods that symbolize the sun and the sea are at odds with each other. Even the people are aware of the gods. There are also alliances and enemies between them.

God is often tolerant and merciful to the believers he recognizes, but he will become a thunder and tyrant to those who do not believe in him.

In a sense, in His view, there are only two categories of life in the entire universe: "believers" and "soon-to-be believers." It seems that there is nothing that He cannot forgive, nothing that He cannot accept, and nothing that He cannot forgive. Allowed—well, except for the Lord of Mysteries.

At this time, the people bathed in the transparent rain also exclaimed.

The wounds on the body were gradually healed, and they slowly returned to the state before the injury. Those old hidden wounds were also treated effectively as never before. Many people tried to throw away the crutches in their hands, and even stood up from the wheelchair tremblingly. Walking on the ground, even the body exhausted by the pain was relieved after being treated by the rain. People who worked in factories full of dust all year round breathed deeply the moist and fresh air in the rain, and their heads no longer ached. There is no longer a heavy feeling of oppression in the throat and lungs.

At the same time, they felt that their minds had become clearer and more peaceful.

Almost everyone in the Northern Continent felt the mercy of the gods at this moment. Miracles were no longer just stories about the gods’ favored ones or distant and nihilistic stories in the holy scriptures, but actually happened to everyone. This time the miracle was even greater than usual. They felt that their hearts seemed to be soothed by the sunshine. People kept falling to their knees and praising the sun loudly to the sky without any knowledge.

This formed a wave, and more and more people knelt down. Finally, there was no one standing in the entire street. The terrifying religious fanaticism swept through cities one after another like a hurricane.

More and more people were crying in the rain. They sincerely repented of their foolish actions of following other gods in the past, and begged the sun for forgiveness. I was blind in the past, but now I finally see clearly who is the real God of mercy.

Everyone saw the city hanging high in the sky. At this moment, everyone's heart automatically defaulted to Levished as a symbol of the sun, the place closest to the gods, and a symbol of heaven.

Their hearts were filled with sunshine and could no longer accommodate other gods.

……

While the people of other countries wept bitterly and gratefully accepted the sun's faith, Intis simply cheered for the miracle.

They skipped the step of conversion and were bathing in the sun rain on the streets, singing and dancing to celebrate the appearance of the gods. Under the interpretation of the church, they regarded the sun rain as a symbol that the sun god had obtained the authority of the ocean and wind.

On the other side, the Secret Church seemed extremely deserted. People seemed to have all returned to their homes to take shelter from the rain, and no one could even be seen walking on the street.

The priests of the Church of the Creator are urgently recording what happened today, and are planning to hold a ceremony immediately today. After recording, they will celebrate the miracle that happened today every year. This proposal was not blocked at all and was unanimously agreed from top to bottom. The devout believers were also eager to participate in outside activities. After finishing the work at hand, they ran out to sing and dance with the people.

Irena looked at the lively crowd outside. Her colleagues asked her to come with them. She smiled and refused, saying that she still had things to do.

At this moment, she felt that her faithless heart was shaken for some reason, probably because the scene in front of her was so beautiful. She actually had an urge to believe in the Creator from the bottom of her heart.

As long as you follow Him and believe in Him, you can live a good life, so who would refuse?

At this moment, Irena suddenly saw someone entering the Cathedral of Light. When she took a closer look, she saw a completely unfamiliar white-haired old man, but behind him was a familiar figure.

"Your Highness Hermes."

Irena guessed that this strange old man was the person in charge of the Psychological Alchemy Society. Audrey's appearance also confirmed this. She said hello to Audrey, and then she noticed that there was a strip on the back of her skirt. The big golden retriever dog is shaking off the rainwater.

"Irena, pious child, it is a pleasure to meet you."

Hermes smiled, his smile was sincere and contagious, and Irena couldn't help but feel excited.

“Behold, the Lord has returned.”

Standing on the steps of the Cathedral of Light, Hermes turned his head and looked gently at the people laughing, singing and dancing on the street. Irena looked at him, and Audrey also looked at him. Audrey felt that he seemed to see through I saw something else in the scene before me.

"The Lord has taken back His half body and authority, and the Kingdom of Heaven is about to come."

"He was so merciful that He sent down the rain for us, and He also gave this mercy to the pagans, giving them a chance to reform."

"From now on the sun will shine on this world, and no one will feel pain and sorrow anymore - there will be no more tragedy."

He closed his eyes and said as if talking to himself:

"There will no longer be tragedy in this world, there will no longer be pain and despair, children will no longer have to wander in corners, people will no longer tremble in the haze of war, hunger and all injustice will disappear."

"really?"

Audrey also looked at the outside world. She stretched out her hand, and the transparent rainwater fell into her palm, which was warm.

"Really, because..."

"The sun will never set again."

……

God looks down upon his place of faith.

He is in a pretty good mood now. In the past, having less than 10 million more believers was not something to be happy about. At best, it was an added bonus after a victory in the war and a successful missionary mission. His believers are united by countries, and the scale of the petri dish is the planet. Now the earth is not completely owned by him, and there are many undisciplined guys who are causing trouble. God feels a little annoyed at the same time, because this is after he wakes up. I feel a little happy about my first place of faith.

He uses the two paths of "the sun" and "the hanging man" as the basis of the present, and the ocean is also in his hands.

The lack of "Imaginary" and "White Tower" is also a noteworthy thing for Him. Although the Sefirot has the full power of extraordinary properties, God has not really lost the ability to "Imagine", but has taken away His human authority. There is no doubt that he is still challenging the dignity of the god - not to mention that the demons of mystery and knowledge are not considered adjacent paths to him. It is already strange to take away his authority that symbolizes "omniscience" and "omnipotence" when it is clearly unable to accommodate it. , coupled with the mysterious involvement, this matter became a pure provocation in the eyes of God.

Because the "Utopian" is a little more special than the "Hanged Man".

If "Utopia" initially controls the "Sea of ​​Chaos" and accommodates the second uniqueness and corresponding Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics to a certain extent, he can rely on "Utopia" to manifest the remaining, false symbols and Authority, allowing yourself to achieve a level beyond the sequence in a short period of time, with half the strength of the past.

God clearly knows that at the end of the Third Age, the ancient Sun God's plan was to resurrect immediately at Sasril in the "Tour of Giants" after being "assassinated", and to take back the uniqueness and the three powers of "The Hanged Man" first. He acquired the Sequence 1 Extraordinary Characteristics, became the True God of Sequence 0 again, and then used the first "Profane Slate" placed next to him to initially control the "Sea of ​​Chaos".

With this foundation, let Adam, the "utopian angel", awaken and return to the subject to form support.

When such a system is established, the ancient Sun God will use the herding ability of "The Hanged Man" and the means of separating virtual personalities of "Visionary" to control the uniqueness of the three paths of "Sun", "Reader" and "Sailor" and a copy of Sequence 1 Extraordinary Characteristics each, allowing you to be infinitely close to the old days in terms of personality and strength, while maintaining a minimum level of stability.

He was afraid of the ancient will and did not want to directly contain the "Sea of ​​Chaos", so he made such a careful plan.

However, after two epochs of struggle and self-rescue, the Creator finally sacrificed himself to God. This was the smart thing to do.

——However, before taking over this world, you still have to put it in order, otherwise your followers will not be able to survive safely.

------

God looked towards the star world. With the arrival of the Lord of the star world, all the beings in the star world felt great pressure.

When the Son of Chaos saw a more difficult guy appear, he immediately cursed in a low voice, and actually distorted space and time. His body disappeared directly from the star world and appeared near the barrier. He seemed to be ready to take himself to be contaminated at any time. The uniqueness escapes.

The Hidden Sage also quickly hid, and the only one who responded to God's gaze was Lilith with crimson eyes.

He looked at where his gaze came from, his somewhat dull expression became lively and maternal, and he opened his arms.
