After all, the storm did not last for the full forty-nine terrifying days.

But after another ten days and ten nights, it slowly stopped.

When the thunder that tore through the sky no longer resounded and shook the sky; when the towering storm clouds no longer stood at the end of the sky, separating the sky, sea and earth... At this moment, the sun and moonlight were finally able to pierce the darkness. , respectively illuminate different surfaces of the planet, bringing back the normal cycle of day and night, no longer a lightless world without day or night.

Of course, such extreme and abnormal weather changes on a planetary scale are inherently catastrophic.

There is actually not much difference between lasting for ten days without interruption and lasting for forty-nine days. Anyway, the consequences are devastating, and it is definitely enough to become another mass extinction of organisms...

——However, in such a twisted and crazy world, it is obviously impossible to become a major problem.

——You must know that the ancient gods of the Second Age did not die in a cataclysm, but died at the hands of the ancient sun god, and fell in the most direct war. The so-called lack of sunshine, raging floods, and other disasters are just It's just an insignificant aftermath of the God War.

The entire vast universe is so huge that more than two-thirds of the extraordinary matter is gathered on this small planet. In other areas of the universe, it may take countless galaxies for one angel to appear. On this planet There are at least three-digit places on the planet. You can imagine how scary this is. It almost means that the earth is indeed the center of the universe in this world.

After all, the two pillars of "Tianzun" and "God" both fell on this planet...

There is also the "original", the creator's brief awakening, also on this planet...

Then there are the unlucky Outer Gods, whose essence and characteristics were torn away. It can be said that they have too many symbols and powers, almost all gathered on the earth, enough to give birth to too many. Sequence 0, those are genuine gods.

Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary pure disasters to truly shake the foundation of this world.

Of course, this terrible divine war cannot mean that the situation has not changed, and it still caused extremely serious impacts... It does not mean direct damage and destruction to the world, but it refers to the damage to civilization and society. The huge impact and subversion caused by ideological trends is also a reshuffle of the existing structure, which comes coldly and swiftly.

After all, as early as after the "Pale Age", at the end of the Fourth Age, cracks began to appear in the barrier left by the "original".

This is the beginning of a fatal crisis and the source of doomsday prophecies.

In order to prevent the outer gods from deepening their invasion of reality and prevent the sight from the stars from reaching the earth, today's Seven Gods have chosen to move the kingdom of gods to the star realm to fill the gap. They no longer travel on the earth, and the oracles are almost cut off.

In the current Fifth Age, extraordinary species are gradually dying out. Dragons, giants, and elves have all become records in books, and the sea tribe has long ceased to appear in the offshore waters. This means that extraordinary factors have become hidden in human civilization, and the mysterious world is no longer known to ordinary people. Even the belief in the Orthodox Church has gradually evolved in the direction of seeking spiritual sustenance.

Faith is indeed still faith, but the logic within has undergone subtle changes.

Coupled with the baptism of the famous Russell Era, the industrial revolution and the new trend of thought it set off swept across the northern and southern continents, further consolidating this pattern in today's mainstream society...

until--

This sudden divine battle naturally exposed the mystery and extraordinary brilliance to the eyes of the general public again.

…………

…………

Durant.

This is a small town in the southern part of the Loen Kingdom close to Disi Bay. Because the surrounding terrain is complex and surrounded by mountains on three sides, it is a nearly semi-enclosed environment. Therefore, transportation is very inconvenient, and naturally it cannot develop very well. The total population is only over 7,000. There is no steam train station, and the airship route does not pass through here.

However, this semi-enclosed environment is not entirely without benefits.

For example, some secret organizations probably like this kind of environment and are more inclined to develop their power and operate bases in such places.

In a hotel in a small town, in a room on the fourth floor, a young man with black hair and brown eyes, ordinary facial features, a darker outline, and a somewhat bookish attitude was sitting at the desk in the room, holding a pen in his hand and frowning. He frowned thinking about something. The next moment, he raised his head and looked out the window as if he was aware of it, with a look of joy on his face: "There's a rainbow..."

Sunlight shines through the clouds, and the raindrops become smaller and smaller. One end of the rapidly floating clouds reveals the blue sky.

The deep blue seemed to penetrate everything, setting up a beautiful rainbow.

"hiss--!!"

Klein took a deep breath and stared closely at the deep blue sky and the gorgeous illusory Rainbow Bridge. After a moment, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched himself hard. He grinned in pain, but he also confirmed I realized this was not a dream.

He is really afraid that this war between gods will continue forever. He is afraid that endless storms and thunder will become the norm in the future, lasting for a thousand years and so on. That will be the real disaster... even if it is The current world, existing civilization and society can continue to operate by relying on the power of gods, but it is definitely a very depressing and desperate dark future.

Fortunately, this did not happen.

Last night, the storm seemed to be weakening, just as Mr. Charles... no, President Charles had judged earlier——

The God War is coming to an end.

Because high-ranking beings at that level are far more "rational" than humans imagine. When they find that their actions cannot gain benefits and cannot get the results they want, they will never remain in a meaningless stalemate. Go on, unless the stalemate itself is the result they want.

It’s just that Klein still feels uneasy and worried about this. What if President Charles’s judgment is wrong? What if the situation might be repeated? ...After all, he couldn't truly let go of his worries until he saw everything calm down, the sky cleared after the rain, the clouds broke through the sky, and the sun rose again. ——Until this moment today.

Durant seemed like a remote town that had just experienced an ordinary heavy rain. Apart from the mud on the streets, there seemed to be nothing else.

Not long after, someone opened the closed doors and windows one after another, cautiously sticking their heads out to confirm the weather conditions outside.

Of course, these residents all showed joy on their faces, and they all showed a look of relief, mixed with the look of surviving after the disaster. Some people even knelt down in the mud and cried with joy. There was unconcealable joy in their cries, and they couldn't stop praising the gods they believed in... And this slightly fanatical atmosphere also caused other people's emotions to be infected.

The result was a growing wave of cries of praise and prayer, rising higher than the last, with sopranos and tenors mingling.

The atmosphere at the scene quickly reached an extremely frenetic level, almost out of control, within a dozen seconds.

"..."

"..."

Klein silently watched this scene upstairs, and found that a large group of people had quickly gathered on the muddy street. The dark crowds were crowded, and the expression on his face gradually became a little moved.

He sighed softly, then reached out and closed the window.

He can naturally understand the excitement of these people. Fear is the essence of gods and the essence of faith. From a religious perspective, only those who have seen hell can truly embrace heaven, and their beliefs will become more firm and pious.

Klein recalled his previous feelings and had a very deep understanding of this. After all, even he felt greatly shocked. How much shock would ordinary people feel? It's just that...after this experience, perhaps many people's beliefs have indeed become firmer, but there are definitely many people whose beliefs have been shaken.

Because there is a more powerful fear...

It is obviously more terrifying than the gods they believe in, a huge violence that far surpasses everything...

This is the inevitable result of the war between gods. Every war between gods must be a big impact. For the gods, some anchors will become stronger, and some anchors will be shaken and lose their due effect.

In fact, it is not just war that can lead to such results. Similar things always happen, because as long as the gods and the church forces under them are regarded as listed companies, and the people and believers are regarded as the market, we can I understand it well... Seizing the market and grabbing users is the rule of survival. Even the Third Mystery Society that Klein joined is also poaching people.

The small town of Durant ostensibly believes in the Lord of Storms, and there is only one Storm Church in the center of the town. However, in fact, the clergy in the church have unknowingly developed into young men.

This also caused the Third Mystery Society to grow wildly here, and it had enough cover. Even in the aftermath of the recent impact, the Storm Lord was still protecting this place of faith without noticing anything was wrong.

It can only be said that this secret organization that emerged in the Russell era and the exclusive path they control are a bit too scary...

The most important thing is that the camouflage ability is super strong. Once it lurks, it is almost difficult to detect anything.

Klein shook his head, but now that he was considered a member of the pirate ship, he had no position to say this.

At this time, the noise outside seemed to have been contained. From the sound, people from the church and the police station must have rushed over. The secular and religious combined represented all the authority of the entire Durant town, and they were responsible for pacifying the public. Emotions are naturally the best.

Klein listened to the sounds outside, sighed deeply, and couldn't help but start thinking.

I don’t know how Tingen is doing now. Is it the same situation? The residents are overjoyed to survive the disaster. The Sheriff and the Extraordinaries are working hard to calm the people’s emotions... Speaking of which, Benson and Melissa should still be there. Well, what about the captain and the others? At least they have overcome the current difficulties, or are they still resting in Tingen Hospital?

Although Klein had gone to see it before being taken away from Tingen by President Charles.

But after leaving, I still felt a little worried and couldn't let go.

But this is also a helpless reality. He has no way to stay, because just as he chose to join the Secret Society, a large part of the reason is that the identity of "Cline Moretti" is equivalent to deletion of his account. .

After all, in the Tingen incident, he sacrificed his life at the last moment, even though he bought the most precious time... However, this basically destined the inevitable outcome of his identity. This is an undeniable established fact...

"What's this all about..."

Unable to help but twitch the corner of his mouth, Klein stretched out his hand to rub the center of his brow. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

Before he left Tingen, he went to find out that he did indeed die as a "hero who saved Tingen". The one-time pension that Benson and Melissa received alone amounted to tens of thousands. pound.

And maybe because it was in a sensitive period and was affected by the aftermath of the God War, the church also obviously accelerated the handling of this matter and gave the green light. It not only publicized it in Tinggen, but also directly spread it throughout Loen. It was reported in the newspapers in the kingdom - it seemed that he wanted to make his deeds an example and be directly selected into the "Top Ten People Who Moved Loen".

It is probably the idea that this can be used to encourage the people, boost morale, and thus stabilize the base of the faith.

After all, in the most urgent situation, you happen to encounter the most suitable typical example. Of course, you must take the opportunity to publicize it... Although it is somewhat utilitarian, it is obviously a matter of killing two birds with one stone and benefiting both parties.

But because of this, Klein was actually still in a coma at the time, and he had already been nailed to the coffin board. And when he woke up and learned about the situation, his vision immediately went dark... Of course, later he calmed down and thought about it carefully, but he felt that this might be the best outcome. Relatively speaking, he couldn't think of anything. Better solutions.

After all, if the identity of "Klein" is still alive after what happened, that would be really troublesome.

Because there were many things exposed that he couldn't explain at all, and he didn't dare to explain them. No matter how gentle the Church of the Night's behavior was, there was no guarantee that the stains and suspicions on him would be too heavy... and it might even implicate Captain Dunn and the others. , implicating Benson and Melissa. All in all, this is a result that Klein absolutely does not want to see.

This is not because he has delusions of being persecuted, but because he understands that any powerful organization that develops into a behemoth cannot be without any dark side.

This is true in this world, and it was true in the world before time travel.

"Klein, are you in the room?"

There was a voice outside, followed by a timely knock on the door.

"Yes, yes, please wait."

The young man in the room stopped his wild thoughts and quickly got up and opened the door. He saw a middle-aged man with gray hair standing outside, holding a black box in his hand.

Yassen Veitch, the local parish bishop of the Church of Storms, is also the only official Beyonder in Durant Town. This is very reasonable. After all, Tingen has a population of hundreds of thousands. Officials and wild people combined, there are only more than thirty extraordinary people. So this remote town with only a few thousand people naturally has only this. Configuration.

"President Charles is temporarily busy and has left... I came here this time to bring you the "Collector's" potion ingredients..."

Yasen said, reaching out to gesture to the box in his hand.

"...Please come in."

Klein tried hard to maintain an expression on his face. Although he had long known that the local church had been corrupted by the Secret Society's sugar-coated bullets, when he saw a regional bishop from the Church of Storms specifically coming to contact him and send him a potion, I still think this is all too magical.

As Bishop Yassen walked into the room, he reached out and closed the door, rubbing his brows.

"Collector" is the Sequence 8 name of the Actor Path. Before he left Tingen, President Charles allowed himself to take the "Joker" potion and was promoted to Sequence 8 of the Seer Path. Therefore, he is also eligible for further promotion. "Collector"... This may be the only shortcoming of the player path, its progress is limited by the progress of the other path.

But beyond that, it's almost all about advantages.

The huge improvement brought about by the coexistence of dual pathways and the diversification of extraordinary abilities have given extraordinary people the confidence to deal with more situations, and their spirituality has also been significantly enhanced. This is the most intuitive increase in mana...

Moreover, the Actor Path requires the Extraordinary to "play" another path, so it will not cause additional unnecessary burdens on digesting potions. Extraordinaries still only need to digest the potions of the other path...

It’s just that Klein always feels that something is not right. He is very suspicious of the origin of this path controlled by the Secret Society...

But again, he has already boarded the pirate ship, what else can he do? All in all, he doesn't have much choice now.

————

At the same time, the continent far away in the land abandoned by the gods.

The Taoist figure in white clothes and crown appeared on a mountain peak, looking at the land that had been sinking in darkness for more than 2,500 years before finally regaining light and hope.

He glanced at the tragic landscape riddled with holes and ravines, but he didn't see the falling light spots that should have appeared.

I won’t talk about the trophies that I can only see if I don’t reveal them…

What about the uniqueness that will inevitably be left behind by the evil god? What about the extraordinary properties of the Hanged Man pathway? It should be a complete divinity from Sequence 9 to Sequence 0. Why is it missing?

"Amon, this guy, didn't bite the bait he was supposed to bite..."

The Taoist chuckled lightly, his eyes reflected the mirror image of the past, and saw all the changes in the past, as if there were all kinds of cause and effect.

Finally, the light in the eyes circulated, and the reflected scene was fixed in a scene——

Wearing a black classical robe and a soft pointed hat of the same color, a being quietly appeared on the fragmented and riddled tragic landscape.

This thin figure with black curly hair and black eyes raised his head and stared at the huge magic whip, which was like a sword blade, inserted diagonally into the ground and shot straight into the sky, with a look of fear on his face.

However, in addition to the fearful look, there was more of an impulse of curiosity and eagerness to try. However, he tried very hard to restrain it. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and took it back, without trying to steal the "Use for Gods" Suppressive weapons". After all, there were more important things to do, and he knew that he couldn't be exposed at this moment and alert the other side.

The thief chose to continue dormant, but not long after, bursts of thunder came from the sky, setting off a big storm...

The red moon and the blazing sun complement each other, creating a doomsday scene of chaos and chaos.

This was because the Seven Gods took action at that time, temporarily restraining the extremely terrifying enemy and creating opportunities.

However, the dormant thief did not act rashly, and still waited patiently, until the earth suddenly cracked, and the area thousands of miles away was dented. The rock formations and even the mantle crust seemed to suddenly disappear, carrying the huge whip. It kept falling downwards, as if it was about to fall into the chaotic sea in the center of the earth, before the thief suddenly took action.

At that moment, He suddenly appeared from the shadows, stretched out his hand to catch it... just like an experienced fisherman, squatting on the edge of the empty river, and finally seized the opportunity to catch a big fish.

Immediately afterwards, he activated his ability to directly steal the "distance"——

In an instant, he decisively left the place abandoned by God.
