MTL - Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds-Chapter 897 Shadow of the Era

In the cold and dead universe, the star palace floats in the cracks of the world.

Apophis overlooks the mortal world from the broken head of the Star Dome Bridge.

He had stared at the three revolutions of the planet of the air of return, the waters of change, the solid earth, and the fire of the core, as if still mourning the passing of Phaethon.

Behind him, the gods of the Star Palace stood silently, looking at the back of the Destroyer Star.

"I object!"

A star palace **** sternly said: "Now let's go to the mortal world, there is no legion to accompany, there is no star dome bridge to support, there is no purge agreement, this is just a death sentence!"

Apophis slowly opened his eyes.

He turned back, his eyes were blazing with flames, and he said solemnly, "That's right, I want you to die."

Such a response was unexpected by the gods.

The God of the Star Palace who asked the question suppressed his anger, knowing that there must be a reason.

He said coldly, "Explain."

"I ask you to come to the mortal world in the next time and bring disaster to the mortal world again."

"To call and guide our servants who are hidden in the world, and light a beacon on the earth."

"To unblock and release our generously forgiving begging losers to keep their promises."

"Use all the cruel and despicable means you can think of to make the mortal world cry."

Every word of Apophis evoked the echo of the star ring behind him, and the flames of destruction shone brightly, indicating the indifference and cruelty of the destroyer... not only to the enemy.

"What's the point of all this?"

The handsome **** who asked the question was Adonis, Song of the Spring, Silver Star Lotus, and he said rudely: "The several attacks you planned have all failed, Phaethon, Bennu, Heli S, Rahma... the names that once resounded in the stars keep falling, falling in this ordinary war!"

"The Xingqiong Bridge is broken, and our greatest advantage cannot be exerted. We should repair the Xingqiong Bridge as quickly as possible and launch an all-out attack, but you continue to launch the offensive and send the noble gods to the mortal world to die—"

"Why all this?"

Hearing the questioning of his colleagues, this was a complete disobedience to authority, and Apophis should have been furious... But he was surprisingly calm, turned to face the gods of the star palace, and spoke calmly.

"There's only one reason," he said. "There are fire thieves down there."

When the gods heard this, their expressions changed and they became noisy.

Although Rahma had brought this news before his death, most of the star palace gods regarded it as a boring rumor, and now, Apophis actually said it himself...

"You are crazy!"

Another **** of the Star Palace, Messild, scolded: "You and I both know that there will be no more fire thieves in this world, otherwise it will not be your turn to give orders to the Star Palace! Fire thieves are born with gods, and every The birth of a famous fire thief means that the harvest is about to begin, this is the law of the universe - you tell me, since a new fire thief has been born in the mortal world, where is the master?"

"The fire thief below is called Kant."

Apophis looked at him and said lightly, "He is from another world."

The **** was about to refute subconsciously, but the next moment, he opened his mouth wide, unable to make a sound—

The silence spreads like magic.

This news is like a bomb, causing these so-called gods who have experienced countless years and their minds have become numb and indifferent, their minds sway, their souls are shaken, and there is a great scream in the spiritual sea.

want to refute.

want to question.

Want to scream.

Want to cheer.

All the sounds he wanted to make were blocked, and his face slowly turned from surprise to ecstasy.

So much so that the ultimate... frenzy and excitement.

Meridian trembled: "You... no, please be more detailed!"

Apophis's expression was always flat.

He explained calmly... from the beginning.

"Remember Asa's prophecy for Rahma?"

"He stood out a long time ago and was selected by the pioneers, allowing him to enter the end of the land to observe in advance, and finally comprehend the magical power of the mist... This is not in line with the rules. Among you, there are many who are dissatisfied, at that time Asa was not planted by the nether. Stoke to death, in order to convince the crowd, so make a prophecy for Rahma."

"Said he would make a greater contribution with a great sacrifice."

"You will know what happens next."

"Strange things happened one after another in the mortal world. Rahma was sent by me to investigate. In the Broken Isles guarding the gate of Ilan-Tair, he encountered an unprecedented powerful enemy and directly ate a radiant radiation."

"The Doomsday Clock was activated, and we activated the Extinction Protocol, while rescuing Rahma, while deploying the World Extermination... Then the radiant spear with a power far exceeding the previous era went upstream along the Star Dome Bridge, not only burning Rahma to death Horse, and also lost Hermes. The Star Dome Bridge was smashed, not to mention the destruction of several legions, even the Star Ring was broken, and even the extinction mechanism was almost terminated, the loss can not be described as heavy."

"Since that inexplicable defeat, I've been thinking about two things."

"First, what happened in the mortal world, such a breakthrough in warfare technology actually happened."

"And the second thing is a hundred times more important than the first."

"That is…"

Apophis said in a stern tone: "Rahma's 'sacrifice' has blown up the Star Dome Bridge, lost Hermes, several legions were annihilated, and the Star Palace was almost destroyed - what the **** is this great? contribute?"

"And you all know that Asa's ability to prophesy was born from the end of the land, blessed by the master, and robbed a piece of Akatoum's time fragment, there is absolutely no chance of any error."

"I've been curious for days and I've been wondering what Rahma has contributed."

"It wasn't until these few days that I fully understood what this contribution was. It was indeed a great contribution... But the results of this contribution were already revealed after a few days."

He paused for a moment and saw that the gods of the star palace were staring, but they only listened, did not speak, and asked "what is the result" without any fun, and couldn't help feeling a little sullen.

It was too painful to keep this secret alone.

but…

He looked at those eyes, tried his best to suppress his excitement, and spoke in the calmest tone.

"A few days after Rahma died...I got a message from my master."

As expected, the gods of the Star Palace were all in an uproar.

Among them, there are a few who already know the content of the master oracle. After all, the selection of Bennu and Phaezong Lower Realm was drawn by lottery... Of course, the most loyal, firm, and effective ones must be drawn by lot.

But at that time, although they were excited, they failed to think of the prophecy of Rahma.

And now the vast majority of the gods of the star palace are dancing in ecstasy and almost weeping.

The decree of the master... the decree of the master!

The Supremes who rule, guide, teach, lead and protect them are coming back!

"Master said..."

All the noise disappeared, and in the vast universe, there was only boundless emptiness.

Destroyer Star said word by word: "Mortal, enemy, stop, Kant."

The meaning of these four words is obvious.

"I can only listen to the master's order unilaterally. I can only perceive that the master is still very weak, far away from us, as if he has just been awakened..."

A star palace **** murmured: "Is it Rahma? But how did it wake up its master when it died in front of us? This is unreasonable..."

Apophis ignored him and continued: "Since it is the master's order, then I must obey. Phaethon and Bennu are descended to the realm because of this."

And the God of Star Palace said sadly: "They are all dead."

"Benu was ordered to investigate the Western Continent, Phaersson was ordered to investigate the Eastern Continent, and I asked them to search for the whereabouts of the Aurora named Kant... It's a pity that after Asa's death, the impermanence of fate is beyond our ability to speculate."

"Who would have thought that Kant, whose name was pronounced clearly from Aurora, and was indeed from Aurora, was already active in the Western Continent at that time and already had a considerable foundation."

When Apophis said this, he couldn't help but sigh.

The Star of Enlightenment, the Eye of Prophecy, the All-Seeing Asa, his death in the long history of the star palace is enough to be called a major loss, and it is bizarre, even terrifying.

The cause of his death has always been a mystery, because for thousands of years he has been under strict protection, never set foot on the battlefield, and tried his best to conceal his own information. God's message, let alone a plan to kill.

Moreover, with the three major time abilities of the master's blessing, the fragment of the dragon **** and the final power, he can almost spy on the slightest changes in the long river of time. Such a time **** with such powerful abilities could not predict his own death. , was killed inexplicably on an ordinary day like this!

Asa's death not only brought significant tactical and strategic losses to Star Palace, but also had a far-reaching impact. At least the gods of Star Palace felt regret and hatred every time they thought of it.

- If it wasn't for Asa's accidental death, how could the master disappear for no reason, so that Star Palace could not detect any signs in advance!

Burying this poisonous remorse and hatred in his heart, Apophis continued to speak.

"I ordered Bennu to deal with Yilan Tyre's tail first. Who knew that he would be targeted by Kant after he went down to the realm. Like you and me, he refused to believe that fire thieves appeared in the mortal world again. Knowing that, when he was attacked by fire thieves without any preparation, the fate of his fate can be imagined.”

"Before he died, he must have discovered the secret of the fire thief, but unfortunately he didn't have the chance to spread it out."

At this time, the **** of the star palace said: "Then Kant, is it the fire thief?"

"Yes, Kant, who was emphasized and named by the master, is the fire thief, and the rebel who killed our clansmen, destroyed the Xingqiong Bridge, and rebelled against the star palace..."

Apostle's tone fluctuated.

He thought Erson.

"Aware of Bennu's death, Phaethon went to the Western Continent. He did not confront the fire thieves head-on, but found the leader of the Arcane Council, and wanted to start from here, leveraging changes in the mortal situation and seeking opportunities. ...He succeeded, confronting the Fire Thieves head-on in a post-coup encounter."

"Totally judge the identity of the other party."

"And from the weapons, thoughts, strength, morality, etc. shown by the other party... infer the fact that the other party is from a different world."

Destroyer Star's gaze roamed back and forth, flashing with a dignified and excited light.

"Condition one, fire thieves are born with gods."

"Condition two, our **** is no longer in this world."

"Conclusion one, fire thieves will never appear in the mortal world."

"Condition three, Kant showed all the power and characteristics of being a fire thief."

"Condition 4, Kant has a high probability of being a person from another world."

"You..." he said quietly, "what conclusion will you draw?"

After a strange silence, fierce roars followed one after another.

"Let's go!"

"conquer!"

"Gift!"

"Welcome back!"

The numb and cold souls have become hot, and perhaps only their masters can wake up the souls that have been dead and silent for thousands of years.

Apophis just looked into these warm, festive, excited and manic eyes.

He said calmly, "Phaethon died for this."

The Destroyer Star watched every face until the last Star Palace God returned to calm from the excitement.

Then he said, "Salute him, remember him, recite his name."

The star palace gods did so.

"After deducing this clue, I discussed it with Fahzon for a long time, and finally came up with a plan."

"Because of our incompetence, the Xingqiong Bridge was destroyed, and we were unable to suppress the realm, destroy the mortal world, capture Kant, and we were unable to interrogate the coordinates and orientation of that world."

"If this news leaks a little, Kant escapes and abandons the mortal world. We will regret it for the rest of our lives... Fate is unknowable, and the most unknowable fate is enough to make us fear."

"We don't even know the details of that world - a visitor from another world makes us passive to such a degree, how powerful will his civilization be?"

"so…"

He sighed: "There is a great sacrifice."

"Bait with Griffins, bait with our Tome of Infinite Wisdom, bait with unprecedented victories and opportunities to integrate the mortal world... Design a perfect situation."

"Let Kant not be suspicious, but also properly involve his energy, let him be busy as a matter of course, and have no time to think about the possible omissions in the details - on this basis, let Phoeson die at the hands of Kant."

"To burn yourself completely, you can't be extracted and leaked by the power of fire thieves."

"To create a sudden and intractable situation, so that Kant can choose a more convenient place to deal with."

"In this plan, there are countless links that may go wrong. If something goes wrong, the plan will fail completely, and Phaethon will have to die in vain... I'm ready, if he doesn't succeed, then you go, one One by one, we will finally achieve our goal.”

"—mark the way of returning home in that world."

Apophis said softly: "He succeeded, and I will let the master know that he is braver than anyone else."

In awe, Messird said condensedly: "We should live up to this sacrifice... Since the beacon has been engraved, can we consider the expedition?"

Apophis lowered his eyes: "No."

"please explain."

"I know that you are eager to flatter your masters, but the success of Phaethon's flaming sacrifices cannot be used lightly."

Destroyer Star said decisively: "In my perception, the power fluctuations of Phaethon's burning soul did not appear in the mortal world, that is to say, he successfully completed the branding in the other world."

"The complete homecoming road sign will not only irradiate the target planet and show the owner the way home, but also provide the owner with enough energy."

"It can be used as the starting energy in the worst case, to make the master start to recover, and it can also make the master contact us more clearly and smoothly... At that time, whether it is guarding this place, strangling fire thieves, or launching an expedition to welcome the gods. , we will all abide by its orders.”

The void vibrated and the soul said, "What about now?"

"Now, we wait and, as I said, begin the next phase of the battle against the mortal world."

The Destroyer Star stretched out his hand, and countless light spots gathered in the void, condensing into a lifelike planet.

"During the period before Faersson's death, I discussed the three stages of this plan, and made a careful plan. The preparation before the plan was perfect, and the execution of the plan was also perfect."

"And the cover after the plan must also be 100% completed."

He pointed to the planet, turned around and said, "Starting a turmoil in the mortal world, the target is the fire thief... Let him run around, no time to turn his attention back to his hometown... At least most of them must be contained."

"I see."

The Star Palace gods have already got the answer they want.

"Are we going to the lower realm now?"

"Do not."

Apophis's voice softened: "Phaersson has found enough useful information... If you want to divert Kant's attention, he must either attack the enemy and save him, or firmly attract his infinite hatred."

"And these two points, I already have a lot of experience."

His eyes turned to the void, condensed at a point of the planet's projection, and the picture was enlarged and enlarged.

In the northern snowfield, someone is trekking hard.

"This ant is the obsession of the fire thieves, and it is also the seed left by Phaethon."

"Let's start with him..."

Meanwhile, Earth.

Murray, white house.

Oval Office.

The commander-in-chief of the strongest country on earth, with his fingers crossed, shouted to the phone clearly.

"NO," he said. "I repeat, NO. Whatever you find, stay away from DC, I don't want to see it, and I'm not going to visit it."

"Send it where it should be sent, and then find some scientists and staff with safety awareness and moral literacy to study it, remember to keep it confidential, remember to be safe, and remember to be careful."

"Don't screw it all up like the [beep-] sons in Hollywood movies, because I promise you, if something goes wrong, we're going to be like the [beep-] fagwoment in Hollywood with guns, Suicides and nuclear bombs to pick up the slack, and never acknowledge your identities and pensions."

"Listen, I don't know if this thing came from aliens or where, I'm even a little regretful and nervous, maybe we can use it to talk to Kant and exchange it for something more useful..."

"Ok, ok, I'm not going to say it, but, I repeat, be careful, be careful, don't screw it up. Don't attract alien killing droids, don't attract bodysuit genocide lunatics from aliens, don't Unleashing strange viruses that turn people into zombies."

"Do every security check, check every day, don't make Hollywood idiots, if you're going to ship samples or something like that, **** them with a helicopter, don't **** crash over the car... oh, ma Zeffak, me he Mom is getting more and more uneasy, or should we really contact Kant?"

"Sheet, I'm **** cutting your budget for next year..."

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Ah Chuan threw the microphone on the table and looked around blankly.

"Damn, what am I afraid of? Kant?"

He tore off his collar, frowned, and thought, "Am I going to do something?"

PS1: I had insomnia on the night of the jet. I slept for four hours. After waking up, I carried on like an idiot for six or seven hours. I couldn't help but sleep again. Alright, I'm going to sleep again, I'm still 5,000 words away from the update, I'll try to adjust it as best I can.
