"I see."

"What made us choose the opposite direction......" The Lord of the Mists muttered to himself.

The fire in the room has been extinguished, and the snow is falling outside the window.

He pushed open the door and walked down the steps, his footprints leaving long marks on the snow.

The whole city was silent, and the Lord of the Mists walked slowly, stopping in front of every pedestrian in the street, as if he wanted to remember what everyone looked like, or simply enjoyed being in it.

Taking a deep breath, the Lord of the Mists closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the entire city began to crumble, until finally, a small cemetery remained.

"I may not be able to kill you, but I can destroy this plane."

He opened his hand, and the tombstone in front of him shattered, and several coffins emerged from the dirt, and inside were buried a part of the Lord of the Mist.

Countless souls poured in, twisting and struggling to form several vague human forms, reaching out and flicking the faint light into these forms, and then he gave the final order.

"Go and destroy, start with the Dragon Court!"

Snort!

A piercing sound of breaking wind sounded, and several figures burrowed into the depths of the sea of souls.

Meanwhile, Roger was led by Ophelia through a dense valley to a mountain peak not far away.

"I don't have a chance, but you can."

Ophelia stretched out her hand to connect the dots, and then the scenery in front of her changed, and the mountains in the distance disappeared, replaced by a dark abyss as far as the eye could see.

But even so, Roger could clearly see the huge corpses stretching tens of thousands of meters at the bottom of the abyss.

"It's ......"

"Part of the Serpent of the World!"

"Reshaping me consumes almost all of the Serpent of the World, but like I once said, the Serpent of the World is not a creature in the ordinary sense of the word."

"It is the protector of the rules of this plane, a embodied creature, as long as the threat has not been cleared, even if it is killed, it will not be used for long, it will recover on its own."

"At that time, most of it was absorbed by me, but even so, after so many years, this corpse was created out of nothing and gradually recovered."

"Maybe it won't be long before a new world serpent will be born."

"It may become stronger, it may become more complete, but now, Nasero is no longer what it used to be, and the most important thing is that he has completely soulified himself and embarked on a special path."

"It all starts with nothingness, and then ends with chaos."

"He's a real genius."

"So, you must reinvent yourself and forge your flesh and blood from the body of the Serpent of the World, only then can you get close to the Source and become a transcendent on the same level as us."

"Fusion?"

Roger couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle as he looked at the massive body of the World Serpent.

"It represents all things, it's vast, it's the beginning, it's not pure enough, and what you have to do is not just merge."

"No amount of mastery will help you in the next battle, but you can strengthen your body to the point of being like me first."

"Then use the body as the soul to create a defensive position, and if you do this, you will basically not be easily destroyed by Nasero."

"When the time comes, I will be responsible for consuming his soul power, and you will find the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on him, only if he is constantly weakened can we find a chance to seal him."

"Seals?"

"Only a strong soul can kill Nasero, and I can help you master the origin in a clever way in a short time, and have physical strength similar to mine."

"But the strength of the soul is not my specialty."

"So we can only seal him now, but we can't kill him, but we still have time, after sealing him, you will grow, and his soul will get weaker and weaker, and you will get stronger and stronger."

"Someday you can kill him!"

Ophelia laid out her plan.

"But how do we seal him?"

"With my body, my body is the best vessel!"

Ophelia replied.

"Yourself?!"

"Yes, your body can build a defense for your soul, then I can naturally be a barrier to seal him."

"I don't have a soul, and Nacello's influence on me is limited, as long as we can weaken him and find a chance to wreak havoc on him, we will definitely succeed."

"I'll fall asleep then, and you'll take care of the rest."

"Destroy his soul and I can revive it."

"What should I do?" There was nothing to hesitate about, Roger had no choice.

"Follow me."

Ophelia fell into the abyss with Roger's body, and a faint light lit up around the two of them. Then it slowly landed on the forehead of the Serpent of the World.

The closer look at this massive creature shocked Roger's heart, and he could even feel the scales of the other party tremble.

"It's just the last heart."

"All you have to do now is take his place in his heart, and then completely control this body, and all that's left is to fuse and make him your body."

Ophelia admonished.

"You have to always remember who you are, don't get lost in that vastness, once you lose yourself, you become its nourishment, you become part of its heart."

"Then we'd fail."

"I see." Roger nodded.

Ophelia explained a few things to be aware of, and with a wave of her hand, the Serpent of the World's hard scale armor was sliced open, and Roger slipped into it with a streamer.

The whole thing was amazing, he didn't smell the blood, nor did he feel the squeeze of entering the body of a massive creature.

The surroundings are strange, and it is closer to spatial teleportation.

"Keep your heart." Ophelia's voice came.

The sound of "Reshaping and Fusion ......" gradually became inaudible, and Roger was in a trance for a while, and then felt his body gradually melt.

He writhed uneasily.

Laugh at...... Rumble!

What was that? Did I hit something?

Some doubts welled up in his mind, and then Roger opened his eyes.

Strange darkness and then the darkness disappears and the surrounding regains light.

"The woman...... It's Ophelia, but strangely, she doesn't seem to see me. Roger tried to open his mouth to speak, but no sound came, and after a few attempts, he quickly gave up on the idea.

"Strange, why are you here?"

"What am I doing?" Looking up, Roger found his gaze easily piercing the darkness and even the world, and then looking farther away.

"What's that...... Court, betrayal, poisoned wine, something boring. Roger muttered to himself.

"That woman is very ruthless, she first killed the king with her own adulterer, and then stabbed the adulterer to death in bed, and a beautiful face and sweet mouth can deceive everyone."

"She should die." Roger muttered casually, and then he saw the triumphant woman in the glorious moment of the crown on her head......

There was a bang and it exploded, and it became a cloud of minced meat.

"It's funny." Roger laughed, glanced casually, and then noticed that the scenery around him had changed.

"A pair of sweet lovers...... A struggling avenger, and this ...... Hmmm......"

It's a strange feeling to see something new with every movement of his eyeball, and not only that, but some of his thoughts also seem to interfere with other people's actions.

and even decide their life and death.

Slowly, the expression on Roger's face faded away, and no emotion was visible in the corners of his eyes.

The so-called joys and sorrows, all these have become the most ordinary things, and they have become part of the normal development of all things in the world.

So he stopped meddling.

No more anger over betrayal, no more joy for happiness.

He just watched indifferently and became the arbiter on the high.

At this time, Ophelia, who was at the bottom of the abyss, also looked at the giant snake lying on the ground with a blank face.

The serpent's eyes were half-open, and there was a clear presence in its pupils.

"Failed?"

Ophelia didn't seem to be in a hurry, and she didn't have any intention of helping.

In the world of consciousness, Roger continued to wander, forgetting even the concept of time, and finally forgetting himself.

One after another.

Countless worlds crossed in front of him, and finally when he passed through a certain world, his emotions beat imperceptibly.

"What happened?"

For Roger at this time, any slight change in mood was precious, and he paused in some confusion, focused his attention, and then searched carefully.

Eventually, he found a place where he was able to change his mood.

A castle.

"Why does it feel familiar?"

"A castle, where have you seen it?"

"How many similar castles have I seen, ten thousand or a hundred thousand, or more?"

After a careful glance at the castle's structure, he saw a statue standing on the edge of the drawbridge.

And......

A man with a flirtatious face.

A woman who burns like a flame.

And all sorts of people in the castle.

Bit by bit, all of a sudden, his soul trembled, and the terrible traction hit, and Roger's spirits lifted.

"What's wrong with me?"

"By the way, I remember, it's Ophelia, fusion reshaped!"

Rediscovering himself, the sights vanished from view, and he felt like he was huddled in a cramped space.

It wasn't the blood vessels that were wrapped around him, but the countless intertwined rules.

This is Roger's approach to the origin of the world so truly, he sees it all clearly, countless times beyond the lines on Ophelia's body.

"Abandon the complexity and focus on your own purity." Roger remembered Ophelia's reminder, but he soon changed his mind.

In the depths of his consciousness, the hunter's hut rumbled, and every second something new added to the room, an oil painting, a tapestry, a mirror, or a delicate comb.

It all makes the Hunter's Lodge a lot more real.

But soon there were more and more things, so many that there was nowhere to put them in the hunter's hut!

Crowded and inflated.

There was a deafening sound in his soul, and these things desperately tried to get close to the door in the depths of the hut, and Roger resisted until he couldn't bear it anymore!

Then there was a loud bang, and a clear crack appeared in the walls of the hut, which burst with a bang.

Card!

The same situation also appeared in reality, the huge snake body suddenly straightened, thick blood oozed from the scale armor, and then completely disappeared.

The faint light of the soul was extinguished, and the bottom of the abyss returned to its former silence.

Ophelia held one position for a long time, she didn't say anything, and the expression on her face didn't change at all.

Then turn around and leave.

But at this moment, a dazzling light lit up, and the huge snake body shrank.

10,000 meters, 100 meters.

until it returns to the size of a normal person.

Ophelia felt abnormal, and as soon as she turned around, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

"You ......"

She frowned slightly confusedly.

Roger's five rings flashed on his body, but she always felt that Roger's five rings at this time were very different from theirs.

"You made it."

"Of course."

"Your ring seal is peculiar." After a while, Ophelia said dryly.

This ring is very Olympic, and Roger also feels helpless about it.

When he was thinking about it, he stretched out a palm in front of his eyes, and almost subconsciously raised his hand to block.

Airplanes!

Space shook, and rolling hills were leveled.

Roger didn't move, but Ophelia took a few steps back.

"Good!" A flash of surprise broke out in her eyes.

"It's even much stronger than I thought."

Then she threw it casually, and Roger caught it.

"Sword?"

"It's exactly the same as what you're used before, but the material is more special." Ophelia replied.

Roger clenched the long sword in his hand, the unpretentiousness reminded him of the woman in front of him, and a wave of doubt rose in his eyes.

"Could this sword be her own ......?"

"Familiarize yourself with your own strength, and we're going to hurry up." Ophelia snapped.

"In such a hurry?"

"How long did it take to fuse just now?"

Roger's heart skipped a beat and he asked hurriedly.

"One hundred years."

Ophelia gave a number that made Roger's heart tremble.

"For so long, my friend ......" Roger didn't notice a hint of anomality flashing across Ophelia's face as he answered the question.

Amanda, Henrik and others are all transcendental, and their lives are far longer than ordinary people, but a hundred years is enough to change many things.

What made Roger's heart beat even more was that although he was surprised when he heard the news, his emotions were not as intense as he imagined.

"It didn't take that long."

Then he heard the true answer given by Ophelia.

"Convert that into the world you're in...... About two years or so. ”

"Two years ......," Roger sighed, shaking his head, "but strangely, just now I felt like a long time had passed. ”

"Long close to the life of an ordinary person."

The emotions in his eyes were mixed.

"So you should be able to understand the choice that Cerro made in the first place, right?" Ophelia said.

Roger nodded silently.

It's just a false experience that has changed his mentality a lot, and it's only been two or three years.

What if it's a hundred or even a thousand years, as Ophelia said?

If everyone ...... Are they all dead?

He let out a long breath and quickly regained his usual composure.

At this time, Ophelia also withdrew her thoughtful gaze.

"Come with me, although only two years have passed, the situation has changed a lot."

Stealing incense
