Chapter 33: The Prison of the Gods 7400
Priest felt like he was trapped in a vast, unbelievable dream.
When the information of the Accra Hub for more than 6,000 years turned into an infinite flow of information, surging at a speed that ordinary gold powerhouses could never bear, the seemingly flustered Priest was actually prepared for a long time.
In the final analysis, it's just a mental shock, and as the leader of the Otherworldly Exploration Team, how could Priest not be prepared in this regard when exploring a relic with a voice of the heart? It's just that even if he prepared it in advance, he didn't expect this information to come so quickly, so suddenly, and so hugely.
The time that is enough to make a civilization destroy and reborn flies by in a staggered light and shadow, and the alternating light and dark light mixed with infinite pictures and videos flow like a river, and Priest struggles to support himself in the flood of historical information that can wash people away into idiots.
"Nor did ...... It's stronger than the teacher's coercion! β
It can be seen that Priest's brain in reality has burst out with countless blood spots, a large number of capillaries have been shattered, and the brain tissue has been destroyed by almost substantial mental shock, but because of the existence of the repair light pillar, no matter how serious the injury is, he can fully recover in the next second.
A miracle that brings the dead back to life is so unreasonable.
Faintly, Priest could see that it was gradually reversing, from the recent days to the memories of time before the ancient times.
The sun above his head rose in the west and sunk in the east, dragging an orange arc trajectory, and time was flipped upwards in hundreds, surging like a raging river, but the soul of Priest, which was far tougher than ordinary gold, could swim upstream, tracing towards the past.
He saw the sun set and the moon rise, he saw the clouds disperse and the wind surged, he saw a speeding car suddenly speeding through the sky, activating the automatic orientation protocol that had been dormant for a long time in the hub, he saw hundreds of years of time passing away in an environment like stagnant water again and again, and the original thick rock shell of the hub gradually thinned, the forest outside gradually thinned, and the moon in the sky became smaller and farther away, and Priest was even surprised to find that the Akra Farr Hub was not even what it is today hundreds of years ago, Its silvery shell is covered in rock, and it still emits a brilliant and bright light.
Until that moment...... The rocks bulged as if they were alive, covering the land with huge hubs one after another, adding mountains to the otherwise flat world.
Priest saw who had sealed the many hubs into towering mountainsβhe saw that in this last unknown world, perhaps the last civilized ancients.
Civilization is not a human being, as a collection of intelligent life, civilization is far longer than a single individual, most of the time, it will always maintain a young and vigorous form, constantly moving forward, as bright and brilliant as the morning light in the sky.
But can civilization really live forever and remain unchanging, forever in its hopeful, dawn-like form?
The answer, of course, is no, civilization will also age, it will also decay, it will slowly change from strong to weak, just as the sun will go out, the morning sun will eventually become sunset, the vibrant civilization will become degenerate and decayed under various circumstances, lifeless, and the individuals who were once full of desire to explore will also indulge in enjoyment and waste, gnawing at the foundation of civilization like moths.
The most important thing is that, in the final analysis, civilization needs people to maintain, and if even the most basic number of people cannot be satisfied, then no matter how good the words are, regression and weakness are inevitable facts.
Just like now, as Priest saw in his visions thousands of years ago.
In front of the Akra Pha, a small group of barely clothed humans and another group of elves stood at the foot of the silver man-made mountain range, staring at the massive structure in front of them with a complex gaze.
"We have lost 80 percent of our legacy memory...... With the decay of books and the erosion of chaos on the bloodline foundation, there is no longer a Extreme Meaning inheritance in the place where we live. β
The clothes can be regarded as a hint of modern people, and the human leader said in a hoarse voice: "I am probably the last human in this world, Jiyi - and I have forgotten how I broke through back then." β
"Books will rot, memories will be confused, even if a stone tablet is used for a mountain, it will not be able to engrave one percent of our inheritance, and we can barely maintain the collective existence with the mother tree storing knowledge, but this is only to quench our thirst...... If one day, the mother tree is also eroded, then we elves will be doomed. β
On the other side, a leader elf that was somewhat familiar to Priest and somewhat similar to Sur and the deercrest elves nodded slightly, and replied heavily: "But our survival doesn't matterβthe Seeds of Life and the 'Rebirth Plan' stored in the Accra Nexus are things that must not be allowed to make the slightest mistake!" β
"Unable to observe Microf...... Our hometown may have long since been destroyed, and we may be the last glorious survivors of this galaxy. Because of this. β
Speaking of this, all the remaining human beings raised their heads in unison, and they all stared at the huge Akra Phap Hub in front of them, and the leader of the Extreme Will-level said in a deep voice, "We must not continue to take refuge in Akra Phapha's other space-time hubs. β
The elves were silent, while the humans were still whispering to themselves.
"If it weren't for the Hub's position of order to delay the Chaos invasion, we might have been eroded by the remnants of the Chaos Power of this land, but this would consume too much of the Hub's energy...... the transformation process of 'that being' is calculated for thousands of years, if the Hub's suppression module stops due to lack of energy in the middle of the transformation, then 'that being' may be reversed at any time."
"If it is resurrected, then everything is finished. The sacrifice of the nine leaders, the reason why we have persevered to this day will become a joke, and the future of all of Mycrof's races will be darkened...... But if the plan of rebirth succeeds, 'that being' will be transformed into a perfect and immaculate, heavenly world...... At that time, the Hub's reserve of Lifeline Bloodline will be continuously copied and released into this world, they are our successors, and the Hub will shelter them, teach them, and let them inherit everything we have and become the new 'Glorious Civilization'! β
ββ¦β¦ So. β
The elf asked in a low voice.
"We should self-destruct as soon as possible, and then turn off the active defense system of the Hub, leaving only the suppression module, the detection system, and the information gathering module to work."
Human beings said calmly: "Don't look at me with that kind of gaze, I am not eroded by weakness, this is the most rational thought." Now that our existence is just a waste of precious energy from the Nexus, we are no longer a civilization - we are just a bunch of poor creatures isolated by the anomaly of time and space at the end of the world's galaxy, our death does not matter, the most important thing is the 'future'! β
"Dead, let alone the future, even the present no longer exists."
The elf retorted, but after a moment of silence, he shook his head helplessly: "...... Well, I'll admit you're right. But I don't think there's just one option. β
Priest tried his best to memorize the whole discussion in his head - but he couldn't, the 6,000-year-old torrent of history was only a third of the way now, and even if he had a brain explosion, he couldn't remember more.
Time flies again.
And then, there is no more detailed record of the events, but all of them are fleeting fragments.
Priest saw that with the powerful magic that shook the heavens and the earth, the rock formations of the continent rose from the ground in the roar of thunder, covering one huge silver building seal after another, and he saw the bright and bright light disappear one after another, but this was not self-destruction, but a sacrifice for the sake of a more distant future.
Time went back in a dreamlike way, and the elves who had weakened enough to cover themselves with blades of grass began to appear in armor and even magical equipment, and not only that, but the ruins were reversed and retransformed into sturdy towns and houses like a video rewind.
Priest saw that thousands of years ago, in this now peaceful and disgusting world, there was still infinite danger, one after another human, elf, and even dwarven towns fended off the invasion of chaos from the sky, they fought between the primeval forests, chased in the desolate grasslands, and the races that had not lost much of their inheritance fought against the many monsters in the sky, underground, and on the ground, and purified them into harmless ashes.
Everything is very strange - as history continues to regress, the era is getting older and older, but the equipment and civilization of humans, elves and other races are becoming more and more advanced, and the monsters that appear in the sky and the earth are becoming more and more powerful - huge nuclear devouring worms that can penetrate deep into the center of the earth, Chaos Star Butterflies that can fly through the atmospheric void, and Chaos Star Butterflies that can whip up typhoons with flapping wings, and one terrifying being after another that makes Priest gasp like a marquee.
And these monsters all died under the suppression of the Void Warships and the major hubs.
Until the end - the end of history, 6,700 years ago.
Time seems to freeze there.
For a moment, Priest felt like he wasn't seeing anything.
It was pitch black all around, there was no sun, no stars, no light source, and the chaotic darkness rolled in the void like a mist that could never be dissipated...... At this moment, Priest's mind suddenly went blank, and he couldn't think of anything, as if he didn't remember anything in the first place, and he was so ignorant in the first place.
And at this moment, Priest suddenly felt very familiar.
This feeling of forgetting seems to be very familiar with the feeling that in the last few days, he seems to remember something after dreaming, but then forgetting it all.
"What's the matter...... is eroding my memory......" finally condensed a little consciousness in this dark fog, but just when Priest didn't have time to think about what he had forgotten, he suddenly looked blank: "Strange, who am I?" β
And just when Priest seemed to be completely engulfed by the fog of the historical data of the Accra Junction.
In the darkness, a little silver star suddenly lit up.
In the next moment, the silver star skyrocketed, turning into a blazing beam of light that pierced the sky and the earth, tearing through the darkness like a sharp sword, sweeping away the fog.
At this moment, Priest's mind immediately returned to normal, and his scattered and dazed eyes suddenly refocused, obviously recalling his own memories - but before the young warrior could become afraid of the strange black fog before, he suddenly realized that he was now in the void, and behind him was a silver mixed with black, hazy, indescribable, indescribable, indescribable chaotic star.
Silver and black light flickered at the same time, and the holy and terrifying stars kept releasing a twisted and strange mist, and it could be seen that it suddenly erupted into thousands of distorted time and space, like tentacles-like energy arcs slamming the void, each arc of light tentacles was comparable to a mountain range, enough to sink the continent.
However, nine blazing silver beams of light intertwined into a huge net, completely suppressing the stars, and the terrifying arc tentacles were easily torn and cut off, turning into silver points of light and dissipating.
Priest looked at this scene in shock, this was a scene that he, a young gold, had never seen before, even in the first World One, the battle between Black Mist and the teacher did not seem to be as shocking as this strange war.
Swallowing his saliva, Priest turned his head to look at the source of the beam, and then froze on the spot-
What he saw were nine huge void warships made entirely of silver metal.
In fact, this kind of scene alone would not surprise Priest, unlike the Chaos Stars that he had never seen before, he had already seen a civilization creation that was much more shocking than this Void Battleship, or the posture of a strong man...... What really stunned Priest was the shape of the bow of one of the nine battleships.
That's three U-shaped bumps...... It's exactly the same shape as the Accra Hub.
"Finally got you."
In the void, there was a familiar and unfamiliar voice of the heart, her voice cold and stern, like a queen on high. Priest could easily hear that this was the prototype of the Accra Junction Heart's Voice.
And this voice, in a tone that was almost gritted teeth, said word by word: "Weak evil god! β
β¦β¦
In reality.
Around Priest's brain, a large string of black gas suddenly emerged - its practical gas is a bit less rigorous, it is more like a strange force that distorts the light and weakens the spectrum than a simple fog.
As soon as this power appeared, it seemed to want to spread to other places centered on Priest's brain...... But from the very beginning, the movement of the strange force fell into a rather awkward situation.
Because on all sides, it is the power of pure steel from Joshua.
Seemingly a little overwhelmed by the sudden appearance of the black air, the repair light pillar flickered for a while, but soon, it began to operate at full capacity, carrying out the most complete 'healing'.
Bang - Zizi Ziziββ!!!
With a series of strange sounds, the distorted strange power suddenly dissipated into invisibility, and even, this ferocious, violent, full of devouring desire, extremely difficult to control and extremely dangerous steel power, even followed the source of this strange power, and eroded the past in reverse!
Rumble!
The earth shook.
The five people who were still waiting for Priest to come out around the Akra Fat Hub suddenly felt the ground shake violently.
The rocks cracked, the sea of trees undulated, and the originally flat soil suddenly uplifted countless hills, and the crumbling layer of rock that was originally just hanging over the outside of the Akra Crux was completely peeled off.
"What, what's going on?!"
The knight, who was about to climb the tree to look at the surrounding situation, was thrown directly from the treetops by this concussion, he lay on the ground, and said inexplicably: "Why is there a sudden earthquake here?" Could it be that the captain caused some big trouble in the hub? β
The others didn't speak, apparently somewhat agreeing.
But this time, it was indeed the people who blamed Priest - if they were high in the sky now, they could see that it was not just a sudden tremor at the Akra Junction, but the entire surface of the world, which began a super shock that fluctuated and stretched for thousands of miles, and in those areas where there was no Mother Tree of Life and Hub to suppress, the surface of the earth kept rising and retracting, like ...... It's like something's wriggling in the depths of the earth.
At the same time, an invisible ripple, an indescribable torrent of information that only extreme intentions and even legends can perceive, are spreading towards the other side of the galaxy of the entire world outside this closed world, with a kind of pain, anger, and a momentum of gradual awakening.
The side of the world's galaxy.
The wandering Star Wrangler World Fleet suddenly stopped moving.
Countless Void Behemoths that were absorbing matter from various worlds to feed stopped their instinctive swallowing, and froze in place, not moving.
Some of these worlds are lifeless and dead worlds, some are primordial worlds with primitive life but no civilization, and one or two are life worlds with intelligent beings but are enlightened and give birth to civilization...... Void beasts are not picky, nor do they choose, they just pry open one world after another at will, devouring the quality of the world...... At the same time, they also release their own offspring into the world, leaving behind their own seeds.
It's like a beetle opening a small hole in an egg, sucking the white, and then placing its eggs in the shell of the egg.
As for whether there is life in the devoured world, will these lives be destroyed by their own actions, will they be devoured by the Void Beasts of their infancy...... That's not their thing.
They don't care.
The eight-legged fungus doesn't care either.
In the court of the Star Herders, the King of the Void who had hurried to his knees respectfully bowed before the Twisted Spiritual Void - it didn't need to ask questions, because the fact that all the Void Behemoths had stopped moving was too great, and the Merciful Great Khan would take the initiative to explain it all for them, the Shepherds.
Sure enough, in the spiritual void, there was an obvious and incomparable voice.
"Kumocinda ......"
This time, the Great Khan's voice was no longer as dull, slow, dreamy as before, and its voice became serious and serious, solemn: "I sense the fluctuations of the World Eater. β
As the king of the Great Khan's herding flora and behemoths, Kumocinda had seen countless terrifying Void Disasters, it had witnessed the collision between worlds, and witnessed the Void Storm sweeping half of the world's galaxy, it originally thought that it had long forgotten what it meant to be at a loss, but the moment it heard the word 'World Eater', the mind of the King of the Void still fell into a blank for a moment.
"Here...... There are also world eaters?! β
Kumocinda was about to say something more, but the Great Khan's words interrupted it: "Of course there isβthere is no Pure Land in the multiverse, and besides, this is the Lost Galaxy. β
"This was originally the 'great battlefield' where the ancient ancestral civilizations fought against countless world devourers...... It wanders outside the normal multiverse, blocked by a myriad of empty material vacuums, and only distorted starlight can prove its existence. β
The Great Khan's voice echoed heavily, it seemed to be saying hundreds of completely different words at the same time, countless echoes intertwined, turning into a mental shock that made Kumocinda even look painful, and in the hands of the brief echoes, a slight cold voice of the Great Khan could be heard.
"Turn back, Kumocinda, pass on my orders, the fleet will turn back, and we will go to the place where the World Eater fluctuations came from."
In the shock trembling of the King of the Void, the Great Khan said, "It is a weak World Eater, a wreck that has just been freed from the seal of the ancestral civilization - we must destroy it, if we cannot destroy it." β
Speaking of this, Kumocinda felt as if there was a cold being, staring at his cap: "Even if the Star Herder escapes to the end of the multiverse and survives to the end of all things, there is no possibility of returning to his homeland. β
β¦β¦
"I sense the chaos waves."
Joshua, who had just teleported to the edge of the world's galaxy, said.
"I feel it too."
On the side, both Garanord and the somewhat sluggish Nostradamus nodded, as the apparent incomparable chaos fluctuations were coming from not far away.
Of course, this is not far away, it is just a relative legendary powerhouse, the distance between worlds, it is not surprising that ordinary Void Battleships take several years and decades to shuttle, even if it is McCroft's high-speed Void Battleship, if you want to travel back and forth to several worlds that are very close, it will take seven or eight days, and the distance is slightly larger, and it will take years to calculate the shuttle time.
On the Silver Planet Cocoon, Joshua shook his head: "I'm not talking about this fluctuation, it's from my steel power...... Fluctuations from the repair beam of light. β
Not to mention, even Joshua couldn't figure out for a moment whether the chaotic fluctuations he and the Repair Light Pillar sensed were the first one.
"Joshua, this level of Chaos Fluctuation is several times stronger than the Void Mother Beast we killed at the beginning...... And even much more! β
Because of the hard work, it was only with the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrifice Ground to teleport Joshua's comparable world body, even if Nostradamus was a legendary powerhouse, he looked like he was about to collapse at this time, but even so, he still beat his spirit and reminded the warrior: "Either it's the multiple legendary evil god clans, or ...... It's a real evil god! β
However, is the evil god so weak? Nostradamus himself was actually a little puzzled, because although the chaotic fluctuations coming from this distance were strong, they were slightly inferior to the Black Mist Matrix, and all in all, they were not as strong as everyone imagined.
On the side, the natural mentor frowned, she sensed the fluctuations in the distance, and then reminded in a deep voice: "It is getting stronger...... Don't waste time, it's recovering quickly at a rate that can be felt! β
"Thankfully, I brought the main body with me this time...... It's funny, it's a strange feeling. β
He frowned slightly, and then stretched out, Joshua, who was involved in an accident for the first time, and not caused the accident himself, didn't say anything, while the other two legendary powerhouses were preparing to send a message to other legends to deal with this sudden chaotic fluctuation.
Soon, however, Nostradamus and the Nature Mentor discovered that the news could not be spread at all.
"It's a weird wave β this chaotic wave decays energy waves, and even lowers the energy transition energy level of the element, and our communications are split into meaningless low-energy waves in the moment they are transmitted."
Nostradamus's eyes flashed with a faint blue light, and he couldn't help but have a headache when he analyzed the phenomenon of microscopic space-time: "I can build a stable space-time bridge and send the information back directly - but the time is estimated to be a bit long, and I haven't recovered yet......"
"Then I'll go with Garanord to see what happens."
Joshua also sensed the unusualness of this chaotic fluctuation, and this kind of chaotic fluctuation that was different and had a special anomalous effect was the first time he had encountered it.
That's what it is...... Is there something special about evil gods? Before he even appeared, there was such a vision.
For some reason, Joshua felt as if she had forgotten something. Sensing that something was wrong, the warrior who was about to control the planet's giant cocoon and headed to the source of the chaos fluctuation frowned a little suspiciously, and then he nodded thoughtfully: "I see. β
"The battle has begun."
β¦β¦ Within the Unknown, the Accra Junction ......
"Ahββββββ!!!! It hurts! It hurts!!! β
Waking up from the endless onslaught of information, the first thing Priest felt was endless pain.
From the nerve endings to the soul, every component, the endless information infusion, directly messed up the brain of Priest and the nervous system of the soul impact, and the soul was on the verge of collapse - even if the repair light pillar had been working normally, repairing the Priest who felt like he was about to explode into a good state, the extreme pain would still not change in the slightest.
It can even be said that Priest, who is constantly repaired by the repair pillar of light, keeps waking up, can't be unconscious, and bears 100% pain, can't even escape.
But thanks to this, Priest has not forgotten those things that must not be forgotten.
"Absolutely...... To tell them, to tell the teacher, to tell the McCrove headquarters......"
Holding on to reason, Priest simply erected his left index finger neatly, inserted it directly into his left ear, and the thick fighting spirit was simply released neatly, accurately destroying the parts located in the center of the left and right brains that perceived pain, temporarily shielding his physical aspects that made his hands and feet tremble, and he couldn't walk normally.
Anyway, there is such a thing as repairing the pillar of light, the brain and the nerves, and if it is broken, it is not that it cannot be repaired. Priest thought with great flirtation, and then just like that, he strode up and walked towards the door of the central control room in Akrafa.
"It's not a world at all...... The moon in the sky is not the moon ......"
"This is the Land of Seals, the greatest place of seals, the testing ground of sages and gods, the most terrifying prison in the world!"
Standing on top of the energy stance of the autopilot system, Priest was half-kneeling, staring at the ground, whether it was panic or forced composure, as if he could penetrate the metal and see the depths of the earth, beneath the crust.
"Our feet...... Imprisons a chaotic spirit! β
