Chapter 692: Eat the gods
For a short period of time, Kaneki's consciousness became very trance-like, but even so, many images appeared in front of his 'eyes', or in his mind.
At the beginning of the world, the primordial darkness was illuminated by light, the heavens and the earth were opened, and then 'he' was born, and with him were born, and with him were born many different beings, who were divided into nine kingdoms and lived on a tree called 'world'.
Then, 'he' became the god-king, conquering the four directions, commanding crows and wolves, riding eight-legged Pegasi, and wielding an invincible sacred spear, becoming the ruler of the nine kingdoms.
However, the glory will eventually come to an end after a long time, and in the ancient Chinese saying, things must be reversed.
The twilight of the gods, the fall of the gods, his power was reduced little by little, until he died in the belly of the wolf of dusk, how unwilling? What a shame?
Condensed to the last of his strength, 'he' perished with the things that destroyed the twilight and the world he inhabited.
This ball of light, in a sense, is the condensation of this broken world and 'him'.
After thoroughly absorbing the ball of light, Kaneki opened his eyes, and the shattered world was dark after losing the ball of light, that kind of pure darkness.
However, in the face of all this, Kaneki did not show any panic, but saw him slowly turn around, his right hand raised slightly, and in the process, the thunder and the divine condensed into a spear in his hand.
Throwing spears like javelins, streaked across the sky like meteors, its goal is endless, guiding Kaneki on the way out of here.
Amazing, right? This ability is not like the power of human beings. After receiving that ball of light, it was not only memories that were added, but also powerful abilities.
Following the light gun all the way out of this enclosed space, Jin Mu secretly said in his heart that he had indeed come to the right place, and if he had looked ahead, he might have missed this opportunity.
In fact, the identity of 'he' is already obvious, and it is not difficult to guess that Odin, the king of the gods in Norse mythology, the ruler of the nine kingdoms, only exists in myths and legends.
At this point, Kaneki also understood that this world is definitely not simple, and even the hierarchy of the inner world is definitely not low, and even the existence of Odin has been confirmed to be real, although it is an incomplete fragment of power, but it is enough to show that there are indeed gods in this world.
Since myths are true, can it be understood that any mythical characters also exist?
China, Celtic, Nordic, Cthulhu, Greece, Egypt and other countries that exist in their own mythological systems, are those legendary gods looking down on the human beings at this moment?
If that's the case, does that mean you're going to fight the gods? If that's what it's called a promotion opportunity.
Thinking about it this way, the more Kaneki felt that it was possible, but these were only speculations after all, and more things were needed to support it.
Leaving the cave, the entrance to the cave has been sealed without exception, after all, they have been in that broken world for too long, and in the past few years, those people have not been able to figure out why they have withdrawn, and then sealed this place.
The control force shattered the size of the cave that could be left for him to leave, and the sunlight that had not been seen for a long time was quite dazzling, although this was only a psychological effect, he couldn't help but block it with his hand.
The Scandinavian Mountains are still stunningly beautiful, and known as the oldest mountain range, they have their own charm and pride, and if it weren't for the fact that there are so many questions that need to be answered, maybe Kaneki would have lived here for a while.
Sighing regretfully, Jin Mu stood on tiptoe, and above the sky, a shining golden light, a very eight-legged Pegasus came high, caught him when Jin Mu fell, and flew towards the sky.
Sleipnir, Odin's mount, the Pegasus of the Bloodline of the Gods is extraordinarily fast and powerful, of course, it is not suitable for combat, but only as a means of transportation, it is said that it can reach any place in the Nine Kingdoms in one day, you can imagine how fast it is.
Therefore, it only takes a few minutes for Kaneki to travel from Sweden to China.
The reason why I came to China, in addition to being my homeland, was to verify whether the immortals who existed in the legends really existed.
Among the known mythological systems, the myths and legends of the Chinese civilization are the most, and the number of its gods and goddesses can be said to exceed the overlap of other civilizations, and the system is the most complex, and the strength is also the most unpredictable.
Shanghai, one of the few economic centers in China, Jin Mu, who had done a little bit of disguise, came here and was a little stunned to find that his disguise seemed to be wasted.
Different hair colors, different pupils, it's hard to understand that all of them are yellow-skinned, and there is only one possibility that black-haired and black-eyed Asia will have such different colors and different pupils.
Diffuse the world!
That's right, only the diffuse world will use this way to distinguish everyone, and its biggest feature is that handsome guys are everywhere and there are many beautiful women like dogs.
If you are not special, then why pretend? So Kaneki walked down the street in his own image, and indeed did not attract anyone's attention, which made him feel relieved that his suspicion had been confirmed.
It's best, at least it doesn't seem to be a solitary act, and it will help his investigation.
Now the top priority is to explore the existence of the inner world, ordinary people naturally do not have any information, useful information will only come from the inner world, such as the existence of gods.
So, how do you enter the inner world?
Here in Kaneki, there are two ways to refer to it. One is that he uses supernatural power to deliberately create incidents, so that people in the inner world will investigate, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to be targeted by state agencies, and there will be no peace unless he goes abroad.
The second is to summon the crow gods Fujin and Wuni with the power they have acquired, and they will return what they see and hear, and they are the best intelligence gatherers and excellent monitors, otherwise they would not be called 'Odin's sight'.
While it may be slower to get information through Fojin and Fogny, it's safe.
Before figuring out whether your strength can be ranked better in this world, it is better to be a little better, as soon as you come out, you will be scared of the heavens and the earth, and you can imagine the end of everything, there will always be people who are taught to be human, especially in the world where there are gods.
Standing at the top of the Oriental Pearl, Jin Mu waved his hand, and two ravens were born in the void, their eyes were as bright as gems, and they were very smart, if you didn't look at their eyes, you would only think that they were just two ordinary crows.
"Go, come back tomorrow before dawn with useful news..."
Kaneki whistled, and two ravens flapped their wings, one to the south and the other to the north, and they would use their eyes to find something special, and their 'ears' to listen to useful news, and then return to him before dawn to tell him everything he wanted to know.
Shanghai was not large compared to the metropolises in China's territory, and Fujin and Wuni stored what they saw and heard in their seemingly small heads as they flew.
They will sift through this information, remove the useless, leave the useful, of course, don't think that it is just that, they can sense what Kaneki wants to know most through special perceptions, and pursue the extraordinary.
Soon, Fog was locked onto a person.
This person looks very ordinary, and he can't be found even if he throws it in the pile, but Wuni naturally has a reason to target him, this person is not an ordinary person.
There are many ways to distinguish between ordinary people and people who exceed ordinary people, but the most direct is power. Martial artists are not ordinary people, because practicing martial arts makes their own qi and blood vigorous, both physically and mentally stronger than ordinary people, so in the eyes of ordinary people, they are like supermen.
Of course, martial artists will not easily reveal their identities, after all, there are rules in the inner world, so the so-called masters and masters seen on TV now are just laymen who can do a little bit of kung fu to put it bluntly.
Chivalry is forbidden by force, so it is natural to stay away from ordinary people and masses for dangerous things, and the world is formed in such a situation over time.
Otherwise, how can it be said that the truth is in the hands of a few? Because they are born with something more than ordinary people.
The person Wu Ni was spying on was a martial artist, and on the surface he looked like an ordinary office worker, and if he didn't show it himself, basically no one would suspect it.
People in the world also have to live, in order to live an ordinary life, they are naturally incognito, maybe everyone will have such a stranger around them, but after all, there will not be too many.
No one would suspect a raven, or that the surveillance of the Fog Ni was almost undetectable to anyone, knowing that the existence of the Nine Kingdoms to spy on an Inhuman was infinitely close to zero because he did not know that he had been exposed.
People will repeat the things of each day, washing, eating, going to work, sleeping, over and over again, this is inertia.
Inhuman is no exception, even if he has an extra layer of identity than ordinary people, it is because after living the life of ordinary people, they will still come into contact with other people in the world after all, so they inevitably drink and eat together, and then get drunk and say something that they don't usually say.
"Did you hear that? The one from Eastern Europe came again some time ago. ”
"Well, I heard about it, but I have been beaten back by the alliance leader."
"It's not so much a fight back, it's a lose-lose situation, right? After all, they are all 'kings', and their strength is also among them, although the alliance leader is indeed very strong, but..."
"Okay, you guy, why are you saying something disrespectful to the alliance leader? You must know that it is precisely because of the protection of the alliance leader that our land of China can be safe and sound, and at the same time, we can also occupy a place in the inner world. ”
"That's the same, but I'm a little Meng Lang."
"Punishment should be punished! Say nothing, drink! ”
Unbeknownst to the two men, their conversation was overheard, and the raven's low cry was only soft, and before they could look at it in astonishment, it had long since disappeared.
It didn't take dawn, and at midnight, Fujin and Fogni returned to Kaneki's side, standing on his shoulders left and right, whispering into his ear.
After absorbing all the useful information, a key word appeared in his mind.
King!
What king? In the 21st century, although there are still countries that retain royal rule, not many of them are.
How could it be known that Huaxia could allow the existence of a king? However, it exists, and it seems to be at the apex of the inner world, and the existence of the king is tacitly accepted by the state, and even to some extent protected from the invasion and persecution from the outside world.
So where do the violations and persecutions come from? Naturally, there are other kings, more than one king, and among the known information, there are two kings, one in China, and the other in Eastern Europe, presumably there should be other kings besides them. But there won't be a lot of them, otherwise, wouldn't the world be chaotic?
Knowing that the king is the existence of the apex of the world, then how did the king appear, why did he become the king, and what was the process of becoming the king, this is a new question.
In fact, Kaneki has a very bold but possible guess, that is, these kings have obtained the power of the gods like him, otherwise, how can they secretly get the support of a country?
This situation can only show one point, that is, the power of the king is no less than that of nuclear weapons, and if it can match or even exceed nuclear weapons, it can only be the power of God.
Therefore, I am afraid that this speculation is indeed valid.
Since the king is a man who has attained the power of God, is it not like him who has unintentionally acquired it through adventure? Did it pass the other way?
Probably, even at all.
It's like a game, if you defeat your opponent, you can get the opponent's items and power, so if you defeat the gods, do you also gain the power of the gods?
If a human being can defeat a god, why do you need the power of the gods? So it is conceivable that these kings who have obtained the power of God have obtained the power of God because of various coincidences or careful planning.
Thinking, reorganizing, converging, the framework of the inner world gradually takes shape in the mind, and although there is only a small amount of information so far, these speculations are not unfounded.
So, let's put this information together and explain it in the most understandable situation.
First of all, there are gods in this world, and there are inhumans. Then, humans defeated the gods and gained the power of the gods, and the humans with the power of the gods were revered as kings and kings of the world.
They belong to different camps and countries, and their existence is like a nuclear weapon to deter others.
There are not many of them, and they don't have a good relationship with each other, and they don't feel close because they are 'of the same kind', because they are repelled by the same sex.
So, to sum all this, this is a world about killing gods and taking away the power of gods, and it belongs to the world of games between those kings and gods.
Thinking of this, Kaneki finally showed his first smile since coming into this world, and he finally understood what this so-called promotion opportunity was all about.
It turned out that he was here to 'eat' the gods!
