Chapter 36: The Stripping of the World
Starfall 838, November 9, McCrove World Northland Standard, 6:57 p.m.
A low whimpering cold wind swept across the frozen surface of World One, and it whipped up the black-gray metallic dust and turned it into an ice tide of minus 112 degrees, sweeping across the shattered planet's surface.
This is a desperate situation, an ice prison where even the air is frozen, where even the dragons born from lava are frozen into ice, drained of every trace of heat in the lightless darkness.
But on the surface of the cold and bleak planet, where there is no light, there are three people walking slowly in the wind, stepping through layers of ice that are harder than steel, and standing on a 10,000-meter peak raised by the movement of the earth's crust.
Joshua and St. Eagle stood on the highest peak of the planet, looking down on the world that had been destroyed—the huge canyons that cracked across the ground, the crust of the planet exposed to the outside atmosphere, and so on, all proved that there had been a terrible battle in this world.
Even the peak under the feet of the two of them was shaped by the terrifying gravitational disturbance caused by the former warriors after activating the neutron star battle body.
And the young man who was wearing a heavy and bloated protective suit, following behind the two, was none other than the captain of the elite exploration team, Priest, this young man followed behind his mentor, striding with difficulty, trying not to be pulled down, but by the time he was also standing on the highest peak of the planet, Joshua and Eagle no longer looked at the earth, but raised their heads and looked at the dim rainbow above the sky.
More than half a year has passed since the battle with the Black Mist Mother, and as time goes by, even the planet's core has cooled rapidly in the abnormal energy fluctuations, and World One, which could still spew high-heat metal weapons, has turned into an icy Jedi at this time, and it is no longer the original wonder.
The exploration team was very successful, except for the first team that accidentally encountered the black fog, which led to the accidental death of two people, no one encountered danger, or died of their own mistakes, and even the dead knight and the priest were completely collected by the soul abyss ball, and Joshua himself took action, and was perfectly resurrected.
Of course, the resurrection is not without a price, if it is because of their own mistakes that cause death, then even if they are resurrected, the dead team members will be disqualified from exploration, please leave the Imperial External Exploration Department, but the first team is mainly unlucky, encountering the force majeure disaster of black fog, so Joshua did not let them pay any price, just let them restart training and adapt to a new body.
Now, the Knight is embarking on an unimaginably long swim in the watery world, and his mission is to circle the world with his body, while the priests are to set up fourteen exploration nodes in the ice world to collect information about the environment of that extremely cold world.
As difficult as it sounded, it was actually an excellent workout for the transcendental, and Joshua believed that the two of them would soon be able to advance to gold after the experience of resurrecting from the dead.
As for Priest, he took the initiative to follow Joshua and come to World One to train.
Because when facing the black fog before, through the overload defense of the inheritance of the power of steel left by Joshua, the young warrior felt more and more deeply about the control of gravity between life and death, and after receiving Joshua's teaching again, Priest had mastered a trace of gravity and the mystery of time and space, so he came to World No. 1, where gravity was extremely strange because of the shattering of the earth's core.
"The seal imposed by the gods is strong, and there is not the slightest sign of error."
Standing on the top of the mountain, looking up at the sky, the holy light in the eyes of the old pope gradually faded, turning into a pair of ordinary eyes, he lowered his head, sighed and said: "It's just that this operation is too difficult, even for the gods, it is a great drain. ”
After reinforcing the multi-dimensional seal on the Black Mist Mother, the nine gods returned to their temples or sacred realms around the world in turn to begin a long period of recuperation, and the maintenance of the circle was entrusted to the major forces dominated by the Church of the Seven Gods.
As for the ordinary people on the Microf continent, they don't know the slightest bit of this grand battle, and they are still living an easier life, at most, the dwarven chamber of commerce and the nobles with ore veins in the territory have always been stunned by the falling metal prices recently-the alloy sand vein located in the third world has begun to be mined, and a large number of low-price and high-quality raw materials have poured into the market, undoubtedly impacting the originally almost solidified metal resource market.
However, these are just small things, whether it is Israel intends to make Dimore the crown prince and cause an uproar in the upper echelons of the empire, or the Grand Duke of Roland of Xishan puts on the crown and begins to ally with the underground races, preparing to launch a campaign of conquest of the surrounding kingdoms, in front of the really important news, it is just a mist in the sun, which will dissipate in an instant.
And that important news is the whereabouts of the big database.
When the gods opened the space-time gate and transferred the huge mass of the black fog matrix to the event horizon of the black hole in World One little by little, they unexpectedly, or rather, they discovered the space-time signal of the unified large information database in the periphery of the black hole.
In fact, when Joshua had just entered World No. 1 and saw the black hole, he had already detected the clues of the existence of the big information database through the gravitational spectrum, but at that time, he was in a hurry to protect the members of the elite team, and he also needed to call many legends to come and destroy many black fog and black fog mothers as soon as possible, so there was no incident to analyze carefully.
However, after sealing the Black Mist Mother, everyone finally had time to rescue the large information database that had been trapped in the black hole accretion disk for thousands of years...... And the environment in which the caretaker of the Great Database is located also confirms the suspicions of the old Pope and Joshua before—the Great Database obviously has the most advanced space-time signal transmitter in the Glorious Age, why can it only faintly rely on luck to send out a few signals? Even in the Lightless Dark Domain, there was a faint starlight, why could they only see pitch black?
The answer is very simple, they are next to a black hole, so naturally it is difficult to send out any signals, and they can't see any light, and the material particles they obtained some time ago are probably the remains of some black fog.
The rescue of the Great Database is a major event for the entire Mycrof civilization, but when all forces join forces to open the door to the Database Plane and prepare to meet again with their compatriots thousands of years ago, everyone is stunned to find that the caretakers of the Great Database have lost their normal life forms and have become fragile humanoids that cannot sense light, cannot eat solid food, and are extremely afraid of the high temperature environment of more than 40 degrees.
They have a humanoid form, but they are almost no longer human, they live in symbiosis with a strange fungus algae, which can self-nourish all kinds of essential life substances in a lightless environment, but at the cost of being covered in cysts and neuromas, and countless strange, even highly toxic microorganisms have infiltrated their living systems, causing all kinds of mutations that are not fatal but extremely painful.
The extreme living conditions, as well as the harsh sources of energy and materials, made the caretaker of the Great Database resolutely transform his body, and the original caretaker ancestors transformed themselves into this form with extremely low energy consumption, so that this human group could survive.
But even so, these caretakers are ignorant of human culture and civilization, and they know almost nothing and nothing except guarding the database according to the ancient codes, but it is precisely because these human guardians are almost no longer maintained by human beings that the database that integrates the large database can be preserved in a relatively complete manner.
Nature's Mentor, Barnier, William and others are undergoing a triple body, mind, and soul therapy for these venerable guards, and a team is working around them to heal their wounds, so that these guards can become normal humans again and enter human society, which is the most important joint action of many forces in recent years, not for destruction, but for salvation.
"Actually, according to my calculations, the reason why the stars of World One will supernova explode and turn into black holes is probably caused by the huge space-time oscillation caused by the impact of the big information database on the world."
Joshua also did not look at the black hole above the sky, he lowered his head and looked at the devastated World One, this world in the past, maybe it was also a living planet, but now, it has been turned into a hot hell for hundreds of years, and then into such a cold and desperate situation as it is now, so that all traces of the past have been wiped out.
"The aftermath of this space-time earthquake is likely to sweep away all the worlds around the Dark Realm, and even induce the solar eruption of many worlds...... The Ice World and the Ore Vein World may have lost their own sun because of this. ”
After finishing speaking, Joshua was silent, but his heart couldn't help but recall the memories in the spirit fragment of the Eye-Demon Lord Helm.
It was a living planet devastated by a supernova explosion, the entire galaxy was blown out by a storm of rays from a nearby solar explosion, and even the planet itself was swept out of its orbit and burned headlong into an expanding star.
The supernova explosion that occurred more than 400 years ago may be the last aftermath of the space-time quake, and Helm, who happened to be teleporting in the void at that time, was affected by the aftermath and got stuck in the gap between time and space, and witnessed this scene with his own eyes.
"In a sense, this is all glorious civilization...... Or rather, it's all the mistakes of our ancestors......"
The old pope beside Joshua closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again, and he sighed heavily again: "Many suns have gone out, and civilization has been destroyed...... If it weren't for the sages and our ancestors who opened the gates of all worlds, perhaps nothing would have happened. ”
There will be no abyss invasion, there will be no evil gods cruising, naturally, the entire world galaxy will not be devoured by the evil gods to create a huge wound, and the void maelstrom will naturally not be formed, and countless races can live happily and comfortably in their home world, looking forward to the future of their own civilization.
"Glorious civilization, under the endless light, there are also shadows...... Our ancestors forged the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrifice Ground, but they attracted the Abyss and countless evil gods to come and destroy everything around them...... It can be said that the source of all disasters is us. ”
Maybe the Black Mist Mother is right, the sages are really wrong, the fault is arrogance, they should not be so rash to explore the mysteries of the multiverse space-time, but wait for the time to be ripe...... The old pope thought of this, but he couldn't help but feel a little dazed, he smiled bitterly, and didn't know what to say.
When is the time right? Do you just do nothing? Civilization has reached this point, and it doesn't mean that it can be stopped.
Who knew that opening the Gate of All Worlds would lead to the Endless Abyss? Countless experiments before were done without any mistakes, and it was not until the official launch that it caused countless abyssal sounds, which is not so much a coincidence as a terrible joke and a vicious conspiracy!
But no matter how much you guess, the Age of Glory disappeared a thousand years ago, and the Starfall Era stood on its remains and looked around the worlds—a world galaxy that was scarred, with few civilizations left, and was almost completely destroyed.
In this galaxy, there is the chaos left by the evil gods invading the worlds, the flesh and blood of civilization, the spread of black fog, in the name of mission, strangling one race after another, and the abyss of extinguishing the flame is eyeing all intact worlds, they don't care about the future and hope, they just need to 'exist'.
And such a scene could never have happened only in this galaxy of the world—similar tragedies happened everywhere in the Endless Void, and the sad ring of chaos and order never stopped, this is the current situation of the multiverse under the light of the entire Primordial Fire.
It was bleak, there was a glimmer of light, but there was only a glimmer of light.
For the old Pope's emotion, Joshua did not speak, he listened to the sigh of the kind old man in silence, and when the last trace of the sigh disappeared in the wind and was annihilated by the cold wave, he said lightly: "It's almost time to start." ”
"Yes, it's time to get down to business."
Hearing Joshua's words, Eagle let out a breath, and the light mist dissipated in the bleak world, he nodded, and then looked up again, looking at the dark rainbow above his head, and at the side of the rainbow, the huge space-time rift.
This time, Joshua and Eagle teamed up to come to World One, not for a walk or to bring student power, the two can almost be said to be the highest-end beings in the McCroft world, to accomplish an extremely important goal.
At the other end of the space-time rift, the main body of the multi-dimensional magic circle is connected, where the inhibited black fog matrix is stripped of its entropy and mass all the time and thrown into the black hole.
And the purpose of Joshua and Iger's operation this time is here.
They want to strip the Alpha Sanctuary World from the Black Mist Matrix.
