80, Taoist friends, do you pass on the fire? (2/2)
80, Taoist friends, do you pass on the fire?
It takes a long time and countless wealth to build the contract spirit system, after losing the collaborator of Senluo Company, and Ah Zi's own position in Kunlun is unstable, coupled with the fact that the identity of 'Great Sage Hongjun' is more of a false name and cannot bring substantial economic income, Ah Zi feels that he is looking for a new partner.
They chose 'Oda Nobunaga', who was in the Far East at the time, led the Oda family to defeat the Gen family and became the leader of the Far East.
Ashi told Oda Nobunaga some of the secrets of the 'Contract Spirit System', because once successful, its benefits would be extraordinary, so after Oda Nobunaga agreed, in addition to providing funds and venues for the research of the 'Contract Spirit System', he also sent the second daughter, who was the most talented of his three daughters, to Sophia.
Nominally to learn alchemy from Sophia, but in essence as a hostage.
The girl was about the same age as Alice and VV at the time.
She has a sister named Oda Shinna, and a sister named Oda Yamato, and her name is-
"I'm Oda Shiki, so it's a pleasure to meet you!"
Yes, the girl named Oda Shiki, came to VV and Alice.
Despite this, VV and Alice, their relationship with Oda Shiki is not very familiar.
Because the time is too short.
However, VV, who was filled with the desire for revenge at that time, hit the idea on Oda Shiki.
To be precise, it is the ability that their Oda family has, which can be passed on by blood-world Buwu.
So, that day – that day four years ago – came VV's chance.
Ah Zi and Sophia chose as the location for arranging the 'Contract Spirit System' in another enchantment city in the extreme east, 'Atlantis'.
Due to the tragedy caused by the misunderstanding, VV used his own ability to 'dominate' Oda Shiki, and then forcibly drew out the potential in her body, forcing her to do something that almost took Oda Shiki's life at the time - creating a godhead for VV.
With the blessing of the 'Godhead', VV's 'Domination Power' is unprecedentedly strong, and her ambition has swelled beyond her actual ability, and on the day that four years ago, on the day the 'Contract Spirit System' was completed and activated, she used her ability to forcibly 'dominate' a floating battleship called 'Shohe' that belonged to the Enchantment City of Tengi.
She drove the warship and forcibly broke into Atlantis, quietly approaching the location of the 'Contract Spirit System', just to bring the 'Contract Spirit System' under her control!
Gain power, and then - avenge your parents!
But she didn't know.
In Atlantis that day, in addition to the successfully constructed 'contract spirit system', something else befell that city-
'Gate of the Stone of Truth'
Why is this so?
These are things that VV doesn't know.
Ah Zi and Sophia, in addition to raising Alice and VV, have never stopped deciphering the information of the Divine Empire in the 'Truth Stone' while building the 'Contract Spirit System'.
In fact, in Ah Zi's original plan, it would take more than ten years to complete the 'Contract Spirit System', but the reason why the opportunity to complete it ahead of schedule was because they accidentally discovered in the process of researching the 'Truth Stone'-
Although the name is different, the effect is similar to the 'contract spirit system', and the gods have also created it!
Further analysis puzzles Ah Zi and Sophia, because according to the newly deciphered information, their previous suggestion that the gods created something called the Gate of the Truth Stone on their behalf is wrong.
'Gate of the Stone of Truth'
In their 5,000-year history, the Divine Generations have also been constantly studying this 'Gate of the Truth Stone', in other words, this 'Gate of the Truth Stone' existed long before the Divine Empire!
And the misunderstanding between Ah Zi and Sophia gave them the data to create the inspiration for the 'Contract Spirit System' is actually the preparation made by the gods to open the 'Gate of the Truth Stone'.
According to the description of the gods, as long as the 'contract spirit system' is successfully constructed, the 'gatekeeper' of the 'Gate of the Stone of Truth' will descend, and if you offer a 'sacrifice', you will be able to fulfill a wish through the 'Gate of the Stone of Truth'.
Through the incomplete information, Ah Zi believes that the 'Gate of the Truth Stone' is a 'wishing machine to a certain extent', although he doesn't know what the so-called 'sacrifice' is, but in short, first build a 'contract spirit system', call the 'gatekeeper' out, and then ask the 'Gate of Truth Stone' how far the wishing function can go.
That day has come.
Atlantis four years ago –
The 'Contract Spirit System' is completed.
Then, the 'gatekeeper' appeared in front of Ah Zi and Sophia.
Although it was the first time they had met, Ah Zi and Sophia were very familiar with the 'Gatekeeper' because her name was too loud in Chinese mythology.
- Monkey King
Then again, is that being the real mythical Monkey King, or is it an imposter created through a technology similar to Sophia's 'Alchemy of Truth'?
None of this is clear, and it seems that even Sun Wukong himself does not know.
She just fulfilled her promise as a 'gatekeeper' and told Ah Zi and Sophia the role of the 'Gate of the Truth Stone', as well as the truth of this world-
Desperately truthful.
The world they live in has a mechanism of 'restarting'.
For example, if the data accumulated in the hard disk reaches the limit, the system will choose to delete the data and restart itself for its own operation.
No one knows why this mechanism exists – or rather, this 'reboot' mechanism is the most basic principle that makes up this world.
And the data that was deleted is everything that is.
Yes.
When the limits of the 'Old World' are reached, the World will send scavengers who delete the data - D-Seed, Abyss, Calamity, Azathoth - to destroy everything in the 'Old World' and restart the 'New World'.
It may sound ordinary, but it is undoubtedly the real end of the world for beings living in this world in all its forms.
But there is not no way to save.
Sun Wukong compares the lifespan of the world to a 'flame', and when the flame is about to burn out, the world will be 'destroyed', so this process is also called 'extinguishing the fire'.
However, the way to save the world still exists.
Because that's what the Gate of the Truth Stone was created for.
Sun Wukong told Ah Zi and Sophia that the limit of their current world has actually arrived a long time ago, and the reason why they haven't 'restarted' is because someone has 'made a wish' through the 'Gate of Truth Stone' to renew their lives in this world.
This process is called 'passing the fire' by Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong said: "Actually, the 'wish' is just compensation, as long as the 'door' gets the 'sacrifice', it will tear the barrier of the dimension and merge our dying world with other worlds, although it will cause some side effects, but ...... As long as this is repeated, we can achieve the purpose of continuously renewing the life of the world. ”
Sophia was relieved, she had heard that the world would hang up at any time, and she was startled, for fear that the world would suddenly kneel, and she wouldn't even be able to see Alice who had grown up.
But Ah Zi questioned:
"Why is 'making a wish' compensation? What is the 'sacrifice' that prolongs the life of the world? ”
The answer given by Sun Wukong is-
"He was the 'hero' of that era."
“...... Hero? ”
"Yes, the person who bears the great fortune is destined to shoulder the vast majority of the cause and effect of that era, and her every move can even disturb the 'protagonist' of the Three Realms...... For example, the ...... of my time Golden cicada. ”
Listening to Sun Wukong's words, an ominous premonition surged in Ah Zi's heart-
