The scarlet warning frame kept appearing in front of him, and even with his eyes closed, Zhibei could still clearly see the screen of the system. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This...... Is it really going to die......

Zhibei's weak mind was in chaos, jumping with chaotic thoughts, and the scarlet that kept jumping out in front of him was like a Wanhua mirror, instantly changing into distorted light and shadow, and then combining into a cold box.

I'm so sorry...... Meng, I want you to go to Huangquan with me! and Yongyi, who died in the same year and month, may not be able to do it! Well...... So there is nothing I have done to fulfill my vows! Even Ji Hong must have become a monster very sadly!! Haha, it turns out that the so-called oath is exactly what cannot be fulfilled......

Zhibei apologized gibberishly before the parting of life and death, but this grief did not last long. The deeds of the past had flashed from his memory, and he seemed to see the same shadow in the countless deaths of those countless years ago, and an indescribable emotion took possession of his soul.

Yes! Death! Such a proud death, such a proud death! Oh, yes! This is my will, my decision, a death without regret! It is the supreme freedom, and it is the reason why I am so glorious! I remember the sting of the long knife through my chest, I remember the bright smile with sadness, I remember the innocent faith that burst out in my heart at that moment!

How many sages, with such a firm belief to die, they did not change their face to dedicate their hearts to the blade, they did not hesitate to throw themselves into the bubbling river, this seemingly stupid death, just so that future generations can inherit their faith!

So, their names have been glorified for thousands of years, and I?

Zhibei said to himself firmly in his heart: "Don't say that it is for the sake of continuing to learn, as long as you can make Ji Hong ...... No, Zi understands what it means to guard, so I'm worth dying!! Well...... This may be the last lesson I'll teach that kid as an older brother! Hopefully, she can grow up to be a human ......."

Before losing consciousness, Zhibei's heart turned one last thought-

However, if you can not die, it will be good!

―――――――― long coma――――――――――――

Darkness or darkness, silence or silence.

As if in a long dream, Zhibei woke up suddenly and opened his black eyes.

He felt like he was lying flat on the hard floor, and in front of him was a vibrant bright red, and in that abnormal 'sky', a raging flame was burning, and endless dazzling gases were rising, reflecting the terrible red light all around, affecting the entire space.

From Zhibei's point of view, the countless flames that twisted and swirled were like divine punishments, as if they could fall on his head at any time, burning him to ashes, although he couldn't feel the heat, but the scene in front of him still startled him.

"I'm ...... It's not going to be hell, is it? Zhibei muttered, and the next moment, a new discovery startled him again, causing him to bounce off the ground.

"How could I still be alive!!" Zhibei screamed and looked down at his naked body, whether it was the fair skin, or the thin but healthy body, they all told him that he was still alive (ghosts don't have real bodies)!

When his attention finally left his proud body, he saw that the flat "ground" he had stepped on was nothing but nothingness, and endless flames burned beneath him.

But this time, he was already surprised and used to it, and he was not frightened by this little "hanging roast".

"Zhibei, you finally woke up......" At this time, in the space where Zhibei thought there was only one person, a second voice sounded. It was an indescribable voice, not like a man, not like a woman, it seemed to encompass all possibilities, and it seemed to be empty.

I thought that my nerves had been trained enough, but Zhibei was still frightened, he wittily covered his lower body with his hands, and looked around nervously, looking for the owner of the sudden voice!

Then, Zhibei saw a huge white figure, emerging from the swirling pure flames. It was almost four meters tall, a white creature like a deer, a horse, and a dragon, with golden ornaments on her limbs, and a golden wheel-like bracket wrapped around her elegant waist. Her body was as beautiful as a jewel, and like flowing water, it shimmered with divine light.

"You...... You should know me! The (?) god-like elf slowly spoke, looking at Zhibei with her soft gaze.

"You...... You ......" Looking at the sudden appearance of the elf, Zhibei was stunned, and after a while, he shouted loudly: "You are the creator god - Arceus!" ”

The elf nodded and said, "Ah! I am Arceus! The beginning of the world, the origin of life. ”

"You...... Why are you here? Yes! By the way, it turns out that I came to your paradise, no wonder...... Then again, are the angels here also corporeal? Zhibei asked excitedly at first, and then quickly found a good reason for himself.

"Forehead ......" may be Zhibei's mistake, but Arceus seems to have a few more black lines on his head, "No...... Zhibei, you are indeed alive......"

"Alive? It's not scientific...... Well, it's not magic either! I've been pierced through the chest with a long knife, how can any human survive it!! Zhibei shook his head in disbelief.

"It's true that humans can't survive, but you...... Not human anymore! Arceus calmly said the words that made Zhibeitou big.

"Not human anymore? So what am I? Ghost? Phantom? Or is it some remnant soul or something? Zhibei anxiously asked, he is not DIO Master (Note 1), he can be so free and easy to be a person.

"You're a god now." Arceus said.

One sentence, six words, but like a deafening bell, constantly echoing in Zhibei's ears. Am I a god now?

Zhibei looked at Arceus blankly, but Arceus nodded affirmatively. He really couldn't understand, why did he suddenly become a god when he didn't do anything?

"You have now inherited my divine throne and received the last vestige of my power, so, from now on, you are the creator god!" Arceus said, "Wait...... Don't be in a hurry to ask, let me explain it to you slowly. ”

Zhibei suppressed the doubts in his heart and listened to Arceus.

"At the beginning of the universe, I was born with the dazzling chaos, and I walked in the fiery chaos of order and regularity, and at that time I was surrounded by eighteen stone tablets that together formed the foundation of the world. After a long time, the whole world cooled down, and then I created Palukia and Diaruka, and I gave her the tablets of space and time, respectively. I then created Zenas and Ivitar and gave them the tablets of life and destruction. I created the phoenix and Lukia, and gave them light and darkness. Eventually, I created the first fairy, Dream, and gave her all eleven tablets of stone except for the Judgment, after which I fell into a long slumber under the Tree of Origin of the World. ”

"But...... That day, I was awakened by a great tremor, and I heard a mournful wail from the depths of the world, a struggle that was about to come to an end. The sudden 'great destruction' came, I came out from under the tree, and I saw the devastated world, the leaves of the World Tree withered and withered away, and all living beings were desperate in the disaster, whether it was the gods I created or the gods created by dreams, they were all dying in the irresistible tearing, and countless living beings died directly. I had the Tablet of Judgment (Note 2), so I was not killed by the cause and effect that tore through everything, but the power I had divided, the cornerstones of the world, although they wanted to fly towards me, were swallowed up by the twisted void in an instant, and I lost the judgment because I wanted to grasp a tablet. ”

"Obviously, as a god, I couldn't do anything before such a catastrophe, so I had to take one of each race and use my last strength to break through the void and come to this world. Then, to my astonishment, I found that the power I had lost was lost somewhere in this world, but neither I nor my people were able to find it, so I had to work with that person to make your current system. ”

Hearing this, Zhibei couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Who is that person?" Is there a charm in the world? ”

"Ah...... It's her, but you're not here to see her! Arceus said earnestly, "Now I can answer your question, the reason why you did not die is because the last stone tablet I grabbed was fused with you, it is the stone tablet of fire that represents all the flames in the world, and it has been passed to you along with my divine throne, so that your mortal body can be resurrected." Zhibei, I hope that you can help me find all eighteen stone tablets and create a new home for all the remaining elves, as fate says. ”

"The Slab of Fire?" Zhibei muttered suspiciously.

"Yes, you can imagine a fire in your mind, and then you can see it."

Zhibei imagined the flames for a moment, and then, as if instinctively, he felt that there was something more in his soul, he looked to the side of his right hand with some feeling, and suddenly found the gray stone slab slowly floating in the air, the ancient stone slab has undergone countless vicissitudes, but the red runes printed on it have not been worn out in the slightest, and it seems to contain mysterious power.

That's what it is...... Slab of God!!

Zhibei turned his head to look at Arceus again and said, "As long as you find all the stone slabs, can you create a new home for everyone?" ”

"yes!" Arceus nodded.

"So...... I'll be sure to find them all! ”

"That's it! Then I can go back to sleep with peace of mind. Zhibei, thank you! ”

"It's time to say thank you, it's me!" Zhibei watched the white figure slowly fade away, and sighed with mixed feelings.

Note 1: DIO is from "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", and once issued "Jojo, I'm not a man anymore!" Bold words.

Note 2: Arceus's Stone of Judgment is invincible, and by the way, Arceus's eighteen tablets are the second set after I have changed them.

(Let me recommend it to myself, can you bear it?) ）
