Chapter 405: Shelter No. 13 (End)
The Infinite Void is not cosmic space.
This is not a concept in physics, but a boundary between physics and the occult, a space that only exists within the Aetheric Sea.
It cannot be observed.
It can't be predicted.
It cannot be speculated.
Of course, strictly speaking, this is only because the current level of science and technology of human beings is not enough to understand the principle, maybe one day the secret of the [Aether Sea] will be presented in the eyes of human beings, but for now, human beings can only use it, and cannot really control it.
And to a certain extent, only those who have certain management authority within the [Aether Sea] can appear in this boundless void.
It's like now.
"It's been more than a billion years, and it's the first time I've suffered such a big loss."
"In terms of stories alone."
"It's a tragedy."
A flash of light exploded in the boundless void, and then expanded rapidly, like a spark to achieve the momentum of a prairie fire, and in the infinite void, a round of sun appeared out of thin air, and in the sun, a figure slowly emerged, and the flame gradually turned into clothing and form.
Idiant stepped out of it.
Out of this world.
In its heyday.
"You guys whose personalities are the roots of the universe are really annoying to watch, and you are born with these unreasonable abilities, if the universe is a game, you are definitely hanging, if the universe has an operator, I will definitely blow up their complaint calls."
In the vast void, right in front of Ediante, a figure emerged from the darkness without warning.
The face that has always been frivolous is full of disgust at this time.
First Archon Byron.
And beside the consul of the world government, the humanoid light cluster of the omniscient and all-powerful incarnation could not see the expression clearly, and the whole person flickered on and off like a light bulb. In contrast, Idiant spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency the Archon also thinks too highly of me. β
β.... You call me Your Excellency? β
"Is there anything wrong?"
"I thought the great God Almighty must be very proud, and thought that mortals were not worth mentioning."
"How so."
Idiant shook his head: "Not to mention that I have no dignity in the first place, even if I have, I can't put up any fight just after losing to a mortal." β
"Even if the front foot just dies, the second foot will come back to life?"
"You can't look at it that way."
Idiante said with a serious face: "Although I was resurrected, I originally planned to kill Gu Moli in the game script I created, and then completely eliminate the power of the [Aether Sea], and finally find a chance to escape, but now that I am resurrected, I can't escape." β
After saying that, Idiant looked around.
"I wasn't reborn in a pre-set place, but I was here, and that speaks volumes, and I lost in terms of conclusion."
"So what are you going to do now?"
"What should I do?"
Idient glanced at Byron, and suddenly smiled, and then saw this thirty-level almighty god pushing the mountain of gold and pouring down the jade pillar, and plopped,
And he fell to his knees.
"Heroes spare their lives!"
"I surrender!"
Not to mention Byron, even the omniscient omnipotence on the side is crazy fluctuations in light, obviously I didn't expect Idient to make such a move.
Of course, they weren't surprised that Idiant had chosen to surrender.
What they were really surprised about was that Idiant would choose to surrender in such a humiliating way.
"I thought you'd be going to resist for a while."
"What a joke."
Idian said without hesitation: "I, I'm not a fool, stubborn? I've resisted, isn't that the last failure? β
"Then there is no need to make such a big gift...."
"Didn't I just say that?"
"Say what?"
"I have no dignity in the first place."
Idiant said such nonsense in a very serious tone, and for a moment Byron and the omniscient were a little speechless.
"If you have to think that something is wrong, it can also be regarded as me activating my [confession at a critical moment] hidden ability....."
"Enough is enough."
Byron waved his hand weakly: "I'm not interested in continuing to talk nonsense with you here, let's just say it, our previous agreement should still count." β
"Of course it counts."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true." Edion spread her hands with a nonchalant face: "If you don't believe me, you can also ask [Omniscient and Almighty] to check it?" β
Byron turned his gaze, and then saw the omniscient and omnipotent light flickering beside him, and soon the omniscient and omnipotent voice echoed in the void: "No problem, the oath made under the gaze of the Eye of Ugart is still valid, and he is indeed bound by us now." β
"Are you sure?"
Byron was not reassured by this, but emphasized: "This is a foolish god, is there any possibility that he can use this power to deceive the Eye of Ugarth?" β
"In its heyday, it was really possible." After a pause, the omniscient omnipotent gave the answer: "But with his state in the script at the time, it is impossible to do it, and once the oath is fulfilled, there is no way to use foolish power after that, his personality is not enough." β
The Eye of Ugarte is far inferior to Ediant in terms of ability.
It is also ninth in the sequence, not as good as Edit's eighth.
But His power is pure.
The only two abilities, either of which are taken out alone, take advantage of the situation when Idiant is in extremely poor condition, and there is no reason not to succeed.
Seeing that [Omniscient and Almighty] gave a conclusion with such certainty, Byron was also relieved.
Then he looked back at Idiante.
In the game script, Sainz and the others had planned to fall into the trap of Ediant, but in the end they were persuaded by Edion by swearing in front of the Eye of Ugart, but at that time, Edit's oath was not only for Sainz and others.
Also included are Byron and Omniscient, who are watching the script.
He said a total of three sentences at that time:
"As long as you don't interfere, I swear that no matter whether you win or lose, I will not harm any life in your world!"
"If I win, I'll help you solve the problem of the Vortex of Origin!"
"If I lose, then I'm willing to let you deal with it."
Of these three sentences, only the second sentence is addressed to Sainz and others, and the remaining two sentences appear to be to Sainz and others at first glance, but they are actually addressed to Byron and the omniscient, and the reason why such an oath is actually said is also to fulfill Idient's own wishes.
"Actually, no matter if you win or lose in the end of this game, you won't lose."
"Win, as you said, Gu Moli leaves the game, and you also get rid of the lock of the system, and you will be at large from now on, and you may make a comeback at any time."
"Lose, just like now, you are at our disposal because of your oath, but it would be a pity to kill you like a level 30."
That's how it turned out.
Under the constraints of the oath, it is not impossible to kill a Thirty-Zero, but it is pointless, and it is undoubtedly more reliable to use a Thirty-Tier than to use it.
So how do you take advantage of a three-zero?
For humans, the Aether Sea is the only option.
But that's just in line with Edit's goal.
"After all, from the very beginning, your idea was to invade the [Aether Sea] system and participate in this game, but now it's just a different way."
"Don't say that."
Ediante's smile remained unchanged, and his fingers rubbed slightly: "This is already the worst choice in my plan, originally I planned, either to keep free to enter the [Aether Sea], or to remain free to find another opportunity, losing the freedom to enter the [Aether Sea] is not my original intention." β
It has also been said before that among the nine 30-level existences.
Edion was the freest of all.
Having no restraints, no worries, doing whatever he wants, nothing can restrain him, which shows how much freedom is a treasure for him, but now, although he has achieved his goal of entering the Aetheric Sea, he has lost his most precious freedom.
Whether it's a loss or not, we have to say it.
"But it's the first time I've had such a big fun in so many years, and if I can't participate in it, I'll definitely regret it for the rest of my life."
"Does your life have an end?"
"Theoretically, no, adjective, adjective."
"Hmph." Byron looked at Ediant carefully, and seemed to be a little reluctant, but after thinking about it, he still made up his mind and stretched out his hand to Ediant: "..... Welcome Idiante, as of today, you will be one of the administrators of Trials of Heroes. β
βNICE-----οΌοΌοΌβ
The teenager-like Ediante made a scissorhand that was very much in line with his appearance, and then immediately stood up, and couldn't wait to say: "Hurry up, I can't wait to put small shoes on that Gu Moli who defeated me immediately, I want him to arrange the most difficult script....."
Byron: "Huh!? β
β.... Belch. Idiante's expression froze: "No? β
"Of course not!"
Byron's voice rose suddenly, and almost at the same time, the breath on Edit's body was instantly suppressed under his angry drink, as if the gods were suddenly knocked down to the mortal dust, Edit suddenly shrank his head when he heard this: "If you can't do it, you can't do it, you don't need to be so angry...."
Byron rubbed his eyebrows: "All in all, the task of the administrator is not to manipulate the game, I have long recruited a large number of professionals around the world to be responsible for the operation of the game, although you have the right to watch the player's game, it is absolutely forbidden to participate in the game." β
"Uh-huh!"
As soon as the words fell, Idient suddenly showed a few difficulties: "Although watching stories is also my hobby, if you can, it is undoubtedly better if you can manipulate it to improve the excitement.... Is it a big deal that I can pay out of my own pocket to compensate and reward my players? β
"That's not going to work either!"
"It's rigid."
"It's the rule!"
Speaking of this, Byron finally lost his patience completely, and said directly: "Edit, I hope you can follow our staff code well, if you want more wonderful stories, you can find them yourself in the database, but no human interference is allowed!" β
"Okay, good, you're the boss who listens to you." Idian didn't entangle with Byron either, just raised his hands decisively and said sincerely: "It's okay to just look at it and don't do it, no problem, but if I apply in advance and get permission, can I intervene?" β
"Apply in advance...."Byron frowned: "It's only valid with my permission, not except me." β
βOK~οΌβ Edion grinned, "Then I'll wait for the time to get to work." β
"Yes."
"Then I'll familiarize myself with the position first, you are the supreme administrator, and now some of the permissions of the [Aether Sea] should have been opened to me, right?"
"Don't do anything out of the ordinary."
"Understood, understood."
Leaving behind a sentence that I don't know whether it was sincere or perfunctory, Idient disappeared into the infinite void, leaving Byron and the omniscient omnipotent behind.
β..... I really don't know if this decision was right or wrong. β
"The most free cosmic root, will you really accept this kind of bound way of living, I don't trust the ability of the Eye of Ugart, this guy's label of a foolish god is too jealous, or just expel him......"
While sighing, Byron kept glancing at the omniscient omnipotent with slanted eyes.
β...........β
"Ah~~! It's so hard for me to be a consul in this world! Isn't there a great god who can do whatever he wants, and pull my brother and me when I'm in trouble~! β
"I'm busy too."
"Ah~~!"
β..... I'll try to help you keep an eye on him. β
"Thank you!"
Byron, who was still crying and sad just now, instantly returned to his original state, with a smile on his face: "I knew Yawei, you wouldn't let me down!" β
"Of course, it's not unconditional."
"Huh?" Byron's smile froze.
Ignoring Byron's expression, Omniscient continued: "Give me the right to meddle in the game script, you gave this right to Uroboros, it's okay to give me a copy now, or is it that with my identity and characteristics, I still can't get your trust?" β
"How so!"
Byron tugged at the corners of his mouth: ".... It's not a question of belief or distrust, Uroboros is in a special situation, and it is absolutely impossible for him to betray himself..... Well, well, three times! I'll give you three chances to meddle in the game's script, but only three times, you can use it at your own discretion! β
"That's enough."
The omniscient and omnipotent were not dissatisfied with Byron's blatant distrust, and still said in a flat tone; "One more thing, about the player's reward this time, the hidden task is to extract one of Idient's abilities, I have already extracted it when Idient recovered just now, you can help me give it to him later."
β.... Is this an internal determination? β
"Count."
"Done!"
Byron nodded cheerfully.
"One last question."
"Say it."
"What about the Vortex of Origin, and the original game world, the apocalyptic threat of that world originating from the Vortex of Origin is not over yet, right?"
"Aren't you omniscient and omnipotent? I don't know? β
"The object involved is the vortex of origin, and if I can touch him, I try not to touch him."
"Oh." Byron nodded: "Don't worry, although that world is still full of crises, at least the threat from the Vortex of Origin no longer exists." β
"After all, ....."
Byron's gaze was on the boundary of the Infinite Void, as if he was about to cross the Aetheric Sea and see the vortex of origin located in the material universe.
β.... The One has now turned his attention to us. β
"He must have been so angry with the harassing phone calls before."
"What then?"
"Dump the pot at Edion and make him a scapegoat."
β.... That's why I didn't kill him. β
"Edion knows it herself." Byron touched his chin: "He uses me, I use him, we can actually be a pair of good brothers." β
To this [omniscient] answer is only one word:
"Phew."
