Chapter 709: Temporary Cooperation?
After all, what Nova Supreme said was just a rumor, and there was no video data or any evidence to prove that the above was actually happening.
But still, even the mere thought of the possibility of "facts that could have happened" is chilling.
A piece of armor, a weapon made of intelligent beings, a product that was finally born at the peak of technological development, can kill gods as easily as killing chickens. From the perspective of being a god, Richard had to admit that the existence of such a thing did make him feel uncomfortable.
In fact, it is an inevitable fact that the development of science and technology surpasses the power of God, which Richard has known for a long time. After being promoted to God and getting closer to the consciousness of the universe, he realized that this was intentional in the current universe.
The universe encourages intelligent beings to develop technological civilizations, develop cutting-edge weapons, and allow and expect technology to surpass the gods. Because the structure of this world in this cosmic era is built on the basis of science, which is why the Devourers of Planets will be defeated by the cannons of the Star Empire.
This brings us back to the place where the dark Lucifer was discovered.
According to Nova Supreme, Lucifer's whereabouts appeared exactly where the Lost Race fought the Celestials.
The godslayer was dispatched, the starry gods fell, and even the strongest gods in the universe had to use all their strength to deal with this civilization that tried to usurp power.
A full-scale war broke out between the two sides in a certain star field. The strongest of the Celestial Group were exhausted, and countless high-level Celestial Gods were thrown into the battlefield.
There are no images, no records, not even survivors, so no one knows exactly what happened to the battle. However, the tragedy of the war can still be seen from the remaining battlefields after the war.
The entire starfield was almost torn apart. It's not some rhetorical exaggeration, that's what it is. Countless planets have been shattered in the Great War, space has been shattered, and countless non-existent black holes have been added to the star field. Even today, traces of the collapse of the stars can be found in that barren area.
Today, that place is called the "Forsaken Land" by the people who remain. Tens of thousands of years after that battle ended, no life was born in the entire star field.
Countless Celestials fell in that battle, leaving a large amount of energy turbulence in the space after the battle.
The remnants of the power of the gods, as well as some other remnants of energy from cutting-edge technological weapons, have been left in this space in the form of energy turbulence after countless years.
Although it is only the remnants of the energy of an unknown number of thousands of years ago, these still have devastating power for ordinary people, and it is also the fate of being shattered if they accidentally touch it.
Over the years, many curious people have gone to that space to try to find some treasures from the battlefield, but most of them have never made it back alive. Occasionally, the teams that came back by luck were all in vain.
Gradually, this area was forgotten by the whole universe and gradually divided into a part of the unknown region.
But now that Lucifer is there, no one thinks he's just going on a sightseeing trip.
So what did he find there?
Maybe it's the battleship left behind by the abandoned civilization? A heavy cannon that can penetrate the stars?
Or ......
...... That legendary "God Slayer" armor?
That's what they'll have to figure out next.
If it was the latter, it would have been the worst Richard could have imagined. He doesn't have a clue how to win against the dark Lucifer, plus a legendary godkiller?
Even if this set of broken armor is only half as powerful as rumored, it will be enough for him to eat a pot.
Rejecting the offer to be accompanied by Nova Supreme's men, Richard decided to fly with Zaki to the Lost Land to find out.
It's not a hard place to find. Although it was an area closed to the present universe, the address was public, just outside the borders of the Xia Empire. It's just that there are no people living in the nearby star fields, and space travelers and even pirates rarely come here, and the whole area is empty and there is not even a single ghost to be seen.
Flying into this lost star field feels like entering a graveyard.
The breath of ghosts wafted everywhere in the entire star field, and there were traces of rupture left in the space, which felt like a wound that had been brutally split by someone, and the scar had not yet healed.
From time to time, you can see some floating metal wreckage in the space, and the dilapidated warships and equipment that have long been scrapped to the point of no apparent use are all silently telling the fall of a prosperous civilization.
But the remains of the gods are not visible here. If the rumors are true, then there should be a lot of gods who died here, maybe the remaining gods after the battle cleaned the battlefield, and they don't want the corpses of the gods to be found by other intelligent beings.
"Godslayer," Zaki snorted, "but it's pretty powerful, but I don't know how much of it is true." ”
Richard replied lightly: "Then I hope you have a chance to meet it one day, maybe you will be able to find out when the time comes." ”
The two of them have already reached the point of perfection in the use of spiritual power, and the communication with spiritual power is like instinct, and there is no need to even do it deliberately.
After a pause, Richard turned to Zaki: "There's a question I haven't been answered...... Why are you helping me? ”
"Help? You're mistaken, I'm taking advantage of you. Zaki looked away arrogantly, "Why do you think I'm going to help you?" ”
"Uh...... Because you're doing it right now? Richard said, "Lucifer may have used you, but all he wants is me, isn't he?" ”
Zaki snorted, "He's using me, I'm not upset with him, that's enough." I just want to settle accounts with him, and it just so happens that you are also settling accounts with him. So now we're just going to find trouble with him separately and it happens to be the same way, it's as simple as that, you know? ”
Richard was a little speechless.
He realized that the word "cooperation" might be a little too difficult for Zaki.
"So, you mean to wait until this collaboration is over...... When Lucifer is defeated, will we go back to square one? Richard asked, "Shall we continue to fight you to the death?" ”
Zaki sneered: "What, you're scared?" ”
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid." Richard shrugged indifferently, "Who is not afraid of you looking so scary?" ”
Zaki was a little smug.
"Then it will depend on my mood when the time comes. Maybe I'll spare you if I'm in a good mood? ”
Richard said you didn't say that before. Now when he closes his eyes, he can still think of Zaki chasing after his ass and yelling hysterically, and the laser throwing away as if he didn't want money......
