Chapter 1489: Brave New World (Twenty-Five)

In the picture is a dragon, a dark red dragon.

Even if Arthur deliberately didn't look at it, the image was unusually large, forcibly attracting Arthur's attention.

At this moment, the dragon was looking up, and fire was radiating from its eyes. It was as if it could see Arthur and them from where it was, through all the barriers of the world.

The flame in the dragon's eyes was so clear and clear, and so wicked and filthy. It made Arthur's heart furious.

"Ah, you noticed him. The mysterious old man J smiled: "Be careful, don't keep looking at him." He is full of temptation, and if you look at him for too long, your mind will be sucked away by him. ＂

Arthur then looked away: "What the hell is that?"

"It was my old adversary, my favorite child, who has betrayed me. ＂

"He's?" Arthur glanced at the old man and then at the dark red dragon, "but that dragon is clearly ...... ＂

"It's a change, kid. The old man continued, "He doesn't need a specific form, he's a spirit like us, and if he knows the trick, he's free to do whatever he wants." ＂

"I don't think I have that power. But Arthur was skeptical.

"That's right, now you, not yet. The old man smiled and said, "Do you know, child? One of the sources of spiritual power in this world is faith. The more intelligent beings in this world who worship me and believe in me, their beliefs will become some invisible force that strengthens my existence.

I used to be the faith of every human being in this world. I am their creator and the conversion of their hearts. They are the source of my strength.

In addition to the human beings who are made of flesh and blood, I have many, many more spirit children. They serve me and are the beings closest to me. ＂

"Well, a kingdom of spirits, ruling over humanity. Arthur raised his eyebrows.

"However, unlike simple-minded humans, each of my spirit children has a mind of its own. The old man continued, "And one of them, the one who has now been transformed into a dragon, has grown resentment against me in his heart.

He thinks that human beings are not worthy of my love. He saw the nature of human beings and thought that they were ugly, harsh, barbaric and shameless. He believed that all human beings on earth were defective and needed to be eliminated and corrected one by one.

He thinks that all I need to do is love my spirit children, and that I should no longer focus on the lower creatures of the human race. ＂

"So this is actually a battle for favor?" Arthur couldn't help but laugh, "Sounds stupid." ＂

"Exactly," the mysterious old man J also smiled, "but I allowed it, I let him do it." He wanted to prove to me how bad humans are, so let him prove it. Before you can prove that your opponent's claims are wrong, you must give them a chance to prove them.

So, I made a bet with him, a contract.

He can run rampant in this world, tempting, intimidating, and deceiving anyone at will. He can tempt the world to commit all evil by the most despicable means in order to prove how bad human nature is.

And I, on the other hand, will not interfere. I must not interfere with human beings with [free will]. ＂

"You're crazy!" Arthur grumbled, "he's going to make a mess of the whole world!"

If that's his real purpose, he's definitely tried it countless times. The mysterious old man J smiled indifferently, with a little helplessness in his smile: "Actually, the war in this world has never really stopped." Every peace is nothing more than a preparation period for the next war. Whether it is just or unjust, every war is bloody.

But that's not the end of the story. My old friend and old rival, he's preparing something. He intends to plunge the world into an unprecedented catastrophe, a world war. ＂

As soon as he finished speaking, a picture appeared in front of Arthur, covering countless small screens on the ground.

A huge flame swept through everything, and it was a relentless war. It scorches the earth, kills living beings, and unleashes all the world's calamities at once. Under the ravages of war, the entire planet is burning and devastation.

"And that's just a small part of my old adversary's huge plans. J continued.

Humanity that has been ravaged by war will become more ferocious and cruel, civilization will no longer be there, and everything will return to its most primitive state. In the barren land, humans kill each other, fight for survival, fight for greed, and even do the dirty thing of cannibalism.

"Then my old adversary will prove to me perfectly that human nature can be so unbearable. Humanity does not deserve to be saved. ＂

"It's just nonsense. Arthur said angrily: "If the world becomes like that, in order to survive, this is a matter of course." ＂

"Then I ask you, child. The old man looked at Arthur with a serious face: "If you are about to starve to death, and you have a bowl of human flesh in front of you, and eating human flesh is your only option to survive, will you eat it?"

Arthur was suddenly dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

"With humanity completely gone, my old friend will declare him victorious in this gamble. If, on the contrary, people maintain their kindness even in the most desperate moments, then the gamble is that I have won. ＂

"But that's not something you need to worry about, friends from another world. The old man smiled, and with a wave of his hand, a crack suddenly opened in the void. The rift that appeared in the airArthur had seen, it was the rift of space-time.

"Go back and rest, and when the time comes, I'll guide you to the right time again." "Don't worry, you and that girl's fate (Kama) are still closely linked, and you will definitely see her again - you should say that you can't get rid of it if you want to." If this is a ruse by my old friend, I will not be able to intervene, and only you can save your lover. May the love between you break the trap set by the devil. May you truly be reunited. ＂

Before Arthur could react, a huge suction force from the rift in time and space had already sucked him in.

"Your Majesty. Your Majesty?" Merlin's voice came from the darkness.

When he came to his senses, Arthur found himself a ball of light, floating in the chaos of the Harmony. This is the gap between time, the place of all and nothing, the very center of endless chaos.

"I've been sent back?" Arthur looked around, "Where's Bedi?"

"I'm here. Bediwell's voice came from another cluster of light next to him, and his voice was quite excited: "Arthur, you're still alive!

"I'm not weak enough to be killed by that kind of vampire. Arthur said without emotion.

"Your Majesty, we seem to have been banished from that world. Merlin said, "I can try to reconnect with that world, but I need some time." Now we have to go back to the original world. ＂

"Let's do it. Arthur said helplessly.

In the blink of an eye, Arthur and Bedwell were back in their original world. They stood in the tactical chamber of the British battleship Palamides.

After Merlin's shady barrier was lifted, Arthur subconsciously looked at the bell in the conference room. It was only five minutes after their initial departure.

"Are you kidding. I've been there for a whole month!" Bediwell touched his chest and exclaimed, "Oh, man, human body!

Arthur gave Bediwell a blank look, and the werewolf youth's own movement of touching himself was particularly strange.

Merlin also gave Bedeville a blank look, unhappy with the werewolf youth's indiscriminate mention of time travel.

"Anyway, I wish I could come back safely. Arthur subconsciously covered his chest. Arthur, who was almost killed by a blow to the chest by the True Ancestor, still has palpitations. It was a phantom pain, a mental trauma that was deeply imprinted in Arthur's soul. Even King Arthur, who is now strong, will remember this fear for a long time to come, the fear of manipulating the body of a weak boy to fight, and almost perishing because of his own weakness.

Being a weak person turned out to be such a terrible thing.

All in all, it was great to be able to come back safely. Although their task is far from over.

"Uh! my tree species...... Bediwell yelled at something on the table. That was exactly what Merlin had used as a medium to connect the two worlds, and Merlin had opened the gap to the other world nine hundred years later by relying on the connection of tree species.

Now the tree has a strange bud on it, the bud of a black rose. The roses look black at first glance, but in fact they are not, and Arthur can see that the flowers have no color in the first place, but countless stars are reflected in them - as if there is a universe hidden inside.

"The connection between our plane and the plane nine hundred years from now has not been completely broken. Merlin explained, "Think of this as a checkpoint. The next time you enter that world, you will be in the same capacity as you will reach the world after the time period you have experienced. ＂

"I don't understand. Can't you send us back to the original time?" I've already found Greenway, if we just start pulling her back from there—"

"The laws of the universe do not allow us to enter the repetitive time zone, not even if you are spirits. The overlap of time can have horrible consequences that you wouldn't expect to see. ＂

The Knight King sighed, "Okay. Whatever. ＂

Anyway, he had already found Greenway, he knew who Greenway was in that world, and the next time he went, he would definitely be able to find her again.

Of course, whether or not we can wake her up and bring her back into this world is another matter.
