Kashny Federation, Terra Ruins.

The majestic mystical structure is immersed in darkness, with constellation-like gems inlaid on the walls and domes of the interior, forming a huge, regular network of crystal lattices, and within the narrow corridors, the crystal grid spreads inward along the walls on both sides, like a flowing mysterious band of light, making you want to dive deeper into it.

Boom ——!

With a sudden dull roar, the ruins door was directly blasted through by some force, cracking into a pitch-black gap.

The air currents from the outside frantically poured into the corridor, making a 'woo-woo' sound, like countless invisible ghosts wailing.

Squeak-la-la——!

Immediately afterwards, a pair of hands grabbed both sides of the gap and tore it towards both sides, forcibly expanding the gap to more than a meter wide.

"Isn't Helde here? The ruins of Terra haven't changed......"

Ivan sighed, and then stepped through the narrow gap into this familiar and unfamiliar realm.

In the other world, after conquering the Kashni Federation, it didn't take long for him to find the ruins of Terra and study them thoroughly. Today, the structure of the entire ruins is well understood...... It can also be speculated that if Helde really has a mysterious hiding place, it is very likely to be here.

“......”

While Ivan was on guard against the possible 'dark arrow', he walked forward along the road like a fly.

The four walls of the corridor are made of the hardest rock, and the thin lattice lines on it extend to the deepest underground, and the deep and narrow seems to have no end, which makes people feel very depressed.

After about 10 minutes of progress, a straight stone staircase appeared in the corridor, which looked like the slope of a pyramid, and it was impossible to count the steps against the background of the dark environment.

Walking up the stairs, Evan saw a huge underground palace, and for another moment, he was stunned.

Because in the other world line, there is no dungeon inside the ruins of Terra, and the end of the staircase is just a huge storage room.

“......”

Evan narrowed his eyes and carefully inspected the dark dungeon, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

The style of the walls, columns, reliefs, and ceilings in the dungeon belongs to the ancient Terra style, but the remaining part is obviously incompatible with the Terra civilization, and the entire dungeon is full of traces of patchwork and transformation; he can see that the entire ruins have been transformed with high precision by a mysterious and powerful force, and a large number of instruments and equipment that do not belong to the Terra civilization have been integrated.

However, because the modifier's methods are so clever that others can't notice anything unusual, only Evan, who is extremely proficient in mechanical transformation, can see the slightest clue.

"Is it Herder?"

"No...... No way!"

"All of this was a problem for me, and there was no reason why she could do it. ”

With all kinds of questions, Ivan walked towards the depths of the dungeon and found that the core area of the dungeon was filled with a faint blue fluorescence, and the air was full of mystery.

At the very center of the dungeon is a huge crater with a stone bridge suspended above it.

"That's !!"

The moment he saw the stone bridge, Ivan suddenly contracted his pupils, revealing a hint of surprise.

From his vantage point, he could see that the bridge had been cut off in the air, and at the end of the broken bridge, a blue inverted pyramid-shaped instrument was suspended.

At the end of the broken bridge, above the crater.

An inverted pyramid that glows blue in all directions hovers in midair, its surface textured converging into a bizarre pattern of the Monocular, and the curving words around the Monockey are none other than Terra's. This magical and mysterious style is combined with the rich historical atmosphere of the primeval era, making it look like a mysterious instrument with special magical powers, and like a clay tablet engraved with an ancient epic.

"I don't know what it is, though...... But the other world line clearly does not exist in it. ”

Ivan walked to the end of the broken bridge, stretched out his left hand by feeling, and gently touched the magic eye.

As he touched it, a layer of blue light suddenly appeared on the surface of the inverted pyramid, and the mysterious Terra words were rekindled and shone brightly.

At this moment, Evan's consciousness was instantly connected to some kind of information network, and a strange source of information was continuously injected into the brain, gradually forming an undoubted majestic voice:

"At the beginning of all things, the source of will...... The gods came to the world. ”

"They live at the ends of the world, and though they have great powers, no one knows about them. ”

"In the midst of loneliness and resentment, the gods decided to create their own world......"

"Where there is creation, there will be destruction. ”

"There has to be sacrifice among them in order to have a new life. ”

In the midst of his hesitation, twelve gods stood up. ”

As time passed, the majestic voice soon sounded in his mind, and a clear picture formed in his consciousness: ten of the twelve gods were apostles he knew, and the remaining two were ...... Although the image is still very vague, if you look at it in combination with Michelle's prophecy, it is obvious that it is Michelle and Ozma!

"That's nonsense! The Apostle could create a new world by committing suicide, it's just nonsense, only a fool would believe it!" Ivan scoffed at the words, retracting his left hand, which had touched the MONOCULUS emblem.

However, at this very moment, the voice of the chant in consciousness suddenly became several times louder, and the same content was repeated over and over again:

"Where there is creation, there will be destruction. ”

"There has to be sacrifice among them in order to have a new life. ”

The rumbling sound came like a wave...... It never stops, and it never stops.

The voice was full of bewitchment and power, as if the language of the devil was not limited by time and space, hovering and reverberating in Ivan's consciousness, and even being able to act on the material world, forming ripples visible to the naked eye.

"Don't you want to lie to me!"

"Nonsense! It's all nonsense!"

"I don't believe it...... I don't believe it!"

Ivan pressed his temples hard with both hands, holding back the pain of his splitting headache and trying to concentrate as he fought the waves of corrosive brain-stimulating sounds.

"Ahh

He jerked his head back and let out a roar, a mist of molten golden light in the depths of his pupils, instantly illuminating the entire underground palace.

"you!"

The next moment, Ivan gritted his teeth and looked back at the inverted pyramid-shaped object at the end of the broken bridge—two beams of light pierced through the molten golden pupils and slammed directly into the surface of the MONOCULUS sign.

Boom——!

The inverted pyramid-shaped thing fell apart entirely, then lost its buoyancy and fell into the crater below.

Immediately after, the voice that swirled and echoed in Ivan's consciousness suddenly weakened, and soon disappeared completely.
