Chapter 62: Warning
The beauty in a military sword is quietly suspended between the sea and the sky, like an untouchable phantom, but she carries a cold and awe-inspiring winter fragrance, like a plum blossom blooming in the snow. Her long, silvery hair danced in the cold wind, and the edges of each strand shimmered.
"How does it feel to be suppressed by me, frustrated?" Ivan sensed her faint sense of loss, and looked closely at her face, smiling eyes that seemed to be burning with fire.
"Do you want to hear from your heart?"
Eru Lome's expression didn't change, she just glanced at him, and read the seriousness in those dark pupils. The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes under his slender eyelashes revealed a little sadness, and he replied calmly:
"You're the only one who left me in the dust, and during my time in captivity, I regretted countless times why I didn't kill you sooner. But now I get it...... If I replace you with someone else, I will definitely pay a heavier price than death. Now that I've been given a second life, why should I bother with the past?"
Speaking of this, she looked at Evan squarely, flashing her eyes rippling like a dragonfly: "The weapon of beauty is also a heavy burden, and many people in power want their partners to be the walking dead, let alone forgive those who betray them...... I'm a lucky woman. β
"So, why do you think it's uncomfortable for your strength to be suppressed by me?" Evan looked at her with sharp eyes, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
"Why...... Is it?"
Eru Romei's eyebrows were puzzled, and her silver-gray eyes looked at the sky:
"Probably because of Ugarth's negation, I thought that I was not far from you, and the reason why I lost to you was only because the handling of government affairs slowed down the pace of studying the holy scriptures. But judging from the evaluation of the Divine Source Machine, the distance between you and me is not just a matter of strength...... There is an overwhelming talent gap. "Actually, the answer is obvious, isn't it? The fact that you can surpass me in just six years proves that your talent is unfathomable. β
"Talent?"
Ivan shook his head and smiled silently.
Ugarte's so-called talent gap is only based on the current situation, and judging the relationship between the two of them in the Divine Source Machine is not enough to prove which of their innate endowments is superior or inferior. From a factual point of view, he is definitely not as good as Ailu Luomei, the other party has trained the Sun Gold Sutra to the third level before he is ten years old. And it took him thirteen years to reach the threshold of the second level...... Although the results are not bad, compared to Eru Lomei's shocking progress, it can only be regarded as mediocre.
Even if he received the Holy Book of Hades and received the blessing of the Holy Body of Ozmandis, it was not enough to make Ivan reborn and have the talent to compete with Elu Lomei. At best, the lookout turned into an uplook, and if he only relied on these two golden fingers, he would be thrown farther and farther away by Eru Romei.
Ivan knew very well in his heart that what really allowed him to overtake in the corners was actually two inadvertent choices: one was to learn mixed martial arts with Kalenz, and the other was to enter the invisible space for life and death.
The dual physical and mental training of mixed martial arts has brought the self-healing effect of the Blessed Communion to the extreme, which is why his training progress has shocked Karenz. If he only studied the two holy scriptures, then he should still be stuck at about the third level - after all, the upgrading of the two holy scriptures relied on water grinding work, and he couldn't do the brave and refined martial arts and get stronger and stronger.
Correspondingly, the extreme environment of the invisible space also makes the characteristics of mixed martial arts stronger and stronger to the limit. Every trial is accompanied by corresponding dangers, and the invisible city in the fourth stage is even more dangerous, comparable to struggling to survive in hell.
Because of this, after successfully reversing the future, Ivan's heart has been completely transformed. The spiritual sublimation, coupled with the blessings of the Blessed Sacrament and the accumulation of the two holy texts, made him truly begin to advance by leaps and bounds. Combined with this series of advantages, he condensed the soul fire in less than a year, creating a record that the federal elite could not create.
As for the talent of the creator, it was already later.
Without the previous series of accumulation, it is impossible to activate this talent at all.
Judging from Apus's evaluation of Evan, the talent that the Divine Source Machines like should be the talent of the creator, which is completely different from Evan's innate endowment. Therefore, Elu Luomei's loss is completely a misjudgment caused by information asymmetry, and the actual situation is fundamentally different from what she imagined.
If you were to reverse the order in which Evan and Eru Lomme drove the Lord of Light, Ugarte would definitely have a different attitude towards her. At the end of the day, the creator's talent is too outstanding. Under its light, even a rare genius like Elu Lomei would be eclipsed.
"I can understand your mood a little bit now. β
The ghost made the god send, and Evan thought of the scene when he watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms TV series in the last life, Zhou Yu lost his wife and folded his soldiers and was vomited blood by Zhuge Liang. This situation is indeed somewhat similar to the current situation, so he said with a smile:
"Do you think that since Menes gave birth to Eru Lome, why did Evan appear again?"
"Poof!"
She smiled rarely, the more cold people like her, the more beautiful the smile became, as if the ice and snow were melting, and the water was gurgling.
"So it's not a bad thing to be suppressed by me, at least not that much. Evan held her slender hand as warm as jade, and said with a serious relief:
"And make up for what you're lacking. β
"What do I lack?" said Eru Lome, who quickly pricked up her ears, her eyes flashing with clear eyes, and made an expression of humble inquiry.
"A girl's heart. β
β......β
Eru Romey's face suddenly turned half red, gritted her silver teeth and glared at him hatefully, and then immediately unfolded her body, turning into a narrow golden meteor and heading straight for the shoreline, leaving Evan alone in place.
"It turns out that I still have a girl's heart. β
Ivan reflected on the shy look she had just looked, nodded repeatedly, and then lunged forward. Accompanied by an elongated afterimage, it also turned into a golden meteor and chased after the figure of Eru Lomei.
One by one, one by one
Space Fortress, late at night.
Ivan sat in the darkness with his eyes closed, his arms flat, and his palms folded above and below. Faint silk thread-like golden electric light penetrates the fingers, frequently intertwining up and down.
Wow-whew!
The dense arc of electricity snapped together, and Ivan arched his back and bent over like a bell, and a heavy sound like a drum came from his body, which continued to run over the bedroom in waves, and the air in the dark space was like waves that continued to rise and fall. His whole person was like turning into a huge and powerful beating heart, driving the void around him to rhythm with it.
He was in the center of the ripples, his hands were slightly bent in his ten fingers, and the electric current between his palms was twisted and floating, gradually condensing a golden vortex, and a golden light wheel with a very textured texture inside was taking shape.
As the near-physical light wheel gradually took shape, the air in the bedroom vibrated and became disordered, and the deep and vast power fluctuations covered the entire bedroom. It seemed to bring the breath of another world, and Evan's figure gradually drowned in the depths of the light.
β......β
Ivan gradually covered himself with a purple-black film of light, and the dark power of the Hades Sacred Book formed a layer of armor that stuck to his cheeks. In the pupils, countless black gears, large and small, are spinning forward and backward.
Ahββ!h
Suddenly, the golden light wheels in the palms of his hands trembled violently, echoing with a strange sound like thunder and a lion's roar, as if something was incubating at a rapid pace and breaking the seal!
Clickββ!
With a sound like the glass cracking, the golden light wheel seemed to seep into some kind of impurity, and a pitch-black pattern appeared in an instantβthe original holy book body carvings on the surface of the light wheel were distorted into earthworms in an instant, overlapping and piecing together a twisted and roaring face.
The inside of the light wheel seemed to seal another dark world full of demons, and the shrill roars of resentment came and went, and faintly released an ominous and vicious aura. The golden wheel of light seemed to dissolve, and the surface continued to float and fall, releasing bursts of scorching energy radiation.
β......β
Ivan tightened his grim face, his eyelids beat wildly, and the sound of his heart beating louder and faster in his body seemed to be becoming more and more difficult to control the gradually alienating light wheel.
Ahh
In the countless overlapping roars, the golden light wheel distorted more and more, the leaking light energy became more and more intense, and the high temperature and air waves in the bedroom quickly turned into a scene like a high-temperature boiler.
......
In the process, Ivan's consciousness fell into absolute darkness, and various distorted patterns flashed in his mind...... Spinning gears, dead plants, the cold and despair of the planet completely swallowed up by darkness...... The encrypted memories were deliberately induced by some force to turn into nightmares that he couldn't escape.
A shattered, dark dream, overlapping nightmares, Evan falls from one abyss of despair to another, endlessly repeating futile resistance.
He passed through the burning mechanical city, where countless heavy humanoid mechs were fighting each other, and blood flowed in the streets and alleys, as if it were a flood of water.
He saw a silver mech with wings on its back fall to its knees, its eyehole cut to a crack. He saw countless faceless mechs with white wings of light falling from the sky, and the burning earth cracked into ravines. He saw the images of the gods in the temple frescoes, being burned by white flames, and let out a terrible wail.
Time stands still, countless bloody and brutal massacres are condensed at this point in time, only he is lonely and out of the matter, and the witnesses are swallowed up by the earth one after another.
When the whole world was burned to the ground, he returned to the former city of Ekhtadon, where he found Menes tied to the stake and set on fire by a group of men in white robes and hats. Hundreds of thousands of people stood in the setting sun and looked at him at the same time, drowning him in countless desperate stares, questioning him why he was blasphemous.
He also passed the palace of the royal city, and outside the door of the dormitory stood countless wooden stakes with sharp tops, and the head of Eru Rome hung in the very center.
She suddenly opened her eyes and stared at him resentfully: "It's entirely your fault that everyone suffers like this. Finish, don't blasphemy, or with the coming Final Judgment, all blasphemers will be purified by the flames. β
Then he fell from the pitch-black abyss again, and fell into the boundless waters of blood, which slowly churned over the waves and rose higher and higher. He ran as hard as he could, but his body gradually stiffened, and his legs became heavier and heavier as if they were filled with lead. The trek seemed to be never-ending, with nowhere to rest, and there wasn't even a reef as far as the eye could see.
......
The real world, in a dark bedroom.
The concentration of dark power in the space became higher and higher, and finally condensed into a solid black sun, suspended behind Ivan's back. He just felt his mind tremble violently, the whitest and purest light flooded everything, and his originally arched back was completely straightened at this moment.
"Whew!"
Ivan subconsciously opened his mouth and exhaled, and a waterfall-like wave of scorching air suddenly poured out, rumbling throughout the bedroom. It was at this moment that he realized that he was dreaming...... He hadn't fallen asleep in years, and this was the first time he had experienced anything like this, so he struggled desperately to wake up.
As he struggled hard, golden light burst from the inside of the black sun, resisting the uncontrollable power of darkness.
Whooshββ!
The pure golden light was like a bolt of lightning, mercilessly splitting the black sun into hundreds of pieces, and the shattering sound that could not be described in words was instantaneous
Resounding through the space. The bedroom suddenly sank into darkness, and everything lost its color, making it seem as if you were wandering inside a black hole.
I don't know how long it took, but the wailing and hissing of the countless highlands suddenly fell silent. The dazzling light of molten gold suddenly overflowed the light wheel, and for a moment, the entire space was full of golden glare and writhing black shadows.
β......β
Evan snapped his eyes open, the sword-like light in his pupils fading, and glanced around the dimly lit walls of his bedroom. Then he breathed heavily, calming his drumming heartbeat, and the dizziness came one after another, as if a dangerous blood vessel was pounding in his brain and would burst at any moment.
"How so!?"
He looked down at his hands, slowly clenching them into fists, diluting the illusory feeling he had just woken up from his nightmare.
Ivan knew that his condition was absolutely abnormal, and in the past few decades he had studied two sacred texts, he had never found a situation in which he suddenly fell asleep and had nightmares. And these nightmares came so suddenly, so real...... It's like he's been through it himself.
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and narrowed his eyes suddenly, and the pupils of his eyes revealed a look of realization: "Final judgment, the fall of the gods...... Is this a warning from the root of all evil? is this thing warning me that if it is prevented from resurrection, it will purify the world with fire?"
