Alternate world, Terra Star Ruins

"Found it. ”

Stretching to the top of a steep mountain, a young female knight climbs over the peak and emerges on the edge of a steep cliff.

Armed with a hammer and a heavy shield, a long-haired female knight stands atop a steep peak, her gaze piercing the clouds that entangle the mountainside, towards the foot of the mountain. Beneath the horizon is an endless silver-gray ground, like a huge plain, with thousands of holes on the plain, all the way to the end of the horizon, forming a straight skyline.

She was draped in a pair of pale golden armor that was tightly knit, like a part of her body, and the armor shone with a glittering divine light. A one-foot-square iris-shaped battle shield was tightly welded to the armarmor of her left arm, so it didn't need to be clenched and didn't fall. A warhammer with a heavy sharp angle was clenched tightly in her right hand, filled with a divine radiance.

The plump breasts squeezed out of the open breastplate, bouncing slightly with the female knight's breathing.

Above the beautiful legs of a pair of metal combat boots is a short skirt-like armor skirt, even though this armor is more than 5 mm thick, the beauty of the silhouette from the curves of the female body has not been diminished in the slightest - not only is it set off heroically, but also adds a reassuring sense of security.

A strong wind swept across the mountain, and in the whirling wind, the knight's long silky pink hair spread out like a cascading waterfall, exposing her slightly baby-fat face to the air.

In the depths of her turquoise eyes, a strange silver spell floated faintly, deciphering the basic structure of the space for her.

And between the white neck of the female knight, a red necklace was scorching and shining, overflowing with bursts of radiance representing divinity.

“......”

After a brief stare, the blinding method of blocking her vision gradually dissipated from her eyes, and the seemingly ordinary plain quickly revealed its true colors.

The silver-gray ground dissipated like mist, revealing a desolate and lifeless land, a rusty earth that filled all corners of the field of vision.

It's a lifeless world, with no greenery and no water.

Floating in the sky were cloudy clouds of color, oil-stained, lifeless suspended in the air as if by an invisible force, and the whole sky was shrouded in such clouds from the top of the mountains to the end of the field of vision.

The sky and ground float in a gray hue, like a heavily polluted industrial area or an abandoned nuclear blast wasteland, but the plain is not immersed in darkness, but reflects a mysterious blue color.

The vast wasteland is rugged and silent.

The surface was dotted with broken cables, crisscrossed like spider webs, and the female knight's view was densely packed, and metal shards and mud and sand were mixed together to form plates, and rusty rails spread infinitely along the ground.

More importantly, an upside-down black tower hangs above the ruins, and all the rails and cables converge under the tower.

It looks like the sword of Damocles, ready to stab the earth at any moment, piercing the entire world.

It may be tens of thousands of meters high, and its highest point has been plunged into the depths of the sea of clouds, and even if it is dozens of kilometers away from the top of the mountain, you can still feel the pressure it brings.

The giant tower was shrouded in gray dust, as if it could disappear into the void at any moment. Looking up along its outer walls, the field of vision is enough to stretch for thousands of kilometers, and the pedestal at the other end of the sea of clouds plunges into the void, as if connecting to another world.

The female knight looked at the upside-down city in the distance, her rich red lips outlined a trace of arc, and then trembled slightly: "Enlighten my lord, Paladin Elise reports to you that the 11345 World Line has discovered the Silent City. ”

......

Paladin, the Guardian of the Upper Throne, a doppelganger of Nimel, the god of wisdom.

After the destruction of Beyana by Carloso, the creator of all things, countless fragments were scattered and existed in various dimensions.

Then the universe plunged into endless chaos and evil.

Nimel, the god of wisdom born from the beginning of time, was worried about the chaotic state of the universe.

So she turned her will into 10 doppelgangers, and told them:

From now on, you will be me, and you will inherit my will.

Thou wilt wisdom and strength be passed down to me, though ten are one,

Go and find the great will and help him to restore the concrete.

So, as the guardians, they turned into small rays of light scattered in all dimensions of the universe.

And grow down there.

Some grow up in holy places filled with divine light, while others grow up in battlefields filled with hatred.

Although their demeanor is different, they are always rooted in the same memory.

That memory will always drive them to find the great will.

Even if your eyes are shrouded in fog, you must fulfill your mission.

Now, the Guardians have found Caroso and, following his orders, wander the worldlines in search of the Apostles.

......

Inside the Silent City, the Throne of the Machines.

Evan suddenly felt uneasy, and glanced at the time marked on the information matrix—the ninety-ninth year.

Ninety-nine years had passed since he and Karn had left their original worldlines and arrived in the wasteland...... Herder's mental state is rapidly recovering and is currently on the verge of rejuvenation.

Over the years, in order to better hide his whereabouts, Evan has also built a new Silent City here, and then used the principle of light refraction to hide the Silent City under the protection of a mirage, and has now spent 99 years in peace.

"Nozomi, help me contact Karn. Evan said suddenly.

"Yes!"

It didn't take long for the light and shadow in the information matrix to twist and writhe, gradually outlining the figure of the First Apostle.

"Is there something wrong?" he asked.

"Isn't Heard awake yet, how long will it take?" asked Ivan with some haste.

"It's going to be soon, maybe only a year or two...... What's wrong? You look anxious. Karn could see that something was wrong with his expression, and his tone became solemn.

"A little uneasy...... This does not bode well. ”

Ivan pressed his hand to his eyebrows, and said a little anxiously, "No! we can't stay here...... More than 90 years have passed, not less than one or two years...... It's a big deal to go back and wait another two years. ”

Karn seemed to be infected by his emotions, and suddenly seemed to sense something: "I seem to feel this way too...... We seem to have been discovered by something. ”

"In that case, let's leave immediately!

"Yes!"

With Xiao Xi's crisp answer, the clouds in the sky converged into a whirlpool, and endless light energy was drawn down from the distant sky, and they converged into countless golden streams of light, surging towards the giant black tower below the whirlpool.

Immediately afterward, the top of the Silent City twisted, and tens of millions of blue-purple spaces appeared in that small area, and gradually expanded with the convergence of light energy.

Boom – Boom——!

After a violent electromagnetic murmur, the Silent City was like a sunlit mirage, blurred and diluted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then vanished.

......

What no one knew was that at the moment when Silent City broke away from this world line and was about to return to the main world line, a pair of azure eyes opened from the distant cosmic starry sky.

"I see you, little bug. ”

Bang——!

With just one gaze, a tremendous force bombarded the surface of the Silent City, cutting off the massive Silent City, some returning to the Overworld line, and the other being thrown into the endless Chaotic Void.

11111111111111111111111111111

Overworld Line, Chaos Space.

In the gray endless void, a circle of ripples vibrated out, and the points of light splashed and cracked, or shifted like a splash of water.

Immediately afterward, countless thick currents erupted from the center of the ripples, gradually weaving the phantom of the Silent City...... Half of the Silent City, to be precise.

Boom – Boom——!

With a burst of electric shock, the phantom of the Silent City completely condensed, and the electric sparks flickering on the surface floated in space like an out-of-control artificial satellite.

After seeing the return of the ruined Silent City, all the apostles except Lotus rushed to the scene as soon as possible.

Soon, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Karn walked out of the damaged Silent City with a sleeping pod in his arms.

"Why is it just the two of you!!?" Prey asked anxiously.

"It's Carosso. ”

Karn hugged Held's sleeping pod and said calmly, "In the ninety-ninth year of our arrival on that world line, we suddenly felt a wave of restlessness, so the maker felt that he had returned early. Who knew that it was still a step too late, and at the moment of jumping the world line, Silent City was attacked by Caroso...... Heard and I stayed at the Primordial Palace in Silent City, so we got back. The Maker is located in the Throne of the Machines in the Palace of Excellence...... I was blasted into the turbulence of time and space by that blow......"

"You fart!"

Bakar obviously couldn't accept his explanation, and the new hatred added the old hatred, and the whole person erupted like an active volcano: "No wonder I always feel that you are not at ease, it turns out that you are still working for Caroso! Evan is kind enough to accept you, and you are actually plotting against him at this time, you are simply a brute! Prei! Let's go together, we must kill him today to avenge Evan!"

In this instant, he quickly faded into human form and regained the body of a monstrous dragon.

The temperature around him rose sharply and deflected the light, and Bakar's face twisted in the light mist, like fine scales snapping together quickly, causing his dragon body to ripple like flowing water.

“......”

Without saying a word, Prey immediately released his energy stance, enveloping the figure of the First Apostle, and a thick hostility flowed from his blue-white pupils:

"You have to show proof! or I'll kill you!"

"Count me in. ”

Matega flashed to Purley's side and looked at Karn with a grim expression: "The Maker has the grace to recreate the Tartan clan, and if you kill him, we will not let you go even if we fight to destroy the whole army." ”

"Calm down!"

Seeing that they were so irritable, Shylock immediately protected Karn and explained as quickly as he could: "We cannot fight within this critical period, and we cannot conclude that Karn is the murderer or that the maker is dead until the cause and effect are thoroughly investigated. ”

"Yes, yes, calm down!

Casillas also stood up at this time, and said to the three apostles who were on a tight sare: "Think about it, what reason does Karn have to turn against the water at this time...... And Evan doesn't have to die. Even if you fall into the turbulence of time and space, there is definitely a possibility of returning. ”

"How do you come back? The space-time turbulence is a forbidden area that is more threatening than a black hole!" At this, Bakar suddenly approached Karn, stared at the sleeping Heard in his arms, and said, "Can Herder's transfer magic still pull people back from the space-time turbulence?"

"If Herder is alive, it's a little possibility, and if she dies, it's completely hopeless. Shylock said calmly.

“......”

Bakar, Prei, and Matega exchanged glances with each other, and it took a full two minutes before they nodded.

"Then reluctantly allow her to live for a few years......"

Bakar reluctantly accepted her words, and then the conversation changed, and his eyes became cold: "But...... If Evan doesn't come back, Karn and Helde will die whether they are murderers or not!"

"You can't do that! we need unity now, and we can't start infighting just because we have lost the maker!" Shylock rejected.

"Huh. ”

The Dragonlord narrowed his eyes, let out a mocking laugh, and then said contemptuously, "You woman is not a good thing, taking the benefits of the maker, but always protecting Karn's safety. ”

"Bakar, you can't get carried away by anger!" Shylock scolded, in an unkind tone.

"Yes, I'm carried away by the rage, that's because I know who my true friends are!And you, you're just going to see the wind and rudder!" Bakar taunted mercilessly, "Don't forget that it was Ivan who took you in when Karn and Herder weren't waiting to see you!"

"You!" Shylock was choked by him for a while, and said with anger in his mouth, "You stupid dragon, why are you so stubborn!"

"Stubbornness, without the Maker, the Empire of the Machine is half paralyzed, why are you fighting with Caroso!?Lick Karn on your knees!?"

"Stubborn!" Hillock was so angry with him that he almost exploded.

"I am stubborn!?Regardless of whether they are murderers or not, they should be punished with death for the sin of the creators!" roared the dragon king.

While the apostles were arguing, Karn suddenly said, "Little Xi...... Xiao Xi may have a detailed record of the crash of Silent City. If you find a detailed record, it will be possible to analyze the coordinates of the space-time turbulence at that moment. ”
