vs 550 Eternal solitude
"............" the blood pupil was silent.
He was not afraid of strong enemies, but he did not want to make enemies rashly. In fact, while the Juggernaut's tone was calm, the Blood Pupil could sense the faint pressure in the space around him. It was like a mist that hung around all their companions.
It was the throbbing brought by the strong, the surreal perception.
So after careful consideration, the blood pupil touched his chest with one hand and performed a ritual that belonged only to the conquerors of Claudir. "Hello, sir. My name is Blood Pupil. I'm not here to fight you, just to get back what belongs to me. ”
"What belongs to you......" the Juggernaut repeated softly. There was a sudden silence, and after a moment he raised his head and glanced at the 'sky' in the shadows. "Over the long years, I have so many memories that have been lost. Forgive me, young conqueror, for not understanding you. But if your desire is to get something from here, I think you should be satisfied. ”
"Oh?" Blood Pupil was stunned, unable to imagine that this master would be so easy to speak. He didn't intend to stop him in the slightest. It made him feel extremely strange.
What is this for? Could it be that his so-called guardianship is just to hear it?
"Don't be surprised." At this moment, the Juggernaut seemed to know what the Dao Blood Pupil thought, and glanced back at him. "There's a lot more you don't know. It doesn't matter, though. Right now...... Let's have a brief conversation. It's important to you and to me. ”
As he spoke, he turned around and walked behind without looking back. Blood Pupil was silent for a moment, and then followed with everyone.
Over a messy square. He finally walked up to the altar.
It is a large platform with an area of several square kilometers. In the center stands a super-large prismatic crystal. The entire platform is flat and smooth, and it is impossible to distinguish the material. The surface has a dark red sheen, like precipitated blood stains. The platform is very neat, it is truly dusty, only countless blood-like patterns slowly extend, indescribably mysterious.
The position where the Juggernaut is walking is a place behind the altar. There was nothing there. But as he got closer, it suddenly twisted, revealing a pitch-black energy portal.
"Come here. Don't worry. "Standing next to the energy portal, the Juggernaut stops." It's just a little trick. Able to provide me with a place to rest. In a sense...... It's also my home. ”
"Home?" The blood pupil couldn't help but be a little trance-like. Will this mysterious ruler also have the concept of 'home'?
Don't look at his lack of knowledge here, but he also knows that the Tao has gone through a long time. Crodil no longer has any real meaning of 'living man'. Once-glorious civilizations have disappeared into the universe, and only a few abandoned creations still prove their existence. The ruler in front of him made Blood Pupil feel jealous and made Blood Pupil feel pressure, but the only thing that Blood Pupil couldn't perceive was 'anger'. Combined with Heck's experience, the blood pupil can almost tell that the other party is also a fragment of consciousness, or a doppelganger or something.
This being is more of a 'ghost' than a 'life'.
A ghost will also have a home? It's ridiculous.
But that's not a reason for him to stop. So after a short period of thought, Blood Pupil followed without hesitation.
The pitch-black energy gate flashed away, devouring the blood pupil and the others together, and the next moment. And they came into a wilderness.
It's a place with no normal sense of space, not a planet, not a universe. It feels like a continent suspended in endless space. As far as the eye can see, there is no end.
They were located at the foot of a mountain range on this continent. Next to it is a cave. In front of the cave, there are small pebbles placed horizontally and vertically.
The Juggernaut led the group to the cave, and then randomly found a stone and sat down. …,
The shadow flickered outside of his body for a few moments before fading. A man in a hooded hat was revealed. His skin was white, bloodless pale. The body is even more slender, as if it can be blown down by a gust of wind. However, thinking of the strength he showed before, no one would underestimate him because of this.
"Sit down." He said calmly. "Nothing can entertain you. But I think you've found this place, and you must already know who I am. ”
"I'm sorry, sir." Blood Pupil was silent for a moment. Shaking his head, he said. "Actually, I don't know what to do."
"Oh?" Now it was the Juggernaut who was surprised, and he raised his head and glanced at the blood pupil. "Didn't your debugger explain it to you when you came here to test?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." The blood pupil replied. "As for my debugger, I haven't seen him in a long time."
"It......'s been a long time," the Juggernaut thought for a moment, then lowered his head and sighed. How long is it...... I have a ridiculous feeling about this word. ”
Speaking of this, the Juggernaut suddenly became a little distracted, and never looked at the blood pupil again. Instead, he picked up the stones at the entrance of the cave by himself. He would put a stone here and there. It's like an endless loop, and time passes little by little, and gradually the blood pupils can see that he is playing chess, playing chess with himself.
An empty continent floating in a strange space, a ghost who plays chess with himself.
What a strange scene this is, but I don't know what kind of blood pupil Lu Dao is, but I don't feel terrible, but I feel a trace of sadness.
This is a dutiful soul, and he has always existed as such, perhaps for a hundred years, for a thousand years, or for eternity. He stays here, guards here, he doesn't need to eat, he doesn't have any communication. From the meaning of his words, it seemed that he was waiting for some conqueror to complete the trial, but he didn't know how to go, if it wasn't for the blood pupil to come here, he would never have seen the second conqueror again. He will wait forever, with no end.
The saddest thing is that if he was a ghost without sanity, it would be fine, but he still retains some of his sanity. This is simply the most cruel punishment in the world.
Blood Pupil couldn't understand his thoughts, but he could sense the man's loneliness. And, looking forward to ......
He is still waiting, waiting for the arrival of new conquerors, waiting to see a new generation of Crodil grow, waiting, waiting to fulfill his mission.
He doesn't need to count the time, he just waits. For he believed that one day he would fulfill his mission and wait for the arrival of his successor, or the 'king' of Claudir would come and end his existence.
This is eternity......
Time passed little by little, and at this time, everyone thought of it together, and they couldn't help but look at each other in shock. The twin siblings muttered even quietly.
"Poor ......"
"Is he just going to wait?"
"Didn't he know that Claudir no longer existed?"
The voices of the twin siblings are small, but who is the master? I only heard it at once, but to the surprise of the blood pupil, he was not too excited, just raised his head, pondered in confusion for a while, and then said as if in a dream.
"It turns out that the dream is real......"
"Your Excellency." The blood pupil stepped forward. I want to comfort the other person.
But the Juggernaut just smiled and shook his head at him. "Don't worry, I'm fine. In fact, I felt it a long time ago, as if something was wrong with my subject. I just didn't expect it to be him saying goodbye to me. ”
"A soldier must die on the battlefield. I'm glad he did that. ”
"My lord......" The blood pupil fell silent, but he didn't know what to say. At this moment, he was full of respect for the Juggernaut. At the same time, there is an endless yearning for that ancient war.
What kind of fierce war can make the main body of such a powerful ruler die on the battlefield. That is the pinnacle of true warriors, the ultimate glory of all warriors. In such a battlefield, whether it is victory or death, as long as you have fought, I am afraid it will be a kind of glory, right? …,
For fighters, that's happiness.
Perhaps this happiness is not yet understood by the Blood Pupil, who has mostly fought so far to survive. However, this does not prevent him from paying homage to true warriors.
"That's right." It was the Juggernaut who came to his senses first, revealing a faint smile. "Speaking of which, I haven't introduced myself yet. You may call me 'Shadow', young conqueror, I don't know what you're here for, but I need some help from you. Can you tell me what time it is? How many more years have passed since our civilization was destroyed...... Blood Pupil was speechless for a moment, and then shook her head after a while. Said regretfully. "I'm sorry, my lord, but I don't know what to do."
"Huh?" The Juggernaut is strange. "For what?"
"That's the ......" Looking at the ruler's gaze, the blood pupil gradually calmed down, and introduced the current environment of the universe. He mentioned the classification of cosmic civilizations, and also mentioned the blockade and pursuit of the ancient war by cosmic civilizations, and the blockade and pursuit of the Crodil civilization. Also vaguely ...... Rhea was mentioned.
Little by little, more than seven hours passed before I knew it. In the process, people forget about hunger. They all listened quietly to the blood pupil's narration. Maybe there are many things that the blood pupil said that they already know, but there are also some parts that no one has ever heard.
There was a chill in the air, and before I knew it, the wind was already blowing. An icy wind swept across the land, rolling up gusts of sand and gravel. It also raised the great majesty of the 'shadow' of the dominator.
He looked up, seemed to look at the sky in confusion, and finally sighed.
"Original...... It's been so long...... Our civilization has been erased? ”
"It's ridiculous. As in the past, they are still so afraid of us. I'm afraid we'll wake up again. Even if it is gone, the great Crodil is still a nightmare for those who are hypocrites. ”
With that, he put down the stone in his hand and once again set his gaze on the blood pupil. "Young conqueror, I think I know what you're here for. I know what your debugger is thinking, damn Rhea, maybe I should settle an account with him. ”
As he spoke, he suddenly raised a finger and released a black light at the blood pupil. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Novel.com...... Voting for recommendation votes, monthly passes, your support is my biggest motivation. )RQ
