"It looks like your prophecy is wrong, Zechariah, and the war has not come. ”

Ulliel patted Zachariah on the shoulder, the ship had just returned to the underground pyramid, and Shrike called back Aaron and Aldridge, who had led the troops in an ambush at Jebus.

"There will be times when the prophecy will go wrong, sister, I didn't see the launch line of Lord Garence in the prophecy, but you also felt it, the ...... behind the space door"

"I know, it feels like it's not magic, it's more like something that's supposed to be there, like .....," Ulliel thought for a moment, "like part of reality, and I don't think the angels were aware of it." ”

"Maybe it's because we're connected to Lord Garence, but who knows, it might not be a good thing. ”

"yes, who knows, by the way, Zachariah, why does Lord Garence call himself so much about the identity of the gatekeeper?"

"Wow," Zachariah said, his expression strange, "that's another horror story about this." ”

............

400 years ago, the central large vertical groove

Gallance considered the words of the Apocalypse and prepared to dig deeper into his own power, the Apostles, including Adam and Lilith, had the essential power derived from the Fruit of Life, although he had speculated whether the Fruit of Life was the S2 mechanism, but Gallence quickly vetoed this, firstly, people guessed that the S2 mechanism simply provided infinite energy, which made it difficult to explain the application of the apostles in the soul, let alone the later godhood, and the other point, in fact, the S2 mechanism itself was just a conjecture, just a model set by people because they could not explain the origin of infinite energy with science。

If so, Garence would need some mystical help to understand his own power, and the only thing he could think of was the dark book.

The power of the Divine Book comes from the Immortal God Sithorne, an unusually powerful ancient god whose power rivals that of the five gods in his own dimension, and while Setolak can almost do that, it is clear that the irascible demon doesn't want to listen to Garence's nonsense.

Turning the door to the divine book, thinking about his own questions in his mind, Garence quietly waited for the response of the divine book, the passage of time was unusually slow, just when he was in doubt, a thrilling erupted in the divine book, the cold unknown was like the power of the cold winter stirring the river Styx, immersed in it as if the brain was pasted on the wall of the Siberian ice cave, Gallance's brain almost lost the consciousness of thinking, he felt himself spinning with countless screaming souls, like the song of the siren, like the piercing scream of the banshee....... Then it slowly fell into a deep gate.

Before Garence's consciousness was completely gone, he heard a woman's voice, harsh and beautiful, terrifying and charming, evil but full of temptation, "Don't worry, go to sleep, the wolves are still wandering in the night of the forest." “

There was a rotten smell in the air, but mixed with a hint of the fragrance of roses, like an immortal combination of a cemetery, roses, and a jungle of thorns, "Where am I ....." Garence covered his head, swayed to his feet, and opened his eyes slightly, his consciousness was still blurred, and his vision was not very clear, and suddenly there was a sad tune around, and the canopy was clothed in night, and he struggled to die at dusk, but he had to bow down in the ancient fate, leaving only nothingness.

"Welcome to the Land of the Dead. “

A familiar voice came from the misty and illusory throne behind him, "Unfortunate soul, tell me, why did Sithorne send you to this lonely land?"

"I ......," Garence turned to face the throne in the mist, his expression wary and puzzled, "where am I, you..... Who is it?"

The woman's voice was deep and seductive, and each word resonated with two entangled tones, "Confused soul, where you are is the final destination of the creatures of the entire multiverse, this is death, and I am death." “

Shock and complication flooded into Garence's mind for a moment, and the answer meant a lot, it was possible that he had been teleported here, and of course the other was that he was dead.

"I ......."

"Still alive. ”

Hearing the answer of the goddess, the stone in Garence's heart finally let go, as long as he is not dead, everything will take a turn, more than a thousand years of life, in the face of the weight of the gods, he immediately adjusted his mind, and now the only question is to ask what he will come here, is this the answer given by the divine book to himself?

"I'm trying to solve the mystery hidden in my body, here is the answer given to me by the Divine Book, is death my destination?" Garence longed for the goddess's answer, as the most special of the five gods, death is full of emotions but also murderous, provoking chaos but also hoping for the stability of the universe, as a regular entity she has been balancing the universe in contradictions.

"I saw a strange soul, a new life form, tell me, what's your name?"

"Garence," he continued, after a pause, "Amenut. ”

"The name of the earth, but you don't belong there. ”

The goddess slowly stepped down from the throne, the fog around her disappeared, and she was dressed in a white robe, but under the hood was a white bone and a skeletal face.

"I can feel that your body is merging with a part of the world," death hammered on Garence's chest, "an omen, it's interesting." ”

"Omen?" made Garence even more puzzled, "what omen, fate or what?"

Death did not make a sound, she walked around Garence, in this dead and dark space he suddenly had a longing, longing for the disappearance of everything, longing for the isolated self, this thought was like a resolute wall erecting a barrier in his heart, exacerbating his sense of solitude, Gallance tried his best to keep himself, he knew that it should be the apostle's isolated thoughts attacking, the source of the A.T force field, the refusal to communicate with them.

"It's wonderful to be absolutely isolated, to be absolutely alone, even if your soul is hostile to each other, even if they have to live in the same body, driven each other to the same goal in the midst of strife and conflict. Death carefully admired the changes in Garence, and the body of the creature in front of him was constantly flashing with a rainbow-colored force field, and it could be seen that he was fighting, but it would not be for long.

Death, that is, the hostile side of life, but it is an indispensable existence in life, life is inseparable from death, because the need for new continuation so the old individual goes to the end of life, and the new individual grows in the ashes, life and death are inseparable from each other, this is the reason why Gallence was inspired to exert power in this land of death, death after he entered this field, he felt the extreme, abnormal, boundless life, the collision of new life and death is like the aurora on a deserted land, and the power to embellish the night comes from the sun after all。

"Your strength is life, Garence. Death looked at him, in absolute isolation she wasn't sure if Garence could hear herself, "My brothers, Devourers of Planets, Eternity, Infinity, Annihilation, none of them have mastered absolute life, and I guess you're the answer, the answer to balance the universe." Death's eyes glowed with an unusual brilliance, and she conjured up her body to penetrate the A.T force field and touch Garence carefully, for the first time in tens of billions of years, she was so excited, life will eventually die, but how can death not thirst for life?

At this time, in Garence's body, eighteen cores, including himself, rotated together, emitting boundless light and heat, like stars in red cumulus clouds, and a large amount of death power surrounded him, just as death thought, the destination of life is death, and the power of the two did not conflict, and they fused together as if there was a chemical reaction.

The eighteen cores actually broke away from Garence's body, and formed a vertical shape under the A.T force field, like a circular saw cutting through the space in front of them.

The grating was mottled, the space was swirling with brilliant ripples, and finally a gate opened, and Gallance looked inside, and in just one corner, there was a golden light shooting out, the hill was suspended above the jasper spring, the sand was like pearls with gold, the newborn morning light and the quiet night were suspended in the sky together, there was a forest on the island, balm and sweat flowed from under the golden bark, the green grass covered the land under the big trees, and in the center of all this beauty was a towering tree, with two fruits on the tree, faintly hanging down, full and juicy.

Garence stared at everything, and several words appeared in his mind—the dark realm, the fruit of life, the fruit of wisdom.

Not only him, but even the mind of death also appeared the meaning of these words, the dark realm: the power used to balance the desires of the world, the fruit of life: the primordial power of life, the fruit of wisdom: the power of the birth of wisdom.

"New balance," at this moment even death was shocked, among the five gods there is indeed a mutual relationship of constraints, just like the relationship between Galatus the Planet Devourer and eternity, once the Star Eater dies, the eternal brain will realize the appearance of the rune and give birth to a new god. She believed that this dark realm was the result of her and Garance's balance.

"What happens to the world once life and death embrace each other?"
