Chapter Eighty-Eight: Danger from the Abyss
"Judging by Miss Roland's expression, you know what I'm talking about, right?" said Ilanta in a very heavy tone, "In that case... It also saves a lot of time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
ā... Be sure to explain, what the 'abyss' is. Yu Ping looked at Sharyl's ugly face, and began to feel a little uneasy in his heart.
And... When he heard the word 'abyss', Yu Ping felt as if something in his body had been touched, and at that moment, he suddenly had a feeling like blood flowing backwards.
"The so-called 'abyss'..."When Shariel just wanted to explain in detail to Yu Ping, who looked curious, the mutation suddenly reappeared!
A dim curtain of light swept out of the building, which was still spewing solid-liquid mixtures, enveloping everyone nearby...
"Damn, isn't it too late?!" Ilanta's face changed drastically, and she immediately left Yu Ping and Sharyl, who were a little overwhelmed by this wave of changes, and rushed directly to the source of the light curtain... It was originally a building where the ball was held, but now it is constantly spraying feces under the 'careful planning' of a certain thin teenager.
ā... What should we do now?" Yu Ping looked at Sharyl with a blank expression, "It looks like something very troublesome is going on here... And what the hell is that abyss?"
"If what Her Highness Elanta says is true... If the threat we face next comes from the 'abyss', then it's not just the level of 'trouble'..."Sharyl muttered in a very confused tone, "but... There is a mortal danger at any time, and if you are not careful, you will die. ā
"Is that abyss so terrifying?" Seeing that Sharyl showed an expression that Yu Ping had never seen before, called 'fear', Yu Ping looked into her eyes in a very firm tone and said, "Don't worry... No matter what danger you encounter, I will protect you, my lord. ā
ā... Thank you, Yu Ping. Hearing Yu Ping's assurance, Sharyl's face also looked a little better, "But... Until then, you have to understand what exactly the 'abyss' is. ā
"Tell me, then, my lord. Yu Ping nodded, signaling that he was ready to listen.
"Hmm... Yu Ping, you should have listened to Master Kane explain the relationship between 'world' and 'world' before, right?" Sharyl organized her language, and then asked Yu Ping.
"Yes... According to the old man's words, the place where I used to be was a 'world'..."Yu Ping hesitated for a moment, and then added, "The same 'world' with a complete 'rules' system is the same as here. ā
"That's right... The criterion for judging the so-called 'world' is that it must have at least a set of 'rules' to maintain balance," Sharyl nodded, and continued: "And the so-called 'Heaven' on the Cangyue Continent, or 'Hell' or something... It can't be called a 'world'... Although their actual area may be larger than the entire Cangyue Continent, due to the lack of 'rules', they are incomplete, and sooner or later they will be completely destroyed under the constant imbalance, and eventually return to the existence of chaos..."
Sharyl's expression became much heavier as she spoke.
"So...'Heaven' made a deal with the Holy See to sustain itself by collecting the power called 'Faith', and 'Hell' chose to do so much more brutally... In general, we call this 'aggression'. ā
"...'Hell' is it, what the hell is 'Heaven'?" the curiosity on Yu Ping's face became more and more intense, "Actually, I have wanted to ask for a long time... What kind of god does this Holy See believe in? I've been in the Holy City for so long, and I haven't seen a single 'believer' in the true sense of the word..."
"Don't interrupt!" Sharyl glared at Yu Ping dissatisfied, "... What I said before is just an example... Belief in gods is basically gone now... That was done in ancient times, and now the Holy See is just an organization strong enough to maintain its absolute neutrality, and there are no gods to dictate it... If you really want to say 'faith'... Then now there is only one belief in the entire Cangyue Continent, except for the mysterious moon god of the elven race, and the beast god of the orcs who has completely fallen under the witness of countless living beings, and that is..."
"The current number one powerhouse in the Cangyue Continent... His Majesty the Pope, who has the power of the gods in the form of a human being. ā
ā... Where's 'Heaven'?" Yu Ping asked again, "I've heard of 'Hell' before... It always seems that some idle eggs will come up with some hellish demon invasion or something... Anyway, Ollie's pink-haired three-headed dog is from hell?... Although the art style is not the same as the hellish creatures I imagined..."
"On the Cangyue Continent, there is no 'heaven' anymore. The white-haired saintess on Yu Ping's back had come to her senses more than once, and answered Yu Ping's question in a very melancholy tone, "Because... In the midst of a certain 'world war', the 'heaven', which was once the place of faith of the Holy See, was blown up. ā
"Blown up?" Yu Ping suddenly didn't know what kind of expression to make when he heard this, so he could only ask again in a daze: "How did it blow up?"
"I don't know exactly how it happened, after all, it was a long time ago," Ina frowned, although she had been in this environment for a long time, she still hadn't gotten used to the stench around her, "but... The process has been recorded in some ancient documents of the Holy See, and it is almost like the feeling of frying a watermelon..."
ā... Fried watermelon?" Sharyl was also attracted by the words of the white-haired saint... She did know that Heaven had been completely destroyed, but she knew nothing about the process.
"That's right, it's fried watermelon. Ina nodded, reaffirming, "Imagine you have a ripe watermelon in front of you and a burst magic scroll in your hand... After that, you make a hole in the watermelon, insert the alchemy scroll into it, and finally activate it... It's like heaven blowing up. ā
"This process is already very detailed, okay..."Yu Ping couldn't help but complain, "Who is so **** to blow up a place like 'Heaven'?"
"Guess what, Yu Ping, it's easy to guess," Sharyl said with a smile.
ā... It can't be the 'abyss' from before, right?" Yu Ping took the opportunity to say those two words.
"Exactly," Sharyl nodded in satisfaction, then showed a solemn expression and said slowly to Yu Ping, "So... Do you know what kind of 'danger' we're going to face next?"
