Walking through the bustling streets and walking along the banks of the St. Francis River, as far as the eye can see, almost everything has a faint trace of Peter's life in the city.

Back at the manor, it's dinner time.

During the whole dinner, he didn't say a word, as if he was in a fugue.

In addition to Wesley's vain attempts to tell a few jokes to set the mood, Ruike and the others are all influenced by Donner, and they don't know how to eat.

When Una saw the young master's appearance, she didn't even dare to report to him about her experience in the auction house during the day.

After a hasty dinner, Donner went upstairs without making a sound, leaving a table of people looking at each other.

"What's wrong with him?" Wesley asked Rickle.

"I don't know......," the half-elf girl looked in the direction of the stairs.

Wesley turned his face back to look at Layla suspiciously.

"The young master has never been so unhappy......" Layla replied quietly, she didn't know what happened to Donner.

Wesley was so anxious that he didn't even have the heart to keep a disguise in front of Una.

"We went to the cathedral today...... "Rick mused.

"Cathedral of Light?" Wesley frowned, he remembered the guess Donner had told him earlier, and if that guess was true, could it be that Donner had already met his people there?

"I'll take a look......" Ruiko got up and walked towards the stairs.

Shaida didn't move, and Una glanced at her cautiously, then bowed her head and remained silent.

In the bedroom on the third floor, Ruiko opened the door and came in, and saw Donner lying on the bed looking up at the ceiling in a daze, so he sat on the edge of the bed and asked with concern:

"What the hell is going on?"

“...... I saw another self, a self that scared me. Donner was still looking at the ceiling.

Ruiko frowned and thought for a while, then lay down sideways and gently hugged him: "I don't quite understand what you mean...... But if there really is another you, let him die. The half-elf girl stared at Donner earnestly: "One Donner in this world is enough." ”

"Let him die......" Donner repeated Reiko's words softly.

"Can you tell me what you encountered?" asked Rick softly.

Donner forced out a smile: "It's nothing, I'm probably tired, cranky, just rest for a few days......"

The half-elf girl didn't ask any more, but hugged him tightly as if she was afraid of losing, and it wasn't until a long time later that she let out a slight snoring.

Donner carefully removed her arm and helped her cover up.

In the dead of night, he sat alone at the window, looking at the golden spire of the Cathedral of Light in the dim starlight in the distance, and fell into deep thought.

He once thought that he had left the earth suddenly and came here, but he didn't expect the reality to be so bizarre, even if he didn't take into account the time spent traveling in space and traveling through wormholes, it had been more than 10,000 years since he left the earth.

For more than 10,000 years, the earth may not be what it used to be......

More than 10,000 years ago, shortly after acquiring that alien ruin, the blue planet was facing the dilemma of running out of resources.

But the question is, why would an alien civilization leave such a relic on Earth?

If it's really as straightforward as Jingwei says, it's like a manual, and not long after humans got it, they ran out of resources and were forced to colonize space...... So it's too much of a trap, like the trap that the Doctor has prepared for the people of this world.

Could it be that the technology mastered by the earthlings is actually like the magic of this world, just a profile of a certain part of the universe, or even a shackle on the road to truth?

What if that relic, like what Peter left in the world, seemed like a gift, but in fact had another purpose...... What would be the purpose? Would it be to get humans to help them collect some kind of "magic crystal"? Or would it be more complicated and more insidious?

Jingwei - the daughter of a certain god after her death, because she was unwilling to turn into a bird, in a vain attempt to fill the sea that once swallowed her - the name seems like a hint, a metaphor - could it be that the earthlings have already come to a certain conclusion or guess when they are faced with the situation of resource depletion shortly after obtaining that ruin, but Jingwei as an artificial intelligence has not been informed?

Does it mean that the civilization of Earth is actually dead, and the Jingwei is its effort to take revenge?

And, why is the world he lives in like this now?

Jingwei said that the doctor once had a guess, what was his guess?

Knights to the north, mages to the south, is this world nothing more than an arena for wisdom and courage set up by a higher civilization?

Are Downer and Dr. really the same person, or do they share a certain memory?

In terms of memory and age, for Donner, the Doctor is only a possibility of his future, but in the timeline, the Doctor did exist more than 10,000 years ago.

So, should Donner be held accountable for the sins he committed in the past for his future self?

Also, it is impossible for Peter to complete the entire teachings of the God of Light in every detail, and the countless deeds about the God of Light that have been circulated in the Magic Continent and in Middle-earth should have been created by the people of this world themselves.

Were they really being fooled, or were they in their hearts thirsting for a god that Peter was just in tune with?

Could it be that this world, the earth, and all the gods were created in this way?

Or is the so-called god just the worship of the higher civilization by the lower civilizations?

If this world, this planet, is the creation of civilization, as I guessed, then what difference does this civilization have from God to Donner?

There is an even more terrifying question -- could the alien ruins on Earth be the civilization that created this planet and deliberately left it there? If so, what is their purpose?

Donner kept asking questions to himself, but he didn't have an answer to every question.

He thought of someone who might have been a philosopher, or maybe just a madman: If the universe is the answer, then what is the problem?

Donner's experience of two very different civilizations, and the possibility of facing a higher civilization hidden in the shadows, makes him suspicious of many things that he once believed in without doubt.

He felt that in order to arrive at the answer, he would first have to choose the right questions, or at least, list them first.

Just as he did in the Institute of Overseers, helping Grantis - no matter what, even if the answer is not available for the time being, find the problem first.

But it was clear that the questions alone were not enough—the conjectures that Donner had put forward at the Inspectorate would only turn Grantis around.

So, when the first rays of the next day's rays of sunlight shone through the window, Donner made a decision: he was going to go to every corner of the planet in search of answers that might be hidden there.

Whether it was Hell, Heaven, or a desert with no people, he had to go through it himself—just like the agreement with Wesley to travel the world, except that it was no longer limited to Middle-earth.

Even if there is little hope, he has to look for possible clues - only in this way can he solve the doubts in his heart, and then find the real mastermind of all this, except for the doctor.

Of course, until then, he still has to deal with the coming war.

The Church of Light has been eroded by the Chega Mountains, so it's better to be on his own - just like when he didn't know the details of the Church of Light before, he had to break the control of the Magic Continent over Middle-earth.

At this moment, Ricko had just woken up from her sleep, and she saw Donner's face reflected in the morning sun, like the spire of the Church of Light outside the distant window, glowing with a mysterious and warm golden light.

(Is the Doctor really a wicked person?Or did he not say his true purpose??Ask for a monthly pass!Ask for a recommendation ticket!) )
