Chapter 28: The Gods Enter Valhalla (Part I)

Cheng Mo heard someone talking, and said a classic line from "Blade Runner", and immediately turned around, and what caught his eye was a long-haired man wearing a black tuxedo white shirt and a black bow tie, and he also had a face that Cheng Mo was not familiar with, but it was impossible to forget it anyway.

Cheng Mo blurted out with a little surprise: "Uncle Li....."

"Your carrier is really a bit like your father....." Although Li Jiting was dressed very seriously, his smile was very uninhibited, and he felt like a yuppie gentleman.

Li Jiting's sudden appearance is a reasonable and unexpected thing. But this is not what surprised Cheng Mo, what made him feel incredible was that he actually appeared in this extremely dreamy and unrealistic place in the form of his own body.

In addition, with the carrier's strong perception, Cheng Mo couldn't detect Li Jiting's appearance at all, as if he was a ghost. Cheng Mo found that the light curtain map that was originally in front of him had disappeared, Cheng Mo stretched out his hand and rotated the ring, but he couldn't summon the light curtain that displayed the map and information.

"This is the only place on Earth where quantum satellites can't reach, so you can't turn on the auxiliary equipment, to be honest, I don't think you should rely too much on the auxiliary equipment......" Li Jiting naturally noticed Cheng Mo's movements and patted Cheng Mo on the shoulder.

"Quantum satellites?"

"Yes, there are about sixty quantum satellites above the Earth serving the Chosen System....."

Cheng Mo really had too many doubts to answer, and he couldn't help but ask again: "What are these technologies .....?"

But as soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by a smiling Li Jiting, "Don't ask these questions that I can't answer and can't answer, about the Chosen One system, about how these technologies came about, about how many years this thing has existed, about what the purpose of its existence..."

Li Jiting shrugged his shoulders again, pursed his lips, and said seemingly relaxedly: "To be honest, I also want to know.... But the truth is such a thing, it's not me who said it, it's going to be the truth, the truth is a lot of trivial and subtle pieces, and when you think you've pieced them together, maybe you'll find that you've not collected enough pieces, and you're actually missing a part, and maybe you'll find that a few of them seem to be misplaced, or even that they're not the original pieces...... I thought, the truth doesn't exist, and maybe ......"

Li Jiting used his middle finger and index finger to make a V-shaped shape and pointed to his eyes, "Because we humans always have only two eyes and can't see the whole truth, we will always be one-sided....."

Cheng Mo couldn't understand why Li Jiting would say such a subtle and meaningful paragraph.

"What I can tell you so far is that the Chosen and the Gladiators are a huge number of groups, whether it is the Chosen One or the gladiators, the competition between them is very cruel, this is a real world of the jungle, the gladiators are desperately working towards the Chosen One, the Chosen One is desperately working towards entering the Heavenly List, and the people who enter the Heavenly List desperately want to become the twelve gods.... Legend has it that if you can become the twelve god generals, you can gain immortal power, and as long as you are not defeated, you can become an eternal existence like the incarnation.... But these are all legends, not to mention that they are far away from you, they are still far away from me....."

Before he finished speaking, Li Jiting smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Actually, it's nothing special, it's just another pyramid-like human society composed of some people..... So, Cheng Mo, don't think about it so much, just treat it as a game, relax your mind, and have a good experience!"

Some of these things Cheng Mo knows, such as gladiators and the Chosen One, and some he doesn't know, such as the Heavenly List, such as the Twelve Divine Generals.....

But at this moment, Cheng Mo wanted to know more about another question, he was silent for a moment, glanced at the golden temple towering at the end of the long staircase, and asked softly, "Uncle Li, do you know why my father died?"

"I'm looking into this as well..... It looks like a simple body was discovered by other Chosen and then killed, but no more clues have been found yet.... But don't worry, I'll do my best to look into it...."

Seeing that Cheng Mo's face was expressionless, and his handsome face was full of coldness, Li Jiting said seriously: "Cheng Mo, you are a smart child, you don't care about your father's death now, and you don't have the ability to manage it, let's save your life first....." After a pause, Li Jiting said again: "Let's go, let's go up, go to Valhalla to complete the registration....."

After speaking, Li Jiting began to walk forward, but he did not walk very fast, but looked at the boundless universe above his head like enjoying the scenery, and climbed upwards like a horse.

"Valhalla, isn't it called the Pantheon?"

"It's okay, it's just that I'm used to calling it Valhalla. ”

"You...... You must be waiting for me!"

Li Jiting nodded, "Of course, I gave you the Ouroboros watch, so naturally I have to be your guide...... Actually, this should have been your father's duty, but it's a pity...."Li Jiting replaced the unfinished words with a regretful sigh, but there was not much sadness in his emotions, maybe he was used to seeing death, maybe he saw through death, all in all, it was very subtle.

"Guide?"

"It's probably similar to the role of a tutor, arranging work for his students, arranging research, and arranging for writing papers..... Of course, you can also squeeze the students by the way...."Li Jiting shrugged his shoulders and smiled

"Really, thank you very much!" Even if the Ouroboros watch came from his father, but Li Jiting gave him a kindness that Cheng Mo really couldn't repay, he didn't think that it was what Li Jiting had to do, he stopped, bent down and bowed deeply to Li Jiting, and didn't get up for a long time.

Li Jiting rubbed Cheng Mo's hair, and laughed: "You don't blame me for not directly telling you how to use the Ouroboros watch!"

"This test is something I should accept, and I have to thank you no matter what!" Cheng Mo still didn't get up.

Li Jiting patted Cheng Mo's arm vigorously and motioned for him to get up, "Okay, don't be so hypocritical, your father and I are also good friends, and I originally planned to wait for you to graduate from high school and give it to you after you were admitted to the capital..... But at the funeral, I found out that you had a heart attack, so I gave you in advance, and the points of the carrier upgrade can be used to enhance the ontological physique, which can at least ensure that you live healthy and healthy like a normal person for a few more decades, but the premise is that you must be able to become the Chosen One, and do not become someone else's ATM and stepping stone in the Chosen One sequence..... It's hard to say whether it's actually a blessing or a curse...."

"How do I get points for upgrades?" Knowing that there is really a *** function in the Ouroboros watch, Cheng Mo, who has always been calm, is not calm, and can't wait to ask.

"You'll know this when you sign up!"

The two of them talked as they stepped on the pale golden staircase, which looked like a gold forged staircase, and finally came to the end of the staircase, and came to the incomparably shining temple belonging to the gods.

This mountain-like temple has a triangular spire, supported in the air by countless intimidating stone pillars of height, Cheng Mo visually observed, these are carved into huge stone pillars with both hands holding swords, the tip of the sword is on the ground, wearing a hat and cloak, at least seventy or eighty meters high, Cheng Mo walked by this huge stone pillar, not as high as the instep of the sword bearer, which reminded Cheng Mo of the Monkey King playing in the palm of Rulai's hand. (The BGM "Life" in this chapter - Harry Gregson-illiams is from the movie "Alien Prequel: Prometheus)")

Walking through the stone pillars, there is a huge golden door, the golden door as high as a building is carved with the dark lines of the Ouroboros, Cheng Mo looked up, as if he saw the towering Mount Everest, majestic and solemn, representing the power of nature beyond the reach of human beings.

And standing here is even more exciting than standing on the top of Mount Everest.

Standing here is like standing at the center of the universe.

Cheng Mo thought to himself that all this should be just an illusion, even in another world, the Giant Country, it is impossible for such a magnificent spectacle to exist, but next he will see a scene that makes his soul tremble.

Cheng Mo followed Li Jiting into Valhalla, which was not at all as classical as it looked, with no intricate and ornate murals on the triangular roof and surrounding walls, and the whitened hall was empty, with nothing, no statues, no stone pillars, except for three huge walls and a triangular ceiling.

And the ceiling, the floor, and the walls are huge liquid crystal displays, which are constantly flashing constellation coordinates, mathematical formulas, physical formulas, biological formulas, and all kinds of graphics, all kinds of numbers, words, and even musical notes, which seem to be in line with all kinds of human civilizations....

"Just find a place to write down your registered name and real name, on the wall, on the floor, you can ....." Li Jiting whispered to Cheng Mo, his face with an uninhibited smile all the time, and after entering Valhalla, he became serious and smiled.

"What do you write it in?" The incredible contrast made Cheng Mo a little dumbfounded, and it took him a long time before he came back to his senses and asked suspiciously.

"Just your fingers...."

"Of course, if you use your fists, it's okay to write bigger....." Then he reached out and slapped himself in the mouth, and said with a look of annoyance, "You shouldn't joke in this kind of place." ”

Cheng Mo let out an "oh", turned around and walked to the wall not far behind him, when a string of colorful hexagonal biological chains appeared, and Cheng Mo used his finger to scratch his Chinese username and real name on the screen: "Dawn Star, Cheng Mo".

His neat handwriting appeared on the screen, flashed three times, and then disappeared, Cheng Mo turned around and was about to ask Li Jiting, but saw that the LCD wall facing the door had become blank, and the surrounding walls had also become blank, and then it had become a picture of the universe, nebulae, black holes, white holes, majestic and conditional.....

Then Wagner's majestic "The Gods Enter Valhalla" surged through the hall like a metal tidal wave, making people's scalps tingle and trembling all over.

Cheng Mo looked up, feeling as if the entire temple had become transparent, and he could directly see the universe outside, only the opposite wall was still a screen, but this still did not prevent him from standing in the temple, and the feeling of being surrounded by the universe was even stronger.

Cheng Mo swallowed a mouthful of saliva, walked to Li Jiting's side, and found that he was chanting something in a solemn voice at this moment, Cheng Mo was waiting to listen carefully, and saw a piece of Chinese slowly floating up on the white LCD screen opposite, which seemed to be exactly the same as Li Jiting's recitation.

"In this world, there are always wise men who are driving the evolution of human beings one after another, and it is a long and difficult process. In the long dark night of 40,000 years, they held high the flame of culture and science, leading mankind to eternity, and they guarded the boundaries of human cognition in the boundless universe, silently opening up territory. ”

"In order not to let human civilization come to an end, in order not to let slavery prevail over freedom, in order not to let desire prevail over morality, in order not to let ignorance prevail over wisdom, they desperately light the torch of truth, they seek the way forward through the glimmer of truth in long meditations, and they excavate the profound characteristics of the world in never-ending experiments......"

"All human beings must know that, whether by reason or emotion, our ideals have nothing to do with progress or obsolescence, loss or gain, but with the appearance or actual content of things, but with the existence and perdition of human beings......"

"We should abhor obedience and submission, forgetfulness and betrayal, the shallowness and ignorance of the heart. We should also understand that true life, true truth, is above opposing concepts, above desire and faith, above machine and mind, above reason and piety......"

Cheng Mo listened to Li Jiting's magnetic voice echoing in his mind in the solemn and shocking notes, he seemed to stand still in the torrent of history, and the words hit his heart like a morning bell.....

"Only the truth is the indestructible weapon of our humanity!"

"Only they are the immortal gods of our humanity!"

Suddenly, there was the sound of huge footsteps, and the whole temple trembled, and a golden statue of a giant with curly hair walked in through the gates of Valhalla.

"The Chosen One's all-time ranking in the Celestial Rankings - The Incarnate: Eternal Force Isaac Newton......"
