Chapter 63: A New Era
That terrifying illusion made even Chen Sheng at the moment still feel a little palpitating.
He didn't know why, and suddenly a question came to mind.
What era is the time in the current world?
The time records of the Amazons do not seem to coincide with the epoch times of the human world.
And since he came to this world, he has not had time to leave the paradise island and enter the human community of this world.
In what he originally knew, Diana, the princess of Paradise Island, would leave Paradise Island during the World War and enter human society, eventually facing the ambitious Ares and then defeating him.
But the world he lives in is not like this at all.
Including Ares' attack on Paradise Island, it may be because he came to this world, so he disrupted everything.
But Chen Sheng vaguely felt that this was not exactly the case.
Inspired by the multiverse, he understands that in fact, the universe has vast infinite dimensions, and in this multiverse, there may be countless earths, countless plausible worlds, and even countless Chen Sheng, and he is just a lucky person who can know the wonder and incredibleness of this world, just like the ancient master described-
The infinite universe is full of vitality, some are bizarre, some are indescribable, and some are full of dead silence and are on the verge of destruction.
So, what kind of parallel world is this DC Universe-like world?
"Look at these human beings, how cruel and crazy they are, even the real demons will be afraid."
As if sensing Chen Sheng's doubts, suddenly, a new illusion appeared in front of Chen Sheng.
Is that... A brutal and incomparably bloody war.
In order to win, human beings do everything they can, crazy religion, and the worship of nations, national leaders, the rapid development of guns and firearms, greedy human beings continue to demand from this world, but they will never be satisfied to stop this crazy footsteps, and even, Chen Sheng's body suddenly shook, he saw some plausible familiar pictures in the continuous transformation of this illusion...
Some of the things he remembered in his military career are very memorable... It was a war in the Eastern world.
The land of Huazhou struggled in blood and fire, full of devastation, and the crazy Kou invaders even tried to defeat this land that was once regarded as the hometown of origin, poisonous gases, bacteria... Any cruel and horrific means that can be imagined or unimaginable have been unleashed to the fullest.
These illusions that go straight into the most real war, so cruel and bloody that even the most evil demons will make their scalps tingle when they see them.
Even Chen Sheng had never been exposed to the essence of war that had been completely stripped of any concealment.
These images were finally frozen on a huge explosion illusion, the ultimate weapon that humans could create, two nuclear bombs, exploding on the land of the Kor tribe.
The illusion disappeared, and it was obvious that these two visions were the handiwork of Charon.
Chen Sheng glanced at Athena, who seemed to see the same thing, and fell into a half-silence like him.
This is no longer the age of God.
The gods are gone, and the madness of mankind is no longer shackled.
Chen Sheng took a deep breath of the somewhat corrupt and cold air of the underworld.
He didn't know what to say, but he probably understood one thing, the world seemed to have passed the Second World War, maybe it had just ended, maybe it had been over for a while.
But it should not have developed into a new era like the world he was in.
"Why, Athena, this is the painful memory of the undead in the underworld... Do you see, as long as human beings are still so cruel, the world is a prison that is more terrible than hell. After reading this, do you still think that reality is worth saving? ”
Charon's gloomy voice sounded again from afar and near.
"I have no interest in saving the human world."
The purple-haired and purple-eyed goddess of wisdom suddenly spoke.
"Nor do humans need to be saved by anyone. Since they no longer coexist with God, the only one who can save humanity is humanity itself. ”
“... Oh? Athena, wouldn't it be good to let the master of the heavenly vault cleanse the earth and return everything to the beginning? ”
The gloomy voice paused for a few seconds before slowly speaking.
Obviously, Charon, the former god of the Styx and now the lord of the underworld, knew from the beginning what Athena's purpose was.
"There is no point in going back in time."
There seemed to be some kind of inexplicable glimmer in Athena's eyes.
Her delicate and cold voice seemed to speak without any emotion.
"The past has been buried, be it the Immortal, the Ancient, the Titan, the Myth.... Times are always moving forward. The pursuit of the past, since the past is already the past, then it means that the past is a failure. Looking for an era of failure? In my opinion, that is just another kind of hubris, ignorance, and waste of time moving forward. ”
“... O beautiful goddess of wisdom, is that your answer? ”
The gloomy voice seemed to be a little surprised, and it seemed to be thinking, and it was a little gloomy.
Then, the owner of the voice seemed to fall into silence.
Chen Sheng couldn't help but glance at Athena twice, and seemed to have some new understanding of her.
"I'll keep an eye on Tartarus' situation, but there are some things that you need to do on your own."
After dozens of breaths, this gloomy voice sounded in the ears of the two again.
"There are some other wild gods who have been thrown into the underworld have been awakened by the master of the heavenly dome, they have opened up at least seven more gaps between the two realms that connect the current world, and sent the creatures of the underworld outside, I will give you relative coordinates, you can solve them yourself."
He seems to have been persuaded by Athena.
However, he didn't leave directly.
"Hehe, visitor from another world, you are very special."
As soon as the conversation changed, Charon seemed to be eyeing Chen Sheng.
"A few days ago, the power that shook the present world and the underworld dimension came from you, right?"
The corners of Chen Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, although he couldn't see Charon's true body, but there was no discoloration on his face, and after thinking for two seconds, he nodded slowly.
"Hmm... I have to say that it is a great force, and I can still vaguely feel some remnants of that power in you. But, what makes me wonder why He would choose you as an ordinary-looking one... Mankind? ”
Charon seemed to be looking at Chen Sheng, trying to see him through.
“............”
Chen Sheng didn't answer the current Lord of the Underworld, because in fact, even he couldn't say why the transcendent Infinity Stones would choose him.
"The world, perhaps, will eventually become more and more interesting, as Athena said..."
Although Chen Sheng didn't answer Charon, he didn't seem to care, but the gloomy and sympathetic voice suddenly brought a little meaningful smile, and finally, it slowly disappeared.
A gray-white flame suddenly appeared in front of Athena and Chen Sheng, and then turned into two different streamers, which entered Athena's and Chen Sheng's foreheads respectively.
In an instant, some information appeared out of thin air in the minds of the two.
That's where some of the coordinates of the gap between the underworld and the present world are located.
"Charon is gone."
Seeing that everything in front of her had returned to complete dead silence, Athena glanced at the silent Chen Sheng and spoke.
"We can go back."
