Chapter 62: The Transformation of the World
Hot and dry July
The ground is very dry due to the lack of moisture and heat, and the plants planted in the fields are also a little wilted due to the lack of water, and even pedestrians drag their tired bodies home.
Because it is located in the Lombardy plain, the weather in this area is typical of the Mediterranean climate. The city of Milan naturally has the characteristics of dry and rainy summer, cold and rainy winter.
Although the sun outside is very scorching, the temperature in the shade and indoors is relatively low, and people at this time mostly stay at home to avoid the heat. The castle, which usually looks empty and gloomy, has become an excellent place to escape the heat in this kind of summer.
Through a windowsill, you can see a messy room.
The special paper, which was covered with various symbols, was being discarded on the ground at random, as if it were the first draft of an incomplete piece, and a special magic could be vaguely felt from these scrolls.
And sitting in the middle of this pile of papers is a teenager.
In front of him were three pieces of paper engraved with various spells, and the powerful mana contained on them made the air a little blurred.
The latest piece of paper, with countless mysterious words faintly engraved on it, is no longer a special text that ordinary human knowledge can bear, but a special spirit that is exclusive to the gods and can only be read by magicians.
"Even without the help of the concubine, this 'human-god contract' will be studied by you yourself, right?" a light voice sounded from in front of the young man, and it seemed that he was marveling at something between his words.
"I don't have the time to go on, and the best way to solve it is to be able to solve it. The young man looked at the paper engraved with mysterious runes in his hand and muttered distractedly.
"But the concubine is also very curious about the content of this...... What you're collecting should have a very long history...... There are also cultural relics that are nearly 10,000 years old...... Although you have deduced this from above, are you sure that this thing is real?", the girl's questioning voice sounded.
"Why can't it be true? I spent six years on this, overturning and rewriting it again and again, and finally I was able to establish this. And you should be able to feel the ancient power on it, right?", the boy said, rubbing his brow, a little tired.
"Behind the birth of the myth is itself an exhibition of human history. Human beings were initially afraid of the violent forces of nature, because they could not control or interfere with the forces of nature, and they had to pray that nature would calm their anger in a time when the environment was very prone to mutation. So human beings at that time wrote stories one after another, preaching the power of nature. Kindness...... Actually, I'm curious that there are other factors behind this, because this kind of harnessing the power of human faith is not something that ordinary people can touch,......" the boy unfolded the thin paper in his hand and said again.
And when human beliefs gradually accumulate, certain forces of nature are also reconciled, which is to interfere with natural forces with human will. Later, an unknown being, who communicated the will of man and the will of nature, finally concluded this contract. ”
The concubine was a little curious as to why he did this. The girl smiled slightly, focusing her eyes on the piece of paper in front of her, and saw the words below again.
This is the contract between man and nature, and the gods exist as an intermediate product of this contract. Human beings fear and believe in the power of nature, and use myths to restrain the power of nature. The forces of nature gradually evolve under the influence of constraints, and finally form their own consciousness. The boy slowly explained the above content.
"So the oldest history of your gods is only the last 10,000 years. ", the boy said.
"Ten thousand years...... That's a lot for humans, but it's just a dream for a concubine. The goddess with a long silver color seems to be piecing together the fragments of memories in her mind, but she can't read the complete message.
She only remembered the muddy things in the past, and there were still mythological memories in her mind, but she was a little confused, and she didn't know who she really was, was it the natural spirit with the nature of darkness and earth, or was it gradually transformed into a trinity goddess? The open-mindedness of the gods finally made her stop thinking about this kind of question and continue to read.
But the original Being, who had set up the contract, also encountered the phenomenon of the collapse of the myth, so he created the ritual of the reincarnation of the god-killer, using the entire heaven and earth as a place of sacrifice and using the gods as sacrifices. In the end, what is achieved is the existence of the transcendent human limit, the king of the king's landing, that is, the god-killer. ", the boy said with an inexplicable smile.
"Then, you and other demon kings should also have a history of nearly 10,000 years...... Wrong...... The collapse of faith should be rare, and there should have been no gods breaking the prison of faith when this contract was first established. ", the girl said again.
The boy was silent for a moment, he could decipher far more than the goddess in front of him.
The God Killer is indeed used as a special tool to eliminate the disobedient gods, but once there are too many such tools, it will also cause a complete collapse of the human social system, so in the process of the reincarnation of the God Killer, they have also been burdened with a curse.
Those who once killed the gods and bathed in the blood of the gods will be endlessly plunged into battles and killings, this is the fate of the godslayer, the fate of fighting the gods to the death, and the fierce warriors will fall into a desperate struggle for various reasons, and finally suffer death.
This is the reason why so many godkillers have died in battle, and it is also the root of the godkillers' inexplicable preference for fighting after killing gods. Of course, this curse had been found and extracted by Tatsu, and now he was being restrained, unable to disturb his mind any longer. But in fact, after his soul grew stronger, this curse actually didn't have much effect.
And according to Chen's judgment, the martial arts king in Jiangnan, Luo Hao, should have appeared early, after all, she was also a heroine with unparalleled martial arts and magic, and she should also be very keen about this aspect of things. As for the one in the Balkans, he could only guess that he relied on his extraordinary beastly intuition to avoid various crises, just as the demon king did not fight with him to the death, relying on his extraordinary intuition to avoid the death caused by the curse.
Of course, this particular turn of events was apparently also taken into account by the person who created the deed. Because with the gradual collapse of mythology, there will be more and more gods of disobedience, and there will be more and more corresponding godslayers, and eventually there will always be some people who are not affected by the curse and are difficult to control. And what will appear at this time is the existence of a purifier like a purifier. For example, the Last King, who is sleeping, Tatsumi judges that he should be the number one person to carry out this order.
"The hard part is to solve the problem of this contract...... The current situation is also mentioned above...... He said that if he broke this contract, he could change the situation...... "The boy muttered to himself.
"After breaking the contract...... We should be able to come back completely. Athena seemed to understand the last part of the contract and said.
"Well, it's not just you, but the power seized by the godslayer should also be gone...... Overall, this is very good for the world......," the boy thought silently in his heart.
"It's really boring...... After seeing the root of the concubine's body, I felt a little ridiculous...... A qiē is nothing more than a dream. Athena seemed a little relieved, but said helplessly.
Until now, Tatsuya has finally understood the reason why he can't leave. At the beginning, the will of the plane was blocked, and it was probably to borrow his own power to break the contract. The plane laws that prevented him from crossing in the first place also carried such information, and he didn't understand it until he had fully cultivated the third order.
And when he tried to decipher these contracts, he could also feel the assistance of the laws of the plane, otherwise he would not have been able to decipher this kind of secret in only six years.
"But...... If I had been a fourth-order ...... I guess I'll be able to read it soon...... You don't have to be trapped for ten years like you are now......", the young man sighed a little in his heart, and was a little distressed.
It is obviously unlikely that he can forcibly break this contract with his own strength, after all, his strength is still a notch behind, and he can only think of finding some special way to crack it.
"Huh...... It resonated with the breath of the concubine...... It seems that the power of some Mother Earth goddess has been awakened ......", Athena's slightly surprised words reached the boy's ears.
Tatsumi picked up a report again, this is the news that has just been passed on today, a temple hidden deep underground, a divine tool is gathering the magic power of earth and water.
"The dragon snake should be your dependent, right?", the young man asked for no reason.
"That's right, the dragon is indeed the subordinate of the concubine, and the last descendant of the virtuous snake is the arm of the concubine. ", the girl said a little seriously.
"The power of the dragon snake is the same as that of the earth...... And so it was. The boy nodded, playing with the jade in his hand a little.
"So...... Lily's business should be on the agenda...... If nothing else...... It should be the 'steel'......", the boy thought about something in his heart, and called Liliana, who was still training, to give a slight order.
"Brother, you said I should go to Napoli to find Teacher Diana?", the girl seemed a little surprised.
"Well, after all, you haven't seen her for a long time, and it's been a few years. By the way, where is it possible to appear the dependents of the dragon and snake, it is a little troublesome. The boy reminded him slightly, and handed over a glimmering jade.
"Maybe it will," the boy said, and then watched as the girl left.
"You ......", Athena, who was standing not far away, seemed to notice this, her pupils contracted slightly, and she stared at Chen for a long time.
And Chen, just standing in front of the window, looking at the distant and unknown sky.
(ps: Kind of filling in some holes?...... In addition, the author investigates whether you can choose...... Kindness...... Because we want to know where we are doing better, after all, our vision still has many limitations. Also, if you have any comments on our book, you can tell us more...... After all, it's almost over, and we want to sum it up...... )
