Chapter 414: The Great Library of Glory
"And this is the infinite sea."
After Arka finished speaking, he closed his mouth and looked at the illusory dragon shadow above the throne.
"So it's been like this out there."
The dragon shadow on the throne said with a slight sigh.
"There are so many selfish outcasts, betrayers."
"What a glorious world it was in the age of my existence! The starry sky is ten thousand worlds, and our world is also the ultimate existence.
Mother of the World, who conceives all things, is so generous. β
"These traitors who have turned their backs on the Mother Goddess have ruined the world in selfishness. But instead of delusional remedies, he took advantage of this to leave. β
As he spoke, the dragon shadow shook his head.
Even if it was an illusory shadow, everyone could clearly feel his anger, his unwillingness, and his helplessness.
"Can you tell us why the war between the gods has reached such a fierce level?" Lucilia on Alka's shoulder asked directly.
"Of course." The Dragon King said directly.
"We have existed in this world for millions of years. Immortal, immortal, and unforgettable. But like that mortal, such a long collision anger is difficult to suppress and hatred is hard to extinguish. β
Hearing this, the Arka people actually roughly understood, which was not far from what they had known before.
It's just that his words have convinced Arka that what they knew before is not wrong.
As they thought, the gods had been around for too long.
But it can also be seen that these gods are not ruthless beings at all, they have their own emotions just like ordinary mortals.
Where there is emotion, there is a collision.
Hatred naturally comes, and the development of hatred will lead to more hatred colliding with each other.
The problem is that the power of these gods is too strong, and their power comes directly from the world and comes from the world's generous sharing.
When hatred reaches the point of immortality, collision arises.
The collision of a large number of powerful forces directly destroyed the entire world little by little.
At this time, Julia frowned and thought for a while and asked, "The power of the gods comes from the world, so why doesn't the world take it back at this time?" β
Wouldn't that prevent the problem from happening?
The dragon king raised his head slightly, as if reminiscing.
"A million years ago, there were wars like there were 10,000 years ago.
When the fierce collision of war is inevitable, all life is destroyed, and the mother of the world punishes all. β
"For tens of thousands of years, all the gods became mortals in the world, walking on their legs."
In other words, there were indeed cases in those days when the world regained its power.
"And 10,000 years ago, it was because of him."
As he spoke, the illusory dragon shadow raised its dragon claws and waved, and dots of crystal light gathered in the air, and then turned into four spheres of different colors that rotated around each other.
"Four points, mortals who ascended to the gods millions of years ago, eternally thirst for the knowledge and secrets of the world."
"He was also the most powerful of the mortals who had reached the top of the world a million years ago, and even above me in the end. Achieve the pinnacle position. β
"He is obsessed with knowledge and secrets, and no one knows where his knowledge reaches, and no one knows how deep his secrets are hidden."
With another wave of his hand, the four rotating spheres turned into a group of twos and twos.
"There is one of the most secret of his knowledge, which he keeps forever sealed.
That is to completely eat the power given by the world. β
A twinkling star is enveloped in darkness and then vanishes, representing the hidden knowledge.
He knew very well what an exaggerated catastrophe such knowledge would lead if it was disseminated, so he buried it forever.
As it should be, until he had a problem with himself. β
The spheres that were divided into two groups began to collide.
"His stealth stole his knowledge and spread the message of this most important knowledge."
With that, the dragon king's head looked up slightly at the crystal carvings on the ceiling dome.
"The gods who lived through the Fallen years were so eager for such knowledge that the first wars broke out.
The first person to master this knowledge is war, and he needs the raging fire of war so that he can perfectly devour the war, become the war itself, and will not be deprived of any existence. β
"Not even a mother."
As he spoke, the four spheres dispersed, condensing a tall and mighty humanoid figure.
In his hand was an exaggerated, large blade with a long chain tied to his half.
In the other hand, he also held an exaggerated giant axe.
The figure roared in rage, and flames of rage burned around it, followed by a war ensuing.
In a burst of firelight, the figure dissipated.
"This secret knowledge has been spread, and the disaster will not be stopped."
As he spoke, they became two groups again, and the two spheres began to collide.
"If he doesn't solve his own problems, more secretive and more likely to exacerbate the disaster will be secretly disseminated."
He ...... ruined themselves. β
The two spheres collided with each other, and then the four spheres disintegrated in an instant.
"He dispersed knowledge to all mortal beings."
The two spheres that collided spread into bits of starlight and began to spread throughout all life.
"This knowledge will become the last possibility."
The two spheres in the next group should be the one that represents the secret.
The two orbs were crushed by an illusory palm, and then thrown out.
"Secrets were thrown out, buried, destroyed.
There is no longer a way to peek into the deepest secrets, and secrets become secrets. β
With that, the dragon king swept away the phantom and continued to sit on the throne.
The crowd stood under the throne and reminisced about the story of this being who had personally experienced everything of that era.
The narration is so unreal.
So when the war attacked the city-state of Vastva, did it happen after the destruction of the four points or before the destruction of the four points?
However, I thought that it was only a few thousand years before the final world was broken, perhaps after the destruction of the four parts.
After all, the records of the city-state of Vastva clearly show that they were not inspired by the gods until the end.
Perhaps the war was fought to learn more from these believers.
"Is there any hope for a recovery in this world?" Julia asked muttered.
After all, those gods who left must have eaten a part of the world.
Otherwise, how could the gods have left in peace.
"We failed, but that doesn't mean we didn't do anything."
As he spoke, the dragon king waved his hand again, and more apparitions appeared.
They saw in the apparitions the figures of various races, dragons, giants, monsters, and humans.
They fight all sorts of scourges and colossal creatures.
Some died, some destroyed.
These great natural disasters and the shattered points of light after the death of living beings have returned to the world.
"This should be the treasure you are talking about now, and we will return him to the world in an attempt to slow down the decline of the world."
"Until the arrival of an uninvited guest."
As he spoke, the dragon king swayed again. Creatures resembling demons or demons come into action.
It swarms like sharks that smell blood.
Arka: They couldn't understand what the action on it meant, but these disgusting things must have done something.
Then the object representing the world shattered directly, in a huge explosion.
"These damn demons have destroyed the foundation of the world and reduced it to pieces. There were countless opportunities to stop it, but those damn betrayers simply ignored it.
They took advantage of this opportunity and still devoured a part of the world. β
"I also died in this battle."
The Dragon King said.
"And what is your current existence......" Arka couldn't help but ask.
Is it part of the soul? Or is it something else?
"It's a memory, it's my memory that remains on this throne."
Memory? Again, a completely different field.
"Then ......" Everyone wanted to ask something, but the Dragon King waved his hand slightly, and everyone's mouths were closed tightly, and they couldn't make a sound at all.
Then with a wave, everyone was directly bounced out.
The dragon king curled up on the throne like this, closing his eyes as if he was resting.
The crowd was ejected directly out of the hall, but they did not fly out directly, and the strange force carried them to the top of the castle.
It then fell through the cracks of a minaret.
"What are they playing?"
"Let's see who can fly into the hole accurately."
Several puppet girls on the ruins of other spires watched the scene and said.
Arka, on the other hand, fell straight through the gap in the minaret, and then fell into a huge structure.
The building should be at the rear of the hall.
After landing, the strange force that lifted them dissipated, and they smashed to the ground.
Rubbing their bodies, the group stood up and looked around.
"Oh my God......" Lucilia looked at the situation around her, and her whole body was completely stunned.
The situation here was even more shocking to her than what had just come from the hall.
It's an area that's on par with the hall just now, but it's packed to the brim.
Bookshelves covered the entire wall, and countless bookshelves floated in the sky.
There is a pillar of light in the center, and various kinds of this stone slab float on it.
Scrolls, books, recorded crystals, carved stone tablets, and even archaic bark are all stored here.
At the top, a huge wall-like book spreads out.
When everyone arrived, the book began to flip by itself.
With the rattling sound, all kinds of bookcase shelves began to move slowly.
The people who were imprisoned in place also seemed to feel that they were able to act.
"So he threw us here, meaning let's find it ourselves? Don't ask him anymore? Bororo asked, looking around him.
"I don't know, after all, he said that he is a body made of memories, and maybe he doesn't have as much energy as we think."
Arka said indifferently, looking at the glorious library with his eyes open.
What a horror of knowledge recorded here.
To be honest, he couldn't imagine it at all.
"He is worthy of being a scholar and recorder of the dragon clan." Lucilia muttered to herself.
The books here can be said to be the only ones they have seen in their lives, and they are existences that they can never finish reading in their lifetime.
"I don't know how long Ulullius' trial will take." Xia Daiti said.
Hearing this, Arka couldn't help but say, "To be honest, I'm expecting them to be able to ...... now Slow down. β
Everyone else nodded involuntarily.
If the place closes or collapses or something after they're done, it's really heart-wrenching and they can't breathe.
"I can stay here for the rest of my life." Lucilia said.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she patted her head again: "No, I've been in this kind of place all my life. I'm going to retract what I just said. β
She couldn't help but think about what happened before she died.
"There are so many books, how do we find the information we need? You can't just read it, just reading the title and reading the synopsis may take a month or even years. β
The exaggerated collection of books here made Juan Lu can't help but say.
"Let's spread it out and take a look, it's a little too big here."
Arka said and walked straight in one direction, and the rest of the people also walked in different directions.
There is also a zero-gravity environment where you can float, and you can jump up to get books from higher places with a simple jump.
Arka came to the center, where the pillar of light was.
Floating on top of it was the huge book that had just rattled.
In the pillar of light below, stone slabs floated one after another.
There is some kind of mysterious, incomprehensible text on the stone slab, carved with some kind of knowledge.
Arka narrowed slightly, then immediately closed his eyes.
As soon as I looked at my eyes, my eyes began to sour, and it was obvious that I should not explore the secrets here too much.
Although the words on the stone slab were not visible, Arka swooped down to the huge book floating above.
I looked at the book of the windless automatic, and it said that it was the table of contents.
And it's not just words, it's maps and drawings.
The book doesn't seem to have a page 1, and there's no last page to turn around like that.
Alka could feel a link of emotion searching, as if asking.
After thinking about it, Arka linked up.
The book began to rattle, and then a text appeared.
"The God of Four"
As you can see from the title, it seems to be introducing the story of the Four Quarters, or the historical record.
Exactly what Arka wanted to see.
Then the book shook again, turning into a hollowed-out map.
One of the bookshelves shook slightly, and according to the direction shown on the map above, Alka should be in the direction of the twelve-point direction at the top.
Hurriedly turned back to the crowd who were watching everywhere and said, "Come to this huge book, link his probing link, so that he can help you find the book you are looking for." β
As he spoke, he didn't wait for everyone, and the magic power sprayed slightly.
Pushing Arka in the direction he had just pointed out.
Although there are many floating bookshelves here, Alka can clearly find the one that has just appeared.
Fell in front of the bookshelf.
There is a nameplate at the top of the entire shelf.
It reads in the language of the white crocodile: "When the Darkness Fallsβthe first to ascend to the gods." β
This bookcase should record the era when the gods fell into mortals millions of years ago, as the Dragon King just said.
The record here is probably the first person to ascend to the gods.
Arka looked at the book in front of him.
Not all the languages he could understand, and to be honest, he didn't know most of them.
And 80% of the remaining half who can know are in the language of white crocodiles.
He is now incredibly glad that he had learned the language.
The rest of the intelligible ones are basically written in the language of the four gods, and although there seem to be some changes from some of the texts, they should be born from this ancient language.
In other words, the languages used in the areas under the control of the four gods should be the same as those used by their former gods, but after a long period of use, they have slightly changed and simplified.
Alka, who was able to read it, found several books that he might be interested in.
Alked, Usurpation Journey. γ
"Split into Two" and "Short Stories of Desire"
"Mother of Stones, Olly Lusping, Barefoot Madonna of Wheat." γ
and "The God of Four" that he just wanted to see
After taking the book out, Alka didn't immediately open it to check it, but reached over and took a book with a long name.
Alka thinks the book might be about the Virgin.
He was now temporarily more interested in the book than he had just wanted.
The written picture depicts a barefoot and graceful woman, with an ordinary appearance, walking among the ears of wheat.
Pretty much for sure.
Alka flipped it open and took a cursory look.
Really.
It is about the deeds of the Virgin in that era.
She should have been one of the first to return to the gods after the fall at that time.
