Chapter 157: Humans Are Mere Mortals (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Following behind Lin Xu and his party, Domoore was always a little apprehensive.
He didn't know if the church had found out about his escape.
Now about his wanted warrant, is it already at the police station?
No, in the eyes of the church, he is still a potential monster infected with madness and can get out of control at any time, so it will not be the police station that is tracking him, but the ascetics of the church.
Dormol shuddered at the thought of those who had dedicated themselves to the god Dul, who had taken the initiative to become contaminated with madness, suppressed madness by penance, and then used the power of madness to hunt mad ascetics.
Compared to his previous self, in Domol's eyes, those ascetics were the real madmen.
In addition to ascetics, there are actually many mysterious people in this world who actively infect madness, and then rely on their will to suppress madness and gain power with the help of madness.
In Domoore's eyes, Lin Xu and the others are obviously such mysterious people.
Otherwise, it is impossible to explain their apparent ability to transcend common sense.
For example, now, Lin Xu and the others took him to swagger open the door of the library and walked in.
However, the alarm device of the gate did not respond at all, and even the guards guarding the door watched as if they didn't see a few people, watching a few people walk in from under the noses of the guards.
But think about it, except for some scholars in this world, and the existence of the mysterious side, who would know so much about the existence of human beings.
"The materials about human beings are all in the basement of the library, where only people with sufficient permission can enter, but generally people with permission are not interested in these things, so few people usually go to read them." Entering the library, it was as if Domoore had gone home.
Familiar with the road, he took Lin Xu and his party to the basement.
Picked up the key hanging on the wall, opened the door of the basement, and walked in with Lin Xu and the others.
The dim light bulb was lit, and the wide basement appeared in front of Lin Xu and the others.
"I remember a book where it was written that 10,000 years ago when humans left for some reason, they left behind servants and creatures to protect the universe. It's just that because our ancestors were jealous of the power of the servants from humans, they launched a rebellion. Domore said as he rummaged through the rows of books.
It's just that he is too slow to be efficient after all.
"Are you sure the book is here?" Lin Xu asked.
"Of course, I haven't finished that book yet. It's just that at the time I wanted to study the question of why humans left, and that book was about the rebellion of our ancestors. You know, intelligent beings always like to escape reality, and I don't like to study why my ancestors rebelled, so I put the book down at that time. Domore explained.
But before he could continue, the rummaging hand stopped.
Because he saw an incredible sight, the entire basement of the books, as if controlled by countless hands, flew out of the shelves one by one, and were quickly flipped through in mid-air, as if there was some existence, reading so many books at the same time.
Domol looked at Lin Xu and the others, as if he wanted to confirm.
"You did this?"
"Look at it this way faster." Lin Xu nodded.
As she spoke, she had already controlled the nanobots and completed the flipping through all the books in the entire basement.
"Master, the book has been found, and at the same time, the book has been found with relevant records, which can be used as evidence to corroborate each other." Ying's voice sounded, and at the same time, a book returned to the shelf, but a few books floated in front of Lin Xu.
"Can you confirm what happened back then?" Lin Xu didn't go through those books, but asked directly.
"According to records, when humans left 10,000 years ago, they gave their servants an artifact." Glitter replied.
"Artifact?" Lin Xu was a little surprised.
"Yes, it's an artifact, that artifact has unrivaled power, and can even change the law, our ancestors once rebelled because they were jealous of the power of that artifact." Domore recalled what he had seen and followed along.
"Based on the description, I think it should be a high-dimensional item." Yingfu gave a more accurate answer.
"High-dimensional items? Those rebellious races started a rebellion because they were jealous of the power of high-dimensional items? But how did they rebel? This is also one thing that Lin Xu has always been puzzled about.
As the defenders of the human servants, plus the purges, they must be far stronger than those of the higher civilizations that launched the rebellion, and how did their rebellion succeed?
"The ancestors unleashed calamity." Domore said with a sigh.
"Yes, Mr. Domol's ancestors have opened the blockade of disordered filth, and at that time, the defenders of the human servant race were using the high-dimensional items left behind by humans to purify the disordered filth in the blockade, so that disordered filth degenerated into inert filth." Glitter replied.
"Then they're damned." Lin Xu frowned and sighed.
"yes, our ancestors really deserve to die." Domoore smiled wryly.
It can be said that so much madness in this world is caused by his ancestors, and Domol did not scold, he already gave face to his ancestors.
And Yingfu continued.
"At that time, the betrayers of the higher civilizations, because they were watching the high-dimensional items left by human beings, deliberately opened the gap to block the disordered filth, causing the disorderly filth that had been suppressed to spread back into the universe. As a result, the defenders could only detonate the high-dimensional item, instantly purifying all the disordered filth into inert filth, and the consequence was that the defenders themselves were almost wiped out in that disaster. ”
"Subsequently, the inert filth that was supposed to be gradually eliminated after purification became inert filth, but because the defender group was almost completely wiped out, there was no ability to destroy the inert filth in the future, and it began to spread naturally, and finally spread to the entire star field, affecting hundreds of light-years."
"What about the cleaners? What are they doing? Lin Xu asked.
"According to records, in addition to high-dimensional items, human beings are only servants and creations, and the maintainers are servants, so the cleaners are naturally just creations. Although they do not yet understand the mechanism of the cleaners, it is clear that they can only mechanically execute fixed procedures, and have no ability to correct them. Glowing continued.
"In this way, the reason why a maintainer is called a maintainer should also mean a maintainer." Lin Xu finally figured out what happened in this star field 10,000 years ago.
Although there are still many details to be added, the general direction, no surprise, should be like this.
"Maintainers and cleaners are supposed to complement each other, but because of the lack of maintainers, the cleaners begin to get out of control, and there is a purge every thousand years, which is the current speculation." Yingfu was just guessing.
"So, everything that has happened to this river system in the past tens of thousands of years is still the sin of those betrayers in the final analysis?" Nan Zhu directly threw the black cauldron on the higher civilization that had rebelled.
"Betrayers, defenders, purges." Lin Xu sighed a little, everything was just from jealousy ten thousand years ago.
Several people fell into deep thought for a while, only Mr. Domore next to him could understand what a few people were talking about at first, but later they gradually became a little confused.
"I know the cleaners, but what is a once-in-a-millennium cleansing? Also, weren't all the purges who left this world devoured by the outer god Yogzas? Domol wondered.
"The cleanser who left this world? Are there cleaners in this world too? Lin Xu was stunned, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain.
"Of course, every few decades or so, a group of warships will rise from the sea and rush into space, only each time they will be swallowed by Yugsas and become food for Yugsas. It is said that there is a warship production base for the cleaners at the bottom of the sea, and various countries have fought the idea of that warship production base countless times, but unfortunately with the degradation of civilization, countries have become more and more powerless to do anything to the base of the cleaners, and they can only watch, and every few decades, a group of warships rush to the universe to die. Domol sighed.
"The Cleaner's warship production base is actually here?" Lu Yao was stunned for a moment and said in surprise.
Although I had long guessed that there should be a warship production base in this star field shrouded in inert filth, I didn't expect it to be so coincidental that it would collide directly.
"The battleships we encountered before should not be produced here." Nan Zhu shook his head and said.
"That's right, because the warships produced here have been swallowed up by Yugsas. It seems that there is another production base. Lu Yao nodded and reacted.
"Actually, in addition to the cleaners, there are descendants of the defenders in our world." Domore thought for a moment and said tentatively.
"You found out?" Lin Xu looked at Domol and laughed, this is a smart person.
"Yes, you are mystical beings, but you don't know that the Cleaners try to rush into the universe every few decades. This is a big event that will cause a storm on the mysterious side every time, plus you always say that this world, not our world. "Domol can become a university professor, he is not stupid in itself, so many problems, if he can't see anything, it can only show that the people of this world have a collective IQ that is not good.
"So, are you?" Domour said, pointing to the sky with anticipation in his eyes.
"Yes." Lin Xu nodded and did not deny it.
At first, he didn't take the initiative to say his identity, because he was afraid that the other party would not believe it, and Lin Xu was too lazy to do boring things like self-identification.
But now that it has been guessed, Lin Xu is also too lazy to deny it.
"So, you are human servants? Like those maintainers from 10,000 years ago? Domor's voice trembled, but he could only guess that it was a servant.
"We're servants, but Lord Lin Xu isn't." Nan Zhu stretched out a finger and shook it and said.
So Domoor's feet went limp, and he almost sat on the ground.
However, he reacted immediately, leaning on the back of the chair next to him and standing up straight.
"You, you, please forgive me for my rudeness, Lord Lin Xu." Domoore saluted Lin Xu and said.
"Okay, don't be so polite, and you don't need to worry, we're not here to destroy this world." Lin Xu waved his hand at Domol and said.
"Whew, great, great." Domore held back his excitement, and he suddenly had the feeling that he had saved the world.
I don't know if all the countries in the world should jointly award themselves a big medal.
"I actually have some questions, though, and it would be nice if you could help answer them." Lin Xu continued.
"Of course, I know everything." Domol immediately straightened his mind.
"You just said that there are descendants of the defenders who are still there?" Lin Xu asked.
"Yes, the floating continent in the north is the descendants of the defenders who operate. They are affected by madness, they are smaller than us, so their civilization is also degraded at a slower rate, and they still retain some higher technology. Domol replied immediately.
"Does the degradation of your civilization have anything to do with madness?" Lin Xu was a little surprised.
He only knew that the many civilizations on this planet had all degraded.
But I really didn't expect that the degradation of these civilizations was also related to inert filth.
"Yes, the more you think, the closer you get to madness, so people are more and more afraid to think, and civilization is getting weaker and weaker. This may be the punishment of the universe for the betrayal of our ancestors 10,000 years ago, allowing us to gradually degenerate and watch civilization decline little by little. Domoore said bitterly.
At the same time, it can be regarded as a silent prayer.
We have been suffering for 10,000 years, and we are to blame, so please don't punish us any more.
Lin Xu was noncommittal and didn't say anything about it.
He now wanted to see the descendants of the defenders more than the descendants of the betrayers.
I don't know if the descendants of the defenders have a more detailed record of their ancestors.
Although some things from 10,000 years ago have been roughly guessed.
But Lin Xu still wanted to know in more detail, such as what the specific tasks were given to humans when they left the defenders 10,000 years ago.
Also, will the maintainers have a clue to the human ruins?
"Lord Lin Xu, where are you going next? The production base of the Washer battleship in the sea, or the floating continent in the north? Nan Candle asked.
"Let's go north first!" Lin Xu decided.
"But until then, we seem to be surrounded." Nan Zhu frowned.
At this time, her tail and ears were no longer hidden, and her ears were shaking from tail to tail, which made many moores think that Nan Zhu was going to become a monster.
But compared to the weird monsters, the tail and ears are pretty good, and they don't seem to be a prelude to madness.
Wait a minute, now is not the time to focus on this.
"Besieged? Could it be that I escaped and was discovered? Is it someone from the police station, or an ascetic? Domol asked, pushing his fingers.
"It's a bunch of people in white robes." Lin Xu replied.
"It's over, it's an ascetic." Domoore's face turned pale in an instant.
"Are you going to stay, or do you want to come with us?" Lin Xu thought for a while and asked.
"I, can I come with you?" Domol was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"I wasn't going to take you with me, but you're going to be wanted by the church, and because we're not going to leave you alone. As for the complete elimination of the church, it is too troublesome, so it is better to take you for a ride. Lin Xu said lightly.
"Then please take me with you, please." It was as if Domol had walked around from hell, and his face was almost crying.
In this way, Domol followed Lin Xu and the others out of the library.
As soon as he walked out of the gate, he was blocked by several white-robed ascetics at the gate.
"Dolmore, God Dur is merciful, and He is willing to help the lambs who have committed their own wrongs, but you have betrayed the mercy of the gods and fled from the church. Since you are not willing to accept help, you can only accept judgment. The ascetic at the head had no sorrow or joy in his voice, as if he had already eliminated all feelings.
"I didn't betray God Dur, I just, I just." Domore smiled wryly, but didn't know what to say.
Could it be that he is accompanying mankind to investigate the history of 10,000 years ago?
Not to mention that these ascetics won't believe it, even the previous ones won't believe it.
He now understands why Lin Xu didn't reveal his identity at the beginning, because it was too incredible.
Of course, Domol was even more afraid that he would tell Lin Xu's identity as a human being, and the few ascetics in front of him were saying something insulting to human beings.
After all, nothing is impossible for fanatics.
At that time, I am afraid that they will not be the only ones who will suffer, in case the whole world is implicated.
Forget it, Domol decided not to talk about it.
But who knows, Domol decided not to say anything, but the leader of the ascetics took the initiative to say something that frightened him.
"I know that many of you scholars regularly slander the gods, and even put a mortal race called humans ten thousand years ago above the great god Dur, and I have always advocated that you foolish so-called scholars who try to equate stupid mortals with gods should be purified. And now, it's time for your purification. When the ascetic leader said this, his tone, which had been emotionless, finally rose and fell a little, and even became more and more intense.
It seems that some scholars are extremely dissatisfied with the study of human behavior.
It's like many religions still refuse to admit evolution.
In some countries, even school textbooks do not allow the theory of evolution to be taught, how ridiculous.
"Do you know that humans exist, but you don't look down on them? Can I see why? Lin Xu asked curiously.
"It's just a mere mortal, who dares to try to compete with the gods, such a stupid existence, no wonder it has long disappeared into history. Even if I hadn't disappeared, I would have killed all these deceitful people in the name of God, thinking that they would be able to deceive future generations by making up a few books? "The leader of the ascetics seems to be excited when he talks about human beings, and his feelings that have long been absent have returned.
I don't know why I have such a big grudge against humans.
"Kill all the humans? How dare you think about it? Lin Xu's expression was strange.
It's like hearing a few ants talking about slaughtering and eating an elephant.
Lin Xu only felt funny, and he didn't feel offended at all.
Instead, it was Domoore, who was already so frightened that he was about to lose his footing.
He just wanted to beg the ascetic for now, and not to say any more.
If you keep talking, what if the person in front of you is unhappy and ruins the world directly?
"However, you haven't thought about it, is it possible to make up a book casually and deceive future generations, it is your god Dür?" Lin Xu asked curiously.
"Blasphemous, no wonder you mingle with the fugitives and kill them all." The leader of the ascetics was furious.
The rest of the ascetics, all of them with pale faces, rushed towards Lin Xu and the others.
It seems that no matter how weak the feelings are, once it comes to their gods, the feelings are all back, and even several times stronger.
I saw that the speed of the ascetics was very fast, far exceeding the speed that normal flesh and blood could achieve.
Lin Xu even saw that under the white robe of a certain ascetic, it was not only his legs that were running, but also a few tentacles assisting in running.
Lin Xu immediately understood.
This is the ascetic, using the will to suppress his madness.
And their will is to give everything to the god Dul.
Fanatical beliefs allow them to resist a certain level of madness.
But it also made the god Dur a taboo for them.
If anyone insults the gods, they will not die.
No wonder these ascetics began to go crazy as soon as they heard Lin Xu's words.
However, even if they had any reason, Lin Xu did not let them go.
Not to mention, there was another one next to Lin Xu, Mu Xiyue, who had been trying to suppress the fire since the leader of the ascetics just now began to slander human beings.
Now, as Lin Xu signaled, he could do it.
Mu Xiyue finally didn't have to endure it.
Straight forward with a sword.
Lin Xu frowned and reminded.
"Be careful, don't hurt ordinary people."
So Mu Xiyue noticed that there were many dwellings in the direction where the sword had just come out.
Mu Xiyue temporarily changed her sword momentum slightly, and deflected it slightly to the side.
But it didn't affect it at all, and the several white-robed ascetic cultivators who were close at hand were directly vaporized and evaporated by Mu Xiyue's sword qi before they came into contact with Lin Xu and the others.
However, because of the slight adjustment of Mu Xiyue's sword momentum, several ascetics, including the leader of the ascetics, escaped.
At the same time, this sword qi continued to move forward, and the rumble extended directly along the street.
What finally appeared before Domol's eyes was a street that had been completely turned upside down and looked like ruins.
Domol swallowed hard.
At the same time, the leader of the ascetics also seemed to come to his senses under this sword, and several white-robed ascetics were stunned in place.
looks like I don't know if I should continue to do it.
PS: Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket.
