Chapter 392: A Peaceful Life
Following Karn's guidance, the two walked through the restored area of the castle, past the ancient gates, and into the depths of the castle. Behind the gate is a wide stone corridor with oil lamps hanging from the walls, the faint light casting faint shadows on the ancient walls.
As the two go deeper, they pass through room to room, and in this castle, there is a lot of mystery and tranquility, as if time is frozen here.
The two eventually came to the heart of the castle, a large and tall hall. The atmosphere of the hall is solemn and luxurious, with huge chandeliers hanging high from the ceiling, exuding a warm and soft glow. The floor is covered with ornate carpets with beautiful patterns.
The walls are adorned with old paintings, each of which is a masterpiece of meticulous painting, showing heroic deeds or scenes of ancient wars. The characters in the painting have vivid expressions.
The side of the hall is lined with beautifully carved furniture, which seems to have been used to receive dignitaries and important guests. A large stone fireplace burns with firewood and emits a faint woody scent.
At the end of the hall, statues stand representing the illustrious history of the castle's owner. The eyes of these statues seem to be able to cut through time, watching everyone who enters the hall.
The two walked through the hall to an ancient door at the end of the hall.
As the door slowly opened, a faint mechanical sound came from the ceiling. With a sound, a giant mechanical spider slowly descended from the ceiling. The lower body of this mechanical spider is full of mechanics, with a silver glow, and it looks like it is made of sophisticated and high-tech machinery.
The upper body of the mechanical spider is a human wearing a dense metal helmet, and his eyes reveal a deep light, and it is impossible to see the specific expression.
The entire helmet is designed to be so tightly designed that there are no flaws, so that it is impossible to get a glimpse of the true face of the cobweb master.
The cobweb master slowly lifted his helmet, and through the dark lenses, a pair of deep eyes reflected the vision of the white night. His countenance was illegible, obscured by darkness and mechanical devices, but the glint in those eyes was full of wisdom and contemplation.
"Mr. White Night, we are honored to have you here." The voice of the webmaster came from the helmet, low and powerful, with a hint of magnetism.
Bai Ye smiled slightly and saluted the Spider Web Master: "Spider Web Master, you have worked hard. I heard that you have made some preparations for me, but I don't know what the arrangements are? ”
The Webmaster nodded, his tone revealing a sense of detachment and sagacity, "Yes, Mr. White Night. We've got everything in place, and you're going to have a key role to play in the multiverse. ”
"Really?"
White Night smiled noncommittally, staring sharply at the Cobweb Master, and asked, "Tell me, Cobweb Master, how did you manage Karn to transform from an evil heir family member to the way he is in in just a few days?" ”
The Web Master nodded slowly, and he raised his hand and tapped his helmet, pondering how to explain.
Then, his voice rang out again: "Karn was once a soul lost in revenge and hatred. I didn't change his nature, but I guided him to realize the truth in his heart. In the process of searching for the truth, he was exposed to information that transcended the individual and the structure of the universe, and this experience changed his cognition. ”
The Web Master paused, waiting for White Night's reaction. Bai Ye nodded slightly, motioning for him to continue.
"In the depths of his heart, Karn had always longed to find a path to truth and peace. I just helped him find the path and made him understand that hatred and revenge are not the only options. His conversion was based on an inner awakening, not an external compulsion. ”
Bai Ye listened to the cobweb master's explanation, and his brows furrowed slightly. He could feel the truth, and at the same time, he knew that such an awakening would not happen overnight.
However, he was still curious about the abilities and methods of the Cobweb Master.
Seeing this, the spider web master raised his hands as if weaving an invisible web in the void.
His gestures are light and skillful, as if he is weaving some mysterious power. After doing this series of movements, he slowly lowered his hands, and in the face of Bai Ye's question, he shook his head slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.
"It's not a change I've forced on him, it's a deep soul conversation. What I have in my possession is a power that transcends the physical realm, that reaches into the depths of the soul and leads people to the truth. You can think of it as a supernatural telepathy, different from conventional interventions. ”
His voice echoed through the hall, filled with an atmosphere of distantness and mystery. Bai Ye was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, indicating his understanding of the Cobweb's explanation.
"The power is truly impressive. I'm not here just to learn about that, though. White Night's eyes sharpened, and he said to the Cobweb Master, "I need your help to assist me in an important task. ”
The webmaster stood there silently, not showing much emotion. He asked, "Please, what do you need me to do?" ”
White Night casts his gaze into the distance, and through the walls of the castle, he sees the wider universe. His voice was decisive:
"I need your help to break the shackles of the multiverse and stop an impending cataclysm."
Karn picked up a glass of red wine, intending to taste it, but when he heard the meaningful words in the white night's words, he suddenly stopped what he was doing, his brow furrowed slightly. A wave of uneasiness welled up in his heart, and he looked directly at Bai Ye and asked, "Bai Ye, what do you mean by the Great Tribulation?" Why is the shackles of the multiverse involved? ”
Bai Ye didn't answer immediately, his eyes wandered through the glorious decoration of the hall, as if searching for an answer. Karn waited nervously and expectantly, but the silence of the white night widened an impassable distance.
After a few moments, White Night finally turned his gaze back to Karn, and then said, "This is an impending cosmic catastrophe involving the destruction of countless worlds. I need to find a specific force, a force that can subvert the existing rules and reshape the order of the universe. ”
Karn's expression became more solemn, and he could feel the determination and urgency in White Night's words. The red wine glass trembled slightly in his hand, carrying the waves in his heart.
"This power is not something that can be obtained by conventional means, but requires traveling through the framework of the multiverse to explore deeper mysteries." The voice of the white night echoed in the hall, and every word was heavy, like a boulder pressing on people's hearts.
Karn swallowed silently, his knowledge of the world was still limited, however, White Night's words made him feel a pressure and unknown that he had never felt before.
He had finally lived the peaceful life he had always dreamed of, and now he was going to go back to the days he had lived before.
