Ultimate creatures, in fact, don't need sleep.

Su Shu fought with all kinds of demonic beasts in the cave for seven days and seven nights, and snuggled with the witch day and night in his spare time, never closing his eyelids.

However, there is now an extra Artoria in the team.

In the gloomy night, it was not suitable to hurry, so Su Shu made an appointment with her to find her separated brother the next day.

In the tent set up in the forest, the blonde girl had sunk into a peaceful sleep, and there was a slight trace of crystal saliva on the side of her mouth.

He was still muttering from time to time, "Alvin-senpai...... Eat well......" and so on.

Tut...... What are you eating in this dream? Are you eating me?

I don't know what kind of beautiful dreams Artoria is having, and her nerves are really big...... Appears unsuspecting.

It's only been three hours since you've known each other, and you've let your guard down, Artoria, what if I'm a very bad person, what are you going to do?

Sleeping like this, I'm afraid I won't wake up if I am stripped naked and sold.

Su Shu shook his head with a slight smile and withdrew his gaze.

Not far beyond the girl's dream.

Sitting on the branches of the giant trees in the forest, the dark night at this moment is the warm time for the boy and his own witch.

Pillowing the soft knee pillow of the witch's thigh, Su Shu could feel that he was gradually penetrating into Morgan's heart.

Lifting her veil tonight, he was ready to be alienated.

Outside, according to Su Shu's understanding of the demon woman: Morgan will probably be ashamed, will avoid, will run away, and will not dare to respond positively.

Because she has been alienated since she was a child, she can't get used to too intimate interactions, and it's normal.

But, it doesn't matter.

Because of Su Shu, she will persevere and persevere in peeling off her heart layer by layer.

However, in the moonlight at night......

The witch hugged her, and everything came naturally, so naturally.

The four words "I need you" are unreserved and sincere catharsis, and Su Shu originally thought that the time when he could say it would be later.

In the rippling waters of the lake.

The witch's somewhat cold palm took the initiative to stick to the young man's back - the witch was actually jealous, and her ethereal words were full of resentment.

The relationship progressed and became faster.

Why...... Su Shu sighed and realized that it seemed to be an assist from Artoria's intrusion.

He could tell—Morgan didn't like Artoria, he didn't like it.

Because...... The other party is her "sister".

King Yusher was very old.

The next throne of the Eternal Golden Dynasty should have been succeeded by Morgan, who was his concubine.

She will be the noble Queen of Avalon, but she has been banished by Uther for awakening the magical properties of the curse.

Even now Uther has been driven out of votigeng as a lost dog, but he has never wanted to recognize Morgan's daughter.

Opposite.

King Uther used his golden heart, with the help of the sage Merlin, to create a monster like Artoria in a vain attempt to take back the country.

This made the witch angry and jealous, and her father's contempt and betrayal dealt her a heavy blow—in part, it was the direct cause of the birth of the ultimate creature.

Good! Ok, good, good! You'd rather make a man-made weapon, a man-made perfect king, and claim the legitimacy of the kingdom to such an inhuman monster than leave a favor for your daughter.

Then I'll go and help Vantigen! Craft a weapon that's even more perfect than Artoria! Break your creations hard and stomp them underfoot!

With this in mind, Morgan went to Vottigan's castle.

And she's ...... now I've already started to regret it.

Even if she is reprimanded as an ominous witch, she is not Yusher after all, and she is not the cold-blooded and ruthless king of gold who is like a heartless heartless.

"I said it didn't matter."

Gently pinched the palm of his own witch and pressed it against his cheek.

The silver-haired young man closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying such an intimate warmth, and his voice was smooth and soft.

"It's just, I still want to ask you-

"What exactly is the Supreme Will?"

As a platinum player who has unlocked all Black Ring achievement medals and played more than 300 hours.

Su Shu had never seen the word "supreme will" in the game.

He was a little confused, where did the setting come from?

Su Shu looked through the classics of the royal city in a year, but did not find any answers.

Interesting, did you play a fake "Circle of Darkness"?

He lamented that he often skipped, so it was very troublesome to make up classes now, after all, Su Shu didn't watch all the plots except for his wife's stickers.

The black ring still has a skip function, so as not to force non-plot party players to enjoy the assembly line there.

As a souls-based game.

Just like the style of the old thief's previous works "Ancient Soul", "Shadow Wolf" and "Curse of the Blood Moon", the plot of the Black Ring is also fragmented and obscure.

The stories of the peeps in the cup are often hidden in the side lines of the game, hidden in the text descriptions of weapons and props.

Conversations with NPCs are all about it: fire, suffering, and the devastation of the land......

Speaking with high emotional intelligence: fragmented narratives.

Say it with low emotional intelligence: The Riddler get out!

Therefore, except for the ringalist who specializes in setting, everyone generally directly deducts the space and skips it in fast forward for the Riddler plot of the Black Ring.

I don't know who I am, where I am, I just know I'm going to kill!

And, stick it with my fireproof female wife!

Therefore, "supreme will", such a very informative word, will make Su Shu feel quite concerned.

That sounds like a great thing.

Su Shu was particularly impressed - because Fu Tigeng had emphasized that he wanted to defeat the Supreme Will?

You must know that the demon dragon Fu Ti Geng himself is the strongest hidden boss in the black ring so far, and the resurrection mechanism of the seven stages torments countless players.

Even in today's golden age, he is undeservedly invincible.

So......

The world is invincible, and the enemy is in the sky?

And the masters!

Facing Su Shu's question.

Morgan just sighed faintly, and his beautiful blue eyes revealed unspeakable helplessness and bitterness.

was originally disturbed by Artoria when she was flirting, but Alvin fed her food, accompanied her to practice swords, and even invited her to take a bath!

These interactions have already caused the witch who was secretly peeping to bite her lip.

On this big night, I finally took my own Alvin back, tasted him vigorously in the lake, and now I still sleep in my arms.

And his annoying sister can only reminisce in dreams, and the thought of this makes Morgan quite happy with the fact that he is now guilty.

As a result, it's hard to avoid answering such tricky questions now......

"I, I don't know if it's true or not, but ...... This is a secret that Votiggen himself told me. ”

Since she couldn't hide it, the witch bit her lip for a while, but decided to let go.

"You should, you've already finished reading the founding legend of the Eternal Golden Dynasty, Alvin."

"Hmm." Su Shu nodded lightly.

Morgan's gaze slowly looked in the direction of the royal city, and looked at the golden sacred tree that covered the sky.

"The seeds of the Golden Tree, originally from meteors outside the realm, with a brilliant light that streaked across the sky, brought the Golden Law to this Avalon, and also brought the immortal blessing of Desress.

"The glory of the Golden Tree spreads down and makes all the creatures of this land flourish, and the Immortal Divine Grace bathes the whole of Avalon......"

Morgan's soft voice, as if with a certain dusty sense of simplicity, recounts all the ancient things recorded in the classics.

"So, what's wrong with that?

"Everyone on Avalon should know this legend.

"People tend to create images that are as majestic as gods in order to elevate their racial origins."

Su Shu knew that many races would have their own creation legends.

For example, Pangu Kaitiandi in China, the World Tree and the Nine Realms in Northern Europe, the Brahma Creation in Hindu mythology, and the most famous ...... There is an allusion to the creation of the white dove, Jehovah.

In fact, these myths and legends are to a large extent to gild the source of their own culture, highlighting the legitimacy of being ordered by heaven and living forever.

To this, the witch just asked softly.

"Alvin, you're so intelligent, have you ever wondered what is beyond Avalon?"

Hear this question.

Su Shu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Beyond Avalon?

Avalon's map, it's just too big.

At the age of two, he had never had the opportunity to walk to the borders of the island.

As for the game, there is an air wall, and if you get stuck out, you will fall directly into the void, and the word "dish" will appear.

However, in the poetry of the bards, it was a blessed island, and beyond Avalon, there was an endless ocean of mist.

"Yes, the sea...... Is it? ”

"No, I don't mean the island, Alvin, but the world."

...... World.

Su Shu frowned and replied tentatively.

"Beyond the world, is it still the world?"

"I can't know for sure, but there may be a world beyond this independent Avalon that we haven't yet explored."

The witch shook her head, her voice blank.

"Votigon told me that the legend of the Golden Tree is not a legend, but a historical fact.

"The seeds of the Golden Tree really come from outside our world.

We have no way of knowing the image or appearance of the being who left the seed of the golden tree, so we can only vaguely call it the "supreme will."

"The Golden Tree is not a blessing, but a nourishment.

"The so-called Eternal Golden Queen is nothing more than a puppet chosen by the Supreme Will.

"The supreme will casts the seeds of the Golden Tree from the sky, and Avalon gradually prospered and reached its peak golden age.

"However, gifts often come at a cost.

—Today...... The costs are already being felt. ”

Su Shu's brows furrowed more and more when he heard this, it turned out that the top of Avalon's head was actually shrouded in such a god-like existence.

So why can't you feel a sense of supreme will in the main story of the Black Ring?

And ...... "price".

"—at the cost of ...... "Crimson Corruption"?"

Su Shu was keenly aware of the connection between them.

"That's right, Crimson Corruption."

The witch sighed.

"The souls of those who die normally will return to the land of Avalon and feed back to the island, making Avalon more and more prosperous.

"It's definitely a good cycle.

"And yet...... The souls of those who die in the Crimson Corrupt will be absorbed by the roots of the Golden Tree—it is absorbing the nutrients of the entire Avalon, transmitting it beyond the heavens through its connection to the Blood Moon.

"Avalon, it's withering.

"So, the golden tree also half-decayed.

"After the island is completely drained, the Golden Tree will also wither completely, because it has completed its harvesting mission.

Does this situation remind you of any similar situation? Alvin. ”

Face this problem.

Su Shu was silent for a moment, and then slowly spit out a word.

"Captivity."

"Hmm...... Captivity. ”

The witch lowered her dark blue eyes.

"Our seemingly prosperous Avalon is nothing more than a cage in captivity of the Supreme Will."

Such a truth is indeed extremely shocking.

The silver-haired young man raised his eyes and looked at the golden holy tree in the distance, although Fu Tigeng's statement was not known to be true or false, but Su Shu already believed it a little.

Because, the logic works.

Votigan tried in vain to cultivate a new sacred tree.

It is not a sacred tree belonging to the Supreme Will, but a sacred tree belonging to Avalon itself.

He tried in vain to use his own law to reshape and protect the land from the manipulation of the supreme will.

Did Voltigen succeed?

No...... Judging by the storyline of the Black Ring, he undoubtedly failed.

Halfway through, he didn't know what had happened, and Avalon fell into the Dark Ages.

The failure of Votigen's cultivation of the sacred tree, the failure of Artoria's guardian of the Golden Age, and the supreme will are even more absent in the main story......

What really happened to the gods of the Black Ring?

"In that case, why didn't my father make the truth public."

Su Shu found Huadian in the middle of the narrative.

"There shouldn't be anyone in Avalone who likes to be kept as a captive animal.

"If the truth is made public, everyone conspires to do this, and maybe a solution can be found."

"In fact...... Yuser had known the truth for a long time, otherwise how would Vantigen have started a rebellion. ”

The pupils of the silver-haired teenager are constricted.

In the witch's reluctance, Su Shu learned about the silent and cruel cage predicament.

In today's golden age, the longer the gods with the blood of the demigods live, the more likely it is that their bodies will erupt into scarlet corruption and degenerate into frenzied flesh and blood.

This is a curse that has been sown by the Golden Law from the very beginning and is hidden in the blessings.

Now the harvest of the Supreme Will has begun, but it is an extremely long process, at least for hundreds of years.

Avalon, eventually, will usher in the decline of all things, but the people living on the island can at least welcome a peaceful death.

Uther accepted the ending.

Because, as the king of gold with extreme sanity, Uther understands very deeply that the supreme will cannot be defeated.

The supreme will is equivalent to Avalon's father.

The seed of the golden tree that He threw in his hand has given the entire Avalonian Brilliant Gods, and now that it is harvest season, how can he resist such a magnificent existence?

Can cattle and horses in captivity rebel against the farmer?

You can try, but you will inevitably face the butcher's knife that will come sooner.

Even if you can resist, the heavy price is better than choosing to accept it - isn't it good to be served with good food and drink and wait peacefully to be slaughtered?

So, Uther accepted.

However, Votigen did not accept it.

As a father's supreme will, now the entire Avalon is going to die, and as the heir, Votigen, decides to kill his father to survive.

In order not to let the roots of the golden tree continue to absorb the souls of the people of the island.

There is a solution that can be called tyrannical.

That is ...... "killing".

"...... to start a war"

Su Shu sighed and lowered his eyelids.

That's right, as long as you die in the war...... Becoming a dead man, of course, there will be no more outbreaks of Crimson Corruption.

It is equivalent to directly suddening people before the zombie virus infects the population.

It's cruel, but it's ...... Highly efficient.

"Votigon reshapes the sacred tree, and it takes the blood of the gods of Avalon to forge the land into a refining array, and he is turning this entire island into a battlefield for the crusade against the will of heaven."

The witch's voice was as ethereal as the wind.

"Therefore, he launched a rebellion against the usurpation of the throne, and a chaotic war was waged between these nations."

Su Shu had already thoroughly understood why Fu Tigeng did not announce the truth about the supreme will captivity.

Truly...... It's useless to say it, it doesn't make sense, it just causes panic.

If there is an iron house, which has no windows and cannot be destroyed, and there are many sleeping people in it, who will soon suffocate to death, but from slumber to death, they do not feel the sorrow of death.

Do you think you are worthy of the cry of the more sober men, and the irremediable suffering of this unfortunate few?

However...... Since a few people have risen, if more can be awakened, you cannot say that there is no hope of destroying this iron house.

...... It's called "hope."

Su Shu, who learned the truth, was surprised to find out.

In my heart, I actually agreed with Fu Tigeng's approach very much.

Perhaps there is a father and there is a son, and he, like Votiggen, is not a man who will compromise with the will of Providence.

It's just that...... Reasonableness and stance agreed, but Su Shu had to start struggling immediately, because he himself was the sacrifice.

Yu Se is the one who pretends to be asleep, Fu Tigen is the one who is sober, Su Shu has no intention of judging the right and wrong of the two sides, he only hopes to live well with Morgan.

Votigon wanted to use the death of most people to earn a survival for a small number of people, so that Avalon could usher in a free future.

As long as Avalon's population can be continued, he doesn't care who survives.

However.

Who wants to be the "majority"?

Although it is for the continuation of Avalon, it is impossible for everyone to have such a generous sacrifice determination, everyone is not a saint, and the affairs of later generations will be left to later generations.

"You are the vessel of Vötigen, Alvin, and after he has reshaped the sacred tree, he will make you a sacrifice and combine with the new sacred tree, and then have a long life.

"And he himself will be transformed into a new law that envelops Avalon, sublimated into Avalon's providence."

Said so softly.

Morgan recalled his astonishment and horror when he heard such a secret.

However, after calming down at that time, she made her choice extremely decisively.

- That is: to assist Votigen.

After all, she is a witch, and it is not in her style to succumb to the will of heaven or something.

Unfortunately, Morgan now regrets it...... Regret for Alvin's fate.

She believes that this is undoubtedly her own fault.

"So, at least until a new sacred tree is planted, you don't need to worry about Vantigen's seizure."

"The process...... How long does it take? ”

"I don't know, but Votigen has been planning for a full ten years, and you don't have much time left, Alvin."

The witch shook her head bitterly, caressing the boy's cheek softly, and felt a growing sense of guilt.

"It's okay...... I'm just a good container made by my father. ”

In Morgan's somewhat stunned expression, the silver-haired boy smiled slowly.

"As long as I'm better than my father.

"My father, then, is a container for me."

The silver-haired young man's gaze glanced at Artoria, who was sleeping soundly in the tent.

The Ritual of Choosing the King aims to select the King of Gold who can crusade against Fu Tigen......

Something interesting is about to happen.

That one will lead the Knights of the Sacred Tree in a crusade against the Golden King of the Demon Dragon Vantigen.

His name should be "Alvin Desres".

Releasing me is about to become the one thing you should regret the most, Vantigen.

Old thing, give me gold coins!
