Chapter 905: Takamagahara
"Takamagahara's Gateway to Connection?" Lin Qiye was stunned for a moment, "You mean, behind that door...... Is it Takamagahara? ”
Merlin nodded slightly, "It's also our destination this time." ”
Between the rolling waves, the huge body of the whale slowly approached the giant gate above the sea.
Lin Qiye stood behind the whale, looking at the perspective of the giant gate, from level gaze, to looking up, and finally even if he looked up, he couldn't see the whole picture clearly, and the shock in his heart was incomprehensible.
This gate is really too big, and the body of the whale is already huge, but at this moment, in front of this leading gate, it is still as small as a toy, and as for the three Lin Qiye standing on its back, they are not even a speck of dust.
"Ready, we're going in." Merlin said suddenly.
Before Lin Qiye could react, the giant door in front of the whale silently opened a gap, and a dazzling white light shone out from behind the door, making Lin Qiye close his eyes uncontrollably.
A huge gravitational pull swept out from behind the door!
Buzz——!!
The ancient and heavy gate slowly opened, and under the terrifying gravity, Lin Qiye and Jia Lan's bodies instantly broke away from the back of the whale, like two grains of dust sucked away by a vacuum cleaner, and flew directly behind the gate.
Merlin, who was still standing motionless behind the turning whale, flashed a glimmer of light in his eyes, two magic arrays appeared in his palm, and the long blue rope quickly popped out, instantly binding Lin Qiye and Jia Lan's waists, pulling them back to his side.
Gravitational agitation, the sea churned, and the huge body of the whale automatically floated away from the sea and slowly flew behind the gate.
As the whale's form vanished, the gate gradually closed, and with a muffled sound, the portal closed tightly, fading into the sea as if it had never existed.
……
When Lin Qiye opened his eyes, between heaven and earth, there was only a piece of blood left.
The sea of blood rolled under the body of the whale, the remains of mutilated flesh and weapons surged between the waves from time to time, and the breeze full of blood smell penetrated Lin Qiye's nose, making him frown, his gaze swept around, and finally looked up at the sky, an incomparably huge scarlet blood moon, quietly hanging above the sky.
This red moon is more than ten times bigger than what Lin Qiye saw in the fishing village. It is like a red disc that covers the sky and the sun, embedded in the top of the mountains in the distance, and the light shines on every corner of this world.
Lin Qiye stared at the moon for a long time before he came back to his senses and looked at Merlin beside him in shock.
Merlin's expression was equally solemn.
"Lord Merlin...... Over here...... Where? Lin Qiye asked tentatively.
"Didn't you just say that? After passing through the Gate of Connection, this place is naturally Takamagahara. ”
"But isn't Takamagahara the land of the gods in Japan? How can this be? ”
Lin Qiye looked around in confusion, the blood-colored ocean, the broken land, the dead and strange towering buildings in the distance, and the palpitating red moon in the sky did not look like a place where the gods lived, but like hell.
Merlin looked up at the sky for a long time, then raised his right hand and pointed to the red moon.
"Because of it."
"Red Moon?" Lin Qiye paused for a moment and added, "It's still ...... The gods of Cthulhu? ”
"There's no essential difference between the two." Merlin replied, "The reason why the Red Moon exists is because the gods of Cthulhu broke through a corner of the seal, and after their own power poured out, they formed a regional pollution radiation, which was projected on the Earth from the moon, and when you look up at the moon from the polluted area, it is red." ”
The amount of information contained in this sentence was too great, and Lin Qiye was directly stunned.
When Lin Qiye was in the fishing village, he already knew that the gods of Cthulhu existed on the moon, and combined with Chen Yangrong's "will eventually return" and the identity of the Seraph's "gatekeeper", he also guessed that the reason why the gods of Cthulhu were on the moon was not his own intention, but some other factors.
Judging by Merlin's words, what kept Cthulhu on the moon was some kind of seal?
"The gods of Cthulhu were artificially sealed on the moon?" Lin Qiye asked in shock, "What kind of existence can seal a god system on the moon?" ”
"I don't know." Merlin shook his head, "That level of fate is not something I can spy on at all...... Moreover, it is not yet known whether [Cthulhu] can be considered a god system. ”
Hearing this, Lin Qiye was stunned.
"What do you mean?"
"The breath of the gods of Cthulhu is different from other gods on earth." Merlin mused and spoke, "Whether it's Bactrian mythology, Greek mythology, Egyptian mythology, or Hindu mythology...... All of them have a traceable history and cultural accumulation, with a heavy destiny.
But the things on the moon are different.
I ask you, do you know where the Cthulhu Mythos originated? ”
Lin Qiye shook his head blankly, "I don't know ......"
"Do you know when this god system appeared? Who proposed it? How did it spread? ”
Lin Qiye's brows furrowed slightly, he seriously lowered his head and thought for a long time, but still shook his head......
In his memory, there was not the slightest information about this.
"Don't you think it's strange?" Merlin said slowly, "A god system, without any background, no religion, no historical accumulation, suddenly appeared in everyone's cognition, as if it was forcibly stuffed into the human mind, and no one even doubted the authenticity of this god system, it just existed naturally......
'They'...... Is it really a myth? ”
Lin Qiye was stunned.
A lot of thoughts rolled through his mind, impacting his perception of reality.
"Yes...... If Cthulhu isn't a myth, then what are they? Lin Qiye asked blankly.
"I don't know." Merlin shook his head, "All of this is just my doubts and conjectures, and it's too far away for you to take it personally." ”
Lin Qiye took a deep breath, put aside those complicated thoughts, and was about to ask something more, when the whale under their feet suddenly trembled violently!
The blood-colored ocean suddenly rolled, and a low hum came from the body of the turning whale, Merlin's face changed slightly, and he grabbed Lin Qiye and Jia Lan with both hands, and a magic array suddenly opened, and the figures of the three disappeared on the back of the turning whale.
By the time they reappeared, they had left the blood-colored ocean and reached the edge of the wreckage-ridden shore.
Lin Qiye turned his head to look, only to see that between the turbulent waves, the huge corpse began to sink gradually, and the scarlet light like blood spread out from its body, covering the entire sea area in an instant.
