Chapter 614: The Eternal Controversy (I)
The fishing village by the sea was destroyed by the war, and less than 12 of the villagers survived.
In the process of rescuing the wounded, he watched his life pass by his fingertips, but almost all the people present were powerless, and Qi Lier tried to use the healing techniques of the Temple of Nature to heal him, but it did not have any effect, only to alleviate the pain of the dying man.
Seeing that the healing technique had no effect, Qi Lier sat down on the ground and couldn't help but sob, feeling that she seemed to be very incompetent, and what she could do lightly in the past now seemed extremely difficult.
Covered in blood, Qilier sat slumped next to the corpse and sobbed, Caroline walked over and comforted softly: "Don't feel sad, don't forget that this is the East, there are completely different laws of civilization from the West, and those healing spells that bring the dead back to life will not work here, so you don't have to blame yourself." โ
Qilier didn't expect Caroline to come to comfort her, she looked up at Caroline, wiped the tears from her face, looked around and said, "But, they are all good people. โ
Lucius suddenly stood up and sighed: "Good people, good people don't necessarily die, some things are destined to be unbreakable by us, death is also a reality that we must face and accept, you should learn to grow up, because we are about to face more death, this is actually nothing in comparison." โ
Listening to Lucius's words, Qilier raised her head and looked at Lucius in surprise, a little unable to believe that such cold words came from Lucius's mouth.
Lucius did not avoid Qi Li'er's gaze, lowered his head and looked directly at Qi Li'er and said, "What? Do you think I'm too cruel and ruthless?"
Qi Li'er nodded meaningfully. But he felt that something seemed inappropriate, so he quickly changed his words and said, "No, no, actually." Actually, I just think you shouldn't say something like that. โ
Caroline turned her head to look at Lucius, and without waiting for Lucius to speak, she took the first step and said: "Actually, Lucius is right, we all have to learn to grow up and face powerless death, and the war we are about to face will be something we can't avoid." The only way to survive is to kill the enemy. โ
At this time, Modรจs also came over. Modรจs, who was also covered in blood, looked at everyone and sighed: "Hey, I feel that in the face of death, we are really too small." โ
Lecius looked up at the sun that had risen. Facing the sunshine from the sky, he said, "Life is worthy of awe." Death is also a test of life, you must withstand the test, in order to be able to get the sublimation of life, perhaps when you truly overcome death, you will be the real gods. โ
"We?" Hearing Lucius's words, the three girls were suddenly a little surprised, and almost asked in unison: "We can become gods, what about you?"
Lucius smiled calmly and said, "I, I'm not going to be a god." I'm just an ordinary mechanic to be in my limited life force. Just do something that our ancestors didn't do. โ
Qi Li'er was a little uneasy when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "But, but didn't the founder also become a god and gain eternal life, can he travel to and from various planes?"
"Hehe, but that's not what I want, I don't need eternal loneliness, all I need is a moment of brilliance, even if my life is like a meteor across the sky, fleeting, but as long as my light can illuminate the whole sky, I am satisfied, so I will not become a god, let alone pursue eternity. โ
Lucius's words were really a bit unexpected by everyone, everyone originally thought that Lucius had done so much, and after receiving the Founder's inheritance, his goal was to become the eternal god of mechanical civilization.
That was the height reached by the Founder, who was rumored to have left the plane and was able to travel in many different planes because he had broken through the rules and became an eternal god.
The creator of the existence zร i proved that mechanical civilization can achieve eternity, but now Lucius said that he did not want to become an eternal being, he just wanted to have the brilliance of that moment, leaving his own light to illuminate the world, even if it was only a brief light, to illuminate the entire night sky.
At this moment, Konstantin suddenly walked over, patted his metal palm and said with a smile: "Hehe, I really didn't expect that Lucius you are so great." โ
Following the sound and seeing the smile squeezed out of Konstantin's metal face, anyone can deeply feel that Konstantin is deliberately teasing Lucius with his words, in fact, he is very disdainful of what Lecius said, and even has a look of disdain in his eyes.
Lucius didn't say much, just looked at Konstantin quietly, as if he was going to let Konstantin continue to say what he wanted to say.
Konstantin was not polite, and said very directly: "Your Highness Lucius, your ideals are really high, and in an instant your whole person has become extremely tall, even I, a former god, have to admit that even the gods of the Magic Heaven have never had such a thought as you." โ
"In the eyes of all beings who seek power, to gain unrivaled power and become the supreme and silent being, that is our ultimate goal, although I have not really entered the magic heaven, but I can still clear some feelings through guรฒ, that place also exists with cruel competition. โ
As Constantine said, competition is everywhere, and even in the magical heavens, which have existed forever, the gods want to be more powerful, and they want to continue to expand the scope of magic heavens.
In the Magic Heaven, not all gods are eternal, and it is said that only those who can sit on the throne of the god king can be regarded as truly coexisting with the Magic Heaven, and with the eternal existence of the Magic Heaven, the other gods will also be in danger of being destroyed.
For the throne of those god-kings in the kingdom of heaven, the gods of the magical heavenly kingdom have almost exhausted every means, and they are engaged in almost endless battles all the time.
No god would say that they just want to light up the night sky like a brilliant meteor, and even if they can't get eternal life in the end, they only need a short period of brilliance.
Konstantin stared at Lecius and said, "Do you know that eternal life is the most fundamental pursuit of every life, and it is the driving force for the survival of life, but you obviously have the opportunity to obtain eternity, but you choose to give up on your own initiative, and you are not willing to get that eternal life, you are a coward at all." โ
"Coward?" said Lucius at Konstantin, stunned, chewing on the two words that Konstantin had finally commented on himself.
After a long time, he asked, "Then what does it mean not to be a coward?" to become an eternal being, and to gain unrivaled power, but so what?"
Konstantin was a little annoyed when he heard this, and he took a few steps closer and asked, "Since you have lost your fighting spirit yourself, then why do you still want Shirou to fight? Could it be that you gave him a powerful mechanical source core just to make him shine in the world for a short time?"
Hearing this, Lucius nodded: "Yes, I gave him the mechanical source core of the Infinity Sword so that he could have the strength to fight against his fate." โ
Without waiting for Konstantin to reply, Lucius continued: "I didn't want him to fight for the so-called eternity, and I never thought that he would replace Amaterasu in Fuso. โ
Hearing this, everyone present was amazed, and Lucius was very puzzled in the face of everyone's surprise, and asked: "Don't you know? Is it true that in your eyes, fighting against fate is just to get eternal life?"
Qi Li'er said with some confusion at this moment, "Isn't it? From the day I entered the temple, my goal was to grow up, gain great power, and become a god who can be eternal. โ
Konstantin sneered and responded to Lecius: "See, this is the right way, you want to use your limited life to change the entire plane, that is simply an unrealistic extravagant hope." โ
This time, even Du Liniang disagreed with Lu Xiusius, shook her head and said: "You have to become an eternal first, become a god of mechanical civilization, and then change the plane of a qiqi, then you can have enough power, and if you want to change directly, it is a very difficult road." โ
Belletti also walked over at some point, looked at Lucius and reminded, "It is necessary to remind you that the original founder also tried the same path, but you saw it?"
"But the founder succeeded, isn't most of the things in the current Western Continent in accordance with the rules inherited from the original Sanctuary? This is a kind of influence, and it didn't disappear because the founder left, the founder is like that bright meteor, changing a qiฤ, isn't it?"
Lucius's persistence surprised everyone, and Beludi shook her head and said, "No, it's not what you think, it took a long time for the founder to succeed completely, not directly, do you remember the different eras that the Sanctuary went through?"
Seeing that Lucius was deep in thought, Beludi knew that Lucius should recall that, so she whispered: "In the different eras of the Sanctuary, the founder has made various attempts and efforts, he actually wants to establish an eternal kingdom belonging to the mechanical civilization, but in the end he failed to succeed. โ
"So what?" Lucius continued to ask rhetorically, looking as innocent as an ignorant child, even to the point of naivety.
Konstantin snorted coldly and said: "You really don't give up, you want to rely on your own strength to rebuild that holy realm and turn that sacred realm into an eternal kingdom of mechanical civilization, but you don't have eternal power yourself, how can you do that?" (To be continued......)
