50. Snakes

"Now I finally don't have to be pestered by those people. ”

With the return of dozens of "lost" comrades, Frey can finally stop dealing with the unfriendly Celestials - even if they still have a lot of doubts in their hearts, they can now focus on those comrades...... After all, these people are still unconscious.

"When did you have such murderous abilities?"

Miss Purple Ponytail looked at Aisha suspiciously, she knew exactly how far Aisha could reach and what kind of things she could do. However, even if she is powerful, she will never be able to be omnipotent, not to mention, when it comes to the field of life and death, the rules have always been extremely strict and harsh.

Because Aisha is strong, it is even more impossible for her to take matters into her own hands to bring the dead back to the present world.

"Of course I didn't do it...... It's the handiwork of that stupid snake. ”

"Uh, the big snake?"

Miss Purple Ponytail immediately choked herself on a sip of herbal tea - when Aisha said that she was going to try to "communicate" with the serpent, Miss Purple Ponytail only thought she was just an excuse. Because, for Miss Purple Ponytail, the raging and angry serpent she faced at that time left a very deep impact on her...... So in Miss Purple Ponytail's heart, this big snake was almost labeled as "irritable and irritable".

But then again, the big snake that looks very majestic and terrifying, in fact, the mental age is basically just a loli who is not yet an adult, and it is naturally impossible to persuade a child to start a temper...... And Miss Purple Ponytail unfortunately bumped into the moment when the other party's anger was still unresolved.

"People are the shavers of the good camp. No, after calming the anger. She also realized her mistake and generously killed those who were mistakenly killed by her. They are all resurrected. ”

Despite the situation at the time of resurrection, it is enough to know that there are still toxic radio waves in Aisha's brain.

"Hmm...... That snake can still do this?"

This made Miss Purple Ponytail have to be surprised, compared to the big snake being able to regain her senses and establish friendly relations with herself, its ability made Miss Purple Ponytail care very much.

"When I arrived at the scene, except for the crumbling Kelly, the rest of the Celestials were wiped out. Even its own material existence has been completely erased by it. How could it be so easy to resurrect them when the corpses had completely disappeared?"

It's no wonder that Miss Purple Ponytail was shocked - although a spell like resurrection is not a rare skill, it can be cast, and the conditions and costs are very harsh. And it hasn't been more than a day since Aisha left, and at this time, he can actually kill the dead people who don't have any corpses. A complete resurrection on a massive scale!

Miss Purple Ponytail can see very clearly that those Celestial Realm people brought back by Aisha have no defects in their souls, and they are by no means incomplete resurrections. Although there are some injuries on his body. However, after careful identification, it is not difficult to find that these injuries were caused by Aisha's rough "handling".

"My identity with that snake. A little bit of speculation. ”

"Oh?"

Miss Purple Ponytail is also quite curious about this: "A snake that can reverse life and death...... A snake with a power similar to that of the sun...... What the hell is it? Ah, yes. The place where it appears is the throat of the world......"

"Well. You're a bit of an eyebrow, aren't you?"

“...... Doesn't that mean that there will be another snake that corresponds to her? Since there is a snake of the sun that symbolizes the yang world, there is another ...... corresponding to it."

"No, the other 'snake' you are thinking of should not exist zài. ”

Aisha dismissed Miss Purple Ponytail's speculation.

"How is this possible? Since it appears in the form of a 'snake', there can't be only one! Although there is also a theoretical concept of 'Ouroboros', the throat of the world is not the beginning or the end, and it is impossible to satisfy the self-cycle!"

"Although it is very similar to ...... However, do you really think that guy is a 'snake'?"

"Huh?"

Miss Purple Ponytail couldn't help but be a little stunned -- it wasn't a "snake?" But if it wasn't a "snake," what was it? The existence of a "strange thing" in a place like "The Throat of the World" could be imagined with your toes.

In addition to snakes, what other powerful symbolic species has such a narrow body? It can't be a loach ribbon fish!

"Hmm...... Could it be that ......" Miss Purple Ponytail's expression changed suddenly, and she finally remembered that the concept of "snake" itself was a relatively vague concept. Even on the other side of the earth, whether in Eastern legends or Western mythology, the "snake" is inextricably linked to another, more mysterious creature.

And in this world, if you go forward, there have been similar arguments and legends in the past.

"You mean, that guy, is it a dragon?"

Of course, Miss Purple Horsetail is definitely not referring to the traditional totem of a people with thousands of years of history in another world - although in that mythological system, the dragon was illusioned by a carp jumping onto the dragon gate, but according to historical evidence, the totem of the dragon evolved from the snake. However, the concept of "dragon" in that mythological system does not correspond to the current situation.

...... To put it mildly, dragons that look like loaches are not the only ones in the Celestial Empire.

The "dragon" in Eastern mythology is not all a "traditional" image, and the dragon in other mythological systems is also dominated by the concept of "snake". For example, in Norse mythology, Nidhogg, the black dragon who gnawed the World Tree, was an evil dragon with the concept of "snake".

Similarly, in this world, there are similar legends.

"This guy...... Is it the 'Dragon of the End' that should have appeared at that time, but did not come in the end?"

When Miss Purple Ponytail said this name, Frey's face also changed, and she instantly became bloodless. Maybe for the villagers who have not received much of a good education. It's hard to understand this name, but it's the cornerstone of the "Throat of the World." Frey, however, understood what the name meant.

"The 'Dragon of the End'...... Rebantan!?"

"Oh, Frey, you know that name, too?"

"Of course I do! The final dragon that devours the world of destruction means the final catastrophe of the world -- no one and nothing can escape from this embodiment of destruction! Its appearance means that the world has hopelessly stepped into destruction!"

"Is your brain burned out?"

Miss Purple Ponytail saw that Aisha did not deny this speculation, and knew that Aisha's answer was so. However, because of this, she felt incomprehensible: "This world. Where are the trends and signs of ruin?"

Others don't know, but Miss Purple Ponytail knows very well that the so-called "Dragon of the End" is not the demon who destroys the Miè world, but the embodiment of the world that performs the task of restarting when the world is at an end! At the beginning, after the three Holy Spirits handed over the function of restarting the world, this right was returned to the world itself. So. In a sense, the status represented by the "Dragon of the End" is equivalent to the "destroyer of the world" performed by the Holy Spirit in the past reincarnation.

Merely. This is simply carried out by the will of the world itself.

However, in the end, the will of the world is no matter how ruthless it is. I won't take the initiative to destroy the miè world. It can even be said that it is the destruction of the world. The Holy Spirit is much more "generous" than in the past—the Holy Spirit sometimes carries out acts of destruction "a little earlier." And the extinction promoted by the will of the world will only occur when the world has been completely cut off from vitality.

Basically, people's misunderstanding of the Dragon of the End is somewhat similar to that of the Raven, who is considered by many to be an ominous bird and a messenger of death. But in fact, it is not the crow that brings death, but it smells death and comes.

It's the same with the Dragon of the End.

The great tribulation of the past finally stopped at the precipice in time - even though the loss of the three Holy Spirits caused the vitality of the world to be greatly damaged, but it still survived in the end. Even though the ancient civilization was almost completely destroyed for a while, the fire remained, hope was preserved, and the world continued.

Because of this, the last "Dragon of the End" has never been born.

"It's the fact that you forgot jì. Aisha looked directly into Miss Purple Ponytail's eyes very seriously, "Do you remember where the root of the functions of the 'Dragon of the End' came from?"

The function of destroying the world?

"That's from three ...... Wait, do you mean, that world-destroying function has been stolen!?"

Frey was completely misty on the sidelines, but she could still understand the key words in Miss Purple Ponytail's words - the function of destroying the world had been stolen.

And Miss Purple Ponytail's face also turned pale. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Frey would have found it hard to imagine that this girl, who had always been full of self-confidence, would have such a gaffe expression. The current Miss Purple Ponytail has a face full of fear, panic, and uneasiness...... and anger.

As their relationship improves more or less (Miss Purple Ponytail refuses to admit this fact!), Aisha also reveals some secrets to Miss Purple Ponytail that she recently learned before her birth. Originally, Aisha didn't plan to tell anyone about it, but after all, Miss Purple Ponytail was a Cunzi from the same source as her, and she was qualified to know this.

In a sense, it is precisely because of the secrecy before the birth of her and Miss Purple Ponytail that it is quite terrifying, and it must have affected Miss Purple Ponytail's original perverse character. Even she, after learning about the expectations of her three sisters for "herself" and the sacrifices she made for it, it is difficult for her to say such wild words as willfully as she did in the past.

Miss Purple Ponytail is still very attentive to her three sisters.

"That's right, the function of destroying the world has been stolen. ”

Aisha admits to Miss Purple Ponytail's terrible conjecture. In fact, in her heart, as far as her feelings are concerned, she also very much does not want this to happen, but all kinds of evidence show that this has become an established fact.

As for who the "thief" is, Aisha does not need to say much. Miss Purple Ponytail could also think of her identity - what other guy had such power besides the evil god who was gathered by the negative emotions of the three Holy Spirits. Snatch authority from the will of the world?

Speaking of which, the power of the will of the world is infinite. But that doesn't mean it's omnipotent -- the price of having the greatest power is that it can never transcend the slightest bit of the rules! Whether it's right or wrong, good or evil, as long as it relies on the established rules, it can't make changes, and the only thing it can do is to make some changes in accordance with the rules it makes, and sanction them in a "legal" way.

The most typical example. It is those who were originally unknown, but in the end, after a series of adventures and twists and turns, they became brave and slashed evil.

In a world where development is not yet perfect and power is not sufficient, the will of the world can still be a little capricious, but in the world in which Aisha lives, there is no room for it to make its own decisions—once it has taken that dangerous step, the will of the world is no longer the will of the world.

At that time, it had only one ending of self-destruction. Finally, there is a new world will to replace the former, which has fallen and decayed. Even if such an infinitely powerful being is broken, once he breaks his vows, he will lose his invincible supreme power and will fall from a god to a man.

So. When a certain evil god, with the convenience of his identity, occupied the world-destroying function of the "Dragon of the End" in advance. Although it is still weak, it can be the great will of the world. He can't even punish the guy who digs its corner.

Because in terms of the rules it makes. There's nothing wrong with that!

If you dare to do such a thing with a negative sense of negative feelings in the general sense, then there is still a full excuse and basis for punishing it. However, the negative consciousness that was discarded by the three Holy Spirits is not so simple as that they have abandoned it, but rather that they have "incidentally" attached some products while giving up their function of destroying the world.

These negative consciousnesses are inherently integrated with the function of destroying the world!

The most important thing is that when it took away this world-destroying function, the "Dragon of the End" was only a legend, but it did not appear on the stage of history once! That is to say, the "Dragon of the End" was still just a concept, and it was not translated into a fact of existence in time, and this gave the evil god an opportunity to take advantage of it.

At the end of the catastrophe caused by the ancient elves, the "Dragon of the End" was unable to appear in the end thanks to the efforts of the ancient elves at that time, and before it found a second chance to appear, one hand still took it for itself.

"The enemy we are facing on this journey has awakened in this age—the moment it awakens and takes shape, the world-destroying function of the 'Dragon of the End' is taken by her. Now, the traditional concept of the 'Dragon of the End' is almost gone, and if that guy were to appear in the form of a dragon, he could be cheeky and call himself so. ”

"This is, this snake has not appeared before, until the past two days, it suddenly appeared, and it is almost impossible to guess the origin?"

Miss Purple Ponytail finally understood why none of the parties had recorded the existence of this powerful giant beast - it turned out that it was not "hibernating" and "sleeping" here, but that it had not actually been saved until the past two days!

It's just when something happens to little Io!

"So, that guy has just lost the meaning and concept of 'end', and only the concept of 'dragon' remains?"

Moreover, because she was deprived of most of the concept at the beginning of her birth, her image is also closer to the original 'snake'. However, she will definitely not be a 'dragon' in the general concept - when the evil god awakens and hides with the body of little Io, the concept of the remaining 'dragon' of the final dragon has also been repaired by the will of the world. It was supposed to be to prevent the catastrophe that might lead to destruction in the future, and the stupid snake was endowed with a power that was completely inconsistent with the original intention of the 'Dragon of the End'. The power to reverse life and death, the power to break magic, and the powerful destructive power of light and heat, which symbolizes the sun, are all weapons that are extremely aimed at the evil god. Although in terms of hard power, it is definitely not as good as the guy in his heyday, but under the restraint of attributes, he still has enough deterrent power. ”

With such a potential threat, it is not difficult for Aisha to understand why the evil god. will try his best to seize the last power of his body. Only three types of spiritual powers. No matter how strong it is, it can't form a complete self-cycle after all.,It's suppressed by the power of the stupid snake Lori.。 A stupid snake Lori is no match for it. But if there is an even enemy at the same time, there is also an extra stupid snake Lori who can restrain it very much, it is definitely a situation that it is unwilling to face.

"That's a ...... Ah, in that case, I can only be beaten up by her for nothing?"

The Holy Spirit is already an outdated being, the darling of the world now, but the great serpent...... At the thought of the will of the world standing behind that hateful snake, Miss Purple Ponytail couldn't help but feel depressed.

This can only knock out the front teeth and swallow it yourself......

"It's not like you didn't hurt her. Each other. ”

"When you comfort others, you can hide the schadenfreude in your eyes!"

Miss Purple Ponytail glared fiercely at the insincere Aisha.

"So what do we do now?

"Of course we have to continue! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity -- if conditions permit, and if we are lucky, when we go back, we will have a chance to annihilate that soul in one fell swoop!"

===============

"Lilou, these two days. Do you have something on your mind?"

"Huh, no...... If you don't......"

“...... You're really not going to lie. ”

Lin was also quite speechless about Lilou's attitude of not having three hundred taels of silver here - it was clear that her master Luna, although she had a very straightforward personality, was also a little thoughtful and in the city (but it didn't work!--Elf Empress language). Why is her only student, why is her personality still so simple?

You know, Lilou just looks like a little girl. The actual age is already an adult. Could it be that the age of appearance. Sometimes it can potentially affect my thinking?

Lynn thought about her situation...... Immediately felt that this point of view was so reasonable, and she couldn't refute it at all.

"Are you worried about your Royal Highness the Princess?"

"Hmm. I'm worried about Io...... Wait!" Lilou nodded lonely at first, then reacted, hiding a trap in Lynn's words, "Well, it's not 'mine'...... Your Royal Highness Princess, how can it be that it belongs to me alone!"

"Oh-?"

Looking at Lilou, who looked nervous and unconsciously pointed at her fingers, Lynn felt as if she had seen herself a few years ago - at that time, she couldn't face the admiration of that person, and in retrospect, it seemed to be more or less like this, right?

"Don't pretend~ The fragrant smell of the girl's love has already wafted into my nose?"

"Lynn, don't talk nonsense!"

Lilou quickly looked around, and when she realized that there was no one else around, she breathed a sigh of relief-just kidding! Even if she did have a little thought about Io, how could she say it in public! Io was a princess, a princess with an unusual status!

"What is there to be nervous about?"

Lin couldn't help laughing: "Stupid, for now, even if this kind of thing is broken, what if this kind of thing is broken?

Lilou is clearly not yet conscious - she has inherited Luna's status as guardian, and her social status in elven society is still high...... As a result, this stupid guy still thinks of himself as the original little sentinel, right?

"Uh......h I've said it, I'm not in that kind of relationship...... Huh, huh!?"

Lilou couldn't help but exclaim, for her pair of ponytails were now held in the palm of her hand by a gentle assailant.

"Language can be faked, but with a double ponytail, it can't lie?"

Someone else said such a thing, maybe Lilou would have to defend a few more words, but when Lin (Lin: What the hell!), who is also a double ponytail, said it, Lilou found that she was completely unable to refute it.

"The double ponytail in love is different from usual. ”

"Yes...... Is that so?"

Being said so by the "seniors" in the same field, Lilu also felt less embarrassed.

"Lynn, I'...... Can I ask you a favor?" (To be continued......)
