Chapter 47: The Seed of Hope

Lucius, who was caught in the light curtain, looked at the young man standing in front of him in a daze, with a warm and sunny smile on his face, and the young man in front of him, who did not look much older than himself, looked very similar to the founder between his eyebrows.

And when Lucius was stunned, the young man smiled and spoke first: "Welcome Lucius, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you are finally standing here." โ€

Being directly named by the other party, Lucius was surprised and relieved, and said incredulously: "You, how do you know my name?"

"Hehe, why can't I know your name? From the moment you stepped into the Misty Forest, I was watching you, I let you enter the door of revelation, walk through the ladder of history, just to understand you more clearly, to know your thoughts, to know your intuitive feelings and reactions to certain things. โ€

"And you, did not disappoint me, you successfully walked through the ladder of history, although there are too many confusions in your heart, but you can still stick to your true self, even if your heart is full of doubts, you can still clearly know what you want, which makes me very satisfied. โ€

Speaking of this, the young man stretched out his hand to Lucius, spread out his palm, and a cloud of white mist appeared, and the young man smiled and handed it to Lucius and said: "This steam source core belongs to you, I hope you can make good use of it and bring hope to the living beings on the mainland." โ€

Looking at the vapor source core that had no fixed shape, Lucius could be described as dumbfounded, knowing what the other party said just now, he had already guessed the identity of the other party, and the young man in front of him was probably the founder of the Holy Domain.

And now, when the other party wanted to give him the steam source core that symbolized the core of the Sanctuary, Lucius was still a little relieved for a while, and asked a little puzzled: "Why? Why me? Why do you pass it on to me?"

"......Why?" Unexpectedly, Lucius' question elicited a slightly sad laugh.

Instead, the young man waved his palm, and suddenly a water curtain appeared in front of Lucius's eyes, and the magic runes on the water curtain flickered, showing scenes under the sparkling waves.

In the picture, it was an era of industrial development, and what appeared in the picture was the speeding steam locomotive, the chimneys that spewed smoke, and the drains that flowed out of sewage, the streets were covered with oil and dust, and the sky was gray because of the smoke, and there was no blue sky or white clouds.

Looking at the Qiฤ“ in front of him, Lecius was shocked, he never imagined that industrial development would eventually become what it appeared on the screen, and the sky was gray and covered with oil and dust.

The young man's voice sounded: "Don't you feel surprised? Actually, you don't need to be surprised, what you see is the scene of my construction of the Holy Domain." โ€

"What, what, how could it be like this?" Lucius was shocked when he heard this.

Hearing this, the young man said with a gloomy expression: "This is the result of desire to break free from the shackles, industrial civilization has not developed to the extreme, not enough to support the needs and desires of many living beings, in order to increase industrial capacity, it is natural to pay a heavy price." โ€

Hearing the other party say this, Lucius probably understood the meaning of the other party's words, the streets covered with oil and dust, and the sky full of smoke and dust, this qiฤ“ is the result of a huge gap between supply and demand.

As the boy said, the industrial civilization he established in the Sanctuary was limited in technology and could not achieve efficient production capacity that could fully meet the demand, so he had to increase production in order to make up for it, and as a result, the entire Sanctuary was polluted by industrial waste.

"And the most terrible thing is not environmental pollution, but the decay of the human heart, and then I discovered the greed of human nature, whether it is human beings or other intelligent races, they all have their own greed, and it is greed, the result you see. โ€

After a pause, the young man continued: "So I thought of a way to introduce the gods into the sacred realm, wanting to purify people's hearts with the divinity of the gods, and then there were the four god ages you see. โ€

"Purify the human heart with divinity? How is this possible? How can the divine nature purify the human heart?" Lucius was incredulous when he heard this.

Seeing Lucius's stunned appearance, the young man said with a wry smile on his face: "Hehe, yes, now it seems that my original decision was ridiculous, gods and demons, but between and one thought, divinity and demonism are actually shared by everyone, materialism is rampant, and gods will also be corrupted into demons." โ€

"So after the Black Iron Age, you led the four major card dynasties? Do you want to use royal power to divide the divine power, and use the two powers to contain each other to stop the corruption in the Sanctuary?"

After listening to Lucius's snatching white, the young man stared at him dumbfounded for a moment before he exclaimed: "Hehe, it's really right to choose you, I didn't expect you to be able to guess my thoughts." โ€

For the other party's admiration, Lucius said very disapprovingly: "It's not difficult to guess, if you connect the pictures of the historical ladder and see these for me now, you can guess it, but I don't understand, since the royal power and the divine power check and balance each other and can reach a balance point, why does the holy realm still develop like this?"

"Because the balance is broken. The boy replied to Lucius with a calm expression.

"The balance is broken, why is it broken?"

Hearing Lucius's question, the other party suddenly smiled, and with a wave of his hand, the water curtain sparkled, showing a different picture, which was a young man wearing the robes of a papal priest, walking into a dimly lit hall.

In the young man's hand, holding a metal card, casting a magic array through the water curtain, Lucius could clearly see that the card turned into a red heart symbolizing "wisdom".

The young man walked to the inside of the temple, in front of the ancient altar, placed the card on the altar, drew a dagger from his waist, grasped the blade of the dagger with his hand, and recited an obscure incantation in his mouth.

As the obscure incantation was chanted, the dagger sliced open his palm little by little, and blood rolled down the dagger, all the while completely staining both of his arms red.

Eventually, when a drop of blood dropped, the entire altar was stained red with blood in the blink of an eye, and the scarlet blood rolled on the altar, and the metal card floated in the blood, and the blood gathered into a scarlet heart.

The scarlet heart floated, and the young man gazed at the heart gathered from his own blood, raised the blood-stained dagger in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Take my blood as a sacrifice, and in my name command the gods, the demon gods of House Solomon, please revive and regain your former strength." โ€

The next moment, the dagger pierced straight into the floating red heart, and the moment the dagger pierced, the floating scarlet blood heart was immediately pierced, and blood spilled all over the altar.

In the blink of an eye, the entire hall was covered in scarlet, and through the water curtain magic array, Lucius could clearly see that in the depths of the scarlet bloody hall, several tall, low, magnificent, or beautiful figures slowly walked out.

Even through the curtain of water, Lucius could clearly feel the terrifying aura emanating from those figures.

Finally, when the figures came out of the darkness to the altar, Lecius saw the faces of the figures, but saw that they were either handsome and holy like gods, or ugly and hideous like demon kings.

And when they came to the altar, they all knelt down in unison to the young man and said to the young man in unison, "Meet the descendants of the great King Solomon, and the seventy-two demon gods will obey your command." โ€

"Seventy-two Demon Gods, descendants of King Solomon of Hearts, they, how could they be together, could it be that Hearts and the Demon Gods have made an alliance?"

The young creator was not surprised by Lucius's incredible exclamation, and he waved his arm to change the magic array water curtain again, revealing a different scene under the sparkling waves.

This time it was a more magnificent, royal hall, with a huge round table in the center of the hall, and a sword in the center of the round table, and two black broken spears crossed on both sides of the sword.

Soon, three figures appeared at the round table, and just by seeing them, Lucius immediately recognized that the three figures were none other than the two sisters Schulard and the Temple of Nature.

When he saw Schuled take out the metal card, Luciuston let out an exclamation: "He, he is actually a descendant of the Black Spear? This, how is this possible? How can they enter the Temple of Nature?"

Hearing this, the young founder smiled and said, "Hehe, it seems that you know the Sword Family, the Black Spear? That's just the name of their family to the outside world, in the card royal family I set up, they are in charge of force, and they should be as sharp as unsheathed swords." โ€

He pointed to the round table and the sword in the center of the round table and said, "See, this is the sword in the stone of the first sword king, and his most famous round table council." โ€

After that, the magic array water curtain changed again, this time showing a golden and brilliant palace, the entire hall floor was paved with gold, and the arches made of gold on both sides were inlaid with large diamonds.

In the center of the temple, surrounded by many treasures, is a wooden chair encased in gold and set with precious stones, on which sits a crown of the same gold, and below the crown is a scepter inlaid with oversized diamonds.

A figure walked slowly, walked along the golden avenue to the throne, reached out and took the golden crown, put it on his head without hesitation, then took the scepter, and turned to sit on the throne.

"Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the ...... of Forpos", and three pictures appeared on the water curtain.

Sitting at the round table, holding a sword in the stone, the three of Shule were guarded by many knights of the round table.

Sitting alone on the throne, surrounded by many riches, Phaupos.

and the young man who is guarded by the seventy-two demon gods and can't see his face clearly, but holds the heart card in his hand.

The scene in front of him had already made Lucius completely stunned, he didn't expect that the other three descendants of the card royal family would have such a strong capital.

Compared to them, he is really dwarfed, but he has those mechanical demons in the power workshop, and he has obtained the mechanical source core and the steam source core, but in addition to this, Lucius is really poor.

Seeing that Lecius was silent staring at the picture, the young creator asked, "What? Do you feel that there is a gap between you and them? Actually, you don't need to feel frustrated, you should have seen that they have all cooperated with the gods and demons, whether they are captured with wisdom, bought with wealth, or made an agreement by force." โ€

"In short, they have all been corrupted and degenerate, which I had never thought of before, that is, the combination of divine power and royal power, this combination of power, broke the constraint between the two that I envisioned, and thus caused the entire Sanctuary to fall into decay and depravity, and finally to the destruction of today. โ€

Hearing this, Lucius understood the helplessness of the founder, he did not expect that the divine power would collude with the royal power, so as to completely break the original constraints between the two.

After a moment of pause, he asked: "However, since the Sanctuary is about to destroy Miรจ, and you already understand the reason for destroying Miรจ, what is the purpose of you giving me the Steam Source Core now? You don't think that I can rebuild the Sanctuary anyway, do you?"

The young creator smiled strangely, stretched out his hand to scatter the magic water curtain, and stretched out his finger to inject the vapor source core into Lucius's body, and a huge amount of information instantly filled Lucius's brain.

Under the impact of the majestic amount of information, Lu Xiuston felt dizzy for a while, and he only vaguely heard it during the fainting, and the young founder smiled and said to himself: "Child, ruining miรจ is just for the sake of new life, new life needs hope, choose you, I just planted the seeds of hope, looking forward to taking root, sprouting, blossoming and bearing fruit." โ€
