"I really can't imagine it. Is it really possible to go back in time and change the past? Wouldn't doing so bring about a lot of problems?"
Theresa said. "For example, if someone went back in time and killed his grandfather, he couldn't have been born at all. How could he go back in time and kill his grandfather? This was simply a self-contradictory endless loop.
"If the Devourer really traveled back in time from the future, everything it did would have caused some kind of disturbance to our era. No matter whether this disturbance was good or bad, after hundreds of millions of years of fermentation, it would be like a storm caused by the flapping of a butterfly's wings. It would definitely change its original future beyond recognition. It might not even exist anymore. Then, how could it travel back in time and change everything?
"Aiya, it feels so complicated and profound. It's going around in circles."
"That's right. The mysteries of time definitely surpass the mysteries of space. Even if the primitive civilizations had extended their tentacles of exploration to every corner of the Multiverse and could fold space as they wished, reaching the other side from one end of the universe in an instant, they still could not break through the barrier of time and rewind for even a second."
Fei Cui said, "Perhaps, to the intelligent life forms of the higher dimensions, time is not a continuous river, but a huge scroll formed by countless solidified drawing papers. As long as they pay a certain price, they can go back in time and scribble on the drawing papers. They can even insert some new drawing papers to lead the scroll in another direction.
"In other words, the past can't be changed, but the past can be created, just like how a tree grows new branches and gives birth to countless branches. The Devourer doesn't want to destroy this world. Instead, it wants to create a new one."
Theresa fell into deep thought.
"I don't know …"
She muttered. "Is the Devourer good or bad? Is it destroying or creating?"
"I don't know either …"
Fei Cui said, "Are you humans good or bad? Are you destroying the universe or creating a new future?"
Theresa was speechless for a moment. She and Jade looked at each other in silence.
"If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it. After all, your brain has been madly absorbing the inheritances of the previous captains of the Jade. It's been overused and is close to overdraft. There's no need to go into a dead end on such a vague question," Jade said.
Fei Cui said, "Anyway, as you digest and absorb more of the Captain's Legacy, you will become smarter and smarter, and your calculation ability will also become stronger. You will be able to see through many problems, schemes, and arrangements that you couldn't see through in the past. Perhaps, one day, you will understand yourself, whether the humans and the Devourers are good or evil, good or evil, as well as creation or destruction.
"Now, have a good rest and prepare for the coronation ceremony in ten days' time!"
…
Ten days later.
The transportation hub of the Bloody Battle Devil World, the Thousand Gate Mountain, was the core of countless teleportation arrays.
A few months ago, the Prison Exterminator Race and the allied forces of the six alien races had fought a fierce battle here, leaving a trail of blood and corpses strewn everywhere.
But now, all the broken limbs and the traces left by the bombardment of cannons had been cleaned up. Tens of thousands of demons of various races were wearing sincere smiles on their faces. They were dressed splendidly and were teleported here from the nests of various races in the depths of the Devil Realm. Even when they saw their sworn enemies in the past, they sheathed their weapons and gave them a strong bear hug instead.
Hundreds of thousands of demons had gathered here to witness the miracle of the Saintess of the Giant Cannon, Theresa.
It was said that this saintess had received the blessings of billions of demon ancestors in the Bloody Battle Demon world. She was the most powerful being in the history of the Bloody Battle Demon world.
It was said that when the evil Devourer defeated Great Monarch Kuba, who used to be the strongest expert in the Devil Realm, with one strike, the Saintess of the Giant Cannon blew the Devourer into pieces with one strike.
It was said that this saintess's cannon was even more terrifying than ten Prison Exterminating Cannons combined. When the cannon roared, the entire Bloody Battle Demon world trembled.
It was said that the former Crimson Empress, Witch Kelly, had already recognized the Saintess of the Giant Cannon as her only successor. When the Saintess of the Giant Cannon came to the Crimson Palace, all the treasures hidden in the palace were opened to her.
It was said that the Saintess of the Giant Cannon had the key to activating the entire Devil Realm. Under her control, the power furnaces that had been sealed for tens of thousands of years were reignited one after another. Only then could the demons obtain fresh food, clean water, fresh air, and powerful arsenals.
And the most important "rumor" was that the Giant Cannon Saintess was said to have a stunning beauty. Vulgar words like "captivating birds and beasts, outshining the moon and putting flowers to shame" weren't enough to describe even one ten-thousandth of her beauty. Such a devastatingly beautiful face, coupled with the scene of her majestic descent from the sky, made her seem like the double incarnation of the Goddess of Wisdom and the Goddess of War.
All of the demons who had seen the Giant Cannon Saintess on the battlefield kept repeating how perfect and flawless she was. She was so beautiful that it could shake one's soul. It was so tragic that it could even be described as a tragedy.
The demons who had not seen the Saintess of the Giant Cannon also drew a vague image of her in their hearts through their companions' exaggerations. They became more and more curious and wanted to know what the new ruler of the Bloody Battle Demon world looked like.
Even the jealous witches did not seem to have any resistance to the Saintess of the Giant Cannon. The witches who had seen the Saintess of the Giant Cannon all said that this Saintess had a very unique temperament that transcended gender. Even the witches were almost infatuated with her.
Therefore, the grand ceremony of the Saintess of the Giant Cannon being crowned as the new Crimson Empress became a festival that the entire Bloody Battle Demon world cheered for. Not only did the leaders and warriors of the seven demon races who had been invited come as promised, kneel on one knee, and pledge their loyalty to the temporary palace on the Thousand Gate Mountain respectfully, many other demons also came uninvited. They crowded the periphery of the Thousand Gate Mountain, holding their breaths as they waited for this most perfect and most powerful Saintess to show her true face.
Du! Du! Du!
Hundreds of demons with bulging chests and astonishingly large lung capacities began to blow enormous horns that were three meters long.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The war drums that were originally mounted on the Hell-Exterminating Cannons were dismantled and gathered on a gigantic drum platform that was a hundred meters wide. Hundreds of half-naked Hell-Exterminating Demons bulged their muscles and used all their strength to beat the drums. The sound of the drums was like a tsunami, arousing the expectations of everyone.
Huala! Huala! Huala!
With the sound of armor rubbing against each other, hundreds of thousands of legs knelt on one knee, hundreds of thousands of fists punched their chests, hundreds of thousands of mouths began to chant an ancient war song, and hundreds of thousands of eyes stared at the temporary palace on the Thousand Gate Mountain without blinking, waiting for their Saintess, their Empress.
