"Why … …"
Duke Emerald Sparrow, whose face was swollen and bruised, was tied together with Lady Crane Wanglan and thrown to the side, muttering unwillingly, "I'm clearly the descendant of Birbom, why is this happening … …"
Unfortunately, apart from Mo Li who found a branch from nowhere and squatted on the ground to poke the two people, Xu Shenxing and the rest's attention was no longer here.
"The fun you're talking about is the situation of two amusing people who thought that they were blessed by the heavens, and after a series of actions, they realized that even the premise was wrong?" Xu Shenxing asked a certain god.
"Yes, isn't it very interesting?" Charlotte nodded, "Observing the amusing behavior of humans is one of the few remaining joys of my existence as the apex of gods."
"What a bad taste … …"
Xu Shenxing's face was full of disagreement, "It feels like those evil gods in myths who amuse people for fun."
"That's not the case, I didn't add fuel to the fire for the two people's actions, I was just observing in secret. Everything was their own choice." Charlotte turned a blind eye to Xu Shenxing's helplessness and turned to look at Weiler, who was at a loss, "Compared to this, it's about time to get to the point."
For this little boy, what happened in the past two days was completely beyond his scope of understanding.
Not to mention Countess Crane Wanglan or Duke Emerald Sparrow, in the past, even Lauren Claudian, who was a knight, was not someone a poor orphan like him could approach. After all, the difference in status between the two was too great.
In addition, in this non-fantasy world without supernatural powers, the solidification of the social class created by the era was almost impossible to break. If it wasn't for the sudden appearance of Xu Shenxing and the rest, this child would probably be like this for the rest of his life.
"What?"
Seeing Xu Shenxing and Charlotte's gaze fall on him, Weiler couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"I'm afraid they want you to open the door." At this moment, Lauren Claudien appeared rather calm. "If you think about it carefully, the fact that they brought you along is very strange. After all, I'm the only adventurer to reach the summit of Amos, and Duke Emerald Sparrow is also a Duke. If you think about it this way, the only reason I brought you along is that you fulfilled the requirement to open the legendary garden of the gods. "
Alright, although the knight's guess was full of loopholes due to the lack of information (Charlotte only brought him and Duke Emerald Sparrow because she thought it would be fun), his final conclusion was surprisingly correct.
"Weiler, you might find it strange, but you're probably the one with the purest Birbom bloodline in this world."
Charlotte placed the golden apple on the snowy ground in front of the boy and slowly explained to him.
In fact, the boy did not find it hard to understand what she meant. His father was a great sage of the ancient times, but his mother's ancestors were secretive and never talked much about it. Combined with the small wooden box that was passed down from generation to generation, which hid Alan Birbom's will and belongings, it wouldn't be strange even if he really was a descendant of the Supreme King.
But because of that, the boy suddenly felt a sense of resistance. Could it be that the people who were so nice to him along the way were actually using his power to enter the legendary residence of the gods?
"The golden apple isn't the key to open the door, it's the door itself … The real key is something else." Charlotte continued.
"Something else … Could it be?!"
Weiler remembered the bird-shaped candle in the box that was passed down from generation to generation.
At the same time, the feeling that he was being schemed against became even stronger.
"Don't worry. Although it's not good to say this, but in fact, due to certain reasons, even if Xi Wei and I don't have Birbom's bloodline, as long as we have the Walking Cuckoo Candle, we can still open the Golden Apple Garden. The reason why I'm letting you do it is to fulfill a promise made hundreds of years ago, so that both souls can rest in peace! "
Charlotte persuaded softly, as if she could see Weiler's resistance.
Indeed, if they just wanted to open the hidden space on Mount Amos, whether it was Xu Shenxing or Charlotte, as long as they obtained the Goddess' Device: Walking Cuckoo, the difficulty would be greatly reduced.
But Charlotte didn't do that in the end. As a deity, her power was greatly suppressed in this world, but she still possessed a rather wondrous ability. For example, she could faintly sense the strong longing that humans had placed on objects.
It was precisely because she sensed the longing of the founder of the Birbom Dynasty and a faint presence that she made the decision to let Weiler, a descendant of Birbom, complete the ritual.
Perhaps it was difficult for ordinary words to move people who were stubborn, but Charlotte was different. Even though she wasn't in her complete form, when she was serious, her words were like the words of a god, possessing magical power. To a mortal like Wayler, it was no different from a wake-up call.
"I, I know!" So the young boy nodded and took out the candle from his backpack. But soon, he was dumbfounded in the howling cold wind. "But how do I light a fire in this place?"
Even if there was, the ultra-low temperature and howling cold wind would extinguish it in seconds, let alone the lack of a suitable starting material.
"Do you really need to light a fire?"
Charlotte didn't comment and continued to ask gently.
"Ah! Alan Birbom's last wish was … "
An idea flashed in Weiler's mind. Then, he stuffed the candle into his pocket and used his gloved hands to dig on the ground.
Although the accumulated snow on the mountaintop for tens of thousands of years was still 'snow', the long years of wind and rain had already solidified it as solid as ice. Even after being blasted by Lady Crane Wanglan, there were only a few cracks. One could imagine how difficult it was to dig on such a thing with bare hands.
Not only that, but this mountaintop was more than ten thousand meters above sea level. The thin air made breathing difficult, and even ordinary and insignificant movements would cause fatigue several times more than usual.
"I'll help."
Lauren Claudian wanted to help Weiler, but was stopped by Xu Shenxing, who was instructed by Charlotte.
"This isn't something that others can interfere with."
Hundreds of years ago, Alan Birbom failed to fulfill his promise with Zou Juan. His regret and longing before his death passed through time and space at this moment, and entrusted it to his descendant.
This was an obsession that belonged only to him.
His hands were clearly numb, his breathing was difficult, his physical strength was exhausted, and his body temperature was gradually being taken away by the cold wind.
But Weiler still didn't stop. He just knelt on the ground and dug the ground covered by tens of thousands of years of ice and snow.
In the end, he really dug a small hole the size of a palm on the ground!
But at this time, Weiler finally reached his limit. His whole body fell into the snow like a robot without power.
"You can't fall asleep! Open your eyes quickly. If you fall asleep in this place, you definitely won't wake up! "
Lauren Claudian anxiously shouted at the boy.
He wanted to help the boy up, but he was blocked by Xu Shenxing and the others.
In fact, Xu Shenxing was also sweating in his heart.
He had seen many strong-willed soldiers, but those people were all trained adults. To be able to train their skills meant that they had experienced a long period of arduous training. It wasn't strange for them to have a strong will.
But Weiler was just an ordinary child who didn't have any special experience other than these two days. To be honest, it wouldn't be strange if he gave up here. After all, there were only a few people who could grit their teeth and break through their limits.
Just when Weiler didn't move for a long time, and even Charlotte was about to give up, the boy suddenly moved.
He didn't seem to have the strength to stand up again. He just slowly and shakily put the Zou Juan Candle into the hole, and then weakly pushed the pile of ice he dug out back into the hole.
But it was enough.
The Golden Apple seemed to have turned on vibrating mode, and it trembled violently.
The next moment, a blue beam of light spewed out from the Golden Apple and rushed into the sky.
Then, a burst of white light shrouded the entire peak of Mount Amos.
At this time, in the eyes of the people at the foot of the mountain and in the vicinity, Mount Amos had turned into a huge world tree. The originally towering peak had now become a straight trunk, and the huge white light that expanded and reflected in the sky was like a tree crown. Countless golden light spots flickered in it like golden fruits.
This scene was so shocking that it could be imagined that even hundreds or thousands of years later, this scene would still be passed down in the form of legends in this area.
At this moment, in the white light, except for Charlotte, Xu Shenxing, and Mo Li, everyone else had disappeared. They weren't dead, but had been isolated to another space.
No, in a sense, it should be Xu Shenxing and the others who were isolated to another space.
Because there was no doubt that they were now in the legendary divine kingdom, the Golden Apple Orchard!
"Thank you, sister."
In the white light filled with a sense of holiness, a girl slowly appeared.
She was leaning on the trunk of an apple tree, smiling at Xu Shenxing and the others.
If Allan Beerbohm was still alive, he would probably be able to discover that this young girl and the woman who appeared in the traveling cuckoo had the same appearance except for the different hair color, which was golden yellow.
"Thanks to all of you, the karma between that strand of my soul and this world has finally been resolved."
The so-called karma, in the words of immortal cultivation, meant that there was still karma to be settled, and there was no way to leave this place in one piece. Only by settling the karma could one be free of worries.
"Compared to that, you didn't 'crash into the world'?"
Xu Shenxing looked at her in surprise. "And here I thought I could only find your divine core in this place …"
"Xi Wei was right. Your condition is too strange, Moritia." Charlotte sighed, but it was obvious that she was in a good mood. "Your presence is spread all over the world, and thanks to this interference, I can't observe the essence of everything more accurately. Or rather, you didn't spread it all over the world, so why is the world filled with your presence?"
"This matter has to be told from an even further time … That's right, from when I transmigrated to this world."
Moridia did not intend to keep them in suspense. She casually explained the reason for the matter. "Although Mr. Olavia and the rest of you may not have noticed it, in fact, this world is a higher world that has already produced a 'world consciousness'."
"I didn't feel it …" Xu Shenxing scratched his face. Since he did not use any world-class combat power, there was no feedback from the world itself.
Still, it was rare for a purely technological world to develop a consciousness.
"Then, when I transmigrated to this world, the 'World Consciousness' of this world was planning to destroy all life in this world."
"Wha …?!"
It wasn't just Xu Shenxing — even Charlotte was surprised.
Generally speaking, the World Consciousness would not pay attention to the birth and development of life. After all, life itself was a part of the world.
Although there were occasionally worlds that specifically targeted a life or its species and exterminated it, that was because the other party's development had begun to cause harm to the world itself.
Normal worlds that killed all life in one go did not exist.
"Was it corrupted by the Great Demonic Realm?"
Xu Shenxing thought about it, and that was probably the only similar situation that was more likely. Only when the World Consciousness was completely corrupted by the madness of the Great Demonic Realm would it develop the idea of eliminating all life.
"That's not it. The World Consciousness of this world is quite healthy." Moritia shook her head and revealed the answer. "It's just 'afraid'."
"Afraid?" Charlotte tilted her head quizzically.
"I don't know the specific situation, but from the information I got after I connected to the World Consciousness with the Goddess' Device — Juro, this world seems to think that in the near future, all worlds will be attacked and destroyed by the 'doomsday' … The reason it wants to destroy all life is that when there is no observer in this world, the existence of the world itself will become ambiguous, between reality and illusion. Only in this way can there be a chance to avoid the attack of the doomsday and allow the world itself to continue to exist."
Moridia told Xu Shenxing and the others the information she had obtained.
Although she did not explain what the doomsday was, Xu Shenxing immediately thought of the [Era of Destruction].
"Then you … could it be …" Charlotte seemed to have thought of something and looked at Moritia with some surprise.
"Well, I took over the authority of Juro and constantly corrected the laws of this world that were distorted by the World Consciousness, so that life can avoid the end of extinction." Moritia replied with a bitter smile.
So as long as there was life in the vicinity of a planet, they would always be able to sense Moritia's presence. This was because she had been facing the malice of the entire universe alone, protecting all life in this world.
Although it was not important to the gods, her current body had reached its limit. Even standing up and walking had become an extravagant hope.
"It's the same for the planet under your feet. It should have been swallowed and burned by the nearby star nearly a thousand years ago, but by constantly modifying the distance between the two that should have gradually closed, this planet was able to survive." Moritia looked a little dispirited. "If it's you, sister, you must have a better way. But this is the limit of what I can do. "
Charlotte remained silent. However, as the only God of many worlds, her status had already surpassed that of the world's creations. If she was independent of the world, she could drag her own world over to help her and use it to communicate with the world's consciousness. She might really be able to tame the other world.
But it was too late to say anything now.
"Originally, it was fine with the help of the Goddess' Device, Walking Cuckoo. But hundreds of years ago, Walking Cuckoo was accidentally lost in the human world. Because she has the ability to instantly reset the part of the Laws that I modified, it was too dangerous. So, I had no choice but to separate a part of my soul to look for her. But by chance, my soul was attached to Walking Cuckoo. Fortunately, although I could not retrieve Walking Cuckoo in time, I still locked her authority to prevent others from using her. "
"So, what are you going to do now?"
Charlotte asked.
"I don't know," Moritia answered bluntly.
"Hey!" Charlotte staggered and almost fell.
"But, shouldn't we leave the problem to our leader?"
Moritia glanced at Mo Li and frowned slightly. Then, she shifted her gaze to Xu Shenxing.
"Didn't our team disband a long time ago?"
Xu Shenxing scratched his head.
"It's okay. In the hearts of my sister and I, Mr. Olavia, you will always be our leader."
The young girl replied with a smile.
"Then, the leader's job is really troublesome …"
Xu Shenxing sighed. "Remove Zhu Luo's Law Modification. I also need to check the situation."
"Do you really want to remove it? If you remove it, maybe the next moment, this planet will directly collide with the star! The life forms in other places will also die in various forms … "
Speaking of this, Moritia's expression became serious.
"Then only remove the one on this planet." Xu Shenxing did not comment on this. His eyes darkened and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "After all, if the other party doesn't make a move, I can't catch its tail, right?"
"Since it's your wish, then we'll do as you wish."
Moritia made her decision almost without any hesitation.
So, the next moment, the inhabitants of this planet suddenly found that the temperature seemed to have risen a lot. The star in the sky, which was translated as the sun, had also become much larger.
"Mo Li, protect this planet!"
“wo~”
Mo Li obediently raised his hands high. Suddenly, a barrier invisible to the naked eye appeared on the periphery of this world.
Almost at the same time, the distortion of the world's will came. In just a moment, this planet was sent to the front of the star, captured by the star's gravity and slowly pulled to the surface of its surface that was more than 6,000 degrees Celsius!
But, just this moment was enough.
Xu Shenxing had found one of the countless causes and effects that connected to the world's will!
Unknowingly, the Holy Sword of the End, Rolandur, had appeared in Xu Shenxing's hand.
"As a world, what are you afraid of!"
He swung the sword. This was not a sword of destruction, but simply cut open the surface of the world, exposing the hidden world's will. The next moment, the entire world's time seemed to have stopped.
Fear, panic, fear … all kinds of emotions flowed into his heart along with his sword. These were probably the world's will's fear of the end of the world, or the [Era of Destruction].
"Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir. It's not easy to have self-consciousness, and it's normal to fear destruction. But if it messes up its own world for an illusory apocalypse, that's just too stupid! "
Xu Shenxing held Rolandur high and shouted at the world rift that he had cut open. "Don't worry, I'll protect you. It's just the [Era of Destruction], see how I'll deal with it when the time comes!"
After that, he whispered softly, "That's right, it has to be dealt with …"
The next moment, as if time had reversed, the planet under their feet returned to its original orbit.
