The frozen light instantly regained its flow.
Under the new influx of sunlight, the Oracle's invisible hand that grabbed Zero was no longer indestructible. Instead, it twisted and softened like a bubble. A dazzling blue light descended from the sky, replacing the weak silver light that the little girl used to resist. Without the interference of God, even if the other party was a newly awakened consciousness, it was no longer easy to win.
At the same time, two new figures rushed into the sealed domain.
It did not find Epsilon, but saw another target that needed to be eliminated.
It was also the main creator of this world, Roland.
Delta raised his other hand and fiercely smashed it down towards his opponent.
But this attack did not even raise a speck of dust.
Before it even touched him, the power disappeared, as though it had never existed.
To a martial artist who was sprinting at full speed, a distance of a few hundred meters was but a split second. Before Delta could react, Roland crushed its mask and grabbed the astrolabe.
No matter how hard it struggled, it could not escape from Roland's grasp. If its ability was greatly weakened in front of Zero, it was almost completely ineffective in front of Roland.
"This isn't fair —!"
Its consciousness began to dissipate as the astrolabe was stripped away.
But Roland was unmoved. He knew that regardless of whether it was a pure magic creature or an enemy from the Erosion, their weakness was the rotating astrolabe in their bodies. As long as it was forcefully pulled out, they would melt like snow under the scorching sun.
The power in his body was cheering, as though it was welcoming the arrival of that moment.
Until now, Roland still had not figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
Less than half a minute after separating from Valkries, he received a call from Fei Yuhan. But there were no words from the other side. The only thing he could hear was the ear-piercing sound of collision and friction. When the call was cut off, he saw through the sightseeing elevator that something had happened in the outskirts of the city.
A strange translucent barrier had enveloped the highway bridge that connected the city to the outskirts. This was definitely not something that could be done with technology. Furthermore, a phenomenon that could cause a celebrity martial artist to be unable to explain the situation was definitely not a trivial matter.
After he drove out of the underground garage, he coincidentally met Valkries who was running in the same direction, so he picked her up.
However, he did not expect to find Zero inside after breaking the "cover".
As for the strange man in the long robe and mask, he was obviously one of the Oracles.
Therefore, even if he had not figured out the ins and outs of the situation, he would not hesitate to kill the Oracle first. The Association had been searching for the whereabouts of these invading enemies, but they had never found any reliable clues. Now that they had appeared in front of him and even tried to kill Zero, he would not let go of this opportunity.
The moment the astrolabe was completely stripped off, a resplendent pillar of light soared into the sky and enveloped him!
Sure enough, this familiar scene appeared again.
"Uncle Roland!"
From the corner of his eye, he saw Zero's tear-stained face.
He made a reassuring gesture, and the radiance that filled the sky swallowed everything.
Compared to the last time when he was caught off guard, Roland was more or less prepared this time. He no longer deliberately resisted the influx of consciousness, but opened his mind, allowing himself to accept and feel them —
After all, it was useless no matter how much he resisted.
It was better to relax and focus on the surging consciousness.
"Hiss … hiss …"
His vision quickly became blurred, and countless snowflakes flew up and down, forming a black and white scene.
Along with the snowflakes, Lan's whisper also appeared.
"Compared to what I told you, what you personally understood is the real answer. "
…
After an unknown amount of time, the light gradually dimmed, and he finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.
This is …
Roland could not help but swallow his saliva. He saw a huge red hole hanging in a boundless, pitch-black void — it had no thickness, but it was shockingly wide. From his position, the size of the hole could only be measured in astronomical units.
Further away, there were countless flashing spots of light. They blended together with the snowflakes, and he could not tell whether they were real or just an illusion caused by a blurry image.
In Roland's memory, there was only one thing that could match this scene.
— The darkness did not mean that there was no light, and the void did not mean that there was nothing. It was just that it was too big.
Those flickering spots of light were something that ordinary people would find hard to count in their entire lives, but they were an insignificant part of it.
'Universe'.
This span … is really unexpected.
Roland could not help but criticize.
He originally thought that seeing the legendary Bottomless Land for the first time was already shocking enough, but he never expected that not only did his vision not shrink, but it had expanded to a whole new level.
The problem was, if the scene he was seeing was the universe he understood, what was the connection between the two scenes? Could it be that the civilizations that 'rode' the Bottomless Land's pillar of light to head to the sky were actually sent into space? If that was the case, the word 'upgrade' was rather suitable. But be it the Radiation race or the matchstick men, they did not seem like species that could survive in a completely different environment.
Since flames and sharp weapons could injure them, it meant that their resistance to temperature and pressure was not much stronger than humans. But when the 'upgrade' happened, the Radiation race that stepped into the pillar of light did not seem to have made the necessary preparations.
No … That's not right. He quickly rejected this guess. Such an explanation was too far-fetched. It was purely a conjecture that forcefully linked the two scenes together. Ignoring everything else, it was hard to explain why the god that guided all of this would do such a meaningless thing. Be it the endless Battle of Divine Will or the legacy shard that brought about evolution, it did not seem like it was prepared for such a scene.
There had to be a deeper meaning behind it.
Suddenly, Roland noticed that something was squirming beneath the red hole.
As though influenced by his thoughts, his vision began to zoom in on the location of the movement. Only then did he notice that there were many scattered meteorites floating beneath the hole. They looked like the scattered fragments of a planet, but it also seemed as though they had always been so. At first glance, it looked like a desolate ruin. With his knowledge, it was difficult to determine where these things came from.
And these fragments seemed to be drawn by some force as they gradually gathered towards a special stone in the middle. As more and more fragments piled up, the volume of the stone became larger and larger. Every time a new fragment was absorbed, the surface would change drastically. At this moment, Roland suddenly realized that although these floating stones looked small and scattered, each one of them could not be underestimated. That was why this gathering was so earth-shattering.
Similarly, without any reference, the whole process seemed to be very fast, but the actual time span was probably even more astonishing than he had imagined.
As if to prove this idea, the snowflakes began to become denser.
This scene seemed to be coming to an end.
Amidst the noise that filled his field of vision, the stone had gradually formed into an irregular sphere. Then, he saw an incredible scene — a layer of diamond-shaped veins suddenly appeared and spread along the surface of the sphere. Everywhere it went was hidden in darkness, as if it was swallowing the sphere. If it were not for the faint reflection, he would have thought that the stone just disappeared in front of him.
When it was completely wrapped up, the sphere was completely hidden under the huge red hole.
Then, snowflakes occupied his entire field of vision.
Just before everything ended, a line of words that he had never seen before flowed into Roland's mind.
Although he had never seen it before, he could understand its meaning.
Or rather, it was not words, but a sigh that was directly reflected in his mind.
[This is the price. ]
[From this moment on, gravity is no longer the most admirable force in this world. ]
