Surprises always came inadvertently. Hao Ren did not expect to hear such exciting news after establishing a connection with Yggdrasil. At that time, he realized that he seemed to have finally come into contact with the ultimate secret of the mass transmigration 10,000 years ago.
"You said that the goddess of creation ordered you to cross the Wall of Reality?" Hao Ren tried to control the excitement in his voice, but in fact, it was just a psychological effect. Under the direct mental connection, it was difficult for him to hide his excitement, at least he could not hide it now.
"Of course, that's what I said just now," Yggdrasil replied. "You sound … excited?"
"I have been investigating this matter. Ten thousand years ago, a large number of races from another universe entered my home world, which is on this side of the wall. What happened at that time?"
Yggdrasil did not answer immediately this time. Instead, he asked, "How do I know that you can be trusted?"
Hao Ren was startled. Then he remembered that he had a witness on his side. "Oh, you should know Ymir, right? He is your brother. He is on my side now. And he should have talked to you before. Don't you know? "
"Ymir … Ah, of course I know, my brother. But I can't hear the sound coming from the outside. I am in such a bad state … To tell you the truth, you are the only person I have talked to for so many years. But I dare not fully trust you, strange demigod … I know Ymir's state. The pollution has affected his memory. He may not remember his mission and origin, so he can't prove that you are reliable … "Yggdrasil said. Suddenly, there was a strange rumbling noise in his voice. At the same time, there was a strange storm on the dark sea. The storm was strange and terrible. The entire sea began to surge upward as if the gravity was out of balance. Walls of water rose from the inky black sea, and these walls of water climbed slowly and twisted into the sky. Large whirlpools appeared on the turbulent sea below, and countless intertwined tentacles appeared under the whirlpools.
"Oh, strange demigod. Wait a minute, I have to deal with some trouble …"
Yggdrasil's voice came from all directions with severe distortion. Then the entire dark sea set off a violent storm. The deafening roar almost shook Hao Ren's spiritual body out of this world. After the storm, the sea finally fell from the sky again.
Of course, Hao Ren could guess that this spectacular phenomenon had something to do with the two constantly fighting brains in the real world. "What happened to you? Your spiritual world … Is it the corrupted brain that turned this place into this? "
"Ah, you are right. It is indeed the brain of the lesion that has turned this place into this," Yggdrasil rumbled. "But you seem to be mistaken about one thing. I am the one with the lesion."
In the first three seconds, Hao Ren could not react at all.
Three seconds later, he let out a strange cry. "What?!"
"I am the corrupted one," Yggdrasil replied in a deafening voice. "Ah, you don't have to describe what I have become. Anyway, I'm sure I'm not much better. I'm all rotten. Or half rotten? Almost the same. I guess you and your friends must have done something to my nerve centers. I can't feel any of them … And my 1768th tentacle is a little numb … "
Hao Ren listened to it in a daze. He subconsciously muttered, "I gave you half a ton of tranquilizer and then cut your skull open …"
"Oh, thank you, you are so kind."
"Wait a minute!" Hao Ren finally reacted. "You are the consciousness in the completely diseased brain? Then are you Yggdrasil or something else? Are you crazy or sane now? What was up with the other healthy brain nucleus? What about the rest of your brain? "
"Too many questions, too many questions …" Yggdrasil rumbled. "Of course, I am me. Ah, of course, there is a slight problem. I am afraid I am not completely me. But I think at least for now, I am not crazy, right? As for the other one … "
Yggdrasil suddenly stopped. While Hao Ren was puzzled, he saw a beam of light floating up from the dark sea.
The beam of light was getting stronger and more tangible. It pierced through the dark sea and formed a light pillar hundreds of meters wide between heaven and earth. Inside the light pillar, Hao Ren vaguely saw a constantly changing shadow. This shadow was the same as what he saw when he had a direct spiritual connection with Zorm.
He instantly guessed what the shadow represented.
"You are out! You are out! " The thorny mountain under Hao Ren's feet suddenly shook. Yggdrasil, the self-proclaimed corrupted one, let out a loud cry. "You bastard, you finally came out! You finally know what you should do! Are you here to fight? Come on, come on, I will accompany you to complete your design mission. From now on, you are Yggdrasil! "
After learning that the Mountain of Thorns was the consciousness projection of the decayed and diseased brain, Hao Ren finally vaguely guessed something after listening to the other party's curses.
Facing the loud cry of the thorny mountain, the beam of light was unmoved. It just stood quietly between heaven and earth, and the sea of darkness around it quickly calmed down. After a while, it said in a gentle voice, "You are just running away from your fate. I will not carry out your absurd plan."
"I am running away from my fate?" Yggdrasil was furious. "My fate is to die here! I am going to face it! Who do you think gave you the ability to think? I asked you to think so that you can come up with a perfect plan of annihilation, not to discuss the feasibility of the plan with me! "
The voice in the light was still calm. "Death is an escape. You and I have a mission. We bear the responsibility of maintaining the Ultimate Absolution. You cannot leave alone."
"Idiot! As long as our runic bodies are alive, it is enough. Why do you care if I die or not? "
Hao Ren listened to the deafening quarrel between heaven and earth. Yggdrasil quarreled with himself. A lot of conjectures popped up in his mind. Finally, he could not help but interrupt. "Wait a minute! Who can explain to me what is going on? Yggdrasil, the sick one, can you tell me what is going on? "
"Are you interested? Well, it doesn't matter if I tell you. "The thorny mountain looked very rough and unrestrained. Of course, Hao Ren now suspected that it was because of his serious illness that he was different from the ordinary First Born." You are not a fool, so you must have seen that I am contaminated. I am diseased, rotting, and turning into something terrible that I dare not even imagine. I have no control over this process. The contamination started 10,000 years ago. Just when I passed through the wall, something hidden in my soul, or something else … Anyway, it made me delirious and dizzy. The situation has been deteriorating, and you don't have to know the process. In the end, I think I am going to die. I am not a weak guy. I have tried all kinds of ways to heal myself, but there is really no way. So I have accepted my fate and prepared to die. But there is a problem … "
Yggdrasil paused as if he was once again suppressing a negative force in his soul that was about to go out of control. He then continued, "I have a mission. My mother gave me a mission. She engraved this mission on my body, so I cannot die. Otherwise, the runic body will be damaged. So I created him. You see now, this disobedient stupid thing."
Hao Ren felt that his guess was probably right. "So that healthy brain nucleus was created by you after you were corrupted? So that it could kill you, the 'diseased organ'? "
It was not the corrupted brain nucleus that was eroding the healthy body. On the contrary, it was the corrupted brain nucleus that was preventing the disease from worsening. It was trying to kill itself!
"You are very smart, that's it." Yggdrasil confirmed Hao Ren's guess. "The corruption made me unable to kill myself, so I had to create another set of thinking organs to replace myself. This method was effective at first. I was soon destroyed to the last node, and the 'backup' I created grew rapidly. But damn it, here is the problem: he grew too fast! Before I was completely dead, he had too many ideas, but they were not clever enough. Now he refused to carry out the last step, but kept me trapped in this place, hoping to drag it out, as if there would be a change in the situation if he dragged it out! Ha, this is really … Wait a minute! "
Yggdrasil suddenly stopped halfway and then suddenly realized something. "You, you strange guy, you claim to be a demigod? Ah, I can indeed feel a similar aura from you … Great! So your power is equally strong! Quick, I will tell you where my weakness is. Can you help me … kill me? "
