How was the Godslayer made? What kind of being did the "person" who made it? How did that evil force control a race with a sword, and finally achieve the incredible feat of assassinating a true god?
These were the ultimate questions that Hao Ren was most concerned about at the moment.
And now, he seemed to have finally come into contact with the tip of the iceberg. In front of him floated the raw material used to forge the Godslayer. Not only did the raw material maintain its form before it became a blade, but it also had the aura of the ancient demon's main body!
Raven 12345's finger waved gently in the air, and the black "cosmic fragment" floated in front of her. It was being pulled by an invisible force and slowly rotated. The starlight on the fragment moved against the black background, as if a real cosmic sky was hidden within it.
Beside her, Hao Ren had already taken out the Godslayer from his dimensional pocket. The dark longsword was also floating in the air, and the surface of the blade had the same light and shadow as the dark cosmic fragment.
"From the outside, there is almost no difference between the two materials." Hao Ren rubbed his chin. "How can you tell that this fragment is semi-finished?"
"Because it is not stable enough." Raven 12345 leaned back and raised a finger to point at the cosmic fragment. "They are all fragments of the universe, but the structure of the Godslayer is completely solidified. It will not decay, nor will it disintegrate internally. But this fragment … you can't see it, but I can see that it is constantly 'evaporating'. The amount of information in this thing is flowing at a constant rate, and the structure of the galaxy inside it is gradually falling into chaos. This means that it is not a finished product. If this is not raw material that has not been processed, then it is a defective product that failed in the process of making the Godslayer. "
The Godslayer circled in the air and looked curiously at the floating fragment beside it. It greeted enthusiastically, "Hey, buddy, you are also floating? I am the Godslayer, you can call me Householder Stabber … "
"And this fragment does not have the ability to 'echo wall'," Hao Ren said as he nodded. "That means it cannot think, nor can it respond to external stimuli. In comparison, the Godslayer is indeed much more advanced."
The Godslayer also realized that its greeting did not get a response. It shook its body regretfully. "Tsk, poor little deaf and blind."
Raven 12345 couldn't help but glance at Hao Ren. "Tell me the truth. Has the sword been talking more and more ever since it's with you?"
Hao Ren: "… Ahem."
Vivian frowned. Her eyes wandered between the Godslayer and the cosmic fragment. "But the negative energy on this half-finished product is even purer than the Godslayer. What's going on?"
"Because the Godslayer is a weapon that needs to be handed over to the mortal race. It needs to deceive its first batch of sword-bearers and subtly influence them to fall into depravity. So it has to disguise itself as an ordinary divine weapon. The evil and negative energy must have been dealt with." Raven 12345 did not look suspicious. "But this fragment is different. It is most likely an 'experimental product' before the Godslayer was forged. It is normal to have anything left on it."
Vivian asked curiously, "Can you analyze anything from this remnant aura?"
As soon as the question was asked, Hao Ren's breathing became heavy. He realized that a huge secret was about to be revealed.
"A thing that is infinitely close to a true god." Raven 12345 nodded. She had indeed seen through the remnant aura on the fragment. "Powerful 'creatures' like this are occasionally born in the primeval universe. Sometimes they can't even be called 'creatures' because these chaotic existences seriously lack logic. They don't even have biological instincts. Most of the time, they 'exist' blindly, stirring up the order of the entire world without any purpose. These powerful and ancient things are often by-products of the early evolution of the universe. Because the void is endless, there will naturally be countless worlds living and dying in it. With an infinite base, anything can happen. Therefore, it is not impossible for the primeval matter in the early universe to give birth to a chaotic intelligence. These things are usually extremely powerful because they themselves are the condensation of the original power of the universe. So they can even be seen as the embodiment of the will of the universe. But they are still not true gods because they cannot draw power from the void outside the universe, nor can they obtain the vital 'symbolic authority'. After jumping out of the universe, they are nothing. "
Hao Ren was a little confused, but he finally understood this abstract thing and instantly linked it to the goddess of creation. "For a half-baked god who does not understand the power of the universe, this is an extremely terrifying opponent."
"Yes, an extremely terrifying opponent. But there is one thing I don't quite understand …" Raven 12345 nodded, but there was a puzzled look on her face. It was not easy for her to show such an expression. "If it is really the 'primeval chaos' that I think it is, it is unlikely that it could have forged this sword."
"Why is that?" Hao Ren was startled.
"Because they are not fake, and they cannot even perceive and understand the real material world." Raven 12345's eyes were flashing with arcane starlight. She was thinking seriously. "As I said, they only exist blindly — stupid, chaotic, blind, noisy. They were born in the flood of information at the birth of the universe, and were soon bound by the cooling and stable space-time structure after the universe stabilized. These blind and stupid things will instinctively struggle in this situation, trying to make the surrounding space-time that has fallen into order return to the primeval chaos. But limited by their own form of existence, their influence on the real material world will always be a little bit off. They can stir up the order of the world, but they cannot change the fact that space-time is getting more and more stable. Until the end of billions of years, when the entropy value reaches the critical point, the world will return to chaos, and then they can get what they want. And in the process, they are always blind. "
Hao Ren felt that this topic was getting more and more difficult, but he still tried to keep up with Raven 12345's thoughts and speculated what kind of existence the 'primeval chaos' should be. He had discussed this issue with the goddess last time and hypothesized the existence form of the mastermind. At that time, they hypothesized that it was a powerful existence that was invisible and similar to a spiritual creature. But obviously, the 'primeval chaos' was much more advanced than any spiritual creature. Hao Ren had to raise his vigilance against the mastermind again.
However, the strange thing was that he didn't feel nervous at all. Even if the enemy was becoming more and more strange and powerful, he still didn't feel any worry or fear for his future burden, as if this was his natural mission.
"Because it was born in the primordial chaos of the universe, it couldn't understand or adapt to low-energy matter and space-time. The material world, which was stable and comfortable for most ordinary people, was a prison with thin energy, empty, and bone-chilling coldness for this creature at the beginning of time. They should have died in the first few flashes of the universe, but they did not, so they became a kind of disaster. "Raven 12345 shook her head slightly." In fact, even I have not seen such a thing with my own eyes because they are too rare, and those that can evolve into natural disasters are even rarer. In most cases, these things do not have the time to cause harm, because the army of the Protoss will quickly clean up these hidden dangers, transform them, or destroy them. "
At this moment, Hao Ren finally understood why Raven 12345 said that "it was unlikely that it could make this sword."
Because a 'Child of Chaos' that was incompatible with the material world, born from chaos and illogic, would not make a weapon. It might not even make any strategy or plan at all.
The power of the fragment came from the primeval chaos, but the forger of the Godslayer was definitely not this Child of Chaos.
"Is there a third force?" Hao Ren's brows knit together. "This is not even a third force. How many has it been?"
"Everything is speculation at present," Raven 12345 interrupted Hao Ren. "Don't jump to conclusions without solid evidence."
Hao Ren nodded. "Well, I know. One more thing, this scepter has dispelled the innate hostility between the demon hunters and Hercules. What do you think about this? "
Raven 12345 threw the fragment to Hao Ren. "This probably has nothing to do with this cosmic fragment, but the power of the scepter crystal. Vivian would reach the peak of her power before she fell asleep. She would be infinitely close to her original form, which was the divine blood. The scepter she made under such circumstances was very likely to be infused with this power, the secondary power of the goddess of creation. It is this power that can seal the evil energy in the fragment, and it is this power that can dispel the effect of the innate hostility. Unfortunately, the crystal has completely dried up, leaving no evidence. Otherwise, I can verify my speculation. "
Hao Ren hurriedly caught the thing that the goddess threw to him. He broke out in a cold sweat, but the fragment did not cause any discomfort. He looked down in surprise and found that the fragment was lying quietly in his hand, exuding the same peaceful and tranquil aura as the Godslayer.
"It has been purified," Raven 12345 said with a sly smile. "Keep it. It's useless to me anyway."
Hao Ren thought for a moment and asked, "Don't you want to take a bite this time?"
Raven 12345 waved her hand. "It's too small, not easy to bite."
The Godslayer floated next to her, with the bite mark left by the goddess on the blade. It was confused. "What bite?"
The poor guy still did not know that a piece of his head had been bitten off.
