Soul of Burning Steel

?

Holding the fire in his hand, Joshua's red eyes looked directly at the source of the light, and he looked at the faint flame seriously, as if it was reflecting everything in the world.

Joshua's body and will, led by this firelight, went to the depths of the world.

He originally thought that this was the spontaneous action of the Azure Orb, just like the inheritance mission he had experienced in his previous life. The relic of this sage will be tested or tested in a mysterious place, and then given to him. An advanced inheritance is just like the one in the family cemetery.

But he was wrong.

The endless stream of light, like a river, surrounds the warrior's body, leading Joshua across a certain inexplicable boundary, allowing him to see the "world".

Although he said that he was watching, in fact, Joshua was using the spirit to'feel'. Numerous information poured directly into the warrior's brain, which made him feel that the world he had observed with his eyes was so superficial and real. How complicated and exciting the world is.

He felt it.

A will.

It is the soul that has enveloped the entire world and carried the mind of all things. Since the heavens and the earth appeared in the void, they have always existed and will exist forever.

This great mind is leading him, spreading along the veins of all things.

The long river of time flows by Joshua's side, and countless ghost images overlap each other, and countless pictures form a flowing image.

Joshua saw it.

He saw the jumbled veins under the earth.

He saw the countless ore vein rocks that had been exhausted and decayed and turned into dust.

He saw the remains of cities thousands of years ago and the remains of all living creatures in the depths of the earth.

He saw the core of the earth, the black clouds covering the surface, and the cold wind surrounding the seas. He saw the structure of the world, the blueprint for creation, everything, everything that exists.

He also saw the evil existence that invaded from the void, deeply rooted in the flesh and blood of the earth, using weird crystals as tentacles, constantly wriggling and expanding his territory.

He saw that the chaotic context had been deeply cut into the flesh and blood of ‘him’, eroding his core, corroding the world, and turning it into a barren famine world.

Joshua was led here, he was watching all this, and in his eyes, he seemed to be able to see the illusion of the future.

The world began to collapse under the erosion of evil.

The water dries up and condenses, and time and space fall into a static state.

The wind stopped flowing, and the magic and elements dissipated.

The earth is distorted and collapsed, and the earth and all things are turned into nothingness.

The fire was completely extinguished, and all existence returned to chaos.

Finally, when the illusion was over, Joshua came back to his senses. Only then did he realize that the river of light that had brought him here had reached the end, and the turbulent stream of light whizzed past Joshua’s side. But not leading him forward.

Joshua stood in the dark void. He raised his head and saw the vault forged by the stars. Behind him, the cessation river of time (the past), and in front of him, the infinite void is facing Extending from afar (in the future).

What is this place?

What did I just see?

Joshua couldn't help but stunned when he recovered. He frowned and circled around, only to find that the surrounding scene was constantly changing, as if it was changing with his observation.

"Here is the inside of the world."

And as if he could hear Joshua’s heartfelt voice, a voice emerged from the void. It was low, a little hoarse, but very gentle. The voice was a little fuzzy at first, but gradually became clear: "And what you saw before was The past of this world, and the coming future."

Qiao Xiu looked around, but did not find the person making the sound, but after a while, he noticed that a small dot appeared in the distant void.

This small spot was originally like a faint star in the sky, almost invisible, but it quickly grew bigger and flickered, and finally, under Joshua’s shocked gaze, it turned into a giant silver python like a planet, and it twisted. With the body, the steel-like scales rubbed against each other, splashing red flames, while the silver pupils stared at Joshua with a hint of curiosity.

Seeing this shocking scene, Joshua couldn't help but shook her head to calm herself down.

No matter who the other party is, it did not show any malice at this time, and it could communicate. The situation was not bad. The soldier took a light breath and then said, "Excuse me, where is this place?"

And what are you?

Although he didn't speak, the giant python, which was so huge that it was impossible to see the end, seemed to know what Joshua was thinking. It calmly replied, "This is the inside of the world."

"And I, it is the world you are in, the manifested will, you can call me,'Carliss the Steel Python'."

After a moment of silence, Joshua quickly accepted this setting.

In the fantasy world, there is nothing wrong with the appearance of the incarnation of the will of the world. There are true gods in the Mykrov Continent. What's more, it is said that the first **** in the world is the world itself. This is not shocking news.

But he was still a little strange, why the will of the world would appear in front of him-in front of an ordinary warrior who is now only a gold rank.

So Qiao Xiu asked directly: "So... why did you bring me here? Why did you show up?"

"Because of fire."

A low and gentle voice echoed in the void, and the huge steel python slowly hovered. He watched Joshua and the faint firelight in his hand, and said: "I was sleeping and was about to die because of watching It was the emergence of fire, that's why I woke up and came here.

"So, are you here because of this fire?"

Qiao Xiu raised the cyan crystal in his hand, and the faint light of fire burned slightly in it. He looked calm and didn't mind the peer's peeping.

"No."

The Steel Python is very peaceful, but what he said was beyond the warrior's expectation: "Although I awakened from the sudden light, I have nothing to do with your fire."

He stared at Joshua quietly, as if he was more interesting than fire, and the steel python said with great interest: "With your fire, what can we do?"

He didn’t have any reason to deceive, he just stated his own thoughts: "My children have all died, their rotten corpses are now in my body, even if you spread the fire, let me continue to live for a thousand years, I I can't give birth to a second civilization and ignite my own flame again."

At this point, the steel python seemed to laugh at himself.

But after hearing this sentence, Joshua felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, and frowned: "No, if all lives are your children, then your children have not all died."

He raised his head, staring at the will of the world like a planet, and said in a deep voice: "No. 3, an artificial intelligence, she also exists. She has been driving in the deserted wilderness for thousands of years, keeping your only remaining fire."

"…maybe."

After a moment of silence, the steel python said softly: "If it was a thousand years ago, I would directly ask for it. If it was hundreds of years ago, I would probably intend to trade this kind of fire to you, but now, I will not let you have anything. loss."

He watched Joshua’s gaze and became more and more interested: "Young man, you can actually have such a quality power of order...this is the best way to fight chaos."

"I know that you are from another world, but it doesn't matter. You have many questions in your heart... Just ask. As a reward for resuscitating me, I can answer your questions."

"Cthulhu."

After thinking for a while, Joshua asked firmly: "The cause of everything is the invasion of evil gods. What are their sources and purposes?"

The question was sent, but there was no immediate answer. There was silence for a while, the body of the steel python squirmed in the void, and the answer was sent shortly after.

"The God of Desolation, Crystal Insect Ulmades, Son of Famine... Their world began with the fire in the forest, and the flames of civilization burned among the swamps and forests. As a person who has experienced thousands of years, it has finally developed to be able to enter and exit the void civilization Civilization, they swear to pass their flames to other worlds."

"But, just as there are islands in the world that are lonely overseas, sadly they haven't found other worlds in ten thousand years."

"They are located in a world of embers without fire, and they can develop civilization, which is a miracle among miracles, but this time, there is no miracle."

When the Steel Python said this passage, it seemed to be with a touch of sadness: "Civilization has reached its limit and all resources have been exhausted, but they still cannot find another world in the star realm. Civilization has begun to regress, and gradually, They will no longer be able to enter or leave the star realm."

"Under the pressure of increasingly tense resources, they ate their own world-they hollowed out the soil and rocks, and really consumed all the materials. They hollowed out the earth, carefully used energy, and maintained the cycle as much as possible. Until a thousand years, ten thousand years, the perpetual calamity of sinking."

The huge body surrounds the river of time, and the steel python's gaze is looking directly at Joshua who is thinking, his voice is hoarse and low: "In the beginning, there were billions of people, and then tens of millions, 100,000, A thousand people, a hundred people, ten people, one person."

"Until the last person died in endless loneliness and hunger, the fire of their civilization finally lost its fuelwood and extinguished in pain and despair."

"And the world, in this desperate pain, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is also distorted."

The narration of the Steel Python is nearing its end.

"The world will also move its position. After not knowing how long, a world that has developed magic technology will come into contact with the remains of this world in the endless exploration of the void."

"And the **** of sad famine was born."

Karlis’s world will bowed his head and hovered most of the body covered by the void: “As for the purpose of the evil gods, no one knows, but they will only bring despair, pain, famine, war, plague, and death. , There is no doubt about it."

He looked directly at Joshua's eyes and said calmly: "I am Karlis, the python of steel."

"Descent of Steel, after knowing all this, are you willing to become the guardian of the world, drive chaos away, and guard the frontiers of order?"

And Joshua was thinking.

After a moment: "I refuse."
