Soul of Burning Steel

There is gravity between people.

People who love painting will meet other people who love painting, and people who like writing will always meet people who like writing. Even if the extraordinary people stay in the mountains and forests, they will always meet other extraordinary people who happen to pass by. Then they are involved in a series of events, as if there is an invisible force that draws them together.

If this kind of thing happens once or twice, but it has always been like this since ancient times. It has been happening all the time and continues to this day. It can’t help but feel that there is indeed gravitational attraction between people. .

Of course, this is not the case. Most people know that this is not what “gravity” is doing, but the inevitable result after a person enters a certain circle and reaches a certain limit. When a painter wants to improve his own Painting skills naturally look for fellows and pay attention to all matters related to it, and so is writing, not to mention the extraordinary, they are like stars in the middle of the night that cannot be ignored, and because of this, their existence itself It will attract a series of events towards them.

Qiao Xiu had already understood this truth. The strong is like a whirlpool, and the wave called power will roll all the abnormal situations and accidents around him. His words and deeds will profoundly affect everyone around him and produce various follow-up events.

Just like this time, he went to the Sixth Abyss. An ordinary trip caused the destruction of more than a dozen demon territories, the demon lord Helm was seriously injured, and the abyss lord and the five-color dragon **** took action together. When I came to the Abyss of Blood Moon, I encountered a suspected new fire, the life of light, the incarnation of the will of the future world, and got its children. So he knew instinctively that he, who had done so many things, would never be able to return to the Mycroft Continent in peace.

The facts also proved this.

In the void of the world and the world, accompanied by a flash of silver and white, the warrior's figure suddenly disappeared in the eyes of the black, light ball and the two legendary wizards. This process is extremely abrupt, and there is not even the slightest intermediate process. The black dragon girl still Before she could react, she followed the torrent of time and space and crossed the void and returned to the world of Mycroft. When she got rid of the teleported vertigo and stood up from the land of the Great Aas Mountains, where the scent of sulfur is scented, she only With a shocked reaction, his master suddenly disappeared.

"Huh?" "Dinking?"

Just as shocked as Hei were Barnier and William. The two old mages immediately exploded with all their power at the same time as the teleportation was over. I saw that Barnier maintained the existence of the space-time channel. In his righteous eyes Motivated by the surging magical power, his magic circle rapidly rotated, and even formed a spiral shape. The classes and mysteries of time and space were peeled off layer by layer in this seemingly fragile crystal eye. The old mage looked solemnly at every corner of the space-time passage, and the faint blue brilliance followed his gaze and was messed up into a cloud of mist, enough to scorch a large amount of information from the scorched head of an ordinary mage into Banir's brain. After a while, he said solemnly: "He is gone-there is no clue."

"Damn it!" On the side, William also took out his crystal ball. In this pure crystal ball, there was a miniature forest with a carapace, dragon scales and tentacles squirming on the ground, which was sealed by him in the crystal ball. The creeping forest in inner Asian space, and now, with a burst of sharp sounds like glass shattering, the surrounding space has cracked countless gaps, and the next moment, the creeping forest is like this with a large expanse of abyssal rot. The earth appeared out of thin air on the Great Aas Mountains, and then fell heavily to the ground.

The bard also urged the crystal ball in his hand, and the pure and transparent brilliance reflected in the time and space channels, allowing the past scenes to be replayed in the crystal, but even William watched the time replay a dozen times back and forth. Later, he still did not find any clues like Barnier, which made the legendary mage extremely annoyed: "Earl Radcliffe went to the abyss to find us-this was very successful, we came back, but he was missing! Damn, how should we explain to his relatives and leaders?!"

"Don't worry about that in advance."

Just a few seconds after the two legendary wizards used their legendary powers without any concealment, along with the hum of time and space being stirred, a faint blue door appeared naturally in front of everyone, and then, white beard and white The newly promoted legendary mage and the legendary warrior with dark golden shoulder-length hair stepped out of it at the same time. Nostradamus' figure gave a slight stop, making himself half a position behind Israel. His Majesty the Emperor was not modest. He first glanced at the Black Dragon Girl and the ball of light on her head, then scratched his head and looked at Barnier and William. Israel's face was calm, but he was not angry with himself: "Who Can you explain, what is the situation?"

At this time, Joshua didn’t know that because of his whereabouts, the four legendary powerhouses would meet at the same time. If he knew, he would definitely be emotional. This may be the largest number of human legends present at the same time before the seven gods descended. One, you know, even the Battle of the Sacred Mountain is just two human legends, Eagle and Israel.

But now, he didn't know it aside, even if Joshua knew it, he wouldn't be too emotional.

Because the existence that appeared in front of the warrior now was greater than the legendary powerhouse or even the gods.

A silver-white turbulent stream of light whizzed past the warrior's side, standing in the void, Joshua looked up to the top of his head, and what caught his eyes was the magnificent vault cast by countless bright stars, staring at it as if It was like looking at the multiverse itself, and then, Joshua lowered his head, and he looked at the dark void in front of him, where there was a little starlight.

"Long time no see."

Gazing at the faint starlight, Joshua didn’t panic. He just smiled, and then stepped forward, actively approaching the light, and as the warrior moved, the starlight began to grow rapidly and flicker until In the end, it turned into a huge steel python that enveloped the entire void and the sea of ​​stars. Joshua raised his head and said softly: "Steel python Karlis."

On the other end, because the silver scales rubbed against each other, a red fire light was generated. In the twinkling red light, the giant python used its metallic eye pupils to look at Giocia, who was looking up. It was silent for a while. , And then responded in a low and gentle voice: "Long time no see, Soul Burning King of Mycroft World."

The two looked at each other for a while, seeming to be observing each other’s existence, but then, Joshua took the lead and asked, and he said in a relaxed tone: "You look good... the survivors of Grantia are still there with you. Okay?"

"...Of course, those lovely children, and their fire, I found them when I awakened from a long sleep on the verge of destruction. If this is a surprise, then it is really too big."

Faced with Joshua’s ease, Karlis, the steel python, could not respond with the same attitude. It lowered its head slightly, and then said to the soldier in a slow, gentle, and serious tone: "Suppose, I was only expecting order. If the seeds can germinate in a future that I can’t see, now, I’m shocked and delighted to witness the growth of a soul-burning king—the sage’s vision is true, and you may really be his chosen successor.”

Sure enough. In an instant, after hearing so much information, Joshua was not surprised at this, but silently nodded in his heart: The steel python Karlis really has something to do with the sage.

This incident actually had a clue a long time ago. Perhaps many people would ignore those subtle clues, but Joshua would not. He clearly remembered that when he first met Number 3, Miss Artificial Intelligence made it clear that she knew the Azure Orb. The existence of a relic of a sage.

This represents many things. As the last heir to the world of Karlis, since the 3rd knew about the existence of the saints and saints’ relics, then the Wingmen civilization at that time must also know that there were many Wingmen on the Mykrov Continent. They may be Karl. For the immigrants of the world of Liss, the communication between the two worlds is definitely not that simple. The sage must have communicated with the world of Carls at that time.

What was going on at that time? Was it before or after the invasion of Mycroft by the Abyss and Cthulhu? Was it before or after the Karlis civilization was destroyed by the evil **** of famine? Joshua didn’t know, but he guessed that after the invasion of the Cthulhu, the Karlis civilization was close to being destroyed. The historical time obtained from No. 3 is consistent and logical. Otherwise, with the character of a sage, he would definitely be able to To help Karlis clean up the desolate gods, only when facing the attack of multiple evil gods, the sages will consider leaving the heritage relics, and there is no time to help other worlds.

In any case, it was not unexpected that Karlis knew that the sages existed, and Joshua nodded, and then waited for the other party to continue talking.

And the Steel Python didn’t care about the warrior’s speculation. It continued to use that gentle voice to say: “I have witnessed a race from its infancy to its peak, and I have also witnessed a civilization from its peak to its demise.” Speaking of which, Karlis stared at Joshua, his tone of relief and emotion: "But I have never seen an individual life capable of doing what you are."

"Joshua Van Radcliffe, I have learned your name from the remnants of another world. I cannot deny your choice, but I am sincere about your last move. grateful."

Speaking of this, the giant world python actually lowered its huge head, and said with a heavy tone: "The world of Karlis has been destroyed. I should have died completely when all life was extinct, not even the abyss. Become, completely transformed into a ruined world...but because of the flames you produced when you burned the soul of the wild **** at the end of the year, I had a chance to breathe."

A huge light curtain appeared in front of Joshua’s eyes. What unfolded in front of him was a barren dusty plain. The sand and rocks that could not give birth to any life constituted this land. It seemed that chaos and death had already eroded all of this. , Let the whole world fall towards deathly silence,

But in the decayed wind, there are ripples like waves, and in a small corner that the wind can't blow, there are silver-white, steel-like flowers that are quietly blooming.

"That is the kind of fire you left behind. Although it is weak, it has never been extinguished."

The voice of the steel python sounded quietly, and Carliss also watched the light curtain, and the next moment, the scene changed, and it appeared in front of Joshua that the survivors of Grantia were carefully exploring this strange and corrupt world. With the help of Chongshan Titan Urbani, these poor people who have been struggling for decades in the apocalypse can finally live safely in the wilderness, instead of shrinking like a timid hamster at night. At home, dare not go out. Their footsteps have gradually spread, and now they have even stretched to the frozen seashore of Karlis, and along the way, there are mountains and plains, silver flowers and grass dancing in the wind.

Seeing these strong but fragile flowers, Qiao Xiuya was stunned for a moment, and then showed a gratifying smile. He once thought he had done nothing, but now it seems that he has achieved something.

Then, the soldier turned his head to look at those who were exploring the world.

For the survivors of the Grandia world, they did not know that they had experienced the destruction of a world and the migration of a race, but in any case, the aftermath of the huge impact brought by the change of living environment has not completely dissipated until today.

Because the shadows of death disappeared, the fog that enveloped the entire world completely dissipated, and various plants and animals began to multiply on the earth. These survivors began to rejoice around the original four holy cities, and built one in the wilderness. In another village, under the guidance of several old city owners who have preserved most of the cultural heritage, these remnants who had almost degenerated into primitives due to environmental factors began to rapidly transform the surrounding natural environment. Cultivated land and small workshops have appeared in the corners of villages and towns. Many young people have begun to enter the school under the guidance of the old survivors, and begin to learn the knowledge that their ancestors were proud of.

In addition, in every corner of the world, there are the remnants of Grantia. They are walking in the harshest environment with simple tools and rough dry food. These pioneers explore the sandy plains and ruins. Everything, and was surprised to find one after another giant remnants of the world civilization of Karlis-huge fortress remains, broken mobile cities and divine machine fragments all over the world. Some smart people among them have gradually realized that they may not be in the land where they once lived, but in another world with wisdom and civilization.

"You brought me a new kind of fire, a new life of wisdom... They reawakened me. Now, they are not my children, but one day, they will be my children."

Speaking slurred words, Karlis closed the light curtain. It turned its head and said softly: "You saved two worlds at the same time. Even God can't do better."

"Thank you for your compliment."

Slightly bent over to express his gratitude. After seeing that Grantia’s survivor’s life was pretty good, Joshua felt very excited, but he was not subject to the steel pythons. The soldier asked with some doubts: "However, did you stop me here just to express your gratitude to me?"

If I can, I want to go back soon. Hotaru and Rin, No. 3 and Hei will be worried. He didn't say this sentence.

"Of course not. This time I intercepted you in the torrent of time and space for a more important thing."

The huge head shook, and even the dome of the sea of ​​stars was also shaken. The Steel Python denied Joshua’s doubts. Its eyes became solemn and its voice became low. Karlis paused for a while before he said a word. After a while, he said, "It's related to the evil god."
