Soul of Burning Steel

In star pendant 837, June 20th, the common grumbles of the maids came from the Moldavian Lord's Mansion.

"Master, you haven't taken us to a serious battle for almost two or three years..."

Near the portal on the top floor of the Lord's Mansion, Hotaru stretched out, and the girl looked bored at Joshua, who was about to pass through the portal, and whispered: "Okay, I know you are too strong to need weapons anymore. …"

"This time the master is going to a very distant world to assist the steel python...Don't talk about us, even if it is Master Nostradamus, the master did not invite it."

On the side, Rin was rather helpless to explain to the silver-haired girl. Compared with Hotaru who is obsessed with his own "weapon" status, he has no obsession with this aspect. Whether it is dealing with government affairs, managing the size of the lord’s house and outside, or managing the industrial planning of the Radcliffe family, he thinks of fighting. There is no difference between them, they are all things that can help the owner.

"But you let us stay at home, always feel so useless."

Some unwilling fireflies murmured softly. She knew that this journey to another world might be dangerous and dangerous. After all, this is a problem that even the will of the world cannot solve and requires other powerful foreign aid to deal with it, but she is not afraid Dangerous, she only feared that she was useless to Joshua, so that she had no existential value.

No. 3 and the black with the little light are talking softly on the side. The artificial intelligence girl who has talked to Joshua a long time ago seems to be saying something that scares the black dragon-like the mandatory daily use of ice Magical awakening, five hundred kilometers flight training before breakfast, etc... This is what Joshua entrusted to No. 3 in order to ensure that Hei can exercise normally when he goes to another world. After all, if Hei really falls into a deep sleep, It is not a simple matter to wake him up.

"If you really want to explore with me."

At the same time, Joshua, who was about to cross the portal, turned his head. He looked at Firefly and Rin who stayed in place, with a subtle light flashing in his calm eyes. The soldier said softly, "Then become stronger. a little."

"Firefly, Rin, and No. 3 and Hei, your talents are all very high, you have a natural psychic body, a first-class alchemy creation of an artificial fairy, and an artificial soul in the world of Karlis, with an ancient dragon bloodline. Heilong...With the mass-to-spirit transformation equation and the inheritance left by me, your progress should be more than ten times faster than ordinary people—in fact, don’t you already have a gold rank in Hotaru? If one day, your human form If his strength has reached the middle level of Jiyi, then it should be able to keep up with me."

Joshua never liked walking alone at the forefront of the world. He always hoped that someone could keep up with him... but he would never slow down his speed for this. He was very pleased to be able to keep up.

Because of the inheritance of the gods and the transformation equation between quality and spirit, the strength of No. 3 has improved rapidly, so there is no need to worry, and if Hotaru, Rin, and Hei want to get rid of their embarrassing position, they will choose to give up or grit their teeth and transcend. Ordinary people worked ten times harder to catch up with his shadow.

"Don't worry about me, I think this exploration should not be difficult."

Turning around, Joshua once again crossed the portal. With his back to everyone, Joshua said calmly: "According to Karlis, this should be a small world, and it won't take long."

"Come on, my weapon."

After the words were finished, accompanied by a burst of faint blue light like the waves of the ocean, the soldier entered the space-time channel and disappeared.

The people who bid farewell also left one by one, whether it was fireflies or rin, whether it was black or light, even No. 3 seemed more silent than before. Qiao Xiuya's words didn't have much modification, they were very real. They were all thinking about how to approach their master at this time.

In any case, living in the home of a strong man is really hard work.

But at this moment, in the study room on the second floor of the Lord's Mansion, with a trace of holy light flowing, a flat and white letter paper was slowly incorporated into a small circle next to the desk.

The material of this letter paper is exquisite, and it can be seen that it comes from a place with a very high level of craftsmanship. It is not wrapped in an envelope, but there is a layer of holy light covering its outside. At this time, the holy light is quickly dissipating, and the white paper As a result, the text gradually emerged.

[To my friend, Earl Radcliffe]

The first page of the letter can be seen, and it is the only page.

"My friend, your view of the soul and the ultimate meaning of the soul shocks me quite a bit."

This is a letter. The writer’s handwriting is beautiful and ancient, with the Siamese style of the last century. His handwriting is very similar to the standard strokes commonly used in the Far South... But if you look at it for yourself, it is not so much he The writing is like a standard brushwork, it is better to say that the standard brushwork is based on him. At this time, the person who defined the standard seemed quite surprised, so that the handwriting was a little floating: "denying the innate nature of the soul, emphasizing the relationship between the soul and the body, this can be said to propose a new idea for the study of the soul. , Your contribution is very big. If possible, I would like to organize your letters and publish them in the official academic journals of Sacred Mountain."

"At the same time, I think I also need to explain to you the results obtained by the Seven Sacred Mountains in observing souls for so many years, as well as the relationship between the circulation of souls in the population and the world in which we live, and how they are related. What's going on."

Having said that, the excited handwriting has calmed down, as if the writer has recovered his calm at this time. He wrote seriously and seriously: "First of all, I must tell you this, that is, the world is actually receiving from the void all the time. energy of."

"Void rays, time and space fluctuations, external energy waves... Before the arrival of the Great Demon Tide, every world actually received a large amount of energy from the Void, but these energies are only a flash in the pan. They will quickly pass through our world, even the Great Demon. The same is true for the tide. If the Great Demon Tide is not for the constant eruption, then it is just a glimpse of us."

"Nothing can retain these energy waves that seem to be spilled after the destruction of the world (forgive Barbarossa, I held him, and learned what you talked about the other day), but the soul can. The soul can capture these from different sources. The energy of the world, and its self-strengthening... The more the population, the more souls, the more energy left behind. After the death of all living beings, the soul circulates in the world and turns into the reincarnation of the soul, returning all the energy absorbed in a lifetime to The world... can you understand?"

"The circulation of the soul will continue to strengthen the concentration of energy in a world! And this energy can definitely be used for the cultivation of extraordinary powers. As long as it has a little extraordinary power, it can give birth to the soul of the world, then its extraordinary power The concentration of force will be higher and stronger, and the smaller the world, the faster the concentration of extraordinary power will rise!"

And in the last paragraph of this letter, the handwriting was slightly different from before. It seemed that it was not written at the same time, and the handwriting became a lot scribbled.

"According to the gods, the Mykrov world should be at the end of the last epoch, partly blown up by the war between sages and evil gods. Today's Mykrov world is much smaller than it was in the Glory Era. One part of the size, so the energy concentration of our world returns to its heyday very quickly, and soon returns to the level of the Glory Era, even more intense."

"Boundless Heaven is the product of war. It was originally part of the sky of Mykrov's world. The gods set up a time and space barrier and turned it into their own throne. It was originally an extremely important part of the soul cycle, but now , Has become the burial place of the gods, and we guided it back to the world of Mycroft, completing a part of the reincarnation of the soul... The innocent souls who originally wandered around the world now finally have a place to rest."

The writer at this time seems to be a little tired, but he still writes seriously: "To be honest, the reason why I reply so late is because a major event has happened recently, which involves a lot of energy. If you can, Joshua, please contact me as soon as possible. This matter is very important and very special. Perhaps only you can solve it."

"—Seven Sacred Mountains, Eagle."

The letter has appeared, but the recipient has left, heading to an unknown distant place.

At this moment, the battleship of the sacred mountain, the fortress of glory, the central control area of ​​the ‘Eye of the Holy’ Observatory.

More than a dozen elite priests are working hard in the spherical hall, facing the light curtains. They control hundreds of observation arrays and superimpose them into larger or smaller ones. Observation points capable of penetrating the turbulent flow of space, these observation points will be operated day and night under the control of three shifts of priests, observing and monitoring all abnormal conditions around Mycroft World.

Whether it's time-space turbulence, energy fluctuations or massive mass depressions, these anomalies are all under the supervision of the Sage's Eye Observatory. Observing members gather all the information in detail and report it to the main control of the center of the holy mountain. Room, most of these information are meaningless temporal and spatial fluctuations, or noise caused by a tremor of energy, but no one will slack off because of this.

"There is no abnormality in the interval 58-92."

"There is no abnormality in the interval 93-121."

"There is an abnormality in section 131: A small piece of void meteorite is flying to the world of Mycroft. Detection result: no otherworldly germs remain. Treatment method: passively wait and see."

"No abnormal signal detected."

In the control area, the priests sent out a series of reports through the spirit. They seemed to be searching for something. Whenever an abnormal signal was found, everyone in the room would be shocked, and when it was determined that this was nothing but a void After the most common disorder signal, they will return to normal.

And right in the center of the control zone, there is a white-haired old man standing here. In the respectful eyes of everyone around, Iger is monitoring all the signal stations at the same time. His face is calm, but he seems to be waiting for something. .

"His..."

"An abnormal signal was detected in interval 157."

The clergyman who controlled the observation point proficiently sent out a signal, although it was just an inaudible hiss, probably just a meaningless short wave caused by the interference of the void ray with the observation array, but his duty was to report everything. different.

"Hiss...lah."

"Anomalies were repeatedly observed."

The priests once again send out a second reminder signal. This is also a very normal thing. After all, if there is energy interference at the observation point, it will be expected even more than a dozen times in a row. The priests working here even He is ready to continuously send out reminders. At the same time, he is thinking about whether to eat barbecue for dinner. A few days ago, the fortress of the holy mountain was harvested in the cultivation center of the void. The fortress finally did not need to transport food on the surface, but Can be self-sufficient.

"His... we..."

"Anomalies observed repeatedly...wait!"

The middle-aged priest who was thinking about whether he should go to barbecue in luxury or deal with a meal of bread and potatoes in the cafeteria proficiently issued a reminder, but soon he was stunned. The priest felt himself I just seemed to hear the voice of Mycroft's Common Language...Is he the auditory hallucination? Or is there really such a voice? All in all, he intends to highlight this abnormal signal.

However, it was too late to wait for his next action, more and clearer signals came.

"Hiss...Z...Lah...here...it is...big information library...Watcher...report...Hiss..."

"Discover a clear alien signal!"

Without hesitation, the middle-aged priest immediately put aside the barbecue and mashed potatoes in his mind, and he sent the highest-level signal of the "outside observer"-this represents the discovery of otherworldly life, or there is energy The highest signal of communication or travel in the void. According to the process, this priest first saves the signal that just appeared through the intelligent core of the observatory, and then uploads it according to the level of authority, and because of his highest signal, he monitors all observation points in the 1-200 interval. Both shift the target and perform a full power search.

And Iger, who was standing in the control room, opened his eyes wide: because he was monitoring all the observation points at the same time, he also heard the voice—not an illusion, but the real Mycrof lingua franca, UU reading www.uukanshu. The voice of com is a bit weird, the accent is very different from today's lingua franca, but anyone can understand this language as if it is a dialect.

Finally waited.

And the next time I waited, it didn’t take long. As the highest reminder was issued, all the working priests confirmed that the signal was true, and when they gathered the observation points in interval 157, a clearer signal appeared in everyone’s ears. .

"...The inner loop has collapsed, we can no longer survive, and the material transformation circle can still operate, but we no longer have the material to circulate."

This is a tired female voice, her tone is very strange, it seems that she rarely speaks like people, and there are many problems with grammar, but no one cares about this little detail, everyone listens attentively: "Xingchen It’s extinguished, and the world is in darkness. Without light, we can’t find the way home... Can hear this voice, passers-by of this signal, if you can hear, please tell Mrs. Mike Rowe, we keep our promise and stand here ."

"The millennium has passed. The guards of the integrated information database and their descendants are still in their posts and will sleep here."
