Soul of Burning Steel

The chaotic condensate like a mountain peak was sealed by translucent crystals in an obelisk that was bigger than the mountain peak, and the dark and deep breath overflowed, even making the light of a large forest of crystal obelisks around it extremely dim.

Chaos, like order, is contagious, self-replicating, and highly corrosive, and the malicious chaos from the evil god is even more special, even though Joshua has already annihilated their activity and shattered these things. The cohesive core of chaos prevents these malicious chaos from growing into new evil gods, but their corrosiveness can still wreak havoc in the world of a steel god.

It can be seen that the area around the giant crystal obelisk has become a restricted area for the silver goblins. These Joshua's family members have extremely high authority in the silver world. They are like the white blood cells of the world, and they can mobilize the warriors to a certain extent. The power repairs the erosion caused by chaos, and can also attack and destroy some slight malicious chaos. If the conditions are met, even all members can use the golden high-level Symmetra to perform purification operations.

But even the silver goblin who was sheltered by Joshua did not dare to get close to the surrounding area of ​​the "last chaotic condensate" in this silver world. The silver fairies that had turned black were unconscious on the ground, like bees that had been suffocated to death by mosquito coils. They were probably the silver fairies who had failed to cleanse the previous few times and stayed here.

It can be seen that some of the eyes of these silver goblins have become big X characters, and some have become swirling vortexes... This is how elemental life is.

"..."

Without saying a word, Joshua raised his hand and threw the eroded silver goblins out - the other silver goblins cheered and praised Joshua's Lord's name, and they would naturally throw these eroded ones into the purification pool After doing these things, the warrior came to the base of the obelisk, the huge chaotic condensate, where the last black stain in the silver world was.

Over the years, billions of players cooperated with Joshua's flushing and purification, but the reason why this condensate has not been destroyed is actually not as complicated as everyone thinks. The answer is actually very simple - that is, when this game appears in the game In the chaotic memory, when the relevant civilization encounters a problem, no player can solve it and officially pass the level.

All the chaotic memories of civilizations that were troubled by this problem and then destroyed have not shown signs of being purified so far.

And Joshua came here to solve this problem.

So the warrior reached out and touched the base of the obelisk.

And the moment Joshua touched the obelisk, he could sense that there was an unusually huge suction force acting on his mind, trying to pull him into the chaotic memory like a dream—if it was before, Joshua had already been pulled in at this time, and then tried to solve the problems encountered by the chaotic memory in the illusion, and then destroyed and purified the other party from the inside. This is generally the most formal process of purifying chaotic memories. Even the game Continent of Conflict follows this principle to pull players into a safe game scene similar to a chaotic illusion to experience and solve problems.

But what is more embarrassing is that in order to achieve this, the volume of chaotic memory must be at least equal to that of the person being pulled in.

Obviously, compared with Joshua's current body size and the chaotic condensed body that is only a few thousand meters high, it is obvious who is bigger.

This is the body of Joshua Van Radcliffe, a superpower beyond the star rank, and this time the chaotic memory is not the star-level evil god of death in the past world, it can only be regarded as the most stubborn remaining of the other party. A smudge - so on the contrary, the chaotic memory was pulled into Joshua's mind, and then carefully observed and analyzed by the soldiers to dissect out the essence.

"...Change and conservatism. It turns out that the two can condense the chaotic core of evil gods."

Through pure energy level suppression, Joshua easily obtained the corresponding civilization memory from the chaos, and found out the essential problems hidden in it.

But this time, what he discovered from the chaotic clot were 'change' and 'conservation', these two caused the destruction and extinction of multiple civilizations, if they were not suppressed by him, they would probably gradually grow into two evil gods in the outside world powerful chaotic nature.

Of course, it is said to be two, but in fact, these two chaotic essences are entangled and almost inseparable, making the situation many times more complicated than when they were alone. It is no wonder that players cannot easily solve this problem.

Joshua's mind deeply analyzed these chaos, and soon, he received almost countless flickering memory fragments from it—and these memory fragments, without exception, were all civilizations that were destroyed because of 'change and old-fashioned' fragment.

——In a primitive high-energy world, multiple races worship multiple primitive gods. These primitive gods are born with part of the power of fire, possessing extremely powerful power, and enjoy the sacrifices of each race. Such a world of primitive beliefs will generally gradually become a polytheistic world with the passage of time, and it is also possible that the primitive social form will last for tens of thousands of years, or even remain unchanged.

But suddenly one day, a god priest discovered that the divine power of the original god can be taken away, so the god priest spent a long time, step by step, seized the divine power of the god he worshiped, and became a new god. While the god priest was shocked, he also had different thoughts in his heart - naturally, the primitive gods were also furious in panic. They launched a war against the new god and many evil spirit priests, and this primitive god In this way, the high-energy world of God was destroyed in the civil war of the gods.

——A world with almost no supernatural powers, intelligent races with gender differences developed to the industrial age, in which males have the advantage in physical strength and dominated the evolutionary development process for thousands of years, while females were in the previous era Basically as an accessory, the status is low. Even if the status has been improved in the recent period, it will still suffer from a lot of discrimination.

However, due to the process of industrialization, the difference between males and females has been narrowed. In factories, males and females are not treated differently. In their respective positions, the resources produced by both parties are close. Therefore, with the development of industrialization, the status of females has also changed. Gradually improving, whether it is living habits or dressing, it is far from the era when males dominated in the past. Some females even gained financial independence through work and no longer have to look at male faces. Backlash - Some male chauvinists reject changes to women's rights, calling on society to go back to the past, rejecting women's publicity and going to work in factories.

This is naturally contrary to the social process. In order to protect their own rights and interests, females do not hesitate to confront the patriarchs. However, the disputes between the two parties have not gradually subsided due to the advancement of the times, but have intensified, until finally, a The two genders within the race regard each other as enemies, enslaving part of each other as reproductive tools, and due to the unique physical characteristics of the race, males and females even transform themselves into two completely different independent races, both with independent The ability to reproduce... and the end of the two sides is to destroy each other in a global race war.

——A world that was originally free of demons, but due to various reasons, gradually developed extraordinary power. The civilization developed to the level of the Middle Ages, and a small number of awakened people who were born with awakened extraordinary power appeared in places where extraordinary power was enriched. This was originally a civilization. It is a good thing to gradually develop supernatural powers, but due to civilized and cultural reasons, all natural supernatural beings are regarded as monsters and are hunted down by pickets composed of ordinary people.

Because of individual differences, jealousy, and fear of the unknown, ordinary people continue to hunt and kill supernatural beings without inheritance. It is just that supernatural beings who are born awakened do not have much countermeasures before they grow up. He fled into the deep mountains and old forests to barely survive. As the turmoil intensified, the confrontation between the extraordinary and the ordinary people became more and more intensified. In order to kill the signs of the extraordinary who might exist, the pickets would even kill innocent ordinary people by mistake without hesitation. Even more to be tortured to death.

The parents of a transcendent were found to be protecting the transcendent. After sending their son into the deep mountains, they were burned alive by the pickets. The transcendent who witnessed all this cursed everyone and everything. He cursed the world and strongly hated The supernatural power that pushed him became stronger and stronger, and before his death, this curse combined with the souls of countless superhumans who were killed, and turned into a supernatural plague that destroyed all life. It was lodged in a common flu virus Among them, it began to spread around the world... The super black death killed all intelligent life, and civilization was declared dead.

...

...

Joshua quickly scanned the memories of these destroyed civilizations, and the more he looked, the tighter his frown became.

"This problem is a bit unsolvable... The alternation and struggle between the new and the old is essentially part of the development of order and civilization... No one can boast that they can solve it 100%."

Change and conservatism are actually the self-struggle and progress within the order. The process of regression, while bringing possible progress, may also bring regression and destruction, and this self-destruction factor, under the guidance of the evil god of death, It turned into a powerful chaotic essence. If Joshua hadn't suppressed it, as long as these chaotic forces came to the outside world and destroyed a civilization, they would inevitably grow into a new evil god.

Of course, Joshua couldn't solve this problem. After all, Mrs. McCrom still had a certain reluctance to body transformation, and was very cautious about the newly developed fighting qi cultivation methods.

This is not surprising, because behind the reforms that represent 'innovation' and 'progress', there are shadows called 'crazy' and 'blindness', and behind the conservative that seems to represent 'ignorance' and 'stubbornness', there are also shadows. Positive connotations of 'careful' and 'responsible'.

And it seems that Joshua's mind has been sensed, the scenes about the reform and conservation of Mycroft's civilization were originally sealed in the crystal obelisk, and the chaotic memory that was solidified like a rock suddenly boiled, and the malicious chaos turned into The swirling vortex released a dim light, and at the same time, the silver goblins who were watching this scene from a distance, their faces full of anticipation, waiting to see how their master would purify the chaos suddenly felt dizzy, one by one as if Like a bee fainted by the smoke, it rained down like a clatter.

They feel that their minds are being shaken, and all kinds of colorful and extremely disgusting colors fill their minds, and the surrounding sky and earth shake alternately, like a million-flower mirror that has been turned upside down. It began to invade the simple and innocent minds of the silver goblins in an attempt to plant seeds.

But soon, this dizzying mental invasion was over.

The silver goblins who opened their eyes again saw the collapse of the crystal obelisk like a mountain peak, and the huge, boiling chaotic condensate that was originally sealed inside was compressed by the soldiers and became only the size of a fist. scene.

Among the crystal obelisk clusters as dense as a primeval forest, the largest sealed obelisk collapsed silently, and the translucent crystals that made up its shell shattered and decomposed in mid-air, turning into a sky full of light and mist, row after row of mysterious and complicated The runes were generated in the mist, and countless silver lines spread around the warrior's incarnation, and the majestic steel force surged. While suppressing the chaos, it also condensed light particles like flying snow in midair.

Joshua stood on the ground, apparently only the size of an ordinary human being, but it felt bigger than the world. He stared at the black chaotic essence in his hand that he forcibly compressed into the size of a fist, and shook his head. .

"Sorry, I can't solve your problem."

In the ears of the silver goblin, Joshua murmured apologetically, "Then we can only get rid of you."

snap.

The chaotic memory that has plagued billions of players in Continent of Disputes for several years was completely crushed by brute force—sometimes, brute force really cannot get the answer to the problem, but it can solve the problem itself, just like reform, Whether it is a reformist or a conservative, if they hold absolute power, then no matter whether they are blind, crazy, or stubborn, they all have the opportunity to be corrected and return to the right path, not to mention that even if it is the wrong path, in absolute power With the support of strength, I am afraid that I can also get a good future.

This is also an answer.

It can be seen that at the moment when the black chaotic clot was completely crushed, countless chaotic forces exploded, and malicious chaotic forces flew around his body as if alive, trying to invade Joshua's body.

Joshua didn't resist. He closed his eyes, allowing these chaotic forces to invade his incarnation, experiencing this 'extraordinary power' beyond the scope of ordinary people's comprehension.

Just like magic power, elements, ether, life energy, holy light and other extraordinary powers... the special extraordinary power that belongs exclusively to the evil gods and the chaotic family, the essence of 'Malicious Chaos' is also a special extraordinary power.

"I can't understand—maybe it's just that my realm is not enough. The legend hasn't broken through 'that level of boundary'."

Opening his eyes, Joshua's expression was a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up: "However, it's not like there's nothing to gain.

Joshua came here unexpectedly to clean the inside of his own world this time, not purely because he wanted to solve the hygiene problems inside his own world. The soldiers actually didn't care about chaos, but just to verify their guesses.

— Chaos Essence, or in other words, Chaos Memes.

A power to infect, spread and detect through information transmission similar to psionic bugs!

At this time, Joshua has roughly figured out how the evil god induces the chain of chaos, and how to lock and invade by "knowing the number of intelligent life forms"... Just like before, the original silence represents "change" Because of the chaotic nature of Joshua's thinking about the "reform and conservatism of the Mycroft civilization", the fighters can be sure that the evil gods are accurate by detecting the "memes" similar to themselves. Find your own target civilization and launch a campaign of invasion and destruction.

The evil god of natural disasters attacked the world of Ilgnar, which was suffering from natural disasters, and the evil god of abundance attacked the world of Mycroft, which was extremely prosperous. Only when the meme meets the standard will it be revived and attack it.

At the moment of civilization destruction, malicious chaos will extract a chaotic essence, which is the chaotic meme as the core, sealing all the information and memory of the entire civilization as one... In a sense, this is a natural phenomenon, just Just as the holy light purifies everything by nature, malicious chaos, as one of the supernatural forces, will naturally produce evil gods. This is a kind of "universal cognition of the changed multiverse" like supernatural powers such as magic power.

"Sure enough, the evil god is a meme creature to a certain extent."

Dazzling silver light came from Joshua's body, purifying all the malicious chaos in the vicinity one by one, turning them into silver balls like stars, which revolved around him. The warrior's eyes were deep, and he could see that there was a touch of crimson. Light is shining in its eyes.

"The same goes for God."
