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

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

He originally thought that this was the spontaneous action of Tianqing Baozhu, just like the inheritance task he had experienced in his previous life, the relics of the sage would test or test him in a mysterious place, and then give him an advanced inheritance, just like the one in the family cemetery.

But he was wrong.

The endless flow of light, like a river, encircled the soldier's body and led Joshua across some inexplicable boundary, allowing him to see the world.

Although he was looking, in fact, Joshua was "feeling" with his spirit. Countless information poured directly into the soldier's brain, which made him feel how shallow the world he used to observe with his eyes was, and how complex and wonderful the real world was.

He felt it.

A will.

It is the soul that covers the whole world and carries the mind of all things. It has existed since heaven and earth appeared in the void and will exist forever.

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

The long river of time flows by Joshua's side. Countless double images overlap each other. Countless pictures constitute a flowing image.

Joshua saw it.

He saw the tangled veins under the earth.

He saw countless depleted and decayed veins and rocks turned into dust.

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

He saw the core of the earth, the black clouds over the earth, and the cold wind around the seas. He saw the structure of the world, the blueprint of creation, everything, everything that exists.

He also saw the evil existence of invading from the empty air, deeply rooted in the flesh and blood of the earth, with strange crystals as its tentacles, creeping and expanding its territory.

He saw that the chaos had been deeply rooted in his flesh and blood, eroding his core and turning the world into a desolate famine world.

Joshua was led here. He watched all this, and in his eyes, he seemed to see the vision of the future.

The world began to collapse under the erosion of evil.

Water, dry condensation, time and space into static.

The wind, the flow stops, the magic and the elements dissipate.

The earth is twisted and collapsed, and the earth and all things become nothingness.

Fire, completely extinguished, all the existence of chaos.

Finally, the illusion ended, and Joshua came back to himself. He found that the river of light that brought him here had reached the end. The turbulent light stream roared past Joshua's body, but did not lead him forward.

Joshua stood in the dark void. He looked up and saw the vault forged by the stars. Behind him was the river of time (the past). In front of him, the infinite nothingness was extending into the distance (the future).

What is this place?

What did I see just now?

He frowned and looked around him, only to find that the scene was constantly changing, as if it was changing with his observation.

"Here, on the inside of the world."

But as if you could hear Joshua's voice, a voice appeared from the void. It was low, a little hoarse, but very gentle. The voice was a little vague at the beginning, but gradually became clear: "what you saw before was the past of the world and the coming future."

Joshua looked around, but did not find the voice of the people, but after a while, he noticed that there was a dot appeared in the distant void.

The little spot was like the faint starlight in the sky, and could hardly be seen, but it quickly grew bigger and twinkled. Finally, under the shocked gaze of Joshua, it turned into a huge silver Python like a star. It twisted its body, and the scales of steel rubbed against each other, splashing red flames, while the silver pupils looked at Joshua, There's a little bit of curiosity in it.

Looking at this shocking scene, Joshua could not help shaking his head to calm himself down.

No matter who the other party is, it doesn't show any malice at this time, and it can communicate. The situation is not bad. The soldier takes a breath gently, and then says, "excuse me, where is this?"And you, what is it?

Although he didn't open his mouth, the huge Python seemed to know what Joshua was thinking. He calmly replied, "this is the inside of the world."

"I am the will of the world you live in. You can call me carlis the steel python."

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

There is nothing wrong with the fantasy world and the incarnation of the world's will. There are also real gods in the continent of mirov. Moreover, it is said that the first God in the world is the world itself, which is not shocking news.

But he still wondered why the will of the world appeared in front of him - an ordinary soldier who is now only a gold class.

So Joshua asked directly, "so... Why did you bring me here? Why did you show up? "

"Because of the fire."

A low and gentle voice reverberated in the void. The huge steel Python circled slowly. He looked at Joshua and the weak light in his hands, and said, "I was sleeping and dying. It was because I saw the fire that I woke up and came here.

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

Joshua raised the cyan crystal in his hand, and the weak fire light burned slightly in it. His face was calm, and he didn't mind each other's peeping.

"Not really."

Steel Python is very peaceful, but his words are unexpected: "although I wake up because of the sudden light, I have no desire for your fire."

He looked at Joshua quietly, as if he was more interesting than the fire. The steel Python said with great interest, "what can you do with your fire?"

He didn't have any reason to cheat. He just said his thought: "all my children have died long ago, and their decaying corpses are now in my body. Even if you spread the fire and let me live for a hundred years, I can't conceive a second civilization and light my own flame again."

At this point, the steel Python seems to laugh at itself.

But hearing this sentence, Joshua felt a little uncomfortable. He frowned: "no, if all life is your children, then your children are not all dead."

He raised his head, looked 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 on the barren field for thousands of years, keeping your only remaining fire."

"... maybe“

After a moment's silence, the steel Python said softly, "if it were thousands of years ago, I would have directly asked for it. If it was hundreds of years ago, I would have planned to trade this fire with you, but now, I won't let you lose anything."

He looked into Joshua's eyes and became more and more interested: "young man, you can have such quality of order... This is the best way to fight chaos."

"I know you're from another world, but it doesn't matter. There are many questions in your heart... Just ask. In return for waking me up, I can answer them for you. "

"Evil spirits."

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

After a moment of silence, the body of the steel Python wriggled in the void. Soon after, the answer came out.

"The God of famine, the Crystal Insect Ulma days, the son of famine... Their world began with the fire in the forest, and the flame of civilization burned in the swamp and the forest. As a civilization that has experienced thousands of years and finally developed into a civilization that can go in and out of the void, they vowed to pass on their flame to other worlds."

"However, just as there are isolated islands in the world, they have not found any other world in ten thousand years."

"They are located in the world of embers without fire. If they can develop civilization, it is a miracle in the miracle. But this time, there is no miracle."

When steel Python said this, it seemed with a touch of sadness: "civilization has reached its limit, all resources have been exhausted, but they still can't find another world in the star world, civilization began to regress, gradually, they can't get in and out of the star world any more."

"Under the pressure of increasingly tense resources, they eat up their own world - hollowing out the soil and rocks, and really depleting all the material. They hollowed out the earth, carefully use the energy, and maintain the cycle as far as possible, until the thousand years, the thousand years, the eternal disaster."

His huge body surrounds the river of time. Steel Python's eyes look directly at Joshua, who is lost in thinking. His voice is hoarse and low: "at first, there are billions of people, then there are tens of millions of people, 100000 people, 1000 people, 100 people, 10 people, one person.""Until the last man died in endless loneliness and hunger, the fire of their civilization finally lost its fuel and went out in pain and despair."

"And the world, in the agony of despair, is distorted."

The narration of steel Python is coming to an end.

"The world, too, will move its position. Not long later, a world that has developed magic power technology has come into contact with the wreckage of the world with nothing in the endless exploration of the void."

"And the sad God of famine was born."

Kallis's world will bent his head down and circled most of his body covered by void: "as for the purpose of evil gods, no one knows, but they will only bring despair, pain, famine, war, pestilence and death. There is no doubt about it."

He looked directly into Joshua's eyes and said calmly, "I am carlis the steel python."

"After learning all this, would you like to be the guardian of the world, expel chaos and guard the frontier of order?"

And Joshua was thinking.

A moment later: "I refuse."
