Chapter 837

The star river of the world, unknown void.

"This world is full of powerful chaotic energy... But it is far from evil god. It seems that even if there is civilization inside, it only develops to the primitive tribal era at most."

A surging holy light flashed through the turbulent flow of time and space, and then slowly condensed into numerous aggregates of colorful bubbles. Under the holy light, an old white haired old man stood in the void with a strong faced knight.

"Well... Did you die of fighting for the fire of the gathering place? Insect clusters release toxins from each other, causing compounds to mix, creating a low ignition point and high concentration of acid vapor. The acid mist is directly ignited by the sunlight, causing a huge explosion. In addition, there are also reasons for the spread of abnormal infectious diseases due to the lack of timely treatment of corpses. "

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly. He seemed to be able to cross the world barrier and see the situation inside the world directly. He murmured in a low voice: "it's the mass extinction phenomenon caused by the civil war of insect like civilization, and the civilization level has developed to the point where large underground nests can be built."

"Clean it up."

In this way, the old man raised his hand and sent down the holy light.

In an instant, the endless brilliance penetrates the world barrier. The golden, white and gray pillars of light sweep every part of the inner world like three suns. From the mountains to the ocean floor, from the continental shelf to the basin, all the regions that once had an ecosystem and are now infected by chaos have been thoroughly illuminated and purified.

The Golden Knight stood behind the old man. He watched his adoptive father purify the world, and then connected the Wanjie sacrificial hall. He asked to go to the next possible life world. I was silent.

Stirred by the turbulence of time and space, they appear in another world.

"The world has not been completely infected by chaos, but the ecosystem has been seriously damaged... The chemical weapons war has completely poisoned the atmosphere, and civilized individuals can only carry anti-virus equipment to move around the outside world. The chaotic energy has not yet condensed into substance, but it is already very huge. It seems that I have to lower my avatar to clear it. "

The old man sighed. A little light flew out of him and disappeared into the world. He shook his head with regret and said, "the civilizations of the world have developed... The satellite technology that Joshua said? They will soon be able to colonize the moon and even build floating cities... But the matrix of civilization has been completely damaged. Even after the end of the world, it will take a long time for them to rebuild their civilization. "

They can be seen, like lizards, but they are more slender and light. The creatures with wing membranes between hands and feet wear strange life support clothes. They walk carefully in the city ruins full of poisonous gas and acid, and collect some available materials and facilities as much as possible. They are now gathered on the top of some building debris, There are also some remaining large floating cities, where the air is relatively clean and can barely live, but the floating city has no source of resources and is water without source.

It's another time-space transmission.

Transmission is not always able to save or encounter civilization. The journey of old people and knights is long and boring. They just keep fighting fires and destroying the chaos that has been formed. In a few days, they have witnessed the extinction and imminent destruction of dozens of civilizations that they have never found before, Because they don't show the value of being discovered and communicating, they are still latent, waiting for a bright moment in the future and the void.

Only now, everything has lost its meaning.

"What do you think, loranda?"

Finally, on a blue planet, the old Pope watched the light of his incarnation in the void. The human form defeated the evil incarnation like a group of light, and solved the civilization on the planet from the unprecedented social riots. Instead of turning his head, he asked in a low voice, "do you understand the power of this' unknown evil god '

"Father, I understand."

Paladin loranda, the adopted son of Pope Igor of the seven gods, bowed his head respectfully and replied seriously: "but there are some things I don't understand now... After witnessing that the poison of chaos can spread to so many worlds, I was shocked and angry, but I was surprised to have some other feelings."

Hearing this, Iger nodded slightly and said, "that's what I brought you for... Say it."

After getting permission, loranda turned his head, looked at the blue world that had gradually returned to calm, and said softly, "I used to travel on the mainland of mirov, helping the people, solving problems, and eradicating cults. Because of your teaching, I don't intend to stay on the holy mountain to grind hard, and become a leader in addition to strength, A strong ascetic who does not benefit the world. "

"I've traveled far south and wandered in the west mountain. I've helped countless people and punished numerous villains... I've seen a lot of love, hate and parting, and a lot of soul stirring things. Naturally, I've seen some of the ugliest things in the world. ""In the small town on the edge of the mountains, young women are always missing. Sometimes they are the second daughter of the blacksmith family, sometimes they are the daughter of the ordinary farmer family. Their disappearance is a bad thing for their families, but for the whole city, it's just irrelevant news... Of course, at that time, I won't sit back and ignore them. I can trace the clues, Excluding the admonishments and warnings of many local officials and nobles, all the missing women were recovered... Some of them were only partially recovered. "

"The lucky ones are only sold as slaves and can be completely rescued. The unlucky ones are sold to the dark magicians as experimental materials, or illegal vampires, or rich nobles who are addicted to abuse, hand fetishism, and corpse fetishism. In that case, it's good to have a complete human form, and most of the corpses are fragmentary."

The old Pope listened in silence. He didn't say anything when he had traveled the world like this. And loranda continued to say faintly: "of course, it's not only women who are abducted and sold, but also some little boys or babies are stolen... Some of them are sold to other infertile families as children, which is considered the best luck. At least they can have a complete life, but most of all, these children will become the victims and experimental tools of some families, Or cut off your tongue, cut off some limbs, and use them as begging tools in big cities. "

"There are many possibilities, and I won't list them one by one. Of course, these are not important, at least for civilization."

When he said that, the paladin raised his head, his voice was not angry, but cold and calm: "these are small things... Father, there are many bigger things, such as collusion between government and business, exploitation of the bottom, such as shoddy construction of dams, which led to the downriver being completely submerged, tens of thousands of people being killed, hundreds of thousands of people being displaced... The king was corrupt, Officials shut their eyes and nobles do whatever they want in their own territory. This kind of thing will not be improved with the progress of technology. A few days ago, a western mountain king showed off his pet maid to me and used people as animals. I didn't kill him with a hammer because I knew it was legal and reasonable for their society, I can't force stupid natives to observe etiquette just because I'm virtuous. "

"You can kill him." The old Pope could not deny: "of course, you need to know what the consequences of your actions will be. But loranda, what do you want to say? "

"What I want to say is that contradictions, disputes, ugly things, resentments between people, and the sadness in the depths of society are all normal things. As long as we have not reached the glorious era, these bad roots will never disappear. But even in the glorious era, is there no such contradiction? What does dispute have to do with evil spirits? "

The paladin raised his head, and his tone was as firm as iron: "I don't think at all that these disputes are caused by evil spirits - because this is the evil that lurks in people's hearts, the brewing bitter fruit. If it doesn't break out now, it will break out in the future."

"But in fact, the destruction of these civilizations was caused by the chaotic disturbance of" unknown evil gods. "

Iger didn't express much emotion for his adopted son's words. He just pointed out the other side's wrong point: "there is no unknown evil god, and these contradictions of civilization are likely to be covered up and dissolved by the social progress brought about by technological progress, just like the rapid development of technology after we mcrolfe civilization got the integrated information database, Many conflicts have disappeared - at least not on that day. "

This is also the reason why there are not many contradictions that can be called crisis until now. If the real estate per mu is less than 100 kg, the peasants will not be able to survive after paying taxes, which will naturally lead to contradictions. However, if the technology advances and the real estate per mu is 300 kg or 400 kg, the peasants will not be starved to death after paying taxes, and the contradictions will be naturally suppressed.

As for the contradiction pointed out by Iger, loranda just smiles calmly: "father, I mean, at least the dispute itself is not caused by evil spirits. There are always disputes. The demise of these civilizations is very reasonable. Except that they will be transformed into chaos after death, everything is the same as it should be. "

"The power of this evil god is not to create disputes at all. If it has a name, it will not be" disputes "or" contradictions ". At least there must be evil gods who create them out of thin air in order to be regarded as the evil gods of disputes and contradictions."

This argument is very clear, and also in line with Iger's own previous speculation, so he nodded and motioned loranda to continue.

"Father, I have worked with count Radcliffe to explore different worlds before. I often contact him. He often says that the existence of civilization itself is not something" inevitable ". Any civilization may collapse at any time. This is the biggest" social experiment "jointly conducted by all intelligent life with instinct, Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones. They don't know what ditch is ahead of them. "

"Even if the civilization is shining, it will be destroyed, and the era of great harmony may not be perfect. Since civilization is not" eternal ", it will inevitably come to an end. Whatever the reason for the end is good, what can be destroyed will be destroyed by its reason.""The essence of this unknown evil god is to make civilization and even all things go to the end of themselves. It can be called" the end of evil god "or" the destruction of evil god ". Of course..."

At this point, loranda breathed out, and he whispered, "you can also call it death."

"Father."

The paladin sighed: "I want to protect the world of mccrolfe, protect my hometown - I just want to protect the world. But to tell you the truth, after seeing the power of this evil god, I was really afraid, even more than when I first looked directly at the coming of the incarnation of the evil god of natural disasters. "

"When sorrow keeps accumulating in the abyss, it will one day be fermented by despair and become the bitter fruit of death... So many civilizations have been destroyed, providing power for this unknown evil god. Even if the world of mirov can support us now, we will not be spared in the future. If we only protect one world, we will not be able to protect this world, only with stars in mind, Only in this way can one side be calm. "

Hearing this, Iger finally had a little expression, he showed a smile.

And loranda continued. He raised his hand and pointed to the blue world under him. Under the world barrier, chaos dissipated, and the human form of light came back victoriously: "people may be isolated islands, but civilizations are not. They are extinct. We are like losing the teeth of our lips, even if I am a selfish person who only wants to protect my own world, Now we have to help other civilizations as well. "

Speaking of this, the paladin also laughed: "I have enough strength to suppress some weaker worlds. Father, I don't want to be behind you any more. I want to be on my own

"Go ahead and remember your heart."

Iger didn't say much. He just turned around and patted loranda on the shoulder: "but I think you need a few more years to understand so clearly... Loranda, you have made great progress, far beyond my imagination."

"That's because I'm standing behind my father, you and count Radcliffe... The speed of those who move forward is so fast that those who follow behind dare not slack off."

Loranda began to apply for the transmission authority of Wanjie sacrifice hall. Of course, because he is not a legendary strong man, there will be a certain delay. However, during this time, he can still say a few words with igordo. The paladin sighed: "the so-called hero is not to charge alone, but to encourage people to fight together."

Iger looked at his disciple and adopted son. He touched his beard and said in a low voice: "do you mean that Joshua is a hero in your eyes?"

"Of course not, father."

Loranda said with a smile, "count Radcliffe is not a hero - he is a flag."

"He is the banner of our time."

A flag was set up ten years ago and floated in the strong wind.

"It's just that he doesn't know and doesn't care... The flag is in the front, and the hero is following. Our civilization, because of him, has gone to the direction he guides. Maybe Joshua didn't realize this, but in fact, even father, you can't help but be guided by him? It's just like this time, he was in the forefront of suppressing chaos through Wanjie sacrificial hall. "

"Ha ha, he is always resolute."

The old man couldn't help laughing in a low voice. He touched his beard again and said calmly, "so, loranda, what do you think you are and what do you want to be in the future?"

At this time, loranda's body has been covered by the teleportation array from the Wanjie sacrifice hall. He is in the virtual state before teleportation. For his foster father's problem, the paladin naturally said, "I want to be a hero."

"Since you can't be a flag."

"Then be the nearest person behind the flag."
