Chapter 562: Thousand Stars Journey: [Return of the Herrscher]
"Everything we do is in vain."
Midnight Star stared at the rift that stretched all the way to the other side of the horizon, and stood there in a daze.
"Sister, is it true that we can't leave anything behind?"
She turned around and saw the fire demon lying in the snow, with dark red ice crystals beneath her, her lips were pale, and her eyes were empty, but a tree branch that came from nowhere had pierced the girl's body.
Continue to absorb blood and grow strong until.
The body turned into powder.
“We are from Him.”
An old figure in bronze armor staggered forward. It was Bernard, the son of the Moon God. The spear in his hand fell powerlessly, and he knelt on the edge of the cliff, taking one last look at the location of the Midnight Star.
“It’s all meaningless.”
As if all his energy and spirit had been drained away, the old man fell directly into the black abyss with his head tilted back.
Midnight Star walked uncontrollably to the place where the other party fell off the cliff. Looking down from above, he saw a tree emitting beautiful light swaying in the broken space in the black abyss.
It was not the Wingmaker's Sky, nor the Tree of the Gods that she knew.
And below the tree, in the vast desert that looked like the starry sky, a huge black shadow was surging like mud.
Midnight Star wanted to take a closer look, but suddenly, she looked at her chest and saw a tree branch piercing out from her heart, constantly absorbing blood, making the emerald green of the new bud look particularly strange.
She is dead.
"elder sister!"
"elder sister!"
Midnight Star opened his eyes and saw a somewhat unfamiliar ceiling. This was his new home.
"Beloberg is calling you over. A commander of the Velez Army has come to surrender." The fire demon called beside the bed.
Midnight Star looked around in confusion, and finally looked at his sister blankly and hugged her tightly in his arms.
"elder sister?!"
Feeling the struggle and twisting in his arms, Midnight Star gradually relaxed, with fear, panic and confusion remaining in his eyes.
"Sorry, I had a nightmare again."
"Is it because of Beloberg? I understand. His behavior is indeed a bit scary."
The fire demon's blushing face froze for a moment, and then he spoke with some fear.
Midnight Star shook his head:
"If it's Belloberg, it's a sweet dream."
"?"
The fire demon watched Midnight Star get up and walk out of this somewhat ordinary wooden house, and his petite body suddenly felt a chill.
During this period of time, more and more descendants of gods have become supporters of the other side after listening to the speech, and worship him as the only savior. Even the people of the Immortal Boat have failed to persuade them.
The inexplicable enthusiasm made Huo Yao dare not participate in any of the other party's speeches. However, the brothers and sisters wanted to drag him to participate in some study sessions.
So weird.
…………
[Era of Light, Day 25]
In the hall of the Church of Destiny, a sound of iron clashing was heard.
"Yae, you're not dead, are you?"
Su Lin looked at Kaguya lying in his arms, gritting his teeth, and asked in pain: "Why do you do this?!"
A long knife pierced through Kaguya's body in the lower abdomen, and blood flowed out, staining the shrine maiden's costume red.
"Ahem! Fool!"
Kaguya spat out a mouthful of blood. She raised her hand as if to touch Su Lin's cheek, but the poison spread through her blood vessels, and spider-web-like black lines appeared on her face: "How can I bear to see you get hurt. You and Kallen must be happy and forget me."
“Ahhhhh, that hurts.”
Kaguya Houraisan couldn't stop crying.
Su Lin instantly put away his grief, nodded, and said, "Okay."
He loosened his grip and let Kaguya fall onto the red carpet steps.
"Give her a good beating."
Irena walked up with a smile and pointed her wand at Kaguya Houraisan's head.
The light of magic flickers.
A few seconds later, the resurrected Kaguya Houraisan got up from the ground and taunted, "You scumbag, I came out specially to block the knife for you and you are not touched at all, you have no heart!"
"Thank you for blocking the knife for my immortal gold body, but please clean up the blood on the ground. It has stained my expensive wool blanket."
Under the horrified gazes of the people around him, Su Lin walked towards the commander of the Velez Group Army who was pinned to the ground and said, "You said you were surrendering, but you came to assassinate me. Someone in my hometown used this trick thousands of years ago."
The other person stared at Su Lin intently, with neither anger nor disappointment in his eyes.
This is normal. After all, through various means such as autopsy and soul searching, it was discovered that the brains of this group of Velez Army were empty. They were not even robots, but just vegetables.
"Get out of here quickly." Su Lin waved his hand and urged.
Several Wing Makers who looked like angels in medieval mythology came out and took the commander of the Velez Army Group away.
"Tianhe battle suit appearance fee -3000, Light God total salary -4500."
After the sync clone dealt with the light arrows and expressed his gratitude to the number one brother on the list today, the Patrol Star God, Su Lin asked Giovanni not far away, "Have you sold all the things?"
"It's out of stock. It's selling well among the People of Light and the WingMakers."
Giovanni bowed and said, "Would you like to print more? I have some good ideas here, which will definitely be exciting. In the end, it will be the Joy Star God who pays for it."
"Let's leave it like this for now." Su Lin said as he grabbed a pile of broken light arrows.
When we return to normal time, we will sell these high-priced arrows obtained during hunting to Xianzhou.
The light arrows fired every day brought a large amount of fragments, which were excellent raw materials for refining equipment. With capital operations, they could be turned into real rockets. The only problem was that one had to survive the hunting patrol first.
"Mr. Giovanni, the Church of Heaven's Destiny has almost conquered most of the country, but we haven't dug out any information about the final boss. What do you think we, the righteous companions, should do?"
Su Lin asked.
"I am just a merchant, and I can't help you with this matter."
Giovanni said, "Besides, I see that the Bishop seems to be enjoying it. Why don't we enjoy it?"
Old Biden, I think you are the only one who enjoys it the most...
The speed of the counterattack by fighting to support the war is faster than expected. What Su Lin needs to do is to hold a wave of light seminars after each city is captured, to guide the dark people with distorted values to become people of light.
This kind of thing is not difficult, especially since Su Lin can also provide some BGM.
As a result, the number of Fengrao people decreased, and only the original Velez Army was left to hold on.
"In traditional RPG games, there is usually an NPC who guides the protagonists, such as a god walking on earth, who will release key information after completing the task."
Su Lin said meaningfully.
Giovanni pondered for a moment, as if he had suddenly realized something, and asked, "Is it the Lord God of Light?!"
"Yes, it is the great God of Light." Su Lin lazily supported his chin and said:
"The omniscient and omnipotent God of Light has sent down an oracle that you are this year's Messenger of Light. When the time comes, it will be up to you to defeat the God of Darkness and save the world."
"Huh?!" Giovanni said in panic, "Is this true?! I'm fighting the God of Darkness?!"
Just when Su Lin was performing with this drama queen.
Midnight Star, a tall girl with red hair, walked into the church hall.
"You came just in time. I have two things to ask you. The first is how other descendants of God have explored the subspace to escape from the world."
As a planet that once had a complete history of the Age of Gods, there are naturally more than just the dozen or so descendants of gods on Midnight Star. There are many more descendants of gods who chose to keep to themselves.
"Should we find them?" Midnight Star thought for a moment and said, "We haven't been in touch for more than two hundred years. Maybe Bernard has a way."
Bernard is the oldest brother among the descendants of gods and also the most prestigious one.
Su Lin nodded and continued, "The second thing is, I'm curious, you descendants of God never call yourselves gods, what is the difference between you and your fathers?"
"We have only inherited some divine power and the power of laws. Unlike our fathers and you, we do not possess the complete authority of laws."
Midnight Star explained: "In the Perun Eleven Alliance in the distant past, only Perun and the other eleven could be considered gods. They possessed the power of the pinnacle of the law."
It was a similar explanation that Su Lin and others had heard when they first arrived here.
The twelve main gods, the laws, the myths of the world tree and the sea of chaos, the teleportation array across the galaxy, and the attempt to create the thirteenth god.
It’s not a destiny system yet.
Su Lin returned to his seat, crossed his legs and pondered, tapping lightly on the armrest with his index finger, making a crisp sound in the empty hall.
Not long after, just as Su Lin was about to speak, the world filled with sunset glow suddenly darkened.
The God of Light's clone clearly still had 1 hour, 07 minutes and 5 seconds left before clocking out for the day shift, but the world had become the same as when it was shrouded in darkness, without even a single sign.
At the top of the sacred tree, the power of light still covers the entire planet, but darkness and light seem to overlap.
The sound of bells came one after another, getting louder and louder, and the bellows of the organ beat, making a loud and ethereal sound.
Midnight Star and the others turned and looked outside the church door with nervous expressions.
In their field of vision, some dark creatures suddenly appeared in this area, ignoring the light, and sounds of commotion, panic, and roars occurred one after another.
"Overlapping realities?" Su Lin frowned slightly.
It was as if reality was suddenly tampered with or a layer of darkness was superimposed, rather than a sudden attack by the enemy.
He glanced at Giovanni, who was standing with his hands behind his back in a very standard posture. He saw that the other party was observing him without any concealment, and the mask on his face tilted slightly with his head, showing a puzzled expression.
"so be it…"
Su Lin stood up from the chair again and walked towards Midnight Star as if he had made some difficult decision. "Stretch out your hand."
Midnight Star, who had just taken out his weapon to provide support, was stunned for a moment, but still stretched out his hand.
Su Lin grabbed the other person's wrist and asked solemnly, "Are you willing?"
Kaguya Houraisan glanced at Irena, but found that there was no emotion on her face. Instead, she yawned out of boredom.
Noticing the gaze from the side, she said disdainfully: "Fake move~"
"Willing to...?" Midnight Star repeated blankly.
"Okay." Su Lin ignored the other party's tone, took out a blazing red sword out of thin air, and handed it to the other party: "From now on, you are the A-level Valkyrie of the Destiny Church."
Midnight Star only felt the fire power in his body begin to stir, and the power continued to surge out.
He was wearing the crimson armor, and the fire of eternal destruction was surging in his palms.
"She's so precious." Su Lin let go of his hand, took a few steps back, and said in a daze: "This game has the word 'Honkai Impact' in front of it."
……
……
The ruins are getting bigger and bigger as they are developed. Lu Mingfei has no doubt that this place can eventually be developed into the basement of Zhongli's house.
That is the place called the Chasm of Rocks.
"My friends, you have overlooked a possibility."
Klein was wearing his long gown and sitting in front of a table. A gold coin was spinning between his fingers. Finally, he shook his wrist to reveal Su Lin's portrait on the back of the coin:
"That means this guy is deliberately trying to murder me!"
"I don't believe you." Lu Mingfei said casually.
Mr. Fool's mouth is a lie.
The famous Five-Star God Su Yulin once said: "If it weren't for the fact that my group members were unable to achieve permanent destruction, I would definitely shut up Mr. Fool forever for the sake of everyone's future."
In response to Klein's rebuttal, others chose to remain silent. After all, it is difficult to distinguish true from false news nowadays.
Especially considering the journalism knowledge of front-office reporter Aha, there is indeed a one percent chance that Klein is innocent.
"Think about it carefully. If Su Lin knew that he had traveled back in time five thousand years ago, he would definitely do something stupid."
Klein took out his pipe, put on a beret, and grew a beard, looking like a detective. “There are some minor conflicts between him and me because of what Mr. Lu Mingfei did.”
"I believe you, you are innocent." Lu Mingfei is used to giving his friends the greatest trust.
Zhongli nodded and said, "Indeed, from a universal point of view, according to Su Lin's interesting style of doing things, he would indeed make some preparations in advance, so as to shock future generations."
But
However, everyone felt that Zhongli's words today were clearly biased, and they would not have made a firm judgment so quickly in the past.
why?
The water in the old man's teapot has been boiling for several minutes, but the tea has not been brewed yet.
"Everyone, let's look at it from a realistic and scientific perspective. Hypothesis, I mean hypothesis..."
"Suppose my words are so true."
"Then I said Su Lin traveled back from five thousand years ago immediately, 3, 2, 1 and see, nothing happened."
Klein secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the guy didn't jump out immediately.
"Utilitarianism is not advisable." Xing came over and said to Zhongli, "They found a broken bronze door and would like you to help."
"I understand." Zhongli stood up from the azure earth marrow ore.
"What do you mean by utilitarian milk? I love to tell the truth." Klein put down his pipe and said:
"Look, Mr. Walter over there has been fooled by the fictional historian Su Lin's unofficial history. Isn't this a deliberate targeting?!"
"The bronze door has been completed, but I said there is a collapse behind the bronze door. Do you think it is possible?"
Xing heard this and shook his head.
At this moment, Klein felt that he needed to look at the overall situation from a higher-dimensional perspective. His days as a detective in Backlund had given him meticulous analytical skills. He couldn't just give up his skills and talents just because he became a Sequence 0.
Remember, life will not always be in a comfort zone.
"Your Excellency the Great Guardian!"
First, a swirling blue stream surged, and then a fierce white light almost engulfed everything. Without Klein being able to foresee it, everyone only had time to make the most basic response.
Endless
A vast expanse of white.
Suddenly, accompanied by a burst of brisk and pleasant music, two large black characters first appeared, and then flashed by.
——【Genshin Impact】
It turned out to be that guy's work.
When the white light disappeared, Klein looked around. A towering church stood on a wasteland. A withered giant tree was burning, and thick smoke rose from the raging flames.
It is riddled with holes and devastation.
This is the only way to describe the environment here.
"Snow?"
He did not feel the cold weather, but he could see that the dark surroundings, the areas illuminated by the flames, were covered with thick white snow everywhere.
The broken armor and mottled weapons were stuck ownerlessly in the ground, covered with a layer of silver.
Klein looked back at the bronze door. Spiritual guidance told him that if he wanted to return, he just had to push the door open.
"other people"
He found that most people had dispersed, but by chance, the young and capable Great Guardian, Bronya Rand, was holding a black and white bayonet spear and looking around vigilantly.
The other party also saw Klein, and after a moment of hesitation, he was about to walk over here.
but see
A black shadow that looked like a giant dragon suddenly flew out from the darkness that was not illuminated by the fire and flew towards Bronya.
The ferocious dragon head roared, but the speed was far faster than the sound, and it seemed as if there was no resistance at all.
Just as Klein put his thumb and middle finger together, preparing to snap his fingers.
The sound of steel rubbing against each other burst out.
A pure white knight's spear in the hands of a black-haired girl carrying a sickle, blooming with the white that gives birth to everything!
Bronya murmured, "Seele?!"
