Class 9 of Senior High Two, one year before the college entrance exam, collectively transmigrated.
A Western fantasy world, turbulent, with frequent wars.
A group of students at the pea...
Reaction heat
Lin Lang's nose felt sore, but he still suppressed his excitement and patted Ou Wenna's shoulder: "Don't sigh for now, while the magic power is not lost, let's get to work quickly."
Accustomed to the high concentration of magic in Parnaki, both Rui Hang and the students in Class 9 were a little uncomfortable with the sudden return to a world without magic. Relying on the torn channel, they could barely ensure sufficient magic, but no one could guarantee when the channel would heal, or whether the channel that could have lasted for a month would collapse because of their opening, allowing the earth to contact Parnaki in advance.
Using magic, they concealed their bodies and headed straight for the highest peak on Earth - Mount Everest, and moved the space where the passage was located directly to the sky above the top of Mount Everest.
After doing all this, they once again activated their magic, covering the entire earth with their enormous mental power.
Across the world, from all walks of life, and of all ages, a total of about 500,000 people on Earth were selected to connect with Parnaki through dreams.
The structure of dreams comes from the subconscious ocean of the Parnaji people. Through their understanding of Parnaji, they construct the real world in their dreams. At the same time, they can stay awake in their dreams, but things involving the other world and war are deliberately erased by Team Nine.
The experiences and emotions in dreams do not disappear with the end of the dream. They will penetrate into the hearts of everyone who has experienced the dream as subconsciousness and become a part of their memories and emotions.
Because it was constructed through the dreams of others, it did not require a huge amount of extra magic power, so the magic power consumed by the entire magic was much smaller than originally expected, which was enough for Class 9 to support for a month.
After that, as long as they keep an eye on the movements of the people on Earth in the dream, preventing them from dying in it, and return to Parnaki to restore their strength before the passage is completely broken, Ovina and Rui Hang's plan can be perfectly executed.
There is a time difference between dreams and reality, enough for people on Earth to live in it for several years. However, the time of Parnaki and the Earth are synchronized, which means that people who are caught in the dream will fall into sleep for nearly a month.
However, the members of Team Nine were not worried that they would be harmed. The phenomenon of 500,000 people falling into eternal sleep at the same time around the world would certainly attract the attention of all countries in the world and unified the treatment. This greatly facilitated those who "died" in their dreams. After waking up, they would pass on the information about Parnaki and the news that the two worlds were about to merge to the authorities.
Everything went according to plan until the dream was about to end, when a sudden accident caught everyone off guard.
"How can there be evil spirits in dreams?!"
The dream should have ended with the students appearing in the dream and informing the most talented "travelers" who stayed until the end about their identities and what would happen next, hoping that they could take this news to Earth and prepare for the fusion of the two worlds in a few days. However, the appearance of the evil demons disrupted all their steps - they did not dare to send the travelers who were contaminated by the evil demons back to Earth.
In a world without magic, the evil spirits cannot do anything for the time being.
But once magic power surges into the earth, the earth that has not yet mastered magic will become a breeding ground and paradise for evil spirits.
The dream was constructed by the pro-war faction, and there was no possibility of evil spirits being integrated into it.
Therefore, there is only one possibility - they had been parasitized by evil spirits earlier.
"...Sorry, I think this is my fault." Only then did Ye Ziyou finally reveal the secret that he had suppressed in his heart. He showed a painful expression and did not dare to look at his companions: "I... am an evil demon."
"Wait a minute, why don't I understand something?" Lin Yuan widened his eyes and looked at the man in front of him in disbelief: "You? Evil demon? Are you kidding?"
"Yeah, how could you be a demon?" Zhou Ruo said, "When you went to the Temple of Life with me before, you were bathed in divine light, which can cause irreversible damage to demons!"
Ye Ziyu gave a bitter smile in his heart, having already anticipated his companions' reactions.
Anyone who suddenly hears that a companion with whom he has lived for five hundred years is the incarnation of evil will find it difficult to accept this fact quickly.
However, at this moment, no amount of explanation would make any sense, and even an apology seemed extremely pale: "It was me who ruined your plan, I..."
"Even if you are an evil demon, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with you." Ye Ziyou's voice was ruthlessly interrupted by Lin Lang. The next thing he did was to hit Ye Ziyou's forehead with a precise flick of his finger: "I was wondering why you have been acting so strangely for the past hundred years. It turns out it's because of this kind of thing! Even if you don't have confidence in yourself, you can't lose confidence in me! If it was you who released the evil demon, do you think I wouldn't be able to detect it? If I have to choose the most likely person from everyone, it should be me, the master of magic."
"That's right." Si Jishi nodded: "Evil demons are evil demons. We all came from China and have been educated in national unity since childhood. Who would discriminate against you?"
"There are so many people in our class." Su Mu said, "Even if they are evil demons, there are good ones."
"...Aren't you worried that I'm a usurper and not the original Ye Ziyou?" Ye Ziyou looked at his friends blankly, a little at a loss for what to do with their reactions.
"No." This time it was Sun Jingshu who spoke, her eyes gentle but firm: "Let's take a step back. Before we traveled through time, we were just classmates and didn't have much connection. All the bonds and feelings were cultivated during the five hundred years of time travel. The one who adventured with us and went through countless things was you, not Ye Ziyou of the past, or anyone else. You are you, a part of our class, and no one can replace you."
"I..." Ye Ziyou clenched his hands hanging at his side into fists, and then slowly released them under the trusting gaze of his companions, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He suddenly wanted to laugh, laugh at his own stupidity over the past hundred years, and laugh at how lucky he was to have met such a group of family members.
"By the way, who brought the evil demon in?" Su Mingya asked puzzledly.
"I'm sorry, it's us."
"Who is speaking!"
The sudden sound startled everyone. They subconsciously took a defensive stance, watching the space in front of them twist and change, and finally became completely stunned when they saw the familiar faces that appeared one after another.
"This face looks so familiar..." Bai Luo murmured, "I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?"
"Are you stupid? Isn't this exactly the same as the sculpture of the 'God of Destiny' in your temple..." Si Jishi's subconscious complaint was choked in his mouth, and he couldn't utter a single syllable.
The twenty-four people in front of me... no, twenty-four gods all had different expressions, some smiling, some angry, and some cold. The only thing in common was their unchanging tenderness when they looked at Team Nine.
Bai Luo quietly moved closer to Si Jishi and whispered, "I feel like they are looking at Teacher Rui?"
Si Jishi nodded cautiously: "I think so too."
"That's not the point!" Gao Shu nudged Bai Luo's waist with his hand, and was the first to stand out, bowing respectfully in the direction of the 'God of Destruction': "Olivan Godd Collison, the 328th Pope of the 'Temple of Destruction', pays homage to my Lord and to all the gods."
It was not until then that Bai Luo, Zhou Ruo and other unreliable saints and saintesses finally realized their mistake and quickly paid their respects to the gods they believed in.
The leading "Goddess of Life" smiled and interrupted Zhou Ruo's salute: "You are our souls, we are one, why do you need to salute?"
"Ah?" Zhou Ruo stared at the "Goddess of Life" in a daze, her mind going blank.
Then the twenty-four gods who were revered in the Parna Foundation all bowed to Rui Hang with excited expressions: "Father God, we finally see you!"
Rui Hang: “…”
"As expected of Teacher Rui, she can remain so calm even when being saluted by the 'Twenty-Four Gods'!" Su Mu whispered to Lin Yuan beside him in surprise.
Lin Yuan: "...Is there a possibility that Teacher Rui is just stupid?"
Su Mu: "...I think what you said makes sense."
Not only Teacher Rui, but everyone in Class 9 was shocked by this sudden news.
Compared with Teacher Rui's identity, the fact that they are the souls of the "Twenty-Four Gods" doesn't seem to be that exciting anymore.
——The man who can be called "Father God" by the "Twenty-Four Gods" is the "God of Creation"!
"Wait, if we are the souls of gods, then wouldn't it be better for us to return to our identities as gods?" Bai Luo adapted to his new identity very quickly: "Wouldn't it be easy to use the power of gods to stop the fusion of the two worlds?"
"Unfortunately, we can't." The 'Goddess of Life' sighed with compassion for the world in her eyes.
"...I think we need a reasonable explanation." Rui Hang, who had finally recovered from his shock, suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and asked.
"We will follow your will." The 'Goddess of Life' bowed to Rui Hang again and said in a deep voice: "This world - the Earth and Parnaki - is about to perish."
Class Nine: “…”
The topic changed so quickly that they couldn't react!
...
From the mouths of the "Twenty-Four Gods", Team Nine heard a completely new story that was completely different from the history of Parnagi and subverted their understanding.
Everything goes back to the beginning of the world, when the "Creator God" created the world and created twenty-four gods using twelve ribs.
For the twenty-four gods, the "Creator God" is their father and their mother, and they love Him deeply.
Twenty-five gods lived freely between heaven and earth, but soon the "God of Creation" discovered a problem.
——In His prophecy, the future will be a world full of vitality and laughter.
The energy that fills the space between worlds - the existence that later generations called "magic". Wherever it exists, the birth of life will be suppressed.
In order to make the "Creator God" happy, the "Twenty-Four Gods" imitated the "Creator God" and used themselves as templates to create various lives.
The world soon became lively. The created races loved them and built temples for them and the "God of Creation" on the earth. They brought wisdom to the created races.
But the good times didn't last long, the madness brought by magic made the gods helpless. No matter how they intervened, they could not stop these tribes from going to destruction.
At that time, they simply defined everything as an "accident". Thus, the second group of people was created. They had completely different appearances, cultures, and languages from the first group, but they eventually developed in the same direction until they were destroyed again.
Just as the Creator God loves his children, in the eyes of the Twenty-Four Gods, those creations are also their children. Every time a civilization disappears, they will be extremely sad.
So the "Twenty-Four Gods" asked the "God of Creation" to save their children.
The "God of Creation" agreed, and He divided the world into two - later generations called them "Earth" and "Parnaki", built a barrier between the two worlds, transferred most of the magic power to Parnaki, and created "reincarnation".
This time, the souls no longer have a long lifespan. They live and die on Earth. Afterwards, their souls pass through the seal and come to Parnaki, forgetting their memories on Earth and continuing to live and practice as spirits. The huge magic power makes up for the loss of their souls during life, and when their power returns to its peak, they will return to Earth again and be "reborn".
At that time, the creatures on Earth called Parnaqui the "Underworld", and Parnaqui called "rebirth" "ascension".
The isolation of the two worlds and the establishment of the reincarnation system did allow this civilization to last longer. However, the destruction of civilization was inevitable, regardless of whether there was divine intervention.
But the gods found that the less magic power there was, the longer civilization would survive. So they asked the "God of Creation" for help again. This time, a huge barrier separated the two worlds, and even reincarnation lost its effect. The earth was completely free of magic power, but a strong miracle burst out - life evolved on its own without the intervention of the gods.
This surprise made the "Twenty-Four Gods" begin to try to give up pure creation and bring the life on Earth to Parnaki, hoping that they could gain the same vigorous vitality as they had on Earth.
However, once these creatures came into contact with magic, they began to mutate to varying degrees. After years of evolution, they gradually gained intelligence, and under the contamination of magic, they became crazier than any other creature in the past, and even took the initiative to attack the barrier in an attempt to escape to Earth.
In order to prevent pollution from destroying the two worlds, the "God of Creation" had to forcibly open up a new space, separating this completely polluted and irreparable continent from Parnaki, letting it disappear in the turbulence of time and space.
But the good times did not last long. The many creatures that remained in Parnaqui could not hold on for long and perished again.
Only the creatures on Earth, despite experiencing disasters of varying degrees, are still thriving.
But this does not make the "Twenty-Four Gods" happy.
——The long time and the overdrawn power brought the "God of Creation", who had already lost most of his power in order to create the "Twenty-Four Gods", to the end.
——It turns out that even gods cannot resist the torrent of time, and destruction is the end of all living things.
...
"In Earth's civilization, there is a word that is very suitable to explain all this - entropy." The 'Goddess of Wisdom' said: "The existence of magic is just a catalyst - or in other words, magic is a certain embodiment of entropy."
She sighed, "Unfortunately, we were too confident at the time and never paid much attention to human wisdom. As a result, when everything returned to its irreversible status quo, we realized one thing: the final outcome of the world is destined to be the 'heat death' of maximum entropy. Even gods cannot escape its laws."
“We have forgotten one more thing—destruction also means rebirth.” He fell into a brief silence, his voice revealing endless melancholy: “Back then, we wanted so badly to prevent the death of the ‘God of Creation’ that we made an extremely risky decision.”
"...What is it?" Shen Qiting asked.
"Resurrect our Father."
