Chapter 431 450. Maintained by the Glow
Resonating with Mansu is not an easy thing, but fortunately Xu Zhi's current extraordinary level and affinity are already high enough. As the resonance with Mansu increases, she gradually sees a series of lit "threads", like silk threads on a loom, or like branches of the world tree.
The "lines" formed a huge torrent. Xu Zhi stared at the torrent, as if he had become an extremely small existence.
And at the end of the torrent is the glory.
Her senses were overloaded, and Xu Zhi even felt "suffocated" for the first time in a long time. You know, she didn't need to breathe air at all now. This also led to the fact that when Xu Zhi sensed that other people were trying to approach her, the sensory overload caused her to react most violently. She attacked the newcomer without saying a word.
The violent wind whipped up a raging fire, and the gray flames instantly engulfed the invader's body. The invader was obviously caught off guard by Xu Zhi's direct approach, and struggled with the flames for a long time before extinguishing them. However, in order to show her "friendliness", she did not show any malice towards Xu Zhi, who attacked her directly without saying a word, but spoke in a friendly manner:
"Why did you attack me the moment you saw me this time?"
Xu Zhi took the initiative to break the resonance when she sensed the breath of others. Now she had recovered from the state of sensory overload. When she heard the tone of the person who came, she vaguely felt a sense of familiarity.
"lamp?"
She asked, narrowing her eyes.
The other party nodded: "Although it is just a clone, it can also be regarded as me."
"What do you mean by this time? The agent before was you?!"
Xu Zhi keenly sensed the hidden meaning in her words and immediately understood what she wanted to convey.
That agent, is she herself?
[Deng] smiled slightly and did not deny it.
"What do you want to say when you tell me this?"
The clone of [Deng] looked somewhat embarrassed. After all, it was only a clone, and Xu Zhi had not held back. She seemed to know that time was running out and Xu Zhi had reached a level sufficient to hear these secrets, so she stopped pretending to be a riddler and said bluntly:
"You should be able to guess that we have many plans for ascension and glow."
"Some of these plans have failed, some have achieved some results, and some are still in progress."
"And I'm tired of it."
[Light] said this, his eyes revealing genuine fatigue.
"I can sense that if this continues, everything will be destroyed in the conflict, and no one will be able to obtain the right to ascend."
"I am not afraid of death. Life and death are just a journey for me. The only thing I don't want is for the world to be devastated by the conflicts between gods."
Xu Zhi was a little surprised, but not too surprised.
Such remarks are really too much.
"So, you were the one who saw the prophecy, and you asked Jiang Qing to guide me to the Lost Land Research Institute?"
[Deng] nodded. "The experiment there cannot continue. It's the wrong direction. If it bears disastrous consequences, it will bring about countless disasters and wars."
"Even if this world doesn't perish because of the gods' conflict, it will still plunge into dire straits because of opening Pandora's box."
She had actually already considered what would happen after resolving this dispute.
Should we say it is worthy of being called a [lamp]?
But Xu Zhi didn't dare to completely believe her words, even though she had shown actions corresponding to her words several times.
"So what do you want to do by looking for me?"
"I want you to end this."
[Deng] said frankly.
"If the original plan continues, things will only get worse. You are the only person who is not in the star chart. Only you may be able to break this deadlock."
"I can tell you the current situation, but I cannot tell you their plans. Everything they say must be known."
"You just need to know that even the gods are not united."
"I will not get involved in this dispute. When necessary, I will help you if you can show me hope of ending everything."
Then she moved a little closer and told Xu Zhi some news that she needed very much at the moment.
for example.
[Moth] has not formed an alliance with anyone, or he may have secretly formed an alliance with someone. No one knows what [Moth] is thinking, but he is obviously also obsessed with ascension.
[Ren] and [Qi] have already reached some kind of cooperation, but [Deng] feels that when necessary, [Ren] will easily betray [Qi], and [Qi] may not be absolutely loyal.
Although [Xin] is also obsessed with ascension, compared with other people, he is still quite upright.
[Zhu] and [Dong] are two relatively silent lone rangers, each with their own intentions and plans.
Normally, they would occasionally contact each other to find ways to [ascend]. On the surface, they were partners, but in reality, they were competitors who were wary of each other.
But at present, they are still working together, because
"The threat of the cup is too great."
She revealed a hint of self-mockery in her words: "Perhaps, when people stand at a certain height, they will lose themselves."
"You probably don't know."
She looked at Xu Zhi, her eyes, full of wisdom and rationality, seeming to say something: "The extraordinary people in the past were not as glamorous as they are now."
"We used to have to cannibalize our own kind, eating raw meat and drinking blood like the cup, in order to get promoted."
"At that time, the relationship between ordinary people and extraordinary people, and between high-level extraordinary people and low-level extraordinary people, was that of prey and hunter."
"But all of this was changed when we ascended to godhood. The rules were reversed, eliminating the bloodthirsty nature of all transcendents except the Cup. Later transcendents only needed energy to ascend, and the rituals became civilized, no longer requiring blood, flesh, and sacrifice."
Xu Zhi raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. She thought that she probably knew what these gods were thinking at that time.
"I originally wanted to save this chaotic world. Some people are like me. Some are motivated by greater achievements and the recognition of the Glory. And some simply think that change is a very interesting thing."
"Only the cup has never made the same decision as us."
It's very interesting. The gods have modified the rules for the extraordinary beings for various purposes, but now it seems that those actions, whether out of interests or good intentions, seem to have become obstacles to their ascension today?
"It was only much later that we realized that for Hui Guang, being primitive and animalistic didn't necessarily mean something bad."
"Rather, it's the man-made rules that the Radiance doesn't recognize."
Xu Zhi felt that this was not entirely true. What [Light] said was correct. The glow would not recognize or disrecognize man-made rules. They were too weak for the glow.
In her perception, Huiguang does not feel displeased with human behavior. Even if capable superhumans keep other superhumans in captivity to build a slaughterhouse, there is no "right or wrong" in Huiguang's eyes.
The "great achievements" that the gods were so proud of were nothing more than a trivial matter in Huiguang's eyes.
Whether or not they eliminate the extraordinary people's bloodthirsty instincts and those cruel methods of promotion, it does not mean anything to Huiguang. It is just a certain change in human extraordinary people.
The glow does not care about humans, cats, or dogs. It keeps the world running.
No pigeons!
You can stock up and review the previous foreshadowing. Some of the brains can no longer remember them.
