Chapter 200
"……All right."
The three souls looked at each other, and the one who looked calmer and had only one arm left said, "You must have met Siu-Nino before to be able to find this place."
When Carterfield was still there, they were able to take a look at the situation outside, and of course saw the whole process of the cooperation between the descendants and Siu-Nino, which almost pissed them off to death - especially when those guys decided to suck blood from another world in a sinister way.
Carterfield started cursing at that moment. Do they think that the world consciousness of that world is just there to do nothing? People must have noticed them a long time ago, and they were not dealt with only because they did not have the time to invest in them and were waiting to deal with them at the most appropriate time in the future.
for example--
The coming of the savior.
The black-haired boy smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know a little bit of basic information. As for the past of this dungeon and the grudges with the gods and the devil, I have already found out."
The three of them tacitly agreed not to think about how the black-haired boy asked this question. They had all lived for a long time and there were some things they didn't need to know or understand so clearly. They just continued to speak naturally, "Indeed, our grievances began with the attack of the Demon King, but the grievances between the Demon King and the Gods started even earlier."
"Do you know the Second Demon King?"
Su Xingyuan: "That fallen angel? He seemed to be a member of heaven."
"You are right. The positions and resources of the gods are limited, and the kingdom of God can only accommodate six gods. The fallen angel in hell is the unlucky one who was plotted against. He was quickly polluted after being plotted against and betrayed. He went from being the spokesperson of holiness and hope to one of the lords of hell, and also participated in the subsequent invasion. But if I have to say, his methods are actually the mildest compared to the other five demon kings."
The one-armed man shook his head and said, "You know, the other lords in Hell would never welcome such a powerful character to appear out of nowhere and snatch resources from them, not to mention that this guy was once a member of the high and mighty gods. They secretly hate the gods for throwing everything into Hell and treating it as a garbage dump. Later, with the continuous covert actions of the Second Demon King, they became even more dissatisfied with the gods."
Su Xingyuan: "Later, the invasion of other worlds began, and the hypocrisy of the gods exacerbated the situation."
He smiled and said, "They will probably intervene when the demon kings are about to break into a world, pretending to protect the natives of that world, attack the demon kings, or even set up barriers to intercept them, but after the show is over, they will take the origin of the world and run away, right?"
The so-called "you get to eat the meat while others don't even think about drinking the soup".
"...How do you know so clearly?" The old man with a relatively intact body couldn't help but ask, "How many times have you met them?"
"Guessed." The black-haired boy grinned, then showed a reminiscent expression: "But it is true that we have a deep understanding of each other."
The old man suddenly thought of something: "You're not going to fight with Siu Ninuo directly, are you?"
Su Xingyuan: "I killed Him."
Old man: “…”
Old man: “???”
"Shouldn't it be? How could you kill Him? You are a real human being!" The old man's soul body circled around him in disbelief, as if observing something: "You don't have any other mixed-race blood?"
Su Xingyuan blinked: "I should really be a pure-blooded human."
"I am indeed limited by the human body." When he said this, the black-haired boy's expression remained calm: "If I don't deal with this problem, I'm afraid I will have to kill two more demon kings."
Old man: “…”
He said expressionlessly: "We attacked together but couldn't kill a single demon king."
Although they had to face off against the unweakened Demon King's army and protect their people at the same time, their starting point was much higher than that of the black-haired boy. The fact that the human in front of them could achieve this level now meant that... the original plan was correct.
"Just lucky." Su Xingyuan brushed off the topic lightly, and then asked the next question directly: "How do you know that the one who comes here must be the savior? Where did you get this information? How credible is it?"
The three of them looked at each other and smiled with some complicated expressions. The man with half his head missing paused, and finally spoke: "It's Carterfield. His ability... you can understand it as semi-omniscience. I think there should be people in the outside world who have awakened similar abilities. When he was here, he was the one who revealed things about the outside world to us, but he has..."
Su Xingyuan suddenly understood something.
He took out the [Book of Wisdom of Carterfield] from his backpack, handed it to the person in front of him, and speculated: "This book... is actually the real key, right?"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, he unsheathed [Mist] and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Who made this pair of swords?"
"I, it's me!" The old man puffed out his chest proudly. "So when I noticed you coming out with a knife, I couldn't help but give it a try! After so many years, my weapon is still as useful as ever. You're lucky. I made it with the fog outside when I first came in here. I used up my last stock of materials, and then asked Tosto to use his space ability to send it outside to find a new owner. I didn't expect it to end up in your hands."
Su Xingyuan hummed, and said calmly, "I stole it."
The old man choked: "..."
No, isn’t the character of this savior a little too advanced?
Can such a method of obtaining things be justified in speaking out loud?
...But now that the world is so crazy, it's normal for whoever is strong to be the boss.
The people next door will not really choose a person who does all kinds of evil to be the father who saves the world.
"...In short, you should have guessed that we are cooperating with the world consciousness of the outside world."
The old man coughed and took over the explanation from his old friend.
"In a world, or in a space, there is a huge difference between having world consciousness and not having it. You can see it from the fact that the demon king invaded two worlds at the same time, and you are still persisting when we are done - of course, this is also related to the extremely fast flow rate of our world." One day outside may take a whole year here.
"According to your world's time, it should have been seven years ago when the Demon King's army was ready and launched its first attack. Because the world's consciousness was not yet mature at that time, the surprise attack resulted in heavy casualties."
Su Xingyuan recalled this incident. That day seemed to be recorded in the students' history textbooks, with the printed words in bloody red.
"But it reacted quickly, directly cutting off the path of the Demon King's army's direct attack and reinforcing the outer barrier of the world. Not only that, it became more and more mature, and in turn used the overflowing demonic energy to catalyze and upgrade the entire world environment."
This is one of the reasons why the number of hunters has gradually increased and gradually become able to compete with the portals.
Su Xingyuan seemed to be thoughtful: "From the beginning to the end, its means have been to set up barriers, transform the world, and promote human evolution... Can't it directly intervene in disputes?" Or to put it more clearly, it will go out and beat people.
That’s why we need a... savior.
"Yes." The old man said, "It was originally the ignorant consciousness born from the entire world. If it could interfere with everything at will, the balance would be broken. So it has no entity and cannot fight in person. It can only passively defend. It can only face the Demon King's army and hope to turn all humans into super soldiers to win the war. But if the gods are added... it will not be able to hold on sooner or later."
"So when it noticed that we were about to be wiped out, it helped us and bought us some time to make arrangements and preserve the fire for the next tribe. In return, we gave it a plan."
Su Xingyuan already vaguely realized what they were talking about.
"The world consciousness has no way to intervene directly. It has the will but no power. However, it can cultivate a savior, a proxy, who can lead humanity through the most difficult times. Then, it is feasible to prolong the battle line. Humanity will have enough time to grow, and this means a turning point."
"Part of Carterfield's ability is foresight, and the rest of us also happen to understand a little about time and space. With our individual abilities, we may not be able to produce results that can change the world, but if we give these abilities to the world consciousness of another world and cooperate with it, it will be a big difference."
"We will try to speed up the flow of time in this space as much as possible, and then use the time difference to select the most suitable savior for the world consciousness."
But it was obviously not picked out.
Because in Carterfield's observations, those saviors who looked good were eventually sent.
They could be said to have plowed the entire world but still couldn't find a suitable candidate. The world consciousness was in a state of panic, which was manifested in the continuous occurrence of natural disasters in a certain two years. However, due to using his abilities too frequently, Carterfield fell into an eternal sleep, leaving only a book to the world consciousness.
Afterwards, the world consciousness disappeared for a while. According to what it conveyed, it seemed to have gone to gain a deeper understanding of the human world and to change the mechanism for cultivating the savior.
When it reappeared, it said that it had found the most suitable candidate, a person it had fished out from a similar world. It was so happy that it cried, as if it had finally found a bright future after surviving a disaster. The book left by Carterfield did not show this person's victory, but at the same time, there was no scene of his failure either. The fate of this human being was actually unpredictable.
They think this is a variable and an opportunity, and the world consciousness probably thinks so too. I don’t know what arrangements it made, how it tricked the people from another world into becoming its own savior, or how it added variables. Anyway, it rarely appeared again afterwards.
In fact, it was Su Xingyuan who was abducted by a ten-dollar game: “…………”
The three of them summarized the situation and sighed, "You are not the son of the world, you are the father of the world. No one else who tried to be the savior survived, and you are the only one who has managed to hold on until now. If the world consciousness had a physical body, it would have hugged you and cried and bowed down to you the moment it discovered you."
Su Xingyuan: “…”
