Chapter 188
The sudden change on the opposite side left the old prime minister confused, especially his own screams, which made him feel weird and absurd.
——How could he speak in such a cowardly tone?
But then the old prime minister came to his senses and was sure that his spirit was quite strong and most problems would not shake his mind.
As for the remaining situation, there is no easy solution.
The old prime minister immediately began to analyze the other party's words based on what had just happened on the public channel. Not long after, he had a horrible guess.
"——That ritual is not an escape from the game of God at all, it has the opposite effect, right!"
The old prime minister suddenly stood up and roared into the public channel.
Everyone present, including Ethan, was stunned for a moment, and their faces suddenly lost color.
In the private channel, whether it was the emperor, the president, or the gentlemen in Congress, they all seemed to have a collective stroke and could not control their hands and feet.
Either he dropped the cup or he fell off the chair.
The old prime minister opposite responded to the old prime minister's words with a whimpering voice like an old wolf.
He couldn't even speak anymore.
The old prime minister was speechless for a moment.
He personally killed the last hope of the entire universe, causing all the teams to be wiped out...
This responsibility was so huge that it was hard for him to accept it.
"...Yes, yes, the whole town is full of believers of that god. They are like those cultists, and they are incredibly fanatical about the god."
The old Prime Minister heard Ethan mumbling to himself.
He flipped through the holographic screen quickly, not caring about whether his voice was heard by people on the public channel. He directly opened the diary and flipped forward quickly. After finding a certain page, he immediately read it.
"'Kriyya is my best friend, but I don't understand why everyone in his family treats him badly. Kriyya doesn't like greasy food, but his family forces him to eat it. He is the same age as me, but he weighs three times as much as me.'"
"'Kriyya has a really good personality. He would give me chocolates and read with me these big books that no one else likes to read. The writings of the gods are easy to learn, so why don't they like it?'"
"'Mom and Dad don't let me play with Keriya anymore. Is it because Keriya has grown too fat? But this is obviously none of his business! Tomorrow is the God's blessing ceremony. I hope Keriya can be blessed by the God at the God's blessing ceremony.'"
The more I translated it, the uglier the expressions of the people present became. I originally thought it was just a child's diary, but now reading it again gives me a weird feeling.
And Ethan's expression was becoming more and more horrified, and the old prime minister could tell just by looking at him that he was overwhelmed by the amount of information.
At this time, Ethan turned over the page, and the text on the next page, which Ethan had already translated, was extremely difficult to read as if he was seeing it for the first time.
"'Keriya is finally free! This is great! The parents who abused Keriya before were also punished because of the XX of the gods to Keriya! They were XXed by the gods just like XX. - But the gods don't seem to like cleanliness, XX is everywhere, dirty.'"
The last four words were what Ethan didn't know how to translate. Ethan originally said that these were just some negative words that had no impact on the overall situation, but combined with the other party's experience...
"-- Prime Minister, you are right," Ethan's voice seemed to be forced out from his throat, "I'm afraid that ceremony is not a victory in escaping from God."
"…It is a ritual to summon the power of the gods."
"And... the statue we have here should just be a projection of the power of the gods in their world." Ethan projected the translated text of another world that was not favored by the gods onto the holographic screen.
"The statue probably doesn't have much intention to attack, but the ancient god's special energy should be equally powerful."
The pupils of the people present suddenly shrank.
If the so-called half of the ancient god's energy had caused the murals to go wild and forced Aaron and the expedition members to run around, then the real ancient god's energy...
Everyone remembered the screams that had just appeared in the public channel.
They had never been so aware.
——What a horrible thing they just passed by.
*
Just after Ethan explained the truth about the ritual, several screams were heard again in the public channel.
"ah--!"
Among the explorers who were fleeing from the scene, several had tentacles bursting out of their throats, and one had a huge mouth opened directly from his waist and abdomen, almost biting through his protective suit.
The internal organs almost burst out of that huge mouth, but fortunately the big mouth closed in time.
By the time Ye Ruian and his team escaped to the end of the place he had just pointed to, there were only two team members left with them.
The two team members were about to collapse because of the scene just now, but fortunately, after arriving at the place, they could no longer see the shadow of the statue, and no screams were heard in the public channel.
They also breathed a sigh of relief temporarily.
Aaron finally seemed to relax a little. Everyone could see that he had been tense.
Aaron, who had relaxed, comforted the two explorers next to him with a smile.
"I have just left a locator on the statue. It is quite far away from us now. Let's find a place to rest for the time being."
This made the two team members on the side nod their heads frantically. He really needed to rest and let his brain think carefully.
At this time, Ye Ruian raised his hand: "I know there is a place here that is temporarily safe."
Ye Ruian pointed to the house next to them and said, "This should be a good place to rest for a while. We have been here before, and it didn't trigger anything."
Ye Ruian took out a diary and said.
"This diary was found in this residence. It just so happens that I missed collecting some information before. Perhaps I can find a solution to this ritual from these materials?"
Ye Ruian said.
The other two expedition members had no objections. They were quite uneasy about being in an open space, fearing that the statue would suddenly appear.
Aaron had even less objection.
The commanders on the starship did not cause any trouble at this time, but just asked them to observe the statue carefully.
Just after they entered, when Ye Ruian was searching for information, a righteous voice sounded on the public channel.
"I'm here to save you—where are the others?"
Aaron's voice on the other end sounded on the public channel, which made Aaron pause. The other two team members also noticed this. They understood Aaron's feelings very well. When they heard their own voices coming from the other end of the communication for the first time, they were also very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Aaron on the other side didn’t seem to want to communicate with Aaron here - or maybe he didn’t even know that the current public channel was no longer the same as before?
Everyone on the starship was also thinking about this problem, but they soon shifted their attention to the fact that only two people survived this time on the opposite side, and they were not elites, but two ordinary explorers.
The other two explorers on the opposite side did not speak. Aaron on the opposite side seemed to get the answer from their expressions and spoke after a long time.
"...Okay, I understand. Let's go home first."
Aaron's helpless and desperate words made the people on the starship silent for a long time.
They were originally angry about the people from the parallel universe trying to harm them, but now they are reaping the fruits of their own actions, which makes them feel complicated.
Some people think they deserve it, some feel scared, and some secretly sympathize with the other party. It’s not that they really want to help the other party, but they think that it is their own self in a parallel universe and unconsciously put themselves in their shoes.
Fortunately, everything should be over soon.
Everyone in the conference room was thinking.
However……
“Ahhhhh——!” screams were heard, and everyone subconsciously looked down at the public channel, then discovered that something was wrong with the source of the sound.
This time it was not the opposite side, but the two remaining explorers on Ye Ruian's side who screamed.
This caused everyone to look at the holographic screen.
The next second, I saw an astonishing scene.
——I saw the skulls of several expedition members growing bigger like balloons, and gradually turned into two strange big-headed dolls.
Then the big-headed doll's head was peeled off like a banana - the clear brain tissue was immediately exposed.
Fortunately, the speed of the exoskeleton transforming into the treatment cabin was getting faster and faster, and the treatment cabin covered the entire body of the two team members in time before the brain tissue was exposed.
And the sound of painful wails was heard again in the treatment cabin.
The people on the starship were stunned by this development. How could it suddenly mutate? Why didn't the people on the other side scream?
Just as they were thinking this, there was a sudden groan of a knife stabbing into something from the opposite side, followed by Aaron's voice of disbelief.
"What happened—and why?!"
Before Aaron on the opposite side could finish his question, the sound of a hard object hitting his brain was heard. He fell to the ground without saying a word, and his flesh made a dull sound as it hit the ground.
Then there was the sound of the knife piercing into flesh again and again.
Everyone on the starship fell silent, but Theodore quickly determined that Aaron must have been attacked by the last two team members.
As for the reason - from the exposed brain tissues of the two players on their side, it can be seen that they are under mental control.
However, not many people on the starship mourned the two explorers - after they came to their senses, they all went to worry about Ye Ruian.
"I'm afraid Admiral Aaron will also mutate now. I need to ensure the safety of Mr. Ye Ruian - just look at the other side to know how important he is."
The Orc Prime Minister said with a gloomy face that he had no feelings for the parallel universe on the other side. He even felt that the other side did not want to die peacefully but increased his workload, which made him want to go crazy.
In other words, the Orc Prime Minister has no ability. If he had the ability, he would have jumped up and thrown a biomass bomb at the opposite side.
But the most critical thing now is Ye Ruian’s safety - Aaron is about to mutate, and God knows whether he is fatal now!
Marshal Xu, who was sitting opposite the orc prime minister, stood up directly.
"I'll go and help."
She said this expressionlessly, taking out her mecha space button in her hand, but before Marshal Xu could leave, Aaron screamed on the holographic screen.
His exoskeleton didn't even have time to close and become a treatment cabin before it was torn apart by a pair of huge snow-white wings stained with golden liquid.
"Hiss——" Everyone on the starship took a breath of cold air.
They all knew how tough the exoskeleton was, but it was actually torn apart by a pair of seemingly soft wings...
It is indeed a mutant product.
Just as the people on the starship were sighing over this, the Holy Star Emperor, who was watching the live broadcast, suddenly held his breath when he saw the golden blood.
Then he saw that everyone at the scene had a nervous expression on their faces, and Marshal Xu immediately got on the mecha and ran towards the ruins, and then he immediately relaxed.
"In this situation, they will only think that this is the result of mutation," the Holy Star Emperor thought, "and they will never guess that Aaron was affected before entering the ruins."
And this is indeed the case. Everyone who is watching the holographic screen is worried whether Aaron will hurt Ye Ruiran, or whether there will be any problems with Aaron's body.
At this time, Aaron on the holographic screen had fully spread his wings, and looked like an angel from some medieval religion.
His eyes were still closed and he looked like he was in great pain, and there were some scratches on his body.
"Now my Saint Admiral has really become a holy angel in mythology." The Holy Star Emperor murmured.
However, the next moment, as Aaron opened his eyes, the area on the wing that was originally thought to be just black feathers opened at the same time.
——The wings are covered with eyes!
At the same time, the scratches on Aaron's body opened, and they were all eyes!
The eyes, which were originally as blue as top-grade sapphires, appeared densely on Aaron's body and wings. Most of the humans who saw them got goose bumps.
The Orc Prime Minister was trembling slightly, and he couldn't even keep the smile on his lips.
The Holy Star Emperor who just said that Aaron looked like a holy angel:...
But now is not the time to worry about Aaron’s eyes. The most important thing now is whether Aaron will hurt Ye Ruian.
"Although Marshal Xu has already set out, the current location of the ruins is too far from our current position, and we don't know if we can get there in time."
Leander muttered.
The people around nodded.
Just when everyone was worried that Aaron would do something bad to Ye Ruian, the blond young man opened his eyes, stood there, staring at the feathers full of eyes for a long time, then turned to look at Ye Ruian who was also a little nervous.
"…Uh, how many bottles of eye drops do you think I'll need in the future?"
The blond young man said dully.
*
Aaron Noah, the famous saint general of the Holy Star Empire, miraculously maintained his sanity in the face of that power.
——Although the idiotic questions he asked after he regained consciousness made everyone on the starship, including Marshal Xu who was heading to the ruins, laugh out loud.
But fortunately, the ending is good. Although everyone on their side except Ye Ruian has mutated, at least everyone is alive.
But parallel universe...
Thinking of the tragic situation in the other parallel universe, the faces of some people present also became heavy.
The Orc Prime Minister is an exception. He has already seen the light of the day when he will be off work, so he has a smile on his face now.
"Once Marshal Xu arrives at the ruins and rescues the people, don't even think about protective excavation. Just use missiles. The capabilities of a ruin will definitely be weaker than before."
The orc prime minister said with a smile.
The old prime minister directly objected and said, "The overlap of time and space has not ended yet. What if the virus from the other side spreads over? Is this responsibility yours or mine?"
When the Orc Prime Minister saw that the old Prime Minister was against it, although he kept his mouth shut, it could be seen from his eyes that after he returned to the Orc Empire, he would persuade the Emperor to submit an application to the Federation.
The old prime minister has already seen that someone in the private channel has been attracted.
He frowned and expressed his opinion: "My suggestion is not to get close to this relic for the time being. The problem of radiation mutation is already difficult to solve. If a highly contagious virus emerges like in the parallel universe, the entire universe will fall."
The old prime minister admitted that he was scared. The tragic situation in the parallel universe really scared him. He did not dare to bet whether there were similarities in the parallel universe, and whether they would experience what they experienced in the parallel universe.
Unfortunately, the experience in the parallel universe did not dispel everyone's thoughts.
Looking at the big shots who had already started arguing in the private chat channel, the old prime minister sighed and was about to turn off the communication when a voice came from the public channel where there should be no one.
"You are right. Don't get close to Him. Never get close to Him. This is not something that can be solved with the current power. His power can penetrate the entire universe. This relic is just a small projection of Him - it is only a little more powerful than the power of his toenails."
The hoarse voice belonging to the old prime minister sounded on the public channel.
“…I thought you were going to commit suicide.”
The old prime minister was silent for a long time and then spoke to himself opposite him.
"Yes, I will, but after I take care of everything - it's not all hopeless just yet."
The old Prime Minister opposite said calmly.
This strange calm made the old prime minister realize that something was wrong. He thought it was unlikely that he would wake up from the collapse so quickly.
But the old prime minister on the opposite side continued calmly.
"I sent all the information to the other three countries, especially the Holy Star Empire and the Orc Empire. Ethan's body was not buried but dumped. Feng Li's act of venting his anger has now become an act of saving his life - by the way, he has broken up with Ye Yu, and because of that kid's act of defecting to the enemy, he trampled him to death with a mecha."
The old prime minister opposite spoke in an eerily calm tone.
"Feng Qi should be listening. Think about whether he had an illegitimate child when he was young. Let's change the prince."
"You want to clone Ye Ruian?" The old prime minister didn't care about the affairs of the Orc Empire. He was not a member of the Empire. He wished that the Orc Empire would have a revolution immediately.
However, if Ye Ruian heard that his parallel self was treated like this, he would probably feel disgust towards all three countries.
"Maybe it's cloning or maybe it's growing his flesh and blood. After all, we no longer have the ability to wipe them out all at once. We can only wear them down bit by bit - maybe even symbiosis."
The old Prime Minister on the other side spoke, his tone still as calm, but there was noise in the background.
"...When will the ceremony end?" This was difficult to answer, so the old prime minister quickly changed the subject.
"In two minutes." The old Prime Minister opposite said calmly, while the noise in the background became louder and louder.
"How do you know it so accurately?" the old prime minister said with a frown.
"Oh, I calculated the speed at which the statue will smash the starship. In about two minutes, he will be able to break through the wall of the starship. And if I, the person in charge, die, the ceremony will be over."
As the background noise grew louder, the old prime minister on the other side said calmly: "In fact, I also wanted to scream, but my brain suppressed my emotions after seeing the statue."
The old prime minister opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
The old prime minister on the opposite side seemed to be a dying man and his words were kind. With a loud noise, the old prime minister on the opposite side said.
"Finally, don't study, don't get close, don't research--"
Before he could finish his words, the public channel was suddenly disconnected.
Everyone in the conference room understood what happened in another time and space.
They stood up silently, took off their hats and observed a moment of silence for the people in another world.
The accounts that were originally marked also disappeared from the list instantly from the gray disconnected state.
It's as if it had never appeared.
Fortunately, there was some good news. On the holographic screen, Aaron, who was flying up and down to collect information, looked at the flesh and blood wrapped in the optical brain on his hands in surprise, gradually returning to its original state.
Ye Ruian returned to the treatment cabin with the books and materials in his arms. He was about to put the books next to the cabin, but when he turned around, he was surprised to find that the serious mutations of the team members in the cabin were gradually subsiding.
The people in the conference room finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the current scene. The old prime minister also calmed down and said.
"Come back first, we'll talk about the exploration later."
"yes!"
After hearing what the old prime minister said, the silver-haired little wolf cub finally laughed happily. Even Aaron's eyes, which could kill any trypophobic person on the spot, could not stop his smile.
The winged blond admiral nodded seriously and set all the treatment cabins to follow. Then he quickly left the mansion with the treatment cabins that contained a lot of information.
Looking at the two people who rushed back quickly and a bunch of treatment cabins, many people in the conference room showed happy smiles.
Until Aaron seemed to have discovered something and asked Ye Ruian.
"...Why is your optical brain still covered in your flesh and blood? Ours has faded?"
Aaron raised the normal light computer on his wrist and asked Ye Ruian, who also looked confused.
"Could it be that it's my physical condition--Ah!"
Ye Ruian was halfway through his words when a dark shadow flashed by and Ye Ruian was immediately abducted by it.
Aaron took a closer look.
"Statue of God!"
God knows why after the ceremony was over, the statue would still appear here and take Ye Ruian away!
Aaron reacted very quickly and set up the treatment cabins, letting them fly back automatically, while he spread his wings and flew quickly towards the statue.
Everyone knows that nothing can happen to Ye Ruian.
Just as the statue arrived at the church and was about to push Ye Ruian into the magic circle, Aaron arrived in time and kicked Ye Ruian aside.
The statue would naturally not give up its prey. Aaron swooped down to the ground with Ye Ruian, then turned around and started fighting with the statue.
Ye Ruian, who had just experienced a terrifying scene, also made a surprising move after he came to his senses.
He simply stood up and casually pulled out a small artillery launcher from his combat uniform.
——Aimed at the base of the statue.
"F*ck you! I have really put up with you and your master for a long time!"
