Chapter 83 Three Notes Make the Undead Cry
"But the fire will eventually go out, and then only darkness will remain,"
"The light cannot shine upon the world, and the night continues endlessly."
The blazing primordial fire jumped without any warning.
The picture seemed to be pulled out frame by frame. With each beat, the flame became weaker and smaller, until it was like a candle in the wind.
Boundless darkness encroaches from outside the frame inwards, and something creepy is brewing and surging within it, until finally, the darkness will completely swallow up the last flame of light.
Leon was fidgeting, a deep fear made him sweat and his golden hair turned completely dull.
Before he touched the second bonfire, he would never have imagined that he would see such a scene.
Such a glorious Age of Fire was clearly filled with infinite vitality. The intelligence they had previously collected, whether it was the [Thunder Gun] or the [Oath of Gold and Stone], the stories depicted in them were all full of hope and light. The gods and heroes would be immortal.
But why, why did the original fire suddenly go out?
It's just two short sentences, why do they make people feel so desperate?
This turn of events poured cold water on him. He seemed like a clown when he had previously said that the Age of Fire would never end.
It doesn't matter if he's a clown or not, the key question is - why did the First Flame go out?!
If the First Fire was extinguished, what would happen to our world now?
Looking back at the others, their reactions varied.
But the most excited one was undoubtedly the Fire Monk. When the first sentence sounded, his smile froze on his face. After the scene of the first fire declining appeared, he knelt directly on the ground, shaking like a sieve, as if he would shout in despair "This is impossible" in the next second.
His willpower told him not to shout at this moment and not to disturb the campfire telling the history of the past.
Since our world still exists, it means that the First Flame must be safe and sound at present!
I guess so.
Even though he tried to remain calm, he couldn't help but feel panic in his heart.
He turned his head to look at other people, trying to find common ground, and felt better when he saw that they also looked panicked.
The Knights of Holy Light, fanatical followers of the God of Holy Light, are the people in the exploration team who most disagree with the Age of Fire. They believe that these images are false and even commit the heinous act of desecrating the bonfire.
But at this moment, his eyes also revealed shock, anxiety, fear, and even sadness.
Finally he closed his eyes, pretending to be unmoved.
Stellan, in terms of her yearning for the Age of Fire, is second only to Leon. Her reaction at this moment is no different from Leon's, and even more exaggerated.
"Those things that hide under the illumination of fire are always coveting the first fire."
"When the flames are extinguished and the world returns to darkness, the abyss will reappear in the world, and the age of the deep sea is coming."
The flames suddenly went out, and darkness swept across the world like a tide.
The world seemed to have returned to the lightless period before the First Fire was ignited and ruled by the immortal ancient dragons, but this time the situation was different.
The powerful gods will disappear in the long darkness, and as for humans
This is a desperate time.
Leon and his friends saw the abyss gushing out from the ground, and bizarre abyss creatures running rampant. Without the suppression of fire, the ghosts and monsters danced wildly in ecstasy.
The prosperous royal city became dilapidated and the bustling crowds eventually disappeared.
A ring of darkness quietly appeared on people.
"A cursed ring of darkness began to appear among the people."
The sound suddenly stopped, and the picture became as dark as an abyss, leaving no hope at all.
Everyone's heart was filled with an emotion called "despair". For a moment, they forgot to speak and had no energy to discuss what the "Deep Sea Era" and "Ring of Darkness" were.
After all, a great era came to an end before them, and like an epic ending in tragedy, the audience was all saddened.
Leon's cracked lips trembled. He wanted to say something to cheer everyone up, but he found that he was the least energetic one.
The immersive feeling brought by the bonfire is extremely powerful, and its emotional impact cannot be matched by simple video recording.
Roger, who was the most caring, came to his senses first. He patted the silent Drew and comforted him, "Think positively. Aren't we still alive now? Maybe the deep sea era mentioned in the video has never arrived, or maybe it means..."
This shows that the images shown by the bonfire are not real history at all.
He didn't dare say this out loud, for fear that the excited crowd would beat him to death.
But there are indeed many doubts in the image. Even if the history of two thousand years ago is so incomplete, it is impossible that nothing about the reason for the birth of the world, the names of the ancient gods, and those magnificent buildings will be passed down.
The first lesson for all magicians is to look at everything rationally.
But what if it is just a coincidence that these images are real history, but have not been passed down for some reason?
Roger had a hunch that once the news here spread, the world would be divided into two factions.
One group believes that the image is real, while the other group believes that it is fake, and then they engage in an endless argument over the truth or falsehood.
Anyway, all the previous history is gone. As long as there is some evidence, the inference is reasonable, and there are many people supporting it, there will be people supporting it even if you say that the world was created by tomato spaghetti flying in the universe.
Roger suddenly frowned because he found that the image shown by the campfire had not disappeared and the scene was still pitch black.
Is this a problem? Or what?
Just when everyone was silent, music suddenly sounded.
"Thump, thump, thump"
There are only three notes, but everyone can feel the sadness contained in them, and it makes people cry.
The next moment, the flames suddenly ignited! Its scale was no less than the initial fire.
The blazing flames immediately dispelled all the darkness. The evil spirits fled back underground in panic. The abyss that surged like a wave receded, and the whole world regained its light!
Before the crowd could recover from the sudden change, they saw a pair of large hands holding up flames.
No, he was not holding up the flame, but the flame was burning from his body!
One second before the video ended, people finally saw the owner of the big hand.
Gwyn, the King of Sunshine!
"For the survival of the world, heroes are marching forward one after another, and the battle begins."
"The journey of passing on fire."
From then on, the image finally disappeared.
Roger saw his own expression clearly through the reflection of the crystal clusters on the ground.
In fact, you don't need to look to know, without a doubt, it must be -
stunned.
