Chapter 240: Helvinia's Final Chapter (5K)
The first ray of sunlight at dawn finally dispelled the darkness and sprinkled on the earth.
There was a gentle knock on the door of the room.
"Miss Helvinia, it's time."
The servant standing outside the door said respectfully.
The door was opened.
The servant was about to salute, but he caught a glimpse of Hevinia's face from the corner of his eye and was stunned.
Because only one of Hevinia's eyes was open, and there was a conspicuous scar on the other eye.
Even though it has been treated, the blood stains can still be seen.
"Miss Helvinia? What are you doing..."
"I am ready."
Hevinia responded calmly, but her voice was unusually hoarse, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time, "Lead the way."
After hearing what Hevinia said, the servant did not dare to ask any further questions and knelt on the ground.
"The road has been paved for you." The servant put his head at Helvinia's feet and said in the most humble tone, "Everyone is waiting for you."
Hevinia nodded slightly, but she did not leave immediately. Instead, she turned her head and looked at the windowsill of the room.
The last owl was looking at her with its head tilted. When she nodded gently, it immediately picked up the sealed small box by the window, fluttered away into the sky, and soon disappeared.
"Goodbye." Helvinia said softly in a voice that only she could hear, "Mr. Visas."
After saying that, she turned around, set foot on the road that had been prepared for her long ago, and walked towards the magnificent holy light.
The last inner song has ended.
The entire holy mountain was eerily quiet, as if there was no one there.
But the two sides of the road leading to the ceremony were filled with people kneeling.
They knelt silently, as if they were already dead, like eternal notes, or like keys waiting to be played.
In short, they were silent. The only sound that could be heard on the entire Holy Road was Hevinia's own footsteps. Even the wind and snow stopped at this moment.
Everything stopped for her, everything knelt before her, waiting for her to reach the final step of the sacred road.
Hevinia arrived in front of the Temple of the Seven Tones.
She saw Ulysses who had been waiting in the center of the temple, standing quietly under the holy light.
At least at this moment, he was like the Lord of Holy Sound.
This reminded Hevinia of her last conversation with Bai Wei before she cut off her left eye.
"Do you really think you can succeed as a mortal against a god, Helvinia?"
Helvinia said nothing.
Just like that, I stepped into the holy light.
…
The owl flapped its wings hard in the cold wind.
It received instructions from its owner to take the sealed box out of the academy and into the hands of another person in the shortest possible time.
But at this moment, the box began to shake slightly, as if there was some living thing inside.
The owl tilted its head, and a look of great doubt flashed in its small eyes.
However, as a performer owl, its IQ is much higher than that of its peers. Even if there is something strange in the box, it will not stop it from delivering the box safely.
This is its confidence.
But the box's movements did not stop. Instead, they became larger and larger, and soon reached a point where it could no longer be controlled.
It lowered its head again.
Then an invisible hand was seen reaching out from the box.
…
Ulysses, who had closed his eyes to rest, slowly opened them and looked at Hevinia who was standing in front of him.
Naturally, his gaze was first attracted to Helvinia's empty left eye, but he did not stay there for too long, nor did he ask what was going on like the servant did before. He just chuckled and said, "I heard that injuries and pain always inspire more creative inspiration in the face of adversity... It seems that you have not been idle these two days, Helvinia."
Hevinia did not immediately pay attention to Ulysses, but raised her head and looked at the holy light that pierced the sky above her head.
She had felt it since she stepped into this holy light.
That sacred power that makes people want to kneel down.
But beyond the sacredness, there was a strange feeling—excitement.
Or joy.
So much so that the dust floating in the air seemed to be dancing under this holy light.
"It seems that you have also felt the Lord's joy." Ulysses chuckled and said, "The Lord has seen your notes... golden score, golden sound, ah, the Lord is already looking forward to it."
Perhaps to verify Ulysses' words, Helvinia suddenly felt a strange feeling in her body.
It was as if an invisible hand penetrated her clothes and caressed her body from head to toe.
But her body did not feel any disgust, and the sound bound by the score was as light and beautiful as plucked piano keys.
"The Lord is playing you, Helvinia," Ulysses said with a smile, "He really... likes you very much."
Helvinia raised her head slightly.
But this was not her own will; instead, an invisible hand hidden in the holy light gently lifted her chin.
Even though she didn't see anything, she still felt it.
The Lord of Holy Sound was admiring her.
“The Lord really likes you.”
Ulysses repeated it again, and there seemed to be a hint of regret in his words, but it quickly disappeared. He closed his eyes, holding his cane, as if listening to something.
After a while, he opened his eyes again and smiled even more.
"The Lord told me that no matter what the outcome of this final chapter is, He will give you a special reward." Ulysses said, "Helvetia, the Lord really likes you."
Repeat a third time.
But Hevinia's expression remained calm. She listened to all the words quietly and asked, "How should we start?"
"It seems that you are also impatient, Helvinia." Ulysses smiled and stretched out his hand. "If you are ready, then just like me, grab the holy light."
Helvinia held out her hand as well.
In the golden holy light, an invisible scepter quickly condensed and gathered, and then fell into the palm of Hevinia's hand.
Helvinia slowly grasped the scepter.
In an instant, a strange feeling came over me.
Her perspective was rising, rising continuously.
What she saw before her was no longer the smiling Ulysses, nor the Temple of Holy Light and Seven Tones, but the entire academy, the entire holy mountain.
And then to...the entire holy sound.
She saw the kneeling musicians outside the academy and the crawling male and female breeders in the seed area.
Their notes are illusory and clear at this moment.
"Play the final chapter, Helvinia."
Ulysses' voice seemed to come from the distant sky.
"The Lord will sprinkle your music throughout the Holy Sound."
Hevinia gently closed her only remaining eye.
The time has finally come.
In this case,
Then...
The wind blew the robe.
The notes under the robe lit up one by one.
...Bring the last song to the Holy Sound.
…
The final chapter begins.
In the basement of the Temple of Seven Tones, Maggie also heard the prelude to the final chapter.
But Maggie didn't listen, she had her own things to do.
"It's time." She turned her head and looked at the players behind her. "After Hevinia finishes, it will be Principal Ulysses' turn. We should also start to wake him up."
Behind them was a male body covered in dust.
He also has extremely excellent music and scores painted on his body.
This is the work of Ulysses.
However, the soul of this body has been annihilated.
In order to wake him up, Maggie and others need to sacrifice their souls.
But even so, the strength of their souls can only support this body to complete a piece of music.
But as long as I finish that song, it's enough.
Maggie and several other performers began the awakening ceremony.
Their eyes were full of fanaticism.
But at this moment, Maggie felt a white shadow flash past the corner of her eyes.
She turned her head subconsciously, and then saw a snow-white owl, looking at them with its head tilted.
Why is there an owl here?
Maggie felt something was wrong, but before she could think about it, another performer present suddenly spoke out in confusion.
"Wait, listen, what is the song Helvinia is playing?"
…
"It's finally about to begin."
Hero Manor.
When he heard the final chapter, Ivan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
It turned out that the treasure he had bet on Hevinia was not wrong.
She did make it to the end.
As long as she plays the final chapter, the ending cannot be changed.
The Hai Luo family will rise rapidly in prominence.
So, should I continue to treat her as my daughter, or as... my wife?
Ivan subconsciously glanced at Mandy beside him, and more thoughts came to his mind.
Having said that, this final chapter is surprisingly clear.
Clearer than it was twenty years ago.
It seems that the great Lord is also happy about the reappearance of the Seven-tone Divine Comedy.
Ivan thought so.
But soon, he felt something was wrong.
Because the music Helvinia played sounded...
Sound familiar?
He frowned slightly, wondering if he had heard this prelude somewhere before.
Then, his eyes widened little by little.
…
"...'Song for Seeding'?"
Oger's eyes were full of disbelief.
Not only Oger, but everyone in the entire seed zone had a similar expression.
After all, no one in Shengyin knows the song better than the seed area.
No… is that really a song?
It has never been recorded on any musical score, never been formally written down, and does not even have a fixed melody.
There is only disorder, madness and desire.
It was like a person who had no understanding of music was randomly clapping the keys of a piano, or like the inexplicable roar of a wild beast that did not know the rhythm of music.
If the notes on their bodies were not resonating with them, if the melody was not coming from the sacred sound of the sky, people would think they were dreaming.
"Song for Seeding, Song for Seeding!"
The stud breeders who were kneeling on the ground stood up tremblingly and stretched out their hands towards the sky as if they wanted to embrace it.
“The Lord, the Lord hears our voices!”
"Great Lord, Great Lord, please give us seeds!"
They began to shout, to yell, to tremble and to cry bitterly.
In their madness, they even ignored the most basic etiquette and began to seek offspring like wild beasts.
"Assholes! What are you doing?!"
“This is a grand ceremony!”
"You are blaspheming! This is blasphemy!"
The managers immediately rushed over and started punching and kicking the stud breeders.
But it is of no use anymore, the situation is getting out of control, and there is deep fear in the eyes of the managers.
Because the final chapter is still playing in their ears, and the notes in their bodies are still resonating with it.
The final chapter that takes place once every twenty years does not bring with it the sacredness, tradition, and art of the past.
But it is the stench, desire and darkness unique to the seed area.
All the performers of the Holy Sound had hallucinations in the resonance of this moment.
They saw their fellow creatures mating crazily like wild beasts.
I saw the bodies of children that were thrown into the corpse pit or used as feed.
I saw the little hand stretched out from what was probably a cesspool or mud, and the rusty notes on the little hand.
The deepest part, the one that cannot see the light.
At this moment, the sacred sound is spread to the earth and integrated into the notes of every person.
…
"Hevinia!!!"
In the Temple of Seven Sounds, Ulysses let out the most angry roar.
He no longer had the indifference of the past.
At this moment he looked like a mad lion.
"What are you doing!?"
“What are you asking the Lord to listen to?!”
He raised his staff and pointed it at Hevinia, who was enveloped in holy light.
And around him, the originally peaceful and joyful holy light also seemed a little distorted at this moment.
Ulysses could feel it.
Helvinia could feel it, too.
The Lord of Holy Sound is also angry.
This was not the ending He wanted.
This is... blasphemy!
In an instant, incomparable pressure surged from all directions, and the scepter in Hevinia's hand suddenly grew barbs that pierced her hand that was holding the scepter tightly.
The notes that were playing the final chapter were also shaking constantly and could be destroyed at any time.
Lord of Holy Voice,
Really angry.
He wants to take back the scepter given to Helvinia.
He will bring the most severe punishment upon this human being who dares to blaspheme Him.
At this moment, Hevinia also opened her eyes.
The look in her eyes when she looked at Ulysses was no longer calm, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
This was her...taunting.
She was mocking Ulysses, and she was also mocking...
Lord of Holy Sound.
But this is not enough, she is still waiting for the last opportunity.
At the moment before the Lord of Holy Sound was about to take back the scepter, she grabbed the scepter and stabbed it hard into her body.
And this is also...the location of the fourth tone.
Her fourth note was covered with black spots, like several times more concentrated... acne.
Ulysses widened his eyes when he saw this scene.
That's...Karen's virus!?
This guy wants to...infect the Lord of Holy Sound? ! ! !
"You lunatic!" Ulysses shouted, "You want to hurt the Lord with that little virus?! Stupid!"
Helvinia chuckled and pulled off her coat.
Ulysses saw that there was an unactivated...ritual eye on her body.
That is... the eternal note? !
Ulysses finally felt uneasy, but it was too late.
Helvinia activated the Ritual Eye.
The power of all the golden sound players in the history of Holy Sound that has been passed down for thousands of years.
It fell on her.
And Hevinia chose to focus all her strength on the fourth tone.
The fourth tone with black spots.
At that moment, the black stripes suddenly expanded and exploded, spreading rapidly like ink dropped into clear water, instantly polluting the holy light!
With the help of the holy light, it instantly spread to all the performers who were listening to the final chapter.
…
"What is this?!"
"Isn't this Karen's disease? Why is it growing out of my body!"
"No, my notes, my notes will be ruined!"
"Maggie! Maggie! Think of a way!"
…
"Ahhhhhh! What the hell is going on?!"
"Ma'am! Please don't panic."
"Get out! It's on you too!" Mandy looked at Ivan in shock, "Ivan, what the hell is going on?!"
Ivan sat on the ground in a daze, his eyes looking dead.
…
"What the hell?! What's on these bastards?!"
"Boss! You have it too!"
"… Bastards! These guys must have infected me! They must have infected me!"
The enraged manager grabbed the whip and rushed towards the breeding male and female.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Oger watched as the seed area fell into chaos.
Then he raised his head again and looked at the holy light.
I saw that where the eternal holy light was, there were also patches of black spots, and they were spreading rapidly.
This gave Oger an idea so crazy that he couldn't believe it.
The Lord of Holy Sound... was also infected.
…
Ulysses was furious.
But he didn't dare to attack Hevinia at all.
Because at this moment Hevinia was like a huge bomb, he didn't know what the consequences would be if he rashly killed Hevinia.
But he could feel that the Lord was also infected.
Karen's virus was originally a terminal illness targeting musical notes.
The entire Holy Sound has no way to cure this disease, and it can indeed be considered a poison in terms of musical notes.
But Ulysses did not expect that Hevinia would attack the Lord of Holy Sound in this way.
Because it is just a virus from one person, there is no possibility that it can affect the Lord of Holy Sound who is God. Even in the final chapter where the Lord and the performer are in the closest contact, it is absolutely impossible.
But Helvinia used the Note of Eternity!
She has infinitely strengthened this virus characteristic to the maximum extent.
With this infinite blessing, Hevinia actually turned the impossible into possible.
This madman turned himself into a bomb and wanted to use it to kill the Lord of Holy Sound!
She had no intention of going back alive!
Ulysses looked at Helvinia, whose body was rapidly disintegrating, and roared, "It's no use, Helvinia! This virus can't kill the Lord!"
Hevinia raised her head with difficulty, looked at Ulysses, and said softly: "I have never thought of killing Him. That is not something I can do. The only ones I want to kill... are you."
Just... us?
When Ulysses heard this, his pupils condensed again.
Then it suddenly occurred to him.
There is only one way to stop this virus.
It is also the only one.
"Bang".
He heard a crisp sound.
When the black spot was about to spread to the sky, the holy light was broken.
Ulysses stood there blankly, looking at the sky above his head.
There's nothing there.
This made him realize.
The Lord of Holy Sound withdrew his gaze.
as well as……
"Bang".
There was another crisp sound.
He lowered his head.
Seeing my own notes breaking apart,
Eventually turned to dust.
“This is the final chapter I dedicate to you.”
Helvinia still managed a bright smile on her face, even though the vitality was rapidly fading.
"Are you satisfied, Mr. Principal?"
