.
"I am going to die." She said softly, "My fingers are on the ground. Isaiah will find them soon. Then my life will be completely over... But I can't die like this. I haven't finished my work yet..."
As she spoke, Hevinia heard a rustling sound, as if some large reptile was approaching her little by little.
Helvinia was immediately alert.
"Don't be nervous. There's no way I can hurt you." Diana said, "I'm here to help you get out of here. I know you're there."
Seeing that Diana was able to determine her location, Hevinia stopped being silent and asked, "Why are you helping me?"
"Oh, it's a woman?" Diana's weak voice was filled with surprise, "Why is it a woman... Ah, I see, you are the one Rocky mentioned... So that's how it is, so that's how it is... You are not hands, eyes, or tongue, we all misjudged... But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
Helvinia heard a long sigh.
"I'm here to tell you one last thing, and it's also your last chance to stop Isaiah." Diana continued, "In the deepest part of the earth, in front of the final gate, there is a deep well with water in it. It's called the Fountain of Redemption."
"The Fountain of Redemption?" Helvinia asked. "What does that do?"
"Call the gods."
Hevinia's pupils suddenly froze.
"The gods have long since stopped caring about worldly affairs, even the Land of Contract that they built with their own hands." Diana said, "If you want them to know everything, the only way is to kill Ainhegar, lift the seal on Visas's remains, and... pray to the Fountain of Redemption, which will bring you ultimate redemption."
The ultimate redemption?
The name made Helvinia guess something.
"Anyone who arrives at the final gate has already committed a heinous crime. Once the gods know about it, they will be punished most severely and suffer true divine punishment." Diana whispered, "But if you are willing to turn back and pray and repent to the Fountain of Redemption, you will be able to receive the final redemption. All sins will be cleansed, all past mistakes will be forgiven, and you will receive great grace from the gods. The gods will promise you everything you want."
Sure enough, Hevinia guessed it right.
"That is to say, as long as you reach the Fountain of Redemption and pray to the gods, the gods will personally kill Isaiah." Diana said, "And you will get everything, power, strength, money, anything you want, it won't be a problem."
"Why don't you go?" Helvinia asked.
"Because the Land of Contract is not on the final list of salvation, when someone can reach the Fountain of Salvation, there is only one possibility, that is, the Land of Contract is no longer there." Diana's voice became lower and lower, "Besides, I can't do anything anymore... How about it, do you agree?"
Before Hevinia could say anything, there was a sudden tremor. She looked up and saw a skeleton-thin but tall figure suddenly lifted up a collapsed pillar, creating a gap for Hevinia to leave.
But this opening leads to the abyss.
"It's up to you to choose." Diana's voice came from the skull. "Whether you pray to the Fountain of Redemption or overturn the well and refuse redemption, it has nothing to do with me. I am just fulfilling the last contract of the Land of Contracts... Leave here."
After a brief hesitation, Hevinia finally stood up with difficulty and walked out of the hole Diana had opened.
Then she wanted to say something else to Diana, and she heard another sigh of relief.
"My mission is finally over."
"Mom, you shouldn't have given me that finger."
After saying that, the pillar smashed down violently, smashing Diana's last servant into several pieces.
When Hevinia looked back, she could no longer sense any signs of life.
…
Whoosh.
