List of strange talismans

Chapter 226 Old Days 4K
"The strange things in my body come from another great being. His personality is higher than yours. He has never allowed me to reveal information about him. I don't want to offend him. I don't want to bring any trouble to you. To trouble.”

Gu Xiuya replied.

Every word he said was not a lie, but it was contrary to the truth.

Michus was silent for a moment.

After a while, His voice sounded again.

"The god of lies told me that you did not lie."

Gu Xiuya breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, Michus's next words made him nervous again.

"But He also told me that you were not entirely telling the truth."

"You're hiding some kind of truth, right?"

Gu Xiuya did not expect that the God of Lies could even break through the subjective intention in his words.

He could only make up for it: "Your Majesty, what I said is the truth. As for the so-called concealment, I am indeed covering up something, because I don't want the gods to know my relationship with that being."

Michus was silent for a moment again, and then said.

"This is also a true statement. But it is also not true enough."

When he said this, he paused for a moment, with a hint of hesitation in his tone, as if he wanted to ask something, but also hesitated.

Finally, Michus asked.

"Have I seen Him?"

"what?"

"The great being of your mouth."

".seen."

"In the temple?"

".In the temple."

"So it is."

Misius suddenly let out a sigh, as if he had solved a doubt that had been bothering him for a long time.

Gu Xiuya's heart was filled with confusion, and he didn't understand why Misius suddenly realized this.

He obviously just followed Michus's words and said a few words casually.

As he was thinking about it, he heard Misius say: "If that's the case, it makes sense. If I guessed correctly, the thing on you should be another magical thing that he obtained in another world. That's it. Like that secret method that can be effective on gods."

Gu Xiuya felt the certainty in Misius's tone. It seemed that the Titan God was specially explaining to him, hoping to show his perceptive wisdom.

Although He was very reserved.

"Your wisdom is amazing."

Gu Xiuya followed his thoughts and complimented him, but felt a little bit dumbfounded in his heart.

He didn't know how Michus connected him with Dusk.But this undoubtedly touches part of the truth.

However, the Titan God knew nothing about this and regarded dusk as an ally.

Of course, this does not mean that Michus is a fool. The best way to lurk is to use a black book under the lamp.

It can only be said that the city at dusk is deep enough and well hidden.

When Gu Xiuya thought about this, he not only had a hint of doubt.

——[Dusk], who is both mentally and physically powerful, clearly possesses all the necessary qualities for a successful person. Why is he reduced to the point where he has only one arm 300 years in the future?

What happened in the middle?
As his mind turned, Gu Xiuya heard Michus's voice.

"Since that being trusts you so much, I think there is no need for me to doubt you."

"After all, His power is obvious to all."

"Congratulations on passing the test, God of Shuntian."

"Now, the Council of All Gods has a top-secret mission entrusted to you. Are you willing to bear this honor?"

Gu Xiuya was slightly taken aback.

Only then did he understand why Michus suddenly appeared and why he only paid so much attention to him.

secret mission
Gu Xiuya neither agreed nor refused.

He said cautiously: "Can I listen before I decide?"

"Yes. As long as you keep it a secret."

Michus answered cheerfully.

"Your mission is simple: get close to it."

"what?"

"Close to the mountains. Close to, that moon."

Misius's voice echoed in Gu Xiuya's mind: "The insect swarm is fighting another evil creature. It is afraid of being discovered by us and afraid that the intervention of the gods will lead to its failure. For this reason, it shrinks its strength and hides. itself."

"This is exactly why you have been able to stay in this world unharmed for so long."

"But the great twilight knows its tricks, and the light tells us everything."

"A hundred kilometers away from Galanz, under the mountains you can't see, there is something evil that has been crawling under the earth since ancient times, and it has awakened."

"Some fools woke it up while we were in dreamland. Now, the two sides are engaged in a terrible fight."

"You are the only god who stays in this world and is closest to it. The council needs you to go and check the situation of the battle."

"Just checking? What's the purpose of checking?"

"To catch them all, of course."

Michus replied without hesitation.

But then.

Perhaps he felt that his tone was a little too arrogant, or maybe he sensed the suspicion revealed by Gu Xiuya's silence.Mathews quickly added: "This is the best result we can hope for. If things can't be done, both parties will suffer."

"In the dreamland, you have witnessed the power of the insect swarm with your own eyes. It is not that we cannot defeat it head-on, but doing so will cause the group of gods to suffer heavy losses."

"There is an old proverb in mankind: When you cannot defeat two powerful enemies at the same time, the best way is not to fight desperately, but to wait."

"I agree with this statement."

"Under the mountains sleeps an old one. It was a terrifying evil creature that once ruled this planet. Its power far exceeds that of the deep space gods. It is an enemy that we today will find difficult to defeat even if we work together. "

"Now, it's at war with the swarm, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity where we hope to solve both problems at the same time."

the old days
Gu Xiuya suddenly remembered the map he saw when he came to Galanz for the second time.

That map is completely inconsistent with the topography of the future White Star Country.

In the hereafter, there will be no mountains.

"Excuse me, Your Majesty Michus."

Gu Xiuya couldn't help but ask: "What exactly is the old days you are talking about? Why have I never heard anyone mention this kind of thing before?"

Misius was silent for a moment and said: "Unfortunately, I cannot answer your first question."

"Just like fish in the water can never understand why birds can fly in the sky, the huge differences in the nature of life have created a cognitive gap. Even I cannot understand the nature of the past."

"The old days that I know are just some shadows left by its terrifying body in my thoughts."

"For humans, vision is the most important means of gaining knowledge of the outside world. But for gods, the information that vision can carry is minimal. Seeing does not mean understanding."

"Only the strongest among the gods have the qualifications to learn about the nature of the past. They are just qualifications."

Michus paused after saying this. "As for your second question, I am very happy that you asked me this question. This proves that our efforts are not in vain."

Gu Xiuya was slightly startled: "You mean, you took the initiative to block information about it?"

"You are very wise, God of Shuntian."

Michus's tone was a little distant, like feeling and sighing, as if he was recalling the distant past.

"The appearance of the old days can be traced back to an extremely long time ago, when life was the most barren and barbaric."

"At that time, humans had not yet been born, civilization was not civilized, and the planet was ruled by a group of ancient and powerful giant predators."

"They have the most powerful form of life on this planet. They are born to control some ancient supernatural power. They are like born gods, even more powerful than gods."

"They once dominated everything on this planet for tens of thousands of years."

"Until...the stars from the universe brought something evil that has existed in the world since ancient times."

"Old days."

“There is not one old day, but many.”

"A fierce struggle broke out between them to compete for this piece of pure land."

"They create huge waves, they tear the earth apart, they make it scorching hot and scorching hot to freezing cold."

"Their battle even shattered the planet's companion star, causing the planet to fall from the sky, causing a disaster that could destroy the world."

"They make those beings who originally claimed to be gods realize that they are just bugs."

"The emergence of the old days brought the splendid civilization of giant predators to a rapid end. This is undoubtedly a tragedy for the lives that have existed on this planet since ancient times. But, for humans and gods, , but it is a new reincarnation of the old and the new.”

"The battle determines the winner, and the loser is sealed by the winner. And for some reason that we don't know yet, the winner also left the planet not long after."

"Life has once again entered a peaceful period of reproduction. After a long period of time, human beings were born."

"Here, I don't want to waste time telling you about the development of human beings and the birth of gods. You can get clear enough answers from this world."

"The only thing worth mentioning is a characteristic of human life."

"This species, born after the advent of the old days, is born with a unique advantage."

"In their subconscious, their genetic information contains a lot of information about the past."

"This information is buried deep in the consciousness that humans cannot reach. It is as if it does not exist on weekdays and will not bring about any relevant reactions."

"However, when humans are faced with things related to the past, this information will quickly take effect. They will shield human senses and prevent consciousness from being destroyed by the huge torrent of information. At the same time, they will trigger emotions such as fear and fright, prompting humans to get away."

"This is a species' spontaneous protection mechanism. Life will deeply engrave the painful lessons it suffered tens of thousands of years ago in the memory of all its descendants. In the hope that when danger comes again, it can escape with a spark of fire and survive. Propagate."

"Although I don't want to admit it, it is undeniable that from an existential point of view, gods also belong to their descendants."

"That's probably why we stumble upon this information."

"As a latecomer, the information about the old days is as great as the gods and also learned from human beings."

"But that's not a good thing, at least not in my opinion."

"Everything about the old days was a disaster."

"Like the legendary Pandora's Box."

"The first god to open it paid the price with his life and affected countless innocent people."

"You have an ancient Holy Spirit by your side. I think He probably told you how glorious that era was when gods walked on the land. But He certainly didn't tell you how such a glorious past was shattered."

"It's the old days."

"The old days destroy everything."

"The temple collapsed because of it, all the gods fell because of it, and even the great and boundless sea of ​​sacred consciousness underwent great changes because of it."

"In order to survive and for the glory of the gods, we abandoned our past hatred and chose to unite to resist it. Therefore, the Council of All Gods was born, and the first decision was to destroy the old days."

"It was a tragic battle."

"In the end, after paying a heavy price, we achieved a temporary victory."

"The reason why I say this is because although we defeated the Old One at that time, we were not able to completely kill it."

“These evil beings who have escaped from the universe have similar qualities to gods—if they are not forgotten, they will never die.”

Gu Xiuya was shocked.

These words of Misius revealed to him a terrifying corner of the vast universe.

Before this, he had imagined that there were great beings in the universe that were comparable to gods, and he had clearly seen similar things in the world of immortality.But he never thought that the relationship between the two would be so close.

Michus believed that the relationship between the characteristics of the past and the gods was similar, which was caused by his sense of superiority as a god.

He sees himself as special and above all others.He regarded the talents of others as imitations of gods.

This is normal.

Any creature that belongs to a group that has ruled a world for thousands of years and is nearly omnipotent will have such a sense of superiority.

This is the same as human beings claiming to be the soul of all things.

But Gu Xiuya didn't have this sense of superiority.

Through various experiences after time travel, Gu Xiuya understood a truth through real feelings.

In the vast and terrifying scale of the universe, all so-called greatness is nothing but fleeting insignificance.

He was not a humble man, but he was willing to be humble about anything that was beyond his knowledge.

He never puts himself on a high pedestal.

In Gu Xiuya's opinion, the relationship between the past and the gods may be more appropriately described with another word.

【Consistent】.

Complete agreement.

It's so consistent that it makes people tremble.

Gu Xiuya doesn't believe in coincidences. He firmly believes that all coincidences are inevitable due to some kind of subjective interference.

Scenes of the past appeared in his mind, the order collapsed, the ancient passed away hastily, and the new ones were born from the floating corpses. This was a presentation of the past and the future, and it was also another reincarnation of life.

The problem is that the victors in the past clearly achieved hard-won victory, but instead of staying to enjoy their fruits, they left.

It's like they came here specifically, fought specifically, sealed the loser, and then left again.

What was their purpose in doing this, and what results did they create?
Gu Xiuya thought of the gods.

He suspected that there was some unknown secret connection between the birth of the gods and the old days.

The consistency between the two is evidence of this.

This is not his unilateral imagination.

Judging from Michus's description, all the behaviors of the old people after coming to this planet were full of contradictions. Other than that, he could not think of any reason for these powerful creatures to act like this.

As for whether Misius had insight into these secrets, Gu Xiuya didn't know.

But he believed that a population with a long lifespan would definitely give birth to extremely intelligent individuals. Even the things he could think of would be impossible for the gods to think of.

Perhaps, they had already thought of it, but they just didn't want to admit this relationship.

Evil things in the eyes of gods create the soil for the birth of gods.
The self-proclaimed noble god may never be able to accept such a fact.

Unfortunately, reality is often like this.

Funny, ridiculous, unsatisfactory, and extremely poignant and ironic.

Just like the so-called words of fate in third-rate novels.
