Comprehensive: Beginning with the Killer Queen

"Don't even think about escaping. I can't forgive you! I will definitely pull you out with my own hands. Don't even think about leaving a single residue behind!"

In the dark and empty dimensional cracks, the white light that penetrated the sky and the earth lit up again.

It cleans all the areas it can touch over and over again, and with every sweep, countless multiverses are opened up and destroyed.

This was completely different from his previous leisurely and introverted posture, and was the proof that Bo Xun was already extremely angry.

However, even so, Roland still had the illusion of death.

No...it's not an illusion. He must have died countless times.

In the face of the infinite density, the world, time and space, and destiny will all be crushed until they turn into indescribable fine particles and eventually return to chaos.

In this force that is not so much an erasure as it is a restoration from the root, all means of resistance have lost their original meaning.

Even the black hole from which even light can hardly escape, and the sixth law that is powerful enough to create the world and open up an infinite future, these powers beyond imagination are not comparable to even a tiny bit of what is here.

Originally, Roland thought that his extravagant theory of the road could be of some use.

Unexpectedly, it only had a small effect - just a moment later, he would be destroyed again by the infinite number.

In a sense, Poxun's self-centered attitude is not groundless.

Just like in the world of Magical Index, Roland, who had just become a perfect demon god, was no different in rank from Nephthys and Niangniang, but he did not take them seriously.

It is really difficult to treat garbage that can be crushed to death with just one finger with an equal attitude.

If he had not used the Key of All Spirits to bind Poxun's only flaw, there would be no way he would have survived Poxun's hands.

From this point of view, the unreasonable Sixth Heaven Snake was also a kind of alternative gift.

If that experience had not exposed Bo Xun's only weakness, Roland would not have used him as a test today, thus completing the cycle of the seven-day principle, stepping half a foot into the door of infinite multiplicity, and creating a miracle symbolizing dimensional ascension - the power of the spiral.

But even so, this doesn't change anything.

After all, even if he didn't fall into the dilemma of having no way forward like Mara, to achieve this while being attacked by Mara with all his strength would undoubtedly be a very long and risky process.

"After all, even if we reach the same weight class, it is absolutely impossible to defeat Bo Xun head-on."

The battle just now was very short, but it was enough for Roland to confirm this.

The so-called battle is a competition of strength and wisdom.

However, the unit of infinite number is too difficult to understand.

The current Bo Xun is like the evil way in martial arts novels that overdraws potential in exchange for power. It is not really impossible to fight against it, but at most we can just contend with it, and it is extremely dangerous.

If this is the best result you can get, then resistance is meaningless and will only add to your stress.

The last time Roland faced the Sixth Heaven Snake, he had encountered such an embarrassing situation, but at this moment there was no other Shi Tianwu to give him the final boost to break through the realm.

In other words, the person who is qualified to play this role is none other than Po Xun himself.

One must defeat the infinite number of people in order to reach the sky beyond the darkness, but without the power to transcend, one is not qualified to defeat the infinite number of people.

It's a desperate situation like a nesting doll.

But despite this, all is not hopeless.

It has been proved in the initial tests that what is invincible is only the infinite number, not Mara.

He has many flaws that can be exploited.

Considering it from another angle, if it is impossible to win against the infinite number of people of Po-Jun, then wouldn't it be better to just let him step down from this level?
To be honest, Roland himself knew that this sounded like a fantasy.

Just like what Mara knew, in reality, it is impossible to create miracles by relying solely on intangible things such as willpower and courage.

To achieve this, two prerequisites are often required.

First, the miracle must already exist in the world, and second, you have to make choices that respond to the miracle.

Now, the birth of the spiral force has met the first condition. As for the second option...

Roland's eyes flickered slightly, and he subconsciously rubbed the ring on his hand, his thoughts running like lightning.

At this point, no matter how amazing the wisdom is, it is of no use and all one can do is use intuition and decision making.

Just like what can never truly change the future is never strength or wisdom, but character.

and so--

From being helpless in the first encounter with the Sixth Heaven Snake, he had to gamble everything to get a draw.

He took advantage of the pressure brought by it as an opportunity to accomplish his great plan, broke through in the battle, and destroyed the opponent's apostle in the blink of an eye.

After planning, accumulating, and calculating time and time again, Roland did not come here on his own initiative just to survive from the hands of Po Xun.

Since his irrepressible desire was beating like a second heart, he naturally had no reason to refuse to join in this carnival.

The evil god, dazzling and flawless, like a new sun that cannot be looked directly at, is still wreaking havoc madly.

"——The Key of All Souls."

Standing in the boundless space that was as silent as clouds and mist, without heat but enough to break all shackles, Roland raised his right hand high and gently took off the ring that he had almost never taken off.

From beginning to end, those ruby ​​eyes that shone with gorgeous light carried a calmness and determination that even Bo Xun could not understand.

However, at this moment, he did not have the leisure to care about the meaning behind this anomaly.

"Give me the contract."

“…Goooo!”

As the voice that sounded like a precious farewell fell, Bo Xun suddenly grasped his chest.

That ferocious face suddenly flushed with an unnatural red, and a mournful sound similar to a delirium came out of the mouth.

——Like a fragile human being.

This was not what Mara intended. He was an evil god who rejected everything. No matter what desperate situation he encountered, he would never tolerate himself revealing the ugly appearance of humans.

Unless, this is a cry from "me" that is beyond his will to resist.

Click!

Accompanied by a sound like ice breaking.

The river behind Po Xun was quietly flowing in the universe, mighty and endless, completely submerging all obstacles. Burying the river beneath the surface of the water, a huge and clear crack appeared, connecting the beginning and the end.

"what……?"

"What happened? Why did 'I' break into pieces..."

“My…what did you do to my Tengudo (body)?!”

Po Xun roared loudly with his usual sticky and dark voice.

But this time, beneath the shock and anger, there was also unconcealable pain and fear.

"Do you remember why you were so tolerant and curious about me in the beginning?"

Roland smiled slightly and suddenly asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the current situation.

"Compared to you, I, who was a symbol of the urge to survive, was really nothing."

"Although I used the method of taking advantage of loopholes to become the opposite of the infinite number and thus found a new way, from another perspective, this is also the proof that I must rely on you."

"Then, have you ever thought about why my condition makes your body instinctively think that it can get rid of the troublesome defect of the self-destruction factor?"

"...!"

Bo Xun was stunned.

Yes, why?
There are people among the human race who lack certain vitamins and who instinctively crave foods containing that element without knowing the underlying principle.

His perfect body, which is flawless and has nothing in it, is naturally not inferior.

If this is the case, why did Roland, who can only construct a one-sided paradox and cannot cycle in both directions, make a proposal to share his power when his anger was dominating his reason at the time?

It was as if once I did this, I would be able to undergo an unprecedented transformation...

It was as if he could see through Mara's mood.

The corners of Roland's mouth curled up even more, and he spoke calmly.

"That's of course because a one-sided paradox... has a beginning and an end."

"Practicing it in reverse, I can use the opposing yet integrated nature of the survival impulse and the self-destruction factor, use you as a reference, and sublimate the principle into all the infinity except for the Po Xun."

"And at this point, if we can reach a consensus and merge with you, or give up everything and give you our power, you can purify yourself, condense everything into one point, and break through the cage of this dimension. My path theory itself is just a circular paradox, and the worldview of the small garden is just an external manifestation. If I unlock the contract of the Key of All Souls, you can use it as a ticket to participate."

"Well, it sounds great, right? This method does have great value, but don't forget that it is still a one-sided privilege that you can't even refuse."

"That's why you instinctively planned to kill me without any hesitation after being rejected."

At this point, Roland shook his head and laughed, with a hint of teasing in his expression.

"After all, if this ideal situation is achieved, the result will be completely different."

"Above...?"

"That's right. What you lack is just an equally strong desire to survive. As for where that quality comes from, it doesn't matter at all, right?"

"For you who were born for a distorted purpose, the best choice is to go all the way to purify yourself. But just like all legendary stories, as long as you are blessed by a miracle, even the protagonist who has paid an almost irreparable price can be saved and return to the right path."

"Is it possible that you..."

Bo Xun looked at Roland in disbelief.

His expression was as if he had seen a madman.

However, for Bo Xun, who regards himself as everything and thinks that allowing others to enter his field of vision is intolerable and abnormal, Roland's behavior is probably incomprehensible madness.

The other party is not restricted by the paradox and will regard him as a part of himself, but even so, he still chooses to give himself to others.

And what is given is not just a simple power or concept, but the authority that symbolizes the future and hope.

It’s too weird, too twisted, too strange, too incongruous, and too unbelievable.

so horrible.

so horrible.

It's so terrifying that it's unbearable!

Bo Xun stared at Roland with his three protruding eyes, trying to find a trace of comfort in his reaction. However -

Like a magician appreciating the audience's reaction, Roland studied Po Xun's expression, the light in his eyes becoming brighter and brighter like stars.

The man announced with a smile.

"Bo Xun...congratulations."

The evil god of chaos trembled slightly.

His expression was extremely stiff, and he didn't utter a single word in response, falling into a helpless silence.

The reason is simple.

The light that never stops, like a spiral, has pierced through the boundless river.

Although just like Roland's previous dilemma, the nascent spiral force that appeared through the box garden was only a tiny ray of light, which could not be compared with the quality of Tengu Dao.

But foreign matter is foreign matter.

In the completed Tengudo, any crack, no matter how small, will be a fatal crack.

Moreover, from the box-shaped throne that is driven by the spiral force at this moment, the world will be generated every moment with the benchmark value of the infinite multiverse as the unit.

Just like one cannot bear the pain of a mosquito bite because he has never been hurt, a worldview in which only Poxun exists cannot accommodate even the slightest bit of others.

If he can survive the current crisis and make use of the potential of spiral force, as long as time accumulates, Bo Xun can completely ascend to a higher dimension without any hindrance.

But just like all the protagonists who have gone astray in pursuit of more convenient power, if they want to be reborn after the destruction, giving up the powerful power they once possessed is an indispensable price to pay.

And now, it's time for Po Xun to pay the price.

"——!!!"

Invisible and silent, it resounds throughout the universe.

Po Xun's body was like a rubber ball connected to a low-quality inflation tube, expanding and shrinking in a irregular cycle.

For him, who values ​​himself the most, he is not even sure whether his existence is real at this moment.

The only thing I could feel was one thing.

…he was being crushed and devoured by another powerful being.

No, the other term is too ambiguous.

The circle of cause and effect has been completed. In the depths of the void where nothing exists, the only existence besides him is the nothingness named "Roland".

There is no future or past, no logic of any road, only the existence of mass standing opposite to infinite numbers.

For him, who has always believed that power is supreme, it is undoubtedly quite ironic that he is now being devoured by the power he once took pride in.

But perhaps it is precisely this unwillingness.

Although his face was completely distorted and he could not make any sound except howls of hatred and anger, and his weight was like residue on his fingertips, Po Xun still struggled to raise his head.

He stared at the small box that had become his new cage after the ceremony was completed.

Gazing outside the small garden, the man was slowly closing the spiral light and the world back together in his palm.

"Why……"

Why does the other party dare to do this?
Using force to crush opponents of different levels may seem flawless, but it is actually full of risks.

It was precisely because he was pierced by the spiral force that he could understand how magnificent the miracle was. In addition, the box garden, which spanned the entire dimension and contained the throne of the seven heavens, although very small, had the possibility of being destroyed and rebuilt.

Even a plan that seems foolproof will have flaws in the face of such a miracle.

Just as he would magnify his annoyance towards others, Roland, who created the opponent with logic and wisdom, and Roland, who defeated him, should resist such a ridiculous plan.

In this world, no one understands better than the other party what the consequences will be if they lose.

"Yes, I know very well what the outcome will be if I fail, and what you said makes sense, but... even though I know this, I didn't consider the possibility that I would lose."

"Not even a tiny bit."

"Although there is no basis for this, I don't know why, but I am very confident that I will win."

"If I have to find an explanation, it's probably just... I believe there's no need for a reason."

Roland shrugged, clenched his palms tightly, and completely took the weight of Po Xun into his body.

Yes, it is not destroyed, but incorporated into the body.

Logically speaking, when faced with an enemy that is so dangerous that it is beyond comprehension, the correct approach is to completely wipe him out.

But in Roland's opinion, this is such a waste.

After giving the box garden and re-accommodating its entire existence, completing the cycle from the seventh day to the zero day as both the creator and the heir, what kind of future will these worlds created by his cause and effect have? This is also an important part of how far he can go into the unknown realm above the sky.

That is why it is important to provide appropriate pressure and encouragement.

Considering the nature and path of the other party's infinitely diverse first person, it is most appropriate for him to play this role.

The small garden he built was too luxurious. In this worldview that constantly observes and collects other multiverses, the life inside is getting stronger on the spot.

Originally, taking the sun as the star of creation and human history as the center of the universe, the world's context is a bit excessive. In addition, it is bound to be causally bound to the superior conditions of the naturally powerful beings such as the stars, gods and Buddhas. Once there is a mistake, it will form a very distorted trend.

However, Roland certainly would not just throw the defeated evil god in as it was.

After all, the purpose of his actions was only to give a trial, not to really strengthen the world and life within his body.

"So, give him this mission—"

"The first demon king who has no form or appearance, no self-will, but is the most powerful among all."

"The end of wandering, the tyrant at the end of the road, the end of the world that mankind must cross before the time limit."

"Moving forward in decadence, reminding others not to be decadent... The mechanism with the most powerful force - the wind of decadence."

Roland opened his mouth, let out a light breath, and blew out a black gust of wind towards the end of time in the box garden.

Although in terms of traditional concepts of happiness, a perfectly self-consistent cyclical world sounds better.

But the most profound lesson Roland learned along the way was -

The world needs resilience.

The repetitive cycle distorts everything.

Artosh, the Demon, the Snake, and Po Jun all proved this to him personally. It is precisely because of the completion of others that Roland has always been aware of this that he can accomplish seemingly impossible miracles time and time again.

In the 'perfect' world, even death is no longer an option, and one can only feel the despair endlessly. For Roland, this is the real hell.

"Ok?"

Roland raised his head as if realizing something.

Without any warning, at the moment when that thought and realization were born, he had already crossed the invisible but real barrier and existed above the dimension called the Sea of ​​Infinite Multiplicity.

"I see. No wonder the so-called tyranny should be concentrated on one point, not allowing for anything else, and covering the absolute elements of the world with one's own will. However, I can possess different principles of the road at the same time... Really, it turns out that it is just the opposite. My tyranny has actually been formed a long time ago, but it has been suppressed and has never been revealed?"

Roland sighed.

The favor of the {Snake}'s remains and roots was so unique that Roland was able to obtain the privilege of the Principle of the Road at a very early stage, or a contract spirit with such qualities, and their quality was often far beyond imagination.

To the extent that the overbearing logic he exuded was enough just to maintain the logic of the status quo.

It was originally a small horse pulling a big cart, but it was already almost smoking behind the scenes. Roland was still constantly adding bricks and tiles to the ritual to fight against Po Xun, so he certainly had no spare energy to show it.

"Thank you for your hard work. I must thank you for this..."

Roland couldn't help but laugh, and looked with gentle eyes at the divine light that was visibly increasing on his body, as if it wanted to vent all the depression of the past.

Turnover, sublimation, cycle.

It is both one and two.

It encompasses all causes and is also all results.

There is no beginning or end, no beginning or end.

It just keeps moving forward and flowing out, a double helix that never admits there is an end in front of it in order to surpass everything.

In order to realize greater ambitions, in order to make this unfillable gap feel at ease, he will never give up moving forward until he is satisfied.

But on the other hand, he will never be satisfied.

Therefore, one will constantly swallow up the unknown of oneself, no matter the world, the road, or the existence, until its value continues to advance and turns into eternal happiness of self-contradiction.

It is precisely to respond to this will that it is born in this form.

It is precisely because we are unaware of its existence that we have built the luxurious little garden we have today, and it is precisely because we are convinced of its potential that the spiral force that transcends dimensions is born.

It is both accidental and inevitable.

It's both luck and destiny.

"——【Spiral Gospel】"

Roland whispered its real name, the smile on his face growing wider.

"Well then, let's start showing off our skills after such a long absence!"

The violent air currents formed a vortex with him as the center, and the light and heat that once wiped out the world suddenly dispersed the remaining aura of destruction around them and began to shine.

As if they were connected by an invisible network, the scarred pure white world was suddenly smoothed by light, with every gully smoothed out, outlining a grand blueprint of the universe.

The timeline was stretched like a rubber band, and the space became more and more turbulent and vibrated wildly in the crush.

There is form and emptiness, and darkness is upon the face of the abyss.

It's more like an atmosphere than a substance or a concept.

A kind of stalemate, with no beginning and no end, just like the silence when everyone in a bustling street suddenly stops at the same time.

Until something comes to break the silence, they are just the beginning of an atmosphere.

Then Roland spoke in an indifferent voice.

"Let there be light——" (End of this chapter)
