The red moon returns

Chapter 490: Through the Silver Key Gate
As the strong light suddenly appeared, a ball of silver light floated out from Lynch's chest and hovered in front of him.

Through the light, a silver key can be vaguely seen. The huge key is bigger than a human head and is covered with dense and complex patterns. The patterns look like some kind of vines, or like some kind of words, but Lynch can't find any way to interpret them. He can only vaguely feel that these patterns reveal extremely mysterious and vast knowledge and secrets.

The Silver Key has no entity and is only a conceptual existence in the world. Its entity will only be revealed when it is pulled by the Silver Gate in the river of time.

According to legend, the patterns on it record all history from ancient times to the present, and hide secrets deep in time. However, those patterns can never be deciphered, and the secrets can only be left to settle forever in the river of time.

At this moment, the Silver Key suddenly appeared, which meant that the Silver Gate was right in front of us.

Without caring about playing with the dog, Lynch took a step forward according to Sky Milt's instructions, thrust his hand into the light like lightning, and tightly grasped the huge key inside.

The key did not move, as if it was firmly fixed in the ball of light, which was a sign that the Silver Key had merged with the soul.

Lynch gritted his teeth and strength burst out instantly. At the same time, accompanied by a burning sensation, a piercing pain broke out from his chest, as if the muscles in his chest were torn apart alive.

The severe pain made Lynch's expression distorted, but he still gritted his teeth, enduring the pain and squeezing out all his strength. As the ball of light trembled, the silver key began to move slowly, and the severe pain in his chest became more and more intense, as if even his soul was split in half.

However, since he was able to grit his teeth and stab himself twice in Zul'Gosal, how could Lynch retreat easily? He growled in his throat, and the amplification of Death Coil exploded directly in his body. His strength rose again, and he forcibly pulled the key out of the light.

The moment it left the ball of light, the key shrank rapidly to its normal size, and the ball of light quickly dimmed and retracted into Lynch's chest.

The light faded, and the river of time returned to its original haziness. In the blue light, only Lynch, who looked confused, and the hound who was almost touched by him were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

Being stared at by two cold eyes, even with the mark, Lin Qi was still a little timid: "Well, if I say I don't want to jerk you off, you won't believe it."

However, the hound also stared at him in confusion, its big eyes full of bewilderment, and suddenly it swung out its long tongue, crackling it on his face several times, then turned around and ran away like its owner, leaving Lynch, with his face full of blue mist, staring at its back in amazement.

What's wrong with you people from Tindalos?

Lynch wiped his face, raised his middle finger in a friendly manner towards the hound's back, and then opened the palm holding the Silver Key.

The moment he opened his palm, the silver key in his palm suddenly bounced and flew back into the air, slowly spinning in the air, emitting a soft silver light. Under the silver light, a silver door that opened in two directions slowly appeared in the light curtain.

The silver door is simple and heavy, exuding the breath of time. There are also flower vine-like patterns engraved on the door, exactly the same as those on the Silver Key.

The illusory door gradually solidified and turned into a solid entity under the illumination of the silver light. With a creaking sound, the door slowly opened inward. Bursts of whispers came from the gap, like a midnight dream, yet seemed to be telling the twisted and strange truth of the world.

No one knows who forged the Silver Gate. Legend has it that behind the gate are stored all the truths of the world and the secrets of the origin of the universe.

Throughout the ages, countless knowledge seekers and truth defenders have given up everything and even sacrificed their lives just to enter the Silver Gate and get a glimpse of the mystery at the end of time. However, the ancient and heavy Silver Gate ruthlessly shuts everyone out.

Now, the gate that those warriors had been dreaming about for so long, finally showed up in front of Lin Qi. With a whisper, the two gates opened completely, revealing the dark and deep space inside, which was like the void of the universe. "The Silver Gate is open." The voice of the Yis people came to his ears, "You are very lucky. Entering the Silver Gate is the lifelong dream of many people, but you, who have never even heard of it before, got it."

"Most of the time, the efforts of a mortal throughout his life are not as good as a thought of a god. It's cruel, but this is reality." Lin Qi felt a sense of regret and sighed softly, "Have you ever been in there? What's inside?"

"No, we Yis are rational and won't pursue such illusory things." The Yis were silent for a moment and sighed, "Well, in fact, it is very difficult to find the Silver Key. Don't think that it is easy just because you got the Silver Key inexplicably. In fact, there are very few people who can find the Silver Key over the years. Without the Silver Key, you can't even see the Silver Door, let alone go in. You can get the key so easily because Yog-Sothoth owes you a favor, and the key he found personally was passed on to Milt and his sister. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the brother and sister who were hiding at home waiting to die to find the key for you so quickly."

"I see... Then, do you want to go in together?"

"..." The Yisi people were silent again, and after a long while, they sneered, "If you rush in without the Silver Key, you will only fall into the turbulence of time and never come back. I accept your kindness, but let me give you a piece of advice."

"Ok?"

"Put away your curiosity and don't peek at things you shouldn't see. Besides, there may really be truth hidden in it, but the brilliance of truth is something that mortals cannot bear even one billionth of. Some people always think that as long as they can catch a glimpse of the brilliance of truth, they would be willing to die immediately. I hope you are not such a person."

"Well, I'm not." Lynch smiled, "I'm not interested in risking my life to witness the truth. I'm interested in becoming the truth."

"...Then I wish you good luck." The Yisi people found that they were silent and sighed more today than in the past year. "Also, you have actually received the favor of Msisha. The attitude of the hound towards you just now has already explained everything."

"hehe."

"It seems that we will meet often in the future. Don't worry, we Yisi people have a lot of things that can be used as rewards, enough for you to be reluctant to refuse." Yisi people laughed softly, "Then, the Silver Gate is calling you. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you. See you 'now'."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Qi felt his heart go empty and there was no sound in his ears.

He did not hesitate any longer, straightened his non-existent clothes, composed himself, and walked into the deep void behind the Silver Gate with a serious expression.

There was a sound of door hinges turning behind him, and the door slowly closed, and disappeared into thin air as it was completely closed. Lynch then realized that he was standing in a void.

There is nothing solid under your feet, but you can walk on flat ground; there is no light around, but you can see everything clearly.

At the end of the field of vision, a huge stone throne stood there, and a huge human figure was floating quietly above the throne.

The incarnation of Yog-Sothoth, the Lord of Billions of Lights, to whom all things are united.

The Ancient Immortal.

Tawil Yat Umr.
