Chapter 1399: Request for the Place of Origin
"Ugly, so ugly."

Blaze looked at what was in front of him and muttered Quetzalcoatl's lines, so it was not his fault.

There is a huge mushroom-shaped candle in front of me, and the top of the mushroom candle is still burning, continuously emitting golden light towards the sky. There is also a sign hanging next to it with the name of the candle written on it.

【Life Stream】

He could understand the meaning of the name. After all, making such a large candle required a large amount of materials, and the light emitted to be offered as a sacrifice to the sun scales in the sky could indeed be described as a torrent.

But such a sacred scene, because of the shape of the candle, looks particularly unbearable. Unbearable is fine, this is not a process that can be completed in an instant.

An ordinary-sized candle will burn for a year, but how long a person-sized candle can burn is not something that can be calculated at will. It is very likely to be decades or even hundreds of years.

This is truly a veritable torrent of life.

Of course, not all strangers are making dirty jokes, some of them create veritable works of art.

Each feather is a candle, with its wings spread out, symbolizing the phoenix reborn from the ashes. There is also a powerful and majestic coiled dragon, and even a giant statue with a compassionate face and a thousand hands, called the Buddha.

Each giant candle was placed in an independent area, and the town would be built around this candle.

This will be a difficult process. The sacrificial candle can ignite the sun scales, and naturally it can also charge the sun-eating monsters. They will continuously attack the sacrificial candle.

Fortunately, the movements of the sun-eating monsters were anticipated from the beginning, so the strangers worked together with the locals to build basic defense measures.

Based on this characteristic of the sun-eating monster, foreigners also made a prop to lure enemies, called the Birthday Lotus Lantern.

It was a palm-sized, unopened lotus bud that would bloom the moment it was activated. There would be a small candle of the sacrificial offering on each lotus, which would bring a lot of light and emit harsh music.

The Sun-Eating Monster is doubly lured by the Sacrifice Candle and the sound. The only side effect is that once this thing is turned on, it cannot be turned off.

Blaze thought that this thing should be called a lotus lantern to lure the enemy, but the foreigners said very seriously that it should be called a birthday lotus lantern.

In addition, there are many other derivative props about the Sacrifice Candle that are recorded in the account book of [Hermes' Travel Hat].

Blaze was browsing the summary of Valentine's Day warm-up activities in the branch of Hermes' Travel Hat. The production of the Sacrifice Candles was undoubtedly over-provisioned.

But this excess is for now.

The role of the current sacrificial candles is to replace humans and charge the solar scales in the sky, but humans in the first layer of the ground world cannot always live in a place illuminated only by solar scales. That would invisibly suppress the development of civilization.

So in the future, the sacrificial candles will act as the new sun scales, rising from the ground and flying into the sky.

The light of the sacrificer's candles is still dedicated to the sun scales, so their light will directly cross the sky, connect to the sun scales, illuminate the earth and form a path of light.

This is not the end. After the first layer of the ground world is illuminated, the second layer of the world and the third layer of the world will follow, and so on.

The places where the gods once lived, although they fell into darkness due to the shattering of the totem and the fall of the gods, have not disappeared, and something is still hidden in them. Perhaps, just like the twelfth world turning into the ancient dragon world, a new ecology was born in the world without the gods. If the underground world can be illuminated by the candles of the sacrificers, then will there be some special effects in the night kingdom on the other side?

That is the unknown that makes people eager to try.

But before that, we still have to take one step at a time and be down-to-earth.

Blazer flipped through the account book, and before he knew it, he could understand the numbers. There is no better teaching than to go deep into them.

The time has come to say goodbye to the first level of the underground world.

"Come to think of it, I originally planned to come here just to get some chocolate." Blaze scratched his forehead helplessly, "but then there was the revelation of your life story and the sacrifice crisis in the underworld, which was extremely serious."

"So we still don't know where I came from, do we?"

Amaterasu lay lazily on Blaze's back, her beautiful face distorted on Blaze's shoulder.

"The underground gods did not give Izanagi any help, so there is only one other possibility left." Blaze looked down at the notebook in his hand and stopped at the page about the lotus prop.

When the book is opened, it is composed of two pages of paper, just like the mythical totem of the birth of Amaterasu.

Only half of them came from the [Butterfly], and the other half was unknown. Perhaps the gods that still existed in the other half of the totem helped Izanagi.

But this secret may not be revealed so quickly.

"Do you have any requirements for your origin? For example, you hope for a harmonious and friendly world, or your birth stems from the recognition of Izanagi by a great god." Blaze patted Amaterasu's head jokingly.

Amaterasu muttered to herself for a while, as if thinking seriously, and finally said seriously: "I hope their clothing culture can be more conservative, not showing so much skin, at least not showing their belly and feet."

"……That's it?"

"What do you mean just that! This is very important to me. If the clothes repel me, how can I accept it?" Amaterasu puffed up her cheeks and blew hard into Blaze's ears. "I'm telling you, I have other requests."

"That's food! It has to be normal food that I can accept! It has to be delicious and pleasing to the eye."

"Ah~ Is this the consciousness that a sun should have? Be careful of retribution, because everything is completely opposite to what you expect." Blaze couldn't help but tease Amaterasu after hearing her serious talk, describing vividly, "For example, the translucent silk clothes that only cover the face, completely exposing the belly and legs, and the indescribable paste that mixes all the food together and becomes a sticky substance after stirring."

Amaterasu raised her brows, pinched Blaze's chin, and turned Blaze's face around with force.

She widened her eyes and spoke slowly.

"I'm telling you, you're going to have a pink blood disaster soon."
