Huh? Are they all real?.

Chapter 360: The Nameless Goddess of Mercy (5k)

The elevator was still descending floor by floor, and the various buildings outside the floor-to-ceiling windows were still flashing by rapidly.

Following the numbers on the elevator, we finally arrived at the 666th floor, which was impossible to reach without special permissions.

The triple-encrypted elevator door finally opened with the sound of the airtight lock being activated.

It was also here that Moon saw the people who had been waiting behind the door.

There were not as many as Moon had expected, not even ten people.

At most there are only five people.

Seeing Moon coming, two of the five people knelt on one knee to show their greeting.

The three leading men simply bowed slightly to show their respect.

Moen knew these three people, they were three of the ten-member council.

Therefore, they who represent the Human Alliance will not bow to another civilization.

The Council of Ten is the highest decision-making body of the entire Human Alliance.

The original origin of the Council of Ten was the heads of the ten major forces that took the lead in rebuilding civilization after the war.

Later, after careful consideration and judicial reform, the People's Union abolished the positions of president and prime minister, and only the ten-member parliament representing the major central institutions remained.

For example, the judicial, military, administrative, inspection and other powerful institutions.

There is no case of continent or region being the unit.

It is said that the reason for its such structure is to avoid the emergence of military governments and dictators.

And the greatest possible restriction of rights and the possibility of war again.

After all, these are institutions that no region can avoid, and once they are divided into continents, regional conflicts may arise and evolve into wars.

The Human League, which was established from the ruins of war, was extremely afraid of the outbreak of the Second World War.

They know very well that if it happens again it will truly be the end of civilization.

"We are honored to meet with such a supreme being at this time, His Majesty Trajan."

After showing his politeness, the old man in the lead walked forward and extended his hand to Moon.

"Although you must know it, please allow me to repeat it again. This represents friendship in our Human Union!"

Looking at the old man's outstretched hand, Mo En smiled and shook it:

"It's an honor to meet you, too, Mr. Voss."

The old man's name was Worth R. George.

There is no distinction between high and low positions in the Council of Ten; they are all equal.

But Voss is the longest-serving and most senior of the group.

So he usually speaks on behalf of the Council of Ten.

"It is an honor to be remembered by the Supreme, Your Majesty."

The old man said with a smile as he let go of his hand.

Immediately, he looked at the entire base behind him:

"Do you need me to introduce this base to you?"

"Of course, Mr. Voss."

The old man immediately told everything he knew:
"The name of this base is Mysterious Island. Isn't it strange, Your Majesty? After all, this place is deep inland and has nothing to do with an island. But there is actually a reason why it is called Mysterious Island."

“Not because of the location, but because of what it preserves and what it means to us.”

"Because back then, it was the only place we could rely on for mysticism. It was like an isolated island suddenly seen by a shipwreck survivor!"

At this point, the old man kept it a secret and said:

"Do you know how long ago this base was built?"

Moen thought about the date mentioned in the diary and said:

"It should have been built around the time you started exploring the contaminated areas of Greenland, right? That is, around 89 New Year?"

The old man shook his head and said:
"No, it was earlier than that, and much earlier, because this base was built in 2105 of the old calendar."

"2105 in the old calendar? I remember that you started to establish the Human Alliance and adopted the new calendar in 2206 in the old calendar, and now it is 167 in the new calendar, so it's almost three hundred years?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, it's almost three hundred years. To a Supreme Being like you, three hundred years may not be worth mentioning. But to us, it spans more than a dozen generations."

Hearing this, Moon realized something and said in surprise:

"You discovered traces of the supernatural hundreds of years ago? And built this base because of that?"

The old man shook his head and said:

"Your Majesty, we confirmed the existence of the extraordinary hundreds of years ago. If we find traces of the extraordinary, we don't know the exact time, because we have no way to confirm whether the records left by our predecessors in the ignorant Middle Ages were out of ignorance or they saw the real extraordinary."

Although it's not something too surprising.

But it was indeed something Moon had not expected.

He always felt that the extraordinary traces here probably began to appear around the time of the war.

Now it seems that it is so early.

As he spoke, the old man for some reason walked to the titanium alloy wall next to him, and looked at the wall cloth on it and hesitated for a moment.

"This wall cloth has been here for almost three hundred years. To be honest, I really don't want to destroy it, but Your Majesty, this way you should be able to intuitively understand what happened."

After saying this, the old man directly tore off the wallpaper hanging in front of the wall.

What was revealed shocked even Moon greatly—the Holy Scripture!
The original holy book written in ancient elven language!
"In the past, we simply couldn't decipher these exquisite and seemingly mysterious words."

"Both us and the old United States that left this base behind have sought out the most famous linguists, but they were unable to translate anything."

"But the only thing we are sure of is that it is precisely because of these mysterious words engraved everywhere here that this place is the only place where that thing can be preserved!"

As the old man said this, he carefully tidied up the wall cloth, which was an antique of great historical significance.

"And now, as the barrier between the two worlds has been broken, we finally understand what these characters are. They are ancient elven texts!"

"But even so, the translation work was severely frustrated, because after the departure of the Eternal King, the elves abolished any culture related to the Eternal King, including writing, in order to commemorate the king."

At this point, another person couldn't help but interrupt:

"When I first heard about this, I was really shocked. I really couldn't imagine what kind of existence could make a mature and powerful civilization voluntarily abandon all its related cultures just because of my departure."

The old man glanced at the other party and nodded:

"That's why it's even harder for us to understand what's written on it, even though we already have so many restrictions. But since you're here, you should know what's written on it, right?"

Moon nodded, walked up to the old man who had folded the wall cloth, and looked at the ancient words engraved on the titanium alloy wall.

"This is the original holy book. And it's not a revised version, nor is it one of the several common versions that have been passed down. It's the original version! It's the original holy book compiled by the eldest sons to spread the original."

Moon remembered that he had thought about getting involved because it sounded interesting.

But after taking a look at it, Moon gave up immediately because the holy book they were going to compile was so thick that it was almost taller than Moon when he stood up!

Therefore, the publication of this holy book has nothing to do with him.

However, Moon remembered that Profitus Helios was the most active and hardworking person in compiling the holy code.

Another member of the ten-member council behind the old man asked curiously:

"I heard that all versions of the original holy text have never been recognized by the original, so is this the only one that has been recognized by the original?"

At this point, he said with even more surprise:
"So this is the place where TS001 can be placed? Because this is the one."

Before he could continue, Moon interrupted him and said:
"No, even this version of the original holy book has never been recognized by the original. In fact, the original has never recognized any book that praises and promotes Him."

"What? But didn't you say that this was a holy book compiled by the firstborn for the originals? Didn't the originals acknowledge the gifts of the firstborns?"

To this stunned question.

Moen probably knew why and looked away awkwardly.

"I think so."

Maybe he should have participated, at least signed his name or something.
But wasn't that because he didn't want to encroach on the fruits of their labor?
What Moon hates most is to let completely unrelated people be attributed to someone else's achievements.

But now that I think about it, maybe this was the wrong thing to do.

After all, Morn also remembered that the eldest sons were as happy when they completed the Holy Scripture as when they saw the Perfect City.

Thinking of this, Mo En could only comfort himself in his heart:
"At least when the original destroyed the Perfect City, Profitus and his men were not allowed to kneel outside and watch with their holy books."

But the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he should have participated in it. "So do you know what it says?"

Mo En finally came back to his senses and glanced at the engraving.

"This is the sixth chapter, sixth section, sixth paragraph of the original holy book. It is the part that the goddess who represents mercy among the eldest sons is responsible for."

and many more!

Does the number 666 appear too frequently?
Moon suddenly noticed a problem that he had not noticed before.

This is the 666th floor, 6,660 meters underground, and the first part of the holy book I saw happened to be the sixth chapter, sixth section, sixth paragraph???
Thinking of this, Moen asked the old man:

"Mr. Voss, may I ask what the number 666 means? For this place?"

666 is the number of the devil over there, and it is also the sacred number of the abyss.

But what does the abyss have to do with this place?
Or is it related to me? That's even more wrong. I have nothing to do with the abyss!

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, we don't know either. After all, we didn't build this place. We are just the successors."

"So what have you discovered over the years?"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Moon still didn't want to give up.

The old man still shook his head and said:

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, we didn't find anything."

They also wondered what it meant that the old United States dug to this depth with such great effort and boldness when the technology was not yet mature.

Unfortunately, the only reason they found this place was because of the few words recorded in a damaged terminal.

There is even less other information.

"Then how did you find this place?"

"Because when we were trying to pick up the past civilization, we found a damaged terminal in the safe of the old United States President's Office, and there were fragments of information about this place in it."

"According to our analysis, the person who left the terminal should be the last president of the old United States. He was also the first person to launch a nuclear bomb and start the war."

"The terminal said - I hope the legacy we leave behind can protect our descendants from the invasion of dark forces. And then there are the coordinates here."

The old man was a participant in that year, so he remembered it very clearly:

"We found this place according to the coordinates on the terminal, and discovered that even after so many years, this base still maintains its functions intact, and it seems to have consciously left some information that we can use later."

“But beyond that, there’s nothing left.”

Moen looked at the old man and said:
"You mean, they left this place here for the people who come later?"

And why does it sound like the war was caused by the extraordinary? ? ?
The old man nodded and said:

"Yes, Your Majesty, otherwise it would make no sense for the Old United States to abandon such a perfect underground bunker in the war."

"You could even say they were crazy about it, so clean when we came here, it was like no one had ever been here before."

Things are becoming more and more confusing!
Mo En couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

I thought I would know more after coming here, but unexpectedly, although I did know more, I also knew less.

Moen sighed inwardly and asked:
"So, you were able to obtain the uniqueness in Greenland because of this?"

The old man said without any intention of hiding anything:

"Yes, Your Majesty, after discovering that there are things beyond our knowledge in the contaminated area of ​​Greenland, we have made countless attempts, and finally placed TS001 here according to the information left here, after paying a huge price!"

"That is, behind that door!"

Follow the old man's finger.

Moen saw the heavy steel door that was closed tightly.

The old man's voice sounded at the right time:

"The sixteen-meter-high and six-meter-thick alloy door can withstand any attack we can currently deal."

"But to be honest, compared to what we can see, when we all saw this door for the first time, we all felt that the inscriptions engraved on it were the real protection."

"There is no reason for it. I just saw it and thought so. And everyone thinks so."

Another of the three also looked at the inscription in front of them and said:

"And according to our research, we found that what was engraved there is exactly the same as what is on this wall. So, Your Majesty, is there anything special about this sixth chapter, sixth section, sixth paragraph?"

Normally, in this situation, shouldn't the opening or closing chapter be engraved?
But the result is Chapter 6, a chapter that is neither forward nor backward.

Upon hearing this, Mo En immediately stepped forward.

He carefully looked at the ancient inscriptions engraved on the heavy door.

"Yes, it is the content of the sixth section of the sixth chapter. And there is only this paragraph."

Moon also gave a positive answer.

The old man asked, "Your Majesty, can you tell us what this says?"

Moen glanced at the old man and said directly:
"When he does good, people praise him. When he dies, people mourn him."

"The people's grief was so real and heartfelt that the Great Mother heard their cries."

"So my mother asked me to come here and ask everything."

"When I reported everything, my mother asked me to bring him back."

"And said: He should return!"

"Then I saw him walking the earth again."

Moon's narration did not last long, after all, it was only a short paragraph.

Even by today's standards, this short passage is a bit too colloquial compared to its status as the original holy book.

And everyone behind Moon was listening attentively.

Because this paragraph is obviously extremely important.

Otherwise, this paragraph would not be specially engraved here.

After Moen finished speaking, one of them asked:
"So this depicts the resurrection miracle of an ancient saint. What do you think? Does that saint have anything to do with this place?"

This is undoubtedly the most normal and reasonable idea in this situation.

But what made Moon feel incomprehensible was...

That saint does exist, but his resurrection was not the original intention, but the action of the goddess herself!
The goddess attributes this to the Primordial because she believes that she is performing the miracles and powers given to her by the Primordial.

And whether it was the goddess or the saint, they had long been lost in history.

So why was this passage engraved in such an important and prominent location?
Or, does this refer not to the goddess and the saint, but to resurrection?

Resurrection Who?
Sequence zero of the plague pathway?

That's not right, this is not the process for resurrecting that guy!
As expected, more and more problems appeared in front of Moon.

"His Majesty?"

The old man noticed that Moon seemed to be looking a little strange and asked this question with concern, which woke Moon up from his thoughts.

"Ah. Sorry, Mr. Voss. I just can't understand why this paragraph is here."

"You don't understand either?"

Moen's voice undoubtedly plunged them into disappointment.

They were crossing the river by feeling their way forward, and they thought that the arrival of a supreme being would help them see the way forward clearly.

Unexpectedly, it is still unclear.

Another member from the Council of Ten said thoughtfully:
"The goddess who represents mercy? And she's the eldest son. How strange! We only know that she exists, but we don't know her specific title. Your Majesty, do you know more? Perhaps that is related to this."

When Moon heard this voice, he subconsciously wanted to answer him.

But until he opened his mouth.

Only later did Moon realize another problem - he didn't remember!

He was clearly a member of the eldest sons, and he clearly stayed behind to mourn the Supreme Being who was clearly related to him.

But why can't he remember the name?

There has not even been any reaction?

And during this period, she has only been called and remembered as the goddess of mercy?
This feels like
Just like the white disaster???
To great consternation, Moon found a key.
