I am GSD, a sword that explodes stars

Chapter 348: Trials and Problems

It wasn't long since Alvin returned to the Lant dimension to do some work and returned to the underworld again.

However, several months have passed inside the Phantom Tower of the Underworld.

"Going against the flow of time, blending perfectly into the past without being detected by time, the power of fate is truly mysterious."

Karon spoke when he saw Ivan return.

Karon can be sure that now there are three Taichu besides him, Ivan and Archangel Michael.

No other Primordial Ones knew of the existence of Esther, the Controller of Destiny.

Among them, Archangel Michael only knew that there was a Taichu who was sleeping, but he did not know his authority.

As for the Arbiter of Balance Edel, the Primordial Terror Moros, and other beings, they had no idea that in the endless dimension, there was a Primordial being named Esther hidden.

"As the incarnation of the power of destiny, it is inevitable that his abilities are mysterious and bizarre."

"Let's not talk about her abilities for now."

"Caron, what do you think about what Esther said?"

Alvin didn't pay attention to the situation inside the Phantom Tower for the time being. When he heard Karon's sigh, he asked.

"In the Taichu Universe, besides me, Moros and Edel, we have to abide by our own rules because of our special nature."

"As long as there is no threat of a large-scale attack on the border of the universe, the other Taichus will act alone and have their own plans."

"If the war breaks out first from within the primordial universe and gradually escalates into a reckless confrontation at the primordial level, the fate of the end of all things is indeed possible."

“But even if the authority of destiny takes shape and goes against the flow of time to seek a change in fate, it is difficult to prevent the fate of the end of all things.”

"As for the reason, my king should know it very well."

Upon hearing this, Caron understood what Ivan meant and expressed his own opinion.

Even though Esther has fully awakened and told the future fate of the Taichu Universe, it doesn’t mean that the other Taichus will really care.

Even once this matter is fully disclosed, other Taichu may still want to achieve certain plans and take the initiative to add fuel to the fire to make the Taichu universe fall into destruction faster.

As long as their plans succeed and make them stronger, or achieve certain goals, that's enough.

After all, the Taichu Universe completely collapsed, and even if it went to other universes to change its identity, Taichu is still Taichu.

As long as you are strong enough, you can find a place anywhere.

As for the hope of informing the strong men of the Taichu Universe and letting them join forces to fight the enemy in advance, unless someone can suppress them and force them to do so.

Otherwise, if you want them to suddenly show mercy after understanding the situation and be willing to work together to protect the Taichu Universe, you can just think about it in your dreams.

But other powerful people who are too junior did not intervene. Now the controller of destiny, Esther, has just recovered her memory and regained the authority over destiny, and her strength is not at its peak at all.

Charon can come to the world for a few days, but it is impossible for him to abandon the countless dead souls in the Primordial Universe and go to other universes to engage in a protracted war with other powerful beings.

Otherwise, before other universes can invade, the trouble caused by ghosts and gods will be enough to cause trouble for the Taichu Universe.

Therefore, the only two people who can move freely in Taichu are the King of the Underworld, Ivan, and the Archangel Michael.

It is not difficult to separate a few Taichu from the End Universe, not for the purpose of victory but just to deal with some troubles brought by Ivan and Archangel Michel.

"Sure enough, everything has come full circle."

Of course, Alvin understood what Caron said and what he meant.

What seems to be many choices before them now is actually only one choice.

That is to find the decisive force, so that the fate of all things can be changed.

Otherwise, if Esther, the incarnation of destiny, goes back in time, the only benefit she will get is that she can also go to other universes like other Taichu.

As for Esther's desire to reverse the trend of fate and save countless lives in the primordial universe, there is a high probability that all her efforts will ultimately be in vain.

"Of course, your decision, my king, is the decision of the underworld."

"You intend to join forces with the Master of Fate. The Underworld and I will fully support you."

Caron knew how difficult it was to reverse the trend of fate, but he did not refuse to participate in it.

"Help me open a gate to the underworld in the Sgri region of the Lant Dimension."

"I'm going to send a message to Remiel, asking Archangel Michael to come over."

"There are only three of us who know about this."

"Edler and Moros may be on our side."

"But regarding Esther, I still can't completely trust them both."

After hearing this, Alvin thought about it and spoke.

Because the temptation brought by the power of destiny is too great, especially since Esther has not yet fully recovered all her strength.

As long as one plans properly, it is entirely possible to steal part of the authority of the rules of destiny.

After hearing this, Caron didn't waste any time and raised his hand and a door appeared.

Through the power of waves, Ivan's voice penetrated through the portal and reached the ears of Remiel who was sleeping.

"???"

Remiel was awakened by the sudden sound, and his pajamas instantly turned into a long dress. He looked around.

"I'm still in the underworld at this moment, so don't look around."

"Send the message to Michele and ask him to come to the underworld."

Alvin sensed that Remiel was confused, and explained again what he wanted him to do.

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

Remiel didn't know why Alvin planned to look for Archangel Michael after half a year.

However, her stay in the Lant dimension, in addition to observing the King of the Underworld and broadening her horizons, also has a responsibility, which is to act as a messenger between the two parties.

Remiel immediately lost consciousness, returned to his original form, and then quickly went to find Lord Michel.

As Remiel hurriedly appeared, with a "bang", Michel's holy coffin was opened.

"What's the hurry?"

Archangel Michel took the initiative to ask.

"Mr. Ivan asked me to ask you to go to the underworld as soon as possible. I don't know what happened."

Upon hearing this, Remiel cut to the chase and reported the situation directly.

"it is good."

Archangel Michael nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Then he spread his wings of light and stretched out his hand. A holy light burst out and a passage appeared.

He flew directly in and arrived outside the underworld in the next second.

Only a few minutes had passed since Alvin wanted to find Michelle.

Archangel Michael has already appeared in the Temple of Ghosts and Gods.

"Using the law of time to bless, the time flow rate is a hundred times faster, and then making the rules of ghosts and souls concrete, while giving blessings and allowing them to gain insights and become stronger through battle, what a big move."

Archangel Michael had just arrived and he saw through the situation of the Phantom Tower of the Underworld at a glance.

It is filled with time laws rather than time rules, which means that this is entirely the work of the underworld, and not something that the underworld has worked together with the balance arbitrator Adler to create.

Because if the Balance Arbiter takes action, time is definitely the rule.

I really don’t know how the underworld controls the laws of time.

"This is just to improve the overall strength of the underworld."

"Please take a seat. I have something important to discuss with you this time."

Upon hearing this, Ivan said casually, letting Michelle do as she pleases.

Hearing this, Archangel Michel's wings of light trembled and a feather of light fell down, and a golden throne appeared in the air, standing parallel to the position of Ivan Karon.

"The sleeping mysterious Taichu has awakened."

As soon as Alvin opened his mouth, he revealed a bombshell.

"What rules and authority does He hold?"

When Archangel Michel heard this, his eyes narrowed, the flashing of his wings of light accelerated, and his tone became serious.

"Because everything ends and the rules of everything no longer exist, the incarnation of fate returns against the flow of time."

Ivan's words were brief, but they revealed a lot of information.

"What do you need me to do?"

Upon hearing this, the fingers of Archangel Michelle's hands trembled involuntarily.

This is the power of destiny, and the meaning contained in it is truly too terrifying.

"She wants to join forces with us to proactively launch a counterattack."

"But after discussion between me and Caron."

"Even if we are willing to join forces to counterattack, it will be difficult to gain a chance to change the fate of the country."

"Because the enemy that caused the end of all things is not just the Taichu hidden in the End Universe."

"There are other powerful people who have always coveted the Primordial Universe."

"We have two Taichus in charge of the underworld. Although they are slightly stronger, they can only barely protect themselves in the face of such a fate."

Ivan looked directly at Archangel Michael and spoke slowly.

"So you're not going to participate?"

When Archangel Michael heard that the enemies did not only come from the End Universe, he knew that it would be extremely difficult to reverse the situation. However, he did not feel angry or pressured. Instead, he clenched his fists because he understood what Ivan meant.

"The primordial beings from other universes have joined forces."

"But the interior of our primordial universe is just a bowl of loose sand."

"The relationship between the junior masters is not as harmonious as you think."

“So it is wise to plan ahead to protect ourselves so that we can eventually retreat calmly.”

Ivan seemed not to notice Michelle's anger and his face remained calm.

"Then the countless lives in the endless dimensions of the primordial universe should all be buried here?"

"What a wise move."

Archangel Michel's indifferent silver eyes burst into brilliant divine light, and his voice was filled with suppressed anger.

"Although each of the Taichu strongmen is powerful, they have unparalleled confidence in their own strength."

"So I understand your anger and your desire not to back off."

“But even a primordial strongman, facing the rolling tide of fate, is just a small wave in the vast ocean, and can only influence a limited situation.”

"So what if you can deal with two or three junior masters at the same time? There are more than two or three enemies."

"It hasn't been that long since you were trapped in the End Universe. You probably haven't forgotten it."

"Even if you have forgotten that incident, now that you are facing the two of us, even if you feel angry and want to scold us and fight with us, you subconsciously suppress your anger."

"We also come from the primordial universe and can understand your thoughts, so we won't take your anger to heart."

"But you will definitely encounter this situation in the future."

Alvin sensed the anger in Michelle's heart. He wanted to be angry, but because of concerns, he did not dare to fully release the anger in his heart.

"You saved me last time, I owe you a favor."

“I will never deny this.”

"Just tell me what you want, and I'll do everything I can to get it done for you."

"Then we'll be even."

Upon hearing this, Archangel Michel suppressed his anger and said in a cold voice.

"I want you to protect yourself with me, and then the Angel Dimension will retreat safely with the Underworld."

"With the underworld and the angel dimension, we can easily take root even if we go to an unknown and unfamiliar universe."

"By becoming a giant among them, our power will not change, nor will the things we can do. It will just be a different world."

“This is the most time-saving, labor-saving and wisest choice.”

Upon hearing this, Alvin put forward his own request.

"Then I can join forces with you to ensure a safer departure from the underworld."

"But if you want me and Angel Dimension to retreat directly like you guys... I will never agree to this."

"I will lead the Angel Dimension to fight until the last moment."

Upon hearing this, Archangel Michael did not refuse to repay the favor in this way. He just put forward his own request and wanted to say some stinging words, but in the end he did not say them.

"You don't have a deep understanding of the true secrets of the Endless Dimension, and you don't know the horror of the fate."

“Ignorance can bring fearless courage, but even the most fearless courage is useless when faced with overwhelming odds.”

Ivan's face remained calm, and there was a sense of superiority in his words.

"I am indeed full of unknowns about the mysteries of the endless dimension."

"I also know that you, the powerful primordial masters who have existed since the birth of the universe and are high above everyone else, look down on the powerful new generation like me."

"But I know that the Primordial Universe is the land where I was born."

"I can't be like you, looking down on the world from a high place, watching the land where I was born being conquered, without thinking of stopping it, but only thinking of protecting myself and finding a new place to live. I'm sorry."

"To put it nicely, it's a wise move. To put it bluntly, it's a bunch of wimps who think they can't win and retreat without doing anything."

When Archangel Michael saw Ivan's condescending attitude, he could no longer hold back his anger and called Ivan and Caron cowards.

"Be careful!"

Karon's voice was as loud as the sky, and the terrifying soul pressure shook down.

"Why, you dare to do it, but you dare not let others say it?"

"Even if you change the universe and live under a different code name, what does it matter if countless people don't know your true past? Do you think that you can erase the fact that you retreated in a cowardly manner?"

Archangel Michael spread his wings of light, and endless silver holy light enveloped himself, resisting the soul pressure.

"What you said is indeed true. Some things that happened cannot be erased." "But you are too impulsive. Some things should be seen through but not said out loud to maintain the dignity of both parties."

"When each other's dignity is torn apart, there will be no room for reconciliation."

"There is no room for moderation and things are going to become extreme."

Ivan looked at Michelle's angry expression and said indifferently.

"You can call me extreme or ignorant."

"I will never forget the favor I owe you. When the time comes, I will repay you for it."

"It's just that I originally thought you were a special Taichu, but I didn't expect that you are no different from other Taichu."

Archangel Michael simply resisted the soul pressure and did not choose to take direct action. He just stared coldly at Ivan and Karon, stood up and prepared to leave.

"You can't leave now. You can leave after we finish our business."

When Alvin saw that Archangel Michael wanted to leave, he had already fully understood Michael's attitude towards the end of the universe, so he spoke.

"How do you want me to cooperate with you then? Tell me quickly."

Archangel Michael wanted to turn around and leave immediately, but because he still owed Alvin a favor, he had to endure it. However, his attitude was not as friendly as before, and he did not sit down. He planned to leave after the talk.

"I find that what you say makes a lot of sense."

"So I changed my mind. I want you to join forces with me to launch a counterattack."

The calmness on Ivan's face melted away and turned into appreciation, and he spoke.

"……What's the meaning?"

When Archangel Michel heard Ivan's change of tone from self-protection to counterattack, the anger in his heart was temporarily frozen because of the words of joining forces to counterattack.

"Everything my king just said was just a test for you."

"The matter of the incarnation of the authority of the rules of destiny is of great importance."

"Most of the Taichu in the Taichu Universe are lone rangers, and some of them are even just for fun, causing things to get out of hand."

"There aren't many strong people we can trust."

"So we must verify your attitude towards the end of the world."

"This is to verify whether you are qualified to join forces with me and my king."

"Because in the face of a potentially worsening situation in the future, those who are not extremely determined may turn against their own side in the middle of the battle."

Although Caron had not discussed this matter with Ivan, he heard Ivan say that he wanted to protect himself.

He knew that Alvin was intending to test Archangel Michael's true attitude.

So he remained silent with great skill, until the Archangel Michael said something offensive, then he took action to intimidate him.

In terms of attitude and temperament, Archangel Michael has an extremely strong character, but is also a little too impulsive.

Knowing that there would be no good outcome if they completely broke off relations and offended him and the King of the Underworld, Ivan, he still called them cowards.

Judging from the results of the temptation, Archangel Michael's temperament still needs to be polished.

The game between the powerful primordial warriors cannot be won by impulse alone.

Many times, we have to pretend to be nice to the other party and maintain the most basic decency in order to delay the situation or achieve superficial cooperation.

Otherwise, if you are unwilling to maintain even basic decency, you can't blame the other party for personally coming out to cause trouble for you.

"..."

When Archangel Michael heard this, he didn't know where to vent his anger.

"Taichu, who holds the power of destiny, has an extremely powerful authority."

"But now she has not fully recovered."

“If the malicious Taichu knew about this, with proper planning, it would be entirely possible for him to devour it and steal its authority to become even stronger.”

"That's why I'm testing your true attitude."

"I apologize if this makes you angry or upset."

"Sit down, and let's talk about the real difficulties we are facing."

Ivan sensed that Michelle was both angry and surprised, and spoke slowly.

"Are the Arbiter of Balance, Edel, and the Primordial Terror, Moros, both untrustworthy?"

"And why did you test me first?"

When Archangel Michel heard the apology, the anger in his heart deflated like a ball. He sat down again, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, and asked a question.

"Due to some unexpected reasons, you are one of the people who know that the light of hope is the sleeping Taichu."

"So I can only test you, and then try to get you to act with me."

"Some of them, such as the Arbiter of Balance, Edel, and the Primordial Terror, Moros, may be on the same side as us."

"But even if they agree to join forces, it can only bring us some convenience for what we really want to do, but it cannot play a crucial role."

"Because they are both essentially like Kallon, and cannot be away from their duties for long."

"It is even more impossible for them to directly invade other universes like us and start a protracted war."

"To be honest, in our camp, only you and I can act as the true peak combat force."

"The ones below are only able to deal with the followers, subordinates and allies of the Transcendents at most."

"With the cooperation of the underworld and the angel dimension, the two Taichu will go to confront the powerful ones from various universes who are bound to attack."

"In terms of lineup, whether we admit it or not, we are at an absolute disadvantage."

"Maybe even if we fight till the end, we won't be able to find a glimmer of hope to reverse the fate and change the outcome of being forced to withdraw."

Upon hearing this, Alvin explained the real reason for the test.

"Is there no way for the other Taichu to unite them?"

When Archangel Michel heard this, he felt a little confused.

"So you don't understand the true situation in the beginning."

"Since the beginning of the universe, there have been many powerful people who were born with some kind of authority at the same time as them."

“Everything in the universe can be considered an ant.”

“Of course, they have different things they care about.”

"But as long as the disaster does not affect them, they will not care whether several dimensions are destroyed."

"If the Taichu Universe is invaded head-on, some of them will fight back after they learn of it."

"However, this counterattack was not motivated by any kind of righteousness. It was simply to demonstrate their own dignity and to make those who dared to provoke them pay the price."

"This is the dignity of the strong, or you could say arrogance."

"But the chance we are trying to get now is different. We need to take the initiative and enter other universes to gain results before we can find it."

"Do you understand the difference?"

Of course, Alvin could understand Michelle's confusion.

After all, the Taichu Universe will soon face a catastrophe that will affect the entire universe. In the face of such a crisis, if we don’t join forces in advance to deal with it, then when will we be able to join forces?

This seemingly normal idea actually has different standpoints.

Because both Alvin and Michelle care about ordinary creatures and do not completely regard all weak people as ants.

However, other Taichu did not care about the life and death of ordinary creatures. Coupled with their arrogant beliefs, they looked down on the strong in other universes and their confidence in being able to protect themselves no matter what the situation.

It is not an easy task to make them feel that the end of the universe is a crisis and join hands to strangle it in advance.

Moreover, among each Taichu, there may be many powerful people who are afraid that the world will not be in chaos and want to change the internal structure of the Taichu universe.

Even Taichu, who wanted to destroy everything but was unable to do so because the timing was wrong in the past.

Everyone knows that arrogance is not a good virtue, but no one can completely get rid of arrogance.

For example, people who have no worries about food and clothing and have a bright future cannot understand why there are still homeless people in the world and why there are still people who are hungry.

However, those who have no worries about food and clothing and have a bright future are just workers in the eyes of richer people. The mere difference in money and status leads to countless arrogance and incomprehension.

For the world of the strong, this arrogance caused by the gap in strength will be even worse.

Not to mention that when the Taichu strongman was born, he was at the top of the universe and could do whatever he wanted.

Even Adler, the arbitrator of balance who was responsible for maintaining the balance of the primordial universe, could not do anything to them, so how could they understand what humility was.

Even Alvin himself has his own pride and needs.

Sallylan is someone he cares about, so when Sallylan violates certain taboos, the Balance Arbitrator Adler wants to punish her.

Caron and Ivan stepped forward to protect him without hesitation.

Segret was supposed to be an existence that could never reach the realm of the Transcendent throughout all timelines.

Ivan also took the initiative to help Segret, causing something that shouldn't have happened to happen.

Alvin knew that in the eyes of the Balance Arbiter Adler, he and Kallon were people who would try to trample on the rules when necessary, but they did not trample on the rules so frequently.

"Can't we try to divert the trouble to others and let those guys suffer in advance, forcing them to take action?"

Archangel Michael already understood the difference, so he didn't plan to persuade him with words, and had to take another risky approach.

"I have seen through your mind. You know there are too many uncertain factors in diverting trouble."

“This is a solution, but it’s not a good solution.”

Ivan sensed Michelle's mood and spoke.

"I also know that this is not a good idea, but as long as it can prevent the primordial universe from falling into an end."

"Even if there are some hidden dangers left, it is much better than the end of everything."

Michelle knew that Ivan possessed many methods and could see through the true thoughts of all living beings, so he didn't mind being seen through. He was just discussing how to choose between disaster and the end.

"The beginning cannot be challenged. If you try to divert the trouble, no matter how perfect your plan is."

"They each use their own methods, so it's not difficult to see what the specific situation is."

"Even if the Primordial Universe is finally saved, your Angel Dimension will not be saved."

"You may be forced to flee, and the Angel Dimension will be destroyed. Are you willing to bear this cost?"

Caron had been listening, and now he had to speak.

"..."

Michelle was speechless for a moment when she heard this question.

"You are hesitant, which means you don't want to see that outcome, so give up the idea of ​​diverting trouble."

Seeing that Michelle couldn't give an answer for a while, Caron began to advise.

"Okay, but if we don't drag them into this by force, is there any other way to unite them?"

"Although I would like to say that we can accomplish something just by the two of us, I know that is just self-deceiving and arrogant."

Michelle was convinced by the price Caron mentioned. After realizing that he couldn't take any risky moves, he didn't know how to seek that glimmer of hope.

“Let’s discuss the matter of uniting all of Taichu to attack together for now.

"Next, I'll bring Esther over to have a chat and understand the true situation in the future."

"She can help us identify who we can trust and who we absolutely cannot trust."

Alvin is already trying to find a way to kill Taichu completely, as long as his plan succeeds.

Then, no matter whether the strong men of the Taichu Universe are willing to unite or not, it will not be decided by those guys, but by Ivan alone.

Every powerful primordial being is a great being that can be called immortal, so they are more unwilling to face death than ordinary people.

However, only Ivan and Caron know about this at present, and it is not known whether it is really feasible.

Alvin didn't want to tell everyone about it before he accomplished it, so as not to be embarrassed if he failed to accomplish it.

So he didn't mention to Michelle that he might have a better idea.

"It turns out that you are the light of hope in this dimension. Has you truly awakened?"

When Michelle heard the name Esther, a look of horror appeared on his face.

Alvin only said that the sleeping Taichu has awakened, but he did not specify which dimension the light of hope has been revived, so it is possible that the light of hope in other dimensions has been revived.

"It was probably a coincidence. To be honest, it was beyond my expectation that she could awaken so quickly."

Ivan spoke up upon hearing this.

As soon as Ivan finished speaking, Karon knew what was going on and directly opened a door to the underworld in the Lant dimension.

"Esther, if you have time to talk now, please come to the underworld."

Ivan's voice passed through the gate of the underworld and reached Esther's ears in the form of fluctuating sound.

"it is good."

Esther heard the sound and followed the direction of the sound, her body split into two.

One stayed in the Lant dimension, waiting for the destined person to find him, while the real person entered the underworld.

When Esther stepped out of the gate of the underworld.

When Michelle saw Esther's face, he found that it was completely different from the information provided by Remiel.

According to the full-body images provided by Remiel, Esther is very beautiful and has a gentle temperament, which makes people easily like her at first sight.

But at most, she is a beautiful woman with good temperament who can quickly blend in with the crowd.

But now Esther's appearance has become flawless, and her whole body is full of divinity. People can feel Esther's mystery and extraordinaryness at a glance, and can't help but respect her.

"My name is Esther, and I am here to meet Mr. Ivan, the King of the Underworld, Mr. Karon, the Lord of the Underworld, and Mr. Michel, the Archangel."

After Esther walked out of the gate to the underworld, she saw the environment she was in and knew that this was the temple of the underworld. Looking at the few powerful people present, a polite smile appeared on her flawless face.

Of course, Esther is also very aware of how special her identity is.

When facing Ivan, she could tell him her true origins openly and confidently.

Because without Ivan's help, she didn't know how long she would have to wait before she could be fully recovered.

However, when facing other people, Esther naturally couldn't be completely defenseless.
