Durin's Diary

Chapter 689 Trial
Eleven, come out and see what this is.

Du Lin couldn't recognize this thing - it was different from the life-support capsule that Du Lin encountered in the ravine that year. The life-support capsule that Du Lin encountered that year was pod-shaped, but this thing was purely round, and from the outside there didn't seem to be any openings.

Eleven crawled out directly from Du Lin's palm. It scanned for a while and then let out a wow.

“I suggest not turning it on.”

"why."

In response to Eleven's suggestion, Dulin and Duke Alessandro asked in unison.

"Well, let me show you what I scanned."

Eleven finished speaking and projected the scanned content onto the wall.

What Dulin and the old duke saw was a skeleton. The bones were not scary, what was scary was that it could move.

"This thing has silver plating between its middle layer and interior. It's probably the undead or something even more sinister, so I suggest you contact the church." Eleven said this, then began to examine the sphere again. "It should be a life support pod of a different craftsmanship, but I can't find the entrance. It seems the outer shell is completely sealed."

"I'll go contact that person." After saying that, Du Lin opened the portal and asked the old duke to keep an eye on this thing personally and not let anyone get close to it.

Duke Alessandro had no choice - he asked his steward to find the local Bishop of the Church of the Original Creator.

………………

When the incarnation of reason heard about Durin's discovery, he immediately followed Durin to the northern border. At that time, the Bishop of the Original Creator had not arrived yet.

The Avatar of Reason frowned when he saw the ball: "This is the Lord of the Ghouls."

"What?" The old duke was a little surprised that this grassland elf with a Tang-like appearance could speak the original language, but what surprised him even more was what he said: "The Lord of the Ghouls has clearly fallen. How could it... how could it be imprisoned in here!?"

"The Lord of Ghouls, I've never heard of it." Du Lin was very curious.

"It's normal that you haven't heard of it, because it fell a hundred years ago and was killed by the original creator himself." Duke Alessandro supplemented Dulin's knowledge and also mentioned the Demon Lord - the two guys were in cahoots with each other back then, and then one day they played a big game, and unfortunately, they alarmed the Nameless One.

So one was skinned and his tendons were pulled out and he died, and the other had his kingdom of God demolished and wandered around the world.

"The Primordial Creator slew the Ghoul Lord's divine incarnation. This is its true form." The Avatar of Reason said, looking at the old Duke. "Duke Alessandro, when you found this object, was it being worshiped by Chaos followers? Are there any inscribed symbols on it?"

"Yes, we cleared the entire city. When we found it, Chaos believers were performing human sacrifices, but the priests accompanying the army washed away the symbol with holy water."

"Well done, Your Highness the Nameless One, you killed the divine incarnation of the Ghoul Lord. What lies within is its human form. The gods of the old times were so pathetic, but compared to the gods of the new era, they possess precious freedom." Having said this, the incarnation of rationality looked at the portal that opened and said, "Busy man, what brings you here?"

"I heard that you found the human body of the zombie, so I came to take a look." As the anonymous man said this, he waved his hand and a chair grew legs and ran to him.

"Your arrival brings honor to the Alessandro family," the old duke saluted hastily. "It's alright, you're old. Sit down and talk. I'm here today to send an enemy to face his end." The Nameless One finished speaking, looking at Durin and the embodiment of reason beside him. "Who will kill this fellow?"

"Let me do it," the incarnation of rationality said with a smile. "Du Lin shouldn't be involved in this karma. This is the arena where life fought for survival in our old era. This is the suffering we should face."

"You," the Nameless Man said, then looked at Du Lin. "Du Lin, facing the human form of a god, let me put it this way: if you kill it, you will gain the remnants of its divinity, and then you will be able to successfully ascend to godhood through these remnants."

"And become another Ghoul Lord?" Dulin said with a smile, looking at Duke Alessandro. "I think neither my lover nor my friends would want me to become such a monster."

"Duke Alessandro, did you see that? A young man faced with such an opportunity to ascend to heaven in one step, becoming a god, yet he maintained the bottom line of humanity. Your grandson-in-law is truly remarkable."

"Yes, Mr. Anonymous, you are right. It's a pity that he is not a relative of Alessandro, otherwise I would be proud to have such a grandson." The old Duke said with a smile.

"Nothing is perfect in this world. The Alessandro family is firmly defending the northern border. I am relieved that you haven't been dazzled by this world."

After saying that, the Nameless Man snapped his fingers, and the Duke's Mansion disappeared. The four people present and the sphere appeared in the endless wilderness.

The outer shell of this original sphere has been broken, revealing the pod-like life support cabin inside.

"Sure enough, this guy escaped from the research center. He naively thought that he would be free after leaving there, but he never thought about how gods could cross over into the mortal world. Nuwa's power protects this land, and he is just a villain." The incarnation of rationality said as he watched the pod-type life support cabin open.

And Du Lin watched the skeleton crawl out from among them.

It looked at the world in front of it, and finally saw Dulin, Alessandro, and the two behind Dulin.

Anonymous! You strange god from another world! Why are you still here? As great as I am! I will definitely take revenge on you! I am immortal! You don't want to kill me! I know!
"I only killed your divine incarnation. I have already purified the fragments of your incarnation. Do you think I am a god like you who feed on devouring?" The Nameless One sighed. "You old cowards, you only know how to devour the waste of innocent lives. Have you ever seen the Nine Hells, the Lord of Hell, that higher-dimensional being, or the Chaos of the Warp? You can't even defeat them. You haven't even seen them. How can you be so great?"

After saying this, the Nameless Man pulled out an ancient long sword from his space and handed it to the incarnation of rationality.

"Pale justice, I always thought it was just a product of literary and artistic creation, a beauty that mortals who yearn for justice cannot obtain." The incarnation of rationality sighed as he picked up the sword.

"In my world, too many lives yearn for justice. Their posthumous obsessions have transformed into this sword. I simply carry it with me, traveling through world after world, witnessing the fall of one evildoer after another at the hands of the obsessions of all living beings." The Nameless One said this, looking at Durin. "If you encounter another Old God, as long as you kill its incarnation, you should experience a flashback, witnessing its final mortal journey and knowing where its human body is hidden."

Dulin nodded and looked at the skeleton in front of him. It roared and tried to escape, but countless roots swept it and tied it up.

The incarnation of rationality stepped on the back of the skeleton, raised his sword, and stabbed it down hard.

As it wailed, he gripped the hilt tightly.

"Guarderrama Swaci, Senior Researcher of the EU Artificial Biology Project, Researcher No. 55459. On behalf of humanity, I judge you."
