"Is the choice mine...? Well, if that's what you say, then I can feel at ease."
Representative Wendt paused for a moment, then gently rolled up his sleeve.
"It is an honor to be the decision-maker you have chosen, and Lady Ysera, as you said..."
After saying that, Wendt shoved his hand into his chest.
“I acknowledge her as our protector.”
Despite resembling an old man on the verge of death, his five fingers were as sharp as knives, piercing through his skin and tearing out his heart from his blood-soaked chest.
Within the beating heart valves, a spherical point of light is expanding.
“Mind… return to your master. Go and awaken the corrupted casket.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a pure white, slender beam of light burst forth from the heart held in Wendt's hand, piercing through the top of the palace and soaring into the sky.
At the same time, similar beams of light lit up across the mainland, one after another, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
From Loren to the Duchy, from Aslan to the Southern Continent, all those connected to the Spirit Brain radiated the same glow.
……
Within the chaos.
Ella suddenly felt a surge of heat in her chest, from which a faint glow emerged.
what is this?
She was puzzled, and then she saw golden lines spreading towards her from the boundless darkness.
The lines grew more numerous and denser, gradually transforming into a surging torrent, and before Ella's eyes unfolded another scroll of art, one that had remained hidden until now—
……
A faceless god, enveloped in radiance, gazed down upon the vast ocean from atop a temple atop a cliff.
The Dream God stood respectfully to one side. Although she still had that petite appearance, her demeanor was solemn and dignified, completely unlike the languid demeanor she had when she met Ye Xiao.
"Chaos... is already eroding your soul, Lord Haye."
"Instead of seeking revenge, you should probably think about how to protect yourself first."
“This is not about revenge, Ysera.”
The God of Light held his scepter, his voice gentle and steady.
"Chaos is a natural disaster, and I have no hatred for it."
"Then you..."
"The gods fight against natural disasters and protect all living beings; this is the promise we made to them."
"But now, there is no way to fight against it, is there? The plan to implant humanity has even stimulated the already terrifying chaos to give birth to its own intelligence."
"It has been proven that no consciousness can resist the corruption of chaos. Chaos originates from the malice of all the fallen gods in the void, and it is not something that a single will can fight against."
"One human might not be enough, but what about many?"
"You mean... overlapping consciousness?"
The Dream God frowned slightly. "Even if humanity is allowed to merge, it will only catalyze a second chaos... Lord Haye, the essence of consciousness is inclined towards evil, whether it is a god or a human."
"Not necessarily, Ysera."
The faceless god shook his head. "Chaos originates from the aggregation of malice, but the essence of consciousness is not only evil."
"It's all the same."
“It’s different. It became evil because it only saw evil at first, but if it could see the light, everything might change.”
"you……"
The Dream God paused for a moment, then said, "Lord Haya, I know this is disrespectful... but I really want to ask... are you out of your mind?"
"You want to raise a benevolent chaos?"
"Consciousness, which is not taught by me but born of humankind, should also be guided by humankind."
The God of Light seemed to smile. "The ultimate meaning of divine consciousness has already been defined by the existence of chaos."
"But humanity still has the opportunity to redefine its own roots."
"Even so, the consciousness born from humanity is weak. Even if the consciousness of all humans in this world were merged, it would still be impossible to reach the level of fighting against chaos..."
"Ysera, but what if... it could keep stacking?"
The God of Light opened his hand, and the laws of time flowed and changed in His palm.
"If we combine the consciousness of all humanity in this world, and then multiply it by tens of thousands of reincarnations..."
"Do you think the chaos born from humanity can contend with the chaos from the gods?"
The image disappeared, but at that moment Ella suddenly remembered the name she had first seen on the system.
Lydia Haye.
……
Above the void.
Lydia yawned and turned her gaze back to the ravaged world beneath her feet.
"I thought there would be something new and exciting."
Although what is seen from the Eye of Chaos is just a tiny glass bead, when Lydia, as an avatar, looks down upon it, the real world is also a vast and enormous planet.
The azure sea and the vast continent are now covered with black holes deeply eroded by chaos.
So slow.
Lydia thought that in the past, it wouldn't have taken her this long to destroy a world.
But of course, she did not develop the free spirit she has now back then.
Perhaps she should thank that wandering, nameless god, even though she had to spend tens of thousands of reincarnations fighting wits and courage against that damned human in this world, and even had her consciousness link severed and sealed into the seabed, almost allowing an ordinary girl to usurp her identity.
In the end, she did reclaim the power that belonged to her; it was only a matter of time, after all, she was immortal.
As chaos, as the root of all the evil of the gods in the void, as Lydia, let this slow but desperate twilight be considered her gift to this world.
As Lydia thought this, she raised her hand and mobilized several enormous tentacles to extend into the world beneath her feet, but then she was somewhat surprised to find that the tentacles seemed to be moving even more sluggishly than before.
what happened?
Lydia frowned slightly. She had been back in her original body for more than four days, so why hadn't her control over the Chaos Body increased... instead, it had decreased a little?
Especially... that tentacle that had just devoured Ella Haviere.
Lydia felt a strange unease rising in her heart. The last time she felt this way was when she encountered the fully realized "Ye Xiao" in countless reincarnations.
She probed her consciousness into the tentacle, sensing it flow like ripples across its middle section before suddenly stopping.
It was as if something was obstructing her divine senses, like a human raising their hand only to find one finger numb. This strange feeling continued to spread as Lydia's unease intensified.
She looked up in astonishment at the tip of the vast tentacles, a dazzling white, like a lily quietly blooming under the night sky.
"Ella Hayville!?"
Lydia reacted almost immediately, but she couldn't understand why this guy wasn't dead yet.
The next moment, a burst of snow-white radiance erupted, and a white sun with pale tentacles and golden pupils slowly emerged from the radiance.
Chapter 276 The Method of Defeating the Enemy
A faint white light dispelled the darkness, and Ella, who should have been corrupted, stretched out her six wings and slowly descended from the radiance beneath her golden eyes.
The large, jet-black tentacles seemed to be being assimilated in reverse, gradually transforming from the root tips into a sacred, pale white.
"Damn it! Why is this happening?!"
"Why do you possess the same divinity as me???"
Lydia frantically tried to use her dark tentacles to extinguish the golden light, but like a wildfire that a strong wind could not extinguish, the more she tried to suppress it, the bigger the fire became.
"What on earth is that?! It can even steal a god's essence...?!"
Lydia stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.
She stared at her own palm with a ferocious expression, as if she had finally realized something, her face contorted with rage.
"It's that thing!!! Damn it, that nameless god!!!"
"Looks like you've finally realized it."
Ella's lips curled up slightly, and her crimson eyes revealed that familiar slyness.
"When you used the Holy Ring to seize the divine status of other gods in order to break the seal, why didn't you think that one day that thing could also seize your divine status?"
"I must say, Miss Dream Goddess's trick was really well hidden. Only now do I finally understand everything. The three sacred artifacts that were deliberately stolen were actually the bait used to lure you in."
"The Holy Casket connects and accumulates human consciousness, constantly seizing the souls of the dead in countless cycles of world-ending wars to give birth to opposing chaos."
"The Holy Ring can seize the divine status. After you use it to kill countless righteous gods, it will gradually become part of your divine status."
"The true purpose of the three sacred artifacts left behind by the Light is not to pass on its power to humanity, but to completely defeat you."
As she spoke, a golden halo gradually appeared above Ella's head, and countless white lines emerged from the ethereal void, converging like streams at her chest.
She gently raised her hand, the glowing light swirling in her palm seeming to be calling out to something.
"Alright, I've finished explaining the functions of the Holy Casket and the Holy Ring. Now it's time for a no-prize quiz..."
"Miss Chaos, can you guess what the Holy Lance is used for?"
Lydia stared in astonishment at the world beneath her feet. In the northern part of the vast continental plate, a small golden dot was gradually shining.
There was a holy city in the north, and in the treasury atop the white tower, the long-dormant fragments of the Holy Spear suddenly shone with dazzling light.
The divine energy spread violently, surprising the Templar Knights who were guarding the treasury.
Then, they watched as the spearhead stood upright as if it were alive, flying up and breaking through the eaves in the holy light, its speed increasing rapidly, comparable to a rocket launching into the sky.
The golden light quickly broke through the atmosphere, like a comet piercing through the void, its tail trailing a brilliant arc in the boundless darkness.
"If it were a contemporary opera, they might chant some mysterious incantations at this point, but comparatively, I still prefer the lines from Earth; they're more concise and to the point..."
Ella chuckled and spread her five fingers.
"Here comes the gun!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a stream of light pierced through the darkness and rushed into her palm, bursting forth with golden brilliance almost comparable to a shining star.
The fragments of the Holy Lance extended in her palm, growing from the short spearhead into a dazzling spear adorned with gilded carvings.
"Damn!!!"
Lydia panicked now. She roared and waved her hand, commanding the chaotic sun behind her to smash down its dark tentacles.
She herself tried to forcibly pull her consciousness back to her original self. She had tried to do this before but failed, and thought it was because the connection was unstable due to the recent resurgence.
Therefore, she did not force herself to do it, fearing that the instability would cause her hard-won intelligence to disappear in the chaos.
But at this moment, she was horrified to discover that even if she tried to force her way back, the chaotic sun was actually rejecting her consciousness.
how so! ?
Lydia was pale, as if she were trapped inside this body.
Damn it, is even this body she stole a trap?!
"If two sub-accounts with the same permissions are logged in, the main account will be frozen."
Ella laughed and swept away the approaching tentacles with a single shot. "Solving this problem is simple, just leave one."
"Ella Haviere!!!"
Lydia clenched her fists, and the burst of divine power caused her hair and skirt to flutter.
"Then I'll grant your wish and send you to your death!!!"
Once again, two gods, one black and one white, clashed in the void.
The aftershocks of the clash between heavenly thunder and sacred fire spread among the stars, and even people on the earth could look up and see the spectacular sight of what looked like a planetary explosion in the sky.
But in this rematch, Lydia began to appear somewhat disheveled.
