Soul of Burning Steel

Starfall 837, on June 20th, the usual complaints from the maids came from the Moldavian lord's mansion.

"Master, it's been almost two or three years since you brought us into a serious battle..."

Near the portal on the top floor of the lord's mansion, Yingying stretched her waist, and the girl whispered to Joshua who was about to pass through the portal with a bored face: "Okay, I know you are so strong that you don't need weapons anymore ..."

"This time, the master is going to a very distant world to assist the steel python... let alone us, even Master Nostradamus and the others, the master did not invite."

On the side, Rin explained to the silver-haired girl rather helplessly. Compared with Hotaru, who is obsessed with his "weapon" status, he has no obsession with this aspect. Whether it is handling government affairs, managing affairs inside and outside the lord's mansion, or planning the Radcliffe family's property, in his opinion There is no distinction between them and fighting, they are all things that can help the master.

"But you keep us at home all the time, and always feel so useless."

Unwilling, Yingying muttered softly, she knew that this journey to another world might be extremely dangerous, after all, this is a trouble that even the will of the world cannot solve, and she needs to entrust other powerful foreign aid to deal with it, but she is not afraid Dangerous, she is only afraid that she is useless to Joshua, so that she has no value in existence.

No. 3 and Hei with the small light were talking softly at the side. The artificial intelligence girl who had chatted with Joshua a long time ago seemed to be saying something that frightened the Black Dragon—like some daily mandatory use. Frozen magic awakening, 500-kilometer flight training before breakfast, etc... This is what Joshua commissioned No. 3 to ensure that Hei can still exercise normally when he goes to another world. Sleeping, wanting to wake it up is not a simple matter.

"If you really want to explore with me."

At the same time, Joshua, who was about to step through the portal, turned his head. He looked at Hotaru and Rin who were obediently staying in place. His calm expression became a little subtle. The soldier said softly, "Then become stronger."

"Firefly, Rin, and No. 3 and Hei, you are all very talented. Some of you are born with psionic bodies, some of you are alchemy creations at the level of artificial goblins, some of you are artificial souls from the Karlis world, and some of you are black dragons with the blood of ancient dragons. ...With the mass-spirit conversion equation and the inheritance I left behind, your progress speed should be more than ten times that of ordinary people—in fact, Yingying, aren’t you already gold-level? If one day, you If the strength of the doll has reached the middle level of extreme intention, then it should be able to keep up with my pace."

Joshua never liked walking alone at the forefront of the world. He always hoped that someone could keep up with him...but he would never slow down for this. He was very pleased to be able to keep up, but if he couldn't keep up, then he couldn't keep up, he was willing to protect them.

Because of the inheritance of the gods and the conversion equation of mass and spirit, No. 3's strength has improved rapidly, so there is no need to worry. If Yingying, Rin, and Hei want to get rid of their current embarrassing position, they must either choose to give up, or grit their teeth and use transcendence Ordinary people worked ten times harder to catch up with his shadow.

"Don't worry about me, I think this exploration should not be difficult."

Turning around, Joshua turned again and stepped through the portal. With his back facing everyone, Joshua said calmly, "According to what Karlis said, this should be a small world, and it won't take long."

"Come on, my weapon, I hope that when I come back, you will make great progress."

After speaking, accompanied by a faint blue light like waves, the warrior entered the space-time channel and disappeared.

The farewell people also left one by one, whether it was Hotaru or Rin, whether it was dark or light, even No. 3 seemed more silent than before. Joshua's words didn't have much embellishment, they were very true. They were all thinking about how to get close to their master at this moment.

In any case, living in the home of a strong man is indeed very hard work.

And at this moment, in the study room on the second floor of the lord's mansion, with the flow of a trace of holy light, a piece of flat and white letter paper slowly appeared in a small magic circle next to the desk.

This piece of letter paper is made of exquisite materials, and it can be seen that it comes from a place with a very high level of craftsmanship. It is not wrapped in an envelope, but there is a layer of holy light shrouding its outside. At this time, the holy light is rapidly dissipating, and the white paper. As a result, the text gradually emerged.

[To my friend Lord Radcliffe]

Able to see the first and only page of the letter.

"My friend, I am quite shocked by your views on the soul and the ultimate meaning of the soul."

This is a letter. The writer's handwriting is beautiful and ancient, with the style of conjoined characters from the last century. His handwriting is very similar to the standard handwriting commonly used in the Far South... But if you look carefully, it is not so much What he writes seems to be a standard style of writing, but it is better to say that the standard style of writing is a reference to him. At this time, the person who defined the standard seemed to be quite surprised, so that his handwriting floated a little: "Deniing the innate nature of the soul and emphasizing the relationship between the soul and the body, this can be said to propose a new way of thinking for the study of the soul , your contribution is very great, if possible, I would like to sort out your letters and publish them in the official academic journal of the Holy Mountain."

"At the same time, I think I also need to explain to you, the results obtained by the Seven Sacred Mountains over the years of observing the soul, as well as the relationship between the soul cycle that everyone talks about and the world we live in, and how it is the same. Something happened."

Speaking of this, the excited handwriting has calmed down, as if the author has regained his composure at this time, he wrote seriously and seriously: "First of all, I must tell you this point, that is, the world is actually receiving information from the void all the time. energy of."

"Void rays, space-time fluctuations, external energy tides... Before the great tide comes, every world is actually receiving a large amount of energy from the void, but these energies are only short-lived, and they will quickly pass through our world, even the big The same is true for the demonic tide, if it is not for the continuous eruption of the great demonic tide, then it is just a glimpse for us."

"Nothing can retain these waves of energy that seem to spill over after the destruction of the world (forgive Barbarossa, I caught him and learned what you were talking about the other day), but the soul can. The soul can capture these waves from aliens. The energy of the world, and self-strengthening... The more the population, the more souls, and the more energy left behind, and after all living beings pass away, the soul circulates in the world, turning into the reincarnation of the soul, returning all the energy absorbed in a lifetime In the world... can you understand?"

"The circulation of the soul will continuously strengthen the energy concentration inside a world! And this energy can definitely be used for the cultivation of extraordinary power. As long as there is a little bit of extraordinary power that can give birth to the world of the soul, then its extraordinary power The concentration of power will be higher and higher, stronger and stronger, the smaller the world, the faster the concentration of extraordinary power will rise!"

But at the last paragraph of this letter, the handwriting is slightly different from before. It seems that the words were not written at the same time, and the handwriting has become a lot scribbled.

"According to the gods, the Mycroft world should have been partly blown up by the war between sages and evil gods at the end of the last era. Today's Mycroft world is much smaller than it was in the Glorious Era, about two One-tenth of the size, so the energy concentration of our world returned to its heyday very quickly, and soon returned to the level of the Glorious Era, and was even thicker."

"The Boundless Heaven Realm is the product of the war. It was originally part of the sky in Mycroft's world. The gods set up a time-space barrier and turned it into their own throne. It was originally an extremely important part of the cycle of souls, but now , but became the burial place of the gods, we guided it back to the world of Mycroft, completing a part of the reincarnation of the soul... The innocent souls who were originally wandering around the world now finally have a resting place."

At this time, the author seemed a little tired, but he still wrote seriously: "To be honest, the reason why I reply so late is because a major event happened recently, which involved a lot of my energy. If possible, Joshua, please contact me as soon as possible, this matter is very important and extremely special, perhaps only you have the ability to solve it."

"—Seven Sacred Mountains, Eagle."

The letter has appeared, but the recipient has left for an unknown place.

And at this moment, the Battleship of the Holy Mountain, Fortress of Glory, and the central control area of ​​the 'Eye of the Holy One' Observatory.

More than a dozen elite clergymen are working hard in the spherical hall, facing light curtains. They control hundreds of observation circles and add them up one after another, turning them into big or small ones. Observation points that can penetrate space turbulence. These observation points will be operated day and night under the control of three shifts of priests, observing and monitoring all abnormal conditions around the world of Mycroft.

Whether it is space-time turbulence, energy fluctuations or massive mass sags, these anomalies are under the monitoring of the Eye of the Holy One Observatory, and the observation members are summarizing all the information in detail and reporting it to the master of the Holy Mountain Center room, most of these information are meaningless space-time fluctuations, or noises caused by an energy tremor, but no one will slack off because of this.

"Interval 58-92 is non-anomalous."

"There is no abnormality in the interval 93-121."

"There is an abnormality in section 131: a small piece of void meteorite is flying towards the world of Mycroft. Detection result: no foreign bacteria remain. Treatment method: wait and see passively."

"No abnormal signal detected."

In the control area, the clergy sent out a series of report text messages through their spirits. They seemed to be searching for something. Whenever they found an abnormal signal, everyone present would be shocked, and after confirming that it was nothing but void After the most common disordered signal, they will return to normal again.

And in the center of the control area, there is a white-haired old man standing here. Under the respectful eyes of everyone around him, Igor is monitoring all the signal stations at the same time. His face is calm, but he seems to be waiting for something .

"Hiss..."

"An abnormal signal was detected in section 157."

The clergyman who controls the observation point skillfully issued a signal reminder. Although it was just an inaudible hiss, it was probably just a meaningless short wave caused by void rays interfering with the observation circle, but his duty was to report everything different.

"Hiss...la."

"Repeatedly observed anomaly."

It is very normal for the priest to send out a second reminder signal again. After all, if there is energy interference at the observation point, it is expected even if it is a dozen times in a row. The priest who works here even He was ready to continuously send out reminder signals, and at the same time, he was thinking about whether to eat barbecue for dinner. The cultivation center in the void of the Holy Mountain Fortress had a good harvest a few days ago. Can be self-sufficient.

"Hiss...we..."

"Repeatedly observed anomalies...wait!"

The middle-aged clergyman, who was thinking about whether to spend dinner extravagantly to eat barbecue, or to eat bread and mashed potatoes in the cafeteria, skillfully issued a reminder signal, but soon, he froze. The clergyman felt himself It seems that I heard the voice of Mycroft's common language just now... Is he hallucinating? Or is there really such a voice? All in all, he intends to highlight this abnormal signal.

However, before he could make his next move, more and clearer signals came.

"Hiss... zi... la... here... is... the big information bank... the watchman... report... hiss..."

"Found a clear alien signal!"

Without hesitation, the middle-aged clergyman immediately put aside the barbecue, bread and mashed potatoes in his mind, and he sent out the highest-level 'Observer' signal-this means that he has discovered life in another world, or has The highest-level signal that can communicate or travel in the void. According to the process, the priest first saved the signal that just appeared through the intelligent core of the observatory, and then uploaded it layer by layer according to the authority, and because his highest-level signal was sent out, he simultaneously monitored all the observation points in the 1-200 interval Both shift targets and search at full power.

And Igor, who was standing in the control room, opened his eyes wide: because he monitored all the observation points at the same time, he also heard the voice—not a hallucination, but the real Mycroft Common Language, this voice is a bit weird, The accent is very different from today's lingua franca, but anyone can understand this dialect-like language.

Finally the wait came. The old man thought so.

And the next wait didn’t take long. With the highest notification sent out, all the priests who were working confirmed that the signal was true, and when they gathered the observation points in the interval 157, a clearer signal appeared in everyone’s ears. .

"...The internal circulation has collapsed, and we can no longer survive. The material transformation circle can still operate, but we no longer have the material to circulate."

This is a tired female voice, her tone is very strange, it seems that she seldom speaks to people, and there are many grammar problems, but no one cares about this small detail, everyone is listening attentively: "Xing Chen Extinguished, the world is dark. There is no light, and we cannot find our way home... Passers-by who can hear this voice, this signal, if you can hear it, please tell Mrs. Micro, we keep our promise and stick to this place."

"Thousands of years have passed. The guardians of the Great Unified Information Base and their descendants are still in their posts and will be buried here forever."

I originally planned to write 8000 words, but I deleted it, deleted it, changed it, and finally decided to discard it in the second half...

It's the middle of the month, ask for a monthly pass.
