Chapter 103 "Destruction is not the only way."
Chapter 103 "Destruction is not the only thing that can do it."
Xi's eyes fell on Gaia and looked at it briefly. After a moment, the man turned back and said with a smile: "Why should I do this?"
The man looked at her head. The long black hair hangs down behind him, and the ends of the hair are automatically entangled without wind, making a hoarse voice. He seems to be the incarnation of the abyss, gentle and elegant, with long and narrow eyes, a gentle temperament, and a smile as sharp as a knife.
"Shu Mo." He raised his hand and stroked Shu Mo's chin: "You have so many people to save. Focus on other people, why don't you come and save me?"
He said this with a smile on his face. But the smile on his face slowly dissipated, and his elegant aura spread forward like smoke, completely revealing the stern look hidden underneath. At this moment, his appearance was completely opposite to that of Xi.
Shu Mo's eyes flickered.
He pressed Xi's hand, suddenly raised his face, and kissed him.
Chirp.
Xi blinked slowly, countless pupils shattered in his eyes, and then grew out one by one. In each eyeball and pupil, the appearance of the young man in front of him was reflected, and there was nothing else. Other things.
Like a prison, and like bubbles, the moment they bloomed just to reflect Shu Mo's appearance, Xi rolled her eyes and said, "You think this can..."
"Bah."
Shu Mo. Mo kissed him again.
The black-haired young man didn't say anything, but just kissed the side of Xi's face. His breath came closer, and it was a clean, pure warm breath. It wasn't too sweet, but it made people want to get closer.
Xi opened her mouth, but her face was still cold: "Gaia is my partner, the father of the earth."
The man said, showing a slight smile and looking at Shu Mo.
The meaning of this sentence went through Shu Mo's mind, and it was automatically translated into: More money is required.
Shu Mo's eyes flashed, and he came forward and kissed Xi's lips. Xi took his lips in her mouth with satisfaction and licked them with her tongue.
After the check was written, Xi's movements immediately became much more agile. Gaia looked at him coldly, with only indifference in her heart. As a partner, Xi had outstanding abilities and a cold personality. She also regarded other living beings as dead. Gaia Ya originally thought he was reliable, but he didn't expect that Xi's behavior would change immediately after he met his wife. It was simply ridiculous.
"Father...cough!" At this moment, the young man shouted in his arms. The other person's breathing was shallow, like a ball of crystal that would break in the next second, and his amber eyes were full of tears. Shui Wu: "It hurts..."
Gaia lowered her head in an instant and touched his cheek. The boy leaned on his shoulder with attachment, feeling bursts of cramping pain in his abdomen. Even though Gaia rescued him, he still couldn't. Staying in the Life Factory for so long still left an indelible impact on the Son of Gaia. There would always be severe pain in his abdomen, as if some filth had condensed in it. Every once in a while, Gaia had to Tear open his belly again and insert the hair into it, and then remove the filthy crystals from the other party's body. Otherwise, those crystals will turn into eggs one after another after a period of time, and then crawl out of his body.
The body of the Son of Gaia has almost become a breeding ground for pollutants, and because he is connected to Gaia, in fact, all the dirt in his body comes from Gaia. As soon as Gaia's finger fell on the Son of Gaia, Feeling that the filthy crystals inside were making vague screams, Aris, the son of Gaia, turned paler and paler. Gaia was a little panicked at that moment, and the next second, he was grabbed by Xi's giant hand in the air.
The boy in his arms also fell to the ground. Shu Mo walked to his side, ignoring Gaia who seemed to be about to fall into rage beside him. He stretched out his hand and touched the other man's cheek.
As Shu Mo's fingers crossed, a little bit of pure white power overflowed from his body, purifying the filth in the other person's body. Shu Mo frowned slightly and looked at the young man with a frightened look, because Shu Mo discovered that just The filth crystals contained in his body are larger than the backlog of the Life Factory branch.
Where does all this filth come from?
The corners of Shu Mo's eyes twitched. The boy with black blood on his lips closed his eyes. Suddenly he opened his eyes and looked at Shu Mo. His expression softened. The way he looked at Shu Mo was as if he was looking at him. An angel flew down from the sky and was still glowing.
"Your wings are so beautiful." His words made Shu Mo pause. Aris had no other thoughts in his heart. He was just praising Shu Mo: "Thank you, my stomach doesn't hurt anymore."
He said with difficulty As he spoke, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. Aris was not a pollutant, but he was no longer a human being. He was originally just an ordinary herdsman, but after accidentally coming into contact with Gaia, he accepted it. With the blessing of the other party, he became the son of Gaia.
Aris, who became the son of Gaia, was very confused, but after learning that Gaia was the father of the earth, he seemed a little hesitant. After a long time, he asked the other party: If Gaia is the incarnation of the earth, then when he is herding sheep, is he... Indirectly harmed Gaia?
Gaia: "..."
"No." At that time, Gaia was still a very gentle incarnation of the earth, although she was cold and unwilling to contact the world: "The sheep just walked, lived, and ate some turf, but You humans are the ones who are really hurting this land."
"But the ground of the tower will gradually recover, and no matter what you do, it will only hurt your own environment."
"Unless what you do, There is something wrong with the origin of the tower, otherwise I would not be injured," Gaia explained.
Aris seemed to understand something, but he was just a herdsman after all, and he didn't understand what Gaia said at all. It was similar to what it would mean if something went wrong with him one day, and the ground veins of the tower would completely collapse. The man just After knowing that he had almost an endless lifespan of immortality, he said happily: "Then I can keep raising sheep!"
"I can keep raising sheep, and the sheep will give birth to lambs, and the lambs will grow up. In this way, , I can sell a lot of sheep, how much will it cost?"
Gaia: "..."
After that, Aris stayed with Gaia to accompany him, and only he could see Gaia, the two of them. Living a peaceful life on the grassland, until one day, the hunters from the Life Factory came with weapons. They couldn't see Gaia, so they captured Aris and cut down the forest. After that, the originally gentle man Gaia was becoming distorted and deformed day by day. By the time it realized that it had been eroded by filth, the man's heart no longer had any tenderness towards human beings, only the desire to destroy everything was left.
Aris gritted his teeth and vomited out large tracts of crystals. He curled up on the ground, struggling in pain. Gaia in the distance almost went crazy when she saw this scene, but after a moment, the boy slowly recovered. His body grew slowly, changing from a boy to a young man. He raised his body and opened his eyes slightly: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"Thank you, doctor."
Aris said in surprise. The patient himself was in good condition, but The situation of the patient's family members was not good. Shu Mo slowly retracted his hand. This time the medical process made him realize one thing: sometimes, the uncooperation of the family members is the biggest obstacle in the medical practice.
"There are a lot of things in my stomach," Aris said. "I don't know where those things come from, but I feel that these things come from very high places."
"Upper level?" Shu Mo was stunned for a moment. This is already the second floor, and the filth comes from a higher level, isn't that... the residence of the gods?
"Father should know more." Aris saw Shu Mo's look and realized that this matter seemed important. He slowly got up from the ground, looked up and then looked at him again, and then said hesitantly. : "Doctor, I'm much better."
"Can you...put my father down?"
Shu Mo raised his face, looked at Gaia hanging in the sky, and said, "It's okay, it's cool up there, cover up. " Ya may have been on the ground for a long time, so he wanted to go up and take a rest."
Aris was stunned.
is that so?
Father Earth is tired of being on the ground, so he chooses to hang upside down and go to heaven to sober up?
Shu Mo didn't really want to hang Gaia in the sky. After a while, he looked at the time and said, "Xi, put him down."
The man with black hair glanced at him. In the air, the giant hand holding Gaia was finally released, and the man fell to the ground in an instant. He didn't look very embarrassed, but his face was as cold as ice. Aris saw this scene and trotted over, and Gaia immediately left. Go to his side and hold his hand, like a dragon protecting its treasure.
"Father, I feel much better." Aris showed him his physical condition. Seeing this scene, Gaia's expression finally got better. His eyes when looking at Shu Mo were still cold, but at least there was some warmth. .
"Thank you." Gaia picked up Aris and walked back, looking at Xi and Shu Mo warily, as if looking at two traffickers who abducted children. Aris, who had now turned into a young man, was still held by him. After he walked far away, he paused. The man paused, his hair surging like jellyfish tentacles, and finally condensed into a pure white crystal in front of him.
The man stretched out his hand and put the crystal in front of Shu Mo. It was a big piece, but there was nothing in front of Xi. Shu Mo looked at the pure white earth crystal, and then looked at Xi Hou. Shu Mo stretched out his hand. , I want to give half to Xi.
"The crystallization of the earth is a very interesting thing." Xi said: "I don't need this. You can try to observe everything happening in the tower through the earth's veins."
"During the period of being trapped, I discovered "Some very interesting things happened." Gaia said, "Your Pillar God, the so-called God of the Tower, seems to have experienced something strange."
After hearing his words, Shu Mo reached out and touched it tentatively. When he arrived at this crystal, at that moment, he seemed to turn into the earth and watched everything that happened in the tower. Whether it was the fourth floor, the second floor, or the higher, more distant divine residence, he seemed to be able to observe from a distance. , with an unobstructed view.
He closed his eyes, and his spirit continued to rise. Finally, the black-haired young man stopped in front of a dark screen of light, and a strong aura of death and corruption poured out from it. Shu Mo hesitated for a moment, and then tried to touch there. , the next second, countless figures stacked on top of each other, screaming and asking for help, came into his eyes. The corpses on the ground, the mountains of corpses stacked high, and the huge, upright figure sitting on the corpses To the...god in the crown.
'My lord, please forgive me... my lord! '
The prayers of believers and the voices of divine messengers fell into His ears, but they could not cause any waves. The man's long golden hair had long been eroded by filth. He held his chin with one hand, looked at the believers in front of him, and called He stepped forward, but when the fanatical believer walked in front of him, he stretched out his hand and tore the other person's body apart.
The sound of bloody flesh came, and the entire temple had been completely eroded, but the Pillar God did not even do it for punishment or venting, but just for fun.
He bared his teeth and smiled happily.
From His shadow, a huge and ferocious monster emerged. The monster had a face exactly like His, but there was no clarity in its eyes, only an almost insane madness.
"!"
Shu Mo suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Xi in front of him, then slowly bent down and vomited as if he couldn't bear it.
"Is the Pillar God crazy?!"
Shu Mo could hardly imagine what happened in the Divine Residence to turn it into such a hellish scene. He even suspected that it had become a hell. In addition to the human beings who were eroded by filth, There are no living creatures anymore, and those people are not even considered pollutants, just a group of living dead.
The people in the Trial House didn’t know about this, or even when the Pillar God became like this. The Pillar God is supreme, and no one can easily meet Him, so when the people in the Trial House kneel on the temple, praying devoutly every day. When they offered their faith to God, they heard vague and indecipherable murmurs in their ears. They only thought that it was an oracle, and they did not think about what the "oracle" they heard was.
When they prayed to the Pillar God and received the oracle, the people in the Tribunal had no idea that the god they believed in had gone crazy a long time ago.
And the people in the Tribunal have been serving this mad god, clearing obstacles for Him and offering their faith.
They never thought that the oracle coming to their ears was actually just the gibbering coming from the mouth of the mad god.
When Shu Mo thought of this, his face was covered with cold sweat. He explained this matter to Xi. After Xi listened, her expression did not change at all: "So that's it."
"The father of the earth in the tower, the sun pillar, the moon pillar, and the star pillar, have all been eroded by filth." Said: "As a pillar god, how could he be intact?"
But Gaia had never told him about this. Thinking of this, Xi looked at Gaia. The man with a blurry face was just holding his child. , said: "He is crazy, so what?"
"Anyway, the tower is about to be destroyed by you, what does the life and death of the Pillar God have to do with me?"
Gaia said, he was being killed by the people from the Life Factory. When he was trapped, he had already noticed this and realized that the pillar god's madness would lead to more destruction.
But so what?
Gaia's face squirmed, and a dark and ferocious color flashed past: "When the tower was first built, Purna promised everyone that he would bring everyone a Garden of Eden."
However, this was the man who said this. , but despite the opposition of other companions, he insisted on ascending to the throne of God.
But now, he has been corrupted by filth, Purna has gone crazy, and the other pillar gods are missing. Purna's former companions were heartbroken by him and have refused to see him since then. The formation sheets connecting the towers are... Aspectally shielded, all pillar gods only live in their own towers and will never contact each other again.
interesting.
Gaia thought so, and left with her favorite child in her arms. From the beginning to the end, even though he was corrupted by filth, the only thing he cared about was his favorite child.
Son of Gaia is not a descendant of Gaia, but a nickname. Anyone blessed by Gaia is a descendant of Gaia, but only his most beloved children are given eternal life. As for the other Gaias, they are the descendants of Gaia. The son of Gaia did not even appear in Gaia's mind for a moment.
Looking at Gaia's back, Shu Mo wanted to help her purify the filth, but Xi turned sideways and stopped him. The man didn't speak, but Shu Mo stopped. What's more, he noticed that Gaia seemed to Don't care if you are being eroded.
In fact, after being eroded by filth and experiencing mental changes, Gaia did not seem to have distorted herself, but rather seemed to have... broken away from some kind of bondage and released her true nature.
Like after being diagnosed with mental illness.
The spirit became more cheerful.
Looking at the backs of the father and son, Shu Mo turned around and looked at Xi and said, "Let's go."
Xi held his hand and the two of them walked towards the direction of the airship. Nadu and Maya were still there. Busy with the final work, Shu Mo looked at the exquisite airship below, and his eyes lit up for a moment.
"I used to want to know what was outside the tower." Shu Mo whispered. He had read a lot of information and fantasized about many things. He thought about traveling around the world in an airship in a tower. He can travel around the tower, even though he has a congenital leg problem in his right leg, he can travel around the tower as much as he wants.
So when he was working as a laboratory in a lower-level laboratory, even though he had a generous salary and did extremely hard work, he lived in the smallest house and spent all his money on this illusory dream.
And now, his dream has come true.
Not only that, he can even live a peaceful life like an ordinary employee, living in a safe world and living everything he dreams of.
Shu Mo turned his face and looked at the darkness beside him. Xi stood in it and looked at him. The man stretched out his hand and touched his face. His movements were full of love: "As long as you like..."
"Here ." How is your life?" Xi said, "I can give you everything you want..."
Shu Mo blinked, just looked at him with a smile, and kissed his face.
"When everything is over, I will also make you a gift."
"I'm looking forward to it."
Xi said this, and the two kissed each other, feeling that the whole world was warm.
Shu Mo held Xi's hand and wandered around the city without any purpose, just going on dates as if they had nothing to do. They walked to a children's toy shop and watched a pair of parents bringing their toys. Shu Mo and Xi didn't feel anything when their children bought things. They had no love from their parents, and had even been hated by their relatives since birth. Mrs. Bella sincerely wanted to kill Xi.
Xi looked at the parents buying toys for their children and suddenly said:
"Before I was born, as an embryo, I once heard Bella say that she wanted to kill me with her own hands."
Shu Mo listened. Hearing his words, he suddenly froze: "Wait, embryo?"
"Well," Xi looked at him, seemingly confused: "Before I was born, I could already see everything in the world and master the most important things. "Basic power."
"It's because of this that she doesn't dare to take action, because once she does, I will tear open her belly and crawl out,"
Xi said in an understatement . It was as if everyone in the world should be born like this. Shu Mo was a little dumbfounded. To him, Xi's words sounded like he was saying:
Before I was born, I had already taught myself twelve countries. language, and have mastered all the formulas in the Mathematical Olympiad, you should be able to do it, right?
"She didn't dare to kill me, so she could only hate me." Xi said softly: "Fortunately, I have you, Shu Mo."
The man looked at him with a sticky look, which seemed a bit familiar: "If it weren't for you, I would He might have gone crazy."
"You're so kind." Xi came over and kissed Shu Mo's eyes, her movements full of love. Xi kept saying that Shu Mo saved him. Shu Mo didn't know what happened and asked, "You said I saved you, but..."
Shu Mo hesitated for a moment: "You are over a hundred this year... My It means you are older than me."
Xi's eyes became a little dangerous the moment he mentioned his age. Shu Mo avoided the topic and said instead: "I must not have been born at that time, right?
"You will know later." Xi lowered her eyes: "Time can be tampered with. This is not balance in an absolute sense. What cannot be changed is the past. What is destined to happen will definitely happen, but once fate changes If you expose it, the future will change."
Shu Mo didn't understand what he was talking about at all.
To him, Xi's words sounded like she was talking about the price of truth.
Speaking of which, why did the notebook have to stay with him in the first place?
Shu Mo frowned and thought, but after a moment, he no longer cared about these things. Xi stroked his chin, seeming to be thinking about something: "Speaking of it, Shu Mo."
The man said, "Why did you stop me from killing him?" "Where is Bella?"
"?"
Shu Mo looked at him doubtfully, and Xi looked at him, still confused. Xi and Xi had always had the chance to kill Bella, but Bella had always lived well. Now, the other party even mistakenly thought that Xi had some tolerance for her, but the truth of the matter is: Xi said that Shu Mo stopped him from strangling Bella, so the other party has lived until now.
Even if Xi asked Shu Mo about this matter now, he still had a confused look on his face. Seeing this, the man had no intention of continuing to ask. Bella would die after that, and her end was already doomed. Xi didn't care about it.
The two held hands and continued walking in the city. This place was the kingdom of heaven that Xi had built for Shu Mo. He said, "After I destroy everything, we can always live here."
Xi said softly, "You Here, you will get everything you dream of."
Xi sighed. At this time, the sun was setting and dusk was approaching. The darkness in the distance was slowly eroding forward. In the distance, Shu Mo could still see the pollutants soaking in. They were fighting each other in that darkness, laughing wildly.
Whether they are happy or not is not within the scope of Xi's consideration. The man just absorbs them into his own heaven and then destroys everything else.
Shu Mo looked at this scene and seemed to have seen the scene in Xi's dream. He held Xi's hand and said, "Do you have to do this?"
Xi turned around and saw his most beloved black-haired young man and him. Standing high together, those green eyes looked at him tenderly. Shu Mo stepped forward and touched his face with gentle movements.
"Is this the happiness you dream of? Xi."
Xi stretched out her hand and held the black-haired young man's wrist, her eyes never leaving that face, as if Shu Mo would disappear in the blink of an eye: "I think, This is the only choice."
Shu Mo's eyes were hard to distinguish, but he still looked at him. The black-haired young man took a step forward, hugged the person in front of him, and said,
"We will always be together."
"I will always be with you. "Together." Shu Mo repeated these words. Xi seemed to sense something and stretched out her hand to hold his wrist, holding the person in front of her tightly. Shu Mo did not break away from his hand. In front of Xi, Shu Mo Her black hair grew long, and the sound of flapping wings was accompanied by the holy white light. A pure song that made people listen involuntarily and immersed in it slowly came out. Shu Mo stood there, but his whole body exuded an awe-inspiring atmosphere. The brilliance that people dare not look directly at, with him as the center, a pure white light curtain slowly spreads, gradually eroding the dark sky.
"So, it's time for you to wake up, Xi."
Shu Mo said softly.
Xi stared at him expressionlessly, but Shu Mo still smiled and stood in front of him and looked at him:
"I want to give you a truly sweet dream. This is another choice I give you."
Before he Among the increasingly blurry sounds, the holy and melodious singing spread like a pure white light wave. Everything and all existences were purified by this light. The pollutants that were fighting each other looked at this blankly. The natural disasters that eroded everything remained motionless. They were not afraid, but stayed in place, and then knelt down together, as if welcoming their own end, waiting to be purified and redeemed.
Maya lay on the table and fell asleep, but Nadu suddenly rushed over and picked him up, shaking the man's body. Maya opened her red eyes, as if to say: "What happened?"
"Idiot!" Nadu said, "Don't sleep, it's dawn!"
"Ah?"
Maya's eyes widened, and then she stood up suddenly, staring at the huge hole that suddenly appeared in the sky. , that holy white light slowly spreads, corroding everything in the world. This scene is simply like the white natural disaster he has seen before, which only exists in allusions.
The natural disaster that purified the entire fifth floor and purified all pollutants in it.
Is he going to die?
Maya stared at this scene blankly, then suddenly took Nadu's hand and kissed it. The red-haired man looked confused. Maya held Nadu's hand and thought, he must die before he dies. enough?
"What the hell are you doing?!"
Nadu wanted to push him away, but was hugged tightly. The pure white natural disaster spread towards them, and all the pollutants seen along the way were swallowed up by it, carrying it with them. The smile was purified into points of light, flying towards the real "heaven".
This is a great purification in the true sense. Even the corona organizations outside the "Kingdom of Heaven" stared blankly at the scene in front of them, feeling terrified.
The next second, this gave everyone a headache, and it seemed as if the heaven where the abyss was located made a dull loud noise. One after another, the hunters and civilians of the Corona Organization were thrown out and fell to the ground. They got up in embarrassment. , and saw the huge experimental site shaking in the air, and then falling to the ground.
The hunters of the corona organization looked at me and I looked at you. After being stunned for a while, they cursed in a low voice and then rushed to the front, lest the pollutants inside them escape.
But in the entire laboratory, there was not even a single pollutant present.
Nothing at all.
The whole world was quiet and peaceful, with countless pure white light spots falling in the sky. As they walked along, they felt the silence around them. It was not until they reached the deepest part of the laboratory and the highest peak of the entire heaven that they suddenly stopped. , lost his breath.
In front of them, a young man with pure white hair and an aura of holiness sat on the ground. His long hair was hanging down, and countless light spots hovered around him, emitting a heartwarming laughter. The whole kingdom of heaven , and even almost all the pollutants in the entire tower turned into these light spots, their souls gathered together, and the filth was completely removed. Some hunters even saw some light spots inflating themselves, like hairs floating in the air. Like a pom-pom, he let out a light laugh.
It was as if I was getting rid of the pain I had been feeling.
But all this is not what attracts the hunter's attention.
They focused their attention on the young man in front of them, fearing that if they breathed a little louder, they would break the dream in front of them and feel overwhelmed.
In front of them, Shu Mo raised his face slightly. Behind him, a pair of layered perfect wings were flapping gently. Shu Mo's back was naked, facing away from everyone, looking at the darkness ahead.
The young man with a crown on his head and cicada wings on his back said:
"Destruction is not the only way, is it?"
