Chapter 63 Xi’s Divine Realm
Chapter 63:
The second floor of Xi’s God’s Domain, in Xi’s palace.
The exquisite palace is brightly lit, even late at night, it is as bright as day at noon. The sun is high in the sky, and the radiance of the sun shines on every part of the palace, giving the servants here a sense of warmth that they are enveloped by the light. Living here, as long as you open your eyes, you can see the sunlight as real. Light beams falling down.
But Xi's palace was very quiet. In the room, a man was sitting on a chair, looking at a document on the table. His white hair exuded a pearl-like luster. Xi's seats and tables were always brighter than ordinary ones. One size up from the National People's Congress, he was too tall and his body shape was even more terrifying. However, due to his perfect proportions, this body type brought more beauty than fear.
Xi is always busy - I don't know where he gets so much to do. Even his subordinates don’t know exactly what the Rizhu is doing. They are not Xi’s messengers, and they are not even qualified to live in this palace. If they want to see Xi, to some extent It is the same as meeting the Pillar God, even more difficult.
A long time ago, Xi's reputation was so bad that rumors even claimed that he was not the new god of the future, but the Destroyer destined to destroy everything. In addition, Xina accidentally killed some people, well, not many, but sent most of the nobles on the second floor to the gallows to be hanged. The corpses hanging on the gallows died before they even had time to cool down. It had to be replaced with a new one, which greatly increased the workload of the gravekeeper responsible for digging the grave, and he almost fell ill.
This is where the name Tyrant comes from. They described Xi as a lunatic who would come to the door at any time to behead the remaining nobles. People began to fear him. This situation has improved a lot in recent years, and Xi suddenly had He disappeared from public view for a while, and then his behavior suddenly became gentler. Even though he was still so domineering and ruthless to the extreme, he was no longer so fearsome.
When a person who has done all kinds of evil and is notorious suddenly changes in reputation, other people's evaluation of him will improve at a speed visible to the naked eye. Xi just does what he wants to do without saying a word. In the eyes of the outside world, he looks more and more like a new god, and his past extremes have become excusable: after all, those nobles were punished by Xi because they wanted to create chaos on the second floor.
From killing nobles for no reason to punishing nobles for doing evil, what Nozomi did did not change much, but suddenly became acceptable. Of course, this was also related to the fact that Nozomi had many followers around him.
Star pillars 1 and 3; moon pillars 3, 5, 11; the great councilors on the second floor. Unknowingly, so many people have gathered around Xi. Of course, there are more people who follow the pillar gods, but Xi Not caring much, the "Corona" organization he created has added many new members and is gradually moving closer to him. Like the stars gathering towards the sun, but for some reason, Xi did not create a sect to seek faith. He just stated that he was the leader of the "Corona" and accepted more hunters and extraordinary people in the process.
This disgusts the people in the Tribunal. If He accepts believers, they can also accuse him of having bad intentions on the grounds that He does not respect the Pillar God. Even though it is known to everyone that He can become a new god, he does not He did not establish a church in the name of a sect, but instead created an organization. As the leader of Sun Corona, Xi did not even ask anyone to believe in him. The Inquisition sneaked into it with a distrustful attitude, thinking that Xi must be secretly accepting faith. After entering, the priests who entered the corona organization dealt with nearly a dozen pollutants in three days. They were either on the way to deal with monsters or were being attacked.
The priest, who had eaten only two meals in three days, began to look blank. When the people from the Corona Organization said to the civilians: We don't need your gratitude, this is our mission, we are only acting to clean up pollutants, and it is the hunter's duty to protect civilians, the priest's eyes became completely horrified.
What such an organization that does not require belief, does not accept believers, and even really operates simply to clean up pollutants, means to civilians, only those whose lives are threatened by monsters, and who are even unable to sleep in their dreams, know what it means. The hunters in the corona are basically homeless extraordinary beings. Xi said to them, since you have no way to go, then come here to help the civilians.
So the hunters came. If Xi said that he wanted them to join Sun Crown to help Xi become a god, then they might not even look at him, but Xi really just provided them with a place to stay, and then Tell them: There is more and more filth in the tower, and civilians are suffering. I will provide you with compensation, and you will help me remove the pollutants.
Then, after hesitation, those extraordinary people chose to join Sun Corona. In fact, they don't know what they are going to do. They have nowhere to go, so it doesn't matter where they stay.
But they soon discovered that staying here was much better than going to the church. Hope did not require their faith. They killed pollutants to perform their tasks. When they hunted monsters and saw the grateful eyes of others, the hunters In a trance, he seemed to see his past self.
Corona's organization is getting bigger and bigger, and the church sees it, but there is no way to punish them in the name of blasphemy, because Xi is not their god. The symbol of the corona was not a simple sun, but a cicada wrapped by the sun. This made the hunters look a little confused, but because Xi did not give any explanation, they could only accept it.
A hoarse voice suddenly sounded in the room. It was the ancestor who was born and stretched from Xi's shadow and turned into a ferocious giant deer. It looked at Xi in front of him and said, "What's the point of doing this?"
Bai Bai After a pause in the man's writing movement, he slowly raised his face. At that moment, Xi's eyes were more dazzling than the sunlight in the room, and more frightening.
"You are a little too active, ancestor." Xi said: "You are only useful to me, not that I need you."
He lowered his head and continued to write, his voice always steady: "If you really want to die so much, then I don't recommend crushing your core. After all, even your fragments are enough for me."
Xi's voice was very calm, as if it was just stating a fact, but this tone was better than those. The threat was even more terrifying. The ancestor looked at him and continued: "Even if you start cultivating your church now, it is already too late. What's more, you don't absorb the faith of believers."
The ancestor said: "As the future Pillar God, you You actually refuse to accept faith. How can you defeat the Old Pillar God? He has accumulated an unknown amount of faith over the years. "
Xi said, "I don't need faith."
The ancestor's eyes instantly became suspicious. It rose up and became a little dangerous. It followed Xi in order to avenge the old pillar god, but Xi's power could not defeat the Trial Center no matter how hard he looked. However, Xi himself chose not to absorb any faith at this time, regardless of No matter how you look at it, this looks like you are seeking death. If Xi chooses to give up halfway, how should it take revenge on the Pillar God?
From the day it was born, its brothers, sisters, and its tribe have been roaring and falling into madness, just to kill the Pillar God with their own hands and drink their blood.
It was taken out of its own domain and sealed by Xi. Now it can no longer expand its domain. The ancestor became a little impatient, and the calmness in his eyes was slowly overwhelmed by the innate anger. This is the essence of pollutants, anxious, Angry, strange, and transformed by misfortune, they themselves are extremely twisted existences. In most cases, rather than saying that they are rational, they are just monsters that can think.
If you are facing a saint, then you will have no objection to whatever the other person is, but Xi...
Xi slowly put down the pen in his hand and said: "That is not my church. I founded it not for faith."
" But if I do this, he will definitely praise me.”
Xi didn't seem to be talking to Yi Yi, and her eyes were slightly blank. It seemed that because he was thinking of someone, the smile on his lips became gentler, with a real gentleness. But the next second, the smile was broken by the ancestor:
"If you are not acting to kill the Pillar God." Julu made a deep voice: "Then you are seeking your own death."
"You are not such a fool. , between you and the Pillar God, only one is destined to survive." The dark giant deer walked in the room, with clusters of heads hanging on its giant horns: "So, what exactly do you want to do?"
Xi folded his hands. , sat there and looked at the ancestor calmly: "It seems that you are not completely blinded by hatred."
Julu stared at the person in front of him. After a moment, Xi lowered his head and wrote the last few words, his eyes Picking up the letter tenderly, as if reading a love letter to a lover. He wrote down everything that happened when he met Shu Mo a few days ago and put it away carefully. Then, Xi stood up and raised his silver-gloved hand. The tyrant suddenly appeared in his hand. The man lightly knocked on the ground, and a gold-embedded door rose in front of him. The warm light seems to lead to another world.
Xi walked into it, while the ancestor was left outside. He hesitated for a moment before walking in. It knew that Xi could easily crush it to death regardless of whether it entered or not, so it didn't matter where it went after.
But when he walked into the door, he felt an indescribable warmth. Looking at the world full of light and a sun hanging in the sky, the ancestor was shocked, and then indescribable shock filled his eyes.
Next to the sun, there is the moon and stars embedded next to him, emitting light and heat. But whether it is the silver moon or the stars, next to the sun, they are just foils for each other. The eyes of the ancestor are indescribable. Horrified, it looked at everything around it and finally realized something:
"This...is your divine domain?!"
"You haven't become a pillar god yet, why do you have a divine domain?"
What's more, this divine domain seems so complete. Being so stable, the ancestors had the illusion that their world view had been completely overturned. Even if Rizhu Yi was destined to be a new student in the future, it would be impossible for Nozomi to become a pillar god without obtaining the divine source.
"Who said you have to become a pillar god to own the divine domain." Xi stood in front of it and said softly: "Becoming a pillar god is the result, not the cause."
"This."
After hearing Xi's words, the ancestor's mind suddenly A thought appeared, and that thought made him feel frightened for a moment. But the idea was so clear, Xi stood in front of it. At this moment, the ancestor hesitated for a moment, and then took the initiative to kneel in front of him to express his obedience. It did not need to question it anymore. The Pillar God has not He didn't know who he was going to face.
In the temple under the sun, a small sun is floating in the sky. There are two thrones placed on the high platform. Xi is sitting on the larger throne, and the other smaller throne is on his right side. It's as if the person sitting there should be slightly shorter than Hiki, but other than that, there's nothing else here.
The ancestor knew that after witnessing all this, it could only obey the other party and be annihilated. But at this moment, the ancestor had no intention of resisting, because... the person who could make it take revenge on the Pillar God was him. in front of.
"You are useful to me." Xi said, "So I allow you to follow me."
"But you must show sincerity." Xi sat there, his face blurred by the sunlight. From beginning to end, his character never changed. , there is not even the figure of the ancestor in the man's eyes. He looks at the ancestor, more like looking at a tool: "Give me your life core."
This is a command, not a question. The ancestor stood below and looked at him: "Will you kill the Pillar God?"
Xi did not answer it, but the ancestor answered himself, or in other words, it was saying this to his own people: "No , between you and the Pillar God, only one winner can survive in the true sense."
It lowered its head, and a gap opened on the top of its head. In the next moment, a dark hand slowly lifted the giant deer's head. After tearing it open, it held a broken communicator in its hand. The last remaining communication on it was a wave of phone calls that could never be connected.
This seemingly ordinary, even crude thing is the core of the fifth-level pollutant - the ancestor. He raised his hand slightly, and the communicator in his hand flew towards Xi, turning into a dark crystal in front of him. .
"You stay well in my divine domain." Xi said, "When I need you, I will call you."
"I will obey your orders." The ancestor lowered his head to him, expressing his submission. Xi ignored it. He turned around and walked into the temple behind him. There were many things placed in the center of the temple.
If Weiss were standing here, he would probably be stunned, because he can recognize that the beautiful crystal-like gems floating up and down placed in the container are the source of the star pillars he obtained, and they occasionally emit moonlight. The origin stone with a similar color is even the origin of the moon pillar, while the larger origin stone that exudes a warm luster belongs to the sun pillar.
As long as one can get one of them and be recognized by the source, then anyone can directly become a pillar. Such a precious treasure is placed here haphazardly, and it is not even the most conspicuous core in the hall.
Behind them, the crystal floating in the air, constantly emitting terrifying fluctuations, made a strange buzzing sound when Xi approached it. It gave people a very strange feeling, as if it was just a crystal, but also seemed... to be the whole world. core.
The scene that floats out around it as it rotates seems to be the sum total of a world, reflecting everything in the world. After Xi glanced at it quietly, the man reached out, took out the letter from his arms, and placed it on the table nearby. On that table, there was a thick stack of letters.
In the hall of the "Corona" organization, the members of the Corona are walking back and forth. They don't wear the same clothes, and they don't need to believe in anyone. The only thing they have in common is the ring on their finger, and that The pattern of the ring is a sun imprisoning a cicada.
At the beginning, this organization was unknown and not even trusted. However, after the members of the Corona really began to accept entrustments and deal with the disasters caused by monsters, the civilians' trust in them skyrocketed, and even recently In recent years, instead of going to the Trial House, they are more willing to come to Sun Mian for help and issue commissions. After all, the prerequisite for going to the Trial House is that you have to prove your pious belief in the Pillar God, while Sun Mian only needs to pay the bounty.
Of course, as believers of the Pillar God, they are more willing to go to the Trial House. The fundamental reason for this situation is because the people in the tower begin to question their beliefs. After all, you can't ask them to not forget to offer sacrifices to God when their lives are threatened. Of course, there are many such people, but they usually die faster.
In this ordinary and peaceful afternoon, the Henia family's hovercar parked outside the lobby of the Corona. Then, a middle-aged man with black hair walked into the door and issued a commission in the Corona:
[My family I have suffered inexplicable misfortune recently. Some monsters have affected our lives, causing my dear child to be threatened. I hope that there are hunters who can help us clean up the anomalies around us.
I will provide you with a reward that satisfies you. 】
The member at the front desk responsible for issuing commissions looked at the commission in his hand and frowned slightly.
"Is there anything wrong?" The members of the Henia family behaved very politely without any arrogance. This may have something to do with the sun pillar logo hanging at the top of the hall.
"According to the information you provided, the level of disaster you encountered should have reached level A." The member explained: "This is a danger that can only be caused by level four to level five pollutants. Our hunters can solve these threats. But..."
"Is the reward not enough?"
he said.
"No," the member shook his head: "Actually, the remuneration you provided has exceeded the budget, but the hunters who can solve this level of contaminants have basically been responsible for their respective commissions, and the rest, It may not be enough to meet your standards. "
After all, there are only a few powerful hunters, but there are more and more pollutants in the tower.
The front desk looked at the client, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "If you want, you can upgrade your trust to S level. At this level, you can delegate the trust to more powerful hunters, but those hunters are just I can't guarantee that they will be interested in your commission because they are named in the 'Coron'."
The confidant of the Henia family pondered. He had already heard what the other party meant, and the man even guessed what the powerful hunter the other party was talking about was. Man, in fact, he just wanted to find those hunters, but he could never find the opportunity.
"You mean... even the Seven Sins will have their names in the Sun Crown?"
"That's right." The front desk gave a slight smile. He looked at the confidants in front of him and continued: "Although the Seven Sins' whereabouts are unknown, their whereabouts are unknown. You will also accept the commission, right?"
The confidant looked at the person in front of him and finally nodded. He turned around, got back on the carriage, and returned to the Henia family's manor. The closer he got, the temperature around him suddenly became colder. Even if he looked at it from a distance, it seemed as if there were floating clouds above the manor. Under a thick layer of dark clouds, entering here is like entering another world. However, in this gradually decaying manor, the rose flower field in the backyard is blooming more and more vigorously, and it is delicate and beautiful, as if it has absorbed enough nutrients. Exudes a magnificent and rich floral fragrance.
The more his confidant watched, the heavier his heart became. He returned to the manor and saw that even though his loyal master had no expression on his face, the look in his eyes became darker day by day.
He came to the head of the family and told him the good news in recent days:
"Master, I have found out some information."
The man sitting on the desk has pure black hair, his eyes are gloomy, and his face is handsome. , pale complexion: "Say."
"The rumored seven sins - traces of greed."
A joyful light flashed in the eyes of the head of the Henia family. Of course he knew what the seven sins meant. If we talk about the monsters and ferocious beasts that are plaguing them now. , then the Seven Sins are the more terrifying monsters that hunt these beasts.
That's right, in the eyes of others, the Seven Sins are like a different kind of pollutant, which is completely beyond the scope of ordinary hunters.
"Where is he?"
the head of the Henia family asked.
"He is...in the laboratory, and has his name on the Sun Crown. The people in the Sun Crown said that the Seven Sins have not accepted a commission for a long time, but the other party likes to hunt terrifying and ferocious monsters the most." The confidant said, thinking of the information he knew, his face His expression froze for a moment: "The other party has hunted a lot of level five pollutants, he will definitely be able to solve our problem."
The head of the Henia family took the information in his hand, and his confidants still had room to speak in front of him, and he continued Said: "But we can't guarantee that he will accept our commission."
What's more, the confidants looked at the dark clouds above the manor, and their time was running out.
"A hideous and terrifying monster? The scarier and more terrifying the monster, the more interesting it is." The head of the Henia family looked at the information in his hand, and then laughed: "Then he will be satisfied." "The
monster we encountered , will definitely satisfy the Seven Sins..."
After hearing his words, a vague giant hand stretched out from the dark clouds above the manor, and then gradually approached the manor below, and a message came from it. There were strange murmurs and roars, like the sword of Damocles hanging in the sky, extending downward little by little until the moment it fell completely.
Shu Mo walked in the laboratory and scratched his head.
"Is age really that important?"
Shu Mo thought. He never said he minded.
There were fierce footsteps in the corridor, and they were approaching Shu Mo. The black-haired young man suddenly raised his face and saw the former experimenter appearing in front of him. Looking at her eager expression, Shu Mo Mo was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"Shu Mo, cough, Shu Mo—" She almost choked on her own saliva because she was in such a hurry.
"Lord Greedy, Lord Greedy, he's awake..."
Looking at her, Shu Mo's eyes
lit up and he said, "Is Greedy awake?" Shu Mo felt faintly excited. The experimenter glanced at him and then pulled him. He ran towards the ward and said,
"Shu Mo, something bad has happened. Greed has gone crazy!"
Shu Mo:?
Experimenter: "You have to hurry up and stop him. If you don't go, he will tear down the ward!"
"Wait, what are you talking about?" Shu Mo looked confused, and the experimenter almost ran away in a hurry. Seeing that Shu Mo was walking slowly, he was almost dragging his shoes, pulling the young man towards the ward.
