Volume 14: The Universe at 23 Degrees Celsius Chapter 16 Ashura (Part 2)
Asura, as soon as you hear it, you can tell that this name is completely out of tune with the ordinary worldview.
In fact, Li Lin and related players had explored it a long time ago and found that there are indeed oriental names and related powers in this world. Just like the ability of the Onmyoji he brought out at the beginning, they have corresponding heritage and creatures.
However, as the adventure gradually unfolds, all players find that Eastern things are not so much native to this world as they are forced in, with a kind of abnormal state of separation. Because these things just appear there abruptly, and then there is no past or future, they just appear somewhere inexplicably one day, and then pass down related heritage and clues.
Even the Lord of Huangquan that Li Lin found was already one of the top Eastern characters. But even if you ask the Lord of Huangquan - Li Lin likes to tease NPCs when he has nothing to do in the Kingdom of God - she can't explain what's going on. Relatively speaking, she was just inexplicably pulled out of Huangquan and had all kinds of thoughts. But she didn't go out for a long time until she was old, and she didn't know what was going on outside. All kinds of messy settings and surrounding branches even make people feel that the Eastern system is a broken glass ball, scattered in every corner of the universe.
Moreover, what the Eastern School pursues is completely different from that of the University or Holy Light. Compared with the University and Holy Light, which are close seeking truth from facts, the Eastern School is more metaphysical. They pursue various feelings and understandings, but in stark contrast to this side, the levels of power are clearly divided.
When working in the history department, Li Lin wanted to take this strange phenomenon as his own research topic several times, but on the one hand, there was really nothing to study about this topic, and there was nothing in common between the two. On the other hand, the professor thought that this might be related to some cosmic wonder, so he just let it go. But now Li Lin has a hunch that he might touch upon some advanced plots in advance, just like he did when he started the Pale Expedition.
...Although he still couldn't remember where he had heard the name Ashura.
"We found some strange documents in that world."
Reinhardt, who considered himself a savior, was obviously acting like a protagonist in a novel, throwing out all kinds of secret information as if it were free.
"It shows that a long time ago, we were doing our utmost to fight against an unspeakable terrorist force. At that time, there was no alliance claiming to be justice and freedom, nor was there a united federation like ours. There was only one force and a natural disaster from another universe."
"We tried our best, and even divided our forces to fight against that disaster in order to maximize the efficiency of our internal personnel. This behavior was obviously effective. We finally defeated the unspeakable terror and won the victory. The fact that most of the universe is now our territory shows that after we won that battle, we have already gained peace and tranquility. Although there is an obstruction from the Free Alliance, our relationship is not in conflict."
"However, I found another fact in the documents... Yes, the disaster has never been completely defeated. They were just sealed. And this seal is the blood-red world. Our ancestors have dedicated their lives and strength in that world. They covered the mark with blood and souls, so that those horrible monsters will no longer appear in this world."
"oh."
Keep talking, I'm listening.
Looking at Reinhardt who began to tell the story in a vivid manner, Li Lin said "oh" and continued to drink tea waiting for his brilliant speech.
And Bo Xun didn't even look at them, just eating a melon in his left hand and a melon in his right hand. However, Reinhardt, who had obviously entered the protagonist's state, did not feel that this was some kind of contempt, but instead felt that the two people in front of him were cautious and commendable. Who would believe the words of someone who just came up and talked nonsense about the ancient century?
As the saying goes, when the protagonist gets angry, no one can say anything. Reinhardt has been immersed in the delusion that he is the savior who can do whatever he wants. He holds his career in his left hand and his family in his right hand. Oh, his left hand holds a glass of wine, and his right hand makes an OK sign. He looks at the two people eating melons and drinking tea with a mysterious look. There is a terrifying light in his eyes - the third stage of magic awakening comes with a buff - he looks at the two people eating melons and drinking tea with a smile.
"I guess they won't believe my words . After all, you two are both powerful warriors who have awakened to the second stage of magic power, and they won't be persuaded by a few words from me. But what I want to say is, what do you think of this?"
Reinhardt smiled mysteriously, grabbed the void, and forcibly pulled out a pale humanoid creature from his own space.
Bo Xun, who was eating a melon, was startled by the sudden appearance of the thing and the melon in his hand fell to the ground. Li Lin looked at the slightly familiar pattern and appearance and fell into deep thought.
The humanoid creature looked like some kind of alien, but from the sense of magic, it was clear that it was definitely not an ordinary magic structure. It was a kind of seemingly familiar but strange feeling. And from the black cracks all over the pale humanoid creature, it looked a little familiar...
"……ah!"
Isn't this the unlucky player? !
Looking at the slightly familiar patterns, Li Lin suddenly clapped his hands and remembered where he had heard the name Asura.
System log! He killed a legitimate heir of Asura power! Oh, who was that called? Which union was he from? Let me think about it.
Li Lin once again fell into deep thought, and in Reinhard's eyes it was clearly evidence of his confusion.
"I guess you two don't know yet?"
The protagonist grinned, revealed an arrogant look, and shouted sternly:
"This Ashura is actually a creature from another universe! They came here to destroy our universe! And we have to seal these monsters up again to prevent the nightmares of those psychics from becoming reality!"
