Volume 5: The Cataclysm Chapter 24: The Mystery of Conferred Gods
hidden!
As soon as he heard the name, Marvin finally realized why it sounded so familiar!
The most high-profile of the vampire ancestors!
During his active time, powerful legends often died unexpectedly. Although there was no evidence, people attributed the crime to the ancestor of the blood clan.
This guy is so powerful.
It is said that he once fought with the monarch of the elemental plane of fire, and escaped unscathed!
You know, the four elemental monarchs are the key to protecting the stability of the entire universe.
Their strength is enough to crush most of the main gods. In the entire multiverse, there are no more than ten people who can surpass the four monarchs in strength!
Although Yin failed to defeat the Fire Elemental Lord, it was already a miracle that he survived his rage.
However, it was also because of that battle that he fell into a long sleep.
People speculated that the Fire Elemental Lord left him with wounds that were difficult to heal.
Unexpectedly, the emergence of the Stone of Destiny would revive this vampire who had been sleeping for who knows how many years!
Marvin felt a little nervous.
He originally thought that his opponents were basically the servants of the gods in the heavenly kingdom. The strong men in other planes were about the same level.
But when the God of Rage showed up, he felt a little uneasy.
I didn’t expect that a strong man of Yin’s level would show up!
This was beyond Marvin's expectations.
Originally, with his current strength, if it weren't for the strong man other than hidden factors, he would not be afraid at all.
Now it seems that the situation is not as simple as Marvin imagined.
Yin looks very low-key.
In Marvin's perception, his breath was even a little weak!
God knows how strong he is now!
But there was one thing Marvin was sure of.
Yin definitely hasn't recovered his full strength.
Otherwise, he could just show off his extraordinary strength outside the Tower of Babel.
With the power of an elemental monarch, who dares to compete with him for the Slate of Destiny?
Since he chose to enter the Tower of Babel in a low profile, trying to use his experience advantage to get the Tablet of Destiny before Marvin, it proved that he was not as powerful as Marvin imagined.
At least in Yin's opinion, his own strength has not yet recovered to the point where he can crush all the strong men present in one breath.
Thinking of this, Marvin breathed a sigh of relief.
…
"I didn't expect that the vampires also valued the Slate of Destiny."
Anyway, he had to wait for the third person to pass the first two levels, and Marvin had nothing to do, so he just started chatting with Yin.
This ancestor of the blood clan was not as scary as the legend said; on the contrary, he seemed very easy to talk to.
"I'm not interested in the Slate of Destiny itself." Yin smiled: "Believe it or not."
Marvin nodded, thoughtfully.
You are not interested in the Tablet of Destiny itself, but you sneaked in here. Does that mean you are interested in something in it?
Marvin was not in a hurry, but asked tentatively:
"What is the current attitude of the blood race?"
Yin looked at Marvin: "I can't represent the blood race."
Marvin retorted: "At least they can represent the Dark Party. Those vampires who hate humans, at least they listen to you."
Yin smiled silently and said, "See, this is the scary thing about time."
"When I was alive, I was always a pacifist. I opposed the vampires using humans as their blood food. But after a conspiracy, everything changed."
"Now I wake up and find that I have become the representative of the Radical Party among the vampires... This feeling of being represented is really uncomfortable."
Marvin was skeptical.
Yin continued: "Of course I know what you are asking."
"Fenan is facing an unprecedented change. This change is certainly not limited to the Cosmic Magic Pond; this is just the beginning."
"No one can predict where it will go in the future, but do you feel that the world has become more chaotic over the past six months?"
At the last sentence, Yin blinked meaningfully.
Ma Wen's heart trembled.
In the past six months or so, incidents have indeed occurred frequently, order is facing collapse, and chaos is slowly descending.
But what does Yin mean by this sentence?
“Is this a hint that he knows my origins?” Marvin thought silently: “The past six months have been exactly the same as the six months I’ve traveled through time.”
In a sense, Marvin 's arrival is indeed accompanied by chaos in the multiverse.
This trend is still accelerating.
Cataclysm , star beast invasion...
Anyone with keen perception can sense that the order of the entire universe is gradually collapsing.
However, it is probably impossible to repair these things by one's own ability.
…
"A strong person like you should be qualified to participate in that game, right?"
Marvin simply stopped beating around the bush and asked directly for more information about the game.
The God of Truth revealed some, some were written in the Book of Naaru, and the Witch Queen Hathaway also said some.
But up to now, Marvin had received completely opposite information, and he couldn't actively believe either side.
He must obtain more information before he can determine whether it is true or false.
Only in this way can he make the best decision in the possible future.
Whether it is for myself or for the Baihe Valley.
Yin smiled bitterly: "There are only two people who are qualified to participate in that game."
"We are all just chess pieces, either obedient or disobedient. Some chess pieces relied on their strength and tried to struggle a few times, but were killed by others in the end."
"People like me who are selfish would just hide and sleep. But escaping is not a solution after all. This day will come, and we have to make some preparations."
Marvin frowned. This was not the answer he wanted to hear.
So he continued: "I heard about this game, but there are two versions."
"Which version do you think is true?"
Yin was silent for a long time, then looked at Ma Wen with a strange look: "It seems that you are indeed not an ordinary person. You know so many things."
"I thought you would firmly believe in the theory of the God of Truth."
"I heard you have a good relationship with her."
Marvin shook his head: "I just want to know the facts."
Yin spread his hands: "The fact is, no one knows who wants to destroy the world."
"If you're worried about being on the wrong side, then just don't be on either side. Find a place to hide and wait for the rain to pass and the sky to clear up, then everything will become clear."
Marvin snorted coldly: "Do you think there is still a place to hide?"
Yin smiled irresponsibly and said, "There is always a place to hide in this world."
Marvin was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "I have seen the new world."
After these words were spoken, even Yin, who had always been careless, became serious.
Without waiting for Yin to ask, Marvin told him without reservation about the new world he encountered in the stone tablet.
Lance must have had his reasons for setting up this stone tablet and that false and terrifying world.
Marvin couldn't guess the answer by himself, so he naturally wanted to find someone to help him.
In the case of the invasion of the Heavenly Kingdom, humans and vampires are not naturally hostile to each other, and Marvin did not sense any hostility . As the ancestor of the vampires, this guy should know a lot of unknown secrets. It would be great if he could get some information from him.
Sure enough, after listening to Ma Wen’s description, Yin’s already pale face became even uglier.
It is impossible for Marvin to describe such a world out of thin air.
If he saw it was real...
Yin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It seems that this time it is serious."
"Whoever wants to destroy this world has revealed their motives."
Ma Wen said: "New world?"
Yin nodded, with a look of reminiscence in his eyes: "There was such a rumor. It is said that at some point in the early Third Epoch, Fenan Plane Consciousness and Lance had a dispute. The two had a disagreement on the future development of the universe. One of them accused the world of being full of dirty things, which must be purified in order to build a perfect world."
"The conflict between the two sides didn't seem that big at the time. They finally adopted a compromise solution."
Marvin suddenly realized: "Creating a god?"
Yin nodded, a gleam in his eyes: "The new gods of the Third Epoch that you see now are actually the product of the compromise between Lance and Fenan's dimensional consciousness."
"We don't know who among them was the one who led the destruction of the world; but the only thing we can be sure of is that in the Third Age, they finally tried to solve the loopholes in this universe by promoting a group of new gods."
"They hope that these gods can handle matters within the priesthood like saints. In their own domain, they know everything. If they can make good use of this power, then the evil and chaos in this universe will gradually decrease..."
"However, the facts are completely opposite to their predictions."
"Those new gods that were promoted did not become saints. They were full of the bad qualities of humans or other lives. Not only did they fail to stop the chaos, evil, and struggles in the human world or other living worlds, they were even full of intrigue and deception among themselves."
"In short, this compromise plan ultimately failed. If there are winners, it's the gods."
"The appearance of the Slate of Destiny granted them immortality and previously unimaginable power - but unfortunately, they were still not satisfied."
Yin sneered and said, "But then again, Lance didn't have any good intentions. Although I don't know who proposed this plan, Lance must have known the result in advance. Because Fenan's plane consciousness may not have a deep understanding of human nature, but Lance is the God of Wizards! He is a human being himself, and he should know all the characteristics of humans. However, in the end he still chose this plan. What does this prove?"
"It proves that what is happening now is exactly what he wants to see. On the surface, the New God of the Third Epoch is the winner of this plan, but in fact, Lance should also be a beneficiary! Although I don't know what benefit the collapse of the Cosmic Demon Pool will bring to him."
Marvin listened carefully and asked thoughtfully, "So you think Lance is the real destroyer?"
Yin shrugged, "That's not necessarily the case. We can't easily guess the actions of those above us."
"However, if one day in the future you are faced with a difficult decision, you might as well think carefully about your experiences along the way."
"You are the one he chose, and everything has its meaning."
Having said that, Yin blinked.
Marvin was a little helpless. He actually didn't like this kind of riddle very much.
However, Marvin was already very satisfied that Yin, as his competitor, could tell him so much.
And at this moment, a shadow quietly appeared in a corner of the hall.
The third spot!
…
In an instant!
Those servants of God who were still trapped in the transparent glass house were shocked to find that the stone tablet in front of them had disappeared!
This means that they have been deprived of the final qualification to compete for the Stone of Destiny!
They subconsciously raised their heads and found that from these rooms, they could clearly see every move of the three people in the top floor hall.
They were not surprised by Marvin's appearance, after all, this pervert was the first to leave; the other two people were a little surprising.
Yin disappeared for so long that many of God's servants couldn't remember who he was.
As for the third person, even Marvin was a little surprised.
Although it was modified with powerful camouflage, that aura still could not escape Marvin's perception!
Patriarch Tianqing!
"How dare you appear in front of me?"
Marvin sneered.
When I was still weak, Patriarch Tianqing caused me a lot of trouble.
Ever since the Crimson Patriarch of the Twin Snakes died in Marvin's territory, the Azure Patriarch has started various actions against Marvin. Whether it was sending his servants to pretend to be his fiancée to assassinate him, or instigating Anbella to enter his dreams, the Azure Patriarch had put in a lot of effort against Marvin!
When Marvin was still weak, he couldn't resist, he could only escape.
And now, his strength has fully grown.
The strength of Patriarch Tianqing is still among the best in Fenan, but in Marvin's eyes, it is not worth mentioning!
He subconsciously wanted to take action!
Chief Tianqing's face changed, and he was about to escape, but at this moment, chaos slowly appeared in the center of the hall.
The chaos gradually dissipated, and an open road appeared before them.
This road is twisted, it leads from reality to the virtual world!
Legend has it that the fourth piece of the Stone of Destiny was sealed in the virtual world by Lance!
Chief Tianqing reacted the fastest and rushed in directly. He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ma Wen and Yin looked at each other, calmed down, and walked in slowly.
When Marvin stepped onto the path, the scenery around him suddenly changed.
He seemed to be on a tree-lined path on a summer evening, with a gentle breeze and a dense jungle in the distance.
In the jungle, the paths are winding and tortuous, making it difficult to see the real way forward.
Ma Wen and Yin walked side by side for a while, and suddenly a fork appeared in front of them.
All the way to the left, all the way to the right, it doesn't look any different.
Ma Wen nodded at Yin and chose the left path without hesitation.
Because in his perception tracking, Patriarch Tianqing chose this path.
Since they met in the Tower of Babel, Marvin was not going to let Patriarch Tianqing leave again.
This is Marvin’s confidence!
