Chapter 603 The Prison That Blocks the Starry Sky (23)

——Prisoner Star Heavenly Prison.

When Ian heard these words, his heart suddenly tightened.

He bowed his head.

In an instant, Ian thought of many things... he thought of the star map that he had crossed out the stars one by one in his private laboratory on the second floor of the White Room Grocery in Port Harrison, and thought of the South China Sea Maze. The endlessly bright vast sea of ​​stars.

Ian thought about it, those stars that have gradually disappeared since the disaster of falling from the sky, and now the dark night sky on the dome of Terra...whether it is the second prince's phrase "stand on the top of the mountain", or The fact that no one looked up at Gao Tian made his heart tremble.

I felt an inexplicable sadness.

【Yeah, you really know very well... So, the successor of Hilliard, the only descendant of Fudo Fortress—how can you not understand me, my anxiety and urgency? 】

Grand Duke Thorin noticed Ian's momentary gaffe. Although the young man controlled it well afterwards, he was also keenly aware of the emotional fluctuations.

He didn't laugh at this, but explained to Ian in the same voice containing complex emotions, and also said to himself: [We all know that the time is coming, and there are almost no stars in the sky... In the end The time is coming]

[If Heavenly Hell is completed, our last chance—the last chance we got at the cost of the destruction of the civilization of the previous era and the collapse of the Gazing Moon will be completely gone! 】

[However, now I am the only one left... Facing the Prisoner Prison that will seal everything into darkness, with my ability, I can no longer resist, so I can only try to perfect the dead king... perfect the 'spiritual fire seed', To fight for the last chance of survival]

【Grand Duke! 】

At this moment, Adalbert plucked up his courage, and he asked loudly, confusedly and urgently: 【What are you talking about? !What is Prisoner Star Prison, and what does it have to do with the Heavenly Disaster? ! 】

【Why, in the face of this disaster, we have to do such cruel and terrifying evil deeds that violate human nature? ! 】

After becoming the dead king, even Yadbert, who used to regard the Grand Duke as his only hope in life, has the courage to question for his "people".

Grand Duke Sorin was not angry, he just looked at Adalbert with a trace of undetectable sadness in his eyes: 【If you want to know, then I will tell you】

【It's just Yadbert, you have to promise me that you will seriously think about every word I say next】

[every sentence]

【I will, Grand Duke】The Dead Lord took a deep breath, his face became firm: 【Please just tell me】

— Well done, Adalbert.

And Ian thought in his heart: "You have asked all the questions that I am not easy to ask!"

Based on Ian's current position, it is not normal to ask these comparisons. Theoretically, what the people of Inaiga II knew back then is not normal, and Yadbert perfectly helped Ian kick an assist.

Grand Duke Sorin didn't know Ian's inner thoughts, he just raised his hand, and many balls of light floating around him rose into the sky in the box garden, and then formed a piece of land that might be incomprehensible to the people of Terra, but to the people of Terra. For Ian, it's just that the details are a little strange, and the overall structure is familiar, just like returning home to the star map.

Star map of the solar system of Terra.

A gigantic silver sun shines in the center of the sky, and balls the size of ping-pong balls revolve around it at extremely long distances. If you don't pay special attention, you can't see these small silver balls in the sky
[This is the world we live in - you and I all live in this vast and narrow starry sky... From the perspective of the void, all of us live on this small ball not much bigger than my two fingers 】

Grand Duke Sorin was floating in the air. Under his will, the Death River Armor was just a set of ordinary armor, which could not affect his will at all, and could only be his projected physical body.

The Dead River Armament itself, through continuous fighting and death, integrates the driver and all reserve souls into one, forming a super-completion individual artificial catalytic armed force, which will inevitably affect people's thinking and soul.

If all human beings are integrated into the Dead River Armed Forces, I am afraid that the "virtual entity" representing the collective will of human beings can be manifested in the real world.

But in the face of the fourth energy level, the wailing of a million-level dead soul is like a breeze blowing on the face.

He raised his hand, and gently held up a fourth planet representing 'Tera' with his ferocious claws. The Grand Duke's voice was unbelievably gentle: [This is our hometown... tiny void dust, vast The soil of life, our home, our cradle]

He threw out the light ball representing the planet, and immediately, the light ball began to grow rapidly—almost instantly, the phantom of a giant planet appeared in front of Adalbert and Ian.

This is a blue planet, almost the entire planet is a blue ocean, and the Terra continent they are familiar with is located in the northern part of the planet above the equator... It is a complete continent, with the Mediterranean Sea, mountains, Grasslands and forests and snowfields, the entire continent is lifelike, with real bumps and valleys.

In addition, to the west of the continent of Terra, almost at the opposite equator, there is another continent, which is the newly 'discovered' in recent years, or the 'new continent' that has been developed.

But this continent is very strange. Except for the edges, there is very little green on it. Even if there is, it is just dots, not continuous.

The entire continent is like a scorched but revived wooden stake. Although it has begun to recover and some green shoots have emerged, overall, it is still scorched black.

Two moons orbit the planet, one intact but the other crumbling.

[Even, the land we live on is still insignificant compared to the planet as a whole—those who have seriously studied the history of the pre-epoch should know that in the pre-epoch civilization, there were as many as five continents. There are seven pieces]

【However, after the catastrophe of the skyfall, the heaven and the earth changed drastically. We descendants have no way of knowing the reason, but no matter what, it is true that there are only two continents and the southern frost and permafrost on the entire planet.】

Thorin was just, he stared at the planet in front of him: [So, do you understand?Alberto, we humans are so small. 】

Adalbert was stunned for a while, he was obviously still thinking about all that the Grand Duke had shown him.

For a young man who has never been out of the Grand Dukedom in his whole life, and even went to the imperial capital once to get a degree in alchemy, it is obviously a very troublesome task to understand how big the planet is and how small his hometown is. matter.

This is the reason why summer insects are indescribable.

But he still understood—relying on the fact that he had seen the map of the empire, and by comparison, he knew which area the empire was located in, and in which area the Grand Duke of Thorin was located.

That was the location of the Viscount of Avak. He could hardly find such a small Viscount. It was like...

【It's just... like dust】

He whispered to himself, his eyes dimmed a little, as if thinking of how insignificant human beings are compared to such a star - but soon, Adbert became angry again, he raised his head, and glared at Grand Duke Thorin :【But no matter how small it is, it should not be regarded as a prop for sacrifice!Grand Duke, you are not such a person, are you? ! 】

[I want to know... the real reason why you want to advance the Avak Lab and its plan! 】

[Don't worry] Grand Duke Sorin smiled, this smile has no warmth: [This is just a prerequisite for what I want to tell you]

[Now] He paused word by word: [Adelbert, start imagining]

[Imagine that on the outer layer of the planet Terra, there is an invisible cage that shields all foreign things, even light]

Lord Sorin said: [Can you do it? 】

Adbert froze in place.

If it was before, he couldn't.But if it is now, with the phantom of the huge planet beside Grand Duke Sorin as the basis, he can certainly imagine it.

He raised his head and looked at the planet.

Grand Duke Thorin clapped his hands, and a layer of dull dust covered the entire planet. .

Immediately, the entire planet Terra dimmed and fell into a dead silence without light.

Not to mention that there are no stars, even the light of the sun, other planets, and the moon has disappeared.

The whole world fell into the ultimate destruction and decay, the vegetation rotted, the sea froze, and everything fell into silence.

【This, what is this...】

This scene made Yadbert feel horrified: 【This is Prisoner Star Prison?A cage that covers the planet?But how is this possible... Don't we still have the sun now... How could there be such a big cage...]

Even Ian frowned.He thought of something, but wasn't sure yet.

And Grand Duke Thorin's voice helped him to be sure.

[Are you starting to get scared?Adalbert, don't stop, this is just the beginning - now, you continue to imagine]

Thorin was just, and his tone was strangely cold: [Imagine this cage ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times—until you can’t imagine it! 】

[Thinking that this cage is enough to cover the entire star field, including the sun, all the planets in this planetary system, and even the outer nebula]

[Use the gravitational force of this star to the limit, and imprison the entire territory of the scorching sun! 】

[Imagine!Adalbert!If such a cage covers us, can it explain the fact that all the stars disappear almost at the same time! ? 】

He shouted loudly, almost roaring: [If such a star prison covers us, not just us, but the stars in the sky, all the stars—]

[Then can you understand the anomalies observed by pre-epoch civilizations! ? 】
