Endless Debt

Xilin looked around, seeing absolute darkness surging around him, as if it had swallowed up all the light. Looking ahead, there was only a white desert in his field of vision, with no green trees or flowers, no ponds or rivers, and no animals at all. traces.

Stepping on the cold sand, the power of the ether surged slightly, and Xilin easily formed the material composition, which was all gray dust and rocks.

The ground is covered with countless potholes, as if they were formed by the impact of some giant object. Some are large and some are small, some are deep and some are shallow. Some of the potholes are extremely deep, even creating steep slopes dozens of meters deep on the ground. cliff.

In addition to potholes, the raised exposed rocks also have geological textures such as tears and dense structures. Under the illumination of the light, these incredible patterns become clear, as if they were caused by volcanic activity or the solidification process of basalt lava. Forming.

This is not the first time Xilin has come to this strange place. Every time he comes here, he will have a strong sense of strangeness and confusion, as if this land should not exist in the real world.

Xilin knew that it did exist in the real world, but it did not exist on the land he knew well.

Raising his head, Xilin saw the blue planet in the gap through the suspended, mountain-like boulders.

After being summoned by the devil, Xilin arrived in the void and reached the moon hanging high in the sky.

Looking into the distance, you can still see the hills covered by dust. The hills seem to be completely covered by a thick gray-green sky. This vast dust is like a thick layer of fog, and like a layer of dark "tumors" everywhere on the moon's surface.

Continuing to walk forward for some distance, Xilin saw the only figure on this gray land, a figure wearing a heavy diving suit.

He was like a hard-working farmer, cultivating his crops in a desolate world, unknown to anyone.

"Hey, Xilin."

Leviathan stopped what he was doing, stood up straight, and looked at Xilin at this time. Under the heavy hood, there was a smile, "I haven't seen you like this for a long time. It's really impressive." I miss you."

Xilin didn't like Leviathan, he even said he hated it, but he knew that he needed Leviathan.

This devil always looks calm, as if everything is under his arrangement, just like his resurrection this time.

Xilin was already in despair, but a miracle still happened.

"What did you summon me for?" Xilin asked.

"It's nothing, I just want to talk to you about future development issues," Leviathan sounded like a company leader. "After all, you have your own body back now. No matter what you want to do, no one should be able to do it." I can’t stop you.”

As Leviathan spoke, he dragged up the "goods" at his feet. Xilin also noticed the goods at this time. His eyes froze for a moment and he couldn't help but ask.

"What's this?"

"Hmm... let me think about it," Leviathan thought about how to explain to Xilin, "It's just like human metabolism to maintain life."

"When you eat something and absorb its essence, you must also eliminate the waste."

Leviathan dragged the cargo to the edge of the crater. The bottom was shrouded in shadow, and countless corpses could be vaguely seen filling the bottom of the crater.

"You can understand it as a kind of waste material that is metabolized after resurrection."

Leviathan lowered his head and glanced at the cargo. It was a person, an adult male, with the same face as Boluogo. It was even said that he was Boluogo himself.

But this body is already dead.

Leviathan kicked the corpse hard, and saw it rolling along the slope of the crater, splashing moon dust all over the sky, and being piled into the mountain of corpses.

"What exactly is he?" Xilin couldn't help but ask, "Bologo Lazarus, what is his significance?"

"He is just a tool, like you, a tool to achieve an end."

Leviathan motioned to Xilin to follow him, "Forget it, let's not talk about him for now. It's better to talk about yourself."

He then asked, "About yourself, Xilin, don't you have anything to ask me?"

Xilin fell silent. After a long time, the outdoor cinema appeared at the end of the horizon, and then Xilin spoke.

"how did you do it?"

"Which part?"

"All the parts, how did you get my body out?"

This is something Xilin couldn't figure out. Nathaniel could have hidden his body deep in the chamber, but he actually took such a risk and brought it to the battlefield, saying that he was preparing to trade with the King's Secret Sword. , but if it is full of loopholes, how could Xilin believe it.

"I still have some influence within the Bureau of Order. Entrusting them with a favor is not a problem."

"What about Gray?"

Xilin asked what puzzled him the most: why did Gray appear when he was about to die?

There is no loophole or flaw in Gray's motivation and consciousness, but Xilin feels that the more perfect it is, this extreme perfection is not the biggest flaw.

The more he thought about it, the more Xilin felt a sense of fear, as if Leviathan was truly omnipotent, and as long as he decided on something, the whole world would help him achieve it.

"Oh? There is no conspiracy or trick in this part. I just know Mammon's nature and Gray's will too well."

Leviathan said nonchalantly, "As long as you know a person well enough, many of his actions are easy to predict."

"Just like the Order Bureau brought your body out, did I really directly influence their will? Actually, no, I just gave a little suggestion. Besides, I brought your body out and carried out Trading, this behavior makes logical sense.”

Leviathan raised his hand and pushed forward slightly, "Many times, all you need to do is this."

Xilin remained silent and followed closely behind Leviathan.

From beginning to end, he could not see through this devil.

"Mammon is a suspicious guy. Although he doesn't know my purpose, he thinks that as long as he can hinder me, it is enough, so he will definitely come to interfere with me. As for Gray, he can guess better."

Leviathan talked about the poor man.

"Gray, a man deeply influenced by chivalry and ancient honor, has always thought that he is righteous... What would he do if he knew the truth of everything?"

Leviathan smiled, "You see, Gray's actions are also very predictable, aren't they?"

"But all these choices lie with others," Xilin said. "You place the key on the ever-changing human nature? You are betting."

Leviathan almost laughed, "I like to bet on the changing nature of human nature. Don't you think it's fun? Winning is also a great sense of accomplishment."

"Just like you, Xilin."

Leviathan suddenly turned his finger on Xilin himself, and he continued, "Beelzebub controls the Kogadel royal family and indirectly controls the huge King's Secret Swords, not to mention that the Orangutan Sect is also directly controlled by her. ... This is a difficult opponent. To deal with her, I need to consume a lot of energy, and it may even affect my purpose."

"So I choose to help you, Xilin, to help you get your body back. What you need to do is also very simple. Fight back to the Pillar of Kingship and take back the throne you deserve."

Leviathan's voice became evil, and there was a darkness that was growing madly under the heavy diving suit.

"You wouldn't refuse me to use you, right? You would be willing to be used by me, right?"

Xilin's face was as tense as a strung crossbow, his rage suppressed but ultimately unable to be released.

Yes, as long as Xilin still harbors anger, he will definitely fight back to the Pillar of Kingship. If he wants to regain the crown, he must kill the first king... along with the devil behind him, the King's Secret Sword, and the Orangutan Sect. , all enemies who try to stop Xilin will be crushed by him.

And this is also the enemy of Leviathan.

"Look, human nature is still very trustworthy," Leviathan laughed hoarsely, "If you want to resist me, the way is very simple, just find a place to spend the rest of your life safely, but you really can Can you bear it?"

"What do you want?"

Xilin felt a pain, the pain of being restrained, "Leviathan, you have done so much and controlled so many people, what do you want to do?"

Leviathan did not answer immediately, but instead called Xilin to the open-air cinema. He fell on the recliner and looked at the starry sky above his head, which was filled with rubble.

"Xilin, have you heard of space suits?" Leviathan suddenly asked.

"what is that?"

"A kind of clothing for human beings to carry out deep space exploration and protect themselves...that is what I am wearing now."

Leviathan knocked on his helmet and complained in a low voice, "This is not some strange diving suit, this is a space suit, the only one in the world."

Xilin didn't understand what Leviathan was talking about.

"We are now in deep space. This is a deadly place. Here we will face many problems such as oxygen, air pressure, radiation, etc., and this suit can protect us from surviving in this desperate situation."

Leviathan continued, "Do you want to experience the real feeling of deep space? This is my land and is protected by me. As long as I remove this protection, you will be completely exposed to deep space.

The low temperature will freeze your body, the air pressure will crush your internal organs, your lungs will explode into blood, and you will even be penetrated by high-speed dust particles and high doses of radiation. "

Xilin said nothing. He couldn't understand what Leviathan said at all. Leviathan also understood this, and his voice sounded a little disappointed.

"Well, I don't blame you. After all, in this world, humans haven't even built rockets, let alone explored deep space. This knowledge is more valuable than gold..."

"Is this knowledge about the starry sky?" Xilin gradually understood what Leviathan was referring to.

"Well, I like the starry sky very much. I often look up at it. In order to know the nature of the starry sky, I even implemented some crazy plans..."

Leviathan changed his voice and asked Xilin again, "Xilin, do you know the starry sky and how vast the universe is?"

Xilin shook his head. He rarely looked up at the stars and never even considered what was above the clouds. Many people are like this.

Leviathan raised his hand, and the moon dust surged, forming spheres of different sizes in his hand. They were arranged and suspended in a ring.

"This is a microcosm of the galaxy we are in. In the middle is the blazing sun that illuminates everything, and this is the planet we are on."

Leviathan explained to Xilin like a teacher, "From the core to the edge, there is a distance of nearly six billion kilometers. Xilin, can you understand the concept of this distance scale?"

Xilin was stunned for a moment. His brain could not process such a huge digital concept for a while. For Xilin and most people in this world, in front of the starry sky, they were just primitive primitives looking down at the earth. people.

"The solar system like ours is wrapped in a much larger system. In this system, there are at least hundreds of billions of solar systems like ours, and above this system, there are There is a larger system...larger and more boundless..."

As Leviathan spoke, his voice weakened, and his whole figure seemed to be immersed in a small despair caused by the world being too macroscopic and great.

Xilin also froze in place. He could not understand these words intuitively, but from the beating and shocking numbers, Xilin could feel the same shock.

This is not enough.

Leviathan stood up suddenly and grabbed Xilin's head. For a moment, Xilin's vision fell into darkness. In the absolute darkness, he saw a flickering light spot, and then the light spot spread like a virus. The dense spots of light almost engulfed everything.

Billions of rays of light gathered together to form a halo that floated like silk. There were thousands of such haloes. They flashed and pulled at high speed. In the crazy scene, Xilin screamed uncontrollably. He stood up, and his screams were accompanied by changes in his vision.

Everything is becoming extremely small, everything is becoming extremely grand.

The infinite is endless.

The gray vision came into his eyes again. Xilin stood there blankly, sweat soaked through his clothes, his mind was blank, and he had no more thoughts.

Under the grand landscape, Xilin actually felt a kind of emptiness and depression. Emotions are fleeting.

"Every point of light is a world like ours."

Leviathan's voice rose slowly, and his voice was full of surprise, "Xilin, how vast this world is, don't you want to see what is at the end?"

When mentioning this, the devil behaved piously like a scholar who was obsessed with knowledge.

"Sirin Kogardel."

The devil's voice became solemn. He raised his head and looked at the bright sky with tears in his eyes.

"Look, how small we are compared to this vast expanse. Our hatred, our honor, and even our destruction have all become meaningless."

After a long silence, a powerful voice sounded again.

"I once dreamed of becoming an astronaut, but now I'm stuck on this earth."

The devil's words are full of desire, uncontrollable desire.

"I want to end this aimless strife, and I want to become the only king of devils."

Then, like a child, the devil looked up at the stars.
