Overturned Tower

Russell raised his head slowly, and the dim yellow had already filled his eye sockets, not just his pupils: "The spaceship of 'Babel' has lost its power, and we can no longer transport across the island until the sky is lit up again.

"Just as the people of Happy Island have lost the Internet they depended on, we are about to lose our universal door."

"...I'm just not fair for you. It's too hard for you like this."

Bad Ri's eyes were complicated: "The delphinium is about two or three months away, and the baby is about to be born. But I'm afraid you won't see that scene."

"Compared to Amirus, compared to the head of a deer...I am nothing."

Russell shook his head slightly.

He raised his head and closed his eyes: "Open the door for us one last time, Deer Head.

"—Regardless of whether they succeed in destroying the scripture server or not, remember to bring them back alive."

【farewell】

The voice of the deer head is calm and cold.

【I am very happy to meet you】

Chapter 50 The Beheading of the Sinner

"Torkey Fate."

In the bottom center of Happy Island, where the "Dragon Heart" is stored and the main machine that controls the equipment of the whole island is placed, a calm and confident young voice comes from the dark golden crystal throne.

It was a crystal throne more than five meters high, and the seat was more than one meter high from the ground.But the dark golden sacred mecha just happened to be able to sit on it.He even crossed one leg, with one elbow resting on his cheek, in a lazy state.

"I am here, His Majesty the Pope."

Behind him, an elf with no legs but six arms and a dark red halo on his head stood behind him, and responded respectfully.

"'Ash Dome' is now my eyes, and I can see clearly. The base where the 'Mother Tree' system is located has been destroyed by the giant dragon's cannon."

The pope said flatly, "Your plan has failed."

The virus-infected mother tree system will only allow the name-killing elves who enter the reincarnation sequence after death to become their members.Before that, the giant dragon made a decisive move to completely destroy the polluted "mother tree".

"It doesn't matter, this also means the end of the old era."

Tokifat did not feel any loss.

He even seemed quite happy, and his tone was brisk: "The original 'name inheritance' system should be a kind of inheritance of power and obligation. By continuously screening out the outstanding talents of the new generation, we will continue to transfer knowledge and power, as well as the truth of history , The future of the world, together with his own name and identity, was handed over to him.

"This was supposed to be a very sacred act. It's like primitive humans walking in the dark field, and we all hold sticks in our hands. The stick in the leader's hand becomes a torch, leading the crowd to the light, while others With sticks in hand, guards by his side. When he burns out, someone will step forward again and take the fire back...burn to death.

"They are the first. But they should not be the last. They are alphas, but they should not be Omega. They were in the past, they are in the present, but they should not be in the future.

"But they tampered with the mother tree system, ignored the last words of the previous civilization, and distorted the inheritance system. The civilization built on this kind of betrayal and deception has no hope at all-even the leaders have given up their glory. How can successors talk about self-esteem?"

——What is the value of continuation in such a civilization?What is the significance of protecting the human beings born in such a civilization?The initial path was already wrong, and it will only become more and more wrong in the future.

"It's better to overthrow everything—it's like throwing all the birds into the forest, leaving a piece of white land. It's really clean."

Tokifat said sarcastically.

"And this cannon was finally fired by the dragon, which has a wonderful sense of ridicule. Originally, they had a lot of opportunities to stop the elves, but they finally chose to remain silent. Since they chose to be silent at that time, it is now time to It's time to pay the price."

"I see. That's what you think."

Andrew nodded calmly.

"Why," Tokifat raised his head, "My lord. Haven't I already imported my thoughts into the scripture server? We have already merged into one... How can you not understand me?

"—Or, you also chose to cut off from the group and separate from us?"

"Yes."

Unexpectedly, Andrew responded calmly: "You are right.

"But I had to. My plan was sound—and in order to do that, I put myself on the board."

"……what?"

"And you, it's almost time to go back now."

The Pope—or rather, the young Pope spoke calmly in a voice that was unhesitating and exclusive.

The next moment, a brilliant light flashed, and Tokifat's body was suddenly torn apart!

But the mech sitting on the throne did not respond at all.

Because just before Tokifat was cut by the light, the dark red light in his pupils went out first.It was like a robot whose power had been cut off, cut and dismembered by the sword light the moment it fell down.

"...Tsk."

On a bad day, a regretful voice sounded: "The response is so fast, His Majesty the Pope."

He and Russell appeared from the corner of the door, one left and one right.

"What did I see? A pet cat, a pet dog. Did I go to the pet store?"

In the dark golden mecha, there was a powerful and steady voice of a young man reminiscent of a crackling bonfire in the dark: "It's a pity that the deer didn't come—was it because I was afraid of damaging the core computer room of Happy Island behind me? That's really gentle.

"--or in other words, if you look forward and look backward, you will not be a great weapon. Kamalthe is not wrong about the name of the inferior."

"While Torquay is not dead, he no longer takes the name Torquay. He leaves it to you, Russell."

Bad Day finally patted Russell on the shoulder, ready to leave.

Now that the pope exists in the form of "Dragon Heart", only Russell, who has obtained the power of "anti-electronics", can completely kill this data along the network cable.Even if Bad Day tried his best to tear it apart, he could only kill the dragon of Happy Island and let Happy Island fall.

It's just a pity that Tokifat couldn't kill it completely here.

But that is to let him escape for a little longer.

——When they catch up to the "Holy Temple", they will directly attack the central server.

"If my guess is correct," the Pope said suddenly, "your next stop is to go to the Temple Island where the 'Scripture' server is stored, and destroy the church's core server."

"how?"

Bad Day glanced at him, and his mind was not taken by the majestic appearance of the mech: "I declare in advance that even if you beg me, I will not let them go. But if His Excellency wants to say something nice, If you want to beg me sincerely, I'm not afraid of wasting time."

"I'm just proving to you," the pope replied, "after obtaining the computing power of the dragon's heart, I can easily predict your actions. I can even kill Tokifat before you show up." The data is saved back.

"—So, do you think I don't know that you sent Russell to kill me?"

"……Um."

Bad Day hummed lightly for no apparent reason.

He put his hand on Russell's shoulder, and tapped twice with the middle finger and ring finger of his left hand.

This means asking if he needs to stay and help.

Russell shook his head, but stepped forward instead.

"Seeing the firepower of the dragon, you should know...it's useless for you to stay here."

The dragon's energy comes from the dragon's heart, which transmits energy remotely.

Being able to fire such a devastating shot shows just how far the Dragon Heart, which is a perpetual motion machine, can do.As an energy transmission device, the dragon heart is made into such a form that is good at multi-terrain and multi-field combat, obviously for the purpose of being able to abandon the hull and run directly at critical moments, or to fight against special forces sneaking into the ship. of.

In other words, even if he adds Russell, he may not be able to beat the heart of the dragon.If it is physically destroyed, it will be even more problematic.It's better to support the underdogs.

On Russell's side, there is a tricky way.

——In other words, he may be the only one in the world who has the chance to defeat the Pope who has obtained infinite power.

At the same time, it has the spiritual power of "caged bird" and the power of "anti-electron"...

"Remember to close the door. I have something to talk to His Majesty the Pope."

Russell spoke softly, and Bad Day nodded thoughtfully.

"You are also careful."

Bad Day didn't say much, but chose to believe Russell.

And the moment Bad Day closed the door and left, a birdcage suddenly appeared on Russell's right hand behind his back.

The moment the door slammed, the slender metal birdcage opened by itself.

Accompanied by heavy handcuffs and the clang of foot shackles falling to the ground, the bright ultramarine color flows out of the birdcage like an endless sea, turning into monstrous sea water and rolling into whirlpools, bringing the standing Russell and the sitting Andrew together. Get involved.

wow-

wow-

Accompanied by the sound of the tide, it fades away.

When Russell and Andrew reappeared, they appeared in the middle of the ocean.

The deep blue ocean is constantly undulating underfoot, and the sky is blue and cloudless above.You can also hear the sound of seagulls coming from nowhere, and the rhythmic waves of waves are everywhere around you.

And in the middle of the sky hangs a bright sun.Against the backdrop of that daylight, the ocean is as bright and beautiful as sapphires that are constantly breaking.

It was pure blue in every direction—only the two of them had a small patch of land under their feet.

The place where the sea and the sky communicate seems to be in the distance that cannot be seen at a glance, and the whole world seems to be endless at a glance.But the scope of his own activities is as narrow as a cone.

"It's beautiful. This is the real sun and the real blue sky." Russell said softly.

He wasn't wearing his Happy Island Special Operations uniform.Instead, he wears a slightly larger white wool cloak with a hood.His inner clothes were also some worn linen.

Although his clothes were a bit worn out, they were very clean.It was a gift from the people on the ground. It looked very fluffy and smooth, and it seemed to emit a white shimmer against the sunlight.And Russell's silver-white prosthetic hand protruded from the linen clothes, holding a brilliant golden lightsaber.

He just stood there calmly, without any attacking movements.That extremely thin body was in stark contrast to the three-meter-high steel mech sitting opposite him on the five-meter-high crystal throne.

"This is the psychic power you got from Xiao Liuli, right?"

Seeing all this, Sheng Sheng was still sitting on his crystal throne, propping his chin lazily.His body was covered with sunlight, shining with dazzling brilliance, and the dark golden crystal throne behind him was like another sun on the ground.

The young pope said calmly: "Being able to peel off the bondage of the 'external object' on the body...you want to use it to peel me off from the dragon's heart, right?

"—Then, why not give it a try? See if it can bypass my Holy Order's power and peel off my soul."

Staring deeply at the dark golden holy mecha with eyes lit with crimson lights, Russell narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his head.

Dim yellow light overflowed.The sea surface under his feet is centered on him, and finer and finer ripples continue to spread outward.

"It turns out that...you can't resonate with Tokifat because you cut off the link from the 'group god'."

Russell just whispered softly, but his voice echoed under the sky: "Let me guess why you did this.

"—Because the 'Dragon Heart' is also within the negative range of 'Anti-Superman'. As long as you want to hold a perpetual motion machine based on the Dragon Heart, you cannot use the power of 'Anti-Superman', because it You will deny yourself. You built Noah's Ark with your own hands, but you didn't get on board."

"Wrong. I couldn't get on the ship from the very beginning. Someone had to occupy the dragon's body and control Ash Vault. And that meant that that person had to be separated from the group—and had the power to do so. "

The young pope replied calmly: "And I knew this ending a long time ago. Only I can do it. After mastering the power of the dragon, I will never be corrupted. So I am the only one who can do this .”

"Won't be corrupted?"

Russell smiled: "Do you think so...'His Majesty the Pope'?"

"I didn't admit it, this is Torquay's wishful thinking."

The young man shook his head: "Although he has hatred and jealousy towards those elves thousands of years ago. But he himself still lived more than 100 years ago... in the era with kings and nobles. He also Things that are behind the times are no different from those he despises."

"...Don't you know that too well?"

Russell's tone became more relaxed: "What is the difference between your behavior and the dragon and the monkey-faced eagle?"

"The difference is that I have the determination and perseverance to withdraw from that eternity."

The voice of the young man resounded like a god: "I must thank you, Russell. During that chat, you let me know my own shortcomings. I realized that my plan is still being blinded, and history I will eventually return to the cycle. It was your 'external force' that kicked me out of the cycle."

"me too."

Russell said softly: "You reminded me of something very important... For example, don't be you."

A god-like and haughty voice sounded from the mech, calm, objective, compassionate, and high above the ground: "I know. That's why I will execute the plan in advance and interrupt your [-]% possibility of swallowing your dreams. That's why I will stay here forever , Waiting for you to pull me into the small world of this caged bird. The only thing beyond my plan is that the sheath went to you on its own initiative and gave you the power of the Holy Order of the 'Anti-Electronics'.

"Both of you, father and son, have the same willfulness. Even if you go against the whole world, you will never waver because of it... This kind of impulse makes me always unable to perfectly calculate all the possibilities."

Speaking of this, the Pope suddenly changed his subject: "You should know, the 'black dome' that covers the world, right? I call it the 'black sky' - the son of Vasudeva and Devaki, Vishnu The incarnation of a slave."

"The incarnation of 'God of Protection' Vishnu, Krishna..."

Russell chewed on the name: "It was a surprise. I thought it would be 'Darkworld'."

There is a one-letter difference between Hetian and Mahakala, but they are the incarnations of Vishnu and Shiva respectively.

The former are "maintainers" and the latter are "destroyers".
