Myth: The Spiritual Dominator

Chapter 222 The Little Man in the Box (Page 13)

No one knows that just like Iapitus who accidentally saw a corner of the future, another ordinary mortal saw his destiny at the end of his life. He made a prophecy in this forgotten corner of the world, and then dispersed with the wind and disappeared into the dust.

Maybe descendants will come here thousands of years later, but they will only wonder why there is only such a skeleton left in the city washed away by the flood, and they will not remember who he was or what he did. Only the stone slab that was placed in the temple may be able to carry traces of his existence and truly last forever.

On the other side, in the ruins of the city, two teams that had escaped the disaster left separately. Due to different beliefs, they went in different directions: one went west, towards Olympus; the other went south, following the path of starlight. However, the former was very lucky. Before they left far, they met Hestia, who was coming in a hurry following the power of faith, at the edge of the plateau.

The goddess learned of their deeds and was grateful for their piety, so Hestia finally allowed them to walk the world in the name of her messengers. And the cluster they drew from the original holy fire later became the source of the holy fire in the fourth-generation human city.

As humans gradually multiplied and multiplied on the land, whenever a new settlement was to be opened, the first thing people had to do was to attract these flames that could make the ferocious beasts retreat. And these messengers recognized by God have become the guardians of the holy fire in every city. Although they do not participate in governance and only devote themselves to opening up the wilderness and driving out the darkness, they hold a pivotal position everywhere.

As the goddess once said, she is not going to do anything because she does not need a specific city or country to consider her as a patron. But she seems to have done everything. There are traces of her in every corner of the human world.

As for the other side, the people led by Nuo were still moving forward, and the angels did not intend to contact them further before reaching their destination. However, I don’t know whether it was a coincidence or the guidance of fate. On the way, these migrating people met a group of water elves who had lost their homes due to floods.

These beings born in the water do not have a specific ontology, at least most of them do. However, as nymphs born in lakes and swamps, they still need to live close to water sources. After meeting, Nuo, who was greatly surprised, preached the greatness of the Lord to them and invited them to go to the place where the city was founded guided by the starlight. The elves who had nowhere to go finally agreed and were willing to become believers of the supreme god in exchange for a safe home under the light of the holy fire.

The last flow of people dispersed, and as the wind and sand swept across, there was no more human trace on this plateau. The ever-extinguishing sacred fire burns alone, witnessing this bronze site that is less than a century old.

As time goes by, everything will be buried in the past, and only history will remember everything silently.

······

Months flew by in the blink of an eye.

On the edge of the Aurora Plateau, green once again covers the land, but the childishness can still be clearly seen. After the flood receded, under Demeter's authority, various plants immediately grew dozens of times faster. In just a few months, the eastern part of the continent returned to its former glory.

It's a pity that vegetation can grow, but life cannot be achieved quickly. Except for the occasional birds passing by in the sky, there are no traces of animals at all on this flooded land.

The earth fell silent, except for the sound of the wind and the blowing leaves, everything was so quiet. It will undoubtedly take a long time for the Eastern Continent to truly return to the way it was before the disaster.

However, on this day, on the edge of the plateau, under an unknown tree, a special sound suddenly came out.

Kaka-

boom--

click -

Friction and noise came from the underground, as if some life was digging, which seemed very abrupt in the post-flood world. The soil on the surface shook slightly, splashing some dust.

At a certain moment, when the amplitude of the vibration reached its peak, with a muffled sound, the soil was completely broken.

The light from the outside enters the cave entrance, and a figure is vaguely reflected. But maybe because he stayed in the dark environment for a long time, he didn't know what to do next. After a long time, it seemed that he had gradually adapted to the outside light, and the figure finally stretched his hand out of the hole, and then pushed it hard.

boom--

"Cough-cough-"

"Is this... in the past?"

"Fortunately, it's not the worst outcome."

The robe was a little dirty, so Ender summoned a gust of breeze to blow away the dust on his body. Although he still hasn't learned even the simplest witchcraft, this simple application of spirits and elements really doesn't trouble him.

And it is worth mentioning that Ender has finally taken a step further in meditation and reached the fourth level. At this point, he is only one step away from the [Legend].

Maybe ten years, maybe decades, but before the mortal life is exhausted, he will finally have the opportunity to explore that area. After all, although he is not as good as a born god, his talent among mortals is actually extremely outstanding.

"When that time comes, I'm really looking forward to using what Mr. Lane left me."

Ender silently stroked the puppet in his arms, feeling a little thankful. If it weren't for this parting gift, he probably wouldn't have been able to avoid this disaster.

Perhaps for real fourth-level wizards, a flood that does not involve extraordinary power is not a big deal. They can easily fly in the sky. As long as they pay attention to avoiding the sons of Poseidon and those powerful sea monsters, then it is not a big deal. He would encounter any real danger, but Ender was different.

After all, he is a dabbler who has only practiced 'internal strength' but not any 'moves'. Facing strange beasts, he can still pretend to be powerful and frighten them. But facing the huge waves, Ender can't Nothing can be done. So in the end, he relied on using his mental power to stimulate the puppet left by Ryan, briefly stimulating its magic, and was able to survive the natural disaster.

But now, the puppet can no longer be used for the time being, and Ender is not qualified to truly accommodate it after all. Fortunately, the disaster is over, and there will probably be no other dangers in a short period of time.

After scanning the surrounding environment, Ender turned to the hole he climbed out of before and shouted:

"The disaster has passed, everyone, come up. The food we have stored is almost used up, and we need to seize the time to collect more."

Yes, Ender wasn't hiding by himself. When disaster struck, he, with his kind nature, protected every panicked and helpless bronze human being, regardless of whether the two parties knew each other before or not, and whether their relationship was good or bad.

And when the flood hit, Ender also used the power of puppets to protect everyone. Even while hiding underground, he was responsible for distributing food to everyone. Now that the disaster is coming to an end, he has arranged for everyone to take turns digging upwards, and he will be the first person to reach the ground. He knew it was dangerous, but Ender stood up anyway.

"The result is good after all. Since we didn't find ourselves surrounded by sea monsters at the first time, then the gods who caused the disaster probably didn't find out about our survival. Or maybe they did, but no one cared about us."
