Lost Narrative Poetry

"name."

The maid, who was as delicate as a doll, sat calmly behind the table and asked the visitor calmly. She held the quill gently with her slender fingers, and the tip of the pen hovered above the roster.

"Benjamin..."

"Annie..."

The person in front of the table spoke.

He is an ethereal and pale spirit body, like a ghost, and like a three-dimensional shadow. In its deep outline, countless glimmers of light are shining like stars dotting the night sky. If you look carefully, there is a vast universe in it. Faintly visible.

This is an incomparably powerful immortal who has transformed the entire universe dimension with his magic. As a carrier to carry himself through the world, he is an incarnation surrounded by countless stars and the embodiment of the power of the universe.

It's just that in this Taoist temple, the immortal is not noble. Just like other colleagues before him, he can only come here to register and honestly explain his basic information. But as a divine descendant from the upper realm, he still gets some special treatment.

Otherwise, Charlotte wouldn't be keeping track.

Ordinary "travelers" and "visitors from outside the territory" cannot make the maid take a second look. She represents the master's will.

"Benjamin or Annie?"

The head maid asked coldly, without writing rashly.

"Both of them, this is the name shared by the two of us." The Immortal who is the incarnation of the humanoid universe explained. His voice was very strange, like a mixture of male and female voices, and there was a faint echo between the words, like While one person is speaking, another person is repeating the same sentence.

Miss Doll's expression remained unchanged. She just raised her eyes slightly and glanced, and instantly understood the truth.

Her body, her form, and her spirituality were all polished by the Master's own hands. As one of the few creations created by his own hands, she is undoubtedly the purest treasure among them. From structure to function, she is perfect to the extreme, mysterious and elegant. She is probably one of the most perfect and powerful alchemical beings in the entire infinite world. .

Like a created angel, a messenger who carries out the will of the Supreme God.

Those magnificent ruby-like red eyes seemed to contain a brilliance that was billions of times more brilliant than burning stars. Invisible rays replaced the action and function of the gaze, directly cutting through every inch of the void. , making all the secrets invisible.

This immortal is not an independent individual, but a mixture of two wills. From the level of soul, consciousness, existence...etc., the two individuals are intertwined together and become a weird conjoined twin-like thing. Existing form.

It is somewhat difficult to understand why it has reached this point, but since there are no problems and it has successfully become a god, it means that the two former individuals should have voluntarily merged and assimilated each other to become a brand new fusion body.

However, Charlotte had no idea of ​​​​exploring. She simply wrote the name "Benjamin Anne" on the record list.

The moment the names were recorded and the pen tip left the paper, the Twin Immortals keenly discovered that a certain connection was emerging between themselves and the roster. The cause and effect of the spell quickly emerged and took shape, connecting the two. together.

He didn't do anything, he just accepted it all happening calmly.

After all, when I came here, I was already mentally prepared.

Whether it was the roster or the silver-haired and red-eyed doll in front of him, even a trace of his breath leaked out, which made him feel palpitations.

There is no doubt that both of them are the creations of the god who is leading all of this. However, it is precisely such a majestic existence that is countless times more noble than any immortals and immortals that can be qualified to attack Greece. The world shows its fangs...

It is precisely because of this that many sharks gradually smelled the blood and swarmed towards this place.

For example, He Himself is one of them.

"Which area in space do you come from?" Charlotte didn't pay much attention to it. She just recorded the name and continued to ask. She didn't seem to be interested at all, or it should be said that no matter what she was thinking, at least it couldn't be seen on the surface.

"The number is AE1458..."

"Is there a guarantor?"

"No." At this moment, the Immortal couldn't help but feel that this experience was a bit inconsistent. It seemed that a long, long time ago, when a part of him was still a mortal, he had been caught and squatted several times. It seemed that At that time, I had experienced being asked to take notes.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed, lamenting the vicissitudes of time.

At this time, Charlotte nodded and said calmly: "I already understand your basic situation. Welcome to join our troublemaker organization... When can you join?"

"...That's enough now." The Immortal was silent for a moment, and his tone seemed to be that he couldn't help but sigh.

This feeling of coming to a Taoist temple to register information, then passing an on-site interview, and then being hired on the spot and getting a job opportunity, is so awkward... There seems to be no problem with the link itself, but there are problems with the location, people and other elements of each link. , it’s even worse if they are sewn together.

"Very good, Master said that our organization needs high-level talents like you..." the doll girl said noncommittally, as if she was saying this line according to the script. At the same time, she reached out and took out a thick large book beside her. Head books.

Spreading out the book, she glanced at it and pushed it over: "There are several tasks you can choose from now. You can take a look."

The holiness, who is clothed in thousands of stars and incarnated in the universe dimension, also just took one look and made a decision: "Then let's be the first."

Open up new territories, penetrate into the Olympus pantheon, investigate the recent movements of the Old Ones and Outer Gods... He can do all of these, but the risks are a bit high, so after thinking about it, he chose to play it safe at the beginning. , choose something decent to do.

First, you can take a look at the style of this troublemaker organization and learn from it.

Secondly, you can wait and see for a while to see what the future holds, instead of getting involved too deeply without knowing anything and then hanging on this tree without being able to get out.

Miss Doll disagreed, and asked coldly: "Okay, I'll file it now. Do you need any help?"

"No need." The Immortal replied.

His task is not difficult. It is to try to restore the situation in the war zone that has fallen into a disadvantage and let his side regain the upper hand... It seems to be very troublesome, but in fact it is just a repair job. A more accurate description is that it is secretly conducted espionage. Work.

Buy informants, collect information, carry out sabotage, fight guerrillas...

In any case, it is to interfere in secret without having to confront the enemy head-on.

He is also very experienced in such situations. After all, most of the struggles between beings in the upper realm are like this. After all, there are only a few who directly go into battle to defeat the dog's brain. Everyone is the chess player behind the chessboard, manipulating The chess pieces are in action.

As long as we seize the key entry point, a weak advantage can also become the key to reversing the situation, playing the role of making a huge difference.

For these methods, those in the upper-level field are all familiar with them, and they have even summed up a whole set of methods among themselves. Some of them are simply universal routines, which have been tried and tested and can be applied directly to basically any situation - —

That's why various phenomena of time travel and rebirth, inexplicable heavenly systems, and such things happen frequently in the infinite world.

The essence is that there are often powerful promoters behind the scenes who are dissatisfied with a certain world line and want to distort and tamper with the historical process and change the established cause and effect... As long as a small investment can often trigger extremely huge consequences. Butterfly effect, why not?

…

…

at the same time.

In an extremely distant space and time in the universe, the aimless Old Ones and Outer Gods have been expelled. The Olympus Protoss showed their power and majesty and won a great deal in this battle. Complete victory, but after the Titans, who were able to play with the galaxies and tear apart the universe, left, all that was left was a dead dimension.

Countless timelines fell into silence at the same time, completely losing their future, and encountering huge gaps in time and space.

Just like a book, the second half of the book was torn out directly, and it suddenly came to an end in the physical sense.

But just when everything was about to dissipate, in the past time, a shadow that did not belong to history was like a ghost, traveling through the gaps in time, quickly picking out several suitable world lines, and facing the selected one. The time node reaches out——

Time rippled, and shock waves oscillated and spread between timelines, adding small variables to the already established timeline.

…………

The third cantilever of the Milky Way.

On a muddy planet located in an ordinary star system, a blue gem-like celestial body moved quietly in the dark void.

"I...I am...reborn?"

After murmuring, Shen Hanri looked in disbelief at the boy with an immature face, messy hair and freckles in the mirror.

After a long time, he just looked away blankly and looked around subconsciously. He saw that the room was familiar and messy. Although it didn't look like a doghouse, the things and clothes were indeed scattered here and there. One by one, they were placed everywhere without any order.

The screen of the computer on the table glowed with cold technological light in a slightly dim environment, and there was a slight sound of a fan coming from the case next to it...

The curtains by the window were blown by the breeze. It was dusk outside, and the outline of the town was vague...

The streets outside the window have become dark, and there is only a ray of sunset on the horizon. Only the last faint sunset is left on the distant horizon...

He stared blankly at this familiar yet unfamiliar scene, then turned around and saw the bedroom door slightly closed. The sound from the TV in the living room outside was clearly visible through the door, as well as the faint voices of his parents. came.

For a moment, my eyes filled with tears, and the tears were unbearable!

Shen Hanri felt like he was almost out of breath.

This was a scene that he had seen countless times in the first half of his life and had become indifferent to it long ago. It was also a scene that he often dreamed about in the second half of his life, but could no longer reach out to touch, even in the last stage of his life when he was still struggling. , and the dreamy time that I miss so much.

At the same time, a trembling feeling emerged from deep in the bone marrow, sweeping through every cell in the body.

Reborn...

After his death, he did not usher in a complete eternal sleep, but was reborn and returned to this point in time unwillingly?

Shen Hanri couldn't believe such a ridiculous thing. It was not that he had never read novels. It was just that in the cruel post-apocalyptic era, everyone was struggling to survive on a planet that had turned into a dead wasteland, and faced high-energy radiation. , memetic viruses, parasitic parasites, out-of-control swarms, and other threats...

It was despair visible to the naked eye, with no days or nights.

No matter how you fight, the situation is getting worse. You are struggling to survive, but what you get is bad and worse. The fate of all things is only destined darkness, and there is no future.

In such a terrible living environment, everyone's spirit was crushed by the cruel reality, and they just lived in confusion. Even if they didn't know why they were living, they were unwilling to die. It was no different from the walking dead, so cruel. In a harsh environment, how can there be any room for fantasy survival?

The cold reality, the long despair, the darkness that cannot see the future...

Everything is enough to completely crush any unrealistic thoughts, just like a slave who has been stripped of all will and self in harsh slavery. He thinks about nothing and has no strength to think about it. He just keeps thinking about it year after year. One year, day after day, just passing by.

Until death comes, the end of life.

Therefore, at this time, Shen Hanri also felt that all this seemed too unreal.

A quarter of an hour later, he completed the basic verification, confirmed the current time, and then sat on the edge of the bed in the dim environment. He strengthened the psychological hints to himself over and over again, but his face was still changing in the darkness.

After a moment, he slowly raised his hand and looked at his palm.

During this period, my physical condition was so "weak" that it was pitiful.

Even if you don’t count the mechanical prostheses and neural implants that he has long been accustomed to, the external equipment that replaces parts and functions of his own organic tissue, just talking about the body itself——

Without the genetic tailoring technology of the recovery era, the human body is still a naturally evolved human body. Naturally, its life potential has not been released by bioengineering, and almost all organs still have redundant functions.

With such low vitality, let alone surviving in the dead wasteland of the post-apocalyptic era, I am afraid that they will not survive the post-apocalyptic era at all, and will directly die in the early stages of the catastrophe.

——There are not even cockroaches in the dead wasteland.

A sense of urgency emerged in Shen Hanri's heart. He had cursed countless times at bioengineering and mechanical implants. He felt that under the double reinforcement necessary for survival, he became more and more inhuman. , extremely eager to return to the original appearance.

But now that his dream has come true, he feels extremely uneasy.

I am reborn and returned to this point in time, but I have no power at all. Even self-preservation is a problem. Can anything really be changed?

"Calm down, there must be a way..."

He murmured to himself, thinking hard, searching his mind, trying to sort out a way out from the information he had.

Slowly, his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if there was a glimmer of light at the end of the darkness and despair.

…

…

This phenomenon is not unique.

The flames of war continued in the Greek world, spreading to one space-time dimension after another, shaking the foundation of the universe's dimensions. The vast sea of ​​​​stars was just the corner of the chessboard played by the great beings in the upper realm. The most terrifying thing was that such great beings The number is quite a lot.

It can even be said that there are many. After all, the infinite world is infinitely vast. Beyond the known is the unknown. Beyond the unknown, there will always be the unknown. Although the saints who transcend the human realm are noble, if we look at the absolutely infinite multiverse, then The cardinality is also infinite.

Because no matter how slim the probability is, if multiplied by infinity, the result is obviously insane.

In addition, the divine power has transcended unit time and space and radiated towards the multiple space-time structures. The immortals can rule all realms, the immortals can incarnate into billions, and the named ones are second only to omniscience and omnipotence. Now these terrifying existences are They entered the scene one after another and transformed the quadrants into battle lines.

There is often no direct force collision...

But neither time nor space can hinder them. History and the world line are weapons in their hands. Each drop represents the collision of "God's will" and forms the destiny trajectory of the universe.
