Chapter 24 The Age of Gods and Monsters

In many cases, life is so full of drama.

The destruction of the old world is accompanied by the birth of the new world, and the end of one era represents the opening of another era. As a product of the old world, the heavens bear the brunt of the impact.

After all, in a sense, the heavens still exist attached to this world.The world-shattering disaster lasted for a total of ten years, and Shi Bai also stayed in the heaven for ten years.

Because of the voluntary sacrifices of those long-lived species, within the allowable range... this world acquiesced in the existence of the heavens.

The new world was born on the remains of the old world, and compared to the past, new world rules have been derived on the basis of the original.

The derivation of the rules of the new world is a very long process. During this process, all the beings who hid in the heaven gradually fell into a long deep sleep one by one with the passage of time.

...and he was the only exception.

It seems that due to his own talent of immortality, he has no way to sleep like others.

In desperation, in order not to drag down the entire heaven because of himself, he left there after properly setting up Xiao Ye and Xiao Xi who were also in deep sleep.

After the entrance to the heavens was closed, and after decades of wandering aimlessly in this world, he finally thought of a good way.

Although I said that I can't fall asleep, I can still seal myself. In the new world where there is no existence that can communicate, in order to prevent my mind from gradually changing for no reason for a long time. Decaying and aging... He sealed himself up.

...and then woke up to find that he was almost buried.

"Era?"

After thinking for a while, the girl calmly shook her head.

"I can't remember clearly, since I was born with consciousness until now... now is the era between gods and monsters."

"Shouming and youkai... Another form of balance constructed by this world?"

Although he had some expectations in his heart before, after hearing the answer from the girl in front of him, Shi Bai sighed helplessly.

After personally experiencing the age of ancient mythology and witnessing the destruction of the world with his own eyes, the feelings in his heart are quite deep.

Balance exists among all things, and the most important thing that constitutes a world is balance.

Sometimes he would occasionally think about such a question in his heart, that is, where is the difference between the so-called monsters and gods?And how is the boundary between monsters and gods drawn?

But now, he already had some vague guesses in his mind.

If a world is divided into black and white as a whole, then the gods are in charge of the white side, while the monsters are in charge of the black side, and black and white are opposed to each other.

This is the difference between gods and monsters.

But if this is the case, problems will arise, such as those things about the future generations after the establishment of Gensokyo.

Gods need human faith to survive, while monsters need human fear to maintain their strength. This is a recognized thing in later generations... But it doesn't make sense now, just like what came first, the chicken or the chicken? It's the same philosophical question about the egg that came first.

Because now is the era of gods and monsters, human beings still do not exist in this world, and there is no place for weak human beings to survive in this world.

In this era, gods do not need so-called beliefs, and monsters do not need so-called fear. The gods of today are different from the gods of later generations, and so are the monsters of today and later generations.

So... what are the reasons for this?

After he has experienced so many things, and combined with the information in his memory, Shibai has been able to vaguely deduce something.

In the distant past, Yue Yejian moved to the moon with his relatives, the capital of the moon was built, and the civilization of the moon people began.After that, the race of gods who went to the moon became the Moon People.

This was the information on the materials he had seen before, and he couldn't figure it out at the time.

For example, as a god, Yue Yejian, why did he abandon the earth and go to the poor moon to build a new home from scratch?It doesn't make logical sense at all without a good reason to explain it.

But as long as these are considered together with the current situation, then the answer will be forthcoming.

This is the era between gods and monsters, because the nature of the power they possess is fundamentally different, so the so-called peace cannot coexist between them, and then war will follow.

But this war between gods and monsters is destined to be impossible to have a final winner. Once the delicate balance between them is broken again, this is probably the final outcome.

Moon Night will take the remaining gods to the moon to create a new home, and the monsters left over from the war will hide in the world...until the appearance of human beings.

The gods and monsters born after the appearance of human beings are the ones in his memory.

This era of gods and monsters, no matter how wonderful it was once, will eventually end just like that era of ancient mythology.

"So this is probably the difference between the so-called innate gods and acquired gods, and the main reason why human beings can gradually become the masters of the world step by step... Are you kidding me!?"

After roughly sorting out these things in his mind, Shi Bai's face suddenly turned black involuntarily.

He had personally experienced the serious consequences of a broken balance many years ago, and he managed to get through it with great difficulty. As a result, it is difficult for him to experience the scene of the destruction of the world again now. ?

"I've already answered so many of your questions, so now it's your turn to answer the questions in my heart, right?"

Just when he was struggling in his mind, the calm voice of the girl in front of him came over and interrupted his thinking.

"...Ah, all right, if you want to ask anything, just ask."

Having a headache, he tapped his head with his hands, Shi Bai picked up the glass of water on the table and drank it down in one gulp.

"My name is Shibai, the last member of the Eastern God Clan in the ancient mythology era... What's your name?"

"East Protoss..."

Frowning slightly, the girl spoke calmly.

"My name... Yayi Eirin."

Chapter 25 Yayi Yonglin

Quiet bamboo forest.

"...Ba, Bayi Yonglin!?"

After hearing the girl's words in front of him, Shi Bai immediately turned back tactically, and at the same time, his eyes subconsciously swept over the poor girl in front of him.

"Any questions?"

Probably as if aware of something, Bayi Yonglin frowned slightly, and her tone seemed to become a little colder.

"Cough, cough cough...it's nothing, anyway, you dug me out, if you want to ask anything, feel free to ask."

Clenching one hand into a fist and putting it next to his mouth, he coughed a few times in embarrassment, and Shi Bai sat up a little bit upright.

"Tell me, what do you want to know from me?"

"What kind of era is the age of ancient mythology?"

The tone slowed down a little, and Yayi Yonglin spoke.

"About that era, can you tell me a little bit about it? Why are there so few things left over from that era? Why did that era end in the end?...Everything, the trouble is with me Say it."

"The age of ancient mythology...why do you want to know this?"

Raising his eyebrows, Shi Bai asked the other party back.

"Because of the war between gods and monsters."

There was no intention of concealing it, Bayi Yonglin said it quite frankly.

"Now is the era between gods and monsters. No matter which side wants to do its best to defeat the other side, under the premise that the strengths of the two sides are almost equal, it is very common to seek help from outside forces. matter."

"...So the idea of ​​a third-party force capable of intervening in a war and changing the direction of the war has been brought back to the last era?"

After the interface continued, Shi Bai had a noncommittal expression on his face.

"But unfortunately, basically everything about that era has perished with the destruction of the previous world."

"The...destruction of the world?"

Bayi Yonglin couldn't help being slightly stunned.

"Yeah, I guess it won't be long before this era of gods and monsters will come to an end just like the era of ancient mythology..."

Yawning very tiredly, Shi Bai raised his head, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the sky that was heavily covered by the lush bamboo forest.

"...In short, the basic situation is like this, and you don't even think about finding foreign aid, because you can't find it at all, just let things take their course."

"The battle between gods and monsters has been going on for countless years. In this protracted war, who do you think will be the final winner?"

After a moment of silence, Bayi Yonglin asked such a question.

"Winner? There has never been a so-called winner in war. The final result is just to see who loses the most and who loses the least..."

Smiling, Shi Bai looked at Bayi Yonglin in front of him.

"By the way, you belong to the side of the gods, right?"

"No, my current situation is neutral."

Picking up the thing called the alarm clock on the table, Bayi Yonglin shook her head slightly, her tone seemed a little low, and she spoke in a low voice.

"I hate war, and things other than war, otherwise I wouldn't have been living in seclusion here. The era you live in...wasn't it really destroyed by war?"

"That's right, are you trying to prevent the war from going on by looking for evidence in this regard?"

Quickly guessing what the girl in front of him was thinking, Shi Bai shook his head.

"It was not the war that led to the destruction of that era, but the hard-won peace after the war. This is like a balance with weights on both sides. When the weights on both sides are equal, the balance can still be maintained. Balance, but once the balance is lost, it can be regarded as a disaster for any weight."

Looking at the frowning and silent girl in front of him, Shi Bai continued to speak.

"So, don't think about it..."

"What are weights and scales? A weapon?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Bayi Yonglin suddenly raised her head and interrupted his words.

"........."
