Chapter 10: The World of Hearts
Hao Qi's secret really shocked Colora and the Skeleton Knight. Although they had already had countless speculations, even more exaggerated speculations, such as the manifestation of the abyss, no matter how exaggerated it is, it can't compare to the exaggeration that Hao Qi said. This is a truly exaggeration beyond their imagination limits.
From another completely different world, everything in that world is different from this world, it is a world dominated by warriors, and that world does not have the so-called secluded world, spiritual world, or abyss. It is a world where extraordinary people live in a mixture of ordinary people, unlike this world, extraordinary people are far away from ordinary people.
And there are many differences. Although it still needs to be carefully questioned and verified, Colora and the Skeleton Knight have already believed that what Hao Qi said is the truth. Even if it sounds incredible, this is probably the truth.
After Hao Qi finished speaking, Colora and the Skeleton Knight were silent. They looked at each other for several times, as if they had seen some determination and decision in each other's eyes. Only then did Colora say to Hao Qi: "So what do you want to know?"
"All." Hao Qi didn't hesitate and said directly: "I want to know everything!"
"This is also a very long story..."
Then, Hao Qi knew the current origin of this world, or the origin of the Hand of God...
That happened more than a thousand years ago...
Once upon a time, the extraordinary people in this world, that is, the witches and magicians who use magic, did not live alone away from the crowd, but lived openly in the crowd gathering place. At that time, they would not call magic magic, but called it rune science, which is similar to the amulet that Colora was about to make for Gus and others. The graphics, images, symbols, runes on it can be used through special combinations and calculations, and then special abilities can be used. Things like talismans were similar. In that era, countless people could easily create them. They could even create rune flying devices flying above a height of ten thousand meters, rune diving devices that sneak into the depths of the sea, and even various incredible rune creations.
Through the virtual rune network, these magicians with stronger mental power than ordinary people can use special power. It was their most glorious era and the peak of civilization.
In that era, there were a large number of countries that were attacking each other based on rune science. Because the powerful rune weapons were used in wars, they not only killed a large number of human beings, but also directly destroyed the environment. It may take hundreds of years to recover. Even for victory, more terrifying rune weapons were created. These weapons even reversed the life factors of human beings and produced various terrifying monsters.
In such a chaotic war, a hero emerged from nowhere. He and his closest brother appeared in the troubled times. He had peerless force, and the armor and weapons made through rune technology, as well as the horses optimized by rune technology, can be invincible on the battlefield. His brothers have unparalleled wisdom. Not only are the strategy of war, but also proficient in the deceit of the people, but also have a very deep understanding of the way to save lives.
With the efforts of these two people, the heroic status created by the world sometimes took countless huge costs. Finally, they unified the entire continent and unified all human beings in the same country. This is also the only unified country for human beings. The hero who ascended the throne and the wise man assisted him in managing the entire country.
Such days continued until the two gradually grew old. They began to worry about some things, worried that after they died, the country would be divided, and worried that humans would rely on rune technology to self-destruct. After all, at that time, there were already many things like nuclear weapons that Hao Qi knew that could destroy humans countless times.
Because of this, they gathered the most outstanding rune scientists of all mankind and began to study how to change all this. Colora didn't know what happened after that, and the Skeleton Knight who seemed to know shut up. This seemed to involve some of the privacy of the Skeleton Knight, and Hao Qi was really hard to ask.
In short, many things happened in this study, including rebellion, riots, and grudges between brothers. Some were praised to heaven, some were knocked down into the abyss, and the whole world even changed. In the most violent event, the Eagle of Light received flesh this time. At that time, the first hand of God appeared, and the hand of God also received flesh...
"...It was a huge disaster, which triggered the 'Big Bang'. Although it was called an explosion, it was actually an event that was more terrifying than an explosion. The map of the whole world even undergoes a drastic change. In the 'Big Bang', the basic rules of this world were changed the most tremendously. The soul of life was from nothing to something, and the immaterial world began to appear. At the same time, billions of creatures affected by the 'Big Bang' gathered together and settled into the deepest part of the fantasy. The abyss emerged. The unparalleled wise man sacrificed his humanity, sacrificed everything he as human beings and the most important things, transformed from a human into a demon, became the first hand of the god, and became the apostle of the abyss. From that moment on, the whole world changed drastically."
Hao Qi was silent for a long time after listening to the words of the Skeleton Knight, and then he said to Colora: "So what about the problem of the witch and the magician? Where does your inheritance come from?"
Colora said: "We do come from the descendants of rune scientists, but we are no longer rune scientists, because since the big drama of change a thousand years ago, the whole world has changed. Although the power of rune still exists, the use of rune power involves the spirit and soul. After the spiritual world, the secluded world, and the abyss deep in the secluded world, any spirit and soul that exceeds the limits of mortals will be involved and interfered by the spirit world, the secluded world, and the abyss, which is a fatal thing for rune scientists."
"Oh? What will happen?" Hao Qi asked strangely.
Colora was silent for a moment before she smiled bitterly: "You will sink, change, or be pulled directly into the deepest part, in the state of a living person's body, and then live or die... In fact, people who can become rune scientists are basically extremely powerful existences. During the initial period of the "Big Bang", almost 99% of rune scientists died because of the pulling and interference of the spiritual world, the secluded world, and the abyss. The living people gradually came up with the rules, which led to the later witches and magicians."
"First of all, we must stay away from the prosperous and common people's concentration. It doesn't matter if the small villages outside the forest are small, but if the lustful and chaotic spirit of ordinary mortals in large cities with too many people can easily pollute our spiritual resistance, weaken our spiritual resistance, and no longer fight against the malice deep in the secluded world."
"Secondly, we gradually learned how to travel safely in the secluded world and the spiritual world like applying mental power and soul. Meditation and calmness are the secrets. Of course, it also includes the combination of rune technology and magic technology. In fact, a large number of the strongest rune scientists did not completely disappear. Some of their essence changed to regular existences in the spiritual world and the spiritual world. For example, the King of Four is the representative of it. In addition to the power of rune technology, our magic also borrows the power of these existences in the secluded world and the spiritual world."
Afterwards, Colora talked about the secrets of the witch and magician system, but generally speaking, they are the applications of mental power and soul. Rune technology has an incredible resistance to development due to the birth of the ghost world and the existence of the abyss. It is already a very amazing thing to be able to retain the research of the last thousand years. Even so far, one or two percent of the research has not been achieved, so it is basically impossible to develop new things.
Hao Qi suddenly thought of something, and he said, "I know that those apostles are the men of the Hand of God. Most of them were humans before, and then became apostles under extreme emotions. Is this considered more than the spirit and soul of mortals, and then attracted the attention of the abyss?"
Colora looked at the Skeleton Knight, and Colora nodded and said, "It can be considered half of it. After all, even in extreme cases, it is almost impossible to attract the gaze of the Secret Realm, the Spirit Realm, or the Abyss, because it is still too weak for us. However, with the help of the Hand of God, it is different. The Hand of God has specially made a thing for this type of ordinary mortals, which is a creation called Behelet. Ordinary mortals holding this thing, as long as their emotions accumulate to the limit, and their mental state and soul state are transformed into extreme properties, they can temporarily break the boundaries between reality and illusion, let the Hand of God temporarily descend to the material world, and then turn these ordinary people into apostles."
Colora looked at the Skeleton Knight again, and the Skeleton Knight said: "I have been following the apostles, tracking the Hand of God for these years, and making a lot of guesses and inferences with my old friends before. Although it is incredible, we have obtained the possibility of an answer..."
"Perhaps, in that 'big explosion' a thousand years ago, the world has been replaced and changed, and this world is no longer the world before..."
"The world now is probably the world of the heart... No matter how desperate or clear we are, we may be living in another mind that exists or does not exist."
