Ahoyin and Kefan, they didn't become monsters... Did they stick to themselves all along? Or were they just contaminated and woke up at the last moment?
No... No, it sounds like this was premeditated...
She mentioned "revelation", what is "revelation"?
At the end, she only mentioned that Haradini would survive... Was this something the three Si Chen had discussed?
Damn, what on earth were they thinking!
Hitzfeld could no longer bear it, so she controlled her spirit to fly up and overlook the port city from above.
Yes.
This is Ceres Continent.
The ruins where they landed in reality.
But now, it is still prosperous. The dilapidated streets are neatly paved with stone bricks, the buildings on the street are specially painted with paint, and billboards and chandeliers can be seen everywhere, fully interpreting the vitality of life.
It is hard to imagine that it will disappear in just a few hundred years.
Hitzfeld ignored the sight. She rose higher and higher, until she finally saw the tall tower standing among the buildings on the seaside.
A figure was standing on the beacon tower made of white stones.
I couldn't see her exact face, but I was sure that she was looking towards the west.
So that's your thorn too...
Hitzfeld looked on in fascination.
sunset.
The dancing hair is like golden flames.
Chapter 39: The Second Hundred Years (Part 2)
Slowly floating into the beacon tower, Hitzfeld stood aside, quietly watching the summer solstice.
She now has complicated feelings towards this person. She is suspicious of her but also moved by her sincere emotions. She is now more willing to believe that Ke Fan left with his own reasons, and all of this is for the "revelation" mentioned in the monologue.
"Over there." Ke Fan suddenly pointed to the western horizon, "That's where we were born."
Did she find me?
After a brief moment of tension, Hitzfeld turned his head and saw Emera walking up the stairs with a steady and steady pace.
Qiu Zhi Sichen...they did leave together. And the key point is that it seems that these two people don't seem to have any conflicts?
After Emera came up, she still didn't say anything. Her eyes were still closed. She just came to Ke Fan silently and stood side by side with her, with her face facing the direction of her finger.
"I lit a mechanical sun on my eighteenth birthday." Ke Fan continued, "My mother was very happy when she saw it, and helped me store it in my shadow. She said that if I were in danger one day, the power in my shadow would come out to protect me. She also taught me the tricks and asked me to practice controlling my shadow more."
"Isn't it strange? I was born with her flame, but she wants me to work hard on my shadow... I didn't understand what this meant for a long time. It wasn't until today that I realized that it might be her great power - she had seen something with her eyes a long time ago."
Emera stood quietly by without saying a word, and no one knew whether she was listening.
Hitzfeld learned her current state through guessing Emera and her. She knew how difficult it was to maintain this state. It was even more difficult to imagine how difficult it was for Emera to maintain this state for more than a hundred years without the help of the Divine Eye.
However, if that is the case, then what I am seeing and hearing now should be the same as Emera, right?
It was in this state that I observed the world with both human and divine eyes, and what I saw and heard about "Ke Fan" was extremely normal.
She was still in human form, without any distortion on her body. Even the tower platform where she lay was made of twisted tentacles, and it was still slowly moving under her feet. She herself had not changed at all, and even looked more holy because of the contrast.
Ke Fan and Emera, only these two people are normal in the eyes of God.
This seems to indirectly prove that they are all "pure"?
But this would make the speculation about the death knell and Ahoyen's death invalid...
Thinking of the word "revelation" in the monologue, Hitzfeld frowned and began to wonder if Ahoin had died deliberately for this "revelation" plan.
It looks a lot like Emera is pushing for Revelation.
She obviously knows more than anyone else, whether it was when she took Haratini to seek refuge, or now when she followed Kefan to Ceres. If you ignore the fact that she always "doesn't see, hear, or speak" - just look at what she does, you will find that all the story lines are connected by Emera.
So is there a possibility that the "revelation" was made by her?
Maybe this was a secret mission given to her by Amen-Harwin alone, or maybe she had done it on her own... Maybe she had talked to Ahoin and Kefan in private, and the two sisters and her younger sister were determined to sacrifice themselves to ensure the survival of "Haratini".
...Is this possible?
Thinking carefully about the first time he entered this secret history and watched Haratini and Ahoyen meeting on the top platform of the Holy Oak Palace, Hitzfeld felt that it was not very similar.
Ahoyne did not show any sign of seeking death at the time. She was so gentle and loved her three sisters almost equally. If she had been asked to do so, she would definitely have said, "Let me do it" and "Sacrificing only me is enough."
Could it be that they have disagreements among themselves regarding "revelation"?
"Revelation" requires sacrifice, and the Green Dragon Queen sacrificed herself to protect her sisters?
But what is the purpose of "revelation"?
Each of the four Sichen has a flaw in their character. Emera is taciturn and autistic, Haradini is cold and slow, Kefan is proud and overbearing, and Ahoyin is too gentle and indecisive...
But they always consider the overall situation, just as they will gather together for the four-season plan, overcome their dissatisfaction with others and work hard - they will not frown when their dedication is really needed, and they know very well what counts as "dedication."
So is saving Rahadini considered a sacrifice?
Why was Haradini listed as a candidate for rescue?
If we follow the idea that older sisters take care of younger sisters, and older people protect younger ones, the one who should be protected and survive the most is the youngest sister, Emera.
Is it out of utilitarianism?
Spring can heal wounds, but the spring breeze cannot extinguish disasters.
Xia Tian can fight against disasters, but the effect of two exploding natural energies colliding together is even more devastating.
The fire of autumn only brings about abundance, it has no effect on disaster.
Only the cold winter - the extremely low temperature that seeps in silently can freeze the disaster.
Whether it's an earthquake or a tsunami, a hurricane or a volcanic eruption, there is nothing that the Winter Dragon cannot freeze.
Oh, and she can’t stop time.
So they had to buy her some time...
Hitzfeld felt that this was most likely part of the truth of "revelation", but what she didn't understand the most was the ultimate effect that "revelation" could ideally achieve.
Keeping only the most important Haradini alive can indeed preserve civilization to a certain extent.
However, this is just a way to survive. The alternating cold weather is also an extremely harsh living environment for humans. Under such circumstances, the entire society is lucky to be able to maintain its stability and not regress. There is no possibility of any progress.
Moreover, this would put all hopes and choices in the hands of Haratini alone. Isn't the risk too high?
Examples in real life also illustrate this point - it is very likely that Haratini was provoked to betray the Kingdom of God, the earth lost the protection of the last Si Chen, the concept of time began to become disordered, those suppressed chaotic beliefs began to gradually rise, and it took only a short time for them to wreak havoc in various countries.
This is the doomsday scene mentioned by Sisyphus...it is "thousands of miles of wasteland", "skeletons everywhere", "the city has become a big cemetery", "people either fall into the abyss because of evil beliefs, or go completely crazy in resisting the torture of dreams".
The harm caused by the evil worship was not curbed until Saint Fili found the Grey Mist Temple through the "Book of Ur", dragged his body back after enduring the Curse of Confusion, and wove lies like the "Mechanical Sun Goddess", turning most of them into unbelievers in the true sense.
Then came the rise of Torredor.
The Mechanical Sun Cult, the Tree People, large and small community troops... they gathered around King Toredor and helped him recover the eroded land step by step.
Then, through the seafaring adventure of Mar-Bakinsa, the Holy Stone Tablet was brought back from overseas, and from the stone tablet, the imitation technology, the manufacturing technology of golden flint, the blood spirit technique and other simplified versions of flesh and blood spells were obtained.
This led to the establishment of Sarah.
This country, which had been resurrected from the dead of the old era, finally gained a firm foothold under the impact of the gray fog.
Right…?
Therefore, the reason why the outside world, the real world, is what it is today, should be attributed to Sanfeli.
It's King Torredo.
They are the Ji Yang Cult, the Tree People, and those founding generals and warriors.
From navigators like Mar-Bakinsa to Golden Knight Carl.
And countless Casimirs, countless detectives and police officers whose names she couldn't even remember.
She even felt she had the right to say, "It was also thanks to Ezun Hitzfeld."
Is not it?
Judging only from the law of actual development, my contribution is greater than... I dare not say greater than the four of you put together. After all, you have indeed supported it for three hundred years. Without you, there would be no Namibia today.
but!
I'm going to say that the effect is greater than that caused by this "Revelation" plan, is that okay?
There's no way I can be less than a traitor, right?
So Hitzfeld really couldn't understand... If the three Sichens did it on purpose, deliberately sacrificing themselves to save Haradini, why didn't they discuss it with her? So that she was so deeply stimulated that she fell directly?
If the "Revelation" plan fails, then all three people will have died in vain. Wouldn't it be better for them to stick together and fight together from the beginning?
There are too many misunderstandings, and this logic doesn't make sense.
She couldn't possibly think that Ahoin, Kefan, and Emera would not understand the pros and cons of this, so she was more inclined to believe that the "Revelation" plan was not as simple as she saw now.
In other words, its real goal should not just be to protect Haratini.
It has greater aspirations.
If successful, it can even be the final word!
"Then that's the only one..."
Thinking of this, and combining it with all the experiences in the past, Hitzfeld gradually had a guess in his heart... It was extremely outrageous from any angle, but it did make some sense when he thought about it carefully.
"So, the guy in reality must also be her target..."
"Well……"
Time started to speed up.
Hitzfeld noticed that Emera had left, and she didn't even notice how she left.
Except for her, the "visitor from another time and space" and Ke Fan, no one else in the port city seemed to be able to see her. She had seen Emera walking barefoot on the street more than once, and despite her figure and beauty, everyone turned a blind eye.
Kefan began to integrate the human kingdoms on this continent under the name of this city, "King's Port". She had already tamed the owners of King's Port, the Brende family, and after agreeing to name the new alliance "Babis-Brend", this group of people knelt at her feet in ecstasy and swore to give their lives for the summer sun.
The process was uneventful.
The messengers changed horses and rode to various countries with orders. Wherever they went, the scorching summer sun followed.
No resistance, no non-cooperation.
Especially those kingdoms along the seaside, they had suffered from the gray fog before Ke Fan arrived, and knew what it felt like to be tortured by nightmares and afraid to sleep. Xia Yang's arrival dispelled the fog, and they were too busy kneeling to welcome him, so there was no way they could object or be dissatisfied.
For the people of Thres, this was an unprecedentedly powerful alliance.
No one had ever united them like this in the past. They even thought that they were abandoned, exiled, and garbage of the new world. So it was foreseeable how tears would well up in their eyes when the Summer Hour announced that it would come to save them.
The gray fog began to brew a greater invasion.
According to Hitzfeld's estimation, around 115 years after the folding, a huge dark cloud gathered above the entire Thres Plate, and it began to rain without any warning.
This is a corrosive and melting rain. When the raindrops fall on the back of a bird, they can burn a big hole directly. When they fall on the ground, they can corrode to a depth of hundreds of meters.
Mortals could not resist such an attack, and affected by the rainstorm, the people of Ceres fell into great fear.
And because of the attraction of fear, the invisible and intangible dream world began to approach the ground.
In the end, it was Ke Fan who solved the problem. She raised six suns made of machines from her own shadow, which together with the suns in the sky made a total of seven. They took turns scorching the sky day after day, not only drying up the falling acid rain, but also drying up the giant cloud that was spewing acid rain.
Next, 127 years.
Because of the alternation of day and night with seven suns, and the existence of the summer sun meant that there was only summer in Ceres Continent, the continued exposure to the sun began to cause serious consequences - the teams sent by the Brund family to dig wells in the interior lost contact one after another, and even the exploration teams never returned.
People paid a lot of money to hire the bravest and most experienced warriors to investigate the outpost, but only three people survived. It was from them that they learned the truth about the evil spirits' invasion again: a curse began to spread on the ground, and if people were exposed to the summer sun for a long time, they would melt into a foul-smelling monster similar to a mixture of oil and water, like mud!
The drilling outpost is already full of these monsters! Sometimes they move separately, and sometimes they gather together to form giant muds. It is simply not something that mortals can handle, not to mention that the source of the curse is directly pointed at Xia Yang!
Faced with threats and restless public opinion, Ke Fan could only put away the other six mechanical yangs. While slowing down the daytime temperature, he personally went to the outpost and screened the entire continent in less than a day, killing all the monsters with the "curse factor".
Then in 139, Ke Fan was assassinated.
The assassin was a former human king who was seduced and corrupted by evil. He almost blinded Ke Fan's eye, but luckily she reacted quickly and the gray fog prevented her from succeeding.
Although she was not hurt, the impact of this incident was too bad. Some people in Thres got the news and realized that "even such an alliance was not stable", and some of their beliefs began to waver.
