In everyone's understanding, gods die on the earth, and their bodies grow into world trees. Their power is dispersed in different souls. Therefore, the soul is the carrier. Once it disappears, the power that has nowhere to place will follow the obsession. Inject it into an object, and a relic is born.
Until Ethan discovers the existence of Jiang Chenchuan, the soul can be transferred, which is a breakthrough in the traditional inherent view.
Just like Jiang Chenchuan's original body, which seems to be alive and dead, the World Tree may... be the same existence.
In other words, the gods do not die, but live in another way.
"That's... God!"
Ethan's voice was trembling, not out of fear, but out of excitement that was hard to suppress.
In the blazing furnace, every reaction of the elements can stimulate the light of the magic circle. Thick smoke is spewed out from the sky. Every time he breathes, he feels like particles are drilling into his lungs. Jiang Chenchuan couldn't help but cough a few times, but Ethan on the side had no reaction.
"The reason why I brought you down here on a whim is just in time for the armor change and machine test, so that you can experience my childhood dream."
There was no need to wait for Jiang Chenchuan to ask. Following Ethan's words, the furnace's mechanism was turned on. There were rising fireworks. More magic circles lit up. The scorching high temperature was isolated, and rhythmic sounds were knocked. It moved, causing the earth to tremble slightly.
This is what they felt above just now. The roaring in their ears continued, and the heavy chains began to rotate. Through the sight blocked by the iron bars, there was red and golden molten iron flowing along the fixed channel.
The violent knocking sounded again, and the entire furnace began to peel off, and what was trapped inside was a giant-like mechanical monster.
"Tear down the remains of the gods..."
Jiang Chenchuan slowly spoke out childish words that everyone laughed at as wishful thinking.
"With the power of mechanical technology, this is the courage of mortals to fight against gods."
Listening to Ethan's words, Jiang Chenchuan felt a strange feeling in his heart. He could understand the madness, and even wanted to reach out and applaud Ethan's dream.
Both his concepts and the giant machines he created are filled with imagination that transcends cognition.
【free】
Chaotic neutrality, liberalism, do whatever you want, do whatever you want.
At this moment, he seemed to understand the charm of Sequence Six, which was full of chaos and madness. Ethan was the ultimate embodiment of freedom.
At this time, they even had to look up at this mechanical product. Through the alchemical formation that isolated everything, they watched the researchers busy back and forth. They wore protective clothing to prevent high-temperature burns and tested various values of the giant.
"At the beginning of this project, it was just a beating mechanical heart. Later, it slowly turned into this."
Ethan supported the railing with both hands and stretched half of his body to explain.
"You will be hunted by the Queen to the ends of the earth."
"Hahahaha, I knew you would help me keep the secret. How can I say that you are really awkward...cute?"
Ethan suddenly laughed. He was like a child who discovered someone else's secret. He looked openly secretive. Then, his expression changed again. He turned his head and stared at Jiang Chenchuan and said.
"It's not order, and it doesn't look like freedom, but... it looks like a trait of resistance."
"clever."
There’s nothing to argue about. With Ethan’s IQ, it’s normal to guess.
Ethan turned his head and stared at his research results, with a kind of obsession in his eyes. He slowly said:
"Keep secrets from each other."
I don’t know what the researchers did. The mechanical giant raised its arm little by little. Suddenly, a pipe turned from dark to red. There was a burst of confusion. The giant lowered its arm again. Ethan Detective He yelled something out of his body and directed the assistant-like person to record the corresponding data.
"However, you have also seen that the research has not been completely successful. Even if it can move, it cannot leave the ground."
Speaking of this, the confident Ethan sounded a little disappointed and frustrated.
"What's the reason?"
Jiang Chenchuan asked curiously.
"The power source is insufficient. With current technology, if we get rid of the energy of the World Tree, many mechanical projects will not be able to operate."
When Ethan said this, his expression was a little subtle. In fact, he knew very well in his heart that Yinglan Beier was now too dependent on World Tree energy. Once the energy was lost, the entire country would stagnate and might even go backwards.
Finally, Ethan took Jiang Chenchuan to visit his research room. On the table was the report he had stayed up late to finish. Everyone was like a gear in a machine, doing their own work and playing an irreplaceable role. effect.
After walking around underground, the two went back upstairs together. They found Reina and Toma in a corner. When they met, Toma looked pitiful and tearful, talking to Reina. Explain the inner meaning of the mantra.
"Ethan! Come help me!"
Toma rushed towards the two of them, leaving Reina to study carefully. It wasn't that Toma didn't know how to do it, it was just that he had some alchemy knowledge and it was not easy to explain to Reina.
Ethan arrived just in time. Just as Reina was about to ask something, she felt some strange lines appear in her sight, as if she had come into contact with something huge, that feeling of insignificance...
Turning his head to look at Jiang Chenchuan, this kind of energy, like spiritual vision, was even more obvious in Jiang Chenchuan's body.
She seemed to be much more aware of her surroundings.
Normally, the energy of a dead thing like this would require her to deliberately mobilize her power, but now, she can feel it naturally through the human body's reaction.
"Are you planning to go back?"
Since Ethan deliberately avoided him, Reina did not intend to study it in detail. The right sense of proportion was her accomplishment as a noble.
But as for whether she would secretly go to Atlas Alchemy Institute to investigate, it is difficult to say clearly. After all, not even the museum can stop her from seeking knowledge.
"It's almost time to leave."
Jiang Chenchuan nodded and responded.
Ethan and Thomas sent the two of them out of the gate of the Alchemy Academy. The school emblem representing "equality" was shining brightly in the sun. The coachman finally ended the long wait. Jiang Chenchuan reached out his hand like a gentleman and helped Reina to step onto the door. carriage.
She turned back and said goodbye to Ethan and Thomas gracefully. At this moment, a dirty little boy stumbled from the other end of the street with staggering steps.
He stopped in front of Ethan and suddenly let out a harsh cry:
"White mist! Deadly white mist!"
He grabbed his already messy head, as if he was crazy, but when he turned around, he saw Jiang Chenchuan, and was stunned again. Just when everyone looked confused, he made a splash...
He knelt at Jiang Chenchuan's feet.
