Vulcan still has some doubts about his plan:
"But now our duel with the Federation has also failed. We originally did not intend to use their agreement with Atlantis to force them to send the Shenxiao ginseng station, but now because of the victory of Ma En, who has Shenxiao's instructions behind his back. Ivanie.
"Since this mortal was arranged by Shenxiao, shouldn't we kill him? And he has also shown a talent that is not inferior to that of Ivanni. We should get rid of such a human being as soon as possible, if you are willing. ,I can……"
The sun god replied:
"He is indeed a mortal with some talents, and there is a slight possibility that he will become an enemy that needs to be taken care of in the future, but if we attack him at will now, it is more likely that our intentions will be exposed and our plan to deal with Shenxiao will be shelved.
"Even if this mortal's talent increases several times, it's not worth doing anything to him."
Vulcan continued:
"But he once attacked us in the Southern Federation and interfered with our ceremony. And I have personally seen this Ma En. I think he is indeed a possibility..."
The sun god glanced at him lightly:
"I know your purpose is not to eradicate any talented mortals, and I don't care what your purpose is. If you really want to take action against this mortal, you can, but at least you have to wait until Shenxiao is imprisoned by us again. "
Kagami lowered his head slightly, but this answer was enough for him.
He is indeed not thinking about the gods as he said. Although there are not many mortals with talents comparable to Ma En, they are actually not very few. Those without the protection of forces can naturally find a few.
But among the many inhuman forces, the gods are actually the ones who have little interest in weakening humans. If there happens to be a conflict, they don't mind killing a few mortals who don't believe in them, but they usually don't take the initiative to do so. For this kind of thing, after all, their relationship with humans is not completely hostile. If possible, they would prefer to recruit such mortals to their side.
Naturally, he had his own reasons for repeatedly asking to kill Ma En. Since it has been determined that Ma En was the leader of the Salvation Alliance who killed his people in Gowen State, it means that the castle connected to the Titan ruins is there. In his hands.
And not long ago, Vulcan personally went to Gowen State to look at the castle. Now it seems to be under some kind of special seal, and he has not heard that any Titan relics are missing. It is estimated that the members of the Salvation Alliance may still seal it. got up.
In other words, Ma En probably doesn't know what is underneath. As long as he doesn't disturb him, there will probably be no problem. But it is not a good thing to keep this thing in his hands all the time, and he can't rob it by force, otherwise it will It will attract other people's attention.
The most important thing is not to attract the attention of the sun. He knows what he is doing secretly, but he does not know that what he is hiding is the intersection leading to the Titan ruins. This is why he lets Poseidon, who has no dealings with the sun, watch the castle. .
If he wanted to get the castle under his care again, he had to find a way to get it back without disturbing Marne and others, and the easiest way to achieve this goal was to kill Marne.
If he can get the support of the sun, it will be very simple to kill Ma En and get back the castle, but the current situation is actually not unacceptable to him. Although Ma En has federal protection, it is still a bit difficult to deal with, but he will always A way can be found.
And he also has plenty of time. He can wait patiently for the opportunity to appear, but he really can't...
He can also wait until Ma En dies of old age.
"Then what should we do now?" Vulcan asked again.
The Sun God looked up to the south:
"The current Federation and Atlantis have reached peace, which means that they have established communication. If the Sea Tribe hiding in the deep trench suddenly riots, the Federation will also get the news."
After hearing this, Vulcan seemed to have thought of something:
"You want to cause them to riot and attack Atlantis, put them into a predicament that they cannot handle alone, and force the Federation, which no longer needs to support them, to intervene?"
The sun god replied:
"You are already very close, but just like this, the Federation cannot let Shenxiao take action. What I want is not to let the Sea Tribe attack Atlantis, but to destroy Atlantis. Only when the Federation Only when there is no other choice will Shen Xiao be allowed to take action.
"At that time, they will either send Shenxiao or wait for humankind to become extinct."
Vulcan now had new doubts in his heart:
"But the Sea Tribe has not been able to break through Atlantis's defenses for so many years. How can we let them destroy Atlantis?"
The sun god asked:
"Do you know what the Sea Clan is?"
Vulcan shook his head:
"I heard from Poseidon and several other gods that they are not living creatures and are quite dangerous. They have the potential to destroy the entire world, but I don't understand their nature."
Although he has a long life as a god, among the many gods, only the sun has never "sleeped". He is as eternal as the sun itself, and only he knows these ancient secrets and truths best.
Of course, this is also because the secrets of the Sea Clan are not of concern to the gods, so the God of Fire has never taken the initiative to ask about them in the past. This is not something that needs to be concealed. The God of the Sun will naturally tell them when they need to know.
"If you have known about it, you may know that the sea tribe has a very terrifying growth ability." The Sun God said, "Atlantis also has several principles specifically designed to deal with them. The warriors there will turn into Sea water, to ensure that these things do not eat flesh and blood, the Atlantean sea monsters use dark magic to cover their bodies, and these are all to prevent them from becoming stronger.
"If these special measures are not strictly followed, the Sea Tribe will grow enough to kill and destroy Atlantis after just a few large-scale battles. In fact, the original Sea Tribe did not even have Level V individuals.
"It was Atlantis and their wars that shaped them into what they are today. They can imitate other creatures through 'observation' in various senses, and continue to become stronger to ensure that they can compete with their enemies. Maintaining balance."
Vulcan asked doubtfully:
"Then if Atlantis doesn't take the initiative to fight them, won't they become stronger?"
The sun god replied:
"Atlantis has never taken the initiative to fight with them. They have always been forced to fight, because if the outside world does not stop them, these things they call sea people will expand in other forms. This is why the ocean itself must Reasons for building Atlantis.
"Although Atlantis created a group of horrific monsters, they actually avoided the possibility of something much worse."
Vulcan said:
"Then why not destroy them completely as soon as possible."
The Sun God gave a very reasonable answer:
“Because it can’t be done.
"I once discussed the possibility of doing this with Ocean when I was most powerful, but in the end I did not make this choice. The Atlanteans also made similar mistakes, which also led to them being able to directly Grow out of the rock.”
Vulcan then asked:
"Then what's their limit? They can't become infinitely stronger, right?"
The sun god looked regretful:
"You are right. It was true when I was at my strongest, but for those of us who are imprisoned now, they do not have any upper limit for their growth. If we provide them with moderate stimulation, it only takes a few decades for them to grow." Thousands of Level V individuals can be born in just one hundred years, and Level VI individuals can be born in just one hundred years."
After hearing this, Vulcan found it difficult to accept this fact:
"How is that possible? What are these things?"
The sun god finally answered his question:
"They are a self-protection measure. You should have seen that there are many creatures in this world that can adapt to the environment. In fact, this idea probably originated from this kind of thing in the first place. Those sea tribes that are similar to humanoids are just their appearance. That’s all.
"You know that mortals today believe that life was born from the ocean, right?"
Vulcan nodded:
"I've heard of this theory, and I think you're the only one among the gods who knows the truth."
The sun god replied:
"The truth is very simple. This is the fact. It is also the few correct speculations made by mortals about the ancient times. However, their understanding is somewhat biased. The correct statement is that most of the life on the planet Orunze was created by the Ocean itself.
“The ocean I’m talking about here is the giant life lying on the surface of this planet—the whole body that we and mortals collectively call the ocean. The original life was the creation of this great creature, and it was a miracle that transcended itself.
"A life form that can evolve independently was born in her body in the most distant era. Billions of years later, those tiny creatures gradually evolved into what they are today according to the plan of the ocean.
"You should have also noticed that the flesh-and-blood creatures on this planet all have similar consciousness structures. Although there may be a relatively large gap between the forms of consciousness of insects and humans within them, if you look at it from the perspective of the vast universe If they do so, they will deeply realize that the gap between the consciousness structures of humans and insects is actually very small.
"As for why this is the case, you can refer to the situation where the Titans created flesh and steel puppets to fight against us.
"The humans at that time naturally shaped these two unconscious creatures using their own consciousness and soul patterns as templates, but in fact these two beings can use completely different consciousness patterns from humans, and the Titans can also create that. Creatures, it’s just that they still prefer to create creatures that are similar to themselves.”
Vulcan showed a surprised look:
"The ocean also used its own consciousness as a model when creating the native creatures of Orunze. This is why humans have a similar social structure to the Gunas, and if you don't mention it, I don't think they have any similarities at all. "
The sun god nodded:
"The reason why you would think so is normal. Both humans and Guna actually only have some characteristics of ocean consciousness. The overall consciousness of this great life is broader than the sum of all native life in Orunze.
"And neither you nor I are above this vast consciousness."
When Vulcan heard this, a horrifying idea suddenly flashed through his mind, and then strong resistance and doubt emerged in his heart. Although this idea could not be true at all, he was still surrounded by strong fear. .
Because this would perfectly explain why the sun hadn't told them about the ocean.
The Sun God also noticed his doubts, but did not take the initiative to answer them:
"In fact, this is why the ocean, a great life that seems completely different from flesh and blood creatures, can communicate with us. When she communicates with us, it is like humans talking to low-level artificial intelligence that has not yet been formed. All our languages To her, they are just a few words in our language.
"But in fact, although she is our origin, we don't need to pay too much attention to her now. This is a great creature that will not affect or interfere with the world we live in at will. She transcends all the good and evil we know. Don't use Our tiny perceptions speculate about her.
"She was just enjoying looking at her creations,
And judging from the current level of perfection of human beings, I am afraid that this generation of native life in Orunze is not her original creation.
And it is true that He said that the ocean will not do anything to them. In fact, she cannot affect the planet quickly. The ocean's own view of time is also different from theirs. The difference between her and the gods is like the gods and humans. God's life was only a short moment to her.
When she really wants to do something, the gods and humans in this short time scale cannot detect and realize it.
Vulcan realized the problem:
"But she built Atlantis to worship herself?"
The Sun God nodded and said:
"Most of the life you can see, yes, including us as you think, actually originated from the ocean. Although we may actually have some characteristics that she does not have, we are all very similar no matter what.
“But the Sea Tribe is not included, they are a defense measure for another great life.
"A great life that is completely different from us and the ocean."
Vulcan asked:
"You are saying that there is a great creature on par with the ocean hidden under this trench."
The Sun God shook his head:
"No, it is lying on the crust of this planet. This is the difference between this great life and us. It is very good at understanding and imitating the materials around it. When it fell on this planet, it chose to disguise itself as a planet a part of.
"The word camouflage may be ambiguous. In fact, it is no different from other crustal structures on this planet. At least from our perspective, we cannot find any difference. If it is conscious, it will be completely different from ours. structure.
"This difference is far greater than the difference between insects and humans, close to the difference between rocks and language. To him, soil and humans are the same.
"These sea creatures are also derived from its imitation and adaptation to the surrounding environment. It will protect itself through this characteristic while sleeping. When a threatening living creature approaches its body, it will naturally imitate 'us' '——Life created by the ocean.
"For this great life, there is no difference between our kind of creatures and rocks and soil. There is actually no difference between our impact on it and the meteorites that hit it. It is very likely that it cannot understand or care about our kind." It’s called life, and it’s hard to realize how different we are from the rest of the planet.
“It’s like we don’t understand if it’s dirt or what.
"He is another life form that has nothing in common with us. Even the ocean itself cannot communicate or understand it. Normally, there is no need for so-called communication between them. After all, they will not affect each other."
"The so-called sea people are the imitation of flesh and blood creatures created by this great creature from another great life. Therefore, the sea people can become stronger with almost no limit, and they cannot simply kill or exterminate them. They can even suppress them only Will make them stronger.
“Because they are actually just defense measures for a powerful creature, and their strength only depends on the threats this creature encounters.
"And they look like the life we know, just because it imitates us. If the thing living next to this great creature is living knowledge, the form these sea people take is another group of living knowledge.
"Speaking of this, you should also naturally think that the ocean certainly does not want it to 'wake up' and leave this planet.
"Because it was just a passing moment to them, but to most of her creations...
"That's the end."
