In this city of void, words have become the palest thing.
"The third truth."
After a long, suffocating silence. Chonghuang made no secret of the loneliness and guilt in his eyes. He looked at the screen where the advertisement for "Kagli Necklace" was still playing, but there was no longer a pair of beautiful people looking at it with longing for the future, and his voice was low: " I am a sinner of a race."
No response, no comment.
When the truth of this blindfolded war was revealed, the monster's identity was the savior, but the boy who thought he was a hero turned out to be the murderer of the genocide.
Bad joke.
Even if Zhou Li lived again, he would not be able to accept this extremely cruel truth. He couldn't find any adjectives, he couldn't even feel anger or sadness.
This is the death of a race. It is a horrifying truth that a group of races with extremely high technological levels and moral standards of saints were killed by the people they saved, completely annihilating the race. This war lasted for twelve years. It seemed that these twelve years were very long, but in terms of the dimension from the birth to the development of a race, it was just an invisible and weak node.
In twelve years, the gods created a man and destroyed a race.
At this moment, Zhou Li felt powerless, an unstoppable feeling of emptiness that came from his soul.
"You can kill me right now."
Staring into Kaya's eyes, the sinner who destroyed her race did not dodge her gaze. Emperor Chong spoke without any hesitation: "Pierce the blade into my heart and completely annihilate my soul. This place has been abandoned by the gods, and my soul will remain in this world. Don't worry, there is a will in any world. Yes, He will help you complete my judgment."
Chonghuang's projection handed a pale golden dagger to Kaya. Kaya took the dagger and touched the cold handle with her delicate palm. She stared at this god-given weapon, raised her head, and met Chonghuang's eyes.
After a brief silence, Kaya's voice sounded. Zhou Li, who was in a daze, pulled himself away from the cocoon of powerlessness and forced himself to concentrate on listening to what this girl who carried the hatred of a race was about to say.
"It's not just these three truths...right?"
With a layer of darkness in her eyes, Kaya looked at the unmanned shuttle in the distance, her voice slightly hoarse: "You won, what next?"
"It does not matter."
Emperor Chong shook his head, and his words were full of plainness and joy, as if he was not going to die, but to complete something he had been looking forward to for a long time, "This is not a victory, it is a sin I committed."
"That's not it."
Kaya stared at Chonghuang's face. She understood everything from the first time she saw this man named Qimu, who was admired by others. She gritted her silver teeth, stubbornly fixed her gaze on Qi Mu's face, and said word by word: "Tell me, who am I?"
"Why would I treat you as my father?!"
The moment Kaya was about to say the word father, Qi Mu was suddenly shocked, and soon, an unforgettable smile appeared on his originally calm face. He looked at Kaya, as if hesitating for something. After a long time, he sighed and said quietly: "This is the fourth truth."
When Emperor Chong saw the bright red blood, an extremely ridiculous guess that made Emperor Chong tremble appeared in his mind. He raised his trembling legs and slowly, staggering like an old man, walked towards the corpse.
The purple eyes showed unwillingness and sadness, and the skin as white as jade was covered with blood. The girl sat on a stone tablet and maintained her last movements. Her throat was pierced by a sharp sword, and her blood had long since flowed out. Chonghuang stretched out his hand blankly and gently touched the girl's arm.
Cold, slightly elastic touch.
There was no stinging pain or the burning heat of the void blood, she was just an ordinary girl.
When he realized this, Chonghuang resisted the desire to vomit. This was a feeling he had no longer felt since he came to this world. His hands kept shaking, and his right hand used all his strength to hold the dagger tightly. This is not physical weakness, but spiritual despair.
The dagger pierced his skin and easily smeared blood on his wrist.
God's blessing disappeared.
The void race is no longer a monster.
clang!
The pale golden god-given blade sank into the metal ground like cutting tofu. Emperor Chong knelt on the ground, supporting his body with both arms. He opened his eyes wide and stared at the crimson blood spots on the ground. His teeth kept knocking against each other, making a gurgling sound.
Chonghuang, who had killed the evil spirit bone dragon and massacred the void monster. Today, like a newbie, he vomited when he saw an extremely ordinary girl's body that didn't even have any limbs or arms.
He slowly threw his body on the ground, feeling the biting cold, but Chonghuang's eyes could not close no matter what. When he saw the corpse that was no different from a human being, Chonghuang understood the reasons for the countless unusual behaviors of void creatures.
It will not kill humans with sharp weapons, but will always try its best to knock humans into coma. The strange behavior of "devouring" human beings by taking out their mouthparts at any time. Before the war, it would always howl at humans with an incomprehensible piercing voice, always accompanied by a head-bobbing motion.
At first, Chonghuang just thought that they were demonstrating towards humans and eating to replenish their lives. But when he saw the syringe and the incomplete visor, and saw the "source of the void" that was originally full of purple spots and twisted black mist in his eyes, the moment the blessing of the gods disappeared, it became a city of silver and white technology. Then he understood everything.
Emperor Chong went crazy.
He completely closed his inner world and kept wandering in this dead city. The passage outside has been completely sealed, and the city with only one person continues to operate under the simulated sky.
In this way, Emperor Chong wandered in confusion for a month. He didn't eat anything or drink even a drop of water. Even though there was clear water on the roadside and meals available everywhere, he still blocked the instinct to eat. At this moment, Chong Huang completely gave up on himself.
it's over.
He told himself that it was all over.
The spatial fusion created by his wife Lin Yuan is a completely irreversible seal. This kind of seal can even isolate the gods. Without the blessing of gods, even the slightest sound can't be transmitted to the outside world. The truth has been buried in this city forever. The empty goodwill and the despair of death will forever be dissipated in this city with myself, a sinner.
If it was really just like this, nothing that happened later would have happened.
While wandering unconsciously, Qi Mu heard a cry.
That is the cry of a baby, representing the beautiful echo of new life. The moment the cry rang out, Qi Mu's heart that had been tightly locked suddenly began to beat. Qi Mu's eyes regained some sparkle. Without any grace, he dragged his body that was on the verge of collapse to the fountain, put his head into the clear water and drank heavily.
After regaining some strength, Qi Mu followed the source of the sound. He entered a majestic building that towered into the sky without any hindrance. On the highest floor of the building, he saw a nutrition warehouse. There is also a little crying baby soaked in green nutrient solution.
The height of civilization in this world has reached a terrifying level. There are no door locks or complicated passwords in all important locations. It is as if this civilized human being has reached a high degree of autonomy and consciously follows every rule that should be followed.
Therefore, this nutritional warehouse even has an instruction panel without text, which seems to be to take care of ordinary people without education. The operation of the nutritional warehouse is extremely simple.
After understanding the explanation of the nutrition warehouse, Qi Mu did not unlock the "petri dish". He stared deeply at the baby's appearance, as if every wrinkle of her was engraved in his mind. After a long stare, Qi Mu activated hibernation mode, and the baby continued to fall into a deep sleep.
Afterwards, Qiu Mu frantically searched for baby supplies in the city. He began to study the words on his own, comparing the meaning of each character in the vast sea of books. He began to search for everything about babies and children in the "Great Library of Kallis".
He spent five years preparing to welcome that little life.
Five years later, with great excitement, Nanmu pressed the wake-up button. With a clear cry from Liao Lang, Qi Mu's emotions that had been suppressed for several years finally broke out. He first suppressed his sadness and walked out the door, beating his legs hard, without crying or roaring, he vented his emotions in such a quiet and silent way. After sorting out her mood, Qi Mu took the baby out of the sleeping chamber.
Following the instructions in the book and with extreme care, this little baby grew up smoothly. The child, who has long been named "Kaya Kalis", is a girl and looks extremely cute. Well-behaved, obedient, and sensible, this girl is like a gift from God, rekindling Qi Mu's hope in life, which had long been despairing.
When celebrating Kaya's eighth birthday, Qiu Mu smiled and asked Kaya her birthday wish. In this world, Qiu Gu is like an omnipotent god. No matter what Kaya wants, she will use everything to fight for her. But this time, Kaya made a request that Qi Mu didn't expect.
"I want to see the others."
The simple, unmodified words pierced Qi Mu's heart like the sharpest sword blade. At this moment, he understood that the sin of genocide had never left his body. He was still Emperor Chong, the sinner that the angel in front of him should bear the most hatred for.
At this moment, Qi Mu fell into a huge contradiction. There is no life left in this world except them. If he dies, Kaya will become the loneliest child in the world, which will be the result of his selfishness. However, the passage to the outside world has long been completely sealed. Now that he has lost the blessing of the gods, he cannot touch the tunnel that was completely sealed by his wife.
But even if she leaves here, the humans Kaya will face are not her own kind, but the enemies who have killed her people.
After struggling for a whole year, Qi Mu chose to come to the Kalis Library again. This time, he found the core terminal on the bottom floor of the library. This is the center that controls the entire Kalis city. Any data or energy is deployed and controlled by it.
On Kaya's ninth birthday, Qi Mu sent Kaya into the cultivation cabin. Then he came to the underground of the library again and used an ability he had learned when he had just traveled through time and had not been chosen by the gods.
Possessed soul.
This ability was just something he learned for a while, and it was useless in that world. It can only attach to dead objects, cannot hide its aura, and has no defense in its soul state. This ability was once rated as the most boring and useless ability, and no one has ever learned it.
However, this time, Qi Mu was extremely grateful that she had learned this ability. When he regained consciousness, he had become a "terminal".
This time, he flipped through the book he had never dared to read - the history of Kallis.
Kalis was once a planet-class spacecraft for interstellar exploration purposes, about the size of two Earths. The original Kalis civilization was highly developed, already in a state of endless energy and capable of controlling dimensions. Even this planet-class spacecraft named after its home planet was just for exploration and had never carried out any aggression. However, even so, Kallis, who was naturally peace-loving, still developed a powerful civilization.
But even such a powerful civilization cannot withstand the vastness of the universe.
During a space shuttle, the Kallis spacecraft fell into a strange space. There are no suns, moons, galaxies, or any affairs in this space. And this is what became "void" later on.
The Kallis spacecraft began a large-scale self-rescue. After countless failures, the people of the spacecraft finally decided to give up the useless struggle and invest resources in survival. Relying on endless energy and the strange energy existing in the void, the Kallis spacecraft quickly became a world that was no different from the planet, achieving controllable self-sufficiency.
Although Kalis has achieved survival, people's moral standards have been improving. But soon an extremely fatal problem appeared in front of this race - reproduction.
Due to the characteristics of the race, the Kallis family needs to use a special element "thallium (transliteration)" to reproduce. After thousands of years, the thallium on the Kallis spacecraft was completely exhausted. This element cannot be produced on a spaceship, and there is no way to cultivate it. After the last generation of young people was born, this group of old people took the initiative to donate their bodies to study how to produce thallium element to continue the race.
When thallium research produced certain results, the Kallis terminal suddenly received a signal from outside space. The Kalis people followed the signal as quickly as possible to open a crack in the space that Kalis could not pass through, and contacted the outside world.
However, to their great regret, the outside planetary environment cannot produce thallium element. Although it is a pity not to be able to produce, this is also a good opportunity for them to ask for help from their home planet. Soon, the signal was sent.
No news.
They did not explore the situation in the outside world, because when the signal was sent, the Kalisians noticed something-the outside planet was about to be destroyed.
Kallis recorded the reasons for the destruction of the planet in great detail, down to their formulas and scientific measurements. This is completely beyond the scope of what Chonghuang can learn. He simply cannot understand the science of civilization that is hundreds of millions of years beyond the earth, even if he has been assimilated by the terminal at this time. But that didn't stop him from quickly skipping this part, because he already knew the rest of the story.
The day the Kallis rescue team set off was the experimental stage of the Kallis people's first artificial "thallium" element. Kaya was the first embryo to undergo the experiment.
On the day when hope came, the Karis people walked into the abyss of despair.
After checking the history, Chonghuang, who had become the terminal of the planet, finally found a way to crack the tunnel. He looked up that all worlds have their own wills, and the wills of the worlds love their children. At this time, Qi Mu came up with an extremely bold idea.
Projection, the household registration.
Space will not block the soul, but the human soul cannot separate from the body. Chonghuang understood this, but he believed that he could do it.
Technology and magic, science fiction and fantasy. After combining her remaining professional abilities with the petri dish, Qi Mu succeeded.
He stripped off the void mark on Kaya's soul and wiped all her humanity blank and gave it to Kaya. Although the price is that Nanmu will never be able to contact the possessed state, Kaya has become a legitimate person from another world.
However, Qi Mu still had certain illusions, and he still left a faint trace of the void. Although he loved Kaya and didn't want her to receive even the slightest harm, he also gave Kaya the right to know the truth.
Kaya, who returns to reality, will be in a state of existence and nothingness. In that form, Kaya not only possesses the entity of Kalis, but also possesses the soul imprint of the real world. At the same time, the weak mark will also give Kaya the power to travel through space, allowing her to protect herself.
However, Kaya cannot retain her memory.
Chonghuang knew that if Kaya returned to reality, she would have to forget everything about herself. These ten years of life with Kaya were everything in his heart and the reason why he could continue to live. But soon he would delete these memories from Kaya's mind and never keep them again.
However, Emperor Chong did not hesitate.
He has fulfilled all of Kaya's previous birthday wishes, and this time, he still will not break his promise.
