"By the way, there's one more thing."
As if he thought of something, Tuomazhen suddenly looked at Zhou Li and said to him: "You must go to the Three Eastern Courts."
After hearing these words, Zhou Li suddenly remembered that Gaia had asked him to go to the Three Eastern Courts. Looking at Zhou Li who was thoughtful, Tomazhen continued: "Gaia should also let you go to the East, because in her memory, the Three Eastern Courts are the only region that has not been harmed by the collapse of the Golden Law. "
"And I asked you to go to the Three Eastern Courts to confirm a conjecture."
Thinking of that country that even the God of Literature couldn't see through, Thomasin looked a little solemn.
“The East knows God, but does not believe in God.”
“Know God, but don’t believe in Him?”
Zhou Li repeated Tuomazhen's words. Facing Zhou Li who was a little confused, Tuomazhen nodded and replied: "Yes, you know it but don't believe it."
"When I became the God of Literature, all countries sent me beliefs about literature, and the Three Eastern Courts were no exception. However, when I was trapped in the soul world and spent a long time recalling the past, I suddenly noticed something."
"Each time the faith given to me by the Three Oriental Courts has a unique pattern in terms of quality and quantity. It is as if they know what we need, and they deliver the faith to us in a timely and quantitative manner, exactly."
The corners of his eyes dropped slightly, Tomazhen said to Zhou Li while recalling: "Now it seems that when it comes to worshiping gods, the Three Eastern Courts are like feeding grain to poultry. They never make any mistakes, but they don't There is no emotion at all. Their beliefs are very formal, which also makes Twelve Quarters feel at ease with them. Over time, Twelve Quarters rarely pays attention to the Three Eastern Courts."
"So you think that the Three Eastern Courts know the existence of the gods and the laws of the gods, but they don't believe in the gods. They just worship them with their faith like paying protection fees, right?"
"That's right."
After agreeing with Zhou Li's guess, Tomazhen added: "Furthermore, I found that after the Three Eastern Courts began to worship the gods, the twelve quarters began to deliberately downplay the existence of the Three Eastern Courts. This is absolutely unusual."
"I see."
After hearing this information, Zhou Li nodded and indicated that he should take note of the information. Afterwards, there was a long silence between the two. Finally, Zhou Li broke the silence. He raised his head and asked Tomazhen in a deep voice:
"How do I kill you?"
Faced with Zhou Li's almost "offensive" words, Tuoma Zhen not only did not feel any anger, on the contrary, he only had relief in his eyes.
"It's a pity that I don't get to know the epic story you created."
With a little regret, Tomaszhen smiled gently and said: "Gaia came to see me once tens of thousands of years ago. She told me that there was a young man named Brave who created an unparalleled epic. This made me very curious. .”
Tens of thousands of years ago?
Zhou Li quickly realized that the tens of thousands of years that Tomazhen mentioned were the passage of time in the soul world, but in reality, only a few months had passed.
"She said that you have truly found the future of mankind, and you are the brave man we want. Although there is no time to slowly listen to you tell the story of the brave man, but it is enough."
With eyes as bright as stars and a bookish aura, Tuomazhen stared at Zhou Li, relief and emotion appearing on his face. He placed the pen in front of Zhou Li and said softly: "The moment I saw you, I knew you would win."
Zhou Li didn't say anything. He just solemnly took the pen that had no power and was just an ordinary pen. After seeing Zhou Li put away his pen, Thomas smiled and nodded, and then answered Zhou Li's initial question.
"Pierce into my chest with the silver dagger Gaia gave you."
Facing the surprised Zhou Li, Tuomazhen nodded and confirmed: "It's that simple, just one stab with it is enough to kill me."
"Is there anything else you want to know?"
Zhou Li took out the dagger. He did not hesitate, but asked Tuomazhen with respect: "I will tell you as much as I can."
“What’s going on with the Literary Church?”
Facing Tuoma Zhen's inquiry, Zhou Li thought for a while and then replied: "They rarely rely on the authority of the God of Literature and have been working hard to create. They think that relying on literature created by others is inelegant and boring. , so they just respect you and worship you, but don’t follow you.”
"good."
Thomas nodded, and it was obvious that he was very satisfied with the answer. "I came to Yingnan. In addition to the hope of finding humans, I just wanted to downplay my existence. It seems that I will complete it no matter what." one of them.”
"There's no problem."
Tuoma Zhen swept his sleeves, stood up, and walked to Zhou Li's side. He looked around at everything in this soul world, and a trace of melancholy flashed in his eyes.
"This place has been in my memory for tens of millions of years."
The short words made Zhou Li feel a heavy feeling on his face. Time is the most terrifying poison in the world, and time that remains unchanged is the most cruel weapon.
I spent millions of years alone in this desolate world. It was hard for Zhou Li to imagine what kind of will and obsession allowed this always gentle man to suppress his madness and keep himself humble. Until now, he still has love, love for literature and human beings.
"gone…"
With a little emotion, but more of a sense of relief. Tomazhen shook his hand, and countless words, papers and ink marks emerged from all around, gathering around him like swallows returning to their nests. He looked at these words that constructed the god of literature and smiled.
“My first poem was terrible.”
The dagger pierced his heart, and his soul began to show ripples stained by ink marks. He raised his head, his gentleness not diminishing, "It's really bad, the words are bland, the sentences don't flow, and they don't rhyme. Even my first archbishop complained about me, saying that if this poem was written by his child, he would I’ll definitely pass out from anger.”
“But, I really like that poem.”
The body began to become ethereal, and gradually collapsing words appeared in front of Zhou Li's eyes. He said nothing, but looked at Thomasin with great respect, at this god who really loved the world.
Thomas felt the drifting words, the disappearing body, and the gradually blurring vision, just like a thousand years ago, he was just born and came to this world with a longing for the future. Only, this time, he was leaving.
The brilliance in front of his eyes disappeared, and Tomazhen's body made of words began to dissipate. His face became blurry and his voice became a little erratic.
"I condense in the words, and the books and paper turn into long clothes and fall on me."
Whispering softly, some trance, some memories.
"The sun reflects the ink marks, and the water light and wind write my name."
"Opening the world's classics, I found my way back"
"Humans created words, words created books, and I was born."
"Therefore, I love the world"
There is no rhyme or any flowery rhetoric. An ordinary poem, like a boring student's poem, came from Thomas's mouth. The god of literature, the god who governs all literature, did not know literature at the moment of his birth.
Now, he is leaving, but literature has been left to mankind forever.
The dissipated gods, the world of souls, and the lonely Zhou Li.
"It's over..."
Zhou Li sighed with some regret, feeling the trick of fate for the first time. He stretched out his hand, looking for something in this world that was gradually returning to madness.
"Two summaries only take two minutes."
In reality, Eluma closed her eyes tightly, clenched her fists, and listened carefully to the ticking sound of the pocket watch given to her by Zhou Li.
The most important part of this plan is to return Zhou Li to the real world. The reason why Zhou Li was able to enter the false soul was because the two powers of the Black Emperor and Gaia controlled by Eluma gave him this ability. However, due to lack of time, Eluma did not fully grasp this power. Therefore, Eluma must grasp the time accurately, open the way back at the right time, and lead Zhou Li's soul.
The problem is that falsehood will never give Eluma this chance. The moment Zhou Li entered his soul, False felt the intentions of Eluma and Zhou Li. At this time, he realized that the opportunity had come.
As long as Eluma is allowed to start the path of return early or give up, Zhou Li's soul will be trapped in his soul forever and die completely. Falsely believing that Eluma, who had lost Zhou Li's guidance, could not stop herself. This was the opportunity to turn the tide of the war.
You will pay the price for your arrogance!
Without any worries, False desperately released all his power. The surrounding evil spirits erupted with unprecedented power. Their bodies began to dissipate and their souls began to evaporate, but they gained a power that could be described as crushing.
In an instant, the situation on the battlefield reversed. With almost no effort, the monsters tore apart the circle of monsters around Eluma and rushed towards Eluma crazily. At this time, the monsters did not react for a moment, and could only watch helplessly as the monsters rushed towards the unsuspecting Eluma.
"water!!!!"
Hysterical roars rang out, and the sky-covering flood spread from all sides, instantly engulfing the demons who were flying in the air and preparing to kill Eluma, and then hit the ground heavily.
Ishtar slowly walked out of the building behind him. He stood still and opened his arms. The flood behind him was surging into the sky. He looked at the falsehood in front of him quietly like a disaster that would destroy the world.
"Roya saved my life, and Christine is someone I respect."
He stared intently at the falsehood in front of him, with the murderous intent in his eyes choosing to devour anyone. False was stunned by Zhou Li's impact on his psychological defense. When he saw those angry eyes, False's heart trembled, and he began to be afraid.
"It's not worth trading your life for both of theirs."
His hands gradually closed together, and the flood water gathered together. Soon, a water giant comparable to a false one appeared behind him. At this time, Ishtar, who had been completely drained of strength and whose skin was all dry, grinned, and a ferocious smile appeared on his face.
"So, I want you to..."
The giant of water raised his fist and hit the false head with all his strength to control the evil. Facing the astonished falsehood, Ista's smile became even more ferocious.
"Kill a thousand times!!!"
"You are just a bug playing with water!!!"
False, who was hit hard on the head, suddenly became angry. He took back some of his strength. The filthy tentacles firmly imprisoned the water giant. He squeezed hard, and the water giant suddenly heard an overwhelmed sound and wave after wave of ripples. Out of the body. Ista's face suddenly turned pale and he almost fell to the ground.
"It's just a gift from God, but you dare to make mistakes in front of God!"
With a roar, the water giant was pushed to the ground. False looked at the tiny Ishtar and yelled viciously: "You are just an ordinary person. Your power is given by God. How dare you fight against me alone?!"
"I will cut this woman into pieces in front of you, and I will taste your desperate expression carefully and without leaving anything behind!!"
The tentacles shot out and stabbed Eluma who was standing with her eyes closed. At this moment, a ray of silver light passed in front of False and knocked down the tentacles. The silver light stung False's eyes, and also reflected the faint smile on Ishtar's face.
Staggering, Geralost, dragging the silver crossbow, slowly collapsed on the ground. He weakly raised his hand, waved it, and forced a smile: "Grandson, don't forget me."
At this time, human roars came from the streets in all directions. Countless surviving soldiers such as the city defense army, Templar Knights, and the British and Southern Legions held sharp weapons and began to move towards the falsehood.
Don Quixote stood beside Eluma with the shield of the guardian. They were like the strongest shield in the world, shining with the halo of brilliant diamonds.
The berserker Noxar threw a sharp ax and hit an evil creature. Then he took out a magic gun and shot the evil creature behind him three meters away.
"My street has finally been cleaned up, luckily it's in time."
Carrying a big gun and holding a sharp ax, Noxar walked up to the president of the Hunter Guild and said with a smile: "This kid Zhou Li is really amazing. He has the perfect timing."
"Do more, talk less."
Alpha closed his eyes and controlled the vines to shoot down the surrounding tentacles. He drew out three sharp arrows and nailed them into the false body in an instant. Accompanied by a dazzling light, a booming explosion resounded through the sky from the virtual body, shaking it backwards.
In mid-air, Linghai and Kaya kept shuttling through the Void Gate. Torrea, holding a spear, could accurately kill the sneak attack Xie San every time. The strange plants that emerged from the ground attacked the evil creatures, and under the control of Li Yako, they stopped the evil creatures.
Lying on the cold ground, looking up at the still gray sky, listening to the sounds of fighting in his ears. Gerost slowly closed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly:
"Royal, mankind has never needed a savior."
"All they need is courage."
