"Zhou Li."
In this caught world, Yi quietly watched the flowers representing the goddess of life wither. After a long time, Zhou Li turned his back to Zhou Li, who had entered the world of Gaia, and asked softly:
"Do we really have a chance?"
"have."
Zhou Li answered decisively and calmly. It was as if he was stating an established fact, without exaggeration or emotional progression. He stared into the eyes hidden between the abyss and reality, but his short words were so powerful.
"This is all the data, information and history hidden by the gods."
An ever-changing stone bead precipitated from Yi's body and slowly fell into Zhou Li's hand. As soon as he closed his eyes, the body of the Lord of the Immortal Court began to flicker, like a disintegrating light curtain.
"From the origin of the world, the destruction of the original civilization, the replacement of races, the Kalis family's exploration of the outside world, to the discovery of the three-body problem... there are many, many, these are the true impressions and patterns engraved with the gods' patterns. No one will question the information, not even the gods can escape it.”
Like the moonlight in the water, Yi's figure gradually reflects different colors and waveforms. Zhou Li was speechless, and Eluma beside him gently held his hand and accompanied him to witness all this.
"On the scale of the universe, civilization is as small as an ant, and the debate between good and evil is particularly ridiculous in the sea of stars. For the universe, destruction and rebirth are just insignificant elements, and civilization is also dispensable. carrier.”
Turning around, the body with stacked data gradually collapsed. Thousands of years of life were not a gift to her, but a price. In order to wait for Zhou Li to appear at this moment and return the data to him, she paid the price of struggling for thousands of years.
Now, it's time for relief.
"But for us children who only know how to send out the most primitive cry to the universe, civilization is everything to us."
"Zhou Li, Eluma, Torea."
Yi seemed to be smiling, but her body was already as bright and fragile as starlight. She stared at Zhou Li, Eluma, and Eluma beside them. Her eyes became ethereal, as if staring at three tiny but vibrant dust particles in the universe.
"I'm sorry if I end up being your sinner."
After leaving the last words, Yi's body instantly disintegrated, and countless fragments of stacked laws and characters flew freely. Falling like a comet, flowing like fireworks, and wandering around the world like starlight one after another far away from the sky.
Yi's apology is not only an apology to these three young people who have been given too heavy a responsibility, but also a sincere apology to the three civilizations that are about to be pushed to the gambling table.
Atalona's death not only meant that the power of life was returned to the world, Zhou Li obtained the most precious information and data. Her death means that the world of Gaia has given up on the safest way of sacrificing itself to save the other two civilizations, and instead chose to find a way to save the world and save everyone.
This gamble is small and ridiculous on the scale of the universe, but for these three civilizations, it is a grand gamble that cannot afford any failure. At the gambling table called the universe, Zhou Li and the others faced the almost invincible laws of the universe. They placed three planets, three civilizations, and three worlds in the chip area, waiting for this huge gamble.
Win, all three civilizations will survive, and everyone will be happy.
If you lose, the three grains of dust will collide together and eventually be wiped out.
The withering world gradually collapsed. Zhou Li and the other three stood quietly in this small and fragmented space, watching the numbers and words around them continue to fragment. They know that this is the end of one, the end of the entire fairy court. A nearly perfect country that lasted for thousands of years died like this.
This was also the first time Zhou Li understood that death was not the end.
But start.
"I didn't expect that..."
Zhou Li felt the darkness gradually spreading around him, the gentle breath of Eluma next to him, and the cold and sincere eyes of Torea, and said softly: "I have died so many times, experienced so many deaths, and in the end I am a People’s deaths made me realize this.”
"This is good."
Eluma on the side gently held his hand, ran her tender fingertips across the back of Zhou Li's calloused hand, and said softly: "Love and death are the eternal theorems of this world."
Torea on the side was a little confused, but also a little touched. She stretched out her hand, and the torrent of debris slapped her body like a raging ocean wave, but it did not cause any stagnation. They are both fierce and gentle, like a stern mother driving her children away from disease and dust.
Once it dies, the Immortal Court will naturally collapse. But in order for Zhou Li and others to truly understand what the demise of civilization and the collapse of the world is, Yi used the last remaining heat to ignite the fairy court, exposing the world that would have shattered in the cold hollow to the eyes of the three of them. They surrounded everyone like withered flowers.
"If we fail, we will have three of the most horrific mass murderers in the history of civilization."
Torea was as cold and indifferent as ever, with a kind of rationality that was incomprehensible. She stared at everything in front of her and said flatly: "We will also be the loneliest mass murderers."
"So, we're going to succeed."
When the last remaining light faded and the world was shattered, the moment the warm luster from the Three Eastern Courts hit Zhou Li's cheek, a strange feeling spread in Zhou Li's heart. He tapped his chest lightly and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Only then did he realize that he had never loved this world.
This world is full of deception, feudalism, and a terrible world.
If you use high-sounding reasons to deceive yourself, you will be exposed sooner or later. Just like Zhou Li, if you use your identity as a hero to oppress yourself and drive yourself to save the world, you will always fall short in the end. This is not fate, nor is it everything that is destined to be arranged by others. This is just the futile struggle of a tired person in the end.
so···
I don't love this world.
However, there are many people in this world who deserve my love.
The moment Zhou Li left the Broken Fairyland, Don Quixote, who had been worried about Zhou Li, quickly came up to him. After seeing clearly that there were no scars on the bodies of several people, this knight who believed in justice throughout his life showed his face for the first time. A bright smile.
"Win the season, let's go."
Turning his back to the Master of the Human Court behind him, Zhou Li spoke softly: "One has left, now, they are waiting for you."
Jiang Qi, the lord of Tianshui City, was possessed by Ying Ji, the lord of Human Court. He didn't use Jiang Qi's body to do anything, he just led Zhou Li and led them here, to this land where memories and the past are deeply buried.
And Ying Ji died thousands of years ago. Now he is more like an obsession.
"I should tell you the truth once and for all. If I repeat it again, it will seem a little annoying."
Smiling and shaking his head, Ying Ji stretched out his hand, looked at his body in the spirit state, and said softly: "My parting words should be simple."
"Zhou Li, I wish you all the best."
It's like a plain blessing from a departing friend, like the indifference of leaving after a glass of wine. Ying Ji stood up calmly, raised his head, looked at the sunset after a long separation, and said softly:
"I also wish this world can be reborn."
The sunset gently soothed Ying Ji, soothing the soul that had stayed for a thousand years, reluctantly.
Since then, the three Eastern Courts have lost all their owners.
The phantom people who appeared out of thin air also disappeared with the departure of Ying Ji.
Jiang Qi, who returned to Tianshui City, stared blankly at his own courtyard. He hoped that the lovely girl would fly out, hug him, laugh as always, and tell himself how many interesting things she had seen today. So delicious and helped so many children.
However, all that was left to him was peace and quiet.
The streets of Tianshui City have lost the hustle and bustle of the past. The disappearance of those fantasy people brought a lot of food, resources and land, but also took away a lot.
For example...emotion.
Pursing his dry lips, Jiang Qi, who had been standing for an unknown amount of time, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and exhaled slowly. When he opened his eyes again, the original confusion and sadness were hidden in his eyes. He walked to the main hall of the city lord's palace, sat on the chair that represented rights and responsibilities, stretched out his hand, and picked up the first document.
The world is not destroyed yet.
Everything is supposed to be business as usual.
When the last document was taken away by the attendant, Jiang Qi opened an unnamed book at the bottom. When he turned the first page and saw the first line of characters, Jiang Qi was stunned.
[I picked a lot of cherries and put them in the third rattan basket in the cellar. There are still many in the bushes on the hillside in the north of the city. My brother can pick them at any time]
[I don’t like sweets, brother, you don’t have to leave them for me~]
[I wish my brother all the best, peace and joy]
