What will the end of the world look like?
Animusfia had secretly imagined the world's destruction, but he fell down on the world in the first step of the world's destruction.
What exactly is the world that humans talk about?
love? family? nation? society? Ecosphere?
Or the grand scale of the earth, the solar system and the universe.
The destruction of love, the fragmentation of families, the collapse of countries, the disappearance of society, the extinction of the ecosphere and the end of the earth, the solar system and even the universe.
Which of these points is most consistent with the concept of the end of the world?
Although love, family and even national disasters can almost completely change someone's daily life, in Animusfia's view, at least from his perspective, these three At least it's not at the level of "the end of the world".
In Animusfia's view, although the disappearance of human society is indeed a situation that cannot be ignored and is even more unacceptable, after careful reflection, Animusfia discovered that the reason why the disappearance of human society is unacceptable in his eyes is Acceptance is only because Animusfia has seen and enjoyed the product of "society".
For more primitive humans, society is just a dispensable thing, and its existence is not even expected at all.
In this case, how can we talk about the end of the world?
The final outcome of all the above is nothing more than personal doom.
Even though Qu Yuan threw himself into the river and died for his country, more people still chose to surrender to the invaders and conquerors.
Even if humans return to the state of eating hair and drinking blood, those humans who give up their former pride can still survive like animals.
They are not the end of the world.
If we really want to talk about the end of the "world", it should at least be at the level of the destruction of the ecosystem.
Goetia's human incineration can be regarded as a good example.
However, who in the vast sea of stars can guarantee that the only planet inhabited by intelligent life is the Earth, which is neither large nor small in the Milky Way?
Perhaps the real end of the world will only be considered when the universe reaches heat death, a big tear or a big collapse.
However, for Animusfia, a small and stupid human being living on the earth, a disaster of the level of ecosystem destruction is enough to meet his definition of the end of the world.
Not long ago, when he was lying on the hospital bed, he still imagined or delusional that he could see the moment when the end came.
If I think about it now, what Animusfia wanted to see at that time was actually not the "end of the world" itself.
The so-called hope to see the end of the world is just that Animusfia at that time did not foresee that the "end of the world" would come so quickly.
And what Animusfia wanted was not to witness the end of the world at all, but to be able to witness the end of the world that he expected would happen at least a thousand years later.
Note that the focus should be on thousands of years from now, not the end of the world.
Until now, Animusfia could barely confirm that at that time, he was just longing to think like a normal person and live for a few days or even a few years.
As for where this conclusion comes from————————————
Animusfia looked up at the broken sky and the light of the moon that was constantly eroding from the cracks, flowing like mercury, and then frowned.
The thinness of the air has reached the critical point for human beings to be able to breathe and survive, and the arrows that had been bombarding Hercules' huge body now simply turned into endless silver rivers washing away his spiritual energy. .
Even an arrow from the Moon Goddess is enough to penetrate the earth's crust or flatten mountains, not to mention that the river of the moon has already stretched out at this moment.
It seemed that Hercules was doing nothing to bear the attack from Luna, but Animusfia realized the power of Hercules even more.
It also made him more convinced that everything Hercules had done before was just to paralyze the "Ming Moon" who was silently watching everything in the sky.
Whether arrogant or confident, Heracles indeed had abilities that were comparable to, or even better than, the gods.
Just by feeling the residual power of the attack from the Moon Goddess, you can know how terrifying the attack is.
The mercury-like moonlight flowing down from Heracles and falling into the ocean condensed into lines similar to the Spear of Uranus cast by Animusfia using celestial magic, as if crystallized metal. It continues to grow under the sea surface and stretches down for tens of kilometers.
Looking around, the sea area where Animusfia is located is gradually solidifying under the impact of the moonlight.
In other words, eroded by the moonlight.
In Chaldea's material library, there is a precious material called inheritance crystal.
The reason for its birth is the high-purity magic crystal condensed due to the intersection of human history and powerful magic torrent. Because the condensation conditions are very harsh, it has become an extremely rare material prop even in Chaldea.
Although Animusfia's Spear of Uranus has a similar molding principle, it is based on the "empty" attribute magic used in celestial magic. Even if he creates a similar magic crystal, it cannot have the same power as the inheritance crystal. The magic crystal accumulated in human history increases the power of followers.
Although the "crystal" produced by the attack of the Moon Goddess lacks the precipitation of human history like the Spear of Uranus, it comes from the attack of Luna, the natural god, for some moon myths. The relevant servants may gain a lot.
Coupled with its huge number————————————
Animusfia looked at the moon crystals that almost occupied the entire sea area, her Adam's apple twitched and she swallowed.
Even if the characteristics of the moonlight are not taken into account, just considering the simple magic power it has is probably enough to make either the Clock Tower Wandering Sea or the Atlas Academy go crazy.
That is ten times a hundred times the magical power of the Holy Grail.
I am afraid that the Holy Grail spread by Goetia and the Demon God Pillar in this era is not even looked at by the Moon Goddess.
Help from them is optional.
All she needs and is waiting for is the weakness of human reason.
Now that the time is finally ripe, Mingyue, who has always hated mankind, has since launched its revenge on human history, bringing the end of the world to this planet.
And Animusfia, who witnessed all this happening, could only regret her past stupidity.
Want to see the end of the world with your own eyes?
If she hadn't made such a stupid wish at the time, Animusfia would not have been in this situation now. Animusfia would have wanted to teleport herself to the past and kill her immediately.
It's a pity that reality does not support him to do this.
Even if we go back in time and kill the person with the stupid wish, the current crisis will not disappear.
On the contrary, the combat power against the Moon Goddess can only be reduced by one point.
At the same time, he was floating on the sea and was still being stared at by Jason's eyes that could kill someone.
Animusfia could only hope that Heracles was sufficiently prepared and that his ability to suppress the bad taste that just solved the situation was reliable enough.
because------------
"You have pissed me off, humans——————"
Along with Jason's annoying words that even Animusfia had to be resigned to, the anger of the Moon Goddess became even more intense.
Animusfia began to feel lucky that when she first made the plan, she was not the one responsible for taunting the Moon Goddess and attracting her attention.
The master girl originally complained about this, and said that her master never disappoints when it comes to making people angry.
But now that Fujimaru Ritsuka has witnessed this scene, he should be convinced.
Animusfia, who was thinking this way, did not dare to let go of the magic power accumulated in the Spear of Ouranos in her hand.
However, the consequence of pouring nearly all the magic power in his hand into the Spear of Uranus was that the Hydra snake venom that Animusfia was originally contaminated with spread rapidly in his body at this moment.
A burning pain like fire was instantly felt in his internal organs.
Jason's provoking skills reached their peak at the right time. Although the goddess sitting on the throne of the bright moon was arrogant, she was not stupid. There was no point in continuing to pretend like this to attract attention.
And Luna has also discovered Animusfia's little moves.
"AnimaAnimusphere!"
Animusfia shouted loudly, and then the majestic magic power spurted out from the Spear of Uranus.
The seawater that the Argonauts relied on for its voyage had long been replaced by crystals condensed by moonlight, but Animusfia's magic turned into a huge wave of magic the moment it was released, pushing the Argonauts forward. With the people on it, they flew towards the golden beam of light originally shot by Hercules.
Like a sharp arrow, the Argonaut rushed straight towards the beam of light connecting the earth and the moon.
"Master, please hold on to me!"
Mashu tilted his giant cross shield slightly to resist the strong wind, reminding Ritsuka Fujimaru who was standing behind him.
However, the red-haired girl's mind at this time was not at all on the golden beam of light that she and others were rushing towards, but on Animusfia, who was far behind them.
"Wait a minute! Director, director, there is no way he can catch up at this speed!"
"Are you just realizing this now?"
Jason said nonchalantly while struggling to resist the strong wind caused by the high-speed advancement.
"How could this be?"
"This plan was his own, and the consequences should have been anticipated by him. Don't you understand yet? Your director had no intention of following us to complete this plan from the beginning. The final journey!”
************
"What do we do now?"
Turning the time forward a few minutes, the melancholy Jason quickly fell into such a depressed and helpless state after ambitiously announcing his departure.
"Don't you quite believe in Heracles' arrangements?"
Animusfia asked Jason in return.
"Trust is trust...but until now I have no idea what he has arranged and what his purpose is..."
Seeing Jason like this, Animusfia looked helpless.
"With your ambitious look before, I thought you had understood the profound meaning of Hercules, but I didn't expect that the old friendship over the years was not as good as my ordinary standing bookcase."
"So, do you understand why Hercules did what he did?"
Looking at the huge golden beam of light in front of her, Animusfia nodded in the face of Jason's doubts, and then said:
"From the Black Sea to the Strait of Gibraltar, from Heraclea in Pontus to the Pillars of Hercules in Spain. The name of Hercules is unknown to everyone. He has many responsibilities and powers. This naturally includes the power of the sun.
In Phoenician and Celtic mythology, Heracles has always been inseparable from the sun. But ultimately, is he really the god of the sun? "
"What do you mean by that?"
Jason gradually became confused by Animusphia's statement. It was he who first said that Heracles was the sun god, and now it was he who questioned his identity.
"Just look at that pillar of light and you will understand————In fact, haven't you already said it, Jason, that is the path of glory opened up by Hercules for us?"
Matthew, who has always had a deep understanding of history and folklore, suddenly lit up when he heard the last few words Animusfiya said.
"Could it be that, Director Animusfia, you are talking about the path opened by Mr. Hercules?"
"Yes, it is the Hercules Road opened by Heracles in mythology in order to return from the extreme west. According to legend, when returning from the land, it was to help nearby pedestrians from being harmed by wild beasts, and also to In order to return to Greece as quickly as possible, Hercules fought through obstacles all the way, even if he encountered obstacles in the mountains, he had to use a rope to pull him away————————Since then, there has been a land route connecting the entire Mediterranean world. Les Road.”
Animusfia paused, then continued:
"However, this is only a record that remains in Greek mythology, because Heracles does not have the power of the sun in the Greek mythology system, so another attribute of this path has been forgotten, and in the belief in Kai In the eyes of the Gallic ancestors of the Celtic polytheism, this Heracles Road also has another name, the Path of the Sun.
Why do you have such a name? This is not only because Hercules is regarded as a god related to the sun among the Celtic people, but also because of its path itself. In fact, it is not difficult to understand. Ordinary people only need to stand on it and look from west to east. enough. "
Animusfia used magic power to simulate the scene on the path of Hercules in the surrounding area, and Jason and others happened to see the transition between day and night and the moment when dawn ended.
A red sun rose just behind the road where Animusfia was standing, as if it was being pulled by this road.
"If you look at this road on a map, it is not difficult to find that it forms a diagonal line - the shortest straight line between two points. Why did Hercules spend extra effort to open up extra roads? What? It would not be surprising if it is related to the oblique angle of the earth itself. Just stand on the path of Hercules, and as long as you face the east, you can always see the sun rising from this path, perfectly aligned, As if——leading the sun.”
Animusfia said calmly, while looking at Apollo who was on the Argonaut.
"Rather than saying that Hercules is the god of the sun, it is better to say that he is the god who leads the light."
And that golden pillar of light was the path that Hercules opened up for them to lead the sun.
