Chapter 145: The real purpose of the outer god

Zhang Yun said in a deep voice, "Yes, I have seen it. I can use the sacred power at will, even turn it into angel wings, flying into the sky."
This guy……
I thought that what she said would kill me was a lie...
Unexpectedly, she really did this...
Killing inheritors...
God's Punishment Army...
but?
Why not do it?
Help me every time instead?
Is it also because of Archid?
As if he knew what Zhang Yun was thinking, Edward said slowly:
Don’t think about it. As the inheritor, you are indeed our goal. According to the normal process, when you enter our field of vision and expose the inheritance, Will be dispatched to purge you."
"In fact, we did the same."
"just……"
Zhang Yun asked suspiciously: "Huh? When?"
what!
Could it be that!
The Butterfly Gemini! ?
Seeing Zhang Yun suddenly realized, Edward picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and slowly said: "Remember? Yes, it is the two little girls, passed down as the'Butterfly of Ice and Fire', they are in the desert city' Kill you, and you now appear in front of me intact."
I rely on?
This is why the Butterfly Gemini attacked me?
After a pause, Zhang Yun frowned and asked: "Don't you think it is strange?"
Edward smiled slowly: "Why should I feel strange?"
He put down the wine glass: "Weird you are not dead? Or is it weird that you appear in front of me? Are these important? Aren't the ancient evil gods that harmed the world also unkillable creatures?
"There are so many magical things in this world!"
"You came back from the dead, or you didn't die at all, these are nothing."
"..."
After listening, Zhang Yun did not speak, but stared at Edward, with both hands ready to summon entourages and heroes to protect herself from possible dangers.
After all, he can't figure out now whether Edward is an enemy or a friend.
You say Edward is the enemy...
But he is now talking about the ins and outs of the matter, and Kuula is also obviously in the same group with him. The two have been helping themselves since the Holy City. No matter whether it is inheritance or identity, they have never interacted with that group of unrelated gods. Filed.
Can the enemy help you stupidly?
You said Edward is an ally...
But when he sent the Butterfly Twins to assassinate him, he was still a killer and merciless one. If he didn't have resurrection coins at the time, he would have returned to the Western Heavenly Bliss and had no chance to come to the holy city.
Friendly?
Will the friendly forces want to take your life?
While Zhang Yun was thinking about it, Edward revealed another secret: "Moreover, I also know that you are not a person in our world, just like those outside gods, from a remote'other world', and should be The progress of civilization and history far surpasses our world."
"Am I right?"
"Zhang Yun?"
Zhang Yun: "???"
Bad! bad! Very bad! My identity as a traverser was actually seen through! ?
wdndm! ?
The first traverser found in the world is me! ?
Edward slowly smiled and said, "Hehe, don’t worry, only I know about this, and no one else in this world knows. Even if it’s Kuula, she only thinks you are from the East. I don't know the existence of the'different world'."
"And I won't talk about it."
"Not to use this to threaten you."
"do not worry."
Hearing Edward's words, Zhang Yun felt helpless, so he sighed helplessly, picked up the red wine he had prepared and took a sip.
He asked: "How did you know?"
Edward pointed to the sky: "God, they told me that our world is just a star in the sky, and every other star represents a world, but some worlds have no life, and some worlds have surpassed. natural."
"And when I was investigating you, I found that you didn't leave any traces in this world, and the inheritance power on your body is also very special. Obviously you are from another world."
"..."
Zhang Yun asked again: "Then do you know how I got here?"
Edward shook his head and said: "I don't know, maybe it is the higher existence similar to those outside gods who cast you into this world, or maybe you came here through the void crack by mistake."
"or……"
"You came here by your own strength?"
Edward looked at Zhang Yun: "I don't know what happened. I don't know the outside gods. You have to ask yourself."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Zhang Yun touched her forehead, and then said, "Well, let’s leave it aside for now, and continue with the previous topic. After the ancient war, you, as a god, inserted the sword in the mortal world. Your duty is to eliminate everything. Inheritor, what does this have to do with your joining Archid?"
"and also!"
"Are you not going to purge me now?"
Edward explained slowly: "Don't worry, I will say it slowly, you will listen slowly, what will happen after that."
...
At the end of the ancient war, that is, when the remaining ancient evil gods were about to be completely sealed on the ancient battlefield, the outer gods suddenly descended into their true bodies and attacked all the inheritors.
Because the incident happened suddenly and the inheritors were fighting the remnants of the ancient evil gods, and the outer gods were well prepared, and their strength far surpassed those ancient evil gods, there were still many traitors in the inheritance team who decided to follow the outer gods.
Therefore, there was no accident in this battle, it turned into a massacre, and almost all the inheritors died here.
Immediately afterwards, the victorious gods announced their ideas, saying that they wanted to keep the world in balance and no longer have the situation where the ancient evil gods ruled the world, so that they would make such a helpless move...
result.
This reason has won the support of most people.
And they also spontaneously participated in the work of erasing memory and history, tearing up ancient books, destroying all the buildings of ancient evil gods, symbols of inheritors, stone inscriptions recording events, and so on.
Finally, under the large-scale magic created by the gods, the memory of the ancient evil gods and inheritance in people's minds disappeared without a trace, and the world only left the gods who saved the common people from the hands of monsters...
The Sacred Sect was also established since then, most of them are ordinary believers who sing the praises of the gods, and a small part are special existences that have not been erased from their memories-the God's Punishment Army.
In the following millennia, the human world continued to change, and various kingdoms developed, fought, annexed, and destroyed, and became the most powerful race in this world.
The Divine Punishment Army also wandered in the dark, eliminating any powerful inheritance that would cause turmoil, and was not known to the world, even most of the high-level members of the Divine Life Order.
...
"but……"
At this point, Edward stopped, looked directly at Zhang Yun, and suddenly changed his words: "Zhang Yun, do you know the definition of the two words rules? In other words, why did the apple fall to the ground and why did the water fall? Flow down?"
Hearing Edward's question, Zhang Yun hesitated a little, because he didn't know whether there was a concept of gravity in this world, and he didn't know if discussing "gravity" in the wizarding world would seem abnormal.
However, he then thought, since Edward even knows his identity as a traverser, he should be able to accept this "scientific theory" that does not belong to the magical world, right?
Therefore, Zhang Yun said: "Gravity, everything will fall towards the ground without the influence of other external forces, whether it is running water or an apple on a tree."
Edward came to be interested: "Gravity? Is this your world's definition of where things fall?"
After a pause, Edward realized that there are more important things now, so he returned to the previous topic: "Well, this is actually irrelevant... Anyway, it is a kind of rule. A rule has been set and cannot be violated. I am so Say you can understand?"
Zhang Yun nodded: "I understand."
Edward continued: "The water flows down, the apples will fall to the ground, your clothes will get wet when it rains, and creatures must eat... These are all rules, and they have been fixed long ago. You cannot use ordinary means. break in."
"If you break these rules, the world will be messed up and everything will go wrong."
Hearing this, Zhang Yun imagined that if the river flows to a high place, the rain floats from the bottom up, hushing and riding his face...
I feel that this kind of world will indeed cause big problems...
Big problem...
Regardless of Zhang Yun, Edward continued: "Same."
"The development of a world has long been determined. It will be a matter of time before which people are in it, which things are in it, and which people will discover which things."
"Like a lake with only fish, they live steadily in it, big fish eat small fish, big fish lay eggs, small fish eat fish eggs, small fish become big fish, big fish eat each other... as long as the outside world does not happen Great changes, they will maintain this balance forever."
After a pause, Edward's tone became low: "And now."
"A group of farmers found this lake. They came here and wanted something in the lake, but that group of big fish is very troublesome. If they go down to the lake themselves, they will be bitten and seriously injured."
"So, they used some small tricks to confuse the small fish that were eaten by feeding them special bait to make them bigger and stronger, then attacked in groups, killing the big fish that originally controlled the lake, and waited. When the little fishes are exhausted, catch them with fishing nets..."
"Finally, the farmer left with what he wanted. There are only small fish left in the lake. No big fish will eat them anymore, but they will never eat the eggs laid by the big fish. They will never grow up. ."
"Without the protection of the big fish, this lake is like a ready-made dining table. As long as the creatures outside the lake come here, they can have a good meal and eat all the small fish in the lake. "
"that's it."
"The rules are broken, tampered with, and there will be problems one day..."
Hearing this, Zhang Yun probably understood, and asked: "You want to say that the outer is a farmer, the ancient evil is a big fish, and we are all small fish among them? Inheritance...is it fish eggs?"
Edward nodded and said: "Well, almost, but my analogy may not be appropriate, some places will not fit... Sorry, I made you laugh."
Zhang Yun ignored some of the loopholes in Edward’s metaphor, but continued to ask: "Then you help Archid, in fact, you want to let it out so that the lake reappears with big fish and lays fish eggs? And order to return to the previous mode?"
Edward said, "Yes, nor is it."
Zhang Yun: "?"
After a pause, Edward explained, "Because the gods are not just like farmers, they just walk away after taking things."
"On the contrary, they built houses next to the lake and settled down, constantly observing the schools of fish in the lake, looking for small fish that might become big fish."
"Once they are found, they will be sent to siege and kill the small fish who obeyed their bewitching, and will not give the opponent any chance to grow up."
"The reason for this..."
"It's because these farmers are afraid that small fish will become big fish, and then big fish will evolve into murlocs, and then they will go ashore and eventually take their place."
"Yes!"
"These farmers come from another lake!"
"They were originally just big fish in the lake, but they found the opportunity to walk ashore, evolve into murlocs, then create clothes and shoes, and eventually become farmers in the eyes of the fish."
"In addition to this lake where there are no big fish, this group of farmers also control countless lakes without big fish. Every lake has experienced the same thing. The small fish becomes the new big fish and kills the old big fish. The big fish was executed by the farmer, and the farmer controlled the lake to prevent new big fish from being born."
"..."
Hearing this, Zhang Yun frowned and asked, "It means that the so-called maintenance of balance by the outer gods is just an excuse. They are just afraid that you will continue to grow, and then when you have enough strength, eliminate them?
"And your God Punishment Army discovered this conspiracy, so you want to overthrow the rule of the outer gods and return the world to its original setting?"
"But you don't have this strength. You must rely on the power of the ancient evil gods to resist the outer gods, so you secretly helped the followers of Archid, wanting to liberate Archid and his followers?"
"This is why you betrayed the Holy City?"
Ah this! ?
So that's the case! ?
Hey, wait, something is wrong, there seem to be a few things that don’t make sense...
