Colonial Suit

#913 - Destiny in Progress

"The name Black Tide originated from that prophecy. It's a summary of the scenes depicted in the prophecy. Before that, no one had ever seen the Black Tide, nor could they have known the cause of its appearance or the possible consequences. So, their fear of the Black Tide actually stemmed from fear of that person and the race he represented. It was a biological, instinctive reaction."

"You and I both know that this fear isn't wrong," the Speaker said eloquently, meeting the sharp gaze of the blood-red eyes. "But many people have forgotten, does the prophecy of the Black Tide truly center on that person?"

A flicker passed through the blood-red eyes, and he lowered his head to look at the wine glass in front of him. "What do you mean?"

"Just a hypothesis."

The Speaker shook his head, seemingly organizing his thoughts. "I know this is difficult to understand, so let me put it another way. The Black Tide comes from prophecy, but it doesn't belong to prophecy. Because it signifies the Great Destruction. If it belonged to prophecy, wouldn't that mean that person decided the Great Destruction ten thousand years ago? Or that he had the ability to trigger the Great Destruction?"

"That's certainly impossible, because he wouldn't possess that kind of power. Even his race couldn't do it."

As he spoke, the Speaker stood up and paced back and forth. "So, I've been thinking about where the root of the Black Tide lies, and I've come to a conclusion."

"What conclusion?" Blood-eye asked.

"Coincidence."

The Speaker smiled slightly, but there was no hint of a smile in his eyes. "Or rather, something that seems like a coincidence."

"Alpha!" Blood-eye exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right," the Speaker nodded. "Exactly. Alpha, in our concept, is a civilization, a race, and also a cause and effect, a destiny. If anyone could decide today's world ten thousand years ago, decide when the universe ends, it would only be it. This mysterious, yet terrifying existence."

"That man merely spoke a predetermined sentence at a certain time and place, according to a certain destiny. So, he can't decide anything, because it was already arranged. And the chess piece to execute this destiny has also been chosen…"

Speaking up to here. The Speaker's smile disappeared, and a deep sorrow appeared in his eyes.

He placed both hands on the table and said slowly to Blood-eye, "That is us."

Bang!

The wine glass shattered in Blood-eye's hand, and he stared silently at his palm, speechless for a long time.

Although he had always been in a position of receiving, Blood-eye knew that the Speaker was right.

The chess pieces had already been decided.

Because only Blood-eye knew that the true occurrence of the Black Tide was not on the day of the human supply, but when Blood-eye entered the core of the Void Aggregate's rules! In the last second as he prepared to leave after establishing the passage for humanity and himself!

The Black Tide happened!

At that time, Blood-eye was preparing to retreat, but unexpectedly, a black spot appeared in the deepest part of the sub-rules, and then quickly spread! That was the Black Tide, the first occurrence of the Black Tide!! Because he was too close, Blood-eye was overwhelmed by the Black Tide without resistance, which caused his current injuries. The truth was that his injuries had nothing to do with the core of the rules, but with the Black Tide.

He was the first person in the universe to feel the power of the Black Tide!

Even today, Blood-eye couldn't forget the feeling at that time. It was as if his whole person had been thrown into the endless void, and all his rule senses, ability systems, and even his metaphysical powers were completely isolated. Even his abyssal power fell into slumber. He was like an ordinary person, feeling the cold and cruelty of darkness.

His body rapidly withered, and his vitality was drawn away, just like prey falling into the gaping maw of the Black Tide. If the Black Tide hadn't receded afterward, he probably wouldn't have survived.

That was the closest Blood-eye had ever come to death, and even now he could still feel that bone-chilling cold.

However… what Blood-eye was most concerned about was not the terror of the Black Tide, but the timing of its appearance.

For some reason, although the appearance of the Black Tide was extremely strange, Blood-eye felt that it was not accidental, as if it were a bomb that had been planted, hidden in the darkness, waiting for the moment to be triggered.

And he was the one who triggered the bomb.

A chess piece!

"You seem to have remembered something?"

The Speaker's faint voice came from his ear, and Blood-eye raised his head, then saw the Speaker's serious gaze. He thought for a moment, and then said seriously, "I can't be sure, but I think you're making some sense."

"Perhaps I can give you some help."

"Of course," Blood-eye nodded, and then described the scene at that time to the Speaker. Although this was his secret, he felt that it was more valuable to tell it at this moment.

He needed the Speaker, and the power of humanity.

Sure enough, after listening to Blood-eye's description, the Speaker fell into deep thought for a long time before saying, "The scene you described is about the same as I expected."

The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Jiu Shu Ba!

"Oh?" Blood-eye was stunned. What did that mean?

"Because you're not the only one who has had that feeling," the Speaker noticed Blood-eye's confusion and pointed to his nose. "Me too."

"You also encountered the Black Tide?"

"No, I just have the same feeling as you. On the day we entered the Second World. Although the Black Tide happened behind us, I felt that it seemed to have been there all along, just waiting for us, waiting for our arrival…"

"From this, I thought of many other things, such as the recent world situation. The Black Tide and that prophecy have made many civilizations hostile to us. If this is the effect the Black Tide wants, then what is it trying to achieve?"

As he spoke, the Speaker and Blood-eye's eyes met, and they both saw the fear in each other's eyes.

"War…"

"A war that will engulf the entire universe."

"From the Second World to the Seventh World, war will appear in all places where humans are. The Black Tide will place humanity in the position of an enemy of the universe, just like the Krodir a long time ago. At that time, the entire universe will unite to attack humanity, and humanity will fight for its own survival."

The Speaker's voice gradually became ethereal, his gaze lost focus, as if he saw that terrifying scene.

"The starry sky will burn, and the barriers between worlds will be broken. The conflicts between ancient and emerging civilizations will intensify. Humanity will gain some allies because of this, and also gain more enemies. They will fight in the starry sky, spreading destruction."

"Wherever humanity goes, the Black Tide will follow…"

"This is the role of the chess piece, as for why we were chosen… is that even necessary to say? In today's world, what other race can leave its footprints from the Second World to the Seventh World like humans? Our adaptability, our reproductive capacity, and even our desires, will become our original sin."

"Just like the ancient Krodir. We are just chess pieces, and weapons."

"From the day we were born…" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation..)
