I Am God!

Coastside.

In the wind and rain, Shajin stood proudly on the reef, as if fighting against the sea and the storm.

His eyes were focused and serious, just like the heroic statues placed in the Temple Square of the Ewell Peninsula. He remained unmoved despite suffering raining down on him.

Suddenly, a beam of light from the lighthouse behind him shone down and fell on Sha Jin.

Then, an angry voice came from above.

"What are you doing standing there, you lazy guy?"

"Why don't you hurry up and check the lights on No. 1, No. 2, and No. 4 reefs? Are you a sail beast?"

"I have to whip you twice before you know how to move twice?"

The voice was full of energy, as if you could imagine the image of a bearded strong man just by listening to it.

Sha Jin turned around and shouted: "Such a heavy rain."

The voice said: "It's nothing if it rains. If you can't find out the situation at sea, people will die and a big accident will happen."

Shajin finally made preparations and took off in the wind and rain.

He still flew smoothly in the strong wind, and even though his vision was unclear, he quickly arrived at a rock in the distance.

Sha Jin immediately fell down, opened the small door of the lighthouse built with dark stone, and went up to inspect it.

Items to be checked include various conditions such as fuel, brightness, damage, etc.

"no problem."

After a lot of work, the dirty Sha Jin left the reef.

He wiped the water on his face that was either sweat or rain, and immediately followed the route skillfully to the next rock, repeating the previous work.

He is already very familiar with the situation here, and it seems that he can find the location of every reef and lighthouse with his eyes closed.

Ten years ago, he was assigned to work at a seaside lighthouse on this island, and he was not the only one guarding the tower, there was another old man.

The function of a lighthouse is not only to help ships that are lost in the dark find their way, but also has many other functions.

For example.

When you see a red light on the route, go to the left, and when the green light is on, go to the right. This can guide the direction to avoid the ship hitting the rocks and running aground.

Lighthouses in different places also have different functions. Some are used to guide people into the port, some are used to warn reefs, and some are used to convey information.

The different flashing frequencies of the lighthouse have different meanings, and can even provide early warning through lights, or convey detailed information.

On the sea in this era, the role of lighthouses is extremely important, protecting the lives of ships and crews.

But it has to be said that keeping a lighthouse is an extremely hard and boring job.

Return to the five-story lighthouse on the island's shore.

Sha Jin didn't stop either. He carried the oil drum upstairs. The bearded old man who was turning the hinge downstairs started talking again.

He said: "You useless guy, the inspection was so slow today."

Sha Jin: "I'm not a useless guy."

Old man: "If you're not a useless guy, why would you come here to guard the lighthouse?"

Sha Jin: "Humph~"

He was too lazy to tell the old man how he understood the great mission he shouldered and what he was doing.

But the more Sha Jin thought about it, the angrier he became. When he carried the barrel to the top, he shouted from above.

"Then aren't you here to guard the lighthouse?"

The old man admitted readily: "I am an old man, eating here and waiting to die. If I were as young as you, I would never come here."

"I was not like you before. When I was young, I was a lookout and scout of the adventuring fleet."

Sha Jin was a little curious: "So what kind of adventures have you experienced?"

But the old man said: "A guy with no blood and courage like you is not worthy of listening to my story."

Sha Jin was furious, but couldn't say anything.

He is a dignified alchemical pharmacist, a person of extraordinary power, and a devout person assigned by the gods to come here to search for traces of the supreme god.

Now that he was despised by a stinky old man, he wished he could let the other person off the spot and make him kneel on the ground crying for his father and mother.

But these conjectures only flashed through my mind and turned into calm.

He scratched his head helplessly: "I can't help it. I'm not good at dealing with people. The job of guarding the lighthouse suits me best."

The old man snorted coldly: "It's worthless."

After finishing everything, the old man went up to watch the light of the lighthouse and always pay attention to the sea. At this time, Sha Jin could finally take a rest.

Beside the small bed in the room, Sha Jin lit the lamp.

He took out a notebook and recorded the various changes in the North Sea and the Primitive Ocean today. This was work he had to do every day.

In addition, he would go deep into the depths of the primitive ocean every few months to observe the changes in the black storm.

In addition to his own observations, he would also collect information from passing ships and sailors. He wrote down all the potentially useful information about the ocean.

In the blink of an eye, Sha Jin has been in Iceberg City for so many years.

The books he recorded were piled up like a hill, but no matter what kind of news he sent back, there was no response.

This is normal, because most of the information he collected is irrelevant. At least he still doesn't understand what is in the black storm.

But no matter what, he wrote his records seriously and completed his tasks without any slack.

"Dong dong dong dong~"

Early the next morning.

Sha Jin was awakened by a violent knock on the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the old man putting a list and a stack of paper money in his hand.

"Go, here is the purchase order, and there is money."

Sha Jin took the money and yawned and flew out of the lighthouse. The old man was injured when he was young and could no longer fly.

Therefore, many tasks must be completed by Sha Jin, including maintenance and procurement, and the latter is Sha Jin's favorite thing.

At this time, he can go to Iceberg City.

Iceberg City is built at the foot of the snow-capped mountains in the distance. A long time ago, this was just an uninhabited island on the Northern Sea Route. The first person to discover this place is said to be a snake-man captain named Briman.

It was he who led his Platinum fleet to discover the Primitive Ocean and named it.

legend.

He once entered the black storm and saw the end of the world inside.

Sha Jin didn't know if that was true, but he just heard it from passing sailors and adventurers.

As soon as Sha Jin entered the city, he saw that everyone in the city recognized Sha Jin, and many people were greeting him.

Although it is said to be a city, Iceberg City is actually about the same as a small town. It has a small population, not even as large as a small town in the prosperous area of ​​Ruhe Island.

roadside.

A woman from the tavern leaned against the door: "Sha Jin, come to my place for a drink, and I'll make it cheaper for you."

Sha Jin said: "Okay, okay, I want to buy something else first and come back later."

In fact, his body is far away from there. That tavern is a gold-eating beast. The money he earns from guarding the lighthouse every month is not enough to have a few drinks. The lack of supplies on such a remote island is unimaginable, especially drinks. s things.

Moreover, the female owner of the tavern is not easy to mess with.

But the charming tavern owner waved and winked at Sha Jin: "Then I'll wait for you."

Sha Jin trembled and ran away.

He felt that if there were two types of the most beautiful women, one was the legendary bright angel from heaven, then the other must be the fallen angel from the abyss, which would make people have evil thoughts in their hearts.

Sha Jin finally came to the grocery store and looked around.

Finding that there was only one child in the store, he asked, "Where is your father?"

The child pointed to the distance: "I went fishing. I haven't made much money recently. My mother is sick again. Going to other places for medical treatment requires more money."

Sha Jin nodded and touched the child's head: "It doesn't matter, your mother's illness is not serious. Go to the mainland and find a witch doctor in a big city, and you can definitely cure her."

Although he said so, whether it was going to the mainland or finding a witch doctor for treatment, it was not a simple matter.

Ferry tickets to the mainland are expensive, and one ticket is expensive.

The number of witch doctors is sparse and their paths are different. For some complex diseases, it is difficult to find a witch doctor who specializes in treating the disease.

Then, Sha Jin took out the purchase order and told the other party: "I want this."

There are not many things, but the wad of money is consumed. This is the price of goods on the island.

Rather than collecting money, sometimes familiar people on the island prefer to barter.

This also allows us to know the situation on the island. Very few outsiders are willing to come to this island. In the beginning, the people on the island were all people who were exiled here for various reasons.

And those living on the island today are the descendants of those people.

On the surface, Sha Jin and the old man are not considered to be people on this island. They are just a job guarding the lighthouse. One day they don't do this job or they may leave after the job is done.

But judging from the old man's appearance, he is planning to spend his old age here.

Sha Jin has lived here for ten years, and the people on the island basically regard him as one of the people here.

On the way back, Sha Jin passed by the only pharmacy on the island.

Carrying a heavy bag, Sha Jin entered the pharmacy and looked around, looking at the bottles and jars in the glass display window and smelling the strange smell.

It seems that he is somewhat intoxicated.

The clerk in the pharmacy was a girl younger than Sha Jin. At this time, she walked out of the pharmacy, showed a very standard smile, and then made a routine inquiry.

"Want to buy medicine?"

"Or see a doctor?"

If the owner of the tavern is a fallen angel, then the pharmacy clerk in white clothes in front of him must be an angel of light.

Of course, it may also be because there are not many young women on the island.

There are even fewer beautiful ones, and these two are the only ones Sha Jin can encounter on a daily basis.

Sha Jin raised his head and looked at the other party, shaking his head: "No."

The girl smiled and asked, "Would you rather take a look?"

Sha Jin smiled sheepishly. He did come over often to take a look, but he never bought.

On the surface, he just said he was curious.

In fact, it's because Sha Jin is also an alchemical pharmacist. Although he has not refined potions for many years and has never shown his power, he has never stopped practicing.

Here, the pharmacy is the only place where he can get access to medicine.

Even if the medicine placed here is witchcraft.

But the familiar crucibles, flasks, test tubes and smells reminded Sha Jin of his long-lasting college life, everything he had done in the college, and the friends who practiced together.

Sha Jin walked around and then saw a strange smell coming from behind the curtain in the side room. Sha Jin just sniffed it and then looked at the clerk.

He was a little surprised: "Are you trying to refine witch medicine?"

The other party nodded: "Witch medicine is very powerful. With witch medicine, you can cure diseases. Otherwise, even if the doctor sees what the disease is, there is no way to cure it."

"However, the witch medicine is too expensive and there is simply not enough."

"I just wanted to give it a try and see if I could make it myself."

The other party seemed to have analyzed some ingredients of the witch medicine and wanted to make it in his own way.

Sha Jin couldn't help laughing: "Hahahaha, how is this possible?"

"The witch doctor is a witch medicine made with extraordinary power. How can you make it like this?"

The clerk was a little embarrassed and didn't say anything. He just closed the curtain to prevent Sha Jin from looking at his burned crucible inside.

Although Sha Jin felt that the other party was a bit whimsical, he felt that the other party's thoughts really moved him.

He couldn't help but remind him a few words: "You can't do this, you can do this..."

Sha Jin couldn't help but teach the other party a few tricks. Although he was not a witch doctor, he had a wide range of knowledge after systematic training at the Alchemy Academy. He also knew the secrets of witch medicine and the methods of making witch medicine.

The clerk in white tried the Shajin method and said in surprise: "Does it really work?"

Sha Jin looked at the finished product in the test tube and shook his head: "The effect is much worse."

The clerk in white asked Sha Jin: "How do you know this is okay?"

Sha Jin's expression suddenly changed, and then he said: "I don't know how to refine witch medicine, but I often hear sailors on those ships say this. They have drunk a lot of witch medicine, and some large adventure fleets have even There is a witch doctor on board.”

The other party nodded in confusion: "Yes, those sailors know a lot."

Sha Jin left in a hurry.

After returning to the lighthouse.

Sha Jin locked the door tightly, took out some alchemy tools he had used before, put them together, and fiddled with them left and right.

He smiled at first, but by the end he sighed.

Sha Jin's eyes were a little confused.

He had studied potion and alchemy for so many years, but in the end he couldn't put it to any use.

He went to a foreign country when he was young and studied hard day after day and year after year amid the bells of dawn and candlelight in the dark nights before he acquired the knowledge he wanted. He once thought he could achieve something. At least something can be done.

In the end, he just worked as a lighthouse keeper on an inaccessible island. After so many years, he accomplished nothing.

——

A few days later, Sha Jin came to the city again.

At the only pier on the ship, Sha Jin found a few sailors, chatted with them, and then casually asked some questions.

"Breeman?"

"Never heard of it!"

Sha Jin said: "Many years ago, he was the first person to discover this island!"

The other party immediately shouted: "Platinum, I've heard of this!"

Sha Jin nodded: "Yes, that's right, Briman is the captain of the Platinum."

After recalling everything in the academy a few days ago and recalling that he was still an alchemical pharmacist, Sha Jin suddenly had a strong desire to complete his task and mission again.

Sha Jin really wants to know more about the Platinum adventure ship, because it is the only ship that has entered the black storm, and it should be the only one who came back alive.

There should be no one in this world who can understand the secrets and truth inside it better than them!

Actually, a long time ago.

He wanted to investigate the people on that ship. He felt that since the other party had completed such a great adventure, the crew members on it must be famous.

Even if they are all gone now, at least there should be many stories left behind, or their descendants can be found.

But, it's a pity.

Sha Jin asked many people and investigated everywhere, but still found nothing.

The ship was like a fleeting firework. After leaving a rich legend and fireworks in history, it disappeared like clouds of smoke.

As for the extremely powerful Captain of the Platinum, he might be the mysterious figure Briman in the apostle realm, and Sha Jin also couldn't find him at all.

But now, he has begun a new round of investigation.

Unknowingly, a man stepped off the boat docked at the dock and came to Sha Jin, who was recording something in his notebook.

The other party shouted: "Sha Jin!"

Sha Jin immediately turned his head and shouted in surprise: "Why are you here?"

The person who came turned out to be one of his former roommates at Ganye Alchemy Academy, the handsome wingman who said that the gods would also treat him preferentially because of his appearance.

But now the other party looks a lot rougher, with a mustache, and the whole person is not as refined as when she was a boy, just like a beautiful woman.

But even though the other party had changed so much, Sha Jin still recognized him at a glance without any hesitation in his tone.

He was extremely certain that it was the other person.

Sha Jin stepped forward excitedly, and he repeated it again happily.

"Why did you come here?"

Mustache looked at Shajin's face, which had become a little rough due to the weather and weather: "I passed by here on a mission, so I stopped by to see you."

Sha Jin was extremely happy today. He completed today's task at least several times faster than usual, and then asked for leave from the old man.

He even reluctantly bought a bottle of wine to celebrate the reunion with his old friends.

The wine is not good wine, and the drinker is not good either.

But the two of them ate extremely deliciously, as if there was no better delicacy in the world.

Sha Jin's face turned red before he took a few sips.

He talked at least ten times more than usual, and kept chattering. The two of them spoke to each other, and their movements seemed a bit exaggerated.

The two of them were talking and laughing at every turn.

Although.

There is nothing funny about those words to outsiders.

There seemed to be no strange feeling between the two of them, and there was even an indescribable tacit understanding between their words.

Friendships between men are sometimes very strange. They can not see or contact someone for many years, but they still say that person is his best brother.

When they meet again, they will still be as cordial as before.

I can clearly know what you want to say, and I can also feel your emotions, just like when we were teenagers.

Their friendship does not change with time and years.

Looking at the scenery outside the lighthouse, Mustache couldn't help but say.

“It’s pretty good here.”

"At least, it's quiet, and there's no danger or worry."

Sha Jin: "You're telling me, if you come here and stay here for a month or two, you'll probably feel like you're going crazy."

After saying that, Sha Jin looked at the other party with envy.

"You returned to your hometown, and you must have accomplished great things now!"

The other party became silent.

Sha Jin looked at Mustache's face and suddenly understood something, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Sha Jin poured the other party a glass of wine, and then asked about those people who used to be in Ganye Alchemy Academy.

The mustache said: "Dead."

Sha Jin: "Dead?"

Mustache nodded: "Dead."

Sha Jin stood up: "Are they all dead?"

Mustache said: "They are all dead."

Mustache seemed to think that was not right, so he added.

"The ones you mentioned are all dead."

Sha Jin was a little dazed: "How could it be possible? They were so good back then."

Sha Jin seemed to find it difficult to accept such news. This was different from what he had imagined. In his imagination, these people should all be successful.

In his dream, he might be envious and jealous, he might sigh, and he might wonder why it wasn't me who was sent there in the first place.

But when he learned that the other party was dead, Sha Jin felt extremely uncomfortable.

Mustache looked at Sha Jin's expression and said another thing: "You know, the third child is very powerful now."

Sha Jin turned his head and said, "Lao San?"

"By the way, where is he now?"

"Is he doing well now?"

Mustache nodded and told Sha Jin: "He was sent back a long time ago and stayed in the Ewell Peninsula. He is completely different from us guys. He is very important."

Sha Jin laughed, took a deep breath, and then picked up the wine glass: "Okay, okay, I didn't expect that he, who was the most ordinary at the beginning, would be the best among us."

Sha Jin was happy for the other party, but also a little envious.

"I don't know when I will be transferred back."

Mustache laughed and patted Sha Jin on the shoulder.

"It's impossible."

"You will never be transferred back. Those guys have forgotten about you a long time ago."

Sha Jin immediately retorted: "How is that possible? I came here with a mission."

Mustache said: "Isn't it just to find the secret in the depths of the Black Storm? Legend has it that the supreme god exists there, right?"

Sha Jin was so shocked that he stood up: "How do you know?"

The other party shook his head: "Who doesn't know? Do you think it's a secret?"

"At first, the chief and second-ranking officials of the temple were at loggerheads over this issue because of the struggle for interests and power. A small issue turned into a big problem in the end."

"There is no other way. In the end, we can only declare this matter as a formal mission and send a person to station here all the time."

"Allowing them to have a step down also eases the conflict."

"No one takes this matter seriously, and no one really thinks you can find anything here, or wait for anything."

Mustache looked at his old friend, Sha Jin, who was high-spirited and extremely proud when he was a teenager.

"Shajin."

"Don't say ten years, even if you wait for a hundred years, you may not be able to wait for a thousand years."

"Time is like a breeze at the fingertips to the gods, but to us it is a violent storm, wearing away us every moment."

"Can you afford to wait?"

Sha Jin was silent. He finally looked at Mustache's face.

"I believe that the gods guiding me here must be effective."

"My efforts, my presence."

"It must be working."

"It also makes sense."

He repeated the same meaning several times.

Mustache picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp, then placed it heavily on the table.

He held his head with one hand, and his face showed the same indifferent smile as when he was a boy.

"Don't be so serious."

"Shajin!"

"We are not important to this world, and many things do not depend on us."

"The gods don't need us, and they don't need you."

"He can't see us at all."

Sha Jin was silent.

He may have understood a long time ago that it was not an important mission at all, and he was just an insignificant role.

He has long been forgotten, and no one remembers him as a guy who was exiled to the depths of the sea.

But he made a covenant, and he has come here, and has stayed here for ten years.

He has paid too much for this matter, too much for an ordinary person to give up. How many ten years can an ordinary person have?

It is still the most critical and best ten years of life.

——

The sun falls into the desert.

In the boundless sea of ​​sand, a huge tower is connecting to the sky, opening a passage to the sky.

In the huge cloud vortex, airships passed through the sea of ​​clouds and hid in them.

Ossis stands at the top of the Tower of Babel, behind him is a huge and complex sphere, shining with the light of miracles.

Ossis said to the clover beside him: "Another success."

Over the years, he has spent almost all his energy on building Sky Harbor, the City of Magic Network, and improving the universal manufacturing machine and the reincarnation of the three-leaf people.

Now wherever the Sky Ladder can reach, he has built skyports one after another at several destinations.

Starting from the giant island of Ruh, it connects to Tugezman in the Land of Light and the Desert of the Fall of the Sun.

Connecting the whole world.

Osis: "The next one should be over there in the North Pole!"

The three-leaf man on the side nodded: "It's just that the entrance and exit of the sky ladder there should be inside the black storm!"

"And, that place..."

The Sanye man wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

Ossis knew what he wanted to say, though.

Finally, he looked at the distant north and said.

"Mirror of Heaven!"
