Infinite reincarnation of glory

Chapter 596 ·Counterattack

Islands in the East China Sea, somewhere.

Mentalists integrate the images naturally derived from the depths of their souls into a whole. And called it the ‘Palace of the Heart’. To describe it in a literal sense, the so-called 'Palace of the Heart' is the palace of the heart, a barrier to thinking and a fortress of consciousness. It is a portrayal of an intellectual individual's ideas and emotional state. At the same time, it is also the most effective and important protection for this intellectual individual when facing external mental attacks.

There are naturally guards in the palace, and the guards are the embodiment of the individual's sense of security and psychological support. They are not complete shields, and sometimes can even serve as spearheads for attack. No matter which one their functions tend to be, their essence naturally contains all the trust and expectations of the mental body.

This is a relatively common phenomenon.

Of course, there are also uncommon times.

Although the Heart Palace is a general concept, not everyone is qualified to possess it. The vast majority of weak creatures only have a "humble room in the heart" at best, and they want to become a palace and a domain. Then this individual should at least have a considerable mental strength that is enough to distinguish it from ordinary sentient beings.

Mental strength.

Strong is not exactly the same as firm.

Once an individual with sufficient strength loses control, it will naturally become a greater disaster than when an ordinary person falls. And on the eve of losing control, there are quite simple and clear signs to use.

That is the flipping of the Heart Palace.

The palace became purgatory and the guards became jailers. The more powerful and fragile an individual is, the more clearly he can experience his own collapse and corruption. Everything is slowly but surely tending to its most distorted appearance. And this is not only the torture for the overturned person, but also the last struggle of the powerful person. The scars will also become a trial at this moment, and the winner will have everything again, and the loser will lose everything.

A purgatory with one last chance.

And someone is in purgatory right now.

……………………

Luo Gan Dao is in purgatory.

He opened his eyes, feeling a little confused and dazed deep in his consciousness. What came into view were the ruins of a dilapidated and burning city, while his companions were fighting against their former allies.

The old days, the old days are even close at hand.

"Luo Gandao! Deal with them quickly!"

He saw the reincarnations of the sandbank and their army of servants coming like a tide, and he saw countless souls withering. The bodies of the dead were seen piling up and the bones scattered about. He saw that his companions were locked in a bitter battle. Victory might not be far away, but they were temporarily in a stalemate. He knows that he is the most critical weight, and as long as he invests, he can end this victory or defeat.

Because I am strong.

The intensity of his all-out effort is equivalent to half of the East China Sea or even slightly more.

As long as he goes all out, he can of course kill all the Sandbank Samsaras in a very short time. And then everything can get back on track, the betrayers will be punished, the elements of destruction will be eliminated, and then, Donghai can harvest at least part of the early results from the ruins.

It was the other party who made the first move.

It was the Dragon Knight of Ximei who raided Donghai's headquarters, forcing himself to expose his power and EVA.

It was the reincarnations in Shazhou and Ximei who broke through the defenses on their own, claiming to have been betrayed. It was they who took the initiative to tear up the alliance and plunged the entire world, which was clearly on the right track to peace, into war again.

It's their fault.

As a matter of course, I can take everything from them and turn all these betrayers into subplots and bonus points. To achieve all this, you only need to put down your scruples at this moment and go all out.

Destroy everything... no, just destroy everything of the enemy.

Kill them all and all the loot will be a righteous harvest. The price is just the hundreds of millions of lives that have been lost, and that is entirely the fault of Shazhou and Ximei!

So……

"No, there is still room for redemption!" - he heard himself saying that.

Full of confidence and full of momentum.

"I will end this mess, I will rebuild everything that is destroyed." - He saw himself stupidly stretching out his hands and grabbing at the sky. The EVA behind him acted together.

"I will bring all the dead people back to this world! This battle should not have happened from the beginning. There must be some misunderstanding between us. And since you are unwilling to talk to me, then, Just under my power, listen to me!”

Luo Gandao looked at himself. My old self.

His mind was wailing deep in his body, but he could only watch his former self confidently open the door to his soul, trying to rebuild everything that had been destroyed. He saw a huge crimson portal unfolding above his head, and saw gravitational abnormalities pouring into all parts of the world as the power of God's container was released.

The sky and the earth were dyed deep red at this...that moment.

The enemy attacked desperately while the companions tried their best to stop it. Because they believed in the success of his tactics just as he believed in himself.

The pulse of the soul sea has been taken into control, and he has also eaten the fruit of life and wisdom. Next, it's just a matter of synchronizing with the entire world and driving it like EVA. What followed was naturally the effect he expected.

——But I failed.

The crimson portal suddenly burst apart, and a tide like blood surged around. In the changing expressions of everyone, the clear sea surface turned into the deep red of protoplasm in an instant. The soldiers on the battlefield, the clerks who evacuated the crowd, the refugees praying in fear, and all living creatures outside of it, all disintegrated into protoplasmic wine in an instant.

Deep red covered the ground in an instant, and everything in sight was melted in an instant.

Luo Gandao saw Malak on the sandbank looking at him with disbelief. The enemy reincarnator, who seemed to be fighting for his life just a moment ago, actually lost all fighting spirit at this moment.

"Ha." Luo Gandao heard Malik's voice and heard what followed.

"I heard what you said."

The captain of Shazhou turned around and left with his men. But the reincarnations of the East China Sea Team, who were still fighting with them just a moment ago, just watched helplessly as they made such moves.

"Captain." He heard Yamanaka say to him in a tone that seemed to be pleading. "……Why?"

Darkness overwhelmed him.

The darkness overwhelmed him countless times.

It is difficult to tell whether what is happening in front of you is real or illusory. The only thing Luo Gandao could be sure of was the pain and doubt that lingered deep in his heart.

--I failed.

——Why did I... fail?

——Obviously, all the steps are already familiar by heart, and I have even succeeded in the world of Jianfeng Legend before. It is clear that the pan-consciousness of the world has no resistance to me and even has a lot of help. I was obviously in excellent condition, not injured or overworked, not burdened with any curses, and full of confidence.

Luo Gandao didn't understand.

He reviewed it again and again in his mind, and deduced it again and again. He never understood.

He found his omission - he was distracted for a moment when he was in the synchronized world, and poured some murderous intention into the world impact that should not have been there. Then, the world fulfilled its request.

Undirected killing intent is directed at all things, so all things are killed for this reason.

But why did I make such a childish mistake, a battlefield distraction that even the most junior mecha pilots wouldn't make?

——I don’t understand.

– But there’s always a reason.

——Maybe...it's because I'm weaker than I think.

Self-doubt is the beginning of mental collapse. The next step is self-denial.

"If... I didn't have the idea of ​​saving everyone at that time. Instead, I just wanted to clear away the reincarnations in the sandbank. Then would everything be different?"

The scene in front of me turned back to the scene where it all started. However, this time I did not use World Impact. Because there was no need to go to that extent to eliminate the Sandbank team - he saw the EVA with full firepower tearing apart the Ahura Mazda incarnation of the Sandbank captain, and then the remaining miscellaneous fish were quickly eliminated. And although he couldn't hold back, the damage stopped there.

That seemed like the right path.

Speaking of which, it seemed like he should have taken that path.

...that's right. Why should we care about other people's lives and deaths? It’s just a matter of working hard to get to know familiar people. Why would you take risks for strangers who you don’t know their names or faces, and have never even had physical eye contact with, and use tricks that may cause all kinds of disasters?

"...Didn't I, from the very beginning, think that it would be okay as long as I lived?"

Memories are constantly flipping over, and consciousness is constantly flowing back. He seemed to have returned to the scene before he was chosen by the Lord God - on the racing track, the car was out of control, he wanted to live, and the audience was the only buffer he could touch.

A girl died because of it. I lost my career, my reputation, my future and many friendships. I survived, it was a heavy loss but it was better than nothing. However, the girl's eyes before she died appeared in his dreams day after day.

Luo Gandao had not dreamed of that girl for a long time.

Ever since he took over the East China Sea Team and started trying to save the world. He never dreamed about it again. But now, he felt like he was seeing her again. And that broken face, with only the outline of a human figure visible above the bridge of the nose, was staring at him like many nights in the past.

And uttered silent anger, and confusion.

【Why? 】

The answer "I want to live" lingers on the lips, but cannot be said.

The only thing Luo Gandao could do was to remain silent with a wry smile.

Xiao Honglu just told him not long ago that his "inner desire to survive is stronger than anyone else." So... in fact, the so-called 'mistake' was just that he inadvertently exposed his true colors?

Want to live.

He doesn't care even if he kills everyone for this.

This murderous intention born out of the desire to survive is rooted deep in his soul. Therefore, the world will create such results when it synchronizes.

"So, in the end, everything is my fault." Luo Gandao said softly, saying to himself.

He knew that his body was actually still in the base of Donghai, and he knew that he had just expanded the absolute realm. All external interactions are closed off in a way that appears to be autistic. He even knew that all his companions were trying to wake him up, and they didn't even pay attention to the many things that should be paid attention to in the team battle.

It might also be okay to respond to them.

If you want to, it's not impossible to get out from here and continue fighting.

but……

"It's really difficult to face the ugliest version of yourself. So..."

"So be it."

He wanted to stay here for a while. This 'for a while' can also be forever.

Everything in front of him changed again, and he returned to the racing track again. There was an abnormal noise from the car beneath him, and in the only auditorium that could serve as a buffer, there was a corner where the crowd was extremely sparse.

There was only one girl sitting there.

So next...

The tactile feel of the directional grip is once again present in the palm of the hand. And this time, I should also——

He got stuck.

The moment he was about to pull the handle like his old self. In the audience, he saw the girl's intact face for the first time. And that face...

"……team leader?"

He saw the woman.

He saw Ishiboin Ruka, the former captain of the Tokai team, sitting quietly on his seat with an expressionless face. An ordinary plastic chair was as solemn as a throne at this moment!

That girl, it's her! ?

Therefore, she was not actually dead at that time! ?

The flawed logic appeared in Luo Gandao's mind at this moment. However, no matter how nonsense he was, it didn't stop him from taking action subconsciously. The palm of his hand that was pulling the handle suddenly froze, and the next moment, he crashed into the building outside the auditorium!

'boom--! ! ! ’

Explosion, bad choice.

Someone who shouldn't be there appeared here, and this prevented him from taking that step of autistic isolation!

"what the hell!?"

In the square of the Celestial Team, Luo Wei stared at the changes on the notepad with her mouth open. She has clearly driven this quasi-fourth middle school student with a flaw in his heart to the edge of obsession and delayed the Arctic team's actions. It is clear that the next scene should be the out-of-control EVA massacre around the world.

But why is this cooked duck...

"Shifangyuan Liuge!" She turned her head suddenly. She didn't realize that her mood was becoming much more exciting than usual. "You traitor!"

The next moment, the pen under her hand was already turning.

【record】

[At this moment, at this moment, Shifangyuan Liuge appears here! 】

The ethereal and lonely girl's form suddenly appeared from the void. Not far away, was Luo Yinglong, whose eyes lit up when he heard Luo Wei's voice!

‘Zheng——’

The sword light flows.

……………………

The third weakness.

Chu Xuan was able to understand how to use the Conferred Gods List and achieve the best results at the lowest cost. However, his opponent and her strength were not completely on equal footing.

There are high and low carriers of power.

There are also differences between upper and lower users of power.
