Lost Narrative Poetry

In fact, Xia Ran still had some things she wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was unnecessary. Since the kimono girl didn't take the initiative to explain, it must not be a special secret. She could explore and verify it herself later.

The main reason is that he realizes that he doesn't have much time left——

Although all the elements have been prepared here, there is nothing, not even the concept of nothingness, let alone time. The fact that he can "exist" here is an extremely contradictory thing, thanks to the special nature of this place.

It is both the beginning and the end of everything. It records everything in this world and is the place where all causes roll around.

Because everything is ready, there is nothing - the state of convergence and diffusion is superimposed. The past, present and future are indistinguishable from each other. All contradictory things exist at the same time and are tolerated. The greatest and the smallest, the true and the To fantasy.

As long as you can reach here, you can have the true power of "god". This is true. But through simple proof by contradiction, it just shows that only the real "god" can reach here, because this is the seat of the Creator.

In addition, the living cannot reach the root no matter what. If a "human" individual can step in, the meaning of existence will disappear.

The reason why Xia Ran can appear here is because he is not a living person, he is dead.

After a person dies, his or her own soul loses its original body, while the projected soul returns to its source. The soul of knowledge alone does not have the ability to understand the source. Although the soul is close to the source, it lacks the intelligence to understand the source.

Therefore, only when a person has a soul at the same time can it be possible to recognize the root. People who have souls at the same time are alive and living, so there is absolutely no chance of contacting the root... This contradiction is that the living cannot reach it. Necessity of the first cause.

But...

He claimed to be God, imitated the Messiah, incarnated the Antichrist, fulfilled the Trinity, and died on the cross during the judgment on Good Friday, completing the key to this goal.

So he did die and fell into absolute nothingness...

But death is not the end, but just the beginning. It can even be said to be just a superficial process, because he will definitely be resurrected.

Basically, this is the case. By using the Pengci Bible system and cleverly "borrowing" the power of the Creator's religious concepts and mythological system, he got stuck in the bug, reached the source as a dead person, and then resurrected and became a living person again.

The most intuitive result of such repeated horizontal jumps is——

He reached the root and understood the ultimate knowledge, but did not lose the meaning of existence.

It did not disappear into the cause and effect of the infinite world, and all traces and records were wiped clean from the past, present and future.

But it is also because of this that there is only one opportunity for resurrection. He must leave before the time limit comes, so that he can return from nothingness intact and return to the world as a living person. If it is delayed...

He really can't go back.

Therefore, we must leave. After all, arriving here is just a bug. It does not mean that Xia Ran has truly reached the realm of omniscience and omnipotence. There is no place for him on the throne of authority, and he has no way to stay there for a long time. superior.

"All spirits ascend and descend on the scale of the sacred ladder. The key to omniscience is already in hand. It is not too far away to completely cut off all these shackles..."

The indescribable room returned to silence, and the girl in kimono stared quietly outside the room, her face neither sad nor happy.

Even though I kept staring into the distance, I couldn't see anything.

Even though I kept waiting for something, I couldn't see anything.

…

…

real world.

London, St George's Cathedral.

The sun was setting in the west, and the sunset was as gorgeous as if it had been burned through by fire. The majestic and solemn church was surrounded by a silent atmosphere.

Kanzaki Kaori stood on the open ground in front of the church, looking blankly at the glorious cross more than ten meters above the church, and at the "person" who was firmly nailed to it.

The power in his body that is so huge that it can shake the world is not known to be completely dissipated and shattered, or it is nailed to death by the torture tools of crosses and nails. It is impossible for even a trace to be leaked and affect the physical laws of the real world and the universe. constants, leading to the occurrence of abnormal phenomena.

"..."

The girl "Saint" pursed her lips tightly and could only lower her head.

Today was the day she was assigned to be on duty here, and it was also the first time she saw this unfamiliar guy since the holy war three days ago.

It's just that unlike the young man who used to be so high-spirited and had a hint of wantonness and even unscrupulousness in everything he did, which made people hate him so much, this man was very quiet today, quiet and lonely, which made her a little reluctant. Believe that all this is true.

The boy stretched out his hands like a bird, and was crucified on it in the crucifixion posture of the Son of God...

He lowered his head, his long hair falling like a waterfall, but he remained motionless and would never move again...

Because he had already died after being tortured on the cross. Now, many days have passed, and all the blood in his body has been completely drained...

"Kanzaki, let's go get something to eat first. You've been standing there all day."

At this time, Steele's voice came from the front. The flame magician walked out of the cathedral with a bandage on his head and one hand hanging on his neck. He looked like a wounded patient. There was also a look of bitterness and hatred on his face.

After all, he does not have the perverted physique of a "saint". As long as he is not fatally injured, he will be completely healed in a day or two, so he naturally looks extremely embarrassed and bruised all over his body.

Yes, the Holy War of the Eastern Expedition was not completely priceless. I don’t know how much the cross has accumulated over the years. The Roman Orthodox Church, the British Puritan Church, and the Russian Orthodox Church were all severely damaged. The Right Seat of God was defeated. Fire, the shadow behind the scenes that terrified members of the Roman Orthodox Church, was directly crippled.

I don’t know how many elite magicians fell completely on the battlefield and sacrificed their lives for the glory of the Lord. There is currently no way to transport their bones back home.

After all, in these three days, the whole world was in turmoil.

Putting aside the fact that Academy City was hit by a disaster, it is certainly impossible for Academy City, which is currently undergoing reconstruction work, to say that it was beaten up and still laugh and join in. In the light of friendly humanitarianism, the internationalist spirit of harmony and friendship, selfless help Crusaders solve problems.

So except for those who were able to evacuate in time, everyone else was detained. The living magicians were arrested and detained, the seriously injured ones were still lying in the hospital, and the dead ones could not be said to be transported. Back home, there was no such treatment.

Beyond this, undercurrents began to surge around the world. The previous mythical war really shocked the jaws of billions of people and gave their worldview a severe blow.

Ordinary people have healed their scars and forgotten the pain, not to mention those careerists and illegal organizations. After they reacted, they desperately tried to understand the other side of the world they didn't know, and they were also ready to take action on the other side. Get up and try to do something with this opportunity—

Even if the Christian Church wanted to make a smooth transition from this turmoil and not cause greater turmoil, with the efforts of the top bishops of the English Puritan Church, they unanimously announced that the person who had been crucified on the cross was indeed the crucifixion of the Son of God. Religious visions are manifestations of miracles.

However, there are still many crazy people who think this is their opportunity, and believe that the so-called "gods" are just powerful creatures. At present, all this is to bring them, the masters, to truly obtain extraordinary power and more advanced life forms. Chance and fate destined them to go to the extraordinary...

That's probably it. Who knows what they are thinking, but this has indeed caused quite a headache to the magic side of the Christian religion.

After all, it had been severely damaged in the first place, and all the years of accumulation had been wiped out. Then it had to face the trouble left by the damn ancient snake. It had to find ways to deal with it, and it was already seriously short of manpower. Then, those damn lunatics dared to take advantage of this moment to attack them, trying to seize extraordinary secrets and the like.

Really exhausted.

So it is the same now. The St. George's Cathedral is sealed and closed, and outsiders are prohibited from intruding. Kanzaki Kaori, the "saint" who is in relatively good condition, and his partner Steele are responsible for guarding here... After all, it is really not a problem for a while. No other suitable manpower could be found.

——Although the Crusaders won the glorious holy war, they also fell into the lowest period.

"Well, I understand..." Kanzaki Kaori replied in a daze, but still stood there motionless.

Her thoughts were confused and her mood was complicated. She felt sad and painful. The girl has always felt that she is very pious, but she has always been very confused. She has never been able to figure out a problem, as if she does not understand why a person who is not strong at all like herself is particularly favored.

Why can only some people achieve happiness?

Why do those who are not chosen have to go to hell?

If God has the power to save everyone without exception, why not make everyone equally happy and everyone smile?

Looking up at the quiet figure on the cross, the girl bit her lip tightly. She knew that her current thoughts were really rebellious, but no matter what, she could not do what other Christian believers did. Natural fanaticism without any thought of his own.

Maybe it's because he is still alive but the other person is dead.

Recalling the powerlessness he felt facing the nun at that time, Kanzaki Kaori had no doubt that neither he nor Steele had any reason to survive, but in the end they were let go lightly. The only explanation was that someone did not hurt them.

Considering the other party's bad behavior, this may not be called gentle, but Kanzaki Kaori still felt that... she had no way to connect this person with the evil and failed enemy of God described in the Bible.

Click.

Very slight footsteps came from not far away.

Her ears moved slightly, and the girl "Saint" who seemed to be in a trance looked sideways and sighed softly as if she had expected it: "You are here."

"..."

"..."

Probably understanding that he and the others had been exposed, the spiky-haired boy took a deep breath and walked out of the hiding place first, followed closely by the brown-haired girl and others.

They came to stand in front of the solemn cathedral. They looked up blankly at the cross on the church and the figure who was nailed to it. They clenched their fists tightly and bit them tightly. His lips were bitten almost to the point of bleeding.

Kanzaki Kaori didn't say anything, just waited quietly, giving them enough time, and after a while, he softly said: "To be honest, I am really surprised that you can actually come here. "

"...Somebody gave us some help."

Kamijou Touma said this in a trembling voice that was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible. His nails dug into his flesh and he was about to bleed.

"Kanzaki, are you going to become our enemy too?"

The figure who was crucified on the cross, the tragic injuries, and the mottled bloodstains were all so shocking. This made the boy with the short hair almost collapse. He struggled to hold back the emotions surging in his heart, but he was still incomparable. I hate my humbleness and powerlessness.

He is a warm-blooded man who attaches great importance to friendship. When he sees someone in trouble, he will not hesitate to sacrifice himself and refuses to leave him alone. Naturally, it is even more difficult to tolerate the death of familiar people.

Especially when you know that in this "murder", your right hand that was taken away played a decisive role. It can be said that your right hand nailed the director with one blow, allowing the unreasonable invaders to invade Academy City. After the evil victory of the Crusaders, he could not forgive himself.

At least... at least get the body back... risk everything you have!

Thinking of what the director once said to himself, he clenched his fists tightly. No matter how powerful the incoming enemy was, no matter how cruel the fate stood before him, he would definitely succeed this time!

Someone help them…

But this is the most heavily guarded St. George's Cathedral in the UK. Who has the ability to allow them to cross the defense lines of countless magicians and fanatical believers and unknowingly approach their final destination? Supreme Bishop Laura?

Kanzaki Kaori thought this silently, with a slightly strange look on her face. She remembered that today the supreme bishop used a high-sounding reason to transfer herself and Steele here, and then transferred the team that was originally guarding here. Things that are sent to other places to do tasks.

After a slight hesitation, she subconsciously made a decision that could be described as betraying her faith at this moment. Without sending a signal, she just reached out and held the handle of the knife at her waist with lowered eyes and eyebrows, without moving out of the way:

"Feel sorry."

After a brief silence, the battle was about to break out.

“Get out of my way ahhhhhhh——!!”

The hysterical pupils of the brown-haired girl reflected the power of thunder that was held in her hand, containing her strongest emotions, and struck straight ahead!

…………

rise.

rise.

Infinite ascent.

Compared with the previous fall, now it is another extreme. Xia Ran feels that his consciousness is under some endless sacred power, like a fish being lifted out of the long river of time, seeing everything, and also In infinite ascent, to reach a height above all else.

The past no longer flows, the present has completely stopped, and the future has also differentiated into various possible fates of all things flowing, and everything is visible to him.

But just suddenly, he woke up again in reality, and knew what happened in the three days since his death.

There is still a clear feeling of being nailed through his wrists, ankles and other parts, and the fatal pain that is so severe that it can penetrate the soul and flesh comes in waves... Although he has been resurrected, the judgment on Good Friday is still not over. Nailed firmly on the cross.

but--

It's just limited to this last moment.

The "man" who was firmly nailed to the cross slightly raised his lowered head. Under his messy long hair, his clear eyes clearly reflected his body flying into the air, being thrown by an unknown force. , rushing towards the spiky-headed boy who was more than ten meters above the ground.

Kamijou Touma waved his right hand fiercely, trying to smash his fist against the cross with unprecedented ferocity.

Click!

The sound of cracking sounded clearly. On the surface, it seemed to be glorious and flawless, but in fact, it was full of cracks due to the resistance of the enemy of God. The technique that had reached the end of its strength was suddenly shattered!

The dazzling light bloomed, and the night that had just followed dusk was instantly driven away. The dark sky was directly torn apart by the burst of light, just like a bright sun suddenly rising in the sky!

…………

Pure white sacred light burst out in the universe, and faintly high-pitched or ethereal voices sounded in the void. That was prayer, that was praise, that was hymn.

"We come from you and are sanctified by you. You are yesterday, today and tomorrow..."

"You are one and ten thousand, the beginning and the end. The heavens speak of your glory. Only you are the master of creation..."

"Our father in heaven, we hope that people will call you holy, and that your territory will come. We hope that your words will be put to effect on the earth, just like the sky..."

"..."

It seems that there are thousands of priests singing loudly in the timeline of the past and future, and the verses carry an unparalleled sense of sacred respect.

There seemed to be countless people shouting in unison, including the elderly, children, men, and women, speaking in various languages. The voices gathered together, vague and solemn.

Occupying the upper reaches of countless timelines, a huge ancient snake with seven heads and ten horns rises from the turbulent abyss, grasping the source of the universe. His divine radiance shines out infinitely. God is in heaven and holy in earth, infinite. Big and infinitely small, it finally broke out of the enclosed world.

But the boundless divine brilliance still does not stop, it is still spreading towards other universes and the end of all time and space, endlessly spreading in the void, shining out as much as it wants.

It is as if he is a new ascendant declaring his existence to the infinite world.

Looks came one after another, with doubts or relief, curiosity or indifference.

This is a named person, an immortal powerful being who can also have the qualifications to be named in the infinite multiverse...

His official name is - "King of Antichrist".
