My doppelganger drama

"You want to know why I made you a hunter?"

"Why?" Luo Xi put aside his messy thoughts and focused on the old man.

"Use, this is indeed an use." Mahad said frankly, "Roxi, it seems that I have never told you a legend in this world."

Luo Xi looked at Mahad in confusion, wondering why the topic suddenly turned here.

"A long time ago, it was like the beginning of all stories, a vague origin. In the chaos, this world gave birth to two great gods. One god is the god of the ocean. He is vast and infinite, and is the god of all living things. The original hotbed. And the other god is the god of fire. Like the blazing sun in the sky, he nourishes the earth, allows living things to get scattered fire, and guides the life on land. He is the bridge for their progress and the origin of civilization."

Luo Xi listened quietly.

He was literally hearing the story for the first time.

The God of the Ocean may have expected it, so he was not too surprised.

What surprised him was that in this world where the smell of the sea almost permeated everything, there was actually a god - the god of fire.

"They initially maintained a peaceful balance, the ocean remained mysterious, and the fire gave people reason. However, this was just a temporary calm, an illusion. The ocean was primitive and savage, and as its god, he followed this instinct , one day toward the land, and the god of fire provoked a fight."

At this point, Mahad paused for a moment: "The civilization at that time was too immature and had no strong resistance to the rampant barbarism. The god of fire was no match for the god of the ocean, and a large amount of land sank and became part of the ocean. The sunlight is getting weaker and weaker, and the interaction between gods and humans is getting weaker and weaker."

"In the end, the god of fire made a desperate move and fought an earth-shattering battle with the god of the sea, which ended with the death of both gods."

Mahad looked at Red: "The god of the ocean is the symbol promoted by the sea. Without the god, the sea will not change its originality and mystery, and the land that has been occupied will not come back. Even because of the loss of the ocean, God, the primitive creatures of the sea have lost their normal evolutionary rules, and their evolutionary routes have changed. This is the birth of sea monsters."

"The God of Fire, did he leave anything behind?" Luo Xi realized that this might be the key to Mahad's search for him.

"He left a firewood." Mahad smiled.

"He turned his last body into an unquenchable firewood and gave life on land the last blessing. Human civilization embraced this firewood in times of crisis and regarded it as a life-saving straw."

Mahad looked at Luo Xi: "But mortals can't bear the fire left by God. They don't know how to use this power. So, they choose to arm themselves first and make themselves stronger, and then ask for the fire. force."

"Hunter..." Luo Xi realized something.

"Yes, drawing blood from the ocean and injecting it into the body can make people stronger in a short period of time. This will allow the original and chaotic voice to be introduced into people's minds. If they cannot persist, they will alienate and step into the sea. , join the disorderly path of growth and evolution.”

Mahad lowered his head and looked at the musket in his hand: "And powerful hunters are also qualified to receive fire."

"The flame makes people rational, the searing heat makes people forget the coldness of the sea, and the power of reason dispels the barbarism of chaos and brings the power of civilization."

hiss--

Bright sparks began to scatter from Mahad's hands, and burning lines gradually appeared on his arms until they spread all over his body.

"Firefire Hunters, this group of people are called so. They fight against disorder, stick to the frontier of the Sunless Sea, illuminate the progress of civilization, and cannot fall until they die. They are like a beacon, passing the flame to one generation after another. .”

Mahad handed the musket to Luo Xi.

Luo Xi took it and immediately felt a hot temperature coming from the palm of his hand.

"I am a frustrated defector. I thought I could no longer complete this mission. Looking at my body getting older, the flame will stay on this secluded island with the fire of my life. What a pity."

"Shanta..." Luo Xi couldn't help but said.

"Shan is the hunter of this village." Mahad said, "If you live, you will not leave this island or go to the outside world. But you can, my child, you are the most talented hunter I have ever seen. .”

A trace of fire ignited on his fingertips: "Fire can bring us strength. To this day, I will not ask you for anything. You have done enough, far better than what I can do for this island and this village." It’s better. The agreed time should be brought forward.”

The fingertips pointed at Luo Xi's eyebrows.

Just like every time before when Luo Xi came back from the sea, he did a routine check on Luo Xi.

"This is the last strength, the last help, and the last teaching I give you..."

The heat spread to Luo Xi's whole body through the center of his eyebrows. The noisy calls about the ocean in Luo Xi's ears gradually faded away in the warmth, and traces of burning appeared on his body. The sparks on the old man's body dispersed, and instead, Luo Xi's whole body burned. got up.

Like a carefully placed dry firewood, it was finally ignited and gave off its due brilliance.

"As rational as fire, as free as the sea, this is your destination."

After saying that, the old man's body exploded.

The burned old body turned into charcoal that gradually lost its temperature and was scattered on the ground.

But Luo Xi stayed in place.

The fire infiltrated his spirit and sorted out all the chaos and disorder.

Cities, vehicles, high-rise buildings, sky islands, theaters, everything...

Looking back at dusk, Luo Xi found that he was already in the theater.

There was a man in white sitting in the audience, looking at him with a smile.

Looking around, he saw Wan Yi standing in front of the desk, holding a quill and sweating profusely.

The moment Luo Xi appeared, Wan Yi's hand holding the pen suddenly loosened, and he almost lost his balance and fell on the desk.

"After awakening, will the previous content be a done deal?" Wan Yi said, rubbing his head and standing up.

Luo Xi quickly clarified the situation.

Wan Yi turned his head and looked into those beautiful eyes of different colors and said: "Welcome, let's start by getting dressed."

Luo Xi looked at himself after hearing this and found that he was really naked.

All the hunter equipment was gone.

Afterwards, Wan Yi and Liang Rendao taught him how to manifest objects in the theater, and then explained some things to him.

Luo Xi didn't say anything after hearing this, and looked at Wan Yi and said, "What were you doing just now?"

"Try to rewrite your script." Wan Yi looked towards the empty stage, "But it's not that easy. Some things are the result of the script being prepared for a long time and cannot be solved by changing a few words."

Shan's alienation and death in battle, Mahad's oil lamp passed on to the fire after it dried up.

Nothing can be changed.

He could only let Mahad hold on for a little longer, letting Mahad persist until Luo Xi came back and told Luo Xi everything.

This is also because the flame does have this power, and Wan Yi just combined Mahad's dying will with the flame, causing him to be hung up by the flame before his death.

Let’s not let Luo Xi send Mahad away without knowing anything.

However, these are not discussed in detail.

Luo Xi just understands.

"Director of the theater, on that ship before, were the people on it..." Luo Xi asked.

"it's me."

Wan Yi admitted.

Luo Xi nodded: "Thank you."

"No need." Wan Yi shook his head.

Luo Xi stood up and asked, "troupe leader, can your boat take me for a ride?"

"Yes, the ship can be sent directly to you. My clone can also be a sailor for you." Wan Yi readily agreed, "Are you leaving?"

Luo Xi nodded: "It's time to set sail."

"Then you still need to resolve the external matters. Otherwise, if you only rely on those clones, the ship may be dismantled if you arrive late." Wan Yi reminded.

"Well, that's inevitable."

Luo Xi smiled, stood up from his seat, and left the theater.

Seeing this, Wan Yi also stood up.

"It's time for the curtain call," he said.
