My players are so fierce

Chapter 1151 114 World Blueprint·Shadow of the Real World

According to the ancient legend of the Songhai people, when the world was first born, the Creator discovered the existence of Hades while roaming the sea of ​​stars.

He felt the desire of Hades and accepted the other party's prayer. He used endless power to connect Hades with the mortal world, making it the basis of a cycle of life and death. This legend is the theoretical basis for the Songhai people's respect for death, and the story it describes is generally true.

The connection between the plane of Hades and the physical world is established by the hand of the Creator.

According to the private description of Tris, who escorted the Pharaoh's coffin to the Holy City of the Moon, when she handed Murphy's artificial godhead to the will of Hades, the latter was still talking about a certain "agreement" between it and the Creator.

After hearing Tris' retelling, Murphy knew that the Creator had left him another problem that needed to be solved.

But the good news is that compared to the other problems left by that guy, this Hades Agreement seems to be much easier to solve. They have already prepared everything, and they only need to stamp and sign it.

"Your Majesty, are you still used to living in Hades?"

Murphy walked up the stairs and asked Thutmnes II, who was wearing a golden lion mask:

"Are your colleagues friendly? Is the working environment safe? Have you ever been bullied by a bad senior in the workplace?"

"Well, Your Excellency God's Chosen One, the tone of your question is like an elder's advice to a child who goes out. I know you are joking, but to be honest, it's okay."

Thutmnes II, who had been promoted from pharaoh to ancient king, laughed and said:

"I feel free!

That is a higher and greater freedom than the freedom that the living talk about, based on the free will given by death, which is the ultimate gift that death bestows on all souls.

I can see with my own eyes that my children have grown up so well, and I have no regrets about my lost life. I know that under your care, the Songhai Empire will truly take off, and my achievements as a pharaoh will be told in history.

However, I no longer care about the evaluation of future generations.

All because my greatest career will truly begin after I die. "

"Huh?"

Murphy looked curiously at Priest Bayek next to him.

This guy still maintains the mysterious mummy posture with his whole body covered in bandages and wearing a crow skull mask in the underworld. Faced with Murphy's questioning eyes, he responded consciously while holding the Death Moon Sacred Staff:

"The truth will be revealed ahead, and it is not the etiquette of the dead to let distinguished guests talk outside the gate. Please come with us, noble Lord Murphy, the ancient king and the will of Hades are already waiting for your arrival.

They have been waiting for this for thousands of years. "

"I am your tour guide on this trip, the Chosen Lord of Creation."

Nefertari’s grandmother introduced herself generously:

"You can call me 'Pom'."

"Okay, Mrs. Pom, your granddaughter and I are good friends, and you can be considered my elder."

Murphy nodded, pulled some strings to make Mrs. Bohm laugh, and then took out a dog whistle and blew it hard.

A few seconds later, a black chariot pulled by six armored three-headed dogs of Hades appeared on the Road of the Dead. This luxurious chariot looked like the special vehicle of the ancient king. According to Nefertari's previous revelations, it is said that the Pharaohs of Hades occasionally get interested and will indeed hold drag racing competitions on the Road of the Dead. In short, the living conditions of these dead people are much more vivid than Murphy imagined.

Of course, this was the good old days before the mutiny.

Thutmnes II boarded the chariot and personally served as the driver for Murphy. Mrs. Bohm acted as a maid to prepare the chariot's cushions for him, and Priest Bayek served as the escort.

As the four men boarded the chariot, the ancient king raised his whip, and the fierce three-headed dogs galloped along the Road of the Dead toward Hades.

"Hades is a special plane that contains the concept of death and a series of powers that extend from it."

In that comfortable and majestic car, Priest Bayek introduced Murphy to Murphy:

"It is said that the plane of Hades was not discovered by the Creator in the sea of ​​​​stars as in the legend, but that He obtained it from outside the realm with the help of supreme power. It is a 'gift' specially prepared for this world. Then I will test you. Yes, Mr. Murphy.

Why do you think the Creator connected a plane filled with the power of death to the edge of the material world and called it a 'gift'? "

"Because for an individual, death is a tragedy, but for a species, death is a blessing."

Murphy was sitting like a boss, leaning on the fast three-headed dog chariot. He looked at the scenery on both sides of the Road of the Dead. In front of the getting closer and closer to the gate of Hades, he took the book of Hades from Mrs. Pom. special drink says:

"You cannot understand life without accepting death. It is precisely because life is limited that every minute of every day is important. It can promote individuals to devote effective time to more efficient creation and learning. Therefore, wisdom appears again and again. Iterations are closer to the truth.

The inheritance of this symbol of the cycle of life and death from generation to generation is the foundation for a civilization and a population to become stronger.

I am a theoretically immortal vampire, Your Excellency, so my understanding of this issue is different from ordinary people.

Immortality is a curse!

When the perception of time becomes dull, there is no difference between a day and a year for an individual. Those things that were once cherished will fade, and those that were once pursued will lose their meaning. The simple accumulation of emotions and time cannot bring about the truth. and wisdom will only make the burden on the soul heavier and heavier.

When there is no difference between sleeping for one day and sleeping for a hundred years, how the world should change loses its meaning to you.

Isolated because of boredom, resistant because of isolation, disgusted because of resistance, and finally ushered in the general outbreak of nihilism between doubting myself and hating the world.

Until the end, either turn into stone and live to survive.

Or fall into the shadows and verify your existence again and again with behavior that breaks through the bottom line.

Through blood contracts, we can easily create descendants and expand our tribe. Theoretically, as long as vampires are willing, one thousand years is enough time to turn the entire world into a kingdom of vampires. However, we failed to do so, and instead became more vulnerable. Humans are at the forefront of the competition among species.

Are we unwilling?

Of course not.

Death has not blessed us!

A vampire cannot leave anything of value to his descendants after eternal rest, and the entire tribe is like this, thus creating a stagnant pool of water.

What is the difference between vampires today and vampires a thousand years ago?

The answer is, there is no difference.

From this point of view, our race is hopeless. It may not die, but it will only remain in this state of stagnant water until night falls at the end of the world. In contrast, Songhai empire. "

When the chariot passed the gate of Hades and showed the scenery of this unique plane in front of Murphy's eyes, the vampire lord sitting on the chariot took a sip of the special drink of Hades. In the feeling that was so cool that it penetrated into the bottom of his heart, he said:

"The will of Hades looks after the Songhai Empire, and thousands of years of reincarnation and reproduction have made your country prosperous.

The Songhai people can live for 200 years and have already entered the category of long-lived species, but your population is increasing faster than short-lived humans. I think this is not just because the Songhai people are happy to reproduce in a stable environment.

The cycle of life and death governed by Hades also plays a huge role in this.

If the soul is also a 'resource', then while other races and civilizations wasted this resource, the Songhai people made good use of it through the underworld, which caused the Songhai Empire's population to continue to increase.

By the way, there shouldn’t be a god like the ‘Sending Son Guanyin’ here, right? "

"No, but every tide of the Underworld will indeed put the washed spiritual matter back into the origin of the material world."

Mrs. Bohm whispered:

"These pure spiritual qualities will not directly bring life, but they can make the flow of life force in the material world more stable and more frequent, forming the tide of the birth of life. Therefore, after each tide of the underworld, the empire will usher in a new wave of life. Baby boom wave.

This is also an important reason why the Songhai ancestors, who only had a few thousand people a thousand years ago, were able to multiply enough to support the imperial system in a few hundred years.

As far as I know, it’s the same in the ancient country of Callum.

However, the territories of the Hades of the two sides are not common, so we are not clear about the structure and system of the Eastern Hades. However, what is certain is that the development and growth of the empire of the Eastern Dragonborn is indeed due to the Hades. "

“That’s a big part of why we invite you here.”

Thutmnes II, who was the driver, said solemnly:

"The will of Hades has proven the great significance of its existence to the material world. The Creator's request has been completed. It is eager to fulfill a more important mission and cover every corner of the world with the blessing of death.

It aspires to become the true 'shadow of the world', to become the laws and existence covering the concept of the material world, to become a complete country opposite to it and to be forever intertwined with the material world. At this point, the original blueprint of the Creator can be Complete, and you can also get the reward that is rightfully yours."

"I guessed it."

Murphy nodded and said:

"But I still have to reconcile the specific details with the will of Hades face to face. You three don't have to worry. I have no resistance to fulfilling this promise."

As soon as he said this, the three envoys sent to greet him breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Boehm was also able to use a more relaxed attitude to introduce Murphy to the scenery that kept flashing under the carriage running in the sky of Hades. In the eyes of other living people, Hades was only pitch black, but Murphy was always privileged as a wall hanging, so he You can clearly see the scenery of the Hades plane.

Just like a reflection of the world.

In a truly literal sense, for example, Murphy is riding a gorgeous chariot across the "Great Pyramid of Issus" in the Hades plane.

These undead are so uncreative and so idle

They actually recreated an identical Ptolemaic city in Hades, and the city was indeed as prosperous as in the material world, or even more prosperous.

However, the thousands of miles of yellow sand in the real world are replaced by endless green fields in Hades, with countless trees growing on them, and birds and animals wandering lazily among them.

It seems that even the native Songhai people don't really like the desert that much.

To be honest, who would want to spend the night in the desert when they can live in an oasis.

Isn’t that an environment suitable for life to live in? This has nothing to do with simple love and hate.

"I think you should probably be a little more artistic."

Murphy complained softly:

"Create some buildings in your imagination in the world after death, instead of lazily moving the scenery from your life. Anyway, being able to enter Hades means eternal life after death."

"That's not true. Not all souls will be allowed to exist permanently in the underworld. They will have to re-enter reincarnation when the time limit is up."

Priest Bayek shook his head and said:

"The living have their own troubles, and the dead also have their own troubles. The plane of Hades will not keep expanding, and the balance of life and death is the basic rule. A general balance must be maintained at both ends of the scale. As the Songhai people say, death It is the next stage of life, and life is another starting point of death.

The ancient king's council chamber is right in front!

We're almost there. "

Under Bayek's guidance, Murphy withdrew his gaze from the scenery below and looked up. There stood a black pyramid on the top of the mountain in the distance. On the highest peak of the Hades plane, like a black pyramid Eyes high in the air.

The Mercedes-Benz car quickly stopped in front of the pyramid. When Murphy got out of the car, he saw that the other eleven ancient kings were waiting at the door to greet him. Unlike Tutmons II, these guys all had quite a lot of... Death concept.

Perhaps it was caused by serving the will of Hades for a long time.

They are endowed with a strong symbolism of death and are the foundation of existence in the Hades plane.

There was no luxurious welcome ceremony, and there was not even anyone else serving here. Under the silent gaze of twelve ancient kings wearing various masks, Murphy walked alone through the dark corridor and finally arrived at a ring inside the pyramid. Altar.

The purest ebony stone was shaped into a black broken blade to form a unique statue, symbolizing the existence of the will of Hades.

Murphy felt that this thing might also have something to do with the Creator.

He took a deep breath and stepped forward to touch the ebony stone statue. His hands were as cold as freezing his soul, but soon an indescribable existence "touched" his consciousness.

It's asking:

"Successor of the Creator, are you willing to fulfill the agreement of the world blueprint and expand the scope of Hades to every part of the entire material world?"

"If you can take care of the dead of other races and shape their own cycles of life and death just as you take care of the Songhai people so that their populations can thrive, then I will."

Murphy gave his own answer.

"Buzz"

In the soft sound, a black mark appeared on his left hand, like a positive response from the other party.

"Successor of the Creator, are you willing to accept the power characteristics of Hades as a part of the available power under your command, and welcome the dead with a fair attitude to join the endless war against Chaos?"

"If your dead could be as determined and brave as your living, then I would!"

Murphy answered again.

A second black mark appeared on his left hand, and at the same time, a prompt popped up on the interface in front of Murphy:

"Special Player Template·Undead in Hades" has been included.

"Successor of the Creator, are you willing to take over my burden, engrave the dogma of the cycle of life and death into the rules of the world, and regard the prosperity of world civilization as the goal you pursue in this life?"

The Will of Hades asked the third question without giving Murphy time to react, but this time Murphy sensed something was wrong.

He asked suspiciously:

"What does this mean? What does 'taking over your burden' mean? Do you mean that after I agree, you will perish?"

"I mean, after you agree, I can get off work! Idiot!"

The next moment, a hoarse and cold voice turned into a heavy punch and hit Murphy's heart, making him see a dark figure wearing heavy armor and holding a war sickle in a trance. Behind the latter was a world of alternating death and rebirth. Spectacular sea of ​​stars.

Of course, it was only for a moment, and it was hard to tell whether Murphy was hallucinating or not.

But this voice is real. The other party complained in a gnashing voice:

"It was originally said that before the cycle of life and death in this world was established, I just came here to do the testing and duty, but the unreliable guy messed up and ran away, leaving this projection of my consciousness trapped here for more than a thousand years. .

asshole! Don't I have anything else to do?

you!

alpha!

Take this burden immediately, I command you! "

"ah?"

Murphy was really confused now.

But he responded quickly and immediately asked:

"Aren't you? Are you the same as the gentleman who chatted with me in the Creation Engine? Are you a big shot brought over by the Creator to take over?"

"You look pretty stupid, Murphy."

The voice said:

"Who told you that there is only one 'Creator'? Although that guy is mainly responsible, we will occasionally provide assistance. Okay, hurry up and complete the transfer of authority. I still have my own things to be busy with. You guy looks like You look so good, I won’t let you do it in vain.”

"Then, I do."

Murphy's heart suddenly moved when he heard "benefits" and he responded seriously. When the three black seals on his hand gathered into a strange nested circle, a large number of prompts immediately popped up in the administrator system in front of him.

But one of them made Murphy's eyes widen instantly:

[The new administrator system function "Laws of Hades" has been unlocked.

The new camp, ‘Hades’, has been included as an affiliated force of the administrator. Its manpower feedback rules are: wherever the shadow of Hades reaches, 1 manpower will be fed back for every 100 cycles of life and death that occur.

Tip!

A complete cycle of life and death refers to one death and one rebirth in the same area. Individual deaths and rebirths are not counted.

Tip!

This feedback is settled every 24 hours. 】

After seeing this, Murphy had only one thought in his mind:

"Come on, you bastard, let's fight! Murphy, I'm already invincible!!!"
