Soul of Burning Steel

【Do you refuse? 】

Hearing this, the sage was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled in relief.

【ah. That's right, you are 'Miracle and Battle', but you will definitely refuse any choice of sacrifice. 】

Miracles are such things.

It's like a catastrophe in a certain place, with heavy rain from the sky, landslides and landslides, but at the end, no one is found dead-this is a miracle.

It's like when a certain country is invaded, the army and the people are desperate to fight day and night, but no one dies, and the enemy is defeated-this is a miracle.

——If the multiverse encounters an unprecedented crisis, and then countless people sacrifice for it, countless people try their best, and countless people pay the price to exchange all of their "today" for a tiny glimmer of hope in "tomorrow". That's the end of this crisis.

——Can this be called a miracle?

No! This is no miracle!

"Sage, I am stronger than you."

In the infinitely burning flames, a hand stretched out, and this huge arm pressed on the shoulder of the 'Holy Light', gently pushing the dazzling human figure away.

And one step forward, taking his place, facing the warrior who was attacked by countless mayflies, his steady voice resounded through the heavens and the world.

"I have surpassed you—so, I can make a choice."

"And I will choose, no one will be injured, no one will die, all regrets can be recovered, and there will be an 'absolute victory' in the 'future' without any haze or sadness!"

- Clear the game with one life!

——A strong enemy is defeated once!

Absolutely perfect ending! Ending chapter without regrets!

And, the best future!

He practiced extraordinary ways, beheaded endless chaos and countless evil gods, fought and burned in despair, and fought alone in the primordial fire for 120,000 years—if 'sacrifice' could 'save', 'sacrifice' would be If you can 'win', why do you need 'warrior' and 'fight'? !

He, Joshua, has fought so far, but he didn't want to 'sacrifice' what he cares about, the people he loves and everything!

And the sage who was pushed away showed a look of astonishment in an instant, not only that, the 'shadow', 'element', 'ether', even covered the initial fire, as if to completely envelop the initial fire' The future sage' also cast his eyes in shock, and countless thoughts circulated under the illumination of the initial fire.

However, there is no communication.

The conflict between the two sides does not require any communication at all, the conflict between roads and roads, the battle between right and right, this eternal "relative", even if you don't say a word, you will never die.

And at this moment, Joshua, who has replaced the sage, stuck on the initial flame that is about to envelop the entire infinity, the last gap in the 'Multiverse Mayfly Dyson Ball', stretched out his four arms that opened up the world, and stretched out this fissure.

And his will, even without words, can resound in the hearts of all the sages present, and even all the beings in the multiverse!

——Sacrifice is a shortcut! ——

Who gives up what, pays the price, and fights against what, it's like a child acting like a baby to an adult... The victory obtained through sacrifice is simply taking a shortcut and cheating!

The real victory... the real and complete victory does not require anyone to sacrifice, and no one pays the price. It is "step by step, with the help of all the predecessors to come over steadily", and then "one punch and one punch, will be strong The incomparable foe fights face to face'--that's it, through the greatest strength, the best talent, the hardest effort, and the best of luck and chance! From the absolute darkness of the abyss of heaven, strike a glorious road to the sky!

That's it, only the victory achieved in this way is the most difficult, the most painful, the most glorious, and the most praiseworthy victory!

Yes, this is very difficult, too difficult, or rather, how could someone do this? ! This is completely unreasonable and almost impossible to succeed!

However, if you don't do it because it's 'too difficult', then why fight? What are you still fighting for? What else do you need for opportunities and hard work?

Destroy the front in Zhengrui, turn the tide in extreme danger!

All people, all lives, all are warriors, all are their own heroes! All sentient beings, all worlds, are born to fight against this multiverse where everything is 'too difficult'!

"And I am the embodiment of all this!"

Joshua's will oscillated the flames, causing the sparks around the primordial fire to fluctuate—at this moment, the event light cone that 'bound' the shadow sages was shattered, and the evil that 'dragged' the elemental sages could be expelled Already, the winds of destruction that 'persecuted' the etheric sages ceased.

But now, the warrior replaced the Holy Light, blocking the direct impact of the 'future sage'!

【What you said is true, sacrifice is indeed a shortcut】

The holy light that was pushed away, experienced the sage of Joshua's power, and his body began to repair itself. He stared at the soldier's back, then smiled in relief, and asked.

[However, if you make a choice, you have to bear the possibility of failure]

【Joshua, if we are destined to fail in this challenge of a 'miracle' - in the future of the multiverse, there will no longer be any independent intelligent life, nor will there be any resistance. The multiverse exists, but there is no mind to recognize it, and no mind can understand our resistance and struggle... We are like a blurred dream, we are forgotten when we wake up, just like a book after reading Same, once closed, it will no longer be opened]

【If we exist, but it is meaningless, just like the information transmitted in endless mayflies】

he asked calmly.

[If so. Will you still persist? This meaningless struggle and fight]

"Victory and significance?"

All I got was a sneer.

"I'm just going to fight—victory, results, hope, courage—what does that matter to me? Even though it must be lost, must be forgotten, even if life is meaningless."

"At this moment, we still have to fight. Even with the future, with eternity, with everything that is 'too difficult', and even with the ending of this multiverse—"

Joshua, without hesitation, crossed the position where the sages were before. He broke through the barrier of future mayflies, and went deeper into the initial fire, and the final will came out at this time.

"also the same!"

【—You are such a fool】

Breaking free from the 'Infinite Event Light Cone', he started to set off, mocking the 'Shadow' where Joshua went.

【—Just like us】

Getting rid of the "worst possible world" and starting to set off, the "element" who went to where Joshua went laughed at himself.

【——Repeating meaningless things countless times, but expecting different results】

Break away from the 'wind of existence destruction' and start to set off, laughing heartily at the 'ether' who went to where Joshua went.

[Is this not a portrait of us? 】

【This is】

【Is this the will of miracles? 】

The sage's gentle soliloquy echoed beside the remaining flames, and he started to go to where Joshua had gone, and what he saw along the way, the light of the raging flames was even more dazzling than the initial fire.

[But if you want to win, you must sacrifice, this multiverse has always been like this, and now is no exception]

He caught up with Joshua who was advancing continuously, penetrating into the mayfly cluster and approaching the primordial fire.

[Facing the absolute advantage in the future, even if we add you, we can at most maintain a balance of power—if the evil gods from the outside world destroy the entire multiverse, then even we will definitely lose. If you want to ensure victory, you must sacrifice]

"It's always been like this, right?"

Such a stubborn response, such a firm veto, Joshua's body floated with infinite brilliance, enough to spread the power to control all possibilities and all laws, and wiped out the surrounding mayflies - but the mayflies are also endless, they Carrying the power enough to sweep the infinite world, rushing from the direction of the initial fire, trying to suppress all the sages who followed.

At this moment, the warrior felt the pressure before the Holy Light, which was the 'memory' from the infinite swarm, the 'power' from the infinite oppression, the 'information' and the 'will' from the infinite tide.

[I want to create an infinite parallel world, infinite future possibilities, and then on the infinite, and then beyond the infinite, from a corner of diversity to a bigger stage! 】

[I admit that I have the possibility of failure, but that is the price paid for the final victory, a small sacrifice]

In the area closest to the primordial fire, it is filled with the deepest and strongest will of the future sage. He is wrapping and covering the primordial fire, swallowing the source of the multiverse into his belly—and when he succeeds, he will It was the time when the 'Infinite Future Ruler' and 'Pan Multiverse Mayfly' were born!

——The cluster of infinite evil gods, and the spreading mayflies at the initial fire are actually the "future sages", two sides of one body in this multiverse.

If other sages take the time to destroy the evil gods in the multiverse, then mayflies can take this opportunity to expand their advantages, wrap more or even all the initial flames, and achieve their goals-in that case, the existence of the evil gods will also be destroyed. There is no need.

But in the same way, if the sages go to the origin of the primordial fire to confront the "future sages", they are destined to be held back by the existence of the same "infinity", and can only sit and watch the outside of the multiverse , compared to order, the evil god of chaos, who has infinite advantages, erodes the era and world of order bit by bit.

When everything in the multiverse has been eroded, the original fire is equivalent to being wrapped up by the future sage from a larger perspective-the ending is still the same.

And when the initial fire is blocked by the combined power of all sages, unable to leak out, and keeps moving away from many multi-dimensional galaxies, and no longer breeds more multi-dimensional galaxies, this means that the side of the "chaos evil god" holds the "future", And the 'order' side is destined to be destroyed by the other side in the 'end of the road'.

The "future sage" who has the two advantages of "ancient" and "future" is truly invincible from this perspective.

For this multiple-choice question, there is no option for both, A and B, you must choose one, and you can only choose one.

And no matter which one you choose, it means failure.

【Understood, you are doomed to fail】

Even if the worst future and the most terrifying attack cannot be concretized from the infinite parallel world, the will of the future sage who can only fight Joshua with his own "mayfly" seems to be mocking.

【All your efforts are meaningless】

"But that doesn't mean we have to give up."

"The meaning of my existence, the meaning of life, and even the meaning of 'future', 'you and you', is to smash all the impossible."

Joshua blasted out with a punch, which penetrated deeper into the primordial fire—if this punch was in the multi-dimensional galaxy outside, the negative entropy it carried would be enough to overflow tens of thousands of worlds, bombarding the prototype of a great vortex of creation, forming The 'infinite cycle of basics' creates a world galaxy, but here, it is nothing more than crushing some insignificant mayflies, destroying one-tenth of the infinite body of the future sage, and the number is not even as large as the opponent's new creation.

But at this moment, sages, shadows, elements, and ethers also joined them. The five sages joined forces to fight against the oppression of the "future sages", but even so, they could not achieve results.

It can be felt that the future sage at this moment is also starting to do his best. He used all the strength he had left to fight against the four sages to fight against the newly born sage Joshua.

——The battle between infinite beings is beyond time, space, matter and energy.

Their existence and will can penetrate all the worlds and even every corner of the multiverse, and they can fight and counterattack in every corner of the infinitely wide space at the same time.

As long as there is no one to stop them, they can create a time machine with multiple singularities, and move at will regardless of distance—whether it is information, logic, fate, fate, causality or even everything that exists, for him, for them In other words, they are all tools that can be manufactured, and can be manufactured infinitely.

Therefore, the war between infinity and infinity is at most a stalemate. The special feature of the future sage lies in his duality with the group of evil gods, and the purpose of the sages is not just a stalemate, but to prevent the future from completing his plan .

The plan of the future sages is only a little bit close to being completed. The gap between the two sides in this regard requires the sages to pay a far greater price than the "future" to reverse this almost complete, which is about to be completed. Certain 'established facts'.

This is also why the birth of new sages is nothing more than a stalemate with the future, leaving the multiverse and civilization of the outside world to be washed away by evil gods again and again, and the reason for the end of the era.

The stalemate of all sages is equivalent to waiting for the future to come, and for the 'future', this advantage is too powerful.

So, at this moment, how will Joshua turn around?

This is a question that all sages are thinking about.

And the answer is equally simple.

That is, of course, a miracle.

——It’s not just me alone, but a miracle bred by all existences!

"I declare!"

After penetrating into the extreme depths of the infinite swarm of mayflies wrapped in the primordial fire, Joshua finally felt the true brilliance of the primordial fire, and finally, at this moment, in the future, the sage fell into a relationship with the five sages. Fighting at the same time, at the moment when there is no extra energy to think, the warrior issued a declaration, exuding a 'change' that could distort the multiverse!

【Miracle! 】

【I, Joshua Van Radcliffe, give it to all beings in the multiverse—】

[As long as you have persistent efforts and indelible determination; as long as the road comes to an end and set foot on the highest peak; as long as this is the case, no matter who it is, whether it is a high-level intelligent life, or an ordinary jellyfish or a fish, whether it is justice The evil, the warlike, the peaceful, the animate and the inanimate, the order or the chaos, or all existence and chaos! 】

[I will grant all existences, 'miracles'! 】

This announcement that spread to the multiverse is also equivalent to giving the future sage a chance to think and realize the power released by Joshua at this time. He did not laugh at it, but replied calmly.

【Release your power now, it's too late. You can maximize your 'change' by releasing your power at this time, but again, this is just an opportunity for me to use your power to resonate the initial fire, and the faster goal achieved】

It can be seen that the progress of 'Dominating the Future', which had already reached '99.8 percent', has advanced to '99.9 percent' at this moment! Obviously there is one more sage, but the progress in the future is still increasing unstoppably!

"Yeah?"

However, Joshua laughed fearlessly: "Let's see who gave who the chance!"

"Let you see how heavy the bitter fruit of those 'possibility of victory' you sacrificed will now be brewed!"

Then, the fighters went on to proclaim!

[Let the dead be brought back to life, let the regrettable things be repeated, and let people who are absolutely impossible to touch the supernatural also be able to touch the supernatural! 】

At this moment, in the multiverse of the outside world, all the beings who are fighting against chaos, and the orderly life alliance fighting against evil gods, they are shocked to find that an extremely simple and easy-to-understand "resurrection technique" like the "repair beam of light" appeared up!

Similarly, the "Mirror of Truth", an artifact that can reset all human power and state, and exchange it with another extraordinary power, also appeared in the center of a multi-dimensional galaxy!

[Let the chaos separate light and darkness, so that the world will no longer be monotonous and ordinary—light will be born from the dark abyss, and day and night will appear! 】

Infinite power is correcting this multiverse on the basis of all predecessors and all sages!

And after that, even in the remotest corner of the multiverse, in the most silent world, in the ruins where even the great demon tide cannot penetrate, the power called "miracle" will come and revive all flames , bathed in 'supernatural' light!

And after that, even in a world that is not infiltrated by the great demon tide, the power called miracle will come, revive everything extraordinary, and bathe in the light!

even!

Even nothing exists, the void where nothing exists, has changed because of this!

On this eternal nothingness, eternal silence, and the 'ocean' that carries the heavens of all worlds, the tide begins to churn! From then on, even the void, because of the random surge of the endless space-time storm, and without the need for the initial fire, "created nothing" and gave birth to a brand new world!

That is a world that does not require the initial fire, and is completely opened up by another infinite power called 'miracle', a brand new multiverse base point!

After a long period of silence, the multiverse, which has been stagnant and no longer expanding, has finally been ignited with a 'flame' at this moment!

【Pointless! The more you declare, the more you change, the easier it is for me to resonate with the initial fire and complete my plan... Look! My plan is done and I have all the information in mind! 】

And the "Future Sage" naturally dismissed this, he didn't care about anything Joshua did, as long as he could achieve his goal, then everything in the multiverse would be under his control—— At that time, whether it was to erase Joshua's influence or absorb other sages into himself, it was all a matter of discretion.

['Dominate the future progress, 100%! ’]

It can be seen that at this moment, the future sage's domination plan has been completely successful-he has completely memorized and inscribed everything about the existing primordial fire, and is about to...sublimate?

[No...why didn't it work? !】

The inconceivable will came, and he thought in astonishment, but he couldn't get the answer. He once again concretized the progress of his plan, which was indeed '100%'!

No, it's not right, it's not just '100%'...Just now, He saw that the progress of his plan has actually become '100.000~01%'? !

But at this moment, Joshua finished his 'change' to the multiverse. He laughed loudly, the most carefree and heroic smile, blasting away all the leeway for future sages to think with his own power. !

In the multiverse, the battle of all six sages became fierce in an instant, and everyone couldn't think, and couldn't do anything other than 'fight against each other'!

However, many things are going to happen now, and even have already happened!

——Even if the initial flame is completely eclipsed, and the plan of the future sage reaches 100%, then, just after that, create a brand new 101%, 102%!

No matter how much the progress bar floats, there will always be more and longer distances to wait! Even if all the existing information and all the principles are memorized, there are still farther and more unknown things waiting to be explored!

——Even if there is no way ahead, causing all living beings to stagnate here and make no progress, then open up another road to lead the world and everything, and move forward again!

"This multiverse is not your self-proclaimed 'future', which can be described with a mere '100%'!"

"Today is stronger than yesterday, tomorrow is farther than today, every time is more mature than the last time, every moment is more perfect than the last moment!"

"How can the future of the multiverse, the possibility of all living beings, be described with such an arrogant '100%'!"

Beyond 100%, beyond the impossible! Beyond all stubbornness, all disbelief, all that is impossible!

——And this is a miracle!

[Today, I will perform a miracle to make this ring of darkness covering the multiverse, this sad cycle of reincarnation, turn into a bright day and a hopeful tomorrow! 】

[I am the representative of all things fighting for the future, the king of miracles, the lord of all armies, the 'ruler of the air'! I don't need to choose A, or choose B, I don't need to choose both, because I will create C, create D, create Alpha and Omega, and create infinite miracles! 】

Facing the fearful, retreating future sage who didn't know where his progress would go, the warrior's will seemed to burn himself out, and shouted: "This is the battle between man and fate, this is the battle between man and the future." Fight, the light released by the burning heart is my soul!"

—— Burn the world with the fire in your heart! Announcing the multiverse!

[Not necessarily! There is no eternity! There is no limit! I deny the absolute in the name of the absolute! I will give all things the possibility to reverse all things! 】

[In this multiverse, from now on, there is nothing that cannot be done, everything has a chance, even if it is evil, it is chaos, you are the "future sage", and you have the chance to reverse everything! 】

All sentient beings, mortals who are fighting against the evil gods, the strong, the gods, everything can feel it. It is a feeling of breaking the shackles, a feeling of being liberated from some kind of bondage... It's just like , there is something 'absolutely impossible', suddenly there is a 'trivial turning point'!

Of course, the possibility that this turning point needs to be grasped is close to 'impossible'.

However, the most important gap between the impossible and the possible has been opened by someone!

[This is the worst and most disordered world, everything will be forgotten, and nothing can be remembered——]

The future sage is still roaring, and his power at this time is still enough to suppress the sages, and he can stand in a stalemate with the five sages of Joshua, sage, shadow, ether and element.

【What you, who are known as 'Order', want is a 'future' that is even more 'chaotic' than 'Chaos'? ! 】

"That's just your order, your chaos!"

And the warrior who was also roaring, put his strength forward without hesitation: "I just let everyone become the protagonist of everyone - as long as they can remember everything about themselves and open up their own future, then Will suffice!"

"There is no more fate to be dominated, no plot destined to happen, a book that will be forgotten after it is not opened; a book that will be closed after it is recorded!"

[This infinite persistence, how can you reverse it! 】

Shouting so furiously, the future will no longer speak now, He is silent, and then with all his strength, let himself go beyond the realm of '100%' as much as possible! He is the original sage, the strongest sage, and even now, he has a powerful existence with an 'absolute advantage'! It's just beyond 100%, He can do it!

"Of course! Because it's not just us—there's more, the 'us' of the 'future'!"

But Joshua didn't care about this, and continued to fight against the future sages together with the sages.

——Don’t you understand? Life does not require you to go over and over again to remember. We thank you for never forgetting, but this does not mean that we cannot choose to die quietly, choose to be forgotten by everyone, and choose the right to belong to ourselves and eternal freedom.

- Don't you understand? The rapid and short fluctuations of my life, the flames that have been burning wantonly for decades, even if it spans a scale of 120,000 years, are so small and humble to the entire multiverse—no matter any life, any civilization , This is true for the entire multiverse, whether it is tens of thousands of years, or longer-term civilizations and individuals, how short and insignificant are they for the unforgettable eternal void.

Compared to the infinity called 'Future', all of this is like a flash of brilliant fireworks, like sparks floating in the sky.

But even so.

The fleeting flame can also illuminate everything in an instant, illuminating this dark multiverse!

——The spiritual sage blocked the possibility of the "future" continuing to rely on the destruction of civilization to create evil gods on a large scale and break the balance of the remaining order. This is the original light!

——The sage of the devil, endowed the foundation of "everything has extraordinary possibility" and "infinite tide of magic". This is the daylight that descends on the multiverse!

——The sage of life has placed the foundation of the "eternal cycle of the world" and "creation of nothing" at the origin. This is the endless world born from the void!

The three sages who admitted their failure are the breeders of today's 'reversal'! Mother of all success! Their passing away is for the better victory of the latecomers!

And the others, my sages.

——The shadow sage brought all the elements of victory, which can be quickly gathered together in a short period of time, so as not to be dragged down by the enemy of 'time'! He is the way of victory!

——Elemental sages, who make all living beings prosper, are the foundation for the birth of all living beings in the multiverse today! He divides all things, marks the order brought by the classification, and allows the thinking logic of order to penetrate into all things and sentient beings! He is the outline of success!

——Ether Sage, gently support everything, use the possible foundations of all these "life" to "magnify" and spread all the insignificant and insignificant light without limit! He is the foundation of success!

"Finally, the holy light, the sage, the person I've been chasing all the way - the flag and beacon he raised guides my arrival! He is the leader of the reversal!"

"And I will bring, restore all sacrifices, all regrets, a complete, real victory!"

"I don't want eternity, I don't want to be remembered, what I want is the 'miracle' that all beings can achieve themselves, and everything is possible in the 'now'!"

"This is my path, my demand, and I will order this multiverse - reverse, begin!"

With the announcement of the warriors, at the far end of the eternal and endless multiverse, where all the multi-dimensional galaxies of order are located, the final battle of Armageddon has begun, and the horn of the holy war in heaven is sounded, and the fire that exudes flame and Light can be revived, can be strengthened through battles, and can be eradicated by chaos. The "army of order" that increases its own possibilities begins to march towards the infinite darkness!

The endless swarms of evil gods began to retreat little by little in front of this small army that could 'infinitely become stronger', and then they collapsed and were defeated! And if the evil god is wiped out, if there are other sages interfering with the future sages, it means that the future sages themselves will be weakened!

Even if it is an era of heavenly jihad, that almost eternal war, it may only take back one percent, or even less than one percent of the future—but since there is one percent, it means that there are still one hundred percent in the future. Two-thirds, three percent! And the endless ones that follow!

Under the circumstances that the evil god was suppressed by the psionic sage to be born! In the situation where the life sage and Joshua are spawning endlessly in the world! In the case of extraordinary power, except for the future, all sages work together to continue to spread and popularize! The dawn of victory has arrived!

Just like the future sage, a progress bar representing "hope" began to appear. In front of it, the power that hazy enveloped all living beings, the chaos that brought despair was shattered, replaced by , is real, the real 'hope and future'!

——If the future is dragged down by infinite memories, it will stagnate in place.

—and infinity is nothing more than a symbol if it just stays where it is.

"Destroy the front when it is sharp, and turn the tide when it is extremely dangerous."

The voice of Joshua Van Radcliffe resounded through the multiverse, his will, his beliefs, and even his soul began to burn!

—All things are never destined to be remembered again.

——Everything will finally take back the right to develop the 'future' and 'memory' from the hands of the 'future'.

——Ah, this multiverse of continuous loss and forgetting, sorrow and hope!

——Finally, you can move forward again!

"With the fire in my heart, burn all over the world—"

Confronted with the ever-expanding and expanding initial fire, compared to the ever-shrinking and shrinking future sages—and the ever-extending, ever-brightening true future, the warrior moves forward, Laughing at the endless mayflies in the darkness, he swung his last punch!

"This is the Soul of Burning Steel!"

——Volume 20 Soul of Burning Steel The end!

——The third part, Soul of Burning Steel Knot!

——The complete book of "Soul of Burning Steel" is over!

Soul of Burning Steel, finished. Three years of persistence ended here. It may be a bit unfinished, but there is no doubt that "Soul of Burning Steel" is over. The postscript, extra episodes, and ex chapters are not "Soul of Burning Steel", but the derivative of the future hope brought by Joshua. That is A gentler, more tenderly burning multiverse.

The ending of this book was written three years ago, so it contains some game elements, but this is a book in the game area, isn't it? I also have such a heart, so I wrote such a book.

So, for the last time, ask for a monthly pass that is 'no point' but 'still going to do it'.

Later, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, I will update the 'EX chapter', 'postscript', 'testimonial at the end of this book' and the last mysterious chapter and side story, so I don't need to leave now, I still have something to write.
