Soul of Burning Steel

No. 3 said blankly, "Run?"

What are you running? Racing?

"Of course it's not a race. What I mean is that the strength of the black mist mother body has made most people recognize the fighting power between the evil god and the legend. For the first time, they really understand the difference between the 'god' and the 'evil god' in their mouths. The gap, it's not an 'evil' position at all."

When Joshua said this, he was already very calm. He said lightly: "They themselves are legends. In their eyes, God is naturally not a great, unique and unshakable existence, and evil gods and sages are naturally just stronger. It’s nothing more than a god, this is what most of the Mycroft legends once thought. But when they faced the black mist matrix, they discovered that the power possessed by the real ancient evil cannot be countered by decades of hard work.

"In other words, the fact that the evil gods will invade in the future makes them feel fear—probably not fear, but just making what they think is the right choice."

"That's running."

No. 3 listened to Joshua's narration in silence, but for some reason, she didn't have any thoughts of contempt, but a deep sense of helplessness.

Yes, everyone will feel fear... Even if they are not afraid, no one will want to fight hard, right?

The evil gods are natural disasters of the multiverse, similar to volcanic eruptions, typhoons, and earthquakes in the earth's crust. Faced with these natural disasters, the best choice for a civilization is to run away—no matter how powerful it is, no one will think What's the point of swinging a knife against a volcano and charging against a typhoon?

Even if the natural disaster is defeated, what's the point? The whole body is covered with bruises, countless lives are lost, and the world that was finally repaired will also be destroyed. Is this really worth it?

At this time, Joshua was still calmly talking to himself: "I know what they are thinking... Of course they are not afraid, they are not even afraid of death, so how could they be afraid of evil gods? What's more, everyone is legendary powerhouse, even if If you really can't fight, if you want to retreat, you can definitely retreat."

"It is their responsibility as human beings and the glory of being strong that allow them to stand here and share life and death with the Mycroft civilization."

Having said that, Joshua sighed heavily again.

Although he has not known each other for a long time, he can say without hesitation that all the legendary powerhouses in the world of Mycroft are people who have escaped the vulgar interests.

They may have bad deeds or bad habits, such as smoking, pretending to be ordinary adventurers, pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, for example, having a lot of illegitimate children, buying houses everywhere but not living in any of them... But this is just theirs. Way of life, when it is necessary, they are willing to give their lives to protect their beloved world and civilization.

But it's not necessary yet, is it?

The evil gods will not come in a few decades—thirty years earlier, forty or fifty years later, or even seventy or eighty years later.

Such a long time is enough for the Mycroft civilization to take countermeasures without hastily fighting the evil gods. It is like detecting the time of a volcanic eruption, knowing where the typhoon landed, and when the earthquake was detected. If the residents can migrate as soon as possible, the Mycroft civilization can completely avoid its edge and hide far away, and then fight back after the development is complete.

Is this thinking wrong? Of course you are! What the Starfall Era lacks is time. Give them a few more hundred years, and they, who have all the materials inherited from the Glory Era, will eventually become stronger than the Glory Era through the struggle of generations.

but……

Joshua clenched his fists.

But can it really run away? Will there really be time for development?

If the black hand he guessed existed, no matter how the Mycroft civilization ran, it would be meaningless.

But in the final analysis, this is still guesswork. Even Joshua himself doubts it. If he said it, others would not believe it.

"They have a lot of ideas, each of which is perfect, and it can be seen that they have really thought seriously about the future of our world during this time."

Joshua raised his head, he stared at the black dome of the information hall, and said calmly: "For example, the natural teacher."

"Galan Nord came up with such an idea - she intends to use her own body as a carrier to create an unprecedented 'hibernation chamber' as large as several mountains, just like the father of nature back then, she intends to Keep the bodies of all civilized individuals in your own body to hibernate, and then enter the void by yourself, looking for another world suitable for our survival."

"It's a crazy idea, but the feasibility is very high, because she is a natural teacher, she is a complete ecological circle, as long as it lands in a suitable living world, then the entire Mycroft civilization can be rebuilt within a few decades. Reproduce and prosper, and reproduce today's glory."

"For another example, William and Stanley. These two great spiritual scholars are even better than Gallan Nord when it comes to madness. They intend to create a huge world circle that will absorb all life in the entire Mycroft world. The souls are all uploaded to the magic net server, and the reality is only a carrier, which is the spiritual terminal. They think that the puppets can do things that the body can do. We only need to control the puppets to enter the world through soul projection, whether it is safe or not. It's still consumption, I don't know how many times it is better than now."

"Is it familiar? That's right, what they are talking about is the prototype of the evil god of natural disasters, the world coordination circle. Although these guys don't know the existence of the world coordination circle, they have proposed similar or even the same concept. See you alike."

"Even Nostradamus thought it was a good idea. He even thought that the Soul Ball and Restoration Light Pillar I made perfectly fit the plan of the nature teacher and William and the others—a carrier that could completely store the soul, and also With an automatic machine that can perfectly reproduce the body, we can stuff the soul of the entire civilization into a server the size of a mountain, and then release it in the target world to reproduce the Mycroft civilization."

"It's perfect. None of us need to give up. We can take everyone with us. Even people in their eighties will have a new life."

Speaking of this, Joshua closed his eyes, and he sighed deeply: "There are so many of us, and we have thought of so many ways, but I am the only one who thinks about how to become stronger and fight against evil gods. But everyone wants to leave, how to avoid it... This feeling is really bad."

No. 3 was no longer sitting on the chair, she was floating in the air, and she didn't know what to say, so she could only hug the soldier's hand gently.

"You know them, and they know you too... There's no need to be angry about this kind of thing." The artificial intelligence girl whispered in the soldier's ear: "It's still a long time, we have plenty of time to think, don't we?"

"I know……"

Joshua clenched his fists again, but he released them immediately, and said flatly, "I still remember what Nostradamus said to me just now."

As he spoke, he fell into memories not long ago.

In the deepest laboratory of the Academy of Wintercastle, the old mage and several other legends sat on chairs, and everyone gathered around a round table, while Nostradamus was watching the warrior with piercing eyes across the table. He opened his mouth and said in the most solemn tone: "Joshua—"

"If you, or one of us becomes a sage-level existence, then we may still fight to the death for glory, just like the glorious civilization back then."

"But we are the helm of civilization, we are the highest level of civilization, we can decide whether the future of all life on Mycroft will hibernate in Galan Nord, or upload them all to the server and become a pure soul body. "

On both sides of the round table, the legends whose names were mentioned showed their faces. They looked at Joshua with the same serious expression. The natural teacher took Nostradamus's words, and she said softly: "We are willing, and we can work together to completely complete the situation in one day. Destroy the Mycroft civilization - in the same way, we can save it. This great right will make some people fall into tyrants and dictators, but we will not. This right will only make us firm in our determination .”

"Joshua, we are extraordinary powers. A few of us chatting here can determine the direction of a great civilization—that's why we need to be cautious, reverent, careful and careful, and never allow a single mistake—this is a great right , is our greatest honor and also our greatest responsibility, we cannot decide the future of everyone in the world according to our personal preference."

"yes."

On the side, the avatar of Israel sighed, and the Emperor of the Empire whispered to himself: "We are not the Era of Glory, we have no confidence, and are as arrogant as they were back then. What's more, even the Era of Glory has paid the price for arrogance, That's why we exist."

"As the successors of the Era of Glory, we certainly cannot repeat the same mistakes. There are hundreds of millions of people behind us - so what if we block the evil god? They have no resistance against the evil god's family."

The memory is over.

Joshua didn't sigh, nor clenched his fists. He was silent for a long time before calmly saying, "Of course, what they said is correct."

"Even I have thought about the way of escaping from An Le Tian, ​​and I created the perfect human body and thought about what kind of abilities the void flesh and blood can bring, just to prevent the situation that most ordinary people can't even fight against the evil god's family." Appearing... I am actually no different from them, and I have not thought about how we should deal with the collective impact of an unknown number of evil gods."

"Unless I become a sage, how did a sage achieve such a state? A sage is not the kind of selfish person who hides his advanced information, but the fact is that he has left no news. We searched the big information database just for Find some clues—the Weakness Cthulhu is a clue, and I will look for its whereabouts later."

"..."

No. 3 did not speak, she held Joshua's hand tightly, and the soldier lowered his head, staring at the densely packed black storage devices under the transparent crystal floor, he was speechless for a while, and then continued: "Actually, I don't have Angry...it's just, No. 3, but I can't help but think about it."

"Even if we managed to escape."

"We who have become the dogs of the bereaved, can we fight back again?"
