Soul of Burning Steel

Joshua's memory went back not long ago, when he first came to Fairy Township.

Compared with when I first came to the Fairy Township, the Fairy Township now looks much more normal. The four elements of earth, water, fire and wind rotate in rotation, forming a stable and beautiful world. In this world, whether it is The red glow in the sky, or the flowers and plants on the ground, are all mimics formed by the condensed elements. It can be seen that there are countless shimmering particles flickering and rotating around these solid substances, emitting bright and gorgeous brilliance.

And when Joshua's avatar descended, one could see that a group of goblins seemed to have known this for a long time, and they were waiting directly at the place where he descended to welcome him.

"Her Majesties have long known of your intention to come, please come with us, Lord Radcliffe."

The water goblin at the head was quite serious and could speak very normal scenes smoothly, but the goblins who followed her were a little bold and curious. They hid behind the goblin and excitedly told Qiao Xiu Asia refers to pointing.

"Look, that iron lump looks like a human being!"

"Nonsense, it's obviously a human being, but it doesn't look like it because of its strength!"

"It's obviously not a human... Where is there someone whose body is made of metal, just like where is there a goblin who uses the four elements as his body?"

The goblins were free and happy, and Joshua naturally knew this long ago, but hearing the other party quarreled over whether he was human or not, the warrior still couldn't help but turn dark.

What only four elements are used as the body... Have you heard of the artificial goblin plan of the empire? Have you heard of the Silver Goblin? If you are covered in iron, you are not human anymore? Still too young, too little experience, too simple thinking.

Of course, this happy thought only existed for a moment, and Joshua silently let the water goblin lead the way.

This time he came to Fairy Township, not to enjoy the scenery and relax, but to go directly to the four Fairy Queens, and get some important information from these perhaps the oldest beings in the current Mycroft civilization of.

The entire Fairy Township presents a semi-circular structure with a round sky and a round place. The flat land is completely composed of solid earth elements, and underneath it is a mantle-like structure formed by raging fire elements, while the sky is completely composed of surging earth elements. The wind element is composed of the sun, the fire element is in the center, and the water element forms a lake on the earth, and changes rain clouds in the sky, forming a large cycle across the sky and the earth.

The basic circulation of the four elements is roughly like this. Naturally, there are many other details of the circulation, such as the mixture of fire and earth elements such as volcanoes, and the circulation phenomenon caused by the mixture of three elements of fire, earth and water in thermal gap fountains. , Joshua followed the water element all the way, but also took a rough look at the scenery of Fairy Township.

"When you came last time, the Queen of the Earth was seriously injured, that's why the Earth looked like that, misty and scattered... Originally, it would take decades or even hundreds of years for that kind of injury to heal, but now With the help of other legendary powerhouses, Her Majesty has almost recovered."

Along the way, the water element fairy who took the lead was explaining to Joshua the current situation in Fairy Township, and also mentioned several human legends who helped the Fairy Queen heal her injuries with reverence.

As soon as Joshua heard the goblin's description of those people, he immediately knew who the people who helped the goblin queen were...a kind middle-aged man with nothing on his head, and a cleansing old mage with a prosthetic eye. A clear-faced female spellcaster with crystal-like hair... Isn't this Barbarossa, Barnier and Faina?

It seems that after exploring the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrificial Field, the legends took the initiative to help each other heal in order to thank the fairy queens for lending them the goblin township as a forward base. This description is a bit too realistic.

Originally, Joshua thought that this might just be the habit of ordinary elves. They live in the elf village that does not need to communicate with the outside world all year round, and they are powerful, so they maintain this innocent way of life... But when he sees you When he was the Fairy Queen, he realized that this was not a habit at all, but the nature of a goblin.

"Ah, I remember you!"

Huge and majestic, it doesn't look like an elemental furnace palace that a goblin can build. There are four huge goblin statues at least 400 meters high engraved on the four walls. Each goblin statue is composed of pure corresponding magic elements, which contain A terrifying energy aura capable of destroying everything. Facing the explosion of four elemental forces that might be enough to destroy a world, Joshua just praised "big enough", and then stood calmly in the center of the hall, waiting for the four fairy queens to come from Fairy Township. The will and spirit gathered from all over the world turned into communicable entities and descended.

As for the first incarnation of the earth element to arrive, the Queen of the Earth happily stretched out her small hand and pointed at Joshua: "You are the thin and fierce human being!"

Joshua, who looks thin and fierce in clothes: "???"

In an instant, the remaining three elemental fairy queens also descended one after another.

Unlike the gigantic Palace of Elemental Furnaces, the legendary Fairy Queens didn't intentionally make themselves bigger. They still maintained the normal fairy body shape, that is, they were only as big as an ordinary person's palm, floating around the Hall of Elements. On the wall, the fingers of the four huge goblin statues... are on the small throne carved out of it.

It has to be said that ordinary people are really hard to guess what the goblins think. They built four giant statues hundreds of meters high in the palace of the furnace of elements, and then carved their own thrones on the fingers of these four statues... If not Joshua's eyesight is excellent, and it is really impossible for ordinary people to see the figures of the four fairy queens clearly when standing on the ground.

But Joshua didn't come here to complain about the customs of goblins. In that case, he might not be able to finish talking about the strangeness of goblins in a few days.

The appearance of the goblins is no different from the miniature version of the elves. This is related to the fact that the first intelligent life they saw when they determined their race form was the elves. In order to make it easier to distinguish the differences between each goblin, most of them have a Wings on elements of different styles.

Unlike the rumors on the ordinary continent, fairies are pure elemental beings, and the average strength of the group is no less than that of dragons. Every adult fairy has the strength of a silver-level elemental mage, and they have phase shields and spiritual shields. With a strong body, it is difficult for ordinary physical and magical attacks to harm them.

What's more, the goblin is small in size and extremely fast. If it can be determined to destroy it with all its strength, it can almost be said to be a miniature fort with extremely small targets, which can cause terrifying damage in certain special areas.

Goblins have the world's first-class forging technology and power inheritance. They can forge holy swords and artifacts. They are the race with the most legendary powerhouses in addition to humans and dragons. It is rumored that the casting of the holy sword Mistedin has a goblin With the help of the spirit craftsman, in the legend, the demon spirit craftsman even sacrificed his own life, which made the indestructible Mistedin holy sword take shape.

Of course, this must be false.

The Queen of the Earth, if she had a normal human size, would look like a gentle elf young woman. The wings on her back were in the shape of a butterfly, and the constantly flowing fluctuations of the earth elements formed the complicated patterns on the butterfly wings. It can be seen that those ripples are actually some kind of powerful elemental spell model, as long as its owner is willing, he can easily cast countless such spells instantly.

The Empress of Canghai looks like a young and beautiful elf girl with long sea-blue hair floating behind her, but...the wings behind her look a bit weird, Joshua feels that it seems a bit like some kind of A sail, or some kind of shark fin? The warrior was a little confused about what it looked like, but because of the surging water element fluctuations on it, it didn't look like a serious problem.

The Queen of the Sun, on the surface, is a beautiful woman with a curvy figure. She is looking at Joshua's hair curiously, muttering something like 'this thing doesn't seem to burn'. Joshua coughed, interrupting the Queen's muttering, but when the soldier saw the shape of the queen's wings, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

Because... that is exactly a pair of rocket nozzles!

In the cylindrical fire element structure, flowing flame magic power is constantly ejected... This structure is basically two rockets suspended behind the queen, and has nothing to do with wings!

Finally, there is Queen Tianlan. This fairy queen is normal both in appearance and wings. She has the appearance of a heroic elf hunter, and a pair of wings that look like a winged man, which can be vaguely seen, a little windy The energy feathers formed by the condensed elements continued to fall, and then melted into the air.

Of course, the above four queens are only half the size of Joshua's palm.

Quite cute.

"I know your purpose, Lord Radcliffe."

The first one to speak was Queen Tianlan. This legendary goblin was very normal in tone, appearance and posture. She sat on her little throne and said to Joshua seriously: "You want to learn from us?" Obtaining secret information about 'world shaping' and certain ancient times... Of course we can tell you, but knowledge is priceless, and if you want to exchange it, you must use another kind of knowledge as the price."

"Pay to get rewarded, this is the code of our family."

"I have first-hand information about the condensed power of steel into the prototype of the world, and I can tell you the location of that place."

Joshua naturally knew the customs of goblins a long time ago, and he had already prepared a large price for exchange.

As he said that, the warrior used the power of steel to transmit, and sent the scene of the maelstrom of void that had completely turned into a nebula to the four fairy queens—it could be seen immediately, and the four queens all let out an exclamation. Its content is really important to them.

Indeed, the natural cohesion and birth of countless worlds is undoubtedly a priceless treasure for fairy queens who are determined to create their own worlds, and the first-hand information about the birth of this cohesion is only Joshua who was in it at the time Only with Karlis, the void vortex has entered a stable stage. Going there now, it is estimated that it will take tens of thousands of years to see a valuable change.

"...Although I knew you must have been prepared, I didn't expect you to be so well prepared."

The four empresses happily accepted the information package sent by Joshua, and planned to analyze it together in the future. After accepting the reward, of course they couldn't keep silent. Immediately, Empress Canghai happily said: "Then human beings, Ask whatever you want, we know everything, and we have nothing to say... Well, depending on the situation, sometimes, we still have to leave something unspeakable."

Empress Canghai noticed the warning eyes of other empresses, and had to wave her hands in embarrassment: "I'm just happy for a while, hehe."

Joshua is now a little skeptical. He came to the goblin to ask for information. Did he make a mistake?

But now is not the time to hesitate, the soldier asked without hesitation: "Fairies are the race with the most well-preserved data and the least impact in the three hundred years of loss. I want to know... how do you think about this three hundred years?" In the future multiverse, what about the world and galaxy we live in?"

As soon as this question came up, the originally noisy Temple of the Elemental Furnace fell silent.

No matter how cheerful and unreliable they are on the surface, the fairy queens are still in the realm of legends. When they are serious, even the world will change according to their will.

It can be seen that the waves formed by the four elements surge violently in the dome of the palace, blending and mixing with each other. Unlike the petite and lovely humanoid goblin, this frenzy of elements like a tsunami torrent is the real body of the queen. They are the four waves that are enough to sweep The destructive magic power fluctuations of the entire Fairy Township, and even the entire world, they are mixed with each other, and they use the method of element fusion to communicate in a very secret way.

After a while, the Queen of the Earth, who appeared to be quite serious, came forward and answered Joshua's question.

"Although I don't know why you would ask this question, Earl Radcliffe, but since we have received the reward, we will answer it seriously."

The empress looked calm, and she said in a serious tone: "You ask us what we think about this multiverse and the world galaxy three hundred years ago and three hundred years later, then we have only one answer, and that is a big difference. .”

"What's the difference?"

Joshua asked, the soldier was not surprised by this answer, he actually already had a corresponding answer in his heart, he just wanted to hear it from the fairies and confirm his thoughts from the side.

"In many places, first of all, it is the number of living worlds."

The Queen of the Earth straightened her hair. She flapped her wings and murmured: "You should also know, the so-called 'world order resonance phenomenon'? The formation of an orderly world will lead to the spontaneous condensation of all the surrounding steel forces, becoming The prototype of the world is very similar to that world of order, so around every life world, there are a large number of life worlds with similar living conditions."

"Three hundred years ago, we were not born yet, but our elders were still there. According to the information left by them, the multiverse at that time, or our world galaxy was thriving. Even if it encountered the impact of evil gods, countless The world of life was destroyed, but a large number of worlds survived."

At this moment, the Queen of the Sun interjected: "Perhaps you don't know, there were more than a thousand life worlds around the former world of Mycroft. Although most of them could not colonize normally due to various reasons, they still It existed as the resource world of the civilization of the Glorious Era at that time, and the Mycroft Starfield at that time was called the 'Field of a Thousand Stars'."

"And now, three hundred years later, let alone the Thousand Stars, there are less than thirty dark and bleak worlds left in the entire star field. I suspect that they are lying to me."

The Queen of the Earth coughed and withdrew her right to speak. She nodded and admitted that the Queen of the Sun was right: "Indeed, this is a difference... In addition, we also found that the vast majority of the galaxy in this world Part of the world of life has disappeared, or in other words, changed its orientation, or even been destroyed."

"look."

Then, the Queen of the Earth also showed a light curtain, and in the light curtain, it was the void model of the world galaxy drawn by the Church of the Seven Gods after the deep space observation. The Queen of the Earth pointed to the stars in the light curtain. Dim Xingchen said in a solemn tone: "It shouldn't be, the world galaxy we are in should not have so few life worlds, even if evil gods invade, it is absolutely impossible."

"Yes." Empress Canghai nodded and said with emotion: "The world's self-healing ability is very strong. Even if it encounters the invasion of evil gods, it is impossible to die so quickly. At most, the surface is destroyed and the ecological circle is completely lost."

In response, Joshua couldn't help but nodded.

What the queens said is indeed correct, the world cannot be destroyed so simply.

For example, on the earth in the previous life, the total number of nuclear bombs held by human beings in the 21st century is enough to destroy their own civilization, but it may not be able to destroy the continental ecosystem of the entire earth—let alone the marine ecosystem, even if this If the number is doubled by a hundred times, it is doubtful whether the earth's crust can be completely destroyed. Only when black technology breaks out and the Datong world comes, when interstellar weapons capable of destroying the planet's crust appear, can it pose a threat to the "world".

The same is true for this multiverse. What the evil gods are doing is simply destroying the ecological circle, rather than completely blowing up the world. The world of Lis, even though it has been destroyed for thousands of years, still maintains its own will, and can even save itself, until Joshua's arrival and help.

"With the loss of the ecosystem, the world will indeed fall into a trough, but after a thousand years, the remaining seeds will eventually germinate and slowly revive the world... However, we have not seen a few worlds recovering, and most of them are completely destroyed. This is absolutely abnormal.”

The Queen of the Earth said so. She is a goblin who specializes in earth elements and the earth, and she does have the greatest say in this aspect.

As a result, Joshua also thought of the water-rich world found by the alien exploration team... Indeed, that world is obviously recovering, and a large number of oxygen-producing algae are multiplying rapidly, restoring a normal ecological circle.

"Also, our world galaxy model is also very strange."

This time, it was Queen Tianlan's turn to speak, she reversed the model of the world galaxy, filled it with elements, and turned it into a glowing entity, "Look, according to the theoretical model, the world galaxy generally has only a few forms, and a small part is Elliptical, circular, and most of them are swirls with several cantilevers... But the world galaxy we live in is different."

Noticing that Joshua's complexion had also become strange, Empress Tianlan's tone suddenly became a little low, she sighed softly: "Yes, you also see it clearly?"

"The world galaxy we are in... is concave."

Toothache, want to die, don't ask, asking is neurasthenia
