The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After clarifying the cause and effect, Leo asked Gaia: "You want me to fulfill my promise to kill him on the stone throne?"

"Yes." Gaia nodded and admitted.

Leo was silent for a while, and quickly asked again: "What if I don't want to?"

"We can't force you either." Gaia returned to Leo's question, then smiled again, and said, "This is not the first time you've stood here, you've asked the same question every time you've stood here, I gave you the same answer, and you're bound to ask why I can't force you, right?"

Leo froze for a moment, nodded and agreed with Gaia's guess, indeed he was going to ask Gaia this question just now.

"This is also the question you asked before, and I will answer you again now, I hope there will be no next time." Gaia raised her hand and waved it slightly while talking, and the surrounding scene changed again. This time they were no longer in the same room. At the top of the world tree, he came to the abyss, and just facing the abyss purgatory, pointed to the purgatory controlled by the ghoul king on the first floor below, and said, "This is the reason."

Leo didn't understand what was going on at first, but soon he thought of the whole picture of Sylvia's domain he saw, thought of the corpse of the ancient, and confirmed in surprise: "It's so difficult to form an abyss purgatory." The ancients are the founders of the Supreme Council of the universe?"

"Not exactly." Gaia affirmed Leo's guess, and said: "It has taken us a lot of energy to escape the collapse of the universe, and creating the world tree world has almost drained our little energy left. Our original idea was Create a universe-like world, and then use this strange world to restore power. As a result, the world we created is so perfect that it is completely beyond our control. The last bit of strength in our bodies was drained, and what was even worse was that we, who were on the verge of death, attracted the abyss. In the end, except for me, the other creators fell into the abyss under the bewitchment of the abyss. Became part of the abyss purgatory."

After hearing this, Leo was completely stunned in place, his mind was blank, and he didn't know how to react for a while. Although he had already guessed, getting the exact answer from Gaia still made him feel unbelievable, after all In his cognition, Gaia, the original beings of the universe, are immortal. Even if the universe disappears, they can still exist, but he never thought of these origins of the universe that he can only look up to. In the end, it turned out to be such an ending. A strong sense of desolation that had never been felt before was produced in my heart and gradually spread.

Gaia didn't pay attention to Leo's emotions, and continued to say in a flat tone: "Now the entire Supreme Court is like a tomb, and I, the survivor, is nothing more than a gravekeeper, and I can support this now." The illusion is already very strenuous, and there is no extra power to force you."

"Tomb?" Leo heard the words, looked down at the abyss and purgatory below, and asked tentatively: "Is it possible that the bodies of those ancient existences are still in the High Court?"

Hearing Leo's question, Gaia looked at Leo appreciatively, and said, "This is the first time you've asked me this question, and you've never asked me this question before." Afterwards, He nodded and answered Said: "Yes, their bodies are preserved in the Supreme Court, not only their bodies, but the bodies of all members of the Supreme Council are preserved in the Supreme Court."

Leo couldn't help asking curiously: "Can I see what they look like?"

It’s no wonder that Leo would ask such excessive questions. It’s because he has always been particularly curious about the image of the members of the Supreme Council of the Universe, and not only him, but all beings who know the Supreme Council of the Universe will involuntarily I am curious about the appearance of those councilors who stand at the top of the life in the universe, as if there is a conceptual power that can arouse curiosity in the supreme council of the universe.

It’s just that, except for those councilors of advanced civilizations and special medium civilizations, and a few councilors in special forms who have disclosed their appearances, all the councilors of the Supreme Council of the universe are a mystery, and because of this, some universes Civilization believes that the members of the so-called supreme council of the universe are just illusions deliberately created by some advanced cosmic civilizations in order to control the power of the universe.

"No." Gaia rejected Leo's request, and said: "The body of a congressman who has lost the control of his original consciousness is too dangerous, let alone you who have not yet become an Omega-level advanced life form, even if you become an Omega Even if you are a super advanced life form, you cannot face those bodies, as long as you look at those bodies, they will inevitably be polluted by the out-of-control forces in the body."

Gaia's refusal did not make Leo feel any displeasure, and he quickly asked another question: "Why did they leave their bodies in the Supreme Court, and only let the original consciousness and the abyss merge?"

"Because they hope that before their bodies are completely corrupted, a new universe will appear, so that they may be able to be reborn in that new universe." Gaia replied.

Leo hesitated for a moment and asked, "Haven't they already become part of the abyss? Why can they still be reborn?"

However, this question has not been answered by Gaia.

So, Leo immediately asked again: "Can you tell me what benefits you can get from me killing him?"

Gaia said calmly: "Think carefully, I told you just now."

Leo froze for a moment, then confirmed: "Is it the new universe and rebirth?"

Gaia nodded, perhaps anticipating what Leo would ask next, so she took the initiative to explain: "The light of origin was born when the universe appeared. He can be said to be the universe itself, and he has everything in the universe. Mystery, that's why He can become the special universe of the World Tree. You and that person also have the power of the light of origin, but the power of the light of origin in you has been dissipated in rebirth again and again, and these dissipated The light of origin power that went out is concentrated in that person, and according to our inference, the light of origin power in that person should contain the secrets of the universe. Just like the power of light of origin will escape after you die Similarly, after his death, the power of light of origin in his body will dissipate, and the mystery of the origin of the universe contained in it will dissipate at that time, and a new universe is very likely to be produced at that time. After all, the universe is immortal. It will only repeat itself in birth and collapse."

As he said that, he suddenly froze for a moment, as if he had thought of something, looked at Leo, and murmured, "It's like the undead talent in you."

Leo quickly understood what the other party meant, and said with a smile, "You mean I am the universe?"

"Why is it impossible?" Gaia seemed to take Leo's words seriously, fell into thinking, and said to himself: "Indeed, if it is the universe, then all problems can be explained."

Hearing this, Leo didn't know what to say, so he could only stand aside and wait for Gaia to recover from his contemplation.

Gaia did not meditate for a long time, only less than a minute, but even if it was only a minute, it was enough for him to analyze all the data and data of the Supreme Council of the universe monitoring Leo, and there was no result after analyzing these data before. Different, after completing the analysis now, Gaia has determined that the origin of Leo's undead talent is the universe, but it is not their universe, but another universe.

However, even knowing the origin of Leo's undead talent is useless to Gaia. If he knew about it when the universe just collapsed, it might be useful. If his companions Before they all abandoned their bodies and fell into the abyss, knowing this matter would also be of great use, but now even if he knew this matter, it was impossible for him to use Leo's undead talent to do anything.

Thinking of this, Gaia couldn't help but sighed, then turned to look at Leo, and asked, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Indeed, there is one more question." Leo could feel Gaia's emotional change, and he could vaguely guess that this emotional change might be related to his undead talent, but he didn't pursue it, but asked instead Another question, said: "If I kill the one on the stone throne, what will happen to me?"

"I don't know." Gaia shook his head and said, "We have speculated on countless possibilities, but you must know that this is a subspace, where any data in the normal universe will be distorted, and the possibilities we speculate must be wrong. , because it is an extrapolation based on the laws of the normal universe."

After hearing this, Leo was silent for a moment, and said: "I have no problem, please send me away now, I want to go to the Stone Throne."

Although hearing that Leo was going to the Stone Throne, it seemed that he wanted to fulfill the promise, but Gaia did not show any joy, nodded, and said: "No need! It is impossible to reach the Stone Throne from the outside. "

After finishing speaking, he saw him move to Leo's side in an instant, and put his hand on Leo's shoulder. The scene in front of him changed instantly, and he saw that they had come to the edge of the ruins of the highest council of the universe, and the stone throne was just above Not far away, it feels like you only need to use the psionic wings to fly a certain distance to reach it.

However, Leo knew very well that this seemingly short distance should only be an illusion of subspace, and the distance between the two is very likely to be very far away, so far that it may be calculated in light years.

"I can only send you here." Gaia let go of her hand and said:

"How do I get there?" Leo asked.

"Use your strength." Gaia replied, and then disappeared in front of Leo.

After Gaia disappeared, Leo thought about it, and he felt that the power Gaia mentioned should not refer to psionic power, but the power of the stone throne in his body.

So, Leo tried to use the power of the Stone Throne, and got in touch with the Stone Throne suspended above the Supreme Council of the universe, and almost at the moment of contact, a pulling force shrouded his body, but instantly Disappeared, and he had left the fragment on the edge of the Supreme Council of the universe, and appeared on a stone pillar square, and this stone pillar square was very similar to the stone pillar square in his consciousness, only the area of ​​the stone pillar square and the stone pillars on it The number is countless times greater.

"You are here again!"

A voice that was exactly the same as my own penetrated into my ears, and then I saw a huge stone throne appearing in the sky above the Stone Pillar Square, then shrunk at an extremely fast speed, and fell towards Leo at the same time, finally landed on Lei Ou In front of Ou.

Looking at the stone throne that appeared in front of him, and then at the figure sitting on the stone throne, Leo had an unexpected look on his face, because the figure he saw was indeed just a figure, it was a blurred human figure The image, the face is completely unclear, and even the hands and feet are blurred from time to time.

However, even if it is only a blurred image, it can still make Leo feel that if the other party becomes a reality, he should be able to look exactly the same as himself, but it only looks exactly the same. Therefore, the difference is huge. After all, the other party is already more than ten meters high just sitting.

"Again? Except for the first time, have I been here before?" Although in Leo's memory, it was the first time he saw the person on the stone throne, but he felt that he already knew him Countless years, just like an old friend, the tone of conversation is not unfamiliar.

"Yes, after that one time, you came twice," he on the stone throne said calmly, "Both times, you opened the space rift and ran to the subspace before I came. It's you who didn't leave this time, talk to me."

Leo felt a little speechless about the two actions of his amnesia. If you are worried about problems, you should not come to the Stone Throne. Since you are here, even if you want to leave, you must at least meet the Stone Throne.

Although the person on the stone throne didn't mind those two actions, Leo still felt a little uncomfortable.

Affected by his uncomfortable feeling, he quickly changed the subject and said, "I don't know your name yet."

"Lin Wei." The person on the stone throne replied: "This is the name you gave at the beginning. You said that this name is a name from your past, which has a special meaning."

Leo couldn't help but feel inexplicable when he heard this very common oriental name, because when he used this name, it happened to be when he was working in the Chang'an star area of ​​the Earth Federation, and at that time he met the first woman who made him feel moved Li Hongmei.

Leo didn't think much about why he gave this name to the other party. He quickly adjusted his emotions and said: "I know our original promise and what I should do, but there are still some things I don't understand. Without figuring out these things, it’s hard for me to do it.”

"Ask!" Lin Wei on the stone throne responded calmly.

Leo asked politely, "Why do you want me to kill you? Isn't it hard to live with such a great life?"

Lin Wei was silent for a while, and said: "Because life without death is incomplete, I want to know what death is."
