Reincarnation Paradise: There are vests everywhere

Chapter 2280: The Blazing Sun
"Here comes the troublemakers, such a familiar aura." Lin Jiu was the first to sense the auras of several souls approaching them. No surprise, they were the troublemakers from the Fiery Sun Sect. However, Lin Jiu felt a sense of familiarity from the auras of these guys.

This was not a feeling from this world, but something that had happened in other worlds. This was not a bad thing, they were originally here to investigate anomalies, and if the other party was acting strange, it would prove that his plan was sound.

The group saw the guys who came to cause trouble. Leona wanted to see which guys were wrong, but when she saw the people who came, most of them were not people she knew.

Lin Jiu glanced at the three figures that appeared in their sight, and he recognized two of them. However, the guy in the middle who was holding a scale and had the strangest appearance was completely unfamiliar.

"Atreus!?" Leona finally recognized a person. It was the tall and straight figure on the left, with muscles as strong and gnarled as the trunk of an ancient oak tree. Every inch of his skin seemed to be forged by the smoke of war and the light of the stars, and he was surrounded by an undying will to fight.

He wore a war helmet, the top of which was like a sharp star, flashing a cold and sacred light. His eyes, through the narrow eye mask, revealed a bloodthirsty look. He held a shield and a spear, and his cloak fluttered behind him in the cold wind.

"It can be seen that he is no longer the Atreus you mentioned." Lin Jiu said calmly.

Since childhood, Atreus' goal has been to join the military cult of Rakkor, "Lahorak", also known as the Templar. During a patrol, Atreus encountered an invasion by barbarians, and only two people from the entire Rakkor patrol survived.

When the Solari refused to fight the invaders, Atreus and another survivor, his brother Pylas, vowed to seize the power of the Protoss themselves, and they decided to climb to the top of Mount Targon.

Like many before them, they underestimated the brutality of the climb. Before Pylas reached the summit, his life trembled like a candle in the wind, and finally disappeared. When the sky opened, only Atreus remained, and he would become the carrier of the holy spirit, and he would have the power to avenge his grievances.

But the conditions of the War Star Spirit are undoubtedly much more demanding. Not only must you reach the top of the Titan Peak, but you must also meet Pantheon's requirements. As a warrior who has been defeated many times but has fought again and again, Atreus did not meet the requirements and became Pantheon's body.

Atreus's consciousness was sealed into the farthest corner of his mind, and he could only see the war spirit walking around the world through blurry visions. However, Atreus did not die, he became the new war spirit Pantheon.

The Protoss that occupied his body was pierced in the chest by the Darkin's God-killing Blade, carving a mark on the constellation of war in the sky. As the Protoss gradually dissipated, Atreus woke up again.

Atreus, who survived by chance, realized that he had been looking up at the stars all his life, but had never thought about the world under the stars. Mortals are different from gods. Mortals fight because they have no choice, because they know that death is always waiting. He saw this tenacity in all life, because the threat of death never ends.

Barbarian raiders now threaten Rakkor settlements to the north, including Iura's farm. Atreus realizes that the barbarians are no different than the Rakkor, both mortals torn by conflict, caught between two greater powers. As such, Atreus feels the same resentment for the darkin and the protoss. They are the same, they are the problem.

Facing the Darkin, Atreus ignited the weapons of the War Aspects with his own will and became a new War Aspect. Leona is not from the same era as Atreus. Atreus was a warrior who was active in the ancient Shurima Empire and experienced the Darkin War.

Leona knew about Atreus because of the records and descriptions of him in the Solari texts. As for why the records were left, it was naturally because a war broke out between the Solari of Mount Targon and the Ascended Army of Shurima at that time. There are many reasons for the outbreak of war, and one of the most important factors is probably the struggle of faith.

Both factions believed in the sun, but this did not mean that they were as close as brothers. Instead, they were likely to clash for the sake of orthodox beliefs. In addition, the Ascended from the Shurima Empire who had fallen into the Darkin had also caused severe damage to the Rakkor, which was also a major factor in the war.

Diana, who was beside Lin Jiu, frowned as she looked at the figure on the right and asked, "Aphelios, why are you here? Have you abandoned your faith?"

Diana and Aphelios also did not exist in the same period, but as the actual controller of the Lunari now, Diana knew about the existence of Aphelios, the Lunari's sharpest weapon.

That was the time when the Solari began to expel the Lunari, and the Lunari were forced to remain in the shadows, living in caves and temples far away from the Sun's sight.

During a rare lunar conjunction, twin brother and sister Aphelios and Alune were born. When the moon is in conjunction, the spiritual mirror image of the moon coincides with its real body. The siblings who were born at this time were also regarded as the children of destiny by the Lunari, who were not led by Diana at the time.

Aphelios' body is as strong as lunar rock, while Alune's magic is like the spiritual shadow of the moon. They were raised with a fervent devotion to mystery, contemplation, and enlightenment. They embraced darkness not only because of their faith, but also because it was the only place they felt safe.

Aphelios would use pain to empty himself, becoming a conductor of the power of the moon. Alune existed in the spirit realm, living alone, isolating herself in the fortress. Together, they were the weapon the Lunari needed, connected by pain and sacrifice. Only by being apart could they stay together, their souls lightly touching at opposite ends of the veil, thousands of miles away, yet incredibly close at hand.

Lin Jiu was not surprised by the appearance of Aphelios and Atreus. After all, the Solari Cult occupied the Titanic Peak, the home of the Protoss, and now there is an abnormal situation, using all the Protoss possessed people as weapons, which is not surprising to Lin Jiu. Diana and Leona are still normal, which is very lucky.

At this moment, Lin Jiu's focus was not on these two guys at all, but on the figure in the middle. He could really feel the familiar aura: "The power of the abyss? Isn't this a derivative world?"

Being able to feel the invasion of the abyss in the derivative world was what Lin Jiu found most incredible. What was the derivative world? It was equivalent to a small world created by Samsara Paradise through the core of the attributeless world. It was the basic foundation of Samsara Paradise. The derivative world could be invaded by the abyss, which meant that Samsara Paradise was invaded by the abyss, didn't it?

How is this possible? It is totally impossible. Lin Jiu's first reaction was that it was an erosion effect produced by a force very similar to the power of the abyss, such as the mysterious "void", which might be the source of this invading force. But after thinking about it carefully, there was no description of the characteristics of this power in the background stories of the "heroes" born in the void, so it didn't quite fit.
