mechanical court

The walls of the corridor are made of the hardest rock, and the thin lattice pattern on it extends all the way to the deepest underground.

After advancing for about 10 minutes, a straight stone step appeared in the corridor. The step looked like the slope of a pyramid, and there were countless stages against the background of the dark environment.

Climbing up the stairs, Ivan saw a huge underground palace, and at that moment, he was completely stunned.

Because in another world line, there is no underground palace in the ruins of Terra, and there is only a huge storage room at the end of the stairs.

"..."

Ivan narrowed his eyes and carefully inspected the underground palace in the darkness, his expression gradually becoming serious.

The style of the walls, columns, reliefs, and ceilings in the underground palace belonged to the ancient Terra style, but the rest of the parts were obviously incompatible with the Terra civilization. There were traces of patchwork and reconstruction everywhere in the entire underground palace; This mysterious and powerful force has undergone high-precision transformation and incorporated a large number of instruments and equipment that do not belong to the Terra civilization.

However, because the reformer's methods were so clever that others could not notice the abnormality at all. Only Ivan, who was extremely proficient in mechanical transformation, could see a little clue.

"Is it Herder?"

"No...impossible!"

"All this in front of me is a problem for me, and there is no reason for her to do it."

With all kinds of doubts, Ivan walked towards the depths of the underground palace, and found that the core area of ​​the underground palace was filled with a layer of faint blue fluorescence, and the air was full of mystery.

In the center of the underground palace is a huge crater, and a stone bridge is suspended above the crater.

"That is!!!"

The moment he saw the stone bridge, Yiwen's pupils suddenly shrank, revealing a hint of surprise.

From his point of view, he could see that the bridge body was cut off by the volley, and at the end of the broken bridge, there was a blue inverted pyramid-shaped instrument suspended.

At the end of the broken bridge, above the crater.

An inverted pyramid radiating blue fluorescent light in all directions is suspended in mid-air, the surface textures converge into a strange magic eye pattern, and the crooked characters around the magic eye are the characters of Terra.This magical and mysterious style is combined with the heavy historical atmosphere of the ancient times, making it look like a mysterious instrument with special magic power, and also like a clay tablet engraved with ancient epics.

"Although I don't know what it is...but another world line obviously doesn't exist."

Ivan walked to the end of the broken bridge, stretched out his left hand by feeling, and gently touched the magic eye.

Following his touch, a layer of clear blue light suddenly appeared on the surface of the inverted pyramid, and those mysterious Terra scripts re-ignited, shining brightly.

At this moment, Ivan's consciousness was instantly connected to some kind of information network, and a strange information was continuously poured into his brain, gradually forming an unquestionable majestic voice

"At the beginning of all things, the source of will... the gods came to the world."

"They live at the end of the world. Although they have great powers, no one knows."

"Amid loneliness and resentment, the gods decided to create their own world..."

"Where there is creation, there must be destruction."

"There must be sacrifices among them to usher in a new life."

"Amidst the hesitation, the twelve gods stood up."

As time went by, that majestic voice quickly rang through his mind, and a clear picture formed in his consciousness. Among the twelve gods, ten were apostles he knew, and the remaining two... Although the image is still very vague, if combined with Michelle's prediction, it is obvious that it is Michelle and Ozma!

"It's nonsense! Apostle suicide can create a new world? It's nonsense, only a fool would believe it!" Ivan sneered at the content of the words, and withdrew his left hand that touched the magic eye symbol.

However, at this moment, the voice chanting in the consciousness suddenly became several times louder, and repeated the same content over and over again

"Where there is creation, there must be destruction."

"There must be sacrifices among them to usher in a new life."

The rumbling sound came like ocean waves... it was endless and never stopped for a long time.

The voice was full of bewitchment and power, like the devil's language hovering and reverberating in Ivan's consciousness without being limited by time and space, and could even affect the material world, forming ripples visible to the naked eye.

"You can't lie to me!"

"Nonsense! It's all nonsense!"

"I don't believe it... I don't believe it!"

Ivan pressed his temples hard with both hands, endured the pain of a splitting headache, tried to concentrate, and resisted the bursts of extremely erosive brain-inducing sounds.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

He raised his head abruptly, let out a roar, and a molten golden mist appeared in the depths of his pupils, instantly illuminating the entire underground palace.

"Go to hell!"

The next moment, Ivan gritted his teeth sharply, and looked again at the inverted pyramid-shaped thing at the end of the broken bridge—two beams of light pierced through the molten gold pupils, and directly hit the surface of the magic eye logo.

Boom-!

The inverted pyramid-shaped thing fell apart, and then lost its buoyancy and fell rapidly, falling into the crater below.

Immediately afterwards, the voice hovering in Ivan's consciousness suddenly weakened, and soon disappeared completely.

Chapter 1 The Great Will

With the disappearance of that strange sound, Ivan's consciousness returned to normal, and the mist in his eyes also subsided; then he walked quickly to the end of the broken bridge, overlooking the remains of the inverted pyramid that fell into the crater.

"What kind of evil thing is this... It can actually affect my will."

Looking at the fragments that were still flashing blue light after being shattered, the corner of Ivan's mouth twitched, and his heart couldn't be more surprised.

Not to mention after being an advanced apostle, even when he has just practiced the infinite magic spell and truly completed the unity of light and darkness, his soul will has been strong enough to ignore any spiritual attack.But the previous inverted pyramid-shaped ancient ruins were able to break through his mental defenses and directly exert influence on his will... It was simply a super-standard existence.

"Is ancient Terra so terrible?"

Ivan narrowed his eyes, and first suspected that it was the spiritual weapon of ancient Terra, but this guess was immediately overturned by himself: "It doesn't make sense, if Terra's weapons are really so powerful, then the twelve apostle-level Beyana , it is impossible to die together with the entire Terra civilization.”

Thinking of this, his figure flickered and disappeared, and then appeared at the bottom of the crater, next to the fragments of the inverted pyramid scattered all over the place.

"What exactly are you?"

Ivan squatted down, picked up a fragment from the ground, and put it in his hand to observe carefully.

The material of these fragments is very special, neither metal nor stone, but there are obvious traces of precision parts.

Some of these parts are no strangers to Ivan. During those years when he ruled another world line, he has studied the ruins of Terra thoroughly, and it can be seen that those parts are indeed products of Terra civilization.

But the other part is very strange. Although it can be seamlessly connected with the parts of Terra civilization, it has obvious traces of foreign countries-like some kind of powerful force, targeting the ruins of the inverted pyramid originally belonging to Terra. Secondary processing.

"Could it be that!?"
