Traveler in the Pirate World

Chapter 199: The Dark World Opens Up

Pubs are rarely closed at night. Compared to relatively peaceful places, pubs here must have someone to keep the place under control, otherwise those drunkards who make trouble will let the owner know what it means to lose all his money.

Although he was nearly three meters tall throughout his life, Actophrenia Caesar was still a head shorter than him. Such a height was not considered tall in this world, but it still gave people a strong sense of oppression.

When the meat was served, neither of them touched it immediately. Instead, they looked at the meat on the plate carefully and unobtrusively before eating.

After all, no matter what kind of meat you eat here, it won’t be strange.

"With your ability, you should be very clear about the situation at the card table, right?" Caesar's eating movements were very elegant but not slow. Seriously enjoying food is something that everyone who has been on the verge of starvation does subconsciously.

"Don't gamble on human nature. This is what someone warned me before. Unfortunately, I can't quit. Today I can be considered to have won a small victory." Although Yisheng was blind, he still raised his head and looked straight at Caesar. Between the two neat knife wounds, his eye slits revealed lifeless and pale pupils.

"It seems that we are looking for similar things!" The four looked at each other, and Caesar's eyes were calm. "When I was young, I was always taking action. I thought that as long as I killed more bastards, the world would be more peaceful, but now I am a little confused.

I don’t know whether I was doing those things out of hatred or justice at the time.”

"The reason is not important, what matters is what you do, at least that's what I think." Raise your glass for life and drink together.

Caesar gently put down his glass, lowered his eyes, and said, "I used to believe this, but can we really put aside the reasons?

It cannot be denied that sin is always sin, and the pain that criminals bring to victims will never disappear throughout their lives. No form of atonement can change the fact that they have been hurt.

But what makes this group of criminals, can we really ignore it?

Look at this land. The children here either live in hunger, or steal from a young age, or act as spies for local gangs, and some even learn how to use knives and guns and how to plunder and kill.

Are the so-called good and evil that we have the right to be crowned on this land? At that moment, I suddenly realized that I used to be arrogant in the name of justice.

With just one sentence "you are guilty", I denied other people's way of life. Now their cries always echo in my mind. I don't think I was wrong, at least at that moment I saved something, but I know I didn't do well enough, because at that time I didn't realize at all, where was the root of everything?

They are guilty, but they are not wrong. They should take risks for their way of survival, but that does not mean that all the blame should be placed on them. This is the blame of all mankind."

Yisheng's expression was a little stunned. He looked at Caesar, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"There is only one thing that confuses me. What should I do?" Just as Caesar finished saying this, the dim Eye of God hanging on his chest glowed, and runes symbolizing fire jumped in it.

……

The two chatted for a long time. It seemed that they said a lot, but it was more like talking to themselves. They were both looking for their future path.

Returning to the inn at night, Caesar looked up at the sky and called for the summons of the gods for the first time. "Death, the symbol of the end of all things, please listen to my call. Your servant is begging for your summons."

The next moment, heaven and earth changed, a pungent smell filled the air, the scorching heat burned everything, and the air was distorted wherever the eye could see.

Red lava flowed on the dark earth. The white and black smoke merged with the cold air in the sky, gathering into terrifying rolling thunderclouds that seemed like they would fall to the earth at any time.

In the dark world, a white figure stood quietly, as if it was the center of the world, so eye-catching.

The girl's face was far more beautiful than the first time he saw it. Caesar didn't know how to describe such beauty. It was like looking up at the starry sky and gazing at the world. It was a kind of understanding that should only appear when faced with the ultimate majestic beauty of nature, but at this moment it was concentrated on the god before him.

It’s like facing the world.

Caesar lowered his head involuntarily. This was not the etiquette required by the girl, but the gap in life levels was too big. Even as the girl's waiter, he still couldn't look her in the eye for long.

"You want to change, but you don't know how to change, and you're confused about what you want to change." Lily's voice came from above. The voice itself represented power. Caesar's heartstrings couldn't help but tremble. Countless past events flashed through his mind. In an instant, he seemed to have gone through his life again, and everything became clear.

He knew that even if he didn't say anything, the girl would know why he was there.

"Desire, instinct, rationality, sensibility, knowledge, cognition... everything constitutes the complexity of human beings, which also means that no matter how perfect the social system is, it is impossible to completely eradicate the birth of evil.

Everything in the world has two sides, yin and yang work together, good and evil go hand in hand, the cause and effect in the world are entangled, turning into the shackles called fate, entangling the world, everything is set, and it is not set; everything can be changed, and it cannot be changed.

Caesar's humanity is inalienable, and the driving force behind all so-called evil can also, at certain times, become a force for human progress and strength.

What human nature needs is never deprivation, but restraint, a restraint called cost and reward.

Everything you do should have a price and a reward. Those who do good should be rewarded with good results, and those who do evil should be punished with evil. Merits and demerits cannot offset each other, and everything has its rewards and punishments.

As the only servant under my authority of death, since you are willing, I will open another one in this world.

I say that Heaven and Earth have merits, so those who do good in human nature will gain merits; I say that Heaven and Earth have karma, so those who do evil in human nature will have karma added to them. Merits and karma cannot offset each other, and rewards and punishments are two separate things. During one’s lifetime, one should be judged by humanity, and after death, one will be judged by the underworld.

Merits equal longevity after death. When the soul returns to the underworld, one can practice cultivation and seek immortality. When merits become a circle, one will become a ghost god and can ascend to the throne of god.

Karma turns into karmic fire. As long as the karma is not exhausted, the karmic fire will not stop. It will burn his spirit and burn his mind. His soul will die and scatter into reincarnation. There will be no such person in the world anymore."

As the girl's voice fell, the heaven and earth trembled suddenly. The Yellow Spring, the place where all souls return, was turned upside down. In the world representing the dead, countless spirits began to arrange and reorganize, and an endless continent was born above the surging Yellow Spring.

The sun and the moon rotate, the stars shine brightly, the wind blows in the cloudy world, and all things come into being when the heaven and earth are opened.

Countless mountains rise from the ground, the tallest of which reaches the sky, rivers and lakes divide the earth, trees are growing, souls are gestating, and a pure world of the undead is opened up at this moment by the power of the god of death.

Countless golden and red lights, which are never seen by the world, fell on the earth, and all the dead creatures were drawn by the power of reincarnation into the world after death.

Most of the souls had golden lights inside their bodies and faint blood-red flames burning outside their bodies, causing them great pain, but the flames would mostly disappear quickly.

A few people were completely burned by the red flames. They struggled and wailed, but could not extinguish the flames on their bodies. Even if the golden light in their bodies disappeared completely and their souls turned into pure spirits between heaven and earth, their consciousness and mind would still be burned by the flames forever until their karma was burned out.

There are even fewer people who have golden wheels on their backs and golden seals in their hands. They hold power in the underworld, sit high in the position of underworld gods, rule over a piece of land, and communicate between yin and yang.

Caesar's gaze crossed the space, he looked at it all in a daze, he saw the originally chaotic Yellow Springs, the sky and the earth became clear, the sun and the moon were born, the starry sky was lit, and the ever-turbulent Yellow Springs Sea gradually calmed down. He saw the birth of a continent, and it seemed to spread outward endlessly. He saw towering mountains, rolling rivers, growing plants, and the birth of all living things. This was a complete world.
