Throne of Radiance

Facing "Return to the Ruins" in a nightmare, watching hundreds of millions of worlds collapse and die, Bai Yi truly understands the horror of "Return to the Ruins".

Other than that, he has no other emotions.There is no sympathy, regret, or urgency to save the world.

——He doesn't have the empathy of ordinary people, let alone the sense of justice that a normal savior should have.

But fate is so wonderful.

His birth is a miracle created by the infinite world, from the most incredible choice made by the unknown girl who spent her life in a mental hospital to save the world.

Although he does not consider himself to have the glorious qualities of hope, he is undoubtedly the hope that the infinite world and that person believe.

——He bears the fate of all people.

If they refused in vain, everything they did would be meaningless.Even his birth is no longer meaningful.

Facing the faint brilliance of the morning sun, Bai Yi casually ruaed the obedient black cat in his arms, and chatted casually with Xia Jiajia, with a faint smile on his face.

If you receive the cause, you must repay the result. Gifting is also a kind of shackle.If one day, he can repay all the causes and effects, it must be time to break the shackles and completely sublimate, right?

At this moment, a faint understanding emerged in Bai Yi's heart.

... No, it is not accurate to say that it is completely sublimated.

...It should be returning to the essence.

——Condensed from the source of the infinite world and the last hope, he was born in this world in the form of a human fetus, which is a kind of downgrading. When the destiny carried by him is realized, it may be the day when he returns to his essence.

This is also... what Bai Xin expected to see, right?

"Ah, it seems that we should speed up the progress."

Bai Yi summoned the system.

The current system has changed from before.It seems to be more handy and smooth to use.

"... I remember that I still have a real task that I haven't submitted yet?" He was talking about the Rhine incident.

"—Then, submit it now."

Bai Yi did not forget to directly express: "I heard that it is possible to obtain fragments of the Theory of Everything, and I am looking forward to the reward."

In midair, lines of distorted handwriting emerged.

[Under the extraordinary dawn, there is surging darkness.The hope you bring has turned out to be misfortune for some. 】

【—Let go or save, this is a question. 】

[The task has been submitted, the progress is being confirmed...]

As the handwriting of the progress confirmation appeared, Bai Yi was suddenly in a trance.The whole world seemed to stand still.

In the next second, he only felt that his mind was continuously lifted up by an invisible force, as if he suddenly floated out of his body and flew towards the infinite high sky, until he reached the highest point in the world, and he could overlook this vast expanse with just bowing his head. world.

Countless pictures floated before his eyes.

That was during this period of time, since he helped Rhine fight back against the empire, the subsequent influences in various parts of the world...

The fate of countless people has changed as a result.

The choices they made and the distortion of the real world line can all be attributed to the source of Bai Yi, and the changes in their fate are all reflected in Bai Yi's task progress.

Scenes from the past emerged in front of my eyes.

"Reject human experiments, oppose the transcendence plan, and prohibit all evil research using humans as experimental subjects!"

"We need real freedom and equality!"

"Screw those guys who make decisions by patting their asses!"

On the streets of the Morning Star Empire, the parade team roared like a tsunami.

……

On the TV screens on the street, journalists chased and blocked him.

The important figures who showed their faces in the live broadcast of the institute either avoided the reporter's questioning in embarrassment and hurried away under the escort of the bodyguards; Properly declare that everything is a conspiracy between terrorists and enemy countries, and never admit the unwarranted slander...

Until the imperial princess who had disappeared for several days showed up, she faced the camera without dodging or avoiding, and there was an unwavering expression on her rose-like delicate face:

"Yes, everything that appears in the live footage is true."

Her tone was sincere, with a touch of shame in her eyes, she said everything she knew.Even she didn't know much about the Beyond Project.

"I admit that the Transcendence Project does involve human experiments, which hurt innocent citizens of the empire. In fact, I didn't know about this matter much earlier than everyone. But after knowing it, I failed to stop it, but let everything happen. , I am very sorry for this, I failed to shoulder the responsibility of the princess of the empire, and I failed everyone's trust in the royal family..."

——When other people received the news, it was already too late.

The content of the interview has already been released. Using the truth revealed by Princess Fina as an introduction, the reporter also thoroughly revealed the secrets of the Transcendence Plan. Of course, it was not the secrets of the research content. When the transcendence plan was first implemented, the undercurrents in the upper echelons of the empire were surging.

——Ordinary people now know that not everyone supports the Transcendence Plan, but the number of supporters overwhelms the opposition.

——Princess Fina, who stood up and apologized sincerely, is actually a member of the opposition and does not support the progress of the beyond plan.

——She took on the undeserved infamy for those cowards who really should come forward to take responsibility, and she is worthy of her status as a princess.

In front of the TV screen, there were faces suddenly enlightened.From anger, to enlightenment, to understanding, and a little admiration.

……

In the imperial palace of the Morning Star Empire, a fierce quarrel broke out.In other words, it was the old emperor who unilaterally scolded his daughter.

——Before the upper echelons of the empire took action, Princess Fina's preemptive opening undoubtedly made them fall into a passive position. Apart from following her words, all other paths were blocked.

The princess of the empire hung her head and said nothing until the old emperor was tired of scolding, and she raised her head at a loss: "I am causing trouble to the father. I didn't think so much at the time. I was just, just scared, So many people's scolding... I thought it would be better to stand up and admit my mistakes..."

After talking about it, she frowned tightly again, and remonstrated: "Besides, human experimentation is indeed too inhumane. I don't think we should just let Dr. Wells and the others go like this..."

The old emperor looked at his daughter who still had innocence and justice in his eyebrows, and there was a bit of thought in his cloudy old eyes.She didn't know whether her choice this time was by mistake, or on purpose?

However, he knew that this daughter had always been somewhat inappropriately naive and soft-hearted, and it was precisely because of this that he was willing to dote on her a little bit. He also deliberately arranged her into a leisure department with high status and little power. Meeting.

...Should it be just an impulsive mistake?

He restrained the inquiry in his eyes, and sighed in the helpless tone of an old father: "In short, you should think about how to explain to the parliament and the cabinet. They always want to use the royal family to weaken the rights of the emperor. This It was your fault once, and I can’t help you if you speak out without permission. You have to be prepared to leave your previous post and come back to “think about your mistakes behind closed doors” for a while. "

At the end of the picture, the gate of the palace is slowly opened, and the princess of the empire bows out of the palace and walks step by step into the sunlight. The figure of the old emperor melts into the palace where the sun cannot shine.

……

"The recovery of spiritual energy has just begun. Even if we are lucky enough to embark on the road of martial arts practice and become superhumans, we are only limited better than ordinary people. On the contrary, because of our own special crimes, we will become the ones who are in the hands of some powerful people. Rhine is the best example of a human prey!"

In a hidden abandoned building, a group of people gathered here.

Someone stood at the forefront, raising their arms and shouting.

"We need to have stronger power in order to truly grasp our own destiny... But powerful power cannot be obtained in a short period of time. Martial arts practice cannot be done behind closed doors, and more fellows need to communicate with each other and make progress together. For this reason , we want to gather more like-minded companions!"

"I propose that the Martial Arts Mutual Aid Association be established!"

——Countries where martial arts prevail, such as the Sang Country and the Alliance of the Islands.The sensitive nerves of martial arts practitioners were touched by the Morning Star Empire.

——Some people who started to look down on ordinary people because they practiced martial arts suddenly realized that they are still very weak now.In front of the state apparatus, in front of real power, they have no power to resist, and they will be easily crushed.

I don't know which martial arts practitioner made similar remarks, and it was recognized by more and more people.

When others may not have noticed, the first batch of martial arts practitioners began to cautiously test each other, walked together because of similar ideas, and eventually formed an organization.

Since then, extraordinary non-governmental organizations like the "Budao Mutual Aid Association" have been born in corners of the world. They are either open and aboveboard, or carefully concealed. With the initial purpose of self-protection and practice exchanges, they have begun to flourish.

Unknowingly, in these countries, the conflicts and frictions between martial arts practitioners and ordinary people, ordinary people who have no money to practice martial arts, and nobles and rich people who can open gymnasiums and monopolize martial arts practice are intensifying.

……

In an unknown park.

The wind is sunny and the morning light is faint.

A group of old men and women are exercising vigorously in the morning. They are practicing boxing and kicking techniques from martial arts books that are based on health preservation. They all look lighter than young people.

At this moment, on the boulevard not far away, a young woman's exclamation sounded: "It's a robbery! There are bag snatchers!"

As soon as the sound came out, several old men and old ladies rushed out.At the same time, people who heard the shout from a distance also rushed over.

With one foot on the ground, they leaped over the flowerbed nimbly, and they whizzed along the avenue, with explosive power that did not match the old people. They caught up with the bag thief's motorcycle in three or two steps, and one foot just landed on the ground. , then took it as the axis, swung the other leg round and pulled it out, the shadow of the leg was like the shadow of a whip, snap!

The bag snatcher was kicked off the motorcycle, and before he could get up and escape, he was blocked by old men and old women who rushed up, and a group of young people who heard the screams from a little further away arrived. He was dumbfounded by the scene.

"I'll go! The old men and women are so fierce now, they don't give us young people any room to play!"

"That's right! It just so happens that I have made great progress in martial arts recently, and I heard that there are bag snatchers, and I want to try my skills!"

"Why don't you come here to rob and learn two-handed martial arts? Our Yao country is now a hidden dragon and crouching tiger. I don't know how many martial arts masters are among the people. I heard that there is a "War God" sitting in the dark. We can weigh it next time." Weigh it. "

"There is no future in stealing money, so it's better to move bricks. If you start martial arts, your physique can be doubled. If you just find a manual laborer who moves bricks, it's not a problem to earn hundreds of dollars a day. What's more, as long as you have good talent and can build a foundation in martial arts, The state also provides welfare.”

——The only Yao country where the official martial arts are fully implemented.The practice of martial arts has been extended from students to people in society.Major high schools have begun to consider adding martial arts exams, alongside the art exams and general college entrance exams, as another path to university admission.And the martial arts classes in the society are in full swing, and office workers are used to practicing after get off work and on weekends.

Although there are not a few people who commit crimes after practicing martial arts, this small number of people is pitifully small in the large base of the country.Therefore, the number of people capable of stopping crime has increased.

……

Holy Federation, Holy City.

The white, gold, and red buildings that symbolize the holy emblem of the Sun Temple are neatly lined up on the street, full of the sacred, gorgeous and majestic beauty of the Sun Temple.

But at some point, colorful flowers suddenly bloomed in this sacred and solemn golden-red holy city.

On the window sills of buildings, in the corners of the streets, under the flying flags of shops, on the hats and chests of some passers-by...

White, purple, blue, pink, yellow... Colorful flowers bloom in various places in this city, destroying the purity and majesty that originally belonged to the holy city, and the faint fragrance of flowers floats on every road. The streets turned the holy city of the Sun Temple into a city of flowers.

With these blooming flowers, beliefs belonging to the flower whisperers bloomed in the hearts of countless people one after another.

This incredible scene also happened in other cities of the Holy Federation, and it is spreading at an extremely fast speed.

——As the only state-religious country in Zhanlan Planet that is influenced by theocracy, the holy city where the Temple of the Sun is located is the holy place in the minds of everyone in the Holy Federation.But apart from the belief in the sun god, there are also large and small cults in this country.

——Since they believe that the sun god who has never had any miracles is real, it means that the people of this country can easily believe in the real existence of other gods.The Sun Temple can influence them, and other cults can also fool them.

It's just that there are only a small number of people who believe in cults, and other sects except the Sun God Sect are illegal organizations that are explicitly prohibited by the Holy Federation. The fate of the prisoner.

Therefore, the cults of the Holy Federation do not have a long lifespan.Maybe it was only two or three months after its establishment, and it was directly taken over by the official.

But during this period of time, all the cults, large and small, were purged. The existence that claimed to be Samuel seemed to know these sects very well, easily mixed into them, and successfully seized the dominance of the sects, large and small. Quan, fooling those heretics to "reform their evil ways and return to righteousness" and believe in the "Flower Whisperer", a real god who walks in the world.

——And this also made the Holy Federation officials beware.

Then, the unthinkable happened.

The Holy Federation, which should have believed in the Sun God wholeheartedly and severely cracked down on illegal beliefs, was directly split from the faith.The newly-emerged "Candlelight Society" has developed and grown in a very short period of time, and has begun to compete with the old Sun God Sect.

Even in the holy city, believers of the "flower whisperer" appeared.

……

Cities dotted with flowers floated before Bai Yi's eyes. He saw Samuel, who had been haunting the dens of cults, and the believers of the cult who had been fooled by him. ”The church prayed devoutly.

He incited them with a fanatical tone: "The omnipotent sun god is just a false god made up by the Sun Temple! It's better to disperse the darkness with a mere candle!"

"My lord is the devourer of misfortune and despair, the god of light who illuminates the unfortunate with fire in the darkness..."

"He selflessly gives hope to everyone..."

·

Countless pictures floated in front of my eyes, and then dissipated.

When Bai Yi's mind fell from the infinite height again, he was still immersed in the picture he saw before, and it was difficult to regain his consciousness for a long time.

Is this the highest realm of the evil god?

There is no need to spread beliefs, and sects are consciously arranged.The pope has it, the believers have it, and even the name of the sect.

Bai Yi was shocked.

However, that is not the point now.

He stretched out his hand, and the invisible object slowly fell from midair.

[The task has been completed, and the reward draw is in progress. 】

[You have obtained the Fragment of All Things x1. 】

"Sure enough." Bai Yi showed an unexpected expression, "Then, the next thing to do is very simple..."

"The system, using this piece of Theory of Everything, continues to distort the laws of physics in the real world."

He resolutely used the reward that hadn't been warmed up yet.

"But this time I want to specify the twist direction..."

Having understood the secret meaning of one's own origin and the principle of all things, one knows that it is entirely feasible to do so.In other words, this is the correct way to use the Fragment of the Principle of Everything.

In the depths of the nightmare, following Bai Yi's thought, a dim star fragment emerged from the deep sea, emitting a faint light.

Music, poetry, painting, novels, the figures of countless handed down works flow in the fragments of stars, and the principles of all things manifest.

"—it is He."

"——I want to awaken the principle of everything in another world. Add a new Tao to the physical laws of the real world."
