Chapter 846: The shining route of the sun.

Fanna stood on the highest tower of the Storm Cathedral. Through the open window, she looked across the roof of the church and looked at the lights twinkling deep in the clouds and mist. The urban buildings are no longer the same as in my memory, as well as the distant sea direction.

The steam-powered pipes next to the spiral staircase in the tower squeaked slightly, and the copper incense burner hung on the pipe valves, emitting wisps of smoke. The old Archbishop Valentine stood aside quietly, dying because his blood stopped flowing. Her pale and turbid eyes looked into the distance with Vanna.

After an unknown amount of time, Fanna broke the silence in a low voice: “I still remember…I used to stand on this tower often. Whenever night fell, I would look at Prand from here. In every corner, the steam pipes were always hissing, and the smell of incense was soothing.

“That seemed to be something not long ago,” Archbishop Valentine said softly.

“Yeah, that seems to have happened not long ago,” Fanna nodded lightly, “The nights at that time were always not peaceful. All kinds of things would come out of the darkness and disturb ordinary people. Human life, and I was confident at that time and felt that I could fight against all enemies that threatened the city-whether they were dark cultists or things summoned by cultists.”

The old archbishop said nothing more, but lowered his eyes slightly. , looking in the direction of the church garden, in the foggy night, there were waves of vague roars and creepy chewing sounds coming from that direction, as if there was some kind of giant creature trapped in the depths of the fog.

“Sister Tyene has started eating again,” Valentine said slowly. “At this time every day, she will devour herself. After twenty-four hours, she will regenerate from the soil. There are still twelve nuns in the garden. With the twelve priests, they lingered near Aunt Tyene and entered the small cloister next to the garden at a specific time – the place you passed by on your daily walk.”

Vanna sighed imperceptibly and whispered. Asked: “Will they run outside the church?”

“I have ordered the garden to be sealed, but it is okay not to seal it,” Valentine said, “Sister Tyene never leaves the garden, when she is ‘alive’ The same is true, and those nuns and priests are not dangerous – the city is full of shadows that are more dangerous than them.

“My sword is useless. “Fanna sighed.

“If there are prowlers trying to break through the high walls of various shelters, then we still need your force.” Valentin shook his head, “There will be chaos of all sizes in the city at any time. Sometimes people suddenly ‘awoke’ at home, and sometimes it was blind prowlers who broke through the security zone. We arranged a new “night watch force” to patrol and guard throughout the city, but there are always things we cannot take into account. At that time, if you are willing, I think they will very much welcome you as the ‘Judge’ to come back and continue to lead them.”

The old bishop suddenly paused at this and added: “Of course, you may need to get used to your old friends again. Men, some of the Night Watchmen have undergone… ‘changes’, which make them look less like humans. But in this world today, having reason and humanity is already a precious thing.

“I won’t care,” Fanna laughed and moved her arms slightly, “It’s still higher than the number of people on the Lost Home, isn’t it? I’m happy to go back

.

In this familiar job – you can help me arrange it. “

“That’s good,” Valentine also laughed, and the old man nodded, “I will summon the Night Watch troops when the next shift changes and tell them. To deliver this good news, do you want to go back to your room to rest for a while? It’s in good condition, and it’s been cleaned.”

“Okay,” Fanna said casually, but then she seemed to think of something, not quite. I asked with confidence, “Is there anything I need to pay attention to?”

“Ignore your murmurings about the dressing table. It’s not a very rational voice. Don’t stare at the window for too long. It’s easy to grow eyes. , Nothing else. “

… Frankly speaking, the situation is quite… ‘mild'”

Valentin shrugged helplessly, and at this moment, he didn’t know why. A glow emerged from the place, suddenly interrupting what he wanted to continue.

The two of them raised their heads in astonishment at the same time, looking for the source of the glow.

There is a cold and pale light in the clouds, which is the light shed from the creation of the world – due to the lowering of the height of the clouds, the “scar” that spans the entire sky is now completely located on the back of the clouds, making it difficult to see clearly from the surface. , only in the gap where the clouds are the brightest and the thinnest in the creation of the world,

can you occasionally see part of the structure of the crack.

But now, they saw a strange light appearing between the gaps in the clouds.

It was not a cold and pale glow, but a faint orange glow. It was mixed with the original light of the creation of the world, and for a moment it even reminded people of the long-lost…sunshine.

Fanna was a little stunned. She looked up to look for the direction of the Creation of the World, and finally saw the huge “scar” through a crack in the low-hanging clouds. And the strange orange light that was reminiscent of the sun actually It was shockingly escaping from the edge of the Creation of the World.

It looked like… there was a strong light source erupting “behind” the Creation of the World. The light source was blocked by the cracks in the sky, so there was only a very small amount of light. The young man’s residual light escaped from the edge of the crack and filled the sky dimly.

Valentine also had the same association in an instant. The old bishop looked at the sky with a look of astonishment on his face: “What is that thing?” .. ….

Vanna did not answer the old man, and at the next moment, the orange light that diffused from behind the creation of the world gradually dimmed until it was completely extinguished.

After a while, the orange light lit up again, filling the sky.

The invisible powerful light source flickered on and off, like a pilot light in the night.

The whole world can see this scene

and even all dimensions can see this scene.

At the end of the world, at the “border node” where the gods sleep, the dim and false sunshine once dispersed the mist, illuminating the palace of Queen Leviathan, the server matrix of Pilot 2, and the Lord of Fire. The island of ashes, and the tomb of death.

In the deepest part of the deep sea, the uncontrollable proliferation of Pilot One slowly squirmed at the bottom of the deep sea. The huge group of nanomachines almost filled every inch of space under the broken land. Between the countless out-of-control tentacles, the dim sunlight suddenly The darkness was dispelled, shining on the dark red core of Pilot One.

In the far northern ice field of the Infinite Sea, ice sculptures stand quietly next to the huge archives building. The fire bearers are frozen on the ice field. The tallest one among them still maintains a

distant attitude towards the south before freezing.

And the dim “sunshine” is shining, even after being blocked and weakened by the creation of the world, it still coats those frozen faces with a layer of shining light, as if it wants to be deeply imprinted in every pair of frozen eyeballs. .

This sunlight is poisonous. For the mortal beings in the boundless sea, bathing in such sunlight is the same as being immersed in the whispers of subspace.

But with the obstruction and weakening of World Creation, its impact on the world has been minimized – even if there is still some “poison”, there is no need to care about the impact.

What’s more, the world itself has been deeply deformed and distorted – in the face of the collapse of all things, the brilliance of the black sun is not much worse than the collapse of the world itself.

Therefore, the exiled sun began to shine for the first time – After such a long exile, after all the children of the sun and the remnants of the sun who had longed for His sunshine but could not find it were lost to history, He finally burned brightly in the apocalypse.

Sunlight filled the transition channel, outlining a bright and clear “light path” in the extremely uniform gray-white background.

Duncan felt a slight shaking under his feet. Alice was fine-tuning the jump process and began to re-correct the course along the navigation signal released by the black sun.

Duncan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the light at the end of the passage – without the obstruction of the creation of the world, the sunlight came across time and space, and it even looked a bit dazzling.

“I will light a lighthouse for you. In the night sky, you have to sail in the brightest direction…”

A civilization that created a Dyson sphere may not have developed technology like “New Hope” yet. height, but they apparently already know how to make their own sound in the universe, at least able to create a signal strong enough to guide starships.

“I saw the light. We are sailing in your direction. This should shorten the jump voyage of the Lost Home,” Duncan said to the sunlight. He knew that the Black Sun could hear his own voice through this method, ” How are you doing now?”

“The burning process, I feel like I’m boiling in the flames – it’s painful, but it’s good,” Black Sun’s voice trembled in the sunlight, “This is my first time in ten thousand years Really burning for the first time, I thought I would be completely unbearable, but… it’s good. “

In the new world, you can live in harmony with your own sunshine without being burned by yourself. “

“The pain,” Duncan said with a smile on his face, “There is a rule that allows such a thing to happen.”

“…can such a thing be done?”

“Yes, this is only a once-in-a-lifetime event. opportunity to create a new world,” Duncan said slowly, “You can even ask for some value-added services – such as changing your sunshine to pink. “

“Ah, that’s not necessary, but if it is possible, I would. I have an extra idea…”

“Oh?”

“Can you arrange a few more planets for me? Gas or rocky ones are fine… It might be useful to observe the evolution of life on different planets. It’s a great relief.”

“Okay, I’ll make a note of it – this wish will come true after Alice’s frying pan.

” “That would be a real honor.
