Soul of Burning Steel

The demiplane within the space-time distortion point—that is, the size of the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrifice Field is beyond the imagination of all the legendary powerhouses who entered the field.

"This place... is at least as big as the northern province."

Flying high into the sky, Nostradamus looked at the end of his field of vision. He looked at the center of the demiplane, the unidentified area directly below the gray sun shrouded in layers of silver mist, with a serious expression on his face: "Just this desert There are nearly 100,000 square kilometers, and there are at least six or more areas on the periphery that are equivalent to it, and there are many unknown areas in the inner layer... Has the civilization of the Era of Glory actually been able to create such a huge demiplane? "

"..."

"Joshua?"

"……I am listening."

Joshua, who was also in mid-air, only responded after being called out by the old mage, looked very ugly, because the sense of calling he sensed was really getting stronger and stronger.

If it was just a vague feeling before, then now it is like a knife is placed in front of the soldier's forehead, making him feel that someone is going to attack him, making his body subconsciously want to fight back, and Joshua must restrain this impulse , Force yourself to calm down and communicate with other people.

"You're a little absent-minded." Nostradamus turned his head in doubt, and said bluntly, "What's going on? Does the abyssal atmosphere here make you uncomfortable?" Having said this, the old mage shook his head mockingly. As far as he knows, the guy in front of him almost killed an abyss lord in the abyss half a year ago-this kind of person is impossible to think about because of the uncomfortable breath of the abyss.

"It's nothing, probably... it's indeed an environmental problem."

Joshua took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the impulse in his body. He also looked towards the distance at the end of his field of vision, with the gray sun rays in the center of the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrificial Field reflected in his pupils, and calmly replied: "If only the brilliance alone In terms of the civilizations of the various ethnic groups in the Era, they have the strength to create such a large demiplane, but they must pay a huge price, and the material lost from the Mycroft Continent will definitely make Mother Earth angry. In fact , The Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrifice Ground was constructed by the joint efforts of gods of various races and took hundreds of years to pull the world fragments in the void, so it is not surprising that it is so big, or rather, it should have shrunk a lot during these thousand years of wandering."

——Using an affirmative sentence.

After listening to the warrior's answer, Nostradamus nodded thoughtfully. Of course, he noticed Joshua's strange behavior after entering this demiplane, and he also noticed his behavior when he passed through various regions along the way.

Whether crossing the desert of death or passing through the silent hills, Joshua's performance was very calm, without the slightest expression of curiosity or surprise, and this calmness was not because he didn't care or the city was extremely deep, but a kind of familiarity. The indifference afterward, in other words, Joshua was as familiar with this demiplane as if no one had entered it for a thousand years, as if it was his own home.

And afterwards, regarding his own question, Joshua took it for granted and said a lot of information that could be taken as fact by default, but he thought it was normal.

But that's not common, Joshua, you shouldn't know so much.

Nostradamus kept this thought in his heart, and he and the warrior descended back to the ground. After several years of getting along, the old mage has become very familiar with Joshua. He does not need to be notified in advance when he enters and exits the Moldavian lord's mansion. Both the guard at the gate and No. 3 will let him go automatically, and the soldiers are not surprised. Strange, but it is precisely because of getting more and more familiar that Nostradamus has doubts in his heart.

It was because of the Kuroshio tide that he noticed the sudden rise of the young earl back then. At that time, Nostradamus's observation focus was still on Brandon. He noticed Joshua's potential, but it was only It is potential. Even in his dreams, the old mage would never have imagined that just a few years later, the young man who had just entered gold and just inherited the title would have become a legendary powerhouse like him—even more advanced than him. !

It is precisely because of this strong contrast that Nostradamus was curious. The curiosity of mages is terrifying, they will analyze the details of everything bit by bit, just to get the answer they want. For this reason, Nostradamus meditated for several days in his secret room, filtering all the information he knew about Joshua, and even every word and deed of the other party in his mind, so, Then he made an astonishing discovery.

Joshua van Radcliffe. This man can predict the future.

In fact, the word predicting the future is actually a bit biased, because some things he knows are impossible to know even if he can predict the future, but other than that, there are no good adjectives to describe them.

Whether it is the black tide, the disaster of the mad dragon, the heretics, the great plague or a series of major events on the Mycroft continent, Joshua can always predict the future and make corresponding preparations in advance. Destroyed his own herd, and then sent troops to save the Moldovan lord, who was supposed to die without a doubt, that is, Earl Verdani. He even killed all the white dragons in his territory half a year earlier in the disaster of the mad dragon, and developed the mad dragon. Dragon disease vaccine——Nostradamus felt that he didn't have any doubts at the time, probably because he was too tired and his brain was damaged. He should have noticed this long ago.

Not to mention dealing with cultists and plagues, Earl Radcliffe is always one step ahead of others and handles everything perfectly. This perfection is even reflected in the other world. A great cause that could not be achieved—retrieve the fourth relic and rekindle the fire! This is not something that can be fooled by using the inheritance of sages as an excuse! There are many things that clearly prove that Joshua knows something that he shouldn't know, and the most frightening thing is that he never hides this.

Just like just now, he said the name of this demiplane in an unremarkable manner, 'Wanjie Sacrifice Ground'.

Nostradamus can swear that he has studied ancient civilizations for more than ten years, and none of the books in the Age of Glory mentioned this name, and even this demiplane itself seems to be something that does not exist. But Joshua was very familiar with this place, and even knew its name... This strong sense of dissonance made the old mage feel a stomachache.

——Is he exposing this information so unpreparedly to test me?

Aside from the stomachache, Nostradamus originally had some doubts about whether Joshua did it on purpose, but after thinking about it rationally, he put his doubts behind him—if this man is scheming, then he will It's not Joshua anymore, he should just say what he wants, and he doesn't care whether he is exposed or not.

"Yes, you do have a clear conscience."

Nostradamus suddenly said such a sentence to himself, and Joshua also turned his head with some doubts, and glanced at the old mage, but because of the strong induction, he didn't continue to pay attention. Noticing the warrior's reaction, Nostradamus sighed deeply.

Forget it, even if Joshua can predict the future, so what? What he has been doing all along is to help more people out of suffering, and to bring this dying world back to life. In fact, he doesn't care whether he is the reincarnation of an ancient god, or some gifted prophecy At home, the old mage was simply curious, and looked forward to the day when the warrior could tell him the truth.

At this time, Joshua did not notice the entangled thoughts of the legendary mage beside him, but stretched out his hand to his forehead and closed his eyes. In fact, even if he knew it, he would not take it seriously, and even simply told the other party the fact that he was actually a time traveler—as Nostradamus said, he had a clear conscience, and no one would accept it because of this kind of inability to prove it. A trivial matter of authenticity to offend a powerful legend, after all, even the Seven Gods don't care.

But now is not the time to talk about that. The current warrior didn't even realize that Hotaru and Rin had stepped forward to support his back with worried faces, and didn't notice that the old mage and the light ball turned their heads towards him in surprise. After reading out the information about the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrificial Field, he felt a violent trance attacking his brain. If he hadn't been able to notice where the abnormality came from before, then now he knows—the abnormality is happening. It came from the dim gray sun hanging high above the demiplane!

It has been dim for thousands of years, as if it was about to go out. Even the gray sun, which had no sign of reappearing light in the previous life, seemed to be activated by something at this time, and began to release a powerful silver-white light bit by bit. , and neither Nostradamus nor the other legendary powerhouses who were exploring the plane paid attention, because for them who did not understand the Sacrificial Field of the Ten Thousand Realms, this was just a normal alternation of day and night, and they even thought that the gray When the sun is dimmed, it is the night set by this artificial demiplane.

...

【I can hear the lamentation among the stars, Cynthia, Morning Star, my disciple, can you hear it too? They are crying, because the world, civilization, living beings, order, everything is destroyed under the attack of chaos... I can't bear it anymore. 】

【Then teacher, what should we do? The multiverse is too vast, and even you cannot save everything. 】

[At least, I want to help those I can hear... I already have a plan. 】

...

Accompanied by a strong trance, Joshua felt a word shrouded in haze flashing through his mind, and he could vaguely see that it was a beautiful elf woman with a sad face respectfully facing a white figure Kneeling on one knee, she raised her head sadly, and her face overlapped with that of the Saint of Stars in Grandia's world.

"This is... Cynthia Chenxing, the sage of the stars? Is that person a sage?"

Even in a fleeting moment, Joshua could clearly distinguish who the owner of these words was, but he didn't understand why this happened. As the gray sun in the distance above his head became brighter and brighter, that kind of The sense of trance became heavier and heavier, and the room for the soldiers to think became smaller and smaller, and Joshua also discovered the purpose of this power that invaded his spiritual will—it simply wanted to pull his spirit into Its spiritual world is just like the spiritual world where the Azure Orb pulled the warrior's will into the memory fragments of the sages.

However, the current Joshua is very different from before, and the master of the unknown will is also very different from the sage, not to mention that Joshua can detect that the soul of the other party has been deeply injured and has not yet fully recovered. Healed, so the wills of the two sides had an extremely strong confrontation, and even some information began to be exchanged under the fierce conflict, just like the memories he saw about the saints.

"Don't make me go to your place!"

Aware of the opponent's purpose, how could Joshua let the opponent dominate? The sage is nothing more than a sage, but he can run rampant in the multiverse and kill multiple evil gods. The warrior is willing to admit that he is far inferior to the opponent, but even so, Joshua also believes that one day he will surpass the sage in the future. Not to mention other people.

This inexplicable thing that has never appeared in the previous life wants to pull his will away so easily? ridiculous!

"Come here!"

Gritting his teeth and roaring, Joshua spit out such a sentence through his teeth under the concerned eyes of the Shenji siblings, the light ball and the old mage. The moment the will to engage in a long-distance soul tug-of-war with him was pulled from the other side, the gray sun that was gradually brightening in the sky immediately lost its brilliance, and regained its previous dim appearance. At the same time, a huge and affected The will to be severely injured was dragged into Joshua's mental space in a daze like this.

And Joshua was completely caught in the huge information flow brought by the other party.

...

【My power comes from the will of the Ten Thousand Realms. Now is the time for me to give back to the Ten Thousand Realms. You don’t have to persuade me. This is my future path. 】

【No, teacher, Christina and I do not intend to stop you, but just think that this great goal does not need to be undertaken by you alone... We and the gods are willing to go forward with you! 】

...

In front of the temple burning with holy flames, a slightly tired and strong man and a mysterious woman with black hair and fair skin who covered her face with a veil bowed respectfully to the gate of the temple. The materialized holy light ripples, they talked with the majestic voice from the temple, as if they wanted to convince that respected existence.

Joshua, who hadn't recovered from his senses, looked at this scene in a daze. He already knew that he had won the spiritual war, but it was obvious that he had not won a complete victory, as evidenced by the scattered information flow. Looking at these passing fragments, the soldier suddenly understood something,

"these are……"

There was a trance.

...

【Let us cheer for the light of wisdom of the races and gods! This great creation is worthy of our eternal praise! Teacher, look, the stars are in our palms from now on! 】

【Very good... Hells, you really are the disciple who understands me best, just tell me, besides helping, do you still want to rely on it to conquer other worlds? 】

[...Naturally, teacher, I dare not lie to you, but if you don’t use force to defend, how can chaos be driven out, and how can truth and justice come? 】

...

Under the silver-white sun, the gray-haired tall man excitedly introduced to his teacher the crystallization of wisdom created by uniting the gods of all races, the supreme creation of the Mycroft civilization, and his teacher seemed a little surprised, But he saw through his disciple's real thoughts at a glance. Regarding this, the tall and strong man, whose whole body seemed to be carved from the most perfect marble, stated his desire without any concealment.

Joshua silently watched the scenes. At this time, he had recovered from the trance, and had begun to consciously collect the overflowing information, but the more he watched, the more certain he was in his guess.

"Not so far."

The spirit sank into the flow of information, and the trance struck again, but this time, what appeared were huge and illogical chaotic fragments. All memories had no logic at all, as if they were crushed and destroyed by some huge force. The memory is gone, and the owner of the memory can't repair them, he can only let it look like it is today.

After a long time, the next scene appeared briefly.

...

【You actually want my daughter to merge with that filthy and chaotic existence? I will never allow it, never agree! 】

[This is the only way to save you and your daughter, I'm sorry, but I can only do this. 】

【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! I curse you! Curse you! Humans, elves, dwarves, all... living in... I curse...]

...

Under the dome of the star sea, the sound of steel rubbing turned into a rumbling roar. Joshua couldn't see any clear scene, but he could hear a tired and helpless voice talking with a raging deep voice. Obviously, the two sides did not reach an agreement. Under the fluctuation of an incomparably huge and vast force even after thousands of years, the furious voice suddenly became low and weak, and finally disappeared.

"Not enough, next one."

The voice of the warrior sounded, and light and shadow intertwined.

...

【Teacher, will the Mycroft world be destroyed? 】

【If you mean that the traces of existence have completely disappeared, of course not. But if you are talking about the continuation of the world itself, you can only look at the struggles of people in later generations, which is already a distant future that has nothing to do with you and me. 】

[Could it be... Teacher, can't you stay? 】

【This accident made me realize many truths that I hadn't noticed before... That's something that I can't solve even if I stay in Mycroft for 10,000 years. So, the rest of the world will be handed over to you. 】

...

"This is the conversation between the sage and his disciples, and it is also the memory of the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrifice. It is the source and end of the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrifice."

The last scene also disappeared from his eyes. Joshua sighed deeply in his own spiritual world. He turned his head and looked at the darkness on one side: "Isn't it?"

"Infallible. Inheritor. What you say is the truth."

In the dark spiritual space, a little silver light suddenly appeared, and the next moment, the silver light exploded, brightening the entire darkness, and a huge silver-gray light ball appeared beside Joshua. Said in a mechanically rigid tone: "The existence information has been confirmed. Inheritance number three, the holder of the 'Azure Radiance'. Please go to the central sacrificial field, the multi-quadrant transmission is ready."

"Please get ready to save the world."
