Defying the Fate of Beheading
Chapter 919 - 468: Breaking into the Supreme Forest, the Elf Grand Speaker’s Compromise
In history, there have been instances where paradox devices were lost.
Some paradox devices even caused tremendous impact, and they expended great effort to successfully recover them.
But they are ultimately not the River of Time Cronus.
They can’t ensure the recovery of every device, waiting for the device to naturally perish.
There are always some devices that end up outside, even being utilized by others.
However, theoretically speaking, if it were such an extremely impactful paradox device, the O5 council should have been able to sense it.
Ordinary devices, even if they create an impact, it is limited.
Affecting tens of thousands is already considered significant.
It can be said they never cast a suspicious eye towards the elves.
First, for them, the era of active elves is too distant from their own.
Secondly, the matter has been settled, no sense of a strong paradox device = even if elves have paradox devices, they wouldn’t be too powerful = the impact caused by elves wouldn’t be too great.
But now, a terrifying thought suddenly flashed through the minds of the members of the O5 council.
Could it be that it wasn’t that no impact was made, but rather that the impact was too great for them to observe?
It must be noted, until today, many people still wonder, in what manner did the Elf Realm rise so quickly, crushing the retaliations from various forces.
To speak bluntly, how many major nations in the Underground City haven’t experienced this?
If their opponents were truly that formidable, they wouldn’t have been devoured by the will of the stars, left for the continent’s various factions to handle.
In other words, at least at the very beginning, the forces of the Underground City and the continent’s various factions were not on the same level.
Mr. One said gravely:
"There is now a problem, in the dungeons that have appeared so far, there have been only two instances of loss of control.
One of them is the Elf Realm of those years, which directly tore through the defenses of the Underground City, entering the Star Continent.
The other is today’s Helmer, who received massive support from the Four Gods of the Abyss, setting a trap for the Heroic Corps of those years, buying precious time to develop into the Divine Realm.
If, hypothetically speaking, if the handling method of the Star Continent towards the Underground City was not flawed, then did the elves of those years, breaking out from the Underground City ahead of time, also receive some form of powerful external interference and influence?"
Lady Four hesitated for a moment, saying: "If so, then few existences could interfere with such matters, and even fewer could aid the elves in using the paradox devices and remain hidden."
The two exchanged a glance, simultaneously thinking of one entity.
"It is the Supreme Eagle!" *2
Among the Four Gods of the Abyss, the Supreme Eagle Jianqi has the title of Master of Magic.
In terms of sheer magical means, he is the most terrifying among the four gods.
There have even been rumors that he wants to pull the Goddess of Magic down from the magic web to become the actual God of Magic himself.
If there’s anyone in this world who wishes to see the Star Continent in chaos, to extract benefits from it, the Evil God would certainly be the prime suspect.
And to shield the O5’s ability to sense the paradox devices through generations, one must possess technology beyond ordinary understanding.
Unfathomable technology acts like a black barrier, naturally blocking much of the information that the O5 council instinctively possesses.
Among those capable and who particularly enjoy doing this is the Supreme Eagle Jianqi.
Mr. One said coldly:
"Let’s wait for the news from His Majesty Louis. If the situation is as we imagine, I have to send Mr. Two to the Akasha Records."
The Akasha Records, also known as the Book of Life.
It is not a physical book but a concept.
[A conceptual ocean recording the subconscious of all living beings on the Star Continent]
If human will is called Araiyer.
Then the will of all races is referred to as the Akasha Records.
But the Akasha Records stand at the pinnacle of the information domain.
Its existence, like the River of Time Cronus, is unseen, unperceivable, yet actually exists and influences the world.
Even for Time Guardians like them, browsing the core contents of the Akasha Records demands a severe price.
Among current O5 members, only Mr. Two has the ability to read it.
But after reading, he would be assimilated by the Akasha Records, becoming a part of the subconscious ocean.
To Mr. One, this is tantamount to killing a long-time partner.
Even if Mr. Two is revived through mechanical theurgy, he will, in the end, not be the person in One’s memory.
But he heaved a long sigh and said:
"I’ve already contacted Mr. Two. When Lord Louis returns to the Am Empire, he will initiate the ritual to invade the Akasha Records."
"And if our speculations are confirmed?"
"If that’s truly the case, I’m afraid we’ll need to discuss it with Lord Louis."
"Discuss what?"
"Sending the elves to the main battlefield to patch up the gaps they themselves created."
Simply put, have the elves dedicate maximum effort to getting involved in the war.
Until the problems they created are resolved.
Because if the elves’ rise those years was truly through the use of paradox devices, then the time river disturbances they caused must have rippled through ages, from the past chaos to the present.
Because...
They could very well have directly destroyed the entity that was supposed to be the sovereign of an era, usurping someone else’s power.
And from the timeline perspective, that true era sovereign may have been the fairies.
Experts in magic.
Born loved by nature.
With mastery over powerful magic bow techniques.
