MTL - To Four Thousand Years Later-v6 Chapter 49 from kingdom to crown

The giant cannon had lost all its power. In other words, it has transferred all its power to Zheng Fu. Zheng Fu's soul is filled with the will of the end of countless civilizations, and they engulf each other. Conquer each other. A huge amount of psionic energy poured out of his soul continuously, his will was torn into countless parts but he remained awake at the same time. Finally, he closed his eyes wearily. I don't know how long it has passed, it may be a moment, or it may be a long time. He suddenly noticed that his consciousness seemed to be falling downwards.

It seems that it is not an illusion. The moment he realized this, Zheng Fu's consciousness suddenly woke up. He opened his eyes again, only to find himself in a strange nothingness. This is a sea of ​​souls that is as dark as a ghost, without light or sound. There is colorless spiritual energy everywhere. But it is not cold. Just like the reflection of the will and the mirror image of the soul of all the people in the world, every part of it is so warm. Zheng Fu can clearly feel what kind of reverence and love it has for him.

Just like how humans love him. It's like a miniaturized mountain. There is nothing here, nothing, not even time. Everything is nothingness, where everything comes to a standstill. Even corruption and death are also absent. Zheng Fu felt himself floating in this sea of ​​mind, slowly sinking downward. His messy wills were gradually sorted out, and more and more wills recognized his existence as he sank deeper, and Zheng Fu's body began to gradually shine with brilliance. But after Zheng Fu woke up, he quickly noticed that in a certain direction in the deepest part, there was another shining thing.

He no longer hesitated, and directly dived with all his strength. Every time he went down, the light on him grew brighter. But as he dived deeper and deeper, he also noticed that the light that really lay on the bottom of the sea was not inferior to his own. Until he saw the source of that light. Zheng Fu's movements stopped suddenly. In the deepest layer of the sea of ​​mind, there is a dilapidated stone slab lying quietly. It was the slate that he asked Bai Meng to write down. Tablets on which his prophecies are recorded. Just like when it was just dug up.

Yes, of course he knew the slate. Zheng Fu stretched out his hand slowly. But he couldn't touch the slate. When his fingers touched it, there were faint white ripples, and a brighter and more dazzling light bloomed.

It really shouldn't be here either. It is impossible for any substance to exist in the sea of ​​human minds. Unless, it just exists here as a piece of information.

"We will be in four thousand years." Zheng Fu read the language on the slate softly, with a gentle and peaceful tone. Even Zheng Fu himself. They were all surprised that they were able to speak. But he didn't hesitate, just continued to read, with the nostalgia and forced memories of the past: "I don't know, will the world be peaceful in the future?"

"Have famine and plague been eradicated?"

"Can you touch the stars?"

"What is the human lifespan?"

"How far is the border of the empire?"

"Do humans remember us?"

The words that Zheng Fu had read began to shine with brilliance, and the whole stone slab gradually burst into more radiant light. But the rest of the words were clearly branded in Zheng Fu's eyes.

Yet even without that, he could remember verbatim what he had said.

Touching the slate with his fingers, he read in a low voice:

"Someone here once looked at the starry sky like a dream."

"People here have died of hunger and thirst."

"There used to be countries that fought against each other, bleeding their own kind with swords."

"There once was a plague that flowed on the earth, and there was darkness under the sun."

"The sun once set here, and the moonlight was as warm as water."

"There used to be life, old age, sickness, and death here, and everything decays due to time, and everything flows like a dream."

"Here was a fool who lived as if he would never die; but died as if he had never lived."

"He lives and suffers. But fortunately, he has suffered. You don't need to suffer anymore."

"May the world be peaceful. May there be no hunger. May others love you."

"May you cherish the time. May you remember the past."

When Zheng Fu read this, he paused slightly.

He was silent for a long time before he spoke softly, his voice was full of tenderness and sincerity: "May you be happy forever."

He already remembered it all. What I thought when I said those words.

There was already a silence in his heart. All the "tombstones" were pleased with this, and gave Zheng Fu their last will, memory, and spiritual power, and also handed over the history of their civilization. Because of trust, that's all. In the beginning, it was just a coincidence that Zheng Fu would choose this path.

At first he only got a tiny kingdom, but now he is the king of all people.

The only thing that is clear is that Zheng Fu cannot ignore those who trust him. And his trust, sincerity, determination to live for others, his hope, courage and love. It can touch everyone in this world, and it can also touch people in other worlds.

The sea of ​​human subconscious will guide him here at his most urgent moment, precisely because it fully believes in Zheng Fu. It completely believes that if it will fall in love with Zheng Fu for this, then others will too. Zheng Fu slowly opened his eyes.

Those were pure white, quiet eyes.

"One is enough."

He has returned.

Carrying the grave of a thousand worlds. Standing in front of "natural disasters".

When Zheng Fu opened his eyes again, thousands of colors of light converged in his eyes, and were once again dyed into pure white light by his will.

The pure white giant of light stood tall on the top of the moon.

This power is so powerful. But it is actually just a seesaw, a seed. Zheng Fu achieved such an incredible miracle that he made the final will of 100 million civilizations entrusted to him. Taking this as a fulcrum, "The Established Miracle" also pumped out a more powerful force.

King of legends and lord of wonders.

Living in symbiosis with Zheng Fu, absorbing the twilight seeds from countless legends almost greedily, the excitement has reached the limit at this moment.

[The background of the battle is the last world, the end]

[The Most Glorious Legend Victory!]

final answer

Zheng Fu's body shone with an unquenchable brilliance. Such a beautiful and distant radiance.

That light itself is the ode to civilization. The brilliance that bloomed from Zheng Fu's body easily overwhelmed the spiritual energy that burned all of the Queen's body like a raging fire. Push it back out of the light. The surrounding Zergs were also disintegrated and swallowed. Just like the bombardment of "burning the galaxy" that wiped out the stars before.

At this time, Zheng Fu had already understood its principle: it was neither high fever nor extreme cold. It is the millions of civilizations that have stagnated and fallen into the grave, with their minds assimilating matter as other psionics assimilate matter.

That's pure psionic energy. The only psychic power of these 100 million graves is to make the irradiated beings completely stagnate for any time—including matter and psychic energy.

But unlike the psychic energy that exists in the mountains, the material world does not allow the existence of matter that is not affected by time. In other words, matter that is not affected by entropy is not allowed to exist. It is thus thrown out of the world, denying the plausibility of his material existence. It's like a computer after a self-test. Automatically delete some invalid or obsolete data. The aftermath of the light alone dissolved the entire month. However, different from the previous bombardment, this time the light that shined from Zheng Fu's body avoided the surviving fanatics and angels of dawn. Just remove those Zerg from this world. But those Zergs are different from their queens, their psychic powers are not strong enough to exist independently of their physical bodies. Flying in the air, Zheng Fu swallowed all their attacks, including themselves.

Just when Zheng Fu was about to wipe out all the Zerg, he received a telepathic message from the Queen.

[We also fled here. On the other side of the mountain, there exists a twilight that hunts the twilight. A twilight that exists in the form of a civilization. For billions of years, they have been hunting us down. I have already abandoned my essence as Twilight, dismantled my own existence, and degenerated into the material world, but they still did not let us go. But we have lost the ability to resist. ]

[I don't know why you are attacking us. But we're just trying to survive. One day, "they" will find this place too. We must constantly forage. Keeping the energy reserves abundant and multiplying our civilization can restore some resistance before they come here. We just hope to survive one]

[We should not be enemies, as long as you let us go, we can hand over all the knowledge to you! Then you can set a restricted area for us, and I will inject the underlying restriction into the genes of all children. As long as you get close to the restricted area, you will die immediately, how?]

[- You can even come and be our king if you want! We'll eat all your enemies, everyone who lives next to you, and give you the land and the planet! I can even You produce your own Zerg fleet. ] The Queen's attitude softened. Zheng Fu's strength was far beyond her imagination. Most importantly, she didn't know why Zheng Fu suddenly jumped out of the mountain to attack her. But Zheng Fu's answer. It's equally straightforward.

"There is no peace between us."

[We do not intend to treat you as food. ]

"What I bear is not only the civilization I was born in."

His voice was so flat that it was almost gentle. There is no hostility or hatred: "I came to kill you. I didn't want to get any benefits. There is no hatred between us and you, and we don't even have a fixed galaxy."

"But for the future. I must kill you here."

Just like what he used to do. Not fighting for your own unique good. It is for the common future of the world. Such a stupid and naive way of doing things.

But there is only one difference.

That is, anyone who has been helped by him will indeed become his strength; he also does have the confidence and ability to help others. From this point of view, Zheng Fu's helping others is helping himself on a larger scale. This is the way of kings.

Yes, he doesn't just want to be the king of a country, a clan, or a land, or even a continent or a planet. With the power of the twilight species, go to the starry sky. What's wrong with such a vision?

From this point of view, what the Zerg ate was his people after all. Even if he hadn't conquered the opponent yet, he had never understood their civilization, and he had never even seen them. But it's okay.

Humanity will all be greater than you. The queen quickly understood Zheng Fu's firm will. She didn't make any more begging for mercy, but calmly gave up resistance, and uttered the last sentence:

[you will regret it]

"Coincidentally, I have heard such words often before."

Zheng Fu smiled slightly: "But, I won't be the one who regrets every time."

As soon as his words fell, his body suddenly bloomed with brilliance. The surrounding space became clean at a speed visible to the naked eye. Whether it was planets, stars, meteors, or debris floating in the universe, they were all equally purified by this ray of light. There was no burning or explosion, and all the fleets that came to install were completely wiped out by the light of civilization blooming on Zheng Fu.

Although the original plan was to behead. But after the beheading failed, it's okay to kill all the opponents, right? As for the threat that the queen said, although Zheng Fu remembered it in his heart, he didn't pay much attention to it. So what about Twilight who hunts Twilight? Even if she fails, it cannot be said that I, the Dawn Seed, will fail like her. We are different after all. Even if it is the same dusk, there is a gap between them, let alone Zheng Fu. Twilight on a race scale? It sounds interesting. But that's all. Because he believed from the bottom of his heart that the civilization he was in was the most powerful, greatest, and most glorious civilization. They are equal, civilized, peaceful and prosperous. Surpassing death, galloping in the sea of ​​stars. Because the brilliance they enjoy is not bestowed by anyone or any god. Instead, they walked forward step by step, passed on from generation to generation, and built brick by brick. Because this is human beings, this is human civilization.

From the ancient slave era to stepping into the galaxy. They have never really enjoyed the blessings, and everyone who is worthy of admiration is striving for the glory of human civilization. They are not longing for themselves to be born in the beautiful era in the future, but hope that future generations will not have to suffer from the suffering they have suffered. Finally finished. Zheng Fu took a deep breath and felt an unprecedented peace and tranquility.

Mankind is finally free. There is no longer any crisis, any karma to entangle them. Their legendary ship is about to set sail.

World Peace. Never be hungry. People love each other.

People cherish time, remember the past, and always be accompanied by happiness.

"You prepare for the jump. Prepare to return—we're home."

"My lord, what about you?"

"Me?" Zheng Fu smiled lightly: "I'll take a step first. As soon as his voice fell, Gabriel's body instantly disintegrated, turning into smoke and dust.

This body has long been unable to bear his strength. It's just that his re-evolved psychic power can still restrain it, preventing it from collapsing so quickly.

In the end, he kept Gabriel's spirit body. Teleported back to Yastaru. And he himself entered the rebirth sequence on behalf of Gabriel. He still remembered Gabriel's request to him: "The process of rebirth after death is not so painful. It's not cool to drown and struggle in deep black water." Although she didn't die because of it, but Zheng Fu didn't intend to withhold her salary because of this.

"Huh?"

He blinked in surprise. This is the sea of ​​mind that he just sank, the sea of ​​darkness of nothingness and chaos. The spirits of all the dead warriors floated on the water, their faces showing pain. The difference is, they're all just floating on the surface. Did not sink to the bottom of the sea. The shining soul of Zheng Fu walked on the surface of the water, and the faces of all the souls who approached him seemed to become a little more relaxed. Seeing this, Zheng Fu was startled suddenly. Wait? I am walking on the sea of ​​mind? This sea of ​​darkness, chaotic darkness? It seems that a ray of light is splitting in Zheng Fu's heart. He finally moves. I see. He sighed, and all the questions seemed to be released here: what is the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything? Why is his path of ascension from the "kingdom" to the "crown", and what is the brilliance above the crown? ?Why can he become the lord of the twilight? Why is the earth favored by the mountains? Why can he move freely in the environment? Besides himself, what kind of civilization is the dawn species that already existed?

If there is no concept of time in the mountain environment, who comes first between it and the material world? Look at the surrounding environment. A world where all matter does not exist, only spiritual energy exists. A world where time freezes.

There is obviously a long river of time in the mountains. Also a possibility. It was born in the future.

Here it is, the embryo of the mountain.

That great, long-extinct dawn civilization created the forerunner civilization of the five ancient gods. may be

"Heh. Fate?" Zheng Fu suddenly smiled and said: Then let me see if the fate can be broken. "

"What is it that can shatter the dawn." Facing this dark world, he said:

"Let there be light!"

And so there was light.

(season finale)

End of this testimonial

Happy National Day everyone! Happy birthday to the great motherland mother!

Come and wish me a happy ending! (chest out)

From December 1, 2017 to October 1, 2019. Twenty-three months of journey, 1.83 million words. The story belonging to Zheng Fu came to an end today.

Remember what I said before I opened the book?

"It will be a story of hope and love."

My prayers of yesteryear are fulfilled today;

What I praised in the past, I promise you today.

Needless to say, this is hope and love in my eyes.

I love those who have love in their hearts.

I also love those teenagers who have hope, never give up, and burn like fire.

Regular readers know that my writing mode tends to be thematic writing. After "God", "Pope" and "Devil King", as my fourth protagonist... Zheng Fu's personal theme is "Sage".

I hope that the Zheng Fu I can write can be worthy of the word sage.

Okay, I've said all I wanted to say. Let me rest for a few days, the new book will be released from October 8th to 10th. The length of the new book should be very long, so I will write it back to a certain point and send it on the account that wrote Mercury's Blood. Of course, I should still come back in the future... But the next time I go back to Hedgehog Cat, it should be to write the urban essay that I mentioned last time.

The old rules, the theme is roughly mentioned, this time it is a Western fantasy game similar to the style of Mercury's Blood, and the theme is "Madman".

Everyone, I'll see you when the new book arrives. Hope to see you again.

—May you always be happy.
