Chapter 1486: Strange Space
"Thank you for your help." The tiny granulations that had just appeared on both sides of Gallup III's cheeks disappeared immediately. He looked deeply at the black sun in the sky and bowed slightly.
For an angel king like him who is only one step away from becoming a god, he has long been accustomed to this level of pollution, but it is unlikely to get rid of it in a short period of time.
Wielding both destiny and knowledge, this newly ascended deity's power is truly unfathomable. Gallup III sighed inwardly, followed Zhou Ning, and tentatively asked:
"Is it possible that we will encounter that powerful being next?"
For a being of such high status as the Sun Goddess, there is a high probability of being directly connected to Her even if Her name is called out. It is natural that Gallup III would not make such a mistake.
"Yes." Zhou Ning nodded silently, then made a wish for the sky to light up, and snapped his fingers to make the wish come true.
The sky, originally dark and shrouded in a thick gray mist, suddenly became brighter, like a piece of white cloth. The nine evil black suns in the sky looked more like nine black mold spots.
At the same time, the originally blurred vision suddenly became clear.
"Fuck, is this okay?"
"Coach, I want to learn this!"
The players were stunned by this magical scene, their hearts filled with a sense of security. They followed Zhou Ning closely, feeling the relief of having someone to rely on during critical moments.
It turned out that this area was filled with a large area of densely packed time traps. These were terrifying traps set by the Earth Goddess using her power over time. Originally, it would have taken Zhou Ning a lot of time to deal with them, but after the players' carpet-style mine clearance, they had basically all been cleared.
Similar to what players have seen before, there are irregular balls of black lines everywhere, forming simple, abstract, crisscrossing deep corridors.
In the field of time, these black balls of thread are called timelines.
Soon, Zhou Ning stepped onto those corridors and saw a large number of shadowy figures, some walking along them, some frozen in place, some deep and some shallow. There were so many of them that it would make one develop claustrophobia.
Most of them were dressed in strange, misshapen clothing, apparently players who had just entered this space. Zhou Ning scanned the area with his eyes and finally spotted the figures of the Sun Goddess and the Goddess of Life.
They were not one person, but a group, wearing their signature attire, walking forward without looking at Zhou Ning. Zhou Ning did not meet their gazes either, passing them directly without even glancing at them.
Any connection with them on the timeline may lead to being sensed, or even being descended upon by gods or besieged.
"Wait..." Zhou Ning's pupils shrank slightly, and he almost had the urge to turn around and leave.
Among them, Zhou Ning also saw a blue-gray figure wrapped in a white robe walking unsteadily, and then suddenly appeared beside him. It was the God of Creation!
Of course, this creator god is not his real body. It only means that he has been here before. These are the shadows left by people who have stayed on this timeline. Only those who have the authority of time can see these figures through the timeline.
However, there was one thing that puzzled Zhou Ning. All signs indicated that the God of War had been here before, and might even have disappeared here. But Zhou Ning looked for a long time among the figures on these timelines, but did not see the God of War.
In the taskbar, the S-level task [Request from the Church of the God of War] lay there quietly, without any response, except that the progress bar moved forward a little.
Note: S-level mission [Request from the Church of the God of War]
Mission Summary: After visiting the Church of the God of War, you learned a shocking secret: the God of War has truly lost contact, his last known trace leading to Fort Bordan, the capital of the Byron Republic. Pope Gallop III of the Church of the God of War has reached out to you for help. Your spiritual perception suggests this place harbors many secrets and unpredictable dangers. Should you accept their request and explore Fort Bordan, or should you respect your own perception and wait and see?
[Tip: This mission is extremely difficult, please be sure to organize a team to explore.]
[Tip: This task is a series of tasks. You can complete the following requirements in this task]
[Go to Fort Bordan and search for traces left by the God of War.]
[Current mission reward: 4650 million experience points, item reward*1.]
Since the progress bar is moving, the God of War must have been here. Could he have entered here from another entrance?
"Sir, have you discovered anything?" Gallup III had raised a large shield at some point, and asked Zhou Ning beside him while walking and looking sideways.
He did not see the densely packed figures, but only saw Zhou Ning walking and stopping, as if he was afraid, so he asked.
Zhou Ning thought about it and raised his doubts:
"You should know that this space is made up of different timelines. Anyone who has come to this space will leave a trace on the timeline."
"I saw traces of other gods near the entrance, but I didn't sense the God of War. Was he really last seen in Fort Bordan?"
"It's highly likely, but I'm not sure. Before we lost contact, the great God of War seemed to be walking among the people in a divine vessel. Afterwards, an abnormally strong divine fluctuation appeared in Fort Bordan, manifesting seven miracles related to war, causing the scale of the war to escalate prematurely." Gallup III replied.
"Which seven miracles of war?" Zhou Ning asked casually.
"They are: the image of the god of war outlined by the light of a lamp without oil; the tide of crows that triggered the war; the stigmata that formed the word 'war'; the battle flag wrapped in flames; the prophecy in the desert; the moonlight reflected off the bronze shield; and the same dream shared by everyone in forty-seven different regions."
"It's certainly logical... but the God of War doesn't necessarily enter here from Fort Bordan. Furthermore, according to Gallup III, the God of War gave up some of his authority over order and justice, instead controlling time and dreams. To this end, he even killed the Dream Dragon Hodgson, a powerful creature bred from the divine dream. He loosened his control over the authority he held, thereby choosing to seize two new authorities. Considering that everyone shared the same dream, the God of War's actions clearly defy common sense."
Zhou Ning nodded, and at the same time, he realized something and confirmed one thing.
That is, the disappearance of the God of War should not be that simple. It is most likely related to his new control over time and dream authority. No god is a simple character. Even if an old-fashioned righteous god like the God of War is backstabbed, he must have a backup plan.
Zhou Ning walked forward, lost in thought. The players followed behind, listening intently to the conversation between Zhou Ning and Gallup III, fearing they would miss even the slightest clue.
They smelled a strong scent of the main mission!
But what made them uncomfortable was that the two of them didn't speak again, and the whole team fell into silence again.
Everyone walked along this timeline. In the process, they occasionally triggered a few scattered time traps along the way and stepped on a few shadows. But before Zhou Ning could take action, several angel kings of the Church of the God of War each cast their own laws to kill the divine shadows.
To a certain extent, once the Angel King of the Church of the God of War, who controls the code, reaches a certain size, he will be able to pose a threat to God.
At this time, Zhou Ning was standing in a place where several timelines crisscrossed and stopped. The nine black suns in the sky became brighter at this time, shining down from the sky, bringing evil and sacredness.
This is obviously a place that the players have never explored. At this time, there is no shadow of any player left on the timeline. Instead, there is an old wizard with a staff and a giant with a curly beard.
This is Guarani, the god of knowledge and wisdom, and one of his incarnations, Edgeworth, the god of craftsmen and alchemy!
They gathered here with the shadows of the Sun Goddess and the Goddess of Life, and then embarked on different timelines.
