The Earth Federation's super popular fantasy game, [Continent of Continent] series has been in the top ten of the game's popularity list since the entire galaxy was launched nine years ago and has reached the top several times. With its excellent production, perfect numbers, interlocking plot links and huge worldview, the Continent of Continent has had 180 million registered users, 40 million permanent players and nearly 9 million die-hard players who log in at least four hours every day. Then with the version replacement, some players left and more players joined. This number continued to expand to the point where it was doubled before. At all times, millions of players were exploring adventures in this world full of war.

In the era when Joshua lived, the world was in harmony and material wealth was extremely abundant. Human beings began to colonize space, and almost all low-difficulty physical labor was replaced by intelligent machinery. Most humans had no choice but to work four hours a day, but they could only rely on various entertainment or extracurricular learning to spend their spare time. In this context, industries including games, live broadcasts, music variety shows, religion and novels began to flourish, and [Contact of Disputes] can be said to be the best among them.

In addition to the super-class production, it is extremely meticulous, as if a real world background is also part of its attractiveness. In the game, no plot or important items are isolated. They are related and connected to each other. An unknown iron sword may be the sword of a sword saint hundreds of years ago and can lead to a huge task chain. A seemingly ordinary murder may involve the blasphemy of a cult priest behind it. Players play a role in adventure in this world means continuous surprises. You can choose to travel to the mainland, witness the customs and customs, and become a soldier, and go through battlefield fighting. As long as you want, anyone can find the game method they want.

Generally speaking, this type of game with a huge worldview has hundreds of copywriting and professional designers to perfect the settings, and even this may not be enough. In fact, for most large-scale approximate games, every time the version is replaced and the new world plot unfolds, it means that some of the original settings are overturned, which is commonly known as eating books by players. This kind of thing is common in the industry, and everyone is even used to this because human abilities have limits. It is almost impossible to weave a perfect and self-consistent worldview from beginning to end. Even if it can, it will take a long time of consideration, and it will be completely unworthy of the loss.

But the dispute continent is different. The arrival, glory, dragon disaster, distant border, god descending, embers, and six version replacements not only did not destroy the original setting, but instead expanded the worldview again and again. The transitions in it were like flowing clouds and water without any stagnation, just like it was a real world.

In fact, if it is just this, it cannot be surprising. After all, as long as you are willing to pay for work and time, any first-class company can push quality to this level. But what really shocked the industry and even the entire Federation is that the only one who designed all these plot settings and many vivid characters was that it was just "one person".

one person.

Is this possible? No one dares to believe such a thing. Even no matter how arrogant a person is, he dares to say that he can design and perfect all the worldview and background settings of a game like [Contradiction Continent]. What's more, the gentleman who did not want to be named also arranged corresponding relationships, plots and task chains for tens of thousands of characters and forces. The workload alone must be calculated in t. Even if a person explains his entire life to this, it is impossible to complete it. This is an "impossible task". For this reason, the Federal First News Station even specially created a program to interview the designer who did not want to be named.

Joshua had forgotten a lot about the content of the interview at that time. After all, most of the time was boring saliva. The mysterious designer did not reveal any news about how he was fighting the game on the mainland, but there was only one sentence that he remembered very clearly. It was a conversation that appeared at the beginning of the interview.

"Construction, design? No...How dare I say that, rather than designing the [Continent of Disputes], it is better to say that it is 'it' that poured into my mind-" The mysterious designer who used virtual images to receive interviews in the online world with such a wry smiled and murmured: "Even if it is inspiration, it is too far-fetched. I feel that I am just a simple retelling. Yes, 'retelling' a world, it will naturally run and then come naturally, that's all."

"He probably didn't lie."

More than ten years later, the warrior, who was unknown to his former hometown, closed his eyes in the stargazing fortress in the void, and Joshua's ears still echoed what Isrel said to him a few seconds ago.

The seal of the abyss, the earth under the foot, the star falls, the shelter thousands of years ago - these news that were blocked by the Delmond royal family and many legendary powerful men had actually been captured by the enthusiastic research party players in their previous lives. If it weren't for the invasion of the abyss, they might have found out the truth behind it. No matter what, the two are so similar that it is impossible to suppress their curiosity.

Joshua had long speculated about the truth behind all this. He had been living in the current continent of Mycrov for a long time and could be sure that this place was a real world. For the warrior, it was better to say that the information of the game in his previous life came from the world of Mycrov.

There is a connection between the world. The knowledge from sages in the Sky Blue Pearl tells many secrets about the initial fire, existence and the world. In the multiverse, countless stars are releasing their own "ripples" to the outside world. The endless ripples stir up each other, and a chaotic void turbulence was born, which blocked the connection between most worlds, but also made the connection between some worlds deeper.

Projection, linking, twins, differentiation - and more common information transmission, for example, a saint in a certain world accidentally created magic, and a wise man in another world suddenly realized the mystery of magic. The raccoons located in Australia learned to wash food with water, and other raccoon tribes on the other end of the world also learned the same skills. This connection cannot be explained by logic. It comes from a more original source and comes from the resonance of existence.

Joshua usually doesn't think about these issues deliberately because he has something more important than these things to care about. But now, the warrior seems to understand the reason why he appears here, but continues to think deeply, but finds that reason is untenable. Soon, Joshua swept away the scattered thoughts in his mind. He knows that caring about what has happened in the past cannot change the present and the future. The only thing worthy of his attention now is the secrets that Israel Delmond is about to tell him, the deepest truths about the world.

"Say it, Your Majesty the Emperor." He said, "I'm listening carefully."

"Here, in the void, you can't understand." Isrell moved his eyes away from the continent of Mycrov beneath him. He raised his head and looked at Joshua: "You don't seem surprised at all - but it's right, after all, it's you. What's more, you have the inheritance of sages."

"Don't worry, although the Void Stargazing Institute is a far-reaching fortress for the Empire's observation outside, it is also an intermediary place connecting the Fairy Country and the place where you and I are going to go." As Isrell said, powerful energy fluctuations began to overflow from the four walls of the hidden conference room in this Stargazing Institute. The powerful energy made the emperor's dark golden hair fly up, and also made Joshua's clothes flew. The two looked at each other, and Isrell nodded, and then looked over his head: "Queen, start teleportation."

"Listen to you." A slightly cheerful female voice sounded from all around, and Joshua also felt a familiar breath - the breath he felt in the Fairyland not long ago, and one of the Fairy Queens.

Just the next moment, accompanied by extremely powerful traction power, a door with dark black light opened in the middle of the conference hall, and a series of dim lights that could not be expressed in words shone on Isrell, causing the figure of the legendary strong man to disappear in an instant. Joshua let the same light shine on him. He felt a force of time and space with ancient aura shrouded his whole body, as if he wanted to lead him to a distant and deep space. Unlike previous teleportation, this time it did not seem that the warriors needed to enter actively, they just needed to be pulled passively.

But here, something went wrong.

"Crack--"

After completely covering Joshua's whole body, he wanted to teleport away like Teleport Isrel suddenly flashed for a moment, and then turned into scattered light sand in the sky to dissipate. Joshua had already closed his eyes, but at this time he opened his eyes in confusion. The unknown fairy queen raised her tone in surprise: "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, failed? How could it be?! The realm magic array opened with my power cannot teleport you away?! It's impossible, Isrel and the old mage not long ago can teleport together, and your energy level cannot exceed the two of them!"

He talked to himself in shock for a long time. Joshua could even imagine that the fairy queen was constantly circling in a hurry, but then the queen seemed to have found the key. She asked cautiously: "Is this person... named Joshua? How heavy is it?"

“———About 100,000 tons.”

Because he fought against the demon king Helm not long ago, Joshua was a little sure of how much mass he had evaporated by the opponent's unique skills. However, during the rest and recovery in recent days, he had recovered a little with the resources in the Great Aes Mountains, so there must be 100,000 tons. After all, no matter what, his body is a solid body of steel.

"...You'd better go in by yourself..."

After being silent for a long time, the Fairy Queen said in an inexplicable tone: "No wonder the magic circle shows a void beast that is hundreds of meters high... I can't send you there."

After Qiao Xiuya took the initiative to contact the ink-colored space-time door and disappeared in the teleportation, a faint voice came from nowhere: "It turns out to be the type of dressing and looking thin..."

Unknown to have been given a strange comment by a certain fairy queen. At the end of the teleportation, Joshua opened his eyes and looked around, and found that he had come to a strange space.

The red light, the scorching high temperature, the rumbling roar and the ubiquitous magma that was rushing around the surrounding space, Joshua only took a few minutes to understand where he was. He raised his hand and smashed a thick arc of energy that had just jumped from his side, then turned to look at Isrell, who was on his side: "Deep in the earth?"

"Yes." He didn't care why Joshua arrived later than himself. His Majesty the Emperor nodded: "A special space that is spread around the center of the earth - to be precise, it is the node of the seal."

After a brief exchange with Isrel, Joshua continued to observe the surrounding situation. There is no doubt that the surroundings of the earth's center, the viscous lava at the bottom of the mantle is flowing at a crazy speed that ordinary people can't imagine under the action of high temperature and high pressure, just as rapid as a river running down from snow-capped mountains. Here, coke will be compressed into diamonds, and the pure gold will lose its form. In addition to legendary powerhouses, it is difficult for even the extremely conscious existence to survive here. However, in such a harsh environment, there is a huge spherical blank space. Although there are energy arcs that are thousands of meters long from time to time, it is enough to prove its magic.

Isrell stood in the center of this space filled with red magma. He raised his left hand. On his wrist, there was an ancient gray bracelet flashing light. Runes containing infinite mystery were illuminating one by one. Just when Joshua saw these runes, he subconsciously understood their pronunciation and meaning. The existence of this powerful ancient language itself was beyond logic, representing existence, and a divine word circulating among gods.

All the runes lit up, and Isrell clenched his left fist. The gray bracelet took off from his wrist and then automatically suspended in the air. The ancient patterns above them were escaping from them one by one, spreading towards all directions of the space. The chaotic energy arcs that were originally scattered in various parts of the space were guided by these runes and turned into straight lines. Within a few seconds, a huge three-dimensional matrix magic array filled the entire blank space. The extremely powerful sealing pressure was transmitted from it, and even made Joshua frown with vigilance.

"What is this, Isrel?"

"This is a legacy from the ancient times."

Facing the warrior's inquiry, His Majesty the Emperor lowered his head and stared at the center of the earth that was not far away, covered by countless golden and red magma. He said in a low and calm tone with no emotion at all: "The resonance begins."

As soon as he finished speaking, it seemed to resonate. Suddenly, three almost identical huge magic arrays lit up in the distance. They also surround the center of the earth, but the distance was so far away that they seemed to be half a continent apart. These four huge seal magic arrays occupied four directions, as if surrounding the entire center of the earth. There were magic light flows that span tens of millions of kilometers between them, connecting them. Huge runes flashed with sacred light, completely sealing the center of the earth.

"Four refuges and four seals, after three hundred years of loss, countless remnants walked out of the closed refuge. They were facing the hometown that had completely turned into another world and the crazy impact of monsters."

Watching the end of all changes, Isrell said softly, not only talking to himself, but also to Joshua Syria: "After a hundred years of battle, the four human gathering places appeared one by one on the earth, and the faith of the seven gods of the human race spread unknowingly. At that time, my ancestors, the ancestor of the Delmond family who almost unified the entire northern gathering area, met the fairy queen and the God of Justice who came to the world. He supported my ancestors to establish the largest kingdom on earth, but accordingly, my family must also take responsibility."

"Is it the sealing array deep in the center of the earth?" Joshua naturally knew what Isrel was saying. He frowned and asked, "What is it seal? Wait..." Joshua suddenly remembered something: "Yes... the sages used the corpses of the rich evil gods as the foundation to reshape the Mycrov continent, can it be?"

"Isn't that the sages left such hidden dangers? But the difference is not far, and for humans, it's even worse."

With a chuckle, Isrell raised his head and looked around the empty space that still had a place deep in the earth and would not be destroyed for thousands of years. He seemed to feel relaxed because he was finally able to tell outsiders this heavy secret: "Look, Joshua."

His Majesty the Emperor reached out and pointed at the solid center of the earth that was emitting high temperatures, and countless ancient runes that faintly appeared around it: "This is the seal left by the previous generation of gods."

"It distinguishes us from heaven and earth, and locks the will of the world firmly in the center of the earth. Since that day, many years ago, the star belonging to Mycrov has fallen, and it disappeared into the multiverse until you lit it again not long ago."

Joshua's pupils shrank slightly, and he finally understood what the hesitant doubt in his heart was! That was the will of the Mycrov world! He had communicated with Karlis and talked with Ilgna. Even in the extinguished world of Grantia, the newborn world will had prayed for redemption from him. He was the king of soul-burning, the intermediary of the world and life. As long as he existed, he should not be unable to detect the steel python of the Mycrov continent!

Joshua has not thought about similar questions before, but the continuous incidents interrupted his every deep thought. In addition, the continent of Mycrov is a dead world. The warrior felt that perhaps the will of this world might have died long ago - Karlis used himself to prove that the tenacity of the world will surpass any life imagination. Even its steel python that was almost exhausted for a thousand years could be revived by the injection of new flames. Then the Mycrov world, which has obtained all the flames of the Grantia world, should never continue to remain silent.

It is also a very strange thing that the previous generation of gods were silent. The father of nature could survive for so long under such a difficult situation. Why did all the gods of the glory era, as the victor, disappear, leaving only the obvious new generation of gods?

Until now, the answer has probably been revealed.

"The last generation of gods sacrificed themselves... sealed the will of the world?" Joshua tried hard to digest this message. He shook his head. This was not to express disbelief, but simply felt it was incredible: "Since it was not erosion and corruption of the evil gods, what other reasons would allow the gods and tribes to seal their mothers?"

The answer is very simple. In fact, Isreil's answer is not needed, and the warrior himself has already thought of the answer.

If this mother hadn’t taken the lead, why would the gods and the tribes living on this earth seal their will to live in the world?

"That is true, perhaps He believes that all disasters originate from human beings, perhaps it believes that the existence of life itself is the source of destruction, or it knows that it is dead, so it wants to fall into the abyss-there are thousands of reasons, but there is only one result. This mother of all things wants to erase everything on the earth and restart the ecological cycle."

Isrell's tone returned to calm, and he said in a indifferent tone: "It loves the Black Forest and the monsters that we had reproduced when we were still in refuge. Except for the blood of the gods of Mother Earth in the last era, we have long been regarded as our children... But I can't say anything, because the people cannot accept it, and the earth under their feet is actually their enemies."

"If one day the seal is lifted, then we have only three choices, to kill our mother, to be killed by her mother, or to leave the world."

"Abandoned race..." Listening to Isrel's helpless voice, for some reason, Joshua suddenly remembered the Astral Dragon. Whether it was the Five-Colored Dragon or the Metal Dragon, they were powerful races from other worlds. Their world had encountered a major disaster, so they had to escape. The warrior suddenly said: "They also know this, otherwise they would not have launched a dragon disaster so inexplicably and attacked the human elves alliance that was stronger than them."

It seems that this is the case. The existence of the will of the world, the whereabouts of the gods, the many ruins buried in the earth, and the origin of the Age of Starfall, all seemingly complex answers actually begin with a simple thing: the Mother of Creation is not loving its former children, that's all.

Although the lost three hundred years of history has not been explained, the remaining questions have been answered unpleasantly.

"Yes, the five-colored dragons knew this. They wanted to compete with us for dominance in the world, and then try to become the dominant leader of the Mycrov world and be completely accepted by it."

Isrell showed a sarcastic expression: "It's a pity that they failed, so they could only escape to the abyss. Instead, the metal dragons that have always opposed have obtained the right to continue to reproduce in this world, which is really funny."

After saying that, the Emperor took a step towards the center of the earth. The high-temperature and high-pressure environment seemed to be completely non-existent to him. The clothes on his body did not seem to be underground with thousands of degrees of high temperature, without any burn marks. Isrell said while walking, "So I disdain for those who are frivolous. They don't know anything. This earth has no value for conquest at all."

Isrel kept approaching the center of the earth, while Joshua walked side by side with him. Isrel did not stop. There was a fire in his eyes, which was even hotter than the surrounding magma: "This land has cultivated our ancestors and you and me. This is our hometown, but in the final analysis, it is not the destination of us and our descendants."

"Jothia, I look at you differently."

Turning his head suddenly, Isrel looked at Joshua, and he said bluntly: "I am the emperor and need to manage this country. Before looking for future possibilities, I need to be responsible for the present of my people. I am bound to this land and want to go to the starry sky, but I cannot cut off the ties... And you are different. You have traveled through other worlds several times and perfectly completed your goals. You understand how to find a world with life and understand what the environment we humans need."

"I understand what you mean."

Joshua narrowed his eyes slightly, and he couldn't help but remember the information that Karlis told him: There are many world wills that need his help to eradicate the chaos seeds parasitic in their bodies. There is no doubt that this is a work that needs to travel between various worlds. In addition, it is not difficult to seek future land for the various races of the Mycrov continent. Thinking of this, the warrior couldn't help but shake his head. He felt that everything seemed to be in line with a certain trend, just as the mysterious designer interviewed by the government in the Earth Federation said, as if everything was naturally running and then it came naturally.

"I have to say, Isrel, you are the emperor who is the least like an emperor I have ever seen." Having come above the center of the earth and feeling the scorching temperature, Joshua suddenly laughed for some reason. He said calmly: "What you think and what you pursue is completely different from what I knew before. Perhaps this is the difference between reality and illusion - I really admire."

"The cold and timid person never knows what success or failure is." Isrel, who did not understand what Joshua said, laughed the same way, closed his eyes and opened it again: "People who dare not act will be ridiculed by the gods."

"And I am a warrior after all, and courage and victory are my creed."

"Even if the opponent is this world?"

“The same is true.”
