Stray Chapter 90: The dogma of the realm of time and space: the self-balancing of mutual generation
"Mage?"
The burly and powerful Lord Balgruuf, the ruler of Xueman, sat on the seat at the end of the Longxiao Palace, frowning at the black figure standing in the palace.
A black cloak, pure black on the outside and red on the inside, the large cloak dangles neatly behind him, looking very neat and unrestrained, while most of the face under the hood is hidden in the shadows, only revealing the bright and clean the mandible.
Lord Balgruuf is somewhat disappointed by a very young mage, and not a race other than humans.
He didn't intend to meet the other party. Although he is not a lord who likes to put on airs, he is indeed a day-to-day manager. There are too many things in the whole Xueman that need him to have a headache, especially now in the entire Skyrim Province. The situation is precarious.
If anyone came to Longxiao Palace without saying their name or whether they brought important news or not, but they were able to receive him, would Lord Balgruuf still need to work? ?
The reason why he changed his mind now is because when he was having a headache about the situation, he received a report from the guard and couldn't help but think that no one should be bored to entertain him, plus the guard said that the other party looked like a god. It was mysterious, so he subconsciously thought maybe we should meet.
Unfortunately, Lord Balgruuf was somewhat disappointed by the mage's first impression.
Mystery is really mysterious...
But young is indeed too young...
No hair on the mouth and inability to do things well. Many people still think so even if they don’t say it on the surface. Especially, the profession of a mage is different from that of a warrior. What it needs is not youth and strength, but the accumulation of wisdom and knowledge and experience, which often grows proportionally with age. of.
Not a race with extraordinary talent, and no special bloodline, such mages are basically just apprentice-level rookies, right?
In order to confirm this, Lord Balgruuf also felt it carefully, and found that the fluctuation of the other party's sacred magic power was really weak, and he couldn't feel it at all, and finally gave up completely.
"What's the matter with you?" Without expressing his thoughts and disappointment, the lord asked in a deep voice, his face full of majesty.
"Lord Lord, let me introduce myself, I'm a traveler..." The magician glanced at this long-lost Lord Xueman with some emotion, and then smiled slightly, "This time I'm taking the liberty of visiting, it is I want to make a deal with you."
"Deal?"
Lord Balgruuf was stunned for a moment, and then he became interested. He leaned forward and rested his chin in one hand, looking at the mysterious person in front of him with interest: "Tell me, what is it?"
Then, he saw that the mysterious mage raised his head slightly, smiled at himself, and the clear eyes under the hood suddenly met him, as if there was a creepy feeling The magic power that can **** and pull people's souls in.
Without any resistance, Lord Balgruuf felt an odd sense of stiffness creeping into his body, blocking even the simplest of movements and preventing him from looking away.
In just an instant, he felt as if his consciousness had been pulled out of his body. Pulled by some invisible force, he was sucked into those eyes that were even more terrifying than a black hole. The sky and the earth were in him. The consciousness quickly moved away, time became visible and instantly zoomed in, constantly zooming in.
Or perhaps his soul was not actually pulled out of his body, but some information flowed into his mind, as if there was an image of the entire universe unfolding slowly in his mind, as if standing on the edge overlooking It was like a dark and terrifying bottomless abyss, let him see it exactly at this moment
Future!
From extremely close to extremely far, from extremely large to extremely small, they swarmed and revolved around the human senses.
It was a magnificent scene of doomsday destruction, the void was shaking and Chaos was disintegrating.
Extremely vast and endless, far from the horror that human beings can imagine, it is an ancient celestial body shaking and cracking...
A flood of disturbing revelations flooded Balgruuf's mind, making him understand for a moment what it was all about.
In the Orbis universe, there are a total of eight planets. According to those extremely ancient legends that have been passed down to this day, those celestial bodies are actually the "flesh" of the fallen Idra... That is to say, Each planet is a plane or body of a god, corresponding to the legends and beliefs of the eight holy spirits.
And the quality and volume of each god's plane is infinite, but in the eyes of mortals, it appears in the shape of a sphere, which is the true face of the planet. This is due to the limitations of mortals' own thinking and fixed attitudes. Their eyes are not open, and they can only see the corpses of extremely distant gods as a limited "point" in the night sky.
As it stands now, this is no nonsense.
Those celestial bodies, those huge planes wrapped in the night sky, are shaking and disintegrating at this moment, they have been silent for eternity for eternity, and they are reviving from "death", in the universe Struggling to break free from the shackles of the void.
The void is like an angry ocean constantly biting, the surging waves slammed in wave after wave, the gods revived, the world collapsed, and the trembling shock wave passed through, shaking Thurse A shivering void. So space is distorted, time is rolled into a vortex, and all order, laws and even common sense begin to become chaotic.
Everything in the world has been subverted, not to mention the laws of physics, and even magic will fail at this moment.
On a macro level, even the river of time is curled up, and everything is falling apart. The eight planes are like eight spokes, like the wheel structure supporting the material plane in the middle, the whole world is coming from within The outside collapsed and shattered.
From the virtualized historical information to the physical energy, everything is like a sand castle built on the beach, and it has collapsed at the moment when the tide is slamming over.
It's very simple, if the world is a house, then the current situation is that all the pillars, foundations, load-bearing walls, etc. of the house have suddenly come to life, and they are trying to escape outward, free from their own destiny fate, but the house is sure to collapse no matter what.
Balgruuf can only passively accept this information, even a resolute Nord barbarian can't help but lose his mind at this moment.
This has nothing to do with race, nor is it a shock that a mortal's will and mind can easily withstand. He just feels dizzy, with countless terrifying sights and thoughts squeezing his consciousness and suppressing his instincts and rationality.
This fear can overwhelm any mortal's reason, especially if he is directly enlightened and understands what is going on.
He subconsciously looked at Planet Nirn, at the world where mortals live.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the furious ocean engulfing the land, and the volcanoes erupted with billowing smoke. Under the unprecedented super earthquake, the archipelago and the mainland cracked and sank into the sea... Nairn was no exception. The bones of the earth cracked, and the ancient gods crawled out of the abyss.
The next moment
A clear and clear voice resounded beside the man: "This is the end, they came from the stars, and everything will end."
…………
With a jolt, Balgruuf returned to reality in a trance.
He turned his head and looked around in a daze, and found that he was still in the familiar Longxiao Palace. Nuoda's palace inevitably looked a bit empty, with two long tables and a long row below. The brazier is neatly arranged, and the brazier is burning.
Let the air in the empty palace feel a little warmer in the cold.
In the past, he would have a sense of fulfillment sitting here, although he was very troubled by all kinds of unfinished affairs and troubles... But now, all this makes him feel unusually unreal, it seems that Rootless duckweed will disappear at any time.
"Lord?"
The captain of the guard next to him is the elite of the elite. He noticed the difference in an instant, and immediately misunderstood.
Could it be that this mage is so unafraid of death that he dared to use illusions to try to confuse and manipulate the spirit of the lord when he met the ruler of Xueman?
"Stop, I'm fine." Balgruuf came back to his senses, raised his hand and said in a deep voice, stopping the guards who came from all around.
The latter and the others looked at each other in dismay. For a while, they were not too sure what was going on. However, the court mage was still beside him. The captain of the guard nodded.
A no (single) must (square) be (face) rush (drug) sudden (strike) disappears in the invisible, nothing happens.
“…”
“…”
After being silent for a long time, Balgruuf, who was sitting in the seat, didn't know what he was thinking, and his face was very gloomy.
He hoped that everything he had just experienced, those brief and fragmented consciousnesses were all a false dream, but it was so real that it made him horrified, it was neither an image nor a sound, but an undeniable apocalypse .
This self-proclaimed traveler, an extremely mysterious mage, has just sent his mind into the river of time, crossed the abyss of time, and projected into the future. The spirit has clearly seen the terrifying doomsday
Mu Yong questioned that there will be a big collapse, catastrophe, and mass extinction in the entire universe in the not-too-distant future!
"Why is this happening?" With a hoarse voice, the man asked, staring at the mysterious existence in front of him.
He met the other party in the hope that this person could bring some change to himself, who had been suffering from headaches these days.
It's good now, the turning point has indeed appeared. Balgruuf has been suffering from headaches because of the civil war in Skyrim and the sharp reduction in food production. Now it seems that he doesn't have to have headaches all of a sudden. In the face of even more terrible disasters, this is not worth it at all issues of importance.
"After the creation of the world, no Idra survived..."
The magician smiled slightly, "But why did the gods sacrifice themselves to create the world? The world and mortals don't take for granted the dividends brought by their sacrifices. They don't want to continue to maintain the world now, it's that simple. ."
The fall at this time is for the ascension at that time, and the gods created the world for the sake of detachment.
Not because God loves the world and is selfless, so he created the world and embodied all things...
There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing, and there is no distinction between good and evil, but the weak really have no right to choose, so everything can only end here.
"Mage, what's the deal you talked about before...?" Taking a deep breath, Balgruuf asked in a deep voice.
This is definitely an existence that can rival the gods, no matter what, this is the only chance he can rely on at the moment.
……
……
Time flies, about two months away.
A tower that is invisible to ordinary people stands in the Xueman Land. It imitates the structure of the world wheel, places itself in the absolute center of the universe, reproduces the basis of the rules of creation, and turns it into a pillar of the present world.
Xia Ran personally took a trip to the Throat of the World. It was a very important concept to take the original stone "tower" of the snow tower without anyone knowing it, but in this world, it was not All refer to tower buildings.
For example, the "Brass Tower" is a **** created by the Dwemer family for themselves. This giant walking tower has a human-shaped appearance and is a brass giant walking in the world...
Another example is the "Stand of Chaos", which itself is one of many "towers"... So the true face of the "Snow Tower" is actually a mountain, the highest peak in the world standing in the sky, which is not surprising.
Magicians themselves don't have much to care about. They have already reached this point. Instead of letting these things disappear with the entire universe, it is better to use them. By the way, you can also maintain this history. key process.
Yes, Xia Ran does not intend to tamper with history during this time period, and doing so will cause unnecessary trouble.
Because this universe is the dream of the great **** Anu...
Time and space can be manipulated arbitrarily in front of the transcendent, but if the timeline to be modified is caught in the wrestling of two powerful beings, it will become very troublesome. Although God Anu did not know what he experienced and fell into such a long dream, he is definitely the best among the immortals.
His dream created the universe of The Elder Scrolls. This is not surprising, but the scary thing is that even the thoughts in the dream can evolve into conceptual gods. After escaping from Anu's dream , is also an immortal in the true sense, and can be called an existence like a **** and a demon in the upper realm.
This is horrible.
Xia Ran didn't want to waste time in unnecessary fights, so after reviewing this history, he felt that maintaining this space-time node was a more profitable choice. Don't clash with Anu and let it all go on as history.
In this case, his past can be double protected. If someone wants to make a fuss about this, the timeline will change, and it will also affect this powerful immortal who gave up on himself and fell into a long dream , at that time will usher in the double blow of getting up gas.
"It's so nostalgic..."
Above the tower, facing the long wind blowing, the magician watched the group of people who arrived in this plane by teleporting to the beam of light that was invisible to the naked eye.
They appeared out of thin air in the depths of the snow-capped mountains just north of Xuemanling, shivering amid the goose-feather snow and the roaring cold wind, all of them freezing like grandchildren, but because of this, Appearing in the inaccessible wilderness, it is very good to integrate into this world at the first time.
The magician saw the scene where the loli, who was still 1.4 meters tall, was talking to the team members and temporary members, and also saw the young self at that time.
Xia Ran, a lost person who had just entered this mission world, also brushed away the snowflakes that fell on his head, turned to look at the tower standing in the distance led by Xueman, and smiled calmly.
The magician looks away, no longer looking at himself. After all, this feeling is really a subtle sense of schizophrenia.
He turned his eyes to look at the sky, staring at the beams of light that descended in the past or in the future. This is the trace of the space-time delivery technology, which is as obvious as the trajectory cloud of a fighter jet.
During this period of time, the world has been constantly flooded with some foreign visitors. Among them, they have no power to smash the laws of physics by relying on muscle strength, and the speed is also slow like an old grandmother crossing the road. Ordinary people who can't reach the speed of light standard.
There is also the aura of those in high positions.
It is understandable that the level of this world is not an ordinary copy for rovers, and there are many opportunities for power, knowledge, etc. that they can use and pursue, so when the main line of space is opened, they will definitely use all means. descended into this world.
Xia Ran is a peace-loving person and doesn't want to have any conflicts with them, so although she doesn't stop these hard-working colleagues, she euphemistically expresses to them that she doesn't want to be disturbed by others
Under the radiance of infinite divinity, the huge ancient snakes are entrenched in the sky province of countless time lines, looking indifferently at the wanderers who descend in different events. The body exudes a cold meaning.
Don't approach strangers, keep acquaintances away, and if you dare to approach, you will be killed!
This kind of undisguised, naked threat, after weighing the gap between each other, those extraterrestrial gods and demons wisely chose to retreat, and none of them entered the boundaries of Skyrim Province.
At the same time, in the depths of Longxiao Palace, not only was it shrouded in infinite divine brilliance, but the demonic artifact, which was extremely close to the source of divinity, could not help but trembled and emitted bursts of bursts. The humming, even the demon **** body in the annihilation field outside the world felt a shudder.
Unbelievably powerful...
Mephala felt a terrible sense of crisis like never before.
Because the Ebony Blade is an extension of his power, he intuitively feels how stalwart the existence that is so close at hand is, how magnificent, he is definitely not an existence that he can compete with. Let him also have a sense of suffocation that he will die at any time.
While arousing intense curiosity and interest in uncharted territories beyond the world, Mephala also felt the need to do something.
The image of the **** is an ancient snake with seven heads and ten horns. It makes him unable to resist confrontation, and his sealed demon artifact is still under the eyes of the other party, which is uncomfortable... Now the other party I don't even look at myself at all, but it's not a problem to hold the lifeblood in the hands of others.
Hurry up and find a hapless man to bind his demon artifact, at least bring it away from the range of Longxiao Palace, not so close to the tower and the snake, it will make him feel insecure.
At the same time, you can also further implement your own escape plan...
Thinking of this, Mephala felt that she had to act as soon as possible.
