Chapter 185 The Four Horsemen of the Devil's Apocalypse
In the star field closest to the ring world, 3 light years away, on an administrative planet.
The entire planet fell into silence at this moment. Everyone saw the entire process of the destruction of the ring world through subspace communication, the scenes of struggle, resistance, and finally falling into the belly of the giant snake. The entire process, without any omissions.
There is a kind of sadness that a thing hurts its own kind, but more of it is...
"We... survived?"
An administrative bureaucrat feels as if he is in a dream.
Just three days ago, this administrative bureaucrat grabbed the last boat ticket and was able to escape to this planet and survived. But he watched helplessly as the world around him was swallowed up. After feeling great fear and sadness,
, what emerged was ecstasy and joy.
"Well, we survived..."
The person next to him also watched intently, watching the giant snake stretch its body lazily, and the majestic giant snake swam in the dark void, heading towards a more distant world.
"After ringing the world, the World Devourer will head towards the center of the galaxy. This time will be very long, as long as 50,000 years. There are not too many administrative planets passing through, and the galaxy can accommodate these refugees."
"That is to say, at least in these 70,000 years, humans will never encounter the World Devourer again. We survived, we survived, and this nightmare is finally coming to an end."
As he said that, the man actually became a little excited, his eyes were strange and he was full of energy.
In these seven thousand years, the entire human world has been facing fear and threats. More than half of humanity is above the Ring World, and the giant snake wants to devour the Ring World. Among all cultural products
, the confrontation with the nightmare, the symbol of death - the world devourer, is a subject that humans talk about.
Now, the World Eater will go to devour the super black hole in the center of the Milky Way. Although half of humanity died, the other half of humanity survived, and it is foreseeable that humanity will not encounter that nightmare again.
They survived and will survive forever.
The administrative bureaucrats around him also immediately realized this.
From now on, although the World Devourer still exists, it is no longer the enemy of mankind, but closer to a cosmic phenomenon. In a sense, although mankind paid a huge price, it still survived to the end, and we survivors are the only ones who survive.
He's the final winner, isn't he?
Although saying this is a bit sorry for the 20 billion human beings who died, it was their sacrifice that brought about the survival of all mankind and this rare and long peace.
"Yeah, that's great."
Thinking of this, the administrative bureaucrats couldn't help but laugh and began to think about the bright future of mankind in the peaceful years after this.
The atmosphere at the scene gradually became more relaxed, but at this moment, someone suddenly emitted a weak spiritual energy fluctuation.
"But without Ring World, then... who has the final say now?"
The originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly came to a halt.
The Ring World is the center of the human world, because half of the human beings in the galaxy live here and have the most powerful technology, force, and culture. For ten thousand years, the human world has been accustomed to accepting the dominance of the Ring World.
But now that the ring world is destroyed, who will dominate the galaxy next?
The prophets naturally respect them, but they don't care about specific matters. There are 700 billion human planets in the entire galaxy, so who can get the opportunity to dominate the galaxy? Does that mean...
For a moment, an undercurrent surged beneath the silence.
…
While everyone was talking, in another part of the administrative planet, more than a dozen men in gray robes were looking in the direction of the ring world.
"Finally... I finally escaped."
One of them said silently.
"We did not hesitate to distort history, destroy the Second Republic, and establish the Third Reich. All our efforts were to continue the survival of mankind. Although half of humanity died, we still escaped no matter what."
Yes, I escaped.
No matter what, they all escaped, and there will be a long period of time ahead when humans can find ways to explore extragalactic galaxies. By then, even if the galaxy falls into destruction, humans will still be able to exist.
The glory of mankind will last forever.
But among the crowd, there was a man in gray robe who hesitated to speak, and finally did not speak.
The leader looked at him sideways and said.
"I know what you want to say... Husoluan's knot is still unresolved. Don't be sad. He just went to see the emperor."
As he spoke, everyone sighed, and then fell into silence for a while, mourning the passing of a psychic master.
However, although we are reluctant to give up, after all, someone has to prepare for the mission of rebuilding the human world. The ring world has been destroyed, and the human world is already in danger. One mistake may lead to the disintegration of 700 billion human planets.
Time is running out now, and we must try our best to bring those chaotic situations under control and suppress the desires of careerists.
The psychic masters were discussing in a low voice. At this moment, someone suddenly raised his head with doubts on his face.
"Wait, this feeling is..."
Immediately afterwards, all the psychic masters also reacted, and they all looked shocked.
It's the subspace, and within the subspace, an unprecedented huge change has occurred.
The subspace that once allowed free travel is now closed to navigation.
…
Subspace is the only supernatural phenomenon known to mankind besides psychic powers.
This is a strange world independent of the real universe. During the event known as the "Great Awakening", humans accidentally discovered this strange world. In this world, speed no longer has an upper limit, and time can flow naturally.
Going back in time, the boundaries between life and death become blurred... Various strange phenomena surprise humans.
No one knows the size of this strange world, because there is only chaos and turbulence here, as well as some very strange and strange things. Even the masters of psychic energy know very little about the subspace, but the great will occasionally reminds them that this is [Old
world】.
However, although they cannot understand the principles of subspace, this does not prevent humans from using subspace to achieve their own purposes.
With the help of the strange properties of subspace, faster-than-light travel becomes possible; only psychic masters can realize time travel. Half of the prosperity of the human world is due to the exploration of subspace.
But now, a storm is setting off in the subspace.
What even the psychic masters don't know is that this old world has a very special function: it holds the souls of the dead.
In this world, only humans have souls, so only humans can use psychic powers. But both psychic powers and souls are bugs left over from the old world. This physical universe does not accept the existence of souls, so souls with nowhere to place them are
Wander into the abandoned wreckage of an old world.
Only here, in this old world, does [soul] exist reasonably.
The vast majority of souls drifted in the old world for a few days, and then naturally dissipated under the influence of the remaining old world rules. Some souls were particularly powerful and might remain forever, but most of them were twisted into monsters.
But just now, the old world suddenly welcomed an unprecedented number of souls of the dead.
There are too many dead people.
If each particle of dust can hold ten thousand souls, then these dust particles can accumulate to form a planet; if each drop of morning dew can hold one hundred thousand souls, then these morning dew can accumulate to form an ocean.
Twenty billion dead people, their souls are twisted, entangled, resentful, and cursed.
"why why?!"
There were distorted and weird faces, and the outstretched arms struggled to break free, but were dragged into them by other arms and could not leave.
The huge and deformed souls twisted and attracted those strange monsters, but those dark and weird monsters were also swallowed up by these souls and dragged into them. The darkness swallowed the darkness and twisted the surrounding world.
And this restlessness shook the entire subspace, and finally attracted Apocalypse.
The four knights who had been chosen by Satan and performed incredible feats woke up from their long sleep. The four knights rode four horses, singing loudly in their mouths, and rushed towards those twisted and crazy souls.
"God bless those who believe, and have no distinction among the four loves; or show pity to those who believe, and show love and piety; those who give orders to believers, respect and love the true words; those who are anointed and believers, will always respect our God..."
As a result, the originally chaotic soul began to integrate...
[When I saw the Lamb opening the first of the seven seals, I heard one of the four living creatures with a voice like thunder saying, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, there was a white horse, and he who sat on it was
He took a bow, and a crown was given to him. Then he came out, victorious, and victorious.]
[When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” Then another horse came out, a red one. And authority was given to the rider to take away peace from the earth and to bring peace to the earth.
People were killing each other, and a great sword was given to him.]
[When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” So I looked, and behold, there was a black horse. The man who sat on the horse had a scale in his hand. And I heard among the four living creatures something like
A voice said: "One denarius will buy one liter of wheat, one denarius will buy three liters of barley, and do not waste the oil or wine."]
[When I opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living creature say, "Come!" And I looked, and behold a pale green horse. The one who sat on the horse was named Death, and Hades followed him.
And authority was given to them to kill a fourth of the people on the earth with sword, famine, pestilence ("plague" or "death") and wild beasts."]
--"Revelation"
At the moment of doomsday, God’s Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse did not arrive, but the Devil’s Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse did.
…
physical universe.
Somewhere in the void, a huge gap was suddenly torn open, and a huge arm covered with abscesses and a foul smell stretched out from it. There were rotten wounds everywhere on the arm. Many unknown insects and animals gnawed at this
Arms, these parasites eat the substances that should be highly poisonous.
Their bodies are constantly mutating. In order to adapt to these ever-changing toxic substances, these beings have exhausted the ultimate in biological evolution in just a few breaths. From birth to death, they have demonstrated the incredible tenacity and perseverance of life.
The stretched out head looked at the world filled with stars, but it showed a look of disappointment.
"The ugly world...needs to be transformed...rebuilt..."
As he spoke, the swollen and rotten god continued to tear open the cracks in space, completely breaking away from the obstruction and entering the physical universe.
On a planet several light years away from this rotten god, a plant was quietly changing. When a small rabbit-like animal jumped past the plant, the plant suddenly opened its own blood basin.
Big mouth.
"Click..."
And elsewhere in the galaxy...
On a lost and wild planet, at the festival, everyone stared dumbfounded at the sudden appearance of a beautiful woman, her eyes revealing deep longing. But looking at the human in front of her, the woman couldn't help but laugh.
.
While smiling, she couldn't help but lick her lips, staring greedily at the soul in front of her.
Among the stars, the first batch of believers knelt before the huge evil god. Facing the cowering believers, the terrifying and cruel god only gave one order.
"Heads are sacrificed to the skull throne, blood is sacrificed to the blood god..."
In a certain research institute, a researcher was deeply confused. He didn't know what to do with his research. At this time, some wonderful inspirations appeared in his mind.
"Wait, if this... this... and this..."
The excited researcher became excited.
In his mind, the mysterious gods looked at him with interest, anticipating how excited the researcher would be when he finally used the flesh and blood of his relatives and friends to forge that war machine.
…
At this moment, humans are still debating the interests of each planet after the subspace channel is broken and the power vacuum of each planet has been lost. 700 billion planets are ready to move, either in chaos or separatism.
However, mankind is still unaware that a long war is about to plunge the entire galaxy into despair.
At the ruins of the Ring World, some unmanned machines are silently exploring, searching for possible traces of survival. Several years have passed since the great change, but occasionally some survivors in cryogenic chambers can still be found here.
.
And in a dead group of meteorites, a seemingly scrapped spacecraft suddenly flashed its indicator light.
"The emergency power supply is insufficient and is being thawed... Dear guests, the Starship spacecraft is at your service. Welcome to wake up from the journey..."
In the freezing cabin, a pair of confused eyes opened.
