I Am God!

"Huhu~"

Overwhelming yellow sand filled the earth, and a city loomed in the distance.

This is the Demon Abyss King City, the city of the Demon Spirit Clan.

The word "demon spirit" can be said to be a combination of monsters and ghosts, or it can also be said to be the spirit of the devil's abyss.

The former people of the Demonic Abyss are no longer here, but their spirits and will still linger on the earth.

now.

A figure wearing a smock was walking in the yellow sand, and the robe was constantly swaying in the wind.

He walked forward with his head lowered, as if he was picking something up in the dust.

There are many things buried outside the Demonic Abyss King's City, some of which can even be traced back to the previous era.

"No more?"

"Looks like we've almost found it."

Under the blouse is a body made of metal. This is a puppet demon named Lei.

What Lei was looking for were the things that he had left behind in this yellow sand, the wreckage and parts of various aircraft with different structures, and there were even notes or other things left by him in the past.

Lei was walking in the yellow sand, and he suddenly discovered something. His right hand made of metal suddenly turned into a mechanical flying claw and penetrated into the yellow sand, and then grabbed something.

"It's a broken stone!"

Lei put it down and walked forward. Not long after, he grabbed another rusty thing from the yellow sand.

"this is."

Lei became happy and put it in his storage ring.

He has picked up such parts again and again, but recently they have become less and less.

The big ones can no longer be found, they are all broken small parts. The others either flowed with the yellow sand to the outside of the stone foundation of Demon Abyss City, or they have long since decayed.

"There are also some parts here, why can't they be found elsewhere?"

"Did it go to other places with the flow of sand?"

While searching for these parts, Lei sometimes asked himself a question.

One that he has been persevering seems to come from the heart, but there are still unsolved problems.

"How many flying machines have I made?"

"Why do I have to fly into the sky every time and want to fly in the direction where the sun rises?"

Ray didn't know why every one of them was so similar, every one of them would have almost exactly the same thoughts.

perhaps.

It's because he was born longing for the distance and the sun!

The wind picked up sand particles and hit Lei's burqa. Some of it poured into his clothes and got stuck in the gaps of the metal structure.

This made Lei feel a little uncomfortable and he wrapped his burqa tighter.

He said as he walked.

"It would be better if I could find another notebook."

"By the way, I heard that the alchemists in the Land of the Rising Sun are very powerful and can create all kinds of alchemy tools and things beyond ordinary people's imagination."

"It might be better if we can communicate with them."

recent.

Ray is going to build a brand new flying machine.

Because he plans to take this aircraft to go further, maybe to travel around the entire Ruhe Island, but in comparison, he is more looking forward to seeing the outside world.

Ever since Elena ascended the mythology with the help of the Demon Spirit Pyramid, the Demon Spirit is no longer bound to the endless sea of ​​sand.

This strange life form occasionally appears in the country of snake people, causing a lot of commotion, and has become a background character in various fantasy and magnificent stories.

Lei also occasionally leaves the Demon Abyss City. From time to time, he goes to nearby cities in the Kingdom of Yellow Sand to see the things made by snake craftsmen and collect some precious alchemy tools.

For example, the storage ring on his hand was something he recently bought from the Kingdom of Yellow Sand.

He heard from a person in the Kingdom of Yellow Sand that there was a wider world beyond the giant island of Luhe.

There have been people who have gone out and found a new world and a new paradise outside.

When he heard the term "New World" and "Paradise".

I couldn't help but feel excited.

He asked the other person: "What will the new world look like?"

"What will the new paradise look like? Can it accommodate many people?"

The other party answered him: "The new world is said to be much larger than the entire Ruhe Island. It can accommodate countless countries and accommodate countless people."

"It is said that the Evel people and the legendary Winged People live over there in the New World."

Wing Man Lei knew that a race was born to fly.

You can fly freely in the sky without even using an aircraft.

Listening to the legends of the new world and imagining a clan with wings soaring in the sky, Lei felt an incomparable yearning in his heart.

Especially the story of the Aiweier people made Lei feel an indescribable emotion in his heart.

A little sad, but also happy for them.

"It's really great."

"When the race faced a desperate situation, they resolutely left the giant island of Ruh and headed for the distance."

"Eventually we can find a habitat suitable for their species."

"It's really... great."

Lei asked the other party again: "How did they get to the new world? Where did they start from?"

Unfortunately, the person in front of me didn't know very well either.

The history of the Aiweier people has gone too long, and people may have heard the folktales of the Aiweier people, which are colored by myths and legends.

But really ask them where the Avilians live, where the Avilians are heading to the new world, what the Avilians look like.

They don't know anymore.

But when it comes to storytelling, it’s more convenient to make it up based on your feelings.

"They set out toward the east, kept moving toward the sun, and found the New World."

When Lei heard what the other party said, he stood up excitedly.

"Yes, if you go straight towards the sun, you will definitely be able to find a new world."

After listening to the stories of the Ewell people, Lei also wanted to set out like these people to see the new world.

Unfortunately, his original aircraft was only capable of short-term flight, could not sustain long-term soaring, and could not carry enough weight.

So he planned to build a new aircraft, one that would allow him to fly across continents and seas.

Even an aircraft that flies to the new world.

If he could, he even wanted to fly along the sky to the sun.

Lei rummaged through the yellow sand and found not only parts, but also his previous ideas and thoughts on manufacturing aircraft.

He also found two notebooks of his own, which greatly inspired him to create new aircraft.

——

Lei ended his daily routine of "picking up trash" and returned to the Demon Abyss City.

The demon spirits in the city greeted Lei.

One of the puppet demons was sitting on the suspension bridge and asked after seeing Lei passing by.

"thunder!"

"I went out to pick up rags again today!"

This puppet demon sits here and watches the scenery every day, and sees Lei passing by here every day.

Lei didn't mind, and said to him: "You are picking up rags, that is the treasure I once lost."

Further forward, a demon spirit in the form of a kite floated down and asked Lei in an ethereal voice.

"I heard they say you want to fly to the sun."

Lei told the Kite Demon: "I think the closer to the sun, the more luxuriant the plants will grow and the more vigorous life will be."

"If we keep moving towards the sun, we will definitely find the most suitable place for life to live."

"A whole new world."

The kite demon couldn't quite understand what Lei said, so she just nodded softly.

"It turns out that I don't want to fly to the sun!"

After that, it just floated away.

Lei felt that he was being despised, so he continued to shout at the kite demon.

"This is just the first step. You can also fly to the sun in the future."

"If you want to go, I can take you with me."

But the kite demon spirit had already gone far away, and I don’t know if he heard what he said.

This made Lei's idea of ​​bringing a companion come to nothing.

The entire Demon Abyss City does not look much different from before. It is still closed and quiet, like a paradise.

It gives people the feeling that time seems to have stopped here.

Although the demon spirits are a race, they have the foundation of an ancient civilization.

But the demon spirit clan has never found a direction that truly belongs to them, a driving force that a civilization should have.

They hide in this small shelter, isolated from the world, and have almost no communication with the outside world.

Although some demon spirits have recently left Demon Abyss King City and traveled to distant places, this feeling of bringing changes and a future to the entire demon spirit clan has not yet come.

As a race, as a civilization.

It lacks energy.

Even more lack of goals.

Lei did not return to his Miracle Workshop, but walked all the way directly to the Demon Spirit Pyramid.

As soon as he stepped into the Temple of Insai, he was dragged into another realm by a powerful force.

Unlike the inverted pyramid outside, the Demonic Pyramid here is upright.

Outside the Insai Temple, there is a statue guarding the temple.

Under the statue.

He saw a cloaked and hooded god, a woman with two faces: physical and ghost; a mysterious compass hung on the woman's chest, and a sword hilt was exposed from her robe.

Exactly the same as the standing statue, it was Elena, the God of Demon Spirits.

It's just that He is a god.

But guarding the temple of another god.

At this moment, Elena, the God of Demon Spirits, is using the power of the Demon Spirit Pyramid to pay attention to the prayer of another Demon Spirit in the distance.

A short puppet demon can be seen praying to Elena.

Singing in his mouth: "The controller of the Demon Spirit Pyramid, the God who protects monsters and demon spirits, the Lord of the Demon Abyss from the ancient times."

This is the three-stage divine name set up by Elena, which allows the demon clan to communicate with him through the divine name and rituals in the dream world.

As the prayer ends, the scene gradually disappears.

Elena, the God of Demon Spirits, finally turned around and looked at Lei.

"thunder."

Lei knelt on the ground: "Ms. Elena, do you have any orders for me?"

Elena gave Lei a task: "Olan, the apostle of the God of Desire and Alchemy, has arrived. You, on my behalf, go and greet him!"

Lei knew Olan, who had been to Demon Abyss City before.

Moreover, Olan also has a relationship with Ms. Elena. It was he who returned Ms. Elena's Divine Grace Stone to the Demon Abyss City, which made the Demon Pyramid Plan completely successful.

"The last time he came here was many years ago!"

"Why did you come here this time?"

Elena told Lei: "The God of Desire and Alchemy wants to compete for the Fruit of Wisdom, and Oran should become his servant."

"He is traveling. In addition to congratulating me on becoming a myth, he should also be looking for his own path to myth."

Lei nodded: "The world outside is really lively."

There was no envy in his words, only longing for the distance.

It even makes people feel that even if Olan becomes a god, he doesn't think his attitude will change.

Lei was about to leave, when the God of Demon Spirits in front of the Yinsai Temple called out to him.

Elena asked Ray.

"thunder."

"I heard that you want to leave Ruhe Island."

Elena's face as a metal doll stopped talking, but the ghost's face showed fluctuations, and she asked him.

"Why?"

When Lei heard Elena asking him, he immediately scratched his head.

Some smiled like children and said to Elena: "Why?"

"Ms. Elena."

"There's no reason, I just want to go!"

Sometimes people dream of distant places and want to do a certain thing, seemingly for no reason.

Just suddenly, I want to go far away and want to do it.

But in Lei's case, his sudden desire seemed to have another reason, and Elena could see the reason.

Elena looked at Lei and said nothing, but suddenly walked down from the door of the temple.

He walked down the stairs and stood in front of Lei.

He took off an ornament he wore around his neck.

Then, he hung it on Lei's body with his own hands.

That's Elena's compass.

[Miracle prop·Compass that is more than just a guide]

【Serial number 163】

[Elena, the Demon Abyss Knight, saw a strange sight at the seaside and was influenced by the underworld to create this compass. 】

[Ability 1: It can not only point to the south, but also find the whereabouts of someone or something that has been in contact with them all year round. With it, we will no longer lose old things. 】

[Ability 2: It can point in the direction of one's own heart. With it, we will not lose the goal. 】

Lei was very shocked, and at the same time he didn't understand why Elena suddenly gave him such a thing.

"Ms. Elena."

"This is your baby, it has never left your side."

Elena: "It's just a matter of getting used to it."

Elena and Ray explained the purpose of the compass and its origin.

"It was the world's first compass. I made it with my own hands, but it did more than just point south."

Ray asked Elena: "Where is it pointing?"

Elena: "It can find the person you want to find based on the breath, and it can also point to anywhere you want to find."

"It is a miraculous creation, a gift from the Creator and the Lord of Dreams."

"The Trileaf people and the people of the Demonic Abyss are the direct bloodline of the King of Wisdom, Lederiki. We once had many things, and this is one of them."

Ray reached out and took the compass Elena gave him.

He looked at the compass in his palm and found that the pointer kept shaking and refused to stop no matter what.

"But, Ms. Elena!"

"It keeps spinning around."

Elena asked Ray: "So do you really know the direction of your heart?"

"Have you really found the goal in your heart?"

"thunder!"

Lei left, holding the compass given to him by Elena in his hand, feeling a little confused.

But after Ray left, Ghost Elena spoke.

"Two hundred and fifty million years have passed, and he still remembers his wish."

The doll Elena replied, "It's just that an era has passed, and the wishes I once had have long expired with time."

Ghost Elena: "But he still remembers."

Lei was born in the era of God's Abandonment. He once wanted to go to distant places to find a place of hope, but finally gave up because of Elena's Demonic Spirit Pyramid Plan, and was willing to become a demonic spirit bound in the Demonic Abyss King's City.

But in his heart, he still remembered his desire.

In an era when there is no hope, he goes to distant places to find the hope in his heart, the new world and paradise in his imagination.

But after an era, its former goals and desires no longer had any meaning, but they still bound him.

——

In the sky.

A magic carpet flexibly shuttles under the sea of ​​clouds, heading towards the endless sea of ​​sand.

On the magic carpet were Olan and Gamer. They stayed in a hotel in the Kingdom of Yellow Sand yesterday. They saw the tough customs of the desert people, the endless caravans of beasts of burden, and the dancers in the tavern. of hotness.

It is a small country, living in a barren land on the edge of a sea of ​​sand.

The most indispensable thing in Leize Kingdom is water, but every drop of water here is so precious.

On the magic carpet, the lantern attached to the Cup of Desire spoke: "The country of yellow sand turns out to be such a country. They believe in the giant god of the desert."

"But it seems that they have not really established contact with this giant god of Ruch."

Oran is well-informed: "The giant gods of Ruhe are different from ordinary gods. They don't need the faith of intelligent species at all."

What the Wisdom Demigod needs is not so much the faith of mortals, but rather the need to select those servants of gods from places of faith. The faith and piety of ordinary mortals actually have no effect on the Wisdom Demigod.

It can only be said that with a basic base of faith, it has always been more convenient to choose servants of God.

For the giant god Ruhe, the faith of mortals is even more useless.

Oran talked about something about a new country that he only learned about recently.

"It is said that a new country was born in the wasteland, called the Wasteland Witch Country."

"Behind it, there is the support of the wizard spirit and the god of truth and knowledge."

Every country on the giant island of Ruh has a god as its background.

Without the support of gods, a country cannot be established.

Even if there is really no support from the gods, at least you have to pretend to have the support from the gods.

This is how the Kingdom of Lei Ze and the Kingdom of Yellow Sand were born.

Gamer came here for the first time: "Lord Oran, where is the Demon Abyss City?"

Oran said: "The location of the Demon Abyss City is not fixed. This sea of ​​sand is moving all the time, so the city is also moving. We can only find it slowly."

But this time Oran entered the endless sand sea and didn't look for long before something changed.

The flying magic carpet was flying well in the sky, and suddenly a strange sound came from the distance.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

A strange thing came from a distance, flew next to the flying magic carpet, and soared in the sky with Oran and Gamel.

The magic carpet and the aircraft are side by side under the sea of ​​clouds. This scene is particularly strange for snake people and even powerful people in this era.

The being on the aircraft turned around and said hello to Oran.

"Olan."

"You're here again."

Gamer had never seen such a scene before. He could probably guess that the moving doll was the legendary demon spirit clan, but what was this flying thing?

"It will move."

"A moving doll."

"What is he prescribing, an alchemy tool?"

It's just that Gamer couldn't feel the slightest fluctuation of extraordinary power from above.

What does this mean?

The other party did not use any extraordinary power and just flew in the sky.

This is even rarer than extraordinary flying props, and even more incredible.

But the apostle on the magic carpet recognized the other person: "It's you Lei!"

Lei stared at Olan's flying magic carpet. The last time Olan entered the Demon Abyss City, he had already put this thing away, and Lei did not notice it at the time.

"Olan!"

"Your magic carpet is very interesting. Can you tell me how it is made?"

Olan said generously: "I can give one to you."

Lei shook his head: "No, I just want to study it."

"Recently, I want to remodel my flying machine, and your magic carpet is very interesting."

"I can use my flying machine manufacturing method to exchange with you."

Oran raised his head and looked at Lei.

"In this case, I am taking too much advantage."

The production method of the flying magic carpet is not considered a high-end technology in the White Tower Alchemy Alliance, but this kind of aircraft that allows ordinary people to fly into the sky does not require the use of flying supplies made of extraordinary materials, which is completely different.

At least apart from Lei's look, Olan has never seen it anywhere else.

Oran felt that if this thing appeared in the White Tower Alchemy Alliance, it might trigger a new round of alchemical revolution.

Lei didn't care: "Then we made an agreement."

Lei drove the aircraft and circled in the sky several times, as if showing off his skills.

He could turn the aircraft upside down, with its head facing the earth and parallel to the flying magic carpet.

"I'll take you to see Ms. Elena first."

"You can come to my Miracle Workshop later and we can discuss it together."

"Olan!"

"I was just thinking today that it would be great if an alchemist came to Demon Abyss City. I didn't expect you to come."

After the cheerful words fell, the aircraft accelerated and rushed to the front to lead the way.

The magic carpet followed, and only then did Gamel say in shock.

"The talking monster really looks exactly like a living person."

"They can actually make such flying objects. This is not a prop. How did they make it?"

Gamel's words were filled with the arrogance of a wise species, and the contempt for monsters, a race that is inherently dull.

Even though the monsters transformed into monsters under the power of the God of Demon Spirits, they still felt that these monsters would be as stupid as the monsters and were proud of the civilization created by the snake people.

Oran suddenly lowered his head and looked at Gamer seriously.

"Gamel!"

"you are wrong."

"The monsters turned into monsters are completely different from them."

Oran looked at the aircraft flying in front and the thunder on the aircraft.

At this moment, Oran's eyes also showed a different emotion, which was awe of the ancient existence left over from the ancient times.

Oran said softly with an awed voice.

"They are ancient demons."

Gamer didn't know the origin of the puppet demons, the truth about their birth, or the distant stories that spanned the ages.

He had only heard that monsters could turn into demon spirits in the City of Demonic Abyss.

He thought that the person in front of him was a demon spirit transformed from a monster.

"Ancient demon spirit?"

"Isn't it the same as the demon spirit that the monster turned into?"

Oran nodded and told Gamer.

"Except for the demon spirits of this era."

"The demon spirit in the form of a metal doll was not born in this era."

Gamer heard the word era again: "Isn't it born in this era?"

Gamer remembered what Oran said about the previous era.

Could these ancient demon spirits come from the previous era?

So, how long was the last era?

Oran's next words told Gamer the time scale of the previous era.

"They come from 250 million years ago, from the era of the gods."

Oran then talked to Gamel about those ancient secrets. As long as they didn't talk about names that were easily connected to the dream world and great existences, these contents were not dangerous.

"They are existences left over from across eras. The person in front of you may have stood side by side with a certain god, and is inextricably related to the gods."

"They have the blood of the God King flowing through them, to put it another way."

"You can think of them as - descendants of the gods."

Oran's words are not wrong, although his perspective somewhat confuses the three-leaf people with the people of the Demonic Abyss.

However, the people of the Demonic Abyss are also descendants of the King of Wisdom, and are the bloodline left by King Lederiki's two sons.

As a student of Elena, Lei is a third-generation apprentice of the Temple of Truth.

He can even be said to be a contemporary of Asai, the God of Truth and Knowledge, and the Evil God of the Abyss, and has the same inheritance and origin as these two people.

Gamer was so shocked at this time that he didn't know what to say, about the time scale of the previous era, and about the origin and identity of these ancient demon spirits.

All of them destroyed Gamel's cognitive world, leaving nothing behind.

That time exceeded his imagination of the length of time, and the identity of the ancient demon spirit also exceeded the limit of his understanding of the nobility of life.

He could only say in a trembling voice: "Descendant of God?"

Oran nodded: "Gamer, to be precise, is the descendant of the dominant god."

“A fairy once told me that they were born to live in the Garden of the Creator.”

"And God Iva also told me that their ancestors controlled the sky, the earth and the sea."

"It's just that after crossing the length of the era, they lost their previous bodies and identities, and even lost their memories, and became what they are now."

"But the nobility of their status, the secrets and origins behind them."

"It's beyond our imagination."

Oran told Gamer this to tell him that when he enters the Demon Abyss City, he must learn to look at everything in this city with awe.

It was a city that did not belong to this era, a city that concealed countless secrets.

At this time, Gamer looked at the demon spirit driving the aircraft in front of him.

It seemed that he saw another figure behind him.

An ancient life that stood in the previous era and possessed an ancient mysterious form.

But after accompanying the gods through the long time, it turned into this metal body.

"The descendant of the dominant god."

"The people who dwell in the Garden of the Creator."

He could not imagine that a certain race could be with the Creator.

He couldn't even imagine that any existence could span a length of 250 million years and exist until now.
