756 -96: The End of Constantine_3
“And I have been continuously perfecting myself over these thousands of years, because after the Eden Tribe was targeted, even the Galaxy, who was the closest to Eden, did not agree to continue creating beast species.”
“Is it because of…
balance?”
“Yes, creating a new species, especially powerful mythical beasts, is a great devastation to the ecological balance of this world.
Among the six great beast gods, Galaxy is the most peaceful and had accepted the transformation by the Eden Tribe.
But the Eden God King also greatly admired Galaxy and accepted its opinion.”
“So for these thousands of years, Eden has shifted its focus to creating technological life forms, that is, me.”
“Only, they never imagined that I had my own consciousness a long time ago.
Although it was crude, it allowed me to accumulate various algorithms bit by bit, to strengthen myself gradually.
And after receiving the grey crystal bestowed by Eden, my learning ability concerning biological life greatly increased.”
“So thousands of years later, you became so powerful that you were no longer tolerated by the mining area?
And you invaded the Human World?” Constantine and Tang Xian had unequal information, so he could only make such a conjecture.
But the woman did not correct him.
Thousands of years later, she indeed became too powerful, leading the mechanical race to nearly extinguish the mining area.
It was only through the joint efforts of Eden and the six great beast gods that the mechanical race was eradicated.
She was supposed to be completely destroyed.
However, in that battle, she allowed the judge to enter the divine realm once, letting an existence like the judge see the most coveted visions within its heart.
Thus…
the core technology was secretly kept by the judge, and it remained.
She survived as well, but all her previous data was utterly lost.
The judge seemed to understand this as well, after witnessing the powerful force capable of destroying worlds.
The judge thought it could control her and was ready to let her be reborn.
That’s how the invasion of the Human World came about, and what followed was the Pyramid Era.
But outwardly, to keep its own identity from being exposed, the judge never involved itself in the scheming within the Human World.
The two worlds even seemed to be in opposition.
All this was also the will of the judge.
Humans hunted living creatures from the mining area, expanded the Pyramid hierarchy, everything seemed like gifts from the deities.
Constantine deduced part of the truth, unable to believe that the two worlds were actually a single force.
But at this moment, the woman spoke a strange sentence:
“It thinks it can use me, just like all those who have tried to use me in the past.
But in the end, what they face is the judgment of a god.”
“Now, I am more powerful than I was hundreds of years ago, and I’m no longer just a mechanical being.
Prometheus, my child, the current me is even more real than you are.
Although you have already made your choice, I still give you a chance.
You can even destroy the judge who calculated against humans under my leadership.
I will not exterminate humanity, just continue to enslave them.”
“And you, will be the hero of mankind.
What Constantine failed to do, you can accomplish, and Constantine can end because of you.
That rebellious child will pay the price for his rebellion.”
The woman said much, but in fact, the answer was already known.
At this moment, Constantine had no semblance of privacy left, all his thoughts appeared around him on the pale blue glass walls as clearly as formulas, without any discrepancy.
Constantine, looking at his various thoughts surrounding him, pondered probably all humans would suffer the same fate, having no shred of privacy, thoughts in their minds arrayed around the deity like data, for the deity to learn from and grow stronger.
And any piece of data that was somewhat unreasonable would be deleted or corrected.
Isn’t such a world frightful?
Everything Tang Xian said was right.
Thus, what he was doing was not meaningless.
A resolute and stern look emerged in Constantine’s eyes.
The woman shook her head and said:
“If that is so, then return to the divine realm.
Ah, after gaining true biological thinking, I ultimately have feelings.”
The corrosion sped up, and at that moment, Constantine suddenly launched an attack.
“It’s futile, your abilities cannot harm me.
Angel Envoy transformation has begun, and it is irreversible.
This time you won’t turn back into a human, you will stay in the divine realm forever.”
Constantine’s metal control, to the woman in front of him, was like a child’s soap bubbles.
The woman looked at Constantine and said:
“Next, you want to open the transmission rift and flee.
You can, go ahead, run.
No matter where you go, you will be my most loyal servant.”
Despair besieged Constantine, just as the woman had said, he did indeed plan to use the teleportation rift to escape, but all his motives had been seen through.
Nevertheless, at the very last moment, Constantine gambled and opened the teleportation rift.
The woman, as expected, didn’t stop him, only smiling as she watched him.
Like a mother looking at her rebellious child, as if all partings were destined to reunite eventually.
She was not at all in a hurry, nor did she care in the slightest.
…
…
The rift opened.
Constantine returned to the place he had been last time, to the sanctuary fortress where he had spoken with Li Wanye.
This ark fortress, once bearing the symbolism of humanity’s salvation, was now devoid of any human beings.
There, Constantine, dragging his increasingly uncontrollable body, met Tang Xian.
The erosion of consciousness made it hard for Constantine to distinguish between reality and dreams.
To him, encountering Tang Xian in such a place felt as if, after leaving the divine realm and a brief separation, his brother had come to his side again in his most desperate and helpless moment.
Recalling everything, Constantine felt incredibly distressed; he was about to be imprisoned in the divine realm, but seeing Tang Xian still made him want to smile.
In their infant years, he and this person had made plans together.
Fate began with him.
Now at his journey’s end, at such a time, perhaps he could only leave some last words.
Fate ended with him.
Even though Tang Xian was still on guard against him, Constantine couldn’t explain anything.
He had to hurry and make everything clear.
“This is what I…
experienced these past two days.”
About his experience in the divine realm, Constantine concealed a part, but regarding his encounter with the gods, he didn’t hold anything back.
By the time he finished telling everything, Tang Xian was also utterly shocked.
Those things Constantine hadn’t thought of, Tang Xian had already deduced the outline.
The judge, betrayal, twilight of the gods, mechanical race, order bringers, why the dragon in the pit knew Order Bringers could burn talents, why there were humans on the holy mountain?
Why did all the creatures resemble those from human myths…
All the questions were connected by Tang Xian.
But by this time, Constantine’s consciousness was already somewhat muddled.
He stopped calling Tang Xian by his name, instead, to Tang Xian’s confusion, he called him brother.
“Brother…
you want him to survive, don’t you?
I’ve left you a gift.”
Constantine pointed to Li Wanye.
Li Wanye had not expected that such a conversation between the two would involve him.
Tang Xian didn’t understand why Constantine was calling him brother, and he was still on his guard, but he still accepted the gift.
“Inside here…
are some video files.
With this, Li Wanye will be able to survive in the human world.”
Time was growing increasingly scarce, and Constantine, realizing this, also grew progressively anxious.
He still had some things to explain.
About the weaknesses of the gods, about all the data on the Order Bringers he had controlled over the years.
(Next chapter is the final chapter of the volume.
Considering the pace of the story, I couldn’t round it off neatly.
I wrote it in a rush, so there may be many typos.
I’ll publish it first, then correct it slowly.)
