4, Creation III(1/2)
After the task is judged to be completed, it will naturally be sent back to the paradise.
——The reason why I haven’t gone back is of course because there is still a zombie alive here. If it dies, the instance will end. This is a very simple question.
The voice fell, and a white light suddenly enveloped the vision.
The world fades and then solidifies again.
Someone was talking not far away, and the noisy voices hit Yu Feichen's ears.
"Back from outside?"
"I'm home."
"Did it go well this time?"
"It didn't go well, and the team was almost wiped out. By God, that damn place looks like the end of the world."
"Few people have seen the end of the world."
"Whatever it is, I'm back - I can still see what the center of the world is like. That's enough."
A burst of satisfied laughter burst out, and even the clown wearing a scarlet cloak on the roadside blew a whistle, threw the red and blue ball high into the golden sky, and laughed loudly: "It's a tower -
—”
He raised his legs and walked forward, intending to cross the place where they were cheering and laughing, but there was a shooting star-like light suddenly flashing around him. After a moment, a burly figure appeared, with the light reflecting on his head, as if he was the captain. After a while, next to him,
Several more meteor lights lit up, and the figures of teammates of different heights, fat and thin appeared here.
"Come, say hello to Brother Yu." The captain called them over.
"Tower of Creation," he said, his tone calm and tired, like a gentle sigh, "I finally saw it again."
In a tacit gesture, they looked up and looked ahead.
Ahead - the light golden sky, the brilliant color pouring down, thick white cirrus clouds gathered into a huge vortex, in the center of the vortex, connected to a snow-white tower.
This is an obelisk, majestic, solemn, and not graceful in its lines. The four edges extend upward, gradually approach, and then suddenly converge into a sharp top at infinity, as sharp as a long sword piercing the sky.
The Tower of Creation, the center of the world.
It is too big and too high, even if one's eyesight is exhausted, one cannot see the whole picture.
The tower stands on the endless Sunset Plaza, as if it is standing on a glacier connecting the end of the world, but the most crystal clear glacier cannot compare to the ground of this square.
It is paved with Huibing Stone from the Eastern Continent, so it is also called the "Huibing Stone Square". There is no gap between the stones, and the sky, flowing clouds, and holy towers are reflected on it.
A slight iridescence is reflected at the edges of things. It is said that these crystal-clear stones were once rare treasures in ancient times and were only used to decorate the tombs of kings.
There are many shining golden balls composed of complex runes floating in the air. When pedestrians pass by the balls, they will make lively sounds.
"Hello, do you want to buy face-squeezing data? What style do you like?"
"Giant Tree Hotel, discounted today, will make you feel like home."
"First time coming to the park? Do you need a guide? Do you need a translation ball? Everyone must have a translation ball."
"The Resurrection Day wishing card is handmade by the great priest Iscadilla and is sold at a discount. Do you want one or two?"
"Shut up, our team is very good."
The noise is everywhere, people are coming and going in Huibingshi Square. Meteors are flashing, some people appear and some disappear. The clown has gone away, and a girl holding a flower stuffs a sunset-colored bouquet into the arms of one of her teammates.
, the laughing crowd gradually dispersed.
"It's great to be back." The captain sighed, "Thank you for your hard work this time. I invite you to go have a drink on Sunset Street. Brother Yu, let's go together."
No one answered.
"...Where's Brother Yu?"
——There is a slender black figure in the front, Yu Feichen is walking away.
"Brother Yu! Brother Yu!" The captain's sleeves were pulled, and he stopped looking at the giant tower and said, "Wait a minute!"
Yu Feichen turned around after hearing this.
The golden sky shed soft light, which was refracted by the bright ice stone ground, making his silhouette appear unreal for a moment.
"You have such a handsome face." Then he saw a young man with silver hair and white robes in the team took a few steps forward to him, pursed his lips and smiled, with curved eyebrows and a gentle voice, and said, "You saved my life.
Ming, I want to thank you."
Looking at the unfamiliar face of this young man, Yu Feichen felt a slight blankness in his mind.
After looking at it for five seconds, he vaguely remembered that this should be Xia Sen.
Xia Sen was a medical officer with little combat effectiveness in the previous zombie world. The place was full of blood and flesh, and everyone was disgraced and had no time to pay attention to anything else, let alone other people's appearance. Moreover, people's appearances in different worlds are very different, even if they return to
In paradise, you can also change your appearance at will. They call this "face pinching".
Xia Sen blinked as if he had been watched for too long.
A little light flickered.
Then Yu Feichen suddenly saw a small dark red mole under the corner of Xia Sen's right eye. It had a strange color, like solidified blood.
He has a slight form of prosopagnosia, and it takes a lot of effort to distinguish the beautiful from the ugly. But he is too lazy to work hard, so he mainly relies on hair color, eye color and voice, or some key features, such as the captain's bald head.
The color flashed before his eyes again.
I've seen this color somewhere, he thought.
Xia Sen said: "Brother Yu? Let's go to the pub together?"
The thought was hard to capture and fleeting. Yu Feichen's eyes left the little mole.
"No need." There was no emotion in Yu Feichen's tone: "I'm leaving."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the Tower of Creation, which was standing still.
"Hey! Brother Yu!" Xia Sen said, "Are you unhappy?"
"No." The dark pupils turned around. Maybe there was too little light on the pupils when pinching the face. The cold and inhuman eyes almost made people shiver when they were glanced at unexpectedly.
He said: "I want to go to the Gate of Eternal Night."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings suddenly became silent.
The few of them stood still and stared at Yu Feichen, as if he was going to some kind of mountain of swords and fire that would eat people without spitting out their bones. A group of people who had only known each other for a short period of time suddenly stared at the atmosphere of separation and death.
After a long while, the captain hesitated and said: "Are you...level enough?"
Yu Feichen said: "Just promoted."
"No, you...you..." The captain stuttered for a while and said, "Don't get carried away."
Yu Feichen glanced at him, as if he couldn't understand why this man asked such a question.
"Goodbye." He turned and left.
A whisper came from behind: "That may be the last time we see each other."
Yu Feichen knew the reason why they said this. As we all know, the Gate of Eternal Night is a place where there is no return.
——He walked into the Tower of Creation.
This tower is a huge building, all white, including the inner walls. After stepping into the relief arch, you feel as if you have entered another world surrounded by high snow-white walls. When you look up, you can only see golden magic at the very top.
Symbols and thick white clouds with no end in sight.
The Resurrection Day once in each era is approaching, and more and more teams are willing to explore the outside world. The Tower of Creation is much busier than in the past, and the first floor is busier than even Huibingshi Square. People are flowing around Yu Feichen
Rushing past, they all have different races, appearances and clothes, either walking from one side to the other, or climbing up the wide spiral staircase built close to the inner wall of the tower. The side of the tower wall where the stairs are against
Above, there are countless cedar doors with gold decorations, and many of the door openings are filled with visitors.
Beyond the crowd, a statue of a god stood quietly in the center of the first floor. It was huge, conspicuous, and the highest point was connected to the clouds and mist. The god's clothing was ancient in form, his face was serious and cold, and his right hand held a suspended stone tablet with inscriptions.
This is Mogrosh, the God of Contract, who controls the first floor of the Tower of Creation. His palace is at the end of the spiral staircase, a place that Yu Feichen is very familiar with.
In the paradise, all activities related to contracts and laws are carried out on this level.
Yu Feichen walked forward and was talking to the two people walking towards him.
"I just came back from Mogrosh. He asked me to have tea and said he was so disappointed in me and that he was very troubled."
"Have you been complained again?"
"After all, it's the nature of employers to be picky."
"If it was just nitpicking, Mogrosh wouldn't say 'I'm troubled'."
"There are too many things in the world that can trouble Mogrosh," the man burst into laughter after saying this. "When I entered, Mogrosh was handling a complaint against Xiaoyu. You should
Look at his expression, it's like someone is complaining that his son slept with someone else's wife."
At this time, they happened to walk across from Yu Feichen, and their eyes met.
"..."
"..."
The two men, one pulling the other, quickly disappeared through a magic staircase door.
