Lord of the Witches

Stana, who was originally struggling fiercely in the tentacles, stopped immediately after facing Tang Qi. She just twisted her body and found a more comfortable position before she opened her mouth to dispel the weird atmosphere.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"Your new image is very shining, but there is a problem. If a human like me... has a child with you, will the child be a little tentacle monster or a human?"

"But the boat shaking is really exciting, especially when my mother goddess is watching. I'll try another place next time."

As soon as Stana opened her mouth, Tang Qi knew that she was still the same Stana who had no taboos.

They are all goddesses at the level of powerful gods, and their personalities have not changed at all.

A few words reminded Tang Qi of the candlelight dinner that Stana specially organized when they were separated in Mercer City.

With his memory revived, Tang Qi also recalled some details. If he had relaxed a little that night, he might have been able to stay the night.

Of course, if Tang Qi wanted to do it now, there would be no problem.

Among the powers He possesses is "true love", and Stana has never concealed her thoughts in this regard.

It’s just that the timing is really wrong and the audience is too large.

The most important thing is that Tang Qi did not come here in his true form. He went to great lengths to send his avatar to this point in time, not just to reconnect with Stana.

Tang Qi gently placed the beautiful and enchanting new goddess of light beside him, then raised his head and looked forward.

Here, it seems to be a world of absolute silence and nothingness.

In addition to the ship of fools with its swaying lights, there is also a humanoid entity that "fills" the world ahead.

His size, appearance, divine aura... everything is uncertain, or it includes everything.

When He is in this world, He fills this place and contains it.

When He enters the infinite mystery, He will have the same power.

Tang Qi had seen the divine bodies of the "Original Mother" and the "Mother Goddess of Life", and had also had a vague glimpse of the bodies of the Earth Mother Goddess and the Insect Mother Goddess... But at this time, Tang Qi was convinced that none of the above mother goddesses could compete with the ones ahead. The humanoid entity incarnated by Great Love competes for the title of Mother.

Including high-level divine entities such as Tang Qi and Yugo Worm, any living body will have the same perception when observing "him".

"He is the mother."

This knowledge is softly but inextricably embedded into the depths of the souls of all living beings.

The "mother" here refers to the incarnation of an inclusive and benevolent concept. She regards all living beings as children, and all living beings respond to the concept of mother.

"Merciful Mother Goddess!"

At the same time, Tang Qi, Stana and the foul-mouthed Yogurt Worm simultaneously expressed their respect to the humanoid entity.

Since there was not enough time, Tang Qi did not hide the doubts deep in his heart. Since the Mother Goddess was willing to see him, she obviously had something to say to her.

Tang Qi thought for half a second and asked directly: "Is Guangming's madness related to Na Wuming...?"

"It's related, but the real responsibility lies with me."

In the quiet void, a breeze blew.

In the wind, there is the gentle voice of the Mother Goddess.

The Mother Goddess did not explain what the specific responsibilities were, and Tang Qi did not ask any more questions.

After pondering for a moment, Tang Qi asked unexpectedly and directly: "Do you know the true purpose of the Wuxian Sage?"

"call"

It is still the gentle wind that brings the mother goddess's response.

"I know."

This answer made Tang Qi's eyes light up, looking forward to the secret being revealed.

But the answer that continued to penetrate Tang Qi's ears the next moment was extremely horrifying.

"If it is the ultimate goal, then He and His partners, me, and those respectable sages... all of our existences may have the same goal, but each of us has chosen different means. "

"Boom"

Tang Qi's mind was like thunder roaring.

The Merciless Sage and his companions...do these ancient beings have the same goal? Even the sages?

"In other words, the Mercyless Sage does not hate me. The reason why he set up a dead end that will definitely erase me is just to achieve that ultimate goal. I may be a roadblock that blocks his plan."

"My existence will prevent the Mercy Sage and his companions from completing that goal, so he allowed the Lord of Light to accept the umbilical cord, so that I cannot peek into the changes that have taken place in the Lord of Light."

"According to what the Goddess of Resentment said, the Mercy Sage came to the Mysterious Boundless a long time ago. He even watched the confrontation between me and 'Ms. Destiny'... but he never made any move. Until now, the hatred of the Lord of Light has It was magnified infinitely, causing Him to go crazy and commit matricide."

"No, it must be more than 'light', this is just a sign."

"Sage Wu Ming and his companions must have started their plans a long time ago. There are many events similar to 'the Lord of Light going crazy' happening in the boundless mystery at this moment, but these events have all been concealed, even my Even the omniscient beings cannot understand it, and the other gods and spirits must also be blinded from information perception.”

"How they did it is more bizarre and impossible than the obstruction of fate."

A large number of thoughts came out. When Tang Qi was confused, he immediately remembered the [Cicada's Wings in the Sky] that he had spied not long ago.

Until the "Eye of Origin" deep in Tang Qi's soul surpasses the eyes owned by the Origin Protoss, he will also be unable to see through the reality of the "wings" shrouding the Kingdom of Light.

After knowing part of the truth, Tang Qi did not hide it and asked directly:

"Merciful Mother Goddess, what is the ultimate goal that you, and the sages, want to achieve?"

"call"

Tang Qi asked the question but did not get an answer immediately.

Just a wisp of wind that seemed to have infinite power blew over again, pushing the weird and exquisite sailless ship of fools under Tang Qi to sail forward.

In the wind, the voice of the Mother Goddess was extremely gentle.

He seemed to be suffering from endless fatigue, but still maintained everything he should have as a mother.

"Technically speaking, I've never actually tried to achieve that goal, it would be too difficult."

"Even if I ascend to the 'Supreme Divinity', I cannot change the final outcome."

"You must be curious as to why I chose to give up. The answer is right here."

"What I have done, what I have been doing for several epochs, has never been shown to other beings, and I cannot show it to other beings."

"It's okay now. In addition to me, you will also know them and see them."

The voice of the Mother Goddess was very calm, but the three people on the boat could hear the compassion, kindness and love of the Mother Goddess from every word.

He gave up his ascension to the supreme divinity and continued to do the same thing for several epochs?

Who are they?

There is some kind of life form in the boundless mystery, and only the Mother Goddess knows about it?

When many doubts emerged, Tang Qi suddenly felt the Ship of Fools bumping slightly.

The bow of the ship seemed to have broken through some kind of barrier, and a layer of phosphorescence washed over it.

In the void ahead, the almost real world began to unfold one after another:

The first thing that emerged was a "world" that amazed the three people on board. This world was magnificent and created by a splendid technological civilization.

This civilization has almost turned the universe into an amusement park. There are many incredible intelligent creations across the galaxy. Their buildings and other sights show that this civilization has extremely high wisdom and a higher moral level.

It seems that this is the ideal state of technological civilization.

No matter how picky you are, you cannot criticize this civilization and would rather integrate into it.

Whether it is Tang Qi or Yogurt Worm, they have seen more than hundreds of millions of civilizations, but not many are as outstanding as the one in front of them.

When they are in it, they can see the members of the civilization and the diverse races very clearly, and they can even reach out and touch any building of the civilization.

It was incredibly real, as if they were really three travelers who mistakenly entered the world dominated by this civilization.

But just when they were about to make a sound of praise, an accident happened.

At some point, this civilization...disappeared.

On the Ship of Fools, Tang Qi, Yogurt Worm and Stana were all surprised at the same time.

Tang Qi was surprised not that civilization disappeared, but the way it disappeared.

The universe collapses?

Obliterated by some high-level divine entity?

Trapped in some mysterious phenomenon?

No, neither.

Tang Qi was in it and could see clearly that the civilization had disappeared.

"Disappear" in the true sense, a complete disappearance.

If it is a war, a disaster, or some kind of high-level dimensionality reduction and obliteration... No matter what kind, with the level of development of civilization, there is at least a chance to struggle and resist. Even if it is really destroyed, it will still be destroyed in the boundless mystery. leaving some traces.

But no, they disappeared, not even a wisp of smoke was left.

"Even if I hold the power of dreams and can break the boundary between reality and fantasy with my thoughts, it is impossible for me to do this."

"I can erase a civilization or a cosmic plane, but no matter how I erase it, it will leave traces, such as some plane remnants, or some remaining creations..."

"Existences at the highest level of divinity can be erased more cleanly, such as the Supreme Deer God, who can evaporate the universe plane into a ball of gas with just one thought, but it may still leave traces such as external records, will to survive, etc."

"But in that scene just now, there was really nothing left."

"That civilization just disappeared, as if it never existed?"

"call"

When the three of them were in doubt, the gentle wind carried the voice of the Mother Goddess at this moment.

He did not hide his sorrow, the compassion born from the depths of his soul, the unstoppable empathy.

"They are the Belamon civilization. They were born in the Age of Ignorance. They are born with extremely high intelligence and a kind self that far exceeds other races. It only took them tens of thousands of years to enter the prosperous period and soon dominated the plane of the universe where they are located. , and built it into an extremely beautiful place.”

"The kingdoms of many gods cannot be compared with their world. Some of their members are invited by the gods to build palaces or provide key advice to some civilizations."

"They have the power to kill gods, but they have never done so. They just maintain their kind selves and lend a helping hand to many weak and mysterious beings in the boundless mystery."

"But at some point, a moment that wasn't strange or scary, they disappeared."

"The disappearance of the conceptual level, themselves, and all the creations, information and even memories related to them, or what else... all disappeared, except me, the boundless mystery, no one knows them, even though they really existed For a long time, it shone brightly."

"If there is the most cruel punishment in The Expanse, I must admit that this is indeed it."
