"There is no need to criticize my choice. How can I see the future seven hundred years ago? I just chose the path that I think is the most appropriate in that era."

Crowrance pointed to the surrounding books: "The books here are almost all written by the top magicians and scholars of various countries in that era. They themselves have long been annihilated in the long river of time, and only these thoughts are left. It shines, even so, as future generations, you may laugh at their thoughts and treasured knowledge when you read it, and feel disdainful."

"The times are different." Clorence's words were full of vicissitudes.

"Perhaps in your current era, magic has reached the eighth or ninth level, and some people have even peeped into the secrets above the level, and found another measure of magic power to promote it, so you can stand from the perspective of latecomers I lament how stupid the choices of the predecessors are. "If it were me, there must be a better solution..." Such words are full of arrogance, but for us trapped in that era, we can't see more possibilities, and There is no more choice, every attempt by a magician who breaks through himself to the end is commendable... You can call my struggle bloody and evil, but I don't think you, a latecomer, are saying that correct."

Sera smiled and said, "Do you think I am refuting you in an arrogant tone from the standpoint of a latecomer? Wrong, I just sigh that you, as one of the strongest magicians of that era, have such a ridiculous definition of 'eternity' And feel helpless.”

Clorence was full of death, and the magic power in her body quickly fell to the level that Sierra could understand and confirm her strength. So she stepped forward with confidence and boldly, staring at the light that was still beating in Clorence's gray eyes .

"What do you mean by eternity?"

After pondering for a while, Clorence replied: "Get out of the body, escape decay, be immortal, explore the mystery of magic power, and turn your consciousness into a god."

Sela pouted contemptuously.

Clarence asked: "You seem to think I'm wrong, but eternity has its own definition."

"I'm just laughing at you for taking the concept of gods very seriously. It seems that this is also one of the reasons why your fragments claim to be gods. You and I have never seen gods. Why can you be sure that gods can obtain eternity and escape?" Decay? Have you discovered that you are constantly complicating a definition, and gradually making your purpose an unchasable concept.”

"Lu Yu."

Sera's sudden roll call made Lu Yu stunned.

"Clorence, this is a magician who has just started, only at the third level. Lulu and I have never explained to him why magicians like to incorporate so many meanings into the word 'decay', how about How about we try it?"

"What do you want to try?" asked Clarence.

"How does a person who has only heard a few words from us think about eternity and decay?" Sera said, "In this way, you won't feel that I am superior by relying on my knowledge of an era ahead of you. A magician who started from the origin , fair enough."

"Why do you want to convince me?" Clorence asked, "I'm going to die, and everything here belongs to you. Wouldn't it be nice for me to disappear with that broken dream?"

"Are you scared?" Sera suddenly raised the volume, "Persuasion, no, I want to make you sober, I want you to understand your sins! Why do you think I came here, why did I kill you? Because your obsession has killed countless people!"

"How many undead were trapped in your formation and sealed in the warehouse during this long reincarnation?"

"Your fragments have deviated from the original track a little bit during the reincarnation. After they wake up, they will even go to the outside world to abduct 'materials'. The countless doll materials in this castle are the flesh and blood of innocent people. What do you think you are so high up?" That's right, don't you feel that you are too indifferent, magician, for your eternity, how many people's lives have you sacrificed!"

"Listen to your own words, 'The attempts of the magician towards the end are commendable', 'You can say that the process of my struggle was bloody and evil', what do you take human life for, it is for your reincarnation to continue firewood!"

Clorence laughed loudly: "You want me to die with guilt? The fragments plus myself have existed for nearly a thousand years. How could the ideals of a thousand years be shattered because of your few words?"

"Whether it's God's Chosen or Saintess, you are just a puppet of the church who uses non-existent things to gain trust and interests. As I said before, there are many people in this world who are dirtier than me. You have seen those who Is it a country where people are enslaved to death? Have you ever questioned why some people are born rich and powerful, and some people are born with ugly scars and work on a piece of land to death? Why do some people have rich clothes and good food, and travel with horses? There is no shortage of everything, but some people can only dig food from the soil, and their diseases are difficult to cure? Why are we all human, but in times of great disasters and famines, some people can eat meat and soup in the house, and some people can only eat by changing seeds, Eat tree bark, eat soil. Why can you accuse me of reincarnation and cannibalism with peace of mind, just because I am about to die, so you can stand on the moral high ground and criticize me?"

"Sera, I appreciate your strength. Maybe you are really angry for those who died. I can also cater to your anger and false confession, but don't really think that I will approve of your rhetoric. We are different. people."

Sera was indifferent, and continued to ask: "Then would you like to try it?"

Clorence glanced at Lu Yu.

"Alright, in the last time of my existence in this world, I will play this last game with the two of you... Do you ask, or should I ask?"

"You, in this way you will be convinced."

Clorence stood up, and Sera saw him staggering and stepped forward to help him.

Clorence cast a sidelong glance at Serra, sighed, but said nothing.

"Lu Yu, what do you think of eternity?"

This kind of philosophical question can be refuted in any way, after all, who has really achieved eternity?

Lu Yu thought for a while and decided to answer this question from another angle.

"Have you ever used a magic crystal?"

Clarence was stunned. After thinking for a while, he realized that such a question seemed unlikely to be buried, so he nodded.

"We assume that there is a magic crystal that contains powerful magic power. If we use up its magic power in one go, we will get an empty crystal. At this time, we only need to place the empty crystal shell and wait for a long time Over time, magic power will naturally fill the inside of the crystal."

Lu Yu paused at this point, and then said, "Have you ever wondered why magic power is filled with magic crystals?"

"It's just the reason why water flows downhill," Clarence replied.

"Yes, the vacant crystals will eventually be infiltrated by the magic power that exists in this world, so let's continue to assume that the magic power in this world is limited, it is a kind of 'resource' that will disappear one day, then when all the magic power disappears Afterwards, will the crystal still be filled?"

"Of course not." Clorence frowned. He didn't know why Lu Yu asked these questions that children could understand, but the other party looked serious, and he didn't seem to be making fun of himself.

"So, in fact, the magic power will spontaneously transfer from the filled place to the unfilled place, and infiltrate. This process is constantly happening, and in the case of limited magic power, this process will end when the magic power is exhausted... We boldly assume that at this moment, the magic power of the whole world has been exhausted, so the road of magic will..."

"The end?"

"Correct." Lu Yu said, "Magic will come to a standstill, because there is no longer any way to verify the theory of magic power and magic."

"Please replace the magic power I said with the energy that everything needs to move, and repeat what I said. Imagine a world that has completely lost all energy, and all objects have stopped moving." Lu Yu said, "I think this is more in line with my impression of eternity."

Clorence frowned. He was thinking hard, the wifi signal on his forehead was gradually full, and his sweat was increasing.

Sierra on the side was thinking in a daze, and then looked at Lu Yu in surprise.

Seeing Clorence's distorted expression, Lu Yu only hated himself for having a poor memory. He couldn't memorize the theory of entropy, so that the metaphors were not very accurate and the descriptions were somewhat wrong, but it seemed that Clorence still understood. .

Clorence's understanding of eternity is that he lives forever and stands shoulder to shoulder with the world. The theory of his era never mentioned the end of the world. Looking at Serra, it seems that this era has never existed. After all, this world is very young. After several consecutive magical advances, everything seems to be thriving, so no one will associate the word eternity with a situation where matter stops moving.

Lu Yu's statement completely broke Clorence's expectation and persistence for eternity. His closed logic was blown away by Lu Yu's rough viewpoint, and gaps appeared in his unbreakable belief.

Although Lu Yu knew that the laws might not apply in different worlds, Clorence obviously didn't know that. He covered his head with his hands and his expression was extremely painful.

Some things are like this, if you can't figure it out or get a half-knowledgeable conclusion, it is easy to collapse the worldview that has been established with difficulty.

Clorence couldn't accept that the end of eternity was a cold world that didn't even change, and he couldn't accept that eternity was a mirror image. He looked at Lu Yu fiercely, and stretched out his wrinkled hands.

Sera was about to stop it, but Clorence withdrew his hand, and he sat on the ground slumped like an old child.

"That's your eternity...not mine."

Although Clorence has been shaken, he is unwilling to admit the existence of the possibility described by Lu Yu, so he can only cover up his inner fluctuations and forcefully grit his teeth.

"Good job," Sierra praised in the chat room.

"Standing on the shoulders of giants is nothing more than praiseworthy." Lu Yu said modestly.

"Do you still want to ask about decay?" Sera stared at Clarence with a smile.

Fear flashed across Clorence's eyes, a cold world had already made his hair stand on end, and he trembled at the thought of how terrible the end of his ideal would be.

Clorence coughed and kept waving his hands: "I...I..."

The soul that was shattered and merged into Clorence's body floated out from above his head.

That was the soul of the young man. The moment he flew out, he turned into countless light particles and disappeared above the dome.

Sera smiled brightly, that indifferent soul who didn't care about human life, only fanaticism for knowledge, and paranoid about eternity completely disappeared in this world.

Clorence's eyes were blurred. After a long time, he looked at Sera and muttered, "Thank you..."

At this time, Lu Yu also knew the reason why Sera was so chattering to find Clorence to debate the scriptures. At the last moment of his life, the souls in Clorence's body began to loosen, and they separated their own souls for a long time, making these souls die when death came. Always want to dominate the body, and make a final attempt to continue its own existence.

Although they defeated Clarence, they relied on the help of the kindest side of Clarence's heart, who were reluctant to part with the original body and the No. 6 warehouse.

Once other souls take the dominant position, it is very likely that when Clorence's body decays, the Book of Twilight will be activated, bringing an unimaginable disaster to this place, and they will have no escape at that time.

Sera's voice was not as rough as before, but very soft: "You who imagined the world to be extremely cold, and hoped to establish reincarnation to escape suffering and death, have disappeared."

There was a smile on Clorence's face: "But he is also me. If I hadn't had such an obsession, it would not have become so powerful, occupying the body, and possessing everything about me."

"Longing for knowledge, longing for power, hoping for immortality, hoping to become a god and be worshiped by thousands of people... These desires have accumulated over time, and gradually become a demon that I can never get rid of... I can no longer appreciate beautiful things, I can't feel the kindness and warmth of others, I have gone too far, and I have done too many mistakes..."

"When I was young...it wasn't like this."

Clorence wailed loudly. This legendary puppeteer who was about to die was like a child, releasing the self that had been suppressed in countless reincarnations.

Crying for the self who was swallowed up by time and once admired this world with passion.

I went too far, but I forgot what I wanted when I first became a puppeteer. Even before I died, I couldn’t let my true self have a body, but I was suppressed by obsession, and I snatched it away inadvertently. Control.

With tears streaming down his face, Clorence squeezed out an ugly smile, "Can I really be considered an excellent puppeteer?"

Sera patted Clorence on the shoulder, comforting this legend who could no longer repent and gradually stepped into death.

"Actually, people who come to the Theocracy to repent just hope for psychological comfort. They don't necessarily believe that repentance is useful, but it can make him feel better..."

"Repent, for those who died in vain."
