Chapter 661
In the Garden of Life, Xiadie stood there quietly, while Tibao sat on a stone bench beside her, gently fiddling with a withered flower in her hand. The petals trembled slightly at her fingertips, as if they would turn into powder and float away at any time.
"Lord Tibao, do you still think..." Xiadie finally broke the silence, her voice slightly hesitant, "Will everything be fine tomorrow?" She raised her head slightly and looked into the unknown distance, her eyes full of confusion and doubt.
Tibao stopped what he was doing, slowly raised his head, and a faint smile appeared on his face, "Yeah, Tian would say the same thing."
Xiadie frowned slightly, "Excuse me, but..." She bit her lip, as if hesitating whether to continue, "Lord Tibao, you know very well...that see you tomorrow is just a white lie. I don't want your strength...to be just a forced smile of loneliness." Xiadie took two steps forward.
Tibao stood up and came to the side of the Tian doll.
"Adie, that's not a lie...see you tomorrow...is the greatest prophecy in the world."
"prophecy..?"
Tibao closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and then slowly opened them. "Listen, in this land, at every moment, in every corner, there are people waiting for this prophecy to come true."
“It may be just a few heroes who bring tomorrow to the new world, but the prophecy that leads everyone towards tomorrow belongs to everyone in Omphalos.” As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed to the outside world, as if she could see countless people waiting for tomorrow in the darkness with hope.
"But not everyone has the chance to see tomorrow. How can such words be called prophecy?"
“Because people believe it will happen, people try to believe it will happen.”
“Even though the world is crumbling, everyone is still trying their best to go further, towards tomorrow.” She thought of those people struggling to survive in the ruins. Although they were in trouble, they never gave up their expectations for tomorrow. “That is why there is a saint who can point out the way to tomorrow for everyone. The prophecy of Janusapolis is presented in the form of a “doorway”.”
“Destiny is not a result, but a process. It is not a flower growing at the end of the road.”
“It’s the path that people step out on their own after they pass through the door, heading towards the sea of flowers.”
"So, Die...if there's something you can't figure out, just leave it to tomorrow." Tibao looked at Xiadie with a smile, "There has never been any difference between demigods and humans. The troubles that everyone faces can only be solved by their future selves." She thought of the hardships she had gone through, and the days when she struggled and grew up in difficult situations, "Thinking constantly in the long night, waiting for dawn while thinking, and then taking a step forward at dawn...those of us who stop will leave the night behind us, but those who move forward will not feel fear."
"Because Tirisipius was walking along this path, reciting the prophecy..."
"Calling for the rising sun...and the tomorrow it will bring."
"And finally, everyone will arrive at the silvery shallows, the end of the journey, a brand new world and tomorrow, where there will be no snow, cold, or rain, and no one will be infected by sadness."
"We agreed to meet again at the end of the west wind where flowers are fragrant." Tibao said softly, with tears in her eyes. "See you tomorrow, Tian." She whispered to the air.
At this moment, a soft voice sounded beside me, as if it came from a distant place, yet so clear.
"Well, see you tomorrow!"
Year 3760, Long Night Moon
Tirisipius, the "Saint of Janusapolis", carried the fire on her back and became the demigod of Janus in order to quell the chaos in the world.
She passed through the "Gate of Ten Thousand Paths" and split into a thousand messengers, delivering the oracle of creation to the land of Omphalos.
After a century of hardship
Year 3870, Liberty Month
Mankind’s journey in pursuit of fire has officially begun.
...
On the other side of Ohma, Na Kexia stood alone, with a howling wind sweeping over him, pulling at his clothes wantonly, making rustling sounds.
His eyes were fixed on the distant sky shrouded in haze, and... Kephar.
In the void beside him, the phantom of Sersis was looming.
“Heh…” Na Kexia looked at Kefale and snorted.
"Son of man, are you not waiting for the night to come?"
"Night cannot fall on Ohema."
Sersis chuckled, "That's why it's futile for you to just stand here."
"Hmph... To be honest, I never thought that the famous rational Titan would have this kind of face." As he spoke, he turned his head and looked straight at Sersis.
"Ah... this is all thanks to you. If your soul hadn't been like a hedgehog, how could I have become like this?" There was a hint of complaint in Sersis' voice, "If you could be more flexible, I wouldn't have to face your sharp confrontation all the time, and I would be able to give you advice more freely."
"You are the one who insisted on planting the fire seed in my body... Forget it, just say what you want to say, don't be sarcastic."
"Okay, okay, I just want to remind you that your soul is almost gone. If you don't do anything, I will have to take charge of this body."
Xia raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry? Don't think I don't know, you just want me to help you answer that question - what exactly is "we", right?"
"Just remember it. It's just like an equal exchange."
"Okay, don't worry, the answer is about to come out, and you will have to return your body to me soon."
"Haha...really?" Sersis asked with a hint of doubt.
"Really? I thought that this current state of dying and living at any time would hinder me from getting my body back...but I didn't expect the answer to be right here. Humph, it saved me a lot of effort. I don't even need the ritual sword of the black-robed swordsman." There was a hint of relief in his voice, as if he had accidentally discovered a shortcut.
"That's a really happy event."
At that moment Xia sighed slightly, "It's a pity...I can't do the next experiment myself."
"Has the girl who is always following death made sufficient preparations?" Sirsis leaned forward slightly, seeming to be very concerned about the girl's situation.
At that moment, Xia shook his head slightly, "Don't be impatient, Titan... If we are always on high alert... How can death dare to come to us so easily?"
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded at the edge of the cliff, interrupting the conversation between the two.
"Unfortunately, I have to ask you to slow down on behalf of Ohma."
At that moment, Xia turned around and saw Aglaya, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "Oh... I forgot about you, sorry."
"Children speak without restraint. I will treat this as the unintentional words of a naughty child. Come on, arrogant "Great Performer", it's time to talk about your coincidence with the Titan, Sersis."
"What if I say no?"
"Provocation will only add weight to your death on Tarenton's scales. Things don't have to go that far."
"You dare not kill me. If you extinguish the spark of rationality -" Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, "What else can you use to compete with the Senate?"
"Um...you two, do you mind if I interrupt you for a moment?" Sirsis' voice also interrupted.
At that moment, Xia frowned, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, "I said, don't interrupt me--" Before he finished his voice, he was interrupted by Sersis.
"Ah, I just wanted to ask you, does death really matter to you?"
At that moment Xia was slightly startled, "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, before I injected the fire into your heart..." Sersis's voice became low, "you were already a corpse?"
"When the black tide came and the black-robed swordsman's sword pierced your throat, your soul fire was extinguished."
Then, Sersis projected a terrifying image into the air.
In the picture, Na Kexia's body was lying in a pool of blood, and the black-robed swordsman was squatting beside the body.
"If I hadn't rescued you, you wouldn't be standing here."
The scene changed again, and Sersis stretched out her arm, holding a ball of fire emitting a faint blue light in her hand. The fire seemed to have life and was beating slightly in her palm.
She carefully stuffed the fire into Xia's cracked chest.
When the fire touched the heart, it was as if some mechanism was triggered.
The originally motionless corpse suddenly twitched violently. First the fingers trembled slightly, and then the whole body began to spasm.
At that moment, Xia's eyes suddenly opened, and his pupils instantly turned into a cold blue, like a deep pool in a cold night, without a trace of warmth.
"Look, what a wonderful puppet show." A smile appeared on Cecilia's face. She slowly walked towards Na Kexia who had "come back to life" and held his chin with both hands. The action seemed intimate, but it made Na Kexia feel an unprecedented fear.
"Even the pain nerves have been improved by me. Every near-death experience will generate new memory fragments. You think you are pursuing the truth, but in fact you are just reading my preset database." As she spoke, she gently stroked Na Kexia's cheek.
"No wonder an abnormal soul frequency was detected...it turns out that the so-called scholar is actually a Titan container wrapped in human skin." Aglaya stood aside with a frown.
"This child is now the most perfect experimental subject of Omphalos. Perhaps he can bear the dual powers of "reason" and "death"."
"Shut up!" At that moment Xia finally couldn't help but roared out.
"Oh... why are you angry?" She tilted her head slightly and looked at Na Kexia, as if teasing a child who was having a temper tantrum.
"Maybe what I said just now was just a joke... hehe..."
