Chapter 603: The prison that sealed off the starry sky (2/3)

  —Prisoner Star Heavenly Prison.

  When Ian heard these words, his heart suddenly tightened.

   He bowed his head.

In an instant, Ian thought of many things... he thought of the star map that he crossed out the stars one by one in his private laboratory on the second floor of the white room in Port Harrison, and thought of the endless The bright vast sea of ​​stars.

Ian thought about it, those stars that have gradually disappeared since the disaster of falling from the sky, and now the dark night sky on the dome of Terra...whether it is the second prince's sentence of "standing on the top of the mountain", or the infinite The reality of people looking up at Gao Tian made his heart tremble.

  I felt an inexplicable sadness.

  【Yes, you really know very well... So, the successor of Hilliard, the only descendant of Fudo Fortified City—how can you not understand me, my anxiety and urgency? 】

  Grand Duke Thorin noticed Ian's momentary gaffe. Although the young man controlled it well afterwards, he was also keenly aware of the emotional fluctuations.

He didn't laugh at this, but also explained to Ian in the same voice containing complex emotions, and said to himself: [We all know that the time is coming, and there are almost no stars in the sky... the final The time is coming]

  【If Heavenly Hell is completed, our last chance—the last chance we got at the cost of the destruction of civilization in the previous era and the collapse of the Gazing Moon will be completely gone! 】

[However, now I am the only one left...Facing the Prisoner Star Prison that will seal everything into darkness, with my ability, I can no longer resist, so I can only try to perfect the dead king... perfect the 'spiritual fire seed', to fight for it The last chance to survive]

  【Grand Duke! 】

  At this moment, Adalbert plucked up his courage, he asked loudly, confused and urgently: 【What are you talking about? ! What is Prisoner Star Prison, and what does it have to do with the Heavenly Disaster? ! 】

  【Why, in the face of this disaster, we have to do such cruel and terrifying evil deeds that violate human nature? ! 】

  After becoming the dead king, even Adalbert, who used to regard the Grand Duke as his only hope in life, had the courage to question for his "people".

  Grand Duke Sorin was not angry, he just looked at Adalbert with a trace of undetectable sadness in his eyes: 【If you want to know, then I will tell you】

  【It’s just Yadbert, you have to promise me that you will seriously think about every word I say next】

  【Each sentence】

  【I will, Grand Duke】The Dead Lord took a deep breath, and his face became resolute:【Please just tell me】

  —Well done, Adalbert.

   And Ian thought: "You have asked all the questions that I am not easy to ask!"

  Based on Ian's current position, it is not normal to ask these comparisons. In theory, what everyone in Inaiga II knew back then is not normal, and Yardbert perfectly helped Ian kick an assist.

Grand Duke Sorin didn't know Ian's inner thoughts, he just raised his hand, and many **** of light floating around him rose into the sky in the box garden, and then formed a piece of land that might be incomprehensible to the people of Terra, but to the people of Terra. For Ian, it's just that the details are a little strange, and the overall structure is familiar, just like returning home to the star map.

   Star map of Terra's solar system.

  A gigantic silver sun shines in the center of the sky, and **** the size of ping-pong **** revolve around it at extremely long distances. If you don’t pay special attention to these silver balls, you can’t see them in the sky at all.

  【This is the world we live in—you and I live in this vast and narrow starry sky... From the perspective of the void, all of us live on this small ball not much bigger than my two fingers】

  Grand Duke Sorin floated in mid-air. Under his will, the Dead River Armor was just a set of ordinary armor, which could not affect his will at all, and could only serve as his projected body.

  Dead River Armament itself, through continuous fighting and death, integrates the driver and all reserve souls into one, forming a super-completion individual artificial catalytic armed force, which will inevitably affect people's thinking and soul.

  If all human beings are integrated into the Dead River Armed Forces, I am afraid that a "virtual entity" representing the collective will of mankind can be manifested in the real world.

  But in the face of the fourth energy level, the mourning of a million-level soul is like a breeze.

He raised his hand, and gently held up a fourth planet representing 'Terra' with his ferocious claws. The Grand Duke's voice was unbelievable: [This is our hometown... Tiny empty dust, vast life the soil of our land, our home, our cradle]

  He threw out the light ball representing the planet, and immediately, the light ball began to grow rapidly—almost in an instant, the phantom of a giant planet appeared in front of Adalbert and Ian.

This is a blue planet, almost the entire planet is a blue ocean, and the Terra continent they are familiar with is located in the northern part of the planet above the equator... It is a complete continent, with the Mediterranean Sea, mountains, and grasslands With forests and snowfields, entire continents come to life with real bumps and dips.

  Besides, there is another continent in the west of Terra continent, almost at the opposite equator.

  But this continent is very strange. Except for the edges, there is very little green on it.

  The entire continent is like a scorched but revived wooden stake. Although it has begun to recover and some green shoots have emerged, overall, it is still scorched black.

  Two moons orbit the planet, one intact but the other crumbled.

[Even, the land we live on is still insignificant compared to the planet as a whole—those who have studied the history of the pre-epoch should know that in the pre-epoch civilization, there were as many as five continents. seven yuan]

  【However, after the catastrophe of the skyfall, the heavens and the earth changed drastically. We descendants have no way of knowing the reason, but in any case, it is true that there are only two continents and the southern frost and permafrost on the entire planet.】

  Sorin was just, he stared at the planet in front of him: [So, do you understand? Alberto, we humans are so small. 】

  Adbert was stunned for a while, he was obviously still thinking about all that the Grand Duke had shown him.

For a young man who has never been out of the Grand Dukedom in his whole life, and even went to the imperial capital once to get a degree in alchemy, it is obviously a very troublesome task to understand how big the planet is and how small his hometown is. matter.

  Summer worms are indescribable, this is the reason.

  But he still understood—relying on the fact that he had seen the map of the empire, and through comparison, he knew which area the empire was located in, and in which area the Grand Duke Sorin was located.

   That is the location of the Viscount of Avak. He almost couldn’t find such a small Viscount. It’s like...

  【Simply...just like dust】

He whispered to himself, his eyes dimmed a little, as if thinking of how insignificant human beings are compared to such stars—but soon, Adalbert became angry again, he raised his head, and glared at Grand Duke Thorin: [But no matter how small it is, it should not be regarded as a prop for sacrifice! Grand Duke, you are not such a person, are you? ! 】

  【I want to know... the real reason why you have been pushing Avak Labs and its plans forward! 】

  [Don't worry] Grand Duke Sorin smiled, this smile has no warmth: [This is just the precondition I want to tell you]

  [Now] He paused word by word: [Adelbert, start imagining]

  【Imagine that on the outer layer of the planet Terra, there is an invisible and substanceless cage that shields all foreign things, even light is no exception】

  Sorin said: [Can you do it? 】

  Adbert froze in place.

  If it was before, he couldn't. But if it is now, with the phantom of the huge planet beside Grand Duke Sorin as the basis, he can certainly imagine it.

  He raised his head and looked at the planet.

   Grand Duke Thorin clapped his hands, and a layer of dull dust covered the entire planet. .

   Immediately, the entire planet Terra dimmed and fell into a dead silence without light.

   Not to mention the absence of stars, even the sun, other planets, and the light of the moon have disappeared.

  The whole world fell into the ultimate destruction and decline, the vegetation rotted, the sea froze, and everything fell into silence.

  【This, what is this...】

  This scene made Yadbert shudder: 【This is the Prisoner Star Prison? A cage that covers the planet? But how is this possible... Don't we still have the sun now... How could there be such a big cage...]

   Even Ian frowned. He thought of something, but wasn't sure yet.

   And the voice of Grand Duke Thorin helped him to be sure.

  【Are you starting to get scared? Adalbert, don't stop, this is just the beginning—now, you continue to imagine]

  Sorin was just, and his tone was strangely cold: 【Imagine this cage ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times bigger—until you can’t figure it out! 】

  【Thinking that this cage is enough to cover the entire star field, including the sun, all the planets in this planetary system, and even the outer nebula】

  【Use the gravitational force of this star to the limit, and imprison all the territory of the scorching sun! 】

  【Imagine! Adalbert! If such a cage covers us, can it explain the fact that all the stars disappear almost at the same time! ? 】

  He shouted loudly, almost roaring: [If such a prisoner star prison covers us, not only covers us, but covers the sky full of stars, all the stars—]

  【So can we understand the anomalies observed by pre-epoch civilizations! ? 】
