Chapter 459 This is a patch

(In order to avoid misunderstanding, I would like to remind you that after reading this, you may feel that the world view is a little too big to collapse. Actually, don’t worry. To be precise, the world view has not been enlarged. These things are prepared for the ending. Before the ending comes, the story It will be steadily advanced based on the original plot, and these things will not affect the subsequent plot development.)

(These things are more like a patch, which will only be shown at the end to make the ending more complete. As for before the ending, you can actually treat these things as not existing, because it will not affect anything, it is just preparation for the ending. a patch.)

(So, you don’t have to worry about plot jumps, or combat power jumps, etc. The plot is still the same as before. The plot of Sanyuan tends to collapse and advances normally. It will not suddenly jump to other places, nor will it suddenly increase to other places. level.)

(Don’t worry about combat power. The Herrscher is still awesome, and Kevin is still the big daddy. No matter how awesome he is, you still can’t beat him (?????))

003...

Xilin thought about many people, many, many situations, but she never expected that the person on the other side of this chess and card game would introduce herself like this.

"003, the forerunner 003, the forerunner of the previous generation."

Xilin kept thinking about these words in her mind. Of course, she also stared at the old man.

From the beginning, Xilin felt that she looked familiar to him, but she could not see clearly. Xilin could only see a general shadow of the old man, but could not see anything. She could only know that he was a rickets. old man.

But as the old man came closer, and after he finished speaking these words, Xilin gradually saw clearly, and the old man's appearance also appeared in front of Xilin.

But after seeing this person, Xilin was stunned. She couldn't believe it. Her eyes widened. Her face no longer had the calmness and arrogance. She froze in place.

"Why, it would be you..."

Siren took a step back. The surprise and disbelief on her face was real and there was no way to hide it.

If Xilin did not expect the identity of 003 in the previous generation, then this person now is an existence that Xilin could not even imagine.

"Old man..."

When she said these three words, Xilin felt ridiculous. The old man who was clearly dead at the beginning appeared here.

Seeing the disbelief in Xilin's eyes, the old man in front of him smiled. Like a kind grandfather, he looked at Xilin and shook his head.

"Is the old man you are talking about the artificial man?"

Xilin reacted. She didn't know what to say. She felt this was ridiculous and unfair to Bai Mo.

She cared so much that she would even feel excited and happy because of the recognition. Her father, one of the few people she relied on, appeared here.

Isn't he dead? But Xilin would rather he die now!

Here, he was playing with Bai Mo's feelings for him.

As if seeing the emotion in Sirin's eyes, the old man shook his head again.

"I'm not him. I don't have the feelings to raise her or have feelings for her."

Xilin took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. She was not stupid. After the initial surprise and anger, she gradually calmed down and thought about it, and she had guessed something.

"So, the person or god that the old man saw in the Quantum Sea was actually you."

The old man nodded.

"That's right. At that time, he was a female artificial human and could not have feelings."

"So you transformed her." Xilin took a step forward.

"It was you who transformed her into your image, and gave her the ability to have feelings, and the power to peer into the future."

The old man nodded.

"Should I praise you for your intelligence? However, it is not difficult to guess."

Xilin did not answer her words. She tried hard to think. She felt that many things that she had been confused about before were now solved.

"So, these three of us forerunners were chosen by you, not the old man, right?"

Siren's voice was firm.

However, the old man shook his head.

"No, I just gave the android the instruction to choose 003. So, if I really want to say yes, only the little girl named Youlandel was chosen according to my wishes."

"As for 001 and you, I don't have that right, and of course, I don't have that interest either."

"The one who chooses you will naturally have a corresponding person. I just asked the artificial person to tell you your identity, that's all."

Siren didn't expect that she would get this answer.

"So, who is it?"

Xilin was a little anxious, but the old man did not answer directly, but smiled.

"What do you think?"

Xilin was about to shake her head, how could she guess such a riddle.

But at this moment, she seemed to realize something.

"Wait a minute, the previous generation 003 is here, then..."

"Could it be that the three forerunners of the previous generation still exist?"

"What makes you think that they don't exist anymore?" The old man looked at Xilin with interest.

Siren took a deep breath.

"So why are you the only one here?"

The old man was silent. After a few breaths, he turned around. A picture appeared in front of her. The picture seemed to be a portal, but Xilin knew very well that she could not reach there.

Because that picture is only what Xilin saw at the end of Bai Mo's gray life. She was standing there, only one step away.

At this time, Sirin saw a sword in that position, a sword stuck on the ground.

The sword just stood there, as if abandoned, looking desolate, but also seemed to be waiting for something to arrive.

"At the beginning, the two of them chose to accept it, and I couldn't accept her choice, so I stayed here."

He turned around and looked at Siren.

"Do you believe there is a God?"

Xilin didn't know why he suddenly asked this question, but facing this question, Xilin shook her head.

"The god just now was just a puppet you made. As a Herrscher, I didn't feel the existence of a god above."

The old man shook his head.

"No, gods do exist. Some of them are the origins of trees and seas..."

The old man stopped suddenly and smiled bitterly.

“Let’s put it another way, maybe you’ll understand it better.”

"Some of them are powerful creatures born from the origin of imaginary numbers and the origin of Honkai. They are the true gods of Honkai that you call them."

"There are also some that come from nowhere, foreign gods."

"They are far more powerful than the puppet you saw. Even that puppet was a fake made by me using the corpse of a former Honkai God."

As he said this, he looked at Siren.

"Of course, you Herrschers are actually part of God, or the seeds of God, but your growth or existence is limited."

"And God itself has no definition. As long as you are strong enough, you can call yourself God."

Hearing this, Xilin couldn't believe it.

The old man was still very calm, with a smile on his face.

"You're surprised, aren't you? Gods are very powerful. Their power is far beyond your imagination. However, they are not so out of reach. At least, you Herrschers have the ability to reach that height in a sense. .”

"Then they are now..." Xilin wanted to ask carefully, if there is really a god, why did it not appear, but let such a fake be so arrogant?

"Because now, there is no god." The old man shook his head.

"Some of those who once called themselves gods, as well as those outside gods, have died, disappeared, fallen asleep, or returned to Honkai, the trees and the sea..."

The old man looked at the sword as if he was lost in memories.

However, he did not elaborate on this too much, but gave a conclusion softly.

"But no matter what their outcome is, after that divine battle, under that sword, here, no one will dare to call themselves gods anymore."

"God has been terminated long ago. God represents death here..."

Looking back, she looked at Siren.

Xilin was stunned for a while and finally came to her senses.

"You mean, God only existed, but now there is no God?"

"The age of God has ended..."

The old man nodded, but he obviously didn't want to continue talking about this topic, so the conversation changed.

"Our topic is a little off topic. 001 has completed its duties, so as 002, you can ask me some questions. Of course, not all questions will be answered."

Xilin wanted to continue asking about the topic of God, but the old man had clearly told her that God was really just a legend now, because God only existed in the beginning, and now, he has completely disappeared.

This is a good thing for human beings. After all, they no longer need to face an existence that completely transcends cognition.

Now, the old man said that he could ask questions...

"If I asked you to tell me everything, you wouldn't answer, would you?"

The old man shook his head.

"You actually don't need to care. In the future, your 003 will know everything."

Siren hesitated again for a moment.

"So, why us?"

The old man chuckled.

"001 was chosen seven hundred years ago, but in fact the original target was not the child named Xiao Tianqi, but the child named Otto who appeared two hundred years later."

"They are all born clowns. Of course, only they can complete the test and responsibility I have set."

"But that Otto won't focus on this aspect, otherwise, 001 would be him."
