Chapter 319: Covenant

It was like being in the universe, or under the starry sky.

The light that shone from nowhere hit Moses' side, making the place where he was brighter, and the distance colder and darker.

Although he lowered his head, Moses could feel that God was looking at him. It was not only him now, but also the past and future.

Feeling this gaze, Moses felt a little uneasy.

Although it was just a glance, he had already understood that this was definitely not the god of the Egyptians, not the god of the Midianites, nor the many gods he knew. It was the god who gave spirits to all things in ancient Hebrew mythology - even at this moment, he felt that there must be some fallacies in these myths.

Because in Moses' perception, the sacredness in front of him was so great that he could hardly believe that there was anything that could stand shoulder to shoulder with Him, and the other gods in those myths could not.

Although Moses could not distinguish the strength of the sacredness, just as an ant could not distinguish the height of a mountain. But there are always some existences, as long as He appears in front of you, you can understand His uniqueness.

"God." As if unable to bear this kind of gaze and tension, Moses whispered: "According to your will, I come here to meet you and tell you about the suffering we have endured."

"The Hebrews with the blood of God have been oppressed for too long, and we have not received God's response for too long. Until today, I finally know that God has never abandoned us, and all suffering is just a test for us."

"Please give me guidance, great and almighty God, I will exercise your will on earth, just as it exists forever in the sky. I will let mortals know your greatness, just as I know that the sun hangs in the starry sky."

The voice echoed in the void, but Moses only waited for a longer silence.

He felt that the gaze on him seemed to be heavier...Until a certain moment, Moses felt light all over, and he finally heard the voice that seemed to come from a distant time and space.

It was just the content of this voice that made him feel like being struck by thunder.

"Guidance... no guidance, no test... no blood..."

"Your blood is not sinful, but it is not noble either."

"I have never looked at you, and I will not test your piety."

"The sun will bring you destruction... The Egyptians will raise their butcher knives to you - but I will not end it all. You must live, and then you will end it."

There are no lies, no deception. In fact, Io and her descendants can reproduce, which is indeed a surprise to many people. Even the source of their blood has long forgotten this mother and son. This is an accident caused by Isis's choice and Ra's character. Since no one thought of this in advance, there is naturally no test or abandonment.

As for the blood of the Hebrews - their so-called divine blood comes from Zeus. This is the sinful blood of foreign lands, but for God, it is naturally neither noble nor inherently sinful.

"... God," Moses felt a little cold all over as he fell to the ground.

God's words are so ruthless, but so reasonable.

Perhaps the Hebrews are indeed so insignificant to Him... But if so, why does He appear here? How can He redeem them?

"If the Hebrews are so ordinary, almighty God, why do you tell me about the disaster we are about to face? If you have never looked at us, why do you call me to your presence? I think we must have something different from foreign nations to receive the honor you have bestowed upon us."

"It's not you, it's you."

Moses heard God say this.

"You are not special, it's you who are special. I have been looking at you, but it has always been you, not the Hebrews."

Moses raised his head slightly and finally couldn't hold back his movements. However, this time, he did not see the existence of God.

In the chaotic time, he saw himself.

The past seemed to be repeating itself, and time no longer had secrets. He saw himself coming from heaven, from the hand of God, and then going to the world; he saw himself from birth to death, ten times, each time long; he also saw that in the near future, there would be a fire from the sun burning across the world, countless lives would die, but he was the only exception.

And this is why he saw God.

God did not come to save the Hebrews, but to save him. God needed him to live, but did not need them to live. So God would not save his people...only he could.

At this moment, a kind of secret joy surged in his heart for a short time, but Moses immediately felt ashamed of this mentality. He was a person from heaven, the one who came from God's side to the world, so God favored him, but when he recalled his past life, he found that he still could not give up his people.

'Maybe this is the limitation of mortals,' he thought: 'God showed me my past, but I couldn't empathize. I only remember myself in these decades, but not the self who lived ten lives, the self who came from heaven. ’

Then he touched the ground with his forehead and prayed to God.

“God, I already know my mission—that’s why I came to the world. But I still beg you to share the glory you gave me with my people.”

After the words fell, Moses felt the heaviness in that gaze return, even heavier.

It was like a world pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.

I don’t know how long it took, but it seemed like an era had passed. At a certain moment, the pressure finally faded away like a tide. God's voice sounded again, but this time Moses no longer felt the warmth in it.

"If this is what you want... then go back to your people. Go and suffer with them, and then don't come back."

"You will give up the future, give up eternal life, give up everything you own, and endure the disasters sent by their gods with your people. Those who do not believe in me will all die, and the pious will also suffer disasters.

"Three out of ten people in their prime will die; five out of ten women and children will die; seven out of ten people who are old and sick... This world does not belong to you, then you must go to the place that belongs to you. You must leave here and go to Go to the end of the sea... Even so, do you still insist on your opinion? "

"I insist, but God, what about them?" Moses asked: "Those beings who have caused disasters for us. Can they live in gorgeous palaces and enjoy beauty and joy?"

"of course not."

"Those who dwell on earth will receive the punishment on earth; and those who are in heaven, will receive the punishment from heaven. Whatever they inflict on you will be repaid to their gods; this is my promise to you and you alone."

God's voice remained calm, but at this moment Moses felt relieved. He didn't know if he would regret it in the future, but he did it now.

"In gratitude for your mercy, Almighty Creator."

He chanted in a low voice, and then raised his head again. This time, Moses saw the presence of God again.

“I offer all I have to you, Lord Almighty, although everything comes from you.”

Standing outside of time, watching all this, the god smiled.

"Very well, I accept it."

“Now that everything is settled…then Moses.

"I make a covenant with you."

······

Few people know what the existence of Moses actually meant. Even Isis, who has watched him for so many years, actually only knows a rough idea.

To Hermenus he was only Moses; but to Chaos he was Pallas. And Pallas's fate is dead. He should not be alive, because the God King sacrificed the former goddess of wisdom to the world... If he can still survive, then his existence itself is a denial of the world.

So in the past thousand years, because of his existence, the collision between the two worlds has been greatly intensified.

Injuring the enemy eight hundred and losing a thousand to himself. In order to erase this life that should not exist, both worlds suffered more severe losses... But in fact, this was because Moses' soul was incomplete. Because his ten reincarnations are not over, he is not considered to be Pallas' true rebirth.

But at that moment, when he offered everything he had to God with his own will, God made him whole. And this behavior, which completely violated the will of Chaos, instantly brought huge turmoil to the two worlds.

In the sky, in the sun.

Holding the scepter in his hand, he was planning to completely activate the power of the sun and use the flames that burned the world to cleanse all mortals with foreign blood.

He can do it and has the right. When he merged with the power of the god Amun, even on the other side of the world, the giant snake Apophis, which symbolized chaos, was no longer his opponent. He could break it up more easily and let it slowly regenerate in the chaos.

However, at the moment he was about to take action, a huge earthquake that could not be heard by mortal objects suddenly came. La couldn't even stand still and almost fell from the throne.

"What happened... is that alien world, is he crazy?"

He was confused at first, and then his expression changed drastically. He suddenly discovered that the erosion rate of Hermione by foreign forces suddenly increased ten thousand times.

The barrier of the world is almost cut open, and the laws of foreign lands begin to penetrate... But this is actually unreasonable, because the erosion of another world should not be so rough.

The purpose of erosion is to devour and fuse, rather than to consume one's own strength to grind down the opponent's strength. If what is consumed in the process of eroding a world is much greater than what is gained after devouring it, then this is a meaningless behavior, but this is not the case now.

Injuring the enemy five hundred and damaging himself three thousand, as if some taboo had been touched, the foreign power began to attack Hermione regardless of the cost.

"Why is this? Because I want to kill those mortals?"

Somewhat puzzled, more shocked and angry, La didn't expect that his small move would actually bring about such a huge reaction. Those mortals were really so important... so should he stop?

"No!"

Of course, it cannot be stopped. Although this turmoil in the world even affects the gods who exercise the law, and even he who is more closely connected with the world is more affected, this is by no means a reason to retreat.

Finding the enemy's key point, but giving up because of the enemy's violent reaction... What a ridiculous choice. The less the enemy wants me to do something, the more I want to do it!

"Shu, come see me!"

Inheriting part of the power of God Amon made Ra stronger, but it also made him shoulder the responsibility of being one of the four barriers in the world [Absolute Space].

He now needs to quickly strengthen the world's barrier and must not allow foreign powers to invade, but the other gods are different.

Even if they are affected, their power is definitely not something that mortals can resist. As long as it brings wind and rain, causes famine, and lets human dynasties kill them, nothing will make any difference.

He wanted to see what was so special about these mortals with foreign blood!

…

Chaos.

The Underworld.

The Land of No Light.

When the power of the world suddenly erupted, it was not only Hermeneus who was affected. As the active attacker, Chaos was also naturally affected.

However, the attack only resulted in losses, and the defense would be destroyed... So Chaos was actually only able to sense the original gods, and their sense was that the power of the world suddenly burst forth like a floodgate.

Despite the pouring, the size of the world was still unimaginable... But some things were inevitably affected.

"... What happened?"

At some point, the realm that had never been entered by outsiders changed its appearance. In the depths of the Land of No Light, there seemed to be something more. But Erebus had never changed. He looked into the distance with a puzzled look.

What was Chaos attacking, the spirit world? No, probably the place where Nyx had been before... With a look of sudden realization, Erebus felt that this should be the case, but in this case, his plan might be affected.

"Not entirely..."

Erebus looked at the outside world and looked at the earth. He saw Silver Moon City, those mortals who believed in the spiritual world, and the active tracks of angels.

Finally, his eyes stopped on Mount Olympus.

"This is the bad thing about the original god. It's hard to die. Ryan... I hope your sword is sharp enough."

With a faint smile, Erebus took a step forward and headed towards the mountain.

Everyone has what they want. Ryan seems to want to break the shackles of the world and let the spiritual world go further. Zeus wants to rule the world and become the real king of all gods, and what he wants is very simple, just to die. This is not too much.

No matter who it is, whether it is the world, or a person or god... Erebus sincerely hopes that someone can come to kill him.
