Chapter 1035 The Source of Hostility
“I’m wondering if I should kill you directly.”
The handsome young blond man Tiffero stared at Mo Tan with burning eyes, his clear light golden eyes There was a suffocating light in his eyes, and he spoke his bold idea calmly.
Mo Tan also nodded calmly: "Oh, what next?"
"Maybe you don't understand the nature of this power in you, young man."
Luke Tefero narrowed his eyes, stared at the ever-spreading ink in the eyes of the young junior in front of him, and said softly: "But I can feel that it is by no means a safe and controllable existence. Admittedly, You can't do any harm to me through it now, but if one day you completely master this power, or more likely... be completely swallowed by this power, things will become another matter. "
Mo Tan laughed twice and repeated what he just said: "Oh, what next?"
"Although I don't think I am a good person, I have never thought about it. What kind of savior can I become, but I still cherish this world full of contradictions, struggles and helplessness. The so-called "God loves the world" in the holy scriptures is just a beautiful word, and I am only a very insignificant member of the goddess's followers. Naturally, I don't have this. "
Tiphilo pinched his eyebrows in confusion and breathed a sigh of relief: "But even so, I still don't want to exist in an existence that may cause catastrophe in the future. I have been indifferent before. Although I think you are a good boy, and the goddess also holds the same point of view, but from another perspective, you 'outsiders' have an extremely indifferent attitude towards this world. To put it simply, it is ...It’s so uncontrollable.”
This time, Mo Tan did not continue, “Oh, what next,” but curled his lips angrily, shook his head and said, “I don’t think you are too high-minded. I, to tell you the truth, in our world, there is a list specially made for us aliens. The strongest people among them are only at the level of epics, and I am afraid that I can’t even make the top 10,000 people. ...Well, thanks to you leading me to the path of discipline, I may not even be able to get in with the first hundred thousand. Is it really necessary for you to pay so much attention?”
"Have I ever said that you are strong?"
Tiphilo shook his index finger and said solemnly: "What I fear is the power you can inspire. Maybe even you don't have the power you can inspire." I don’t know what kind of existence it is, but I can tell you clearly, young man, the power entrenched deep in your soul Its level is no less than 'divine power'."
Mo Tan frowned and asked curiously: "What is divine power?"
"It means literally, divine power. The power used by God”
Tiphilo did not show any impatience, but was very angry. Carefully explained to Mo Tan: "It is the most fundamental power in this world, one of the most primitive, most diverse, and closest to the basic laws. To give an example, we can regard it as the first-level power, and Priests like you and me drive this divine power through faith and magic. After the transfer, which can be regarded as protection or restriction, it becomes a lower-level power. Whether it is laws, holy words, or other divine spells, they are all second-level powers, controlled by mages. The same elements as the evil energy used by the warlocks and the fighting spirit inspired by the warriors.”
[Have I heard this somewhere...]
A flash of confusion flashed in Mo Tan's eyes, and then he continued to listen to the big man in front of him adding 'useless knowledge' to himself.
Of course, this knowledge is not really useless. Although it does not mean much to Mo Tan now, he has vaguely sensed the other party's words 'the power entrenched deep in your soul'. What is it.
Although I wanted to get rid of it, ignore it, and pretend it never existed, I experienced the 'fragment' on the first day I entered the world of innocence, and after that, I was always shrouded in the fear in my memory. Mo Tan knew very well that that was a fact that he had to face squarely.
In fact, he had already made some moves after arriving in Academy City.
"I'm glad you're keeping up with me, young man."
Noting that Mo Tan didn't stare in confusion, but showed a thoughtful expression, Tifilo He immediately showed an approving smile and said softly: "Then, we might as well speed up a bit. For example, I want to hear your opinion on the power system of our world. Understood."
Mo Tan rolled his eyes and replied concisely: "I don't know."
"Well, I don't think you know either."
Ti. Philo nodded slightly and continued to ask: "So, you should be familiar with the hierarchical classification of strength, right?"
Mo Tan did not pretend to be stupid, and said happily: "Low level, middle level, high level, epic, legend, that's about it, right?"
"Yes, in the eyes of most people, it is That's right, low-level, mid-level, high-level, epic, legendary, There are five levels in total."
Tiphilo raised his left hand and slowly raised five fingers in accordance with his description. After a brief pause, he raised his right hand and shook his index finger slightly. : "But in fact, it is said that this rank is not actually It’s not the end. Although few people in history can make breakthroughs after reaching the peak of the legendary level, after that, there is actually another level that almost no one knows about.”
Mo Tan was immediately provoked. Curious, he subconsciously asked: "What is it?" "
"It doesn't have an orthodox name. After all, there are too few people in this world who can reach that realm, but I think it's a pretty good name for it. A fitting name.”
Tiphilo stared at the index finger of his right hand and whispered softly: "Myth."
"Myth..."
Mo Tan blinked and inexplicably remembered his heel. ■Infection] is also a reward for the task of defending the Holy Mountain area, the legendary cloak - [Invincible War Hymn].
Because it is the first legendary equipment among all his characters, Mo Tan can easily memorize its attribute effects even without looking at it. The first three characteristics of that cloak are They are [Invincible Halo - Myth], [Invincible Halo - Legend] and [Invincible Halo - Epic].
It suddenly dawned on him that this piece of equipment had already hinted that the peak of power in this world was not a legend, but he did not immediately associate these qualities with the worldview at the time.
"After the epics that have been sung by people and the legends that have echoed throughout the ages, if I can go further, all I can think of is myths, the most unreal and the most illusory myths."
Predecessor Popes Subconsciously, he wanted to stroke his goatee, but when he raised his hand, he realized that he, who was only twenty-five years old at this moment, did not have that accessory, so he had to rub his nose awkwardly: " As for the level of myth, it is undoubtedly the closest to God... No, it is not so much close, but an existence that is indistinguishable from the true God. After all, when someone appears in myth, or even becomes the myth itself, then he also It’s equivalent to God.”
“Wait a moment!”
Mo Tan suddenly raised his hand high and stared at the young version of the previous Pope in front of him, very worried. He asked suspiciously: "Excuse me, Your Majesty St. Luke Tephiro, what is your strength..."
"Oh, you are quite sharp."
Tiphilo shrugged, spread his hands and said, "Well, it doesn't matter if I tell you. As for me now, let's just call it... a half-step legend."
Mo Tan twitched the corner of his mouth, not at all. He laughed twice in surprise: "I knew that, after all, you are 'gifted'."
"Don't say that, in fact, everyone who can reach the peak of the legendary level can be considered to be gifted. Even if I am smarter and have more potential than many people, I am still limited." Tifilo smacked his lips shamelessly and showed a smile that looked silly but actually had a complicated meaning: "I can do more. The further reason is probably because the 'obsession' is deep enough."
Mo Tan raised his eyes and said, "Although I have some guesses, I don't really want to talk to you. This.”
Luke laughed: "What a coincidence, I don't really want to talk to you about this."
So, there is a topic about Luke Tefero's 'obsession' , was easily exposed by the two of them.
“However, what I want to say is that it is precisely because I have touched the threshold of the mythical realm, and even half-stepped into it, that I know that for most mortals, it is possible to use the second level of magic. My strength has reached its limit. It’s like I already have half-step of mythical strength. At most, I can’t You can only reproduce 90% of the divine power of Dawn through your own understanding, and you will never be able to achieve 100% of it."
Luke walked slowly past Mo Tan, turning his back to the latter and whispered. : "Unless I stop being a 'person'."
"That's how it is."
Mo Tan nodded slightly, and after being silent for a while, he smiled in a rather emotional tone: "Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty." Well, the current Pope of Dawn is Ambro."
Luke smiled and turned to glance at Mo Tan's profile: "Now you know why. Do I want to kill you?"
Mo Tan thought for a moment and frowned: "Because the power I have now does not belong to your so-called second level, and it breaks the theoretical limit? The shackles that an individual must bear?”
“Yes, you are very smart, very, very smart”
Tiphilo clapped his hands in approval and said with a smile: "If I had never dabbled in laws, I might not be able to feel it. If I had not stepped into the threshold of mythology, I would probably not be able to notice it. But I satisfy both of these at the same time. Conditions, so I can accurately find you, this young person who is quite destined to me. Young man, and witnessed with his own eyes...the first level of power driven by a mortal body."
Mo Tan raised his eyebrows, but his eyes became more serious: "Is it really that powerful?"
“Yeah, it’s really that powerful, even though I’m personally experiencing it After testing it, I don’t know what it is, but at least one thing is undoubted, that is, it is definitely at the same level as the real divine power.”
Tiphilo patted Mo Tan’s head gently. shoulders, then looked solemn, and said in a deep voice: "If you are allowed to grow up wantonly, Go, then the very existence of 'Black Brahma' is likely to destroy the balance, especially when you reach the peak of legend, the threshold of the mythical rank is simply useless to you."
Mo Tan. Rolled his eyes: "So I deserve to die?"
"You may not deserve to die, but it is necessary to die."
Tifilo turned around and stared at Mo Tan coldly, and said word by word: "I can feel that your share does not belong to How frightening my own power is. It gives me an existence that is almost an enemy of this world. It is an existence that cannot tolerate all the beautiful things. It makes my hair stand on end. From just now, I have been thinking about not wiping it off immediately. To destroy your existence, you have already tried your best.”
Mo Tan made it. With an exaggerated expression, he spread his hands and said: "So this is a multiple-choice question? Is it my death on one side, or is the world destroyed on the other? Old guy, I'm afraid you are not a demon."
"If power is a long sword, Sword, then use it to decide to do good It’s not that I don’t understand the truth that the person who does the evil is still the one wielding the sword.”
Luke Tefero took a deep breath and said softly: “That’s why I didn’t kill you. The only reason.”
"You lied."
"Uh..."
"As far as I know, Mr. Tifilo, you are actually a very, very casual person. Under this premise , The big reason you just said obviously cannot be the reason for you not to slap me to death."
Mo Tan exposed the other party's lie very calmly, grinning and said: "In my opinion, you. The most important reason why you didn't kill me is that it would be useless for you to kill me as an 'otherworlder'. Not only that, it would even make me lose control after I changed my face and started a new life. Are you right? "
"Uh...well, you're right."
Tiphilo was stunned for a while, then lowered his shoulders with some dejection, and asked casually: "Apart from the main reasons you just mentioned?"
"Are you sure you want to talk about those 'secondary reasons' in depth? The reason? ”
“Hey, I’m just kidding, it’s boring to be serious.”
“…”
“…”
...
A few seconds later, the two of them burst into hearty laughter at the same time, and the previous solemn and solemn atmosphere suddenly dissipated completely.
"Let's put it this way, Mr. Tifilo."
After laughing, Mo Tan suddenly said abruptly: "If you don't like the weirdness in my soul...well , power or existence, that’s what it means anyway, then our purpose is actually the same.”
Tiphilo, who originally thought that Mo Tan didn’t understand the situation at all, was immediately stunned: “You. What does it mean? ”
"What I mean is that I am no less hostile to the 'source' of that power...even far more hostile than you."
Mo Tan looked at the other party calmly and said in a deep voice: "If If you're interested, maybe we can have a little chat."
"I'd like to hear the details."
