Chapter 503 Intangible Objects

There was no light in the dark valley.

The cry of the nighthawk echoed throughout the valley, as if filled with angry wails. However, Duanmuhuai remained unmoved at all. He just held his cane and followed the road step by step towards the top of Sentinel Ridge.

At the same time, he was also thinking secretly in his heart.

What Duanmu Huai will do next is different from ordinary player investigators. When ordinary player investigators encounter this kind of thing, they will certainly not be without corresponding means. But they also relied on external forces. For example, the three professors of the University of Secrets who once exiled the descendants of the outer gods here relied on the incantations in the "Necronomicon".

However, the incantations of the Necronomicon are certainly not within the scope of human use.

In fact, for Duanmuhuai, the human beings in this world are quite miserable.

You must know that this world is not without gods, there are many outer gods, rulers of the past, star dependents and so on. But there are only humans, without any protection from gods.

You see, even the deep divers can find Dagon and Cthulhu as backup, but humans have nothing, which is very speechless.

So Duanmu Huai plans to change this situation, starting tonight.

He wants to tell other gods that this world and the humans in this world are protected by Lao Tzu!

All Naiya Yogshabu, Nicholas Ketug Yahasta, please step aside!

From this point of view, Duanmu Huai completely overturned the emperor's teachings and took a completely different path from what the emperor thought.

The Emperor asked humans not to believe in gods, but to rely on themselves and not believe in the existence of gods in the world.

But it's no use!

Objective reality will not change due to subjective will. Just like in this world, most people still adhere to scientific values. What is the result? When he saw the evil god, his outlook on life was completely shattered and he turned around and surrendered to the enemy.

What's the reason? Isn't it because there is no big tree behind human beings?

Look at the world, cultists can believe in the King in Yellow and the Mother of the Black Goat.

Deep Ones can believe in Dagon and Cthulhu.

There are people behind this group of bloodthirsty, twisted, filthy, and depraved bastards, but there is no one behind those decent, determined investigators who have risked their lives for mankind. Does this make sense?

Is it really true that good people don’t live long and disasters last for thousands of years?

Cultists can use blasphemous spells to summon subspace monsters from the void and control infinite and great evil forces. On the contrary, the investigators can only survive by relying on their own brains, weapons and dice.

Is this reasonable?

So what Duanmu Huai couldn't understand the most about the emperor was this. What's the matter with humans needing the protection of gods? As long as it's not a false god but a true god, doesn't it still work? how? If you insist on relying solely on the strength of human beings, then roll off the golden toilet as far as you can. Anyway, according to your idea, one more human being is not more than you, and one less you is not less. Even without you, humans can still find a way out, right?

As a result, while you were protecting humanity, you asked humanity not to believe in you, leaving humanity at a loss as to what to do. Isn’t the final result still obvious?

If it hadn't been for the establishment of an imperial state religion, the human empire would have completely collapsed eight hundred years ago.

The most important thing is to stick to your own principles and positions.

"As judges, what we have to do is to protect mankind and eliminate all existence that threatens mankind."

Duanmu Huai walked forward slowly while muttering to himself in a low voice. Each step he took was slow but steady on the ground. The cane in his hand collided with the stone, making a low impact sound.

"Any existence that dares to threaten humanity will be reduced to ashes in the wrath of the Inquisition."

Duanmu Huai raised his head, black flames emerged on his body, the cold wind howled, and the violent wind blew past his eyes, as if the whole world was resisting his arrival.

"There is no place for those who are weak-willed and indecisive. Only by relying on firm actions and beliefs can human beings survive. There is no sacrifice too big to be accepted, and no betrayal too small to be forgiven."

Duanmuhuai's voice was not loud, but it penetrated the sound of wind that seemed to be blowing from the woods, like the wail of an evil ghost, and echoed over the entire Sentinel Ridge.

"Human beings continue to sacrifice themselves, and sacrifice allows the blood of mankind to continue. One generation, one generation, another generation. No matter what the great ideal is. Because the sacrifice itself is greater than any ideal, but maybe there is a hope buried deep in everyone's heart: Maybe one day, there will be a generation where sacrifice is no longer necessary, and there will be a generation where mankind will live in peace and tranquility forever.”

Duanmu Huai raised his head and stared at the rolling dark clouds in front of him. His expression did not change at all, and the raindrops pouring down like hail did not change his actions.

"Burn the heretics, kill the aliens, and eliminate the demons. We are an indestructible shield before the darkness comes, a sharp blade forged in defiance of fate."

Duanmu Huai's voice became louder and louder, even suppressing the howling wind and heavy rain.

"Destroy all enemies of mankind and let their existence be completely destroyed!"

With these words, Duanmuhuai walked to the top of Sentinel Ridge.

"Boom, boom!!!"

Thunder rumbled in the clouds, and what appeared in front of Duanmuhuai was a strange round pile of rocks on the top of the mountain. Several stones formed a huge circle, and thunder roared down from the sky, hitting directly in the center of the circular stone ring. Along with the explosion of thunder and lightning, a low, rough, and unearthly roar appeared.

Although there was nothing in front of Duanmu Huai's eyes, he still felt that the disgusting aura coming from the subspace was gradually becoming stronger and taking shape.

"You can't break my will! Despicable warp bastard!"

Duanmu Huai held his cane and roared loudly. At this moment, the aura of fear completely erupted from him. At the moment when the invisible power of fear burst out, even the world seemed to be afraid of it - the kind of fear that could destroy everything and completely burn everything, even nature could not stop it.

For a moment, the heavy rain seemed to stop, and the howling wind also lost its trace. The invisible thing in the circle of stones seemed to feel the pressure from Duanmuhuai. It roared wildly and furiously, and the next moment - Duanmuhuai felt that the world in front of him seemed to be gradually changing. . Countless worlds and countless hours spanned under his feet. It seemed that the infinite universe among the stars was opening its secrets to him at this moment. Duanmuhuai could feel his body being pulled and divided like a sausage. At this moment, he was standing here, but not here at the same time. He is located in countless centers of countless worlds and countless times. It seems that in the vast and boundless universe, the existence that controls all the past, present and future is showing his power to him.

That great and free power that transcends time, space and even all restrictions.

However…………

"Everything must come to an end."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, the cane he held tightly in his hand hit the ground heavily.

At this moment, the black flames of the destined land erupted from it, swallowing up countless fragments of the world in an instant.

No matter how rich, powerful, beautiful, or terrifying the world is, it will be destroyed and wiped out. No matter what kind of existence or how great a god he is, he cannot escape the fate of eventually becoming the garbage of the astral world. Death, destruction, complete demise, everything is like this, without exception.

Duanmu Huai held the cane tightly and gritted his teeth. He could feel that this was a battle between heart and spirit. This is not a simple confrontation between investigators and evil gods, but a trial between two gods. Yog-Sothoth showed him his power, the great being that transcended everything in the universe. If Duanmu Huai was another god, he might have chosen to surrender and retreat at this moment.

But...he is the God of Destruction.

Any obstacle that stands in front of mankind will be destroyed by him. Everything in this world is like this. No existence can escape such a fate, not even Azathoth. Perhaps Duanmu Huai does not have such power yet, but his determination is extremely firm and his belief is extremely clear. Everything Yog-Sothoth showed him could not change Duanmu Huai's mind, so everything he showed would eventually perish.

And Duanmuhuai is the representative of that moment.

The demise, disappearance, and complete destruction of all things.

Even Yog-Sothoth cannot avoid this. It sees the past, it sees the present, it sees the future.

So naturally, it also saw death, destruction and even the end of everything.

It cannot deny this.

So this is what Duanmu Huai wants to insist on.

Destruction is inevitable, so where the flames of destruction will flow needs to be considered.

"……………………"

The next moment, everything returned to normal.

Duanmuhuai shook his body, opened his eyes and looked forward. The fragments of time that swept over his body like a tornado from the sea had disappeared. The top of Sentinel Ridge has begun to become peaceful, and the torrential rain has gradually stopped. Only in the center of the circular stone circle, the smell of evil and filthy subspace creatures has not retreated.

Under the pressure of the fear aura, Duanmuhuai could feel it struggling, trying to break free from this terrible shackles. But it couldn't do it, and its power began to gradually drain away, and its originally angry soul, full of hatred and rage, gradually began to weaken at this moment.

"Anyone who is an enemy of mankind will only be destroyed."

Duanmu Huai slowly walked towards the center of the stone formation, looking at the empty land in front of him. Then he raised the cane in his hand high, and at this moment, dark flames erupted from it, condensing into a flaming blade.

Then, Duanmu Huai waved hard towards the front.

"Ouch——————!!!"

A shrill, weird scream suddenly sounded, and the empty air suddenly opened a huge hole with Duanmuhuai's sword, as if the world in front of Duanmuhuai was a picture scroll, and he was rough The picture tore a crack.

Then, this crack twisted and struggled in front of Duanmu Huai, and then gradually disappeared.

At the same time, a system prompt popped up in front of Duanmu Huai again.

[Special mission "The Origin of Fear" completed]

[Task Evaluation: Excellent]

[Even in the face of beings across the universe, you still persisted in your original intention and successfully completed the trial, once again making the world realize that the fear of destruction is the most primitive fear from the hearts of all living beings. 】

[The aura of fear acquires a new trait—ferocious momentum]

[Ferocious momentum: When a player charges or attacks, all hostile creatures within a fifty-meter radius of the player who look directly at the player will lose 1D8 sanity]

“……………………”

Looking at the system prompts in front of him, Duanmu Huai was completely speechless.
