Chapter 720 Fate
Warm and dry.
The clear and melodious chirping of birds, a hazy but rhythmic sound came through a glass window.
Chen Lunxing opened his eyes, and what he saw was a rather old lattice ceiling, which gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
The bright golden sunlight shines through the window, making the whole room bright.
He rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed, looking around with confused eyes.
This is a cramped but neat small room. An old desk is facing the bed and leaning against the corner. There are some books, stationery and game cartridges on the table. There is also a dirty school uniform hanging on the back of the chair. coat.
On the wall, there is a wrinkled poster. Seven ferocious monsters are besieging a human hero wearing a cloak. Due to the erosion of time, the poster is a little yellowed, and one corner is turned up.
'This is...'
Almost in an instant, Chen Lun remembered it.
‘Isn’t this the home I grew up in? ’
He was a little dazed.
Soon, he frowned again and knocked on his head.
‘As a child? Why do I think so? What a strange idea...’
He turned to look at the mirror inlaid on the closet door on the other side, which reflected his small bed and the boy sitting on the bed wearing a white vest.
Short black hair, childish face.
Only those black eyes showed perseverance and intelligence.
Chen Lun suddenly felt a strong, dreamlike feeling from another life... He felt as if he had had a dream last night, a very long dream.
A lot of things happened in the dream. It seemed that I had grown up. I also went to a strange and dangerous world, met a girl named Floy, and even married her and had a child.
Even the child has a name, Zoffie.
At the end of the dream, I became a big shot and a powerful hero, but I couldn't remember many details.
Chen Lun was a little stunned and embarrassedly scratched his messy hair.
Falling in love and having children, becoming a god, saving the world, etc... In his opinion, these are really beautiful dreams that are difficult to tell others.
"Alan, have you gotten up? When you get up, you will come down for breakfast. You will go to the amusement park soon..."
Outside the door, the voice of his father Chen Feng could be heard faintly.
Chen Lun suddenly looked stunned.
‘Yes, today is Saturday, school is not in session, and dad promised to take Chen Mo and me to the “Glass Paradise”...’
His face was filled with anticipation and excitement, and he quickly shouted out the door in his childish voice:
"Get up! Come right away!"
After saying that, Chen Lun quickly got out of bed, put on the short-sleeved shorts that he had already prepared for going out last night, and immediately opened the door and went downstairs.
The house is actually not big, only about 70 square meters, and it is divided into two floors. The living room downstairs seems a bit crowded.
But Chen Lun had long been used to it. He ran downstairs and looked up to see his father, Chen Feng, standing at the dining table holding a pot. He was wearing an apron and looked like a househusband. His short black hair was neatly combed. , looks quite handsome, and wears a pair of high-definition glasses on the bridge of his nose.
My younger sister, Chen Mo, was only seven or eight years old. She was sitting on a high stool beside the dining table. She looked up at herself and smiled stupidly. She shouted:
"Brother."
There were some bread crumbs and ketchup stuck to the corner of her mouth.
"Quick, eat it while it's hot, your sister has almost finished it."
Chen Feng said with a chuckle, first he raised his hand to wipe away the stain on the corner of his daughter's mouth, and then used a spatula to scoop the fried rice into a bowl, and asked Chen Lun to sit down and eat.
"Wow, this is my favorite fried rice."
Chen Lun climbed onto the high stool and saw the hot milk again. He quickly picked it up and took a big sip, feeling very happy.
"Thank you, Dad."
"Eat quickly."
Chen Feng touched his head and turned to the kitchen.
In the bright morning sunshine, Chen Lun and his sister happily finished their breakfast, and then followed their father out the door.
Along the way, his father held him with one hand and Chen Mo with the other.
Chen Lun looked excited and kept talking about the items he was going to play in the "Glass Paradise", such as bumper cars, roller coasters, haunted houses, game arcades, etc.
My father just smiled and listened.
When approaching the entrance of the amusement park, Chen Feng suddenly remembered something, raised his brows, stopped and said to Chen Lun:
"Dad forgot to buy water. The water in the amusement park is too expensive. We don't want to waste money... Alan, look at your sister. I'll go to the convenience store over there and I'll be back soon."
< br>
"Okay dad! Don't worry!"
Chen Lun readily agreed.
Then, he took his sister Chen Mo's hand and took her to stand on the roadside waiting.
The back of his father Chen Feng gradually faded away, and soon disappeared in front of the convenience store not far away.
But after a while, my father still didn't come back.
Chen Lun was a little puzzled. He was about to take his sister to have a look, but at this moment, a figure wearing a monster mask jumped out from behind the nearby landscape tree, picked up his sister Chen Mo, and ran away.
He was stunned for a moment, and it wasn't until his sister Chen Mo's cry came that Chen Lun came back to his senses.
‘Human traffickers! ’
Chen Lun was shocked.
Unspeakable fear and panic suddenly filled my heart.
He saw the trafficker hugging his sister and running away. He stood there helplessly, but the courage in his heart suddenly drove him to shout:
"Don't run! Give Chen Mo back to me!"
As he said that, Chen Lun's face turned red and he chased after him.
But he was just a child after all. Even if the tall human trafficker was caught up by him because a truck blocked the road, Chen Lun could not subdue the trafficker and had to hold the trafficker's legs to prevent him from leaving.
"Kid! Do you want to die?!"
The masked man turned around and said in a cold voice.
Immediately he grabbed Chen Lun's neck.
The eyes under the mask were full of murderous intent, and the pain and suffocation in his neck suddenly made Chen Lun inexplicably frightened.
Tears suddenly welled up, but he still bit the back of the man's hand, leaving a ring-shaped tooth mark.
"Let go...Chen Mo! Let her go!"
Chen Lun struggled to make a sound.
But after a while, when many onlookers gathered around, Chen Lun felt strange.
Because the trafficker in front of him had loosened his grip on his neck at some point and did not threaten him again.
Look up.
Chen Lun was stunned.
Because this "human trafficker" has taken off the monster mask, revealing the face of his father Chen Feng, who has a happy smile on his face.
"Alan, well done, you are already a little man."
Suddenly, an uncontrollable grievance and anger surged into his heart, and he questioned his father with tears:
"Why lie to me?! Why?!"
Father Chen Feng was silent for a long time.
Then he slowly squatted down, raised his hand and put it on his shoulder to comfort him:
"Alan, Dad lost something very important because of his incompetence... What I can't do, you will definitely be able to do in the future."
Chen Lun couldn't understand his father's words and still felt sad.
He gritted his teeth and said:
"But this is not a reason to lie to me..."
Chen Feng was startled, then smiled and shook his head.
"Sometimes, well-intentioned deception is gentler than the truth... I'm sorry, Dad has no choice."
Wow...
Hua Hua...
Chen Lun wanted to say something, but he found that his father's face became blurred, and everything around him, including his sister Chen Mo, froze, distorted and dissipated...
Until everything turned into white...
Chen Lun's consciousness was hazy, and some fragmented memories came one after another, making him gradually remember time travel, Floy, and how he ascended to the throne of God step by step and headed for the starry sky...
He even remembered that he had already died in the vast dark space.
But why...
At this time, I heard my father Chen Feng’s voice slowly coming:
"Alan, the truth is cruel. Creatures in countless worlds are nothing in front of that terrifying existence that transcends the sequence. I see that the end points where all fate lines converge lead to the abyss of 'destruction'..."
"But as fate itself, how can I be willing to compromise... Could it be that the so-called great existence that is blind, ignorant, disorderly and thoughtless is really the ultimate truth of the universe? Looking at the vast universe, is everything about human beings really just that? Meaningless and useless? ”
"I don't believe it."
"Human nature, imagination, wisdom and love... they are the weaknesses of human beings, but they are also the only strengths of human beings that are worthy of praise."
"I have planned my whole life, trying to use the true god to plan the past, and the key to saving the world of Beretania is you..."
"Alan, you are my greatest hope."
Chen Feng's calm voice echoed endlessly in the white vision.
The scene changes.
Everything in front of him suddenly turned black.
The dead and dark scene of the universe came into view, and the solar system suddenly appeared in the center of the sight... Including the azure star, the eight planets were rotating around the sun.
From an overhead perspective, at the edge of the solar system, the azure "solar wind" is like a huge blue "tablecloth."
The central luminous star is like a candlestick, and the other planets are food.
Unable to see the whole picture, the huge twisted "figure" was waiting outside, silently staring at the world.
Chen Lun's eyes narrowed, and he was deeply impressed by this scene.
As early as when he first came to the Azure Federation, he took the "Ark" halfway, and while traveling through the solar wind, he got a glimpse of this truth at the last glance.
‘The solar system is a feast, and the “figure” outside is the “blue holy flame” of the past, which is always ready to devour this place...’
Chen Lun understood clearly.
But in the next moment——
He felt that his vision suddenly widened, getting further and further away.
From a more macro perspective, he was suddenly stunned.
The picture he saw again actually stopped his thinking for a moment.
Because of the "tiny" solar system...
The distance between it and the old "Blue Holy Flame" is actually not that far. To be more precise, the solar system is actually located at the heart of the twisted "human shadow".
This couldn't help but make him have self-doubt about his previous judgment.
‘Could it be that the old “blue holy flame” had already swallowed up the solar system? ! ’
Chen Lun's consciousness instantly recalled the last scene before his "death", which was the huge "blue holy flame" of the past with the outline of his body made up of galaxies.
The solar system is an insignificant part of those galaxies!
It has long been part of the old "Blue Holy Flame"!
The next moment.
In his consciousness, there was a crucial secret message left to him by his father Chen Feng, or in other words, Huan Gong Clough.
Chen Lun was startled again and felt deeply shocked!
'The Blue Star, and even the entire solar system, is not the food or prey of the old "Blue Holy Flame" at all. Everything was my cognitive error from the beginning? ! ’
It can be seen from the key messages given by the Environmental Protection Agency:
Actually——
The essence of the Azure Star is a planet and a realm created by the radiation of the Source Sin's "Blissful Feast"... just like the spiritual world created by "No Return", the star realm created by the "Cosmic Lighthouse", and the "hidden world" The nether world created by "The Corpse" is the same as the dream world created by "Dream Tomb"!
There is only one meaning for the existence of Azure Star.
It is the most critical component of the old "Blue Holy Flame".
This is also the true meaning of the name "Blue Star"...
‘How could this happen, how could it be... It turns out that my hometown is just a “cell” of the old “Blue Holy Flame”? The most important "cell"? ’
Chen Lun was stunned and couldn't believe it.
As for the "doomsday prophecy" that the Azure Federation and the Holy Cult have always believed in, in fact, it was just the work of Duke Huan... The purpose was to secretly push the Federation people into the game "The Age of Secrets".
'Black card, doomsday prophecy, games, fictional incarnation Chen Feng, getting married and having children, sister Chen Mo, and me...'
Chen Lun's consciousness was shaken.
‘Everything is just the design and layout of Huan Gong...’
Its ultimate goal is, of course, as Huan Gong himself said, to use the true god to plan the past and find a glimmer of hope for the world of Beretania——
"Alan, you were born as a blue star, and you are essentially a dependent of the old 'Blue Holy Flame'. Therefore, any activities in the solar system will not attract his attention..."
Father Chen Feng's voice came last.
Its tone is solemn and solemn, and at the same time it implies strong expectations:
"This will be the greatest self-rescue and the most tragic salvation - only when you ascend to the position of the new god of destiny, will there be any chance of cutting off the "Blue Holy Flame" and the "Blissful Feast" of the source of sin. Therefore, I must die to leave a place for you and create this opportunity.”
"At the same time, only if your 'Holy Fire Face' is also divine, can you have the opportunity to turn against the guest and steal the source of sin."
"One Old One cannot compete with the seven Old Ones who protect the world of Beretania by relying solely on the path of joy and sorrow. The failure of the King of Comedy back then is a lesson learned..."
"So you must become a double-origin sinner!"
"All of this, the endless years of several eras, is just for this moment, so that you can approach the source of the 'Blue Holy Flame' as a 'familiar', and carry out a fatal and critical blow from the inside to kill him. Become Him——”
Father Chen Feng's voice stopped suddenly.
Chen Lun's consciousness fell into an unprecedented sluggish state, and the words repeated countless times kept echoing:
"Alan, always remember to stick to your heart... You are my greatest hope. What I couldn't do back then, only you can do it, only you."
Only I can do it...
No wonder...
Because I am a family member born and raised on Azure Star...
No wonder...
Huan Gong wants to leave the last Four Seasons Bookmark and the "Bubble" authority in the Blue Federation, because it is not only the energy and hub of the "game", but also for me to leave another incarnation after I get it. On the Azure Star...
This is the last trump card I ignored...
At the same time, it is also a supreme gamble...
Betting on my own spirit and body, humanity and reason...
Earn salvation...
Chen Lun felt a deep awe, awe for Huan Gong Clough, and at the same time, there was also a sense of sadness and sadness that he was still trapped in his fate.
He seemed to see a thin but lonely back.
The figure slowly turned around and cast an incomprehensible gaze at him.
‘Did He really love me? ’
Chen Lun couldn't help but think.
"Did Huan Gong Clough, or my father Chen Feng, really love me... Did he regard me as a 'chess piece' or as a 'son'?"
In my heart, I actually already have a vague answer.
‘He is first and foremost a God, and then a father… He is even willing to give up his own life for salvation, let alone a “foreign heir” who was deliberately born on the Blue Star to achieve his goal? ’
Chen Lun's consciousness dissipated in extremely complicated emotions.
When He returns to reality again and opens his eyes.
What came into view was the research room of the Federal Scientific Research Center.
The huge supercomputer stood tall, but there were no researchers in white coats around. It was empty and dead, except for the beeping sound of the machine accompanied by the flashing green light.
Chen Lun's eyes were lifeless and his breathing was long.
He was reborn from the body of his incarnation that was left here as a game medium.
In my heart, my father Chen Feng's words kept echoing.
The inner torment and torture entangled him, making him extremely painful... (End of chapter)
