Chapter 928

"Me? No, no, no, where would I have such qualifications? Not just me, Otto Apocalypse of Schicksal, Welt Yang of Anti-Entropy, they don't have it either... The leader of humanity, the Savior of the world, has only ever been that one person."

"Wait! You don't mean that Lord!"

"Exactly. Feel honored, Hu Lang. Today is the day to awaken the Lord. The world will submit to that Lord. You will have the honor of witnessing the resurrection of that Lord, and now... we have arrived at his place of slumber."

Gray Serpent looked at the observation port of the submarine. Hu Lang also hurriedly looked in that direction. Only then did she discover that the submarine had passed through the seabed rift of the Pacific Ocean and arrived at the deepest part of the world.

"Hu Lang, welcome to... the Deepest Depths."

After the two entered the Deepest Depths, Hu Lang couldn't help but look around. She took off her leather gloves, touched the walls and other places everywhere, and then her whole body trembled.

"This color, this material, Soul Steel?! This entire building is built of Soul Steel?! Is it so extravagant?! And we actually have a base at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean?!"

"Not a base, but a prison."

Gray Serpent shook his head and corrected.

"What?"

Hu Lang opened her eyes wide, feeling she had heard wrong.

"During the previous civilization, this was a prison used by the Lord to imprison gods. The Lord imprisoned every Herrscher he captured here, but later he transformed this place into an ark that allowed him to come to this era."

Gray Serpent led Hu Lang through one checkpoint after another. Although he had only been here once, the data of the route was forever saved in his safest database.

"Gulp! You must be joking..."

Hu Lang swallowed her saliva, her whole body trembling.

She stiffly turned her head to look behind her. How many prison cells had they just walked past? It must have exceeded a thousand, right? Could it be that more than a thousand Herrschers were once imprisoned here?!

This absurd information made her instinctively want to deny it.

But thinking of the mechanisms she saw along the way, and the fact that there were no doors, and one had to enter through space teleportation technology, she suddenly felt it was very reasonable.

After all, aside from a prison for detaining Divine Apostles, what else needed Soul Steel for every brick and tile?

"Alright, we're here."

Gray Serpent looked at the tightly closed door before him and said.

Although he wasn't a flesh-and-blood body but a machine, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement at this moment. In the final days of the previous civilization, he was summoned.

He received a mission: to awaken the Savior of the previous civilization in this era today!

Gray Serpent slowly opened the heavy door. Although he knew that with his strength, he couldn't cause a scratch on the Deepest Depths, his movements were still cautious.

Because this place of slumber for the Savior was, in his eyes, a holy place that could not be profaned.

After the door opened, the two saw an ice-blue hibernation pod existing within. On the pod lid, one could vaguely see the figure of a person, and this figure alone released pressure that was impossible to describe, making them have the urge to kneel and worship.

"5th Divine Key... Sleep of Matter..."

Gray Serpent hurriedly pulled up the control console. After inputting an extremely long password, the Honkai energy of the hibernation pod stopped operating. The next second, the pod lid slowly opened, and white ice mist leaked out.

And just at this moment, two brilliant golden lights lit up.

That was a pair of golden pupils.

Hu Lang's breathing stalled. She only felt her heart being gripped by a pair of big hands.

She couldn't help but think, what kind of eyes were those? They seemed to have witnessed the destruction and beginning of the world, seen all the beauty and ugliness, deep like the starry sky.

Just the gaze alone made her want to submit.

"Gray Serpent, time."

"Year 2017, month x, day xx, Lord Bai Ge."

"Very good. Current civilization, I'm back."

The white-haired boy stepped out of the 【Sleep of Matter】. Because he didn't restrain his aura in time, the pressure released from his body seemed to increase gravity by several times.

Gray Serpent and Hu Lang knelt before him. This wasn't worship or reverence, but the instinct of their bodies.

Facing a superior who far exceeded them from a biological level, their bodies ignored their will and made a gesture of submission to indicate that they had absolutely no intention of being enemies with Bai Ge.

"Get up. You completed your mission very well, Gray Serpent. If you hadn't called me to wake up today, I would have had to use a more violent method."

"It is Gray Serpent's honor to serve you!"

Gray Serpent didn't ask what the violent method was, because he had already seen it. Only to see the white-haired boy pull a Honkai energy bomb from the bottom of the hibernation pod.

The countdown on it would end in a few hours.

It was very clear that the violent method this person spoke of was to directly blow up the hibernation pod with this Honkai energy bomb, using such means to force himself to wake up.

Hu Lang was so scared by such means that cold sweat broke out.

But Gray Serpent's reaction was much calmer.

Because he knew the style of the person before him. The way he treated himself was always very casual. It was better to say that just using a Honkai energy bomb was already very gentle.

"This place is also getting tiresome. Let's change to a place to talk. Let me think, let's choose this."

Snap!

Bai Ge said while snapping his fingers. Before Gray Serpent and Hu Lang could react, they found themselves on the roof of a high-rise building, and the cool, refreshing wind blew over.

In just a blink of an eye, they had come from the deepest part of the Pacific seabed to a high building in Changkong City.

Bai Ge's eyes narrowed slightly. The warm sunlight shone on his body, plus this refreshing cool wind, it was truly enjoyable. At the same time, he also felt his own strength.

Even if his consciousness fell into slumber, his Chimera body was still constantly becoming stronger. The 50,000 years of time even allowed the Heaven-Devouring Honkai Beast to arrive at the planetary-class level.

And he himself had completely fused with the authority of the past. Even without a core, he could exert full authority, just like the space transfer of the Herrscher of Void just now.

"Lord, to celebrate your return, I have a gift to offer."

Gray Serpent said while offering a greatsword with both hands.

"Only this legendary Divine Key can match your status as the Savior."

The sword body of the greatsword had already dimmed to a grayish-white, and the flames that once ignited the sea of stars had already been extinguished.

People of this era once said it was the flame sword guarding the Garden of Eden, the Shamash that burned Sodom.

It had appeared in countless legends, and most of the people who held this sword could be called heroes.

But Gray Serpent knew very well that even if all those so-called heroes were added together, they wouldn't be a fraction of the pure white person before him. Only when held in the hands of this Savior could this sword release its true power!

"... Shamash, is the first one you?"

Bai Ge raised his hand, and Shamash automatically flew into his hand. The next second, its grayish-white sword body ignited with red-gold flames again.

It was as if it were cheering, as if it were celebrating.

The An-Utu form was triggered automatically. The scorching heat wave made the surrounding air distorted. If Bai Ge swung it at this moment, it would inevitably be able to burn mountains and boil seas, burning everything.

Gray Serpent was moved beyond words. To obtain this Shamash, he had also paid a not-small price, but looking at Bai Ge holding it again, he knew everything was worth it.

The Honkai of this era, you are finished. The Savior who once killed you all by himself is back!

As for Schicksal? Anti-Entropy?

Can you block one sword of our Lord!

"How is everyone doing? All survived, right?"

"Yes... except for Lady Elysia."

Gray Serpent's voice suddenly became very small. To this day, he didn't know what happened that day.

On the last day of the previous civilization, Bai Ge didn't go to the Elysian Realm for the appointment, but fell into slumber in the Deepest Depths the night before.

The next day, Elysia exposed her identity as the Herrscher of Origin, sacrificed herself, and untied the Honkai's shackles for the Herrschers of this era.

He couldn't understand what was going on at all, but knowing the importance of the latter to the former, Gray Serpent was a bit worried about whether Bai Ge, who knew this news, would be unable to accept it.

However...

"Don't worry, Elysia is still alive." Bai Ge said with a calm expression, without any sadness.

"Ah? That Lord is still alive?!" Gray Serpent was so surprised that his mask almost fell off.

"Of course. How could I allow her death? Our promise hasn't been completed yet."

Bai Ge took out a box. The ring inside was still shining brilliantly even after 50,000 years. He hadn't put this ring on the ring finger of the pink fairy yet.

However, it wouldn't be long before he could go and put it on.

Actually, if it weren't for the system saying that once Bai Ge ended the previous civilization dungeon and returned to the current civilization, he would never be able to go back, he wouldn't have used 【Sleep of Matter】 to sleep for 50,000 years.

And he wouldn't have started the heaven-defying plan that followed.

"What about the others besides Elysia? I remember the Pioneer Project was responsible by Kevin, Su, Hua, and others."

"Uh, Kevin had a dispute with Su in the past and was locked into the Sea of Quanta. Hua is currently in an organization called St. Freya Academy in this era, and has lost a large part of her power."

"Tsk, the correction of fate? Strange, wasn't the Stigmata Project already changed by me? Why did these two people quarrel? Kevin actually went into the sea again?"

Bai Ge frowned in confusion. Although he didn't personally intervene, he thought that such a fate could be avoided, but in the end, the things that should happen seemed to have happened anyway.

"... It's a problem of custody."

Gray Serpent was silent for a while and said very awkwardly.

Gray Serpent remained silent for a while, then said quite awkwardly.
