Chapter 112: The sins committed by Nihility IX, gratitude from Huang Quan!
Binary star system...
Takamagahara and Izumo!
Humans of the two civilizations could only observe the existence of the other planet in the sky...
The audience suddenly understood...
What kind of existence the eight million gods were to Izumo...
But this only explained the eight million gods, and didn't explain why Huang Quan's partners became like that...
Became like the eight million gods...
And then began to attack Huang Quan...
Previous Era...
Pardo said, unable to understand: "Why did it turn out like this..."
"Huang Quan's enemies changed from the eight million gods of the past to her own partners..."
Elysia's expression also turned somewhat ugly at this moment: "From the Captain's description..."
"The origin of these eight million gods should be Takamagahara, no doubt."
Sakura couldn't help but frown when she heard this name: "Takamagahara..."
Su spoke: "Sakura, if I remember correctly, in the myths and legends of the Sakura country, Takamagahara is the place where the gods reside..."
Sakura nodded: "But I don't think this should have much to do with the Takamagahara in our myths..."
"It's entirely caused by the similarity of the two worlds."
"Swinging the blade in her hand at her former comrades..."
Sakura couldn't help but grip her own blade when thinking of that scene; if it were her...
She would never be able to swing that blade no matter what!
Here, Sakura had to admire Huang Quan's courage!
Every blade swung out was full of courage, and at the same time full of pain...
Mobius looked at the battle in the video, Huang Quan's barrage, and Bai Feng's explanation...
"Could it be that those existences in Takamagahara are something like a curse..."
"When these people killed the gods of Takamagahara, the gods' curse would descend on this land!"
"Turning everyone on this land of Izumo into the same gods..."
"Because it is a binary star system, in such a situation, both sides fell into a cycle that they could never escape from for all eternity..."
"MEI, can you understand what I mean?"
MEI nodded: "Yes..."
"You mean, the fate of these two binary stars has been alternating; when Izumo's civilization developed, the gods of Takamagahara invaded..."
"Then it was Izumo's turn to be the gods; the second time when Takamagahara's civilization developed..."
"It was the gods of Izumo who began to invade Takamagahara..."
"Such a repeating cycle..."
Eden looked at the video screen: "So in the end, Huang Quan chose to let her hometown escape such a cycle, and after obtaining power, she slashed the entire world..."
"If that's really the case, then it's truly highly similar to our Honkai world!"
"The difference is that their disaster cycles in two worlds, while our disaster cycles in fifty thousand years..."
"But..."
Eden still looked at MEI and Mobius somewhat uncomprehendingly: "Two doctors, if your guess is correct..."
"Then the power that turned them into eight million gods is the real conspiracy!"
Mobius looked at the video screen: "Right..."
"Whose masterpiece is this Aeon, anyway?"
"Among the Aeons we know so far, there isn't any Aeon with such a perverted hobby..."
"This Aeon who doesn't care, if he really doesn't care, why would he do such a thing?"
"Is it fun?"
Everyone's heart sank; if it really was because of that, that would be the most excessive thing!
Because it's fun, so they turned two civilizations into what they are now...
"These are still just our guesses, let's continue to listen to what the Captain says."
MEI looked at the video screen: "I always feel..."
"The ending will be even more desperate than we imagined..."
Kalpas snorted: "Two worlds constantly cycling and harming each other, isn't such an ending cruel enough?"
Vill-V spoke: "Perhaps the audience in the Astral universe..."
"Have already guessed which Aeon it is~~"
"Normal!"
Mobius smiled faintly: "After all, they are different from us..."
"They know a lot of information about the Aeons..."
"While we are at the stage where if the Captain doesn't say it, we don't know..."
"So it's completely different..."
Astral universe...
Herta Space Station!
Herta had a gloomy face: "Binary stars... both turned into eight million gods... Nihility..."
"Doesn't care..."
"I know, I know what's going on..."
Herta suddenly realized, with Bai Feng hinting to this extent!
She finally knew what had happened...
And such things had happened more than once in the Astral universe...
Yet she only reacted now...
Truly stupid!
No!
Can't admit I'm stupid...
Herta coughed twice and pretended to be profound...
The main thing was wanting Asta to ask directly at this time...
So that she could explain what was going on...
Although in the livestream now, Bai Feng was already talking!
Asta also cooperated and looked at Herta: "Ms. Herta, do you already know what's going on?"
Herta nodded: "Yes, Asta..."
"This is all because of the Aeon of Nihility—IX"
"Is it really him?"
Asta was a little surprised: "But doesn't he not care about anything? Why create such a disaster in the two civilizations of Izumo and Takamagahara..."
Herta looked at the video screen and spoke: "Asta..."
"This disaster wasn't caused by anything he did; it's precisely because IX didn't do anything that it happened..."
In the livestream...
Bronya looked at Bai Feng beside her: "Binary star system, Takamagahara... Izumo..."
"Does it refer to Izumo, Huang Quan's hometown?"
Bai Feng nodded: "Yes..."
"The Izumo mentioned here is Huang Quan's hometown, and what we see now is a broken Izumo..."
"And Takamagahara... is the place where the eight million gods fell..."
Bronya's eyes narrowed: "So this is really a story of another civilization invading Izumo..."
"If we follow this plot, I can probably guess that the gods of Takamagahara might possess some kind of polluting authority..."
"That's why it led to the Izumo that originally won this battle..."
"Instead being polluted into this appearance..."
"Everyone except Huang Quan was polluted by Takamagahara..."
Bai Feng nodded: "Bronya, your judgment is correct..."
"After winning this battle, Izumo was polluted!"
"But not because of Takamagahara's pollution..."
"Because Takamagahara was also a victim of this disaster, no..."
"Perhaps to be more accurate, whether it's Izumo or Takamagahara..."
"Both are among many victims of the same situation..."
Bronya's expression turned dark: "Captain, you mean..."
"In the Astral universe..."
"Not just Takamagahara and Izumo, but more planets have experienced the same situation..."
"And a disaster like the eight million gods appeared?"
Bai Feng nodded: "Yes..."
Bronya immediately asked: "Which Aeon? Is it the one that doesn't care that the Captain mentioned at the beginning?"
"Yes..."
"And his name is the Aeon of Nihility—IX"
"Nihility?"
Bronya recited this concept and couldn't help but say: "Can having nothing also become a Path?"
"As long as the concept fits, any concept can become an Aeon, Bronya..."
Bai Feng snapped his fingers...
A black thing that looked like a fried egg appeared on the video screen...
The yolk part even had two small white eyes!
It looked slightly cute...
Of course, if Bai Feng didn't say that the enemy Huang Quan is facing now is related to this guy...
The audience would definitely think it was cute...
But now it's different...
How much pain of civilizations and planets is hidden under this cuteness...
The audience didn't dare to think...
And in the livestream...
Those who knew the Aeon of Nihility had basically guessed what happened at that time...
Bai Feng continued: "This is the Aeon of Nihility—IX! In his view, everything in the world, everything in the universe..."
"No matter what it is, it will eventually turn into Nihility..."
"So there's no need to do anything, no need to care about anything, no need to think about anything..."
"Just drifting in the universe quietly like this is fine..."
"In the Astral universe, there is such a saying: IX never glances at anyone."
"That is to say, IX has reached a state of Nihility where he won't pay attention to anything, even if someone resonates with the Path!"
"He won't cast a glance at that person either..."
Bronya immediately understood: "Meaning..."
"There are no Pathstriders on the Path of Nihility?"
"Yes, Bronya."
"There are no Pathstriders on the Path of Nihility, but the power of Nihility truly exists."
Bai Feng continued: "And because the concept of Nihility is very, very large, the Path of Nihility and the Aeon of Nihility are also incredibly powerful."
"This power is so strong that even being shrouded in the shadow of Nihility will be affected by the power of the Path of Nihility."
"So Bronya..."
"A huge celestial body drifting aimlessly in the universe..."
"His shadow will also affect others, what do you think will happen next?"
Bronya guessed it instantly...
She looked at the livestream fiercely: "The binary star system of Izumo and Takamagahara didn't do anything, but just at this time, the Aeon of Nihility IX drifted over!"
"The shadow of Nihility first shrouded Takamagahara!"
"Those people originally on Takamagahara were shrouded in the shadow of Nihility under these circumstances, but without receiving IX's glance, they couldn't use this powerful power at all!"
"Instead, they were polluted because the power was too strong..."
"And became the eight million gods!!!"
Bai Feng nodded: "The eight million gods, whose minds were overwhelmed by power, first destroyed their own civilization, Izumo!"
"Then they looked at the other planet in the sky..."
"Izumo!!!"
Bronya already felt despair...
"Facing the descent of the eight million gods, the people of Izumo didn't know what had happened..."
"Firmly believing that defeating these eight million gods could return a beautiful future to Izumo."
"So Huang Quan and her partners fought the eight million gods with all their might, using the gods' authorities to forge the World-Protecting Edict Blades..."
"But just when they thought victory was about to arrive..."
