South Pole of the far side of the moon - Aiken Basin - Heaven's deep space base on the moon.

The back of the moon is forever hidden from Terra's sight. It is quiet and dark here, with only a thin ray of sunlight occasionally rising from the distant horizon, giving this desolate land a faint silver glow.

The South Pole-Aitken Basin - the deepest place on the moon, is like an endless black hole that swallows up all light.

The terrain here is rugged, with huge craters and steep rock walls crisscrossing each other.

In this dead land, the deep space ship base stands quietly.

The surface of the base was partially hidden in the shadow of the basin, with only a few isolated buildings reflecting silver light in the faint moonlight.

These buildings are low and flat, as if embedded in the surface of the moon. The surface is covered with smooth metal armor, exuding a cold and mysterious luster.

Their appearance is like geometrically cut crystals, with sharp edges and corners, yet they blend perfectly into this vast wasteland.

The main entrance is located in the central area of ​​the base, a circular platform that quietly overlooks the surrounding lunar landscape.

A huge transparent protective cover is hung above the platform, flickering slightly under the starry sky, as if guarding a door to an unknown universe.

Most of the base is hidden beneath the lunar surface, and a huge underground structure extends through the rock strata of the basin.

The underground maze, hundreds of meters deep, is composed of countless modular buildings. Each module is a self-sufficient world, carrying the hope of human survival and exploration in this barren land.

The walls here are made of thick metal and ceramic materials to protect against the threat of cosmic radiation and micrometeorites.

The light in the corridor was soft and warm, forming a sharp contrast with the cold darkness of the surface, giving people the illusion that they were in a quiet night on Terra.

[Drip drip drip————]

[Drip drip drip————]

The harsh sound echoed in the corridor, breaking the silence in the base, as if some unknown crisis was approaching, pushing this base buried deep on the back of the moon into the center of the storm.

Red warning lights flashed in every corner of the command center, and the harsh "beep" sound was like a sharp knife, cutting through the silence in the lunar base.

Nemo Yegor, who was located in the core area of ​​the command center, looked even taller and more slender in his neat military uniform.

As one of the six inquisitors of the Inquisition, he is also the captain of the Angel of Abomination and one of the supervisory angels of the lunar base outpost.

At this moment, Yegor was staring at the huge virtual projection screen in front of him with an expressionless face.

The projection screen took up the entire wall, and the projected light shone on his stern face.

The screen displayed real-time monitoring images of the Earth-Moon orbit. The orbit lines were intricately intertwined, and detailed markings and data were constantly refreshed in front of his eyes.

However, all eyes were now focused on an anomaly in the center of the screen: a gigantic "humanoid" anomaly located in the space between Terra and the Moon, approximately 3.8×10 kilometers away from Terra.

The projection content was constantly zooming in and out, and Yegor's eyes became increasingly stern as the image grew larger.

At first, from an extremely distant perspective, this celestial body was just a vague outline, like an irregular shadow shrouded in the void.

As the picture zooms in, the shadow gradually becomes clear, revealing its true appearance - a huge, abnormal celestial body in the shape of a female.

The size of this celestial body is incredibly huge, with an altitude of 3476.5 kilometers, almost the same as the diameter of the moon.

Her form seemed to rise from the abyss of the universe, emitting a cold and mysterious light.

Her head was slightly tilted, and her long hair seemed to be made up of countless stardust, floating in the void of space with the wind.

Those eyes were like a deep whirlpool that swallowed up all light. Looking into them was like looking directly into an endless void.

Her facial features are delicate, and every detail reveals an indescribable beauty, but this beauty also carries a certain chilling weirdness.

"Teacher..., then, then that is..."

As Yegor's secretary, Mori looked at the huge nebula and looked at the presiding judge next to him with a trembling tone and horrified eyes.

"How many times have I told you to refer to your job title when you are working?" Yegor glared at his disappointing student. "Besides, you have been following me for a long time. You observe the Crystal Sky every day in the deep space base, and you are still scared by that thing!"

"Yes, Your Honor!" The clerk stood up straight and answered subconsciously, then said incoherently, "But..."

This cannot be blamed on him. On the etheric level, he has indeed seen many horrifying and incredible scenes.

But, now the things outside are in the real world, in the baseline reality!!!

The clerk tried to calm himself down and asked:

"What on earth is that thing?"

"Gaia." Yegor replied coldly.

"?" The clerk looked puzzled.

He knew that the word "Gaia" had a very important person and symbol in the etheric realm.

However, what does the huge entity in front have to do with 'Gaia'?

"You should have studied the Gaia hypothesis, or the planetary consciousness hypothesis," Yegor continued.

"I have learned about a paper published in the Terra Supernatural Academic Journal by a scholar named Lovelock from the Fog City Clock Tower and a green-robed wizard named Margulis from the Edici Federation. The paper states that the entire surface of Terra, including all life (biosphere), constitutes a self-regulating whole, which is called Gaia.

They believe that it is because of the emergence of life that the physical and chemical environment of Terra's surface, atmosphere and ocean has become comfortable and pleasant from the past to the present.

This hypothesis is completely contrary to the traditional view that life is constantly adapting to the environment of Terra, and that the evolution of life and the evolution of Terra are independent. Now scholars realize that life did not make Terra habitable for its own sake.

Gaia's regulation, making Terra more habitable, is characteristic of the entire evolutionary system including life, air, oceans, and rocks.

In other words, it is a large organism. They believe that the existence of life is due to Gaia's intentional guidance.

Critics of the theory argue that the two of them anthropomorphize Terra and treat it as a conscious being; critics point out that this hypothesis describes Terra as an entity with goals and intentions..."

At this point, the clerk seemed to react, and he looked at the projection on the virtual screen with a horrified expression.

"That thing couldn't be it!?!"

"Gaia - the laws from the baseline reality. They are also called Star Gods." Yegor said calmly, "Now in front of you is a Star God whose destination is Terra."

"Because of the Crystal Sky, He will actually arrive on Terra about 36 years later," Yegor said.

"He has always been there?" the clerk asked, "But I have never observed Him at the observation post before."

“Yes, He had been hiding before through His characteristics.

His hair can generate a stable field with a coverage range of 3000 kilometers, within which all abnormal phenomena will be permanently neutralized.

This component also has super-metaphoric properties, which can conceal the existence of the Star God and monitor the surrounding dynamics and baseline reality status in real time. In the past, only Eden could observe Him. The monitoring results of Him will be fed back to the central processing system of the deep space base, and I and other supervisory angels will be responsible for calibration.

His body can form an infinite and independent hyperdimensional space, which is synchronized with the real world. This space is immune to any crisis sequence-level doomsday scenario.

His hands are able to select specific targets and amplify their properties several times over. This function can be used to enhance or weaken the power of specific entities or intangibles.

His head automatically adjusts the intensity and method of attack according to the input commands. There are many different ways of attack, covering multiple dimensions such as narrative, plane, concept, and meme.

An energy field can be generated around this star god, which has a Mi Mu effect, strong radiation and infectiousness.

Its sphere of influence includes Terra's lithosphere, biosphere, atmosphere, and outer space.

This energy field will form colorless crystals at a certain concentration, which can induce biological ingestion. Once the infection amount exceeds a certain threshold, the biological individual will undergo an irreversible mutation process, including direct death and complete changes in body structure, and may eventually develop into a highly aggressive abnormal entity. "

Every time the presiding judge spoke a word in a calm tone, the clerk's eyebrows and heart began to tremble uncontrollably.

"besides……"

The presiding judge's explanation continued.

"His body theory also has an anomalous civilization group that does not belong to the baseline reality. They may have extremely high intelligence and technological levels, and their appearance is similar to some deep-sea invertebrate creatures. This civilization is currently in a state of cosmic heat death, and they are trying to transfer to other universes through anomalous means."

Hearing this, the clerk thought of something and spoke out his inner thoughts subconsciously, "You are not talking about... Hai Si!"

"Some of them did escape from his body." Yegor nodded, "But there is more than one cause for those things. Hai Si was singled out as a crisis sequence, and there are other complicated relationships behind it."

"Then why did He suddenly appear?" the clerk asked. Yegor replied, "Seventy-two hours after the crisis, two huge portals appeared in the sky above Terra. The people in the central containment room called them the Heaven's Gate and the Hell's Gate."

"Ever since the two portals appeared, the Star God's condition has been very abnormal. Before the two portals appeared, the Central Containment Room estimated that the Star God would arrive on Terra in 227 million years. After the two portals appeared, it was directly reduced to 36 years. According to the current situation, I think the people in the Central Containment Room need to calculate the distance again."

“……” The clerk was silent.

A deep sense of despair and emptiness arose in his heart.

He knew how powerful the Kingdom of Heaven was. When he was in college, he always thought that the Kingdom of Heaven was invincible and the most powerful in the world.

However, as he graduated from both colleges, he became more and more aware of the enemies of the Kingdom of Heaven.

From time to time, there was always a feeling of... powerlessness in his heart.

There are more than one enemy like that.

How can the Kingdom of Heaven resist?

How to win?

Yegor seemed to be aware of Morley's emotions. His eyes were still fixed on the screen, but his voice sounded low and powerful:

“You feel powerless.”

Mori's body shook slightly, and the disappointment in his eyes became more obvious.

"Yes, teacher..."

He called Yegor "teacher" again, but this time Yegor did not scold him.

At this moment, Yegor just turned around, his eyes like a cold blade, shooting straight at Mori, but that coldness contained a burning heat.

"Morley, you should have often heard that old man Felden often quoted to his students: 'There is only one kind of true heroism in the world, and that is to love life after recognizing its truth.'

He said that, and he always said it to you. He and I or other elders in heaven know that the enemies we face may be stronger than we can imagine, and their power may be beyond our understanding, but this does not mean that we should succumb to powerlessness. "

“The power of the Kingdom of Heaven does not lie in our omnipotence, but in our never-flinching attitude towards any enemy. Every great battle of the Kingdom of Heaven in history was not won because we had no fear, but because we chose to move forward despite fear.”

"You think the enemy is scary?"

"Yes, they are indeed terrible, but it is precisely because of their strength that our struggle is more meaningful."

“Remember, victory doesn’t come to us, we have to go to it.”

"The Kingdom of Heaven exists to fight against those unbeatable enemies and to protect everything we cherish. If you feel powerless at this moment, that is your true test. You can choose to be consumed by this feeling of powerlessness and become a prisoner of fear, or you can choose to stand up, face it, and defeat it."

"You have to understand one thing, the kingdom of heaven is not made up of undefeated warriors, but of warriors who stand up despite defeat. We are not invincible, but we will keep fighting until victory belongs to us."

The clerk lowered his head in shame, feeling ashamed of his momentary cowardice.

He quickly raised his head and his eyes gradually regained their luster.

Yegor turned his head with a cold expression, and his eyes, which seemed icy cold, flashed a rare warmth that Molly could not see.

But this trace of warmth was soon covered by coldness again.

A line of red text appeared in front of him.

【Doomsday scene: Double Moon!】

[Resolution Assembly: You have been authorized to use the fifth house of the zodiac [Leo]. Before the double moon is formed and affects Terra's tidal force, crustal stress, rotation, geomagnetic field and other related factors, smash it! ]

[Eden: The Gospel Legion projection permission has been opened——]

"The double moon phenomenon..." Yegor's heart was filled with terrifying murderous intent. At this moment, he was reading the shared intelligence provided by Eden.

The above explains the reason why the Star God suddenly appeared from his hidden state - someone is pulling the Star God through some kind of [miracle creation].

And behind this, there is chaos fueling the flames.

"You are trying to use the Star God to prove the miracle, but you don't even realize that you have the life to enjoy this miracle."

the other side.

In that place full of snowy scenery, an ancient stone box lay tightly, engraved with complicated spell patterns.

Its design is full of classic and mysterious atmosphere, which makes people feel ominous and oppressive.

Boom——

There seemed to be a huge gravitational force around the box, which carried the box downwards and created a huge deep pit.

There were popping sounds coming from all around the box. It was shaking wildly and spinning as fast as dice.

At this moment, 2 hours and 56 minutes have passed since the fourth sword-wielder of Heaven was sealed.

The time goes forward 24 hours.

Oaxaca Chichi.

For the believers of the Church of the Broken God, January 1591, 1 was destined not to be an ordinary day.

Today, the top leaders of the Orthodox Church hold sacrifices here for the legendary three holy wise men.

A few weeks before the sacrifice begins, pilgrims begin to flock in, and their destination will be the Holy Machinery Church located in the center of the Mechanical Parish.

In the 12th century BC, the once prosperous Mechanicus Empire collapsed amid internal and external troubles, and the relics of the Broken God disappeared into the long river of history along with the empire.

But believers still preserve the temples built by the empire in Oaxaca and elsewhere.

Since then, this church, which contains a large number of holy words, has been regarded by various factions as the supreme holy place of the Church of the Broken God.

On January 1591, 1, the temple was crowded with pilgrims from all over the world. They believed in various sects: the Broken Church, the Cogwheel Orthodoxy, or the various new sects that had sprung up like mushrooms after the Industrial Revolution.

The few houses in the Mechanical Parish had already been rented out, and pilgrims sleeping in the open air could be seen everywhere.

Believers will take out their long-treasured gears, clocks, and various mechanical products and trade them with other believers.

The poor Orthodox believers may not be so lucky. Being penniless, they have no choice but to remove the densely packed mechanical implants on their bodies in exchange for Weibo's travel expenses.

On the day of the sacrifice, Orthodox priests brought holy oil to the Holy Arms Church and performed the anointing ceremony together with the priests of the Broken Church.

It was a rare day when there was no quarrel or fighting.

While the priests were holding the ceremony, a man in a black robe suddenly appeared in the city.

Three hours later, when the believers contacted the priests to open the temple gate because they had not left the temple for a long time, they found...

The temple was already a river of blood.

Three minutes later, the three great knightly orders of the Kingdom of Heaven marched straight in and captured the city of Kisch.

Four hours later, the Wandman Newspaper editor's article "The Second Sword Bearer in Heaven, Muhammad, massacred the Orthodox priests, and the three major knightly orders captured the city of Kishi" became the headline of all major genealogical forums in Terra.

It is obvious that this was a long-planned military activity.

Some people said that this was Heaven's revenge for the 72 hours of crisis, and some people said that there was something hidden in the city of Kishi that made Heaven... fearful or excited.

And some people discovered that on this day, there were special fluctuations in the institutions stationed by the Kingdom of Heaven in various places on Terra.

Whether it is outside the starry sky, on land, or even in the ocean...

A large number of anomalies and angels were highly active on this day, but they were also highly dispersed.

It was as if something was deliberately guiding it.
