Chapter 421 The Spear of Destiny
【arrive. 】

The "I don't know how many" layer of the sky-high clouds is an area so high that it can't be counted. This is the base of the Lei Department in this world.

The heavenly soldiers flying around were like white doves shuttled up and down, heading to higher or lower floors.There is a handwritten sign hanging outside the floor, with the words "Nantianmen" crookedly written on it.

This place is the entrance to the "heaven" of this world.Although there are many areas above and below that are considered heaven, the door is here.

"Who wrote this sign?"

[This is not your handwriting. They can only see your homework, so they removed the words Nantianmen.I'll make another one that looks better later, but I'll hang this one up for now. 】

"Forget it. Next time, remember to copy Wen Yuan. His homework is also with me. Before I return it, you should practice quickly. Or you can find the printed version in the textbook as before."

[Okay, okay, let them remember it.We're ready to go, but let's meet someone first. 】

"Huh? Are there any acquaintances of mine here?"

"Here it is." Behind the sign of Nantianmen, Phaethon said, leaning on the pillar.

"How did you come?"

"Because she asked me to come. I used the former junior general to translate and I had a written discussion with her. Let her tell you the specific reason why I came."

[Because you want to find the place where you can best see the essence of things, right?Find the best place to investigate.This world is actually quite big. There are many places in the three continents, but the gaze of heaven on them has not yet been established.So, I'm going to use arcane magic to find the answer. 】

"Divination?"

[I tried, but divination is not very good.Because you have to determine at least a baseline state before you can calculate subsequent variables, which I haven't done yet.However, there is another artifact that can do it. 】

"Spear of the Sun God?"

【Yes.But...woohoo, I really couldn't figure out how to use this thing, so I invited its previous owner.You can ask Phaethon, and you can also ask her how she found you at that time. 】

Phaethon did not hide anything and replied directly: "Because the threads of fate are concentrated here like silkworm cocoons. I thought you were plucking the strings of fate and wanted to do something. Later I found out that you were just caught up in it. Got in."

"The thread of fate? Is this some abstract metaphor?"

"No, it's a concrete expression. There really is such a thread."

"Try it." Shangluo took off the baggage and pulled out the Spear of the Sun from inside——

"Wait a minute." Phaethon raised his hand, "It belongs to you now, I can't use it. Unless you are willing to lend it to me, this is the rule."

"Okay." Shangluo took a step forward with the spear, held the spear handle and handed it over.Phaethon also stretched out his hand and caught it with him.

"Then what?" Shangluo asked.

"Through Shangluo (hereinafter referred to as Party A) and Phaethon Yulicia Helios (hereinafter referred to as Party B), through equal and friendly negotiations, the parties have reached the following agreement on the borrowed 'Spear of the Sun' - Party B promises that it will use the Spear of the Sun if and only with the permission of Party A; it will and will only use it for purposes approved by Party A; during the period of using the Spear of the Sun, Party B will not Party A will not violate Party A's instructions and intentions. When Party B violates the agreement, the agreement will be terminated quickly, and Party B will lose the right to use the Spear of the Sun. Party A has the final right to interpret this agreement - you, Shangluo, as Does Party A agree?"

"It's so troublesome."

"That's the rule in our family. In short, the final interpretation is in your hands, you can change it as you like. Are you willing to lend it to me?"

"I am willing."

"." Phaethon didn't speak, just looked up at him.

"Ah? Did I say something wrong?"

"If you say more words, you will die. Please tell me more completely. There is ambiguity in this sentence."

"Okay, I am willing to lend you the Spear of the Sun in my hand? Is that okay? Of course I am willing. Why should I hand over the spear if I don't want to?" "Okay. No problem." Phaethon said. He took the Spear of the Sun in his hand and danced in the air, "Why does it seem to have become heavier?"

"It's probably because it's been charging. Can you handle it?"

"It's a bit difficult, but it's okay. Give in." Phaethon turned around with his spear and drew a circle on the ground. "You retreat outside the circle."

Shangluo and the surrounding heavenly soldiers took a step back.

"Huh!" Phaethon took a breath:

"This is the power of all power, breaking through the tough! This is how the world is created, and miracles can be achieved based on this. This is the exact and flawless truth. I declare that the great work of the sun is completed here!"

After reciting, she pierced the tip of the spear into the ground and half-knelt on the ground.Within the ring, the brilliance shines brightly.Spider-web-like cracks spread from the point of penetration.

The cracks extended to the empty space outside the tower and into the distance - but it was not the floor tiles of the Tower of Babel that were shattered, but the barrier between reality and magic.

"Hold it." Phaethon, who was half kneeling on the ground, raised his head and asked.

"After holding it, do I ask a question? My question should be, 'I want to know key information that will give me insight into the future of this world.'"

"There is no need to ask. This is not that guy's Delphi Oracle. Don't ask questions like papyrus. Just hold it, and the fabric of fate will answer your questions. Come to the circle when you hold it, and no one else will. move."

"Yes." Shangluo stepped into the circle and held the other end of the Sun God's Spear——

There was a snap, like the "reverse" of a shattered mirror, and everything returned to normal.Only the tip of the spear penetrated deeply into the ground of Babel Tower, leaving an indelible mark at the entrance of Nantianmen.

However, the mark is not as simple as a pit.There is blue "liquid" filling it, but the "liquid" is not an entity, it is just a virtual image.The virtual image not only stayed in the pit, but also had a straight silk thread extending out to Shangluo's chest.

"What is this?" A thread came over, making him feel confused.

"That one on the ground is the anchor point, the mark you left. The blue represents the sympathetic law, and the other end of the connection is the answer."

"Any other colors?"

"Yes. Blue is the law of sympathy, green is the law of contact, and red is the law of causation. Different connections represent different ways of connection. The blue law of sympathy represents some kind of super-distance symbolic connection between A and B. , just like Guan Gong and his statue; the green law of contact means that A is part of B, or conversely, the two have at least been in physical contact, just like E. coli; red represents events, this general situation is related to people . Did you have doubts in your mind just now? It’s simple, you can find the answer by starting from this anchor point and searching along the line.”

"Then what this means now"

"Blue means that there is some connection between the object on your body and the answer you are looking for. But there is no actual contact between the two, and there is no direct causal relationship. Well, generally blue has the most sympathetic links. It's of little value, but you can definitely find it if you keep chasing. If there are green or red ones, it means there will be a major breakthrough. However, the sympathetic link is continuous, and you can definitely go down by following the blue line. But green or red Red may be a dead end, or an endpoint. On the contrary, the sympathetic link cannot exist apart from reality, so it must not be the end of the problem in itself, it must be linked to an actual object or event."

"I have a question. How long is this line? How many knots is it at most?"

"Ha, you thought you would encounter something like Apollonia, right? No, these lines are not headless. Because according to the law of six degrees of separation theory, the 'normal' maximum distance for a sympathetic link between two objects , it is six floors, there are rarely seven floors, and it is almost impossible to have eight floors. So if you look for six or seven at most, you will definitely find the answer - but the premise is that you go in the right direction."

"Isn't it still possible to go right?"

"Yes. Because green and red may be dead ends, because they may lead to part of the problem, or the cause and effect of the problem, rather than the problem itself. But even dead ends will provide key information that can help you judge which path is correct. Yes. I was able to find you so quickly because after I asked, there was a blood-red karma on my body that was directly connected to you. Ha, the result is indeed a big karma. I have suffered retribution. You this time Well, you want to ask about the key information related to 'the direction of this world'? Then the next clue should be in your arms. What's in your arms?"

"Wait a minute, this position is... eh?" He took out the thing and said:
"Ball number two? So that means?"

"You have to ask questions and get his permission before you can go to the next step. Oh? Did the connection come out directly? He seems to be absolutely obeying you subconsciously, so there is no need to ask. So which direction is the next step? Which continent?"

"That's the Ministry of Water's Buzhou. It turns out that's how it is. It's been locked step by step. This thing is really easy to use."

"So it seems that I am right to stay. Apollonia, that lazy idiot, has no mobility at all, and there is no way for her to use it. The Spear of the Sun must be moved. Come on, let's move, you have to see The information is over there. But one question seems to have been answered - the water snake may have a lot to do with this future. Is the current state of the water snake absent? The absence of the water snake means that this world leads to a certain a key element of our future.”
