The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 476: Eternal Disappearance and the God of Truth
……

Inside the hot and humid flesh cave of the giant evil spirit.

Matthew used Ye Li's spiritual imprint as a medium to infiltrate the spiritual seeds from the Void Imprint into the bodies of the Golden Ring and the God of Starry Night.

Take this as an opportunity.

The Great Prophecy has leveraged an even more powerful force.

Under the guidance of the Void bloodline.

Matthew successfully "pushed" the giant evil spirit towards the endless void!

The process is so slow.

It's so difficult again.

He could feel a powerful repulsive force preventing all this from happening—

There is not only the resistance of the God of the Star Realm himself and the terrible wishes of the beings in the Star Realm.

And there is the terrifying reflection from the original universe!
That's why Matthew had a hard time facing the giant evil spirit!

“It’s so difficult…”

"At this rate, the entire exile process will last three or four days!"

The more Matthew learned, the more he understood Isabel's decision.

This kind of fateful mapping power is really terrifying.

He was like a ruthless hammer, hitting Matthew's head repeatedly!
In comparison.

The Starry Night God's own resistance was more like a little playful prank.

"The key point lies in the magic goddess Ye Li..."

Matthew realized the problem.

Ye Li's destruction of the world may be the core of the mapping of the original world.

Only by destroying as many traces of Ye Li as possible can we successfully exile the giant evil god!
"turn out to be……"

"Is this the most important thing you left for me?"

Matthew felt the heart beating slowly in Paradise Lost.

Countless spells are constantly contained in this heart.

But the first one.

But it is a spell called "Eternal Disappearance"!

And this was exactly the magical spell that Ye Li used to commit suicide.

Anyone killed by this spell will have all traces of their existence in this world wiped out.

But Ye Li is an exception.

Her spell worked, and she died quietly, but her traces remained.

Matthew guessed that this was due to the power of reflection.

But Ye Li's successful death also indirectly shows that the power of fateful mapping is not unshakable.

With Matthew's current ability.

Of course, it is impossible to directly activate the magical spells in the Pure Heart.

But he was able to use the authority of Paradise Lost to perform a simple imitation of eternal passing using the energy of the founder as a simulation.

This power certainly cannot kill the magic goddess Ye Li or the god of starry night.

But it is not too difficult to destroy a spiritual imprint that is like a candle in the wind.

"I don't want to leave! I want to stay!"

The manic voice of the Starry Night God rang in Matthew's ears.

Corresponding.

It was Ye Li's gentle call:

"Let me go."

"My last wish is to disappear peacefully from this world..."

The Starry Night God seemed furious:

"You are one with me now!"

"You are not qualified to make your own decisions..."

"Live, we want to live, we want to stay in the material world!"

Matthew had pity in his eyes, but he did not hesitate to use the authority of the founder to complete the simulation!

"rest in peace……"

He sighed softly.

A light white shock wave pierced into Ye Li's clone from Paradise Lost.

In an instant.

Ye Li's spiritual imprint that was swallowed by the God of Starry Night disappeared without a trace.

"Ha ha……"

A laugh filled with relief was faintly heard.

The name Ye Li suddenly disappeared from Matthew's mind.

He stood there in a daze.

I found that I could no longer remember the name of the magic goddess!
Before Matthew could react.

A powerful force burst out from him, and he quickly realized that his exile process had become incredibly easy.

The irresistible power of reflection disappeared without a trace the moment the mark of the Goddess of Magic disappeared.

The only remaining God of Starry Night possesses the power of both the Golden Ring and the High-Dimensional Shadow.

It is no longer possible to resist Matthew's exile!
"No!"

In the miserable cry of the God of Starry Night.

Ye Li's clone collapsed automatically and turned into a pool of mud.

The golden ring also melted and collapsed as quickly as a wax figure in fire.

The entire giant monster was dismembered at the speed of an avalanche!

All over Aindo.

The layer of flesh that was originally covered by the evil spirit quickly dissipated like melting ice and snow.

In just a dozen breaths.

Everything material around Matthew became invisible.

They just disappeared out of thin air.

That's real disappearance!
……

"Hint: You have successfully used the "Great Prophecy" to exile the super mixture!
The giant evil god entered the void world.

Because of carrying your Void Brand.

When you die and enter the void, they will become your subordinates.

If you have never entered the void world.

The giant evil will return to Eindor 100 years later to continue its unfinished mission of destruction...

The Void Brand on you has become more powerful!

You need more substance to fill the void of the imprint...

The Void Lord Yukrus's favorability towards you has greatly increased! 」

……

"Success?"

Matthew looked around suddenly and found himself floating in mid-air. There was only fog in the air. The giant evil spirit and the God of Starry Night had disappeared.

at the same time.

He felt the changes from Paradise Lost——

That innocent heart turned into a heart-shaped stone after the death of the magic goddess!

Without anyone touching it.

The stone broke in two.

"Now that the goddess of magic has disappeared, can the innocent heart also not remain forever?"

Matthew felt a little disappointed.

Can be followed immediately.

He found two symbols in the stone.

The two symbols, one red and one purple, are engraved on both sides of the stone, like two magic runes, but they are much more profound than ordinary runes.

The red one seems to be the key to the secret of love.

The purple one is more complicated.

Matthew approached and sensed it slightly. Unexpectedly, the two symbols flew out of the stone automatically and directly merged into the authority of Paradise Lost!

……

"Hint: You have obtained the key to the "Secret Treasure of Love" and the secret spell of the "Gate of Ether"!"

……

The Gate of Ether.

Matthew suddenly realized.

Ronan once mentioned to him that the key to the Gate of Ether might be hidden in the portrait of the Goddess of Magic.

Enter behind the Ether Gate.

It is possible to obtain the legendary supreme source of magic and become the supreme controller of etheric authority.

Matthew was previously very interested in etheric authority.

But after the conversation with Isabel and the goddess of magic.

He had much more respect for the etheric authority.

Under normal circumstances.

In order to enter the Ether Gate, one must at least have the strength of a higher-level legend.

"Let's talk about Advanced Legend first..."

Matthew thought honestly.

"The timing of your Great Prophecy was terrible, and your simulation of Vanishing Divine Art was even worse..."

Isabel's voice came from Matthew's left:

"But congratulations on successfully banishing that monster."

"You have saved Eindor."

Matthew said silently:
"I just delayed the process of world destruction."

"In 100 years, they will come back."

Isabel said:

“Delay is salvation.”

"Let alone 100 years, even 10 years is a great salvation."

"The world is changing, and the strong are looking for a way out. Perhaps a hundred years from now, the giant evil gods and the Aether Chaos will no longer be a problem?"

Matthew looked at Isabel with some surprise.

It's not like she would say that.

Isabel had a serious look on her face.

That is in this process.

Matthew realized that Isabel and the goddess of magic could never be the same person.

The two people's faces are really similar.

But the temperament is too different.

The Magic Goddess is more friendly, while Isabel is more cold and arrogant.

at the same time.

Matthew also noticed that Isabel's facial features had become more childish than before.

She looks like an exquisite doll.

"At this rate, she's not going to turn into a baby, is she?"

Matthew couldn't help but think.

"Did you just use the power of the void?"

Isabel suddenly asked.

Matthew nodded without hesitation.

"Smart idea."

Isabel said calmly:

“Perhaps this is the only solution.”

"But you must remember that there are no gifts without reason in this world. The Void Lord's special treatment of you must mean different expectations."

"Once you fail to meet this expectation, there may be serious backlash."

Matthew nodded with a heavy expression.

Of course he knew that the power given to him by Yukrus was a double-edged sword.

What I am doing today might even be like drinking poison to quench thirst.

But at this critical juncture.

Matthew had no choice.

Isabel was going to leave anyway, and she knew it all, whether it was the Void Bloodline or the Lost Paradise.

Matthew simply asked her frankly:
"I just used the Great Prophecy to banish that evil spirit."

"I can feel that the Void Mark on my body has become significantly deeper."

"This is not surprising, but for some reason, the Lord of the Void is actually very happy about this matter."

"Shouldn't he have hoped that the exiled gods would tear apart the material layer of Iendor so that the Void could descend sooner?"

"Why is it that he doesn't mind if I delay this, but instead feels happy about it?"

Matthew's heart was filled with doubts.

Isabel thought for a moment:
"For a void beast like Yukrus, time alone is meaningless."

“There may be no difference between now and a hundred years from now.”

"In his eyes, everything in the mirror world is already predetermined. This place is bound to become a breeding ground for giant beasts to take off."

"The only thing he cares about is how much heat the mirror world can generate before it shatters."

heat?

Matthew repeated the word.

"The process of destruction is never a one-shot process."

“It’s slow and irresistible.”

“It’s like frying an egg.”

Isabel explained:
“You can’t fry an egg all at once.”

“There are many steps involved in the process.”

"So is the advent of the void—

First, when the news comes out, there will be a period of panic;

It was later confirmed or refuted;

After so much back and forth, it finally came on stage one day;
It won’t swallow up the world all at once;
Instead, it repeatedly squeezes out all the heat of the world in the long tug of war.

Eventually, it will become the nourishment for the giant beasts to take off..."

Seeing that Matthew was still a little confused.

Isabel Quick said:

"Outside the universe, there is dead silence, and so is the void."

"The difference between the material world and the void is heat."

"The beasts crave heat."

"And heat is also one of the evidences of the existence of living things in the material world."

“That is the power that only life can bring out.”

“Only extreme emotions can squeeze out the greatest heat when applied to individuals.”

“Natural, repeated disasters are the best way to squeeze.”

"Love is actually..."

Speaking of it.

Matthew already understood.

The scenes of life and death, natural disasters, man-made tragedies, grudges and love that take place in the multiverse every day...these strong emotions that represent the existence of all living beings in the world are strong evidence of the existence of the material world and all living beings.

This is also the only reason why the behemoths are eyeing the material world covetously.

They cannot generate this heat themselves.

They can only use the creatures in the material world as nourishment and carry out repeated harvests.

Because it has to be harvested repeatedly.

Therefore, a disaster like the Void Coming will not end all at once.

But it will happen over and over again.

Until the last drop of heat is squeezed out...

The entire universe fell into silence.

They will give up!

No wonder Yuklus was pleased.

Matthew saved the world, which was equivalent to completing a repetition. The fear caused by the disaster and the joy of surviving the disaster made the material world burst out with greater heat.

This is exactly what the void creatures covet the most!

Matthew, who figured out the cruel nature behind it all, was not discouraged.

Instead, it ignited a fierce fighting spirit.

Isabel next to him suddenly said:

"you're right."

"If I had the chance, I would try to break that mirror."

"After I go back to the original world, I will find a chance to send you something." Matthew was a little surprised:

"Then how can I find the things you sent?"

Isabel raised her chin with pride:

"The things I sent will find their way to you."

While the two were talking.

The surrounding fog quickly dissipated.

Dense cracks appeared in this space——

Although the evil gods have been exiled.

But the backflow of ether and the tearing of the material layer have never gone away for a moment.

If not resolved in time.

Canning City and the surrounding areas will face a horrific tear comparable to the fall of Tianlun Palace half a year ago!
At that time, there were also secondary planes that filled in as a buffer for the destruction of the material layer.

There aren’t many secondary planes that can fill in all these holes now!

"Let me do it."

Isabel said calmly.

next second.

Her figure flew upwards more than a hundred meters.

A faint light of a clear color emanated from her body, and under the illumination of that faint light, her appearance, which looked like that of a young girl, also underwent a startling change -

From an innocent and lovely little girl.

It turned into a short, rotten, and terrifying skeleton!
"That is……"

"Lich!"

"It's still a divine lich!"

Matthew was only surprised for a moment and then felt relieved.

No wonder Isabel gave people such a cold and arrogant feeling, she had already transformed herself into a divine lich!
"I'm afraid this is also the key to controlling the Chaos Puzzle Lock..."

Matthew realized this.

The next part was something he didn't quite understand.

He only saw a large spider web-like crack appear in the space behind Isabel.

Dark green chains extended out from the body of the divine lich.

Those countless chains forcibly locked the entire material layer near Canning City!

For a while.

The space seemed to be frozen!

"Is that... a Chaos Puzzle Lock?"

Matthew recognized the glowing object inside the divine lich.

"Yes."

"Chaos and order are two sides of the same coin. Using Chaos Puzzle Locks to suppress the collapse of the material plane is a perfectly normal method."

A familiar female voice sounded in Matthew's ears.

Matthew looked back.

It was Surel whom I hadn’t seen for a long time!

It's not just Surel.

In the northern sky, a figure was approaching quickly. Although Matthew could not see the other person's face clearly, the powerful and suffocating aura had already revealed the identity of the visitor.

The divine mage Linde.

"Come here..."

Matthew asked hesitantly.

"Of course we are here to help."

Surel smiled faintly.

Under Matthew's silent gaze, Surel and Lind actually helped stabilize the material layer near Canning.

The three great magicians took action.

The collapse of the material layer was immediately curbed.

Matthew also quickly figured out the connection -

Surel and Lind are only interested in the Golden Ring, and now the Golden Ring has just been exiled. They still have the opportunity to compete for the Golden Ring, but it has been postponed to a hundred years later.

That being the case.

There is no potential conflict between these two and Isabel or Matthew at the moment.

Both are Alliance mages.

We are all protectors of this land.

It is reasonable to offer help without affecting one's own interests.

But Matthew felt.

They did this more to save Isabel's face.

For Surel and Lind.

Isabel's departure was great news, but in the period before she left, they had to be careful that the strongest woman in the alliance didn't go crazy.

Under such circumstances.

It is only natural to do a favor.

However, the stability of the material plane only solves one of the two major crises facing the City of Order.

soon.

Even though Matthew was in the suburbs, he could feel the ether storm in the sky.

That is a sign that the chaotic ether is further pouring back from the etheric plane into the material world!
"Such a huge amount of Ether is impossible to control."

"If powerful mages like us get even a little closer, it's possible that the source of the ether backflow will explode, which could lead to an even greater disaster..."

Lind looked far away in the direction of the City of Order with a very serious expression.

Surel said with a smile:

"As long as the Lord of the City of Order can afford it, then all this won't be a problem."

At this time, Isabel had already freed herself from the state of divine lich.

She returned to her human form and said coldly:

"You don't need to do anything."

"On this land, mages are not the only ones who can control the ether..."

She just finished speaking.

A rumbling sound came from under the ground of the City of Order!
Matthew followed the sound and identified it.

That was the voice coming from the direction of the tower where he had talked to Butterfly before!

"Go and see for yourself."

Isabel said calmly:

"You started this storm of chaos, and it is you who should put an end to it."

“It is a legend only if it continues from beginning to end.”

Matthew nodded.

He looked at Isabel, who was getting younger and younger, with some reluctance.

Then he rushed to the city as quickly as possible.

Top floor of the bell tower.

Matthew stood at the edge of the floor, looking at the square in front of him that was sinking deeper and deeper, listening to the rumbling sounds coming from underground.

soon.

A huge, irregularly moving white object appeared in his field of vision!
The object that emerged from the ground looked like a huge white larva.

Its body is round, with nested layers of skin, many tiny claws on its lower body, and its back is covered with dense fur.

It gives people a creepy feeling.

But when Matthew looked closely, he found that this was not a real larva.

It is a purely mechanical creation!

Yes.

The white larva was made entirely of metal.

Every wriggle of the larvae.

There will be loud mechanical rotation sounds, gear meshing sounds, and more complex friction and collision sounds!
Rumble!
Buzz!
A large amount of indescribable noise mixed together, giving people a strong sense of anxiety.

Coupled with that ugly and disgusting appearance.

Most people would probably think that this ugly mechanical larva is part of the disaster.

Matthew took a breath.

He watched the mechanical larvae crawl out of the ground and lie motionless at the edge of the square.

Finally I couldn't help but ask:

"what is that?"

behind his back.

The original Giza nun in a black loose robe responded calmly:
"The God of Truth."

God of truth?

Matthew was startled.

The nun said:
"This will be the greatest constructed life in the world."

"He possesses incredibly powerful strength, enough to deal with the threats of all destabilizing factors in the multiverse."

"He can enforce the laws of Canning City fairly and impartially."

"He can transform truth and law from an ideal into reality."

"Butterfly dreams of using him to replace elemental life to protect the City of Order."

"He spent half his life transforming the God of Truth from a conceptual draft in the Cybertron laboratory into a real constructed life."

“This is certainly offensive to the Truth Church.”

"So until the time is right, he can only hide everything underground."

"He is the greatest artificer the world has ever seen."

"Unfortunately……"

"The God of Truth is still immature..."

There was a hint of worry in the nun's eyes.

now.

Matthew also understood what Butterfly planned to use to contain the excess ether in the city!

He could feel it clearly.

All the ether that had lost its target due to the exile of the giant evil god poured into the body of the white larva at an extremely fast speed!

The larva is like another divine monster.

Absorbing all etheric matter extremely greedily!
Along with this process.

The size of the larvae is also expanding rapidly!

"Absorbing huge amounts of etheric energy, transforming into a super-constructed life form..."

Matthew barely understood the butterfly's design.

In order to give the God of Truth the violence to uphold the law, Butterfly used the means of the Artificer to give him the ability to devour ether.

The activation of the God of Truth itself also requires a large amount of ether as energy.

If the design and production of this construct itself is mature enough.

Then Canning City now is indeed a good opportunity to activate the God of Truth.

But listen to what the nun means.

This construct doesn't seem to be fully designed?
Matthew continued to observe the changes of the larvae with a hint of worry in his heart.

As the amount of ether injected increases.

The white larvae's body surface is covered with layer upon layer of thin films.

These films appear to be made of countless brushed metal wires.

Soon the entire body of the larva was covered.

Ten minutes later.

The larvae were bound by countless metal wires into a huge metal cocoon.

The metal cocoon is still absorbing the ether in the city.

at the same time.

As the material layer gradually stabilizes.

The channels between the etheric plane and the material world were also closed one by one by Isabel.

The ether concentration in Canning City began to drop at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Everything seems to be moving in a positive direction.

But Matthew's eyes were still full of worry.

He saw unusual and violent movements in the metal cocoon.

It was the butterfly itself that was controlling the larvae, continuing to absorb excess ether!
"This level of ether has probably seriously exceeded the upper limit that the God of Truth could accommodate when it was first designed..."

Matthew was worried and a little surprised.

If it were a wizard, after absorbing so much chaos ether, he would have turned into a monster like a giant evil spirit.

But Butterfly and his God of Truth showed no signs of collapse.

The artificer indeed has many merits in controlling the ether!

But gradually.

The movement of the giant metal cocoon slowed down.

Finally, it even came to a standstill.

Matthew sensed the changes inside the cocoon, and the worry on his face deepened.

"According to the normal process, how would the God of Truth be activated?"

he asks.

The nun acquiesced:
"According to the butterfly's idea."

"After absorbing a large amount of ether, the true God of Truth will break out of the metal chrysalis and transform into a super mechanical life with the appearance of a giant butterfly."

“I don’t really know the specific process.”

"But Butterfly told me that there may be some technical deficiencies in the process of pupation and cocooning..."

"He said he couldn't find enough fire to ignite mechanical life."

"Even if he himself is willing to become the soul of the God of Truth..."

Matthew nodded.

This was pretty much what he perceived.

The butterfly's early pupation process went smoothly.

Gradually, I felt like I was stuck.

Mechanical life is also life.

The machinist certainly has unique insights into mechanical creation, but how could ordinary people afford the spiritual energy required to create such a huge machine?

He needs a huge fire of life!

"Let me give you a hand."

"By the way, let's make this fire burn even more fiercely!"

Think about this.

Matthew opened Paradise Lost and came to the giant metal cocoon with a determined look on his face.

next second.

He pointed his index finger and murmured:

"Manifestation, the divine phoenix egg!"

After consuming part of the founder's energy.

Matthew successfully resurrected the Phoenix Egg, which was also destroyed by the Singularity Cannon, in Paradise Lost!
Followed by.

He moved the divine phoenix egg out of the Lost Paradise and placed it together with the giant metal cocoon!
"Peggy..."

"Make a fire!"

Matthew muttered to himself.

Ever since.

A tiny flame suddenly appeared on the shell of the divine phoenix egg and the giant metal cocoon.

In a place where the ether is so rich.

Any spark could cause a violent explosion.

What's more, what Matthew released was the Gordon Fire from the original heaven!

All of a sudden.

The prairie fire ignited everything around it.

When it is.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger.

The explosions became more and more intense.

Infinite ether rushed forward, fueling the flames to soar into the sky, forming a pillar of fire that was powerful enough to pierce the sky!
In the pillar of fire.

The giant metal cocoon and the divine phoenix egg both emitted clear and joyful singing sounds.

that moment.

Matthew could feel it.

between the two.

It seems as if an extremely subtle connection has been created!
