From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 556 Original
"Five billion years ago..."

Gillan repeated in a whisper, startled.

What a long time ago that was!

According to previous scientific theories, the sun is only about 45 billion years old. However, the "director's" camera can capture the more distant past, as if it can give a glimpse of the original scene of the birth of the universe.

But Jilan was puzzled.

What exactly does the “director” want to show him?
This world is not the Earth of the previous life, so everything may be different from what you know.

With doubts in mind, Gillan approached the chair floating in the starry sky and came behind the "director" in an astronaut uniform.

The "director" was lying in a chair, and the deep and bright starry sky was reflected on his spherical helmet that was as shiny as a mirror.

Without any movement from him, a giant camera with a strange shape next to him slowly moved and pointed in a certain direction.

Immediately, Jilan saw a picture appear on the retro square-headed TV it was connected to -

It was a dark and silent universe.

There was no light or sound, as if the TV had malfunctioned and the screen was black.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Two boundless galaxies of unknown billions of light years in size appeared on the screen, one was a dull gray-purple color, and the other was a dazzling golden-red color.

They slowly approached each other until they collided.

Although it was silent, Gillan could feel the terrifying shock wave generated at that moment. The unimaginable energy even caused the universe to be filled with collapsed black holes and cosmic strings, blowing up "dust" tens of thousands of light years away.

There are countless of these "dust particles", and each one is a star.

The two galaxies, one purple and one gold, rubbed against each other, collided with each other, and bit each other... Just like the whispering of lovers, it brought out a long tidal tail.

Countless gases and matter were compressed by the terrible force of gravity, giving birth to hundreds of millions of stars. Countless stars died, collapsed and shattered in this process, and were born and died, over and over again, in an infinite cycle.

The two galaxies gradually intertwined and became indistinguishable from each other.

The central area collapsed into a white hole, and the horizon of the edge lines was distorted and could not be seen clearly.

"These are two 'Outer Gods'."

At this moment, the "director" spoke, and his voice echoed in Gillan's mind.

Outer god?

Jilan was stunned and very confused.

But fortunately, the "director" immediately gave an explanation:
"They are an existence that is older and more advanced than Si Chen or even Si Sui, and are a symbol of the rules of the universe. They are blind and foolish, and act according to instinct. They do not have what humans call attributes, nor do they have a sense of good and evil, right and wrong, morality, or humanity..."

"They are extremely powerful and dangerous, and can easily destroy any material world with just a breath."

"I call it 'Above the Law', the supreme being above the law. And what you saw was the scene when two Outer Gods met. Of course, they didn't look like this, but the picture projected in your mind is something you can understand, because their existence is beyond the scope of human cognition..."

"138 billion years ago, the outer gods 'Moth' and 'Eternal Sun' met, entangled with each other, and finally destroyed together. They are also the creator gods of this world, the founders of the God's Hometown Mahab, and the original source of the Si Sui Si Chen."

The director said, chuckling.

"It's not an exaggeration to call them the original Father God and Mother God. And this is the original secret history that cannot be traced back. If it weren't for 'Bilan', I would not have been able to film it..."

"The 'moth' pursued the light and fell hopelessly in love with 'Eternal Sun'. He tested love with his body and burned to ashes. However, the unbearable weight caused 'Eternal Sun' to collapse, collapse and fission. In the end, the two together turned into a new world."

"The power of the outer gods is incomprehensible, but they seem to hold some kind of supreme authority... If the law is likened to fruit, then this authority is the fruit tree."

"The remaining authority of the 'Moth' is the 'Egg', which combined with the remaining authority of the 'Eternal Sun', the 'Core', eventually formed the God's Hometown, Mahab, which contains the original law, and the matter and energy radiated from it formed a new world and a myriad of secret historical tracks."

Listening to the "director's" explanation, Gillan was deeply shocked.

At this moment, his state of mind was just like the current scene.

In the vast universe, he felt so insignificant. The power he had gained before, or his ascension, were nothing compared to these two Outer Gods.

"Above the law, outside gods, authority, origin..."

Gillan kept repeating these key words in his mind.

I finally understood the origin of this world.

But he still didn't understand why the "director" told him this.

"There is no such thing as 'love' in this world."

"Director" said again.

"This immeasurable thing is neither energy nor matter, nor fiction... It originated from the encounter between the two Outer Gods, and was also the cause of their death."

"And the moment when 'Moth' meets 'Eternal Sun' is the time when 'love' is born. In the material world, from the perspective of human comprehension, it is about 42 days."

"I call this mysterious and unique 42 days the 'leap season', or the 'leap month'. The 'leap season' does not exist in the conventionally known four seasons, nor does it exist in the astral world, or even in the supreme world... It is in the material world, but it is not perceived."

“Even Si Chen and Si Sui could only sense it vaguely, but could not find this period of time… because it is an extremely secret key, the key to open Mahab’s outer shell and obtain the authority of the two Outer Gods.”

"The purpose of our journey through time, no, the purpose of our existence, is to find this key, the location of Leap Season."

Hearing this, Jilan fell into a long silence.

In his mind, thoughts kept running, trying to sort out the "director's" words——

In the beginning, nothing existed and the universe was dead silent.

Until the two outer gods met because of "love", destroyed because of "love", and the authority they left behind combined to form the hometown of God, Mahab.

After that, four Si Sui were born from Mahab, each inheriting a part of the original law to maintain the operation of the material world.

Because of Mahab's special nature, the world has undergone countless development trajectories and they really exist...and the world that Gilan traveled through is just one of the secret histories.

'But for an unknown reason, the four great Si Sui were polluted. Except for the "God of Love", the other three Si Sui went crazy, so the operation of the world became disordered, and the world fell into darkness and was on the verge of destruction.'

Gillan suddenly thought of the conversation between "Director" Mr. Clark and "Goddess of Love" Miss Alice in "Curtain Call #2".

'Therefore, the "director" used the power of the golden finger "Bilan" to change the development trajectory by filming the past and traveling through the past... He pushed the "God of Love" to commit suicide, separated four enlightenment fires, and made the "Noon Dawn" Omer born as he wished, bringing the "Fire Sword Road" and a new order to the world, stabilizing an era. '

'Then, the Sichens appeared.'

'So the purpose of Si Chen's birth is to replace the crazy Si Sui and keep the world running normally.'

Gillan suddenly understood.

'No wonder God's Hometown Toyalan is a reflection of Mahab and the "director" calls Sichen a "false god."

But there was one thing he still didn't understand.

That is why the Si Sui went crazy. What kind of "pollution" could make three of the four Si Sui born in Mahab, who inherited the original law, go crazy... Even Omer, who was born from the womb of the "God of Love", was not spared and had to cut off the polluted body and escape to Toyalan with pure spirituality.

At this time.

The "director" seemed to have known Gillan's doubts. He slowly raised his hand, moved his fingers, and manipulated a dial on the camera to turn it with a click.

Then, the picture on the retro square-headed TV seemed to be accelerated, and billions of years passed by in the blink of an eye.

The two original galaxy light clusters have long disappeared, leaving only a white hole and a spherical ring around it.

The "white hole" in the middle is the prototype of Mahab's body, and the outer ring belt is a dust tidal tail composed of layers of "secret history".

But soon, two huge and boundless galaxies came from afar, as if they were attracted by Mahab.

Those two galaxies, one is colorful and the other is black and white.

"…After Mahab was born, this ownerless object that contained the authority left by the two Outer Gods, 'Moth' and 'Eternal Sun', attracted the covetousness of two other Outer Gods."

"I have speculated that although the Outer Gods are blind and foolish and act only on instinct, this supreme authority of the same origin and level has an irresistible attraction to them, so they try to devour and digest Mahab at all costs."

"I named these two Outer Gods 'Mad Dream' and 'End Moment'... They are also the culprits of the pollution."

"The power of 'Mad Dream' is unknown, but it can corrupt everything. Its essence seems to be to trace everything back to its source, to return the effect to the cause, or to reverse the cause to the effect."

"As for the 'final moment', it is also full of mystery. The manifestation of its power is to freeze everything. Its essence seems to be to give everything an eternal and unchanging characteristic so that it will not completely perish, blurring the extreme duality concepts of existence and non-existence, falsehood and truth, life and death."

"These two Outer Gods have long been outside the world since ancient times. They both want to obtain Mahab, so they started a fight that you and I cannot understand... and the aftermath of the fight between the two quietly infiltrated and polluted the world."

"Director" said slowly.

He suddenly turned his head and looked at where Gillan was. Although this was only the past recorded in the film, and the "director" at that time could not see Gillan now, He seemed to have crossed the years and nodded to Gillan.

"So, now you should understand why our world has a supreme rule that is higher than the Twelve Laws - 'Everything exists, and existence leaves traces. Everything dreams, and dreams are reflections of reality.'"

"Because this is the result of the influence of the two Outer Gods..."

The "director" suddenly fell silent.

He raised his head and leaned weakly on the chair, gazing into the distance at the end of the deep universe. His expression could not be seen clearly under the shiny spherical helmet.

"At the same time, these two Outer Gods are also the reason why you and I exist... Because we are their chess pieces placed in the world, just like insect eggs injected into a fruit, using the original juice of the fruit as nutrients, gradually growing until we seize the crucial fruit core."

"You and I are both pests of this world."

"!!!"

Gillan was stunned as if struck by lightning.

original……

The truth of everything is so cruel!

He and Mr. Clark are not just time travelers, but chess pieces placed by the outer gods "Mad Dream" and "End Moment".

The ultimate goal is to seize the original authority hidden in Mahaburi.

So what is the meaning of his existence?
Just an insignificant chess piece in the myriad secret histories?
To be exploited?
At this moment, Gillan fell into the ultimate torture.

He was extremely desperate.

"In the myriad secret histories, there are shadows of you and me. No matter how the world develops, no matter who comes first, we will eventually fight and kill each other... because from the beginning, we are enemies."

At this time, the "director" said again.

"The only exception is 'Secret History A', because after killing Clark, the 'Sleeping Master' Gillan realized that something was wrong... He knew that the end was set and he could not escape the fate of being a chess piece, so he began to seek other ways out."

"He has helped more than a dozen Clarks who came from different secret history trips, but all of them failed until he met me."

"I have been planning in this secret history, waiting for your arrival, and then working together to find a solution... Unfortunately, the Art Sichen, who are symbols of the world's laws, are naturally hostile to outsiders like me, and have teamed up to plot my assassination."

"I'm sorry, I can't see the end, dear friend. But I believe you still have a chance to escape your fate, and to break free of this cage of despair for you and me in the myriad secret histories."

The director said this, his tone sad and lonely.

He paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice:

"Before we finally seize the power of Mahab, you and I will continue to descend into the myriad secret histories of birth and death until a winner emerges, in an endless cycle."

"According to 'Lord of the Night' Jilan, you must not follow the ordinary path to becoming a god like me... I guess that ascending to the God of the Moon in a 'leap month' is the final answer."

"Otherwise, once you seize Mahab's authority, your self-consciousness will perish... because the Outer God 'Dian Meng' is your creator!"

"..."

Gillan fell into confusion and silence.

At this moment, he seemed to be dreaming.

It all seemed so unreal.

Are my past life, thoughts, emotions, joys, sorrows, and sufferings I have experienced, all false?

Were they all fabricated by the so-called creator god "Crazy Dream"?

He doesn't believe it!

He didn't want to believe it!
He couldn't believe it either!

At the same time, he really wanted to ask the "director" Mr. Clark, how could a chess piece win over the Creator...

"Heh." Jilan looked dejected.

At this time.

The "director" took off his astronaut helmet, revealing a handsome and elegant middle-aged face.

Mr. Clark smiled and said softly:
"If you have any questions, you can try to travel to 'Secret History A', find another self, and seek answers. 'Master of Sleep' Mr. Gillan will definitely tell you everything he knows..."

"At the same time, I hope you will not be afraid or despair, because we still have one, and only, chance... That is, the Outer Gods have no humanity, so there is no 'love'. Just as we do not understand them, they do not understand us either."

"But the power of Mahab can only be mastered by 'love'. This is the key to escaping fate!"

After saying that, the "director" shook his head, looked at the dead silent starry sky, and said to himself:
"The end of life is nothing but death, and the meaning of death is nothing but rebirth or eternal sleep. Death is not the loss of life, but the exit from time."

"I have bowed out, and you are the only one left."

"I hope you can find a way out of the cycle of time, my dear friend, Gillan Iros."
