Ajin's Infinite World Raiders

With the help of the holy eyes borrowed from the main body, his eyes directly penetrated the appearance of matter and pointed directly to the space-time essence of the underworld——

'So it is... The underworld of the age of gods can actually be said to be the fusion of the underground rock formations of the material world and the underworld space born from death. Therefore, it not only retains the physical connection with the earth of the human world, but also has the Very different from the rules of the outside world...'

Zhao Zhe nodded, and roughly understood the state of the underworld, which can be reached by making a hole in the ground.

Well, to describe it in one word, it is "phase overlap".

Originally, at the beginning of the creation of the world, there should be no underworld. Under the earth, there are thick rock formations and caves generated by geological changes.

But perhaps because of the birth of living beings, the concept of "death" began to appear. As more and more living beings died, the "underworld" that accommodated the dead and undead came into being.

But the newly born underworld is not the kind of independent space that ordinary people imagine, but in the form of relying on the underground space, the phase that contains the rules of the underworld overlaps with the phase of the real material world, forming this kind of point in the eyes of modern people. The unscientific structure of the underworld.

And if time continues to go forward, with the disappearance of the age of gods, the phase of the underworld will gradually be separated from the material world in the process of self-improvement, and eventually evolve into the kind of independent space-time, self-contained world described in ordinary novels and animations. the real underworld.

In fact, Zhao Zhe can feel it at this time. Although this underworld is still in the most primitive state of overlapping with reality at this time, but now that the Age of God has entered the final stage, it is moving at an extremely slow pace every moment. The speed is far away from the present world, until one day the phase of the two worlds completely disengages and becomes two completely independent time and space.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Just when Zhao Zhe was obsessed with analyzing the structure of the underworld, Fujimaru Rika and the others were very curious about the scene of the underworld.

"We thought that there would be ghosts everywhere in the underworld, but it turned out to be so peaceful..."

The young master sighed like this.

Ishtar heard the words and said carelessly:

"Looking for ghosts, those in the cage are oh!"

"Eh?"

Fujimaru Rika was stunned for a moment. He looked at the metal cages on both sides of the road that looked like bird cages. Before, he was still thinking about what those light balls in the cages were. Are they human souls? !

"So many...all of them?!"

Looking around, there are thousands of bird cages in the criss-crossing stone paths, and in each cage, there are as few as one, as many as three or five souls.

And this is only what his eyesight can see. In the depths of the underworld, how many souls are still locked in cages?

"Ereshkigal, you will put your favorite human souls in cages and play with them for tens of thousands of years. And because of the cages, these souls are not allowed to even disappear - the goddess of the underworld you are looking for , is such an existence."

Ishtar said that, making Fujimaru Tika and Mash even more nervous.

"Playing for tens of thousands of years..."

In Fujimaru Tachika's mind, the image of Ereshkigal suddenly became the kind of terrifying existence that tortured the soul in the dark underworld.

After swallowing, he calmed down the nervousness in his heart and asked:

"Goddess Ereshkigal...where is it?"

"Just ahead, after the seven gates, is Ereshkigal's palace, and there she is."

Ishtar stretched his finger forward.

Looking at Fujimaru Tachika, he could vaguely see a stone gate across the road.

A few minutes later, several people finally came before the gate.

It was a rough stone gate that looked like it was randomly built out of stones, but Fujimaru Tachika didn't dare to underestimate it.

With the help of the energy perception vision given by the artificial golden core, he can see that the stone gate is soaked with the incomparably rich death force, and it is definitely not as easy to break as it looks from the outside.

"This door... how do we get through?"

Both Fujimaru Rika and Mash looked at Ishtar.

The latter pouted, with an expression of "unforgettable past", and said:

"It's very simple, just answer the question."

Before Fujimaru Rika and the others asked what the question was, suddenly, the door seemed to sense the arrival of the living and activated a certain mechanism.

The simple totems carved on both sides of the stone gate lit up, and a low female voice echoed like a horror movie sound:

"Re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-return to the living beings who have fallen into the underworld, reply to the way their souls exist—"

"Okay, here comes the question of choosing one!"

Ishtar looked straight and reminded:

"The gate of the underworld will question the good and evil of the soul, and it is a just and rational gate."

Before the words fell, the door of the underworld asked a question:

"Question - the last Master of Chaldea, although the standards of beauty are varied, they are still absolute, black can overcome white, and earth can overcome sky, then, Ereshkigal and Ishtar , which one is more beautiful?"

Fujimaru Rika, who was raising her spirits to answer the question, couldn't help but be stunned: "...Huh?"

His expression at this time is like this →(ー`?ー)???

A black question mark.

"Wait for me! This is not the same question I heard last time!"

Ishtar, who had just praised the fairness and rationality of the gate to the underworld, couldn't bear it any longer. What kind of fairness and rationality could this kind of question be? !

However, the gate of the underworld ignored Ishtar's clamor at all.
