Link had never expected that John’s a-rank chain mission would trigger an S-rank mission due to the chain effect.
The pillar of creation, the wall of origin.
Link had never heard of this in his previous life. Judging from the rewards of the first round, this S-rank mission was even better than [ Heart of the Swarm ] and [ doomsday descends ].
[ doomsday descends ] was version 3.0 [ doomsday echo: The main mission of the [ revival of the God of plagues ] version.
[ Heart of the Swarm ] was the main mission for version 6.0.
This [ pillar of creation ] was most likely the main mission of the subsequent versions.
“Link, are you alright?” john noticed that link was in a daze and was worried.
Link came back to his senses and let out a long sigh.”I’m fine. I just saw some scenes. by the way, you can tell the assassin league that you’re done investigating the desert prince. also, show me the videos and photos you took of the scene.”
“Why did it suddenly end?” John was confused.
“I’ve just regained my senses and saw the entire process of The Desert Prince entering the catacombs. He performed some kind of ritual at the Holy cleansing pool and opened a portal to another place. He has left the wasteland.” link hid what he had seen through the holy cleansing pool. after all, the nebula that formed the wall of origin and the countless powerful beings bound to it were too shocking. it would only add to his troubles.
John’s heart was in turmoil. you can see what happened in your mind just by touching something. Other than the ability to foresee, have you mastered the ability to backtrack? ”
Link’s expression gradually calmed down. He forced a smile and said,”It’s not omnipotent, it’s only limited to the wasteland,”
“Then why did you suddenly lose your mind and retreat just now? I felt your aura and energy collapse in an instant. John was a little worried. He felt that link had seen something else when he went back in time. Otherwise, with his calm mind, he wouldn’t have been able to react so exaggeratedly.
no, I’m not. I’m just thinking about The Desert Prince’s far-reaching plans in the wasteland. I don’t know the power behind him or his purpose, so I’m a little depressed. Link picked up the photos taken at the scene and glanced at them. After nearly 50 years, the Holy cleansing pool in the hall had completely dried up. Even the whale-oil lamp had dimmed.
The footsteps stopped at the side of the Holy cleansing pool. The woollen coat and golden bracelet had fallen to the side. It was exactly what link had seen.
John was silent for a while before he said,”alright, since you’ve seen the result, this matter will come to an end.” As for the coat and the Golden bangle, I’ll leave them to you. Since you’re back, I’ll recharge my batteries and go back to rest for the next few days ~”
With that, John stood up and left. He could tell that link was hiding something.
He didn’t say it out loud, but he already understood.
when the alien planet had invaded the wasteland and even when saffron’s projection had appeared on the island, link had remained calm. however, just now, link’s aura had completely collapsed, especially when he had felt his body tremble under stress when he had supported him. these were all true-link had definitely seen something terrifying in the backtrack!
and it was a great horror that could not be explained to the world!
John left the mechanical fortress in the Jeep. The mechanical fortress was brightly lit at night, illuminating the entire desert.
Looking at the mechanical fortress from the rearview mirror, John couldn’t help but sigh. “In the end, you’re still the one who took on everything.”
“Although I don’t know what kind of terrifying scene you’ve seen, as a friend, all I can do is to keep getting stronger and accompany you to face this great horror!”
The laziness on John’s face turned into solemness, and his aura suddenly became fierce.
He didn’t say these words to link in person because he knew that the more link saw, the more pressure he would have to bear to see the future. This kind of pressure was something that others could not understand. As a companion and good friend, all he could do was to be able to share his burden when he really faced it, not stand behind and watch him fight alone!
After John left, link finally didn’t have to pretend anymore. He sat down on the sofa and drank a whole glass of water before he felt better.
The Nebula ” wall ” he saw through the Holy cleansing pool should be the wall of origin mentioned in the quest prompt.
as for the bound statues on the wall of origin, link didn’t dare guess their identities, but they were definitely not low!
In his previous life, link had played all the way to version 6.0. Due to the gaming pod’s aging and electrical leakage, he had traveled through time. Hence, he had no idea what happened in the subsequent plot. However, in version 6.0, the biggest villain, Emperor Paul, and the three great civilizations of the universe had all appeared in the players ‘eyes.
judging from the names, the pillar of creation and the wall of origin should be the version that will reveal the truth of the rule structure of fate in the entire game world. The voice of the person behind The Desert Prince should have come from the wall of origin, but whether it was the power of the wall of origin itself or an existence bound within it, I have no idea.”
The Desert Prince had said that he had arranged everything. What was he planning?
Was this arrangement only available on novice planets?
could it be that he was targeting the players and giving them a reasonable explanation for their arrival?
as the versions changed, the players ‘voice in the universe became more and more powerful, and their status in the general deep space star development alliance also became higher and higher. perhaps the story of the pillar of creation would be a version where the players would really be the main characters?
According to logic, the plot should be a link between the previous and the next. Emperor Paul in version 6.0 was already close to being invincible, so how did the plot transition to the subsequent plot?
That last voice, was it for me?
The title [ wasteland omniscient one ] brought about the ability to look back. I saw the Echo scene from almost 50 years ago, but why did it discover my existence directly? Have I been targeted?
Obtaining the Zerg nest was equivalent to going against Emperor Paul.
Now, he had offended an even more mysterious and powerful existence.
More explanations and questions popped up in Link’s mind, but he couldn’t answer a single one.
He had a splitting headache!
In the end, he could only sigh.
“Sigh, I can only take one step at a time now!”
