  Chapter 1063 Chapter 1061 · “Tide on all sides (Part 2).”

Su Mingan looked around.

 In Jiuyou's central control room, there are monitoring screens on the wall. They are densely arranged. There are tens of thousands of them, and the pictures are extremely rich.

 Scenes from the Louyue era—Li Guoshi’s Guoshi Pavilion, the bedrooms of common people on the street…

 Scenes from the steam age—Alice’s bombed home, the airship belonging to Su Lin and Xiao Hei in the sky, the residents’ houses…

 Scenes from the Age of Witches—Blackberry King fighting on the front lines, slums infected with the plague…

There are many eras that Su Ming'an has never seen, such as the Western Fantasy Era, the Martial Arts Era, the Undersea Era, and the Near Future Era... In the surveillance pictures, beautiful elves are wandering in the forest, the chivalrous and righteous heroes are having a drink under the moon, and the undersea era is... The mermaid holds the pearl, and people in uniform board the aircraft carrier...

This is not just the central control room of Jiuyou.

 …This is like the control room of “every era”.

“‘E’ means, what does it mean?” Su Mingan vaguely guessed the truth of the matter.

Su Wensheng twirled the petals and smiled.

“…Listen to what I have to say first.” Su Wensheng said:

 “The sixth key figure is Isabella.”

“She is a calm and calm person, approaching middle age, and her outlook and temperament have stabilized.”

“She is obsessed with exquisite mechanical equipment, and scientific research results far beyond the human level are enough to make her desperate. If she comes into contact with magical special medicine, it will be difficult for her not to study it.”

 “I’ll name her ‘F’ first.”

 …

 Isabella dropped a drop of liquid into the test tube. After confirming again and again, she ran out of the Central Research Institute.

“—Is it done?” Alger stood under the tree.

"It's done! Bring the finished product to the front line! The effect of the special medicine has been improved." Isabella raised her eyebrows: "I still have some medicines that I can bring to Su Mingan and the others, such as recovery medicine and defense medicine. In addition, In addition, I also want to test the pollution components of Jiuyou, which may be more helpful."

Alger said: "I will use the space talisman to protect you."

 Isabella nodded.

The space talisman shone with light, and Isabella and Alger appeared on the front line, approaching the mouth of Jiuyou.

 …

Su Wensheng was still standing on the high platform. He peeled off the seventh petal of Chaoyan flower. The petals fell to the ground and mixed with the faint vegetation ash on the ground:

 “The seventh key figure is Burris.”

“He is a person with a strong sense of faith. As early as when he lived in Eastern Europe, he was obsessed with various myths. He wanted to create a paradise of his own.”

“He likes to tell fairy tales and is happy to share them with others, calling them ‘inspiration’. However, after he was beaten up by Su Lin on the TV station, many people regarded him as a joke.”

"But he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he thought it was a test from God the Father. He has always been interested in you. He not only told you the story of the mermaid and the captain, but also founded the Lighthouse Sect for you. Some people regard him as A true believer, some people regard him as a lunatic, and few people know what he is thinking."

“For such a person, it is very simple to guide him, just start with faith.”

 “I’ll call him ‘G’.”

 …

"Dear God of Lighthouses. We respectfully pray to you and thank you for giving us life and strength. You are the master of the world and the source of wisdom. May your way be our guiding light..."

 Under the church, a blond man wearing a papal crown clasped his hands and closed his eyes in prayer.

  Directly opposite him is a marble statue of the god. The statue has a scale in one hand, a long sword in the other, and twelve pairs of snow-white wings. Its face is the cold and solemn face of Su Mingan.

Here is the Holy Cathedral of the Lighthouse, the largest church of the Old Gods in the world. It was established by Pope Burris two years ago and gathers millions of people who believe in the Old Gods. People live around the church, and tourism in the town thrives. Pope Burris is also recognized by many as an archangel descended from the old gods to earth.

 After finishing his prayer, Burris kissed the back of the hand of the statue. People looked at him with admiration and threw petals and feathers at him.

Burris's mind was very quiet. He may not really believe in Su Ming'an, he just uses his "magic stick" profession to earn a lot of faith points. But the most special thing about him is that when he wholeheartedly wants to become a magic stick, he will really believe in one person during this period, otherwise he will not be able to influence others. At least now, even with self-hypnosis, he really regarded Su Ming'an as his god.

“I heard that Father God went to Jiuyou.” Burris murmured to himself, with a hazy mist in his eyes: “I should follow him.”

 He summoned the knights and headed to Jiuyou to rescue God the Father.

 …

Su Ming'an didn't want to listen to Su Wensheng's words anymore. The pollution had spread to his upper limbs.

 He ​​raised the blade, but Su Wensheng didn't stop talking: "The eighth key person and the last key person is Lu Shu."

Su Mingan frowned slightly...the last one?

 “Listen to the end.” Su Lin said.

Su Mingan put down the knife.

Su Wensheng picked off the last petal and said to himself:

"Lu Shu is a resolute, paranoid, and silent person. He believes that the value of his life lies more in revenge. If the revenge of his parents is not avenged for a day, he will bear the hatred for a day. But unexpectedly, the illness worsens, the world is cold, and no one can help him. Help."

“In the face of the power of a noble family, it is impossible for a young man to complete his revenge. Even if the World Game comes, he feels very confused at first, not knowing how to establish his authority, but someone extends a helping hand to him.”

"When he was most desperate, it was you who gave him hope. It was you who promised to help him get revenge. It was you who pulled him into the Peak Alliance. I hope he will no longer be alone in the future. His temperament is extremely paranoid and will not change once he is determined. , so as long as we start from you, it will be easy to guide him.”

 “I named him ‘H’.”

 …

Lu Shu chopped down the soldiers in front of him with one strike.

 He silently wiped the blood on his face and looked at Jiuyou who was getting closer and closer. The mantis leapt around him.

There were no reinforcements or allies around him. He broke into the enemy army alone, like a black line, running straight towards Jiuyou.

 …He did not stay in Daoya City. Because he realized that the alien king was about to resurrect, and Su Mingan was about to face the most critical moment. No matter what, having one more person will be a help. "...I'm coming." He murmured.

 …

Su Wensheng said this, only the bare branches of the flowers were left. The light from tens of thousands of surveillance screens shone on his face, and his black eyes were filled with strange colors.

"I have finished what I have to say. Now the time is up to you. You can do whatever you want." Su Wensheng said.

Su Mingan glanced at Su Wensheng.

"Su Ming'an. You first have a look at the use of these surveillance screens. I'll help you look after Su Wensheng." Su Lin said calmly.

Su Mingan nodded. He casually looked at the surveillance screen, and it just so happened that this screen was the surveillance screen from the witch era. In the picture, Emperor Blackberry Kenite is leading the army to destroy the enemy country. Blackberry was already a young man in his twenties. He no longer had the youthful twelve-year-old appearance before. He got on his horse and shouted sharply. The golden-red flag swayed in the wind, the soldiers raised and fell their swords, and their mutilated limbs flew everywhere.

 The **** battle is right in front of you, and people can't help but be in awe of the cruelty of war. But right below the monitoring screen, there are ridiculous words:

 …

 …

Su Mingan looked at the tragic scenes of blood and flesh on the screen, and then at these words, an indescribable sense of absurdity rose from the bottom of his heart.

 …The gods have turned each era into a game, using this entertainment method to cause the blending and invasion of each era, and using entertainment words to cover up the cruel truth.

 But he has known this for a long time. What makes him feel most absurd is the console that comes with each monitoring screen.

 There are some sticky notes stuck on the console.

  【Enter 1554 to bring down natural disasters. (15541: Earthquake, 15542: Flood, 15543: Thunder, 15544: Volcanic eruption)]

　　【Enter specific coordinate points to lock the placement location. 】

　　【Enter the specified password, such as (2817: speed up plant growth), such as (3198: drop seeds), such as (3811: drop cloth), to affect the era on the screen. 】

　　【…】

 …

There are thousands of notes with instructions written on them. The instructions cover all kinds of situations, including natural disasters, destruction, elimination, and the release of materials...

  Just a few taps of your fingers on the keyboard and entering these instructions will affect another era.

 So...this is indeed the central control room. It’s not just Jiuyou’s central control room.

 This is...the central control room of all times.

 He looked around and saw similar consoles next to each screen. This is like the heart that links all eras. Just tapping the keyboard can affect the destiny of each era. The surveillance screens are arranged like a dense honeycomb, and each small screen condenses the lives of hundreds of millions of people, making people feel suffocated.

It is like the heaviness and vastness of an era suddenly become extremely small here, only one thousandth or one ten thousandth. With the tapping of your fingers, you can change the world.

 A nameless panic surged into my heart like a wave, silent but extremely violent. His hands began to tremble, and at that moment, a lot of things clicked in his mind.

 …

["If 'causality', like 'time' and 'space', can be transformed from a virtual concept into a substantive weapon." Noel moved his fingers slightly, and dozens of puppet threads appeared around him: "Then, we can turn ' Cause and effect is visualized as a silk thread, or a puppet thread? The operator touches one end of the causal thread, and the other end will change accordingly. In this way, it becomes a visualization ability."]

 …

Su Mingan and Noel believe that the "causal line" will be something like puppet silk. Just move one end of the thread and the other end will change accordingly.

 This is a mistake of fixed thinking. Think that the line of cause and effect can only be a "line".

 But what if there are other forms of expression?

Su Mingan pursed her lips tightly and frowned.

 —What if the essence of the “causal line” is not a silk thread, but... a keyboard?
