Chapter 260: Make Shenhe Great Again, It's Time for a Decisive Battle
While the battle for the galaxy continues.
Styx Galaxy.
At this time, Ryze, who had been staying on Earth, unexpectedly appeared in Carl's Death Song Academy.
"Teacher Liu is visiting us unexpectedly. What advice do you have for me?"
Facing the rare guest, Ryze, Carl treated him very politely.
After all, as one of the former mentors at Shenhe Academy, Ryze had a lot of contact with him back then.
So, all in all, he and Ryze can be considered to have a friendship.
"I dare not ask you to teach me. I just couldn't refuse some old guys, so I had to come here to meet you."
Ryze answered Carl while shaking his bald head.
When Carl heard Ryze say that he came on behalf of those people from Shenhe Academy, he was silent for a while.
But even though he could already guess what Ryze would say next, he still asked knowingly: "Oh? Then may I ask, teachers, what advice do you have?"
Then, Ryze didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose: "It's nothing else, it's for the current affairs of the Milky Way."
"We old guys all agree that the farce in the known universe has come to this point. The three angel kings have all fallen. The angels, demons, and scorching suns of the former major Shenhe civilizations have all died or fallen. It's time to stop..."
Speaking of this, we have to mention again the history of Shenhe civilization.
In short, about 160,000 years ago, a powerful civilization rose in the universe. This civilization was the original Shenhe civilization.
The original Shenhe civilization was actually no different from the current primitive Shenhe civilization. They both first went through a barbaric period and then slowly entered a primitive society...
Until the social form and science and technology in civilization developed and grew little by little, and then the concept of civilization gradually emerged.
It took another 10,000 years for the Shenhe civilization to successfully enter the interstellar age.
The Shenhe civilization at this time was no different from the civilizations in the ordinary universe. It would make friends with civilizations it liked, and would become enemies with civilizations it disliked.
In the conflict with hostile civilizations, the Shenhe civilization joined the interstellar war and started an arms race.
It was also during this interstellar war that the Shenhe civilization not only discovered the existence of the dark plane, but also used genetic modification technology to successfully create super soldiers.
Until the concept of God appeared.
At that time, the Shenhe civilization, which possessed "divine power", was invincible. Not only did they win all the interstellar wars, they also had the momentum to dominate the universe.
They cannot imagine, and will never imagine, what other dangers there are in the universe that could threaten their civilization.
"God" is eternal, and the Shenhe civilization, which possesses the power to create gods, should also be eternal.
Everything in the known universe that Shenhe dislikes will be wiped out by "God" with thunder and lightning.
For example, the beast civilization that did not conform to the aesthetics of the Shenhe people, the triangular civilization with strange thinking and appearance, and other various physical civilizations were all unilaterally expelled from the circle of intelligent life in the known universe by the Shenhe civilization...
In this way, the Shenhe civilization has dominated the universe for tens of thousands of years, and their exploration of the universe has reached an unprecedented level.
However, the rise and fall of all things in the universe seems to be an eternal and unchanging law.
Just when the Shenhe civilization reached its peak, it suddenly experienced an inexplicable disaster. Later, the descendants of Shenhe called this disaster the "ultimate fear."
The "ultimate fear" at that time caused great damage to the once prosperous Shenhe civilization and almost wiped out the entire race...
The disaster came suddenly and ended inexplicably, leaving even the survivors of the Shenhe civilization confused as to what had happened and why their civilization was gone.
The unknown is the most terrifying. The survivors of Shenhe civilization suddenly fell into panic. For the first time, they realized that the immortal "God" could not be eternal...
But life has to go on, and the temporarily safe survivors of Shenhe Civilization begin to look for the direction of the future...
After experiencing an inexplicable blow, the survivors of the Shenhe civilization no longer dared to rebuild their civilization on the original site. They were determined to spread the seeds of civilization throughout the universe.
Thus, "Shenhe College" was established.
Some of the descendants of Shenhe have become mentors, while others have devoted themselves to the development and construction of the revival of Shenhe. They have spread across the universe to teach the knowledge, language, and concepts of Shenhe civilization to various developing civilizations...
Having said that, the positions of the old guys mentioned by Ryze and the teachers mentioned by Carl are very clear.
In other words, the stance of all the descendants of Shenhe who have lived from the Shenhe era to the present day is very clear, and they all want to revive the word "Shenhe".
Of course, as one of the former mentors of Shenhe Academy, Ryze’s position must be close to that of those old guys he mentioned.
"Karl, you are also from Shenhe College. Have you forgotten your original intention when you were a student of Shenhe?"
After briefly reviewing the history of Kamigawa with Carl, Ryze then asked Carl.
Strictly speaking, Carl is not a descendant of Shenhe, but an outstanding student recruited by the descendants of Shenhe when they spread Shenhe's ideas in the universe.
Later, when Shenhe College reached a cooperation with the female angels and obtained Kesha's permission to settle in the City of Angels, Carl followed Shenhe to the City of Angels.
Then, the known universe gradually began to have stories about Carl and the title of the God of Death.
But compared to Carl now, Carl at that time was a pure child. Not only was he humble and eager to learn, but he also thought every day about how to revive Shenhe...
"I haven't forgotten my original intention, Mr. Ryu."
Without any hesitation, Carl answered Ryze directly and affirmatively: "I have always been working on reviving Shenhe, but my philosophy was not only not recognized by the angels in the past, but also by many civilizations now!"
"The Void is the only way I can think of to make Shenhe great again."
"When the day of the void comes, I, you, us, you, and even all the Shenhe-body life in the known universe will be able to bid farewell to yesterday forever and embrace the future that belongs to us in the void..."
As he spoke, Karl's tone began to become a little crazy again.
It seemed that only when he mentioned these things would he become so excited.
However, Ryze was not affected by his words at all. Instead, he shook his head in disappointment and said, "Void?"
"It seems you didn't listen to what I said just now."
"Have you forgotten the ultimate fear that destroyed Shenhe civilization?"
Although until now, the descendants of Shenhe who survived from that time still haven't really figured out what the so-called "ultimate fear" is.
However, with so many years of research and exploration, and after the exploration of two great pioneers, Principal Kiran of Time and Space, and Dinghei.
They still have a rough guess about the so-called "ultimate fear".
The so-called "ultimate fear" is most likely the sub-biological world mentioned by the angel, the void that Carl has been persevering in.
"We should overcome the ultimate fear. Teacher Liu, we should not refuse to accept the great progress it may bring us just because we are afraid of the ultimate fear..."
After the madness, Carl became unusually calm.
In fact, he had said something similar to the above to Morgana not long ago. However, Morgana was not on the same page with him after all!
"But what you think of as the void may bring us great progress, but it may also bring us catastrophic disaster."
Ryze said: "We don't need to be so anxious. Gods and super soldiers have almost eternal lifespans. With the rise of Earth's civilization, normal mortals can also live for more than a thousand years."
"This is just the beginning. I believe that in the near future, the Shenhe body will be able to completely break free from the shackles of lifespan."
"We have time to take our time. Not only do we have enough time, but we also have an absolutely safe environment to develop slowly."
"Why, why take the risk?"
If cursing at someone directly wasn't so out of character, Ryze would have wanted to curse at Carl at this moment.
After all, as he said now, Shenhe has basically no shortage of time now, and there is no need to race against time.
In the known universe, where no physical civilization can threaten the Shenhe Body, the Shenhe Body is allowed to develop slowly.
But Carl just wants to be different and insists on dragging the known universe and all the Shenhe bodies into a all-in game.
If the Soha wins, then everyone will ascend.
However, if the all-in-one loses, then the advantages that Shenhe Body has developed over the years will not only disappear, but may even be destroyed directly...
"Teacher Liu, you have been on Earth for so long, you should know a saying from Earth, right?"
Carl continued calmly.
"What?"
Ryze looked at him in confusion.
"Born in sorrow, died in happiness."
"..."
"Since there may be void civilizations, who can guarantee that they won't take the initiative to cause trouble for us?"
Carl then began to express his own views: "Just as pre-nuclear civilizations explored the universe in search of extraterrestrial civilizations, we are also exploring the void in search of void civilizations."
"It is very likely that the Void Civilization is also constantly exploring and searching for us."
"This means that the comfortable and secure known universe we see today may not be as safe as we think."
"So, we can only strengthen ourselves first, rather than wait until the day when the void civilization arrives and then passively want to become stronger."
"By then, it will be too late..."
Although Karl's words seemed a bit far-fetched at this time, it must be said that this possibility does exist.
After all, a civilization that cannot currently leave its home planet certainly cannot pin all its hopes on the fact that there are no alien civilizations in the universe.
"That's different, Carl. We can also develop to the point where we can deal with the possible void civilization through other means. We don't necessarily have to go through the void..."
Naturally, Ryze would not be convinced by Carl's substitution of concepts, so he continued.
However, having said this, Carl didn't seem to want to continue this meaningless game of mutual persuasion.
"Then there is nothing more to talk about between us."
Carl shook his head at Ryze.
"Then don't blame us old guys for helping Earth civilization deal with you."
After seeing Carl's final attitude, Ryze also expressed his opinion directly on behalf of himself and all the descendants of Kamigawa.
In fact, don't think that he and those Shenhe descendants who have long retired are unwilling to care about anything just because they usually look like they have no desires or demands.
It’s just that no matter how much the civilizations in the known universe fought with each other, they could not touch their fundamental interests, “reviving the Divine River.”
After all, in the so-called wars between gods before this, the number of people actually killed could be counted on one hand.
Naturally, they would definitely stay out of such minor fights and regard themselves as absolutely neutral, not helping anyone.
But now Carl wants to uncover the entire bottom of Shenhe, so they certainly can't sit idly by.
"It doesn't matter. Since the day I decided to start the Void Project, I have been ready to face all challenges."
Carl simply ignored Ryze's verbal threats.
This is indeed true. He even dared to design a plan to get rid of Kesha, who was previously known to be invincible in the known universe. How could he be afraid of the descendants of Shenhe who are not even as good as Kesha now?
But before Ryze could react, he saw Carl looking directly into the distance outside the Karthus Academy.
The direction of his gaze was also the direction of the Milky Way.
"It seems that you don't need to take action. The one from Earth Civilization can't sit still any longer."
Carl whispered softly.
"Oh? The new warrior you trained is specifically for dealing with him? Are you so confident that this one warrior alone can suppress him?"
When hearing Carl say that Liu Xie couldn't help but attack, Ryze had to put everything else aside for the time being and started talking about the battle between Liu Xie and Snow.
"I was originally thinking of letting Snow hold him back."
"Of course, it would be best if we could kill him directly."
Carl replied: "However, now it seems that I overestimated the void power that the void particles can mobilize, and underestimated its growth rate!"
The reason he said this was because he discovered that Snow had already been defeated by Liu Xie.
Moreover, Snow not only lost, but was completely defeated.
Sun Wukong had no power to fight back in Snow's hands, and Snow also had no power to fight back in Liu Xie's hands.
As soon as Liu Xie appeared, he suppressed Snow with absolute crushing force.
"Then let me go meet you!"
When he realized that he had to take action himself, Carl did not hesitate and took a step forward and disappeared directly into the Death Song Academy.
Although according to his original calculations, he might have a battle with Liu Xie, this battle came a little early today.
However, no matter how early or late it is, it will have to be fought sooner or later.
Instead of continuing to fight openly and secretly and wasting time, it would be more practical to fight openly and decide the winner directly.
