Then she didn't give up and did it again.
No!
This space, the space of Noah's Ark that Gaia told her about, holds the end of all life that has ever lived on Earth.
But there was no witch here! Even though she kept looking for it over and over again, the result was still the same.
"Why, Gaia? Didn't you say that all life has a contract with you, and the last life to be extinct will be sacrificed to you? What about Wu?"
Mount Buzhou collapsed, the sky collapsed and the earth sank. According to the description of the myth, the sky leaked, and the water from the Milky Way rushed down, turning into a flood that submerged the earth.
Why didn't the last witch board Noah's Ark when faced with the devastating flood?
Gaia didn't answer her.
Such a powerful civilization should be a significant part of the Earth. They also thrived on this planet.
However, humans have found dinosaur fossils from 100 to 200 million years ago, and even the earliest life from 500 million years ago, fossils of the Opabinia sea scorpion and the Anomalocaris.
But no fossils of the Wu clan have ever been seen, it’s as if they never existed.
It was like an eraser that completely wiped out all traces of their existence in history.
After a long time, Ling finally heard a voice.
[The witch has already told you the reason, hasn't she? ]
Sorry, Gaia, we lost, we lost to the Source of Destruction.
Yes, Ling had already guessed it, but she didn’t dare and didn’t want to believe it.
That was the enemy Gaia had told her she had to face: the Source of Destruction!
The witches lost, so their existence was wiped out. It was as if they had never been born from the beginning, disappearing so completely and so cleanly.
Perhaps it’s not just witches. How many other civilizations on this planet have been completely erased from history by time, leaving future generations with no knowledge of them?
No one knows except Gaia.
What about humans?
Can she really win?
The witches, who have spanned several star systems and have reached the top civilization in the Milky Way, lost easily. Can humans win?
"What exactly is the source of destruction?"
[The instinct that all things are destined to exist from the beginning of their birth, the bad nature of longing for destruction. 】
There is not just one universe, not just one plane, but thousands and thousands of planes, an endless universe, and all life is born with this bad quality.
Everything that is born in this world is destined to die from the moment it is born. This is true for insects, humans, planets, and the universe.
Everything that is born will eventually die, and everything that is created will eventually be destroyed.
The end of all things is the source of destruction. It is the law of the universe and the truth of the world.
Chapter 276 Synchronous Satellite
Reimu has been a little distressed recently, and the source of her distress is her friend Toumori Sanae.
She found the real Gensokyo. Such a big thing, the first thing Reimu did when she returned to the real world was to share it with her childhood playmate Sanae (show off).
But Sanae didn't believe it.
"Where is Gensokyo? Can you take me there?"
Being asked this, Reimu was a little at a loss.
"Probably not."
"How are you going to get there?"
"I went there when I fell asleep."
"You're making fun of me, aren't you, Reimu? That means you're dreaming," Sanae said unhappily.
It seems right.
But that's not right!
Gensokyo is real. Reimu is very sure of this. It is not her dream.
"Look, even if the Gensokyo you mentioned really exists, you can't take me there. You can only go there when you're asleep. Is this any different from dreaming?"
Reimu originally came here to show off, no, to share, but ended up being confused.
When did this guy Tuo Shou become so eloquent? This was not scientific at all. But she really couldn't say anything to refute it.
"But look, the 5,000 yen in my donation box can't be fake, right?"
"Hmm" Of course the money is real, Sanae can't refute that.
Reimu's offering box has always been in the house. She once aspired to be a shrine maiden who was only responsible for looking after the offering box, but unfortunately this ideal did not come true.
Even if the priest is her father, but if there is such a good position, why doesn't the priest take it himself? Reimu was daydreaming from the beginning.
However, what does a donation box filled with 5,000 yuan mean?
"I don't believe it unless you show me the Yin-Yang Jade."
Reimu was about to take out the Yin Yang Jade, but then she came to her senses and said, "Sanae, you already believed it, didn't you?"
"I'm not Sanae, I'm Kirisame Alice Death!"
Ha, Reimu realized that she was deceived. She should have thought that Sanae would not be so "rational". Her disgust for boring daily life and yearning for the unknown were stronger than hers.
As long as there is the slightest possibility of escaping from this world, she will try her best.
Reimu took out the Yin Yang Jade and handed it to Sanae without much thought.
Sanae took it, looked at it, looked at it again, and looked at it hard, her face turned red.
"Sanae, breathe!"
"Oh, sorry, I forgot."
Toumori Sanae, who had forgotten to breathe, tried to take a few deep breaths, but the stone was still a stone, nothing happened.
"It seems to be quite valuable. But it's just an ordinary jade stone, right? Can it really go to Gensokyo?"
"Of course." Reimu was not surprised, because the Yin-Yang Jade was originally marked that only she could use it.
If possible, she would also like to take Sanae to Gensokyo. However, this seems to be beyond her ability.
"I'll show you." Reimu said as she took back the Yin-Yang Jade and held it in her palm.
She is now proficient in how to enter and exit Gensokyo.
With just a thought, she arrived in Gensokyo, still in the room of the shrine.
It seems that no matter where she is in the real world, whether or not she is in her own bedroom in the real world, when she goes to Gensokyo she will appear in this room that is almost a replica of her own bedroom.
Reimu didn't think much about the principle behind this, and she couldn't figure it out.
This was a good thing. It was good that she didn't randomly appear in the forest of Gensokyo. Although she was able to protect herself, it was troublesome to trek through mountains and rivers to find the way back to the shrine, and she hated trouble.
The shrine is very quiet.
Just like in the real world, it was also broad daylight when she looked outside. There were no monsters waiting in the bedroom to give her money. In fact, monsters were more accustomed to sleeping during the broad daylight.
Of course, there are monsters that are awake during the day, just like humans who are used to staying up late at night. However, unless it is necessary, most people who stay up late are not doing so for work, so monsters in broad daylight will not think of running into the human world.
Reimu just took a look and returned to the human world.
It was just an experiment, to prove something to Sanae, but Reimu soon discovered that the proof was not a success.
"How about it?"
"How about what?"
"I just went to Gensokyo."
Sanae once again began to wonder if Reimu was joking with her.
"But you just stood there with your eyes closed for a while."
If falling asleep while standing up can be considered a superpower, then Sanae admitted that she had indeed seen a superpower just now. Normally, this would be a good joke, and Sanae could even make up a short story. But now she didn't care about it.
"I didn't disappear?"
"Well, no. If you try to tell me now that what I just said was a lie, I'll be angry."
Reimu was not lying, but she found herself unable to prove it.
The Yin-Yang Jade gave her the ability to use spiritual arts, but it was limited to Gensokyo. Here she was still just an ordinary person.
Unless a monster breaks the rules when it comes to the human world from Gensokyo, she needs to hunt it down or directly eliminate it.
She hasn't encountered such a monster yet.
Why are the monsters so obedient? Reimu even expects a monster to cause trouble. Having learned the art of slaying dragons, she always wants to see a dragon. More importantly, she wants to prove to Sanae that the fantasy world she hopes for and desperately wants to find is real.
It is hard to say whether there are any monsters causing trouble in Gensokyo. Even if there are, they have long been frightened by Reimu's "Dream Nature".
Before getting into trouble, consider whether your body can withstand the bombardment of tens of thousands of runes.
Others are talismans, she is barrage!
The first time she tried it, she didn't take it lightly and released her maximum magical power without reservation, with an exaggerated and terrifying power.
Although Ling was willing to satisfy Reimu's fantasy and give her the authority to supervise Gensokyo, it was necessary to impose certain restrictions.
After all, it is really scary for a naughty child to have the power comparable to a modern army without any constraints in the world.
A few days ago, seeing the end of Wu and the destruction of her root body made Ling depressed for several days.
She admitted that she was frightened at first. This enemy, whom she had first heard of from Gaia, was much more terrifying than her most terrifying fantasy.
It was not some powerful creature as she had thought in the past, nor was it a powerful civilization like the ancient A Empire.
That is a conceptual entity born from the law of universe destruction.
But Ling soon realized that panicking would be of no help.
From birth, everything is unknown, only the ending is predetermined. No matter how hard you struggle or how hard you work, you will all end up dying.
As if mocking all the struggles and efforts, all the joy and happiness. Those are short-lived, only death is eternal.
