While Lei Luo was still wondering why there was no sound, a tall figure rushed out from the white fog and hugged Lei Luo’s thigh as he began to wail loudly.
“Where the hell did you go? I’ve been here for hundreds of billions of years. I’m almost bored to death.”
The tall figure was a tall and handsome youth, but his current appearance was a little unbearable to look at. Why did these people like to hug his leg so much? It was truly detestable.
Thinking of this, Lei Luo flicked his leg and shooed the young man away. He asked, “What’s going on? Who are you? Are you crazy? I don’t know you.”
The young man’s face was filled with shock. He said in disbelief, “You don’t know me?”
“Yes, why are you acting this way?”
Lei Luo was a little confused. What was going on? However, the young man quickly adjusted his clothes and saluted Lei Luo.
“You can call me the root, or the beginning of everything.”
He waved at Lei Luo and the mist immediately condensed into a table, two cups of tea, and two comfortable recliners.
With questions about this world, Lei Luo and the ‘root’ sat down.
“My question is, what exactly is going on with this ‘Holy Grail’?”
The ‘root’ thought with a smile. ‘Is this the solution you came up with? You even came to ask me.’
However, he still answered, “The reason why you came here and can still see me is because of your constitution. Your constitution is very pure, and your affinity for magic is unique, but…”
The ‘root’ continued with a hint of regret, “It’s a pity that you didn’t start preparing for the ‘Holy Grail’ ceremony when you were born. Now, your body has been polluted by all kinds of emotions. If you still want the Holy Grail, you have to divide your emotions into three parts. In other words, Lei Luo will become three people in the future, and only after becoming one will it be the perfect Holy Grail.”
He paused for a while then continued, “I know what you’re thinking. Indeed, if you cultivate the Holy Grail now, you can indeed use the ‘Space of God.’ But haven’t you thought about it? If you really do that, what’s the difference between you and the previous people? Things probably won’t end well.”
The ‘root’ was explaining to Lei Luo while rocking the recliner.
“Anyone who tries to pollute the Holy Grail will not have a good ending. Perhaps, after you finally complete the unification of the Empire, you will be betrayed by your own brother. Don’t say that you don’t believe it. This is the influence of the Holy Grail. Human power can not change it. No matter what kind of person they are, they will change under the influence of the Holy Grail, even if they are your best friend or brother.”
After hearing this, Lei Luo fell silent. He needed the Space of God, and his plan to conquer the Great Wall of Iron Blood lacked something that could be fixed. Under the long-term management of the Phoenix Alliance, the defense of the Great Wall of Iron Blood had already reached its peak.
In addition to the fleets sent by the surrounding cities, no matter how ingenious his plan was, how successful the uprising of the magic conductor would be?
It might not be enough to take down the Great Wall of Iron Blood, and in the face of absolute strength, his calculations would only be a bubble.
“If I separate these emotions, will they still be complete? Am I still complete?” Lei Luo asked in a questioning tone. This was very important to him. If he was no longer complete, then no matter how successful his campaign was, it would be meaningless.
“Of course, you can treat them as your clones. However, they are divided into good and evil.”
The ‘root’ gave Lei Luo a meaningful smile.
“Your evil is hatred for your parents who abandoned you. Although so many years have passed, you have never let it go. Your kindness is for your brothers and teachers. You love them, but you did not protect them well.”
Lei Luo’s body trembled imperceptibly as he answered, “In the beginning, you hugged my legs. How did you know me?”
A nonchalant voice came from the white fog. “Is that so? Maybe I’ve misjudged you. I do have a very talented friend.”
Lei Luo bowed to the ‘root.’
“Please help me separate these feelings.”
After a while, Lei Luo fell asleep on the recliner. The two figures gathered around Lei Luo, looked at each other, and left.
…
“Wake up, pervert.”
Lei Luo could not see Liz’s face clearly.
Lei Luo did not remember what happened. He only remembered that he went to the ‘root.’
“Am I asleep?”
“Yes, it’s been ten days.”
Looking at Liz’s face, Lei Luo said seriously, “Are you kidding me?”
“It’s true.”
Lei Luo was troubled. It was almost time for the attack that he had agreed on. He said to Liz, “Can you take me back?”
Liz helplessly answered, “I’m just the librarian of this library. I can tell you how to go back, but I can’t take you back. Your Holy Grail is ready, but it doesn’t seem to be the same as the one I’ve seen before.”
“Whatever, I’m in a hurry now. Tell me how to get back.”
Liz opened the big hole at the top and said to Lei Luo, “Take these books with you. Most of the useful magic knowledge in this library is inside.”
Activating [ lightness spell ] and flying toward the big hole, Lei Luo shouted to Liz, “Wait until I come to find you next time.”
Liz looked at Lei Luo on the pile of books and muttered to herself, “Will you be able to come in then? If the ‘Space of God’ wasn’t used as the coordinates, others would have thought that you really came.”
As she spoke, she slowly laid down on the pile of books, crossed her legs, and slowly fell into a deep sleep. In the long years, such things were just an adjustment.
However, Lei Luo didn’t think too much about it. When they flew from the big hole to the hall, the slightly neurotic old man named Aristotle had long disappeared, leaving behind only these pillars.
When they passed through the tunnel, those people were devout as usual and still maintained their kneeling posture.
They immediately activated the battleship and flew out of the ruins, but the ruins behind them had already been closed, and no traces could be seen.
Lei Luo, who was on the battleship, looked at his communication device, and his head throbbed in pain. Everyone had called him countless times. Allie, Morton, and Tolle were there.
He called Allie, and Allie’s hurried voice came through.
“Hello! Is this the chief? It’s about to start. Where are you?”
Lei Luo looked at his map and answered Allie.
“I need another day here. I’ll be there when you start.”
In fact, Lei Luo had already made the arrangements. They just wanted Lei Luo to come back to boost their morale. They didn’t expect Lei Luo to spend so much time where he was with no idea where he was going.
