Chapter 266 The Truth of the World?
"save?"
If there was only Brent, he might have been fooled by Beckford's words. But there is still an Ethan on the field, but he knows what Beckford's men have done.
"Turning people into undead is also called "savior"?
Beckford looked at Ethan again, but instead of refuting Ethan's words, he turned to Ethan.
"Because their strength is too poor, if you are an excellent and powerful adventurer, of course they won't become such a low-level undead creature."
Beckford's words are still without emotional fluctuations. Eason does not know whether Beckford is like this, or whether it is the carrier he chose, and he can only mechanically use a tone without any emotional fluctuations to 'report' Beckford's words. .
"I sincerely invite you to join my group as we work together for the future of 'real people' in this world."
Ethan's brows twitched. He was very concerned about what the "real person" in Beckford's words meant, so he immediately asked.
It's a pity that the answer is a bit different from what he thought. Ethan thought that the so-called 'real people' have some special bloodline or something, but the answer given by Beckford was actually the theory of 'survival of the fittest', only the strong can He will be regarded as an adult, and the rest are no longer regarded as an adult by him.
"They can help people who are really fit to survive, that's what makes them exist."
"..."
For some reason, Brent felt a little cold. In fact, he is not the only one who feels cold. The movement here has already attracted everyone's attention. Many people have already gathered. From Beckford's perspective, of course, he can see more and more adventures gathered. Most of them are 'valueless beings', and he does not shy away from continuing to speak his words in front of everyone.
"Maybe you don't understand it now, but when you truly understand the truth of this world, you will have the same thoughts as me."
It was rare that Beckford's words had a little emotional fluctuation. Ethan knew that this sentence was addressed to himself, and everyone present knew that this sentence was addressed to him.
"Are you so sure?"
"..."
This time it was Beckford who was silent. He didn't know whether he didn't want to answer or couldn't answer, but with the distortion of the translucent figure, the undead finally shattered and disappeared.
Even in the end, Beckford didn't say what the so-called truth was. Maybe he wanted Ethan to discover it himself?
As Beckford appeared and disappeared, he said little but made a big impact.
Brent doesn't even care about what to do next, everyone is entangled in what is the truth of the world? It turned such a powerful adventurer into such a guy.
"Although Beckford was a bit arrogant at the time, he wasn't such a character. What is the so-called truth of the world?"
The only people standing next to Brent were Ethan and Brad. All the way up to now, this team is mainly composed of three groups, that is, the crew members of the three captains, plus a small number of scattered crew members of other captains.
Before getting here, it was mainly Brent. Now Brent likes to ask Ethan when he has some problems. This is the respect he has exchanged for his absolute strength, and Ethan doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.
When the three captains are talking together, the crew will consciously keep a certain distance. Even if they don't want to do so, Logan, Brent, and Brad's cronies, who are standing not far away, will also consciously distance themselves. Get them back enough distance.
Brad, who had been silent since Beckford's appearance, finally spoke, and he surprised Brent and Ethan as soon as he spoke.
"The truth is... there is no endless land."
"what?"
Whether it was Ethan or Brent, they all looked at this man with surprised eyes, wondering why he said such a thing?
Although the endless land has always been regarded as a baseless rumor, it is still the driving force for countless adventurers to move forward to the end of the sea. If they didn't want to set foot on the endless land, how could they keep trying to hit the next sea area?
As a result, Brad now says that the endless land does not exist, which means that all adventurers lose their motivation to continue their efforts.
Without endless land, do they have to take huge risks to hit this death route? Is it still necessary to risk shipwrecks to cross stormy waters? They can stay in this sea area and live quietly. With their strength, they can live very well. Those ordinary adventurers have no capital to compete with them.
"Why are you so sure?"
Brad was silent for a while, as if he was struggling with something, but finally decided to speak up.
"Because I am from the Sea of Miracles."
"Sea of Miracles?" Ethan had heard this title from Beckford before: "You mean the next sea? Is it called the Sea of Miracles?"
When a normal person hears this name, the first reaction is that this sea area is full of miracles, so it is called this name.
But Brad's first sentence denies this.
"Everyone in that sea area is constantly praying for a miracle to happen..." Brad shook his head helplessly: "Only a miracle can save all the adventurers who don't know where they are going."
"I don't know where the road ahead is?" Ethan immediately grasped the point: "There is no new sea area after the Sea of Miracles?"
"No." Brad shook his head: "The Sea of Miracles is the end, and there are no new sea areas."
Ethan thought of the sea of storms surrounding several calm seas and the current sea area: "What is it like around the sea of miracles? Is it also surrounded by the sea of storms? If so, does the sea of storms become more terrifying, no Can people pass through?"
He wants to know more about the situation. If the Sea of Miracles is also surrounded by the sea of storms, then the so-called no way forward is a question mark. Maybe it's just that these adventurers don't have enough strength to pass through the blockade of the sea of storms; maybe the sea of storms around the sea of miracles is no longer like the previous two places, and a passage is deliberately left for adventurers to pass, but the adventurers need to face Impact the most terrifying storm waters.
As a result, the answer given by Brad made Ethan understand that the truth was not what he thought at all, and the situation was much worse than he thought.
"Around the Sea of Miracles? No...nothing!" Brad seemed to be a little excited, maybe thinking of something, and even raised his voice a little under the excitement: "There is nothing, no sea water, no land. , not even air!"
His suddenly high voice attracted the attention of some people around him. After realizing this, Brad tried to control his emotions, took a few deep breaths and regained his composure.
"Sorry, I remembered the first time I saw that place."
Brent didn't say anything, he understood. To find that everything he was looking forward to was just an illusory rumor, and he would have a feeling of collapse in exchange - he is a little broken right now.
Ethan is much better, he has too many cards, and there are countless planes for him to choose from. Although he can only stay in a certain plane for a year now, with his control of the shuttle magic circle more and more. The higher the level, the deeper the understanding, and sooner or later he will be able to completely turn this magic circle into his own magic. At that time, he could stay in any world as long as he wanted, and the so-called endless land was much less attractive to him than others.
In addition, Ethan is also very concerned about Brad's description: no water...no land...and no air...
"What is this? Cosmic space? But the edge of the sea is cosmic space..."
Ethan suddenly remembered that Loki once told him that this world is a world very similar to Asgard, and isn't Asgard just like that?
So this world is a plane, maybe there is a certain arc, which makes them appear in the line of sight little by little from the top when sailing, when the ships in the distance appear, just like sailing on the planet.
"An entire ocean, then separated into areas by storms... doesn't sound like a great place."
There are some vague guesses in Ethan's mind, but without real evidence, he doesn't want to say his guesses.
On the other hand, in the environment suspected to be space, it is clear at a glance that there is no land and no water. How did Brad know that there is no air?
After he asked his question, Brad gave the answer directly.
"I heard it from other adventurers at first, but I didn't believe it at first, so I went to verify it."
"How?"
Brad's method is not difficult, and it can even be said to be very simple. It is to catch a few animals that can fly, then go to the edge of the sea of miracles and let these animals fly far away.
"In order to determine the specific situation, I specially tied ropes to these animals, so that the bodies can be pulled back and the cause of their death can be determined."
Brad shook his head helplessly: "Except for some low-temperature frostbite, it is basically due to suffocation due to lack of air... In addition, these creatures will not fall after death, but will float there until we It was dragged back to a position close to the sea before it suddenly fell down."
Listening to Brad's description, even according to Ethan's barren knowledge of space, it is certain that the edge of this so-called sea of miracles is cosmic space.
"So, is the Sea of Miracles a ring around this sea area?"
Brad sketched it in his mind and found that Ethan's description was very accurate, and he also thought of the adventurers who lived on the sea of miracles, which is also a cycle that goes back and forth - sailing on this ring forever and ever, Find resources that will keep them alive.
