Chapter 328 Lost Continent
From a scientific point of view, most of the stars that can be seen in the night sky are stars.

The nearest stars are several light years away from the Earth, which translates to more than tens of trillions of kilometers.

Theoretically, the movement of the starry sky observed by the naked eye comes from the rotation of the planets, not the movement of the starry sky. The starry sky should not suddenly accelerate.

Unfortunately, not everything in the abyss can be explained by science.

For example, in the starry sky above the sea at this moment, each star is moving at a tiny but visible speed, and if you observe carefully, you can see that the movement trajectory of each star is different.

The change in their positions did not come from the rotation of the planet under the feet of Wu Chang and others, but more like they were pulled by some force to where they should go.

call.

The wind blew at sea, and strong winds blew from the other side of the sea towards Briver Island. The wind carried a peculiar salty and fishy smell, like the stench of rotting seafood or the stench of unprocessed offal.

Wu Chang felt a slight stinging pain in the corner of his eye. He looked up in the direction where the pain came from and saw a star disappear in the sky.

He pointed to the direction where the star disappeared and said to Irene and the Mother Mary:
"Did the star there just now disappear?"

Before the two goddesses could see clearly, another star disappeared silently in the sky that Wu Chang pointed to.

The three of them looked at the disappearing stars in silence.

They could feel that the disappearance of the stars was not the ordinary "blinking of stars" that appeared and disappeared, but more like the annihilation of a ball of light.

No, it’s not annihilation. It’s more like a glowing sphere that just falls into a “hole” and disappears temporarily.

The disappearance of the two stars was just the beginning. Before long, every shining celestial body in the starry sky found a deep hole that suited it and disappeared into it.

The originally brilliant starry sky disappeared completely in just half an hour, leaving behind a dead silent sky.

After the stars disappeared, the half-risen moon seemed to have been pressed in reverse and sank into the sea in the direction it rose.

When the last ray of moonlight was submerged by the sea, the world fell into complete darkness, without a trace of light.

In a trance, the sky and the sea merged into one, chaotic and unclear, and the plane seemed to have returned to its most original state.

Wu Chang and the other two had the same thought in their minds: is this the return of the stars?

clap clap.

In the dead silence of darkness, crisp applause was heard.

Wu Chang couldn't help but applaud. He had entered many abyss copies and seen many copy bosses perform tricks.

But no matter whether it was the upper god Lehman, the top player Huanxi, or the natives of the wasteland, none of their works were as shocking as the scene before his eyes.

How do you say that?

Good job, be rewarded!
Irene was used to Wu Chang's behavior, but the Holy Mother had not yet adapted to it. She said dissatisfiedly:
"Mortal, what has suddenly seized you to such a madness? If your will is too strong to resist, just hide in the boat and wait like Gilman."

Wu Chang said:

"Don't you think this scene is shocking?"

The Virgin Mary sneered and said:

"A frog in a well, a mortal who has never seen the world, will be surprised when he sees a slightly complete kingdom of God."

"If you entered my dimension and saw my kingdom of God, wouldn't you be so surprised that you would kneel on the ground and beg to kiss my feet?"

Wu Chang asked back:
"But this is the Wilderness. Even if you are asked to prepare, can you build a kingdom of God of this level in the Wilderness?"

The Wilderness is restricted by plane barriers. If it were so easy to set up the Kingdom of God in the Wilderness, the Kingdom of God on Earth would not be one of the top mystical rituals in the Wilderness.

The Grand Mother said as a matter of course: "No, I am only surprised that the Lord of the Deep Sea can establish the Kingdom of God in the Wilderness. I am not surprised by the Kingdom of God like you are."

Wu Chang grinned and muttered, "When I elbowed you before, didn't you look like you had never seen the world before?"

Grand Madonna: “You!”

Wu Chang didn't wait for the Holy Mother to get anxious, and pointed to the distance and said:

"There's a vibration coming from over there, it seems like something is about to come out!"

The Great Virgin Mary also felt the movement in the distance. She stopped struggling with Wu Chang and her body floated into the air. Irene took Wu Chang's hand and also floated into the air.

The disappearance of moonlight and starlight had little impact on Wu Chang and his companions. Wu Chang activated the Eye of Breaking Laws, and the free elements in the air acted as light sources, allowing him to see clearly in the distance.

At the end of the sea, you can see a huge bulge emerging on the surface.

Because the two sides were too far apart, they could not visually estimate the height of the bulge, but as the bulge appeared, the sea level dropped significantly, showing the enormity of the object in the sea.

The rise of the object in the sea lasted for more than ten minutes, and when the sea water that wrapped it flowed down, a huge island was revealed in the huge water bag.

To be precise, it should be a continent.

The waves caused by the continent emerging from the sea alone are hundreds of meters high. If there were not some powerful constraints around the continent that automatically calmed the waves, the waves alone would be enough to destroy many coastal countries.

Wu Chang looked at the continent that suddenly appeared in the distance. He originally thought that the legend was somewhat exaggerated. The so-called continent was at most just a larger island.

But looking at the huge shadow in the distance, it seemed that the Lord of the Deep Sea really dragged a continent into the sea.

Is this the power of the complete Kingdom of God?

The power to comprehensively change the plane's topography has obviously exceeded the upper limit of the power that the Wilderness Realm can possess.

Without the help of the power of the Kingdom of God, even if he used the Root Knight to transform, or even doubled his attributes, it would be impossible for him to drag an entire continent into the sea like the Lord of the Deep Sea.

Thinking of this, Wu Chang did not feel trembling, but rather a little excited.

If the Great Virgin Mary is not being stubborn, then the kingdom of God used by the Lord of the Deep Sea is very ordinary among the middle-level gods. In other words, the complete kingdom of God that Irene will build with the pillars of the kingdom of God in the future will be able to possess or even exceed the power of the kingdom of God in front of her.

With just one move, the power to wipe out an entire continent would make anyone confused.

The emergence of the Lost Continent not only caused drastic changes on the sea, but also led to a rapid improvement in the level of the quiet town plane, directly upgrading from the C-level copy plane to the rational world.

The three of them waited in the air for a while, and Wu Chang pointed at the dead silent continent and said:
"It looks like the Lord of the Deep Sea is waiting for us to come over."

After hearing this, the Virgin Mary made a move to leave, "Then what are we waiting for?"

Wu Chang reached out to stop the Holy Mother and said:

"According to the internal intelligence I received, the Lord of the Deep Sea has a weakness, which is the fear of ship collisions."

After Wu Chang finished speaking, he looked towards the fleet brought by the Holy Mother and Archbishop Gilman.

"I wonder if I can borrow your boat for a while. If your followers are afraid of danger, you can let the islanders drive the boat."

After hearing this, the Holy Mother snorted coldly and said:

"Knights who can join the Knights of the State Church are all noble people who abide by the eight virtues of chivalry, are brave and humble, value honor more than life, and are not afraid of sacrifice."

"You are asking me if I can replace them with a bunch of rat-like islanders, which is the greatest insult to them."

Wu Chang shrugged and said, "I can apologize."

The Anglican Knights are not afraid of death? That's great. The islanders are all Irene's most staunch believers, and he really cares about their lives.

The Great Mother was too lazy to say more to Wu Chang. She raised her palms to the sky, and fierce white flames gushed out from her palms, forming a ball of holy fire like the sun above Briver Island.

As the white sacred flame rises, white lights can be seen lighting up on the ships parked in the surrounding waters.

One by one, the knights wearing light armor of the Knights of the Anglican Church came to the deck. They knelt on one knee, put their right fists on their left chests, and waited for the will of the Mother Mary.

The Mother Mother's cold expression when facing Wu Chang instantly changed to a look of compassion, and she said to everyone:

"My proudest children, the stars and the moon are disappearing, and the source of the shaking of the land and sea is the ancient demon awakening from the bottom of the sea."

"It rises from the bottom of the sea with the lost continent, and will bring about a flood with its evil followers, causing a world-destroying disaster."

"Are you willing to follow me to the land of chaos and evil to slay demons and bring light back to the world?"

The members of the Anglican Knights responded in unison:

"I wish to transform my body into the blade of my Lord's sword, so that the light of my Lord can illuminate the long night!"

The Great Virgin glanced at Wu Chang, and Wu Chang raised his thumb and gave a thumbs up.

The Mother Mother drove the Holy Fire, which hung over the fleet to dispel the darkness, and then said:
"Go, my proudest children, I will be with you."

A sharp whistle sounded, and within five minutes, the fleet was reorganized. More than a dozen of the most advanced steam-powered steel ships of the Ogri Kingdom, bearing the holy fire condensed by the Grand Mother, cut through the darkness and sailed at full speed towards the rising continent in the distance. Wu Chang, Irene and the Grand Mother stood on the deck of the flagship "Glory", looking at the Lost Continent gradually approaching in the distance.

The Grand Mother asked, "The battle could start at any time. Now is the time to tell us what weaknesses you know about the Lord of the Deep Sea."

Wu Chang did not hide anything and said, "He is also afraid of death."

The Virgin Mary frowned slightly and looked at Wu Chang with an expression like an old man on the subway talking on his cell phone. If you don't want to say it, don't say it. What do you mean by being afraid of death?

"Who isn't afraid of true and complete death? Are you afraid, or is she not afraid?"

The more powerful a life form is, the more it desires evolution and the more it fears death.

Because when an individual becomes strong enough, especially after activating his divinity and becoming a true god, he will no longer be troubled or affected by the mortal world.

There is nothing worthy of His attention and sacrifice except Himself.

The gods only look toward the future and themselves, and never dwell on anything else.

It is also for this reason that when faced with temporary death, gods can accept it calmly as long as it can achieve their goals, but when faced with complete death, gods are more afraid than mortals.

Even as powerful as the Miracle Walker and the Omniscient Crystal, who are suspected to be from the fourth layer of the Abyss, their most important thing is resurrection, not anything else.

Fear of death is not a weakness of gods.

Wu Chang explained: "He was extremely afraid and was not even willing to take any more risks for this."

After hearing this, the Holy Mother seemed to understand something and stopped talking.

A god who is extremely afraid of death and cautious to the point where it needs to be emphasized, if it is not his nature, then there is only one possibility, that is, what he wants to protect is more important than his life.

He dared not die, and could not die.

The fleet sailed in the dark sea for about twenty minutes. As it entered the waters outside the Lost Continent, thick fog began to spread around.

The battle with the murlocs a few days ago gave the Knights of the State Religion and the navy members some experience. They immediately went into combat mode and threw large clumps of smoldering water hyacinth into the surrounding sea.

Water bittern can suppress the perception of fish and suffocate them to a certain extent. After being processed through alchemy, this herb is also effective against murlocs, forcing them to emerge from the water earlier, making it easier to shoot them.

However, this time the operation was particularly smooth, and the fleet was not harassed by the fishmen along the way.

Everything was eerily quiet, and even the Mother Reverend Mother seemed nervous. She suspected that the Lord of the Deep Sea had gathered all his strength to give her a big blow when he landed on the island.

But in fact, the safe voyage was not because the Lord of the Deep Sea did not send out the mermen, or because all the mermen died on Briv Island.

Instead, Wu Changzhen and I followed the fleet all the way, transforming into a sea giant and swimming close to the bottom of the sea.

Whenever a fishman approaches, he will be thrown into the Blind Abyss to absorb its vitality.

Along the way, the Shanghai Giant killed more than a thousand murlocs, but due to the huge difference in strength between the two sides, it only gave him a 30-point increase in strength.

The fleet approached the land and began to enter the inland sea. The number of reefs around increased and the lighting equipment on the ship gradually failed.

At first it was torches, then alchemical oil lamps, and finally even the golden flame condensed by Irene was extinguished by the darkness, leaving only the white holy fire of the Virgin Mary still illuminating the way ahead.

The good habits developed by the three hours of tutoring made Irene ask the reason on the spot. Due to the divine contract, the Mother Mary could only teach Irene temporarily.

The reason why the White Holy Fire can continue to burn in the darkness is the characteristics of the middle god.

A demigod has divinity in his body. When the divinity is gradually perfected and connected to the root, and possesses the characteristics of light or other elements, it means that he has been promoted from a demigod to a low-level god and truly possesses divinity.

If one wants to become a middle-level god, one needs to combine with the kingdom of God, use the power of faith to integrate divinity, and create rules of one's own.

For example, the white holy fire of the Virgin Mary can remain unextinguished because the holy fire that never goes out is the rule condensed by the Virgin Mary.

Going further, if you can replace the rules of the surrounding world with the rules you control, then the rules will have a new name: power.

Under the careful guidance of the Mother Mary, the fleet stopped around the Lost Continent. Further inland, there were large areas of sharp reefs that were no longer suitable for the ships to move forward.

The Mother Mary sent out a ball of holy fire to illuminate the fleet, and then Wu Chang and Irene landed on the island.

After crossing the rocky beach, the three officially entered the Lost Continent.

I don't know if this land was originally like this or if it was influenced by the Lord of the Deep Sea, but the ground of the continent is made up of dark black stone. Every few steps, you can see a stone protrusion similar to a stele extending from the ground, which can be as short as a dozen meters or as long as hundreds of meters.

Perhaps because it had been buried in the deep sea for too long, the ground was extremely slippery, with a layer of black-green mucus all around, making a snapping sound when stepped on, and the smell and feel of the feet reminded people of undigested vomit.

In order to avoid contact with the disgusting mucus, the three chose to fly.

After flying into the mainland for a while, we gradually came into view the remains of the shattered city.

According to legend, a powerful civilization was once born on the lost continent that was dragged into the deep sea by the Lord of the Deep Sea. They possessed technology that far surpassed other countries of the same period, and the cities they built were so impressive that even gods would be amazed.

Judging from the preserved relics, this may not be an exaggeration.

Because in the ruins, huge stone tablets hundreds of meters high can be seen everywhere, and the stone tablets are engraved with hieroglyphs.

Thousands of years ago, making such a stone tablet was a huge project.

Far away from the three people, my true self ended its transformation into a sea giant and also walked in the ruins of the city.

He held a square New Year fire lamp in his hand. The red New Year fire was emitting light in the darkness. The darkness around it wanted to extinguish the New Year fire, but it was not affected at all.

From a certain perspective, the Suihuo itself also represents a certain rule, no less than the white holy fire condensed by the Great Mother using the rules of the intermediate gods.

The props recognized by the Abyss Game seem to be more powerful than imagined.

He held up a lantern and found an exceptionally tall stone tablet. He used the fire of the year to burn away the slime on it, then took out the all-knowing crystal and said:
"translate."

A moment later, a long string of words flooded into Wu Chang's mind.

The content of the text lacks substance and is full of clichés praising the gods' great achievements. It consists of tens of thousands of words, but can be condensed into just four words.

Forever God.

Judging from the translated text, the engraver wrote it from the perspective of the lost continent, but one point caught his attention.

That was the god praised on the stele, actually the Lord of the Deep Sea.

If the Lord of the Deep Sea had not sunk this land and then erected a stone tablet for himself after a long time, and then used human-sized tools to type words of praise for himself word by word, then he himself would be the god worshipped by this continent.

It’s quite interesting. Could it be that the sinking of the continent was actually the choice of the residents of the Lost Continent Kingdom themselves?

According to this line of thought, could the earliest fishmen be the inhabitants of the Lost Continent?
With this suspicion, Wu Chang could look for similar stone tablets or temple interpretations.

Finally, he saw the information he wanted in a temple.

The temple records all the worship ceremonies. In the last record, the name of Dagang, the king of Xilan and the high priest of the sea, is mentioned.

Right.

No wonder the Lord of the Deep Sea was able to condense a relatively complete kingdom of God in the wilderness. It turned out that it was the Kingdom of Xilan, not far from the center of the plane. They used the whole country's strength and faith to support the Lord of the Deep Sea.

The whole country devoted its efforts to supporting the gods, but ended up sinking the kingdom, and its subjects turned into fish-men, living forever in the dark deep sea.

It seems very ironic at first glance, but if you think about it carefully, Xilan had a population of millions, and although only a few thousand murlocs were left, their king Dagan truly became a god.

From Dagang's perspective, transforming from a human into a god is more than just winning, it's simply winning like crazy.

If Wu Chang hadn't intervened, the Lord of the Deep Sea would have woken up safely, and the plane would have been upgraded as well.

When one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit. Dagang can also be transformed from a native god of the wilderness to a true lower-level god. He can even become a middle-level god or even higher with the promotion of the Lord of the Deep Sea.

That’s the real win, a big win.

Unfortunately, he met Wu Chang.

On the other side, since Wu Chang had no means to decipher the text on the stone tablet, they did not stop and, under the guidance of the Great Virgin Mary, went straight to the center of the city.

The urban layout of Sealand is constructed in the shape of concentric circles. The closer to the center of the circle, the denser the buildings and the higher the specifications of the buildings.

Perhaps for this reason, the city center is more intact than the outside.

In the circular shape at the center of the city, stands a huge temple. A huge and ominous feeling emanates from the tightly closed door of the temple.

The Grand Virgin said: "This is the core of the Kingdom of God."
