Purcell: Lord of the Void
Chapter 641: Temple Bell
The fusion of the universe and the unification of all realms are both a blessing and a challenge for the Seer universe. While the overall combat power of the universe has been greatly improved, hidden dangers have also been buried.
The people of the Heroes' Temple also understood this principle, but as extraordinary beings, they handled the situation with surprising alacrity. They first summoned the leaders of each plane and frankly disclosed the situation facing the universe.
Most of the plane leaders were stunned when they heard this news. As appendages of the main universe, the planes and the main body of the Seer universe inherently have an irreconcilable gap. This gap is comprehensive, and naturally also reflected in the level of human cognition.
It's no exaggeration to say that the Hero Temple, the King's Sanctuary, and other renowned powers, even the Seer, were too powerful to be provoked by those present. Among the numerous powers present, many civilizations were still in their infancy, never having left their home planets.
Talking to them about things like the Void Invasion and the survival of the universe would be like talking to a cow. However, the Temple heroes knew this, and all they had to do was inform them.
"All living things have the right to know and the right to participate, but they absolutely do not have the right to make decisions." This is what the Lord of the Temple has always warned them, and it is no different today.
"Although I don't quite understand, my reason tells me that we are about to face an unprecedented storm. Only by working together can we get through this. I, Clayford, am willing to join the Seer Universe on behalf of the Industrial Association." A burly young man said firmly, his eyes sparkling. Although he is still young and has a bit of bookish air, his muscles are unambiguous. It is obvious that he is a loyal fan of "The Analects of Confucius".
This is the leader of the "Industrial Association", one of the two major forces on Lorinka Star - Clayford.
"Since Lord Clay has said so, then the Gathering of Stars also agrees with the merger." The speaker was a gentle and dignified woman with a constant soft smile on her face. She was a little older, but her appearance was still beautiful.
The guide of the "Gathering of Stars" - Beliant.
The two leaders of Lorinka had both expressed their opinions, proving that the planet had made its own decision. Even though a blond man behind them had a stern expression, veins bulging on his forehead, and seemed very dissatisfied with their decision, it was of no use here.
Among the many forces present today, Lolinka wasn't considered powerful, and was even quite weak. To date, it had never ventured beyond its home planet, but as the first organization to express its stance, its significance was immense. Before the meeting was even over, Maltese and the Mysticks had already arrived.
This was both a commendation and a demonstration. The representatives of other factions also expressed their opinions upon seeing this. They said that the blue-haired guy was easy to deal with, but it looked like the yellow-haired guy was really hard to deal with.
"On behalf of our Master, I welcome everyone. I will ring the bell three times in congratulations." Disciple Kong Huixing gracefully stepped forward. Her stunning appearance and elegant demeanor instantly captured the attention of the entire audience, many of whom were fascinated. However, Disciple Kong Huixing remained composed and gently struck an ancient bell hanging in the hall.
The bell's body was simple and heavy, imbued with a unique aura etched by time. It was immediately apparent that it was anything but ordinary. The bell's tone was deep and dull, not particularly loud, yet it strangely resonated throughout the universe, even being clearly heard by those in retreat.
Most spirits found the sound of the bells to be melodious, their annoyance alleviated. A small minority, however, would reveal painful expressions, feel a tightness in their chests, and in severe cases, even writhe on the ground.
There was even an extreme case where the fire immediately burst into flames. Unfortunately, the person was in the conference room.
"Folmesus, what's wrong with you? Sir, what is going on?" Beliante said anxiously. Although she also disliked this extreme racist, he was the second most important person after herself in the gathering of stars. He was burned to ashes in public, and she could not bear the shame.
She approached him, attempting to rescue him. But the flame was strange. Beliante felt no effect when touched, and even felt a slight warmth. But when placed on him, it was a deadly threat.
"Save me, save me. I don't want to die, no..." Formosus cried miserably, but his cries soon stopped. The golden flames burned him to ashes, leaving no ash.
He died just like that. This once wealthy businessman, powerful enough to decide the fate of an organization or a region, died just like that. His death was meaningless, even a little ridiculous.
"Sir, what's going on?" Beliante asked in a cold tone. After all, they are on her side, how many are there? I want an explanation.
"It seems that this gentleman is indeed not a good person. Even the Cathedral Bell is unwilling to give him another chance." Kong Huixingtu said with regret, but anyone could hear the deep contempt in her words.
This is not a problem of the quality of Konghui Xingtu, but because, according to the judgment standards of the Temple Bell, anyone who can be directly sentenced to death must have some ability.
As a top-tier artifact comparable to the Temple Crystal Ball, the Temple Bell's effect is characterized by a masterly crafted, uncomplicated aesthetic, and a profound simplicity. Its effect is incredibly simple: its chimes produce different effects based on the good and evil of an individual.
For kind and compassionate elves, the sound of his bell is the ultimate psychological therapy, soothing emotions, regulating thoughts, and even healing psychological trauma. Many elves with psychological trauma will gradually heal after hearing his bell, their wounds no longer trapped in painful memories, and they will gradually move on to a new life.
Perhaps influenced by the noble and kind soul of its owner, it has an exceptionally lenient assessment of goodness. Even without much actual action, just maintaining the most basic human empathy—offering a seat on the bus or helping an old lady cross the street—can be considered kindness and receive blessings.
When judging evildoers, the standard is extremely cautious. If someone merely harbors evil thoughts but has not yet acted, or commits evil deeds unconsciously, they are not within its scope of attack. Only those spirits who truly harbor evil intentions and have committed sins will be punished.
However, punishment is generally not fatal. For evil people as usually defined, it is just chest tightness and shortness of breath, as well as back pain and leg numbness. Even if it is a cosmic prison that holds the most vicious criminals in the universe, as long as the prisoner still has a trace of kindness in his heart, even if he has done a good deed, he will not be put to death directly.
Honestly, judging by this standard, aside from those bastards from the Yongxing Council, the villains in Seer probably don't deserve the death penalty. Even Demon King Zack is a bit hard to say.
After listening to Kong Hui Xingtu's story, everyone's expressions became subtle again, and their eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of Beiliante. As eyewitnesses, they knew the situation best.
They were all seasoned veterans, having weathered the storms for years, most of them had blood on their hands. At most, they only suffered heartburn, not life-threatening danger. Therefore, they were relatively receptive to Kong Hui Xing Tu's explanation.
So, under such relaxed conditions, Formosus was still sentenced to death, which seemed quite problematic, and the pressure was once again put on Beliant.
"I declare that Formosus's status as a member of parliament will be immediately revoked, all personal property and honors will be stripped away, his political rights will be revoked for life, and he will be expelled from the Gathering of Stars." Beliant reacted quickly and announced the subsequent arrangements for him on the spot.
After all, if I don't hurry up, I, the guide of the stars, will probably be blamed.
After a short episode, everyone started discussing the many issues related to the merger. The atmosphere instantly became lively and there was a happy scene.
The Seer Universe had just experienced a major war, and the personnel shortage was too great. Even with the recruitment of so many people, the staff was still a bit tight. In this relaxed environment, everyone found a position that satisfied them.
"Fortunately, Tianxie helped us escape in time. Otherwise, if we really attracted the attention of those above, we wouldn't even know how we died." The Hades Emperor Shura sighed, although he had long known the insurmountable gap between them and the Temple.
But in the past, this disparity was mostly reflected in the elves' individual strength. The lower world elves actually knew very little about the temple's inner workings. Today was truly an eye-opener. This thing, while it might not be able to instantly kill me, the intense pain, almost like a controlled force, was enough to turn the tide in battle.
"But this thing is so useful, why didn't you take it out during the battle with the Void?" Wesker couldn't help but mutter. The effect of this powerful control on a battlefield with large-scale cluster confrontations is simply immeasurable.
This question was also a puzzle in everyone's mind. Out of curiosity, Lan found an opportunity to ask the Star Emperor Hanyu who came to inspect in person.
"The holy sword in your hand is also the artifact of the god Leda, and it was forged by him personally. Can you use it to cut down Bai Ye or the two gods?" Star Emperor asked back.
Lan shook his head like a rattle. He had used this trick before when facing Bai Ye. At that time, the opponent had not yet obtained the complete inheritance of the two gods, but had only inherited part of the mantle of the God of Night. As a result, the opponent just stood there motionless and let him chop at will. As a result, his holy sword was almost smoking, but he still couldn't chop the opponent.
"Similarly, weapons used by gods themselves are called artifacts, but gods never need artifacts to prove themselves. Although void creatures vary in strength, they are essentially the product of the geological evolution of "Wu" and are completely fabricated by Wu.
To judge them, in the final analysis, is to judge Wu, who is clearly not subject to judgment, and certainly no one can judge Him."
"Ah, what a depressing truth. But... according to this logic, if we just eliminate the source of "Wu", these troublesome void creatures will disappear?!"
"Of course, provided you can do it. If you want to try, I don't mind helping you."
"Forget it. I just said it, well, just for fun." Lan was a little embarrassed. Although he was a little reckless, he was not stupid.
I typed "兀", is it true or not?
