The elder in the purple robe stood calmly not far from Bai Yan, but the mysterious aura emanating from him was impossible to ignore. It felt as if he were a collection of vibrant melodies, rather than a living creature.
Bai Yan suddenly realized what this feeling was. When The Cursed String Music, played by Amicio, unleashed its overwhelming sorcery, he himself would also experience a similar sensation towards a multitude of spells.
But now, he felt a much stronger and more profound aura emanating from the Anomalous Star.
That body was no longer a mere flesh and blood.
He was the incarnation of sorcery.
"The Anomalous Star remained remarkably calm, as it slowly spoke, "Scarlet, why must you go to such lengths? The Babel Tower didn’t offend you, yet you seek to destroy it.""
The crimson mist surrounding the Crimson Sovereign continued to devour this dimension, and she responded accordingly.
The voice was incredibly ethereal, with echoes that seemed impossible to come from a "human".
"They… will eventually impede my plan… It’s better to take the initiative."Anomalous Star gazed at the other person and continued,
"So that’s the reason, it truly was for that pitiful wish."
"I have learned of your plan, Chairman Rock Morgan of the Ring City. I am fully aware of all your intentions… This dreadful plan will not only be stopped by Babel Tower, but I will also make sure you don’t succeed."
Crimson remained silent for a moment and then said, "You are the only god in ‘Rainbow’ who still cares about the people of Noah."
Indeed, the Heart of Radiance has fallen, Crimson, Dark Light, and Steel Alchemist have all turned against us, Fate’s Strings Master believes it’s none of their concern, leaving only Anomalous Star struggling alone.
Noah’s people have always worshiped the "Rainbow."
But the lofty "Rainbow" had no obligation to respond to the people of Noah.
God, never being a caretaker or refuge for humans, but rather an immensely powerful and tremendously fearsome presence, capable of altering the fate of all living beings at any given moment.
The Anomalous Star laughed, naturally providing an answer:
"I may have been an Anomalous Star for thousands of years, but I have also been a Noah for thousands of years… I am not as heartless as you all think. I still have attachments to this world. I have thousands upon thousands of descendants living in different places, constantly studying the spells I have created."
"And, the concept of magic has already become a part of me, and magic is a unique power system that only Noah possesses. If Noah were to disappear, I would also find myself in a terrible situation."
It turns out, Bai Yan suddenly realized, he had always believed that he was just one of the "Anomalous Star’s" primitive gods, but he never expected that his true essence was actually much closer to that of a conceptual deity.
Only, the concept was "magic."
But the concept of magic had not spread throughout the multiverse, its foundation remained almost entirely within Noah.
Therefore, the Anomalous Star had no choice but to make a desperate gamble, choosing to save World instead of fleeing from Noah’s world like the Fate’s Strings Master.
In the exchange between gods, Bai Yan remained silent, slowly restoring himself while observing the situation unfolding before him.
"Mr. Xia" had completely lost his fighting ability.
His two fused souls had both been injured, and he was forced to fall into a deep slumber.
Even if Mr. Xia were to wake up again, it would not be at this moment.
And before him, there was a mighty deity ready to fight with all its might.
So, Mr. Xia’s problem hardly seemed like a problem anymore.
Although Bai Yan could sense the vast difference between himself and the Connector, who had once killed a mighty deity, he felt that if Anomalous Star wasn’t by his side, he might have been swiftly taken down by a surprise attack.
However, with thorough preparation, the current Bai Yan, relying on Babel Tower, had the power to go against the gods.
Although there was a great likelihood of losing, the chance to win and the lack of a chance to win were completely different concepts.
Bai Yan spoke up, saying, "Even if you were to kill me, you cannot stop the Savior of Babel Tower… I am just an ordinary member among the many in Babel Tower."
Crimson Sovereign fell silent for a moment, seemingly understanding his words, and shook his head. "You are the leader of those members of Babel Tower, I can sense it… In this war, you are the only focal point."
"Once I make sure that you no longer exist, Babel Tower will definitely suffer a great blow."
Bai Yan fell into deep thought, unaware that he himself was the Savior of Babel Tower.
However, she could still feel that she was very important.
Was this the power and authority brought by the "war"?
"What do you really want?"
Bai Yan gazed at the deep red color and said in a low voice, "Based on the information we have, you have been controlling Rock Morgan in the Ring City for all these years, conducting massive human experiments in secret, attempting to study some kind of technology."
"This past year, you have hurt more than one person. Many people have suffered and even had their lives ruined because of your experiments… Crimson Sovereign, I will not forgive you. Not a single member of Babel Tower, nor the great Savior himself, will forgive you!"
"Just as you imagined… the Babel Tower is destined to be your enemy."
Anyway, the other party had already made up their mind to fight against the Babel Tower, and Bai Yan didn’t have to worry at all. He could just tear off the veil and confront them directly without any hesitation.
In the upcoming battle, our side will definitely have the advantage. The power of the Anomalous Star is slightly stronger than that of the Crimson Sovereign, and with my full support, we will prevail.
Bai Yan pondered carefully, feeling confident that he would not lose.
If that’s the case, then come on.
The Crimson Sovereign fell silent once more, then spoke words that left Bai Yan utterly astonished.
"My wish is very simple… it is to completely fade away and erase myself…"
What?
Bai Yan was taken aback.
An unexpected response that completely took him by surprise.
One of the majestic Rainbow Sovereigns, the legendary deity of "War", Crimson Sovereign, had a shocking revelation: her goal was none other than self-destruction, the elimination of her own existence.
Bai Yan was a little perplexed and couldn’t quite comprehend what was happening.
"You don’t understand, I don’t want to be a part of ‘war’. If there were other options, I wouldn’t even want to be involved."
Crimson Sovereign continued, saying:
"Among countless worlds, over countless thousands of years, within the vast crimson whirlpool born from the negative emotions generated by innumerable wars, I came into existence."
"The essence of war is violence and suffering. From the moment I was born, I have constantly lived in anguish. Countless negative emotions, countless anger, wailing, despair, curses… They always accompany me."
She looked at the lingering red mist that surrounded her. It was an incredibly powerful force, but it also brought constant pain to the girl.
"Rather than continuing to exist, it is better to disappear."
Bai Yan began to understand a little. Gods wanting to commit suicide was not an easy thing, especially for a conceptual god.
They wanted to disappear, and for that to happen, a concept had to vanish as well.
For example, "Food." If they wanted to completely kill Him, there must be no concept of "eating" left in the multiverse.
In the moment of being promoted to the symbol god, the conceptual god had already perfectly merged with this particular concept in the multiverse.
The Crimson Sovereign was the deity of "war." It is believed that in the multiverse, there is more than one god symbolizing the concept of "war."
If she wanted to end her almost eternal life, the only way was to make sure that the concept of "war" no longer existed in the multiverse.
Of course, if she succeeded, all the other conceptual gods symbolizing "war" would also disappear.
The voice of the Crimson Sovereign remained ethereal and said,
"To make ‘war’ disappear, there is only one way… I am trying to develop a ‘soul virus’ that can make the creatures of one world after another lose their ability to think aggressively. In this way, creatures will no longer have aggression, and ‘war’ will cease to exist."
Bai Yan understood. So, it turns out that the experiment Rock Morgan conducted on Amy was the "soul virus."
According to Amy’s recollection, the experiments would result in physical mutations. Perhaps, these changes were a reflection of the soul undergoing corresponding transformations.
He replied, "You are merely speaking in dreams. The multiverse is infinitely vast, how could you possibly eliminate the aggressive thoughts of everyone? Even if you were to modify the thoughts of mortals in such a way, conflicts would still exist among deities…"
Crimson Sovereign remained silent, taking a long while before offering his response.
"Babel Tower wanted to save the endless world that was destined to be destroyed, but was it just a foolish dream? Heart of Radiance, was it also sacrificed for an impossible cause?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yan finally fell silent.
He had come to understand why the Anomalous Star claimed the other had gone mad.
Perhaps, for the Fate’s Strings Master who was always ready to flee, the Anomalous Star was actually crazy.
As a mighty deity, he was surprisingly willing to stay here and be buried alongside Noah.
Even though everyone has a human side and a "anchor" within them, the more powerful they become, the further they stray from being "human" … In the eyes of ordinary people, this is seen as madness, extremism, and even incomprehensible.
With things having come to this point, there was nothing left to say. Talking further wouldn’t solve anything.
Everyone held firmly to their own entrenched positions, absolutely unwilling to give in.
"Ah, if I had a choice, I actually wouldn’t want to be enemies with any of the Rainbows."
Anomalous Star sighed.
Anyone could see that he was lonely and exhausted.
Even the lofty deities, still retain the emotions they had as humans before ascending to godhood.
"But at this point, I could no longer back down."
Just as the battle was about to erupt, the sky was suddenly enveloped in a dense crimson mist, slowly obscuring the face of the Scarlet Sovereign, a red-clothed young girl that Bai Yan could no longer see in front of him.
"It is not yet time… Only me… No certainty of victory…"
"We have to wait for them…"
"Almost there, very soon…"
Bai Yan frowned, knowing that the other person wanted to escape from this place.
He couldn’t keep the other person here, nor could he leave behind the "Mr. Xia" who had lost his fighting ability.
It was clear that Anomalous Star had no intention of stopping the other party. For Him, it was better not to take action if possible, and naturally, He didn’t.
Every time he acted, he would suffer from the backlash of Noah’s world consciousness.
If this battle really broke out, even if He won, there was a high probability that He would perish on the spot.
Willing to lend a hand to the Babel Tower, to lend aid to save the Noah’s world, but Anomalous Star also clearly didn’t want to perish. It was best to avoid a fight if possible.
When the red mist had completely dispersed, not only Crimson Sovereign and Mr. Xia, but even the Anomalous Star had vanished without a trace.
Bai Yan breathed a sigh of relief, yet also felt a hollow sense of disappointment.
Thought there would be an earth-shattering battle, but it abruptly came to an end. However, for some unknown reason, the sense of unease never seemed to go away…
"She said that she needed to wait for them, could they possibly be referring to…those two?"
Suddenly, Bai Yan instinctively looked at the countdown to the end of the "Babel Tower" game!
Time, it changed!
