Chapter 549:
Bai Yan made an attempt. He ventured into the depths of his own heart, seeking the secret of his true essence.
At the very core of his soul, he explored deep within the ocean of consciousness and discovered fragments of memories about the Connector and the God of Games, one after another.
Both the Connector and the God of Games were mad, almost devoid of emotions, willing to do anything to become powerful.
Both subordinates and descendants with bloodlines can be abandoned and sacrificed at any time and anywhere.
No, within the connection of the Connector, there were simply no subordinates; what he had were merely…
A slave.
Even though he also wished to save the multiple universes, but more than anything, it was for his own sake.
Bai Yan increasingly realized that he and them were fundamentally not the same person, but rather completely different beings.Even though, I was born because of everything they did.
Even though my gifted powers were shackles of darkness imposed upon others.
But I am definitely not like you.
Finally, Bai Yan discovered a crucial memory fragment. It was left behind by the Connector and the God of Games, a piece of memory that belonged to the Savior.
Savior!
He suddenly understood his origin.
In reality, the true Savior.
Long ago, it had already vanished and faded away.
He was nothing more than…
The charred remains gave birth to a living being.
The fusion of the Connector and the God of Games ultimately… failed!
In the final step of the fusion, both sides were vying to seize control over the newly born "Savior" of existence.
They refused to yield to each other, engaged in a furious struggle, and in the very end, both powerful souls could only crumble and be destroyed.
Yes, the Babel Tower’s "Savior" didn’t truly come into existence in the real sense.
The entire plan to save World was declared bankrupt from the very beginning.
Whether it was the Connector or the God of Games, they both deeply regretted staying within Bai Yan’s body and the fragments of consciousness from the "Babel Tower" game.
If they could start over, they would still attempt to merge together.
But they would never give up!
The Savior briefly came into existence in a fleeting moment during the merge, and then crumbled and disintegrated, leaving behind only fragments and ashes.
That should have been the Savior who had the chance to become an Outer God!
Born from two wicked souls!
Now, there are only fragments and ashes left!
Bai Yan was born from a fragment of these remnants and ashes, an extraordinary occurrence, a coincidence, a being beyond fate, from an immensely powerful divine energy.
Not counted.
He gazed at the mesmerized Mu Ling and spoke honestly, without reservation:
"I am debris, I am ashes, I am the result of accidents and coincidences. I am a peculiar being born from the body of the fallen ‘Savior’ of the almost Outer God…"
Ever since he discovered this matter, Bai Yan has understood everything.
Why is it that even though I can clearly activate the Babel Tower and have the authority to enter it, the Babel Tower didn’t want to acknowledge itself as the Savior from the very beginning?
Because the Babel Tower possesses self-awareness, it naturally understood that it wasn’t the intended, true "Savior" planned by the two Outer Gods.
But it had no other choice, so it had to accept itself and continue the Babel Tower game.
Why was the version of me from over a decade ago almost devoid of emotions, while the present me is already quite different?
Because, they were not truly a human being.
In the beginning, they were merely two remnants and remnants of extremely powerful beings, almost devoid of emotions. They were a strange and formidable entity, not yet fully developing a unique human personality.
The life here shaped the true Bai Yan.
Occasionally leaving messages in the game "Babel Tower" might be some fragments of the God of Games, while the Connector yearns for revival and possession deep within their consciousness.
Bai Yan revealed his true identity completely.
He gazed at Mu Ling, waiting for her response.
Regardless of the circumstances, Bai Yan finally ceased his concealment at this moment.
He was not a master who desired to enslave everyone, nor was he an evil god who sought to manipulate World in secret. There was simply no need for him to constantly conceal secrets from his friends and loved ones.
Now, the time has come.
Mu Ling took a deep breath.
She still remembered that terrifying night when she had almost lost everything, but suddenly received an unsettling redemption.
She remembered everything that happened next.
It was him who restored her dignity, honor, strength, future, hope…everything!
How could she possibly forget?
"No matter who you are, whether you are the chosen Savior in that grand plan…at this very moment, you are the Savior of Babel Tower, and also the Savior of the Noah world."
Mu Ling paused for a moment, her eyes glistening with moisture.
"And, you are also my only Savior."
"Yes," she replied.
Even if he wasn’t the fated chosen one, so what? He had always prayed, admired, and longed for guidance…
That great presence that gave him strength, gave him a future, gave him hope…
From the very beginning, wasn’t it only him after all?
Right at that moment, the sky turned dark.
But it wasn’t because of the night, all the stars vanished without a trace at that very moment.
Mu Ling lifted her head, feeling an immense sense of threat deep within her heart.
The almost unimaginable power, the presence that filled one with fear, even causing her, who had already become a deity, to tremble with fear.
"How could it be?"
She looked up at the sky in almost despair.
Dozens of Outer Gods!
They unexpectedly began to erode Noah’s world, simultaneously.
The Lord of Ashes, the master of chaos and destruction!
The Eternal Nightmare King, the ruler of dreams!
The Watcher of Chaos, a terrifying being born from chaos and darkness!
The Ancient Spirit, the master of strangeness!
The wild waves, a synonym for evolution!
The Womb of the Sea, a symbol of birth and reproduction!
Weird Evil, the essence of aging and sickness itself!
Obscure Changer, the power of darkness and light!
Hollow Giant, the Emperor of Unknown and Nothingness!
King of Deep Blue, the various mysteries hidden within colors!
In the depths of the Black Abyss Deep Sea, a fearsome devourer of fear and curses!
In the Colorless City, a kingdom immortalized by war and weapons!
The Twelve Outer Gods!
The people of the entire world of Noah still knew nothing, but Mu Ling was on the verge of collapsing. She knew that it was only because she was strong enough that she could sense everything beforehand.
In just a dozen minutes more, this world would be completely disintegrated and utterly destroyed.
No force could stop them.
The "immunity" of World consciousness also had its limits.
"How could this be? Why now, of all times?"
Mu Ling was completely engulfed by great terror, but Bai Yan, who was standing beside her, appeared calm.
"Because, the ultimate seal has been broken… In the past, the Rainbow created a seal as a sacrifice to the Ultimate Witch, but now, at this moment, it has finally lost its effect."
"They didn’t need to rely on any other beings to come down anymore."
"But instead, they could directly destroy this place."
He took a deep breath, feeling not the slightest fear, but rather a sense of relief and ease.
Finally, they arrived.
Actually, they had already known deep down that this moment would come.
After the Doomsday Crisis, a mighty Outer God… reached out and communicated with them personally.
He appeared in Bai Yan’s dream, introducing himself as a café owner, representing the will of the "Master of Ceremony" and another Outer God called "Origin."
The man was very gentle and elegant, giving off a warm and friendly vibe, not at all like a terrifying being capable of destroying countless worlds.
But Bai Yan knew very well that the other person was a mighty Outer God!
One of the three pillars!
Master of Ceremony!
"The plan of the Babel Tower should have failed."
The man spoke.
"Babel Tower, it is a relic called the Ruin-level Relic that represents the beginning. Inside the tower, there is the origin of everything, which I have improved to fit the ‘Babel Tower’ game."
"And ‘Babel Tower’ is the ultimate ritual within the ultimate ritual."
"It was me, who, using the power of the Connector and the God of Games, created the ceremony of ‘Babel Tower’."
Just as Alan had said at the very beginning.
"The ceremony is a game, and the game is a ceremony."
Bai Yan finally understood how the power within the Babel Tower came to be.
So it turned out, the Ruin-level Relic, which held the origin of all power, naturally possessed an endless "card pool".
Unfortunately, those powers were merely the origins and could not compare to the true power of an Outer God.
But there was another thing that made Bai Yan feel even more shocked.
《Babel Tower》
It was the only one in the Multiverse, used for the ceremony to elevate an Outer God!
The man continued, "The plan was a complete failure from the beginning, both the Connector and the God of Games, they both had the idea of becoming the Savior’s consciousness, and in the end, they both suffered defeat…"
"But then, an unexpected event occurred."
He looked at Bai Yan.
There was a subtle touch of emotion in his gaze.
"You are the product of chance, serendipity, beyond fate… one could also say, a miracle and hope."
"We still have to continue our fight against the growing power of ‘The End’… We are unable to provide substantial help, so you still have to rely on yourselves to overcome the crisis."
"In a complete salvation plan, the Babel Tower is not our only method…but out of the 15,300 plans we have implemented, maybe you are the only one who can achieve success."
"You are the only factor that went beyond all the plans, without relying on any of us to get here."
"Noah saved successfully, time after time… Whether it was luck or hard work, it was praiseworthy no matter what."
"But the Outer God will eventually devour Noah completely."
"And only one way can save everything…"
—
Bai Yan took a deep breath.
He looked at Mu Ling, recalling all that he had experienced.
Bai Yan smiled.
"I am playing a fun game."
No matter what, we must not let the Outer Gods take over this world.
Noah is the "foundation" of the multiverse, its existence is truly crucial. The Outer Gods can use this world to exert influence over the entire multiverse.
Faced with the invasion of numerous Outer Gods, there was only one option left.
Without the gentleman’s reminder, Bai Yan had already known.
Black Eagle Seal.
The reason it is called "Black Eagle Seal" is because the person who sacrificed in ancient times was named Black Eagle. So, "Black Eagle Seal" is not its real name, of course.
It is a "Ruin-level Relic" that belongs to the Master of Ceremony, the most powerful in the multiverse, even causing fear in the Outer Gods.
Its pronunciation contains parts that humans cannot understand, but if we were to interpret it according to human thinking, the meaning of this seal would be "the Seal of Reversal."
Now, only by using it can the upcoming Outer Gods be sealed!
