Chapter 76: The Courage to Sacrifice
Zhang Heng discovered that the only way to prevent the gate from closing the road of the backtrack was to provide its energy. Rather than saying that his constant resurrection supported the gate, the gate was to extract its life energy by constantly killing him, and this energy was indirectly provided by the green oak mask, which could support the gate not to close.
And he could see everything Chu Hao experienced and saw in the backward path, as if they were not seen by the naked eye, but were directly transmitted to his mind through the spirit. He saw Chu Hao's birth, he saw Chu Hao's past, saw the sister who depended on each other, saw the elderly couple who treated him like a parent-child, saw the innocent and kind people in the town, saw how Organization C chased him and his sister, how he survived his childhood, how he found like-minded companions, and how he sacrificed those companions... and his heart.
This growth step by step, becoming stronger step by step, and creating a rebel organization with the remaining brothers and sisters step by step, becoming taciturn, only revealing his strong side, as if he was cold-blooded and ruthless...
Zhang Heng was silent and watched all this silently until the biggest change happened. It was a year after the establishment of the Rebels Organization, and a meme broke out somewhere on the earth. It was a meme called "Mushroom," which was very indescribable, very incomprehensible, and even impossible to believe and imagined. Once it exploded completely, once more people were removed, the entire world, humans, all living things, and even the earth would become nothingness.
It was a gambling, a gambling that was made with his life, his partner's life, his sister's life, and the existence of the entire human world. It was a gambling that should have been lost, but because of the road backwards, he now secretly entered that world, participated in this gambling, and then...
This is exactly what Zhang Heng saw now. He saw that Chu Hao had summoned all the souls of his friends. This was the last section of the entrance to the road to return to the backtrack. The two roads placed in front of Chu Hao, one was to secretly help himself at that time, as it happened in the original time flow, and finally seal the meme and eliminate all members of the C Organization that were blocking it.
And the other way... he can save his sister, his relatives, always protect him and warm him, like a role like his mother, the greatest softness in his heart, the greatest taboo in his heart, he... can save her.
At this moment, even Ares, who had been attacking Zhang Heng, stopped. He and Zhang Heng both focused on Chu Hao's choice, looking at the choice of this crying, humble, and cowardly mortal.
"Save her, save your own heart, Captain Idiot, this world can turn without anyone, but without her, I will lose her again, and your hands ruin her, can you not fall into depravity? Don't worry about the righteousness, don't worry about anything, don't worry about what the world will be like, I support this door, I will definitely...can support you until you return, so, save her."
Zhang Heng roared loudly regardless of everything. He had already seen the slap and roared with the greatest strength in the endless pain that had been shattering his body. He wanted to convey his heart to Chu Hao, in a trance, in a trance...
In those countless billions of years ago, which were so far away that many years ago, in that age when the world was just beginning to open and the chaos was still unknown, he was no longer Zhang Heng. In a trance, he felt that he was born with the world, but because he was born late and did not absorb enough nutrients, so he seemed very weak. In a trance, he was seriously injured in a predatory battle and was rescued by a acquired garbage and weak "food"...
In a trance, inexplicable memories surged into his heart. He could no longer tell what reality is, what memory is, and what fantasy is. He only used the biggest roar to scream out the words buried in his heart that had been buried for countless years.
"Live for yourself, don't sacrifice yourself to protect others."
"This chaos of the strong prey on the weak, such cruel and dark, without you, I will destroy this world"
In the picture of the road backwards, Chu Hao, who was already crying as if he had made a decision, ran to the meme burst range, and used his greatest strength to reach the core, and then hugged the woman who had been waiting to die with a smile on her face. At this moment, the world line... time line... causal line... changed...
"Hahahaha, it's true, with a righteous look. In the end, isn't it so hypocritical and hypocritical? Isn't it better to choose myself from the beginning, and I'm hypocritical and hypocritical to save everyone..."
However, Ares seemed to have seen a very funny joke, or because he betrayed the Olympian gods, he could not stand the light or the kindness, and always expected others to become his own darkness and sin, so as to get balance. He laughed out loud, and at the same time planned to continue attacking Zhang Heng.
At first, when he saw Zhang Heng, the moment the minced meat was restored to human form, he trembled all over. Zhang Heng's eyes, what kind of eyes were, he could not describe it carefully in words, only knowing that he was afraid, and he was a mortal who was dying constantly, and even if he was intact, he could not hurt his slightest ant, but that look...
"Don't laugh at a man's courage to sacrifice, Ares... I will kill you." Zhang Heng looked at Ares quietly, and said such words while constantly smashing and restoring.
Ares took a step back, then suddenly turned red, and roared loudly: "You mortal, you damn mortal, can't you die obediently? Don't bother us gods like this? Haven't you seen it? Your captain, this hypocritical mortal, has disappeared on the timeline because he looked back on the road of hell, and in the law of cause and effect, soon, all his traces will disappear, and you will never remember him again. Everything you did is futile. I want to kill you." As he spoke, he had burst out his greatest power, his whole body was shining with light, and his sacred majesty. In this way, the appearance and image of the god turned into a flash of light and blasted towards Zhang Heng, who was hanging on the gate of the road of retracement. Once and again, he completely beat Zhang Heng into flesh paste, so that Zhang Heng could not roar any words again...
At the same time, on the road of retrospection, Chu Hao's figure began to fade away, as if it was wiped out by something, gradually fading away. However, at this time, an unknown force maintained Chu Hao's last and most basic existence, forcibly distorting the world line, time line, and the existence of the law of cause and effect.
This power is something that Zhang Heng, Ares, even Chu Hao himself, or almost all existences in this plane cannot perceive. Not only them, but even the great and vast existences in the entire multiverse watching all this, they cannot perceive and imagine. Only a very small number of existences can truly feel it, and such an existence... is the only one in this plane.
"This is...this is..."
On the human-shaped mountain, the part of the human-shaped eyes suddenly opened, and blood-red lights were transmitted from the eyes. At the same time, in the extreme distance from the underworld plane, it represents the true place of death, destination, rest and nirvana. The manifestation of death and nirvana in the multiverse, somewhere under the suppression of a huge roulette, a huge human-shaped creature with two horns, three heads and six arms, and blood flowing all over his body stood up. Since the human history and being exiled, this existence was moved for the first time and the first time such a fierce action was so intense. He did not care about the energy fluctuations that erupted because of his actions, which caused heavy casualties and injuries among his tribesmen. He now didn't care about everything...
"How is the world... possible? How can the world be human..."
The human-shaped mountain did not care about the magic circle under his feet, and the three living gods Zeus, Poseidon and Athena who were still being extracted from the energy, he pulled his feet and left the range of the magic circle, which also made the magic circle invalid. At the same time, bright red magma began to surge out of the giant mountain, and the human-shaped mountain did not turn back, and rushed towards the road of retracement with great strides.
"Kill you, kill you, kill you, kill you..."
Ares roared wildly and beat Zhang Heng wildly. In fact, neither he nor Zhang Heng noticed that the door to the road back had stopped closing, but both of them stood there inertially, until Ares was tired of fighting and almost fell into a coma, Zhang Heng stood there and gasped. Then, he heard Zhang Heng's words that had not stopped yet, ignited his anger again...
"...No, don't laugh at...the courage of a man to sacrifice..."
Ares roared wildly again, lifting Zhang Heng up and slamming towards the ground, but at this moment, the top of the sky suddenly cracked open, a huge amount of lightning burst out from the crack of the sky, and then several lights shot down like lightning. One of them shot behind Ares almost in the blink of an eye, grasping his arm, and Zheng Zha's voice also sounded.
"I have seen it all, I have seen it all... Zhang Heng, Chu Hao, I agree with you...and then..."
