Chapter 1295: Chapter 574: Six Trillion Times of Despair_2
"The mechanical being led me into a hidden underground chamber, where ten different kinds of battle armors, as well as a black square box, were stored."
"The mechanical being told me that the box was named ’Mechanical Heart,’ and the ten armors were the Origin Battle Armors, all bona fide divine creations. Whoever could control these armors could easily defeat the Demon Eye Tribe. However, only living beings could control the Mechanical Heart; it couldn’t use it by itself and thus required my assistance."
"The Mechanical Heart and Origin Battle Armors, in principle, should not be discovered by living beings because their power is too vast, capable of overturning Eden, even the Star Spirit World. In the hands of those with malicious intent, the consequences would be unimaginable." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"However, the mechanical being had no other choice but to make use of the Origin Battle Armors, as Eden was on the brink of destruction, and I too was at my wit’s end. Our interests aligned instantly, and I entrusted my soul into the Mechanical Heart, controlling all the Origin Battle Armors to wage war against the Demon Eye Tribe..."
"These armors, truly the work of gods, made the Demon Eye Tribe no match for them; hundreds of thousands of their forces were slaughtered by me overnight..."
"The rebellion was finally quelled, and by that time, the remaining population and races in Eden were so few, there was no longer a need to fight over resources. There was peace once more for a while, and the mechanical beings began rebuilding factories, slowly regaining vitality, and everything returned to normal..."
"Still, the same old problem persisted; peace was always temporary. Eden’s resources were limited, and the mechanical beings continued to integrate new races. Once the population of a race reached a certain threshold, a new great war was once again inevitable..."
"The history of bloodshed was like a cycle, constantly replaying in Eden, which should have been a utopian sanctuary. And I became nothing more than a tool of slaughter for the mechanical beings, continuously helping them suppress rebellions, striving to maintain the order of Eden..."
"During that time, there were races that couldn’t stand the chaotic life, attempting to leave Eden and return to the outside world, only to be rejected by the mechanical beings; their justification being that the existence of Eden must remain secret. Besides, the entire Star Spirit World was rapidly contracting; there was no living space for them outside. Whenever eras changed, these races, no longer recorded on the server, were the first to be eradicated. Even if they left, they would sooner or later return, only to bring more trouble to Eden..."
"Moreover, there was a new problem—the mass death of the Magic Crystal Flowers. Perhaps due to the lack of maintenance of World-Creating Mountain over a long period, the Magic Crystal Flowers gradually began to wither en masse, which led to a steep decline in the source of Pure Magic..."
"As for Magic Power, all of you who have consumed ’Magic Crystal Flowers,’ as well as your descendants, should be able to produce it, right?" the Medicinal Plant Gatherer interjected at this point.
From her previous description, the Magic Crystal Flowers here could essentially be replaced with what we now call ’vaccines,’ and vaccines can endow people with the ability to produce Magic Power.
"Yes, all beings in Eden are capable of generating Magic Power. In theory, as long as there is a certain population surviving in Eden, even if all the Magic Crystal Flowers were to go extinct, it would not matter. However, things are not that simple..."
Taurus shook its head, "I don’t know much about the principles behind the Magic Crystal Flowers. Once they enter a living being’s body, to produce Magic Power, one must absorb the life force of the living being. Moreover, the quality of the produced Magic Power is also affected by emotions."
"The consumption of life force is reflected in the lifespan; the natural rate of lifespan depletion for all beings in Eden is twice that of normal people."
"Meanwhile, if a being maintains positive emotions such as happiness, positivity, or even a neutral emotional state, then the produced Magic Power will be normal Pure Magic."
"But if a being harbors negative emotions such as anger, terror, or evil thoughts, they will not only produce Pure Magic but also generate a portion of contaminated Magic Power, which is Black Magical Power."
"Since the Magic Crystal Flowers don’t have emotions, they almost exclusively produce Pure Magic. Human emotions, however, are hard to control. Once the production process is transplanted to humans, the generation of contaminated Magic Power becomes inevitable."
"So does that mean, the Star Spirit World of the past was devoid of Black Magical Power?" the Medicinal Plant Gatherer asked.
"Not exactly," Taurus replied, "Magic Crystal Flowers also occasionally produce a minute amount of contaminated Magic Power, but the amount is extremely insignificant, nearly negligible. Moreover, the gods specifically created the Forest Spirit race to eliminate the polluted Magic Power in the air, to prevent the formation of Black Magical Power..."
The Medicinal Plant Gatherer nodded to prompt Taurus to continue.
"As time passed, the proportion of contaminated Magic Power in Eden began to increase. This contaminated Magic Power would, in turn, affect the emotions of the beings in Eden, making them produce violence and malice involuntarily, and consequently generate more contaminated Magic Power, thus creating a vicious cycle..."
"Left with no other choice, the mechanical beings had to emulate the Forest Spirit’s principle, creating devices that purified Magic Power. However, these devices could only extract contaminated Magic Power but could not neutralize it. Thus, all the polluted Magic Power from Eden had to be expelled back into the Star Spirit World, letting the vastness of the Star Spirit World digest it..."
Mu You and the Medicinal Plant Gatherer listened with odd expressions on their faces. In this way, while Eden remained pure, it was the Star Spirit World that suffered the consequences.
