The courtyard of Midsummer Queen has the same scenery as usual.
Flowers bloom in the courtyard, swaying gently in the wind, exuding a light fragrance, and a sense of tranquility fills every inch of the air.
However, Red Iron Dragon's expression is far from peaceful.
After learning from Titania about the madness hidden under the peaceful surface of Multiverse, it was inevitable that the peace and tranquility he felt due to Titania's previous comfort seemed to slowly fade away.
A feeling of uneasiness quietly grew in my heart again.
Garos feels that he is still too naive.
He thought that by using Great Expedition, he was seeking a dominant position in Material Plane in disguise, gaining a firm foothold, and blocking all the disputes outside the barriers of Material World, so that he could find another way and obtain the peace he wanted to a certain extent.
Looking at it now, it was so naive.
Even if I really become the master of Material Plane, I still haven't reached the point where I can truly feel at ease.
No matter how big Material Plane is, it is only a part of Multiverse. Those beings who have lived for who knows how many thousands of years go crazy, and the wave they set off may spread to the entire Multiverse, and no one can avoid it.
Titania noticed the changes in Garos.
Her eyes fell on Red Iron Dragon's slightly wrinkled scales, and she saw the uneasiness flickering in his eyes.
"My dear Garos, I know what you are thinking now."
"You may think that Multiverse where we are is too dangerous. There are madmen hiding everywhere, which makes you feel deeply uneasy."
She paused, smiled slightly at Red Iron Dragon, and said softly, "But you don't need to be so nervous."
"Except for special beings like Dragon God, the vast majority of extremely paranoid powerful beings exist in Immortal Life or Primordial Wild God."
"We have separate names for them, Disorderly Ones, Disorderly Ancient Gods."
"However, in the entire Multiverse stage, Disorderly Ancient Gods only occupies a few seats."
"Our normal gods, whether good or evil, all invisibly dominate the operation of Multiverse, and will not let them be unscrupulous."
"That's not something you should consider at the moment."
Titania's words made Garos fall into deep thought.
Among the gods, there are also different Pantheon and multiple camps.
But if you think about it carefully, the disputes between gods, no matter what Pantheon or camp they are, always follow a certain tacit understanding and are struggles within a framework and will not cause too large-scale hidden dangers.
In contrast, those thoughts that exist out of order are completely unpredictable. They may be spur of the moment, or they may have been planned for a long time and are ready to overturn the table at any time.
Garos Take a deep breath, your chest will bulge, and then slowly exhale.
Some stray thoughts were also spit out.
Red Iron Dragon nodded gently and said in a low voice, "I understand, but - I can't help but think about the worst outcome. This is my habit and I can't change it."
"Don't worry."
Titania flew to his ear and patted his scales like a child.
"If the sky falls, higher gods will hold it up, so it's not your turn to worry.
"Besides, although we have divided these beings into separate camps of Disorderly Ones, it does not mean that they can unite as one."
"On the contrary, they each have their own opinions, ideas, and determinations."
"Most of these Disorderly Ones will regard each other as obstacles and will attack and interfere with each other. Therefore, in our Greater Deity eyes, the Disorderly Ones are not that scary and are still within control."
Garos tapped his chin. "So that's it."
"That's because I'm worrying too much."
Even so, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Bahamut's words are too sure.
Moreover, through the conversation with Titania, he probably understood it.
Disorder does not represent all distortions, and the changes are actually not that big.
It mainly breeds some crazy and paranoid ideas based on the original nature.
This means that Bahamut is still the same Dragon God who doesn't know how to deceive or lie, and does whatever he says.
Since he said that there is a way to cut off Ascension Stairway and Immortal Path, there is a high probability that this method is real.
Garos thought about it and expressed his worries to Titania.
"Other Disorderly Ones, I don't know."
"They may just be delusional and lack the ability to realize it, but Bahamut----when he told me about his grand cause, he was very sure that he could realize it, and it was not like bluffing."
"Think about it for a moment."
Red Iron Dragon looked thoughtful as he muttered, "If it were you, do you think there is any way to do it?"
After hearing his words, Titania put his fingers on his chin, tilted his head slightly, and thought for a while.
"If it were me----I would try to search for the whereabouts of Book of Fate."
She said so.
Book of Fate?
A brand new term.
Garos searched for his own Dragon Inheritance, but there was no record in it.
"Book of Fate? What is this? The artifact of the goddess of destiny?"
he asked.
Goddess of Destiny, Ishtus.
Divine Authority, the god in charge of fate, destiny, time, prophecy, cycle, etc., is a very mysterious and powerful Greater Deity.
Her existence is recorded in Dragon Inheritance, but there is not much more specific information.
When it comes to fate, this goddess cannot be avoided, so Garos naturally associates it with it and feels that it is related to the goddess of fate.
But he thought wrong.
Titania shook his head slightly and said, "Ishtus weaves the thread of destiny, and all living things and gods Immortal Realm are included in it."
"However, Ishtus cannot interfere with the fate of Overlord gods."
"Book of Fate---- is left by a being above the gods. Divine Domain and Divine Authority invisibly record the gods. It maintains the balance of good and evil in Multiverse and can write the fate of all things in the world, including the gods Immortal Realm."
Book of Fate, Above the Gods..
Garos's pupils contracted, and the muscles on the dragon's face tightened subconsciously.
"Above the gods? Is there such a existence? Greater Deity and Eternal Realm life----isn't it the end yet?"
He couldn't help but ask.
In Garos's understanding, Greater Deity, and Eternal Realm life, are the existences that stand at the top of the pyramid of living beings. His pursuit and goal after the Immortal Realm is to stand at this level.
"You haven't reached this level, so naturally you still don't know----"
Titania thought for a while and said, "It doesn't hurt to tell you in advance. This is not a very secret matter."
She raised her head and looked at the vast scenery outside the courtyard, her eyes becoming distant.
As she looked, the scenery at the edge of the courtyard began to change.
Scenery such as the waterfall garden faded away, and the vast void emerged. Nothing existed, not even light and darkness, and there was nothing that could be perceived.
"Above all gods, Overgod, Multiverse, the God of creation, the father of all gods, the great----Ao."
"In a distant era that cannot be traced back, Ao was born in endless nothingness----"
Titania narrates in a chant-like tone.
Garos listened carefully, and also raised his head to look outside the courtyard, looking into the boundless nothingness.
At the same time, as Titania narrated, a magnificent creation epic unfolded in front of Red Iron Dragon.
Ao was born in nothingness, breathing out the primordial chaos.
Chaos surged and condensed, Primordial Universe took shape from nothingness, and the basic prototypes of Material World, Outer Planes and thousands of crystal walls were spread out.
The one who woke up with Primordial Universe was Primordial Wild God.
They are rooted in the origin of creation and are the embodiment of the world itself.
Aou looked at his creation and saw that Primordial Universe was violent and disorderly, and everything was ups and downs.
So, He created Book of Fate.
Multiverse The fate of all planes, creatures, and the trajectory of the world's rise and decline are all written in it.
From then on, Aou no longer interfered with the changes in the world.
He quietly retreated into the depths of nothingness, never appeared again, and disappeared without a trace.
Time flows slowly and life sprouts.
Creatures offered awe and prayers, faith grew from the hearts of mortals, faith gathered into the spark of God, and the first generations of gods were born one after another.
The new gods are born from the belief of the living beings, eager to create order and stabilize the world.
Primordial Wild God was born from the chaos of the universe and is unwilling to change.
The two sides have conflicting ideas.
As time passes, differences accumulate.
Finally, the flames of war ignited and swept across the entire Primordial Universe.
Dawn War, it broke out.
During the war, countless worlds were reduced to scorched earth.
The new gods are retreating one after another, and it is difficult to become the enemy of the ancient Wild Gods.
However, Wild God understood the true meaning of development and realized that the advancement of the times was unavoidable. Only by conforming to the trend of the times can we remain forever. Then he resolutely held up Divine Fire, changed his face, stood among the gods, and even became the leader of the gods, leading the first generation gods to fight against Primordial Wild God.
A long fight.
Thousands of years later, Primordial Wild God was either killed, sealed, or exiled to the edge of Multiverse.
Victory, take over thousands of worlds, divide Divine Domain, establish Pantheon, and control the rise and fall of all things----
Having said this, Titania stopped.
Garos remained silent, still immersed in the distant era described by Titania.
There are some contents in it that are recorded in the inheritance.
But there were also many things that he heard for the first time.
Regarding the mythological epic of creation, Garos naturally knows something about it, but there are too many versions circulating in the world, and it is impossible to distinguish the true from the false. And what Titania said is that the authenticity is undoubtedly the highest.
After half a ring.
Red Iron Dragon came back to his senses and looked at Titania.
"So----the iron law that all gods and Immortal Realm will be bound and cannot be destroyed wantonly by Prime Material Plane was also left by this God of Creation?"
"Yes."
Titania nodded and said, "Even Greater Deity and Eternal Realm lives cannot break through this Iron Laws of Rules, which is one of the cornerstones of Multiverse."
Hearing this, Garos had a question in his heart.
Facing such a level of Iron Laws of Rules, my own Adaptation Authority should also lie down and be unable to compete at all.
But he could clearly feel that his Adaptation Authority was indeed adapting to this iron law.
It's slow, but it's really happening.
Why?
Is my Divine Power powerful enough to withstand the rules set by God?
Garos feels that there may be some problems in this.
"Anyway, this is a good thing for me."
After thinking for a few seconds, he shook his head slightly and thought to himself.
Why is this happening? If you can't figure it out, then forget about it for now. As long as you live long enough, you will figure it out sooner or later.
Garos put this question behind him, looked at Titania, and said, "You mean, if we can get Book of Fate, those Disorderly Ones's delusions will be possible to come true?"
"That's the theory."
Titania shrugged, spread his hands, and said, "However, it is not certain whether Book of Fate actually exists."
"Even for the higher gods, it is a legend. It only exists in the mythical chapters of the creation of the world. No one has seen it with their own eyes, let alone looking for it."
"You want to subvert Multiverse through the history books? It's not realistic."
At this point, she changed the topic and her eyes became sharper and more serious.
"However, if Book of Fate really exists, and if anyone can discover its whereabouts, then Bahamut must be among them. 59
0
Garos's eyes narrowed. "Why Bahamut?"
Titania said sternly, "According to some ancient information that cannot be verified, but is extremely credible, although Ao left, he left behind several incarnations of his faces and gave them complete free will and different natures."
"In Primordial Era, among the leaders of the gods who led the new gods to turn defeat into victory, there is such a person."
Garos's thoughts were like lightning, and he blurted out. "Is it the deceased Dragon Race main god, Nine-Faced Dragon God, Io?"
Titania nodded.
"Yes, you are right, it is Io, this all-encompassing World-Shaping Dragon."
She recalled, "In Primordial Era, Io single-handedly created many plane rules, and also controlled the fate of Divine Power, which may have some connection with Book of Fate."
"And Bahamut---- was born from the remains of Io. It can be said to be the continuation of his life and a part of him."
Nine-Faced Dragon God, Io.
He died at the end of Dawn War, and died together with a powerful man from the Primordial Wild God camp, and fell on the eve of dawn.
Tiamat and Bahamut.
These two were born from the remains of Nine-Faced Dragon God, they are natural Eternal Realm lives, and therefore have an extraordinary status in Dragon Pantheon and the entire Dragon Race.
Red Iron Dragon groaned. "In this case, if Book of Fate really exists and has a certain connection with Bahamut, then----"
The words were not finished, but the meaning was already self-evident.
Titania smiled slightly and reached out to flick his dragon horn.
"How can it be that simple?"
"Which of the gods in the sky doesn't want to get Book of Fate? But without exception, even its existence cannot be confirmed. Don't worry, there will be no problem with the future of our Multiverse."
Titania said softly.
Garos Silence.
The optimism of Fae seems to have also infected Titania.
She has always been positive and optimistic about the future, believing that those crazy ideas will eventually fail.
But Garos is not so optimistic.
As long as there is a slight possibility, he is accustomed to thinking the worst about things.
However, he did not continue the topic.
Red Iron Dragon changed the topic, looked at the changing scene outside the courtyard, and said, "I didn't expect that above the higher gods and Eternal Realm's lives, there is still Overgod. This road leading to the highest and most powerful is really layered with mountains and mountains, and the end can't be seen at a glance."
On the opposite side, Titania's little face also showed an expression of seeing through the world of mortals.
She put her hands behind her back and said with emotion, "Sometimes I think about it, this Divinity level, Immortal Realm level - how high does it have to be?"
Garos also nodded slightly and sighed in agreement, "Yes, how high do you have to be to be considered high enough?"
Upper plane.
Heaven Mountain.
This is the plane closest to perfect order and goodness in the entire Multiverse.
The seven holy mountains extend upward infinitely, and the air is filled with carols and bells. Celestial Realm creatures shuttle between the clouds with white wings, singing the praises of order and kindness. The higher you go up, the stronger the sacred atmosphere becomes.
Divine Kingdom, Platinum Heavenly Palace of Bahamut.
It's in Heaven Mountain.
Unlike Divine Kingdom of other gods, the position of the Platinum Heavenly Palace is not fixed.
Under the will of Bahamut, it wanders between the layers of Heaven Mountain, all year round.
At this time, among the Platinum Heavenly Palace.
A majestic giant dragon is located on the top of a holy mountain. Every dragon scale on its body is white gold.
It is Platinum Dragon God, Bahamut.
His eyes passed through the Divine Kingdom, and followed the wandering of the Platinum Heavenly Palace, scanning the corners of the Heaven Mountain plane inch by inch.
In the field of vision, the river meanders through the forest, with milky white water flowing in the golden river bed.
Everything is perfect.
But these are not what Bahamut wants to see.
"Book of Fate----Where are you hiding?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered silently in his heart.
Just as Titania thinks, Bahamut really wants to achieve his ultimate goal by getting Book of Fate.
Want to deal with all other powerful beings at the same time.
This is the only way it can be achieved.
Moreover, Bahamut is convinced that Book of Fate is in Heaven Mountain, in this plane of perfect order and goodness.
At present, he has searched the first two floors of Heaven Mountain, but has not found any traces of Book of Fate.
But Bahamut is not in a hurry.
He has unlimited life and unlimited time to achieve his ultimate goal.
As long as Book of Fate is in Heaven Mountain, no matter which floor or corner he is hiding in, he will definitely find it even if he has to dig through every stone on the seven-story holy mountain.
Time flows quietly.
Joyful Court continues to build momentum for the position of War God; Destroyer Talos is trapped in the contradiction of thoughts; Tiamat weaves her conspiracy; Platinum Heavenly Palace of Bahamut comes to the third floor of Heaven Mountain----
It is full of vitality and everything is flourishing.
At the same time, there is a surging undercurrent.
On a level unknown to ordinary things, the gods are not idle, and are all working hard towards their respective goals and grand plans.
In this way, time came to 1646 in the Imperial Calendar.
Red Iron Dragon, as always, is exercising in the starry sky.
After his conversation with Titania, he deeply felt the vastness of Multiverse and the turbulent waves hidden under the surface of peace. Therefore, he cut off most of his limited leisure time.
Red Iron Dragon focuses more on its own strength in order to be prepared to face the huge waves that may arise at any time.
Not long after, after finishing a set of exercises.
Red Iron Dragon Returned to Bernardo and came to a valley with beautiful scenery.
There are green cliffs on both sides of the valley. The waterfall pours down, making a rumbling sound, and forms a deep pool with water vapor around it.
Such an environment is conducive to Garos feeling calm.
He lay on the grass by the lake, squatting down, and the dragon's body coiled up into a hill.
Then, the giant dragon glanced at his wrist.
When he felt uneasy before, he wanted to strengthen himself faster by exploring other timelines.
But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that even if he went to other timelines, he might not be able to get what he wanted. The risks were too high and there were too many uncertainties, so he had not yet made up his mind, so he simply shelved the idea.
Red Iron Dragon looked away.
The valley was very quiet, with only the sounds of wind and waterfalls. His breathing became even and he closed his eyes to take a nap.
But it didn't take long.
Suddenly, Red Iron Dragon opened his eyes, and a golden thread flashed deep in his pupils.
He raised his right paw again.
I saw that the Ring of Time on my wrist emerged and spun rapidly, causing invisible ripples and forming circles of invisible ripples in the valley.
This is?
Red Iron Dragon narrowed his eyes slightly and looked intently.
I saw, among the ripples, a huge head covered with fine golden scales, stretched out inch by inch, looked at Red Iron Dragon, opened his mouth and said, "Jia Luo——"
The words have not yet fallen.
"Where did the evil spirit come from, disguised as Dragonkin?"
Garos scolded sharply and interrupted him.
Snap!
At the same time, he slapped Gold Dragon firmly on the head with his back claw, knocking him crookedly.
The force was so strong that Gold Dragon's head was thrown to the side like a rattle.
Don't wait for Gold Dragon to come to his senses.
More claws fell down, and they were slapped on the head and face.
After coming back to his senses, Gold Dragon, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, shouted hurriedly.
"Stop fighting, stop fighting!"
"It's me, Odhos!"
It's not Odhos, I won't fight yet----
After hesitating for a moment, Red Iron Dragon's claw finally hung in the air, stopped, and retracted it.
There was a trace of regret in his eyes.
"Oh, it turned out to be you. I didn't mean it just now. I thought someone was going to attack me."
"I'm very happy to see you again after a long absence."
On the opposite side, Odhos had stars in his eyes, a bruised nose and a swollen face.
He stared at Red Iron Dragon, looked at him suspiciously, rubbed his swollen dragon face with his paws, and bared his teeth.
"You really didn't mean it? You didn't take a picture of that moment just now. It seems - it's a pity?"
Garos said without changing his expression, "Really? You feel wrong."
What about lying to fools?
This guy must be taking revenge on himself on purpose.
How stingy.
Gold Dragon thought in his heart.
However, he also knew what he had done, and it was indeed a bit wrong.
One of the great advantages of Odhos is that he is thick-skinned.
He naturally skipped the topic and acted as if nothing had happened.
Gold Dragon shook his head and emerged from the invisible ripples. His huge body fell into the valley and stopped opposite Garos.
Cough cough cough...
Gold Dragon coughed twice, and on his face, time seemed to flow backwards. All injuries recovered one by one, and he changed into a leisurely and mysterious expression.
He looked directly at Red Iron Dragon and said, "Garos, the brave and fearless Red Iron Dragon, I have returned from the long river of time, carrying with me the endless past and the unfinished future, to give you a great gift."
"Do you want power?"
