Chapter 1047 A Fragment Of The Past



Chapter 1047 A Fragment Of The Past

"What\'s this?!" Luck panicked.

"A recording of some sort…" Zack said. "I remember seeing something similar back in the Fishman King\'s Dungeon. Just don\'t worry, whatever you\'ll see here is not real."

"Not… real?" Luck was still confused.

The projection kept expanding, this wasn\'t just a window, it expanded and became the entire surroundings, Alice called these "advanced holographic technology".

FLAAASH!

The entire ruins lighted up, as the projection showed how they looked thousands of years ago, when they were new and clean.

There were no sunstone crystals creeping around, and then entire interior of the ruins were clean and bright.

Two really tall people walked through the corridor, as we moved away to see them more in detail.

Both of them seemed slightly human in appearance but had clearly non-human features.

One of them was their blazing hair, the other was their bright red skin, as red as blood.

Sharp ears, and larger eyes…

And above all, they exuded bright auras with their very steps.

These gods… I recognize them.

"How is the experiment going, Fiere?"

The tallest of the two asked, resembling a muscular man wearing clothes made of golden metal, shining with brightness.

"Aeolus, I\'ve told you plenty of times that they are not doing well. We\'ve already lost a hundred of them, it seems that our project is not going anywhere…" Sighed the woman at his side.

She was beautiful and with a long hair made of flames, her blazing crimson eyes seemed to pierce one\'s soul.

She possessed amazing blazing beauty, hiding behind her cold demeanor.

"Fiere… Aeolus?" My father reacted with almost the same surprised face I did. "I feared it would be them but… Hah, I guess as nice as they were, they\'re Gods at the end."

"I recognized them too…" I nodded. "They\'re the Gods that gave me some additional blessings. They gave some to you too, dad?"

"Yes…" He nodded. "This is… To think they would talk so coldly. They spoke with so much warmth and understanding back then. I thought they had empathy for us, but…"

"They\'re just the same as those mermaid bitches…" Aquarina gritted her teeth. "Acting all nice, only to be wretched monsters that tried to take over my body…"

"Enough, we can talk about this later. The projection continues." My mother stopped our words, as we followed the two Gods walking forwards.

The two gods continued walking with their mercilessly eyes, glaring at several rooms, where several versions of the same experiment were stored.

There was one with multiple people asking for help, their bodies were stuck together with Sunstones, and there were several of them already dead and rotting.

"Please, spare me from this agony, oh Gods!"

"Kill us… please kill us…"

"No… I don\'t want this… I don\'t want this!"

The second experiment showed a large mass of Sunstone with several people already dead inside of them, they looked fresh, with agonizing faces.

"…"

The third had some of them alive, they were groaning like zombies, vomiting blood and asking for help in between their groans.

"M-Mother… where are… you?"

"Uuurrgghh…"

"GRAAAGGH!"

The Gods coldly glanced at each experiment with really bothered eyes.

"Will you ever dispose of the failed experiments?" Sighed Fiera. "You seem to enjoy seeing them, but I find it a bit disgusting. Just incinerate them."

"I can\'t, the higher ups said we need to keep them around so we can then show them as evidence of each attempt." Aeolus answered. "The Sunstone is a precious material; we can\'t waste it."

"Well, it does indeed serve as good provisional food now and then." The God smiled. "Now, into the big ones. We\'ve found out that aside from the Sunstone growth, they can unify into lifeforms of some sort."

"What? Lifeforms?" Asked the woman.

Aeolus showed her one of the experiments, resembling the Sunstone Tree we meet yesterday, its branches going all the way up into the ceiling.

"This is a Sunstone Tree, it produces special fruit sometimes, it can strengthen the soul a bit." Aeolus smiled, as if he were showing his creations with pride.

"A Soul Fruit?" Wondered Fiere. "Interesting…"

Then they moved to another place, where there was a giant mass of Sunstones with many arms and legs, opening insect-

like jaws and eating people they left there to feed it…

"GRYYARRGH!"

Crunch, crunch, crunch…

"This is an Insectoid Chimera, I would call them that, but I have no idea what they are. Some sort of thing between an Undead and a Divine Beast." Said Aeolus. "Imperfect and much weaker than them, but it might have its own uses, if we perfect their creation. We could create as many as we wanted without the energy and resources that Divine Beasts require for their creation."

"Interesting…" Fiere nodded, without even glancing at a little boy screaming at the window, hitting it with his hands while bleeding, as the creature snatched him away and ate him in front of her.

"Hahh… It\'s really boring around here." She sighed.

Lastly, they walked to the last project they were creation, it had the shape of a gigantic sphere, and there were many metallic tubes connected to it, constantly imbuing Divine Power into its interior.

"What\'s this thing?" The goddess asked while raising an eyebrow.

"I call it Apollo." Said Aeolus. "It is a failed experiment too, but I gave myself the luxury of mixing a bunch of them until an enormous, stable sphere was formed… It can harness the Divine Power and then fire it at great distances. It can connect to a Divinity and also become refined by our Will."

"Strange, you made a weapon out of them?" She asked.

"I mean, wasn\'t that the point of this entire project?" Laughed Aeolus. "The more of these failures I feed to it, the bigger and stronger it becomes… Maybe if I could refine such a thing, I could become as strong as the Chief Gods…"

"Not even in your dreams." His companion only laughed at his dreams.
