Night World Players

Chapter 226 Relic "Mechanical Spark"

"After completing this level of Historical Echoes..."

"Have I finally reached the threshold of legend?"

Looking at the blue prompt that was constantly flashing in his mind, Last couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

The peak of the sixth level, this is the level he is standing on right now on the long steps of the "High Tower".

If one were to sink one's consciousness into the tower called "The Fool's Library," one would be able to see behind the card called "High Tower Rast"—

The long staircase that went up step by step and led to the void had six steps illuminated by light.

All that remained were the last three steps, located higher up, hidden in nothingness and darkness.

In a sense, at this moment, Rast has already reached the end of the realm that humans can step into.

One more step forward and you will become a legend.

And whether it is a legend or an angel, the essence of life has undergone a transformation, evolving from human to non-human... the true realm of mythology.

Of course, achieving legend and setting foot in the divine realm... seems to be only one step away, but it is actually a chasm in the true sense of the word.

Throughout history, countless brilliant and extraordinary people have been blocked at this legendary pass, unable to cross this final step in their entire lives.

Since the end of the first mythological era, even in the golden age when civilization was the most prosperous in the following era, there has never been an era in which the number of legendary strongmen in the world exceeded two palms.

This was the case in the Sixth Age, and it is also the case in today’s world.

"Become... a legend?"

Luster sighed softly.

Today, he is no longer the newbie in the extraordinary world... Noah, Cecil, Gray, these people are all legendary strong people he has personally come into contact with.

The "Fool's Library" also preserves the experiences and information of previous generations of shore guardians who have broken through the legends.

However, these materials can only serve as a reference for Last and cannot directly point out the way for him.

As Dean Yin once said... different sequences of stairs have different ways to reach higher places.

Leader Cecil used his mental power to construct a model of a pseudo-star, an imaginary sun, in his mind to create the legend of the "Sun" sequence.

During her long period of training and exploration, Grey further perceived the flow of fate and deduced a broader future branch, thus creating the legendary "Fate" sequence.

As for Dean Silver, even today, Rast is still unclear about the specific rank and combat capability of this ferret... but it seems that Dean Silver's hundreds of years of continuous contact with humans and the process of feeling the radiance of souls should also be the way Dean Silver's "Moon" sequence is practiced.

Although the ways of breaking through the legend are different, there is no doubt that they have all walked out a legendary path that is unique and cannot be replicated based on their own sequences.

So what about yourself?

Luster stared at the slowly rotating "Tower" card in the "Fool's Library," which featured a portrait of himself wearing a jet-black windbreaker.

On the back of the card, there is a picture of a Tower of Babel standing on top of a mountain, towering into the clouds.

A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, destroying the Tower of Babel. The entire tower, made of bricks and stone, was ablaze with flames.

In the raging flames that destroyed everything, countless people fell from the tower and plummeted to the ground.

Of all twenty-two Major Arcana cards, only the Tower card has a negative meaning whether interpreted upright or reversed. It symbolizes disaster, misfortune, unexpected loss of control and collapse, and destruction and ruin stemming from the foundation.

Walking up this long staircase of the "Tower" sequence that no one has ever set foot on before, I am alone...

What exactly is that legendary road that belongs to you?

Such thoughts are only fleeting.

Soon, Rast regained his composure.

Whether it was to reunite with Xiao Ai, or to find Gray in the deepest part of the starry sea from that transaction with fate—

Or perhaps it is to realize the ideal of being a "shore guard" in one's heart.

Whether it is a legend or an angel, they are obstacles that Rast must overcome. He cannot and is unwilling to bypass them.

In fact, in Rast's heart, he already had a general direction...

An extremely crazy idea.

It is also the path for him to break through to the seventh level and become the first "Tower" sequence legend in history.

However, ideas are just ideas after all... We still need to take action to turn the ideas in our hearts into reality.

With this thought in mind, Last once again shifted his attention to the prompt information of the Night World.

You have obtained the Sixth Epoch Civilization Relic: "Mechanical Spark Source"

【Mechanical Fire Source】

Category: Holy Relic

[Relic Binding Object: Rast]

[Origin of the Holy Relic: Late Sixth Era, Western Continent Human Republic Federation]

[Introduction: This is the product of the Human Federation, which was born at the end of the Sixth Era. It is a product of condensing many of the most cutting-edge scientific technologies such as "simulated artificial intelligence", "virtual reality projection", "mechanization", "secondary dimension folding technology" and "controlled nuclear fusion miniaturization".]

It is this high-tech civilization, which, although short-lived, has written a significant chapter in the long river of history. It is the supreme crystallization of science and technology and the brilliant echo of a glorious civilization.

It is also "humanity," a gift given to the hero who once rewrote the course of human history.

[Relic Function: A mechanical spark containing all the cutting-edge technology of the Sixth Epoch Civilization. Its internal structure can be freely adjusted to the host's will, and it can be used as the core to construct a unique intelligent mechanical creation for the host.]

In Rast's hand, a slowly flowing metal block the same size as a Rubik's Cube, as if composed of countless flowing metal particles, quietly materialized and floated silently.

This is the only reward that Last obtained after completing the night world this time, besides the sequence experience.

It was not the "heraldic attire" that Rast was used to, but a holy relic called the "Mechanical Spark Source".

It didn't look very big and looked quite inconspicuous in Rast's hands.

But Last knew clearly that within that seemingly inconspicuous, Rubik's Cube-like liquid metal shell, there lay hidden a power capable of destroying an entire city.
