Chapter 1172: Accident and Consternation

The disobedient courtyard shrouded in the depths of endless darkness and chaos, as always, is still peaceful today - Amoen, the giant deer, lying motionlessly between the floating boulders and the fragmented ancient wreckage, bathing in a faint holy light all over. Milmina was not immersed in the neural network today, but slowly circled around without saying a word next to Amoen.

In this scene, it seemed as if a ghost as huge as a bell tower floated around next to the God of Nature.

When I was walking around for unknown amounts, Amoen finally couldn't help but break the silence: "Have you gone around enough yet?"

"I'm afraid that if I connect to the network, you will look back and report me to the administrator," Milmina finally stopped, and her eyes shrouded in mysterious clouds and glared at the God of Nature with a vicious look. "I finally discovered that you, who are usually honest and simple, are you really unpredictable to be bad - I'll help you so much, will you report me?"

"...Aren you very happy last time playing cards..." Amoen muttered helplessly, "Even Duvalter surrendered, you are unwilling to leave that space..."

Responding to him was a sharp gaze from Milmina and the quiet that had been disobeying the courtyard for a long time.

After a while, Amoen's voice finally rang out in a dim chaos: "These days... time passes so quickly."

Milmina looked at him quietly for a few seconds: "Isn't the time in the past fast? Thousands and tens of thousands of years flowing away in the blink of an eye. Before we can react, the dynasties of ordinary people changed generations... so fast that God was dazzled."

"This is different from that," Amoen said softly, "the time was like a set of repeated illusions to me. The whole world may have changed very quickly, but those have nothing to do with me. The thousands of years I have experienced are like the same day that is repeated, and that is... a very, very long day. Now, the time we have experienced is at least our own."

"Why do you suddenly start to sigh about this kind of thing?" Milmina was quiet for a moment, and finally sat down next to a huge rock near Amoen. "Isn't it so happy to be immersed in the neural network every day and think about nothing?"

"I just suddenly wondered... how long can we last like this?" Amoen's voice was very calm, so calm that it was impossible to hear his true emotions at the moment. Only the white light that had been shrouded by him for a long time seemed to be slightly restrained. "You used to run to the deepest part of the shadow world, and you should know the situation over there... The edge of the deep world should be not very stable recently, right?"

"I didn't expect that you were lying here for three thousand years is not a waste of time," Milmina looked at Amoen with some surprise, and then shook her head, "The deep world... The deep world is still the deep world, and it maintains a close and remote overlap with the deep sea. You know, I dare not really get close to its edge - it will be reconnected. But I can still sense the clear echoes produced by the mortal thoughts over there. Those echoes outline the boundaries of the deep world. Overall, the boundaries are quite stable."

"It's a little good news... You know, when the little demon tide arrived seven hundred years ago, someone took action to detonate the Deep Blue Well. Although this crazy action did prevent the demon tide from further flooding, it almost hit the mapping between the deep and upper realms. At that time, the edge was blurred so much that it almost dissipated... I really thought the end of the world was coming."

"Who said no? I was almost scared to death at that time. Boom exploded like this big deep blue well. I was just lying on the edge of thought and observing the magicians who were studying arcane purification experiments. I felt that the connection with the entire real world was interrupted. When I opened my eyes again, the whole Gondor was gone..."

Amoen listened quietly to Milmina's slightly exaggerated descriptions that were not like the "goddess" at all. After the other party finished speaking, he suddenly asked: "Tell the truth - it wasn't you who started the Deep Blue Well?"

"Why do you suspect it's me?" Milmina immediately glanced at Amoen like a fool, "A god like me who can hide from the prayers of mortals, do you think I will take the initiative to do something that is extremely difficult and may trap myself at any time? Especially when I was slowing down for a half-beat, I didn't even realize that something was wrong with the sun's movement..."

Amoen was not moved at all, but just quietly said his judgment: "The Deep Blue Well is the source of magic. Detonating it requires guiding extremely powerful primitive magic power, so you are the one who is most likely to take action. As for the reason for taking action... Even if you are unwilling to take responsibility, you are also a goddess born from the thoughts of mortals. Protecting mortals is your highest instinct, and it has nothing to do with your own wishes."

Milmina looked at Amoen's eyes that seemed to be cast in crystals. After two or three seconds of confrontation, she suddenly chuckled and shook her head: "... At this moment, I really hoped that I was the god you mentioned who took a brave step to protect mortal civilization - but it's a pity that the one who took action to detonate the Deep Blue Well more than 700 years ago was not me."

"Isn't you?" Amoen's voice was finally a little surprised, "Who could it be?"

"I don't know, but many gods who once protected the Gondor Empire are possible. You are the main god of the Elf system and have not paid attention to the human world for three thousand years, so you probably don't understand the Deep Blue Well, and your impression of it... is also somewhat inaccurate.

"That is indeed a powerful source of energy, but it should not be called the "source of magic". Deep in the surging magic veins of the Deep Blue Well, there is a huge "network" that runs through the entire planet and even tributaries in multiple realms. It is like a complex water channel network that includes both the above-ground rivers and the underground water channel. This complex "water channel network" not only has primitive magic power, but also the tides and shadow worlds of the elemental world, the echoes of the shadow world, and even the mortal thoughts can be connected to its deep tributaries - so, there are more than one "magic goddess" who can intervene in the Deep Blue Well.

"Elemental gods, holy light, blood gods, and even the rich three gods - even the straightforward God of War, as long as they had this idea at the time, they could attack the Deep Blue Well."

Listening to Milmina's story, Amoen couldn't help but feel silent. He did not doubt the magic god's judgment on the issue of the Deep Blue Well, but he was even more confused by the answer given by the other party. While thinking, he finally broke the silence: "No matter who took the action back then, he would never escape from the big explosion..."

"You're right," Milmina nodded, "Although I can't find the clue, a simple calculation can tell how big the big explosion was. It not only destroyed a human empire in the real world. The energy of the recoil should be enough to break the defense of the Kingdom of God and severely damage the god who took action at that time. Of course, this was something that happened seven hundred years ago. Now mortals have flourished again. Except for those of us who ran away or the unlucky guy who was the God of War, all the believers of gods are only a lot more than that in the past... The brave man who detonated the Deep Blue Well should have recovered now, right?"

Amoen didn't say anything for a moment, and then he whispered to himself: "...I respect him no matter who he is."

Milmina nodded. She seemed to want to say something else, but before she opened her mouth, she suddenly felt a new aura appearing in this chaotic and dim space. She looked in the direction where the aura came, and her face hidden under the mysterious mist seemed to show a smile: "It seems that a guest is visiting our courtyard."

Amoen also sensed the aura, but he still refuted Milmina's words at the first time: "This is my courtyard - you are determined to leave!"

"Don't care about this kind of problem. It seems like you are the master here," Milmina responded casually, and her eyes fell on the figure walking towards this side that was passing through the protective barrier. She spoke again after the other party approached, "Gao Wen, why do you have time to come here to see it today?"

The one who appeared in the disobedient courtyard was Gao Wen, who had just arrived here from the city. He did not bring any followers and came to the deepest part of the disobedient fortress alone. But behind him, in the Imperial Computing Center in Cecil, a large number of technicians have arrived at the post. The anti-divine barrier and non-directional thoughts are ready. Several security teams, the twelve Node Bachelors and Naretiel Duvalter are all paying attention to the situation in the disobedient courtyard.

After crossing a virtual isolation wall formed with holographic projection, Gao Wen came to this "god resting place" composed of countless fragmented floating stones and ancient ruins. He stopped in front of Milmina and Amoen, looked up at the huge lady in a black long skirt, her lower body condensed like clouds and mist, and her face was puzzled.

"I'll ask you some questions, Ms. Milmina."

"Consult some questions?" Milmina's tone rose slightly. At the same time, she noticed that the magic devices set up everywhere around her suddenly changed. Many things that were originally running at low power were obviously increasing their output. Some crystals that were originally stuck in the slot floated into the air, some dim runes became bright, and some blue and white sparks jumped between some metal brackets, and waves of buzzing sounds of equipment running came from all directions, and the sound went from low to loud.

The huge and complex protection system was activated, and the formation was extraordinary. Milmina's eyes hidden in the mist obviously had a light thunder, and her voice came from the sky: "It seems that your problem is extraordinary, Gao Wen."

"... Then can you ask different places?" Amoen's voice rang out immediately. He also noticed the protective devices that suddenly operated at high power, and suddenly felt something was wrong from it. "I just want to wait quietly for a while..."

"There are so many protective equipment, and you can't move it," Milmina glanced at Amoen lightly, "Why don't you move it yourself?"

"...Forget it, just pretend I didn't say it," Amoen sighed in his tone, "I'll try to pretend I didn't hear it."

"Don't be so nervous," Gao Wen couldn't help but smile, looking at the two retired gods in front of him who have been increasingly showing a clear "human erection" state recently. In his opinion, the conversation method of the other party's words that cannot tell the demeanor of the gods at all was the biggest good news. After all, the closer their personalities are to mortals, the more the chains belonging to gods are decreasing. "This is just a preventive measure. After all, I'm not sure whether the matter I want to consult will involve a bridge between humans and gods - maybe this will be just an ordinary chat, and no one will be hurt..."

"Do you believe what you said?" said Milmina. "What's going on with the dragon clan named Melita Pernia?"

"...This is all caused by lack of experience at the beginning," Gao Wen said subconsciously, and then reacted, "Wait, how could you know about her?"

"We found out when we were playing cards with Ms. Enya..." Amoen immediately spoke next to her.

Gao Wen: "…"

So what are these three retired gods doing when they are idle?! These gods burned the three most advanced sets of nerve connection equipment in the empire just to play cards together?!

The sudden impact fact almost made Gao Wen's thinking lose its consistency, and he almost forgot why he came today. Fortunately, he was stunned for a moment and reacted. He coughed twice to break the embarrassment, closed his thoughts, and focused his attention on Milmina again.

"Ms., I want to know something about the Violet Kingdom."

Milmina was stunned: "What kingdom?"

"The Kingdom of Violet."

"Violet Kingdom?" Milmina's voice was filled with doubts that seemed to be false. She seemed to react and then matched the name with her memory. She slowly said, "I remembered... There is indeed such a country in the mortal world. But suddenly you ask what they do?"

"This country's style of conduct is too mysterious, and we have recently discovered that their actions over the past six hundred years have many suspicious aspects. I am now worried that they have some... potential threat to the new alliance," Gao Wen said while considering the words. "Of course, I cannot make such a judgment on any country in the absence of evidence, so this is just a stage of doubt at present, so I will come to you to confirm the situation..."

"I understand what you mean, but why did you come and ask me?" Milmina was still a little puzzled.

This time it was Gao Wen's turn to be stunned. He looked up at the former god in front of him: "Of course this is because Violet is a wizard kingdom, and you are the goddess of magic..."

"But those wizards are not my followers." Milmina said casually.

The disobedient courtyard suddenly fell into silence, and both people and gods fell silent, and only one buzzing sound was left on the scene when magical devices were running.

"...You said that the mages of the Violet Kingdom do not believe in you, the magic goddess - and not one or two, they all believe in you?" After a long time, Gao Wen finally reacted from his shock. He looked at the god who had held the power of magic in the world in a daze, feeling extremely absurd and astonishment in his heart, "The entire Violet Kingdom does not have your believers?!"

"Yes," Milmina answered for granted, "There is no connection between Master Violet and me, and since the day I became aware, I have never made any connection with any creature on that land. Well, I know that it sounds quite strange..."
