After a long confrontation and silence, all Gao Wen's feelings finally turned into a sigh.

"I want to say that you can actually have a better way, but the trajectory of history never cares about any 'better way'," he nodded slightly, looking at the phantom in front of him. "Facts have also proved that your original decision has now brought about a relatively more promising situation. Although there may be some variables in the middle, I have now successfully reintegrated the loose Gondor remnants, and in this process, I have found a way to fight against the divine disasters and demon tides. We are preparing to face the final challenge. Mortals are not sure to win, but this time we have prepared more than every season of civilization in the past."

"This is the best situation we have ever imagined," Gowan Cecil, who was sitting opposite him, laughed. "Charlie should be relieved to know this."

Gao Wen was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Charlie also knows about this?"

"How could I not know? He is the king, and I guard the frontier for him. If there is no king's acquiescence and support, how could a guardian duke in the south have the best chance to suddenly lead a boat to the sea, and then drift on the sea for half a year without any news?" Gauven Cecil laughed, "And if I guess correctly, after I 'dead', a large number of legends and stories related to me should be left in this world. The true and false are confused. Countless poems and contradictory historical materials will cover my life in the mist, and my journey will completely disappear from history... All this is to make a mysterious ancient hero with reasonable resurrection from the dead after many years.

"So, who else can arrange this thing except the king in such a vast range and in such a long period of time?"

Gao Wen stared at his eyes and didn't speak for several seconds. After years of deciphering and exploring history, he thought that he had at least understood most of the ins and outs of Gowen Cecil's trip to the sea. There should be no other missing besides the blank part of the memory, but he did not expect that there were so many secrets behind this matter, and the memories involved in these secrets were obviously also Gowen Cecil took the initiative to erase it from his mind before his death...

Two memories, one from Gowen Cecil, and one from the wandering souls in satellites, each with its own shortcomings and they make up for each other. Some were voluntarily deleted by the parties involved, and some were lingering in the data array for centuries due to system failures. Now these lost fragments have finally slowly risen from the long river of time. A complete picture was pieced together in front of Gowen. He pressed his fingers against his forehead to calm his mind as soon as possible. It took him a long time to look up at the phantom in front of him: "Okay, Charlie knows this, I should have thought of this... What kind of 'surprise' have you left for me?"

生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生

"There is a letter," Gowan Cecil's mouth seemed to curl up, "Charlie left it to you now."

"A letter?" Gao Wen's eyes widened in an instant. The unexpected situation that happened today was really happening one after another, so that his calm attitude that had been tempered for many years was now a little unrestrained. "What Charlie left to me?"

"Is it a surprise? Since he knows the whole thing, he certainly knows your existence. Although you can't meet, he also wants to communicate with you and leave it to you today. Leaving a letter to me is the best way we can think of at that time," Gowen Cecil said calmly, then he raised his hand. Gowen didn't see any action of taking things, and the letter appeared in his hand out of thin air. "I put it in the depths of my soul. Originally, it should have come to the earth directly as part of my memory, but the accident delayed this matter to this day, but now I finally have the opportunity to hand it to you."

Gao Wen looked at the letter, hesitated for a moment before reaching out to hold it in his hand. Before unfolding the letter, he looked at the figure in front of him who looked exactly like his appearance, and the latter just smiled and nodded slightly to him.

Gao Wen took a light breath and calmed his heartbeat slowly. Then he unfolded the letter that he had passed down to this day, and lines of text written several centuries ago came into his eyes.

"Friends, I hope this letter did not surprise you too much. In our limited intelligence, we really can't think of a better way to communicate with an existence that may come to this world decades or even hundreds of years after our death. Human life is too short and the soul is fragile and difficult to retain. I am unwilling to hand over the mind to the vague blessings of the undead witchcraft or the gods. After thinking about it, I can only write a letter to you.

“You might think that this kind of ‘communication’ is meaningless because when you receive this letter, I may have become part of the soil, but for us creatures who live in short lives and are attached to the world, there are many things that seem meaningless to do, because even after death, we have many things that we can’t let go.

"If you can read this letter, you must have fulfilled your agreement as Gao Wenqing said. You must have come to the earth and set out to revitalize this fragmented world, right?

"Does the Holy Spirit Plain produce enough food now? The northwest border will probably not freeze to death now, right? Anthony has always wanted to build a strong city in the eastern region. Has that city been built?

"I really want to see what the world of your era has become. I don't have enough imagination and can't outline the scenery of the future, but I think that would at least be a better era than now, right?

"Our era... is not very good... Don't get me wrong. I still love this land, love everyone on this land and everything we have built together, but even so, we still live in a difficult world, with food always not enough to eat, and the weather in the north is colder than we knew when we set off. The warm place is too close to the wasteland, and the safe place is frozen thousands of miles away. We have been reclaimed on this strange and cold land for many years, but this land still regards us as strangers...

"But in your era, this should be a memory of the past, right?

"Friends, I don't know if you will regard me as a friend, but I want to call you that. Gao Wenqing said that you will inherit his memory, his body and name, and in the years when he came to the earth, you will be another him. Although this may be just a temporary body for existence like you, he told me that you are trustworthy and worthy of entrustment of many things, and I have always trusted him, so now I trust you too.

"I believe that if you are willing to abide by this agreement that spans time, and even a group that may be fleeting in your eyes will pay attention to it, then you will definitely achieve the things that Gao Wenqing and I have imagined.

"So I entrust all this to you, a mess, a bad world, a less promising race, a broken civilization, no matter how you call these, but be sure to take care of them, because no matter how bad it is, this is everything we have all the way to this day, and it is our most precious treasure.

"A friend you have never met, C."

The letter was not long. It was not a letter that conveyed amazing secrets, nor was it a suicide note that explained the affairs of the country. It was really an ordinary letter to convey a greeting that was destined to be unresponsive. It was like deliberately leaving a trace in Gaowen's memory. Charlie left such a page of text, and after Gaowen finished reading the letter, the text began to gradually dissipate in the darkness.

After all, they are not real matter, but just projections reflected by memory.

Gao Wen raised his head and saw that the figure sitting in front of him suddenly began to fade and dissipate.

After all, this is just a wisp of consciousness that Ms. Ye has forcibly retained for centuries and cannot even talk about fragments of the soul.

"It seems like it's time to say goodbye," Gowan Cecil's phantom stood up with a hint of relaxation on his face. "I stayed here to pass on this letter, and now I've finally finished the last thing."

Gao Wen also stood up, and he stared at the figure in front of him silently. After a moment, he finally broke the silence in a deep voice: "Do you know, in fact, the 'Ansu Kingdom' you entrusted to me had turned into history a few years ago. The kingdom was terminally ill, so I could only send it to my last journey with my own hands."

Gowan Cecil looked at Gowan's eyes quietly, then suddenly laughed: "I know, that 'lady' has told me, but do you know, in fact, Charlie and I had guessed that there might be such a possibility centuries ago."

Gao Wen frowned: "You guessed it?"

"Yes, guessed it," Gauvin Cecil nodded slightly, "The dynasty has no eternity. The kingdom that a group of fugitives has hastily pieced together is hard to say how rich the accumulation is. We do not have the 'valve' that can help the royal family maintain absolute authority like the Deep Blue Well, nor do we have the strict system and detailed historical materials that have been passed down for thousands of years in the Gondor Empire. The pioneers are heroes, but what can the descendants of heroes be? That is just descendants... We don't dare to think about what Ansu will be like after decades, hundreds of years, and dozens of generations.

"So we thought at that time, if it were you, if you had indeed seen the 'scenery' you had painted to me, then you would probably not be able to withstand such a mess and even if it wasn't a mess? The foundation laid by our generation was doomed to the upper limit of the development of the kingdom, and this upper limit... is far from enough to fight against the demon tide and gods.

"So if Ansu is gone, it's gone. Living people can't control their funerals. Charlie never thought about what the dynasty he built can last forever. Of course, I don't know if he would still think so in his later years. After all, he was still very young when I left.

"But then again, what do you think? After inheriting my memory, when you overthrew the terminally ill kingdom with your own hands? Are you hesitant in your heart? Now standing in front of me, do you have any doubts about your original decision?"

"I didn't hesitate at all," Gao Wen smiled, looking at the figure in front of him with a calm face. "After seeing you, I was even more open-minded and unquestionably the terminally ill Kingdom was not worthy of retention. And in my opinion, what you and Charlie had entrusted to me was not the 'Ansu Kingdom'. What you entrusted to me was the things on this land and their future. From this point of view, I think I did a good job."

Gowan Cecil's phantom opened his eyes wide in surprise. He stared at Gowan for a while before suddenly laughing, and said with a smile: "If Charlie is here, he will definitely applaud you because of your words, guess how he will evaluate your calmness?"

Gao Wen raised his eyebrows: "What will he evaluate?"

The tall phantom took a step forward and raised his hand and patted Gao Wen on the shoulder.

"Gao Wenqing is right."

Then the phantom dissipated.

...

Gao Wen blinked, and saw that he was in a giant city shrouded by a chaotic sky. The rows of houses were lined up and extended to the distance in his view. The strange-style spire pointed to the sky like a forest. A towering figure stood in the middle of the giant city. The figure was overlooking the earth, and a pair of amber eyes were staring at him in the depths of the hazy clouds and mist.

"It seems you've finished talking." Ms. Ye's voice fell from the sky, calm and gentle.

“How long have we talked?”

"A moment."

"I thought it had been a long time..."

Ms. Ye's voice stopped for a moment, and after a few seconds of silence, He spoke again: "What do you feel? Retrieve your memory again and see the remaining consciousness. Do you have anything to say?"

Gao Wen thought about it carefully, and as his expression gradually relaxed, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I feel relaxed as I successfully stepped through a step in my life and put down a burden."

"That's good. I was worried before that this information would cause trouble for you," Ms. Ye's voice smiled. "Now it seems that my judgment is correct."

"Your judgment?" Gao Wen raised his eyebrows, "How did you make a judgment?"

A voice fell from the sky: "You are a little more heartful."

Gao Wen: "…"

At this moment, Ms. Ye in his eyes seemed to overlap with a shadow assault goose that he was familiar with for a moment, but before he could think about anything more, the lazy and majestic voice came from the sky again: "Okay, now a private matter has been settled, we should go to the next step."

Gao Wen took a light breath when he heard this. The experience just now made him realize that this "Ancient God's Commitment" was much more outrageous than he had expected. The Ms. Ye in front of him had a big wave of herself. I don't know how many things were challenging the heart waiting for him. He calmed his expression and controlled his heartbeat, and then looked up at the eyes of the sky: "What's next? Is the message from the setter?"

"Oh, the thing we are going to talk about next is yours," Ms. Ye chuckled, "Believe me, the things about you are not simpler than the fate of the Setter or the world."

The other party's words made Gao Wen's expression become serious immediately. He frowned slightly: "What do you want to say?"

"In recent years, you have made many great achievements," Ms. Ye spoke slowly, "Revitalize the southern border, unify the country, lead an era, and even integrate the civilization on this planet. You have regained the wasteland and defeated the gods. Now you will lead the world to fight against the demon tide and complete the last test of civilization towards the sky...

"What an amazing achievement, and in the hearts of many people, these achievements are all gathered in you. So when you accomplish these great achievements, are there any moment, even in just one moment, that you realize that you have... like a god?"
