Chapter 550 Alec
Chapter 550 Alec
After the final battle, with the deaths of Ironball God and other high-end combatants of Skynet, Skynet's rule over Gear Nation came to an end.
The terrifying soul-extracting device was destroyed at this moment, and the people of the entire country returned to normal, regaining their own emotions.
However, after that, the country fell into great chaos, various regimes began to rise in the country, and a group of ambitious people fought constantly in the country, trying to determine the true leader.
Nevertheless, these people finally had the opportunity to decide their own fate, at least they were not machines being manipulated by others.
Lin Tian was not interested in power struggles. When Tianwang Company was captured, his subordinates had already taken away some of Tianwang Company's valuable resources, so he had no need to fight for anything in Tianwang Company.
He was sitting in the animal-hide camp, reviewing the documents his men had collected and the spoils of the battle.
First, there are those important documents, among which the three most important are the three that the Iron Ball God had seen before.
He couldn't build Mechagodzilla, but he already had the Nose-Smelling Love. What Lin Tian was most concerned about now was the experimental document about the crack.
The Iron Ball God seemed to have some understanding of the crack. While Lin Tian and the group of demi-humans were completely clueless, he had already circled the crack and was conducting research and testing.
Although the Gear Kingdom as a whole is a closed-off country, the Skynet Company, or rather the information network of the Iron Ball God, does not seem to be so closed off.
The above records more than a dozen cracks, one-third of which are located within the territory of the Frosty Winter Land, while the rest are in other places.
In these areas, Skynet's approach is suppression.
That's right, suppression!
Through special means, they suppressed the spiritual energy in these areas, reducing the spirituality of these cracked regions.
The document did not explicitly state the purpose of these suppressed spiritual energies, but Lin Tian speculated that it was an order from the Iron Ball God.
It seems he was guarding against something, whether it was fearing that the crack would reappear and continue to devour the surroundings, or guarding against something else.
Lin Tian had no idea, mainly because there was too little information available at the moment. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the iron ball god's corpse beside him.
If he were still alive, I think I could get some information out of him...
However, just as Lin Tian was at his wit's end, the special notebook he always carried with him suddenly began to heat up. At the same time, a point of light flew out from the corpse of the Iron Ball God and merged with the notebook.
After the fusion, the notebook clattered back onto the table, and the camp returned to calm.
Lin Tian was a little confused, but after realizing that the change had ended, he picked up the notebook again.
Unexpectedly, this notebook, which had been gathering dust for so long, started to produce text again.
However, this time it is not told from the perspective of that person as before, but from the perspective of the Iron Ball God.
There is a lot of text here, which can be considered a short biography of a character. The protagonist of the story is the Iron Ball God before he became a god, a guy named Alec.
Alec, like Lin Tian, was also a transmigrator, but he arrived in this world much earlier than Lin Tian, back when the gods still existed.
At that time, the era was relatively backward. Although there were cities, there was no concept of a nation. The conflicts between people were not about national or personal grudges, but rather about clashes of beliefs.
The various religious groups often clashed due to their differing ideologies, but their deities would not intervene, because although gods and humans lived in the same world, they were not in the same realm.
Humans live in the world on the ground, which is the human realm, while gods live in the world in the sky, which is the celestial realm.
Gods can travel freely between the two realms, but humans cannot go to the heavens. The only way to contact gods is through the temples built by various religious orders.
The location where Alec found himself after transmigrating was the territory of the renowned God of Craftsmen, and the present-day Frozen Land was once part of it.
Like Lin Tian, Alec also possesses a special ability called Mechanical Affinity. However, when he first transmigrated, the craftsmen of this world were still obsessed with blacksmithing and had little foundation in mechanics or gears.
Nevertheless, Alec joined the Craftsmen's Church and became an excellent craftsman.
With his special abilities, Alec's strength improved rapidly. In just a few decades, he rose to a high position in the cult, and his strength was among the best in the church.
During this process, Alec's mechanical gear creations amazed many people and inspired many to admire him.
This led Alec to develop the idea of becoming a god and ascending to the heavens. Although the text does not provide a subsequent transitional description of this part, judging from the current situation, he should have succeeded.
Lin Tian thought that the legendary god of machinery and craftsmanship might very well be him.
After reading the whole article, it seems to be a story about a transmigrator who travels to another world, becomes the strongest in the world, and ascends to the heavens.
However, after reading it carefully, Lin Tian still discovered many details.
What caught his attention most was the cult that was born around the same time as Alec. Although its name was not recorded, it was clear from the fact that all the members of the cult had purple eyes and most of them were mentally unstable.
This sect is very likely one of Lin Tian's enemies, the cult to which Leo belongs.
Let's call it the Evil Eye Cult for now!
The Evil Eye Cult has appeared in the human world, and besides spreading their cult beliefs, they are doing something that is hard to understand.
That is to build an altar.
These altars were studied by people at the time, and when opened, they would reveal a crack, seemingly leading to another world.
People didn't know what was on the other side of the crack; they only knew that those who went there never returned.
After Lin Tian finished reading, he paid close attention to the altar and the crack.
As is widely known, the Evil Eye Cult has only recently become active in the world, and the rift appeared suddenly as well.
Is there really no connection between the two?
Based on what was described in the article, Lin Tian guessed that the sudden appearance of the crack was likely related to the Evil Eye Cult.
After all, they had previously learned that the rift would destroy the world, and the Evil Eye Cult members were all a bunch of lunatics...
However, these are all just Lin Tian's guesses. If he needs to further understand the truth about the rift, he may still need to find the Evil Eye Cult to learn more about the rift or about the past.
