Chapter 59: Gui's Appearance
Zagreus can feel that the world is getting worse day by day. Since the true world consciousness has gradually awakened, its plan to create a god has been put on the agenda.
Zagreus's guess must have been correct, because he could feel that the world was experiencing an abnormal population growth.
Since the world consciousness traced back the timeline, it has begun to exert influence on human beings all over the world.
Before this, although human beings were constantly developing, they were suppressed by the world and still maintained a certain delicate balance between them and nature.
However, now that world consciousness has unlocked some of the limitations on humans, the world has begun to experience a population explosion.
This phenomenon of rapid population growth certainly would not occur out of thin air, as the world is currently in a state of deficit.
Then these expenses fall on the earth, the ocean and other living things.
With the increasing frequency and expansion of human activities, natural resources are being continuously deprived, the ecosystem is gradually losing balance, and many species are gradually becoming extinct.
As the earth loses its origin, it has been tearing down Peter to repair Paul in order to save itself, so desertification is also expanding.
As for the lack of the ocean's original source, the consequence is that the water source is constantly polluted, the ocean's own purification ability is weakened, and marine species are constantly disappearing.
But Zagros also felt that the world consciousness was going crazy. It was constantly blocking human perception and still trying to cover up the truth.
However, as the god in charge of death, Zagreus naturally felt the death energy that was accumulating in the sky above the world.
However, the world consciousness now is almost dead, and it seems powerless in the face of these massive explosions of death energy. It can neither decompose them nor make them dissipate. It simply ignores them. What it wants now is a population explosion. Anyway, when it starts the doomsday, these death energies will be insignificant.
So the death energy gathered unscrupulously between heaven and earth. The most the world consciousness could do was to devote a little energy to disperse it when the death energy in a certain place was too thick and had a large-scale impact on the real world.
But this kind of dispelling is often only a stopgap measure and cannot fundamentally solve the problem. As time goes by, the dead air becomes more and more, and in Zagreus's eyes, the whole world is shrouded in a shadow.
If Zagros had not come to this world, perhaps these deathly auras would not have amounted to anything, but when he appeared in this world, he was not restrained and allowed his own laws to subtly change the world.
This is interesting. Zagros has the great authority of Hades. As long as he is still in this world, it means that this world has the concept of the underworld.
The dead air that was originally floating everywhere without any pattern is no longer scattered energy. On the contrary, as the dead air becomes more and more dense, it will continue to merge and gather to form groups of pure yin energy.
These Yin Qis can pass through invisible barriers and establish connections with the real world.
In particular, they will be attracted by the extremely strong obsession deep in the human heart. Once they merge with each other, they will undergo substantial changes and become a bloodthirsty existence, commonly known as "gui".
Of course, the wave of doomsday has not yet formed, and the whole world is still in an era of exhausted spiritual energy. The birth of ghosts is not easy and also requires energy support.
Of course, now with the intervention of Zagreus, these obsessions that remain in the world have also undergone slight changes. Those souls with strong obsessions can autonomously absorb the dead air in the world to prolong their existence. If an obsession is lucky enough to capture a group of yin energy, the obsession can turn into a fierce and weird one.
Zagros was not polite. The world was about to face a doomsday frenzy anyway, so it wouldn't be excessive for him to add some extra ingredients and have a strange revival ahead of time.
Moreover, the appearance of these ghosts depends on the existence of Zagreus. These ghosts can be regarded as his products of the underworld. In the end, he will take all these ghosts away, so the more ghosts there are in the world, the more origins he can collect.
In order to make the concept of evil come faster, Zagreus secretly tampered with the origin world used to start the doomsday. He used the mark buried in it to poke a small hole in the origin world. This small hole will continuously leak into the world. These origins will turn into spiritual energy and slowly change the world, allowing the world to experience a small wave of spiritual energy recovery ahead of time.
As for Zagros, he constantly activates the brand in the original world to slow down the perception of the world consciousness. He even uses his own authority as the god of wine to make the world consciousness fall into sleep through the brand. The world consciousness is now very weak and cannot resist the will of Zagros at all. As long as there is no major change in the world to stimulate it, the world consciousness will not wake up easily.
As the world consciousness passively fell into sleep, Zagreus also began to arrange his own territory. He could not hide in this world for long, and sooner or later he would be discovered by the world consciousness. It would be easy for him to be "invited" out from someone else's territory.
Therefore, he needs to create a hell of his own in this world, and he will take root in this world as the lord of hell. Even if the world consciousness discovers his existence in the future, it will not be able to expel him.
Language is powerful. As the masters of this world, humans are well aware of the fact that people’s words are to be feared and can melt metal.
As weird existence continues to spread in the human world, weirdness will gradually be accepted by human society. Whether it is awe or fear, weirdness will only become stronger, and the concept of weirdness will also be pressed by Zagros into the origin of the world. This is why he wants to set off a wave of weird revival in advance.
By then, Gui will be a part of this world, and he, the Pluto, will be the source of Gui. As long as he is there, the world consciousness cannot defeat him, and Gui's power will only be firmly grasped in his hands. As Zagros is also a part of the world, the world consciousness naturally cannot expel him.
