Chapter 541 The Guardian's Mission

"Aglaia, you said that the gods were created, then who has such powerful strength and ability to create the gods?" Ji Zi asked with a frown, her eyes full of confusion.

Aglaya shook her head. "I don't know either. This is a secret I discovered by chance during my long years of guarding. However, there are very few records about the mastermind behind the creation of the gods. We only know that there is an extremely mysterious force behind this, which is far beyond our imagination."

"Then how were they sealed before? It must have taken an extremely powerful person or a force beyond imagination to do that, right?" Lin Yu continued to ask.

Aglaya glanced at Lin Yu and said solemnly, "Regarding the sealing of the gods, it is an ancient history that has been covered in dust for a long time."

"Legend has it that a group of guardians who also possessed powerful strength that rivaled the gods worked together, with the help of a divine weapon, and after paying an inestimable price, they finally succeeded in sealing the twelve gods."

"However, this artifact mysteriously disappeared after completing the feat of sealing. Perhaps its power was exhausted during the sealing process, or perhaps it was deliberately hidden in some unknown mysterious corner."

"And the seal that I am responsible for protecting is only a part of the entire huge seal system. As for the specific whereabouts of the other parts, I have no idea."

"Is this guardian the same as you? Is he also guarding an area?" Lin Yu asked.

Aglaya paused for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then slowly spoke, "Come with me, I will take you to a place where you may be able to gain a deeper understanding of the Guardians."

After saying that, she walked out of the room first.

Seeing this, Lin Yu and the others looked at each other, with both anticipation and a hint of nervousness in their eyes, and then followed without hesitation.

No matter where Aglaya was taking them, it was better than staying in this room and waiting to die.

After following Aglaia on a winding journey, they arrived at a magnificent hall that resembled a church.

The dome of the hall soars into the clouds, and the surrounding walls are carved with exquisite patterns and mysterious symbols, as if telling an ancient story.

There are many stone statues wearing masks around. They have different shapes, some are solemn and dignified, while others exude a mysterious aura. They stand there quietly, as if they are the guardians of history.

"Please look up." Aglaya stopped and stretched out his finger, signaling everyone to look up.

Hearing this, everyone looked up, their eyes focused on the mural above their heads.

I only found a huge and gorgeous mural above my head, which seemed like a door to the past.

There are thirteen people on the mural, and their figures exude an otherworldly aura.

However, their faces are also blurry, as if covered by a mysterious veil, making it impossible to peek into their true appearance, which adds a sense of mystery and awe.

"What is this..?" Ji Zi asked softly, with a hint of doubt in her voice.

"These are the guardians of previous generations, the 'saviors' of this world, the descendants of gods. They are not the children of gods, but they have obtained the power of gods." Aglaya's voice echoed in the hall with reverence.

"They are heroes of this world and have left a mark in history."

"And now, there are thirteen guardians alive in this world."

"I am one of them. I am not their descendant either. Instead, I have obtained the power of successive guardians in a unique way. This is the so-called inheritance. This is the inheritance of a mission and a heavy responsibility. I will use my life to protect this inheritance and complete this mission."

"And this mission is to completely eliminate the gods."

Everyone stared at the mural, their hearts filled with shock and confusion.

Lin Yu was the first to break the silence and asked, "Aglaiya, you said that you inherited power in another way. What kind of inheritance is this? And why did you choose it?"

Aglaya turned slightly and glanced at everyone. "When I was young, I accidentally broke into an ancient ruin. There was a source of power left by successive guardians. I resonated with that power, and it was like a ray of light that merged into my soul. From then on, I shouldered the mission of a guardian."

Ji Zi nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that the inheritance of this guardian is not passed down by blood, but the choice of fate. What about the other twelve guardians? Do they have similar experiences?"

"That's about right. You've all met Tibao before. The three of them are also guardians, occupying the three guardian positions."

"Are these three... guardians? Why do they look like children... They have the same name and the same appearance, but different personalities, and I can't tell how powerful they are." Lin Yu frowned and said with a puzzled look on his face.

The lovely yet unpredictable appearance of Tibao emerged in his mind, and it was difficult to associate them with the guardians who shouldered a great mission.

Aglaya sighed softly, as if she had expected everyone to have such questions, and patiently explained, "Tibao and the other three are quite special. They were originally one body, but they were differentiated from an extremely rare guardian spirit."

"Although they look like children and their powers seem invisible, they can burst out with unimaginable power at critical moments. It is a protective power that comes from the depths of their souls, which is different from my direct form of power."

Walter touched his chin and said thoughtfully, “So, their existence is like a hidden trump card, which is usually not revealed, but once the crisis comes, they will become the key force to reverse the situation?”

Aglaya nodded. "That's understandable, but the stimulation of this power requires specific conditions and opportunities, and their control over this power is still growing and improving. That's why they usually look like ordinary children."

"They know limited things. After all, their experiences and memories have been affected to a certain extent during the differentiation process. But I believe that as time goes by and they grow, they will gradually recover more memories and strength."

After listening to Aglaya's words, everyone had a deeper understanding of the identities and roles of Tibao and the other two, and a more comprehensive understanding of the guardian's heritage and mission.
