Chapter 142: A System Like Sparse Weeds
【Someone has stirred fate. When the countdown ends, the “miracle” known as “suffering” will return and descend upon this land.】
“‘The miracle of suffering’ will return and descend…”
Colin’s mood darkened slightly. The phrasing of the prompt was somewhat peculiar, referring to “suffering” as a “miracle.” What could be summarized with the two words “suffering”? It wasn’t referring to “sufferers,” “The Pain’s Bearer” “Ashes and Silver” or anything else… just the two words “suffering.”
“Could it be another divine descent?”
Colin recalled a revered name. If anything could embody all suffering, it would undoubtedly be… “The Mother of Suffering and Thorns.” This deity grants all miracles of suffering… All current “miracles” originate from this unknown high entity. Yet, she is also the most mysterious. Aside from the fact that the miracles of suffering stem from her, there is no information about her.
“Is she still alive?”
Colin remembered that at the end of the “Era of Suffering,” a cataclysm had erupted, turning everyone who didn’t become a skeleton into a mutant. After that, there were no further developments… He had always thought that this pinnacle of the “Era of Suffering” had died along with it. But now it seemed otherwise…
“It’s very likely that, like the ‘Night,’ she is in some special state, unable to easily arrive. But who has stirred the ripples of fate?”
【You realize that it is not you who has initiated this fateful event…】
