Chapter 171 - One Seven One
It was just another day in the town of Hallmark, people were starting their daily routine. Most were going to work and children to schools.
Nobody knew when it appeared but it was not there a moment ago.
It just appeared out of thin air, the children and even most of the grown up's who saw it first were shocked and frightened.
A kid who was forcefully sent to school tugged at his mothers dress.
" Mama look .. look there is a big giant standing over there..
"
The mother who was focused on the beautiful dress of the lady that passed by didn't notice what was happening above, she reprimanded her child.
" Stop spouting nonsense Ralf, It doesn't matter whether a giant appears or an ancient sage, I will make sure that you attend the school today…. Hmp.. what the..
"
She had aso unintentionally looked above and saw the grand apparition that had appeared there all of sudden.
Within no time everyone in the town came out of their houses and works, to watch what was happening with shock and panic.
All the crowded people were looking up with all kinds of different expressions, some fear some with curiosity and all kinds of similar emotions.
But with the mobilization of the enforcer teams and the public announcement that were made, the public who were starting to panic a little soon calmed down.
A giant had appeared in the middle of the town out of nowhere.
In truth this was not any giant but a big life like 3D projection of a person.
The apparition was of a person dressed in an ancient looking black kāṣāya. His appearance was short and stocky, with a bushy white head of hair and flashing eyes. His skin was swarthy and physique gave an impression of vigor.
He stood there without moving, gazing upwards as if scrutinizing the movements of the entire universe.
The aura emitted by the person showed that this was a man of immense learning and sharp intellectual power, An ancient sage on whom the time didn't have much of an effect.
As Everyone in the town thought that the humongous 3D projection was some kind of an accident and it will disappear soon.
The Ancient looking Sage turned his face, It felt like the sages deep black eyes were staring at each and everyone of them tearing through time and space.
Then to everyone's surprise the projection sighed deeply, before speaking in a deep and lonely voice.
" I, Karl Marx, an ancient sage of the Order, in my long life have seen too much, all kinds of mysteries, kingdoms and empires being born and falling on their own, but the river of time flew forward uninterrupted.
I have been studying the heavenly bodies my entire life and now I have finally seen a great destruction approaching this planet .
The calamity will swallow this planet whole, There will be nothing left on this planet other than death and destruction.
But this is the fate of this planet and no one can change it….
"
After a pause he continued, but the people who were listening were completely gobsmacked, they were unable to make head or tail of this man's speech as the man spoke in an entirely different language that the commoners have not heard before.
But one of the youngsters who had a hobby of learning about history, recognized that the language spoken by this apparition was familiar.
He instantly took out his sky watch to browse certain nodes and easily came to a node which was a forum on the ancient language and to his surprise he had found that most of the words spoken by this ancient sage were mentioned in this node with their meaning.
Of course this was one of the nodes created by Dror with a false identity.
This shocking event was not an isolated one, but something happening in too many towns, villages and cities.
The same 3D projection had also appeared even in the central cities in more than one place.
Even the alliance government was troubled at this sudden appearance of the apparition over the city, and enforcers along with other similar departments were mobilized to find what was really happening.
While just like the young man who identified the language in the Hallmark city, similarly many people who had visited the nodes which were heavily promoted and publicized through paid advertisement and other methods, started understanding the speech given by this 3d projection of the person who appeared to be an ancient stage.
While the 3D projection still continued it's speech, with a calm and serene expression.
" In my dreams I had revelation about the future, a voice from an unknown source urged me to create this recording as this was really important for the future of this planet as well as the whole universe.
In my revelation I saw that after the calamity passed through this planet it will remain a dead planet for thousands and thousands of years, until a great sage will come to this planet and have mercy on it to cleanse a part of it, making it habitable once more.
The planet will once again welcome life, People will once again occupy it, create kingdoms on it, and Life will go on in peace and happiness.
Until one day some evil eye's would fall on this planet again and there would arise, wars with severe consequences.
A king would be betrayed by its own vassal families and lose his throne.
The suffering of the losers would be much smaller than the suffering of the common man.
The commoners will suffer the most, their treatment would be nothing better than that of a slave.
Their children will also be born into slavery.
The once peaceful and flourishing kingdom would turn into a degraded nation filled with cries and indignation of the ordinary men.
This despair will only be the beginning , as the evil that had focused its gaze on this peaceful planet to turn it into a planet of despair will start baring its fangs again. If not stopped it will plunge this planet into eternal abyss and along with it will begin the destruction of this entire star system and then universe at large.
In that nightmare of a revelation I searched for even the tiniest of hope, I don't know for how long .
Until I was close to giving up all my hope. Like a tiny light in the deepest and darkest night.
I saw it…
the white sky in which the seven celestial bodies and the red dragon hunting them moving in the wind.
Then I saw the ordinary men stand up and stand tall to fight, to face this evil that was prevailing on the planet with a slogan lingering in their mouth.
"Ordinary men of the world Unite.
Unite and unite to become stronger,
For you have nothing to lose but the chains that bind your hands..
"
"Long live the Revolution...
"
With that slogan all of them came together to hold their hands, to fight against this Evil, these atrocities that prevail.
The fear that filled their heart until then completely disappeared to be replaced with a new born courage, a courage that sprang from unity. The comrades that stood with them became the source of their very own courage.
A fire rose in the heart of each and every one of them and when they stood together, the little flames came together and became a sun of its own and destroyed the darkness that had enslaved them until that moment.
And then they were free, the air that they breathed didn't have a tint of oppression any more…. They were free …
A revolution of the people, by the people, for the people..... shall never perish....
thak thak ..clak clak
"
The projection of the Sage seemed to be speaking more but all of a sudden people could only hear the sound of something similar to a machine malfunctioning and just like that the 3D projection also broke down to disappear completely into sparks of light.
The people who didn't understand anything just stood there watching in confusion, many enthusiast had recorded the whole happening in their Sky watch or other devices and sending into all kinds of platforms and nodes with captions like.
" Watch a miracle..
"
" A giant suddenly appears above the town..
"
" The sage apparition of ancient times..
"
" The world shaking event, watch the whole video to know more..
"
The Mystery behind the giant sage..
"
It wasn't long before this was the talk of the whole planet, it was like an uncontrollable storm that enveloped the whole planet by a surprise.
But the storm had only started and the alliance government was already unable to contain the situation.
But before the experts of the alliance government could find the real reason behind the appearance of the 3D projection or translate the content of the message delivered by the apparition of the ancient sage.
Another big news struck the whole planet, some ordinary people had already translated the whole message and as the translated message started circulating the storm started brewing into a hurricane that would shake the whole planet from its core.
At first it was some ancient language enthusiast that tried to fragmently translate the message,
But soon the wholly translated message started appearing one after another throughout the sky network in different nodes and started spreading like a wildfire.
