Chapter 243

"Hey, hey, hey! That's too exaggerated!"

Loki’s narrowed eyes widened: "Don't tell me you deliberately blew up your strength to bluff people!"

"Loki, Lin Que usually doesn't lie about strength."

Seemingly worried that Loki would say something irrational, Ais took the initiative to explain a few words rarely.

"If he says so, it should be true."

"Sigh~ little Ais clearly hasn't seen my true strength, so you have no confidence in me?"

Loki sighed, and then seemingly thinking of something, suddenly looked at Lin Que with some hostility.

"Speaking of which, Ais’s strength has been rising constantly recently; don't tell me you did it too!"

"As for this, I can only say that there is an indirect reason with me."

After all, if they didn't clear those worlds, Ais couldn't have saved up a large number of points so quickly.

"However, the existence that really caused her strength improvement is not me."

"If you are interested, you can ask Ais; I won't reveal too much about this."

"Doesn't sound like lying."

As the god of lies and tricks, Loki is very sensitive to the statements of others.

Even if she couldn't see through Lin Que’s heart, she could still make a judgment in a short time to determine whether the other party was lying.

"Well~ anyway, I figured out the reason for little Ais’s strength improvement, knowing she isn't doing anything dangerous is enough."

Lifting the wine bottle and emptying the remaining wine in it, Loki smashed it onto the table with a bang, looking at Lin Que with glowing eyes.

"Ask one last question: what is your purpose in coming to this world?"

"There are two in total."

?

Lin Que smiled: "Do you want to guess what they are?"

Loki narrowed her eyes: "I guess one of them is to help Ais take revenge and kill the black dragon."

"Bingo~!"

Lin Que snapped their fingers: "Guessed right!"

"Sure enough, it's like this."

Glancing at Ais, who seemed a bit guilty on the North North North Side, Loki didn't care too much, but focused on the second purpose.

Although the communication with Lin Que wasn't much, Loki was very accurate in looking at people, and in a few words, she probably understood his personality.

"Your second purpose... don't tell me you have taken a fancy to this world?"

"Amazing, amazing!"

Lin Que gave a thumbs up: "You can even guess this right; worthy of being an old oil-slick who has lived for hundreds of millions of years."

"You didn't cover it up, it wasn't hard to guess in the first place."

Seeing Lin Que admit it, Loki scratched her head irritably, her expression becoming a bit helpless.

She knew that this matter wouldn't be that simple.

In this world, there has never been kindness without a reason.

Parents are good to their children because of the kinship of blood.

The mutual friendliness between a husband and wife is due to their respective bonds.

Even a hero helping those in need stems from inner compassion and a sense of justice.

Regardless of the starting point, once an action is taken, there must be a cause.

As a god who has lived for hundreds of millions of years, Loki knows this better than anyone.

Viewing the scenery of another world, helping Ais pass the time out of boredom, or perhaps harboring ulterior motives for this world.

The moment Lin Que’s background was revealed, Loki locked his purpose onto these three possibilities.

The first two don't matter to Loki; after all, gods like them from the Heaven Realm only descend to the lower world to seek the unknown and pass the time after growing weary of Heaven.

The real trouble is the third point: the other party has come to this world with some utilitarian motive.

Generally speaking, people with such thoughts are bound to stir up major events and disrupt the overall structure of the world.

Worried that such a thing might happen, Loki intentionally guessed the worst-case scenario when considering the second purpose.

As it turns out... the worst-case scenario has just appeared.

"You have your eyes on the entire world, then."

Loki sighed and looked at Lin Que with some confusion.

"To be honest, I don't really understand your approach."

"If your strength is truly as you say, capable of finishing off a god in their complete state with a mere breath,"

"then with your power, even if you obtained this small world, it wouldn't bring you any benefits, would it?"

"That’s hard to say."

Lin Que shook his head with a smile: "I have an ability called [Body as World]. Care to guess what its effect is?"

Loki’s eye twitched, and she guessed directly from the worst perspective: "Could it be that you can devour worlds to grow?"

"You really dare to guess."

The smile on Lin Que’s face grew even richer: "But you’re quite lucky; you’re very close to the real answer."

"The effect of [Body as World] is indeed to devour worlds, but it’s not the kind of devouring you understand."

"Rather than devouring, it would be more accurate to call it fusion—directly turning the world into a part of oneself."

Loki understood: "You mean directly carrying a world on your back?"

If he were truly capable of such an exaggerated feat, then Lin Que’s claim about killing gods with a breath might not be a lie.

"Speaking of which, you were invited here by Ais."

Loki glanced at the blonde girl standing to the North North North Side: "Did you tell Ais about this before you came over?"

"Let’s not sow discord at a time like this."

A playful smile appeared on Lin Que’s face: "I know what you want to confirm, so I’ll just give you the answer directly."

"I am able to move freely in this world because I have obtained permission from Ais, a native of this place."

In other words, Ais knew from the very beginning that his goal was to unify the world.

"Come to think of it, I really haven't told her about the matter of fusing the world into my body."

Seeming to think of something, Lin Que looked at Ais: "Do you have any objections to this? If you do, I’ll choose another world to target."

There are plenty of worlds under the Box Garden anyway; finding one to activate the effect of [Body as World] is not a difficult task.

Ais was well aware of this, so she didn't get agitated. Instead, she pondered for two seconds and asked.

"If it fuses, will it have any impact on the world?"

"There won't be any impact in the short term."

Lin Que replied: "However, the essence of [Body as World] is the complementarity between the world and the individual."

"As the fusion time increases, the origin of this world will enter my body, continuously amplifying my power."

"Following this channel, my power will also merge into this world, gradually raising the world’s upper limit."

"Specifically, it means that the newborns in your world will become stronger, and the upper limit they can reach will be higher."

Ais thought for a moment, then looked at Finn and Loki to the North North North Side: "That doesn't sound like a bad thing."

Finn: "......"

Don't say it, but after hearing Lin Que’s explanation, he was actually quite tempted.

"Then what are the flaws?"

Unlike Finn, who was directly tempted, Loki was calmer.

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. There must be flaws in doing this, right?"

"Hmm, the flaws are indeed quite obvious."

Lin Que replied with a smile: "Since this world has merged into my body, it will naturally become a part of me."

"If I want to destroy the world, or if I encounter an enemy I can't beat and die, this world will also be blown to bits."

"Ais, you should have heard that too, right?"

Loki seemed to want to calm her member down and began to try to persuade her.
