Chapter 206: Beware of Being Pecked in the Eyes

"Heitian, you have lost."

A young man dressed in white robes, holding a Bible in his hands, said this to a young man wearing a bamboo hat and fishing by the river.

Upon hearing this, Heitian did not reply, continuing to stare fixedly at his fishing rod until the float dipped.

"The fish has taken the bait."

Heitian gave a sharp tug; the fish struggled in the air, its scales shimmering with a dazzling light under the sun, before finally landing in the creel.

Only then did Heitian turn his head to look at the young man beside him, saying with a calm expression.

"Lost is lost, what is there to be concerned about?"

"According to the agreement, the position of leader of Ouroboros should be taken over by the Cross Religion."

The young man holding the Bible looked at Heitian with a cold expression; the Cross Religion was Ouroboros's largest financier, yet within Ouroboros, the influence of the Cross Religion had always been suppressed.

He was currently very dissatisfied with Heitian's inaction, as Heitian's mistakes had led to the exposure of Kalki and damage to a large number of Ouroboros's subordinate forces.

Coupled with the targeting by the Heavenly Army, this wave of events had reduced Ouroboros's influence by at least fifty percent.

But Heitian was just a leader, and he hadn't invested any capital into Ouroboros; it was the Cross Religion that provided the money, and Heitian was just throwing the Cross Religion's money away.

Even if the Cross Religion was wealthy and powerful, it could not withstand Heitian throwing money away like this.

It was unknown how many years it would take to manage and restore these lost forces.

But in all likelihood, they could not be restored, because the Snake had already been exposed under the sunlight.

"Oh? Young man, do not fix your gaze on temporary losses; your vision should be more long-term."

Heitian narrowed his eyes, looking off into an unknown direction; the only thing certain was that his gaze did not linger on the young man beside him.

"Young man?"

The young man holding the Bible let out a cold snort and retorted.

"Clearly you are the youngest one, Orpheus."

"Heh."

Heitian smiled, somewhat speechless; since he would not listen to his advice, then so be it.

"You are still as impatient as ever, Judas."

"Orpheus, I did not come here to discuss this with you, but to notify you."

Judas said expressionlessly, cold as frost, as if Heitian's words had just stung him deeply.

Heitian actually dared to mention that name; this grudge, I, Jesus, have noted it down.

The name Judas was a pain he could never shake off.

"Truly a young man after all."

Heitian smiled silently; he was not just talking about the age of becoming a Two-digit.

If one only spoke of the time since becoming a Two-digit, he was several hundred years later than Judas... ah no, than the Holy Son.

But if one spoke of the time spent struggling in Little Garden, he had been at it far longer than Judas.

He had struggled all the way from the Dawn Period to become a Supreme Being now; the hardships and bitterness he had experienced were far greater than those of Judas.

Long-term vision and sufficient patience are essential qualities for a chess player.

Saying this, Heitian closed his eyes slightly, relaxed his expression, and began to divine the future of Little Garden once more.

With the status of a Two-digit, divining the future would always yield at least a few hints.

When Heitian opened his eyes again, the smile in them could no longer be hidden.

He saw that in the near future, Canary would break through to become a Three-digit, and behind Canary were the angry faces of countless Gods and Buddhas.

And among them, what made Heitian feel the happiest was that he also saw the Holy Son in Eden, beside himself with rage.

"Is Little Garden finally going to have another Three-digit Poet?"

The Poet is the strongest of the fourth type; this statement was not just for show, but was a fact.

Currently, among the seventeen Supreme Beings of Little Garden, there are Gods and Buddhas, Pure-blooded Dragon Species, Star Spirits, and also Poets.

Among the seventeen Supreme Beings, Poets account for two; isn't that the strongest fourth type in Little Garden?

Regarding Canary, Heitian's feelings were quite complex; after all, Canary was his student and had played an important role in his path to becoming a Two-digit.

In other words, if not for Canary, he would likely still be wandering around as a Three-digit.

The source of the Merit that allowed him to become a Two-digit was the Renaissance triggered by Canary spreading the Black Death Virus.

Borrowing the identity of Canary's teacher, he monopolized the Merit of the entire Renaissance and deceived the Gods, filling the Merit of the Renaissance into the Distorted History.

After all, it was the first and only time history had been modified; no one knew how Human History would react to the modification of history.

Whether those newly generated Merits would be credited to Little Garden by Human History, or if those Merits were all used to fill the deficit of Human History.

And Canary became the scapegoat; one must know that at the time, almost all God Groups were waiting for the Merit after crossing the Dystopia.

But because it was Canary who made the Dystopia disappear, it was a shortcut taken to cross it.

Merit? What Merit? It was lucky enough that the Decadent Wind didn't come to settle scores with you.

The Gods could only resign themselves to bad luck and vent their resentment on Canary.

However, because of his protection, she had remained safe and sound until now.

He was still looking forward to Canary walking his path and becoming his fellow traveler.

It was just that Canary was disappointing, indulging in the dream of the Layer Master Alliance and unable to extricate herself, so he had no choice but to take action and shatter the dream of the Alliance.

And give Canary a decent ending; this was the last thing he, as a teacher, could give Canary.

But now, Heitian was surprised; Canary had talent, actually managing to deceive even him.

Originally, he had thought Su Nian had popped out from some obscure corner; now, he even believed a little that it was truly Canary's arrangement.

It couldn't really be, as in his last divination, that all of this was Shiroyasha's scheme, could it?

If Shiroyasha had this ability, Little Garden would have long since become her toy; the Fourteen Sun Sovereignties, plus the Star Spirit of the Original Star, gave her too great an advantage on the chessboard.

Amidst Heitian's gaze full of appreciation, Heitian waved his hand, helping Canary cover up many details she hadn't even noticed herself.

"Canary is still too young; let me, this teacher, give her a hand."

Heitian smiled and said that if it were a few minutes ago, upon discovering that all of this was Canary's scheme, he would only have wanted to crush Canary to death.

After all, he was the Alliance Leader of Ouroboros, and Canary was clearly intending to be an enemy of Ouroboros; with different stances, it was impossible for him and Canary to reconcile.

But now...

Sorry, the position of Alliance Leader of Ouroboros had already been seized by the Holy Son of the Cross Religion; he suddenly had no grudge against Canary.

It just so happened he could teach the young man Judas a lesson, a lesson from a senior.

It was absolutely not for any reason of holding a grudge; how could he, Heitian, be so petty?

"Although it is a bit late, I still want to offer a reminder: Judas, be careful not to get your eyes pecked out."

Heitian said with a hint of mischievousness.

After the Holy Son returned to Eden, he looked at the sound transmission that had appeared in Eden at some unknown time.

Judas gritted his teeth and said.

"Heitian..."

"Once I swallow Kalki's Spirit Status and advance further in the Two-digit realm, I will definitely make you pay."

Because of their Spirit Status, both Heitian and he had only become Two-digits through the Spirit Status of a Poet, and both were because they had taken advantage of Dystopia.

Their strength was not strong.

In fact, among the seventeen Two-digits in Little Garden, they both belonged to the bottom-tier group.

The kind that even the Halloween Queen could easily beat two-on-one.

This was also the reason why they would participate in the Sun King Group.

Nothing else, just to advance further.

——

In Arcadia, Su Nian flipped through the 【Unofficial History of the Ages】, watching that passage in the Unofficial History, that Unofficial History regarding Canary, gradually become real.

He couldn't help but reveal a smile.

"Sure enough, throwing all this blame onto Canary was the correct choice."

It completely cleared him of suspicion and could also make the Fiction of Canary become much more real.

Just with that move earlier, Fictional Canary had almost transformed from virtual to real.

Although he didn't know who had helped, Canary, who was originally only a Five-digit in strength as a fiction, had now directly promoted to a Four-digit Fictional Historian.

Afterwards, Su Nian closed the Unofficial History of the Ages and put the book away.

But Su Nian hadn't rested for long before Leticia arrived at Su Nian's side holding a pile of visiting cards.

"Master, it is time to do real work."

"What... is this?"

Su Nian asked with a trembling voice; he seemed to have already realized his miserable fate to come.

"Visiting cards from various God Groups and Communities."

Leticia said indifferently, while the shadow at her feet had already climbed onto Su Nian's ankles at some unknown time.

"Almost forgot, Master, these are just from the God Groups; there are also former allies waiting for your reply."

From Leticia's thirty-seven-degree mouth came words that made Su Nian sweat.

"Leticia, can't you handle them?"

Su Nian could already imagine the pressure the upcoming victory banquet would cause for Arcadia.

But he really just wanted to contact his former allies?

But why did things turn out like this?

"Sorry Master, you are the leader of Arcadia now."

Leticia tilted her head, looking at Su Nian very gently.

It was just that this gaze made Su Nian want to run away even more.

"By the way, Master, Arcadia simply cannot withstand so many guests, even adding Perseus is not enough."

"And security is also a major problem."

"And the hospitality for those high gods; different high gods have different taboos and preferences..."

"And..."

"And..."

"Alright, stop talking, Leticia, I know."

Su Nian hurriedly blocked Leticia's mouth.
