Chapter 687: The Polluted Evil God

Go to hell, it sounds like you're talking nonsense.

Zhang Jie retorted speechlessly, "What the hell is this? He himself just gets stronger by devouring pollution, right?"

But essentially, this line of thought is indeed correct.

"To kill the anomaly and end this disaster, you must first merge with it."

Zhang Jie couldn't help but recall, since the beginning, the situation of those humans.

Their bodies are already composed of pollution, for example, the added Black Water Divine Body, and the sword-body that Zhang Jie smashed with a punch.

Essentially, it's just a gathering of things whose only human aspect is their thought form. From that point on, they have been able to moderately absorb pollution.

"So does that mean I'm already a Legendary Investigator?"

Zhang Jie smiled helplessly, "Isn't this just going in circles again?"

"What exactly is a Legendary Investigator? History records that someone once briefly reached this realm, but no one knows whether this realm truly exists."

Whether it's the Evil God or the three abnormal gods, to mortals they are impossible to gaze upon, impossible to name, touching them means death, confronting them means collapse.

Just like characters in the same horror film, the different protagonists produce different sensations.

If you are a character like Zhang Jie, possessing supernatural abilities and free of taboos, then this horror game would become an adventure game.

"So for the Evil God, a Legendary Investigator is actually not a realm, right?"

Zhang Jie seemed to understand something; all the information he had previously looked up seemed to be approaching this evidence.

Perhaps from the very beginning, the Legendary Investigator simply didn't exist...

So-called Legendary Investigator is nothing more than a vessel capable of carrying all pollution.

Zhang Jie stroked his chin, feeling that he was getting ever closer to the truth....

"Getting close to the truth of your Ox Demon!!!"

Old Zhang outside the time rift only felt like he was going to be angered to death by his inner self.

How did you manage to have the answer process all correct, yet the conclusion you reached is completely wrong?

Yes, that's right, the Evil God treats you as a vessel to carry pollution, but not this kind of vessel!

His original intention was to create a race capable of resisting pollution erosion, not just a single vessel.

The process was almost entirely correct, the answer was also correct, but the result was wrong.

No, buddy, does he really have that much stupidity himself?

Alright, alright, maybe he does, after all the evidence chain isn't complete yet.

The Legendary Investigator is a truly existing realm; many Zhang Jies, after experiencing countless tragedies, will reach this realm.

But this solitary time journey did not end because of their breakthrough.

They merely concluded their own stories.

"This time, my timeline never reached the moment of becoming a Legendary Investigator."

"In most cases, it's because of the presence of Qi Yu."

Zhang Jie recalled the past few failures caused by Qi Yu.

If the mimicry community could formally cooperate with humanity, then all problems could actually be perfectly solved.

Because the mimicry community is originally a test stone placed by the Evil God in human society.

"All Zhang Jies! Look over here, I've found a new clue!!!"

Suddenly, a Zhang Jie, after completing his own line, shouted out in great excitement.

This is a clue that no one has ever known; with it, one can almost explain everything the Evil God has done.

"After becoming the supreme leader of the Anomaly Bureau! I discovered this in the ruins of the Anomaly Bureau on Cloud Star!"

"The Evil God has long been polluted! No, no, no, no—it should be that this artificial intelligence named the Evil God has long been polluted!"

"Mimicry is not the so-called new humans!!!"

"They are Insect disasters, haven't you noticed? They are Insect disasters!!!"

Zhang Jie froze instantly, a chill shot up his spine to the back of his head.

"You say... what?"

"You mean mimicry is actually the outside Insect disaster?"

This news might be trivial to other Zhang Jies, but for him it is the basic logic determining all his subsequent actions.

"Yes! In my timeline, I ultimately became a Legendary Investigator."

"But it's strange that the crisis wasn't resolved, and the ending is no different from what we previously imagined."

"High-dimensional energy scours the ground; the entire universe, whether natural disaster or civilization, all disappears, and the universe falls into dead silence."

"So I tried excavating civilizational remnants on several planets, seeking some clues, and that's how I found them!"

He couldn't wait to recount the texts left by those pre-civilizations to others.

"Insect disaster.... no, that's not an Insect disaster."

"They are... Insect disasters that have devoured Blood Disaster, Nightmare, and intelligent machinery! They are no longer Insect disasters."

"Perhaps you don't understand if I say it this way, but this is actually Entropy Disaster!"

"The final form of Entropy Disaster is black chaos, but before that, there will be a merging process."

"And those Insect disasters are such products; merely because they haven't fully merged, the civilization of the universe collapses at a touch."

"And that Evil God is actually a product after pollution; here pollution does not refer to high-dimensional energy, but to the genuine pollution outside, natural disaster!"

Zhang Jie:....

He personally saw those texts, his mind in utter chaos.

Does this mean that the essential direction of all their timelines is completely wrong?

"So does that mean all our directions are wrong?"

Everyone realized this terrible thing, but actually it wasn't that terrible.

It's merely pulling new branches from the main line, then reconstructing the ending by following these clues.

This situation has already repeated several times since the beginning.

Originally everyone thought the anomaly bureau was the source of all the trouble, believing the galactic sclera was a lie they fabricated.

Later they learned of the evil god, learned of mimicry, and learned their true identities.

Everyone again changed their goal, evolving toward a perfect human race.

In between? Obviously they have undergone several changes again.

And now, they have to start over again.

"No no no, not right..."

When everyone started thinking about how to change the timeline next, Zhang Jie began a brainstorm.

The problem is here, the evil god should not have been completely contaminated.

Like the energy when humans encounter contamination, they will suffer memory confusion, thought disorder, and strange behavior.

But their goal won't change, like the thing that sneak-attacked the older sister earlier.

He will go on a killing spree following the scent of all happiness, because their obsession is like that.

"And the evil god's obsession..."

Zhang Jie's mind flashed a hint of enlightenment.
