Chapter 218: I Betrayed—How Could I Not Have Known?
In Subspace.
The Four Gods lean to one side, their eyes fixed on the opposing Gao Ge and Mao Ge and the Divine Emperor.
And the two sides that once fought to the death, at this moment even without any communication from start to finish, the Divine Emperor and Gao Ge and Mao Ge actually stood together—a rare sight!
The atmosphere is awkward; the Four Gods alternately stare at Gao Ge and Mao Ge and at the Divine Emperor, then furrow their brows, their eyes full of puzzlement over what these three beings are doing.
Finally, after a sweep, Terror, Na Guo, and Color Devil among the Four Gods all turn together toward Jianqi.
Seeing Jianqi still deep in thought after such a long time, having not figured out what happened, Terror and the other two, as well as the Divine Emperor and Gao Ge and Mao Ge opposite, all wear expressions of contempt.
Then, without even a silent thought in their hearts, they publicly scoffed:
"Trash!"
Jianqi: "???"
Jianqi, who had been pondering, angrily looks up; even a clay figure can have a spark of fire, why must I not be a clay figure!
But looking at the six contemptuous gazes from the opposite side, and whether they care about what's behind Jianqi, the six old beings all clench their fists, eager to act.
Jianqi, in a fit of anger, flared up!
He buries his head again, continuing to devise ways to gather information, but only one comes from the Green Skin regional network, and another from the Emperor's own great demon's naked‑eye observation.
In the vast galaxy, Xisi still temporarily retains some divine artifacts as a shield, so even with the contempt of the other six, Jianqi cannot figure it out for a while.
Thus the scene can only have the Four Gods stare even more intently at the three opposite, fearing to miss any clue.
As for the Divine Emperor and Gao Ge and Mao Ge opposite, although they stand together now, their mutual expressions are truly vivid.
One of the Gao Ge brothers lifts his head to the sky and whistles, the other lowers his head to the ground, fiddling with his nails.
Facing the Divine Emperor's raging glare, the two brothers seem as if they don't see the Emperor's teeth about to spark fire!
Looking at Gao Ge and Mao Ge, the Divine Emperor's gaze is only speechless:
"Is that your family? You're that eager?"
"Even the Bone‑breaker's biggest Waaagh is abandoned, and you still want to snatch my people?"
"You're not blind; can't you see that Xisi's skin is human, not Green Skin?!"
The Divine Emperor glares at the two brothers Gao Ge and Mao Ge with fury, and though they are among the top two deities of Subspace, the fierce and cunning Gao Ge might not fully grasp the Emperor's stare.
But the cunning and fierce Mao Ge does catch the Emperor's jab at him.
When they realize the Divine Emperor is questioning their recognition of the Sith Kid's identity, the two brothers Gao Ge and Mao Ge just stare dumbfounded, then silently send some Blessing through Subspace.
Then, under Saint Celestin's and the Divine Emperor's gaze from behind, Xisi doesn't even realize what's happening, and truly transforms into a green sun!
"That should be green enough, right?"
Mao Ge, puffed up, looks back at the Divine Emperor, while the Emperor, after a long pause, actually doesn't know how to retort.
After all, you can never wake two people pretending to sleep.
Reasoning?
Is Gao Ge the master of reasoning?
I, Gao Ge, say he's Green Skin; even if he sprouts Dead Spirits, he's still Green Skin!
The Divine Emperor, speechless at these two simple‑minded beings playing shamelessly, can only suppress his urge to rage‑curse, glances cautiously at the Four Gods whose faces are already fully creased, and chooses Gao Ge's method: pretends not to know anything.
If this situation becomes known to the Four Gods, the galaxy will truly become lively!
Although the Divine Emperor knows he can't hide it for long—maybe a while, maybe a moment—at least if he can't beat Gao Ge, he must first beat the Four Gods!
Just as the Divine Emperor was about to turn and look for Kiriman Bangbang's two punches, the normally honest Gao Ge suddenly strikes, and while the Emperor's attention is on Kiriman, one of them slaps the Divine Emperor twice.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Four crisp sounds in a row; not only is the Divine Emperor stunned, even the Four Gods let out a sudden scoff.
The Divine Emperor, enraged, is about to hammer these two beings to death, but seeing Gao Ge eager to act, and Mao Ge's face full of triumphant satisfaction, the Emperor, after a long pause, actually restrains himself!
Is this the time to be busy fighting?
Gao Ge is deliberately stalling the Divine Emperor to buy time for his own Green Skin army!
Seeing the Divine Emperor actually hold back, the Four Gods' scoffs freeze instantly; if they previously watched like an audience, now, seeing even the Emperor act so 'abnormal', even Terror, the least thoughtful among them, knows the situation has escalated!
Finally, after confirming that Jianqi still doesn't know what's happening, the three finally can't hold back, and begin issuing orders directly to their servants in the real universe.
The result of those orders is, on the Radiance of Makurag, as the galaxy's most powerful, largest Imperial Regent, Kiriman faces a flood of reports that nearly crushes him!
"Crazy!"
"The whole galaxy is fucking crazy!"
Kiriman has no trace of the composure of an Imperial Regent; now, looking at the ever‑increasing reports before him, he feels everyone in the galaxy has lost their minds!
He casually picks up one, Kiriman scans it:
"The Devourer of Worlds doesn't cut people, yet asks around everywhere? What's up? Angelon wants to switch to being a diplomatic ambassador?"
After saying that, he grabs another, Kiriman's mind tilts to the right:
"Taifengsi doesn't spread plague but heals people everywhere, only asking believers to travel the galaxy more? This kid doesn't believe Na Guo, switches to 'Wind and Freedom'?"
Kiriman knows his initial claim that 'the whole galaxy is crazy' was somewhat exaggerated.
But now, just looking at the two reports he casually picked up, their contents tell Kiriman that indeed the entire galaxy is in total chaos!
He doesn't even set aside the reports in both hands; Kiriman looks at the report directly in front of him, his expression even more vivid.
It is a report from the National Church, specifically a notice from Saint Celestin addressed solely to Kiriman.
Although unopened, Kiriman, just by glancing at the surface, knows it's not a battle report.
In the past, such a message from one's own side would have been opened by Kiriman without hesitation.
But now, faced with a pile of abnormal reports that include his own side's, and not merely a military dispatch, Kiriman stares blankly for a while, unable to open it.
Only after a long while, Kiriman puts down the Terror and Na Guo‑related information in his hands, takes a deep breath, and picks up Saint Celestin's personal notice.
He glances silently, pauses, then Kiriman suddenly tears it open.
Afterwards, having only looked at the first row and first line, Kiriman directly widened his eyes and suddenly pressed the report down again.
At the same time, his face was completely covered by an expression of "Everyone's gone mad!"
Until Kiriman took several deep breaths to steady his mind, only then did he grit his teeth, summon courage, and look again.
Then, upon reading the first sentence of the first line, Kiriman only felt that it truly was not the time for him to have come back to life!
"Saint Celes......"
"Rebelled?!"
Kiriman could not believe it, while the Astartes hero who delivered the report had a strange expression; after holding it in for a while, he then, with a face full of incomprehension, cautiously reminded:
"It's not that Saint Celes rebelled, but that Saint Celes said......"
"You have rebelled!"
Kiriman: "???"
"I've rebelled—how could I not know?!"
