Chapter 1064
The quest never ends, I am 【Truth】.
Not bad; at this moment, Wei Zhi was clearly Galusha. Cheng Shi had ultimately played it safe in his own experiment; to prevent Galusha from causing trouble, he borrowed the power of the Truth Limit to merge her with Wei Zhi, letting her take Wei Zhi's place.
But he could only do this much. How to let a trial NPC borrow a player's identity to crawl out of the river of history—this question was already beyond the syllabus; the rest could only be left to fate.
But now it seems, fate has arrived.
When 【Deception】 fished Galusha out along with the other players, it undoubtedly confirmed her identity as a player.
As for whether 【Convention】 acknowledges it, that is not important. As long as 【Deception】 has made a move, it will naturally deceive the others.
But why He would acknowledge Galusha, no one knows.
Galusha had also never seen a god, or rather, in the history of the Star Fall Continent, very few people could see a god, so she also appeared very well-behaved at this moment, far from as rampant as she was in the trial.
But her strength lay in her boldness; at least when the gods were watching her, she still dared to sneak a peek. But after peeking back and forth, she did not feel the aura of her own Lord.
Think about it: in a siege by the gods, if there is no place for one's own Lord, that means there are only two possibilities: either the status is too low to be at the table, or He has already been finished off.
Galusha felt that her Lord would not die so easily, so it was highly probable that it was the first case.
Thinking of this, she actually felt her own fear for the first time in a long while.
If 【Foolish】 is not qualified to stand with the gods, then what is the meaning of what she has done?
Wouldn't it all have become a foolish act!?
Besides these two serious ones, there were two unserious ones.
When Chen Yi found the pair of eyes belonging to 【Memory】 among the eyes of the gods, he was already driven mad.
He wanted to approach 【Memory】 like a madman, but was sneered at and knocked unconscious by 【Deception】. However, from beginning to end, 【Memory】 had never glanced in this direction once.
As for Meng Youfang...
You might find it hard to imagine how this "Seventeenth God" sees gods, and how he faces so many gods.
Just as Cheng Shi was frantically analyzing the situation, Fang Yuan was standing there at a loss, Galusha was feeling uneasy in her heart, and Chen Yi was knocked unconscious by 【Deception】, this President of the God-Worship Society took a step forward with a solemn look, neither humble nor arrogant—no, it should be said, with steady composure, he scanned the gods present and nodded in greeting:
"We meet again, old friends.
But this time, the timing is a bit early."
Saying this, under the vague gaze of the gods, he took a step across and blocked in front of Cheng Shi, facing 【Truth】, who was being fiercely attacked by 【Destiny】, and said in a deep voice:
"【Truth】, you intend to steal my throne, so use all your methods on me.
All of this has nothing to do with my good brother; do not hurt him."
"!!!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole scene...
Had no reaction.
Not one of the "He"s would take a mortal's wild words seriously. At most, the gods watching the show would think about that 【Time】 who hadn't appeared in the eyes of the gods for a long time because of Meng Youfang's faith.
As for this inexplicable declaration, no god cared.
But Cheng Shi cared!
He looked at Meng Youfang's back, and he was stunned.
Not a brother, you're playing for real!?
You're doing this in front of the gods too!?
It's one thing for you to admit you're a god, but why drag me into this at a time like this? Are you afraid there aren't enough eyes on me?
However, one thing is one thing: at this moment, Cheng Shi had no complaints about Meng Youfang, only appreciation!
Never mind whether Meng Youfang is delusional, and never mind if he is terminally ill; in short, when he considers himself a god, he truly dares to face 【Truth】 directly!
Most importantly, he dares to protect himself in front of 【Truth】!
How much courage does that take?
Of course, for Meng Youfang, this might not be courage, but "confidence," but in Cheng Shi's eyes, it was different.
When a person reaches the extreme in a certain trade, he is "God-Chosen"!
Meng Youfang is worthy of his "God Name." This brother is reliable; when there's trouble, he really steps up, and when there's lightning, he really carries it!
It is a pity that the small episode caused by a mortal did not have the slightest impact on the atmosphere and the rhythm of the gods present. The confrontation continued, and 【Truth】 was not even distracted by the actions of the two gods of 【Void】.
He just took this blow from 【Destiny】 head-on!
Actually, it is easy to understand: with 【Convention】 in place, a True God cannot die, so when there is no good way to deal with it, taking it head-on is the optimal solution.
【Truth】 understands optimal solutions best.
But the facts seem not to be so. What 【Destiny】 did not expect was that the effect of this strike was far better than He had anticipated, and far exceeded the expectations of the gods present, because after being hit, 【Truth】 looked like He was really going to die.
"!!!"
"This is impossible! 【Convention】 will protect all divine authority so that it is not lost; you simply cannot kill a True God!"
【Annihilation】 was the first to be afraid; at that moment, He seemed to see His own end.
He only rejoiced that this strike, which bypassed the protection of 【Convention】, did not hit Him. However, what He did not know was that 【Destiny】 was also confused at this moment.
No, it cannot be called confused, but rather stunned.
But immediately, those cold eyes turned completely gloomy, because He realized He had been deceived.
Set up by 【Truth】!
The existence of 【Convention】 can indeed ensure that every True God is safe when confronting other gods, but some gods still died, such as 【Prosperity】; even with the protection of 【Convention】, He still fell into the void.
Why?
Because at that time, 【Prosperity】 chose to self-destruct, using the Final Edict to fulfill His vision of universal prosperity.
So, if 【Truth】 were to die at this very moment, it would certainly not be because of His own divine strike, but because the other party chose self-destruction!
"!!!"
This madman, who had been questing on the path of 【Truth】 for several eras, actually stopped caring about His own life!?
What does He want to do!?
An experiment that makes 【Truth】 willing to give up even His life—what magnitude of experiment must it be!?
No, everything is wrong!
Seeing the madness of 【Truth】 overflowing, 【Deception】, who was watching the show from the side, also retracted His smile. A rare trace of solemnity flashed in those eyes, and the frequency of the star-point flickering was intensifying.
And at this moment, 【Truth】, who was on the verge of explosion, suddenly smiled and responded to the question 【Deception】 had asked earlier.
"I was born to quest, walking to see is truth, insight is reason; I have never known what a foolish act is.
The world thinks I am insane, but they do not know that insanity settles into knowledge, and madness evaporates into wisdom.
If there is no accumulation of knowledge and no grasping of laws, how can one speak of 【Civilization】?
So, everyone, if this is a foolish act, then I am willing to be a foolish act.
Since there is a lost path ahead, the quest is endless; this is 【Truth】.
And I am 【Truth】!"
As soon as the words fell, the universe roared.
"Boom—"
Only to see a beam of bright light shooting straight into the sky, and then the stars scattered across the boundless sky. A hole was opened in the "firmament" of the void; the sky of this world...
Looks like it's about to collapse.
