Chapter Fifty-Eight: I Want to Be a God
New Grotesque Town, where a forced narrative domain is disintegrating, being unraveled by its owner.
Because the "judgment" is over, the gods in the audience are leaving, most of them are equivalent to watching a secret scene and learning the truth about the fall of a "powerful god", while the other part is to implement this truth, they are going to hunt down the true god of deception, stealing and hiding.
Tang Qi appeared at this time, standing in front of the black shadow who was still impotent and furious.
As a victim, he obtained the right to dispose of the "Brannigan clone", and the original two layers of divine skin should also be used as trophies and belonged to Tang Qi.
However, he did not do this, and directly returned the corpses of the two worthy gods to the "Mother Worm God" and the "Earth Camp" respectively.
Gatis, who presided over the trial and read out the final verdict, the divine body that could not be seen directly, the face covered by the blindfold turned to Tang Qi, and said goodbye with a smile: "Goodbye, then, the land of thorns." ”
After speaking, he seemed to hesitate for a moment, but he still continued:
"If you need help, call me by name and I can talk to you and the ...... There is a dispute between the adjudicators, but I cannot guarantee the end, and His person is already higher than me. ”
Tang Qi was slightly stunned when he heard this, any god could see that he was in conflict with the "fate"?
But soon, Tang Qi reacted.
Gattis is not an ordinary god, although he is not yet a master, but even in the ranks of powerful gods, he is at the top.
That's why, when the gods had a dispute, they usually sought out Gattis to adjudicate rather than the goddess of order of the Light faction, or some other relevant authority.
As a neutral faction, Gattis was able to spit out this sentence, apparently because of the relationship between Donchi and Raphael.
"Good!"
Without any hesitation, Tang Qi responded, and then saw the blindfolded Divine Goddess disappear into the narrative realm.
The main drama unfolded very quickly, and it ended very quickly.
Branigan, as a "powerful deity", was not supposed to end up like this.
He has eight layers of divine skin, and with the power of the body, it is equivalent to a weak god system to some extent.
If the two sides collide head-on, Donch's win rate is not too high.
It's just a pity that Britneygan is greedy and jealous, and he is already in charge of "deception." The Thief and the Hidden One" are divinity, so he will not make the decision to attack Don Qi head-on.
From the moment he chose Cathy Chloe as a pawn, trying to replace Don Qi with a method that has been successful many times, His end was preordained.
His doppelganger, roaring and murmuring.
"How can this be?"
"It's clear that I'm hiding, I'm deceiving in the shadows, I'm laying a chess piece, I'm waiting for the harvest...... Most of the skins I wore on my body were stolen in this way, so why can't they work against the last despicable liar who was just starting to become a god?"
“...... It's authority!"
"Tell me, despicable deceitful, tell me, what is your sovereign authority, how the hell do you see through my existence, except for that blind bitch of Gattis, even some of the masters can't find out about my hiding, my stealing, how the hell did you do it?"
......
Branigan still can't come to terms with his inexplicable failure, and he's desperate for the answer.
However, all he gained was a calm gaze from Tang Qi.
The answer is simple, it is "all things are understood", and it is a transformed eye that originated from a member of the Origin Protoss.
But Tang Qi naturally won't tell Branigan the answer, and wouldn't it be a good ending to die with the doubts that haunt the soul?
In a moment's time, Tang Qi silently opened the furnace portal.
Control the "Black Shadow Man", step by step towards the portal that spewed thin flames of light.
Inside, the furnace roared in satisfaction.
Brannigan's doppelganger was tormented by the curse and melted by the flames of the furnace, his dark face with only eyes and mouth simulating a hideous, tearful expression, realizing that this despicable deceitful did not intend to tell him the answer, even if he was on the verge of death.
It is difficult for any evil god to maintain peace in front of the furnace.
He went into a state of madness and cursed at Donch, "You wicked, hypocritical creature, you will never make it to the ......"
"Shut up!"
Before Braniggan's curse was officially finished, he saw that inside the open flame portal, the majestic furnace divine power poured out, dragging Braniggan, who was completely unable to resist, into it.
His last words came to an abrupt end.
"A disgusting thief wants to curse my Covenant Keeper too, huh. ”
"Remember the standard this time, don't think about feeding me garbage again, I will give you the most generous gift in return. ”
A familiar roar from the furnace rang out, and before it fell, the portal to harvest the rations dissipated into the narrative realm.
Tang Qi smiled a little, the furnace is still the furnace.
When it was all over, and not caring that the Crucible was going to choose the best gift to give him back, Tang Qi thought about it and returned to the New Grotesque Town's own mayor's narrative domain.
In the middle of the new grotesque town, in a strange and majestic building that seemed to have no end, constantly superimposed, some palace-like room.
Tang Qi sat upright in the Bakerfast chair, frowning slightly.
Originally, after ending a major event involving "powerful gods", Tang Qi should more or less summarize the harvest.
But this time, the gains were meager.
Donch defeated a quarter of Branigan, plus four layers of divine skins, the first two layers were sacrificed to the furnace along with the doppelgangers, and the last two layers were stripped off and returned to the bitter master.
Aside from the return gift promised by the Crucible, Tang Qi, who used a lot of authority, and even the privileges of his position, had little else to gain.
But Tang Qi didn't care, this time he solved it perfectly.
"Coveted by a powerful deity who wields the power of deception and stealing, the longer it drags on, the worse the consequences. ”
"Cathy and the others detonated these early, allowing me to quickly set up the trap and finally send Branigan to a dead end, which is also a good thing. ”
Thoughts flickered, Tang Qi still frowned, and looked at the group of witches who were obediently kneeling below.
If you just look at the appearance, this is a group of beautiful and well-behaved girls, which makes it difficult to feel bad.
But the truth is that this group of shrine maidens formed a cult that worshiped him madly, robbed "John the Dream Eater", and dared to borrow the divine power of nine gods, including Brannigan, the Seven Gods, and the God of Tyrants.
It is more appropriate to say that it is borrowed, and its practical "deception" is more appropriate.
It was very successful in the early stage, but if it was not for Tang Qi's intervention, the ending of this group of girls would be extremely tragic.
If it was an unrelated human being, or if it was indeed a group of female liars, Tang Qi would not have paid attention to it.
But the group of witches led by Cathy Chloe have passed the "heart and soul test", and there is no abnormality under his knowing gaze, and this group of girls is indeed his fanatical followers.
This gave Tang Qi a bit of a headache, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Of my many subordinates and dependents, such as Amanda, Tyranny, and the Pied Piper, are undoubtedly the most worry-free, and the six dependents, as well as the new ones that are constantly being added because of the automatic operation of the fantasy realm, are strong and pious, and will not cause any trouble. ”
"The Crucible Legion doesn't have to worry about it, after gaining law enforcement rights, they can expand wildly, and they don't have to worry about the tragic end of being besieged by many cultists again. ”
"As for the group of children at Merida Special Education School, with Macaulay and Eva and others sheltering, plus the Castle Bureau on the side, except for this incident, it has always been calm. ”
"The additional dreamy family, Olga Nikolaevna, who has the hope of ascending to the gods, is holding the 'Golden Compass' that I have given her, collecting fragments of the Secret Book of Immortality while carrying out her own dragon slaying mission. ”
"But these shrine maidens ......"
Tang Qi didn't need to look at it, and he knew that none of the seemingly well-behaved girls below were actually peaceful, especially the leader Cathy Chloe.
They are also devout followers, and Cathy and other girls are not following the "Pseudo-Dream Master", as they know from the honorific names they recite that they are following Tang Qi himself.
Another image of Don Qi, to be exact.
The "Lord" in their eyes is incomparably kind, loving, adventurous, and unimaginably wise.
And in the hearts of Stan Dupressi, Walter Cranston, Helen Caroline and other dreamy dependents, dreams dominate countless cannots, he crosses the boundary between real and unreal, can make all fantasy real, is the unseepable, unknowable, unfathomable majesty.
It seems that the latter is more divine, and Cathy Chloe and other witches follow like a charismatic and knowledgeable explorer?
Tang Qi pondered for a few seconds, and finally smiled.
Fanatical believers are fanatical believers, even some crazy divine creatures, or demigods who are good at managing themselves, although Tang Qi has not really ascended to the gods, but those unbelievable achievements, and the subsequent effects caused, attracted some followers, it is indeed not surprising.
It's just that, because it was a group of witches who were not very peaceful, Tang Qi spent a little time thinking about how to place them.
Before speaking, Tang Qi first asked the group of girls what they thought.
"My lord, I want to be the second great polymath of the Federation. ”
"Ah, I want to be the strongest witch in the infinite mystery. ”
"Great Lord, I am very interested in the relics of various civilizations, the land of the fall of all souls, and I want to be the strongest adventurer recognized by the gods. ”
"My lord, I want to be like you, a transcendent child and a strange protector. ”
"I want to be a god!"
The last sentence sounded, and there was a moment of silence.
The shrine maidens looked at the leader at the same time, and it was obvious that they also knew that only their own leader would be the first to say this, and there would be follow-ups.
It was indeed Cathy Chloe who spoke, and the girl had no different color, and her eyes were full of determination:
"My lord, Cathy wants to ascend to God in the future, only after ascending to God, can I gain a long life, can I fulfill my promise, I will follow the earth you have trodden, the sky you have wandered, and the footprints, light and shadow you have left behind...... I will also breathe the air you breathe, the world you have seen, the life you have encountered. ”
"As I said, I won't rest until time has taken my bones away. ”
