"Delta and Ipsilon failed. Gamma looked up at the clock on the basement wall, where the hour hand had passed a full twelve hours from the scheduled time.

The death of the divine envoy is not unexpected, and being an enemy of the world-builder is itself fraught with unforeseen risks. As long as they can complete their mission, death is not a big deal, and as long as the time is long enough, sooner or later they will be reborn in the realm of the gods.

But for twelve hours, nothing had changed in the world.

In the imaginary space full of magic, it didn't even feel a ripple, let alone the entire realm showing signs of collapsing. This can only show that the two of them failed to complete the planned plan and kill the logical consciousness named "Jieluo".

"It's a pity, but we still have our own tasks to complete. Beta fused the last five cores into her body and opened her hands violently.

I saw a flash of red light, and then a bright red erosion crack appeared in the middle of the basement out of thin air.

"The situation is still irreversible, and as long as we can achieve our goal, there is a silver lining to turn things around. Let's go, the magic here will soon run out, and the overlapping state of the two realms will be restored, and even martial artists may be able to detect our traces. ”

It didn't even guess about the course of the battle and the reasons for the defeat, as the messenger of the gods, it would not be frustrated by a momentary defeat, nor would it care about the consequences of defeat, the only thing it cared about was to do its best to fulfill the will of the gods.

Gamma nodded silently.

Beta turned, the first to step into the breach.

This is no ordinary erosion.

It is a "passage" that has been established after spending a lot of energy and the core of the Demon. Connected to it is another erosion rift, which leads to the final battlefield set up for the main creators.

Gamma followed, and was about to enter the passage when footsteps suddenly sounded at the top of the staircase.

It froze slightly, and tilted its head to look at the source of the sound - it was blocked by magic, no detection methods worked, and there were a large number of fallen demons guarding outside, so it was impossible for anyone to enter.

Soon, the form of the comer appeared in the darkness.

"How could it be you?" said Gamma, puzzled.

The other party was none other than Epsilon disguised as a human.

According to the plan, it should be responsible for holding back the rescuers and buying enough time for Delta. If the latter does not succeed, it is even less likely that Ipsilon will survive.

Instead of an answer, however, it received an arm with five fingers together.

This arm pierced through its chest with lightning speed!

The mask fell to the ground with a clatter, revealing a spinning astrolabe beneath the hood.

Gamma looked at each other in disbelief, his consciousness quickly becoming sluggish, "What are you......?" Why ......"

"There's a difference. Epsilon withdrew his hand and let Gamma fall on top of him," ...... You and Arashi. ”

"You...... Want to betray the gods?"

After a moment of silence, Epsilon whispered, "Who is the god?"

"Yes—" Gamma opened his mouth, but his voice kept repeating, like a stuck gramophone, and finally he couldn't come up with a definitive answer.

"That's right...... We've never thought about this question before, so we can't answer it. Ever since I killed Arashi, I've had a lot of thoughts that have been stuck in my head all along, but they've been deliberately closed by something. And that included this: Did Arashi really betray the gods?" Epsilon muttered in its ear, "and the conclusion is that I don't know. An oracle is the embodiment of the will of the gods, and if we violate that, can we still be considered oracles?"

Gamma didn't answer, or it could no longer speak.

"The next task will require two people to complete, so it's the same for everyone, and if you have a chance to meet the gods, please ask me about it. ”

Epsilon opened his robe and wrapped his companion whole, and after a wriggling moment, it completely transformed into a gamma form.

It then picked up the mask and put it on its face, stepping into the erosion rift.

Beyond the warped passage of magic, Epsilon opened her eyes again, and was greeted by a different scene.

The barrel-like structure of reinforced concrete stretches from the bottom to the top to the end of the view, resembling a majestic tower.

The inside of the tower is surrounded by a layer of cantilevered walkways and connected by a shuttle elevator.

The aisles were evenly spaced with countless squares, and it knew that the things locked in those squares were the targets of their journey—the magical cores that the world had stolen from the realm of the gods.

With the help of these cores, the oracle has enough power to lay a trap to kill the Creator.

"Why is it so slow. Beta glanced back at it, "Let's get started when you're ready." ”

"Of course, leave it to me. Epsilon replied calmly.

......

For the rest of the day, Roland lay on his desk and sighed.

He was overwhelmed by a series of unexpected accidents in the dream world, and waking up did not mean relief, whether it was the fragments of memories brought by the fusion astrolabe or the detailed conversation with Vakiris, either of which gave him a headache.

Especially the former.

It is undoubtedly the only source of information before entering the Bottomless Realm and confronting the gods. From Arashi's words, he also knew that the importance of this information was extraordinary, but he pondered for a long time, but he couldn't figure out the internal connection between what he had seen before and the scene in the second act.

And that line of writing also made him extremely concerned.

- "From this moment on, gravity is no longer the most admirable force in this world. 」

Why gravity?

Among the four forces in the universe, gravity has nothing special except for its large range. In terms of application alone, it is not as good as electromagnetic force, and in terms of strength, it is far inferior to strong interaction force, precisely because of the large macroscopic scale, it is often the basic force that civilization pays attention to, which also means that it has the least mystery. If you think about it in a conventional way, it is difficult to think of it as the most admirable force other than the King James Decree.

As for the latter, after the Nightmare Lord expressed his initial intention to cooperate, the two returned to the high-end restaurant where they first met for a full and frank exchange, and once again attracted the attention of other customers.

According to Vakiris, once it confirms that the situation on the front line is true, it will change the goal of "winning the War of the Divine Will" to "completely abort the War of the Divine Will", which also includes convincing the Lord of the Celestial Dome to assist humanity in reaching the Bottomless Realm.

The benefits of this cooperation are obviously much greater than extracting information from the other party alone, but the problem is that whether the Lord of the Sky is willing to be persuaded is another matter. What's more, there is more than one devil's king, and there is a king above the king, and whether Hekzod alone can decide the movement of the Western Front army is always an uncertain factor.
