Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2452 The Prophet is Dead (58)

Look at this, that's what taste is.

Despite only meeting twice, Clown clearly realized which name better represented his true nature at that moment.

Fu Qian was quite satisfied with the title, and it seemed that the final showdown was about to take place.

Betting on the last five numbers?
As the mastermind behind the mastermind, his words were surprisingly convincing.

Just now, the clown casually stopped Ah-Wei's actions, preventing his mission from failing.

Although he clearly doesn't need to be grateful.

The desire to avoid ending so quickly stems from a desire for a higher level of enjoyment; in fact, it's a two-way journey.

If you lack patience or have poor taste, you might just lock onto the Angel of Death and unleash his full power, and the Joker might not be interested in taking the gamble.

"Okay, what's the bet?"

He readily agreed, making no attempt to hide his anticipation before paying.

"Don't worry, it's definitely something you're familiar with."

Without even asking about the details, the clown agreed, laughing even more heartily, and even emphasizing the fairness of the agreement.

"Then you have to stand up first."

The next moment, he pointed to the area under Fu Qian's buttocks.

……

I knew that the things I brought for my old friend to sit on wouldn't be simple.

The clown was referring to the scary gift box, the one that had been sitting under his butt all along.

The final gift was given from the very beginning, but can fools simply remain oblivious to it?
Regarding this maneuver, Fu Qian said he could appreciate the deeper meaning behind it, and even said that sitting in it was quite comfortable.

The situation is now very clear. Awei's countdown just now was not a problem. The arrival of Eternal Night has reached a critical point and could be crossed at any moment.

However, considering their containment target, there is a considerable probability that it would mean direct failure.

There's even a significant chance that, given that level of control, Ah Wei could kick him, an outsider, out of the country.

In short, at that very last moment, the real mastermind pressed pause, inviting him to gamble and decide the outcome.

Furthermore, from the clown's narration, we can learn that as the plan progresses, he seems to be gradually approaching the will of "Unseen Hill," or rather, the will of Ji Feng.

To some extent, he not only imitated Yuan Fang's posture, but also played the role of a dark prophet himself.

This also explains why he could restrain the demigods with a mere gesture; after all, being corrupted makes one three times stronger, something Yuan Fang couldn't do.

Unfortunately, what he experienced seemed less than satisfactory.

"I am looking forward."

While pondering, Fu Qian stood up and quietly observed the clown's actions.

The latter didn't waste any time at all, and the next moment he started turning the lever next to the box, even making a gesture of waiting for the answer.

Snapped--

Without much suspense, the top of the box suddenly opened after about three seconds.

"Can anyone tell me... what's going on?"

However, what rushed out was not some ghost face, snake head, or even a bunny girl, but a cold, questioning voice.

It even sounds really familiar—Akasha, the Spider Queen?

……

Indeed.

It only took half a second to confirm my identity before I made the payment.

On the one hand, I had just met him and his voice was still very clear in my memory; on the other hand, his face matched up.

Yes, we met again, though he seemed a bit condescending.

But inside the completely open box, there was nothing terrifying hidden; instead, it appeared to be a miniature building.

Even though there are obstructions at the top of the building, you can still clearly see the scene inside.

The voice we just heard came from a figure inside the building. So, was the Joker's earlier comment about something "familiar" actually a double entendre?

Not only did they sit under their own backsides for so long, but the key figures in the story were also acquaintances.

"I also want to know."

And it wasn't just one acquaintance.

Akasha's question wasn't one of looking up at the heavens.

Clearly unaware of the two observers above her, she questioned another character who, like her, had become part of the box.

Almost immediately, it was Crystal, who had been searching for her, who asked the same question.

I was just wondering why Holler came alone and where Crystal went, and now it seems I have the answer.

Although Crystal didn't seem too happy, going inside wasn't her intention.

"You went there specifically to catch it?"

While marveling at the wonder, he confirmed with the clown before paying.

"Yes, I think you might get more enjoyment out of it if the people are more familiar with them."

The clown admitted it without batting an eye, as if he had casually picked up two crickets.

"Why...are you here?"

Even three.

The place they were in was a slightly narrow passage, and when Crystal asked the question, she was clearly deliberately keeping her distance from Akasha on the other end.

However, before the latter could reply, she had already turned around and questioned another version of herself, who was further away behind her.
Indeed, although she is graceful and her face doesn't quite resemble crystal, Fu Qian said that she is an acquaintance and he even named her Amber not long ago.

The Joker seems to have put a lot of thought into this bet.

……

"how are you feeling?"

The sight of those three together would undoubtedly be extraordinary.

From a truly detached perspective, the Joker casually asked Fu Qian for his thoughts after watching the film.

"What special side effects might occur when crystal and amber come into contact?"

Of course, he wouldn't be so pointless as to boast about his achievements; Fu Qian knew that the clown wanted to know his opinion on the current situation.

After a quick glance, Fu Qian offered a certain guess.

The Joker's carefully prepared gamble must be interesting enough to be worthwhile.

While he said that choosing someone he knew was to consider his own feelings, that may not be the only reason.

After all, several of his acquaintances happen to have some issues.

I talked to Amber about this behind the door. She was clearly hesitant about the possibility of meeting Crystal and was unwilling to face it.

At this moment, one could sense something inhuman and strange about that face.

Crystal is also an example.

Crystal seems to have some understanding of amber, knowing exactly where it comes from.

On the other hand, the fact that the other party was standing right in front of him clearly had a significant impact.

It wasn't just that she was questioning the meaning of life; her entire demeanor seemed to be changing.

"Hehe, that's right. The state you saw before was almost their most stable coexistence state. As long as they meet, a dominant one will inevitably emerge, although it's not so certain who it will be."

As expected, the clown immediately confirmed it and explained what was happening inside the box.

"So you're betting on who will come out on top?"

Before giving his reply, he seemed to have a sudden realization.

"Do not."

The clown shook his head.

"Bet on who Akasha will help to take the lead."
