Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2455 Dark Knight
The clown has prepared such a wonderful show; how could we, as guests, not do something in return?

For a betting game, it's not enough to just be perfect; it can be elevated to a higher level.

For example, instead of cheating, you could simply kill the person across the gambling table.

The Calamity Eyes, unleashed with full force by the King of Mechanical Abandonment, are something even opponents of the same rank dare not easily taste. The Joker, who doesn't even possess divinity, was instantly reduced to ashes.

"Hahaha……"

However, an interesting scene unfolded: amidst the scorching flames, despite being completely empty, there seemed to be a force stubbornly trying to piece together a human form, even emitting a faint, familiar laugh.

It brings back memories of the time when the Joker was being scorched by Stos's fiery rage in the bar, and he was smiling just as contentedly.

Amidst the sighs, the laughter quickly subsided, as if plunging into an abyss.

But the tenacity fueled by that madness finally gave way, and not only did the human form gradually disintegrate, but it also seemed as if the entire space-time was being affected.

Gray, white, and black—everything in the darkness seemed like a membrane stretched to its limit, which was then suddenly torn open.

A faint, yet distinctly real, glow emerged from it, signifying the transition between day and night.

Looks like it's time for everyone to get up.

The screen flashed by quickly as I was admiring the view, and before paying, I made sure to take one last look at the betting game.

The Spider Queen, who had seemingly secured the victory and had everything under control, appeared to have suffered a tremendous shock. In that instant, she abandoned the two combatants and fled in panic.

Off-court tactics really work; this game seems to have turned into a draw again.

……

It seems that Yongye really did have Ji Feng's idea.

The clown certainly couldn't withstand the outbreak of the calamity, but there were still some who could put up a fight on the Hill of the Unseen.

In the end, only Ji Feng remained, frantically clinging to life amidst the destruction.

The clown was right; his existence represented Ji Feng's strong will to plunge the entire Unfinished Hill into eternal night.

Interestingly, this person's condition stabilized for a short while after the last treatment?
Although strictly speaking, He is turning in a positive direction.

When truth replaces falsehood, the self finds peace.

Returning to the dark warehouse, Fu Qian tapped his fingers on the handrail, silently summarizing his extra gains.

Completing the mission is one thing, but the information gained from this trip to Unseen Hill can be described as extremely fruitful.

Theoretically speaking, this mission is not too difficult.

Or, after transforming into the mechanical king of the abandoned prison, most of the missions become relatively easy.

This is also reasonable. As beings who theoretically stand at the pinnacle of the extraordinary, if their combat power is guaranteed, it would be too deliberate for them to stumble and fall like before.

Specifically, the containment conditions for this event, ending the darkest night, are not without the risk of failure.

For example, as mentioned earlier, some people only fixate on the Angel of Death and relentlessly strangle it.

In that situation, the Joker would most likely not make a final bet, but would instead quickly lead the conversation to a shrewd victory.

After all, the more intense one's actions, the more likely it is to trigger the appearance of gray dust.

As for wiping out the entire criminal gang?

It's an idea, but it's not guaranteed to work.

Whether it's the Angel of Death or the Clown, they both essentially believe they represent Ji Feng's will. This isn't a quest chain in a game; why should killing one of them necessarily mean the end of the Darkest Night?
Fu Qian never had such naive and beautiful wishes. The reason he didn't kill the Joker earlier was actually to increase the causal connection between the two.

The Angel of Death is dead, but there's still the Joker. If the Joker is dead, why can't Grandpa Ji Feng find someone else to continue to carry out his will?
Unless the Joker is the very symbol of this will, and is irreplaceable.

……

Simply put, the goal is to push things forward as much as possible, so that the clown who is in charge of everything becomes, in Ji Feng's eyes, more and more, synonymous with the obsession that night is falling.

Only by executing the Joker under these circumstances can we truly strike at the key point and complete the mission.

As the saying goes, fatten them up before killing them.

Judging from the task results and the final situation, it was quite successful.

Grandpa Ji did his best to preserve the concept of the clown, and after failing, the mission was completed, and the darkest night came to an end.

The false and chaotic Unseen Hill still exists, and it is believed that the "sleeping" indigenous people will awaken one by one.

But to be honest, whether that causal connection could be established was not entirely certain until the very last moment.

After all, the concept of "darkest night" is rather vague in its definition. Does it refer to the "eternal night" plan, Ji Feng's determination to bring darkness, or simply the unseen hill behind the door?

As for why the warehouse is so unreliable, issuing a task riddle to this extent?
Simply put, the one who says "I'm unreliable" before paying is yourself.

There was actually a simple solution to this task, but I didn't choose it—I just destroyed the Hill of the Unseen behind the door.

Wasn't darkness about to descend? We'll cut away all the darkness for you, a true radical cure.

Even those with brilliant abilities, like tyrants, are naturally suited to doing that kind of thing.

And that door was so easy to find.

In short, regardless of professionalism, as long as you have brute strength, and then run behind the door to unleash your full power, the mission will be easy to complete.

The key is that it's too easy.

This task was not only somewhat rushed, but the warehouse felt so deliberate, almost like an open secret, designed to make him destroy the unseen hill behind the door—which was theoretically Ji Feng's rational side.

……

why?
The warehouse neither wanted Ji Feng to be corrupted by the Mother of the Gospel and become a channel for the latter to break down barriers, nor did it want Ji Feng's will to calm down and just brainstorm there every day.

Isn't the treatment of this former employee a bit cruel? It gives off a feeling of being a tool that's hard to shake off.

That compassion arose spontaneously when I entered the room and sat quietly in the dark to hear the terms of containment.

The second reaction was that they were very satisfied with their own curiosity.

If it weren't for my curiosity about the pattern of mission objectives being issued in the warehouse, which led me to sit in the dark for a while, would the containment condition still be "Ending the Darkest Night"?

Could it lead to me "ruining the place behind the door"?
Being vague creates more opportunities to take advantage of others.

Even in the end, it truly gained meaning.

I achieved my goal without completely destroying Brother Ji Feng's rational side.

While doctors are compassionate, leaving a lingering ailment behind might seem like a way to rip people off, it's still better than a complete frontal lobe resection.

Of course, to find out the specifics, we need to refer to the warehouse's summary, which is what I'm waiting for.

I've been sitting here for a while now, and the warehouse summary is proving to be an unprecedentedly difficult process—
