Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2573 Messages and Toys

The path to divinity is broken, and ashes have formed a ladder.

Senior Ji Feng, it seems you still get a share, doesn't it?
Some things, if you don't make connections, are fine, but once you do, they can have far-reaching implications.

The last time I saw "the physical containment of thought" was when a group of court ladies were all beheaded, and their heads eventually converged into an exaggeratedly swollen brain.

Later, when he was invited to the Laria family's birthday celebration at the House of Earl, he even took the opportunity to prove that it was the same place.

Of course, based on this alone, it seems that the scene before us is suspected to be related to that ancient family, but we did not see the figure of Old Master Ji.

But don't forget the final find in the Bronze Lady: that overly simple headband, which is suspected to be an item that only those with the Ji family bloodline can activate and receive information from.

Furthermore, the research findings at the Unseen Hill in the previous mission further suggest that it was highly likely part of Old Master Ji's contingency plan.

Most importantly, the Bronze Lady appeared in the world he originally lived in. This alone can almost eliminate many competitors for Old Master Ji in the question of who did it.

In short, we were still wondering why the information in the headband told us to come to the Ash Sea, but we didn't see any related traces in this place.

As a result, Old Master Ji couldn't resist making his presence felt in the end.

The old man has been here before?

Although this coincidence alone cannot rule out the possibility that the person was not present, but rather received some important information.

But this doesn't affect the most crucial question: what was the purpose of the old man's message?

To guide future generations?
At first glance, it seems like common sense, but the more information you have about this, the more you realize the instrumental nature of the concept of offspring for Mr. Ji.

It is highly likely that no traditional genetic material was involved, and the parent-child relationship between Ji and Him appears to have been forcibly designated.

It wasn't just one family that was designated; another prominent family, the Yuan family, seemed to have had a similar experience.

So rather than saying the old man was working for the benefit of his children and grandchildren, it would be more accurate to say that this "bloodline" was the means to achieve a certain goal.

Is the key to saving Him from His predicament here?
If we look at it from a more utilitarian perspective, this seems to be a more likely motivation.

After several encounters, it became clear that although that person could almost be called the Lord of the Deep, his situation was not good; he was practically a warehouse-certified lunatic.

At this point, it would be meaningful to seek help from outside sources, even from the current warehouse manager.

That message, to some extent, was a behind-the-scenes maneuver by two employees, bypassing the warehouse.

Don't forget the warehouse's attitude in this regard, which was also subtly reflected in the last mission—it neither wants Ji Feng to be taken advantage of by the Mother of the Gospel, nor does it want Him to be completely sober; it would be best if He just calmly continued to go mad.

The fact that Lady Bronze remained in her original world seems to be the best way to minimize interference, vividly demonstrating the spirit of struggling to survive by any means necessary...

The thought process is quite smooth, but there is still a problem. From the moment I arrived until now, apart from the amazing operation of the Creator, I haven't seen any trace of the Dark Gray Descent.

Judge, Radiant Rainbow, Night Keeper... What earth-shattering plan can the old man pull off amidst this complex web of forces, snatching chestnuts from the fire?
Before submitting the payment, he said that even putting himself in that shoes seemed a bit too difficult.

Or perhaps I'm just being cynical and judging others by my own standards? Was the old man truly just using this method to enlighten future generations, asking for nothing in return?

There was no deliberate attempt to belittle the integrity of the ancients. While pondering various possibilities, Fu Qian's gaze fell on the brain that had expanded many times over, finally ensuring that the Creator of Wisdom would not be neglected again.

"Do you feel like changing your surname to Ji?"

...It doesn't seem like it.

Although the question had touched on the level of household registration, it still failed to resonate with the creator at first glance.

His appearance at this moment is undoubtedly unique; to describe it specifically, his skull is both blooming with flowers and bearing abundant fruit.

Inside the split skull, the numerous brain jellyfish tentacles contracted, all struggling to wriggle into the grooves that were now completely disproportionate to the body.

The only difference between this scene and the one I saw in the Bronze Lady is that it was already fully mature, to the point that all the other unnecessary parts had dried up.

Is this the only kind of question you use your brain for?

Just as Fu Qian was trying to use metaphors, the Creator finally responded, though he seemed somewhat unable to tolerate the question's absurdity.

“I admit you’re really extraordinary. Those obstacles ahead are probably child’s play for you… Including that person, who is more like a toy to you than a tool to be used.”

"But the more you do this, the less I understand your behavior."

However, even though He was incredibly arrogant, He still gave the opponent a high evaluation, demonstrating His discerning eye.

"What's the point of getting entangled with such a worm-like character? Even if your worm wins, besides wasting your time, does it really bring you any enjoyment?"

As if to prove his words, Afei, who rushed up again at the same time, was blocked by another barrier, which was quite apt to describe as a futile flying insect.

"sure."

Fu Qian undoubtedly noticed this scene as well, but he still nodded naturally at that moment.

"I understand, since that's how it is..."

In just a few words, the Creator of Wisdom seemed to have completely digested the wisdom of the ancients, and his mind had basically calmed down.

Although the frenzied symphony triggered by that net did not stop but instead became even more intense.

He seemed unwilling to persuade Fu Qian any further, and instead made a peculiar gesture by pushing his palm flat against A Fei's.

But Afei, who had been fighting to the death in a frenzied manner, suddenly stopped.

……

Oh?
It must be said that compared to the terrible lines before, this move finally showed some of the demeanor of someone in a position of power.

Ah Fei is now at least in the category of a divine being, and his state is one of madness and righteousness, so achieving this effect is not easy.

What's even more unusual is that just moments before, people were condemning the idea of ​​indulging in frivolous pursuits, but then this person actually joined in.

They even brought out an insect; are they really planning a cricket fight?
That's right. Fu Qian said that the reason why Ah Fei suddenly stopped was that there was a new Ah Fei over there.

It is invisible yet has a shadow, standing in stark contrast to me from afar.

shadow?

This scene immediately brings to mind the cleanup targets that Moore's on-duty personnel had to face from the very beginning of the Deep Dive.

After countless hardships, has Brother Afei finally returned to his old profession?
