Becoming God starting with the word game in Lord of Mysteries

"It's all question marks."

This "upside-down demon" is even more outrageous than the "rose mummy".

Li Qianyi was astonished.

"Could He be a 'projection' of the true God?"

"The divine body left behind by the Demon King 'Fabuti'?"

During the final battle, Fabuti's spirit and will were consumed along with the master of the Dark Lodge.

But no one is certain whether He had any remnants of His resurrection.

But now it seems that even if He has recovered to some extent, His current situation is not particularly good.

[Due to the protection of the shadows, you are immune to this divine influence.]

Are you planning to go forward and take a look, or choose to continue leaving the Demon Palace?

Li Qianyi chose to leave directly.

You don't know why this demon is hanging here, but you understand that it has a terrifying origin.

Even if the opponent is hanging upside down in this palace, they are still an existence you are far from being able to deal with.

You fled the demon's dungeon in terror.

The misty forest at night is extremely dangerous.

However, thanks to the protection of the 'Eternal Darkness Spell,' the terrifying monsters roaming the Misty Forest completely ignored you.

You slowly head towards "Peaceful Town," disappearing into the shadows.

But then, in that thin mist, you suddenly see a voluptuous and beautiful woman, draped only in a white veil, walking slowly through the forest, like a fairy in the mist.

Are you planning to go up there and have a one-night stand with her, or just go back to town?

"What a joke! After a one-night stand, who will give birth to the child, me or her?"

Li Qianyi felt a chill run down his spine.

Although no information was provided, he had a strange feeling that this woman was the "Lady Eleanor".

[You chose to ignore Lady Eleanor's body; you have desecrated the Fallen Mother Goddess; you have gained 10 units of blasphemy power.]

"So many?"

Upon seeing the exaggerated reward of blasphemous power, Li Qianyi was first taken aback, then frowned.

You have triggered the "Divine Commandment".

The Lost One, "Earn a Little Bit of Money" (Sequence 7 - The Corruptor), challenges you to a holy duel.

[Duel Type: Versus]

"Indeed, this level of 'blasphemy' is enough to trigger the 'divine commandment'."

Li Qianyi looked at the game information.

This "Lost One" is Sequence 7 "Corruptor" of the Decaying Kings pathway.

But that's not the main point. The key point is that this duel is different from the ones before.

It's not a quiz on mysticism, but a brutal, hand-to-hand combat.

Li Qianyi frowned slightly.

He has an unparalleled advantage in occult competitions, but he has no experience in direct combat.

He looked at the game interface; his opponent had already begun preparing for the match.

【"Earn a Small Goal" uses the sealed item "Wrathful Gauntlets", increasing attack power by 30, adding 2 Guardian Charms, temporarily increasing armor by 20 points. If the opponent uses 2 Strength Charms, temporarily increasing attack power by 20 points. If the opponent uses a Life Charm, temporarily increasing health by 20 points.】

You obtained the other party's information.

[Earn a small goal (Sequence 7 - The Corruptor)]

[Rank: Sequence 7]

【HP: 83】

Armor: 54

Attack Power: 84

"It seems like he has a lot of dueling experience."

Looking at the information notification that popped up, Li Qianyi knew that this person was no ordinary individual.

It's unclear whether they are pure cult members or casual players who took on a job from "The Primordial God".

Despite his lack of experience, Li Qianyi's current combat strength is still formidable.

He directly unleashed the 'Shattered Shadow Veil' in his domain, activated the 'Shepherd of All Beings', and wielded the 'Shepherd's Scythe'.

Due to the 'Eternal Darkness Spell,' your opponent cannot obtain your combat information.

You have lost 210 points of Divine Faith.

[You used "Shattered Shadow Veil" (Old World Ruins), you used "Shepherd of All Beings" (Old World Divine Spell)]

You gain an additional 900 health, 400 armor, and 400 attack damage.

You are using the 'Shepherd's Scythe'

You gain an additional 75 attack points.

[Both sides are ready, the battle begins]

[You slash at "Make a small profit" and the opponent is defeated.]

[Battle Ended]

[You have defeated the homeless and 'earned a small fortune' (Sequence 7 - The Corruptor)]

You have obtained collateral: 500 Divine Faith.

The battle ended so quickly that Li Qianyi didn't know what to say.

It felt like I was driving a heavy truck and crashed into a speed bump.

Haha, it seems like everyone is trying their best to survive.

He is, and so is the other person.

Li Qianyi looked at his phone.

[You may choose to retaliate. Due to the gaze of the 'Lord of Mysteries,' the opponent cannot refuse this sacred duel.]

【no】

Li Qianyi was in a hurry to complete the task and didn't have time to waste with him.

[The Divine Commandments End]

You returned to Anning Town unharmed.

Only here can you feel a brief sense of safety.

But you know, this safety is only temporary. After the next operation, the "Great Mother" will once again cast her gaze upon us.

So, what will you do next, you who have lost your homeland?

Li Qianyi chose to go directly to the theater to deliver the task, lest things get complicated.

When you arrived at the theater, it was already 9 p.m.

The hut next door still had a kerosene lamp lit, as if it were waiting for someone's return.

You gently knock on the door, and instead of the man with the receding hairline, a young girl opens it.

She looked at you with a hint of wariness and suspicion, asking what you wanted.

Did you hand the "worn-out pocket watch" to the little girl?

【Yes】

The little girl was initially puzzled, but when she saw the silver-white pocket watch with vine and leaf patterns, she froze on the spot, stiffly taking it from your hand like a wooden doll.

A man with a receding hairline walked up from behind, sighed softly, and put his arm around the girl. In the lamplight of the night, the opera that had not yet begun tonight was unfolding.

The hands of the pocket watch have stopped turning, just as time has stopped flowing for someone.

Tell the little girl that it was already damaged when you received it.

But you saw her only press a few buttons on the pocket watch.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock

You heard the soft ticking of the second hand again, as if signaling that time, which had been frozen, was beginning to flow again.

You hear Melissa Moretti sigh softly, "He's still so busy."

[You have some doubts, but Melissa Moretti says she wants to give you something. Will you accept it?]

Li Qianyi took a deep breath and selected "Yes".

You have received 1 expired theater ticket.

As you watch the siblings gradually disappear from the spot, it's as if they've completed a predetermined mission.

They seem to be here, yet they were never here.

You have completed the task "The Regret Hidden in the Play".

You have gained 200 Divine Faith and 2 Blasphemy Power.

Your contribution to the main storyline +10%

Current main story progress: 10%

[For those who have lost their homeland, this is a small step, but also a giant leap that begins to deviate from a predetermined fate.]

"This part is finally finished."

Li Qianyi took a deep breath; now it was time to verify his guess.

He clicked on the entry for "expired theater tickets".

[Expired Theater Ticket: 1/9 of a Miracle. You can use it without any cost to activate the power of the 'Source Castle Avatar' to suppress the Chaos Sea pollution caused by the 'Fourth Blasphemous Slab Fragment'.]

This battle is not over yet, and I will eventually return, just as fallen leaves always return to their roots. But in this long river of time, there is only moving forward, never looking back.
