"But now is not the time to admire it—even if you want to know more from me, this is not the time."

"That's right."

Jing Xueying nodded slightly, she tilted her head and seemed to remember something and raised her right hand which was covered by her long sleeves. Five jade-white fingers emerged from under the sleeves and gently pinched the air.

A 'purple flower umbrella' was dragged out by it, and the umbrella opened with a bang, and the ribbon fell again.

Then she held the umbrella with one hand and glanced at Li Re: "We can't keep Mr. Werewolf and Mr. Priest waiting for too long—"

"Besides that, I also have some things I need to discuss." Li Re added, "Not just for the sake of finishing it off."

"This dungeon mission is far from over."

"Speaking of which, now that the four great ghost messengers have all been dispatched and defeated by us, in this dungeon world, the only one stronger than the four is the 'Judge', right?" Jing Xueying raised her index finger and gently pressed her soft red lips. She also realized what Li Re wanted to discuss: "But next, there are three more ceremonies."

Either the judge has three levels of obstruction.

Or there are other hidden unknown dangers.

Or, there is only one ceremony left that is dangerous.

But no matter which possibility it is...it is necessary to gather the information in everyone's hands and piece together their own thoughts in order to make a more effective deduction.

That’s what Li Re thought.

Only when you understand where the danger is, can you proactively face it.

While the two were talking to each other and preparing to go down the mountain to return to the village, Li Re suddenly stopped!

At this moment, the two people's conversations faded away, and he seemed to realize... the surroundings seemed to have become very quiet.

No, or it shouldn't be said to be quiet.

But silence.

Everything was silent, as if all the voices were suppressed...

Li Re paused and then turned around suddenly!

Jing Xueying, who also realized something was wrong, turned around and was slightly stunned, her pretty face looking even more rosy.

But this time it was real, fiery red.

At this moment, fire truly fell from the sky.

Under the eerie sun.

The fire is raging.

Several shadows walked out from the flames falling from the sky.

A ghost is coming.

But the scorching sun leads the way.

"Patrol the Yang during the day and the Yin at night - the chief judge of the Chacha Division, patrols here."

The sounds of gongs and drums echoed wildly, breaking the momentary silence!

Li Re and Jing Xueying were both stunned. Victor and Tai Bu, who had returned to the village, also turned their heads with slightly changed expressions - they were caught off guard!

Chapter 346: The so-called truth, believe it or not

He patrols the sun during the day and the moon at night, overseeing all things and judging the cause and effect of good and evil.

——"Classic of Mountains and Seas: Judge Chacha"

...

The judge is here.

The figure that emerged from the firelight under the eerie sun at this moment obviously caught the players by surprise.

As the highest-ranking ghost and god in this out-of-control C-level ghost and god copy world, and the only judge above the four great ghost messengers, Li Re and others expected that He should arrive at the next ceremony after nightfall.

Although the actions of ghosts and gods are not restricted by day or night, based on the ritual and the experience of the previous two days, the ghosts and gods should not attack during the day during this ritual.

This also seems to be the 'mechanism'.

But He appeared now—

The figures swaying in the flames were getting closer and closer amidst the roaring sounds. They were walking on a road paved with rainbow light from the eerie sunset. The sunlight was strange, but the approaching shadows were even stranger.

Li Re, standing on the top of the mountain, stopped and narrowed his eyes slightly. Jing Xueying, who had raised the purple flower umbrella again, also stood slenderly between the swaying ribbons of the umbrella and looked at the front side by side with Li Re.

They watched the multiple figures approaching from afar.

I also watched the outline of the figure become clearer as the distance shortened.

There was no doubt that it was a 'ghost', or perhaps a ghost or god. If one did not look closely at it, one would think it was some ancient noble official going out for a trip... The two ghosts standing in the front were both in human form with grayish-white skin like stone. They were tall and covered in heavy bronze armor, with swords and knives on their waists and bronze plaques held high in their hands, on which were inscribed large characters of 'Silence' and 'Avoid'.

Behind them, there were spears, swords, and halberds like a forest. The ghosts and gods were separated into two rows, each holding a weapon like soldiers guarding the commander... Behind the tall ghosts and gods were two slightly shorter "ghosts and gods" who looked like yakshas with green faces and fangs, beating bronze gongs. There was also a dark sedan chair carried by four evil ghosts with muscles bulging like rocks. Behind the sedan chair stood countless dark temperaments and more ghosts and gods.

From front to back, the team was well-organized.

It is clearly like a god or a ghost, yet it presents a sense of strict discipline.

Such a team composed of ghosts and gods seems completely different from the ghosts and gods that appeared before, and there is a feeling of being out of place.

But seeing them approaching, Li Re and Jing Xueying could not help but look at each other, thinking that the only one who could make the out-of-control ghosts and gods so servile could be the 'Judge'!

It was just unexpected and caught me off guard.

But they did not lose their composure.

Ghosts and gods are inherently unpredictable. Although they have "mechanisms", they are also full of changes.

The so-called accident is actually a kind of mechanism.

The only way to deal with it is to fight against the enemy with our own army and block the water with our own earth!

frame!

The sound of the gong was getting closer.

Almost at the same time.

Amidst the sudden strong wind, the 'werewolf' Victor and the 'priest' Taibu also rushed out from the village surrounded by the mountains, and in an instant they jumped a hundred meters and landed with a thud!

They looked at Li Re and nodded, but no one spoke.

Just look at the front.

Looked up into the sky.

The four players seemed to be on high alert - no matter what the purpose of this 'Judge' who suddenly arrived in the daytime was, they had to stop him here and not let him enter the village.

Li Re narrowed his eyes slightly and began to think about his own methods, thinking about how he could fight against the "Judge" alone without harming others... Maybe the ghost lock can do this.

bang bang bang!

The sound of the gong was like thunder, and in the meantime, it was getting closer and closer.

"The chief judge of the Chacha Division is here for inspection. The living should stay away and the ghosts should retreat." The 'Yaksha' who was beating the gongs and drums shouted.

At this sound, the dead wood forests across the mountains shook violently, and countless skinny creatures actually fled - they hid and avoided.

This voice carries power!

The players understood immediately, and their already tense minds became even more alert.

After all...the living avoid them, the ghosts retreat, but they come from outside the sky, and in this world, they are not yin or yang.

In other words.

This 'Judge' is coming for them!

The next second, there was another clang and the sound of the gong stopped abruptly. The team composed of ghosts and gods stepped on the rainbow light of the strange sun and landed on the ground with a buzzing sound. Four evil ghosts flexed their muscles and landed on the rocks, but they sank several feet. It seemed that they were carrying not a sedan chair of neither size nor less than ten feet in radius, but a mountain. Dust and smoke were raised and scattered, and the team finally came to thirty meters in front of Li Re and others and stood far away.

The bronze ghost mask worn by the ghost holding up the "bronze plate" spewed out furnace-like hot air from its mouth and nose.

The ghosts and gods holding swords, spears, and halberds also stood still.

At this moment, the world seemed to stand still.

Li Re, Jing Xueying, Victor and Tai Bu's expressions moved slightly and they couldn't help but reveal a trace of confusion... Unlike the ghosts and gods that attacked before, the arrival of the 'Judge' this time, although with amazing momentum, made them feel that they didn't feel too much of a crisis - there was no sense of oppression from ghosts and gods carrying power to destroy the world.

At this moment, the black sedan chair curtain that was held high by the evil ghost began to tremble, and a red light shone through it, and a low and turbid sound was heard.

"I am the judge of the Investigation Department."

The 'Judge' is in this sedan chair!

The players looked at each other, not surprised at all.

Li Re took a step forward and asked, "Judge?"

"Want to judge us?" He said fearlessly with his eyes narrowed.

"I am only in charge of the yin and yang affairs of this world. You are celestial beings and are not under my control." The voice of the 'Judge' in the sedan chair came out again: "I am here only to tell you the truth of this world."

"the truth?"

Li Re raised his eyebrows in surprise. Although they had not sensed any danger from this mighty group of ghosts and gods and had already guessed that the coming of this 'Judge' might have other purposes, such words still surprised the players - Victor's eyes narrowed slightly and Taibu's ears moved slightly.

Jing Xueying's expression paused as she held the purple flowered umbrella in her hand.

"Yes, that's the truth. You 'celestial beings' came from outer space, and there must be instructions from higher beings behind you. But you definitely don't know what the truth of this world of ghosts and gods is."

The howling wind on the top of the mountain could not drown out the turbid sound coming from the pitch-black sedan chair. The 'Judge' who could judge the living and the dead, and even the ghosts and gods, spoke without any sadness or joy, and it was as if He was simply narrating.

Li Rexin said, what else could the truth of this world be? By now, he has gained a certain understanding of this out-of-control world by stealing the memories of ghosts and gods. He knows that tens of thousands of years ago, the ghost emperor Yu Lei became a god, and the Hades Shen Tu was born. From then on, the original evil ghosts possessed divinity, gained reason, and were also put under the shackles of order. He also knows that three thousand years ago, Shen Tu and Yu Lei "fell". Although the divinity of this world still exists, it has lost the shackles, exposing the nature of evil ghosts. From then on, the world is like a prison, and gods and ghosts are rampant.

That's why they have to hold this ceremony.

Only then can the Hades Ghost Emperor, who has been 'fallen' for three thousand years, return from the 'past'.

These are what Li Re knows.

But now, listening to what this 'Judge' said...it seems that there are other so-called truths in this world?

Li Re's curiosity was immediately aroused.

The players also held their breath and concentrated. They naturally did not believe the words of the enemy's ghosts and gods, but exploring the correct copy world information from the false information was an ability that the players should have.

The Judge said very concisely:

"After the seven-day ceremony, this world will die."

"The returning Shentu Yulei will completely destroy this world!"

Will Shentu and Yulei destroy the world?

"No, it's impossible!"

The priest shook his head subconsciously and said, "The Pluto is not an evil god!"

As a 'priest' who led a ritual of Hades' reincarnation, he knew this very well!

"I think so too..." Werewolf Victor frowned slightly. He looked at the ghost dumpling in front of him and said in a low voice: "Although I don't believe in ghosts and gods, and I don't believe in the so-called 'Pluto' - but I believe in 'Paradise'."

"Paradise's stance has always been in favor of order. The missions it issues are always about 'saving' - never destroying!"

"I think so too." Jing Xueying looked at Li Re and blinked.

Li Re thought about it and agreed.

He had completed several dungeon missions before, all of which ended with repairing the defects of the dungeon world.

The attitude of Paradise was very encouraging and the rewards were generous - although the rewards were of no use to me.

Based on this inference.

The position of 'Paradise' is undoubtedly orderly.

The 'ghosts and gods' who are enemies of them are even less trustworthy!

"Don't you believe it?"

Over there, the 'Judge', who was sitting in a ghost sedan chair and surrounded by ghosts and gods, heard their words but did not seem surprised:

"This kind of thing is really hard to accept."

“But this is the truth.”

"Because of this, I will never allow you to complete this seven-day ritual, let alone succeed. Although I am not afraid of losing my divinity and returning to my original evil ghost form, because the evil ghost is also me, if the world is destroyed, even ghosts and gods will be annihilated with it, and Xiyi will not exist. In the end, only a little bit of the origin of the soul will remain. When I return again, I will no longer be myself now."
