Huh? Are they all real?...

The boundary between the distant snowfield and the leaden-gray mountains suddenly blurred.

When a liquid warmer than snow, yet colder than snow, dripped onto Moen's hands.

Moen then realized that he had been waiting for a familiar, mocking laugh that would never be heard.

Silence quietly broke out amidst the surrounding noise.

After a moment of silence, Moen lowered the brim of his hat and disappeared into the increasingly heavy snow.

The living must move forward.

He also has many responsibilities on his shoulders.

The future of many people.

We absolutely cannot let our own mistakes ruin our future!

-

The machine god and the golden retriever are carefully discussing how to deal with this enormous crisis that seems capable of destroying the world.

But the other goddesses couldn't help but feel agitated.

Moen had left before.

This made them very worried.

But no matter what, the treasures they lost and found were always with them.

But this time it's different.

That was a bizarre history that was personally severed by Moen.

It is a mistake that even the world itself has forgotten.

So, in a sense, that was a 'farewell forever'.

Even though they haven't discovered the truth yet, the mystical entanglements brought about by the God King's ironclad laws are enough to serve as a warning to their intuition.

Now it remains to be seen who will react first, and whether Bella can successfully put out the fire.

In fact, Bella, on whom the Machine God had placed high hopes, was actually giving up after careful consideration, and said to the beautiful Machine God, who possessed an inhuman quality:

"Ah, I suddenly think we should be honest. I can't think of any effective way. In fact, I feel that if I really get involved, I might be chased and killed by a group of crazy goddesses."

The king has gone missing; this is a serious matter.

It knew this was bad.

Not only did it know, but it also tried to conceal such a major event, which seems to be a kind of foolishness that makes it think it's too long to live.

So the wise Bella decided to surrender first.

A smart Golden Retriever should learn to be pragmatic, shouldn't it?

The beautiful machine god, however, righteously denied it and gave sufficient reasons:

"No, we must delay their discovery as much as possible. Otherwise, it's not just that we'll be in danger, but we can't predict what they'll do."

“I am a goddess who has been elevated by machine, so my thoughts are entirely determined by data. I can remain calm, but they cannot. They are emotional beings, and they have already lost once. Under the ironclad law of the God-King, they will absolutely not remain calm.”

"A massive, insane sacrifice launched in pursuit of even the slightest possible clue, baseless suspicion and the resulting war, and a literal search of every corner—these are things a goddess who is gradually losing patience is absolutely capable of doing."

"It could be much more than that."

"Looking back at history, you should know that I'm not wrong in this situation. And you should know that this time there's more than one goddess like this."

Bella knew she was right, because such things had indeed happened throughout the history of four eras.

For example, the famous Battle of the Two Towers was a fierce battle that broke out because the Golden King was kidnapped and his goddess suspected the wrong person.

There are also all sorts of crazy rituals; you don't need to look too far ahead—just look at the recent Pure White Dynasty to see for yourself.

In order to resurrect the White King, Aurora is performing several massive rituals while almost exhausting herself.

However, she definitely won't succeed.

Because she herself killed the White King.

The king only realized what he truly loved after he died; Bella always felt that if it weren't for the clown, his place would have been taken long ago.

Aurora is definitely the one destined for us.

What? You're saying Aurora isn't on the Joker's Path?

"The original is above, wouldn't that be more appropriate?"

The king is dead, and the path has been taken wrong. Is there anything more ridiculous than this?

It's impossible!

"So we need to avoid this extreme situation until I find him and he comes back, or until I find a way to calm them down."

The golden retriever looked at the machine god with a worried expression and said:

"I think either one is unlikely."

It has considered many methods, but none of them have worked.

The entanglements brought about by the ironclad laws of the God-King are no joke.

"Or do you have a solution?"

Bella asked this question without any expectation.

It had already decided that if it couldn't reach an agreement, it would go back and rebel.

As the saying goes, a good dog is perceptive.

After a long silence, the beautiful, non-human machine god spoke:

"Give them an enemy!"

"what?"

Bella's fur suddenly stood on end.

"The way to unite everyone is to give them a common enemy. In this way, all problems will be temporarily put aside."

Bella the Golden Retriever hurriedly shook her head like a rattle drum.

"No, no, absolutely not."

“I admit you have a point, but where can we find such an enemy? Or rather, what enemy could possibly withstand so many mad goddesses right now? Don’t look at me, if I dared to jump out, I’d be skinned alive.”

Bella didn't want to turn into a golden fur coat so soon after becoming a god.

Seriously, would anyone actually make clothes out of dog skin?

But maybe the golden retriever isn't?

Suddenly feeling a chill, Bella quickly banished the thought and continued:

"Besides, are you really sure they won't go looking for the lost king first before dealing with this so-called enemy?"

"It's very simple, that enemy is the one who kidnapped their king."

It's quite simple, but it seems a bit exaggerated.

Bella exclaimed in amazement:

"Then we'll probably have to wake up the Primal One to fill that role in order to buy some time. And do you have a way to wake up the Primal One?"

By the way, since the Primordial One is already awake, is there still a need to do this?

"No."

"That's okay!"

Alright, no need to hesitate any longer, go back and switch sides!

As for the possible consequences, let's save the dog's life first.

However, as they were talking, Bella suddenly looked at the Machine God with a sudden realization and said:

"You don't mean you're going to be the enemy, do you?"

Yes, she is very suitable.

The barrier still firmly prevents deities and even higher-order beings from transcending it.

And Trajan did indeed disappear after coming to her place.

As long as she bears the title of Trajan's imprisonment.

It is true that all the goddesses can be temporarily gathered together, but there is nothing that can be done about it.

The more Bella thought about it, the more convinced she was that this was the right idea.

Okay, let's not jump in the opposite direction for now.

Thinking of this, Bella's happy tail almost flew off.

However, the machine god poured cold water on it:

"No."

"Huh? Why? You're the only option!"

"Because this is useless and would seriously damage the human alliance, this is the reason why I made the God-King Covenant with him."

"Aren't you watching over this area? At most, a Sequence Four cultivator could cause any trouble. You don't want to suffer any losses at all, do you?"

The machine god solemnly rejected Bella's statement:

"I can accept any loss in order to preserve this civilization. But it's really useless."

Prematurely launching a world war, which resulted in the loss of almost 97 percent of the Human Alliance's population of Machine Gods, is indeed acceptable regardless of any losses other than the complete demise of the Human Alliance.

"Why didn't it work?"

"Because the two worlds can be connected, and with so many goddesses inevitably willing to pay any price, I'm pretty sure someone will notice something's wrong."

"For example, if I kidnapped Queen Benalana, and then your avatar came here, but after searching the whole world, you couldn't find anything, wouldn't you start to have doubts?"

It seems so, so I'd better go back and switch sides.

The wise golden retriever could not hide its thoughts from the even wiser genius:

"You don't need to think about defecting, because I have suitable options."

"Then why didn't you say so earlier? What's the point of going through all this trouble? Was it to waste time?"

"Because I also deduced this option myself."

Bella sighed and said:

"Okay, hurry up and tell me."

"Do you know that Trajan is searching for the White Calamity?"

"I've heard some things. Goddess Ansa even asked me if I bought any information that might be related. But I can't find anything that corresponds to that."

The Machine God's lips curled into a beautiful smile, a perfect angle calculated with reference to countless data.

“That makes sense. He agreed to my request because I offered him a way to find the answer. Now, I’m 90% sure he did find the answer, but he got lost in that strange ‘white calamity’.”

Analyze all possibilities, then choose the highest answer.

That's what the machine god did.

Without a doubt, given Moen's identity, throughout the history of the four eras, only the white calamity, which even Moen was unaware of, could cause him to suffer an 'accident'.

Bella pondered along with the machine god's words, and after a moment of contemplation, she affirmed:

"It's probably true, but why bother creating enemies? We can just tell them directly."

"Because there must be an enemy that can create a strong sense of urgency to unite them, rather than causing them to fight each other because the other is a potential adversary, leading to unexpected events that we cannot observe."

The Machine God persuaded Bella once again.

"But that would bring us back to square one, which means where do we even find this enemy? We can't just make one up out of thin air. Putting aside whether they'd believe it, the key question is, who's qualified to be one?"

Kidnapping Trajan was practically a declaration of war against the entire world, something even the eldest son wouldn't dare to do alone.

Even having three or four eldest sons together would be risky.

"It's very simple. This person needs to manifest a power that even gods cannot see through, and also needs tangible traces of existence. And coincidentally, I know a suitable one."
