I'm not a drama god

Chen Ling understood.

The Akashic Records cannot be accessed by any specific means. They are a collection of all "possibilities." However, if the "probability" is tampered with, Lingxu Jun has a high probability of accessing the Akashic Records...

This is a BUG that only Lingxujun can exploit. It is an unconventional but perhaps extremely effective solution.

"At the same time, during the construction of the Akashic Tower, the people will also inject 'spirituality' into it." Lingxu Jun spoke again.

"The process of building that tower is like constructing a Buddha statue. During this process, everyone, consciously or unconsciously, places their hopes on the Akashic Tower, silently praying and yearning... This is a process of gathering faith and improving one's 'spirituality,' which in itself can increase the probability of accessing the Akashic Records."

No wonder Lord Lingxu mobilized so many people to build the Akashic Tower.

In addition to the fact that the construction of the Akashic Tower is extremely difficult and indeed requires a large number of manpower, "humans" themselves also provide spirituality for the tower, which is something that no high-end precision machine can do... Only humans with hope can build civilization and faith in desperate situations.

"You just said you needed the Twilight Society to help you repair this tower?"

"That's right... The construction of the Akashic Tower requires carvings that are as precise as microns. Very few ordinary people can achieve this level, but the Qingshen Dao, Shushen Dao, Yishen Dao, and some of the other paths of the Shinto can achieve mass production." Lingxu Jun paused for a moment.

"The Dusk Society has dozens of Shinto masters, which is exactly what we need right now... With your help, the construction of the Akashic Tower will be much faster."

From Lingxu Jun's perspective, the most urgent task is to build the Akashic Tower as soon as possible. The human realm has just experienced a devastating disaster, and there are only three realms left. There are very few surviving Shinto owners... and the Dusk Society, which has a large number of complete Shinto owners, is undoubtedly a treasure mine waiting to be developed.

In other words, what Lingxu Jun wants is not Chen Ling... but the entire Twilight Society.

Chen Ling hardly hesitated:

"I reject."

Lingxu Jun frowned, "Why?"

"My fellow members have other things to do."

"Don't you understand? The Twilight Society's reboot efficiency is too low. As long as we can build the Akashic Tower and connect to the Akashic Records, we can instantly find a way to destroy the Red Star. This is the best solution."

"No, this is your solution." Chen Ling replied calmly.

Chen Ling didn't understand what the Akashic Tower and the Akashic Records were. He also didn't know how much of what Lingxu Jun said was true and how much was just his own subjective judgment...

He only knew that the Twilight Society had only one meaning for its existence, to reverse the times and restart the world.

If Lingxu Jun succeeds, then everyone will be happy...

But what if he fails?

Humanity needs a backup plan, a "safety net option" that can make everything start over again no matter what happens in the world this time. If Lingxujun plays the role of constantly exploring a way forward, then Chen Ling is the last insurance to cover the future of mankind.

No matter what, Chen Ling could not give up the last insurance of the Twilight Society to others.

Lingxu Jun's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and the aura around him began to become unstable. This strongest of the Nine Juns who was determined to "destroy Chixing" began to have a hint of confusion and paranoia in his eyes.

rustling --

The swaying shadows of the trees shook violently.

"What are they talking about?" Jian Changsheng was anxiously turning around.

Except for the three members of the Nine of Hearts who were closest to them, and the six captains of the Knights, the other members of the Dusk Club who were mixed in the noisy crowd found it difficult to hear their conversation. They only knew that the two of them sat on both sides of the chessboard for a long time, and then a sense of pressure from the Nine Lords emanated outward.

The 9 of Hearts, the Q of Spades, and the J of Hearts sensed the change in Lingxu Jun's breath, and their faces suddenly changed.

The four senior brothers and sisters behind Chen Ling also frowned.

Only Chen Ling remained unmoved.

Even though he was sitting right in front of Lingxu Jun and could most clearly feel the pressure from Lingxu Jun, at this moment he still looked calm and composed, his eyes looking at Lingxu Jun calmly...

After a moment, Lingxu Jun's aura gradually subsided, and he pointed to the chessboard in front of him:

"Don't refuse in a hurry..."

"This is the Lingxu Realm, so we will follow the rules of the Lingxu Realm. The winner is the king. If you can defeat me on this chessboard, I will let you leave safely."

"However, there are some things I must remind you..."

"In my early years, I played chess with your previous Red King, but he couldn't beat me."

Lingxu Jun revealed a hint of confidence in his words. At the same time, an indescribable aura emanated from under the square, directly blocking the surrounding streets, preventing anyone from entering or leaving at will.

Ordinary people didn't notice it and were still chattering about something, but the Shinto owners sensed the abnormality.

The eyes of all the members of the Dusk Club present turned cold. Although Lingxu Jun's move could not be considered a declaration of war, it undoubtedly put pressure on their Red King. The many masters hidden in the crowd were ready to attack at this moment.

"Damn it, what does Lord Lingxu mean?" Jian Changsheng rushed out without saying a word.

"Wait!" Sun Bumian stopped Jian Changsheng again, "Don't be impulsive... Even if you want to take action, you have to wait for the signal from the red heart."

Under the swaying green shade,

Chen Ling sat still.

After a brief silence, Lingxu Jun slowly made a "please" gesture:

"You, go down first."

Chen Ling remained unmoved.

Lingxu Jun frowned, and just as he was about to say something, Chen Ling's light words cut him off:

"I can't play chess."

Lingxujun: ...?

Lingxu Jun did not expect this situation. He thought for a moment, then waved his hand, and the knight next to him immediately brought up a Chinese chess set.

"Chinese chess is also fine."

"No."

"...Then Go should be okay, right?"

"will not."

"Backgammon?"

Lingxu Jun was almost losing his patience. He already had some guesses in his mind. If Chen Ling refused to play Gobang, then he was simply teasing him... In this day and age, who couldn't even play Gobang?

"I know Gobang."

Lingxu Jun just breathed a sigh of relief,

The next second, Chen Ling spoke again:

"But...why should I follow your rules?"

Snapped--! !

Chen Ling snapped his fingers, and the chessboard flew directly into the sky. The chess pieces flipped and spun in the air, and then fell like raindrops!

As everyone's eyes blurred, the chess piece in Chen Ling's hand had turned into a black pistol, which was calmly pressed against his temple.

"There's only one kind of chess I'm willing to play..."

"but you……"

"Do you really want to play with me?"
