A Game for Everyone: God-Level Talent is Achieved Through Rolling In.

Edgar frowned. "I understand." Then he crushed the teleportation stone and disappeared from the spot.

After he disappeared, Tianxi Changyi finally spoke: "Why use the Soul-Devouring Gu on a child?"

Nie Wan reactivated the translucent ancient mirror, replaying the memories captured from the illusory image of the Immortal Pillow.

Amidst the milky white smoke, the main experiences of this fifteen-year-old boy are revealed one by one.

He comes from a high-level executive family; both parents are busy with work and have no time to take care of him.

His nanny bullied him maliciously when he was a child, and as an outlet for his emotions, he would bully the family pets or people weaker than him at school.

After junior high school, as their bodies developed rapidly, their bullying behavior quickly escalated, evolving into small gangs and bullying.

Then, just before the game began, he and his small group collectively sensed a kind of "summoning".

From what I remember, the summoning sound was similar to the sound that everyone had heard underground earlier.

The only difference was that the buzzing sounds were much clearer.

"Are you angry at this mediocre world...? Come with me..."

Words like these kept echoing in his ears, and one day he dreamed of that enormous, awe-inspiring existence.

Like those bizarre creatures from the Cthulhu Mythos, indescribable and forever unknowable, only a chilling fear sweeps over you.

The teenagers, already prone to adolescent delusions, couldn't resist the temptation. Lured by the object of their dreams, they gathered in a small, abandoned warehouse, drew a sacrificial array, and cut their wrists together, letting their blood drip onto the array.

On the day the game began, they fell asleep earlier than anyone else, and following the guidance of the things in their dreams, they obtained the items to unlock the inheritance.

After successfully changing jobs, this small team, mainly composed of six teenagers, was officially formed.

Initially, they would directly ambush and kill other players within the main city.

When I'm in a good mood, I'll launch a sneak attack and then let the opponent go, allowing their soul to respawn at the respawn point.

When in a bad mood or when a hidden entity assigns a task, it will directly devour people with a crack similar to the one just now, consuming both their body and soul.

Later, the Church of Holy Light rose to prominence, and the priests and paladins within the church began hunting down similar players. They were forced to conceal their tracks and move the crime scenes to such remote wilderness maps.

As a result, players who fall into their trap are often those who are low-level, can't keep up with the main group, or are introverted and unwilling to team up with others to level up.

Although they are all small shrimp, the success rate of catching them is much higher.

These juvenile delinquents remain smug, believing they have found a path to heaven in the game, a path that allows them to climb over the corpses of countless others.

Edgar felt that when he completed his mission of guiding the people in his dreams and took over as the god, all those who had bullied or ignored him would surely regret it.

Until today, we've run into a brick wall.

He failed to see through Nie Wan and the others' disguises. When they reached the designated location, he immediately used his divine power to try to devour them all.

However, as an ordinary player with only level 75, he was no match for Tianxi Changyi.

Not to mention Nie Wan, who could see right through him and the origin of the god behind him.

Nie Wan could tell that the enormous creature, which resembled the Cthulhu Mythos, was a projection of the concept of fear in the game.

To be honest, he's a boss who hasn't developed any intelligence, similar to the Blood Cicada that introduced the concept of lust into the Chinese region.

It carries a divine oracle, which Nie Wan glanced at just now; it was roughly called "What is frightening is only fear itself."

This was the first time she had ever seen an oracle with such a long name, but she wasn't surprised.

What kind of power can the concept of fear leave in games?

Fear itself is the essence of nature.

The shadow cast doesn't seem very clever, and perhaps the concept itself isn't very clever either.

The moment Nie Wan saw these memories clearly, she made her own plans.

The concept of peace requires her to erase destruction and conflict, but that doesn't mean other concepts cannot be erased by the power she grants.

Nie Wan had this plan the moment she finished reading the memories.

Tianxi Changyi also fell silent after seeing these memories.

He followed Nie Wan's teleportation and left the place, continuing to chat with her in private messages.

Even so, is this your reason for using the Soul-Devouring Gu?

Can't this be used as a reason?

Of course, that's perfectly legitimate, but I think there are other ways.

I don't want to waste my brain cells on these people, nor do I want to squander my compassion on them. You don't seem like that kind of person either.

Tianxi Changyi lowered his eyes slightly, and the blood-red blade in his hand slowly dissipated into a river, circling around him before merging back into his body.

Perhaps it's you who gave me this indecisiveness.

Nie Wan had already remembered most of her past life, and upon hearing this, she knew that he had also remembered it.

Are you still angry with me because I took advantage of Liuguang's actions and refused to cooperate with me?

I have always hated you.

Tianxi Changyi answered frankly.

[I don't understand. You know Mingguang is a person who hates evil and is a thoroughly good person. Why did you lead him to the Ten Thousand Souls Banner? Why were you so eager to provoke a conflict between him and Ye Rutan? If you just talked to him and made things clear, he would become your most steadfast ally. You had no need to scheme against him at all.]

Because I'm not after him, but you.

Nie Wan was also very frank. When she spoke, she squinted her eyes and recalled what she had done in her previous life.

[I need a suitable person to act as bait, to be swallowed by Ye Rutan as an inside agent. The phoenix's rebirth doesn't quite match Ye Rutan's ghostly aura; if she has to devour a player, she'd definitely prefer you.]

Tianxi Changyi was not surprised by this.

"You've told me this before. I understood you then, and I understand you now. I just don't understand why you had to plot against Mingguang?"

Is it simply a misunderstanding of the methods used?

Tianxi Changyi nodded gently.

Nie Wan shrugged.

"Then I'm afraid I can't give you an answer. Back then, and even now, this is the first thing that comes to my mind. If I didn't let Liuguang Bugong see the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner, see how those prodigies were tormented by Ye Rutan, I would definitely have spent even more time persuading him, and even persuading you. I don't want to waste time; I want to solve the problem in the shortest amount of time."

Mingguang and I are merely consumables you use to shorten the time.

【You can say that. 】

Tianxi Changyi remained silent for a moment, then laughed.

Whenever you're this honest, I feel a little more confident that I can continue to tell myself that you're different from Ye Rutan.
