Su Li was not surprised that the Snake King stopped attacking.

Halfway through the fight, Su Li noticed that the Snake King's display of power was somewhat inconsistent with his actual strength. At first, he thought that the Snake King had just regained consciousness and his mind wasn't working properly, so he needed to warm up his body and was therefore fighting hastily to take advantage of his illness and gain more spoils.

Later, when he began to comprehend the Dao, he discovered that the Snake King had started to give him pointers, and he was no longer pretending at all.

At that moment, he realized that this person had no ill intentions at all.

Why? He guessed, perhaps it was because of the giant serpent's power.

In his frenzied state, the Snake King's mind was impaired; he recognized the giant snake but still believed it was a hoax.

However, in his radiant state, his mind cleared, and he confirmed that Su Li and the others meant no harm, which is why he wanted to give them a chance.

However, the Snake King's words, "Eternal gamer," puzzled Su Li.

"You know about the Eternal Game?" Su Li couldn't help but ask.

“That’s right.” The Snake King nodded, then waved his hand, and all the seawater that formed the domain of this true man’s duel dispersed.

Su Li looked around and, good heavens, the entire army was wiped out. Sophia and the others were all knocked to the ground, rubbing their drums—it was quite amusing.

However, judging from their expressions, they were not frustrated, so they must have been taught many tricks by the Snake King and each gained something from them.

At this moment, the Serpent King's clones also came together and transformed back into their four-armed serpent forms.

"Thank you all, otherwise I would still be in a state of madness." The Snake King waved his hand, and several golden chairs appeared behind Su Li and the others.

The Snake King gestured for them to sit down, and the group exchanged glances before obediently sitting down.

“You may call me Ocam. Our royal family takes our kingdom as our surname,” the Serpent King said kindly.

After saying this, the Snake King looked around and sighed deeply. "I never imagined that our world would ultimately perish. Even I am now nothing more than a phantom of the past."

Several people looked at each other.

Qi Guohui couldn't help but ask, "Are you aware of your own situation?"

“That’s right.” Ockham put down his trident and placed his hands on his chest. “This posture of mine comes from the power of faith of all my people. These people are not only the past phantoms sleeping behind me, but also those who participated in the Eternal Game.”

“They continued to provide me with the power of faith even after I participated in the game, which is why I was able to learn about this great game.”

"Hiss~~" Jingzhe gasped, "You guys have joined the Eternal Game too?"

"That's right, our game is the Eternal Crystal Boat game. Crystal boats are our usual mode of transportation."

"I never imagined that after the invaders self-destructed the world and destroyed our entire civilization, we would still be in such a predicament."

Ockham smiled faintly. "Heaven still favors us, allowing our civilization to continue."

"In the last refuge behind me, half of the people were pulled into the Eternal Game. Although their current situation is not good, at least their civilization has been passed down."

Su Li was very surprised. She never expected that after the aquatic war, the surviving snake people, who had been wandering for a long time, would actually join the Eternal Game.

This means that the Eternal Game is not as all-powerful as it seems. It can indeed summon civilizations that have been destroyed to play this Eternal Game, but its search has a range. If a civilization is beyond its detection range, it cannot be summoned in time.

At the same time, it also means that among the many fragments of the world, there may be fragments belonging to Blue Star, and perhaps Su Li and the others will still have a chance to return to Blue Star.

Of course, Su Li was also very fortunate that the world to which Blue Star belonged was within the search range of the Eternal Game. Once the world was destroyed, the Eternal Game would pull all the people of Blue Star into the game.

If, like that invading seahorse, he had drifted in the void for a while, perhaps Zuli would have died before the Eternal Game.

After all, he was just an 18-year-old orphan with no one to rely on.

After Su Li and the others had processed the news, the Snake King continued, "I sensed the power of the Great Serpent Lord from you. Is there something the Great Serpent Lord needs you to do?"

After speaking, the Snake King glanced at Qi Guohui. His brows furrowed slightly, but he said nothing.

"Hmm." Qi Guohui breathed a sigh of relief after reading the information in the manual.

Just now, he used an identification tool on this snake-man king to confirm that this was indeed the phantom from the past.

Then, there are some things you can say to him.

Qi Guohui said, "I apologize for offending you. I just used some kind of detection device to confirm that you were not lying. This matter is of great importance, so I have to be careful."

"It's alright." The Snake King waved his hand generously, showing that he was quite easygoing and didn't have much of a kingly air about him. "So now, can you tell me?"

"Okay."

Then, Qi Guohui explained their plans for coming to this world: "The Great Serpent Lord still has attachments to this world and wants to take a crystal ball from here, so we came here."

“I know that Orochi is your god, but we can’t contact your civilization right now. If we keep dragging this out, Orochi will either be ambushed by that shepherd or perish along with the fragments of this world. It’s better to let Orochi come with us.”

"Outrageous! How dare they plot against the Great Serpent Lord like this! Feeding the Great Serpent Lord with their own flesh and blood, this is utterly disrespectful!" Ockham slammed his fist on the chair in anger, and a shockwave instantly spread out from him, pressing Su Li and the others against the backrests.

"Hiss~" Su Li gasped. This radiant person was terrifying.

If this old ancestor really starts fighting, we Qi Refining, no, Black Iron noobs, would probably be wiped out by any shockwave.

"The Great Serpent Lord has sacrificed too much for us. Since the Great Serpent Lord has decided to go with you, we will respect the Great Serpent Lord's will. However, now that I know about that blasphemous person, I will not let him go unpunished. This is not in vain that I was awakened by the Great Serpent Lord."

"Huh?" Su Li was taken aback. "Did the giant snake awaken you?"

“That’s natural. This power of faith is not directed at me, this useless king, but at the great Serpent Lord,” Ockham explained. “The Serpent Lord probably knew of my existence long ago, so he channeled the faith of all people onto me, awakening me.”

Su Li was stunned. So all of this was the giant snake's scheme?

Is the giant snake really that smart?

Thinking of the giant serpent, Zuli instinctively felt it was unlikely.

This giant snake has a simple-minded and straightforward feel to it, and doesn't seem like the kind of creature capable of devising such a scheme.

This statement seems to be something that Wang, who has a low opinion of himself, has imagined.

In fact, the giant serpent wasn't that smart. He just missed the snake people of the past and also remembered the precious pearl he had left behind, which he wanted to use to blow up the bad guy who had given him the parasite.

Ockham's resurrection was actually due to the fact that, as the last offspring of Ockham, the protector of all people, he had become the faith of many of the Serpent People. The faith that was inherent in him resonated with the power of the Great Serpent.

But Ockham was a believer, so he naturally took this miracle as the wisdom of the serpent.

Having made his decision, Ockham waved his hand at the cave, and a moment later, a huge golden orb flew out of the cave. Then, Ockham shattered the cave.

"Let's go see Orochi."
