What did you do with the dice?

She firmly believed in her heart: the devil god they were talking about now was just a false god, and only the god she had met who guided her to see the true nature of the world was the real "end".
If that’s the case, if Rusalka had also seen the being who was absolutely above the Twelve Gods, why did she still ask the ridiculous question of “is there a chance of winning?”
No, absolutely not. She would have dared to fight even the Twelve Gods. But that one person alone made her realize clearly that as long as she remained mortal, there was no way she could defeat such a being. If "He" wanted to destroy the world, then the only way out was to escape, not to struggle and fight. Resistance was futile.
The God of Truth answered this question directly: "I don't see any reason why you can win."
Rusalka: "Just, simply wanting to survive, isn't that the most basic reason?"
The God of Truth: "Of course, what I said is not your reason. It means nothing to us."
Theresa's heart sank, and a flash of anger flashed in her pupils: It was precisely this arrogance of not treating all believers as human beings that made her hate these gods so much.
Sanitta knew that the gods wouldn't lie to them about such matters, and their words were definitely precise. This meant, from his perspective, that the game's organizer hadn't given a reason for not allowing the apocalypse to destroy the world.
Judging from the actions of the Twelve Gods, there is only one year left. But they have not allowed their forces to make any move.
There was no intention of cooperation, not even a oracle or anything like that.
This suggests they were solely focused on "fighting" the apocalypse, not on "defeating" it. Therefore, it's safe to assume this isn't the first time the apocalypse has destroyed the world, and they've likely tried and failed before. Consequently, it's become their accepted inevitability.
It seemed that destroying the world had no bearing on the outcome of their battle. That was why he felt no need to strive to defeat the other side; all he needed was victory in the final analysis.
Rusalka: (The Twelve Gods are in such a mess, are they really that desperate?)
Sanitta: (No, not yet. Actually, there's a reason for our victory, and that's the "fairness" that the DM who sent us here abides by. Fairness means there are winners and losers. No matter how outrageous this fairness may seem to us, it will definitely give us a chance of winning no matter what decision we make.)
Indeed, if Rushaka had only 100 points when it was opened, the two of them might still be stuck in Sinidi. Now that it has developed to this level where it is unparalleled in the world, it means that the DM feels that the 500-point Rushaka is necessary.
Sanitta actually had a guess. They were sent here in the later stages of the "game" and were not allowed to participate in a series of epic battles such as the "War of Faith" and the "War of Demons". It might be for some kind of balance. Maybe he and Rusalka were actually important weights standing on the side of the eternal plane on the scale of victory?
But the above speculation still relied on the unfathomable thoughts of the "DM." In fact, Sanitieta was not used to pinning his hopes on others. However, the news he heard from the God of Truth was indeed quite depressing.
Instead of pouring cold water on her directly, he might as well tell her a few riddles to liven up the atmosphere. This made Rusalka quite unmotivated.
He simply used the parliament's ability to create things out of thin air, turned it into a toad tongue toy, put it in his mouth, blew and rolled it, and put the two legs on the table. The others were stunned by the comfort he felt.
This was Rusalka's first time leading a meeting in the Black Mist Council on Theresa's behalf, but unfortunately, it would also be her last. "Let's move on to the information sharing session. I'll go first. I've united most of the world's forces. Since the demon's seal cannot be strengthened, I intend to fight a decisive battle with the End with all my might. Who agrees? Who opposes?"
Libra's Sanshui Xinyu replied, "If the main battle line remains the same as the first time, advancing eastward from the Seven Sins in the west, Esterlen will also provide air support as much as possible."
Rusalka raised her eyebrows. "That's a rare thing. You've come across the continent to help me. Do you have a change of heart?"
Sanshui Xinyu chuckled. "You killed Mo Wujue, but the God of Law and Contract is still here. Although I'm the core decision-maker in the council now, the so-called Esterlun Council is nothing more than a puppet of the gods. How can I disobey orders given by Him personally?"
As expected, even after the death of the Eight Stars Descendants, they weren't eliminated. On the contrary, it was the Seven Sins Agent Pygmalion who played himself out, which was a rare thing. He was indeed a freak that even Elune didn't take seriously.
Thinking about it this way, besides the Goddess of Pleasure, who was clearly eliminated, and Lady Shadow, who was almost eliminated, the Lord of Time, whom Qingfeng believed in, who had taken the token from the treasury, might still be gathering power in the ruins. It was a pity that he didn't have enough time. Otherwise, he would have to dig the entire archaeological team out to talk to Him.
By the way, I want to ask Him what kind of B structure was the watch in this groove that made him lose three seconds at that time. CJB God, come here and put the instruction manual of your artifact on my face so I can see it. I want to see whether your method is legal and compliant.
Why are other people's artifacts all contact damage, but yours can kill me with just one press? Rusalka still feels resentful about this.
Although Theresa was the Messenger of the End, Sanitta now knew she had to slay at least one Demon Lord. So, even if it was just a show, it would be played out to the bitter end. "Esdi will fight with all her might. I will dispatch all the Knights directly to Snidi through the portal and the border. We will never let the tragedy of the First Demon War happen again."
Rusalka teased, "Will you come in person?"
Theresa smiled at him and blew him a passionate kiss. A flaming love heart flew towards Rusalka. "If this is what you expect, I will rush to your side and help you immediately."
Rusalka reached out to take the heart, crumpled it into a ball and threw it back: "Haha, the Demon Legion has enough, but I won't give you the Demon Lord."
Theresa waved her hand to disperse the flames. "You're such a hero! Can't you give me some?"
The two smiled in tacit understanding and said no more.
Rusalka might simply be a chatterbox, but Sanitta and Theresa were on the same page. Neither could attack the other until the Demon Lord was defeated. Rusalka symbolized the bridge that united Sneedi and the various races. And Theresa was the spiritual pillar of the clergy, the one who best controlled demons. The fall of even one would devastate the situation.
Whether it is Theresa or Rusalka, they both hold the part of faith that the other party is missing. Once they get the head of the demon lord, the thirteenth "faith" from the end, that will probably be the signal for both sides to tear each other apart and go to war - whoever kills the other will be able to escape from the eternal plane.
But what Theresa didn't know was that the Sani Tower might have
She had some idea, but Rusalka had no intention of escaping after gathering the faith of the Twelve Gods.
I've already trained to be stronger than the dragons, so how could I be more cowardly than them? There's no reason to fight!
However, Rusalka has a very dark idea: I will kill all the six lords' heads, destroy the End, and run back to Earth with my cats, fish, etc., so that Theresa will never be able to escape for the rest of her life. She will be locked up in the Eternal Plane and sit in jail. If there is no entertainment, she can only wear cosplay to show me her buoyancy, strive to be the best, and raise buoyant chickens. Brother, please ask me if I can watch the live broadcast of the Eternal Plane on Earth, and help me install a camera in the Wright Cathedral. Thank you.
Sanita: (God-defying.)
When no one spoke, Taurus spoke up, "The Dragon Mother doesn't intend to join the battle."
Rusalka originally thought that Onyxia's words "The Mother of Dragons is crazy" might be just an angry remark, but now it seems that it is not an angry remark.
The first time the demons invaded, my teammates hadn't reacted yet. That was the worst time to go, but she led the dragon clan to attack. Well, at least you fought, so I'll give you the title of courageous.
Now the second demon invasion is about to come, and you refuse to go when it's your turn. Now the theory of courage doesn't make sense. What else can you say but crazy?
Rushakana was puzzled. "The weaklings of the sea tribe are joining the battle, and now the dragon tribe is scared?"
Taurus was stunned: "The Sea Clan is also planning to join the war?"
Sanitita: (You threw out false information in the last meeting, didn't you? When did the Sea Tribe say they would join the war?)
Rusalka: (Haven't you already used Vishas as a hostage to control the other princes?)
Sanitita: (Your statement is highly subjective. She volunteered to stay and live with the Pearl Tear Territory. What does that have to do with the Sea Clan? If you talk about joining the war now, and then they spread the word among the sea and find out there's a disagreement, how much trouble will that cause? After all, the Nohats who advocate war are a minority in the sea. Why not wait until they've moved from being confused to being furious with the demons?)
Rusalka heard that his brother was indeed bad: (Then you might as well go to the End and offer advice, and have it attack Pearl Harbor first to liven things up.)
Of course, he couldn't say that at the meeting, so Rusalka fooled around and said that he had a good relationship with the sea people. After some of the sea people knew the news, they decided to help him and built a portal in his territory so that they could come to support him at any time.
Taurus was silent for a moment, then asked, "Where is that portal?"
Rusalka was about to answer when she was stopped by Sanita. It was still unclear which side the Taurus was on, so how could she tell it this news? "I dare not say that."
The Taurus dragon wasn't angry. It felt Rusalka's concern was justified, so it took out a diamond-shaped transparent crystal and tossed it to him. "Take this, it's for you. If you encounter the Demon Lord's army on the front lines and need support, use it. Remember to protect it until I arrive."

[Effect: Upon activation, a stable, grabbable spatial coordinate is automatically generated nearby. All teleportation effects from other dimensions within the coordinate range (100-meter radius) will be successful. Any spatially destructive effects within this range, such as the "Space Blade," will be ineffective. If the item is already bound to a device, the next teleport location will be automatically set to a nearby, accessible spatial location.]
Why did they suddenly drop equipment to support without any reason? Is this still the council of the evil camp? Didn’t they find out that everyone wanted to be good people during the last council?
God of Truth, please lift up your fog and let me see if you are the one in the God Suit of Wright next door.
Chapter 470 The Last Black Mist Council (Part 2)
Rusalka had no idea what this Taurus man was up to. They clearly didn't know each other, and apart from some simple transactions, they had no business dealings at all.
However, at this time, the other party offered to help fight the demon, and it seemed that he was just a teleportation support.
It's hard to say that they had a change of heart. Apart from the outlier Rusalka, even if all the other people here were resurrected and put all the consciences in their bodies together, it is estimated that they would not have as much kindness as the stray dogs on the roadside.
Even Sanita couldn't figure out why: because they had never met each other in real life, they had minimal information about Taurus and couldn't see that everyone was almost finished. Even if the other party didn't believe that they would be finished, then in the demon war, what benefits would they have on themselves that they could exploit?
The only worst-case scenario that can be thought of is that the other side has a weapon similar to a "nuclear bomb", waiting for Rusalka to set the beacon on the most dangerous battlefield, and then teleport it over to nuke them together. This will kill two birds with one stone and eliminate two enemies. The dragons far away at sea must be smiling.
But this is not justifiable. After all, everyone in this parliament, except Rusalka, is a carefully selected official traitor. If Taurus really did this, it would be like doing the work of the goddess of wealth, which is not in line with his position as the ace traitor.
I really can't figure it out.
But it would be a waste not to take this free item. After Rusalka is finished, I will take it back and think about it myself. Maybe I can erase the binding on it and use this thing myself.
If you really suspect that the other party has ulterior motives, the worst that can happen is
Just seal it up and bury it one hundred meters underground and don't use it. It will be safe if you don't use it.
Since the other party is so "sincere", let's talk about something. Even if she met a stranger on the street and asked to borrow a lighter, wouldn't Rusalka have to exchange a few pleasantries with him? Wouldn't that make everyone seem polite? "By the way, Taurus, do you know Onyxia?"
Now, after admiring her own statue with satisfaction, she flew to the territory designated for her to soak in the poisonous hot springs and rest.
This guy's ability to pollute the environment was truly remarkable. In just a few days, he had already created a poisonous swamp on the wasteland. It looked just like an ordinary swamp, and there wasn't even any peculiar smell. After Rusalka stepped in, apart from the purple liquid in the swamp being a bit sticky, it didn't seem like a big deal. Even the system prompt was the same as always: "Toxin Immune."
Rusalka: Hehehe, I’m taking a bath with Miss Black Dragon Princess.
Unfortunately, the opponent was in dragon form, while he was not a carriage, truck or car.
However, if you throw a perfectly forged shield in there, the steel that has been hammered thousands of times and is invulnerable to swords and guns will gradually dissolve into liquid from the outside to the inside, and will be completely destroyed in about a few minutes.
When ordinary animals with flesh and blood fall down, not even a bone will be left.
Now, Sani Iron Tower has specially assigned soldiers to set up a cordon around the periphery and informed nearby residents that farming and grazing activities are prohibited near this area.
He felt that he had done his best. If there were any foolish adventurers who thought that there must be treasure in the dragon's nest, or if there were any people who didn't understand what people said and went to farm and found that there was no harvest, then he would not be responsible.
Unsurprisingly, this Taurus, also a dragon in the Black Mist Council, did know Onyxia: "Well, by the name Onyxia, are you referring to the Black Dragon Baron whose mouth is poisonous in every sense of the word?"
Its description of Onyxia was so insightful that it seemed to go beyond mere acquaintance.
Rusalka: "It sounds like you know her very well?"
Even Taurus, who definitely wasn't on the same side as the Dragon Queen, didn't seem to think highly of her. At the very least, they weren't likely friends. "She's powerful but a coward at heart. She's been away from Dragon Island for over a year. She's said to be in the elves' territory. If you want to defeat her, you'd better bring plenty of anti-poison items and a weapon sharp enough to make dragon scales feel like tofu."
Hey, this Taurus guy is quite enthusiastic. He even wrote a guide to Black Dragon for himself.
Rusalka: Oh, unfortunately, what I lack now is not a physical dragon riding strategy, but a galgame dragon riding strategy.
Sanitta: I think what you need is a lower limb amputation surgery.
Rusalka: Wouldn’t Phoenix starve to death?
Sani Tower: Defying the will of heaven.
Rusalka: "What do you think was the biggest reason why the dragons lost to the demons?"
Taurus thought for a moment and replied, "Lose a little, probably because we still have Dragon Island."
They expected it to say something like "Overconfident," "Dragon Queen is awesome," or "Terrible teammates." This response caught Sanitta and Rusalka a bit off guard. They knew they could win without Dragon Island. Based on their current understanding and intelligence, there was no other explanation other than a last-ditch effort.
It's also possible that Dragon Island itself represents an emergency measure from the Goddess of Wealth. If this power were given to the Dragon Clan, perhaps it would mean victory, but this remains to be seen.
Seeing that no one wanted to talk or trade anymore, the God of Truth tossed a thick book to each of them and said, "Since this is the last meeting, I will give you a detailed profile of some demons and Hell Lords for reference. When you encounter them on the battlefield in the future, you can fight them in a targeted manner."
Although knowledge is power, Rusalka still hopes that the God of Reality will stop messing with meal replacements and really give him some power.
"Let's adjourn the meeting. I wish you all good luck in martial arts."
He clapped his hands, and everything in the space melted into black mist, even the other three constellations around him disappeared.
However, Rusalka did not return to reality, but stayed in this empty space filled with black fog, facing the God of Truth.
The God of Truth spoke first: "Haha, there are some things I want to talk to you alone, Rusalka, who does not belong to this world."
The format of this sentence is a bit like your homeroom teacher saying to you, "Don't leave after school, come to my office." Rusalka was a little PTSD after hearing this, and subconsciously summoned the sea-breaking trident: "What?"
God of Truth: "Actually, my chief, Theresa of Virgo, is the Messenger of the End."
Rusalka was stunned. This was the first time he heard someone not mistake him for the Messenger of the End. "Oh my god, how did you figure that out?"
I never expected this. This world is so unfair. All the good people firmly believe that Rusalka is the messenger of the end. Only the seven agents of chaotic evil and the true god who is probably also in the chaotic evil camp have no misunderstanding. This makes him laugh and cry.
"My intuition tells me that if you're the Messenger of the End, it means you, someone who isn't even from this world, showed up midway to dominate the course of this world. Then a lot of things would be meaningless. I believe Alpha isn't that boring."
The God of Truth did not reveal his method of judgment. As the god with the smallest power and the most behind-the-scenes influence, Sanitita felt that he must have some special information that the other eleven gods did not have.
"Oh? You seem to know Alpha
"That's right." Seeing that Rusalka hadn't questioned the name "Alpha," the God of Truth confirmed his guess. "Theresa, as for you, plans to kill the Lord of Hell during the Final Invasion. I don't know why you're also gathering faith, but between the two of you, only one can emerge victorious, am I right?"
Rusalka: “Yeah, so what?”
Sanitita: (Why don’t you think before you speak? What if he’s trying to trick you? These twelve gods aren’t omniscient and omnipotent.)
Rusalka: "Excuse me, I retract this. Yes or no, what difference does it make?"
The God of Truth ignored Rusalka's hesitation and continued speaking at his own pace, "Although helping you, who don't belong to this world, is meaningless to me, I also don't want to see the End win. Therefore, I will give you this last bit of power. In exchange, you must not agree to any of the End's conditions, and you must never make any compromises with His messenger."
His words truly came from the bottom of his heart, for he had learned from Elune that Rusalka, a neutral unit, did not generate any Faith. Therefore, there was no benefit in the True God helping him.
But there is no logic to why He did this. Perhaps He was just like Pygmalion, simply thinking that since He couldn't win, He might as well do something else, such as if He didn't like the End and tried to stop Him.
These questions from the divine level are unknown to Sanita.
Rusalka's emotions were also very complicated, just like before in Alice City. As the agent of the Seven Sins of Chaos, he gave her his power and helped her strengthen the seal.
Now another evil being intends to entrust his power to him, hoping that he can fight against the end.
Think about it, the God of War is also a bad guy, and he also gave himself actual power.
No, is it that I naturally look like a chaotic and evil chosen one, or is it that the nine-square grid of the eternal plane is actually drawn upside down?
I saw that the lawful good god Light next door gave all his strength to the bad woman Theresa; the Lord of Time is also said to be a good god, but he almost killed me in an instant by putting a watch on my head; the Supreme Arcane Mage is even more amazing, not only does he not exist, he even didn't want to give me any magical talent; Elune, uh, Elune wanted to trick me, so she gave me an extra buff, which is a case of malicious intent leading to good results.
Is this really true? When I opened the card, the four characters "Neutral Good" were written on the faction list. Are they some Martian translation?
