What did you do with the dice?

Unfortunately, the code failed to connect. The other party did not give him a piece of fried chicken or hand him 50 yuan. Instead, he said in a very formal manner: "Hello, Rusalka, I am the God of Light, as people call him. This is the second time we meet."

As the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar. After the third time, she was already a little tired. Rusalka crossed her legs and pointed at the Light God in front of her, who must have conjured up the most amiable and friendly image in her mind. She said: "Just mail me your blessings. Anything else?"

Light God: "I already have your blessing. This time I used my last points to come to you. Actually, I want to talk to you about Theresa, the messenger of the end, before the end of the game."

Rusalka continued, pretending to be a bit naive, "If you insist on marrying her to me, that's fine, but she must first give me the power of faith from the Goddess of Pleasure as a betrothal gift. I can give her three quilts from the Supreme Arcane Mage in return."

Sunny Tower: (Please choose your ending: Refrigerator/Yangtze River/Fertilizer/Concrete floor of Wright Cathedral.)

Rusalka answered without hesitation: (Choose the long answer from the three short answers. I will live and die with the infrastructure.)

God Light clearly had no sense of humor or sarcasm. Like a cold AI that could only recognize keywords, he spoke his side of the story to himself: "Theresa was originally the Chosen One of the Goddess of Pleasure, but was later chosen by me and became my Chosen One. Then, she was bewitched by power and became the Messenger of the End. She began to study her own power system that could cut off the supply of holy light, and conducted experiments in some villages in Esdi. People called it the 'Severance Curse'."

"However, if she cultivates this power, her body will become unable to store holy light."

"During the experiment to break the curse, a resistant individual was born. That was Rewi Alley. So Theresa shared her power and faith with her, and Rewi Alley became my second chosen one."

Sanitieta noticed the key point in the conversation and asked Rusalka, who was already a little confused, "Cut off the supply of holy light?"

God Light nodded. "That's right. The power of Holy Light isn't a blessing or faith, but rather a retrieval trigger mechanism. As long as a living being's physical strength, combined with their objective behavior throughout their lives, indicates a good orientation, and they are willing to believe in me, they can activate this mechanism and gain access to the Holy Light I've established on the terminal."

In order to help Rusalka understand the meaning of His words more intuitively, God Light stretched out his hand and shone a light spot to contact it.

The next moment, Rusalka saw an extremely huge ball of light, with countless silk threads extending from it, connecting the light spots representing the believers to its body.

From time to time, a light spot would go out, and the silk thread would disappear with it. A new light spot would appear, and then the silk thread would connect to it.

When Rusalka saw the model itself, she naturally understood it immediately.

Ah, this is actually a sandbox mode. Such a western fantasy style power system has suddenly turned into a sci-fi style.

So the essence of breaking the curse is to cut off this thread. And the reason Hydra was lost and recovered before was not because of faith, but because he created a small account and reconnected to the server?

Rusalka was a little curious: "Then how far they can use the Holy Light? Is the level also determined by the mechanism?"

Light God denied Rusalka's statement: "No, I will only grant them access. As for how far they can develop this power, it depends entirely on themselves. I believe that infinite creatures inherently have infinite possibilities. I will not waste points to interfere with these possibilities."

According to thousands of years of history, God Light has never taken back this power. Once people obtain the holy light, they will never lose it again.

So, the unprecedented effect of the Severing Curse, which deprives people of the Holy Light, is what terrifies the Esdi people?

But it would be a good idea for you, the God, to give the power to humans and let them exercise their good will instead of interfering on your part.

Rusalka: "So, is Theresa still connected?"

Wright God: "Continuous."

Rusalka was also puzzled after hearing this: "No, my Lord God, she's already like this, you know she's the Messenger of the End, why don't you ban her?"

Light God: "Because she didn't violate my detection mechanism, judging by her behavior, she still belongs to the good camp. Of course, I can't modify my entire system for her alone. You have to understand one thing: destruction is easier than construction, and construction is easier than maintenance."

"If we want this world to have a stable and orderly system of goodness, we must rely on a screening mechanism that is objective and fair to everyone."

That God Wright is indeed very free-range.

Rusalka: "Even if Theresa is secretly researching a system against the Holy Light, is she actually targeting you as her imaginary enemy, and is ultimately a villain who wants to destroy everything?"

Light: "That's right. Without her, Esdi wouldn't be Esdi. This is the key that neither the God of Contract and Law nor the Goddess of Pleasure grasps. A purely Lawful Good being cannot rule a Lawful Good system."

"Perhaps Theresa has done many bad things in her life, and has had many selfish actions, but her results are always positive. She is the only recognized leader who can unite the people of Esdi, and she is the one who made Esdi the most powerful Lawful Good nation in the world. This is why I believe her existence is necessary."

"Facts have proven that my conclusion was correct. In the final demon war, the Esdi camp led by her not only repelled the final demon army, but also helped me achieve results second only to those of the God of War and Elune."

"Just because she's the Messenger of the Apocalypse and will inevitably choose to switch sides in the end, does that completely negate the huge positive impact she's had on our camp against the Apocalypse so far?"

Rusalka’s focus is always very strange: (Oh my god, Elune is now ranked second, is she so powerful?)

Sanita: (Of course. She was the first to annihilate the entire demon vanguard army in the Elf Forest, forcing the End to forcibly open the portal. Her overall contribution must be high.)

(And later on, they used the forest terrain to support Esdi, so this part of their contribution can also be attributed to Elune. In addition, Elune also had a "quietly stealing the power of faith" build in the early and mid-game. This should have been the first to die, but she didn't die and even stood up. It's natural that she can be ranked second.)

Rusalka: (No, if Elune takes first place, if I were the God of War, I'd really have to fight the Supreme of Arcane Mage offline. How can I tolerate this? Can't he just stand for Yuebanjimi first?)

After Rusalka finished complaining, he always felt that the words of God Light in front of him made him feel strange.

He admitted that what Light God said made sense, and that supporting Theresa was necessary, but as an informed individual, he certainly didn't agree. "Then you came to me, are you just trying to brag about how good your vision is?"

God Light: "No, of course not. Now everything is over for us twelve gods. After all, no one's believers can kill Theresa, the messenger of the end, to get extra points."

"But because of your consideration for me, the Chosen One, in this game, my personal dislike for the End's approach, and my recognition of the efforts of the people of Esdi in building a gathering circle that satisfies me, I will tell you all the information I can share privately."

"As for what choice you will make in the end, I will not interfere. After all, it is your own business. I am willing to believe that you will defeat the Messenger of the End."

God Light told Rusalka that in fact every living or non-living thing in this world was made of "creation points".

The games between gods have nothing to do with creation points; they just enjoy the process.

Among them, the most special individual is Alpha.

In fact, the other gods don’t know much about this person’s origin. They only know that Alpha will always hold games and let different numbers of gods participate.

Until one day, the End discovered the essence of creation points, and began to join the game continuously, devouring these points to strengthen itself, trying to replace Alpha.

"Then why did He do this?"

But even the god Light didn't know the answer to Rusalka's question: "I don't know. Every god has different ideas. Perhaps He is tired of such rigid rules of the game."

No matter what, among the gods there are those who support the end and those who oppose it, but no matter what, Alpha is still the greatest at the moment, so the game continues in this form.

But these have no direct relationship with Rusalka. The reason why God Light explained the background of this game is because what He is going to tell Rusalka next will determine the fate of the entire eternal plane.

"Alpha is absolutely fair. He will ensure that the entire game encompasses the goals desired by all gods. Because of this nature, the conditions for victory at the end are different from ours."

"And now, what I can tell you is that we, the Twelve Gods, have entered the settlement phase, but the game is not over yet."

"From our perspective, this means that Teresa is the final trump card, and her goal is to destroy everything."

"She is currently digesting the power of the Lord of Time and the strength bestowed upon her by the End. She will soon come to find you. You must be prepared. You can then use Aerie and the other chosen believers. They are the few in the world qualified to fight Theresa. I can give you a list if you need it."

Rusalka: "Wait a minute, wait a minute. If she wants to destroy the world, why did she choose me first? Shouldn't you pick on the weak first?"

Light God: "Destroying the world is an option. It doesn't require the physical means you stereotype. All you need to do is gather the power of thirteen gods."

That is indeed very convenient. It turns out that such a big world can be destroyed at will in the eyes of these gods.

When I think about it this way, I do feel a sense of frustration as a low-dimensional creature.

"Then your reminder is useless. I will have to face her sooner or later, right?"

"No, don't you know?"

For the first time, Light God expressed a hint of confusion. "You and the other chosen creature don't exist in this world. Therefore, you don't belong to this game. Winning or losing won't affect you. Even if Theresa chooses to help the End devour the entire world, you won't be destroyed along with them. When the game is over, you will naturally return to where you belong."

Huh?!

Rusalka: Oh my god, so that’s how it is. The Ending almost tricked me into falling for it!

Sanitta: See, I told you He was very bad.

"Does that mean that if we die, we will automatically return?"

"That won't happen. After all, you are participating in the game."

Wright God said the last sentence that shocked both of them:

"Furthermore, both of your life forms have long been transformed by Alpha using his Creation Points. The one you were traveling with was relatively okay, but you, Rusalka... well, quite complex. Being able to combine so much power together without collapsing is truly Alpha's truest form. He is the most creative of us all."

Bastard Alpha, what the hell did you do to my body!

Oh, don't weigh my life form!

"That's all I can say. I hope you can make a choice you won't regret."

Rusalka woke up from the carriage and felt her body up and down.

call--

Fortunately, at least the job is still there.

Chapter 520: The most pro-lawful good episode

When Rusalka opened her eyes, she saw three cats and Ai Li sleeping soundly folded up against the wall.

Phoenix lay on Ai Li, with a shadow warrior on top as a blanket and a water bed underneath. It was cool and soft, and the formation was pretty good.

But Rusalka was indeed still very confused. For example, Light God had been talking for a long time, but apart from making him feel more depressed after learning more about the truth of the world, he still didn't understand what other choices he had. Anyway, it sounded like he was going to fight with Theresa. Didn't he mean that he should rush to Light Cathedral and kill her before she had fully digested her abilities?

Sanitta: (I think what He meant was that you could just obey Theresa and then survive and return to Earth. After all, for both of us, this would be a win-lose situation, and we might even make a small profit.)

Because judging from what Light God said, their physical condition is already irreversible, and all the creation points they absorbed before can be brought back to Earth in vain.

As for what kind of reaction they would cause after returning like this, that was not something these gods would care about.

In the urban soldier king segment of the novel, even the earth exploded. Perhaps to them, it was just like a small cell in the human body mutating, which was insignificant at all.

Rusalka: (Then Phoenix and the like are gone, right?)

Sanitita: (Do you expect them to empathize with us? They might not even have concepts like "family," "friends," or even "relationships." Look at the word he used when he mentioned Aerie and the other chosen ones. He used the word "use." This shows that although he is a "lawful good" god, he is not a lawful good in the microscopic sense of human common sense, but a macroscopic one.)

(So ​​from His perspective, as long as a complete "Esdi" can be established, then in order to maintain this system, the gains and losses of individuals within it can be unimportant.)

(So, in His eyes, we both have two choices. One is to abandon good intentions for our own sake and choose to submit to Theresa and the End, making a small profit and leaving, achieving a cunning "win-win" situation. The other choice is in line with His functions and ideas, and He is willing to risk sacrificing everything he has gained to fight against Theresa and the End, in order to save the entire Eternal Plane collective.)

He glanced at Maomao and Ai Li beside him, as well as the other people in the carriage in front. Perhaps people pursue different things in their hearts, but at least everyone lives happily here. No one feels that this world or themselves has no need to exist.

Then ask yourself, you definitely cannot give up their choice.

If I still have any memories when I return to Earth, I will feel guilty about my past life. It would be better for me to just die.

Rusalka felt that it was better for her to be an inferior low-dimensional creature.

There is no need to think about any of the games or interests. I level up so hard just for my own pleasure.

The Messenger of the End? Humph, I will make sure she never returns!

Sanita: (Yes, that’s why you’re human. You’ll do things that objectively have no benefits for you and only risks, because you believe that emotional value is also value.)

Rusalka: (Hehe, brother, I just thought of a pun. If that’s the choice, then I’ll be God’s chosen one.)

Sanitita: (You are already a genius if you can tell such a cold joke.)

If you think about it carefully, it seems that the older the gods I meet along the way, the shallower their emotions.

Look at the goddess of wealth, the goddess of nature Elune, and so on, and then compare them with the god of light and the god of war Krampus.

The styles of the two sides are completely different. The former makes a fuss when rolling the dice, and screams and shouts when losing a little. The latter is simply a ruthless efficiency machine that only cares about gains and losses and has no emotions.

The Supreme Lord of Arcane, Leviathan, the Lord of Time and the Seven Sins, they have a different style of painting, they are just for their own fun, their personalities are also very strange, and it is difficult to evaluate their qualifications.

In comparison, the End is really special. He has his own emotions, can play tricks, can taunt, can even make mistakes and pranks, and he has a strong objective purpose and a very high game strategy.

If you think about it this way, it might not be completely unreasonable that some gods would support him in usurping the throne.

God knows what kind of lifestyle these gods who treat the world as a game live when they are not playing games, and what they are pursuing with the help of the game itself.

----

The carriage with the Pearl Tear flag crossed the border and arrived at the border post of Esdi. After showing their identification, a team of guards saluted Rusalka very respectfully and asked if they needed someone to escort them to Wright City.

"Are you here to discuss post-war disaster relief and reconstruction with our Great Saint?"

Rusalka: "No, no, no, we are not going to Wright City, and we don't need an escort. I'm here for tourism."

A country's Grand Duke and war heroes come to Esdi for tourism, at this time?

Isn’t it necessary to have a post-war victory parade to appease the people?

Sanita: "After all, we have great trust in the security environment in your Esdi."

I have to say that speaking with high emotional intelligence is different. The charm of language, coupled with a little bit of Rusalka's fame, immediately dispelled the suspicion of those guards.

"Oh, then I wish you a pleasant journey. However, I still suggest that you go to Light City. It is the most prosperous pilgrimage site in Esdi. Recently, the Saint Lady took advantage of the opportunity of defeating the demons to hold a grand thanksgiving day. It will be held in half a month."

The soldier sighed, "It's a pity that I have work to do and can't go there. I can only wait until it's over and go back to the tavern in the small town to watch the replay of Tuo Ying Ball."

Oh, Magic Rubbing has this function.

Sanita: "Okay, I appreciate it."

The group passed the checkpoint smoothly.

"The next area is unknown to me. I'll have to trouble you, Ai Li, to show us the way and act as our tour guide."

Hydra, who was sitting on the bear's back, suddenly said, "No need. If it's Esdi, I'm much more familiar with her than she is."

Although she had been working for Theresa behind the scenes, she was still the de facto Pope of the Esdi Inquisition and had lived in this land for nearly two hundred years, which was more than ten times longer than Arie's experience in playing Holy Light. She was indeed like a living map.
