The exchange just now somewhat affected Lin Qiu's operation, allowing "God of the Right Machine" to seize the opportunity and shatter the water clone.

The "God of Righteousness" is not weak; he is simply challenging the Seven Rulers.

Unfortunately, the stragglers failed to realize that the Lin Qiu was a fake, because the dream cycle began again as soon as the 'Lin Qiu' was shattered.

One second he was wondering, how could it break so easily? Is it really that fragile? It breaks at the slightest touch?

He didn't intend to kill Lin Qiu; he was even hoping Lin Qiu would bring Balzeb. How did it all fall apart?

The next second, her thoughts snapped back to her initial idea: 'Lin Qiu...why hasn't he arrived yet?'

The door opened again, and Lin Qiu came in; he'd come again and again.

Before the stragglers could say anything, Lin Qiu said, "Alright, this is the last moment!"

The stragglers were puzzled, not knowing what Lin Qiu was talking about. Lin Qiu then pointed and closed the door, releasing the fireflies!

The "God of the Right Plane" remained calm and composed in the face of the rushing Traveler, seeing him as no match for the Traveler.

However, the more they fought, the stranger and more uncomfortable it became.

"My partner is getting stronger really fast. That water clone is really strong. Luckily, I caught the opportunity to hit his real body. Why is he so angry? Wasn't this supposed to be a friendly spar?"

Chapter 486 The Defeat of the Skirmishers (CG)

For some reason, the Traveler's movement always allowed him to dodge the attacks of the skirmishers in advance, while the Traveler's attacks always found him in a difficult blind spot.

“Your actions, logic, and abilities are all within the calculations.” Nasita slowly approached the “God of the Right Path.”

"Don't joke around!" the "God of Righteousness" roared. "I am a god!"

However, Ying's predictive actions proved Narcida's words all the time; she really did calculate everything about me!

"Even you, who are in charge of wisdom, could not possibly calculate everything about the gods!"

Nasita continued walking, nodded and said, "You're right, but if I've witnessed it many times with my own eyes, then I can calculate it."

At this moment, Nasita's pupils emitted a bright green light, and within them was the shadow of the "God of Righteousness".

In the battles with the Traveler and Lin Qiu, the "God of the Right Machine" has been completely exposed and the data collection is complete. The rest is up to Narcida to calculate.

"What? You saw it with your own eyes... multiple times... what exactly did you do!?" The God of Righteousness exclaimed in shock.

Nasita did not answer. She stopped walking, slowly floated into the air, and then stopped.

Just then, the Traveler's attack disrupted the "God of the Righteous Machines'" functionality, causing the "God of the Righteous Machines" to stagger and kneel on the ground.

After kneeling, the skirmisher inside "God of the Righteous Machine" looked up and met Nasita's gaze.

Nasita smiled slightly, "Just like this, it's all about calculating all your actions."

As Nasita spoke, the surrounding scenery changed; it was no longer a testing ground, but a huge, grass-green palace—the Temple of Maya.

The scattered soldiers were shocked. What was this? Two prophets?

Nasita shook her head. "Not two. I'm just a scholar seeking knowledge, not a prophet."

"I have enough information; your future is just a simple formula in my eyes."

"You can read my mind?" The soldier's eyes widened.

"Yes, so I know what you're thinking right now, but unfortunately, that heart doesn't belong to you."

Nasita stretched out her small hand, and a force pulled at the heart of God in the chest of the soldier.

"No! Wait! This is the only one! No! No!!"

The Heart of God flew out, and the stragglers tried to reach out and grab it, but they couldn't catch it no matter what they did.

"No...don't take...my...heart..."

Deprived of the power supply from the Heart of God, the stragglers instantly broke free. On the verge of unconsciousness, they fell from the body of the "God of the Righteous Machine," their eyes still fixed on the Heart of God.

I felt my body falling, falling... My whole life has been a fall.

The soldier looked at Naxida floating in the air and slowly closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, it was as if he had returned to the moment of his birth. He was falling, crashing into the mansion, and all he could see was lightning.

That was his birth, which began with failure and a fall.

He saw the inner core of the Shadow Furnace again; it was his growth. He was blown away by the energy and fell through the air, preventing the explosion. He succeeded.

No, he still failed. He couldn't protect Tasha, nor could he protect Danyu.

Finally, he fell to the ground, lying on the laboratory as a tool, where the puppet's performance was developed to its fullest potential, and the heart of God was placed inside his body.

He succeeded! He became a god!

Barzeb, look at me! I have ascended to godhood! I am not a failure!

The stragglers lay on the ground, looking at the Heart of God floating in the air, raising their hands as if to grab it.

But his vision began to blur. Was it because his strength was fading or because of his tears?

He didn't know; all he knew was that he had failed again.

This was his end; just as at birth, all he saw were gods.

The soldier's hand fell limply to the ground. He closed his eyes, his brow relaxed.

Wise ones, no, fools, who place false gods on empty thrones, is the true god right there?

Why did the gods and wise men create me?

When a soldier is dreaming, he closes his eyes, right?

The soldier didn't understand, because as a puppet, he didn't have the ability to dream; it was Nasita who granted him the right to dream.

The first dream in life is loss...

Will I have another dream?

Probably not. As a tool, I have no value anymore.

As for me as a human being... I'm already dead.

The disaster at the heart of the furnace took away a heart for him, the heart of Niwa, and also his own; what died then was the 'Kabuki'.

Now he has lost his second heart, his second death, the one that has died is the 'skirmisher'.

But his life is not over yet, because he will experience three deaths.

The third death will occur when he finds his heart again, and he will lose it again.

Nasita looked at the stragglers who had fallen to the ground and were unconscious without saying a word; her divine eyes were devoid of emotion.

Lin Qiu: "The heartless person was defeated by the dream brought about by the heart."

"In the end, they still couldn't unveil Maya's veil."

What is the veil of Maya? Falsehood, ignorance, and mistaking nothing for something.

Only those who unveil the veil of Maya have broken through the barriers of 'selflessness' and 'attachment', achieving Nirvana.

Unfortunately, the stragglers failed to achieve this. As the "God of the Right Machine," he was shrouded in madness and falsehood, unable to see through this dream.

Nasita descended from the sky and gently patted Lin Qiu's head. "As expected of a prophet, you know so much."

Then she smiled, put her two little hands together in front of her and clapped gently, "Very smart!"

Well, I don't know why Nasita really likes to encourage and praise others.

Is it any wonder she's a little girl who could become a mother? Her educational approach is all about encouragement, like a kindergarten teacher.

She had a good grasp of child psychology, and Lin Qiu found it quite useful.

Suddenly I miss Shen He. They both patted Lin Qiu's head. One was a little girl and the other was a mature woman. One was expressionless and the other had a gentle expression. They really complemented each other.

In contrast, Nasita, with her loli-like figure, has a more 'motherly' feel.

As for whether Nasita's 'educational policy' is good or bad, Lin Qiu couldn't comment, but it was probably better than Ying's laissez-faire education.

If it weren't for Niwa and the others, the scattered soldiers would still be illiterate and unable to read.

Lin Qiu looked at Naxida and sighed.

Nasida is happy now, but she won't be so happy later.

Maya's veil doesn't just cover one person; if the Great Tree King isn't ruthlessly removed, Nasita is also someone shrouded by Maya.

Defeating the stragglers might give her confidence, but it couldn't bring her rebirth.

"Is it over?" Lei Yingdian walked over.

It seems there's no room for my 'unthinkable drag' to make an appearance.

This one is even more of a master; Shadow had no intention of breaking Maya's defenses at all.

Forget about Maya, let me try the knife!

Jokingly speaking, although Shadow did not actually thwart Maya's idea, she had inadvertently accomplished it during the five-hundred-year-long war.

Let's just say that elbows really do work; Nirvana was achieved through sheer elbowing.

Chapter 487 Afterwards

“It’s over.” Nasita took out Shadow’s Heart of God. “Here, Balzeb, your Heart of God.”

Ying didn't reach out to take it, but pointed at Lin Qiu and said, "Just give it to him."

Lin Qiu: "?"

You're really thick-skinned. Does the heart of God dislike you so much?

After the Divine Child comes Lin Qiu. As for Ying, let the 'brain' worry about things like the Heart of God.

If needed, just tell me where and who to fight.

As expected of someone whose name sounds like Yingmei, their thought processes are quite similar.

Nasita nodded, having no objection to how Shadow's Heart of God should be arranged, then turned to the skirmisher, "What about him?"

The concept of "scattered soldiers" was created by Lei's movies, so we should still ask about it.

Shadow had no intention of killing the stragglers, not even before. Now, Shadow's thoughts have changed, and he feels that many of the things he decided back then are inappropriate, including the stragglers.

The mistakes made by the stragglers are inextricably linked to the creation and abandonment of the shadow.

Shadow created another reason for abandoning the stragglers: the stragglers had feelings and could cry, and she was afraid that the stragglers, like her, could not withstand certain emotional shocks.

What kind of psychological shock was that? Lightning really died! That's why the Shadows created and then abandoned the Scatter Soldier because Lightning really died.

So why did Raiden die? Because Kanria acted recklessly.

Once you get to the bottom of it, if Canria hadn't acted recklessly, Raiden wouldn't have died, and if Raiden hadn't died, the movie wouldn't have needed a proxy.

Ray's films don't create without finding a proxy, and they abandon the scattered soldiers, so the problem lies with Canria.

As for the culprit, the Doctor? The Doctor's involvement was indeed a key link, but he can only be described as part of the game, a troublemaker.

After a series of events, Ying is now at a loss as to how to deal with the stragglers. Taking them home is not an option either. How should she face them?

My sister is back, and now we have a cook at home. We don't need anyone else to cook anymore.

But it's unlikely that we'll just let him go; oversight is still necessary. But who will be in charge?

Nasita noticed Ying's dilemma and suggested, "Then let's stay in Sumeru."

Nothing in Sumeru can escape Naxi Da's eyes.

Ying breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for your help, Buyer."

After her 'birth mother' agreed, Nasita looked at Lin Qiu and Ying.

"Lin Qiu, Ying, what do you think?"
