Not only were the audience excited, but Paimon in the story was also a little excited, just for a different reason. Paimon's excitement wasn't because of Tinari.

Paimon became excited after hearing the traveler's recent experience, because something came to mind:

["If the 'Doctor' appears, will the 'Skirmisher' strike him with lightning?"]

If those two start fighting, then we won't have to fight anymore, right? Paimon was happy, but she was terrified.

The stragglers disliked the PhD and even felt that the PhD was not worthy of being on equal footing with them.

In fact, the Doctor not only treated the skirmishers as equals, but most of the time he stepped on their heads, so it's true that the skirmishers were dissatisfied with him.

Paimon was excited at the thought that the two might fight when they met; he loved watching enemies fight each other!

Unfortunately, the doctor had already left the sea by ship and it seemed he would not have the chance to witness this scene.

Although it's a bit of a pity, the plan was at least successful, and with the doctor's departure, his influence on Sumeru seems to have disappeared as well.

After safely arriving at the Grand Bazaar and reuniting with everyone, Dixia told them what had just happened.

In Dixia's report, she mentioned that Tinari was injured.

[Sino immediately asked, "...Who did it?"]

Who did it? It's hard to say. It could be the work of a mob of fools, or it could be the work of stragglers.

[Dishia hesitated: "Uh... this is a bit... Traveler, do you think I should answer 'The Fools' or 'The Skirmishers'?"]

The traveler thought for a moment and decided, "Let's stick to 'scattering troops'."

The skirmisher naturally took the blame; you had to attack the minion with the taunt ability.

Alright, the meeting can be adjourned now.

Chapter 633 Entering the Holy See

That's enough said. The report is done, so let's adjourn the meeting.

As for saying anything to boost morale, that's definitely not something Elhesen would say. He should go find Nasita; she's very good at encouraging people.

The problem now is that everyone is going to rescue Narcida, but how do we get Narcida to encourage us to do so before we can rescue her? It's a vicious cycle.

Without Naxida, the people present would be a taciturn clerk, a talkative but quiet discipline officer, and a mute Ying.

Paimon and Desia were the only ones left who loved to talk, but they weren't exactly good at boosting morale. Instead, they were the ones encouraging the travelers to say something inspiring.

The traveler had no idea, and the scene fell silent for a moment. The awkwardness was palpable even through the screen. Fortunately, the person they were waiting for finally arrived.

[Nilu: "Huh? What are you all doing gathered here?"]

Nilu arrived at the perfect time; she wasn't there to sabotage the team, she was there to join.

In fact, one of the reasons Elhesen convened this inexplicable gathering was to report on the situation; the other reason was to 'arrest' Nel.

So the gathering was held at the Grand Bazaar. With so many familiar faces gathered there, Nilu would definitely come over and ask them what was going on.

Then Elhesen told Nel about the plan. There was no need to worry about Nel leaking the secret, because there was no possibility of cooperation between the 'artist' and the Order of the Church.

Moreover, Nel is a die-hard fan of the Grass God, just like Dina Zede, and only thinks of the Grass God... the God of Grass, so even if she doesn't want to help, she won't leak the secret.

When Elhesen told Nel about the plan, Nel blushed.

It wasn't out of shyness, but out of excitement—this plan was too daring!

Nilu is not a person who is afraid of taking risks at heart; otherwise, she wouldn't have had the idea of ​​immediately going elsewhere to hold a festival for the Flower Goddess after being reprimanded to her face by the Great Sage.

But Nel's blushing and excited expression piqued the audience's curiosity.

So what exactly is the plan? We still don't know what the plan is. Are we really just looking at it from the perspective of the Order of the Fathers?

It's the Order's perspective then, anyway, tomorrow is when they're going to implement their plan, and they'll know what it is then.

Get some rest today, and we'll deal with everything tomorrow.

[Al-Hysen muttered to himself, "...Luckily, I'm the only one home lately, it's very quiet."]

If someone else had said this, Kavi might not have understood, but when Elhesen said it, he immediately understood.

Isn't this just saying I'm noisy? The subtext is that my presence at home will disturb your sleep, right?

Kavi wanted to argue with Al-Hysen, but since they were all watching a movie together, it wasn't good to make a scene, so he held back and waited until they got home.

In fact, Elhesen and Kavi had argued before, and their relationship had been 'bad' for a while.

However, Al-Hysen genuinely considered Kavi a friend, and after their argument, he kept thinking about how to make up and kept track of Kavi's movements.

Then Elhesen found an opportunity. During Kavi's lowest point in life, Elhesen appeared and the two 'reconciled'.

Elhesen's concern for Kavi is also recorded in Kavi's story. There aren't many people who can be treated like this by Elhesen, and Kavi is quite unique.

However, while they cared for each other in their hearts, they never stopped teasing each other verbally.

After a night's rest, everyone regrouped. Now it was time for the 'final battle,' the key to the mission—liberating the Grass God.

The technology used to imprison the Grass God was not invented by humans. It was a technology used by the Great Tree King to isolate himself from external objects during meditation. However, the previous Great Sage modified it so that it could not be opened from the inside.

And perhaps only the Great Sage's console can open this device.

Of course, if you're into movies like Ray or Morax, you can ignore this.

Al-Hysen and his team chose to act today because it is the "Day of Recognizing the Hidden Treasures" of Sumeru, a time when scholars are busiest, making it the perfect opportunity to deceive others.

However, this is only the plan on the surface. The device for releasing the Little Grass God cannot be approached by 'bluffing'. As for the plan in secret, we will leave it for now.

Elhesen and the traveler went to the Order of the Church together. They entered smoothly, but only one student tried to stop the traveler, who was not a person, but Elhesen tricked him into lameness.

[Al-Hysen said, "Unrelated person? How did you arrive at such a conclusion? Such baseless reasoning is a disgrace to your intellectual school."]

Paimon: Why does it sound like they're calling my name?

"As a senior figure in the epistemological school, I believe you should possess a certain level of critical thinking ability."

The student who received El-Hysen's sharp criticism was not angry; instead, he actually began to think about the issue.

[Vilaf: "Is that so... Wait a minute, let me think about it, don't tell me the answer yet!"]

"Could it be... that the sages weren't looking for you, but rather this traveler from the very beginning? And that your long absence from the Faith Chamber was also because..."

Vilav had found the 'answer', and at that moment he seemed to be shining with the light of 'wisdom'.

I've seen this radiance before; it often appears on Mona.

However, he always appears facing Lin Qiu, which doesn't seem very wise.

[Erhesen hissed, "Shh—alright, alright, as expected of a top student of the Epistemology school, I think you guessed right."]

A simple conversation can easily fool the other person. The key to successfully fooling them is not to tell them your own thoughts, but to guide their thinking and then agree with them.

It was all thanks to Al-Hysen's kindness; otherwise, he would have been fooled into thinking, "I'm killing myself."

Paimon was completely bewildered. What exactly did that scholar understand?

[Erhesen replied, "I don't know either. Whatever reason he came up with, he convinced himself."]

Al-Hysen continued his sharp commentary: This is the pride of scholars; they always make some presumptuous conjectures in order to make themselves look smart.

More importantly, they tend to have great faith in their own assumptions, perhaps because those who pretend to know what they don't are the most confident; after all, how can you keep up the act if you're not confident?

In the end, their presumptuous guesses will only expose their stupidity.

She was drenched in sweat, and her body was trembling.

Although Elhesen wasn't referring to her, I felt stung all over.

Surrounded by gods, pretending to be a god is really hard for me to maintain my confidence! You think pretending to be confident is easy?! Sorry!

“I already told you I wasn’t fooled! That must be what he was thinking; he was even amazed that I could guess it!”

Chapter 634 Hazard's Bold Words

The scholars of Sumeru fell into deep thought. Although Elhesen had criticized him, he was right.

This is frustrating for everyone; they were clearly criticized but couldn't even refute it.

If we were to offer any rebuttal now, wouldn't that just prove Elhesen right, and all the 'damage' would be directed at us?

Finally, the scholars began to complain about Villaf, blaming his 'stupidity' for exposing their own 'stupidity' as well.

Fortunately, not all scholars were foolish; there were eyewitnesses who reported the sighting of Elhesen to the Great Sage.

The scholars breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, they hadn't been so foolish as to let the 'enemy' run rampant in their own backyard.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she immediately realized, "Is this right? This isn't right! How did we end up on the side of the Order of the Fathers?"

It's all because of my own identity; I felt so strongly about it!

Oh no! Elhesen and the Traveler have been captured! Someone, please come and rescue them!

With no one coming to their rescue and surrounded by guards inside and out, the traveler and Elhesen were at their wits' end. Perhaps the only way out now was the road of Shibarak.

No, the only way now is to try negotiating with the Great Sage.

The traveler begins by saying, "The fools are not to be trusted," attempting to sow discord between the great sage and the fools.

Ying: I cannot trust the fools, and I hate the Church; I abandon everything, deny and ridicule everything in the world.

Just as the protagonist of this line, the Scatter Soldier, said, the Traveler is really bad at sowing discord, and such pale and weak words certainly cannot shake the Great Sage in the slightest.

Hazard didn't care whether the Fools were trustworthy or not; he and the Fools were simply 'using each other' anyway.

Although in the end, Sumeru was completely devoured, at least the Great Sage believed that he had taken advantage of the other party.

Like the foolish scholar Elhesen described, he at least convinced himself.

As the one who had taken advantage of the traveler, the Great Sage naturally didn't care about the traveler's words. He even felt that he had gained something and should say thank you.

Now the Great Sage has only one thing on his mind, and that is—to create gods!

[Hazard exclaimed emotionally: "Creating gods...we are creating gods with human wisdom!"]

While Hazard was saying this, the film gave him several close-ups from various angles.

Some viewers felt uncomfortable watching it; what was so interesting about this crazy old man?

Previously, the close-ups we saw were all of handsome men and beautiful women, but now that everyone is suddenly being shown Hazard, viewers are starting to wonder if Lin Qiu has gone mad.

Although I know this is an animated film, unlike light novels which select specific characters and scenes for animation, there will definitely be such scenes.

But so what? It's all your fault, Lin Qiu.

As for Hazard's claim of creating gods with human wisdom, that's even more laughable.

Human wisdom? Does it mean that containers are God's creation, energy is God's heart, and even algorithms and computing power are achieved through God's creation?

The audience found it laughable, but Hazard didn't; he was completely absorbed in his great cause.

Hazard continued to praise the greatness of himself and others: "If humanity cannot reach 'omniscience and omnipotence,' then create gods to reveal it! This is the pinnacle of human wisdom."

"We will eventually regain the guidance of the gods, and will no longer have to grope aimlessly in the darkness of consciousness and wisdom..."

Hazard's manic and narcissistic behavior made it seem like he was about to hug himself and twist his body.

His view is that human wisdom is limited, so an 'omniscient and omnipotent' god should be created to guide humanity; this is the essence of human wisdom.

The audience was completely baffled by this inexplicable logic, feeling that his thoughts and actions were contradicting himself. What was this about the left and right brains fighting each other?

The audience was a bit confused. Did the Great Sage want to prove human wisdom or human incompetence?

The underlying logic of the great sage's words is full of contempt for human wisdom, as if to say that human wisdom is nothing special and only gods possess true wisdom.

But he also said that his actions were to prove human wisdom, which is the pinnacle of human wisdom.

To deny humanity from the bottom of one's heart while claiming it's for humanity's sake—that's not wisdom, that's pure idiocy.

Calling this a 'great achievement'? If you're bad at this, practice more! All this talk about achievements and that makes it useless even if you're a master craftsman, it's just stupid.

But Hazard didn't think so; he thought he was incredibly awesome.
