Chapter 1360: Chapter 1105: Gratitude for Survival After the Calamity
As this was not his first time dealing with the Decrees of God, Long Yi had now become quite familiar with the process. He gained a great deal of information from Simu’s memories, including how she acquired the Leviathan Worm and how she constructed both Whitestar and Blackstar. Of course, the most important information was about the artifact.
However, after Long Yi had understood the situation, he realized that the so-called artifact was no mere simple device. Instead, it was two interconnected mechanisms, each as enormous as a planet!
Once he had fully read these memories, the God Eater practically immediately crushed Simu to pieces. She didn’t even have a chance to struggle.
After dealing with Simu, Long Yi turned around and saw that the Divine Envoy girl was still maintaining her silence. Long Yi looked around and realized that this must be an issue with the Decrees of God, so he immediately dissolved the Decrees of God. The Divine Envoy girl then almost instantly returned to normal.
"Phew—I really don’t know what more outrageous thing you could do; you even managed to control the Decrees of God," the Divine Envoy girl said nervously.
"Are you that afraid of this thing?" Long Yi asked with a smile.
"Since I’ve already freed myself from it, I don’t want it to target me again," the Divine Envoy girl said.
"Freed yourself from it? That means..." Long Yi suddenly looked quite suggestive.
"It means that I’m beginning to recover my memories—the memories I have as a God," the Divine Envoy girl said.
Divine Envoys are the individual entities that God split into. Theoretically, when these entities begin to merge, they should become the same being they were originally. Inside this planet, there were tens of thousands of Eternal beings, implying the existence of an equal number of divine consciousnesses. The so-called divine consciousness is essentially the consciousness of God. Originally, God was punished by the Decrees of God and split into nearly one hundred thousand parts. Now, with ten thousand parts present on this single planet alone, it meant the Divine Envoy girl had recovered more than one-tenth of the consciousness and memory she had as a god!
"So, how do you feel now?" Long Yi asked.
"A relief akin to surviving a great disaster, accompanied by the confusion of being unable to string my memories together coherently. It’s quite clear, though, that my original plan succeeded. I evaded the parasitism of the Divine Worm and even freed myself from the control of the Decrees of God," the Divine Envoy girl said.
Long Yi instinctively nodded, then his eyes suddenly widened.
"Hold on, splitting into one hundred thousand pieces was actually your plan!?" Long Yi asked incredulously.
"Of course, as the once-in-a-billion-year genius of the Divine Realm, this minor issue only took me ten thousand years to solve!" the Divine Envoy girl said with pride.
"It seems I’ve just learned about something quite amazing," Long Yi said.
"It’s not really a big deal," the Divine Envoy girl said, struggling to hide the smug look on her face. "Compared to your Giant race creating humans, such an unpredictable form of life, what I’ve done is really nothing."
"I initially thought the God who created our multiverse would be a very solemn person," Long Yi suddenly felt the image of a magnificent God crumbling inside his mind.
"Are you joking? I’m not even one million eight hundred thousand years old, I’m still underage!" the Divine Envoy girl exclaimed excitedly.
Smack!
Long Yi slapped his forehead hard, at a loss for words.
"Alright then, is there anything else you want to add about your artifact?" Long Yi asked.
"Absolutely not, I don’t remember much about that device. Um, but what if I told you that in fact, you Giants helped me build it, would you believe me?" the Divine Envoy girl said.
"I believe it. Now, even if you tell me that I, Long Yi, am actually a person from the Heavenly Kingdom, I would believe it," Long Yi said.
"Well, that kind of thing, it’s a bit difficult to say," the Divine Envoy girl said, staring into Long Yi’s eyes.
Uh, Long Yi again didn’t know what to say.
"So, what should I call you? I can’t always call you the Divine Envoy girl, right? You should have a name of your own, shouldn’t you?" Long Yi asked.
"Simu," the Divine Envoy girl said, "My name is Simu. As soon as I obtained that false god’s divine consciousness, this part of my memory also returned. My name is Simu, the one hundred and thirtieth Creator God of the Divine Realm, Simu," Simu said with a smile.
"Long Yi, possibly a Giant," Long Yi also introduced himself symbolically.
Then, looking seriously at Simu, Long Yi said, "I have a question to ask you now."
But Simu shook her head and said, "If you’re asking about why the Dragon Clan attacked the Giants, I can honestly tell you that I don’t know whether it was my command or not, because at that time, I had already gone insane."
Rolling back time, once Turun returned to his golden battle cruiser, he immediately ordered it to flee, because he was well aware that everything he had done had failed. But when he arrived at the control room, he saw Ika standing among all the Divine Worms, a smile on her face.
"Teleport! Teleport now!" Turun did not pay attention to Ika, nor did he ask why she was there. Instead, he directly ordered the golden battle cruiser to teleport. The golden battle cruiser was controlled by automatic golems, so no one could control it without Turun’s command.
After several consecutive teleports, Turun rushed in front of Ika.
"Ika! What have you done!" When Long Yi suddenly woke up at that time, Turun immediately realized that there was nothing simple about this matter.
"It’s nothing serious, just a precaution to prevent you from banding together and forcibly prying into my memory, so I altered my own memory a bit. I made you believe that was the complete way to deal with Long Yi," Ika said with a sneer.
"You bastard, do you realize that we have not only lost tens of thousands of Eternal bodies but also lost a major support? The power of Simu will greatly enhance Long Yi!" Turun roared.
"But I don’t care because I still have a way to deal with Long Yi. My method is still effective, and thanks to your help, you made Long Yi’s God Eater devour too many of our kin, so the next time I face Long Yi alone, I will gain unprecedented power!" Ika said proudly.
"You bastard," Turun roared.
"Whether I’m a bastard or not doesn’t matter. I just have one question for you, do you want to join me?" Ika said slowly.
As a Divine Worm himself, Turun was very clear about the traits of their race; ambition and wisdom would grow with the number of their kin they devoured. The initially powerless Ika was cautious, but now with power and the means to confront Long Yi, how could the other Divine Worms not obediently listen?
"Yes, I will join." Turun had no choice but to lower his head; he had no other option.
"Very well, then we can proceed to the next plan," Ika said.
"What plan?" Turun asked.
"The Divine Worm cleanup plan. Starting now, we begin to actively search for all the Divine Worms in this plane, gather them together, and once again lure Long Yi into the trap. This time, I will take action personally and completely kill Long Yi. I will take over Long Yi’s body and become the true god of Trinity! Then, I will return to the Divine Realm, and you, my kin, will share my divine power and glory!" Ika proclaimed loudly.
Ultimately, you just want to ascend to godhood for yourself.
That’s what Turun thought to himself, but at that moment, he had no choice but to do as Ika said.
Long Yi did not immediately seek out the artifact; instead, he called for Suolin.
"I want to figure out what exactly happened here in the past, is there a way?" Within the Silent Star, Long Yi asked Suolin. Looking around at the densely packed Eternal bodies that had been opened, Suolin felt a sense of claustrophobia, although it was just a hallucination of course.
"My time control device can perform relatively precise time jumps, but we don’t know when these things appeared. If luck is not on our side, we might have to wait here for a few hundred years," Suolin said.
"So, what if I use time regression?" Long Yi asked.
"Time regression will consume your life, have you forgotten?" Suolin said.
"But look." Long Yi passed the Giant tablet to Suolin for a glance, a massive number at its end was increasing continuously.
"What is this?" Suolin asked.
"My theoretical lifespan," Long Yi said.
"But why is your theoretical lifespan skyrocketing?" Suolin asked in confusion.
"Because he is the true god of Trinity. Unless something goes wrong, he should not die," Simu emerged from the side of the strata, having just gone to inspect the planet.
"Long time no see, Divine Envoy girl," Suolin greeted with a smile.
"She is now called Simu," Long Yi said.
"Simu? Isn’t that the name of one of the Divine Worms?"
"Yes, but as it happens, that’s also the name of the Creator God who created our multiverse, Simu," Long Yi said.
"It’s an honor," Suolin said very sincerely this time.
"Actually, you needn’t take me so seriously. I reckon that even if I fully recover, I probably won’t have the same power as before. And logically, there should only be one true god per universe, but now as far as I know, there are already two true gods, just Long Yi and Little Zi. If I can recover my power in the future, that would make three true gods, which is quite different from what I originally learned," Simu said, her face full of confusion.
"Existence is reasonable. If it doesn’t fit with your knowledge, it means your knowledge is wrong," Long Yi said with a smile.
"Makes sense!"
Long Yi was very keen to know who had brought the Silent Star here, or more precisely, who had brought the Eternal bodies within the Silent Star. And when he couldn’t find the source, the heaven-defying ability of time regression came in handy.
Long Yi held both the Giant tablet and the Giant scepter in his hands, then summoned the Fine Gold avatar, as theoretically only Fine Gold could remain stable during time travel. After that, Long Yi entered the Divinization form, his large cloak covering his whole body with Divine Text flowing.
"Time, regress!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
