Chapter 1059: Chapter 740: The Path of the Gods
"Have you been a bit too indulgent lately? I can understand, after all, you’ve spent most of the past few years focusing on the development of the Night Watchers.
"Now that you finally have a chance to take a break, I get it, but could you be getting too immersed in it?
"Those history books seem to say that the downfall of kings often begins around such times."
Bobo didn’t quite understand these things, after all, she was just a rat.
She spoke these words half out of curiosity, half as an inquiry.
Kana looked helpless.
"You stupid rat, have you finished your tasks?"
"Oh my, why are you getting angry? This is an academic question." For Kana’s rare curse, Bobo not only didn’t mind but found it rather novel.
"And I feel, aren’t you about to cross that gate?"
This was what Bobo was truly concerned about.
She wondered if there was any connection between crossing the gate and mating?
After all, she didn’t understand either of these things very well and couldn’t quite figure out how the two were related. It was purely out of academic curiosity.
"Do you want to see?"
"What?! You’re too bold!" Bobo covered her mouth in surprise.
Kana pretended to punch, and Bobo quickly hugged her head and ran away.
"You fool, I’m asking if you want to see how I cross that gate and ascend to divinity?"
"Of course, I want to see it. Wait, so you didn’t want me to watch your ascension earlier... what? Hmph, I’m your loyal Mage advisor.
When you were just a deposed Prince, I have always been assisting you, and now that you’re about to ascend, you want to exclude me?
Well, does becoming a god mean a deep rift with us?"
"You’re too much."
Kana helplessly lifted Bobo and walked outside.
Bobo dangled in the air with her arms crossed, smiling brightly.
"Alright, don’t be like this. I’ve stabilized my emotions, and rationality won’t overwhelm me."
Of course, Kana understood why both Alyris, Bobo, and others close to him had been particularly active around him lately.
After all, he had inexplicably become emotionally cold recently, and many noticed the change.
Among the Night Watchers, there were no shortage of Level Fifteen experts. By going to inquire, they could naturally guess the possibilities.
So they used this simple and direct method, trying to stabilize his emotions a bit.
But there’s no need to worry anymore.
"Really? Could it be that rationality has taken over again?"
"Really, there’s no need for me to lie to you. If you’re really not convinced, why don’t you ask the Earth Dragon?
He’s the strongest next to me, also standing outside the Divine Gate, and maybe he’s already pushed it open a crack."
Compared to Kana’s rapid growth, the Earth Dragon was more steady and sure-footed. He had a deeper understanding of ascension to divinity.
Long ago, he already had his emotional anchor.
However, after that failure and betrayal millennium ago, he lost heart and chose to "let it rot."
Though he "let it rot," he never neglected the task of breeding offspring.
And when he ascended, these descendants had long become his strongest anchor.
"So are you really going to cross the Divine Gate?"
Bobo was filled with curiosity about this step of exploration. Although she didn’t think she could become a god, knowing about this aspect was very important to her.
"Don’t underestimate yourself, you have the potential to become a god."
"You... you’re eavesdropping on others’ thoughts?"
Bobo felt this was too much, thinking she needed to stay away from Kana in the future.
"I didn’t eavesdrop on purpose. I’m about to cross the Divine Gate, and some powers are beyond my control, especially those related to the Night Watchers."
For example, the channel function, some superficial thoughts of the Night Watchers near him were transmitted through the channel, and he could sense them.
During this time before crossing the Divine Gate, he couldn’t control this ability.
Similarly, there were also map and identification-related abilities.
Now, just by lightly thinking or shifting attention, he could instantly overlook the whole land.
Of course, the land here refers to places the Night Watchers have set foot.
At present, the Night Watchers have almost traveled the entire world.
As for identification ability, there’s no need to mention it.
In front of him, nothing in the world could hide.
The trouble was, currently, these abilities were out of control, and only crossing the Divine Gate could solve the problem.
His datafication power started uncontrollably expanding, then distorting.
This also reminded him, he must cross the Divine Gate as soon as possible.
"Can I really? Are you trying to comfort me?"
Bobo realized it and urgently asked.
After all, this was about becoming a god, which was hard to believe.
Kana nodded, he wouldn’t joke about such things.
"Of course it’s true, do you forget the incident with the Evil Rat?"
"Do you mean I’ll become an Evil God?"
"Why can’t you think straight at this time? It’s the Race God, do you understand Race God?" Kana looked helpless.
Bobo still seemed a bit confused.
The concept of a Race God didn’t sound hard to understand, but she wasn’t too sure about its essence.
"Both Sharp-eared Rat People and Round-eared Rat People essentially belong to the Ratman, right?"
Bobo nodded.
Be it round ears or sharp ears, they did see each other as the same race.
Even though they were enemies with each other.
"Although Sharp-eared Rat People are intrinsically evil, just as life always finds a way, even if they are considered the ’garbage bin’ of the world, they still long to break free from their current state.
"This is life’s instinct, and Round-eared Rat People are a way out for them. No life wants to remain aimlessly in chaos forever."
"Unfortunately, Round-eared Rat People were born too late. By the time they were born, the world had already passed the millennium before the peaceful Void was discovered.
Then they encountered the Blood God’s invasion, which intensified the chaos and evil of the world, causing the Round-eared type born among Ratmen to be persecuted, and the Sharp-eared Rat People didn’t recognize them.
Thus, you split into two races."
This piece of historical information Bobo was naturally aware of, Round-eared Rat People always had related records.
"Now, in reality, Sharp-eared Rat People have become nominally extinct. Not that their tribe has vanished, but at the breeding speed of rats, it won’t be long before they gradually become Round-eared Rat People.
Do you know why?
Because of the curse from the Evil Rat, he cursed that all chaos and evil would spread wantonly across the world, meaning garbage could no longer be processed in concentrated places.
In this way, Sharp-eared Rat People would naturally continue to pursue the former life’s way out and accelerate the process of turning into Round-eared Rat People.
Of course, nothing comes without loss. The more advanced life evolves, the slower breeding speed tends to be.
The original quantity advantage of rats will be significantly reduced, but this might also be an opportunity for Ratmen.
A Race God was once born among the Ratman, although an Evil God, this vacancy has indeed appeared.
And you happen to be the highest level among Ratmen, a Mage, a Scholar, and a Record Officer.
The race’s gift might descend upon you. If you could gain some insight from my promotion process, then your possibility of becoming a Race God is very high."
Listening to Kana’s explanation, Bobo fell into deep contemplation.
If there was a chance, that would be wonderful.
