Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 2448: Chapter 2443: The Prophet Is Dead (54)

There was actually an unexpected gain.

Originally intended to ask the Prophet a question, but the person involved was already unable to answer, and someone else stepped in to help instead.

Although the content was a bit abstract, Fu Qian had no complaints at that moment and enjoyed the feeling of his cerebral cortex being stimulated.

Noble family bloodline, people familiar with idol dramas all know, being a bit chaotic is utterly normal.

"I see, in short, you came here, discovered the madness of this place, and then prepared to replace it before me. The ’Eternal Night’ plan is the specific way, and you even formed a team for it..."

Though gratified, it was still impolite not to respond. Fu Qian continued walking and briefly summarized Ah Wei’s actions.

"I have to say, you have quite an eye for talent. The people you found are all quite capable, including Sophia. Where did you discover her?"

He even didn’t forget to give a slight commercial praise, showing considerable recognition for the small team that so far seemed to consist of only four people.

"On the other side of the door, same as me."

Seeing that Fu Qian had already turned half a circle, the Ghosts following behind had been spun into a vortex.

Besides the tattered and heroic armor, there were no signs of discomfort evident.

For a moment, Ah Wei seemed at a loss on how to comment, responding to the question with slight caution.

...

On the other side of the door, the fireless Unseen Hillock, did those sent here fall there first?

So does it indeed represent the "reality" as understood by Brother Ji Feng?

Ah Wei’s answer was not unexpected, and Fu Qian was also silently reviewing the experiences of the past two times.

It seemed that Ji Feng indeed heeded the treatment advice.

The vibrant future seen in Yuan Fang’s eyes had been defined by Him as a false facade, while the eternal cage on the other side was the reality.

By constructing such a Spirit World, they maintained their own mental state.

But so to say, isn’t the meaning of "Eternal Night" to completely remove the false facade and recognize reality?

Doesn’t sound like too severe a situation?

Even if the cognitive balance is broken and gives Ah Wei a chance to find mental flaws to usurp power, isn’t that just Ji Feng’s little trouble? Isn’t the Archive being a bit too sensitive?

A bit of madness is just madness; besides the hidden danger of the Mother of the Gospel, does the Archive have any additional expectations for this place?

And along the way until now, the phrase "end the darkest night" is not simple. It’s hard to believe it merely refers to destroying Ah Wei’s plan; rather, it feels more like directly eliminating the "reality" side.

Isn’t Ji Feng even crazier then? It seems the Archive isn’t concerned about His mental health... does it have special meaning?

"So is Sophia a born ’Mother’? Like the enlightenment the others received?"

Feeling the peculiarity of the situation, Fu Qian continued to confirm a small detail.

"Yes, I’ve thought long and hard about how to use that."

It turned out that Sophia’s motherly grace over the world was indeed a gift from joining this place, and this was indeed the core of Ah Wei’s plan.

And it truly succeeded, using this method to provide the natives the potential to trigger Ashfall.

As for himself, concerning this Spirit World created by Ji Feng, he was indeed an obvious foreign object.

So much so that even though he had been amicable along the way, he was still a stimulus to Ji Feng’s mental state, ultimately causing a precarious situation to be triggered.

Surely the previous notion of "open strategy" was correct. Regardless of whether he came or not, did it or not, Brother Ah Wei was bound to win—snap!

Sighing, Fu Qian raised his right hand, swinging it directly at the space ahead.

Though seemingly empty, it felt like hitting a target, even generating a sound, as if an invisible object was slapped away.

...

Has it truly reached the point of near completion, able to influence even Demigods to this extent?

Without stopping his steps, Fu Qian rubbed his palm, savoring the sensation.

It was no Ghost, but a physical entity.

The thing just now, using the cover of mist, approached quite insidiously.

If he hadn’t struck, it might have collided with him.

And the smoothness of the strike wasn’t due to perception, but because he discovered an invisible line pointing directly ahead.

Indeed, the effect of the Thread of Concern, that thing was a Lord.

A Lord certainly had no reason to act against him at this time, much less having been trapped in the pocket earlier.

Perhaps the side effects of Ashfall on the Demigods finally manifested; although not asleep, like those Ghosts, they started heeding Brother Ah Wei’s orders.

It can only be said that this Death God’s Apostle, indeed, succumbed to the pressure, trying to establish a victory in a way he could understand.

Fu Qian sighed and continued forward.

"What exactly do you want to do? Is this some kind of ritual?"

The next moment, a figure unexpectedly blocked the way ahead. As expected, it was the Lord who had just shown might.

His expression was wooden, mouth opening and closing, reciting Ah Wei’s lines.

...

"A ritual? Heh heh heh."

The sudden attack just now was instantly solved, indeed this pointless walk around the lake caused enormous psychological pressure on Brother Ah Wei, compelling wild thoughts.

And though actually, there was nothing like that, who was Expert Fu? He immediately let out a series of malicious chuckles.

"You certainly have no reason to tell me, so I look forward to seeing how you intend to kill them all."

Trained by Lord Pa Qi, the laughter indeed had tremendous impact, instantly chilling the Lord’s voice and electric sparks appeared on his body.

Ah Wei’s meaning was straightforward, referring naturally to the Demigods similar to the Lord.

Be it righteousness or evil, believed under the influence of "Eternal Night," they were gradually turning into puppet states like the Lord.

Even if he defeated one, others would continue to surge forward.

Much less the fact that earlier it seemed, the Lord not only had various means but also was hard to defeat even under blessing, this too must have been the confidence that led Ah Wei to act this way—boom!

Almost turning into an electric ball, the Lord with his firepower at full was charging again, extremely boldly.

Met with was an unremarkable punch.

Without transformation or charge, at that moment Fu Qian’s action resembled an old man doing morning exercises in a park.

Yet the scorching electric spark stopped flowing in an instant, seemingly stuck.

Swoosh——

Until Fu Qian passed by, directly turning into flying ash and dissipating.

"Is this okay?"

Not forgetting to confirm with Ah Wei, Fu Qian seemed to have completed a trivial task.

With situations like that where they couldn’t be killed, besides swallowing them and attempting digestion, what other solutions were there?

As someone accustomed to having backup plans, before the Lord got saved, Fu Qian had already been contemplating this and truly arrived at a simpler conclusion—

Why get tangled with addition and subtraction, just let the data overflow.

The punch just now seemed ordinary but had already exceeded the Demigod range.
