In the resplendent interstellar battleship, everything stopped in an instant. The dust floating in the air, the characters floating on various devices, and the maintenance robots wandering in the passage of the battleship, everything seemed to be paused instantly. Frozen, and those walking in the spacecraft gradually turned into translucent shadows, and finally disappeared into the air one by one trembling.
The surroundings became quiet, leaving only Hao Ren standing in front of Nakuru. He was still wearing the "officer's uniform", but the clothes were gradually fading and deforming, returning to his usual clothes.
"When did you start to doubt?" Hao Ren spread his hands with a smile, and repeated the question again, "I was too impatient with those questions just now?"
"I've felt something wrong since I stepped on the spaceship," Nakuru said with a icy face. This proud godslayer finally tasted the taste of failure. This kind of failure is more unbearable than being defeated and captured on the battlefield , defeated on the battlefield, he can admit that he is not strong enough, but now—he just feels completely fooled, "There are many places in this ship that are not in compliance with the regulations, and the wrong things are placed in the wrong places... I really should Realize early that this is just your conspiracy."
Hao Ren looked around. This ship was a scene he had set up based on the Partian—that is, the rebel warship captured from the Suluen Gate before. He simulated almost all the details of this ship. There was even a proper crew and some working equipment, but now it seems that an illusion is an illusion, which can fool a layman but not a real rebel soldier.
But in the end he still shook his head indifferently: "But it doesn't matter, anyway, you finally spoke up, didn't you?"
Nakuru glared at Hao Ren. This time, the contempt and contempt in his eyes finally disappeared, replaced by strong anger and hostility. Perhaps until now, this proud guy really regarded the person in front of him as a strong enemy: "Despicable and cunning! If I didn't expect to get out of this cage from the beginning, I wouldn't be fooled by you at all!"
"No, it's not that you shouldn't expect to get out of the cage," Hao Ren looked at Nakuru expressionlessly, "but you shouldn't expect to wake up at all."
Following this sentence, the voice fell. The whole world began to collapse.
This scene of illusion is over, and the magnificent "Battleship of God" collapses like yellow sand. The light faded from the field of vision like flowing water, and all sounds disappeared in an instant, leaving only hollow echoes sinking in the darkness. Nakuru—for a moment he thought he was free, but when the darkness faded, he slowly opened his eyes, only to find himself lying in that fortified cell, surrounded by a group of buzzing arcane creatures and autonomous machines.
Hao Ren stood outside the cell and looked at him. Surrounded by an intact crystal prison, all the pillars are still shining brightly, and the crystal dome is oppressed from above with a sense of desperate coercion. There was no siege or raid at all, and there was no rescue force that broke in suddenly. In the real cold reality, the god-killing clan had been wiped out 10,000 years ago—the first time Nakuru felt this so clearly .
Hao Ren folded his arms and waited for Nakuru to fully wake up, then asked calmly, "What is the origin of the universe?"
The prisoner bowed his head and said nothing, like a lifeless stone.
"Is it another god? Another powerful race? Some kind of power? Or a spiritual belief created by yourself?" Hao Ren continued to ask unmoved, "You decided after hearing the voice of 'the root of the universe' Killing God?"
The prisoner continued to remain silent.
"You've already spoken once." Hao Ren shook his head. "What's the point of holding on to it—and your race is extinct, so who are you showing it to if you insist on keeping it secret?"
Any questions he had were bound to go unanswered. Nakuru seems to have made up his mind not to say anything to anyone. Hao Ren didn't care too much when he saw this, he waved to the others. Said that today is over, and then led the people to prepare to leave this place. But before leaving, he stopped abruptly and turned his head to say the last word to the prisoner: "By the way, do you think you are awake or asleep now?"
The man in the cell finally reacted a bit after hearing this sentence, he looked up subconsciously, but then lowered his head again.
After leaving the prison area, Hao Ren immediately connected Zhuomu, who was in charge of the entire dream system: "Re-amend the dream weaving for Prisoner No. 1. In any scene, he cannot touch the props that can determine whether the current world is real or not." Or clues, and reduce those penal hallucinations. It's useless."
At this moment, Lily poked Hao Ren's arm suddenly: "Landlord, why do I feel that what we did just now was not so straightforward?"
"Lei Luo doesn't matter. How can you talk about chivalry if you want to pry things out of this kind of person?" Hao Ren curled his lips, "I regret that my acting skills were really bad at that time, and the scene layout was a bit crude, otherwise as long as I could Ask two more questions and he will tell the key things. Tsk, but it’s not bad, at least now I have some new information.”
Y'zaks couldn't help but look at Hao Ren differently: "To be honest, your idea is a bit powerful. Back then, among the hundreds of wardens under my command, none of them were as creative as you. If you can directly Manipulating the soul and being a demon may be more qualified than me... "
When Hao Ren heard this, he couldn't help but twitched his lips: "Tch, with the rhythm of your life holding the People's Daily all day long, is anyone with horns on their heads more suitable to be a devil than you?"
Elizabeth was unhappy when she heard this, and pressed the small horns on her head against Hao Ren's calf in circles: "My dad is the king of demons! My dad is the most powerful demon! Uncle Ren can't say my dad..."
Don't look at the picture of the little girl who is only more than one meter long, but the horns on her head are a genuine symbol of a high-level demon. It is really not to be underestimated when she pushes her with great strength. The shield was sparked by the little girl, and it looked like a cannon in the crotch from a distance. Hao Ren quickly held the brat down, and while holding her by the horns, he lifted the little girl into the air while turning his head and walking towards the central hall: "Go and discuss with Mulu and the others first, and see what they think about this 'root of the universe'. What do you think?"
Soon he found the three guardian giants waiting for news in the central hall. The three giants originally wanted to go to the prison area to interrogate the prisoners, but they knew that they would lose control of their emotions after seeing the traitor, so they waited here to prevent getting in the way. After Hao Ren told the three guardians about his results, they first expressed their astonishment at the successful "interrogation", and then expressed their strong interest and puzzlement at the sudden appearance of the "root of the universe" .
"You don't know what this 'cosmic origin' refers to?" Vivian frowned slightly.
"It sounds like a general title," Mulu shook his head. "It may be a race, it may be a false god, or it may be just a spiritual belief, but the third possibility is not high—because it sounds like those traitors are It gained power with the help of this 'cosmic root', so that thing should really exist."
"The guy named Nakuru did mention that the 'origin of the universe' has implanted some kind of power that can fight against divinity into the souls of the entire Nizi race," Hao Ren rubbed his chin, "But let's talk about Nizi's weapons and equipment. They also discovered runes that can fight against divinity, and you said that those runes were learned by the rebels from the goddess. These two methods are used to fight against divinity, but the sources are completely different."
"Their runes can fight against the mother's power and creation, but the use of runes is limited. After leaving the runes, those rebels are still flesh and mortal," Liemendusa nodded, "so they need more essential 'Promotion', so that they themselves can become a weapon against the gods. Now it seems that this power is not their own, but comes from a third party."
Mulu snorted: "Everything they have is stolen or cheated, and they have nothing that belongs to them at all."
"My biggest headache right now is—how did the source of the universe suddenly appear again?" Hao Ren sighed, feeling unprecedentedly dizzy. "There are already enough enemies in this universe. I really don't want to provoke any more troublesome ones."
Lily was quite open-minded: "There are already enough enemies in this universe, so I'm not afraid of having one more."
The others immediately looked at Lili with admiration. They didn't expect that one of the fish and dog couples would have such a heroic spirit. Lily shivered at the sight of this circle, and quickly shrank her neck: "I just think That's pretty cool to say..."
Hao Ren sighed: "Lily is right, if there are too many lice, it doesn't itch, and if you have debts, you don't have to worry about it. Anyway, I don't plan to be idle when I come to this dream plane—let's discuss what this 'root of the universe' is like. "(To be continued~^~)
