After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 477 - 185 Already Feeling Tired of You

"Is that so?" the blindfolded nun asked with a voice full of concern, extending her pale, slender hand to touch Ahtal’s cheek. "Do you feel unwell?"

"It has no effect." Xi Mu replied calmly, then turned his head to look at Eden approaching, along with the Goddess of Life, Witch of Death, and others.

"It’s great to see you all again."

"You still retain the memory of the future?" The Goddess of Lies sharply noticed that Ahtal still retained memories of the future, indicating that Ahtal possessed the ability to resist Time Retrospection.

"Ragnarok ensures that time cannot interfere with my memory," Xi Mu admitted openly, explaining to the Goddess of Lies, "I clearly remember how All Gods struggled desperately to prevent me from burning down the Tree of Omniscience."

The Goddess of Lies blinked her beautiful eyes, a smile playing across her pretty face, "Why do the gods seem so weak when you speak of them?"

"Because they really are weak," Xi Mu extended his hand, making it into a fist, "Only two or three gods can make me feel anything."

Not all Gods in the high heavens are strong, despite their incredibly high base stats and their concept of immortality. But as soon as players reach the realm of Demons, they would realize how weak the gods are, with only a few gods worth remembering for the players.

Of course, this assumes that players grow in the mainstream way. If one chooses to become the partner of the God of Beauty and Art, then the game’s difficulty would rise to Hell level.

However, usually only veteran players would choose such a style of play; regular players in the normal course would either encounter the Goddess of Life or the Witch of Death, or become a Demon themselves. It’s rare for them to become partners with a weak deity.

And the reason is quite simple: temples of weak gods are very rare, and prayers aren’t very practical.

Ordinary players simply do not last until the time they could become partners.

"..." The Goddess of Lies held a subtle expression, supporting her slender waist with one hand, "And now you are the King of Ash, you have suddenly become too strong."

Xi Mu smiled: "After all, it’s power exchanged for life."

Goddess of Lies: "..."

Now, the power Ahtal had gained was based on burning humanity; to speak of it as trading his life was not wrong, as ordinary people who contract the Ash Fire descend into madness, becoming maniacs wishing to burn the world.

For Ahtal, who had become the King of Ash, it was essentially facing Ragnarok directly.

That Ahtal could maintain his humanity was already a miracle.

"Why do the gods want to stop you from burning the tree?" The Witch of Death suddenly spoke, her gaze falling on the Goddess of Life.

"It’s the arrangement of the Future Goddess." The Goddess of Life explained gently, "The Future Goddess believes that the only way to resolve Ragnarok is for the God of Omniscience to descend, so she didn’t want Ahtal to burn the tree."

She met Ahtal’s gaze.

"The Future Goddess wants to delay time, waiting for Ahtal’s humanity to burn out, forcing us to release the God of Omniscience to save the world."

"Then let’s take action together," the Goddess of Lies clasped her hands in front of her chest, suggesting to everyone, "to help Ahtal burn down the Tree of Omniscience as quickly as possible."

With the current strength of the high heavenly gods, it was almost impossible to stop them from burning the tree.

"Not everyone needs to act," Xi Mu shook his head, his gaze falling on the Goddess of Life, "Having the Witch of Death to help me is enough, the Goddess of Life doesn’t need to be involved."

"Really thoughtful," the Goddess of Lies pursed her lips and smiled slightly; she of course knew that involving the Goddess of Life would be difficult, but Ahtal, upon hearing this, immediately excluded the Goddess of Life, not wanting to make it difficult for her.

This showed that Ahtal’s humanity was sufficient.

"I will try to convince the gods to give up stopping you from burning the tree," The Goddess of Life gazed deeply at Ahtal, memorizing his current appearance in her heart, wondering why this child had ended up here, from a hero who could wield the Sword of Light to becoming the present King of Ash, this process was too tragic.

Yet she had no way to help, only able to watch Ahtal walk towards his self-destruction.

"If something comes up, remember to contact me," the Goddess of Death said nonchalantly as she turned to vanish, returning to Hell. She was extremely busy, with more and more lives ending as Ragnarok approached, almost surpassing the Goddess of Plague in spreading pestilence.

"Since it’s fine now, then I’ll go handle my own affairs," the extraterritorial demon waved and disappeared on the spot. He too had become busy recently, working to collect valuable souls into the Hall of Valor before Ragnarok arrives.

"Witch of Death, I have to trouble you again," Xi Mu smiled at the Witch of Death, "although the gods probably can’t stop my actions now."

"If the gods can’t stop you, then they will initiate Time Retrospection," the Witch of Death shook her head gently, telling Ahtal, "You should prioritize capturing the Saintess of Destiny, Suna, otherwise she will keep using Time Retrospection until death."

The smile slowly faded from Xi Mu’s face.

"After retracing time, the gods will definitely move the location of the Saintess," the Goddess of Lies analyzed calmly, "Even if we look for her, we might not be able to find her."

She gave Ahtal her advice.

"The fastest way now is to burn the tree, forcing the Saintess of Destiny to keep triggering Time Retrospection, until she reaches the limit of triggering Time Retrospection."

Since the gods’ intention is to drag Ahtal until his humanity is exhausted, to a point where they must release the God of Omniscience, then the gods will surely not allow Ahtal to easily find the Saintess of Destiny, and will design many time-delaying traps around Ahtal, until his humanity is completely burnt out.
