Chapter 320 Gradually unable to tell...
【“Lin Liu! What did you do?!”】
[Li Ziliang, who was filled with shock and anger, quickly found the shogunate and questioned you, the culprit! ]
[This is not difficult to guess, because the only ones in this world who have the ability to mass-kill mortals are you and your New Heaven.]
[But the shocked and angry Li Ziliang couldn't understand why you had always been a holy body of cattle and horses who worked hard for the people. Logically, it was impossible for you to harm people. But why did you do such a thing now? ! ]
[Under confusion and shock, his emotions were out of control...]
[“Shut up! You old bastard with grey beard! How dare you question the Holy Lord!”]
[“Are you worthy of the kindness of His Majesty the Holy Lord?”]
[“It is indeed the remnant of the Heavenly Court! Not loyal at all!”]
[A group of true gods who were extremely loyal to the Blood Godson immediately stepped forward and angrily rebuked him, pinning him to the ground.]
[But this could not quell Li Ziliang's rage at all! ]
[In his eyes there was anger, confusion, sadness, and... rage at being deceived! ]
[“Why! Why! Why did you lie to me!”]
[He roared: "Why do you use high-sounding words to deceive people! What on earth do you want to do!"]
[Faced with his question, you, who had just woken up from that last dream, couldn't help but hesitate...]
【But you didn’t tell him much, just closed your eyes: “I have my reasons.”】
[“What reason! Is your reason to massacre innocent people?”]
[He is still cursing, but you don’t want to listen anymore, so you say calmly: “Put him in jail.”]
【"yes!"】
【…】
[Every day that follows, you will have to send dreams to countless mortals who are unaware of the situation. In the name of a once-in-a-century sermon, you will build a large dreamland with the gods.]
[When the dream is formed, you will tell them all about the "alarm clock"...]
[Time and again, countless curious and excited mortals fall into unconscious death due to your deception! ]
[As they died, your anxiety became more and more serious, because the dream world still showed no sign of breaking apart.]
[This shows that the dreamer is not among these people...]
[As you kill more and more, you gradually understand a fact: Finding the dreamer is like looking for a needle in a haystack. All you can do is foolishly drain the sea water! ]
[This is an absolutely stupid method.]
【But... you have no choice. 】
[This is not only because you have no other options, but also because...]
【Because you can't turn back! 】
[We have killed so many people and paid the price. If we give up halfway, then those who have already died will have died in vain.]
[Besides, you know that the dreamer will be discovered sooner or later, and you will succeed as long as you keep going. In this case, why don't you just go all the way? ]
[The most important thing is that you firmly believe that as long as you successfully reach reality from the dream, those who died will be considered alive. They will wake up from the falsehood and return to reality, and then gain immortality in the "eternal wilderness"! ]
[So you can only keep killing, and you must keep killing. Only when you kill your way to the end, can you know whether these guesses and methods are reliable or not...]
【…】
[In the 263rd year of the New Heaven, you started this massacre that was destined to go nowhere.]
[Or it can't be called slaughter, you stubbornly call it "redemption", believing that the dead are not dead, they just went to another world, in another world, everything is like heaven, they will get bliss and longevity there! ]
[You are becoming more and more like a cult leader...]
[The next year, you slaughtered... you saved the entire Southern Continent! ]
[The next year, you slaughtered... you saved the entire Xiniu Hezhou! ]
[The next year, it was Uttarakuru...]
[After just four years, you and more than 800 True Gods stayed on the last island of Dongsheng Shenzhou.]
[You, saved all the mortals and monks in the four continents. In the entire world, only you and the gods under your command are left...]
Standing on this small island, the white-haired Lin Liu gazed silently at the cities and villages on the island:
Whether it is in the city or in the countryside, he has conquered it all!
However, after the simultaneous implementation of “de-urbanization” and “de-ruralization”, the expected destruction of the world still did not come…
"Report! There are no more survivors in Dongsheng Shenzhou!"
A True God excitedly reported to Lin Liu:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Your merits are greater than the sky! Your kindness is deeper than the sea!"
"You have saved all sentient beings in the world, and they will never be able to repay your kindness in eternity! They will surely spread the praises of your merits in the eternal ages, until the small stone becomes a huge rock, and until the huge rock is covered with moss..."
As he spoke, he was even moved to tears:
"So great! Your Majesty the Holy Lord!"
"You really... I'm crying..."
Not only did he cry alone, but more than 800 other people also cried together, praising Lin Liu's merits and kindness while crying. This scene, contrasted with the dead silent city and countryside below, is so weird and abstract that it will take at least 30 episodes to get closer to science...
In a nutshell: worse than a cult!
Such an abnormal and weird situation certainly did not come from their normal human nature, but was caused by the Blood God's excessive brainwashing.
In their eyes, whatever Lin Liu did was enough to move them to tears...
The strangeness of this scene even diluted Lin Liu's confusion about the future, leaving him speechless:
This Blood God Son is really too evil. He really shouldn't be used. He has turned normal people into brain-dead fans. They can praise anything and be moved by anything...
Taking a deep breath, Lin Liu reluctantly said to these abnormal humans:
"Are there any omissions among the mortals in this world?"
Everyone shouted:
"Not even one is left! Thanks to you, they are all saved!"
Lin Liu sighed and said nothing.
Although theoretically speaking, even if it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, this time the needle should be found, because everyone else is dead. According to the method of exhaustive enumeration and elimination, whether Lin Liu believes it or not, the dreamer can only be among these 800 people.
However, he has now fallen into the deepest self-doubt:
Is theory really useful?
Is it really possible that the dreamer is among the remaining 800 people?
He had failed too many times and paid too high a price. The once extremely confident Lin Liu no longer dared to guarantee anything...
After calming down for a long time, Lin Liu closed his eyes and opened them again, and said slowly:
"Now, you are the only ones left."
[Faced with these last 800 people, you placed your last hope on them, even though this hope was still slim...]
[“His name is Zhao Si…”]
【You slowly tell them about the "alarm clock."】
[They also listened very seriously. After being brainwashed, they are fearless. Your words are the only creed in their lives...]
[Gradually, surprise appeared on their faces. Even with the Blood God's brainwashing, this level of information would still cause their instinctive surprise.]
【Then, they stopped moving...】
[After you waited for a long time in the last hope, hope turned into despair. ]
[Every second that passes will erase a bit of your hope and increase your despair...]
[After a day and night of self-hypnosis, you are finally forced to accept this unacceptable fact: the dreamer is not here either.]
So, where is he?
【…】
[With this confusion and more than 800 corpses of gods, you slowly came to the "God's Tomb" in Xiniu Hezhou. ]
[More than a thousand true gods from heaven are buried here, and now, there will be more than eight hundred new residents here...]
[In the God's Tomb, there are two people waiting for you, one is a monkey, and the other is... the Emperor of Heaven. ]
[Seeing you return in silence, the man and the monkey looked at each other in bewilderment: It seems we have failed...]
【"Master..."】
[The monkey is the first to come forward to comfort: "It's okay... You can try again, you still have countless chances..."]
[The Emperor of Heaven also came forward with a complicated expression, but he did not say anything to comfort you. Instead, he said quietly: "The scene of you killing everyone in the world and then failing is very familiar to me..."]
[Familiar? Indeed.]
[You look at him, and in your mind, you recall the events of the previous chapter that your "other self" had told you: In Xue Xuan's third life, he once carried out a large-scale massacre in order to take away all living creatures in the prehistoric world in an attempt to advance into the eternal prehistoric world, but he failed repeatedly, and his mentality collapsed again and again...]
[The situation I am facing now is very similar to that of Xue Xuan back then. The only difference is that he is slaughtering people, while you are "saving souls"... Of course, maybe there is not much difference between the two...]
“I failed.”
【You sigh.】
[“But I can’t find the reason…”]
[You are even more confused: you have saved all the people who should be saved, but you still haven't passed the level. 】
[What will happen next? You don’t know, because you really have no other options. Even exhaustive methods have no effect. What else can you do? ]
[At this moment, you begin to doubt that no one in this world is dreaming, and that the world is not fake, but real... You may have been provided with wrong information by "your other self"...]
[There is no such thing as "eternal chaos", nor is there any "lord of dreams", nor even "another self". Everything is just your imagination... No! Maybe even you don't exist! You just think you really exist...]
[Really? Fake? Reality? Dream?]
[After the exhaustive method that could never fail also failed, your mentality suffered a huge blow, which was even more severe than what Xue Xuan suffered in the past. It made you mentally unstable... You couldn't tell the difference, you really couldn't tell the difference...]
