Chapter 64 ...
Although the man in black robes was quite puzzled as to why he agreed so readily, he was still very happy that they had agreed so readily.
Having completed the task his brother had given him, he happily went back to see his brother.
Things progressed smoothly, and God was successfully drawn out.
In his opinion, this god is just too trusting of others.
However, the doctor, from God's perspective, noticed something was wrong. Rather than saying that this god had fallen into a trap, it would be more accurate to say that he had deliberately escaped it.
He seemed to know it was a trap, but he went anyway. Perhaps he wasn't entirely sure it was based on trust, but he must have had a vague idea.
He still went, and the plan was so successful that they couldn't believe it.
However, the doctor saw that after leaving the body, the god seemed to turn into a wisp of gas and slowly floated into the sky. The wings and mist that had been blocking the black gas from advancing also slipped out through these gaps.
Soon, the cracks in this world grew even larger, and some inexplicable things began to crawl in through these gaps.
The doctor's intuition told him that this was the root cause of how the world had become.
This world was never a complete world to begin with. It was only through God's constant repairs that it has managed to survive until now. Now that he is gone, it has naturally attracted those who covet and covet the power of this world.
Seeing that the leader, who had been behind the scenes all along, was dead, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She had always known that this god was nothing more than an outsider. That's why she couldn't trust this alien race.
What happened next made the doctor feel nauseous.
He knew that people are not immune to temptation, and that many people, under the pressure of survival, would do things that violate ethics and common sense.
But now they face no threat to their survival; they are driven by greedy desires.
After God died, he left behind a body; this is a powerful statement.
They set up a tall pot and began to discuss who his hands, feet, and head belonged to.
The doctors, witnessing this scene, felt nauseous, yet they remained oblivious to what was happening. They even started arguing over the unequal distribution of the spoils.
At this moment, a normal person finally appeared. "What are you doing! He's a human being! We... even if we kill him, we can't deny that he saved us. How can you eat him..." As he spoke, the person couldn't help but bend over and vomit violently.
The people surrounding them were all wearing black robes and masks, obscuring their faces—a blatant attempt to deceive themselves.
Hearing her question, the group of people sitting around slowly stood up and turned around to stare at him.
That look made him involuntarily take a few steps back.
At this moment, one of the masked people stepped forward and said, “Don’t say that. No one is more noble than anyone else. After all, everyone has participated in this event. If you don’t want to share this power, you can leave. Why did you come? Is that what you’re thinking? You don’t want us to become strong and get nothing in return, but you still want to be the good person and don’t want your last bit of conscience to be extinguished.”
"It's ridiculous that someone like you did something evil and then sympathizes with yourself for killing the victim. It's like crocodile tears."
The man remained silent for a long time, then said, "No, I just feel like I'm still a person. You're right. I can leave." Then he turned and left without hesitation.
The remaining people looked at each other, not expecting that he would actually leave without hesitation.
Then the person who spoke first clapped his hands, "Alright, don't be so serious. If one person leaves, there's one more spot. Besides, doesn't everyone know? He's not human. He's an anomaly, a summoned demon. There's no need for this kind of psychological burden."
Then he took off his mask, took the first bite, and instantly, his mouth was covered in blood.
He looked up, staring intently at the others. "Oh, nobody's planning to get a share? You know there's going to be a 'cleanup' event later. That guy might not be around much anymore."
These words instantly made the others' faces turn ugly. These words were a threat; they had to join, or they would be hunted down as traitors.
Like a pledge of allegiance, this is what they are doing, and it is a testament to their determination.
At this moment, the god's body emitted a strange scent that was irresistibly captivating, as if tempting them to go there.
Soon, one person started moving, and as one person joined in, soon more and more people joined in this unbearable scene.
Thus, a fragile alliance was formally formed.

"Li You? Li You, Li You, wake up." Hearing the voice that seemed to come from near and far, Li You finally regained consciousness.
Then he suddenly realized what was happening and looked sharply at his brother, "What you gave me was a sleeping pill!" That's why she felt so sleepy and slept all day without realizing it.
He abruptly pushed his brother's hand away. "Where is God? I'm going to find him!"
In Li You's mind, God is omnipotent and no one can outwit him, so at this moment he only felt uneasy and guilty.
His brother stared at him and gave a cryptic laugh. "Alright, I'll take you to your god right now, very soon."
Then Li You saw a group of people crawling on and eating the god. Could those people still be called human? Li You thought no.
His feet were rooted to the ground as if nailed there, and he stared at the only face that hadn't been bitten. Perhaps out of terror, or for some other reason, his face remained unmoved, covered by a white cloth, but Li You recognized it at a glance—it was God.
He could hear his heart pounding, louder and louder, the sound of his heartbeat that had started last night and reached his right ear, finally taking over his entire head, which began to buzz.
His brother was saying something, but he couldn't hear him; his gaze was fixed on his head.
He staggered, not remembering what had happened. When he came to his senses, he was holding a head and burying it in the ground.
He was somewhat dazed and confused, his mouth agape, unsure of what he was going to do or what he wanted to say.
But he knew it was all over, everything was over.
Then a ball of light emerged from the ground. Before Li You could react, the ball of light had already entered his heart.
He touched his heart, knowing that this was God's final act of love for him.
He returned to the base in a daze, and sure enough, it was in chaos. Everyone knew that God had passed away.
Fortunately, his companions had already adjusted their strategies, and he realized that God had already made arrangements, as if he had known all along that things would turn out this way.
No one blamed him; instead, they comforted him because they didn't know what he had done.
Initially, all of this was fine, and things even started to improve because they discovered that after God's death, the plants and animals on their side stopped mutating.
This also led to an improvement in the human situation, but gradually, they discovered that their superpowers were no longer improving.
Only then did they belatedly realize that their world seemed to have stopped evolving, with all plants and animals ceasing to evolve.
They were overjoyed, thinking they would return to their former world.
But before the world could calm down, internal strife was the first thing to begin.
Those who absorbed the gods possessed even greater power.
The other people's abilities could not advance any further, but these few could. In addition, due to their differing goals, they were quickly split into several parts.
They began to fight over the territory, resources, and personnel of their respective organizations.
Gradually, the people below began to realize that something was wrong. Their originally shrewd leaders had all become extremely violent and began to try to take over the other side's base at all costs.
Until one day, someone revealed the truth: he saw a leader of another base eat another person alive.
Soon, all the base leaders went mad, and the news began to spread rapidly.
In the past, such news would never have gotten out, but now they have no time to care about these things.
They have little reason left; what remains is mostly instinct, and they instinctively want to be more "complete."
They instinctively want to absorb equal power.
Human beings killing each other quickly reduced the already small human population to even fewer.
The last remaining organization was the one Li You belonged to.
He silently chopped off the head of another person whose features were no longer recognizable.
He looked up, and he remembered the leader of this base. At that time, he was lying on God's body, gnawing on his right hand.
Now, everyone in the base seems to have undergone some kind of mutation, becoming deformed and grotesque. This is the cursed divine power.
Upon entering, sure enough, the so-called leader resembled a mass of liquid contained within a giant container, yet it was still wriggling. One could clearly see its mouth incessantly clamoring for food.
Then, with a casual flick of his wrist, the liquid splashed up a lot of minced meat. The minced meat, once on the ground, spontaneously folded into small clumps and quickly jumped onto the person closest to him.
Then the person quickly became infected and voluntarily jumped into his mouth.
Li You showed no mercy, burning the place down in a single burst of fire. In the end, only a charred, blackened brain remained, but he knew the brain wasn't dead. Finally, he used his divine power to envelop the brain.
Soon, the charred brain also stopped moving.
Then another ball of light spontaneously entered his body.
Now, only three people remain whom he hasn't dealt with: his brother, his follower Ah Shui, and the Black Robe.
If things continue to develop this way, perhaps humanity will survive for another hundred years.
But soon, external invasions caught humanity off guard. Humanity also lost the possibility of evolution. With supernatural abilities stagnating, humanity quickly abandoned a large portion of its habitat, retreating to a small, defensible area.
The doctor stared at the almost cracked barrier of the world. He knew that the real world also had such barriers, but he couldn't see them normally.
So this is the truth?
