The awkward, silent and subtle atmosphere in the captain's room lasted for a long time.

Finally, it was Duncan who broke the silence. He turned his eyes away from Agou and looked at Mr. Morris next to him seriously: "Logically, do you think this makes sense?"

Morris blinked slowly, his face confused and tangled, as if he was dragged out of bed at 2:30 in the morning to revise his thesis. He felt that the test he faced when he was promoted to a saint was much simpler than the current problem. After a long pause, he finally said, "Since the beginning of history... I have never heard of such a thing... This is beyond my cognition."

"Of course it's beyond belief. I'm afraid that Agou is the only Deep Demon who can read in history," Duncan pinched his brows with mixed feelings. "Does your doctrine say that the God of Wisdom will bless Deep Demons?"

"How could there be such a clause?" Morris's expression suddenly turned as if he had seen a ghost. "The Deep Devil is the enemy of civilized society. Not to mention the God of Wisdom, the teachings of the other three gods cannot possibly contain such a clause..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Vanna, who had been stunned for a long time, suddenly remembered something and added faintly, "But the teachings of the God of Wisdom also say that Lahem favors every sentient being equally, giving them the wisdom to understand the world and protecting them from the crazy and terrifying realities with the veil of foolishness... It does not explicitly exclude the Deep Demons from being 'intelligent creatures'."

"How can a dark demon have intelligence?" Morris shouted subconsciously, but the next second he turned his head with a strange expression and looked at Agou who was lying obediently on the floor.

"Based on Agou's academic progress, he can be scheduled to take the high school entrance exam around this time next year," Duncan said dimly, "Maybe one day he can sit at the same table with Nina."

"...I'm a little confused. I need to calm down." Morris finally swayed a little, rubbed his forehead, and slowly came to the chair next to him. He slowly sat down with the help of the armrests before looking up and looking at the dog in the middle of the room with complicated eyes. "You... besides those scenes appearing in your mind, what else did you feel? Did you hear Him talking to you? Or did you have a completely new understanding of certain knowledge that emerged out of thin air?"

“No,” Agou shook his head, “I only saw those lights twice in a row, and I was frightened both times. Other than that, I didn’t hear or feel anything…”

"You just saw 'Him'? You didn't receive any revelation?" Morris seemed to have calmed down and began to think seriously. "Then did you feel that your calculation ability or memory ability improved? After staring at those 'lights' for a long time, did you feel that your vision was different when you returned to the real world?"

Agou continued to shake his head: "No, nothing at all - and I didn't stare at the 'lights' for a long time. I just took a look and then was pulled back to the real world."

"You took a look? And then you were pulled back to the real world?" Morris was stunned. Obviously, this was inconsistent with his understanding. "This is not right... The gaze of the God of Wisdom is accompanied by a long period of thought exchange. Even if mortals cannot understand this kind of communication, the whole process is definitely not as short as a 'glance'... How did you get pulled back?"

"It felt like I was pulled back by Shirley," Agou thought for a moment, raised his head and rubbed Shirley's arm, "Just when I felt like I was being 'taken away' by the light, I felt a strong force coming from the symbiotic chain, and then I woke up - but Shirley herself didn't seem to remember it."

All eyes in the room immediately fell on Shirley again.

The girl, who became the focus of everyone's attention, shrank her neck subconsciously, but then she smiled triumphantly, like a child showing off after doing something great.

Only Duncan's expression became more and more weird after several changes.

Vanna on the side was still puzzled: "I have never heard of the symbiotic relationship between the Deep Demons and humans, and the power to block the gaze of the gods... Could it be that the symbiotic relationship between Shirley and Agou is closer than that of ordinary Annihilation Cultists?"

"Ahem, maybe it wasn't the power of the symbiotic contract that brought Agou back," Duncan coughed twice, raised his hand and pointed at Shirley who was still laughing foolishly, "It might be the power of the illiterate."

Vanna: “……?”

Shirley: “……?”

Several people were stunned. Shirley's expression became visibly excited. Morris looked at Duncan in astonishment - he always knew that the captain's thinking was broader than that of ordinary people, but he had never thought of it in this direction!

However, after a short moment of surprise, Morris couldn't help but continue thinking along this line of thought, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt...it was quite reasonable.

"Perhaps at that moment, a 'competition' in the supernatural realm occurred in Agou. On one side was the watchful eye of the God of Wisdom, and on the other side was his illiterate partner. In the end, the facts proved..." Duncan rubbed his forehead and sighed, "The hopeless illiterate defeated the god who wanted to recruit students."

"Logically... logically..." Morris opened his mouth and after repeating it several times, he could only spread his hands and said, "Forget it, I don't know how to calculate this logic. If I write a paper on this matter, I'm afraid it will be enough for the scholars of Moko to fight in the center of the city-state until a river of blood flows. Let's just assume that this is the case."

An indescribable and tense atmosphere lingered in the captain's room. Shirley stood in the middle of the room and seemed to be about to cry. She looked at Duncan and then at Morris, and finally pointed at Agou with a sad face: "Then...then did I hold Agou back? It...it clearly..."

At this moment, which might be the only moment in her life, Shirley actually had the thought that she should study hard. However, the next second, Duncan's voice interrupted her: "Don't jump to conclusions. Maybe... this matter is not as simple as we thought?"

Shirley immediately put away her frustration and said, "Huh?"

Duncan did not answer her doubts immediately, but looked at Agou: "Agou, you just said that when you were looking at those lights, you felt like you were being 'taken away'?"

Agou nodded immediately.

Duncan turned to Morris again: "Would a person blessed by the God of Wisdom have this feeling of being 'taken away'?"

“No,” Morris seemed to have realized something at this time. He shook his head and his tone became increasingly serious. “The normal blessing process is a friendly spiritual exchange and enlightenment. The mind of the blessed is clear and happy, and there is no feeling of losing control.”

"What would happen if a Deep Demon was really 'infused' with wisdom by the God of Wisdom, Lahem, or received some kind of...divine grace?" Duncan asked immediately afterwards.

"...I don't know. This has never happened before, but judging from logic, this could be a very dangerous process." Morris's mind raced, and he immediately understood what Duncan meant. "There is a natural conflict between the Four Righteous Gods and the crazy and out-of-control 'Ancient God'. This conflict is not limited to the literal 'struggle', but the essential 'mutual exclusion' between the creations or followers of both sides. The Deep Demon, as a 'derivative' of the Deep Lord, naturally possesses the characteristics of chaos and corruption. Even Agou is no exception. As for the God of Wisdom..."

Morris paused and looked at Shirley with a serious expression: "Even if my Lord has no ill intentions, its brilliance will naturally destroy Agou's mind, and the result is..."

Morris did not continue. The others in the room were lost in their own thoughts for a moment. Ai, who had been resting with his eyes closed on the chart table, suddenly jumped up and flapped his wings vigorously as if he had gone crazy, shouting shrilly and strangely: "Kuang kuang kuang kuang kuang kuang!"

After yelling so loudly, it suddenly jumped up, and then fell on the table with a "bang" like a stone, then fluttered to its feet, strolled a few steps as if nothing had happened, came to the goat's head and tilted its head: "Do you want to recharge Q coins?"

Everyone was frightened by the pigeon spirit's strange and convulsive behavior, and no one could understand what it was yelling, but Duncan's expression changed slightly.

The next second, a sentence somehow popped up in his mind -

[Two incompatible operating systems, data communication will cause fatal errors. ]

With a moment of realization and a mind full of messy associations, he slowly turned his head and looked at Agou.

"Is there a possible data conflict between the Lord of the Deep and LH-02..."

"Ah?" Ah Gou didn't react for a moment, "Captain, what did you say?"

"No, nothing." Duncan knew it was difficult to explain to others how many things he had just thought of. He could only wave his hand and looked at Shirley who was still looking at him with a blank expression. He reorganized his vocabulary in his mind several times before finally saying, "Shirley, it might be beneficial for you to 'pull' Agou back - I mean, it's just 'possible'. This prevents Agou from being 'contaminated' or 'devoured' by the will of the God of Wisdom, Lahem."

Shirley's mind worked for a moment, and she seemed to finally understand what Duncan meant. Her eyes immediately brightened up again: "Ah, so... it's a good thing for me to keep a distance from that God of Wisdom?"

What else could Duncan say? He could only nod.

As a result, when he nodded, Shirley's expression suddenly became happy: "Does that mean I have a reason not to do my homework in the future?! I have to bring Ah Gou back!"

Duncan: “……?!”

He never expected that the first thing the girl thought of was this!

But before he could speak, Morris next to him was the first to react: "It's not that simple."

Shirley was stunned: "Huh?"

The old man said seriously, "The Lord's blessing is not based solely on knowledge level, but vice versa. And from what I have observed over this period of time, even if you do your homework every day, it will not affect your rejection by the God of Wisdom."

Shirley: “???”
