◎She said she felt like the cartoonists were playing a big game◎
Su Anle was the first to discover the most critical part of An Qi's character in the comics, that is, the setting of traveling through time and holding the script, but she has also been thinking about one thing.
——How far will the plot develop before it goes beyond the scope of An Qi’s script.
If according to Su Anle's previous idea, the two had already parted ways in the original timeline due to differences in ideas, then doesn't An Qi know too much?
The plot has now progressed to the royal family, but An Qi can still show up at the most appropriate time, almost making Su Anle think that he has been eavesdropping on the negotiations between An Mo and Feng Yang.
But she knew that this was impossible. It was impossible for the comics to have no hints about such an important matter. So the only explanation was that at this time in the original timeline, An Qi and An Mo were still good friends.
However, according to the character shown by 007 in the original timeline, he would never disagree with the royal family when An Mo was almost isolated and helpless. But if they were friends until the end, the change in An Qi's attitude towards An Mo after returning to the past would be too abrupt.
Su Anle adjusted the comic forward, and the picture stayed on the few frames where An Mo unknowingly dragged the resistance army into this crisis.
So, what if at the end of the original timeline, An Mo was completely controlled by Fang Jianling?
He always said that he wanted to create a world where everyone lived happily, but he and his like-minded friends killed all his companions and even stood on the opposite side and became the oppressor they hated the most.
Judging from what Fang Jianling has done in recent years in manipulating the Vatican, if he really controlled An Mo and completely grasped the lifeline of this world, the bad things he did would be even worse.
From the parts of the comics that have been revealed so far, we can see that the people under control do not behave abnormally at all, and Anmer's tone and demeanor are exactly the same as usual.
It was obvious what his "voluntary" actions meant in An Qi's eyes.
And now it seems that the controlled person is unaware of what he is doing, so it is very likely that until the very end, An Mo did not know why his companions came to the royal family to attack, and why An Qi broke with him.
"In that case, An Qi's abnormal behavior in the Black Tower can be explained." Su Anle said.
An Mo was sad because of his weakness in the Black Tower. He was afraid that his weak strength would not allow him to successfully help others. Although An Mo's strength reached the peak in the future, he used such strength to assist the Church in doing evil.
Even someone as strong-willed as An Qi would probably not be able to face such a tragic contrast.
"So what An Qi did in Quanzhang City was most likely to alert the rebels," Su Anle guessed. "Feng Yang will bring Bai Lezhan's contract to Yu Ranqi. At the same time, she will also know that An Qi and An Mo have reached a cooperation. A collaborator who has crippled the superpowers in the city and even nearly killed their important companions. Given how much Yu Ranqi values her companions, she will definitely be extremely cautious in making decisions."
It is even possible that as long as An Qi continues to cooperate with An Mo, she will not bring anyone to the royal family.
This way, deaths that have occurred in the original timeline will not happen again.
"But if you look at it this way, the next plot direction is likely to be that An Qi finds out that An Mo was controlled before, and then they resolve their knot and work together to deal with the Church?" Su Anle frowned, "Although it's not impossible, I always feel that the direction is a bit cliché."
In the comics, after receiving the contract sent by Feng Yang, Yu Ranyi and Su Anle reached a consensus. Wen Yuexin no longer dared to judge An Qi's character easily, but agreed with Yu Ranqi's decision that the resistance army should remain on the sidelines.
The next page returns to An Mo's perspective. In order to avoid the sudden patrol officers, he entered the underground laboratory, but the experimental data that was about to be obtained was swept away by the out-of-control plants.
But because someone from the Vatican was about to arrive, An Mo could not continue exploring and could only note the location and leave quickly.
"The coronation ceremony looks like it should be a big event," Su Anle flipped through his notes, "An Qi should stop it as an agent. After all, the gods said in Quan Zhang City that he could use this identity to do things conveniently."
The scene is still from An Mo's perspective, and the sound of Fang Jianling chanting the hymn reaches his ears through the open window.
The introduction of the new character Gu Luming and Hu Qian's suggestive words made Su Anle write quickly, especially the scene when the eulogy was interrupted and An Mo saw it when he came to the window.
The familiar yet unfamiliar silver-haired boy, and the pair of golden eyes that seemed to be able to see through the soul.
"Is this An Qi? But his eyes..." Su Anle clicked on the screenshot of the god in the folder. If An Qi only had a similar temperament when he cooperated with An Mo, then the silver-haired boy who appeared in front of everyone at this moment seemed to have completely merged with that god.
What An Qi said next also confirmed her thoughts. This was the god borrowing An Qi's body to come to the world. He not only prevented the coronation ceremony from being held and prevented Lan Jing from entering An Mo's body again, but also made An Qi's identity as an agent public, cutting off everyone's doubts.
Su Anle had no doubt that this was An Qi's own performance, not only because of the completely changed aura, but most importantly because of another small detail.
At the moment when the gods descended, thousands of believers in the audience subconsciously raised their heads and followed the gods they believed in with their eyes. At the same time, 'An Qi' also looked around.
The comic used a whole page to describe this process in detail, so Su Anle could clearly see that when looking into the eyes of the believers, 'An Qi' did not have any adverse reaction.
At this moment, it was no longer An Qi's consciousness that dominated his body.
The result of this divine descent seemed to be very favorable to An Qi. According to his past behavioral norms, this should have been his own initiative.
But Su Anle felt something was very wrong. If the gods were to come and pray for An, why didn't they come in person?
He had appeared in person in Quanzhang City, which meant that there were no restrictions on the descent of gods in the comic world. Since He had been awakened by An Qi, wouldn't it be more convincing if He appeared in person?
Su Anle thought about it, raised his hand and wrote down two possibilities on the paper. One was that An Qi had begun to devour the power of the gods, so the gods who could once descend in their true form now had to rely on the bodies of others to appear.
The other is to completely reverse the thinking, from the appearance of the true body to the casual use of other people's bodies, this is not the loss of God's power but the increase of His power, it is not An Qi devouring God but God devouring An Qi.
"But the second possibility is not high," she added a mark below, "This situation is based on the premise that the god is an evil person, but whether it is the previous paving and shaping or the treatment of Ye Yuming, He tends to be a positive character."
However, Su Anle's full confidence was quickly shattered by Fang Jianling's thoughts.
The Pope's inner voice revealed one thing: entering S-level and above is not about becoming a god, but about becoming a part of a god. An Qi may have started the fusion process the moment he stepped into SS-level!
On the next page, something even more unexpected happened to Su Anle. An Qi, who was "descended from God", rejected Lan Jing.
Not to mention the other meanings of blue crystal, An Qi said in person in Quanzhang City that blue crystal can provide him with vitality, and at the end of the previous update, An Qi's loss of sense of smell was enough to prove that his physical condition had further deteriorated.
In this case, this rejection was most likely not from An Qi's original intention, otherwise he would probably die from lack of vitality before completing his goal.
"So this is the will of the gods. They are promoting An Qi's death?" The girl tapped the table with her fingertips. "If what Fang Jianling said is true, then death is likely to promote integration... But Fang Jianling is not a good person. It is also possible that he is judging others by his own standards and making malicious assumptions."
Su Anle scratched her hair in annoyance. She clearly had a lot of scattered information, but she was missing a key clue to connect it all together.
On the screen, at the moment the coronation ceremony ended, all the strange phenomena caused by the arrival of the gods disappeared, and the silver-haired boy's pupils turned back to their original azure blue.
When asked by Fang Jianling about his living arrangements, he directly chose the forbidden area of the Vatican where the gods originally lived. Without waiting for Fang Jianling to lead the way, he used his supernatural powers to disappear on the spot.
Fang Jianling, who was left behind, directly signaled the Vatican knight beside him to put the blue crystal up high. An Mo, who hurried over, wanted to stop him, "Blue crystal is too harmful to people with special abilities. God trusts you and allows you to keep it properly. How can you put it in a public area and endanger the safety of others and violate God's decree?"
But Fang Jianling on the next grid was not angry at all. Instead, he had a look of helplessness on his face, as if to say, "You are still young and you don't understand yet." "Do you think he doesn't know how dangerous his power is to us?"
The Pope, who is believed by the world to be the closest to God, walked up to An Mo with a scepter in his hand and said, "If he wanted to prevent the harm, he should have taken the blue crystal back directly. But he chose to leave this uncontrollable power in the world. I don't need to explain the meaning behind this."
These outrageous words obviously shocked An Mo. He subconsciously looked around and made sure that no one could hear their conversation before asking in a low voice, "Your Holiness, do you know what you are saying? The one you are accusing is the god who saved humanity from the aliens!"
"You also know that He is God and not a human." Fang Jianling's expression was extremely serious. The aura formed by his long-term high position made people unconsciously want to believe his words.
"After all, the battle between Him and the aliens is nothing more than a struggle among the inhuman creatures. How can you believe that He is the savior of mankind, rather than someone who arbitrarily decides the life and death of the world, blocks our path to advancement, and wants to keep us in captivity——"
"Another alien"
The update of this episode ends here, but the shock it brought to Su Anle took a long time to calm down. Although the god did not appear much in the early plot, His position was quite important.
He was the one who facilitated An Qi's time travel, which indirectly led to all the plot directions in the early stages of the comics. If he was really a villain as Fang Jianling said, then many of the things she had already determined would have to be overturned.
In the absence of sufficient clues, Su Anle prefers to wait for the next update rather than making random conclusions and uploading them to the Internet.
"It always feels like the cartoonists are playing a big game," she murmured.
