Chapter 153 153. The Ultimate Goal
"Is this the feeling of peeping into secrets?"
Xu Zhi was slightly stunned. Even though the terrifying feeling had subsided, she was still frightened.
[Yes, so you must learn to be careful when speaking on topics that may touch upon private matters.]
"Okay," the girl sighed, finally understanding why the narrator was so enigmatic.
Xu Zhi sorted out the currently known information in his mind. The supreme being with the cup attribute has been reviving. He had made some arrangements early on, causing the fog to gather in Yuncheng, and the midnight crack was most likely a step in the arrangement, but this step was destroyed by Xu Zhi.
And, for some reason, perhaps due to layout considerations, or perhaps something happened that prevented him from doing so, in short, the archbishops who appeared so far were all defective products.
Whether Xu Zhi killed these defective products or snatched away these fake roads, it was actually a destruction of the plan.
This also means that the hatred between Xu Zhi and him has deepened.
".Hiss, if he could move freely, he would definitely kill me first."
"Just so you know, that's why I said things got worse."
[Whatever the reason, the current archbishops are all defective products, and they must be his handiwork. The existence of these defective products further proves that he has great intentions.]
[Even if it's for that purpose, there's no need to go this far.]
"What purpose?" Xu Zhi poked his head out curiously.
[Shh. 】
"Shen Yan, I understand, I understand. Can you give me a hint?" Xu Zhi did not give up.
The narrator thought for a while and gave a hint.
【For living things, staying alive is just a basic need. 】
"Oh, I see."
When basic survival needs are met, people will desire more advanced needs.
The supreme being with the cup attribute also desires a goal that is more difficult than resurrection.
But, what other purpose could it have?
Isn’t it the pinnacle to become a supreme being that is almost like a god?
Combined with the narrator's previous pessimistic attitude as if the world was about to be destroyed, could it be that the supreme being with the [Cup] attribute is really so crazy that he likes to destroy the world when he has nothing to do?
Or perhaps, His higher purpose and pursuit can only be achieved by destroying the world.
".This is too villainous!"
Xu Zhi drank some water with some discomfort. Perhaps because she had just obtained the [Spell], she still found it difficult to ignore the foreign body sensation in her throat, and kept wondering if she could swallow the thing stuck in her throat.
[Yes, villain, the cup has always been crazy and dangerous in the eyes of common sense.]
[In short, when I say things are getting worse, I mean that your grudge against Him is too great. You must quickly acquire the ability to protect yourself from Him. Furthermore, what He wants to do may be even worse than I anticipated. In order to survive in such a situation, you must speed up.]
"Okay, I understand." Xu Zhi sighed and nodded seriously, then he realized that he sighed a lot today.
She is obviously still very young, and it is not good for her to sigh all day long like this.
"It's decided. Let's rest for half a day and then set out immediately to arrest Lust!"
Xu Zhi originally planned to wait until she was almost well before going, but the current situation seemed quite urgent, so she had no choice but to force herself to speed up.
The outside world, the Federation.
Ever since the three survivors came out of Cloud City, they were greeted by non-stop "interrogations." Of course, although they were called "interrogations," they were actually pretty much the same as interrogations, except that the methods were gentler and the approach seemed more humane.
Even though all three of them were extraordinary beings, and two of them were quite powerful, they were still nothing compared to the entire Federation. Therefore, even though the three of them were extremely exhausted at this moment, they still had to force themselves to answer question after question.
After another round of "inquiries" ended, Lin Zizhen's direct superior, who was also the person in charge of Jincheng, walked over to him, handed him a cup of coffee, and patted him on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work."
Lin Zizheng shook his head, but was too tired to speak.
Seeing this, the boss knew that Lin Zizhen probably wanted to rest instead of chatting, so he took out a file bag and said, "You shouldn't be able to see this at your level, but because of your meritorious service, you've been specially approved. After you get some rest, open it and take a look."
After handing the file bag to Lin Zizhen, the boss left, leaving Lin Zizhen alone with a frown looking at the sealed file bag in his hand.
He faintly felt some extraordinary fluctuations in this file bag. The Federation had indeed developed some new ways of keeping secrets recently, such as engraving some simple formations on the file bag, which would record the location of the person who opened the file bag the moment it was opened, or some aggressive rituals that would "explode" unless opened by a designated person.
In short, with extraordinary energy, many things have become magical, and Lin Zizheng is still slowly adapting to this rapidly changing world.
On the way home, he was picked up by a special car. Thanks to Xu Zhi, his treatment has now reached an unprecedented level.
Whenever Lin Zizheng thought of Xu Zhi, he would feel an emotion in his heart that was almost like the fear of gods among superstitious people. He admired and revered him but could not even think of trying to become friends with him or get a little familiar with him. His mind was filled with the cautious feeling of trying not to make mistakes in front of him, and not to say or do the wrong thing.
This may be because the gap between them is too big.
She could single-handedly kill an enemy that was too difficult for the Federation to resolve, rendering them helpless. In this day and age, what is the difference between such an ability and that of a "god"?
Lin Zizhen even occasionally has some bold ideas.
Compared to working for the Federation, it seems that working for Xu Zhi is the best choice now?
However, he could feel that Xu Zhi did not value him, and even the way he looked at him was no different from the way he looked at a random person on the street. Even if he wanted to successfully switch jobs and become the other party's employee, the other party might not necessarily accept him.
However, Xu Zhi said that he had something to discuss with the Federation. Perhaps, that would be the opportunity?
Lin Zizhen is undoubtedly one of the more successful politicians among the younger generation. He also has an extremely sharp sense of smell. After realizing that Xu Zhi now has the strength to compete with the Federation, he immediately realized that working for Xu Zhi would be a faster way to "promotion" than working for the huge Federation.
More importantly, if he successfully switched to Xu Zhi's work, he might be able to live in Yuncheng for a long time!
Yes, Lin Zizhen has already realized that although Yuncheng seems to be a city in the Federation, it is already in the hands of an 18-year-old girl.
I'm afraid that anyone who wants to enter or leave Yuncheng has to look at her mood.
