——Rose blood.
It was a sinful, poisonous drug. An average person would overdose if they took three pills, which would cause severe hallucinations and eventually lead to the body's disintegration and death.
He held up the last line of mental defense, controlled his arms, and stuffed the rose blood into his mouth.
One, two, four, eight, sixteen...
Soon, he began to hear hallucinations and hear the sound of his body breaking apart. The edges of his pupils burst open and blood began to flow from his seven orifices. His fingers were trembling and blood was even flowing from the gaps between his nails. However, he continued to feed himself rose blood, like a robot that could not feel pain.
"——Su Mingan! What are you doing! Do you think it will be helpful if you destroy your body?" The roar of the god came to my ears.
"-Asa Akto. What are you doing? Are you dissatisfied with our transaction terms?" A voice came from the sky.
Su Mingan didn't answer, just raised his head.
In the surging hallucinations, he seemed to see a rainbow of seven colors, white birds flying, butterflies fluttering, and the first bunch of lilies of spring blooming from the soil.
There are towering mountains, layers of green shade, countless ginkgo trees, and spring flowers.
The excessive amount of rose blood made his vision upside down. In the hallucination, it seemed that there was a blond boy with a bright smile, holding his hand tightly.

…
This is what Noah had said to him in the dungeon during the Dawn War.
Su Mingan continued to swallow the rose blood.
His whole body was covered in blood, his clothes were dyed red, and even the tiny bits of frost were tinged red, like a bunch of frozen roses.
He was dizzy and spitting blood. He reached out his hand to the blond boy in the hallucination and said loudly the same words as before:
"——Are you trying to say that you are the God of Fire?"
The blond boy in the hallucination smiled.
The illusory white bird came close to his shoulder, and his smile was as warm as the boy who was still alive back then:
"No, Grandpa."
"I like to say that each of us is a 'Throne of Hephaestus'."
"You have successfully deceived everyone. Now put an end to your real plan."
