Now - where is it?
Du Ze opened his eyes wide, and everywhere he saw was pure white. He was alone and suspended in the white, with nowhere to go. The fatal wounds on his body disappeared as if they had never appeared.
After a brief moment of unconsciousness, Du Ze began to look around, trying to quickly sort out the current situation - when he came to his senses, he was already here. Du Ze's thoughts were still on the scene of the God of Light passing away in the darkness. He had never expected that the God of Light would bring them such a big "surprise" in the end. In the eyes of stupid readers, the so-called final BOSS battle was just a formality, but they did not expect that the God of Light used Judgment, sacrificed himself, and killed everyone present.
【You are already dead.】
Du Ze looked at the endless pure white - is this the world after death?
White, white, white, nothing but white. It was like he had fallen into a thick milk, or like he was the only one painted on a piece of white paper. Du Ze looked around for a while and then had to close his eyes. For the first time, he found that the endless white was more uncomfortable than black. Once he stared at it for too long, he would not only feel dazzled, but also have the urge to vomit.
"...If I had known that I would be able to meet you like this, I should have let the God of Light kill you."
At the moment he closed his eyes, Du Ze heard someone sigh like this. The first reaction of the silly boy was joy - look, he heard something, a wild person asking for directions appeared - but once he understood the meaning and extended meaning of that sentence, the only thing left was astonishment.
Du Ze took a short, convulsive breath, his whole body tensed like a stone, and he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the person who came. The moment he saw the other person clearly, Du Ze simply couldn't believe his eyes, as if a thunder exploded directly above his head, and it was like being hit on the head. The person in front of him was completely beyond his imagination.
In the pure white space, "that person" stretched out his hand to greet Du Ze.
"Nice to meet you, my Lord. I am the creator of this world."
When he heard the name, Du Ze felt as if he was pricked by a needle, and his whole body was numb. The person in front of him called himself Chuang. The person of the world god had short black hair, wore a wool vest, a white shirt, black trousers, a pair of frameless glasses and a blue hearing aid - Du Ze felt like he saw another self in this world!
"Don't worry about it." As if he was very familiar with Du Ze's daze, the God of Creation pointed at himself and said, "I don't have a fixed appearance or look. I usually reflect your image."
——Damn, I’m scared to death! Du Ze’s heart was instantly filled with “Ci Ao”. He almost thought that he had some kind of relationship with the God of Creation, or to put it more ridiculously, his father had some kind of relationship with the God of Creation that he should not let down his mother. But the truth was that the God of Creation was a mirror of the same height!
When I finally knew the truth, tears fell from my eyes.
After being shocked, a certain fool found that the setting of "God of Creation = Life-size Mirror" was actually quite logical. As the original god who created the entire world, the God of Creation in "Mixed Blood" had too little presence among the spirits. There was no statue or temple, and the information was even more pitiful. Now that he had actually seen the God of Creation, Du Ze finally understood what was going on. The lack of a fixed image meant that a statue could not be built for the God of Creation, and without a statue, a temple could not be built to store information. In this way, the information about the God of Creation would naturally only be a vague legend.
Do you know how hard it was for me to find information about you?
Du Ze stared expressionlessly at the fellow opposite him who was reading the life-size mirror of the God of Creation. Perhaps because of this, Du Ze felt that he was not so socially awkward - who could be so cool in front of a mirror that reflected himself! Because he had received an extremely shocking visual shock at the beginning, a certain silly and cute creature was not so surprised by the appearance of the God of Creation. Compared to why he met the God of Creation, Du Ze was more concerned about the situation on Xiu's side. Isn't the God of Creation in front of him the best person to ask questions?
"What happened to the others?" Du Ze paused and asked the man carefully, "What happened to Xiu?"
Hearing Du Ze's question, the God of Creation did not answer, but instead asked: "What happened?"
Hey, doesn’t the Creator God know what’s going on over there?
The God of Creation saw Du Ze was slightly dazed, and a self-deprecating expression appeared on his face, which looked exactly like Du Ze.
"The Creator God is omniscient and omnipotent." The Creator God said in a tone like reciting scriptures: "Every living being - including you - thinks so, but I am just a prisoner now."
He spread his hands, showing the pure whiteness of his surroundings as if he was introducing his cell to Du Ze.
"I have been locked up here forever, unable to see anything, unable to do anything - except waiting for my death."
His intuition told Du Ze that the God of Creation did not lie, but Du Ze still couldn't help but retort a little: "You just said that you should have let the 'God of Light' kill me a long time ago." If the God of Creation didn't know what happened, why would he know that he died at the hands of the God of Light and say something that sounded like regret?
"That's because I can't leave here, so I can only rely on other people to do what I want to do. The God of Light is my best chess piece. He has my scepter, and I can tell him what to do through the artifact." The God of Creation looked at Du Ze carefully, and deduced based on Du Ze's previous words: "So you were killed by the God of Light? You just asked about the situation of other people, and it seems that you all suffered a fatal attack together." The God of Creation seemed to be quite familiar with the God of Light's style of doing things. "I think I roughly know the reason for your death-the God of Light used the "Judgment", right?"
Du Ze nodded involuntarily, listening to the God of Creation describing Judgment in an admiring tone: "Judgment is a true artifact. It can transform the user into pure attack energy. The more sacrifices are made, the stronger the power is. When the user is completely sacrificed, it will have incomparable power. This is the most suitable weapon for the Celestial Clan. Before I handed the scepter to the God of Light, if the God of Light did not have Judgment, he would only be a toy for the Demon God Baal in battle and could not cause any harm to Baal."
"But this is not the most powerful part of the Judgment. The real scary part of the Judgment is that it has rules." The God of Creation looked at Du Ze. "Do you know the 'rules'?"
Du Ze nodded, then shook his head. At first glance, there were many concepts about rules in his mind, but when he really wanted to talk about them in detail, he couldn't find any words to describe the "rules" specifically.
"The birth, aging, sickness and death of living things, the alternation of day and night, what keeps them running is the rules." The God of Creation understood what Du Ze meant and began to introduce the rules to Du Ze: "It is the order of the world and the law of everything eternal. We must abide by it, even if we don't want to, the rules will force us to abide by it. This kind of coercion cannot be violated and cannot be resisted." In order to make Du Ze better understand what he said, the God of Creation gave an example: "Suppose there is a The rule of "You can't see me" means that even if there is only a wall between you and me, you will never see me. The rule may place a small stone on your way to find me, causing you to fall and bleed or even lose consciousness; if I come to find you, a kind person passing by will rescue you before I see you... In this way, we will miss each other countless times, always following the rule of "You can't see me" - we think it is fate, but it is actually the result of the rule. "
Du Ze listened in a daze. The rules mentioned by the God of Creation were not only some regulations for people to follow, but also a mysterious existence. It had its own operating mechanism, like the way of heaven often mentioned by the Chinese, the creation of flat Gaia, and the results of the law of cause and effect. Before this, he had glimpsed the rules many times, and the plot god he complained about was actually part of the rules.
"The rule of Judgment is that it will hit the target absolutely, so no one can avoid its attack." The God of Creation glanced at Du Ze. "If the sacrificer of its energy is strong enough, Judgment's attack will result in the death of all the attacked targets."
In an instant, Du Ze's heart sank as if it was filled with cold lead, and the coldness of fear spread inside his body. He had always been lucky, because the first law of the protagonist's law is the "protagonist's immortality law". For the development of the plot, no matter what kind of bloody injuries the protagonist suffers, he can always survive in various incredible ways. But it will also be broken sometimes, and one of the reasons is the ending of the story. If it were any other author, Du Ze would not have any worries about this, but the author of "Mixed Blood" is Yi Ye Zhi Qiu, the Yi Ye Zhi Qiu who sells the protagonist and pits the readers! Du Ze really didn't know whether Yi Ye Zhi Qiu would set such an ending that would make readers want to hang themselves at his house. The author's moral integrity had long been determined to be negative when the god unfolded. According to what the God of Creation just said, once the rules (plot) are set, they will always move towards their predetermined results, just like the destruction of the elves and the attack on the sky city in the past, the plot will always unfold in the direction written by the author.
The God of Creation stared at Du Ze's bloodless face. The black-haired young man in front of him had no expression on his face, and he could only capture his emotions through some minor changes. The emotion he just showed could be said to be the biggest emotional fluctuation since they met.
It was not because of his own death, but because he was afraid of that person's passing. Although he had long known about the relationship between the two from the God of Light, the God of Creation still felt unhappy when he actually saw it.
“你不用擔心修。”創世神對杜澤說:“那個人不會死。”
他并不是在安慰杜澤,僅僅是為了将對話進行下去。
“世界已經制定了‘修不能死’的規則。”創世神的表情似憐憫似微諷。“比起世界的規則,裁決的規則算得了什麽。”
人生的大起大落莫過于此,杜澤都要為作者難得的良心而痛哭流涕,萌主已經夠苦逼了,不要再在最後再來個致命一擊。得知修的主角定律還在後,某種蠢萌徹底放下了心,開始專心面對創世神。在之前的對話中,創世神直接點名了光明神是他的“棋子”。雖然關于光明神和創世神的猜想被證實,但杜澤卻根本高興不起來,因為這意味着想要殺死修的不僅僅是光明神,更可能是創世神。
“你想要……殺死修。”
“是的。”創世神平靜地承認了,他看着杜澤,雖然杜澤的表情沒什麽變化,但一直細心觀察的創世神還是敏銳地察覺到了杜澤的戒備,這加劇了他的不快。
“你不應該将我視為敵人,因為你和我處于同一立場。”
創世神突然極近地貼過來,杜澤看到與他一樣的臉在眼前不斷地放大,皮膚甚至能感受到對方冰冷的呼吸。
“在這個世界裏,我才是和你關系最密切的人。”
兩人面對面只有一線之差,創世神淩厲的目光牢牢地鎖定了杜澤,語氣中充滿了複雜的情感。
“你知道你為什麽會來到這個世界嗎?”
杜澤下意識地後退了一步,避開了創世神的咄咄逼人。在折斷光明神的權杖時,他曾聽到過來自同樣對象的同樣問話。那時候他沒來得及多想,并且具有一種思維慣性:穿越這件原本就不科學的事還需要理由和解釋麽。
雖然後退,但杜澤并沒有避開創世神的目光,創世神向他暗示了創世的存在,即使隐約嗅到圈套的味道,他也必須跳入圈套将這一切弄清楚。
“為什麽?”
“這便就是我要和你談的,關于你、關于我、關于修、關于規則、關于世界。”創世神嘆息道:“我知道你有很多疑問,同樣的,我也有問題想問你……來自‘上面’的人。”
上面……?
不待杜澤理解其中的含義,創世神已經開始了他的自述:“該從哪裏說起呢……從最初開始說吧。”
創世神問杜澤:“你覺得‘創世神’是什麽?”
“……創造世界的神。”
因為這個問題簡單得有些古怪,杜澤頓了一拍才回答。聽到杜澤的回答,創世神露出了難以形容的表情。
“在初始之時,我也這樣認為:我是創造這個世界的神,世界萬物都是我做出來的。我擁有這個信念,并對此毫無懷疑——直到有一天,我目睹了一場分娩。那位獸族在血泊中痛苦掙紮,用盡全身的力量産下兩子後死去了。看到這一切,我想,和我相比,這些生靈實在太過渺小,光是制造出寥寥無幾的新生命就耗盡了自己的性命。”
“基于這樣的自豪,我打算為那兩只獸族幼子創造一個新母親——這對‘創造了萬物’的我來說并不是什麽難事。”創世神說到這裏就停下了,杜澤一愣,他看到創世神沉下的臉色,心中模模糊糊地冒出一個猜想:該不會是……
“我做不出來。”創世神壓抑地說:“我可以複活那只獸族,卻不能無中生有地創造一只獸族——明明是創造了萬物的神,現在卻連一只生靈都無法做出來,是不是很可笑?”
“這讓我感到恐慌,我開始拼命回溯記憶,試圖回想起當初我是怎麽創造出這個世界的。你會有嬰兒時期的記憶嗎……想不起來對吧,我也是一樣,越是回想初時的記憶越是模糊,好像産生意識的那一刻,我就站在這個世界裏了。這對于其他人來說是可以允許的,但我不行,因為我是‘創造了世界’的創世神,是這個世界的‘源頭’。”創世神深吸了一口氣,似乎在将某種黑創世緒壓下去。“那時候我才發現,雖然我是創世神,但我的記憶中沒有我創造這個世界的過程,僅僅有一個‘這個世界是我創造’的念頭。為了證實或者破除這個矛盾,我開始嘗試創造世界——大陸反面就是我制造的半成品。”
卧槽原來大陸反面是這貨的傑作!杜澤此時深刻理解了什麽叫做前人作孽後人遭殃,一想起當初在黑雨中的極限逃亡,某只蠢萌就想糊對面的“前人”一臉翔。
不求你做出一個鳥語花香的伊甸但至少把那些破壞力堪比熊孩子的元素風暴收拾收拾啊!=皿=
創世神沒有發覺杜澤內心憤怒的小宇宙,繼續說了下去。“雖然我做出了大陸反面,但那并不是創造,而是‘搬運’。我僅僅只是将混沌大陸原來的一些元素轉移到目的地,然後動用魔法将那些元素壓縮成實體——這種事就算是一個普通的下位神都能做到。那一刻,我發現其實我也只不過是一個比較強大的普通神靈,根本不是能創造萬物的唯一神。”
創世神凝視杜澤。“如果是你,你會有什麽樣的感覺。”
如果他處于創世神的角度,杜澤想,他第一反應肯定是自己被洗腦了,現有的記憶和認知全是虛假的。
創世神沒有想要從杜澤那裏得到答案,他像是被壓抑得太久,僅僅只需要一個聽他說話的聽衆。
“我開始懷疑自己的意識,為了獲得‘真正的我’的線索,我找遍了混沌大陸,卻發現一個可怕的事實:混沌大陸上所有擁有意識的物體——無論活物還是死物,都是發自內心地将我視為‘創世神’,并對我感到敬畏。”
創世神的聲音越來越輕,像是在說一個不能說的秘密,一旦大聲了,就會驚擾到某個可怕的存在。
“于是我察覺到了,這個世界是創世控着的。有一個超乎我想象的強大存在,它才是這個世界真正的創造者和管理者。為了服從它的意志運轉,規則就此從世界中誕生。在它的意志下,每一個人都有自己的定位,而我的定位是‘創世神’,僅此而已。”
即使是習慣性面癱的杜澤,在這一刻也忍不住動容,望向創世神的目光不由自主地帶上了敬佩。他是小說之外的人自然知道這一切是什麽,而創世神作為一頁知邱筆下的小說角色,居然能發現到這種地步,已經只能用BUG來稱呼了。
似乎很受用杜澤的目光,創世神露出微笑,繼續闡述他的發現:“‘它’并不是唯一的,我還發現許多與它相似的存在,不過那些存在僅僅只是在觀測這個世界,只有‘它’擁有這個世界的管理權限。然而無論哪一方,對于這個世界來說都是無法想象的高位面生命。”
在杜澤回避之前,創世神已經伸手觸碰到杜澤的臉上了,他一眨不眨地凝視杜澤,目光中透着一種對完美物質的迷惑與癡狂。“明明和我們沒有任何區別,甚至比這個世界的普通生靈還要弱小,卻是比這個世界更高級的生命。你不需要遵守規則,能看懂這世界的一切,這個世界在你身上造成的影響也只能維持一天。”
感謝你為小生解釋了零點還原的由來,但君子動口不動手,你要這樣我們還能不能愉快地做朋友了。
“放手。”
創世神注視杜澤冰冷的表情,或許因為某種顧忌和敬畏,他緩緩松開了手指,然後仿佛什麽也沒發生過般重拾話題。
“我們剛剛說到了‘世界的真相’——只有我發現了這件真相,在其他生靈看來,他們可以擁有未知和局限,因為他們不是這個世界最頂端的神,自然不用無所不知、無所不能。因此,他們永遠不會發現在這個世界之上,還有更高層次的存在。”創世神說:“大約是我察覺了‘世界的真相’,從那以後,我就能隐約感受到它的意識了。為了和它打好關系,我開始主動幫它做事:它想削弱魔族,于是我介入了光明神和魔神巴爾的戰鬥;它想衰落精靈,于是我便誘導精靈将感情扔給生命樹;它想消滅侏儒,于是我将時間之輪送給了侏儒族……”
杜澤呆滞地聽着創世神洋洋灑灑地将他做的事全部抖出來,有些是他知道的,有些是他不知道的。但凡幕後BOSS都有一種話唠屬性,不将自己的黑幕爆出來不舒服斯基。創世神也很好繼承了這一優良傳統,于是杜澤就榮幸地得知了《混血》的所有隐藏劇情。雖然有些被劇透的小憂傷,不過這些黑幕也很好地解決了杜澤的一個疑惑,之前得知創世神的一些事跡時,他一直想不通,明明是創造世界的神,創世神為什麽要使用詭計讓所有種族一個個走向滅亡?現在一切都說得通了,創世神只是“名義上”的創世神,他所做的一切都是為了讨好這個世界真正的主人。
“……到了第七紀元,我發現它開始關注一個人。”創世神說到了最後,看到對面的杜澤眼睛蒙上了一層黑亮的光。“沒錯,就是修。”
重點終于要來了嗎?杜澤陷入了一種微妙的亢奮狀态,既激動,又為接下來的真相而不安。
“他很特別,混沌大陸唯一的八種族混血。我很好奇,所以也一直在關注他,看着他漸漸成長,看着他覺醒血脈……看着他登上了天空之城。”
天空之城?是指修帶領魔族攻打天空之城的那段劇情嗎?杜澤的心跳漸漸加快,不知是不是巧合,這正是他在穿越之前最後看到的《混血》章節。
“即使被規則武器攻擊了,他仍是生還了,并變得更加強大。”創世神平淡的聲調有了一絲變化。“通過裁決,我才得以窺見它在那個人身上訂下的強大規則,從而發現了它醞釀的可怕未來——它想讓修成為至高神。”
“你知道這意味着什麽嗎——”創世神的聲音猛地拔高,聲音中盡是憤怒和悲痛。“意味着我必須死!”
創世神的話在杜澤的腦中炸開,将他的思維震成一片一片。創世神看着發愣的杜澤笑了起來,神情充滿了無可奈何的悲傷。
“至高神,至高無上的神,倘若‘創世神’一直存在,後來者再怎麽至高都無法和‘創造了世界’的初始神相比。并且這世上除了創世神外,還有哪一個神祗的神格能配得上至高神這個地位?”
杜澤無意識地咽了咽口水,他看着這樣的創世神,什麽話也說不出來。
“并且在那時候,它不知為什麽消失了,我再也感受不到它的意識——你以為這樣對于我來說就能得救的嗎,錯了,這只是加劇了我的死亡速度!因為它不在了,規則開始失控,為了達成它最後留下的‘讓那個人成為至高神’的意志,規則不擇手段地促使那個人成神:神界與混沌大陸重合,大陸正反面重合,神塔的建成——這一切的一切都是為了讓那個人成為至高神!”
它消失了……?杜澤心中湧起一陣不安,作者發生什麽事了嗎?
“對于規則來說,我是成就那個人的最佳材料。”創世神的表情重歸于平靜,那種靜寂與其說是不憤怒了,不如說是憤怒極點反而什麽都不剩了。“光明神害怕的僅僅是被奪取地位,而我害怕的是被奪取性命。”
創世神一字一頓地對杜澤說:“你覺得我會坐以待斃嗎?”
不會。杜澤心中苦得發澀,他終于知道創世神想要殺死修的原因了,卻找不到任何能譴責對方的地方。
“我不想死,所以我必須做些什麽。之前也說了,規則一旦訂下就無法違背,那就必須在它為那個人制定規則之前,将他從世界上抹去。因此我使用了時間之輪,卻最多只能回到那個人被追殺之時。”創世神嘆息道:“時間法則是世界的根本之一,規則不允許有人去動它,一旦發現,直接抹殺。即使是我,也只能用時間之輪逆轉那麽一次。”
即使知道萌主一直活得好好的,杜澤還是忍不住捏了一把汗,創世神差點就在修出生前把修幹掉了。
“即使知道不可能,我還是做了很多嘗試,依然沒法在規則的保護下殺死那人。這樣下去,我還是只能眼睜睜地看着那個人成長後來摘取我的神格。”創世神說:“然後我開始思考,既然這個世界的人不行,那麽——”
創世神直勾勾地盯着杜澤,杜澤熟悉那種目光,因為之前光明神也是用這樣一種熱烈的目光注視他的。明明對方的視線很是灼熱,但杜澤此刻卻只能感到寒冷,他聽着創世神的話,一股寒意從腳底升起,仿佛連腦漿一同凍結。
“——就只能讓這個世界之外的人來殺死他了。”
那一刻,杜澤連心跳都停止了,臉色由于心髒的痙攣而變得蒼白。他不想聽創世神接下來的話,但對方的話語一個字一個字地鑽入他耳中,刺得他生疼。
“你現在知道你為什麽會來到這個世界了嗎?”
“……”
——知道了。
從來沒有比這一刻更清楚,他穿越到《混血》的原因。
艾利克想要他殺死修,光明神想要他殺死修,類似的話他聽了很多,但沒有一次比創世神這樣對他說來得真實。
杜澤閉了閉眼,像是無法承受般地感到了窒息。
越是想起當初他勢要萌化修的誓言,越是覺得有多滑稽。
就如同光明神所說的一樣,他來到這個世界的意義只有一個,那就是為了殺死修。
杜澤的沉默讓創世神感到了欣喜,這個人終于對自身的定位有所意識了,他們從來都不是敵人,而是站在同一陣線的契約者。
“你們是比這個世界高級的存在,自然不用去遵守這個世界的規則。因此關鍵是該怎麽把你們請過來,這對于我來說也不是太大的問題——至少比殺死那個人簡單得多。早在發現‘它’的時候,我就曾嘗試前往高位面,但好像由于我沒有具備某種‘通行資格’,因此無法進入你們所在的高位面。于是我換了個思考方向,如果不能前往高位面,那麽召喚高位面的生命過來也是可以的。從那時起,我就開始研究怎麽召喚高位面生命。這個研究我做了上億年,勉強完成了召喚法陣,卻沒有想到會在這種情況派上用場。”
杜澤好像麻木了一般,既說不出話,也沒有力量,只能聽着創世神一點點描述他的召喚過程。
“接下來是召喚對象的選擇。‘它’已經消失了,而且‘它’勢要讓修成為至高神,自然不能召喚‘它’過來。于是我決定召喚其他的高位面生命,在那個人逃入失落之地時完成了召喚法陣。”
失落之地……熟悉的名稱讓杜澤稍稍回過神來,他想起當初有一名拿着小黃書的少年站在空曠的平野中呆滞地望着頭頂的兩個月亮。明明是有些滑稽的畫面,現在想起來卻溫馨得讓人想要微笑。
其實穿越的原因并不重要,至少他來到了這個世界,然後遇上了他最喜歡的那個人。
杜澤不再糾結穿越的意義,凝神聆聽創世神的講述。
“召喚過程很順利,你被召喚到這個世界中來,與我達成召喚契約——因為你是高位面的生命,這契約主要是由我單方面地提供的:你能與這個世界的生靈對話,并且具有了我的氣息。”
創世神的每一句話都是爆點,現在回想起來,無論當初精靈主神叫他“父神”,還是獸類對他的那種莫名恐懼,都應該是察覺到他身上帶有創世神的氣息。那些曾經的小疑問一點點被提起解決,最終被創世神的話串成了意想不到的事實。
“然而結果卻出了一些意外:召喚高位面生命這件事超出規則的底線,在召喚結束時,我連你的面都沒見到,就被規則強制囚禁在這裏,并且再也無法直接介入混沌大陸。”光明神盯看着杜澤,眼神複雜無比。“那時候我其實并不擔心,因為在召喚之前,為了達成我的目标,我在法陣中加上了一個召喚條件:召喚過來的高位生命應該要具有和我一樣的想法——那就是希望修死亡。”
咚。杜澤的心髒重重地跳了一下,他想起一件事,并且得出一個萬分滑稽的結論:雖然不知道創世神的召喚機制具體是什麽,但根據創世神的話來推斷,他之所以會被選中,是因為他曾經為了讓作者回心轉意而在《混血》文下發表的黑評。
【……這麽垃圾的主角幹脆死掉算了,根本不給力啊,還不如之前那個聖母。】即使之前無數次懊惱自己的黑粉行為,但這一次,杜澤卻是由衷地感到慶幸。
幸好是他,幸好創世神為了殺死修而召喚的人是他。
“一切都很順利,你們在我的神殿相遇了。”創世神不甘地瞪視着杜澤:“但我沒有想到你居然沒有殺他!”
At that time, the God of Creation realized that something was wrong. He was locked up by the rules and could only communicate with the Chaos Continent through his artifact. Therefore, the God of Creation asked the God of Light to pick up Du Ze on his behalf. He specifically told the God of Light: as long as Du Ze could kill Xiu, no matter what Du Ze asked, he must meet it. Such generous conditions, any normal person would agree, but the God of Creation did not expect that they would miss Du Ze again and again. When the God of Light finally contacted Du Ze, Du Ze rejected them without hesitation. The God of Creation wanted to talk to Du Ze directly, but the rules restricted him very much. If he said too much, his artifact would be directly destroyed. He no longer had the ability to summon a life from a higher plane. Even though Du Ze seemed a little different from what he had imagined, he could only place all his hopes on Du Ze.
"Why didn't you kill him?" The God of Creation looked calm, but if you looked closely, you would notice how deep the hatred was hidden under that calmness. "My summoning array was correct - didn't you want that person to die in the higher plane? Why didn't you kill him, but saved him instead!?"
Facing the question from the God of Creation, Du Ze pressed his earphones and said very softly, "Because... I'm a hater."
It discredits the author, harms the protagonist, pits the readers, and also implicates you as the villain.
“Black…fans?” The God of Creation muttered the word, his tone full of confusion and puzzlement.
The God of Creation would never have thought that the person he recruited into this world not only disliked Xiu, but was also a socially handicapped, brain-dead fan. If any normal person came to this world, they might be moved by the conditions promised by the God of Creation, and might retaliate against Xiu when Xiu bit them back, or might want to replace Xiu as the protagonist when they saw the benefits of Xiu being the protagonist. However, Du Ze is an incurable stupid and cute reader. His social handicap prevented him from quickly integrating into this world, and his stupidity made him firm in his identity as a reader. When all this was broken by Xiu, he had already put the cute master in his heart.
"There was a hater who liked a novel very much. In order to attract the author's attention, he left a comment saying 'I hope the protagonist dies.'" Du Ze's voice with a slightly strange accent gently tapped the pure white space, and his slow and plain tone seemed to be telling an ordinary story. "The villain in the novel noticed the comment, and in order to kill the protagonist, the villain pulled the reader into the novel."
The eyes of the God of Creation grew wider and wider, and he stared blankly at the black-haired young man opposite him. His lips opened and closed several times, and the sound seemed to come from several centuries ago.
“I’m a reader.”
No one stopped Du Ze from telling the final truth, because the two people present were people who more or less understood the "truth of the world."
“This world is a novel.”
——“The world” is the novel, “it” is the author, “rules” are the plot, Xiu is the “protagonist”, and the God of Creation is the “villain”.
As a reader, Du Ze stood opposite the God of Creation and simply spoke the truth of the world.
At that moment, the whole space - no, it should be said that the world trembled. Du Ze's words seemed to hit the root. The trembling could even make people feel the panic and uneasiness when the world's shell was broken and the foundation was exposed. The God of Creation froze. When he heard Du Ze's words, his first reaction was absurd. However, the trembling world told the God of Creation that he was the most absurd one!
"This world... is... a novel...?"
It is difficult to describe the expression of the Creator God at this moment. It was a twisted smile that was a mixture of hope and despair, luck and misfortune.
