Chapter 606
The spear, with the force of splitting mountains, struck Su Quan with the speed of the wind and the ferocity of fire.
"Bang!"
The impact was deafening, and the enormous force instantly kicked up dust around the two of them. The wind howled like a dragon, causing the surrounding flowers and plants to tilt and the trees to fall and break at the roots.
Thena stared wide-eyed in disbelief, looking at Su Quan, who remained unharmed and expressionless, with utter disbelief.
"No, that's impossible!"
Thena, in disbelief, raised her spear and slammed it down several times until her wrist was almost giving way, but Su Quan remained unmoved, completely unharmed!
"Finished?"
"It's my turn now..."
Su Quan flicked his finger at the spear on his shoulder, causing ripples in the air. With a crack, the spear, manifested from Cosmic Energy, shattered and exploded.
Thena stumbled back a few steps, her mouth agape as she stared blankly at her now weaponless hand.
A few seconds later, she let out a long, dejected sigh and said, "I lost."
Su Quan raised an eyebrow. "That's it?"
Boundless despair transformed into worship. At this moment, Thena was completely convinced, so as soon as Su Quan's voice fell, she directly and decisively lowered her head, knelt on one knee, and expressed her submission.
Su Quan nodded slightly in satisfaction, said "Come with me," and led her into the Pocket Space.
As soon as they entered, the abnormal beings that had been brought in earlier pounced on the two of them. Thena instinctively conjured her weapon, but Su Quan calmly raised his palm and immobilized the abnormal beings from a distance.
Then, with a downward slap of his hand, as if an invisible force was pressing down on the abnormal person, he directly slammed the abnormal person's four legs apart onto the ground.
"Bang!"
The loud noise was deafening.
Su Quan casually snapped his the Snap. The moment the Snap ended, countless sharp, invisible wind blades seemed to appear on the abnormal being's body, directly slicing through its layers and revealing its internal meridians and structure.
Thena thought Su Quan was just going to kill the abnormal, but Su Quan walked up to the abnormal's corpse and carefully disassembled and examined it.
Thena followed, puzzled, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"Observe its structure."
What's so interesting about observing the structure of an anomaly? Thena was even more puzzled, but she didn't press the matter. Instead, she curiously began to observe the Pocket Space.
The physical structure of the Aberrant appears simple but is actually complex. Unlike the Eternals, whose physical structure is fixed at birth, the Aberrant can evolve...
Each evolution alters the physical structure of the aberrants. The most revolutionary change is that of the aberrant leader, Kro, who, after devouring the energy of several Eternals, not only gained the abilities of those the Devourer but also gradually evolved into a humanoid form, even developing the ability to communicate and think in a more advanced way.
Su Quan wasn't very interested in the evolution of the Abnormal Beings, since he also had that ability. He was only interested in the physical structure and principles of the Abnormal Beings. After all, the Abnormal Beings and the Eternals were of the same origin. If it was difficult to dismantle the Eternals, then it was easy to dismantle the Abnormal Beings!
Phastos's super brain greatly enhanced Su Quan's understanding of technology. The meridians and structures of the abnormal beings, which were like heavenly books, gradually became clear to Su Quan, and he understood both what they were and why they were.
Time flew by in this focused state. After an unknown amount of time, Su Quan, who was completely absorbed in his work, suddenly heard a roar like that of Beast. Immediately afterward, the spear swung down like the wind.
"Bite!"
Amidst the crisp sound of impact, Su Quan saw Thena, her eyes rolled back, weak and delirious.
Ding ding!
Ding ding!
Thena gripped her spear and slashed wildly, displaying a relentless, all-or-nothing attitude.
"Is he suffering from Eternal Madness?"
Su Quan instantly realized what was happening and immediately applied gravity to suppress her.
Immediately following, Psychic Abilities were released, and an invisible Psychic Power drilled into Thena's mind, instantly triggering a flurry of chaotic memory fragments.
Good heavens, such a jumble of fragmented memories all at once, anyone would go crazy in that situation!
Su Quan diverted his attention, turning back to continue studying the anomaly while using his Psychic Powers to help Thena sort through her jumbled memories.
After a while, Thena, who had been struggling, gradually calmed down, and her eyes, which had been filled with white, gradually returned to normal.
"This... this isn't real... this isn't real..." Thena lay on the ground, her eyes vacant, and murmured softly.
"The mission is fake... Olympia is fake... the Eternals are fake too..."
Sometimes, the truth hurts more than a lie.
Thanks to Su Quan's help, Tina's jumbled memories were sorted out and organized. Although incomplete and unsystematic, the fragmented moments were enough for Thena to understand the truth of the matter.
They were created by the Celestials, and the Olympia they remember is not real, nor is it their home planet, but rather the spaceship that created them.
Or rather... the World Forge!
Lies! Betrayal!
Thena's feelings were indescribable; she felt that the beliefs and convictions she had always been so proud of had completely collapsed.
It collapsed completely.
A bewildered Thena saw Su Quan calmly researching the abnormal individuals. He was using his Psychic Abilities to help her sort through her memories, so naturally, he must have also learned the truth.
Why is he so calm?
Did he not know that once the gods were successfully conceived, the world would be destroyed?
No, that's not right, he is...
"You knew all along, didn't you? You knew all along that gods were born on Earth, and you knew all along that we were just pawns of the gods..." Thena felt the gravity on her body disappear, and as she stood up, she asked in a low voice.
"I wouldn't call them chess pieces; they're more like working people."
Without turning his head, Su Quan said, "You are just corporate slaves who have worked for the Celestials for millions of years, working hard and without complaint for millions of years, just to incubate a Celestial. The Celestial destroys a planet and then creates a new one."
"In order to make you Eternals work willingly, the gods sent you to work on planets in groups, ostensibly to do civil engineering, but in reality to be livestock laborers."
"Of course, the wages for civil engineering are not the same as those for animal husbandry, so you all think you are in the civil engineering business."
"When the project was finished, you thought you could take your money home and enjoy a warm bed with your wife and kids, but in reality, your memories were erased and you were sent to the next planet to continue working."
"It is a cycle that continues endlessly."
"The Eternal Madness you have is actually caused by the failure to erase your past memories, which overwhelmed your current memories. Incurable? Heh, of course it's incurable, because it's not even an illness!"
"..."
Thena fell silent. She was angry, she was annoyed, she... was at a loss.
The Celestials deceived them, but what could they do? The Celestials created them, and Celestials power was far beyond their reach...
Beat?
We can't win!
Run?
There's no escaping it!
Even if you run to the ends of the earth, to the very edge of the universe, you will still be caught by the Celestials.
Moreover, regardless of whether they are captured or not, whether a new god is born or Arishem appears, they will not have a good ending.
Being destroyed or eliminated is actually a kind of luck; the worst thing is to have your memories erased again, forget everything, and continue to work for the Celestials!
This is the cruelty of the truth and the helplessness of reality.
A powerful sense of powerlessness enveloped Thena, making it hard for Thena to breathe; she felt like she was suffocating.
"Follow me."
Su Quan calmly said something that was like a ray of light in the darkness, or oxygen in the Deep, giving Thena an instant new lease on life.
She stared intently at Su Quan: "The god is very powerful..."
Su Quan turned to Thena and smiled, "Darling, you don't know what true strength is yet!"
Are the Celestials strong?
Powerful!
But there are many who are stronger than the Celestials!
The Celestials are strong because they far surpass planetary levels; they are strong because they can create planets and universes; they are at the peak of a single universe, but they have not yet reached the level of being able to traverse the Multiverse.
Even if some individual members of the Celestials possess exceptional strength, reaching the Multiverse level or even stronger, the outcome would be no different if they fought Su Quan.
While not entirely accurate, Su Quan definitely belongs to the type who becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents. This "facing" could mean participating in a battle or simply observing. Therefore, it's best for neither the Celestials nor anyone else to appear in front of Su Quan.
Because, defeat is inevitable!
Su Quan's confidence inspired Thena. Thena's personality was inherently clear about her likes and dislikes, and she could submit to Su Quan because Su Quan had defeated her with his strength.
But she refused to submit to the Celestials who had deceived and mocked them, even though the Celestials were their creators!
"Good!"
Thena responded emphatically, then asked, "Should we tell the truth... to others?"
"You dare to defy the Celestials, you dare to defy your creator, but others may not. Even if they know the truth, some will still be willing to work for them."
Working people, working spirit, working people are all superior!
