Water of Origin and Rootless Wood
[Eden], the Final Ritual...
Now that things have come to this, the Book Spirit has made everything perfectly clear.
"Is there really no way to intervene?"
Looking at the scenes of life in Tong's dream world displayed on the Light Screen in front of him, Bai Zhi frowned slightly.
In a wonderful world where any wish can be fulfilled, completing the Final Ritual would be a simple matter. However, due to the presence of the Book Spirit, the continuous Nightmare temporarily interrupted the completion of the ritual.
However, it is clear that this method only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.
As time goes by, the Special Effect of the Nightmare diminish. If a decision is not made before the ritual is completed, Tong will fall into that Hell Eden along with the Book Spirit.
Getting involved with Evil God means death is the best you can hope for.
"Before she found me, she had already become Retainer, absorbing the Strength of Experiment Zero and completing her revenge."
Instead of giving a direct answer to Bai Zhi's question, Book Spirit started talking about other things.
"When she had no more attachment to this world and was about to go to the real Eden, she found me. At that moment, the Final Ritual could no longer be stopped."
"Can you decide for yourself whether or not to go to Eden?"
Bai Zhi frowned.
Whether she goes or not, Eden is her final destination.
The Book Spirit shook its head.
"After gaining Strength, those Evil God Retainer who fell into darkness would choose to destroy the world and offer it to their gods. But she was different; all she wanted was revenge. After she had taken her revenge, she decided to go to Eden... Even though she ended up finding me by chance, the Final Ritual had already begun."
"Is that so... Then do you know the real name of that Evil God [Eden]?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi asked the question.
"If we recite its real name here, will it come? If so... what kind of look is that?"
"If I knew his name, do you think I'd still be here? If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."
Turning her head to the side, Book Spirit spoke calmly.
"If the true names of those beings were revealed, the Strength contained within those names would be enough to destroy a world, unless that world possesses an entity with equivalent defensive Strength."
So you don't know?
Bai Zhi looked slightly disappointed.
"... It cannot be known; only their chosen Retainer are qualified to know their name."
The Book Spirit clearly sensed the disdain in someone's words and remained silent for a moment.
"The death of a member of their Retainer is nothing to those Evil God. They don't bother with trivial matters like losing One Yuan Coin today. But if you were to actually draw their attention, do you know what terrifying consequences that would be?"
"Is it scary...?"
Bai Zhi reached out and touched his chin, pondering for a moment.
Even a mere glance from the [Lord of Flesh and Blood], who wasn't yet Evil God, was incredibly imposing; one could only imagine the sheer power of Evil God above him. So, he could certainly imagine how terrifying it was... perhaps?
After all, when the [King of Flesh and Blood] fled, he really didn't pose much of a threat...
"Wait, if you put it that way, if Evil God Retainer appear in a world, then that world is bound to be destroyed?"
Bai Zhi suddenly realized a big problem.
"After all, anyone who is Evil God Retainer knows the Evil God's true name. So, if that Retainer secretly recites the Evil God's true name to summon the Evil God, wouldn't it be easy to destroy the world?"
"First, only those beings chosen by Himself can be called true Retainer and are qualified to know their names."
Looking up at him, the Book Spirit's eyes revealed a rather human-like disdain.
"Secondly, according to your claim that one can summon Evil God simply by reciting its true name, who exactly is the Retainer? Do you think it's possible to summon someone just by reciting their true name? Without sufficient offerings and proper rituals, the most likely consequence of rashly reciting their true name is that you will suffer the most vicious Curse, a fate worse than death."
"Www. hetushu. com, is that right? I've always thought it was pretty simple..."
He didn't see the strong look of disgust in the other person's eyes. With his arms crossed, Bai Zhi looked thoughtful.
After all, back in the Rose Manor, didn't Anna summon the [Lord of Flesh and Blood] and [Lord of Flesh and Blood] simply by reciting his true name?
Although at the time, it's also possible that the [Lord of Flesh and Blood] wanted to take advantage of the [Doll Princess]'s slumber to snatch Anna away from her, which is why he was so tense...
In that case, Anna's Special might exceed his imagination, and he wondered if Qingyi's side had actually succeeded...
"Honestly, is it really impossible to completely interrupt the Final Ritual or find a way to intervene?"
Shaking his head slightly, Bai Zhi temporarily set aside the speculations that had arisen in his mind, and asked the Book Spirit in front of him with a slightly furrowed brow.
"Even if an ant tried its best, it couldn't break a glass jar; the difference in Strength is too great."
The Book Spirit spoke calmly.
"You have ten minutes to consider. In ten minutes, the Final Ritual will be completed, and she will fall into Eden. Killing her before then is the only way to save her."
"The difference in Strength levels is too great... Would it work if the Strength Level were the same?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi suddenly asked a question.
"What if we use the Evil God Power to fight against Evil God?"
"Do you have Item of that Level?"
This time, the Book Spirit was genuinely surprised.
She and Tong had inexplicably entered into a contract, so her Life and Death and death were tied to Tong's. If Tong fell into Eden, she would also fall into that Hell; if Tong died, she would die as well.
Given the chance to live, who would willingly choose to die?
Moreover, her self-awareness hadn't even been established for very long.
How about this one?
Without any further hesitation, Bai Zhi directly took the [Pitch Black Rubik's Cube] out of his Inventory.
Ever since it devoured a Curse Origin within the Domain of Delirium, the previously balanced Strength originating from the [Lord of Flesh and Blood] and the [Doll Princess] have become completely unbalanced after the addition of a new Strength.
Even now, the system's assessment of this item is still in the evaluation stage.
"..."
After staring at the [Pitch Black Rubik's Cube] in Bai Zhi's hand for a while, Book Spirit looked up at him.
"Water of Origin, Rootless Wood. It cannot stop the Final Ritual, but I can use it as a springboard to send you into that world, but the process is very dangerous..."
"No problem, hurry up, let's get going!!!"
Bai Zhi waved his hand, directly interrupting the other person.
Book Spirit: "..."
