Upon seeing this, Roger's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

He then looked at Ghost Bro:

Who is the person you trust most?

Ghost Bro shook his head:

"I can't even remember if I was a virgin when I was alive..."

Roger remained silent.

But look at the ghost with a completely calm face.

He felt a profound sadness again—

To die like Telodal.

His authority was stolen by a despicable and shameless demon.

No one knew about his death.

It is a truly tragic thing that even one's own departed soul cannot remember the past.

Even Telodal was like this.

What about the other ordinary people? The living environment on the Nine Great Planets is too harsh, and even the gods are living in dire straits. This sense of crisis urges Roger to become stronger quickly.

He desperately wanted to know what had caused all of this!

Roger then started chatting casually with Ghost Bro.

It has to be said that this guy has severe memory loss.

However, he has a wealth of knowledge in other areas.

Roger took the opportunity to ask him about areas where he lacked knowledge.

Half an hour later.

Roger reaped a huge reward.

He even had the urge to use the Beast Taming Ring to tie up the Ghost Bro and keep him as his pet! And in the process...

Ghost Bro mentioned a theory that was novel and shocking to Roger.

That's "Drawing Theory"!...

In Drawing Theory.

Ghost Bro explained the relationship between the Nine Great Planets, the Aberrant Matter, and the Vortex Creature.

"In the process of creating a painting, you initially only have one sheet of paper. Actually, even if you only have a blank sheet of paper, it can still look beautiful, right? And no one has said that a blank drawing is not allowed, has they? The blank paper itself might even have a survival instinct..."

"But no one can control their urge to express themselves. When you hold a paintbrush and stand in front of the paper, you always want to scribble something. So you start to paint, at first just a few dots, but later the area covered by the paintbrush increases and the blank areas decrease... This is the inevitable trend, and also fate..."

In the end, regardless of whether the painting itself is mediocre or brilliant, the lost blank space can never be made up for!

"Therefore, in the eyes of the artist, the Nine Great Planets, or any uninfected universe, are a blank sheet of paper."

The Aberrant Matter is pigment;

The Vortex Creature are merely paintbrushes;...

As long as the person holding the paintbrush cannot control their creative desires.

So putting pen to paper is only a matter of time.

The only suspense is perhaps how much blank space will ultimately remain in this painting! As for whether the painting is excellent or not.

It's beyond the comprehension of insignificant creatures like us..."

These words deeply shook Roger's soul.

He never considered the Aberrant Matter he was fighting against with all his might.

It's merely a paintbrush in the hands of some higher being!

He knew, of course, that Ghost Bro's Drawing Theory was somewhat nihilistic.

But his instincts strongly favored this theory.

This instinct made him feel anxious.

So he asked:

"And the gods? And those above the gods? There must be someone among you who has glimpsed the artist, I mean, assuming he exists..."

The Ghost Bro remained silent.

After a while.

He said to Roger:

"I'm going to disappear completely."

This body is now in your hands.

Oh, right.

And this authority.

If one day you can reclaim control of that planet.

That was my greatest comfort...

After saying that.

Under Roger's regretful gaze.

The Ghost Bro turned into rain of light and dissipated.

One of the points of light landed steadily on the back of Roger's hand.

On the data panel.

"Hint: You have obtained the right to use the Celestial God Body Remains of Telodal. Remaining uses: 3"

"You have acquired one-third of the Star Master Authority over Telodal."

"Why me?"

Roger was somewhat surprised.

I couldn't help but ask a question in a low voice.

"Because you are the first human I encountered after my death, and the first person to correctly call me by my name, that reason is enough..."

Ghost Bro's voice echoed softly in Roger's heart.

You can still faintly hear his hearty laughter.

Roger stood there for a very long time.

Unfortunately, that regret never came again.

The Xia Yin Realm.

In a deserted corner.

In her Second Form, Cindy crosses her arms over her chest.

He looked down at Roger with a cold expression:

"So, has the esteemed Star Master finally found a use for me?"

Roger coughed awkwardly twice:

"Don't put it so harshly..."

"I just wanted to know if you know anything about Telodal?"

"Oh, Aperture Opening? You want to learn how to manage a harem?"

Cindy said with a half-smile:...

"Telodal is most famous among the gods for his harem. Don't look at me like that, I know what you're thinking..."

hehe.

They didn't become gods before using Martial Force to kidnap others.

In fact.

Before He became a god.

At least a hundred Goddess of varying ranks in the heavens have actively sought to join his harem...

He was quite the womanizer back then.

His conflicts with women could fill ten books!

His brother, Ao, was also very troubled by this...

"Oh? You mean his brother is Oh?"

Roger's heart skipped a beat.

"Yes, Telodal and O are brothers. Before becoming gods, they were two of the most famous of the Ten Hunters among the younger generation of the Celestial Gods Race!"

Cindy replied lazily, "Oh, right, there was once a piece of gossip in the Celestial Realm, about Telodal and O's mistress, Pandora..."

"Ah?"

Just as Roger was about to ask more questions...

The once calm and peaceful Star Master Authority suddenly began to tremble violently!

"Warning: Two Historical World are colliding due to entanglement at a special spacetime node!..."

The West Tallen and the Green Whisper Mountains have begun to intertwine!...

Sensing special spatiotemporal nodes...

You've discovered the Celestial God Game Center!

Within the layers of historical curtains.

A faint green light appeared softly.

Not far from the green light was a patch of azure light.

Influenced by spacetime gravity.

The two beams of light intertwined here, forming round spots of light.

The two points of light are enveloped by a thick, book-like background.

And right between the two points of light.

An extremely thin, needle-like object is slowly growing.

The tip of the needle-like object was silvery-white.

A thin, silvery liquid was continuously oozing from the tip.

Wherever the silver liquid went.

The phenomenon of spacetime adhesion has become more severe!...

Roger slowly withdrew his gaze from the Star Master Authority.

"The Cloud Sea Realm has actually collided with the Green Whisper Mountains!?"

He had a bit of a headache.

It concerns time, space, and history.

This should not be taken lightly.

He quickly consulted the knowledge contained within authority.

The cause of the accident was quickly deduced.

The course of history is predetermined.

Roger previously used the Star Master Authority Sovereign to accelerate the return of the Historical World.

This action itself carries a certain risk.

If you're lucky, then it's fine.

If you're unlucky, you'll end up like this—

The two returning Historical World were drawn together by a particular point in the river of time.

The two are intertwined.

This eventually created a temporary spacetime vortex!

No one knows how long this spacetime vortex will last.

No one knows what kind of twists and turns might occur during this period.

Based on Roger's understanding of time and space.

He didn't even know what kind of side effects it would cause!

Based on current observations.

He only discovered that the Cloud Sea Realm and the Green Whisper Mountains seemed to be merging together—which was not good news!

Before merging with the present world.

If two historical events are combined...

When the new world they create returns to the present world, it will cause an unprecedented shock! This shock may trigger all sorts of disasters.

It could even lead to the return of the Calamity Goddess! This is certainly not what Roger wants to see.

Therefore, he immediately intervened to observe through the Star Master Authority.

result.

He discovered that the key factor that triggered the merging of the two Historical World was a special node in the river of time and space— the Celestial God Game Center that Roger had marked before!

He did some research.

The two Historical World are currently in a state where they are essentially captured by the powerful gravitational pull released by the Celestial God Game Center.

To resolve this predicament, we must start with the Celestial God Game Center.

As long as this gravitational pull can be removed.

With its own authority, it should be able to guarantee the smooth return of the Historical World.

Thinking about this...

Roger was both excited and worried.

The excitement stemmed from the fact that this unexpected event allowed him to enter the game center located in the annals of history without the assistance of a high-ranking mage.

The concern lies in...

If I don't handle this matter well, there will likely be a lot of trouble later on.

He composed himself.

Then his consciousness completely immersed itself in the Star Master Authority.

He set off from the edge of the Cloud Sea Realm.

Its consciousness, like tentacles, slowly approached the barrier of the Celestial God Game Center.

Very soon.

The data panel then displayed the following message.

"Prompt: You have discovered the Celestial God Game Center. Do you wish to enter?"

Welcome to the Celestial God Game Center!

Current player status: Regular player.

Play permissions: Play the trial version of the game.

Tip: You can earn 'Expert Player' status by completing the three demo games!

Each time you complete a trial version of the game.

You will then receive a ' Pandora's Treasure '!...

All you need to do is complete a demo version of the game.

You are about to gain access to and play in the Celestial God Game Center 'Lobby'!

"As long as I can enter the hall, even if I can't gain higher privileges, I should be able to neutralize this special gravitational pull by simultaneously manipulating two Historical World..."

With this thought, Roger felt much more at ease.

He knew the Celestial God Game quite well.

They have plenty of cards to play.

Completing a demo version of a game shouldn't be too difficult for him! And based on these explanations...

He was more interested in the ' Pandora's Treasure ' mentioned in the reward!...

"Does that mean if I complete all three games in one go, I can get three treasures?"

Roger was starting to get restless.

Pandora could be O'Hara's wife or lover.

He himself was a god who had released the Hollowing Curse.

The treasure left behind shouldn't be too bad! Especially considering Roger's experience.

Any treasures or lands that involve the Two-Dimensional World are of excellent quality!

"We must acquire all three of these demo games!"

Roger encouraged himself.

The next moment, his gaze swept over the descriptions of the three games.

Game 1: The Art of Dressing.

Note: In this game, you will encounter women of different professions, ages, and personalities.

You will experience their daily struggles from a third-person perspective.

What should I wear today?...

The different combinations you choose will produce different effects.

Please make sure to match the clothing and appearance of the women based on their needs, backgrounds, habits, and other factors.

After each outfit is put together.

You will receive an evaluation score.

Scoring rules:

A score of 60 or above is considered passing.

A score of 80 or above is considered excellent.

A score of 95 or higher is considered perfect.

Clearance conditions: Get an "Excellent" rating ten times in a row, or a "Perfect" rating three times in a row.

Game 2: Shipwreck Simulator

Description: A text-based adventure game.

The main setting of this game is a grid map; in the game, you will play a character who is shipwrecked and stranded at sea.

At the start of the game.

You will have a boat and a small amount of supplies.

Under normal circumstances, you cannot control the direction of the ship's movement; you can only drift with the current.

You might encounter a well-maintained island; or you might encounter extreme weather;...

Try your best to survive in exile and work hard to find a way to escape...

Clearance conditions: Reach land; encounter a search and rescue ship or other vessel;

Arrive at Moonlight Island and complete the island's missions.

Game 3: Crazy Pinball.

Description: In the game, you will play as a Crazy Pinball.

You will face an extremely complex environment.

You must avoid all oncoming obstacles within a specific time limit and score points by colliding with specific targets.

Different targets represent different scores, and you must do everything you can to get a higher score.

The first round lasts 120 seconds; this time is halved for each subsequent round.

The game can last a maximum of ten rounds.

The later the round, the higher the score of the target object.

Each round.

You will receive extra points as a bonus.

Pass condition: You must reach 100,000 points or more before the time limit expires.

After reading the descriptions of the three games.

Roger's mind raced.

According to difficulty.

He ranked the three games in order—

The simplest one is definitely "The Art of Dressing"! Isn't that just a dress-up game for cute girls?

The difficulty level is just so-so.

Roger asked himself, based on his own aesthetic standards.

If you can't beat the game in one life.

That must mean the game developers have something wrong with their brains...

The second one is "Shipwreck Simulator".

The problem with this game is that it's highly random and doesn't offer much room for skillful play.

However, judging from the conditions for completing the game, it seems that this game also has story missions.

There should be some room for exploration within the game.

The difficulty level isn't particularly high.

But it certainly won't be that easy to solve.

Finally, there's "Crazy Pinball".

This is a game that tests your skills.

Roger has never been good at this.

So he put this game last.

"Let's start with the simplest one!"

After making up my mind.

Roger quietly chose "The Art of Dressing"! A faint blue light appeared.

His perspective followed him into the game.

The next moment.

Roger entered a woman's room from a 45-degree angle.

The room was very small.

After placing a single bed, there is very little space left.

But the room's owner still stubbornly placed a full-length mirror in the gap at the foot of the bed.

Next to the mirror is a folding wardrobe.

There was also a low stool next to the bed.

There aren't many clothes in the wardrobe.

But they were all hung up neatly and ironed perfectly.

There was also a laundry basket in the corner of the room.

However, what's strange is...

Besides the dirty clothes, there were also some clean clothes here.

This included several pieces of underwear that had faded from washing.

Roger's gaze swept frantically across the room.

Lines of information also appeared in the data column.

Background: You are a working professional who graduated two years ago and just paid off your student loans last month;...

You don't have much money on hand.

But you still bought an expensive outfit for today's company annual meeting;

I just called my mother back home yesterday. You know that my father's health is deteriorating, but in order not to worry you, my parents always pretend that everything is fine on the phone.

You feel powerless in this situation.

But you vowed to change this situation;...

There's been a rumor going around the company lately—that you only got promoted to this enviable position by hooking up with the director, but you know that's not true;...

Your rival will also be at today's company annual meeting.

Therefore, you must be in your best mental state;

You're attending the company's annual meeting tonight, and your main outfit is already decided, but there are still three things that need to be considered and adjusted—

First, lipstick;...

Second, shoes;...

Third, the necklace;...

Please match the clothing and appearance of the woman in front of you based on all the materials in the room...

"No problem!"

I quickly scanned the background.

Roger confidently reached out his hand to the woman sitting listlessly on the edge of the bed.
