416. Aftermath
In this battle for control, Charles undoubtedly lost.
The defeat was utterly devastating.
His remaining consciousness was completely eradicated, and the imprint he left behind was completely removed, leaving him with absolutely no connection to the Demigod, the ' Dream Realm '.
He has completely disappeared.
"Sivinardo... wants me to find this Demigod?"
"It... is hiding some secrets?"
Sulu stared at the information detected in the Attribute Panel for a long time, then slowly nodded. "Regardless, I've come, and I'm going to get what I deserve!"
Even if Sivinardo wanted to use him, he would have to offer him something lucrative first.
At this moment, his Inspiration reached far and wide, permeating both inside and outside the ' Dream Realm,' completely imprinting this Demigod with his own unique mark.
This is a power that even Charles has never wielded!
Just as Sulu had fully grasped the ' Dream Realm '.
A low murmur seemed to echo in his ear:
"When the seeds of arrogance blossom, the Lord of Madness will return amidst the feast!"
The sound was like the scream of a madman, or like severely disrupted electromagnetic waves, accompanied by a hissing sound.
An ordinary person would probably not be able to bear such a voice that comes from the soul; they would either die or go insane.
"This is... a murmur from the Dream of the Ancient God?"
Sulu's expression was solemn, his Inspiration somewhat hazy.
A series of illusions appeared before him.
He seemed to see a towering figure, like the [Purgatory Demon], even more terrifying than the [Purgatory Demon], covered in bright silver runes, roaming the Myriad Spirit World.
He then saw a powerful Mage wearing a wide robe, who waved his hand to directly disturb the Spirit World, creating gates to the Spirit World and summoning countless Spirit World creatures as servants.
Next, the scene changed again:
Sulu seemed to have arrived in the Dream Spirit World, where he saw spellcasters who were skilled in divination and prophecy and could do all sorts of incredible things amidst a bizarre and fantastical world.
On the Attribute Panel, a series of information flashed rapidly:
[Ding, a Tier 6 class— Void Alien Demon —has been detected. In progress...]
[Ding, a Tier 6 class has been detected— Spirit Mage. Processing...]
[Ding, a Tier 6 class has been detected— Dream Caster. Processing...]
"As expected... it would be easy for Sivinardo, the creator of the ' Dream Realm,' to leave behind a sixth-tier legacy within it... Is this also my... reward?"
Sulu felt as if he had developed some kind of tacit understanding with the fallen god Sivinardo.
Or rather, the other party is using one's profession as bait to get one to help them accomplish something.
"Being used is nothing; what's tragic is not even having the value to be used..."
Information on three sixth-tier professions would be enough to make legendary-level professionals fight tooth and nail even in the Main World.
"Furthermore... I also learned that the information about seventh-tier professions must be in the Dream of the Ancient God; it's a secret that Sivinardo kept at the deepest level."
Sulu smiled.
This plan is so intricate, one step leading to another; is this the strategy of the gods?
But as long as one still harbors the ambition to reach the top in their career, it seems they have no choice but to follow the path laid out by the other party.
"The three sixth-tier professions still need time to be organized; now it's time to deal with other matters..."
Most importantly, of course, is this Demigod, which is damaged and needs repair, and its energy is in a state of depletion.
"That's alright. After all, Charles was begging for food while sitting on a gold mine, and many of the artifacts' functions weren't fully activated. But I'm different."
"If we spread our faith, it would definitely be a powerful supplement to the ' Dream Realm,' greatly accelerating its recovery... but it feels like we've been tricked again."
Sulu stroked his chin:
"Besides that, there's the problem of the world... The Inner World is also rife with curses that Player need to cleanse."
He wasn't a good person, but he wasn't a bad guy either.
If the Demigod were taken away directly, this world would most likely be destroyed.
Therefore, there are still some things that need to be taken care of before leaving.
Luo Fei opened his eyes.
"I... I'm already dead, aren't I?"
He was shocked to find himself in a wilderness.
The surrounding scenery had a very familiar feel to it. "This is... a game world?"
"In a way, you are indeed dead... but I have saved your spirit. This is the Inner World, a paradise for spirits, and you can only live in this world now."
Sulu's figure appeared, and he said indifferently.
"Although your voice has changed a bit, this tone... you must be an old man, right?"
Luo Fei smiled bitterly, seemingly understanding a great deal.
This was also caused by Sulu retracting the Shadow Clone that had been manipulating his subconscious.
Simply put, the immature and rebellious phase has matured.
"Yes... Congratulations, you have achieved your dream and eliminated the mastermind behind world domination," Sulu said.
"But you took his place..." Luo Fei stared straight at Sulu, his eyes filled with anger.
"No... I will not rule this world. After a certain period of time, I will leave this world on my own." Sulu shrugged.
It's just a small world; he wouldn't even bother to rule it.
"Leave... this world?" Luo Fei was clearly taken aback by this answer and was immediately stunned.
"But we have a lot to do before we leave."
Sulu smiled, "First of all, there's the Main God Game. It can't be shut down right now; it must continue operating and charging a fee... I'll reach an agreement with the higher-ups on Guni Planet on this matter."
This is also valuable experience for Player; it would be a shame not to take advantage of it.
Of course, the potential danger of dying too many times, leading to the annihilation of one's true spirit and becoming a vegetable, cannot be ignored.
Therefore, he chose to implement a patch that limits the number of times Player can die; once this limit is exceeded, the account will be forcibly banned and logged off.
In addition to this, regarding the repair of the Demigod, Sulu plans to introduce faith.
However, this time, it's definitely not Sivinardo.
He plans to directly create a virtual ' God of Games ', with the ' Dream Realm ' as its Demigod.
Although he knew that doing so was somewhat falling into Sivinardo's trap, the temptation of a complete artifact was simply too great, and Sulu had no choice but to take the risk.
Before shutting down the Main God Game, he also planned to relocate a group of volunteer Player to become natives of the Inner World, just like Luo Fei, completely abandoning their bodies in the Surface World.
They will be the Guardian of the Inner World, eradicating the endless stream of cursed monsters.
There's no way around it; as long as this structure of the Inner World exists, the resentment of the Surface World will be continuously absorbed by the Inner World, forming darkness.
The presence of settled Player carries the important responsibility of periodically cleaning up and releasing floodwaters.
'Perhaps... in time, they will evolve into a completely new kind of Spirit World creature?'
A thought popped into Sulu's mind.
