Compromise!
World Calendar Year 423.
Lin Feng ultimately sided with the Chaos Splitter, inadvertently exposing Qin Leng's information.
This information was crucial, directly prompting 009 to urgently change his strategy and begin plotting a new plan.
Meanwhile, because it's uncertain what Odin might be up to in the shadows, 009 can only passively guard against Odin for the time being.
Previously, 065 Aznan was killed, and the Chaos Splitter once again won a crown, while also gaining a unique piece of loot.
Odin's arm.
009, who has the ability to All-Things Fusion, could have attached this hand to his own body, but he didn't.
009 felt a deep sense of disgust at every breath Odin took from that mysterious figure.
Moreover, Odin has too many abilities, and there might be something bad on that severed hand, such as something that could affect a person's consciousness.
So this severed hand was eventually collected by 009 in the artifact storage vault.
Meanwhile, on the other side, some problems arose in the Dragon Empire of the Central Continent.
Nage and Yebu suddenly returned to the Central Continent and came before Ye Long.
So what exactly are we?
"Aren't we your sons too?!"
"Father God?!"
Ye Long stared coldly at Nage and Yebu, "Is this your excuse for ignoring orders? Who gave you the audacity to question me?"
The identity of the father of the Blasphemous Twins remains a question mark.
Why do I say that?
Ye Long never considered them to be his own bloodline, and they didn't possess any of the dragon race's abilities.
All their abilities point to 004, but none of them are related to Ye Long.
Mental Contamination, old derivatives— Ye Long always suspected that these two children were not his bloodline, but rather 004's illegitimate offspring with someone else, or simply 004's own offspring.
The Church of the Mother Goddess and everything 004 brought seemed to be aimed at overthrowing the foundation of the Dragon Empire.
But now, they are deeply rooted together and have become an inseparable part of each other.
The Church of the Mother Goddess, with two gods coexisting, yet with the Mother Goddess as the main deity, clearly indicates that 004 wants to overthrow the Church and take control.
But at this moment, Ye Long was in a situation where one move could affect the whole situation. Even if he knew everything, he could only turn a blind eye to the long-standing problems within the Imperial Alliance.
But today, the Blasphemous Twins clearly came prepared.
They captured Long Qi and detained him directly in front of Ye Long.
"Father God, I know you look down on us, so we can only take what we want ourselves!"
"Father God, please acknowledge our identity!"
Threaten.
Looking at Long Qi, who had been Blasphemous Twins, Ye Long's expression was unusually cold. These two brainless idiots dared to threaten him; this was definitely not their own idea.
Therefore, it can only mean that someone is behind this.
Ye Long noticed something: the Blasphemous Twins' strength had advanced to the upper fourth rank after their return.
Well, after all, they still have some value to be used.
"My children, you are still young and cannot see the dangers of this world. When I hide you behind others, am I not also protecting you?"
"Since you insist on this, then so be it, I will grant your wish this time."
Upon hearing Ye Long's reply, the two brothers were overjoyed and immediately kowtowed to thank Ye Long.
They got what they wanted, but Ye Long was already planning when to get rid of these two troublemakers.
They still have value at this moment, but that doesn't mean Ye Long will use them indefinitely.
Their current appetite is small; they only want a formal title. But a person's appetite can keep growing.
These two are ultimately ticking time bombs, destined not to stay long.
After the two left, 004 came in from behind and said, "That's all the children have to hope for, why make things difficult for them?"
Ye Long looked at 004; her belly was slightly protruding. If she hadn't eaten too much, then she was pregnant again.
"What, the Dragon Empire is about to add another major force? Aren't you happy?"
Ye Long didn't answer; he just sat there, looking thoughtful.
We can't handle 004's situation yet, Isis's abilities are very important, so we can't touch her for now, and the situation with Meng Qing is unclear.
And then there's the Golden King and Qin Leng, who are also a problem.
The open sea.
Li Yuan, who had been secretly observing the collision of the two continents, had been sleeping a lot lately.
After he orchestrated the unification of the two continents, which subsequently led to war, he often fell into a deep sleep.
Things didn't go too smoothly.
Li Yuan's plans always got stalled at crucial points.
With everything going wrong, Li Yuan couldn't help but reflect on his past actions.
The angel said that his plan, his seal, had a fatal flaw.
What exactly is that defect?
Li Yuan tried to find the answer in his dreams, but to no avail. Until today, the arrival of an uninvited guest has answered Li Yuan's doubts.
It was none other than an angel.
When Mo met Li Yuan again, he was surprisingly calm this time.
"Long time no see."
Li Yuan opened his eyes, but did not speak.
Mo chuckled lightly, "What, haven't you figured out the answer yet?"
Li Yuan: "So, is there really an answer?"
"If that answer really exists, then the result I get cannot always be zero."
Mo nodded. "It seems you're taking this very seriously. That's good, it matches my understanding of you."
"But what if I told you that this is a hypothetical false proposition?"
"I've thought about that seal for a long time but haven't figured out how to break it. So, the one who tied the knot must untie it. I'll put this problem back to you and let you figure out how I can break your methods."
"Use your mindset to break the trap you've set up; this is the closest you can get to success."
"But if even you couldn't think of that loophole, then I've lost."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan smiled inwardly. It turned out that the problem that had troubled him for so many years had never existed in the first place.
"It was such a simple misconception..."
Mo looked at Li Yuan and said, "Aren't you the same? You used a very simple misleading thought process to trap me in a cognitive bias."
"Sometimes the simplest and most inconspicuous little things are the easiest to overlook."
Li Yuan was puzzled. "But why are you telling me this? To you, making this clear is tantamount to surrendering."
Mo: "I just suddenly realized something."
"Actually, the way to win this game is very simple: all you need is for half of the sequences to form an alliance."
Li Yuan: "But that's precisely where the problem lies. Things that are easy to talk about are not necessarily easy to do."
"Humans are not beings who can think rationally in all situations, even when the formula for victory is right in front of them."
