Qin Ze said calmly, "I can award you a certificate and a big red flower."
Echo:"..."
"Dude, you're kidding me, right?"
Qin Ze: "Then why don't you tell me what you want?"
Qin Ze was already mentally prepared for this heartfelt transaction.
Even if Echo wanted a human head, he could cut one off from a cow or horse and give it to it.
Who says the heads of cattle and horses don't count as heads?
Echo chuckled, "Since you've already put it that way, my good buddy, then I'll speak."
Bai Bai over in vain, which puzzled me.
It didn't understand why Qin Ze was talking to himself over a broken conch shell.
"They're insane! They're all insane!"
Bai Bai never expected that this person would succumb to the pressure before it could.
The Echo sound could only be heard by Qin Ze.
However, Qin Ze shared it with Miss Sword Case Miss Sword Case through the special bond he had with her.
Only the foolish bird remained completely in the Bai Bai.
Bai Bai shook his head, lay back limply, and continued to drift along with the current.
Qin Ze said, "Spit it out, I'm in a hurry."
Echo said, "This time I don't want anything from you, buddy."
Qin Ze was slightly surprised; something was definitely amiss.
Echo continued, "I only need one promise from you."
promise?
It's such a worthless thing.
So far, the Pretty God has made at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, promises to the public.
He can promise anything he can't do.
Qin Ze became interested. "Tell me, what is the promise?"
Echo: "That's really easy for you, buddy."
The next time we meet, I hope we can act as if we've never met before and simply pass each other by.
That's it?
Brother Devour said in a deep voice, "It seems to have foreseen the future."
Echo are Space Rule.
Normally, it cannot glimpse even a corner of the future.
Unless... Hundred Eyes.
Qin Ze thought of their unknown means of communication.
The two of them had previously worked together to escape a predicament.
It's not impossible that if the Hundred Eyes could glimpse the future, they could transmit the information to Echo.
What exactly did the Hundred Eyes foresee?
Qin Ze was silent for a moment before replying, "No problem, I, sword cultivator Lin Zhiyuan, swear to the heavens."
If I were to meet Echo again in the future, I would treat her like a stranger and wouldn't do anything to her.
What does Lin Zhiyuan's promise have to do with me, the Pretty God?
Echo replied, "No, no, no, my good friend, you must swear in your own name."
Qin Ze said emotionlessly, "I am the sword cultivator Lin Zhiyuan, and the sword cultivator Lin Zhiyuan is me."
Echo said calmly, "Who Lin Zhiyuan is is none of my business. You must promise me with your own heart, and heaven will be our witness."
The Dharma King couldn't help but jokingly say, "The two of you are getting a little too close."
"Is the next step going to involve vows of eternal love and a wedding ceremony?"
Even Miss Sword Case found Echo's words rather strange.
"Maybe we should just forget about it and not do business with it. You never made any promises to me."
Qin Ze said to Miss Sword Case alone, "My relationship with it was just a charade, a mere pretense. My relationship with you is the real deal."
"And I promised to take you to the Land of Origin; that was my first promise, made to you."
Miss Sword Case was overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Oh yeah~ You're acting with it."
After comforting Miss Sword Case, Qin Ze said, "How can I make a heartfelt promise? Say it again?"
Echo: "It's very simple. You are still in the heavens right now. Feel it with your heart, and the heavens will turn their attention to you."
"You don't need to say anything; just think it, and heaven will witness our deal."
"If you break your promise in the future, then we can travel together and look out for each other on the road."
Qin Ze closed his eyes.
As the Echo said, sense with your heart.
Almost immediately, Qin Ze felt a gaze fall upon him.
He tried to trace this line of sight back to its source, but his mental energy entered a vast labyrinth.
That gaze was still watching him, but no matter what he did, he couldn't find the exit of the maze, or perhaps the maze simply had no exit at all.
Bang bang~ bang bang~
The " King Engine " started without anyone noticing.
The spiritual tree blossomed in the sea of consciousness, and the labyrinth crumbled in an instant.
With the maze no longer an obstacle, Qin Ze met that gaze.
It was an irregular, constantly changing geometric shape, with an overall dark red hue.
The vertical pupil in the center is composed of countless compound eyes, cold and dark.
Qin Ze had never seen such a chilling gaze before; his entire body went numb instantly, as if he were sinking into an icy sea.
boom--
The giant tree in Qin Ze's sea of consciousness shattered, and the King Engine shut down immediately.
His once-proud mental fortitude crumbled just like that, from the moment he debuted until now.
Qin Ze suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the Magic Conch in his hand.
Echo said, "Very well, Heaven has already branded you. If you break your promise, Heaven will erase you."
Qin Ze muttered to himself, "Those eyes... are they the sky?"
Echo was silent for a few seconds, then became extremely serious. "You just saw the sky? This... how is this possible!"
Qin Ze shook his head.
He really didn't want to look into those eyes again.
For a brief moment, Qin Ze felt as if he were not an ant, but a tiny speck of dust.
God... is far inferior to Heaven.
Qin Ze asked, "What is Heaven?"
Echo replied, "This deal went very smoothly, so I'll chat with you for free."
"Heaven is the creator of everything, including you and me, and even God."
Qin Ze recalled his conversation with the God of Machinery.
All the Myriad Races the Abyss know that the Goddess of Life is the Creator, but where did this Creator come from? Now we have the answer.
The Echo's tone suddenly turned desolate. "We're nothing more than clinging to life now."
"Good buddy, cherish the time you have now."
There's no need to get involved in those messy things; living in the present is the most important thing.
Qin Ze rolled his eyes. "You've become a life coach now?"
What's free is often the most expensive.
If we continue the conversation, Echo will have to open up again.
Qin Ze said solemnly, "The transaction is complete. Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise."
Echo seemed to have a dual personality, instantly snapping out of her emo state.
"We're too far apart; I can't pinpoint your exact location."
Qin Ze's expression turned cold. "Trying to break the contract?"
Echo: "Calm down, let me finish."
While I can't pinpoint your exact location, I can pinpoint an area where you are.
"If I open up the entire world in your area, you'll be able to get out, won't you?"
"So, am I a genius?!"
The Echo was filled with self-satisfaction at its own intelligence.
Qin Ze said, "You can operate it?"
The Echo replied, "The conch shell is an area anchor point; just shout what you want to say towards it."
Qin Ze weighed the conch shell in his hand.
What should I say?
