In the year 4620 of Norton, a momentous event shook the Human Federation.
The Pale Holy See's regent, Duoxia, has returned and once again wields supreme power.
The news, once released, caused extreme excitement among the Human Federation.
Everyone thought that this emperor, who had persisted in the struggle for a thousand years, would return to supreme power and lead humanity to continue the struggle.
Unexpectedly, just three days later, a notice was issued from the Pale Holy See and the Human Federation.
" The Pale Church will forever perish, Pale God is a tyrant and a traitor to the people!"
The Human Federation established the Aberration Research Department in Norton 4517. This department was founded because the Human Federation Research Institute observed that Star System Aberration exhibited predatory behaviors similar to those of intelligent organisms, such as cooperative captivity. This led to the hypothesis that Aberration might develop sentience, thus prompting the establishment of the Aberration Research Department.
However, establishing a research department in this way is a major blunder in both logic and reality!
Human warfare, from beginning to end, has always emphasized knowing oneself and one's enemy to achieve victory in every battle. Therefore, all kinds of wars in history and culture have had relevant intelligence departments and organizations at various levels to study the opponent, which is only natural.
Why, after a millennium of struggle against Aberration, has an internal research department for Aberration only been established now?
The reason for all of this is that we humans are being blinded by some kind of will!
The so-called research on the birth of intelligence from Aberration is utterly absurd. According to the specific research and discussion of the Pale Academy of Sciences, so-called Star System Aberration are merely a group of living flesh cells gathered together! They do not possess any nerve or muscle structures that can drive the body, nor do they possess any nerve or brain tissue that can generate thought. Their existence itself should be like a mountain of flesh, silent yet full of life.
Therefore, we come to the only conclusion: the so-called flesh-erosion by Aberration, and the so-called wisdom of Aberration breeding and cooperation, are all controlled by humans to erode humanity!
Humanity subconsciously ignores research on Aberration, only knowing how to fight stubbornly and make pointless sacrifices. Ultimately, all of this is being manipulated by this person!
The descent of the supreme deity is to gather the Anchor of thought, to unite the spirit through faith, and to shape the divine body through the spirit.
The Pale God Norton descended in this way, as he himself said, and video footage of this still exists today.
Therefore, the coming of God is also the result of the thoughts of countless people, which can gather in one's body.
However, since God is superior to Norton, Norton harbors deep fears and, in order to completely replace God's prestigious name, completely block God's will.
He calls himself the Pale God, abolishes traditional sects, and relinquishes the authority of eternal life, attempting to thereby completely unite humanity's faith and venerate him as God!
However, human desires are ever-growing, and unchanging peace will only lead to internal destruction. Therefore, they fabricate wars, use external conflicts to divert internal pressure, and use the life and death of the human race to create eternal reverence!
Therefore, he completed a grand sacrifice long before the arrival of the Aberration in order to win over the people and establish his divine status.
The so-called ban on Heaven and reality is nothing but a lie.
According to detailed data from the Soul Research Institute, the concentration of souls in reality exhibits both uniformity and fluctuation across different regions. In reality, the fluctuations of souls in various locations and even galaxies rise and fall like a wave-like curve.
The analysis of the results leads to only one conclusion: this real world is filled with Soul Matter everywhere. Although the overall concentration fluctuates like waves, the concentration of Soul Matter in all areas increases and decreases simultaneously.
If Heaven and reality are separated, then only the creation of souls in war zones will occur.
Therefore, the above conclusions completely overturn the hypocrisy and lies of its feudal Heaven and reality.
This so-called grand sacrifice and the struggle for the survival of humanity are all purgatory on earth that he personally created in order to unite the people's faith and achieve supreme divinity!
The so-called intelligence and mad invasion of the Aberration are all empty illusions fabricated to exert pressure on humanity!
But they would never have imagined that this method of applying pressure would be proof of their own flaws.
Without the illusion of intelligence arising from Aberration, humanity would never have been able to conduct research on Aberration —which we have long forgotten and may have forgotten permanently—within the mental prison it has created, nor would it have been able to uncover the truth behind this deception!
Although he is high above and great like a god, in essence he is nothing more than a despicable devil filled with endless evil thoughts and desires, and nothing more than a petty person with clumsy and despicable methods!
Humanity may perish because of it!
A single statement sparked a massive uproar.
The public opinion of the Human Federation, which had been suppressed by the Pale Church and the Human Federation Government in the past, suddenly exploded, far more frantically than ever before.
Humanity's struggle has lasted for over 1,500 years. From beginning to end, what has kept them fighting, what they have the strongest faith in, and what has supported their fearful souls from collapsing, is the holy, majestic, self-sacrificing Pale God, Norton!
It can be said that Norton has long been a totem of human spiritual civilization, a symbol of Norton civilization. He has long been deeply rooted in the lowest levels of human civilization, from beggars on the street to the powerful and wealthy. Everyone knows Norton, almost everyone believes in Norton, and everyone possesses the power of immortality bestowed by Norton. Norton has become the most basic component of human civilization and the only hope for the human race.
However, at this very moment, after humanity has struggled for millennia, sacrificing countless lives, and while countless people fear tomorrow yet cling to the sole hope of Norton's arrival, Norton's most loyal supporters, the Pale Church, have suddenly declared that Norton is the very cause of their current suffering. How can this not be devastating? How can this not drive people mad? How can this not cause a collapse of public opinion?
This is like saying that Jesus, nailed to the cross, was a sealed demon, and this statement was even issued by the Church itself. Such statements, which would seem extremely surreal even in an atheistic world, are being released in a theistic world, a world where gods are so closely connected to humans. What kind of terrifying shock will this bring?
As a result, the internet completely exploded.
"Impossible! The Pale God is holy and boundless, majestic and radiant. He grants the authority to live forever and the path to Divine Stage, bestows immense power and eternal peace. He is the greatest and most selfless being in Garden of Eden. He even sacrificed himself to preserve humanity. Why has your Pale Church, after a thousand years of struggle, suddenly decided to smear His Majesty's name? Perhaps the Pale Church has been invaded by the devil; they have become the devil's lackeys, wantonly insulting His Majesty's venerable name! I propose that we immediately storm the Holy See, purge the devil, and cleanse His Majesty's holiness!"
"No, no, no, it's all fake! It's all made up by your Church! You're definitely trying to defect to the enemy, you're definitely trying to submit to the mutants, you're definitely Aberration! The Pale God can't possibly do anything, that's my most devout faith!"
"This Church has gone mad, it's a demonic cult. I propose releasing Gore immediately and nuking the Holy See!"
"Damn it, I knew it! I told you something was wrong! In the past, as I summarized and observed the thousands of years of human history and the past deeds and self-sacrifice of the Pale God Norton, I felt it was increasingly hypocritical."
How could this colossal demon, who wreaked havoc on both natural and man-made disasters in ancient times, who casually killed millions and oppressed hundreds of thousands of Vampire to pull his cart at the beginning of his resurrection, possibly have a change of heart and sacrifice himself in just a thousand years?
This bastard's evolutionary path has historically been one of increasing inhumanity! His crimes are countless throughout history, and he hasn't experienced any major events in the past thousand years to temper his character. How could he possibly suddenly become good?
In this light, this beast, worse than a pig or a dog, is indeed incorrigible and has once again stirred up a terrible disaster! He deserves to die, he should have died long ago!
"Twelve volumes of military records, each bearing my name. You don't really think the accounts of that Pale God Norton in previous history books are all fake, do you? They are all proof of the blood and tears of our predecessors!"
"Hahahaha, it's all fake, fake! The Pale Church is fake, humanity is fake, the Pale God is fake, it's all fake, hahahaha..."
"Bang!"
A window shattered.
In a human city on the surface of a star system, a window on a floor of a residential building thousands of meters high was smashed. A figure crashed down with shards of glass, shattering into pieces on the ground, blood and internal organs splattering everywhere.
On the brain-computer projection screen that had been ejected from the skull after the head was smashed, the joint statement of the Pale Holy See and the Human Federation Government was still playing.
Such a bloody and cruel scene would have surely caused screams from the surrounding crowd in the past. However, this time, the shattered body not only failed to elicit gasps from the surrounding crowd, but no one even called the police.
No, it would be useless for them to call the police at this point.
"Bang!"
Gunshots rang out at the street corner not far from the shattered corpses.
At that street corner, there was a special guard post, staffed by Church knights or armed soldiers dispatched by the Pale Church and the Human Federation Government, who were previously responsible for maintaining order in the face of the current high-pressure environment.
But at that moment, the Church knight, who used to stand properly at the outpost in his power armor, had just pulled the trigger of his explosive gun. The bullet pierced through the power armor helmet, causing his head to explode. The outpost was filled with splattered blood and brain tissue fragments.
As these two sounds rang out, the previously silent world seemed to suddenly come to life.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
"Ah!!!"
Accompanied by various sounds, such as gunshots, falling bodies, or other noises.
On top of that thousand-meter-tall building, a symbol of humanity's powerful infrastructure capabilities, one human body after another fell from the sky. In just a short time, more than a dozen people fell like dumplings.
The once rugged and imposing building and its wide avenues were soon littered with corpses. From each floor of the building, people were wailing in agony. With each wailing, a body would fall, crashing down and crushing vehicles and various streets and public facilities below.
A Vampire leaped from the building with a wailing cry. Although the special nature of his body meant he was not afraid of falling and getting injured, his body was exposed to sunlight after jumping out of the window. In a short moment, before his body even hit the ground, he turned into ashes along with his wailing cry.
Some so-called Elf wielded their Magic Power, controlling streetlights to fly up and pierce their own chests.
The most devout had already gathered downstairs, shouting slogans at the top of their lungs, and rushed toward the nearest Church, attempting to purge the demons who controlled the Church and wash away the injustice done to the Pale God.
Those who are not very devout are filled with inexplicable fear, cowering in their homes in trembling fear, utterly desperate.
Those who are devout yet trust the Church often imitate trapeze artists and engage in various crazy behaviors; suicides are common, and many go insane on the spot.
Even more extreme individuals poured gasoline or other highly flammable liquids on themselves, set themselves ablaze, and struggled and screamed in agony amidst the raging flames before finally dying.
Even more distrustful individuals, some of whom hid at home with gleaming eyes, launched frenzied online attacks against the Pale God and even the Pale Church.
Many others took to the streets, holding up protest banners, and gradually gathered together to hurl insults at the Pale God.
A scenario far more akin to the apocalypse than a so-called Aberration invasion is unfolding in various cities.
The streets were in chaos, order was broken, the internet was in disarray, and even the Church and the Human Federation Government were thrown into complete chaos.
Police officers gathered in droves and committed suicide by shooting themselves. The streets were littered with mangled corpses, and blood stained the pavement.
Shops on the street were stormed by hordes of crazed people who broke down their doors, looted, vandalized, and burned everything. Inside factories, huge machines were overturned and production lines were destroyed.
Even more outrageous individuals roam the streets, indiscriminately killing people and frantically releasing their inner pain or bestial desires. Occasionally, they are crushed to death by people falling from buildings as they run through the streets, turning into two patties of flesh.
Thankfully, modern city skyscrapers are often thousands of meters tall; otherwise, given the strength and physical capabilities of humans today, they might not actually die from falling from buildings tens or hundreds of meters high.
The Human Federation Human Federation, which has persisted in its struggle for over a thousand years, seems to have truly entered the apocalyptic tide today.
The Pale Church's statement shattered humanity's faith, moral compass, and last glimmer of hope.
The profound pain of being betrayed is truly unbearable.
He truly deserves the title of the King of Backstabbing in Garden of Eden.
