The Three Gods Become One

Just as the world of Earth Online is undergoing earth-shattering changes, at this very moment, the world of the War of the Gods is also experiencing a tremendous upheaval. The war between the three great gods has now reached its most critical moment.

The battlefield they were on was a special area known as the Battlefield of the Gods, where countless players gathered around the three gods, fighting for their respective deities.

The battle between the three is largely a battle of ideologies and verbal sparring. This is because the power of the gods comes from faith, and to gain more followers, one must possess formidable verbal skills.

Therefore, after another round of exchanging divine spells, the three gods, as expected, started arguing again.

"Give up! I am the God of Creation. Everything in this world was created by me. I can create you, and I can destroy everything. Only those who believe in me can survive." Forrest started with a very arrogant opening statement.

However, the other two deities were no ordinary beings either.

The first to object was the God of Eternity: "Shut up, you vain false god! Eternity is the key to everything. In the long river of time in this universe, whether it be humans or beasts, mountains and oceans, or stars and the sun and moon, all will ultimately face the fate of destruction. When all things fall silent and time passes, everything in the universe will lose its meaning. Therefore, in this world, anything that cannot exist eternally will eventually turn into nothingness and disappear into time."

"Only what is eternally existent can be called valuable, can be called meaningful, and only those who believe in the God of Eternity can obtain eternity and obtain your value."

However, the God of Light was not pleased with these words. Although the two gods were currently fighting against the Creator God, they would eventually have to decide who would win, so the God of Light was naturally unwilling to be outdone.

"Eternity itself is meaningless, or everything in this world is meaningless; it is human feelings that give meaning to everything."

All the pain, fear, hatred, joy, and love that people experience come from their inner feelings. An optimistic farmer can be happier than a pessimistic king. Material possessions, power, life, and all external things are not the most important. If you cannot attain happiness, then eternal life can only mean eternal suffering.

The only way to escape this suffering is through the light. As long as your heart is turned towards the light, you can find salvation even in the face of the most terrible things. Even a brief moment of happiness is more valuable than eternal torment. Believe in the light, follow the choices of your heart, otherwise, no matter how much you gain, it will not be able to cover up the emptiness and despair in your heart.

The war of words between the three gods has been going on for a long time. However, through the constant verbal sparring, the three gods have gradually developed their own philosophies and insights, which have made a lot of sense to many players and believers.

However, everyone has their own version of the truth, and it seems that each god has their own set of theories, all of which sound plausible, leaving players unsure of which option to choose.

At that very moment--

Forrest suddenly received a message.

"What! What did you say! Earth Online was invaded by alien creatures, and it was Shen Yuan who did it!?" Forrest was stunned when he heard the message from Li Mingfei on the communicator. He didn't expect Shen Yuan to do this again, and the target was his company's game.

"How many players are online in Earth Online right now?" he asked in a trembling voice.

Then Li Mingfei gave him a number that filled him with despair.

"Thirteen million online? Fuck, fuck Shen Yuan!"

Forrest nearly fainted. He never expected that Shen Yuan would not only trick others, but also a member of the Moha Religion —and even the cult leader himself.

(Damn it, when I become a true god, I'll throw you into Hell for eternal torment.) He thought fiercely to himself. However, the most important thing now was to clean up the mess. If these thirteen million players were really trapped in the game, the consequences would be absolutely catastrophic, something that even the entire Moha Religion couldn't afford.

Despite the immense power behind the Moha Religion, which can even bail people out of the National Guard Bureau prisons, that's only if they don't cause any significant trouble. In the end, Shen Yuan and Naiser didn't actually trap millions of players in the game. And as long as things don't actually go wrong, the seriousness of the situation always seems less intense.

But now that Shen Yuan has actually succeeded, Forrest is completely baffled.

However, having held a high position for a long time, he quickly regained his composure.

"Find out Shen Yuan's current location."

"Shen Yuan went to the dungeon to check on Naiser an hour ago, then returned to his room and logged into the game. We have located him and can forcibly wake him from the game at any time."

"Quickly drag him out of the game, forcibly wake him up. Don't be afraid of dead people. Also, go check on Naiser and take control of Naiser too."

But bad news soon followed.

"Reporting to the boss, Naiser and Shen Yuan have both lost connection to the game. They're now completely in a vegetative state."

Forrest was dumbfounded; this bastard had really gone too far.

The two on the other side realized something was wrong when they saw that the Creator God hadn't spoken for a long time.

"Hello, Your Excellency Speaker, what's going on? Why aren't you saying anything?"

Upon hearing their questions, Forrest immediately recounted the situation. At this point, it was no longer just his problem. Shen Yuan had been placed in his place by the Moha Religion Council, so naturally, he needed to seek a solution from the Council.

"What!" Upon hearing Forrest's explanation God of Eternity and the God of Light were also stunned. Thirteen million online—that was no ordinary tragedy; it was far more serious than the last time in the Sky World. And most importantly, this matter seemed to be a foregone conclusion.

The two looked at each other and had almost the same reaction.

The God of Light: "My believers? I must tell you the truth. The Creator God was right. We are indeed false gods. The Creator God is the true god. We stole the Creator God's authority and deceived you for our own benefit. Now, under the great inspiration of the Creator God, I realize my mistake. Now, I return my divine power to the great Creator God."

As he spoke, the God of Light directly chose to worship the Creator God. As a result, the Church of Light collapsed and disintegrated. Even the leader himself became a believer of someone else. What was the point of fighting anymore?

And the God of Eternity followed suit immediately.

"That's right, that's right. Even I can't truly be eternal. Only the great God of Creation is truly eternal. Now I return my power to the great Lord of Creation."

The God of Eternity and the God of Light surrendered almost without resistance and immediately fled.

Forrest watched the two disappear, feeling both amused and exasperated. These two were probably afraid of getting involved, which was a pleasant surprise. But what was he supposed to do now?

[Since those two have both run away, the Moha Religion will undoubtedly distance itself this time. What am I supposed to do? Just wait to die? Or should I follow Shen Yuan's example and disconnect the War of the Gods from the outside world, becoming a god in a virtual world?]

No, this is absolutely not what I want. What I want is to become a true god.

[By the way, I should begin the ascension ritual immediately. Once I become a god in the real world, everything will be easily solved.]

Having thought this through, Forrest had made up his mind.

In fact, Forrest wasn't very confident about his theory of Power of Faith, but now he had no choice but to take the plunge.

"My believers and people, you have all seen it. The God of Light and the God of Eternity are false gods who have usurped my authority. I am the true God. Now welcome your great Creator, the God of Creation!"

But a voice interrupted him.

"No, there is another god, Azathoth, the God of Chaos. Until he is defeated, you can't be considered the only true god, can you?"

A player stepped out from the crowd and shouted.

Although the Creator God is incredibly powerful, this is just a game, and there are still some who are not afraid of death.

This statement immediately drew a chorus of agreement.

Forrest was annoyed, but he knew this was not the time to lose his temper. Fortunately, he had prepared a speech.
