A series of prompt boxes pop up on the panel.
Although Chen Lun was surprised, he just glanced at it briefly and did not choose to take a closer look at this time.
He stared at Philip Howard's body, which had completely turned into white crystals and then shattered with a loud bang. Countless sparkling specks of dust scattered everywhere.
In this starry sky environment, it looks particularly gorgeous.
All that was left was an ordinary cowhide notebook and the rusty black cane.
That is His legacy and weapon.
Oscar, the man in the black hat, walked over, bent down to pick up the notebook and the black cane, then casually inserted the emerald green bookmark and the pitch-black bookmark into the notebook, turned around and handed them all over.
Chen Lun was stunned at first.
When he looked up, he saw a face that shocked him.
"Alex?!"
The other party smiled and took off his black hat, revealing his handsome face. However, his eyes were no longer as lively as before, but extremely calm. A silver circle appeared in the center of his eyes.
"Alex is just a fictional character I created. My real body is not mobile , so I can only borrow his body to come here... Fortunately, this is the dream world, so it is not difficult to get in."
Oscar said so.
He looked at Chen Lun who was still in a daze, and pointed to the thing in his hand with a smile.
"This is yours, take it."
Chen Lun finally realized what was happening, and after he quickly took the notebook and the cane, his mind was still a little confused. He had not expected that Alex would have such a close connection with His Majesty Oscar, the Serpent of Fate.
It's no wonder that he always felt that Alex was not simple and was hiding a big secret, but at the same time, there was no clue.
'Fictional character...'
Chen Lun murmured in his heart.
He heard this word again, but he still couldn't understand it.
"This is the ability of Destiny Path Sequence 2 [Anonymous], which can fabricate a non-existent destiny out of thin air, thus turning the virtual into the real."
Oscar seemed to see through his confusion, and answered his questions as if he knew how to read his mind when they first met.
Chen Lun took a deep breath and nodded suddenly.
Immediately, he quietly began to [multitask], using the "Skull of Enlightenment" to think about many meaningless things in his mind at the same time, thereby disrupting most of his thoughts and leaving only a small space of rationality to hide his real thoughts.
The reason why he did this was because he himself possessed the skill of [Mind Stealing], and he could easily deduce that His Majesty Oscar, as the Angel of Destiny, was probably much better than himself in reading minds.
No one wants their thoughts to be read by someone, even a non-hostile angel.
Although Chen Lun did not show any abnormality on the surface, Oscar suddenly raised his eyebrows, as if he had noticed his little movements.
Then, Oscar chuckled.
"Don't be so nervous, Jack. In fact, even I can't see too much of your thoughts..."
There seemed to be a hint of depression in his tone.
But even though He said so, Chen Lun just smiled politely and said nothing. Oscar seemed to be trying to hide his embarrassment, coughed, pointed at the black hat in his hand, and praised:
"That's a nice hat you have. I wear it all the time."
"As long as you like it, I have a lot more here."
Chen Lun waved his hand and a pile of black hats appeared. There seemed to be more than a dozen of them, all of the same brand new and high-end style. Then, he held it in both hands and handed it over. He was very graceful and impeccable.
"Um, thank you..."
Oscar took the stack of black hats and his mouth twitched.
Chen Lun then saluted Him and Maggie with his hands on his chest, and asked in a deep voice:
"Your Excellency... I have a question."
Maggie was in a daze, looking a little absent-minded, while Oscar put away his hat, nodded, and said:
"Go ahead Jack."
"What if I lose this fateful battle?"
Chen Lun raised his eyes and looked at Oscar seriously.
The other party shrugged.
"If you lose, Philip Howard will fail due to an extremely coincidental accident at the last moment before his promotion..."
Chen Lun's pupils shrank.
Oscar looked at the colorful lighthouse inside the high wall in the distance and continued:
"Then one day soon, He will be completely dragged to the 'Cosmic Lighthouse' and become the vessel for the evil of Huan Gong. He will find and kill the remnant of Ni Weng hiding inside, and completely wipe out all of its existence."
"this……"
Chen Lun opened his mouth slightly, full of questions for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"This is his destiny, and also the backup plan before Duke Huan's death..."
Oscar's eyes became serious.
He slowly turned his gaze back to Chen Lun and said in a deep voice:
"You should have known about some of the great deeds that Lord Huan had done... In the Fourth Era, he used the power of chaos and killing of the old man buried in the bones to stir up civil strife in the Starry Sky Cult, causing the Anita civilization to split into three major families of the Sun, Moon and Star, known in history as the 'Age of Pearls'... and afterwards, he designed to wipe out the out-of-control God of Death."
Chen Lun frowned and nodded.
Oscar paused for a moment, then continued:
“But what He did was far more than that… After killing the old man who buried bones, Duke Huan also took advantage of the turmoil in the Netherworld to personally injure Madam Qiangwei, and used up most of his power to divine the historical thread of the old man Ni hiding, and told his good friend Mr. Jingyao about it, so that He and his angels could hunt him down… These events sounded extremely short, but in fact they lasted for tens of thousands of years. The world has changed drastically. Although the Starry Sky God Cult has split, the belief in the three gods of the sun, moon and stars has long been spread. Duke Huan consumed too much power, most of his anchor points were destroyed, and he had no reason to replenish them, so he eventually fell… But before that, He even went to the Far East to seal the Eternal Sleeper.”
Chen Lun couldn't help but take a deep breath as he listened to Oscar's story.
He knew that Huan Gong was very strong...
But is this too strong?
Almost single-handedly fought against the Seven Gods? !
"Your Majesty Oscar, Lord Huan...why did He do this?"
Chen Lun asked the biggest question.
"I'm sorry, even I don't know the real purpose of Lord Huan... I have speculated before, maybe it's hatred? Or maybe it's a dispute of faith? But now it seems that these are meaningless..."
Oscar shook his head.
Chen Lun fell silent.
Although Duke Huan's true purpose is unknown, he seems to have a strong desire to kill the seven gods other than nature and magic... At the same time, he understood why Philip was bewitched by his "teacher" Clave and trapped in the dream world... Because Philip was destined to be Duke Huan's backup from the beginning, in order to fulfill his destiny of killing the remnant of Ni Weng.
"Now, do I think I have disrupted Lord Huan's arrangement?"
Chen Lun asked again.
Oscar stared at him and was silent for a few seconds.
"Not really... because this is just one of the many paths that fate could take."
"What's the meaning?"
Chen Lun's expression changed slightly.
He immediately thought, could it be that he, like Philip, was also a part of Queen Huan's hands?
"You misunderstood, Jack."
Oscar raised his hand to explain.
"What I mean is that this is a situation that Lord Huan had anticipated... So He once told me that when this ring of fate is broken, then the person who breaks it, that is, you, will be qualified to know all of this, and will also have the opportunity to choose."
"What chance?"
Chen Lun asked in a deep voice.
"Should He complete His unfinished work..."
Oscar's eyes turned cold.
"Kill the Seven Gods!"
“?!”
Chen Lun couldn't help but hold his breath.
His mind went blank in an instant. What kind of question was this that would kill him?
"Since this is a choice given to you, you naturally have the right to refuse it... Of course, if you accept it, everything that Duke Huan left behind will be yours, including my support... If you have the ambition to become a god, this is an inevitable path, because the Seven Gods will never sit idly by and watch a new god appear on the Path of Destiny! They will try every means to stop you, even kill you!"
Oscar said grimly.
Chen Lun felt that he seemed to have come to a crucial fork in the road. Any choice would lead to a completely different future.
He suppressed the strong emotions in his heart.
His expression changed several times, and when he was about to speak, Oscar stopped him.
"Don't be so hasty to make a decision, Jack. You still have plenty of time to think about it... If you ever think clearly, you can come to me in Alex's dream."
Oscar said slowly.
Chen Lun looked at Him for a while, then uttered the word "good".
…
…
…
In front of the "Sleeping Gate" leading to the dream world.
Two pretty and mysterious figures, one tall and one short, stood there.
They were wearing dark green and dark red pleated long skirts respectively.
"Why should I let them in, Judelia?"
The lady in the dark green dress sighed and said.
The girl in the dark red dress with beautifully tied twin ponytails chuckled and replied :
"Dominia, the afterimage of the old man is hiding in the deepest place. No one wants to come here to provoke him... It's better to make the situation more chaotic. Maybe we can kill the old guy."
"Heh... you think too simply. Even if the Earth God has lost most of his power, this afterimage is his foundation. It is not so easy to deal with... 'Rope of the Curtain' is not just a simple honorific name. Maybe he still has some unknown power hidden in some historical line, waiting for the foolish guy to take the bait..."
Ms. Sigh sneered.
"It's just an attempt. We won't lose anything anyway."
Ms. Dull's tone was casual.
Seeing this, Ms. Sigh said nothing more, shook her head and disappeared on the spot.
The gloomy lady who was left behind looked into the door of sleep, her gaze seemed to pass through the endless space and look into the depths of the dream world.
He murmured in his heart:
"After thousands of years, you have come here, brother."
