Chapter 71: Chapter 71: The ’Pillars’ of the Universe

Why are there only these two choices?

The King of Giant Gods’ reward—what a great opportunity—and yet this is all I get?

Yang Qizhou was speechless, but he could only accept it. The script only offered these two options. If he didn’t choose, the story wouldn’t progress, and the game would essentially be over.

"Anyone with even a shred of emotional intelligence would never pick ’two.’"

"To directly ask how ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ was imprisoned by the ’Lord of Night’—it’s basically like ripping open an old wound for a powerful figure. If you actually go ahead and ask that, your benefactor might instantly turn into your enemy, storm off, or worse, swat your game character dead on the spot."

"But then again, hehe..."

"I just love doing emotionally unintelligent things like this."

"What can I say? The ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune’ ability is just too overpowered. With an official cheat like this, I can afford to be this reckless."

Muttering under his breath, Yang Qizhou figured if the ’giant god’ flipped out, he’d just reload his save and make a different choice. Without hesitation, he picked ’two.’

The game text began refreshing.

...

"As an explorer, you’ve always been audacious. Although you were fully aware that asking how ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ was imprisoned by the ’Lord of Night’ would likely offend this major figure, you simply couldn’t suppress your curiosity and chose to directly ask."

"Lena looked at you in astonishment, unable to believe you’d be this bold."

"Even the Tree of Hunger swayed its trunk twice, as if to say, ’Human, your strength is utter trash and only worthy of becoming my fertilizer, but your head is undeniably rock-solid.’"

"Although you couldn’t see the expression of ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ you could still imagine just how awful it looked at that moment."

"You had already prepared yourself to be swatted to death." freewёbnoνel-com

"Suddenly, you heard ravings echo in your ears. The syllables were strange, unfamiliar in any language you knew, yet you were able to fully grasp their meaning."

"It was ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods.’ Despite being angered by your offensive behavior, he still answered your question as promised."

"That was from an age long past, at the dawn of creation. The ’Lord of Night’ and the ’giant gods’ had always been in opposition. However, due to a balance of power among the factions, neither side could do much to the other—until the end of the First Epoch, when a disaster occurred that caught every Old God and Ancient Dominator on the old earth completely off guard."

"To respond to the sudden catastrophe, the ’Lord of Night’ ascended to godhood, becoming one of the cosmic ’Pillars.’"

"As for the ’giant gods,’ during that same era of disasters, internal strife arose as a result of various unforeseen events. This created an opening, allowing the ’Lord of Night’ to act. And it was during this time that Okas himself was captured and imprisoned in the ’Night,’ enduring countless ages of confinement."

"While recounting this, ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ also sighed..."

"The ’Lord of Night’ is currently in a problematic state, not yet fully revived and unable to wield complete authority or manifest her full power. Otherwise, as a cosmic ’Pillar,’ she could have easily suppressed everything that happened last night, and I would have had no chance of escape."

...

...

Poking straight back to the dawn of creation—this timeline was truly ancient.

Yang Qizhou felt a significant ripple of excitement in his heart.

He had already suspected that the ’Lord of Night’ must be quite formidable, but he never imagined it would go this far—being one of the cosmic ’Pillars.’ The title alone was resounding enough.

Still, what kind of rank would this ’Pillar’ hold among divine beings?

"At the end of the First Epoch, a calamity took place on the old earth that caught both Old Gods and Ancient Dominators completely off guard. What could this refer to? Is it somehow connected to the ’Wizards’?"

"But no, that doesn’t make sense."

"According to Alice’s descriptions, the ’Wizards’ only arrived on this ancient land during the Third Epoch, bringing unimaginable disaster. The Wind Lord, Order Lord, and even the Lord of Night were likely all forced into slumber due to the shadow of the ’Wizards.’"

"The timelines don’t match..."

"In other words, the calamity that shocked the gods and Ancient Dominators of the old earth during the Second Epoch was not caused by Wizards, but by something else entirely."

"What could it be? It’s so intriguing!"

At the end of the First Epoch, a ’calamity’ occurred. The ’Lord of Night’ also ascended to godhood at that time, becoming a cosmic ’Pillar.’

’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ was likewise subsequently imprisoned.

The more Yang Qizhou analyzed, the more thrilled he became. From the wording of the script, he felt as though a vast, grand world was slowly unfolding before his eyes.

If not for the old earth being so eerie and terrifying, this epic could truly be considered breathtakingly magnificent.

Keep playing.

Keep playing.

...

...

"You felt delighted by this hidden information, as though a small glimpse of the mysterious and unknown old earth had been revealed to you."

"Your excitement didn’t last long, though, as you heard the ravings of ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods’ again. He said..."

"Human, the debt of gratitude for saving me has now been repaid. We owe each other nothing. However, I do not like the condition you raised. Do not appear before me again, or I might not be able to resist swatting you to death."

"You saw the venerable, ancient figure of ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ gradually fade away into the twilight hues."

"You saw that ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ soon vanished completely."

"You muttered under your breath... This guy’s angry. He’s definitely angry. The mighty ’King of Giant Gods’ seriously has zero tolerance. I was just curious about how the ’Lord of Night’ managed to seal him. Was there really any need to get this mad?"

Yang Qizhou felt a little numb.

The dark-hearted, iron-willed personality of the game character was something he truly enjoyed, but even he couldn’t help finding this scenario absurd.

Unveiling the scars of the mighty ’King of Giant Gods’—it was honestly already merciful enough that Okas hadn’t swatted him to death. Now he was actually complaining about this divine figure’s reaction.

But hey...

The sound of crows cawing echoed in his mind. A sly grin spread across Yang Qizhou’s face. "Annoyed a major boss? No worries. ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune,’ rewind for me?"

The text continued to refresh.

"You despicable, shameless, degenerate, vile explorer—you rely on your cheat powers to act with brazen impunity. Facing the storming departure of ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ you revealed a defiant smirk and used the ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune’ to return to the moment of your last choice."

"You opened your eyes."

"Once more, you saw the majestic figure hidden behind layers of twilight hues. He was expressing his gratitude to you and Lena and stated he could grant the two of you one request as a reward."

"Lena again chose to request that ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods’ grant his blessing to the Fire Stealing Village, just as in your previous timeline."

"You despicable explorer—’Okas, the King of Giant Gods’’ gaze now turned once more toward you."

"So, will you choose to explore divine secrets and ask ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods’ why he, possessing a power greater than the gods, is not himself a god?"

"Or will you tempt fate yet again, asking how ’Okas, the King of Giant Gods,’ was imprisoned by the ’Lord of Night’?"

"Make your choice."

"You chose ’one.’"

"Putting on a sincere expression, you asked... Great ’Okas, King of Giant Gods,’ you possess power vastly superior to that of gods, so why are you not one yourself?"
