Chapter 789: Rewards
"Hey, the brothers are all here."
Gu Sanqiu floated over. It was a pure white space. It didn't look like a room specially set up for mental patients. Instead, it looked like a necessary place for inflicting some kind of torture.
By the way, the golden retriever and Albedo in front of him were in the same situation, about to be exposed, but not completely exposed.
Except for their heads, the rest of their bodies were blocked by a misty white light. If any girl who wanted Albedo 's body knew about this, she would definitely yell at him, "Holy Light, get out of here!"
"Yeah, we're all here, but this seems a little weird."
Kong waved his fist subconsciously: "I can't use elemental power, but my physical strength has not been weakened. Sanqiu, have you been to this space before?"
Kong hadn't said anything else. This space blocked the elemental force but not the physical body. It was impossible for them to have a passionate fight, and only the winner would get the reward.
Gu Sanqiu shook his head and then looked at Albedo.
"I haven't been here, but Albedo, you should have felt something. If I'm not mistaken, this so-called reward is actually similar to the wish experiment we did before."
"A prayer experiment? Actually, I prefer to call it a sacrifice."
Albedo nodded: "As long as you are sure that this is a good thing, it will be enough. After all, I don't want to be sent out as a sacrificial prize by a terrible existence."
If that's the case, then praying seems to be related to the power of time, just like the old man he faced when he was in Inazuma.
Creatures or even weapons that have left clear traces in this world may become items that appear after a prayer.
Gu Sanqiu thought about it and if he made a more accurate division, it would only represent a kind of "projection force" of corresponding existence.
Anyway, it is impossible that an old man would be drinking tea and listening to an opera, and when the exciting moment came, he would be brought here directly by Gu Sanqiu's prayer.
That would kill people, and it would be you who would die.
As for the items obtained through prayers, the principles behind them are still unclear.
At least from the information we have now, if you haven't done anything good to allow the big guy in the sky behind the scenes to change the data for you, what you pray for will be completely random.
If I leave enough traces in this world in the future, what exactly is the power of prayer formed by my projection?
A spear that keeps talking all day and all night, always coming up with strange ideas, tempting the person holding the weapon to do all kinds of stupid things?
Or is it a time shadow that uses a specific time as an anchor point like last time, specially for training?
My name is Gu Shen, and I am unrivaled in the world under the Demon God. Please transfer 10 million Moras to me from Liyue Bank and I will teach you the super martial arts inherited from the Demon God War period.
The style of painting seems to be moving further and further towards fraud and deception.
"I understand the logic, but is there something missing in our team?"
Albedo looked around: "Where's Dainsleb?"
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes and said, "You asked that big brother to come to a place like this? I'm afraid we need to prepare a funeral ceremony for him on the spot. I'm not good at this, but beating gongs and drums can make you feel a big happy event, believe it or not."
Albedo understood.
"Looking at how bitter and hostile he and the members of the Abyss Cult were, I forgot for a moment that he was also one of them. His logic was a bit confusing."
Dainsleb, besides being a riddle man himself, if one does not know his true identity, anyone would think that the members of the Abyss Cult killed his entire family.
Kong also looked around: "Where's Paimon? Why isn't she in the same place as us?"
"Mascots are technically considered a type of support, but they definitely can't contribute as much as a support should, you know what I mean."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "In short, the only ones who can accept the reward should be the three of us."
From a universal perspective, if Paimon couldn't enter this space, it would actually be a good thing.
Who knows if there will be any living creature after Paimon comes in, or even a set program that will hand over a note from an inexplicable place with someone else's large password written on it.
That’s it. From now on, the relationship between Golden Retriever and Paimon will change from a warm-hearted boy and a cute girl to a little boy and a mature lady.
The style of painting also became strange.
Just as the few people were talking, mysterious waves appeared in the pure white room, informing them of the information this time.
【See, door.】
"It's fine to use this method to convey information, but why is the answer still in the style of The Riddler? Can't we use some proper vernacular language?"
Gu Sanqiu wiped his face and said, "It can be seen that these two words are not used casually by the boss. It seems that we brothers can get a big boost."
"What we want to ask and what we want to get are different, so the so-called 'seeing' this time should also be..."
Before Albedo could finish his words, three rays of light descended from the sky and took them to a mysterious space full of unknowns.
Compared to the pure white just now, this space is extremely dark.
Without a companion to talk to and serve as a reference, even though his five senses were not deprived, Gu Sanqiu felt like he was trapped in a jar.
The key is that mental detection is prohibited here. If an ordinary person comes here, he will probably go crazy within a minute.
"Before you can see it, do you need to calm your fear ?"
Because from a personal perspective, the supreme being, regardless of the distinction between good and evil, is often so shocking that it can even cause boundless fear that makes people's hearts break.
Sure enough, after Gu Sanqiu calmed down his restlessness and anxiety, a "door" of normal size emitting white light appeared in front of him.
But isn't this door a bit abstract? He thought it was a regular item with a door panel that could be seen. In that case, he might be able to guess something from the style and pattern.
"Okay, abstract bonus tip, equally abstract door."
He almost wanted to punch it to test the stability of this space, even though he knew that such behavior would most likely result in him being repelled from the space.
But he hated the feeling of being out of control, his sense of security and desire for control were not satisfied at all.
But what exactly does this door mean?
【Come forward and see the door to truth. 】
Gu Sanqiu's heart trembled. The Door of Truth?
Is Saint Gu ecstatic?
But isn't this a bit too exaggerated? Is he allowed to ask about the throne? That should be impossible.
Hello, Gate of Truth, I would like to ask about the war between the First Throne and the Second Throne, and by the way, who won in the end.
It would be strange if I didn't die.
However, now that it has come to this, he can even know what others are asking.
Albedo's "perfection" will definitely make the golden retriever ask about the whereabouts of his sister. In comparison, Sora's question is indeed more dangerous.
"The Gate of Truth..."
Gu Sanqiu took a step forward, and after a moment of trance, he looked back and saw a slightly dazed body, and floating in the air was another self.
“It’s interesting, but also very subtle.”
