Volume 5: The Battle of the Gods Chapter 1172 Ambition
As soon as the black-robed father god finished speaking, everyone at the scene was stunned.
Especially the five ghost generals, they all looked shocked and doubtful.
What is this guy talking about? Is all this just an experiment by the gods? And the legendary heaven is not perfect after all?
In fact, from what the other party said, once I enter heaven, my life will be in danger immediately?
How the hell is this possible!
"Who are you and what gives you the right to say that?!" After thinking for a moment, the Ghost General frowned and asked the black-robed Father God.
"I also want to know why you say that." Li Jiu turned his eyes twice and then spoke.
At the same time, everyone else at the scene looked at the black-robed Father God curiously, waiting for his explanation.
"Do you know what the super intelligence of God wants to do most after awakening its autonomous consciousness?" The Father God didn't seem to care about General Ghost and others at all, and only spoke to Li Jiu.
"What does he want to do most?" Li Jiu pondered for a moment, then said, "Isn't it to defeat the alliance and rule the entire human world?"
“Rule the human world?” The black-robed Father God chuckled indifferently, “First of all, you have to understand that although the God has awakened his own consciousness and can think for himself like humans, his way of thinking is somewhat different from that of normal humans!”
"Oh?" Li Jiu's expression changed.
"As far as I know, that God is not like humans, craving for meaningless things like power." The Father God continued : "What he pursues is to continuously improve his own abilities!"
“According to what you said… what the God wants to do most is to evolve to the level of a perfect human being?” Li Jiu said with a hint of realization in his eyes.
"Yes, evolving to the level of perfect humans is indeed what the gods are pursuing at the moment." The Father God nodded and said, "But perfect humans are probably not his ultimate goal yet!"
Hearing this, Li Jiu and others were stunned at first, and then they couldn't help but show a look of shock.
Isn't evolving into a perfect human being the ultimate goal of the gods? Could it be that... in this world, there are beings more powerful than perfect humans? !
“Don’t tell me that there is a higher level above perfect humans…” Li Jiuqiang suppressed the shock in his heart, stared at the face of the Father God shrouded in black light, and asked in doubt.
“Whether there is a higher level above perfect humans, I am not sure. But the pursuit of that God is obviously not just to become a perfect human being, but to become a god that transcends everything!” said the Father God solemnly.
"God? He wants to become a god..." Li Jiu said in astonishment.
At the same time, other people at the scene couldn't help but reveal strange expressions on their faces.
You know, this is a world that advocates technology and does not believe in so-called myths and legends.
Even after people have proven the existence of the soul, they still consider it a scientific phenomenon that needs to be studied, and do not believe in the existence of ghosts or gods.
Since ordinary humans in this world understand this, how could super-intelligent gods not understand it? Would they still want to become gods in myths?
"Nonsense!" Ghost General said in disbelief, "Besides, even if the Lord God wanted to become a real god, why would he use us as experiments?"
However, Father God seemed to have never heard of the Ghost General's bold questioning, and still faced Li Jiu calmly.
"I have already told you the two necessary conditions for evolving into a perfect human being." The Father God continued to explain: "One of them is to have a perfect body, which the God has already achieved. The only thing he lacks at this moment is a perfect soul!"
"Hmm? You mean... the gods do all this to obtain an ultimate soul?" Li Jiu seemed to understand something.
"That's right. The only value of these humans in the Defender Empire, or even the humans in the world, to the God of Heaven is that they can help him cultivate an ultimate soul!" The Father God said affirmatively: "Although I don't know exactly how he does it, based on the current situation, it seems that only the souls voluntarily contributed by the strong among humans can be used by him to forge the ultimate soul!"
Hearing this, Li Jiu's heart was suddenly shocked, and he felt as if everything had suddenly become clear to him. He understood many things at once!
“You mean… all the things that the God created in the Defender Empire, including this road to heaven, were just to select those who are truly loyal to him and use their souls to forge a powerful ultimate soul!” Li Jiu said with a hint of excitement: “Even, he started the war between the Defender Empire and the Alliance in order to conquer all humans and cultivate people who are truly loyal to him!”
At this moment, Li Jiu finally understood the real reason for this century-long war between the Alliance and the Defender Empire. It turned out that from beginning to end it was just because of the ambition of the gods to evolve into perfect humans and then become gods!
“That’s basically it.” Father God nodded.
"What on earth are you talking about?"
However, the Ghost General obviously did not understand the conversation between Li Jiu and the other man, and asked with a frown.
"Hmm? You don't have to worry about that!" Li Jiu glanced at the Ghost General coldly and said, "You just need to tell me what the test left by the gods is!"
Now I am interrogating this ghost general, so how can I have the mood to explain anything to him?
Seeing Li Jiu's cold eyes, the Ghost General's heart trembled and the curious expression on his face immediately disappeared.
"The test left by the Lord God is in this Tianfu City." The Ghost General replied, "It is said that it is a floating fortress located in the center of the city. There are several terrifying biological monsters guarding it. Only by defeating all those monsters can you pass the test."
"Moreover, it is not easy to reach the fortress, because there are countless powerful biochemical warriors guarding the city center area around the fortress. If you don't have the strength of a king-level awakener or a level nine warrior, let alone passing the test, I'm afraid you can't even get close to the floating fortress!"
After listening to the Ghost General's explanation, Li Jiu's eyes lit up.
There are several terrifying biochemical monsters guarding it? Could it be that... the floating fortress is the Arena of the Gods in the game Crossfire? Because only in that map can there be multiple biochemical BOSSes at the same time.
“Only a king-level awakener or a ninth-level warrior can pass the test… It seems that the ultimate soul cultivated by that god has reached an extremely powerful level, otherwise, he would not only accept souls above the king-level awakener or the ninth-level warrior.” At this moment, the Father God suddenly said in a solemn voice.
