C285 – The Final Truth

When the people in the palace saw the two of them, they did not stop them. Perhaps they had received Magic Goddess’s orders. Some of the officials looked solemnly at Lo Ya’s Small that was slowly moving on the ground. No one knew what they were thinking.

This road was a bit long. Along the way, there was actually a transmission array that was a cross-era thing. According to Lo Ya’s information, all of the overly advanced technology was obtained by the Empire through excavating ancient ruins. So this thing might be a technology left behind by some prehistoric civilization or outer space civilization.

After three teleportations, they arrived at the top of the thousand-meter tall tower.

In the mysterious hall within a hundred meter radius, a woman in a white dress had her back facing the two of them, looking at the Holy City that had been destroyed by more than half, not saying a word.

After a long silence, Crystal Dragon God suddenly opened her mouth and said, “I am not looking forward to this day. Why are we gods? Who created us? This question should be answered today.”

Behind the woman, a huge platform slowly rose up.

It was a black round board with a diameter of more than ten meters. Many human-shaped chess pieces stood on the square filled with liquid. They were like giants in the sea, emitting invisible pressure.

“Divine attribute.”

Lo Ya could feel the aura within.

These simple chess pieces actually emitted a dense divine pressure that made Lo Ya tremble.

“Humans have already failed. Do you think that this small race you found can help us answer our questions?”

Magic Goddess turned her body and Lo Ya immediately blinked her eyes.

Another big beauty ah. Are all gods so beautiful?

Just at this time, the door behind them sounded again and two men and a woman appeared at the door.

There was no need to talk about the men. They were all extremely handsome. The last woman had long wavy green hair and her hands were wrapped with green vines. She was actually even more beautiful than Crystal Dragon God and Magic Goddess.

“This is too much.” Lo Ya realized that these were all Gods.

Then who were the two men?

“The Goddess of Nature, Magic Goddess, the Dragon God, the God of Game. The God of Referees, after so many years, has finally reunited again.” The man calmly walked past Lo Ya and reached out his hand to touch her head. Then he walked around the chessboard and said, “If we fail this time, it means that there will be another God among us.”

“What if we succeed?” Crystal Dragon God raised her chin.

“The probability is too low. I would rather hide under the ground and sleep.” The man curled his lips. “Let’s begin. I’ll be the witness.”

“Another great extinction.” Magic Goddess also sighed.

“What… What Great Extinction?”

Lo Ya was at a loss.

These gods were talking like ordinary friends, but their words had revealed a lot of information.

If they succeeded, they would be able to solve the mystery of their origins. If he failed, it meant that he had one more god.

Alright, what did that mean?

Was it chess?

“Lo Ya.” The one who spoke this time was the Goddess of Nature. “Do you see the chessboard in front of you? If you want to play here, use the dice that the Dragon God gave you.”

“Oh, this one?”

With a thought, Lo Ya took out the thing from the item space. In the end, she found that the radiance on it had already disappeared, which means… she could throw it.

“Hey, do you know how to fold space? It is really interesting.” The referee let out a soft exclamation.

“Alright, let’s not worry about that. Let’s wait for the Nature Goddess to speak.” Magic Goddess was expressionless.

The Goddess of Nature nodded. “As you can see, this is a game of chess, but it might be different from any game you know. Because inside… I need you to solve some mysteries.”

As she spoke, she picked Lo Ya up and slowly walked to the edge of the round table. “Every chess piece here represents a world.”

“A world?”

“It is the continent under our feet.” Crystal Dragon God explained, “That is to say, when you roll the dice, you do not control the chess pieces on the board, but the continent that carries countless lives.”

She deliberately picked up a mage chess piece with a magic staff in her hand. “This is the world you are in, this continent is at the top of the magic staff. Have you ever seen a giant pillar that connects to the side? It’s actually just an arm.”

“Wow!” Lo Ya was stunned.

Who made such a thing? Why did they play chess?

“If we lose this game, it might lead to the destruction of a world. And you become the next god. But if we win, we will get the answer. Leave. This sealed land.” When Crystal Dragon God said this, she kissed Lo Ya, “Don’t think that Gods are good. The races that fail will lose the protection of the world. The first celestial race. They are already extinct. The second elf race was in a bad situation. There was also the dragon race, as well as Magic Goddess’s race, the human race… Now, because of you, humans have lost their protection.”

“What about the God of the Game?” Lo Ya looked at the silent man.

“He doesn’t support this game. He wants to maintain his current condition. Strictly speaking, he is the first, but the moment he decided to give up, he lost most of his divine power.”

“There’s an unknown existence controlling everything for us.” The God of the Game sighed helplessly.

“If I fail, I will become a god, and the Insect Girl Clan will lose its protection?” Lo Ya rolled up her tail anxiously.

She had been working so hard for Little Insect Girl and the others.

“Yes, you failed. It means that a new race will be blessed with luck. They may live for tens of thousands of years. After hundreds of thousands, they will be like Insect Girl. They will sweep across the continent and come to your territory to play the same game. As a God, you could only make your race work hard to stop all of this. And you’re destined to fail, which is what I meant by losing protection.”

“Humans, because they lost protection, that’s why they’re facing my attack?” Lo Ya seemed to have understood something, but she also felt that it was strange. If she did not attack… If she did not participate in the game, or if she personally stopped everything after becoming a god… Wouldn’t that be fine?

Moreover, from the moment he was born until now, he had only spent over forty years (from the era of the white worm to today). How could there be tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years?

“Wu, it’s a bit hard to believe. Why did this type of situation occur?” Lo Ya was very suspicious. This chess game’s so-called success, was it not the road of no return?

“We also want to know.” Crystal Dragon God smiled and said, “Insect Girl Clan has the greatest potential in so many years. Compared to us, you are like a true god.”

These words made Lo Ya a little embarrassed and her face was slightly red.

But when her eyes fell on the chessboard, she felt the pressure.

She couldn’t imagine how the Insect Girl Clan would face an even more terrifying race in the future.

“What do I have to do to win? Do you have any hints?”

Everyone shook their heads.

“As long as we win, that’s enough. Relax and just treat it as a game… Although it’s a little child’s play, it’s really just a game.” Crystal Dragon God said.
