194: Alliance takes action, the sanctuary opens (2)

"Yes, eternity!"

Carl replied calmly.

"The body I currently possess in reality, its purpose... is merely a shell for my soul to reside in temporarily. To me, it is almost meaningless."

eternity!!!

Who hasn't thought about it?

You could say an ordinary person hasn't thought about it, but you definitely couldn't say that about any wealthy person.

After a person has money and power.

The first thing they think about.

Is how to make their money, power, and life... reach the eternal!

Among them.

The hardest, and also the most desired.

Is life!

"You... how did you achieve this?" Ex abandoned all his dignity in that moment. If kneeling and begging could grant him eternity, he wouldn't hesitate at all, not even for a second.

"It's simple, become a demigod." What Carl said sounded like a total flex, purely intended to mock, but...

Ex knew him; he knew that he would never actively mock anyone, even if his words were full of mockery.

"A demigod..."

"I am a Servant of Light. According to the calculations of the AI large model, this rank of profession should be a demigod, second only to the Seraph, right?"

Carl replied.

"Yes, that is the position of a demigod, but there were no vacancies before."

"holy radiance is an extremely powerful deity. There are no vacancies for angels by His side, and there is only one position for a demigod. However, you arrived a step too late, so you didn't get it."

Thump!

Ex's eyes flashed as he recalled the previous System Announcement: "A Seraph? Was he really a Seraph of holy radiance?!"

"Yes."

Carl affirmed: "He is one of us. He originally aimed for the angel position, but there were no spots, so he only obtained the demigod position. Therefore, he is also the weakest among us."

The... weakest?

A demigod is the weakest among you?

Ex felt like he had gone crazy. He turned around, grabbed handfuls of ice from the ice bucket, and slapped them onto his face: "Wake up, stop dreaming! No one in this world can be stronger than the Demon Lord...!!!"

Carl waited a moment before continuing: "The Demon Lord is a bit hard to kill. After all, he possesses one of the most special authorities in the eternal: time and space."

"Of course, if we really wanted to kill him, we could still do it. It's just that he's still useful for now."

Ex, under the stimulation of the ice, confirmed he wasn't dreaming. He turned around and asked: "What exactly are you trying to do?"

"If you can kill the Demon Lord, then go kill him! Go now! What are you waiting for?"

The corners of Carl's mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to smile, but the smile he produced was truly fake...

"What we want is to replace the gods and become the eternal deities of the entire universe, the infinite worlds, and all the stars!"

Ex was terrified and even subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Carl: "No need to look. I have blocked all light; holy radiance cannot hear our conversation."

Hiss!

FxxK!

Ex blurted out: "You really want to become a god?"

"Yes."

Carl continued: "You have an opportunity now as well. Your talent, your aptitude, and the position you are in are perfect to replace the Seraph."

Ex seemed to understand.

"The positions of the gods are limited, and the same goes for angels and demigods. So... only when the Seraph dies will a position open up, and only then will it be my turn?"

"But why didn't the Lord of the Sacred Light say anything?"

"Ah~"

"So it turns out I'm just too useless. Goodbye!"

Thinking of this, Ex directly showed him the door.

Carl: "Your failure will indeed lower your evaluation with the Lord of the Sacred Light, but with us here, that evaluation won't affect your ascension. As long as you agree, we can arrange it for you immediately."

"Agree to what?" Ex didn't know what the cost was yet: "What do I need to pay in this deal?"

Carl: "Become one of us. For the noble vision of the Alliance of Gods, become an eternal deity of the entire universe, the infinite worlds, and all the stars!"

"Members of the Alliance cannot attack each other for any reason."

"And you cannot reveal our existence in any way. All secret conversations must take place in an environment where the gods cannot watch or eavesdrop."

"Our goals are aligned."

"Our vision is noble."

"Therefore, you need to put aside your thoughts of revenge against the Demon Lord. At least, for now, don't go looking for trouble with him in the eternal."

"Of course."

"After you become a true demigod, you can incite holy radiance to go cause him trouble. That is our subsequent plan."

Ex felt a hint of danger.

"You've told me such secret things; if I don't agree, then the outcome..."

Carl: "From a logical analysis, you have no reason not to agree, unless you are like the Demon Lord—a madman with no rationality, only emotion."

Ha, hahahahaha!

Good~

Ex laughed wildly: "Just for that, I agree! Let's start! I can't wait to know what kind of existence a true demigod is!"

Carl: "A demigod of holy radiance is the embodiment of light. Logically, as long as the light is not extinguished, one will not die. We sent the Seraph to negotiate with the Demon Lord; there shouldn't have been any accidents."

"But I didn't expect the Demon Lord's rationality value to be nearly zero. He is a madman."

"Therefore, in the Forgotten Land where that space-time fragment is located, the Demon Lord used his strongest skill, which can completely erase his soul."

"Remember."

"After you become a demigod, you will be immortal. Especially as a demigod of holy radiance, this is especially true."

"The only thing you need to remember is not to enter the Forgotten Land; otherwise, even the Lord of the Sacred Light cannot save you."

"Anywhere else?"

"The Demon Lord cannot kill you. At least for now, he has no way to destroy a divine kingdom, so you don't need to worry."

Ex still couldn't help but ask: "Does that mean... even if I become a demigod, I can't beat him?"

"You forgot, he just killed a demigod..." Carl could truly see that he had drunk too much alcohol now. He reached out and grabbed Ex by the collar. In an instant, streaks of silver radiance penetrated deep into Ex's body.

Those were countless nano-mechanical insects.

In an instant.

Ex sobered up, and his entire state returned to its peak.

"Remember, don't talk nonsense. We will naturally help you handle the Lord of the Sacred Light. Log on." After Carl's final warning, he turned into countless nano-insects in the office and disappeared completely.

The light returned.

Ex logged on.

Waiting for him was a beam of golden radiance descending from the divine kingdom.

"Alliance of Gods, here I come!"

...

One day later.

After hearing the announcement, the entire eternity went almost completely crazy.
