Chapter 688: The Similarity Between The Highest God And Rabbit

[Pygmalion Choker] had cooled down.

There was also a similarly huge metal wall that was riddled with rows of holes in the sky above the Olympics. It was just that it was not connected to a “hall” like the one in the Salvation of God. Wrapped in a powerful air thrust, Lin Sanjiu and her two friends were thrown into the deep blue cosmos as if three bullets. When they landed, their momentum came to a sudden halt, and they floated about in the deep space.

At long last, they finally returned to this place where all of them had been longing for.

Still, the starry sky was filled with layers upon layers of white cords that flickered with a silvery brilliance. Together, they intertwined to form a meshwork of intricate patterns that cut up the entire space into many segments.

All of them returned to their human form. They looked at each other, but none of them spoke.

The glitter encircling Puppeteer’s eyes turned darker and darker, looking like two patches of dried blood. A heavy dark fog descended and crowded around his ectomorph body as a hostile expression crawled up to his face. Lin Sanjiu and Soulsqn quickly averted their eyes away from him. The horrible gaping wound that crossed half of his body was startling, with overturned flesh and patches of dried blood lined around the edge.

“Where is that freak?”

The way the flesh worm twisted her body around to check their surroundings was a scene that one could only find in those horror movies. She looked like a blob of flesh made up of countless stripe of muscles. Lin Sanjiu felt that she should go and find the Veda to give her a whole new look instead of looking for a full pack of the reproductive system.

“Remember,” before they split up to look for the highest god, Lin Sanjiu reminded them again, “You must avoid those white cord at all cost. Those are the channel the Veda used to transmit their information and move around. The instant we stepped into it, they would know we are here, so better watch your step.”

Generally, whenever she was giving some advice or tell them what they should do and what they should not, Puppeteer was always the first one to get annoyed. However, this time, he said nothing at all, which surprised Lin Sanjiu greatly. He turned around and walked away.

After roaming aimlessly around the void for a while, Lin Sanjiu stopped. She peered into the endless layers of white cords ahead, her jaw was set tight and her brows creased. She suddenly had a brainwave. As there was nothing to obstruct their line of vision in the Data Stream Library, she found that there was no need for them to wander around to look for the highest god. All they had to do was turn their heads around and they would get a panoramic view of the entire space. Be that as it may, there wasn’t any sign of the highest god. While Lin Sanjiu was wondering where was the young deity, Soulsqn’s voice appeared in her mind, “There is nothing here that he could use to hide. He must have gotten away.”

‘Could it be we’re too late and the highest god has gone into those white cord?’

It that really happened, then they were in huge trouble. Once the highest god successfully met up with the Veda, he would surely lead the Veda to them and it would only a matter of time before they were caught.

“Why don’t we seize the chance and return to the Salvation of God?” Soulsqn asked as she slithered closer to Lin Sanjiu, “Why must we mess around with the Veda? Isn’t that the most important thing for us to do right now is going back to the Salvation of God as soon as possible?”

Like Lin Sanjiu, who was worried sick about the cat doctor and Hu Changzai, Soulsqn was concerned about the wellbeing of her clansmen.

“You can leave if you want,” Puppeteer said without turning his head, “After all, when the fight begins, you two will just be in my way.”

The only one amongst them who had no attachment to anything was Puppeteer.

The flesh worm froze. She did not know that the Veda had made Puppeteer go through his days at Mistral again. Hence, when she was about to say something, Puppeteer interjected, his words cutting into her flesh like an icy blade, “I will blow this place up, or I will die here. Either way, there is nothing you could do to stop me. Get lost now, before I change my mind.”

Lin Sanjiu and Soulsqn exchanged glances.

“Since Lord Puppeteer had said so,” a big, fleshy red tendril extruded from the flesh worm’s massive trunk and she waved it, “Then I’ll gladly take the…”

Nevertheless, before the flesh worm could finish her sentence, she felt a tug at the nape of her neck as she was lifted from the ground.

She turned her head around to see that the culprit was none other than Lin Sanjiu.

“No, that won’t do,” Lin Sanjiu ignored the slimy texture beneath her palm and pinched Soulsqn’s mouth closed, “Who knows where did you hide the cat doctor? I’m staying here if you are not going back with us.”

“I can tell you where I hide them.”

Lin Sanjiu cocked her head. She pondered in silent for a moment before began to speak again.

“What if you are lying to me? Besides, I’m now very disgusted by that expression of yours. What do you think you are doing? Playing the hero game? Trying to save the world by yourself?” Lin Sanjiu tried to make herself sound as sarcastic as possible, “You think you are the strongest? And that you are the greatest among us all, and you can wipe out the entire Veda all by yourself?”

Puppeteer wheeled his head to face Lin Sanjiu. No sooner had the glitter around his eyes darkened, than it soon lightened up and turned back to light gray.

Puppeteer had been saying those words to her all the time that she’d become so accustomed to them they felt like a breeze to her. Right now, she just tweaked the sentences a bit and returned them to him. She had no idea how or what he would react, perhaps he would kill her out of rage. But she had to try.

She could feel the trembling from Soulsqn through her hand. She was very certain that if she were to release her now, the damn flesh worm would surely draw a demarcation line with her.

Puppeteer stood as stiff as a pole. If it weren’t for his chalky skin, he would have merged with the pitch-black space in the distance.

“If you want to die, there is nothing I can do to stop you.” He sneered coldly, “Of course, it’s none of my business if you have a death wish, and I would never stop you from trying to die.”

Soulsqn was stunned. She had never seen this side of Puppeteer before. “Erm, guys,” the flesh worm unplucked her mouth from Lin Sanjiu’s grip, “It’s good that you guys have plenty of fight in you, but what should we use to fight against the Veda? They knew every single of your ability and Special Item, my pheromone could do nothing but only trap them for a little while. Under the circumstance where the Veda know how to tackle every of our attack, can you guys please enlighten me on how we should defeat them?”

“Well, I think you don’t have to worry about that.”

All three of them jumped when that sentence popped up in their minds. Lin Sanjiu turned her head to look at the metal wall behind her. Understanding instantly dawned upon her, “The highest god is still inside the metal wall! No wonder we can’t find him anywhere, he has been waiting in the hole the whole time!”

“Bingo! That’s right!”

All of them zeroed in on one particular hole of the metal wall. They all had no idea whether it was their eyes playing a trick on them or other things, but there seemed to be something shifting inside the hole. Suddenly, a shadow whizzed across their eyes. And the next thing they knew, a tall man was standing in front of the metal wall. He had an eye-catching appearance, and he did not put on any clothes on his body.

Moving as fast as the gale in the night, Puppeteer soon vanished from his standing spot.

One of the most annoying aspects that they found in the Data Stream Library was that no matter how fast they could go, they would not be able to achieve the same speed as they were on the ground. The only one who was excluded from this law was the highest god. He tapped his feet on the invisible ground and leaped up, evading Puppeteer’s forceful ambush with feline grace. He stretched his arms open and anchored himself on the metal wall. He stared them down. A wide beam blossomed across his face.

“You want to turn me into your puppet, too?” The young deity’s voice was full of the joys of spring. It was as if he was playing a game right now, “You can’t do it in the Olympics, do you think can do it here?”

“What is so special about this place?” asked Lin Sanjiu.

“Don’t you guys know it already?” The highest god nodded his chin towards the white cord in the distance. His emerald eyes were glimmering with excitement, “This place is the Data Steam Library, the heaven for code writing and analyzing.”

“Since you are so good at creating things with the so-called code writing ability, can’t you create a pant and put it on?” Soulsqn snarled, “Stop swinging over there! Come down now!”

With those words, the highest god released his grip. Since there was no gravity here, he was descending slowly from the metal wall. As he fell, he looked at Puppeteer and shoved him a wide grin, giving him a chance to peek on his row of pearly white teeth, “You guys are the most interesting posthuman I have ever seen in the Olympics. I have a proud feeling of being a father right now…”

“Hang on,” said Lin Sanjiu as she halted Puppeteer. She studied the highest god’s face meticulously as a strange feeling stirred inside of her heart. She seemed to have realized something and quickly said, “You… you are not on good terms with the Veda, aren’t you?”

The highest god finally landed in front of them.

His ever-smiling face dropped. He asked, “Oh? What makes you say that?”

“You came in earlier than we do, and you can move faster than us here. However, you did not go to meet up the Veda but instead hide inside the hole and eavesdropped on our conversation,” Lin Sanjiu paused for a moment before continuing, “Besides, you only came out from your hiding when you heard we are devising a plan on how to fight the Veda. This is not really hard to guess.”

“Yeah, it is not hard to guess,” Soulsqn chimed in.

The highest god yawned. He scratched his puffy golden short hair and said, “Well, you make a point. Daddy is really relieved when I heard you guys have a strained relationship with the Veda.”

“Cut the crap. Who the hell are you?” Lin Sanjiu growled, “How are you related to the Veda?”

“And I thought you are pretty smart. How can you ask this kind of stupid question?” The highest god sighed, “Why should I tell you?” He looked Lin Sanjiu in the eyes and smiles, creating two dimples on his cheeks, “Why don’t you guess what am I going to do next? If you guessed it right, I will tell you.”

This was not Lin Sanjiu had expected. As her brows knitted in confusion, the naked man in front of them spun around and lunged towards the metal wall at his back. This time, his target was not only the metal wall. In the blink of an eye, he had caught the edge of a hole.

However, somebody was faster than him.

The highest god was hanging himself by the edge of a hole. Before he could go inside, he suddenly sensed something and he withdrew his hand. As he slid down the metal wall, he raised his head to see that what it should have been the row of holes was now replaced by a large swath of greyish white. It seemed as if somebody had erased the hole with an eraser, and if it weren’t for his quick response, he was certain that his hand would share the same fate as those holes.

This was by far the first time Lin Sanjiu saw the highest god had a change of expression. He turned around and looked at the group. Half of Puppeteer’s face scrunched up as a sinister smile tugged at the corner of his lips.

“There are a lot of limitations to this Special Item of mine. However. you’re lucky. It’s cooling time has just finished.”

His icy but soft voice rang out in Lin Sanjiu’s mind, “You shouldn’t have shown yourself. I’m currently in need of puppets. I wonder what it would be like to have a god as my puppet.”
