Chapter 2350: Chapter 2345: The Death-Defying Dresser
Cardon Dickens, as an old man on the brink of death, seemed to have done something incredible.
In the silent warehouse, the sound indicating that this week’s tasks were all completed had already echoed.
Yet, Fu Qian weighed the special reward without rushing to leave.
A seemingly ordinary item, yet containing a shattered destiny to become a God?
Fu Qian, who always considered his reading comprehension skills as decent, found this effect of "disqualified from becoming a God" remarkably exaggerated within the task rewards.
Infected by the destiny to become a God, drawn toward an invisible path?
Just recently, he lamented over having no clues for a true First Phase ritual, and then something like this is delivered straight to him?
It seemed very considerate.
Of course, there were many questions.
For example, almost certainly not his own Divine Road...
For example, the warehouse had failed more than once or twice; its reliability might be slightly higher than the enlightenment given by Brother Huo last time, but still difficult to avoid the risk of pitfalls...
Furthermore, this is a "shattered" destiny to become a God; even named Black Dream, wearing it might directly lead to downfall—which is still very valuable.
Despite these numerous issues, Fu Qian expressed he wouldn’t mind giving it a try at the right moment.
Firstly, touching upon various aspects; even ancient Supremes are still learning modern knowledge, like Prism of Radiant Transformation opening a disco; how could a young person of the new era like him remain stagnant?
Of course, there would be danger, but how could Fu Qian be naive enough to think he could completely avoid this on the Divine Road?
Reflecting on this journey, every step after Middle Tier could be described as using all means possible.
Calmly searching for rituals and materials?
All I can say is that such a transcendent life would be overly perfect for me.
As for the second reason, it’s simpler; the current state is rather endurance.
Even if, by then, it brings no enlightenment to my path of transcendence.
With the current special state, encountering a destiny meant to become a God might spark some unexpected outcomes, still offering an excellent opportunity to peer into transcendent mysteries.
I have mentioned repeatedly before that it is best to take risks when you have plenty of capital—which is why the previous praise for Mr. Cardon Sr.
In a situation with no way out, he still made a desperate gamble.
And what he gambled on was even "his life being a mistake."
Even if he overcame all odds and won the gamble, what he gains is merely emptiness after death.
Perhaps this is where the name of the containment item, "Wish of Oblivion," comes from?
Finding box 2-013, Fu Qian looked at its contents and silently sighed.
It’s actually an adult-sized statue, easily reminiscent of a well-dressed old man, yet topped with a child’s face.
...
The Righteous is the youngest of the Divine Favored; regarding the introduction of the mask, this statement is quite intriguing.
First is the title "Righteous," making the special group Mr. Dickens belonged to immediately seem not simple.
The mission summary almost clearly stated that essentially, the organization was nothing but a group of delusional people.
Including the one buried, who was just a mortal, and Dickens, who would lie down after consuming the congregation, was merely self-hypnotizing.
However, the concept of the "Unjust" seemed to be real.
So much so that the overall feeling is like a group of people stumbled upon the Sunflower Manual, the item is correct but they themselves lack cultivation qualifications.
Even more magically, their seemingly unintended actions successfully attracted a contestant naturally endowed with the Exorcism Sword Manual, and successfully awakened that point.
Is this the manifestation of "God’s destiny"?
After all, Mr. Cardon’s Sr. experience strongly resembles the growth of a seed.
As for the "Divine Favored," Fu Qian expressed persistent curiosity about what Eve within Wen Li truly was.
The previous conclusion was that she was a living Extraordinary Building.
Later, he encountered many examples, Bernard, Rosetta... and the Virgin Lanina nurturing the Holy Infant Star, could apply this explanation as well.
But what is the relationship between these living entities and the corresponding Superior Beings on the paths of becoming God?
When first entering the Academy, the Corrupted Sword Heart that was killed once requested to make Fu Qian his Favored; the benefit was unknowingly receiving his protection—
The relationship of these living Extraordinary Buildings with the corresponding path Superior Beings may not be as inseparable as a pact, but surely tighter than ordinary transcendents.
Favored, minions... such titles do fit rather nicely.
It seems more reasonable why the Holy Infant Star could be conceived from Lanina’s body.
Furthermore, there’s the notion of being "the youngest."
It’s widely known some terms shouldn’t be used carelessly; such a straightforward expression by the warehouse inevitably links to the title "disqualified from becoming a God."
A God is a God; even if completely dead, it’s still a Death God. What does this disqualification mean—because the Redeemer and His minions were born simultaneously.
It seems that the answer has already been given.
Mr. Cardon’s Sr. act of defying the odds appeared not only to prevent the birth of minions but even a corresponding Divine Being.
Sounds mind-boggling, but there are cases—my Second Phase ritual.
If the actions at that time didn’t succeed, wouldn’t the path of the Pseudo-God also cease to exist?
Prism of Radiant Transformation once said that He was able to lay a trap on this trait because He sensed a change in the Supernatural World.
The trait was also created from nothing, because anchoring a Divine Road gave birth to it.
Summarizing, this "youngest of the Divine Favored" Righteous, could it be playing a similar anchoring role for the Divine Position as I did back then?
Its growth represents the true birth of the Redeemer?
Although, during the last crucial step, it encountered deadly resistance.
...
The thoughts seemed to gradually become clearer, accompanied by Mr. Cardon’s Sr. achievements growing increasingly glorious...
So, how does one reach that place?
In contemplation, Fu Qian reminisced about the night paths taken before.
If there’s a chance, why not reminisce again and taste Aunt Lucy’s cream soup from Cardon Sr.’s dream widow?
Not showing any disdain for the old, Fu Qian still picked up the "Messenger" and checked himself first.
Very good, although the body suffered major injuries, the first moment returning to the warehouse had carefully concealed the wounds, and this outfit didn’t stain too much with blood.
Otherwise, it would not only add to the losses but also risk frightening the passengers.
With a slight nod, Fu Qian already wore the Messenger.
The sky suddenly brightened, the seat shook, and before him was already a tram traversing through the ages.
