Apocalypse: I Have One More Keyword Than Others-Chapter 786 - 565 Who is the chess player?_2

"They don’t know if what I’m saying is true or false." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"The so-called saintly ascension to break free from Pan-Universe Entertainment’s control, the claim that I’m an Incarnation of Heaven attempting to escape the cycle of reincarnation and deliberately entering the game to seize keywords."

"In their eyes, perhaps it’s just a lie I’ve concocted to deceive you, to secure greater benefits for myself, and to gain the ultimate victory in this game...."

"Senior?" Emperor Donghua looked at Duge with a shocked face, at this moment he too was somewhat confused.

"See, even you can’t tell if it’s true or false?" Duge laughed, "When falsehoods masquerade as truth, truth also becomes falsehood; when truth is feigned as falsehood, falsehood becomes truth. This is the effect I desire.

If it really were as you said, attracting all Alien Warriors under my command and using all means to train them, indeed, would be more efficient and convenient."

"But then, what would be the point of the game?

"Having suspense, conflict, allowing Alien Warriors to fall under different people’s control, allowing each of them to have their own thoughts, each striving for their own interests, to struggle and match wits with the people of this world."

"Even if they become powerful enough to backstab me, to strike against me, it means that this game is filled with uncertainties."

"That’s why I crafted the Human Emperor Inheritance in the Mortal Realm and made the powerful Immortal Court my enemy.

"Even when my foundation was not yet stable, I went to the Southern Zen Region, just to give the Immortal Court an opportunity...."

"To make this game completely perplexing, no one knows which direction the future will take."

"Like this."

"The audience will be curious whether the Human Race or the Immortal Court will win, can I, the Incarnation of Heaven, defeat the Immortal Emperor?

"Can I defeat the Daoist Ancestor?

"And what’s next, can the Southern Zen Region withstand the Immortal Court’s conquest?

"Different viewers have different expectations, there’s always a point that’s worth their anticipation."

"This way, the Alien Battlefield will be indefinitely prolonged. And only in this way, do we have a chance to recreate the Daoist Rhyme in the end!"

"So, is what you’re saying now true or false?"

"No."

"You guessed long ago that upon leaving the Eastern Polar Continent, people from the Heavenly Court would descend."

"Then, just for the excitement of the game, you arranged for all my disciples to fall into the Heavenly Court’s captivity?"

Emperor Donghua looked at Duge incredulously, his heart filled with mixed feelings, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to say!

"Daoist Eastern Radiance, you’ve been following me all this time, don’t you know if I’m speaking the truth or not?" Duge saw through Emperor Donghua’s thoughts and said with a smile, "Remember, follow your heart, what you believe is true. Don’t be confused by any external conditions, only then can you ultimately grasp the great Dao."

Emperor Donghua looked at Duge and said, "Senior, I can tell truth from falsehood. But did you deliberately leave flaws, leading to Wan Ji and the others being captured by Xianyou True Monarch and taken to the Heavenly Court...."

"Daoist Eastern Radiance, the universe is indifferent and regards all beings as straw dogs." Duge smiled, "In my view, whether they be Alien Warriors, members of the Demon Clan, the Human Race, all beings are equal, the world changes like the sea turning into mulberry fields, the cycle of life and death, I’ve seen too much..."

Emperor Donghua frowned and said, "But you just mentioned that the Human Race should be inclusive and accommodating."

"At that time, I was in the position of the Human Emperor, naturally, I had to consider matters from the perspective of the Human Emperor." Duge smiled and said, "As the Human Emperor, I naturally have to consider the future of the Human Race."

"...." Emperor Donghua stared wide-eyed, pursed his lips and then said, "Senior, Wan Ji and the others hold you in high esteem...."

Duge smiled and interrupted him, "Daoist Eastern Radiance, don’t panic, isn’t this also a twist of fate for them?

"Although in my eyes, all beings are equal. I am not the Heavenly Dao yet, and now there is already karma between me and them.

"This karma must eventually be resolved. One day, when I become a saint in this world, with a single word I can restore them, even if they’ve turned to dust...."

"Perhaps!"

Emperor Donghua gazed at Duge, suddenly sensing the inexorable indifference of the universe.

He took a deep breath, casting aside the tumultuous thoughts from his mind, "Senior, aren’t you worried that revealing all this would prompt them to instantly terminate this game?"

"Unless they can find the world where my true body resides and prove that I really am an Incarnation of Heaven." Duge said with a mischievous smile, "Otherwise, because of a story I made up, due to a tale that can’t be proven true or false, if they end this Alien Battlefield,

"then the Pan-Universal Entertainment Company will become the butt of a joke, and I reckon no one will watch their programs ever again.

They couldn’t afford to gamble!

I think, right now, the folks at Pan-Universal Entertainment Headquarters must be frantically searching for the world where my real body resides. After all, I’ve provided them with so many clues..."

...

Pan-Universal Entertainment Headquarters.

Ross, listening to Duge’s lengthy analysis, was wide-eyed and tongue-tied, unable to utter a word.

At that moment.

He even suspected that the Duge in the game really was the Incarnation of Heaven.

Because Duge had guessed every single one of his thoughts, including the fact that he had sent people to look for the very world Duge’s real body mentioned...

He even hit the nail on the head that he truly wasn’t willing to end this Alien Battlefield, even considering it his last moment of glory before the curtain fell!

Ross felt like a clown, completely stripped clean by Duge, with not a shred of privacy left.

Although he held Duge’s destiny in his hands, able to kill him with a flick of his finger, at this very moment, Ross felt like he was the one whose fate was controlled...

Damn it, who really is the player here?

Ross clenched his fists tightly.

"Ross, I think you should consider my suggestion," Hord, the head of the planning department, said after a brief silence, "If one day the audience loses interest in Duge, bring him into the company to be a planner. He could create countless hit shows for the company."

"What a terrifying kid; we’re all being manipulated by him," the head of the online department shook his head, pushing the forum page in front of everyone.

On the forum.

Duge’s words had ignited the audience’s passion once again.

"Duge is right; I’m dying to know whether he really is the Incarnation of Heaven. If Pan-Universal Entertainment shuts down the game prematurely, I will despise them for life and never watch their shows again."

"Agreed."

"I’ve never seen an Alien Warrior provoke Pan-Universal Entertainment Company so recklessly in the game. This kid is too arrogant. But I like it."

"I declare that if Duge is not in future Alien Battlefields, I won’t watch even a second of it."

"Gosh, it’s like he can peer into my heart. Everything he said is exactly what I want to know. Those poor Alien Warriors don’t stand a chance against him."

"I can’t wait to find out Duge’s secret. I have a suggestion: after this Alien Battlefield, let’s capture him and perform a soul slice!"

"The guy upstairs must have lost a fortune on Duge to suggest something so disgusting."

"Whoever dares to touch Duge, I will fight them to the end. He is my treasure of a player, and I want to see him unveil his secrets bit by bit in the game."

"To be honest, I want to collect his Soul Seed."

"This Alien Battlefield is so amazing; Duge has directed everything. The Resource Game before Duge’s appearance is simply shit compared to it. It’s laughable how I used to enjoy it; my taste is literally crap."

"I’m now certain that Duge really is the Incarnation of Heaven. He will definitely defeat Pan-Universal Entertainment, take possession of all the keyword-related rules, and become a being transcendent of everything. Just thinking about it is so cool."

"If someone could really control all the keywords, they would truly transcend everything, but pity..."

"Sigh, the tragic past is an eternal pain for our race."

"No one can control all the keyword laws; Duge’s ideas will only end up as a beautiful bubble in the end."

"Why bring up this topic? You guys don’t really believe that Duge is the Incarnation of Heaven, do you?"

"Isn’t he?"

"Truth be told, our old man at home is already using detectors to search for Duge’s homeworld in the universe. He believes in Duge’s stories utterly and is filled with curiosity about his hometown..."

"If we really can find Duge’s homeworld, remember to give the coordinates to Pan-Universal Entertainment. Turn their world into a new game arena, and send Duge back there. That would be really interesting."
