“But it’s okay, starting now, we brothers will carefully observe and surely we will discover something.”
Tang Xian’s confidence indeed granted Tang Jing some courage.
“Brother, do you not like our current life?”
“But if it is fake, what’s the point of it being wonderful?”
“If the truth is brutal…
then choosing a false happiness might not be…”
“Shut up.”
Tang Xian suddenly raised his voice, causing Tang Jing to be stunned.
Tang Xian’s hand rested on Tang Jing’s shoulder:
“I believe that you, just like me, are real.
Listen, brother, if it weren’t for something in the real world that is worth our protection, then maybe you and I would, like everyone else, be content to play our parts on this island.
This place is indeed beautiful, but if there truly exists another world that is more real, shouldn’t we at least have the right to choose?”
“Yes…”
Tang Jing agreed on this point.
Once they had this realization, the brothers quickly made up their minds.
Tang Jing asked:
“What does brother plan to do?”
“Maybe I really am just a lunatic?” Tang Xian suddenly posed this question at that moment.
Tang Jing said:
“Brother, stop testing me.
I believe in your intuition.”
“Good, listen, if this world is fake, then all material things are unreal, everything is just an existence of consciousness.
But as beings of consciousness too, we cannot feel it.”
“So what then?”
“So we should find a loophole.”
“Something like a logical loophole?”
“Exactly, although I think one should not trust intuition, I have nothing else to refer to.
However, for months now, it’s like a voice in my head has been telling me, this world is fake, and if we continue to stay, sooner or later we would turn into a string of data.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means…
our existence could be deleted or copied at any time, we would no longer possess the individuality of life…”
This neurotic conversation with no basis became the beginning of the collapse of Constantine’s Divine Kingdom.
At that moment, Tang Jing nodded to Tang Xian and said:
“Then let’s uncover the truth together.”
As he voiced these words, Tang Jing’s mind briefly flashed with something, but it was too fleeting to capture.
But Tang Jing understood the sensation—it was that familiar feeling again.
It was as if many years ago, when he was a child, he had said similar words with his brother.
Only the setting wasn’t here, but in another place—a colder fortress.
Time in the Divine Kingdom, after all, is not like reality.
It’s like a dream of the Siren.
A long time may pass in a dream, but in reality, it’s only a breath.
Tang Xian and Tang Jing began to investigate each person.
They inquired about their pasts, backgrounds, and preferences.
The two of them were brazen and weren’t afraid of arousing any suspicion.
But strangely, people answered whatever Tang Jing asked, while when Tang Xian asked, it was as if his permissions were insufficient—most people disregarded him, finding excuses to avoid the questions.
These anomalies only strengthened the brothers’ resolve.
…
…
The investigative process was neither smooth nor particularly difficult.
It took quite some time, roughly half a month in the Divine Kingdom, before Tang Xian and Tang Jing finally found
The ultimate flaw—in Li Wanye.
Tang Xian remembered that Li Wanye had a daughter.
For some reason, Tang Xian couldn’t recall who this daughter was, but her role was crucial.
And when Tang Xian himself asked Li Wanye, he said nothing.
Only when Tang Jing inquired did Li Wanye’s expression change.
“Do you want to continue being the mayor of this town, or do you want to protect your daughter?”
“Daughter…” Li Wanye appeared to be extremely bewildered.
In the real world, that Li Wanye was ruthless beyond measure and could turn one-sixth of the world’s population into Judgement Knights to solidify the Li family’s position.
To everyone, Li Wanye ought to be a heartless despot, but while Li Wanye could deceive the entire world, how could he deceive the Orderers?
The real Li Wanye considered his three children to be of utmost importance.
All that he did, he merely hoped to leave the most magnificent world for his offspring.
Even if Li Xiaoyu and Li Xiaonian…
didn’t want such a legacy.
Everything was extremely similar to when Tang Xian first saw Li Xiaoyu in the Divine State; suddenly, all street scenes came to a halt.
The flowing wind, the surrounding crowd, everything stood still.
When logical loopholes appeared in this world, the world of the Divine State would crumble on its own.
Tang Xian and Tang Jing, at this moment, looked at the world as if time had stopped, and they also watched as the enormous clouds in the distance gradually turned gray, both revealing expressions of horror.
But in Tang Xian’s eyes was more joy:
“We were right!
There really is something wrong with this world.”
However, this joy did not last for long.
The surrounding objects began to slowly vanish, the entire vast Levitating Islands turned into a matrix floating with data.
Streets, houses, pedestrians, everything dissipated like smoke.
Tang Jing always believed that as long as he was with his brother, they could face everything.
But then, the truly terrifying thing happened.
Tang Xian—was fading away little by little.
Tang Jing stepped back several paces in disbelief, staring at everything happening, shaking his head repeatedly:
“Why…
even you, brother…
”
At this moment, Tang Xian instead became calmer.
He looked at the gray sky and spoke in an even tone:
“So that’s how it is.”
“What happened…
Why is my brother disappearing with it…
”
Tang Xian’s body became more and more translucent, and he slowly said:
“Actually, at first, I thought that you, my brother, were fake too, but now it seems I was wrong.
I’ve finally understood, this island exists just to trap you.
And I am just a part of what’s trapping you, I don’t know why I suddenly developed the consciousness to resist, but I’m glad that I could help you leave this place.”
Tang Xian revealed a smile, a smile incredibly gentle.
It was the smile Tang Jing had always wanted to see.
“So…
so…
that’s why those people answered my questions and refused to answer yours, brother?”
“Yes, because, in the end, you are the master of this island, with the highest level, while I, like everyone else, am of the same level, all meant to confuse you, to trap you.”
Tang Jing suddenly felt a headache, as sharp as being pricked by needles.
Tang Xian’s hand once again settled on Tang Jing’s shoulder, but with no weight to it, like an insubstantial soul.
“Look, little brother, there are many other islands in this world, just like you, all trapped in a false world, I can’t leave with you anymore, but you…
you must take these people with you in the future.”
After these words were spoken, many memories suddenly flooded Tang Jing’s mind.
Tang Xian disappeared completely.
Meanwhile, in the fortress of the Divine Throne, Constantine, who shouldn’t have awakened at this time, suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes carried pain as he moved, heading towards the lowest level of the Divine Throne.
It was the sixth day, and on this day, more and more humans left the fortress, heading towards Baichuan City.
On this day, the two Constantines in the Divine State joined forces and broke free from the shackles of the Divine State.
When Constantine reached the lowest level of the Divine Throne, all doors seemed to gain consciousness, beginning to let Constantine pass.
He passed unimpeded, the various obstacles he had encountered before were now nowhere to be found, as if the person behind the scenes in the deepest depths had suddenly taken an interest in Constantine, the high and mighty Divine King decided to meet this subordinate.
Now was the seventh day, the final day for Constantine.
(Yesterday, in order to avoid the special agents tasked with eradicating impoverished individuals, I fled all over the place and finally managed to save my life, which is why there was no update~ today there will be a little more to make up for it, and either tomorrow or the day after, this volume should be finished.)
