[You look toward the stone stele. It is still a hazy blur. Only Rona, who successfully analyzed it, can see the contents within…]

[You are so anxious that you scratch your head and cheeks, wishing you could immediately transplant your own eyes onto Rona.]

[At last, Rona finishes reading the text, yet falls into a long daze…]

[Deep despair is stamped onto her beautiful face. This Great Sage, who is only one step away from godhood, now seems to have lost all faith. She suddenly collapses to her knees on the ground and mutters…] 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

[There is no hope. There is no hope…]

[So you and she had both completely misunderstood everything. This was all the Abyss’s world-shaking scheme!]

[The despair shown by Rona runs deep into her bones. While you, who do not know the truth, feel baffled, you also inexplicably feel your hair standing on end and a chill run down your spine.]

[Rona gives a miserable smile. You have rarely seen this calm and erudite woman show a smile, but seeing such a smile now, you cannot feel happy no matter what.]

[She raises her head and looks at the stone stele, calmly reading the stele text word by word…]

[…]

[The Abyss Child will, in the unseen, come to grasp the Authority of the Abyss and the stars, kill Omniscient True Knowledge, and become the new Abyss!]

[After Omniscient True Knowledge falls asleep, He will be dominated by Disorder. The servant who controls the world in His place will be unable to awaken his former master. Even if He can awaken Him, what He awakens will be a terrifying evil god that destroys the world.]

[The servant’s only hope is to repeatedly use the Authority left behind by the Omniscient evil god to suppress the remaining star gods, preventing the stars from returning to their place, and thereby preventing the Abyss from reviving.]

[But the star gods not only bear the stars’ Differentiation Authority, the Abyss has also differentiated its own Assimilation Authority onto the star gods.]

[As a split body of Omniscient True Knowledge, each time the servant suppresses a star god, each time He uses the Authority of the Omniscient evil god to suppress a star god, the power of analysis will cause Him to undergo the stars’ Differentiation, differentiating Him from His master.]

[Not only that, every time He suppresses a star god, the power of analysis will cause Him to undergo the Abyss’s Assimilation, assimilating Him into an existence the same as the Abyss, just like the stars of old.]

[When only a very few star gods remain, and the degree of assimilation surges to the critical point, the servant will become the Abyss Child…]

[At that time, there will no longer be any Servant of Knowledge in this world, only the Abyss Child burning with fanatical devotion.]

[Assimilation and Differentiation are a silent, imperceptible process. When the Servant of Knowledge foresees the future and realizes this transformation, He will already no longer be the Servant of Knowledge, but the Abyss Child.]

[The Abyss Child will control the Authority of the Abyss and the stars, and deliver to Omniscient True Knowledge… the most fatal blow!]

[Of course, the Abyss will not forget the most terrifying existence of all, Disorder!]

[In the end, the former Abyss and stars, and even the former Omniscient, will all cease to exist, because assimilation is mutual. While assimilating the Servant of Knowledge, the Abyss and the stars will also be assimilated by the Disorder contained within the Omniscient Authority.]

[The three main gods’ bodies will be destroyed as vessels for absorbing Disorder…]

[And They will be reborn as a new existence through the body of the Abyss Child, a body that has already differentiated and expelled all Disorder through complete assimilation!]

[In order to leave behind not even the slightest trace of Disorder, the new main god, a main god with the Abyss as the main body, an unprecedented triune main god, will cleanse, and even destroy, the entire world.]

[New species will replace old species, new order will replace old order, and a new world will be built atop the destroyed old world!]

[…]

[Rona lifts her head and looks at you. In a helpless and mournful voice, she says, you are not the Abyss Child. The Servant of Knowledge is the Abyss Child…]

[And the seal on the stone stele was not set by the Abyss either. Because only very few unsuppressed star gods remain, His scheme has already reached its final stage. He has no need to conceal this scheme any longer…]

[No, this is not even a scheme. This is an inescapable open trap. Even if the servant foresaw the Abyss’s plan, He could not change the outcome.]

[The servant has three choices, but all three lead to certain death!]

[He cannot awaken Omniscient True Knowledge, who has already been dominated by Disorder. Even if He has a way to awaken Him, because Omniscient has already become an evil god, that would only lead to the world’s destruction ahead of time.]

[And if He does nothing and does not suppress the surviving star gods, then the Abyss and the stars will return intact, and the servant will have to face two main gods in their prime. The result of the third god war would certainly end in crushing defeat.]

[And if He suppresses the remaining star gods, then the servant will be assimilated by the Abyss Authority on those star gods… In the end, the Servant of Knowledge will be assimilated into the Abyss Child, and even become the new Abyss, the triune Abyss.]

[This is a hopeless dead end with no solution!]

[You and she, Rona, were both completely wrong. The aura of the seal on the stone stele felt familiar to her because the one who set the seal was not the Abyss at all, but the Servant of Knowledge!]

[The servant once bestowed a trace of Omniscient Authority upon her, which is why her talent became so extraordinary. And now, when she encounters a seal set by the servant using Omniscient Authority, having her analyze it naturally allows her to decipher the answer almost by instinct.]

[The reason the servant wanted to cover up this secret was because the servant chose the last ending…]

[Having suppressed too many star gods, He can no longer turn back. He has very likely already become the Abyss Child. He is willing to become a part of the Abyss.]

[He wants to become that unprecedented triune main god!]

[Omniscient will never awaken again. The only god that the hundreds of millions of Scholars could rely on, the Servant of Knowledge who governed the world in Omniscient’s place, has become the greatest enemy… that is the most despairing thing of all!]

“The Abyss Child isn’t me, but the Servant of Knowledge…”

“The Servant of Knowledge has already been assimilated by the Abyss and has become the Abyss Child…”

Lin Xun’s face was filled with shock, as though waking from a dream.

The Abyss Child really could obtain the Authority of the Abyss and the stars, but the Abyss Child was not him at all. It was the Servant of Knowledge, who had already been assimilated by the Abyss!

Facing those remaining star gods one by one, the servant was like a person dying of thirst looking at bottles of poisoned wine. He knew that drinking them would kill Him, yet He still had no choice but to drink them at all costs.

Compared with waiting for the stars and the Abyss to return in full strength and launch the third god war, a situation bound for defeat, drinking poison to quench thirst would at least preserve the master’s Omniscient Authority, allowing that Authority to become part of the triune new Abyss.

This was an unsolvable dead end. No matter what the servant chose, He could not win this war.

Perhaps from the moment the Abyss fled into the starry sky and encountered the stars, the ending had already been decided.

“How am I supposed to play this?”

“If even the servant has already become an enemy, then what the hell am I even playing for?!”

Lin Xun could not help swearing.

When the strongest god in one’s own camp had already become the enemy, the current situation could only be described as enemies on all sides, danger from every direction. There was simply no possibility of victory.

“No, this hellish game definitely would not present a dead end. There must still be a sliver of hope!”
