The Growth of a God-Chapter 623 - 7: The Celestial Being Who Trades Civilizations
The interior of Maitot’s carriage compressed not only the normal spatial relations.
With the normal flow of time outside, the "Land of No Gods" was reachable within a single breath, but inside Maitot’s carriage, it took a full ten days.
This exaggerated time ratio is one of the most fascinating wonders of Maitot’s carriage.
Because in each compartment of Maitot, the ratio of time and space is different.
The compartment overseen by Laputa is among the many compartments of Maitot, the one with a time ratio closest to normal.
Apart from the differences in space and time, Maitot’s carriage also houses a variety of bizarre intelligent creatures.
On the first day in the carriage, Marquis Yi and Feng Xi encountered an octopus with a pumpkin head, an invisible being with a body like foam, and a series of creatures beyond their comprehension.
As standard Mountain and Sea People, Marquis Yi and Feng Xi could connect to the [Game Realm] via brain-computer implants.
During their time acting as NPCs in the [Game Realm], they had already witnessed the biodiversity of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
However, the strange creatures within this carriage still greatly exceeded their imagination.
Nevertheless, after a brief period of amazement, Marquis Yi and Feng Xi restrained their overflowing curiosity and began using their implants to construct their own house.
Since both were Winged men, their house was also imbued with the Winged man style of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Out of pride in Mountain and Sea Civilization, when building their house, Marquis Yi and Feng Xi tried to showcase the characteristics of Mountain and Sea Civilization as much as possible.
In fact, this was one of the reasons they chose to build their own house.
After witnessing buildings of various styles, both Marquis Yi and Feng Xi decided to leave the unique aesthetic and art of Mountain and Sea Civilization in this carriage.
Hmm, this is perhaps one of the stereotypes people have about the Winged Man race?
Were they Skeletons, they wouldn’t compare in such trivial matters.
Thus, once the houses of the two Winged men were built, it unsurprisingly drew a crowd of enthusiastic onlookers.
Among these onlookers, a chubby mysterious creature seemed quite inconspicuous.
Only after the crowd dispersed did the chubby mysterious creature approach Marquis Yi and Feng Xi, surprising them as they entertained the visitor.
......................................................
"You are Mountain and Sea People, right?"
The chubby mysterious creature patted his belly, sitting on a chair made of piled feathers as he asked.
"Don’t look at me like that, your identity is actually easy to guess."
"If the gods of this world weren’t trapped, they would definitely recognize your identity before I did."
Looking at each other, it was ultimately the more proactive Marquis Yi who spoke up.
"From what you said, it seems you aren’t trapped in this world?"
"Who are you?"
"How did you avoid the ’Meme Blessing’?"
"And, is there a reason you came to us now?"
This series of questions from Marquis Yi momentarily stumped the chubby mysterious creature.
Fortunately, the chubby mysterious creature was quite quick on the uptake and soon got accustomed to this straightforward conversation.
"You asked a lot at once, but I can answer them one by one."
"I’ve long forgotten my true name, but you can call me ’Faceless’."
"This is the unified designation of our sect, and also a trial and selection our God gave us..."
"I haven’t avoided what you call the ’Meme Blessing’."
"Because I came to this world voluntarily and also swore not to spread the faith and knowledge of this world."
After a slight pause, the chubby mysterious creature continued.
"As for why I came to you, it’s simple."
"Our sect is actually a commercial sect traversing the All Heavens and Myriad Realms..."
"I know this might sound a bit off, but as middlemen of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, we actually enjoy networking with various different species and civilizations."
Hearing this, Feng Xi, who somewhat understood the chubby creature’s intention, suddenly spoke.
"Are you a subordinate entity of the ’Civilization Seller’?"
Marquis Yi was still a bit confused, but the chubby creature noticeably paused, then decisively shook his head in denial.
"No, my God is not a ’Civilization Seller’."
"Of course, I’m not denying that this world does have subordinate units of the ’Civilization Seller’, and some gods might indeed be ’Civilization Sellers’."
Seeing Marquis Yi’s confusion, Feng Xi whispered to him.
"What is a ’Civilization Seller’?"
With a quick glance at the still smiling chubby creature who seemed disinclined to intervene in the conversation, Feng Xi hesitated briefly.
"You should know... I didn’t actually grow up as a Winged man through normal means."
Marquis Yi nodded lightly, aware of this point.
Yet, he was curious, how did this relate to Feng Xi’s mention of the ’Civilization Seller’?
For some reason, Marquis Yi felt as though he was unknowingly touching upon a truth Feng Xi had kept distant from others.
"My mentor was once a ’Civilization Seller’."
"At least until she met Uncle Tianyou..."
"My mentor made a living out of selling various unique races and civilizations from the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, and became the notorious ’Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’ in the process."
Upon hearing the title ’Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’, Marquis Yi was taken aback once more.
Because this title is distinctly used by Celestial Beings, not by the indigenous gods and demigods of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
"Your mentor... is from the Celestial Human Realm?"
The voice carried a bit of incredulity, for in Marquis Yi’s impression, the Mountain and Sea Realm seldom accepted immigrants from other worlds.
Combined with Feng Xi’s unusual upbringing, it was likely he wasn’t raised as Mountain and Sea People within the Mountain and Sea Realm.
"That’s right, my mentor is a Celestial Being from the Celestial Human Realm, and I also grew up in the Celestial Human Realm."
"My parents perished in that great war in the Celestial Human Realm, and their egg was left behind on the battlefield as a result."
"It was my mentor who picked up that egg and hatched me from it."
As Feng Xi seriously recounted his past, he gradually fell into reminiscence.
"By the standards of the Mountain and Sea Realm, my childhood wasn’t a happy one..."
"Because my mentor raised me simply as a unique ’commodity’ of considerable value."
