"What kind of abilities does the God of Misfortune have?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I don't know, every Deity has a few tricks up their sleeves that they use specifically to deal with normal battles, but only in desperate situations would they use their trump cards" Shen Xue answered.
Gu Qing Shan appeared contemplative.
The three of them were sitting on a late-night bus.
Lola was lying on the long seat with her head resting on Gu Qing Shan's lap.
Gu Qing Shan looked down, lightly stroked Lola's hair, and asked: "Are you still dizzy?"
"A bit better" Lola rubbed her face.
She didn't think she would be so embarrassed that she would get carsick while riding this kind of ancient technological vehicle.
Shen Xue's expression suddenly changed.
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan immediately asked.
"The Recorder of the Old Gods is dead" Shen Xue spoke in a low voice.
"Who killed him?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"The Underworld King — — - he had already taken away Jian Feng's soul, I'm guessing he was warning me" Shen Xue sighed.
"The Recorder of the Old Gods' secrets is dead, which means the war between the Old Gods has come one step closer" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What's our battle plan?" Shen Xue asked.
"Later, you and Lola hide first, I'm going to meet the God of Misfortune. When the time comes, you'll act" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What time?" Shen Xue was confused.
"It's hard to say — — if the God of Misfortune is completely defenseless, can you kill him?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Completely defenseless? Anyone who is completely defenseless in front of the God of Death can only die "Shen Xue answered.
"Then that's fine, wait for my signal" Gu Qing Shan said.
Shen Xue sighed and muttered: "If I obtain the Deific Authority of Calamity, as the Controller of Death and Calamity, there will be even fewer people who dare to mess with me"
"Then it's decided" Gu Qing Shan said.
…
Gu Qing Shan alighted from the car.
He exhaled a breath of cold air and walked along the cold and hard stone path. Soon, he arrived at the square.
It was late at night.
The temperature was getting lower and lower, and the wind was howling in the square. It was not suitable for anyone to stay here.
The streetlights emitted a weak light, but not even a shadow could be seen.
Gu Qing Shan looked around.
He was the only one in the entire square.
— — the God of Misfortune had yet to arrive.
Gu Qing Shan casually walked around the square, silently sensing the changes in her power.
Now, many healthy people also began to have the idea of worshiping him.
Women are for beauty.
Young people wanted to be strong and healthy.
Old people live for a long time.
And this was only one night. If he had more time to recruit more believers —
Gu Qing Shan even felt that one day, she would be able to use [Earthen Dual Body]!
Now that I think about it, the Earth Creator didn't come into contact with the Land of the Gods at the time, but rather established a civilization within the Earth World.
Perhaps it had developed some faith in the dark.
That's completely possible.
Suddenly, Gu Qing Shan sensed something and looked up.
A black bird hovered on top of a streetlight in front of him.
「 You're early 」 the black bird said.
"Because I don't need an hour to make my choice" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 State your choice 」 the black bird said.
"Of course I'm going to join you" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The black bird stared closely at him for a while before speaking: 「 Once you've made your decision, you can't regret it, otherwise, we'll definitely kill you 」
"Of course, in truth, you saved my life" saying that, Gu Qing Shan felt a bit relieved.
— — -we're both Deities, it seems there's no way for us to control each other's minds.
「 Saved your life? 」 the black bird asked in surprise.
「 Yes, in truth, when you arrived, the God of Death was about to kill me, and you just happened to save my life 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Where is she now?"
"She left"
「 Hmph, at least she knows what's good for her, but her fate will soon be sealed 」
The black bird landed and turned into a man wearing a black trench coat, standing in front of Gu Qing Shan.
「 Tell me, why didn't you consider joining the [Order] faction? 」 the God of Misfortune evaluated him with an inquisitive gaze.
"The ground is a place to bury corpses" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 I don't trust you 」 the God of Misfortune replied.
「 You don't need to trust me, just watch what I do from now on 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
He paused briefly before continuing: 「 Of course, if you can see how many people I've killed, it might be able to deepen the trust between us — — - 」
A voice came from next to him:
「 Of course 」
Quite a few Deities appeared from the void of space.
Gu Qing Shan was shocked and muttered: "Why are there so many Deities!?"
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, plus the God of Misfortune, a total of 7 Deities.
This was unexpected.
「 Did you think we would act alone? If you don't join us, we will kill you together to prevent you from becoming a member of the [Order] faction 」 one of the Deities declared.
Gu Qing Shan coldly scoffed: "The [Order] faction? They're nothing but a bunch of snobs, seeing that I'm only a new Deity, none of them paid any attention to me — — and you think I'll join them? "
The Deities exchanged glances and nodded.
According to the information they had, other than the Goddess of Life explaining some basic things to them at the start, the [Order] faction didn't pay any attention to this Earth Deity.
— — -and the [Order] faction truly behaved like that.
The God of Misfortune replied: 「 Congratulations on seeing the true colors of those snobs, but as you said just now, we'll have to see if you truly desire chaos or not 」
"How do we see it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 — — to see how many people you've killed, or how many worthy wars you've started 」 one of the Deities replied.
The God of Misfortune took out a silver ruler from his chest pocket.
「 This is the Ruler of White Bone, when used to measure the shadow of a Deity, it will be able to measure how many living beings the Deity has killed, as well as the state of war — — - we'll use it to differentiate between factions 」 the God of Misfortune explained.
The seven Deities stared closely at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan's expression was completely at ease as she casually spoke: "Come, I also want to see the extent of what I've done in the past"
The God of Misfortune placed the ruler on the ground.
「 The more people you kill, the shorter the ruler will become, making it very difficult to measure the length of your shadow; on the other hand, if you haven't killed any living beings at all, the ruler will become longer and longer. For example, the God of Life has never killed a living being, so this ruler will be able to measure her shadow 」
After saying so, he chanted an incantation in a low voice.
The Deities all looked at the ruler.
The ruler was gone!
— — -it really disappeared without a trace!
The Deities went silent, then turned to Gu Qing Shan.
"Ah? Where did it go? "
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
The God of Misfortune spoke after a bit of consideration: 「 It seems you were born to be a Deity of our [Chaotic World] faction, the number of living beings you've killed is about the same as the King of Hell 」
A ruler suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Did I pass?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 A Deity will not go against their Divine Duty, it seems you really are a killer 」 another Deity affectionately patted his shoulder.
"But I have a rather big problem right now" Gu Qing Shan scowled.
「 What is it? 」 the God of Misfortune asked.
「 My opponent, the opponent of the Dance of Death, I wonder which faction it belongs to 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
Since these Deities came to find me, they most likely went to find the Eternal Evader as well.
Sure enough, someone replied: 「 We've already contacted it, we won't let it join the [Order] faction 」
Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
The [Chaotic World] faction is so proactive, while the Deities of the [Order] faction are so cold …
Obviously, the [Order] faction is very confident in their own strength.
One side is anxious, the other side isn't.
From their attitude alone, the difference in strength between the two sides is clear.
Then …
Should I kill the God of Misfortune or not?
If I kill him, it's very likely that the scales of victory will tilt towards the [Order] faction.
Gu Qing Shan hesitated.
The God of Misfortune spoke up: 「 That opponent of yours has brought a bit of trouble to us … forget it, let's not talk about it for now. You, on the other hand, have something you need to do right now 」
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 Regardless of how many people you've killed outside, I'm the one who brought you into the [Chaotic World] faction, so half of your power of faith for the next 300 years will be given to me, and Gu Qing Shan will also have to listen to my commands in battle, understood? 」 the God of Misfortune replied.
"Is that the rule? Or is it just me? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 Every Deity that joins the [Chaotic World] faction is the same — — - this is to ensure that the strongest Deities have enough power to fight against the [Order] faction 」 another Deity explained.
Gu Qing Shan understood.
— — the [Chaotic World] faction really can't win against the [Order] faction.
No wonder the [Order] Deities ignored me and didn't try to recruit me.
Speaking of which, this [Chaotic World] faction's Deities are even worse than a pyramid scheme, and they want to use this method to change the world?
They're thinking too much.
Gu Qing Shan silently sighed, the doubts in his mind were easily answered.
— — -forget it, I'll just kill him.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the God of Misfortune and smiled brightly.
「 So that's how it is, I agree to listen to your commands 」
The Deities heard him say that.
