It was actually quite rare for us to have a guest in our house. Under normal circumstances, not many people would visit our house. You should know how many unscientific fellows are gathered here. Any one of them would be enough for CCTV-10 to shoot over 40 episodes of science documentaries. Jingle would be seen flying around randomly. Anveena could pop out from any wall or television at any time. Mercury Lamp was only 92.3cm tall and would drift back and forth two meters above the ground. Alaya would even sleepwalk out from time to time to bask in the sun. Even if all of the aforementioned fellows with no common sense had learned to disguise themselves, we still had Classmate 123 who wore a full set of glittering heavy armor all year round. It would be very difficult for me to explain to the delivery man why there was a handsome ancient Greek man who looked like he weighed at least 200 pounds in my living room. Not to mention, this handsome ancient Greek man even had a halo of at least 30 lumens around him …
So, in order to avoid trouble, Sandora set up a spirit interference barrier around the house. Ordinary people, including the water and electricity collectors and the delivery man, would directly ignore this strange house that was basically looking down on the city's land price. Those who were allowed to approach the house were only a handful: Ding Ling, Lin Feng, Sally, and a few earthlings who knew about the Empire or were working for the Empire. For example, the werewolf William who almost tried to woo Ding Ling's Chinese countryside dog XO due to the influence of the Bloody Moon. These people coming to visit our house shouldn't be enough for Shallow Shallow to make a fuss and call them "important guests", right?
I carried the smiling puppet to the living room. I noticed that the guest was standing in front of the large clock by the door, looking at the pendulum in a daze. Since his back was facing the stairs, I couldn't tell who he was. I could only confirm that he was a young male who was less than 1.8 meters tall. He was wearing ordinary white casual clothes. He had short black hair and a calm demeanor. His pants were bought from a street stall, and he didn't even remove the logo. What surprised me was actually something else: The bunch of lawless fellows in the house, including Icetis, were all sitting on the sofa without panting. They looked so obedient that it didn't conform to the natural order. This made me feel unprecedented admiration for the unknown visitor.
Mercury Lamp was hugging my head. She was in an unprecedentedly good mood. She was even using a strange tone to sing a modified nursery rhyme. When she saw that there was an unknown person in her house, she was instantly displeased. She shouted, "Hey! The master of the house was here! Who are you? Who are you! Who the hell are you? Wow … "
In the end, there was a scream, and Mercury Lamp bit her tongue.
The young man in white casual clothes turned his head and waved at me with a bright smile. He pointed at the big clock behind him and said, "Hey, I might have to bother you for a while. This clock of yours is quite interesting. In the mortal world, they always clearly mark the short periods of time that they don't use in their daily lives. Take this second hand for example. A while ago, Fayr found me a similar one. She found a bunch of clocks from an unknown world and gave them to people one by one … "
I gaped at the 'young man' who was smiling as though he was a guest at a friend's house. He was commenting on the decorations in the living room. My jaw was probably touching the ground. I almost tripped and fell down the stairs. "Huh?! Father God?! Why are you … "
"Cough, don't call me by my title. Just call me Xing Chen."
The 'young man' in white waved at me. "It's rare that I have the time to take a break. I thought that I should come to your world to take a look. After all, you have come to my house two or three times. I haven't paid you a visit yet. It's quite embarrassing …"
That's right. You didn't see wrongly and I didn't see wrongly. The 'young man' in front of me who was wearing a pair of street stall pants with a little chives on the corner of his mouth was none other than … Father God!!
Father God of Star Region!
No wonder Shallow Shallow, who was so mentally strong that she could be used for deep-sea fishing, could exclaim in surprise. This guest … was a little too much. No wonder the gang of five Protoss cops were sitting obediently on the sofa. Even the two clowns, Icetis and Elson, had become obedient. They had met their superior. This was probably the effect of me and Sandora going to Raven 001's dorm for a while.
"Ugh, Xing Chen. Alright, Xing Chen." I called Father God's name awkwardly. I reckoned that there were only a few intelligent beings in the entire void who dared to call him by his name. Looking at his attire that was completely earthlike, I couldn't wrap my head around it. "How did you get here?"
Father God grinned. "I got off at the old long-distance bus station, took the suburban line to the bus station, took the subway to the shopping center on Route 26, crossed the pedestrian bridge, and took a taxi from the entrance of the old park. The last part was on foot. I realized that if I told the taxi driver the address of your house, he would only understand that it was at the junction of the street. This might be Sandora's doing?"
Hearing that, I immediately suspected that Father God had been living in this area since 1990. Was he just messing with me?
In the end, after confirming it, Father God really didn't have any intention of messing with me. He came here just like that. Of course, his first stop wasn't the old long-distance bus station. Before coming to my house, he went to the wrong coordinates and circled around M City, which was more than 230 kilometers away. In the end, with the help of a local ticket scalper, he bought a bus ticket to K City. The old man, who was "omniscient and omnipotent", easily found the smoothest route. He was like an old citizen who had lived in this city for ten years. He even gave up his seat to an old man on Route 26. Even though the old man's age wasn't that much longer than Father God needed to take a nap. His clothes were directly copied from a third-year student on Earth before he entered this world. He should have been proud of his entire life. No wonder he exuded an air of foolishness from top to bottom. Alright, Gods above, I shouldn't judge the most ferocious being in the void that way, even though he was wearing a branded casual outfit that cost 95 RMB and had chives on his lips …
Finally, Father God excitedly showed me something: the bus ticket he had used to come here.
"A ticket scalper sold it to me. He was a very interesting guy. I didn't expose him." Father God smiled gently.
White sweat began to appear on my forehead. This long-distance bus ticket had a spectral imprint on the bottom left corner that couldn't be recognized by the naked eye. It was abbreviated with two letters: XL.
If I had glasses, I would have taken them off at this moment. If I had a pencil, I would have thrown it on the military map. However, I didn't have either. Thus, I silently connected to the mental link and directly called the Shadow City's Town Security. "Ling Meng."
"Wow!" The girl in front of me seemed to be sleeping. It was obvious that she had suddenly woken up from her sleep and exclaimed. I could even imagine the scene of her jumping out of bed with an afro. "Boss?"
"Did Sicarro escape to M City recently?"
"… I think so. I haven't seen him in the city recently."
"… Go catch him and shoot him for five minutes. He won't die anyway …"
"Ah?" Ling Meng was shocked.
"He sold the bus ticket to Father God!"
Then, I heard a commotion on the other side of the mental link. Ling Meng quickly gathered her accomplices to cross the city to check the water meter.
I smiled awkwardly. It was obvious that no matter how good Sicarro's disguise was, it was impossible to hide from Father God's eyes. That black suit couldn't even fool an idiot like Nima Ebisu. However, Father God didn't seem angry at all. He didn't mind that he had spent an extra 20 yuan to buy a high-priced ticket.
"If you line up, you can only buy a ticket for tomorrow. I was stuck in a traffic jam on the highway for two hours." Father God smiled amiably. "The mortals here are really interesting. They seem to like to group up and trap themselves in one place, then complain about the whole world."
"It's all the fault of the long vacation. It's all the fault of the long vacation." I wiped off my sweat and let Father God take a seat. I called out to Anveena to prepare tea. However, I didn't see the little ghost appear after calling out twice. In the end, I saw a white ball of light that had curled up into a small ball in the corner. It trembled and complained to me, "Mas … Master, it's so scary. I feel like I'll be purified if I get close …"
Alright, it seemed like I couldn't count on the ghost. Although Father God really wouldn't do anything to such a "little animal," Anveena seemed to be quite afraid of such a high-ranking officer. Fortunately, Chestnut had already recovered from her shock and remembered to pour a glass of water. Father God, who had traveled thousands of miles from the God Realm for eight hours, finally had his first sip of cold water at my house.
… Compared to the reception I received when I went to the God Realm, I felt that I desperately wished there was a crack under my feet that I could crawl into and go into seclusion for more than 2,300 years.
"Chen, do you know? This is the first time I've seen Father God come out to visit like this." Icetis saw that Father God was studying the patterns on the coffee table and whispered secretly, "Do you know how many miracles he has created along the way?"
I expressed my confusion. Although it was quite shocking for Father God to visit, what did this have to do with miracles?
In the end, when Icetis explained, I was completely shocked.
My jaw dropped. I suddenly understood why God Father never left the Divine Realm. As an unprecedentedly powerful source of Void power, his mere existence was enough to change everything in the world on a large scale. Even now when he was suppressing his own power, his actions still created small information vortexes. Actually, I shouldn't have been surprised about this, because I seemed to have such a characteristic as well: Void creatures would constantly interfere with information in their surroundings, causing the probability of various events happening around them to fluctuate at a strange frequency. Shallow Shallow and my sister obtaining power, the Old Empire being activated in some unknown corner of the world. All of these could basically be attributed to my Void creature physique — at least, that was the answer that Tawil had come up with when he created a mathematical model.
Alright, in the past, I had never seriously thought about the significance of my physique. Now, God Father showed me a vivid example: Just by standing there, you become the axis of the world's rotation.
Icetis seemed to have seen through my thoughts and said softly, "You have only just awakened, but you are already a point of contention for information. Perhaps when you become more powerful, you should look for God Father to learn a thing or two about how to control your own power. You Void creatures are too unreasonable."
"I am more concerned about the impact that God Father has caused along the way. There are at least tens of thousands of people coming from the neighboring city every day, and at least half of them are traveling along the long-distance route. If all of them were to live until the next millennium, it would be enough for all the anthropologists in the world to commit suicide over sixty thousand times. Also, how do you expect CCTV10 to explain to everyone that an old man who crossed the Western Pacific Ocean at the age of a hundred years old!"
Icetis was dumbfounded. It was obvious that she hadn't thought of this at all.
God Father looked at the two of us with a smile. I suddenly realized: It seems like there is no meaning in me speaking so softly to Icetis. We are sitting beside the strongest upright creature in the entire Void!
"Don't worry, this child is just bluffing." God Father glanced at Icetis. "There will be some impact, but I have already eliminated it. Also, there won't be any consequences even if I don't deal with it. Icetis, explain it to me."
Sister Bing stuck out her tongue and smiled awkwardly at me. "The path to God is a very strict cultivation term. For a mortal to walk the path to God, they need to repeat the details of this path 100%. This includes going to the same ticket scalper at the square of the train station at 7: 30 am every year to buy an increased price long-distance ticket. Also, they have to be stuck in a traffic jam on the highway for two hours. Of course, an old man who crossed the ocean at the age of a hundred years old is inconceivable, but it isn't strange for him to only be a hundred years old. I think that a normal old man from Earth wouldn't specially go for a trip to the Western Pacific Ocean on his hundredth birthday. As for the leek box, do you think that there would be anyone on Earth who would dare to raise a leek box when worshiping a God? "
I was dumbfounded once again. Then, I suddenly reacted and looked at God Father. "… Did we deviate from the topic of our discussion? What I wanted to ask is, why are you here? "
"I discovered a crack in the void. A large amount of information gathered in the territory of the Fallen Apostle for an instant. Then, something came to you. This made me curious. My intuition told me that I should come and take a look. Of course, another reason is that I am indeed very interested in your world. Icetis and Jingle like this mortal world very much. Their respective guardians are rather disheartened by this. "
I got it. In the end, God Father had discovered traces of Xiaoxue's arrival. Unsurprisingly, that girl had borrowed the hands of the Fallen Apostle to rewrite a shocking amount of information in order to create her projection on the other side of the Void Cataclysm. With such a huge commotion, even the weak New Empire had found out about it. There was no reason why God Father hadn't noticed it. I should be the one curious that he had only just arrived.
Of course, I didn't expect that Xiaoxue would cause such a huge commotion. Just how much effort did the Fallen Apostle put in to create a Void Creature to deceive others, creating a rift in the Void?
"Xiaoxue! Xiaoxue! " I craned my neck and shouted at the second floor. Xiaoxue wasn't in the living room. She was probably tidying up in her room. She had brought with her countless daily necessities, including her toothbrush cup and lucky pillow. She hadn't tidied up properly last night. Now that she had the time, she went back to tidy up. Lin Xue wasn't around either. I felt that it was highly likely that Xiaoxue had dragged her to tidy up the room. This was the responsibility of a mother.
Even though Xiaoxue was already seventeen and a half years old.
"What are you doing, Dad? I'm looking for my lucky nail clipper. That was a birthday present you gave me when I was six years old." Xiaoxue's clear and cheerful voice came from the staircase. Then, she poked half her head out and saw the situation in the living room. She immediately exclaimed, "Ah! Second Uncle! Why are you here? "
I noticed that God Father raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Xiaoxue. It was obvious that he wasn't just surprised. Then, he smiled and stood up. "Let me guess. You are just a shadow. Furthermore, your main body isn't at this point in time … What a strange method of information entanglement. Is this child the reason for the crack in the void?"
"Xiaoxue, my daughter. You are such a troublemaker." I scratched my head embarrassedly and called out to the strange girl, Xiaoxue Chen. That girl slid down from the armrest. When she landed, she even spun three and a half times in the air. Finally, she stepped on Rhododendron Spp.'s tail …
The pitiful vixen let out a cry and hid under the coffee table, never to come out again.
"Second Uncle, your eyes are really sharp. Have you eaten?"
"This is the first time I've seen someone greet God Father like this in my entire life," Icetis muttered softly.
God Father nodded. "Yes, I have. The food in this world is very interesting. Can you tell me about your background? "
I realized that after leaving the God Realm, God Father had become exceptionally amiable and approachable. Even the way he spoke was abnormally amiable. Although he had always been gentle, this change was still very novel. However, Xiaoxue didn't seem surprised at all. It was as if she had always spoken to God Father like this since she was young. She looked around and noticed that there were no more chairs left. (It was likely that the rose girls had taken away the castle. They were especially childish these two days.) Thus, she casually sat on my lap. "That's a long story. At first, it was a dark and windy night. The cold wind was blowing, and there was no light from the sun or moon. In the dark war laboratory, two geniuses met together … This story is quite long. Second Uncle, why don't I tell you next time?"
"It's fine. I don't mind the time." God Father chuckled.
Xiaoxue's face fell. She snuggled into my embrace. "Then … Second Uncle, if I tell you that I opened a hole in the void, you won't beat me up, right?"
