Chapter 241: Is Misfortune in Old Age a Curse?
Gu Meng took out a pure gold pocket watch that Xiao Ke would probably envy, and clicked it open. A pleasant sound popped out. Even without looking, he knew the time was just right - he wore the watch just for decoration, and clicked it open just for fun - he raised his hand and knocked on the oak door opposite the box.
The person in the box was of course Bernadette, and the two agreed to meet at this time.
If it was Xiao Ke in the original novel or the protagonist of other fan fictions, meeting with high-sequence characters at this stage of the plot would probably use some survival tactics.
But as the protagonist of a semi-invincible novel, Gu Meng can now beat the True God with a punch with a high probability. He can be said to be "I am completely invincible in the world, and the True God can be exchanged for two in one", so of course there is nothing to be afraid of -
Although he is only using a clone to meet now.
But it is instinctive for the Secret Gu Meng to use a trumpet, just like the Comprehensive Martial Arts Gu Meng who does everything recklessly. In fact, this is not survival, the big guys in this world all use trumpets.
The Fool, the Goddess, and the Mother Goddess have all done it. How can it be called survival for scholars?
"Come in." Bernadette's voice came from the box.
Gu Meng, who was already on the road to omnipotence, did not use any extraordinary abilities, but walked through the door and went in.
The first thing that caught his eyes was a large area of gold, like ripe wheat ears in autumn. The lines on the wall matched the gold with a visual difference effect, forming an ocean with waves rising and falling.
In the center, the chestnut-haired woman sitting at the top of the dining table was wearing an Intis-style women's white shirt. She sat there quietly, her long chestnut hair naturally draped down, and her straight eyebrows were just right. She actually had the temperament of a professional woman on Earth, and she was the kind who had been in a high position for a long time. She was the mysterious queen-Bernadette.
I have to say that Roselle's eldest niece is really beautiful, and her temperament is not incompatible with this era, but it should be said that there is a bit of harmony in the harmony... In Chinese, it is "out of the world".
If charm can be converted into specific attributes, although it cannot be compared with Gu Meng himself, who has assimilated the Hehuan old demon and usually has to lower his presence and restrain his charm, it is already the ultimate in the world.
Among the "normal women" that Gu Meng often contacts in this world (that is, not including abnormal women such as the mother goddess, the mother tree witch and Gu Meng's feminized version), perhaps only Audrey can be compared with her, but the beauty of the two is of course different.
Envy, really envy Lao Huang for having such a daughter, and she is quite filial, not the filial piety of the big show, but the real filial piety. Gu Meng had talked to her with other clones before. Even though Roselle was ominous in his later years and did a lot of absurd things, he was deserted by everyone, and Bernadette really wanted to find her father now.
Very good, woman, you have successfully attracted my attention (fog).
Just admiration, just admiration, Gu Meng is not a Hehuan old demon.
A friend's daughter should not be bullied.
What? He and Lao Huang don't know each other, but they have been friends for a long time. In essence, they are still strangers, so it's okay (fog*2).
Gu Meng nodded and gestured to Bernadette, took off his hat, and sat opposite her.
"What did you ask me out for this time? When Cadrija notified me, she complained to me that next time the Whitebeard wanted to find her, he could use a more civilized way, without directly vibrating the space to stop her ship. She almost thought that Whitebeard wanted to take her as a daughter and start a war... Wait, could it be that the time you mentioned before has come?"
Gu Meng had met Bernadette several times before. For a moment, because of Gu Meng's thinking mode and some of the unique brain circuits and details of the Chinese traversers on Earth, Bernadette even thought that Gu Meng was her father who changed his appearance to tease her.
The mysterious queen's heart is actually not easy to read, but Gu Meng can know what others are thinking without reading their minds. After guessing this with the intuition of the fool, Gu Meng used a lot of willpower to control the temptation to say "call daddy", and did not admit it, but directly denied it.
"No, you guessed wrong, I am not your father, and I have no sexual interest in being your father."
This is a lie.
When Gu Meng replied like this, Bernadette blushed.
As for the "opportunity" she was talking about now, that is, the opportunity to save her father, Old Huang, Gu Meng had expressed this intention before, but also said that the time had not come yet, so Bernadette began to speculate what the relationship between Gu Meng and Roselle was, and why he wanted to save him...
In fact, there was really no relationship. Even the identity of the fellow countryman of the time traveler was not strictly speaking the same earth. Gu Meng simply wanted to save him.
After coming to this era, although Roselle spent some time, he did promote the progress of the times. Moreover, Gu Meng personally thought that he did a good job except for the relationship between men and women, and he deserved the title of the emperor. Plagiarism was not a flaw. It was natural for the time traveler to do so.
How can the time traveler's work be called plagiarism? That's called the carrier of culture...right?
If the ancient sun god had not split into Adam and the fallen creator, Gu Meng would have wanted to save him. In any case, He had the heart to save the world and did improve the status of mankind. He was greater than Huang Tao. It's a pity that it has come to this point now...
Adam? I don't want to help him integrate, because that would make his thoughts unclear and not good for his mental state. Gu Meng has a clear self-awareness of "I am the overall situation" and rarely does things that make him unhappy. He is very afraid that if he goes crazy, the world will be hopeless.
He is not sure if he will directly destroy the world if he goes crazy...
Then resurrect the ancient sun god with the real creator as the main body? I don't think it's necessary. I don't really want to make money in the future.
Although after becoming a god in this world, there is no strict distinction between good and evil. The true Creator is a madman, a victim, and a symbol. He does not need to bear all responsibility rationally. The pot should be thrown to God, and there is still wind at the bottom. Zhibai, there are a lot of world settings in the past, and in the future there will be people who will do evil things with their own hands in Aurora, but Gu Meng does things based on his feelings and does not need logic.
Putting this matter aside, Gu Meng said: "No, the time has not come yet. As you can see, I am just a clone, and my body is still at the end of the world... If my body can take out my hand, I will naturally not save your father." It’s difficult, but it’s a pity that I still have important things to do, and you know that I can’t come back.”
Bernadette had discussed this issue with Gu Meng before. Gu Meng's words were vague, but in summary it was that the time had not come yet, and it was hinted that Russell's problem had reached a level that even a normal true god could not solve.
In today's world, the only people who can save Russell are the Fool of the future, the true Creator of the past, and him now, but he can't spare his efforts now.
Bernadette nodded and expressed her understanding. Gu Meng's previous pretense had been relatively successful, including various abilities that were incredible and difficult to understand how he could do it. She believed that Gu Meng's personality and strength had already He has arrived in the divine realm, and there are terrifying amounts of authority...
Gu Meng was chatting and laughing with the goddess, and even more so with Bernadette. How the future Huang Jiajia looked at the Fool, the current Huang Beibei looked at Gu Meng.
She told Gu Meng that she could save people but she didn't have time right now, and she didn't directly express too much doubt. Of course, what she was thinking was another matter. She probably thought that maybe other true gods could do it, but they just had to pay a price. , and don’t want to save.
As we all know, Steam Girl, who was friendly with Russell, had already fallen out with him.
And this is what Gu Meng admires most about Russell.
Russell's overall values are that of a very classic Chinese time traveler, Long Aotian, who has no fear of gods.
After promoting the Industrial Revolution, he became the strongest supporter of the Church of Steam and Machinery and the greatest support of the God of Steam and Machinery.
Both the church and the God of Steam and Machinery believe that Russell is their most powerful ally, the Holy King of Machinery in the world.
So in order to express her gratitude and consolidate the relationship, Steam Girl gave the Russell family an angel.
The true God molded his soul, and the church prepared for him the easiest, most magnanimous, most successful and most noble future.
The Bonova created by the gods is indifferent, distant, pious and powerful. He is a perfect golden human, more like a god than Russell, who has become an angel.
Zaratul was congratulating, Matilda was grateful, and even Bernadette, who was closest to her, only felt a little regretful.
Only Russell didn't accept it.
Everyone marveled that God gave him an angel. What a divine grace it was!
Only Russell felt that the gods had taken away a son from him.
Russell has a very indifferent view of power and wealth. As a time traveler, he has a game attitude towards many things, and by carrying the products of another civilization, everything comes too easily, reputation, honor, power, Money, social value, he is the protagonist of the era, he is the man who has everything.
But there is one thing that is not a game, but real, and that is home.
After finding out that he couldn't go back, his family was Russell's only concern.
After Huang Beibei was born, Russell has changed a lot.
He began to get closer to life, love his family, and try to understand the world with his own daughter.
He no longer acts arbitrarily, he has an anchor and a weakness, which is also his reverse scale.
So, when the steam girl who didn't understand people's hearts took away his child...
His choice is a choice of human courage.
…
"Then why are you looking for me this time? Since you are still at the end of the world and can't make a move."
"I have two things coming to you...both about your father."
"What's up?"
"The first thing, where to start... You probably also sensed the abnormality that has appeared in Backlund recently, right?"
"Indeed, as you said, it should be related to George III." Bernadette nodded slowly.
Gu Meng had also hinted at it before, provided some intelligence, and coupled with her own investigation... Bernadette had guessed that at least angel-level forces were setting up the conspiracy, and there were black hands promoting the war. The Loen royal family, especially George III, Very suspicious...
The most dangerous situation was that she had associated the behavior of George III with the abnormal behavior of her father in his later years. She even suspected that it might be related to the Black Emperor, but this guess was too high-end and she was not sure.
On the other hand, she is still a Sequence 3 of the Mystery Path, and she has been preparing for the ritual for a long time. She is a Sequence 2 Sage of the Mystic. If she wants to be promoted, she needs to prevent a disaster involving high-level power. Bernadette I also want to try to find opportunities during this period.
"The water here is very deep, but the areas involved are only the rituals of becoming gods and the game of true gods... If you delve deeper, it will still involve some topics that you should not know, but there is no risk in letting me tell you. , I can make it clearer.”
Bernadette said nothing and began to use various anti-pollution abilities. Fortunately, she had already arranged them before Gu Meng came, so it was easier to operate now.
She once thought that she was already very powerful in the human world, one step away from an angel, and had a zero-level sealed object. She was also cautious in her actions and had many methods, so she had nothing to fear. Until Gu Meng appeared and revealed some random information, she almost let her down. She couldn't stand it.
"Well, it's a good habit to stay vigilant." Gu Meng nodded in approval.
“In this world, besides being weak and not having enough strength, what will destroy people is arrogance.”
"Even if my power reaches my level, there are still things that I can't do."
At this point, Gu Meng sighed again.
This made Bernadette wonder whether this mysterious, great being who seemed to have the power of time had any regrets that he could not change?
Well, actually no, Gu Meng just felt that he was a little too stubborn and a little embarrassed.
There are two villains fighting in my mind. One of them said that he should jump out now. He is already so strong anyway. Which time traveler has such a strong power and is still so stubborn... Oh, those Gou Dao flow, Changsheng flow, and Behind the scenes flow time travel Except for those, ah, is it the same for Old Demon Han...
Forget it, it's normal for the novel's protagonist to be reckless...but the real gods that you usually don't like are all working, so how can you not like them? Miscellaneous fish~miscellaneous fish~
Another villain said, you are the greatest hope of this world. As the protagonist of the invincible novel, you are more of a savior than Xiao Ke. Who else can save the world than me? You are electricity, you are light, you are the only myth. You can't have any accidents. There are so many unbeatable alien gods around this planet staring at you. It's up to you to save the entire world in the future, but you still need to be patient...
The latter convinced Gu Meng that there was actually nothing that needed to be tolerated. Gu Meng was now quite comfortable making trouble.
The idea of "I am invincible within the barrier, at least multiple true gods need to take action to kill me. I will leave the secret state first and come out in my true form in the human world" may just be a crazy impulse in my heart.
In fact, in this crazy world, using a clone will only make it safer. There is nothing wrong with it. Gu Meng is not prepared to let his impulsive thoughts go, but restrains himself.
...It is still not powerful enough. He does not require the power of the original creator now. As long as he has the power of the pillar level, it is completely beyond the limit. In this era when the barrier has not completely faded, let alone the pillar, it is enough to have the old days. .
After all, the states of the Outer Gods are getting worse than the last, and few of them are relatively complete. As the former three pillars, the Mother Goddess almost killed her when the boss and the second child fought, and she is now in extremely poor condition.
He had a hunch that after he really added some points to become a god, his actual essence would naturally be regarded as the old one, probably still very strong. After all, he already has so many paths, and the chaotic source matter that is now just a prototype will be more powerful by then. Maturity may be stronger than a pillar. The day is not far away, and then everything can be suppressed.
"I also hope that you'd better not underestimate any unknown existence, even if you are the party that seems to have stronger power. You have to know that some hidden existences will behave very badly and appear harmless. Only when you look for them Suddenly revealing their true colors... Some spirits may appear ordinary on the surface, but in fact they may be evil gods."
Bernadette felt that Gu Meng seemed to be tapping her, but she didn't react for a moment.
After all, who would have thought that the one who stole the Black Emperor's card before was just a "rogue" Extraordinary who used some tricks, but under the vest, he was actually a fool?
Normal evil gods also have a sense of shame. Even if the vest is not another evil god or a hidden existence, at least it should be an angel, or at least a demigod or an obviously abnormal earthly great man. The feeling of that kind of existence is completely different.
The temperament is just like Klein who is holding the Jade Record now, or the prophet, great sage, seer, great inventor, and Gu Meng in front of Bernadette.
"Forget it, let's get back to the topic. You still remember the person I told you before who has something to say, right? That person has written a script for thousands of years and arranged it in advance to be launched in the near future. That means you also have The disaster involving high-level power was also part of his plan. He wanted to become a god in the ceremony. Well, on the surface, it was just a god. If you want to prevent this disaster, I can help you. "
"I see... It's not necessary. This kind of thing is obviously not something I can stop."
It's just that he became a god... Bernadette was a little speechless. The topic of this forced chat was too high, which made it feel like he was pushing too hard.
But considering that this mysterious great being often doesn’t even look down on the true gods when speaking, and there is a lot of contempt in his words. He said, "I laugh at these true gods because they are not smart enough. After all, they are just little gods in the world." It feels normal. .
Moreover, he had previously hinted that his father, Russell, had jumped to the next level in his later years and had become a Sequence 0 true god, the Black Emperor. He was only in poor condition, but he was indeed a god.
Thinking of his father, the great but often inconspicuous guy in his memory, has become a god, and he feels that... the distance between gods and humans is not that far away.
"Well, are you giving up so soon... Indeed, no matter how hard you give up, preventing him from becoming a god is much more troublesome than preventing other people from becoming gods. It may still be too difficult for you. You know, this person is one of the true gods. The sworn enemy of the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom. These true gods cannot stop them even if they want to. He is also the fallen creator among the evil gods..."
There were more and more black lines on Bernadette's head, and a familiar feeling began.
This person would suddenly reveal a lot of shocking information, and many topics were on the verge of danger. After hearing some things, she had to brainwash and seal herself to prevent her from leaving his side or his protection. Because this knowledge will end in death, this is what he restrained himself from.
According to Gu Meng, as a mysterious queen, a big shot in the mysterious world, a top demigod, and a half-step angel with a zero-level sealed object, she is not qualified to listen to some of the more dangerous taboo knowledge, at least to the level of an angel. This kind of thing can only be heard from the level of gods.
"Ah, I have regained some strength recently. I can speak more clearly. Do you want to listen? I think it should be okay."
Bernadette didn't try to stop him. In fact, while she felt so dangerous, she also wanted to listen.
Since Gu Meng said there was no danger, then believe him. Anyway, if he really wanted to murder and contaminate her, it should have been done when they first met. At that time, she thought this guy was at most an angel, and it was not certain that he would actually fight. Who could have thought that he could be so strong if he could defeat him.
"This person is one and the same with the fallen Creator. They are both part of the ancient sun god of the third era. You can simply understand the concept as a clone, the resurrected back-up hand of the true god, or the resurrected evil spirit, and those three gods are all him The King of Angels below, the ancient Sun God, successfully observed the first blasphemous stone tablet and cracked the mystery of the sequence..."
As Gu Meng said, he waved "Give me the Piaopiao Fist" several times, forcibly raising her status temporarily in a way that Bernadette could not understand.
At the same time, a strange compound power of "hidden storm" surged in this room, forming the [Wind King Barrier].
The inside and outside are cut off, the source of matter is projected, and it has become the realm of the boxing champion.
Bernadette felt the power of the great god and secretly sighed that what he said was right. It seemed that he had indeed regained some power. She felt that the power was more majestic than the last time she saw him.
This power, as long as it exists, is ever-changing. Just a hint of aura and domineering thoughts made her feel sore all over with the zero-level sealed object in her body.
I can't think of any resistance, I just want to surrender to the throne.
What a great existence this is. What appears in front of us must be just the remnants of human nature, and his true form must be a great god that cannot be fathomed by human intelligence.
"After the ancient sun god understood this knowledge, he completely transformed the path of the ancient gods, and gradually moved further and further away from the sequence. He took back the power of the five paths of omniscience and omnipotence, and defeated many ancient gods. The true god of the world is by no means a combination of him. The enemy...but, for some reasons that you'd better not know, He also...You can simply understand it as pollution. In fact, this is not accurate. It may be more appropriate to use recovery and confrontation..."
Gu Meng said and punched Bernadette several times in a row.
Bernadette felt uncomfortable with the swelling in her body, and her soul felt as light as flying. At the same time, her mind was empty as she was impacted by Gu Meng's heavenly wisdom...
Strange knowledge seems to be pouring in. In short, it is a magical experience, but quite comfortable...
Can't think too much...can't think too much...
"Similar to how your father was polluted in his later years...maybe our clothes...are prone to bad luck in his later years."
Bernadette keenly remembered the half of the word that Gu Meng didn't finish and used to refer to the time traveler.
So they are all the same kind of people?
This group includes her father, the ancient sun god, the mysterious man in front of her, and maybe the Fool too?
The ancient sun god was so powerful and had more power than all the current gods, but now he has fallen, leaving only the remnants of the evil god like the True Creator...
As a resurrected ancient god, The Fool lost his power in ancient times because of his unlucky old age. He has to wait until the "future" to regain his power?
Is the mysterious man in front of him unable to move because of his ominous old age?
Is a bad old age a curse?
What exactly happened to his father?
…
