Chapter 723: Malicious Overtime

Bai Ge pulled back his staff. He seemed to want to attack Ash again. Several magic spirits emerged from the tip of the staff. They were like devout believers on a pilgrimage. They turned into a wisp of light smoke and wrapped around the staff. Layers of sharp edges accumulated to the tip of the palm, cutting the surrounding air into layers of cloud waves. The ultimate power was accumulated and exploded.

If his previous stab was a silent spring rain, then the next stab would be a summer thunderstorm. Everything it touched would be turned into powder!

The first stab pierced Ash's brain, and the second stab destroyed Ash's body!

But Bai Ge dispersed the power of the staff in the next moment and gave up the attack.

Because Weisser rushed over and snatched Ash away.

The round cicada also appeared behind Ash's head. It inhaled suddenly and bulged its abdomen, making a strange sound of puffing, as if it was singing in the water. At the same time, Ash's head returned to its original state, and the briefly interrupted consciousness returned to its loyal body, and his eyes regained their brilliance.

"You just died!" Weisser breathed a sigh of relief.

"I just died." Although Ash was a little scared, he was more confused.

There was no time to review his life and no chance to leave a last word. His proud combat experience and the sanctuary he trusted so much failed to buy him even a second of reaction time.

If you must say, he is like an elite character in a video game. He is powerful, advanced, and has many passive skills. He is capable of dealing with any character, but the attack of the white pigeon is like directly cutting off the power of the computer. He didn't even feel the pain, and he lost everything.

Fortunately, he has Yuanchan, and fortunately he has reached a tacit understanding with Yuanchan. Once he is attacked by a fatal attack, Yuanchan will actively cast "Three Seconds Cicada Hiding" to return him to the state three seconds ago!

Otherwise, he would really die!

"Go." Weisser summoned a fog door again and pushed Ash directly in. Ash knew that this was definitely not the time to be fussy. Every breath could be a turning point between life and death. Without any hesitation, he turned around and rushed to the fog door leading to the upper level.

Puff.

The sound of the flames lit up passed through their eardrums. It was clearly the 18th level of the Spiral of Silence, the sun was shining brightly, the sand was warmed by the sun, and everything was bright, but Ash and Weisser still felt that they were illuminated by the flames.

Not only their clothes or skin were illuminated, but even their bones, flesh, internal organs, and even their souls were painted with colors that did not belong to them.

When Ash touched the fog door, he found that he could not even put his fingertips in. He knew that the silver lamp would never trip him up, but he felt that he could not enter the fog door.

Because the color was wrong.

The place opposite the fog door was not painted with colors by the fire.

Ash suddenly remembered a game he often played, when walking on the street, only walking on squares of a certain color.

Now, he felt like he was trapped in a similar restriction.

He turned his head and saw that the hair of the passionate girl Fire Cat was burning like her personality. Every strand of her hair turned into flames, and every breath of the flame would give birth to a fire spirit, and then the spirit would merge into the flame to add fuel to the fire. Although her flame is small and not very bright, it is above all light, even the sun has to bow down to it!

The same idea came to the minds of the magicians: Fire Cat Dafa, also known as Knowing and Guarding Fire.

"Knowing infinite darkness, guarding limited light, for knowing and guarding fire." Even in battle, Fire Cat still wears a youthful smile: "I declare that no one is allowed to leave this place."

Knowing infinite darkness, guarding limited light, probably means that darkness is endless, but the area she illuminates can guard the Fire Cat, or the Knowing and Guarding Fire Spirit, the direct effect is to prevent all targets within the range from leaving the area illuminated by the fire!

Unlike the pure violence of the White Dove, the effect of the Fire Cat is restrictive!

But compared to the White Dove, the effect of the Fire Cat really pushed them to a dead end!

Whether it is Weisser or Ash, they all know that the Fog Gate is not the only way out, because Ash still has a trophy that even the Lord of Gods covets, the Thousand Wishes Heaven!

There is a wish center in Ash's soul. Even if Senluo explodes in the next second, he can immediately escape back to the Thousand Wishes Heaven in his physical body. No matter how the outside world changes, he will be in the heaven!

But the restriction of the Fire Cat directly prohibits this retreat! Ash immediately tried to activate the wish center, and the wish center also tried to pull Ash back to the Thousand Wishes Heaven, but his body and soul were as motionless as if they had eaten a weight!

This life-saving straw that is almost impossible to go wrong can't save his life now. The power of the gods is above everything else. Only the gods can fight against the gods. Even if Ash's wish center is already a high-level teleportation miracle, it is not a power with the gods as the core. At most, it is a little bit of the power of the wishing pool. How can it shake the professional level of the Fire Cat Cage?

Weisser immediately blocked in front of Ash, and Ash didn't care about being embarrassed, and almost hid behind Weisser. The only thing the three gods fear is Silver Lamp. If they don't use her as a shield, Ash will disappear in three seconds. The first two seconds are still exchanged for the remaining two "Three Seconds Cicada Hiding" of Yuanchan.

"You betrayed the Lord of Zhan?!" Weisser opened the sanctuary, sheltering Ash, and asked coldly: "Are you no longer the gods of the Lord of Zhan?"

"We didn't betray the Lord of Zhan." Bai Ge said calmly: "We carried out all the orders of the Lord of Zhan one by one, without any perfunctory. We fulfilled our duties and remained loyal to our Lord, without any thoughts of betrayal."

The fire cat nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, I am the guardian fire of the Lord Zhan, the manager of the secret domain 'lighthouse', the Lord Zhan is my only master, how can I betray the Lord Zhan?"

Although the gods may lie, but now they are all at loggerheads, and their expressions do not seem to be lying, which makes Ash and Weisser a little confused. Weisser asked: "But you let the Senluo people stay in the Senluo land, don't you want them to continue to be a burden to the Lord Zhan and accelerate the Lord Zhan's fall?"

"That's right." The fire cat tilted his head: "Heir, you summarized it very accurately!"

"So you still say that you didn't betray?" Ash couldn't help but say: "You want to kill the Lord Zhan!"

"No, no, we just hope that the Lord Zhan will die." The fire cat waved his hands repeatedly, "We didn't think of killing her."

The taciturn blue bird suddenly said: "We just hope that the Lord Zhan will die, and we didn't betray."

Weisser frowned, as if he still couldn't understand what kind of double standard logic this was. However, Ash finally reacted. He pressed Weisser's shoulder and whispered, "They are not magic spirits, but gods who can recognize themselves... Their relationship with Zhanzhu is like your relationship with Mercury Trojan!"

If we analyze it from the relationship between magic spirits and magicians, we will definitely not understand the logic of the actions of these three gods. After all, magic spirits and magicians share weal and woe. But if we analyze it from the perspective of workers, it will be much easier to understand. You curse your boss every day for not falling into the toilet and drowning, but it does not mean that you betray your boss!

As long as you efficiently complete every task assigned by your boss, you are a loyal employee of your boss. As for you spreading gossip about your boss in private, saying that he did not fulfill his promise, promised a salary increase but did not realize it, or reported the information of your boss's corruption to the board of directors... These are obviously not betrayal.

Bai Ge and others hope that Zhanzhu will die, but they did not violate Zhanzhu's orders, and most likely did not directly attack Zhanzhu. They are just attacking Senluo people and Yindeng, preventing Senluo people from leaving the country and preventing Yindeng from obtaining more shares of Dream Lord. These are harmful to Zhanzhu, but Zhanzhu did not say that they cannot do it!

Not saying, not saying means you can do it!

Just like when you complain about your boss being stupid, you know that your words will harm the reputation of your boss and even the company, but firstly, your boss didn't say that you can't say bad things about him, and secondly, you just want to complain, so you will do it. The same is true for Bai Ge and the others. They clearly know that they are accelerating the demise of Zhanzhu, or things that cannot accelerate the demise of Zhanzhu, so they don't do it.

One of the differences between gods and magic spirits is that gods are special lives with self-awareness and even desires, while magic spirits are just instinctive lives. In simple terms, gods are at least children above elementary school, and magic spirits are at most infants under one year old.

Infants are at your mercy, but children already have the ability to resist.

Bai Ge and the others are indeed taking advantage of loopholes, but the root of everything is still Senluo Zhanzhu. If Ash guessed correctly, Zhanzhu doesn't really care about Senluo people or even the heirs. The attitude of these three gods towards Yindeng is just to read Zhanzhu's message to her, which is equivalent to a messenger, not to "invite the young master to return to his position", so they dare to do it to Yindeng.

If the Lord of Zhan has no rules, Bai Ge and his people will not restrict themselves. To put it bluntly, even if Bai Ge and his people slaughtered the Senluo Kingdom, it would not be a big deal, just like your computer suddenly deleted the study materials you have treasured for many years, would you still smash the computer? What's more, Bai Ge and his people are protecting the Senluo people.

The most likely instruction left by the Lord of Zhan is to let the gods protect the Senluo people. But how could she know that one day, she would have to expel or even slaughter her own people in order to continue her life?

The current situation is similar to the Lord of Zhan's company preparing to go bankrupt because of the lack of funds, but the company is still operating a project with extremely high expenditures. If the project is not suspended, the capital chain will be completely broken. It just so happens that the Lord of Zhan can't interrupt the project himself. Now the project leader Yin Deng jumped out and said that he wanted to take people to change jobs. The three old employees of Bai Ge took the initiative to press Yin Deng back, not allowing her to end the project, and insisted on maintaining the project. It can be said to be malicious overtime.

"But why do you want the Lord of Zhan to die?" Weisser covered Ash step by step as she retreated. "Do you have hatred towards the Lord of Zhan?"

White Dove, Fire Cat and Blue Bird also approached step by step and surrounded them. White Dove asked, "What is hatred?"

"It means that you don't want to be with her, breathe the same air, and face the same sky."

"Then we don't have hatred towards the Lord of Zhan. We are happy to be with her."

"Then why do you want the Lord of Zhan to die?"

"Because we just want the Lord of Zhan to die." Fire Cat was very confused: "Does this need a reason?"

"Yes." Weisser asked, "Or do you have something you want to do? , but Master Zhan stopped you from doing it?"

Bluebird shook his head: "No."

"Wait." Yaxiu figured it out: "You...since when did you want Master Zhan to die?"

The gods looked at each other and said: "From the beginning."

"Is it from the beginning when you became Dafa, or from the beginning when you became gods?"

However, the gods' answer was beyond Yaxiu's expectations: "From the beginning when we became the gods of Master Zhan."

"Is it normal?" Fire Cat said: "Who wouldn't want their master to die?"

"It's not good to have a master." White Pigeon said: "The master should die."

"Die." Bluebird also nodded.

"I understand." Weisser murmured, "They are all regicides. They will normally carry out all the orders of the magician. Whenever they have the chance, they will constantly cause trouble for the magician until they kill the magician!"

"There is no complicated reason. They simply... cannot accept that they have become the tools of the Lord God since they were born!"

Yash originally thought that Bai Ge and the others had awakened their self-awareness, so they rebelled against Zhan Zhu in a gorgeous way, trying to regain their freedom. Although the results are similar, the motives are completely different. They have never thought about their future after regaining their freedom, nor have they been afraid of their fate after Zhan Zhu recovered.

They just want their master to die.

Yash and Weisser are not sure if the three of them are an exception, but it is very likely that they are. After all, it is impossible for Senluo Zhan Zhu to have only the three of them, but now only the three of them appear, indicating that the members of the 'Zhan Zhu Quick Death Group' are only the three who have ascended from the earth to the kingdom of heaven.

Other normal gods did not join Bai Ge.

Ash had previously praised the production chain of "magician → Dafa → spirit" for its many merits, but now it seems that this production line seems to have a problem with the yield rate.

They used to be magicians, inheriting the glory of their predecessors in the virtual realm. They existed to explore the truth and did not need to kneel down to anyone; they used to be Dafa, carrying the faith of hundreds of millions of people. They existed to realize their ideals, not to become a tool of a certain god.

Perhaps it was the experience of magicians and Dafa that made these ascended gods unable to accept their fate of being exploited by the gods and unable to accept themselves as inferior beings. They only wanted flexible employment, and they would bankrupt any company that asked them to work.
