When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 454: Slaughter of Gods
Soon, Zhuge Jun actually found evidence of the existence of the Moon School.

In fact, the production team did not hide the information deliberately. The relevant information can be found in several places, such as the large library where Zhuge Jun had worked hard to map the map before and the academy of the Star School.

The Moon School was originally derived from these schools, so in similar places, one can also see some traces of the Moon School's research.

After some searching, Zhuge Jun actually found the "Invitation Letter from the Moon School" in a dark room on the bottom floor of the library.

This invitation letter is very special. On the surface, it is just a letter with sealing wax printed on it. However, when you take this letter to a special area on the outskirts of Charlton, you can lie down and enter a dream, and come to the special space where the Moon School is located.

From the information collected previously, it can be seen that the ancient god Mel, whom the Moon School believes in, possesses the power of the mind, so he can create illusions and pull a large number of humans into them.

The flesh and blood constructs created by the Eternal School, and the incomplete heart of the ancient god that was eventually produced, actually originated from Mel's divine power.

The Moon School is located in a special fantasy space. There are not only members of the Moon School, but also various extremely terrifying monsters controlled by Mel.

These monsters are a bit like the monsters in some psychological horror games, often full of metaphors and symbols. For example, they seem to have a certain human form, but have a bloated and terrifying head and walk in a weird posture; or they are giants with huge conical iron heads and full of tyrannical power, etc.

After defeating or avoiding these monsters, Zhuge Jun rang three large bells in different locations in this illusion. Then, under the sound of the bells, the smoke covering the illusion gradually dissipated.

The boss battle with the ancient god takes place in a stunningly beautiful setting.

The originally dark and terrifying scene suddenly changed in the core area inside, with green grass, blooming flowers, curling smoke and slowly rotating windmills.

If you only look at this scene, it can be said to be an idyllic scene.

Many members of the Moon School gathered here, their faces filled with happy yet weird smiles. They were either singing and dancing, or lying happily in rocking chairs looking at the huge and bright moon in the sky.

Zhuge Jun simply wielded his butcher knife and chopped off all the members of the Moon School.

Although these dancing members of the Moon School would fight back angrily after being attacked, it was obvious that such counterattacks were too weak, their movements were stiff and slow, and they did not have powerful weapons in their hands.

The only slightly threatening move is to try to control Zhuge Jun's mind through roaring and howling, but this move has a long pre-swing, large movements, and will be interrupted by just a touch, so it can't actually pose much of a threat.

Of course, if all the monsters present released this move at the same time, Zhuge Jun would still die on the spot.

However, these members of the Moon School were obviously immersed in their own world. There was no clear hatred linkage mechanism between them. Even if a member was being hacked around them, they remained indifferent.

So, Zhuge Jun killed all the members of the Moon School here.

The bright moon above turned blood red as more and more members of the Moon School died. Finally, the huge moon began to descend and get closer to Zhuge Jun.

Finally, the ancient god Meir appeared.

It was another difficult battle. Although Zhuge Jun was a veteran, Mel had a special move that could control the mind of the game character. Once controlled, the character would die instantly and could only start over.

However, Zhuge Jun noticed one thing, there were no gas lamps in this illusion.

After the character dies in this scene, he is reborn at the entrance of the illusion, and all the members of the School of the Moon who have been killed before will also be resurrected.

However, this does not affect the challenge to the boss again, because the moon is already in a blood moon state at this time.

Originally, the purpose of killing these members of the Moon School was just to start the boss battle. However, now that the boss battle has started, even if these school members are not killed, you can directly fight the ancient god Meier.

Although these members of the Moon School will go crazy during the battle, they will only go crazy on the spot and will not really have any impact on the players in the fierce battle.

After more than an hour of fierce fighting, Zhuge Jun finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the big words "Gods have been slaughtered" appearing on the screen.

"Huh, it's finally done!

"Don't mention it, it's quite difficult!"

In fact, Zhuge Jun has mastered a lot of the game's mechanics, especially his understanding of GP. Even so, it still took him more than an hour to kill the boss, which shows that the boss is indeed difficult.

It is the standard late-stage boss difficulty of "Blood of Lies".

This time, what Zhuge Jun got was no longer a broken Heart of God, but a complete Heart of God. From the description of the item, it can be clearly seen that this is the heart of the ancient god Mel, and it also represents the "authority of the mind" originally held by the ancient god.

"So that's how it is, then everything makes sense!

"I'm going to fight the final boss now, this should be a happy ending!"

Zhuge Jun originally had some guesses, but none of them could be verified. Now that he has opened up this hidden map, and through the information collected from this place, many of the original puzzles have been answered.

The change in the "resurrection" mechanism plays a key role in solving the puzzle.

In The Outer Worlds, player resurrection is at the Gaslight location.

In the fantasy world, players are resurrected directly at the entrance.

These two different situations mean that the player is resurrected for different reasons.

Resurrection in the fantasy world is undoubtedly Mel's divine power. But why would Mel resurrect a hunter who came to hunt him? This doesn't make sense on the surface, but as long as you read the relevant information of the Moon School carefully, you can guess it. The Moon School did establish a connection with the ancient god Mel in some way, and they did have the ability to steal the authority of the Moon God.

Of course, in the eyes of the Moon School, this was not stealing. They just wanted to establish a deeper and closer connection with the Moon Goddess out of worship and belief in her. Therefore, they not only used everyone's mind to create such an illusion, but also used it to establish a very close connection with the Moon Goddess.

And for some reason, the Moon Goddess Mel voluntarily stayed in this illusion.

The game text here does not directly state the specific reason, but Zhuge Jun roughly guessed that it should be the pursuit of another ancient god, Ilonak.

Because from the original ending plot, it can be seen that these three ancient gods seem to be in some kind of cyclical restraint relationship.

When the player places the incomplete Heart of God on the altar, Ilonak will appear impatiently, which shows that the ability of the Moon Goddess Meier is a huge tonic for Ilonak.

In the small city of Charlton, Ilonak is clearly the strongest one.

In order to avoid Ilonak's pursuit, Meier hid in the illusion.

But in the illusion, if the people of the Moon School were allowed to get too close to him, then the Moon Goddess Mel's authority might be taken away. Therefore, the Moon God created an infinite loop in this illusion and restarted it constantly to prevent his own power from being weakened.

But on the other hand, this infinite loop also allows players to make infinite attempts. In the end, Mel is killed by the player, and the real Heart of the Ancient God is taken away.

Zhuge Jun came to the cathedral with full confidence. He felt that he could definitely achieve the best ending.

Because there are only three Ancient Gods in this game, and he can obviously kill them all!

The reason why those people before only had a bad ending was because they only killed Ilonak, and then Sasra, who was in charge of the power of spiritual vision, became invincible.

Zhuge Jun first killed Mel, then Ilonak, and finally Sasla, which was equivalent to killing all three ancient gods in the game.

Having obtained all three authorities, isn't this directly becoming a god?

So, Zhuge Jun stepped into the cathedral with full confidence and started the final two boss battles.

The situation was exactly as he expected. After placing the incomplete Heart of God, Ilonak descended; and after killing Ilonak, Sassara appeared.

Because he possessed the power of the mind, Zhuge Jun was able to sense Sassara's form and had the strength to fight.

The difficulty of these two boss battles is indeed very high. It can even be said that the moves of these two ancient gods are a bit shitty. Their strength is even better than Mel.

Ilonak has swift movements, powerful destructive power, and terrifying vitality. When the player is hit and bleeds, Ilonak can also recover.

And Sasla has some unreasonable moves, such as crazy throwing skills after being hit twice, or 360-degree spiral AOE like a mad dog.

Players can no longer rely on GP, ​​and can only make good use of the various coping methods learned before to defeat these two ancient gods.

Finally, after a fierce battle, Zhuge Jun defeated Sasla and slaughtered the last ancient god in the game.

"It's done! It's finally done!

"Could I be the first person to complete the true ending of Blood of Lies?"

Zhuge Jun was a little excited. He had already recorded the screen in advance to commemorate this special moment.

Of course, you can also consider posting this true ending online, maybe it will become popular?
Zhuge Jun was waiting happily.

After defeating all the ancient gods, you can interact with their incomplete corpses to obtain "Ancient God Flesh and Blood" and "Ancient God's Eye" respectively.

At this time, Zhuge Jun can choose to eat all three key items: the Ancient God's Flesh and Blood, the Ancient God's Eye, and the Ancient God's Blood.

"Very good, I declare that from now on, I am a god!"

Zhuge Jun made the declaration proudly, and this behavior attracted many people near the experience store to come over and watch.

After all, in the entire experience store, Zhuge Jun's progress in "Blood of Lies" is relatively advanced, and everyone wants to see what the CG of the ending will be like.

However, the next second, the game character let out a painful wail, his body began to swell, and then...

With a "bang", it exploded.

The body was blown into countless blood foams, and the three invisible forces seemed to be devouring and dissolving each other. The flesh and blood expanded and then evaporated as if boiling, and finally turned into ashes in the air.

In the end, nothing was left.

The cathedral, which had seen fierce fighting, became empty.

The sun shone through the stained glass of the cathedral, and the sunrise came again in Charlton. But there was no trace of the God Slayer in the world anymore.

At this time, the achievement "Slaughtering Gods" popped up in the lower right corner of Zhuge Jun's screen!
Zhuge Jun was a little confused: "Huh? That's not right!"
