Start a Core Pod

Chapter 1580 Starting from scratch... (It was really painful not sleeping well last night)

Fire shot into the sky.

With the explosion that went straight into the sky, the entire cathedral was reduced to ashes. Duanmu Huai raised his head and looked at the fire in front of him, silent.

After that, Duanmu Huai used his own power to completely destroy this research device that had gone astray and could no longer go astray - the Tribunal wiped their butts every time they messed up. . Duanmu Huai feels very unhappy when he thinks of this. After all, it's like this every time. Those **** oil guys... Do they think they can do whatever they want if someone helps them keep the secret?

Anyway, with the Inquisition here, we won’t be afraid of the world being destroyed if we screw up, so let’s just do it to our heart’s content! --so.

Duanmuhuai really wanted to tie all those **** oil guys to the stake.

Forget it, for the sake of [Tianyao Shield], let them go.

By the way, when the device was destroyed, all the protection imposed on the citizens of the Kingdom of Kagoshima also disappeared. Seeing these people at a loss, as if their lives had lost their purpose, the people of the Alliance Army were considered to be out of control. A bad breath. After all, the country of Kagome was originally named after Kagome, and felt that it was nobler than people from other countries. Now without Kagome, they can no longer be noble.

As for the young brave man, he was directly executed in public in the square. After all, he caused what happened, and the young brave man looked like the world was destroyed in the end - well, in a sense, he had achieved the goal of Norn. desired goal.

With the destruction of the device, all the demons also died. Originally, these demons relied on the ability given by the device to act like a blessing. Now that the device has been destroyed, all the demons are naturally dead. Duanmuhuai also went to see the demons. All those demons have disappeared, leaving only large areas of black ashes in the entire city.

From a certain perspective, this is the end.

Then...it's almost time.

Duanmuhuai looked at the display of [Happiness Progress: 5/10] on the task progress bar and silently pressed the complaint button again.

Soon, a line of information appeared in front of him.

[GM21425 is at your service]

[GM21425: Do you have any questions and need help? 】

"You can actually get through?"

Looking at the conversation in front of him, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but sigh.

[GM21425: As the first user of this system, of course we must provide you with dedicated service. What do you need? 】

"I would like to ask, what is going on with this copy of the God of Joy?"

Duanmuhuai still raised his own questions.

"To be honest, I don't think this dungeon has anything special about me at all. What I do is the same as before, right?"

Yes, this is what Duanmuhuai is confused about. Although it is said to be a copy of enhanced happiness, Duanmuhuai feels that what he is doing is no different from usual. I don’t feel any joy at all, so where is this joy?

[GM21425: What do you think happiness means? 】

"I think? Happiness should be about making yourself happy...? Isn't that right?"

[GM21425: Although that is one of the explanations, joy is not just that. Joy is a kind of power, a power that infects others. Making oneself feel happy and making others feel happy are both manifestations of the God of Joy]

"Is there such a thing? But it seems right to say so...?"

After hearing this, Duanmu Huai finally realized that he had entered a misunderstanding.

When he first got the God of Joy, he was aiming at the evil of obsession, and the characteristics of the evil of obsession are extreme self-indulgence and enjoyment. Although Duanmu Huai did not intend to be as extreme as the Evil of Obsession, every time he thought of the God of Joy, he instinctively developed in this direction, especially after Duanmu Huai obtained the Dao Heart Seed Demon in the martial arts world. Huai felt that happiness should be like this.

But now it seems that happiness is not the only way. Making yourself happy and making others happy is also a way.

Just like those comedians, such as Chaplin and Stephen Chow, the comedies they star in are obviously happy, right?

Should it be?

Um? But that’s not right, right?

"Wait, so you mean, what I do makes other people happy? Who could it be? It can't be Nolen, right?"

Although Her Royal Highness the Princess did get along well with Duanmu Huai, and was quite immersed in Duanmu Huai's actions, Duanmu Huai did not think that Norun alone could generate such a powerful power of joy.

[GM21425: What the gods do will bring changes and influences. Sometimes it may not be you yourself, but the happiness caused by the influences and changes brought about by your actions...]

"I don't quite understand...can you stop being such a Riddler?"

Duanmuhuai said that he hated the Riddler who spoke unclearly.

[GM21425: As far as I can tell within my authority, the God of Joy is a priesthood that is activated because what you do makes others feel happy] "Others? What I do makes others feel happy." Happy?"

Duanmuhuai became more and more confused. He frowned. According to the GM, this priesthood was not given to me out of nowhere at the beginning, but because what I did made others happy, it was activated after reaching a certain limit. of. In other words...the same as the God of Destruction?

[GM21425: This is all I can say. Please open your eyes. Nothing is static, and there is not only one explanation. The same is true for the God of Joy]

"I seem to understand a little bit, but I still don't seem to understand quite..."

Although Duanmu Huai could understand the other party's meaning to some extent, he still couldn't understand the nuances. After all... he was originally a person who liked to use his hands more than his brain.

[GM21425:......Please wait]

The GM looked like he was dealing with something, then was silent for a moment, and then spoke again.

[GM21425: As the first user of this system, and in order to compensate for your previous losses, I have applied to allow you to activate the 'reincarnation' effect in the second stage of the joyful mission. Do you want to use it? 】

"I don't quite understand. What does reincarnation mean? Does it mean you want me to die once?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned, and the other party quickly answered.

[GM21425: That’s not the case. Strictly speaking, it allows the user’s soul to travel through time and space and experience a brand new journey. You should have heard that in some myths and legends, there are stories of gods descending to earth, growing up, experiencing life, and then returning to heaven]

"Ah, you are talking about those stories about Wenquxing descending to earth."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai immediately understood what the GM meant. Isn't Tang Monk in Journey to the West the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi? The descent of Wenquxing is an exclusive feature in many stories about gods and monsters. Not to mention ancient Chinese mythology, even in the world of Faerun, there is such a thing as the arrival of a saint, so as soon as the other party mentioned it, Duanmu Huai immediately understood what was going on.

[GM21425: Yes, previous users’ time travels were all done by themselves, so if you want to better experience the power of the God of Joy and start a new life from scratch, that is also an option]

"That seems right."

Duanmu Huai also thought of his previous time travels, which were basically done by himself, or using characters in the game. It seemed that he had never started from scratch.

"But if you reincarnate like this, don't you usually have to lose your memory? Do I have to do the same?"

Duanmu Huai actually doesn't like stories about gods who lose their memory after reincarnation. After all, in his opinion, the gods who originally controlled the wind and rain in the heaven were ordered around and bullied in the human world, and they finally woke up and recovered their memories. Strength and stuff are too cliche. Although this is a normal story development, Duanmu Huai doesn't like this story development at all.

[GM21425: As a god, you can choose to keep your memory and be reborn. The specific method is as follows...]

"Um………"

Duanmu Huai looked at the instructions sent by the other party. The content was very simple. Simply put, it was to automatically separate the soul from the body, then start the task activation, and then choose a world line to travel through... It turns out that this is how gods descend to earth and be reborn, Duanmu Huai I really haven't tried it before.

But...it doesn't seem to matter if you give it a try. After all, you have to try everything.

Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai opened the mission progress and then pressed the button for the second stage.

The next moment, the scenery in front of him turned into a dark and boundless starry sky.

I saw that in this starry sky, threads emerged from all directions, and then extended from all directions.

"Let me see, it says... well, these threads are the threads of a person's destiny. As long as they are inserted into them, they can live their lives from scratch. The brighter the light, the more it represents the impact of their abilities. …Influence? Does it mean influence on the world?”

Duanmuhuai looked at the system instructions, stretched out his hand and touched one of the threads of fate - there was no reaction.

"Then you just need to integrate your soul into the thread of fate, right... It's pretty simple to say... But which one should I choose?"

Duanmu Huai doesn't want to choose those too bright lines of fate, because the devil knows what kind of person these fate lines will turn him into, but there is no need for those too dim lines of fate, after all, he is not like in myths and legends. Those gods also come down to earth to suffer.

That's it.

Duanmu Huai nodded, then stretched out his hand to grab a thread of fate that didn't look bright or bleak. Then, he drove his soul to integrate into it - the next moment, Duanmu Huai felt as if he was riding a slide in a water park, rushing forward quickly.

Even if he is reincarnated, as long as he retains his memory, it should be fine.

Duanmu Huai thought so, but soon...he would find that this was a decision that he regretted extremely.
