It's okay for me to bully my wife for the sake of the young master's dignity, right?

Chapter 333 [089] False God

"Qin Jiandan?"

Another person came unexpectedly. The other party knew Qin Jiandan's name, but his face was familiar yet unfamiliar.

Qin Jiandan turned sideways and saw a ragged man with long hair, who had a poor and kind face and gentle and deep eyes. The man wore a crown made of thorns on his head, and his exposed skin was covered with scars and still dripping with blood.

Isn't this the one on the cross? Qin Jiandan's eyes twitched. Could it be that Santa Claus or you are both taking a shortcut through this time tunnel?

"How do you know my name?"

The man wearing the crown of thorns was stunned for a moment: "Is this the first time we meet? You can call me Joshua... If you see the Buddha later, please say hello to my master for me."

"Son of John and Mary, if you keep wasting time like this, I'm going to change my mind!"

A tired middle-aged man behind Joshua urged him, his tone clearly showing hesitation. He held the lasso in his left hand and the purse in his right hand. Somehow, Qin Jiandan was sure that the purse contained 30 silver coins.

"Alas, are you reluctant to let me sacrifice myself?" Joshua smiled in response to the urging from behind him, "My best friend, after you 'betrayed' me, I finally had the opportunity to sign a blood pact with the false god and leave hope to future generations."

The tired man spat on the ground: "Hypocritical God, hypocritical Son of God, you two are a perfect match! God's Emperor is not an Emperor... I hope your guess is correct, otherwise I will bear the infamy for eternity in vain!"

Joshua and his good friend were busy on their way. Before they disappeared from the time tunnel, Joshua turned back and told Qin Jiandan:

"Our enemies have never changed. Please remember that imagination can make reality, and faith can defeat power."

Qin Jiandan and Valei were silent for a long time.

“Those two people just now…” Vale scratched the white hair on the back of his head doubtfully, “No way, no way, no way?”

"Have you forgotten that this is the border between reality and fantasy?" Qin Jiandan said, "Various versions of legends converge here... The key is how to find a way out of the time tunnel."

"Ahaha! Someone needs a passage? A passage is a road, and a road is a passage!"

A very chatterbox and funny cartoon character suddenly appeared above Qin Jiandan. He was dressed in Greek style, wearing boots decorated with wings and holding a jeweled scepter.

"I am Hermes, the ancient Greek god of roads! I will help you and your dog leave the time tunnel. If you want to know why, it's because I'm very kind! And I'm fast, even faster than Cao Cao!"

Needless to say, this is probably the Disney version of Hermes. He waved his gemstone scepter, and in an instant, a cave collapsed on the side of the time tunnel, only big enough for one person to enter and exit.

"Travelers, I must warn you, because my duty includes ensuring the safety of travelers." Hermes said, "It is very dangerous down there, very dangerous, so dangerous that it is not recommended for anyone to go there - but that is where you came from, are you sure you don't want to stay in the time tunnel for the rest of your life?"

Qin Jiandan declined the suggestion. It was fine to be called by Santa Claus to deliver gifts from time to time, but what if the snake-haired Medusa came to visit and turned Vale into a stone statue?
Considering that Zeus and Hermes both belong to the Olympian mythology, and Zeus's habit of turning into animals to have affairs is well known, swans, bulls and the like will come to play with Vale tomorrow, and even I myself will not be safe...

"Hermes, please help me keep an eye on my female companion." Qin Jiandan said to the cartoon character floating above his head, "I'll go down to explore the way. When I shout 'OK', let her come down, okay?"

Hermes looked at Vale, who was wearing tight overalls that highlighted her athletic figure. "Well, after all, I am the patron saint of athletes."

"Wale, wait for me for a moment."

It happened in a flash. Qin Jiandan suddenly jumped down the cave and activated the Steel Armor Breathing Technique at full power!

Influencing the space-time tunnel, Qin Jiandan could see that there was a pure white conference room at the bottom of the cave, but the speed of time flowing in the conference room was obviously different from that on his side.

Within a few seconds of Qin Jiandan jumping down, several minutes passed in the conference room below.

This is a grand and bright hall, but somehow filled with strange depression. A pure white hexagonal table stands quietly in the center, just like the walls, floor and everything else.

At the table, six people in pure white work tights sat, seemingly senior staff of the company. Although Qin Jiandan couldn't see their faces clearly from his perspective, each of them tried their best to look authoritative and solemn, revealing a cold decisiveness.

"Resolution No. 1 - Enact the 'Anti-Corporate Consciousness Law' in Ringstone City, passed unanimously." The senior staff members at the six tips of the hexagonal table took turns speaking, one after another, with extremely smooth logic, as if they shared the same consciousness, or could use telepathy to communicate quickly.

Their words were as cold as stone statues, as if they were ghosts in the dark night. It was a pure white meeting room filled with light, but because of their presence, the remnants of dead silence wandered here.

"Resolution No. 2 - The 1.2Z supernova explosion occurred in the Eridanus constellation, 2012 million light years away from Earth. This caused the exit of the space-time tunnel in Ringstone City to flicker, and there is a possibility that a time traveler could mistakenly enter. It is recommended to deploy more time devourers to eliminate the pests."

Time Devourer is another name for Time Vampire, which means that the company can control Time Vampire to a certain extent. It is really unfathomable.

"Resolution No. 3 - Regarding whether to interfere in the 'Promised Land' incident in 2024, the silent discussion has not produced any results. Members are requested to separate their consciousness and vote by raising their hands."

Whenever an issue is involved, a three-dimensional projection will appear in the center of the hexagonal table, showing data and diagrams related to the issue, but it is not clear from Qin Jiandan's perspective.

Several of the councillors raised their arms, but Qin Jiandan vaguely saw that they were just raising something resembling an arm. Squirming.

"Two votes in favor, three against, and one abstention."

"The voting results of the Separate Consciousness are as above - the final decision is not to interfere in 2024 for the time being. After all, our fellow tribesmen from the old times have not seen the true face of our Lord, and Ringstone City is our true promised land."

"Today's agenda is over. Members of Parliament, please pray sincerely."

The six councillors twisted their hands together, pressed them against their foreheads, and sang in unison in a dizzying rhythm:

"We, the chosen people of God, are pious and offer our spirits, bones, blood and flesh, allowing the black hole void to resonate beyond gravity, travel through time and space, devour our enemies, and allow our descendants to prosper..."

Qin Jiandan subconsciously felt that the mirror-like white walls of the conference room seemed to have a secret hidden inside, and there was an indescribable strong presence hidden in them.

The six congressmen did not notice Qin Jiandan "slowly" falling from the space-time tunnel until Qin Jiandan suddenly landed in the middle of the hexagonal table and stepped on the three-dimensional projection into pieces.

"Alert! Alert! Alien invasion detected!"

"Activate the first-level killing order!"

In an instant, Qin Jiandan understood why it was called "alien invasion", because these six congressmen were not human beings at all, but human-shaped squid monsters!

Each person's head was a slimy squid, with black dripping eyes that revealed endless horror, and a vertical mouth full of fangs and cruelty. The white work clothes were tightly attached to his humanoid body, as if he was a mutant that escaped from a laboratory.

Qin Jiandan heard that there were no Furui employees in the company, so what exactly were these "councillors" who were obviously of high status?
The congressmen's arms were not human limbs, of course, but rather a varying number of squid tentacles that twisted like snakes, each covered with sharp suction cups that flashed dangerous reflections.

Before he could be surprised, Qin Jiandan looked up and saw an even more terrifying sight - at eye level, the walls surrounding the conference table were completely transparent, as if behind the extra-thick explosion-proof glass of an aquarium, a gigantic eye almost filled the entire field of vision, staring at Qin Jiandan's intrusion with indescribable creepiness.

Just like the sound of waves and bubbles hitting the eardrums when a whale swims in the deep sea, the owner of the giant eye suddenly distanced himself from Qin Jiandan. Qin Jiandan could barely see that the other party was a super giant squid, and one of its eyes alone was taller than a three-story building!

This is the king of squids that the squids worship! Is there such a deep sea water under the Ring Stone City? Judging from its size, it must be at least 100 meters long!

An indescribable shudder ran through his whole body, and Qin Jiandan felt icy cold from the soles of his feet to his spine.

The squid king's eyes looked intelligent! Its head was sharp, but its tentacles were long and endless. There must be something growing on its tentacles that could cause a sanity loss, but it was not clear at the current distance.

“Because, because, because, because—”

The squid king roared and slapped the glass window with its tentacles, causing a huge vibration in the conference room. The congressmen staggered to the ground, and Qin Jiandan did not fall down because of his solid horse stance skills.

This cry... is very similar to the sound I heard when I fought with the ancient corpse beast, also known as the "ancient ancestors". And the pure black characteristics of its body are also the same as those of the ancient ancestors. So is the ancient corpse beast a brother of the Squidward King, or a defective copy?
At this time, Qin Jiandan noticed that none of the fallen congressmen left their seats. Their seats were actually hollow, with a piece of flesh-like substance connected to their bodies. As the Squid King shook them, seawater continued to overflow from the gaps in the hollow seats.

Squidward and Squidward are connected to each other! The little squid and the big squid are one!

This unfortunate thing, the alien squid is the real ruler of Ringstone City! ?
