I would rather betray the gods

Just as Yuzu thought, Xu Xiangsheng wanted to use the stars as a chessboard to fight against the commander.

He was a "small substitute" because perhaps the phantom couldn't exert any force.

The advanced level of astrological analysis is not about forcibly pulling a star back after you move it, but about adjusting another star no matter how you rearrange them, so as to achieve the effect of using the astrological chart to my advantage.

It can be said to be ever-changing and full of mystery, boundless and limitless.

The commander understood, narrowed his eyes slightly, and even the slightest glance from his eye revealed unparalleled confidence, for he considered himself to have reached the pinnacle of expertise in this area. Thus, he accepted the challenge.

He made the first move, and then he saw a star in the sky shift its position.

The phantom gestures, controlled by Yuzu's magic, follow up.

The two sides went back and forth like this, repeatedly...

"despair"

"despair"

With each shift of a star, the observer felt as if they heard a chess piece fall to the ground.

Sometimes Yuebai would look at the starry sky, and sometimes he would glance at Xiaxia's watch, which was displaying updated data. Although the celestial phenomena were more visually striking, the data on Xiaxia's wrist was simple and easy to understand.

Are there many smartwatches like this?

It's like discovering a new continent; Yuebai really wants to own a piece of it.

"This is just a display device connected to the remote satellite terminal server; it's useless to you."

Xia stared at her watch without looking up.

On the watch, data analysis has changed from an initial 50/50 split to a 20/80 split, with Yuzuru now only having a 20% win rate and it's still declining.

"Terminal networking? That means... even the Commander-in-Chief, integrated with the supercomputer, can share this data?"

Yuebai was startled.

"Yes, it's not scary to be a master, what's scary is someone who cheats."

Xia looked at Yuebai with a solemn expression.

As the data shows, with the passage of time, each subsequent move of the star-shaped chess piece by Xu Xiangsheng's phantom would be pondered repeatedly and become increasingly slow.

Then, the two sides made a few more moves of star chess. Suddenly, the commander burst into laughter. After laughing, he crossed his arms and looked at the phantom. "It is undeniable that your star chess analysis is top-notch, but I consider myself unmatched in this field."

Then he pointed to the starry sky and said, "The grand formation of stars is already set in stone. No matter where you place this last piece, it will be of no use."

Upon hearing this, Yuzu couldn't help but bend two fingers, thinking it better to save her strength to fight against the established "fate" to the death.

The phantom, however, remained silent for a moment before making a finger gesture, then turned around, nodded solemnly to Yuzu, and disappeared.

Seeing the illusory figure meant seeing Xu Xiangsheng's true form. This round of fierce battle had exhausted his energy and spirit, and he was completely worn out.

Then, the commander burst into laughter from above, seemingly mocking Xu Xiangsheng for his pedantic and rotten ways, saying that if he lost, he should just accept it and not be so fixated on that last move.

The laughter was so grating; Yuzu didn't like it but had no complaints.

But his intuition told him that Xu Xiangsheng's final move was not a futile effort; at the very least, it was a sign of respect for his own hard work in completing the entire game.

Just like students in an exam hall, even if they know they will fail, finishing the last question is an affirmation of themselves!

So he raised two fingers again, determined to take the final step seriously on behalf of Xu Xiangsheng.

He gazed at the starry sky, gathered his strength, and then used the illusory finger to push the stars.

Just then, his eyes lit up.

At that moment, the scene of the phantom turning around and solemnly nodding overlapped with the starry sky in his vision.

"It's still uncertain who will emerge victorious!"

He shouted excitedly and exerted his strength to push the star.

kindness?

The commander looked at him with suspicion, and then shared the computer system to re-examine the starry sky in a short moment, confirming that the starry sky was undoubtedly in his favor.

Then what was he shouting excitedly? The commander was even more puzzled.

After Yuzu placed the final star piece in the commander's expected position, she lowered her arm and said, "You've won this game."

There's no need to admit or deny what's already set in stone. The commander wasn't particularly pleased by Yuzu's surrender. "But you were just shouting that the outcome was uncertain."

"Is there a contradiction? You won the game, but we won the outcome."

Yuzi pointed to the starry sky, urging the commander to take a closer look.

The commander was puzzled, but he was absolutely certain that there was nothing wrong with the celestial phenomena. However, a certain unease that quietly arose in his heart still forced him to look up.

At this point, Yuzu explained: "Actually, Xu Xiangsheng knew from the beginning that he was no match for you in terms of divination and interpretation, so he started to find another way from the beginning."

Look at the starry sky right now, is its arrangement reasonable and scientific?

"Alas~ You, with your scientific background, are so engrossed in metaphysics that you can't extricate yourself, while Xu Xiangsheng, with his Taoist background, is scheming against science. How ironic! I only discovered the trickery at the last minute."

Upon being prompted, the commander's face gradually turned ashen, and his mouth involuntarily opened but he could not utter a single word.

Originally, although the celestial phenomena were magical illusions, they were still based on the real stars and sea as their 'base map'.

The current celestial layout, while seemingly well-organized, is not uniform. Some stars are nebulae, others are stars of varying magnitudes. An overly chaotic arrangement loses its effectiveness and could even lead to a complete collapse.

Imagine a drop of water with the molecular structure H(2)O. If you remove the O and replace it with other elements, is it still water? Can you drink a glass of water with H(2) instead of O? This is no longer true.

In the shock of the commander's inability to reverse the situation, the starry sky collapsed, like a large curtain being pulled into a point of reference, and then the bright sunshine returned in the daytime.

The backlash from the collapse of the spell | Star Gazing| dealt another severe blow to the commander, who coughed up a mouthful of blood and his body returned to its illusory state.

"In this cycle of cause and effect, no one could defeat me. But I just happened to encounter the reincarnation of that outsider, and he's so unpredictable. It's truly the will of Heaven that's hard to defy."

Finally, the commander showed his willingness and smiled with relief.

Then the others transformed into countless fireflies and scattered across the sky.

Like an evening after the rain, the sky gradually turns red with rosy clouds.

It was so beautiful that everyone present couldn't help but stare intently at the sky.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone through the fiery clouds, and something slowly fell from the light.

Yuzu leaped forward and caught it. Seeing that it was a scroll, and recalling the ancient aura on the commander, she thought to herself that this was his true nature.

With the deed done, Xu Xiangsheng immediately dispelled the mental illusion.

The level of "torture" caused by the grapefruit and the scroll made him very upset, and he needed to heal his wounds promptly.

Back in the meeting room, Yuzu immediately opened the scroll to check, only to find it completely empty. "What? The Muji Book?"

"Let me see!"

Moonlight, even more curious, reached out to ask for it.

She thought she had found a treasure, but it turned out to be a "pager with a dedicated card," which Yuzu generously tossed to her without much interest.

Unexpectedly, the scroll that was light and ordinary in Yuzu's hands became like a huge boulder in Yuebai's hands.

Yuebai was unable to catch it as it fell to the ground, and her palm was even pricked because of the barrier on the scroll.

Strangely enough, the scroll landed just like an ordinary book, even though it was very light.

This phenomenon immediately sparked an idea in me...

On the way back to Blue Fatty Star, Yuebai asked Youzi why he was so sure that the leader of Yaowang Star was a god, even though the truth was slightly different from his guess.

Yuzu replied that the civilizations on the twin planets, Blue Fat Star and Distant Star, should have been at similar levels of development. The discrepancy was so large that one side could use technology to defeat the other's gods, which made him suspect that there was someone behind Distant Star.

After filtering out various speculations, he suspected that there was a traitor among the gods on the Blue Fat Star.

The traitor fled to the distant star when the prophecy first appeared on the Blue Fat Star. He used his divine vision to stimulate the rapid development of the distant star civilization. When the critical moment was approaching, he turned around and used advanced science to deal with the soon-to-be-born Holy King.

"What are the intentions of such a deity? Wouldn't it be better for their native gods to have another holy king?" Yuebai interjected.

"You've hit the nail on the head," Yuzu said. "The prophecy says that this person's arrival will disrupt the existing system and build a new world, and will also re-deify the gods. So, whether in the mortal realm or the semi-heaven, those conservatives who stick to the old ways and rely on past achievements are unhappy." Yuzu was happy to answer this kind of interjection.

He continued to explain, and it wasn't until this scroll appeared that he understood everything. The scroll was a prophetic artifact used by people before their reincarnation. The number of years in a reincarnation was unknown. During the long period of being ownerless, the scroll developed independent thoughts and even contradicted the ideas of its owner. Therefore, it was unwilling to return to its former owner's hands and even hated the return of its former owner, using various means to prevent its former owner from being born.

As fate would have it, the scroll's series of tactics brought this "outsider" into the game, and by sheer luck, he managed to "capture" it back to its former owner.

"What a roundabout way it is, it's still you!" Yuzu shook the scroll in its hand. It must be because it had tamed it that it could lift it. It was convinced, haha!
