I would rather betray the gods

hiss~

The pomelo is like eating a wasabi stick; after hearing that, I felt like my hair was standing on end.

You can come up with your own fantasy stories, but it's hard to believe anyone if someone else tells them!

Once the "wasabi-like" sensation subsided, he said in a soothing tone, "That's right, this is a dream, anything can happen in a dream."

Knowing he couldn't believe it, Cancer asked the crucial question: "If it weren't for your special status, would all of us gods be here in the Dream Court playing house with you?"

Upon hearing this, Youzi thought about it and realized it made sense. How could such an ordinary, mundane person like him attract so many deities if he didn't have something profound to offer? In reality, he probably wouldn't even get a second glance from the village chief back home.

Seeing the emotion in his eyes, Cancer waved his hand and conjured an image in the sky above the long bridge, while telling Yuzu that it was a simulation of the future predicted by an astrologer.

In the images, planets collide with each other, and living beings fight each other. Stars fall like rain and souls fly like catkins. The survivors have no sense of relief at victory, and the losers have no fear of annihilation. It is a star-studded purgatory where even the heavens are numb.

What Yuzu remembers most is that Earth also appears in it. The humans on the planet are divided into two factions: one prays to the gods to save the world, and the other firmly believes in modern technology for self-defense.

However, the result was that a super-large meteorite first streaked across the sky, and then a super-large celestial body swallowed the entire Earth. No matter which faction humanity was on, in the end, all their efforts were in vain, and they were as insignificant as ants.

This tragic scene is just an ordinary corner of the footage.

"The end of the world? It doesn't look like the Milky Way to me, so why is Earth here?!" Yuzu couldn't help but worry, as her own home and her friends and family were all in this home.

"This is after the collision of the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy, so of course it doesn't look like the Milky Way." Seeing that its goal had been achieved, Cancer turned off the image because it was 'consuming mana'.

cut!

Upon hearing this, Yuzu was immediately relieved. "Scientists have already calculated that it will be billions of years before these two galaxies collide. By then, daylilies on Earth will probably be extinct."

Anticipating his mindset, Cancer went straight for the high-intensity attack:

Yuzu is referring to the perspective of a mortal using a telescope, while the perspective of a god is that the two galaxies are already "eggshell to eggshell".

For example, the ancients thought that the highest clouds were the height of the sky, but they did not know that the atmosphere was the outermost layer of the blue planet's structure.

Similarly, Earthlings initially thought that the Kuiper Belt, mainly composed of ice fragments, was the outermost part of the solar system, but later discovered that there was an even more extensive outer region called the Oort Cloud.

Similarly, the edge of the nebula, this large structure, is not the edge of Earth's civilization's understanding; the Milky Way and Andromeda's "eggshell" have long been in contact.

Once the eggshell is squeezed and cracked, the internal pressure difference will instantly cause the soft tissues inside to merge more rapidly.

It doesn't take billions or tens of thousands of years; we can meet the gods in this generation.

"Even if I've been lost for tens of thousands of years, it's still too many to count on one hand..."

"Isn't it a bit too hasty for all of you gods to gather in my dream all at once because of this? My life is only a few decades long, what's the big deal? We can talk about it when I'm done!"

Yuzu couldn't understand it. Even if she did have some special identity, it didn't seem to relate to her current self—being both the King of Kings and the Judge.

It seemed as if the gods had no patience even for a child. Cancer smiled wryly and offered the following explanation:

When the 'eggshell' was not in contact, the two star systems were separated by an ocean. Now that their outer edges are connected, it's like two continents separated by an ocean with mountains and swamps in between.

The problem is this: the gods of the Milky Way can foresee the future, and so can the fairies.

Once the fairy god group discovers a path through the mountains and swamps that can be used by their army, they will surely march in and eliminate any worries about their future living space!

Even disregarding this reason, the Andromeda galaxy's divine forces would still come to attack, because the Andromeda galaxy is far larger than the Milky Way, and they have no reason not to assert their dominance. The law of the jungle applies equally to interstellar space.

Calculations suggest that the discovery of such an interstellar passage would take at least a few years and no more than ten years. Therefore, while the beings of this era may not be able to witness the collision of two major star systems like the gods, they will certainly be able to participate in a massacre of life.

"If it weren't for the fact that time was of the essence, who would be willing to pull you out of the ground? Do you really think we other gods are pushovers? When gods clash, who's afraid of whom? We just don't want the galaxy to suffer even more." Cancer hoped that Yuzu had the right mindset from the beginning.

"In that case, wouldn't it be safer for you to hold a referendum on a powerful individual who doesn't need to rise from the ground to become the King of Kings?" Yuzu really didn't have that much ambition.

"It's different. The astrologer only accidentally deduced the birth of a king of kings when predicting the future, not the king of commanders as you understand it."

The stars and constellations told the astrologer that this person could find the ultimate answer to the universe.

Therefore, the collision of the two galaxies can only be considered a triggering factor.

"The rest is a secret," Cancer explained.

"But I don't even understand what you mean by God-King, let alone King of Kings..." Yuzu knew her own limitations and looked worried.

"Are you saying that you, an ordinary mortal, are afraid you can't support this?" Cancer narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had instantly locked onto his thoughts.

Then they told me not to worry about the reason:

Just as a pole casts a shadow and a tree provides shade, the Milky Way galaxy, as a unified whole, operates under the same stars, hence the twelve golden paths are also used for the entire Milky Way.

Excluding the uncivilized areas, the gods roughly divided the Milky Way into twelve palaces, each guarded and governed by a god-king.

The twelve houses are named after constellations, not because they are similar, but because this naming convention originated from the divine realm and was passed down to all worlds.

Each palace has a primordial spirit who is highly regarded and firmly holds the position of God-King.

Although Yuzu is a mortal in this world, his primordial spirit is the same primordial spirit that everyone looks forward to in the Pisces Palace. When he is not here, the Pisces Palace is just an empty seat waiting for him. That's why he said that Yuzu is the God King Pisces.

Moreover, since Yuzu left his entire life's cultivation to him in his previous life, there's no need to worry about it being "unremarkable" (like a scallion growing from dry land).

"Leaving past life power to the next life, is that even possible?" It's one thing if the primordial spirit comes with it, but leaving past life cultivation to the next life is a bit like exploiting a bug. Although Yuzu doesn't quite understand, she roughly gets the gist of it.

"You did it in your past life." Little did they know that Cancer was Yuzu's little fanboy in his past life. Seeing Yuzu's knowing expression, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Cancer then added a touch of ambiguity, saying something intriguing: "The road ahead is long yet bright. Even kings have their troubles. Although you were given a great gift in your past life, some troubles cannot be solved by power alone."

What?

Yuzu knew there was something in his words but didn't know what he was implying; in any case, it wasn't anything good.

"It's getting late, you should wake up in the mortal realm. Remember to go to bed early tomorrow." Cancer didn't want to say more for the time being.

"Go to bed early...does that mean you're coming again? What else do you want to do?" Yuzu looked bewildered.

"Be crowned! How can we pull you up from the ground if you don't get crowned? How can we start as the Pisces God King if you don't get crowned!" With that, Cancer kicked Yuzu off the long bridge.

This is how to leave this place. You wake up in fright; anyone who has ever woken up in a fright knows this.

He didn't tell Yuzu at first because he hadn't told her what he had just said.
