I, the Rock King Emperor with 21 billion in power, have joined the chat group.

"There's another way?" Gui Zhong raised one hand and gently covered her small, cherry-colored lips with her fingertips, which were about to let out a surprised cry.

"Zhongli, are you making progress again?"

“Yes, having reached this level, of course I want to see the scenery from a higher place.” A faint smile appeared on Zhongli’s lips. “Moreover, having found Qingli, my soul has been liberated once again.”

At this point, his tone carried a hint of loneliness, as if he were at the top of a mountain.

"Even if I don't want to progress, perhaps in a hundred years at most, my body, which extends along the timeline, will cover all the past of the Teyvat world. Then, it will spontaneously extend into the future."

"If I don't stop it, the world of Teyvat will become a glass bead that I can play with in the palm of my hand in 1,300 years at most."

“I don’t want to become that kind of god, so I’m seeking another path and change.”

Chapter Eleven: Spider, On a Whim

"A new path..."

Gui Zhong pretended to know a lot and pondered for a moment.

A few seconds later, she spread her hands and said helplessly, "Although I really want to help you, I don't understand any of what you're saying. I'm not at your level, so I can't even understand you. It's really sad."

"Yes, that's it."

Zhongli pondered and said, "If I don't suppress my power, perhaps one day it will be very difficult for you to even hear my name, know my voice, or recognize my face."

"I've already developed some of that quality myself."

"If I truly take control of the past and future of the Teyvat world, then everyone—whether it's you, anyone else, or even the guardians of justice—within the Teyvat world will be like my puppets. I will know every word you say and everything you do. I can simply pluck the strings of time and fate, and you will dance to my will without making the slightest mistake."

“Such a future…” Gui Zhong thought about it carefully and felt a sense of fear in his heart: “It is indeed hateful.”

"But it would be quite nice to become a puppet dancing in your hands, Zhongli."

After she finished speaking, she raised her azure eyes and stared intently in Zhongli's direction.

"Heh~!" Zhongli chuckled silently.

A few seconds later, he didn't respond to the direct confession, but continued talking about his own things.

"Now I will talk about my path."

Zhongli didn't say much, but simply repeated to Guizhong everything he had said to the chat group's AI, Alpha-6.

The Dust Demon God was immediately caught in a dilemma.

She rubbed her temples, feeling that her wisdom was of no use at all, and felt a little downcast.

Zhongli saw through her thoughts, remained calm, took two steps closer, and stood in front of her.

A hand reached out and covered her smooth, dark hair.

Then I gently rubbed it.

Her words were gentle.

"Don't overthink it. The difference in our levels of understanding is too great, and the difference in our knowledge reserves is bound to be as vast as the heavens and the earth."

"In the end, when it comes to strength, the accumulation of knowledge is more important than simply training strength. You should also study more, at least to understand and learn about the many things in the world of science and technology."

"Compared to the level of knowledge advancement in worlds with supernatural powers, knowledge advancement in worlds without supernatural powers is much faster."

"kindness."

Gui Zhong obediently nodded his little head, his cheeks flushing slightly from his ears to his face, as if he were slightly tipsy.

Zhongli pretended not to notice her attempt to conceal her identity and said softly, "I'm still waiting for Spider's reply, but generally speaking, he shouldn't refuse me."

"Hmm." Gui Zhong simply nodded his head again and remained silent.

......

Eluro's Labyrinth

upper layer

The point of exit.

A pale spider, about half the size of a human, stood at the doorway, seemingly quite excited.

The spider looked ferocious and terrifying.

Eight scarlet eyes darted about freely in all directions. A pale carapace covered the spider's entire body, and its ferocious forepaws resembled the sharpest blades in the world. Just one glance at it evoked a terrifying feeling that even the soul could be slain.

Most importantly, the spider exudes a strong smell of blood and a terrifying aura.

An ordinary adventurer would probably be so terrified that they wouldn't be able to sleep for months just from catching a glimpse of it.

Of course, ordinary adventurers are unaware of this.

The creature before them was filled with blood and slaughter, terrifying like a demon king, majestic like a dragon, and irresistible like the Grim Reaper.

Who is it?

The silver spider, resembling the Grim Reaper, had a gaping maw filled with a ferocious grin.

----Of course it's me! Spider!

Standing on the first level of the great maze.

Spider looked smugly out of the maze. The overflowing sunlight was warm and inviting, and the chirping of birds carried the scent of the forest on the breeze. The faint aroma of fruit also wafted through the air.

[Chief Intelligence Officer: I, Spider-Man, have finally made it out!!]

[Minister of Magic: Oh!!]

[Minister of Body: Oh!!!]

[Chief of Intelligence: I want to eat lots of delicious food!]

[Minister of Magic: Rice!!]

[Minister of Body: White bread!!!]

[Chief of Intelligence: Barbecue!!]

[Chief of Intelligence: Hahahaha!!! (Hands on hips)]

[Minister of Body: Hahahaha!!! (Hands on hips)]

[Minister of Magic: Hahahaha!!! (Hands on hips)]

After a long-awaited monologue in his mind, Spider-Man cheered himself up and took a step forward, ready to leave the great maze.

Suddenly, the intelligence chief in my mind popped into my head with a sentence.

I suddenly have a bad feeling.

I suddenly had a huge feeling that something terrible would happen if I left this huge maze.

The Minister of Magic immediately joined in: "I felt it too, it's giving me the creeps."

Do you know what happened? Which skill is issuing this warning?

At this moment, the Minister of Health hesitated before stepping forward.

I sensed it too, and I know which skill it was.

The intelligence chief immediately roared: "Speak up now!"

The Minister of the Body immediately raised his claws in his mind: [Oh, oh, oh!! I know! It's the skill from the Multiverse Chat Group we bought a few days ago—National Martial Arts. A Whim.]

Minister of Magic: [??? That thing, I remember... it's kind of a predictive ability. It allows you to foresee whether your plans or actions will be dangerous.]

Intelligence Minister: [If it's this skill, then it means that once we leave the maze, there will be danger?]

Minister of Health: [Hmm, I'm afraid so. So what should we do? Should we just leave this giant maze?]

Intelligence Minister: [Just to be on the safe side, let's not leave yet.]

Minister of Magic: [Alright! I'll prepare for two days and investigate the cause.]

Now that we've already discussed it in our minds...

The spider then built another silk nest not far from the exit.

Five days later.

She found nothing.

However, the daily red envelopes Zhongli gave her were enough to earn 1000 points for a low-level task card.

Chapter Twelve Spider: Help!

-----The Promising Future True Lord Joins the Chat Group-----

Golden Fairy (Corté): Lately, I feel like the world has changed a little.

Chocolate and Motorcycle (Yuri): I think so too. My relationship with despair used to be getting better, but now, my relationship with hope is getting better! Despair, who is that?

Avenger (Tendo Kisara): I think so too. At least, I now have the possibility of killing all those disgusting Tendo family members. I just feel more and more pleased. Ah, hurry up, let me quickly learn to surpass this world, surpass the power of the human government, and then I can kill all the people I hate.

Golden Fairy (Corté): I always sense that Miss Tendo harbors a lot of anger and pain within her, but please don't let these things hurt you. Although I know you might not listen to what I'm about to say.

Avenger (Tendo Kisara): I know that although anger has burned within me, I don't hate everyone. At least I can still go to school normally, interact with friends normally... at least I can maintain a facade of normalcy.

Chocolate and Motorcycle (Yuri): Tendo, I have a feeling that your relationship with Despair has improved.

Chocolate and Motorcycle (Yuri): But it's a post-apocalyptic world, so it's normal. In my world, several people I've met have grown closer despite their despair. Don't worry about it, don't worry about it. As long as there's chocolate to eat, as long as there's canned food to eat, nothing else matters.

Avenger (Tendo Kisara): .....

Golden Fairy (Corté): Although I don't know much about it. But Yuri, for some people, many things are more important than life itself.

Chocolate and Motorcycle (Yuri): Well, okay, I don't really know much about it.

Spider (???): Hold on a minute!

Spider (???): First: Never underestimate life; second: Never give up hope; third: Even in dire straits, one must forge ahead bravely.

Spider (???): A partner in dire straits! Captain Spider makes his dazzling debut.

Golden Fairy (Corté): ? ? ? Miss Spider, do you have some special life advice?

Spider (???): No, I just thought these lines were cool, so I kept wanting to say them. Sorry, I got too carried away.
