I'm not just human!

This subtle, gradual alteration of self-perception is actually the most terrifying thing...

"Fortunately, this is only the third reset, not the fifth."

Xia Fa smiled and walked directly towards the area filled with shovels.

[The Paradoxical Joker] first followed along, and then asked:

What are we supposed to do?

Xia Fa laughed:

"It's very simple. Dig up this soil. Of course, it has to be within three minutes, because after three minutes, [Brief Reality] will be pounced on and torn apart by those humanoid monsters again."

The Moon Goddess had already followed, and upon hearing Xia Fa's words, her eyes suddenly flashed, as if she had realized something:

You mean...?

All three were exceptionally intelligent individuals. Not only the Moon Goddess, but also the Paradox Clown immediately understood Xia Fa's meaning.

"Third brother, you don't actually think these humanoid monsters are afraid of water, do you?"

Xia Fa nodded slightly, and while leading the three of them to dig through the mud, he slowly said:

“I felt something was off from the start. Why would a rich man fill in the pond in the yard with mud when he was hosting a potion party? It’s clear that it wasn’t the rich man who did it, and it’s unlikely that the guests did it either.”

"But at first, we couldn't deduce anything from just this one strange thing. In addition, after the 'Brief Reality' discovered the water outage, they mistakenly thought that the humanoid monsters liked water and blocked the underground wells, which immediately led us astray."

"It wasn't until the last reset, when we broke into the guest room, that I realized something was wrong."

"The water coming out of the bathroom in that guest room... was muddy."

"If these humanoid monsters really blocked the underground wells because they loved drinking water so much, then how could there be mud in the water that came into the pipes? Even scraps of clothing, hair, or even skin from their feet would make more sense."

[The Paradox Joker] Having heard this, he already understood the gist of it:

"So, you suspect that the underground well was actually blocked, but not because these humanoid monsters jumped in to drink water, but because... they used shovels to dig in a lot of soil and blocked it?"

Xia Fa nodded:

"Yes! But why would they block up the underground wells, and even this pond, for no apparent reason?"

The Moon Goddess pondered:

"So the only explanation is... they're afraid of water."

Xia Fa smiled slightly:

"That's exactly right."

As soon as he finished speaking, the soil beneath his feet was dug up, and with a whoosh, clear water gushed out.

Without Xia Fa saying anything more, the Moon Goddess trotted over and opened the mahogany door of the villa.

Xia Fa and the Paradox Clown casually picked up the scattered iron buckets, filled them with water, and rushed over.

The cool, refreshing mist was so intense that as soon as the two approached, the swaying humanoid monsters trembled in unison, their numb faces revealing fear and dread for the first time.

Seeing this, the three felt even more reassured. Paradox Joker was the first to act, splashing a bucket of water directly at the target.

The water sprayed in a fan shape onto the humanoid monsters, and screams immediately rang out. These humanoid monsters melted away as quickly as cotton candy soaked in water!

"You really do it! Third brother, you truly live up to your reputation!"

[Paradox Clown] shouted excitedly, completely losing the solemnity of a true god, and instead sounding like an excited young man.

Xia Fa smiled slightly, picked up the bucket, and walked straight to the door of the small kitchen where [Brief Reality] was located.

This time, the humanoid monsters avoided them like the plague, but Xia Fa showed no mercy, throwing out half a bucket of water, instantly causing more than a dozen humanoid monsters to disappear into the water.

The Paradox Clown and the Moon Goddess rushed to the pond, each carrying a bucket, and filled another bucket with water before joining Xia Fa.

“It seems that in just a few minutes we can eliminate all the humanoid monsters here and rescue [Temporary Reality], so…” Xia Fa looked at the two of them, seemingly asking if they needed to wait twenty minutes.

"Then let's not wait any longer, kill them quickly! Then awaken [Temporary Reality]!" The Moon Mother Goddess made a decisive decision, and a hint of excitement appeared on her beautiful face.

Water droplets, carrying a cool, refreshing mist, scattered and flew throughout the villa.

Splashes of clear water or slightly muddy water were poured out of the bucket.

The humanoid monsters would immediately dissolve upon contact with even a few hundred milliliters of water, screaming in agony, utterly powerless to resist.

The lacquered wooden floor was covered with dark red water, carrying a strong smell of blood, flowing out of the door or into the gold-plated drain hole in the corner of the villa.

As the Paradox Joker poured out the last bucket of water, completely melting the trembling, curled-up humanoid monster in front of him, all three breathed a sigh of relief.

“Finally done. There shouldn’t be any other humanoid monsters left, right?” Paradox Joker looked at the other two.

"Don't worry, there aren't any. According to my observation, all the humanoid monsters are actually gathered in the lobby on the first floor, waiting to devour the flesh and blood of [Brief Reality]," Xia Fa replied with a smile.

"Well, that's good. I wonder what's hidden in this Promised Land... It's something to look forward to." The Moon Goddess chuckled.

The three of them didn't believe that the Promised Land truly contained the last two of the five fundamental documents; if that were the case, the Promised Land wouldn't be so simple.

Yes, even though this Promised Land uses the terrifying combination of "infinite reset" and "reverting any being to an ordinary person", it is still relatively simple compared to many other Promised Lands.

The truly terrifying Promised Land doesn't even give people time to prepare or decipher it; they die in a daze shortly after entering.

This point has been mentioned many times in the First History's account of the Promised Land.

"In any case, rescuing [Brief Reality] is already a great achievement. I used to think that the nine of us would never have a chance to fight together again, but it seems that there is still a chance."

The Paradox Joker laughed as he turned around, preparing to walk over and push open the door to the small kitchen.

Since the three of them had dealt with all the humanoid monsters in the hall in just a few minutes, and even opened all the doors to take out the humanoid monsters hiding inside as well, they were not in a hurry to bring out [Brief Reality], for fear of any accidents.

This is the third reset already; if there's a next one, things could get complicated.

Seeing that the Paradox Joker had reached the door of the small kitchen and was about to knock,

But at that moment, all three of them suddenly felt dizzy, their heads throbbing as if they had a cold, and then they all felt as if they had left a certain mental world.

The next second, Xia Fa, the Paradox Clown, and the Moon Goddess were all astonished to find themselves standing on a spacious balcony.

Not far ahead, lying unconscious in a beach chair, lies [Brief Reality].

Almost instantly, the three of them felt a complete difference; they were now in a real world made of matter.

The place we just visited, although exactly the same as the villa we have now, was indeed a spiritual world.

Suddenly, the middle-aged painter-looking figure on the beach chair, "Brief Reality," trembled violently, as if he had experienced immense pain in an instant. Then, he slowly opened his eyes.

As a true god, He naturally couldn't need time to adapt to everything after waking up like an ordinary person. Almost instantly, Xia Fa felt an extremely powerful spiritual intuition sweep over him. [Brief Reality] had already turned over, secretly holding two paintbrushes, one black and one white, in his hand, and his gaze was fixed on him.

With a loud "boom," an incomparably powerful aura of a righteous god erupted from His body, revealing Him to be at the third level of a righteous god, almost on par with the [Error Rule].

[Brief Reality] stared directly at [Paradox Joker] and said in a deep voice:

"【Paradox Joker】, are you being held hostage by the woman next to you? What's going on?"

It seemed that in just a brief moment after waking up, He had already judged the strength of the three people present. In addition, the Moon Mother Goddess was a completely new face, yet she was so powerful. Therefore, [Brief Reality] immediately made its own judgment.

At this moment, He looked like a middle-aged painter, but His imposing aura was no less than that of any true god.

The Paradoxical Joker laughed out loud:

"【Brief Reality】, isn't it a bit too late for you to be so vigilant now? Besides, if I were really taken hostage, you wouldn't be able to beat me."

That familiar mocking tone made [Brief Reality] momentarily dazed, as if recalling something, and it couldn't help but sigh:

"Could it be that I slept for a long time? But... I can't remember what happened. So, who is this being? And this little guy looks a lot like you. Could he be your illegitimate son?"

Seeing how relaxed the Paradox Joker was, He naturally dismissed the suspicion of being held hostage and thus relaxed.

Even so, the "brief reality" still subtly holds onto those two paintbrushes, one black and one white, seemingly retaining a final sense of caution.

"This one is the Moon Goddess, and this one is my younger brother, Shafa," the Paradox Clown introduced with a smile.

"The Moon Mother Goddess? You actually recruited this one? And your own brother... have you found the last one of your Sun God King clan?" [Brief Reality] said, looking Xia Fa up and down, then shook his head, "His aura is too chaotic, it's nothing compared to when you and your elder brother were young."

Upon hearing this, Xia Fa pursed his lips, but did not argue.

It's impossible for me to take action now and subdue the "temporary reality" to prove that I'm not weak, right?

The Paradoxical Joker smiled helplessly:

"Actually, my third brother is already stronger than me, even though He is just an Outer God."

[Brief Reality] A sudden jolt:

"What? You're not kidding me, are you? Your third brother..."

[The Paradoxical Joker] waved his hand:

"This isn't the time to talk about that. What's more, how did you end up trapped in the Promised Land? And do you know how much trouble your time clones have caused outside in your name?"

[Brief Reality] I couldn't help but pause in surprise:

"What do you mean by my time copy... wait..."

He seemed to suddenly remember something, covered his head with one hand, and even slumped back onto the beach chair:

"So that's how it is! So that's how it is!"

[The Paradoxical Joker] couldn't help but step forward immediately and ask with concern:

"What's wrong? Did something come to mind?"

His concerned attitude surprised [Brief Reality], who looked up at him in astonishment. After all, the two usually bickered, and [Paradox Joker] rarely acted like this.

He paused, then sighed and shook his head:

"If I'm not mistaken, it's been at least several thousand years since the day Julius and the false gods ambushed us, the nine true gods, right?"

The Paradox Joker also sighed softly:

"More than that, it's been ten thousand years, and... never mind, I'll tell you later. First, tell me about yourself, how exactly did you stray into this Promised Land?"

[Brief Reality] He shook his head slightly, his gaze turning wistful:

"On that day, Julius, leading the Golden Cleansers, first replaced the [Nature Monarch] and the [Supreme Law]. It happened in the real world, and I perceived it through the [Eternal Reality]..."

He continued speaking in this manner, his voice initially calm but growing increasingly agitated.

Xia Fa listened carefully and found that it was pretty much what he had guessed.
