only……

The high-dimensional observer looked at the young man who was gradually waking up under the crimson moonlight, and slowly touched the civilization that was trembling under him.

In order to avoid being beaten to death by the awakened Heavenly Lord and God, the High-Dimensional Overlookers are ready to participate in this farce of fighting among the gods.

Chapter 1 The story from the past to the present

After his vision went dark and he died unexpectedly, Gao Wei has been floating here.

This is a dark world that is difficult to see clearly.

He can sense the situation around him and can even move his body slightly.

But there was always a thin "curtain" surrounding his eyes, making it difficult for him to see the darkness outside.

In his solitary contemplation, Gao Wei came to a realization: he had likely traveled through time. But for a time traveler, this opening was even less precise than that of a satellite that had hung in the sky for millions of years—although it couldn't move, it could at least see the scenery on Earth. But Gao Wei saw only a dark chaos.

Time passed slowly without him noticing. He was like a prisoner trapped in this thin curtain, unable to escape. This curtain was only slightly larger than his body, which made it impossible for him to move over a large area.

His control over his body became increasingly sophisticated, and he could even clap his left hand against his right to playfully avoid going insane from loneliness. Fortunately, his perception of time seemed less sensitive than before. He watched the veil before him grow thinner and thinner, until he could peer through it and gaze down at all the creatures below.

He leaned his head forward and tried to put his eyes through the tiny gap he had drilled with great effort - strangely, it was only now that he realized that there was only one huge eyeball on his body.

However, the scene He saw outside made Him, His "human" soul almost cry. Through the gap in the curtain, He finally saw the outside - that was the universe, that was the bright and beautiful starry sky.

The stars are shining in the dark night, and countless civilizations peeking at the sky seem to be praising the magnificence of the starry sky and saying "I am here!" to the entire universe.

Such a beautiful scene made Gao Wei, who had spent a long time in loneliness, respond involuntarily. His body danced in the sky, projecting his body into the eyes of every living being, and singing to the universe with his vocal organs from somewhere unknown.

Gao Wei was surprised to find that these civilizations had extinguished one after another, and the starry sky had become quiet again. A huge celestial body composed of countless stars leaped up from below him angrily and slapped him in the face.

This frightened Gao Wei, who was suddenly attacked. He shrank into the curtain covering his body, and looked at the huge celestial body outside that was cursing and throwing various celestial bodies to hit the curtain. Suddenly, he felt a little happy.

It's great to watch other people jump over the wall in a hurry. Why does this guy suddenly come to hit me? The young Outer God thought happily. He still didn't know the name of this huge star in the outside world, and he didn't know why the beautiful and gorgeous civilization outside suddenly went out. But when he truly realized what the problem was, it was already irreversible, and he formed a deadly feud with the super star master in front of him.

The Super Star Lord had a bad temper, and therefore, his patience was not very good. After realizing that the turtle shell of the Outer God, whom they had always called "the High-Dimensional Overlooker," could not be broken, the Super Star Lord decisively chose to move to another place to continue building his empire.

He is the ruler of the celestial bodies, the master of all the stars, and the maker of the laws of the universe. He established the rules of each vast galactic empire, forcing all beings to fight wars according to his rules. Such a wonderful galactic movie naturally attracted Gao Wei's attention again, allowing him to enjoy watching the Super Star Lord break through the defenses time and time again.

"What on earth are you trying to do? Why do you keep interrupting my game? You don't want the places I gave you, and you bother me every day?!" The Super Star Overlord said angrily at being annoyed by his own kind.

"I really just want to take a look." The high-dimensional overlooker replied sincerely, but this answer only made the super star master even more angry: "Get out!"

"disappear as far as you can!"

At this moment, the High-Dimensional Overlooker, having been scolded, pondered carefully whether he had done anything unpleasant. Feeling his geometric body composed of countless beams of light, he suddenly realized a very strange truth:

"Those civilizations were extinguished because I saw them, right? I remember when I was... watching the battle didn't affect the anchor..." The high-dimensional overlooker stretched out a piece of his body and rubbed it unconsciously. . Only now did he suddenly realize that his body had become infinitely strange to him, and his soul had become inhuman during this long period of loneliness.

"But it's so boring to be huddled in this veil... I really only took a quick look, and those creatures died just like that? They're too fragile. Hmm... I have to resist looking too closely. Looking down on them won't cause any problems, right? Probably not, absolutely not. I still don't know anything, and I don't want to become an Outer God with a bad affinity with God."

——However, the High-Dimensional Overlooker did not know that his notoriety had spread from the mouth of the Super Star Overlord, and he became the second most hated god after the Lord of Mysteries in the mouths of the Outer Gods.

Even the charlatan "Fate Ring" and the incessant "Eternal Whispers" didn't want the High-Dimensional Overlooker to disrupt their peaceful lives of battle. This trait of harming others without benefiting oneself was the first they had seen in an Outer God other than the Celestial Lord. They would have decisively fled when faced with the Celestial Lord, but the High-Dimensional Overlooker, a "honey badger hiding in its shell," only felt bad luck.

After all, what the Outer Gods talked about most was that a high-dimensional overwatcher even overturned the secret puppet of the Heavenly Lord under his unconscious gaze one time - this was the news sent back by the Super Star Lord.

This news shocked many Outer Gods. Tianzun's humiliating defeat was mocked repeatedly by the other Gods. The High-Dimensional Overlooker, the source of the chaos, fled to other dimensions until Tianzun stopped pursuing them. After that, the High-Dimensional Overlooker fully realized some of its own unique characteristics, daring only to overlook the conflicts in the starry sea from the higher dimensions.

Then, the battle between God and the Celestial Lord began. First, the initial awakening caused many Outer Gods and the Old Ones to lose their authority and Essence. Even the Mother Goddess, who stood at the top of the Old Ones, had half of her Essence torn away due to the intense aggregation.

The latter two gods uncontrollably gathered all the surrounding essences and characteristics, and fought passionately in the melee. Gao Wei also almost lost control of his own power and joined the melee as a high-dimensional overlord.

Thanks to his alienated spirit, he did not lose his essence like his old enemy, the Super Star Lord. He only had to be fooled two or three times by the Heavenly Lord before he successfully escaped from the battlefield.

The world was enveloped by a barrier, isolating the power of the Outer Gods. After a passionate battle, Tianzun and Shenshen both fell to Earth. Only after repeatedly confirming the deaths of the two gods did the High Dimensional Observer dare to open his eyes.

He gazed upon the land, noting that its inhabitants had not once again been driven mad by his gaze. The High-Dimensional Observer smacked his lips in satisfaction, then, hiding behind the curtain before him, watched as the Ancient Sun God awakened from the Sea of ​​Chaos, transforming into a sun and cultivating new light upon the earth.

The High-Dimensional Overlooker, half asleep and half awake, surveyed everything before him, ignoring his compatriots thronging outside the barrier, pounding on it. He slowly sorted through his memories, witnessing the sunset and the awakening of the New God in the process.

He saw the Black Emperors leave his territory, and one by one they perished under the siege of the gods; he saw the Creator's half-body roaring madly, and doors opening in the starry sky, and then never being able to close again.

As time passed, he gradually regained consciousness, carefully storing away the memories of his "human" days and placing them within the core of his mind. He saw the crimson moonlight in the distance, and saw the millennia-long plot of the two goddesses.

The High-Dimensional Overlooker touched his face, where the scarlet mark from the Celestial Venerable's whipping remained. With this thought in mind, he casually fiddled with the chaotic dimensions around him—stretching the strands that made up those dimensions, one by one, until they snapped like rubber bands.

——The two blows Tianzun gave him were particularly hard, and some of the pain from that time still remains to this day.

The Celestial Lord must still remember my vengeance, so I can't let this old scoundrel be resurrected—the High-Dimensional Overlooker, having finally awakened from his trance, thought so. He lurked outside the barrier, gazing down with cold eyes. He watched the Fallen Mother Goddess corrupt Roselle and the Mother Tree of Desire control the Bound One.

The consciousness of Eternity was tragically sealed by the Celestial Lord and transformed into a wishing lamp, constantly begging for help from its original form. Countless Outer Gods attempted to sneak through the barrier to retrieve their Essence, but the initial barrier held them back. Compared to these miserable compatriots, the High-Dimensional Overlookers considered themselves quite fortunate.

The high-dimensional overlooker was dormant in a rather low-key manner, staring at the earth through his own eyes as always. Even the Superstar Master, who has been dealing with the High-Dimensional Overlooker for countless years, is not quite sure of the attitude of this trouble-loving "Small Sky Master". It stands to reason that the high-dimensional overlooker who was chased and beaten by Tianzun before should be as keen on killing Tianzun's coffin board as God, but the current high-dimensional overlooker is just like him who has been silently looking down for thousands of years, and seems to have no interest in him. Nothing on this land is ambitious.

Until a "velvet curtain" fell to the ground and was swept away by the crimson moonlight. A young man lying on the table woke up confusedly from a dream that had lasted for thousands of years, looking at everything around him with some fear. Everything had suddenly become unfamiliar.

To the other Outer Gods, the High-Dimensional Overlooker suddenly emerged from behind the veil that had concealed him for millennia, and, like a celestial being suffering from PTSD, he madly charged towards Earth. He, swathed in Essence, slammed fiercely into the barrier, instantly startling the "newly" righteous deities on Earth.

Source surged outside the barrier, while the gods on Earth used it to engage in a frenzied battle with the higher-dimensional Overlookers. Taking advantage of the barrier's weakening, the Mother Tree of Desire intensified its attack on the Bound, and the Uncertain Mist also attempted to rush in to replenish itself.

——The high-dimensional overlooker also took advantage of the beginning of the chaos he created and the perfect situation created by the outer gods to send one of the nine sequence characteristics of his two pathways to the earth.

Then, watching the battle between the gods, the high-dimensional overlooker put away his somewhat damaged source material and prepared to run away. After giving the hidden sage a big slap in the face who wanted to steal the chicken, he hid behind the curtain again. .

Gao Wei spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling the energy being transferred from "himself." He moved his hands slightly, only to see deep scars on them that reached the bone. A stream of blood flowed from the body's abdomen, causing the "corpse," which had been slightly more alive due to the absorption of the Beyonder energy, to quickly die.

"That's not good. If this body dies, this part of my soul might be discovered by the Goddess of Night. But now the war of gods in heaven is almost over. If I use the power of my original body to heal this body, it might still be discovered. Do I need to give up this body?"

Gao Wei sneered, "Hehe." When he unleashed his will, he specifically chose to prioritize those who were dying in Tingen City and had some kind of mystical connection with "Source Castle."

Of course, except for the two people who read the Antigonus family notes, they were the key escorts arranged by the Night Goddess and Adam. Even if the previous high-dimensional overlooker was strong enough to dare to confront Tianzun, the current high-dimensional one is not willing to face off against two true gods related to the source of matter in sequence nine.

However, he was very lucky. An unlucky member of the Abraham family passed by and was killed. He was not even an extraordinary person who could attract the attention of the church.

Logically speaking, it wasn't worth it to injure one's true self for the sake of an incarnation. But opportunities were rare, and there might only be one chance to nail the lid of Tianzun's coffin shut.

The Higher Dimensional Observer was ready to take direct action, hammering two more nails into the coffin of the Celestial Lord. As He figured out His plan, the Outer Gods who had previously attacked either left contentedly, their impact on reality further deepened, or were driven back into the starry skies, their bodies in disarray. The Higher Dimensional Observer once again emerged from His Essence and gently traced the skies above the Earth with His limbs.

Tints of color lit up on Earth's outer barrier. Even Primordial Hunger, the Outer God whose brain had been eaten, was shocked by the recklessness of this "alien" from a higher dimension. He was unsurprisingly repelled by the crowd. As he fled, he even pulled back his veil to shield himself completely from the Outer Gods—as if to show off his intact Essence.

No one noticed as a paintbrush emerged from the hands of a mortal on Earth. He painted his body with color, completing his dead body and erasing the bloodstains at his side. Gao Wei looked up at the sky coldly. A ray of morning light shone from the horizon, seemingly obscuring the starry sky where countless gods had risked their lives in battle.

He pressed his aristocratic top hat and walked out of the alley wearing colorful but particularly elegant clothes.

Chapter 2 His Majesty Gao Wei arrived at his loyal Earth

When Gao Wei walked out of the alley, the sounds around him suddenly became louder. Pedestrians with different faces were walking along this dilapidated street, and a little further away there were the sounds of vendors shouting and selling their products. The city of Tingen is so small that sometimes some small and medium-sized businessmen and even some nobles with low titles have to pass through the areas where these civilians live - of course, when the carriage of the noble gentleman passes by, the vendors and civilians will still Make way for yourself.

After all, if you are killed by a noble, you are really dead, and civilians will basically not receive compensation. The most absurd thing is that even the family of the deceased has to compensate those bitter nobles for the carriage money.

It is precisely because of this that Gao Wei, who was wearing a well-dressed suit, did not attract too many people's attention when he walked out of this dark alley. He has no badge of nobility on his body, and the exquisite clothes on his body can only prove that he is a wealthy man with good taste, or a minor nobleman who comes to the alley to do some ulterior things. This kind of thing is quite common in this era, and the civilians who are trying their best to live have no time to meddle in other people's business.

"What is this place, Tingen?"

Gao Wei Abraham silently questioned his true self. He stretched his body, fully experiencing a sensation he had never experienced in the starry sky for the past 100 million years. Walking under the warm and bright sunlight, Gao Wei felt a long-lost sense of "joy."

Read the memory of this body. Gao Wei looked down and said to himself. Gao Wei curled his lips and used his spirituality to explore the remaining spirit of the original owner in this body. From it, he learned the information he needed at present and...the origin of this body. The cause of death of the owner.

Gao Wei stood in silence at the door of the alley. As he walked forward, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. It wasn’t that he was lamenting his bad luck, as the possessed member of Abraham didn’t have any extraordinary characteristics; it was that before he died, Abraham saw that the person who killed him was a “secret prayer” of the Aurora Society. Moreover, the secret praying man obviously has not gone far after killing people, and there is a high probability that he will be seen chasing souls in the underworld.

The secret prayer people are easy to deal with, but the crazy true creator behind them is unpredictable.

Why is it the Aurora Society? Gao Wei looked a little strange. He thought for a moment and then turned around and walked towards the alley. After simply searching the surrounding space that ordinary people couldn't see with the help of the main body's vision, the high-dimensional observer discovered the traces of the secret praying man.

"The main body, send me a copy of the extraordinary characteristics of sequence nine. That person... is right here. He may have seen what I did just now." Gao Wei said calmly: "Whether he saw it or not, he must die. That's a secret prayer man. Even if he himself doesn't know what happened to me, the 'True Creator' may not be paying attention."

The wind gently blew Gao Wei's hair, and there seemed to be a faint sound echoing in his ears, which made him smile. Gao Wei took out a revolver from his pocket, opened it with a "click", and checked the bullets inside.

This revolver is filled with yellow bullets, and it is even carefully engraved with a demon hunting pattern. Bystanders could tell just from this pistol how wary Abraham was about the extraordinary people who might appear around him. However, even with such thorough self-defense preparations, this ordinary man still died in a famous accident. In the hands of unheralded secret prayers.

"Even a living corpse of sequence six will die suddenly when faced with too many bullets. The secret prayer of sequence nine... I don't think he can survive the bullets." Gao Wei said, "Since this body before Judging from the injuries, this unlucky guy was probably attacked by a sneak attack. And under a prepared sneak attack, the Sequence Nine Beyonders have an absolute advantage. It is estimated that this guy died before he even had time to draw his gun."

"However, I'm very curious why an ordinary Abraham member would be assassinated by the Aurora Society? I can't understand it..."

The alley was not long. Gao Wei was "talking to himself" as he walked forward. Within two minutes, Gao Wei reached the end of the alley. Several ragged homeless people were sitting on the ground and whispering. The moment they saw Gao Wei, their eyes flashed with a fierce look - but this fierce look disappeared silently when they saw the pistol in Gao Wei's hand. disappeared, and even their eyes became clearer.

Next to these homeless people is a garbage dump, with sewage flowing across the ground and a stench that makes ordinary people and even the police reluctant to go near it.

Gao Wei gripped his pistol tightly and pointed at the homeless people, signaling them to leave the alley. After the homeless people left, the narrow alley seemed much wider. Gao Wei walked forward, pointing his gun at the garbage heap, curling his fingers slightly, and decisively pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

With a short scream, the mysterious man rolled out of his hiding place in pain, his body still bearing traces of ritual magic. The bullet hit his abdomen, and blood flowed uncontrollably, causing him to feel excruciating pain.

He held his head and howled. The sight of him looking directly at Gao Dimensional's repaired body almost drove him out of control. The pain now accelerated his transformation into a flesh and blood monster, but Gao Wei quickly took a step forward and pressed the cold muzzle against the secret praying man who was gradually turning into a beast.

"Puff puff puff!"

The remaining five bullets were continuously poured into the head of the secret praying man by Gao Wei. The transformation of his body came to an abrupt end, and the mutated body also slumped to the side. Gao Wei heard the original voice in his head gradually disappear, leaving only a vague connection. Gao Wei looked up at the sky, knowing that the war between gods was over. The Seven Gods closed the barrier again so that the outer gods were blocked outside the barrier.

I have to hurry up and use the characteristics of the secret praying person to cover up the characteristics of the external god in my body, otherwise it will be too late - it is not a bad thing to choose the path of the true Creator, after all, His ravings are not harmful to me. . Gao Wei thought this way. Under the leadership of his body, the battle between gods that broke out earlier was extremely fierce. Countless foreign gods attacking the barrier at the same time could not help but remind the frightened righteous gods inside the barrier. The other gods are unclear, but Gao Wei understands that Adam and the Night Goddess, who are always cautious, will inevitably conduct a "comprehensive scan" of their own territory to prevent possible contamination from external gods from spreading further.

Gao Wei found a comfortable spot and sat down. While waiting for the secret praying person's body's characteristics to emerge, he calculated the time for the Goddess of Night to return to Loen. His current situation was extremely awkward. His original body in heaven could only pray for help through ritual magic, while his avatar had to help Klein defeat the Celestial Lord without telling Adam and the others, or... simply prevent the Lord of Mysteries from being born.

Gao Wei casually recorded it in the notebook in his hand. He couldn't help but thank Abraham, who was possessed by him, for his carefulness and actually carrying a notebook with him - which made him lean behind the curtain and look down - to feel the habit of recording the human world. A great sense of comfort, after all, this is one of the few entertainment projects he has had in thousands of years.

Besides observing and recording, the High-Dimensional Overwatchers' favorite activity was to engage in combat with the interstellar empires that the Super Star Overlords had painstakingly built, throwing countless planets into chaos. Or, at the instigation of the Ring of Fate, they would simply overturn the "dinner plate" that Primal Hunger was preparing to eat—then hide in their own Essence and watch as the effects of the fight between the Ring of Fate and Primal Hunger were scattered everywhere.

"Okay, the time is up." Gao Wei took the time to grab the characteristics that separated from the monster's body and swallowed it in one gulp, then closed his eyes and began to guide the extraordinary characteristics that existed in his body. There are two paths exclusive to high-dimensional overlookers, one of which is extremely lethal, and the other is more focused on one's own abilities.

Although being a high-damage mage is very attractive, there is probably only one chance to nail the lid of Tianzun's coffin. Gao Wei decided to stay calm and not let Adam realize the existence of him, the Outer God, in his own script.
