“He has no gender, no form, and His image depends only on how the outside world observes Him.”

"I will appear in the way you think I look and the way you want me to look, so this is my original image."

"..."

Lingyi frowned and thought for a moment.

"What about your true form? What does it look like?"

"That was the first ray of light when the world was born—"

A ball of soft sunlight emerged from the goddess's hand.

"If you have to find an original appearance, this is what you see."

“….Emmm, OK.”

Lingyi was silent for a moment and then nodded.

It's fine as long as the main body isn't something weird. It's just a ball of light...it's really impossible to determine its gender.

Let’s just leave it like this, it doesn’t have to become this ball of light, it’s still pleasing to the eye this way.

"What is your purpose in pulling me in?"

187. The Legacy of the God of the Bible

In the pure white space, the light is soft and eternal, as if time and space are frozen at this moment.

Ling Yi stood in the void, her emerald eyes staring at the silver-haired goddess before her.

The goddess's red eyes are deep yet warm, carrying a kind of love that transcends the mortal world, as if they can see into the deepest part of the soul.

She spoke slowly, her voice echoing in the void like an ancient hymn.

"In the battle just now, the Holy Lance became the bridge connecting us."

Her voice was gentle. “Through it, I feel the vibration of your soul—that will, that persistence, and the beauty that is constantly brewing deep within you.”

As she spoke, the silver-haired goddess's gaze seemed to be able to embrace all the sins and pains in the world, making people involuntarily want to confide the deepest secrets in their hearts.

"I hope you can inherit His power and legacy." She leaned forward slightly, her silver hair flowing like moonlight. "This is not only His last wish before His death—the former God of the Bible—but also the mission I've been entrusted with: to find a truly qualified successor."

"And you, dear Lingyi, may not be exactly the same as Him, but you are the closest one I have seen in such a long time."

"..."

Lingyi frowned, and a thoughtful glint flashed in her emerald eyes. She neither accepted it happily nor rejected it directly.

She looks a lot like the God of the Bible?

Lingyi doesn't think so. She thinks she is a good person and would be happy to do so and has been doing so all along - fighting crime (pests), helping the weak, and saving the world.

But she also has many selfish desires and is not as kind as the God of the Bible.

I don’t know whether the biblical God of this world has ever destroyed the world by a flood or burned down Sodom, but even if he did, it would not be of much significance.

Because if it were her, she would be more cruel.

Those people not only have to die, but it is not enough to just die. They also have to die in painful torture, and then their souls will not have rest.

The title of good person is even more out of her reach.

She stared at the goddess in confusion: "What exactly is His will?"

The goddess smiled softly, a hint of understanding in her gentleness. "Create a world—not an existing one, but a brand new one, a world that aligns with your purest ideals deep within your heart."

"That utopia you've dreamed of countless times stems from your heartfelt desire and longing, a beautiful thing you've always hoped to realize."

She paused, her eyes becoming slightly solemn. "At the same time, in the future, when facing those foreign evil gods who covet this world, I will be able to stand up and become the last guardian of this world."

Lingyi raised her eyebrows slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in her emerald eyes: "You know a lot."

An apologetic smile appeared on the goddess's face, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pry into your inner world."

She lowered her head slightly, her silver hair falling down.

“When two souls with such similar visions and wills meet, it triggers an indescribable resonance.”

“It is this resonance that allows me to glimpse into your deepest desires.”

She raised her head, her eyes blazing yet soft: "The ideal world that He longs for is so similar to His past dreams."

"Is this so..."

Lingyi lowered his head and thought for a long time.

"I can't quite accept it."

She raised her head and met the eyes of the silver-haired goddess.

"Can you tell me why?"

The goddess was not dissatisfied. She still looked at Lingyi gently and tolerantly.

"Trust, there is no trust."

Lingyi sighed helplessly.

Of course, inheriting the legacy of the God of the Bible is a blessing. It's like pie in the sky, isn't it? You can get the legacy of such a powerful person without having to pay any price.

She wanted it, but couldn't have it.

"How do I know if you would want to take over my body?"

A good person? After all, her understanding of the God of the Bible comes from what others have said, and the God of the Bible has never appeared in the anime.

"How do I know if this is a trap?"

Unless the other party is really a good person, the backup plan he leaves behind should be to try every means to resurrect him, rather than finding an heir for himself.

But, the existence of good guys...

There are very few of them among ordinary people, and they are almost extinct among the strong.

How could Lingyi trust the other party and accept this inheritance that could be easily tampered with?

No matter how you think about it, it's impossible for her to just happily say "Okay, okay :)" to someone who says, "We have similar visions, so come and take over my legacy."

Does she look innocent? If she were to encounter a scammer, would she also happily sit on the golden toilet?

In fact, the resonance that the silver-haired goddess mentioned was only felt by the other party, and Lingyi didn't feel anything at all.

"I understand that saying something like this suddenly is both suspicious and abrupt. It's natural for you to have such concerns."

The silver-haired goddess looked understanding and wasn't bothered by Rei's distrust.

"During this long wait, I also considered that the future heir might have such concerns, so I made corresponding preparations."

The silver-haired goddess spread out her hands, and balls of light flew out from her hands one after another, and then lined up in a row in front of Lingyi.

Finally, the ball of light dissipated and turned into several objects emitting a mysterious aura - a cross, a Bible, a holy grail, an olive branch, a lily, and a crown of thorns.

"I have deconstructed and divided his heritage into several parts. Now I place them before you. You can study, explore, and examine them at will, and then choose the part you deem safe for your own use."

“They will always be here, always available to you, and you can access them anytime.”

"Is this okay?"

The silver-haired goddess asked softly.

To put it simply, the silver-haired goddess's current behavior is like - Lingyi saw a treasure chest, but was worried that the treasure chest might be a treasure chest monster, so the silver-haired goddess opened the treasure chest herself, and then took out all the treasures in the treasure chest and placed them in front of Lingyi, allowing Lingyi to choose the parts that he thought were okay and take them away.

In other words, Lingyi bought a car, but she felt that the car was not safe, so the silver-haired goddess directly dismantled the car and sent all the parts to Lingyi, allowing Lingyi to assemble a car that she felt was safe by herself.

"The more generous and easygoing you are, the more suspicious I feel."

Lingyi sighed helplessly.

"I'll think about it. Besides, it takes time to study these inheritances and confirm that there are indeed no problems with them, right?"

"of course."

188. (Revised) I didn’t expect you to understand Hafk!

Rei and Patchouli have completed their mission in the world of Devil High School and returned to the main divine space.

After returning, Lingyi and Patchouli carefully studied the inheritance left by the God of the Bible.

All the inheritances seemed to be fine to Patchouli, but this might also be because the God of the Bible had a back-up plan that was hidden enough for Patchouli to see through.

So out of caution, Patchouli only chose an inheritance for Lingyi that she thought was the most reliable and trouble-free.

After letting Lingyi check it himself, he used it in the special place of the main god space.

It is absolutely safe in the main god space, and no means can really harm the reincarnation.

Neither Patchouli nor Lingyi are sure, so let the main god space make the judgment.

The inheritance that Lingyi finally chose was the Bible, which was an inheritance of some aspects of faith in the God of the Bible.

After acquiring this inheritance and integrating it, Lingyi has, to a certain extent, replaced the position of the God of the Bible in mythology.

But what was replaced was only a superficial shell.

For Lingyi, it was just like taking over the other person's name, but there was no other connection.

Or in other words, Lingyi has an extra skin suit of the God of the Bible.

In Patchouli's personal space in the main god space - in the library, the magic lamps emit bright light, and the bookshelves are filled with the faint aroma of parchment and magic.

Lingyi leaned on a desk, a soft yet mysterious power of faith condensed in his hands.

The light flowed through her fingertips like liquid starlight, carrying a reassuring warmth.

"I clearly feel that faith is the most likely to be manipulated..."

She muttered softly, her emerald eyes glancing at Patchouli beside her, her tone somewhat deliberate.

These words were obviously directed at Patchouli beside her. Her voice was just right, making it sound like she was talking to herself, while ensuring that Miss Witch could hear them clearly.

Patchouli was holding a magic book and referring to something while processing the results of this mission.

"......" After hearing this, she glanced sideways, a hint of helplessness flashed in her purple eyes, and she sighed softly.

His fingertips gently stroked the spells on the pages, and his tone was a mixture of scholarly rigor and doting on his good friend.

"I won't explain the principle behind this to you in detail, since you won't understand it after all."

"In short, if you are a being born out of faith, or if you have a strong reliance on the power of faith, then your intuition is indeed correct."

She closed the book. "On the contrary, the inheritance of the power of faith is precisely the most superficial power, the one that is most difficult for you to assimilate."

Seeing Ling Yi frown slightly, Patchouli switched to a more intuitive analogy: "Let me explain it in a way you can understand - it's like the relationship between water and oil. The power of faith is water. When it encounters a being that is also [water], it naturally blends easily and has an impact. However, if it encounters [oil], it is difficult to penetrate and assimilate."

"I see."

Lingyi nodded thoughtfully, but in an instant, her expression suddenly changed and she cast an unhappy look at Patchouli.

"But, Patchy, I don't like your condescending attitude just now. Take it back!"

There was a hint of menace in her tone.

Patchouli was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes at her unhappily, her tone filled with a hint of doting helplessness: "Stop making trouble, add your points, don't make trouble here."

"Tsk." Ling Yi clicked her tongue, a malicious smile curling up at the corner of her mouth. "It seems that a certain witch didn't beg for mercy enough that night?"

Before she finished her words, she flashed and pounced on Patchouli like a cheetah.

"——! Don't jump on me, idiot!"

Patchouli exclaimed, her purple hair scattered in her panic, and her cheeks suddenly turned a rare blush.

The magic book slipped from her hands, and the sound of their playfulness echoed in the library. The candlelight danced on their intertwined figures, outlining a warm and intimate picture.

.............

At the same time that Ling Yi accepted part of the inheritance from the God of the Bible—

"The United Nations, the insects sitting high in the halls... This has never been what I wanted. I have never considered attacking my compatriots. In the past, we fought side by side, creating this glorious civilization together, and banishing the shadows brought by Honkai and the Herrscher."

"But, United Nations, you betrayed me, you betrayed us all! You stole the forbidden power brought by Honkai and lied to your compatriots and warriors—"

"Humanity now has only one last chance for revival, insects—if you can't seize it, then let me do it!"
