Translator: 549690339
“In the past centuries, in the dimensions that you know, there have been several different forces that have been fighting for the right to rule the human world.” Wu Di’s story began.
But Feng bujue did not plan to be just a listener.””Hey, hey … You’re an extension of the ‘yadali crown’, a game prize from the 1980s, right? What’s going on with this development?”
“Hehehe … You’ll understand when you hear this.” Woody pushed his glasses up again and continued,”however, this war is destined to be a long and drawn-out seesaw battle … Although everyone was looking forward to it in 1999, Vincent had to rely on that kid Lu Kun to rewrite the events recorded in the book of Revelation …”
“Er … Who’s Lu Kun?” “Also …” Feng bujue asked,”the events recorded in the book of Revelation, could it be referring to the Millennium-old theory of the end of the world?”
“Well … It’s not really the end of the world. Even if the Four Knights come to clean up the surface, humans might not go extinct.” Wu Di replied,”as for Lu Kun … He’s considered one of the strongest existences in the human world. Speaking of which … Most of the strongest in the human world are otakus …”!!
When Woody said this, he had a thoughtful expression on his face. He paused for a moment before he continued,””Anyway … Those things don’t have much to do with you, and it’s all in the past. Let’s continue talking …”
“Oh.” Feng bujue nodded. Because he felt that the trap that the man had mentioned was too big, he did not continue asking.
“Ten years after the ‘apocalypse’ was stopped, the human world held a ‘game of candidates’ at the behest of the ‘highest will’. Woody chuckled.”Hehehe … And the people in charge of organizing that game were us four scumbags of hell.”
“Wait a minute …” Feng bujue’s expression changed.”There really is a so-called ‘four jerks of hell’?”
“Hehe … You’ve heard about us from cat … Oh no… Gu Chen, right?” Wu Di asked with a smile.
“I thought he was scolding someone.” Feng bujue said,”but is this a real title? Come to think of it … There are three other guys who are as bad as you. Who else could it be other than Vincent?”
“Simon and Sid,” Wu Di replied.
“That ‘Simon’?” Feng bujue raised both his hands and made a quotation mark. He doesn’t seem to be on the same path as you. ”
“Hehe … You and Wang Tanzhi don’t look like the same kind of people.” Wu Di replied.
“Hmm …” Brother Jue was speechless.
“As for Sid … You’ve never seen him before, so I won’t introduce him.” After Woody said that, he paused for a second and continued,”let’s talk about the game …
“The so-called ‘game of candidates’ is a kind of ‘ritual’ that has been going on since the era of the gods. It was related to life and death, the past and the future. It was the Beacon of fate, the link of time and space. Its significance to this world could not be described with words …
“There can only be one winner in this game … However, there can still be many participants. We call those who participate in the game ‘candidates’; Without a doubt, those who were qualified to become candidates were not ordinary people … Each candidate had extraordinary abilities.
“When these people compete in the ‘game of candidates’ and determine the only winner, that person will become the ‘chosen’, or in other words, a person recognized by God.
“The ‘chosen’ are existences that can ‘push the era’,’change fate’, and ‘kill gods and demons’; Every century, at most one or two such people would appear, and they would usually leave behind some well-known legends in the human world. For example, during the war of Olympus, there was a Spartan who became a candidate. In the end, he ended the war between man and God almost by himself, and it was resolved by force. ”
“Are you talking about the bald man with the two kitchen knives chained to the metal?” Feng bujue seemed to know who the man was talking about.
“Hehehe …” Woody once again avoided the question with a sneer and did not answer it directly. He continued as if nothing had happened,”it doesn’t matter who it is. You just need to have a concept of the ‘chosen one’. After all … You are also one of the candidates.”
“Oh?” Be it confidence or conceit, Feng bujue was not surprised by this.”So, based on what you’re saying … Thriller Paradise is the ‘game of candidates’ that you mentioned?”
Thriller Paradise … Is an experimental subject.” Woody replied,”if it’s successful, it will be used as a model for ‘rituals’ for a long time.”
“Then … What if it doesn’t succeed?” Feng bujue asked.
“That’s not something you need to worry about …” Woody suddenly changed the topic. He lowered his voice and said,”at least … Not now.”
“What do you mean?” Brother Jue caught something from the latter half of the sentence.
“Hehehe … Sorry, I can’t comment on that.” Wu Di laughed.
“Your habit of chuckling … Oh no… Chuckling every time you mention something important …” Feng bujue said.”That is quite a cheap move …”
“Hehehe … Thank you.” Woody did not seem to be ashamed. Instead, he was proud of it. He even thanked her and then changed the topic.”Let’s talk about Thriller Paradise …”
“In the past, the game of candidates was generally more brutal. Although the form was different each time, in the end … It was a game of killing between people.
“The people of ancient times all had their own beliefs. They valued glory and worshipped gods … In order to obtain the title of ‘chosen one’, they would not hesitate to fight to the death.
“But later, humans changed … You can say that they became smarter, or you can say that they became bad … Although they still revered God, they also knew to’ fight for themselves ‘.
“Later on, humans lost their faith, and the game became more and more difficult to play. We even had to use threats and promises to force the outstanding talents in the human world to participate in the game. Sometimes, we even had to go to the parallel universe to find people to make up the numbers.
Just as Woody said that …
“Ha!” Feng bujue laughed out loud.”When it comes to threats and promises, I’ve experienced it myself.”
“Hehe … I’m already being very polite to you. After all, we’re not enemies.” Wu Di laughed.
“What if we become enemies in the future?” Feng bujue glanced at the man and said in a profound tone,”
Hearing this, Woody’s expression suddenly changed, and he laughed strangely.”Hehehe … After you hear me out, you might have an answer …”
