Chapter 170 The Origin of the Creator

The origin of the Creator Goddess was somewhat unexpected to Hao Ren, but not by much.

Having understood what an unbelievable existence a "True God" was, he had mentally prepared himself for the Creator Goddess's background. He had even hypnotically reinforced a concept deep within himself: no matter how the Creator Goddess was born, no matter how she was connected to the high-level deities of the Xiling or Star Domains, it was acceptable and understandable because True Gods – True Gods never reasoned with you.

In fact, they didn't even reason with physics...

All the rules that humans could understand were byproducts of these super-powered beings, including the parts that could not be understood, which also could not exceed this scope. Because he understood this principle long ago, Hao Ren did not express any surprise after hearing Raven 12345's story. He was just curious about what arrangements his superior and his superiors' superiors had made after investigating this extraordinary secret.

"The leaders of Shadow City are very concerned about this matter—in fact, they have always been concerned," Raven 12345 said. "But you can't expect them to handle this matter personally. Their responsibilities determine that they must focus their energy on more important matters. The expedition to destroy the Abyss is not over yet. The Prime Gods are resisting the end of the world at the edge of the ordered universe. They will not have time to deal with the 'minor problems' happening here for at least a thousand years."

Hao Ren couldn't help but feel speechless: "Tsk, minor problems..."

"For the countless universes of the entire void, this is indeed a minor problem," Raven 12345 glanced at him. "But for this universe and the countless lives in the Dream Plane, this problem concerns life and death, so I am standing here, and you are standing here—everyone has their own responsibilities, don't forget that."

Hao Ren looked at the goddess sister in front of him with some surprise. He did not expect that the other party would also have such righteous and stern words.

"Several Majesty and many Prime Gods need to protect the entire ordered side, and we need to protect this universe. Everyone has their own things to do," Raven 12345 did not seem to care about the change in Hao Ren's expression and continued to speak to herself. "After confirming that the Creator Goddess came from a drop of blood from Mother Ibtis, there are a few things that need to be explained to you."

"First of all, although the Creator Goddess is currently missing, she is definitely not dead—one hundred and one percent certain, she is not dead!"

Vivian had just recovered from a series of information bombardments and couldn't help but blurt out, "Really?!"

"Although I was a little surprised, this can be confirmed," Raven 12345 nodded. "After confirming the source of the Creator Goddess, the Supreme God of Prophecy made a more accurate prediction. It can now be determined that the Creator Goddess is only sleeping in the depths of the Dream Plane. Although her state is extremely close to death, for a True God, this state is equal to being alive. As long as there is an opportunity, the probability of her resurrection is as high as ninety percent."

Hearing this definite news, Hao Ren couldn't help but feel a little confused—although from the beginning, he and Raven 12345 suspected whether the Creator Goddess had truly fallen, and assumed the Creator Goddess's "True God is immortal" state, this was just a hypothesis after all. Because they had never found a definite True God reaction in the Dream Plane, Hao Ren and his team had long been working under the premise that "the Creator Goddess has fallen." But now, definite news finally came—the Creator Goddess is really still alive!

Raven 12345 paused for a few seconds to give everyone some time to buffer, and then said: "Secondly, since the Creator Goddess's power comes from a Star Domain god, our 'rescue plan' for her must be changed accordingly. After all, the Star Domain gods and the Xiling gods still have differences in terms of life forms and technology trees. Hao Ren, I'll give you this. This is what the higher-ups sent down. It will play a role at a critical moment."

A silver-white metal box appeared out of thin air in front of Raven 12345 and opened silently. Hao Ren leaned over and looked curiously at what was in the box, while Raven 12345's voice continued to come: "The situation in the Dream Plane is too special. A True God like me can't directly intervene, but you have to face a monster that is almost a True God in there—the Lord of Mad Whispers. Frankly speaking, your current power is a little insufficient. So it seems that the best choice is to first find the Creator Goddess, and then resurrect her. You and she will join forces to destroy the Lord of Mad Whispers. However, even if the Creator Goddess is resurrected, she will definitely be in a weak state. In addition, she does not have enough control over her own power and lacks the knowledge necessary for a True God. Therefore, her power is still not enough, so we must find a way to make the Creator Goddess stronger. Strictly speaking, you must guide her to become stronger. This is to let her save herself..."

Raven 12345 was talking on and on, but in fact, Hao Ren was not listening to what the goddess sister was saying at all, because most of his attention was focused on the things in the metal box, and he was so dumbfounded that he couldn't say anything.

There were stacks and stacks of thick leather books. The symbols on the covers and spines did not belong to any kind of writing, but their meanings could directly enter people's minds:

*Basic Textbook for Star Domain Gods (Elementary School, Divine Religion Edition)*, *Introduction to the Control of Divine Power*, *Genesis Exercise Book (Introductory Edition)*, *Five Hundred Million Years to Become a God and Three Hundred Million Years of Simulation*, *Basic Operations and Diagrams for the End of the World*, *One Hundred Thousand Whys*…

These things shining with dazzling golden light almost blinded Hao Ren's eyes. Lily next to him simply jumped up, while shouting that her dog eyes were blind.

"This... so what the hell are these?" Nangong Sanba, who was just watching the excitement from the side, finally couldn't bear the impact of the world view shattering and reconstruction and opened his mouth, "Training materials for gods before they take up their posts?"

Raven 12345 nodded: "Yes, yes."

Everyone: "..."

Although no one spoke, everyone had a "you're f**king kidding me" expression on their faces.

"Why does everyone have this reaction when they see these things for the first time..." Raven 12345 covered her forehead a little unbearably. "Didn't I say just now that the Creator Goddess has to save herself? She has to be able to save herself first before she can save the world—but she's a wild goddess who hasn't even gone to elementary school, how can she save herself! She almost killed herself in a fight with the Lord of Mad Whispers, so we must first find a way to make the Creator Goddess stronger. How to make her stronger? Knowledge is power! Tutoring! Reading books and self-study! Figuring out how to control one's own divine power, isn't that already a great success? After this great success, all that's left is to aim at the Lord of Mad Whispers and fight!"

Hao Ren's mouth twitched as he listened to the goddess sister's theory. Although every sentence in this theory sounded reasonable, he just didn't want to believe it?

Even the knowledgeable and experienced Vivian's eyes twitched, and after a long time, she squeezed out: "So what we have to do is go to the Dream Plane to find the Creator Goddess, and then... force her to read?"

"First persuade her to learn, if she can't learn, force her to study, and if that doesn't work, lock her in a small dark room. She must do her homework every day. If she doesn't finish her homework, she's not allowed to eat. Before the Lord of Mad Whispers escapes, at least let her pass the primary certification..."

Frankly speaking, Hao Ren felt that for this job, Raven 12345 could just go to any high school on Earth and kidnap a class teacher, and they would do better than him...

But these words were just thoughts in his mind. When he really opened his mouth, he still had to talk about normal people's topics, after all, he couldn't be led astray by this goddess sister who had something wrong with her brain: "Don't you think this is very problematic in terms of feasibility... If I had the ability to hold down a True God's head and make her do her homework, I would have single-handedly overturned the Lord of Mad Whispers!"

"So I'm going to give you another thing." Raven 12345 snapped her fingers, and a metal box appeared out of thin air again, but this metal box was much smaller than that box of textbooks. It was only a foot square and looked like a book box.

In fact, it was really a book box: after the box was opened, Hao Ren saw a large book with a black cover lying quietly inside.

Okay, another book...

After seeing the amazing box of teaching materials before, Hao Ren and his friends had already undergone a round of three-view assessment, so at this time, they were all in a state of high sensitivity to anything from the gods that looked like a book. Seeing that Raven 12345's "secret weapon" was still a book, even the consistently mature and stable Hasse almost blurted out, "Can't you gods take out something else?"

However, after seeing the cover of the black-covered book, Hao Ren discovered one thing: the style of this book seemed to be different from that box of divine elementary school textbooks.

The symbols on its surface were constantly jumping, and their meanings were constantly changing. Moreover, every time he stared at them, a new piece of information would be transmitted into his mind, but no matter how they changed, the general meaning of these symbols was very close, that is, something like "Bible," "Canon," or "Prayer Book."

It was solemn and dignified, and even conveyed a heavy force that was difficult to breathe. Just looking at its black cover, Hao Ren felt as if he was facing an ancient and incomparably great power.

This was definitely not a textbook.

He couldn't help but speak: "This is..."

"A Bible that Mother Ibtis once used—of course, it's just a 'fake' made by extracting power from it, but for you and that Creator Goddess, and even for a grassroots True God of my level, there is no difference between a fake and a real thing, anyway, they are both at the level of 'holy crap, what kind of black technology is this'," Raven 12345 smiled. "The Creator Goddess has been sleeping for many years, and she has had too much contact with the Lord of Mad Whispers, so there should be some problems with her spirit. In addition, her education level is low, so it is difficult to say whether she will cooperate with you obediently after contacting you, so we have prepared this for you. It is in the same vein as the power of the Creator Goddess, and even purer. If you take it with you, it is equivalent to having an aura of Charm +10 and Persuasion +10 in front of the Creator Goddess, so as long as you don't screw up, she has no reason not to trust you."
