Watching Aina's determined appearance, Shen Sui fell into deep self-doubt.
Could it be that I remembered it wrong?
Do I really have some kind of Breaking the Boundary item?
However, this function in the game belongs to the game mechanics and doesn't require any item to invade someone else's save file.
[Alice was quite surprised. Elm City indeed had Claude's Treasure Box, but from Claude's indifferent attitude, there shouldn't be any particularly valuable item inside, right?]
[Alice felt there must be some conspiracy involved.]
[Aina, however, was absolutely certain that both the War God Church and the Daylight Church were after this item that could break the world's barrier.]
[Alice inquired about the source of this information.]
Shen Sui then saw a very complex chain of information.
Aina learned about this information from the Daylight Church.
And the Daylight Church obtained it from a spy in the War God Church.
But where did the War God Church get this information?
At this point, Alice could no longer continue questioning. And at this moment, Freymia finally made up her mind to contact her daughter.
[Aina was overjoyed, feeling the familiar voice coming from the puppet at her waist.]
[Alice saw Aina's demeanor change, and although it was a bit strange, she wisely chose not to disturb Aina and instead chatted with Oshana.]
[Oshana asked about Anna's whereabouts.]
["Hmm, there are some matters she needs to handle," Alice said, unable to reveal that Anna was helping out the Twilight Legion.]
[After understanding her own heart, Alice, who originally only planned to help Shen Sui reconstruct his body, now had her own life goals.]
[Following her heart, she planned to completely destroy the Master of Thunder Church.]
Shen Sui looked at Alice's inner thoughts, knowing that this was a very arduous endeavor.
It's not something that can be achieved just by killing the Master of Thunder.
Complete destruction means there would be no opportunity for rebirth.
Even back then, the Twilight of the Gods initiated by Vivian ultimately couldn't eradicate the belief in the Gods in this world.
It's just that some things, being too ahead of their time, might backfire.
Vivian's ideology was too advanced for the Dawn Continent at the time, and she accomplished it too quickly.
People hadn't even realized what harm the Gods occupying the fifteenth tier posed to the entire continent, yet Vivian and Shen Sui had already eliminated all the Gods.
Shen Sui, then with the mindset of a player, didn't consider what problems it might cause; he just thought he'd complete the game by killing them.
What followed, history has provided the answer.
However, now Shen Sui has a way to prevent the Gods from Recovering after being killed—by making them into Life Cards.
Their Divinity is stored in the Life Cards. In terms of the law, they are still alive, so naturally, they can't Recover.
But as always, even if the Gods are dead, it doesn't mean people's beliefs have changed.
Alice wants to completely destroy the Master of Thunder Church, which isn't a task that can be completed by simply assassinating high-level combatants.
However, seeing his child have a cause to strive for, Shen Sui still felt very gratified.
[You summoned Arianna.]
[Arianna's figure appeared behind you.]
["Honorable my master, what would you have me do?" Arianna said humbly.]
["Does the War God Church have plans for Elm City?" you asked.]
["They sent me some information, suggesting Elm City holds a very powerful Divine Artifact capable of opening the world's barrier, banishing powerful Gods. They plan to use this artifact against Daylight," Miss Death God answered truthfully.]
Under Shen Sui's arrangement, Arianna temporarily took over the War God's duties. Although half of her Divinity had been stripped by Vivian, she was still a Main God, and her disguise was perfect.
["Where did they get this information?"
Arianna fell into a brief silence and then quickly gave Shen Sui the answer: "A man named Diluo, he's the bishop of the Master of Thunder Church and also a spy for the War God Church."]
Could this matter also be related to the Master of Thunder Church?
Shen Sui felt that the situation was becoming increasingly complicated.
["Recently, the War God Church received information from him, saying that the Master of Thunder plans to take advantage of the friction and conflict between the two powerful Churches of Daylight and War God to retrieve the Divine Artifact from Elm City and use it against the other Gods," Arianna said.]
["You don't seem to be afraid," you laughed, "If this artifact is taken by someone else, you might be the one exiled."]
["I already feel nonexistent," Arianna said with indifference. She had already given up being a deity, only preserving her power out of fear that other Main Gods might crave her Divinity and devour her.]
Shen Sui looked at the information Arianna conveyed.
Could this really also involve the Master of Thunder Church?
Then, the situation in Elm City might become very complicated.
Shen Sui glanced at Alice, who was adventuring through Elm Forest in the Dueling Device, and didn't stop her from heading to Elm City.
This was both a crisis and an opportunity.
Since you want to completely shatter the church's rule over this world, let me give you a powerful declaration.
Let the witch inheriting the name of Twilight become famous in Elm City.
Shen Sui's fingers quickly typed commands.
[Alice received your reminder, a bit surprised: "Huh? Claude, where did you get this information?"]
[Alice was puzzled. She greeted Claude every day, and although he always seemed indifferent, she was very sure about this matter.]
["I naturally have my methods. So, what's your plan?" you chuckled, "Will you abandon this Treasure Box and come back after the dust settles, or will you open it now?"]
Unless certified by Shen Sui, no one else could ever destroy or open Shen Sui's Treasure Box, which, like the liberation in a duel, was a game mechanic. Therefore, the safest way for Alice was to bide her time and open the box after things had settled.
[Alice fell into thought.]
[In the past, she would have decisively chosen to bide her time.]
Shen Sui rolled his eyes.
Really?
I doubt it.
[However, Alice suddenly had a new idea.]
["Claude, can you make an item that looks very impressive? A one-time use is fine, but it must look really formidable," Alice gestured as she asked.]
