I Am God!

Lillian touched the old gospel book, but she didn't know what it was. She just felt that it seemed familiar.

At this time, a voice came from behind Lilian.

"Hello, Prophet Lilian!"

Lilian turned around in surprise. She didn't understand when someone appeared behind her, and she didn't feel anything.

Then, from her perspective, she saw a light that represented the rhythm of human life.

The opponent's vitality is not very strong, but the radiation of another kind of power is like a huge lighthouse, lighting up the entire dock and river bank.

Lilian had never seen such a scene before. This must be an existence so powerful that she could not imagine it.

That is an apostle between man and God.

The other party stood in the center of the light and said, "Welcome back."

Those words were full of expectation, as if he had known Lillian for a long time.

Lillian asked the other party: "Who are you? Do you know me?"

She shook her head and said, "Sorry, I'm not a prophet."

She wanted to leave, but the other party moved first.

The other party came closer and talked as he walked. During the walk, Lillian did not hear the sound of the snake's tail rubbing, but the sound of footsteps.

"I'm not talking about the omnipotent prophet as many people think."

"It's the blind female prophet, an ancient inherited profession, and the beginning of the path of the witch."

"As for who I am."

The other party stopped and told Lillian.

"You bumped into me on the road many years ago, don't you remember?"

Lilian thought for a while and suddenly remembered who the other party was.

She raised her head sharply and pointed at him.

"It's you?"

The other party was the one who left the shadow bead. The bead recorded the scene of the witch of unknown generation heading to the Lost Kingdom, and even recorded the scene of the appearance of the giant god in the sky.

And she gained this magical power because of seeing that scene.

She didn't understand why the other party, why would such a powerful existence pay attention to someone like herself?

The visitor is Gamer.

Gamer looked at Lilian's familiar face, which seemed to overlap with the person in his memory.

"Weather Prophet Lillian, I have been following you all these years."

"No matter what situation you encounter, whether it is gain or loss, even if it is temporary addiction, you will eventually be able to find yourself."

"Many people in the wasteland and the yellow sand country are grateful to you. You have used your power well."

Lillian laughed and said mockingly.

"Find yourself?"

"I am just a person who is dragged down by fate, a person who doesn't know how to face life and just goes with the flow."

"I'm just an ordinary person, an extremely ordinary person."

Gamer said: "When you gain everything and lose everything, but you can still maintain an ordinary heart, you are already extraordinary."

"So I'm looking forward to the day when you truly have power and your own destiny."

"What can you do when you are no longer pushed by the crowd and the world to go further."

Gamer's eyes were shining, and he seemed to have found the power to cut off the reincarnation of desire from Lilian.

"The power of the snake man is concentrated in the eyes. When the transformation into the witch occurs, it also starts from the eyes."

"Lose your eyes and become the eyes of a giant."

"This is the witch."

"If you figure it out, you can come to me."

"A man who is proficient in the transformation of life and wisdom power is coming to this city. He can help you."

"At that time you will not only gain new eyes, but you will also be able to control your own destiny."

Lillian was holding an old gospel book in her hand. She felt that the words of the man who suddenly appeared in front of her were a bit incomprehensible, and she shook her head.

"I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood to think about this right now."

She was in a mess now, and she had a lot of doubts that needed to be answered. Everything that happened back then didn't seem to be over, and many things didn't seem to be what she imagined.

She passed by Gamer and took out the bead from her pocket.

"What you left behind."

Gamer looked at it, but did not take it back.

"This is yours."

"It records your story, the story of the Yaen family witch Liz."

Lillian: "What do you mean?"

She understood something in a daze: "Her Highness Liz, the Witch of the Sky, is also a member of the Yaen family?"

Lilian had never dared to think that such a noble being as the witch actually came from her own family. If so, why did they never know about it, and the witch Liz had never contacted this family?

However, Gamer did not say.

He just told Lilian: "There are some things that it's useless for me to tell you, and you won't believe it. You have to find the answer on your own."

Lilian left the transportation company's warehouse and came to the road.

She asked a passerby while holding the booklet in her hand. The passerby looked at it for a while and said.

"This is the gospel booklet for the seventh reincarnation of the witch Liz. That was a long time ago, and now it is the era of the Eighth Highness Liz."

"However, some strange things have happened in the kingdom of the sky giant recently. Everyone is very panicked. There are many people kneeling in front of the temple to pray every day."

"I heard that His Highness Liz VIII is likely to enter reincarnation and go to the Kingdom of God to listen to God's will."

Only then did she realize that this was the gospel book from the last time the witch entered reincarnation.

She held the Gospel book and looked at it thoughtfully.

Lilian walked through the streets absentmindedly. She left the dock and passed under the high walls of the former shipbuilding workshop.

She walked through the square where the workers gathered, passed through the narrow lanes, and once again saw the slums where they used to live.

At this time, she once again heard the voice of the believer who distributed the gospel booklet.

"The Chief Divine Attendant of the Thunder Temple, Mr. Como, has distributed the gospel to everyone for free. Come and get it quickly and listen to His Highness Liz VIII..."

Lilian stepped forward and said to the man.

"Give me one."

The person handing out the brochures was a young man. After hearing this, he immediately turned around and handed her a brochure. When he raised his head, he realized that this was a mature, beautiful and elegantly dressed lady.

The young man suddenly blushed when he looked at the other person's face, and quickly lowered his head and made a praying gesture.

"Here you go, may God protect and guide you!"

Lilian touched the booklet and asked about its contents. Only then did the young man realize that the noble and beautiful lady in front of him was blind, and he suddenly felt a little regretful.

The young man interpreted the gospel in the booklet, talking about the greatness of the giant god in the sky, and how the Temple of Thunder and Her Highness the Witch guided the believers.

The young man said: "As long as we obey God's guidance, we can get rid of pain and gain happiness."

After hearing this, Lilian asked the young man.

"Then why was this a slum a few decades ago and is still a slum today? Where is God's guidance?"

“What exactly did God guide? Or are these really God’s guidance?”

The young man hesitated and was speechless, because he was also from this slum. His grandparents, father, mother and family were all believers, but even if he dedicated all his faith to God, he still could not get out of this slum. A slum.

Lillian asked him: "Where were the people who lived here before?"

When she asked, she also named some names, which were all former neighbors and acquaintances of the Yaen family.

However, the response I got was: "A long time ago there was a fight between gangs here, and many people died. Those people are all dead."

Only then did Lilian understand why she didn't feel those familiar scents and figures when she came back: "Oh, so that's it!"

The young man asked: "Why do you ask this?"

Lilian lowered her head: "A long time ago, I also lived here, but unfortunately I did not die in that disaster."

Lilian left, and the young man looked at her back and wondered if she had said the wrong thing.

"What do you mean, unfortunately, you didn't die in that disaster?"

"Shouldn't he be lucky enough not to die in that disaster?"

He scratched his hair.

Suddenly, it started to rain.

The rain came suddenly and extremely fast, soaking the boy to the skin, and he could only run awkwardly on the street in the rain.

The gospel book he held was also soaked and wrinkled.

——

The rainy season in Thunder City seems to have come early.

This rain does not distinguish between poor people or nobles, ordinary people or extraordinary people, it all falls on their heads.

At this moment, thousands of believers were crawling outside the Thunder Temple, blocking the square and streets.

because.

Recently, people have discovered that the cloud mountains deep in Thunder Swamp have begun to gradually dissipate, shrinking towards the depths of the sky.

It's like leaving this country and this swampy lake.

This made all the believers of the Sky Titan feel panic and fear, and they gathered here in worry, hoping that the Thunder Temple could explain the reason for this and give God's instructions and will.

These people were soaked in the heavy rain and shouted towards the temple.

“Why, why is the Kingdom of God dissipating?”

“Is God leaving us?”

"Servant of God, please tell us why?"

"Your Highness the Witch, please convey God's will."

The panic was contagious, and questioning eyes were cast from all directions.

In the temple.

The former Godly Attendant of Como and now the chief of the temple was standing under the rain eaves and looking outside, his expression extremely ugly.

He regarded mortal believers as ants in the dust, but he did not expect that one day he would be forced into a desperate situation by mortals. Now he must give an explanation to all the believers in this country, an explanation that makes them believe.

The Chief Divine Attendant of Como turned around and came to the witch's palace.

Her Royal Highness Liz VIII was sitting behind the curtain, dressing herself up in front of a gilt bronze mirror.

She still looks young, beautiful and radiant, but if you look closely, the slight wrinkles at the corners of her eyes already mean that she has begun to age, revealing the secret that she is not a real witch.

After waiting outside, Como received permission to see the witch alone.

He was still respectful when in front of others, but when the two of them were alone, his appearance changed.

He knew all the details about the "witch" in front of him, so it was naturally difficult for him to feel a sense of awe.

He said to the witch: "More and more people are gathering outside. The changes in the depths of Thunder Swamp are also accelerating. We are under increasing pressure and doubts."

The witch sat and asked Como who was crawling outside: "So what are you going to do?"

Como raised his head, his eyes turning cold for a moment.

"The day of reincarnation of the witch must be brought forward. We need Your Highness Liz to bring back God's will!"

The comb in Liz VIII's hand behind the curtain suddenly fell down, and she did not pick it up.

After a while, she spoke.

"Como, you know."

"I can't possibly bring back God's will, because I've never been a true witch."

Cuomo: "As long as people believe that you are, it's okay to believe in what the new witch says."

Liz VIII smiled: "What if I say I don't want to?"

Como: "No one can resist the call of God, not even the witch."

Liz VIII looked at the Como Divine Attendant, and then looked at herself in the mirror. These are two human beings who respectively represent the beliefs of the Thunder Temple and the Sky Titan.

She knew this day would come eventually, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.

"I am not God's witch, and you are not God's servant."

"We are hypocritical servants of desire and false witches."

After hearing this, Cuomo said nonchalantly.

"Who makes God not care about us? Even if we offer our faith, He will throw it away like garbage!"

"In this case, why can't I follow my inner desires and truly live for myself?"

Liz VIII looked at Como. Knowing her final outcome, she seemed to be able to see the person in front of her clearly now, and even her true face.

"live for yourself?"

"You have never controlled your desires and yourself, you are just a slave of desires."

Como didn't speak, just waiting for Liz VIII's answer.

Her Royal Highness Liz VIII stood up. She looked at this gorgeous palace that belonged to her. It seemed that there was everything here, and everything she wanted seemed to be within easy reach.

But when she actually lived here, she discovered that she could not obtain only inner peace, and even though her material needs were met, her inner emptiness became more and more intense day by day.

The intelligent species has always been a life that not only lives on the needs of the body, but also lives on the needs of the soul.

pity.

Those things that could fill her heart have been lost long ago and can never be regained.

She walked around the palace and finally leaned on the bed, looking at the rainy city outside.

She suddenly turned around and said to Comeau.

"I want to go out and take a look."

Como nodded, as if he didn't want to completely fall out with the "Her Highness the Witch" at this last moment. It would be best if she could be obedient.

"As long as you don't leave the city, and you can't."

In the dark passage.

Liz VIII walked through alone with a lantern. This was not the first time she walked this road.

She walked to the end and emerged on a dark path.

Looking in the distance, you can see a square and a smoke-emitting workshop.

She blew out the lamp and walked on the road holding an umbrella. The raindrops hit the umbrella. The more she walked forward, the more memories of the past came out bit by bit.

When she was a child, she smiled and ran here with her younger sister carrying a woven rattan basket. The two followed her elder brother, listened to his scolding, and then ran back honestly.

The eldest brother walked into the shipbuilding workshop, and the two of them collected old clothes at the door and took one piece back to be washed. She counted the money for each piece.

At night, the family sat together to eat. They would talk about what happened during the day, while the younger brother sat curiously and listened.

"One copper point, two copper points..."

"Hahaha, brother, look at her, she's obsessed with money."

"Don't you like money?"

"I'm someone who wants to make a lot of money, and I won't look down on one or two copper points!"

"We will start from here, and we must become a master of human beings."

In a daze, Liz VIII finally walked to the former warehouse of Yaen Transport Company.

She opened the warehouse and entered inside, lit the inferior oil lamp, and the dim light illuminated the table, while she lay on the bed next to her.

The place is small and rundown, and the beds are shabby.

But while lying here, Liz VIII felt an inexplicable peace of mind. She stared at the light of the oil lamp, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

It seems that the eldest brother is also sitting on the table at this moment, smiling at him as usual.

But at this time, she saw that the old gospel book she had hidden in the secret compartment known only to her brothers and sisters had been taken out and just placed on the table.

She stood up doubtfully and picked up the gospel booklet on the table.

Then, a letter fell out.

Seeing the signature above, Liz VIII read it out directly.

"Lillian?"

She took the letter and read it word by word on the table. Although there were only a few short sentences, she turned over each word over and over, as if she wanted to write down every stroke.

After reading it, Liz VIII suddenly laughed and burst into tears.

She sat in the room for a long time, waiting until it was almost dawn before walking outside.

——

Liesl VIII stood on the edge of the pier, looked around, and then saw a ship docked nearby.

Liz VIII came to the boat and saw a sudden strong wind blowing on the river without making any move, pushing the boat to the middle of the river.

At this time, a figure emerged from the surroundings and rushed towards Liz VIII.

"Hurry up and catch up."

"Catch her."

"faster."

But the ship was getting faster and faster, and while it was moving faster, strange clouds and mist filled the surrounding area.

Although it was just a small cloud, people could no longer find them.

At this time, the Chief Divine Attendant of the Thunder Temple, Como, also rushed over. As a third-order peak powerful person, he searched everywhere but could not find any trace of the Witch Liz VIII.

He returned to Yaen Transportation with a livid face, not understanding what happened.

"what happened?"

On the other side, Liz VIII sat on the boat like this until there was one more person on the boat.

The two people looked at each other without saying a word, just following the boat floating on the river and following the waves.

Lilian looked at Liz VIII with those empty eyes: "Second sister, it is you as expected. I didn't expect you to become the witch, Liz VIII as people call her."

Based on Gamel's words, Lilian also found the secret of the past from the shadow beads: "It turns out that there was no witch of the sky from the beginning. It was just that after the Thunder Temple told a big lie, she had to Perpetuate this lie indefinitely.”

Liz VIII also looked at Lilian very carefully. After a while, she smiled and said, "Lillian, are you here to seek revenge from me?"

Lilian asked: "Everyone who knew us is dead. Why did you do this? Where is your little brother?"

Liz VIII said without any concealment: "If you want to become a witch, you have to get rid of your past identity. Everyone who knows me must die, and my elder brothers and younger brothers cannot live. I just didn't expect you, Lilian, to be alive. They told me that you Dead too."

Lillian: "Did you know before?"

Liz VIII: "Not only did I know, I also agreed."

Lillian asked: "Why?"

Liz VIII chuckled and turned to look at the river that was taking them far away.

"We can't escape, we can't hide from this force that is like the torrent of the world."

"Then why can't I use your death to fulfill my dream?"

"Since I can't change this damn fate, why can't I just enjoy it?"

"That's becoming a witch. Who can resist such a temptation?"

Liesl VIII turned back to look at Lilian. She thought that Lilian was the most furious. This sister, who had always been violent and impulsive, would throw her to the ground angrily as before, and would avenge her brother and sister just like before. The younger brother takes revenge.

But at this moment, Lilian in front of her remained motionless, just looking at her quietly.

The eyes were empty and lifeless, with no emotion at all.

Her laughter slowly died down and ended in a sigh.

"You have changed, you are different from before."

"You and my eldest brother both said it before."

"People who live at the bottom don't have to follow the rules, because there are no rules there."

"We are not humans, we are beasts."

"We must work hard to climb up and become a person, a bright and decent person, a truly alive person."

Liz VIII looked at Lilian with doubts in her eyes.

"but."

"Why have we all become humans? We wear bright clothes, eat the best food, and live in the most beautiful palaces."

"But there are still traces of the beast in the body, and you are living according to the way of the beast?"

Lilian couldn't understand it before, but now she looked at Liz VIII and understood why.

"Maybe we were wrong from the beginning."

"We live at the bottom. We do lack many material things, but we have never been beasts."

"Because we know what we should do and what we shouldn't do, and we have a bottom line as a people."

“We may give up a lot of things by not following the rules in pursuit of something.”

“But some things never give up.”

"Those who give up their bottom line and follow their desires are beasts, no matter how well-dressed they are, no matter how rich they are."

Lilian looked at her second sister and her voice became calmer and calmer, as if she had finally solved the doubts in her heart for many years.

“We give up more in order to gain something.”

“We went from having nothing on one level to having nothing on another level.”

Liz VIII saw Lilian standing up and taking something out of her arms.

She did not run away, but asked Lilian: "Is it the weapon that kills me?"

However, Lilian finally took out a device that controlled the magic crystal steamboat and placed it in the hands of Liz VIII.

"People will not kill their own blood relatives, no matter what the circumstances."

Lilian left and disappeared into the clouds.

Liz VIII watched Lilian leave, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.

She had just found her last relative in this world, and then lost her in the blink of an eye.

She looked at the device in her hand and knew that Lilian was asking her to drive the ship away from here and leave the city.

But in the end, she rowed back.

The panicked Chief Divine Attendant of Como immediately rushed forward, came to the ship, and questioned Liz VIII.

"Where did you go just now?"

Liz VIII said: "I am saying goodbye to the past."

this day.

The rain slowly became lighter, but it still drifted over the city and swamps.

Even though it was raining, it still couldn't stop the surging crowds from gathering on both sides of the river bank. They looked at the other end of the river and gradually saw the witch's boat heading towards them.

They cheered and looked at the witch's ship with excitement and anticipation, hoping to catch a glimpse of the witch's face and receive the blessing of the spokesperson of God.

Lilian stood alone where her elder brother and younger brother once stood, standing in the crowd and watching the ship approaching.

When the boat passed in front of them from the center of the river, in the water palace at the highest point of the boat, a beautiful and elegant figure opened the curtain and looked towards the river bank.

The "Witch" looked at the river bank and smiled as innocently as she did when she was a child.

She waved her hand as if saying goodbye to the people on the shore. In her eyes, she saw her elder brother and younger brother standing next to Lillian, and the three of them shouted loudly towards her.

The people on the shore immediately became excited.

"Look!"

"Her Highness the Witch is greeting us."

"I saw Your Highness the Witch."

Finally, the witch's ship bypassed Thunder City and sailed toward the depths of the swamp.

——

And the other side.

In the Temple of Miracles.

Patriarch Gamel was meeting with King Ossis who had just arrived. The two of them came to a high corridor where they could see the river bank. At this moment, they were also looking at the witch's reincarnation celebration in the distance.

Gamer pleaded: "Your Majesty Osis, please help me."

Ossis was a little confused: "That's a matter of Thunder Temple, it seems to have nothing to do with you."

Gamer's eyes were extremely complicated: "I just want to cut off the obsession and reincarnation that has spread over and over again, year after year, life after life."
