Chapter 260 In the name of the divine audience, I will—
What an insane and inhumane plan this is.
Everyone on the Douluo Continent was instantly terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.
Subconsciously, everyone put themselves in the shoes of the creatures in the universe, their hearts enveloped by endless fear.
If Lai Gushi's plan is successfully implemented, all living beings in the universe will be completely wiped out, and even their Douluo Continent will not be spared.
When a true catastrophe hangs over your head, no one can remain indifferent and stand idly by.
All the beings of Douluo Continent were indignant at this moment, clenching their fists and shouting in unison against Lai Gushi.
Even if the path of the Star God is wrong, and the rules of destiny are wrong.
That can be resolved through peaceful negotiation; why insist on going to the extreme of destroying everything?
Tang San, in particular, is someone who prioritizes filial piety and deeply respects and honors his father, Tang Hao.
In his eyes, his father, Tang Hao, was an unshakable, towering mountain, and a warm sun hanging high in the sky.
No one is allowed to desecrate it in the slightest, and no one is allowed to slander or offend it at will.
He felt that as the creator of the Buddha, Ragus was equivalent to its father and could sit down and communicate and discuss things properly with the Buddha.
Why drag all living beings in the universe down to the abyss of destruction and death just because of your own obsession?
At this moment, Tang San was even more convinced from the bottom of his heart that Lai Gushi was not a qualified father at all.
He has never treated the sage as his own child since he created him.
Furthermore, it was never taught any concepts about filial piety.
From the very beginning, he instilled in his son the idea that the authority of elders was supreme and could not be disobeyed.
Teach it that even if elders make mistakes, juniors should not criticize them, but rather help cover them up.
No matter what decision the elders make, the younger generation must fully support it and must not resist in the slightest.
Will such tragedies of widespread death and destruction occur again?
The answer is definitely no!
If it were Tang San who took on the role of this "father-like" creator, he vowed that he could definitely turn Bo Shi Zun into the most loyal and obedient child!
He'll do whatever you ask him to do.
Meanwhile, the Star Luo Emperor was also pondering a similar question to Tang San's.
However, his inner beliefs were completely opposite to Tang San's.
He felt that there was no absolute right or wrong between Bo Shizun and Lai Gushi.
It is precisely this kind of conflict, which is neither right nor wrong, that forces each other to grow and become stronger.
He has been in an exceptionally good mood lately, with a sense of relief in his expression.
After all, none of his seemingly dull and cowardly eldest son Davis's secret schemes escaped his notice.
His eldest son, Davis, together with Zhu Zhuyun, did not kill Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing as he had ordered.
Instead, they secretly colluded with the rebels, accumulating strength with the intention of overthrowing his rule.
At this moment, Emperor Xingluo understood that his son had finally grown up and had his own ambitions and decisions.
Regardless of whether this rebellion ultimately ends in victory or defeat.
From then on, when he faced Davis again, he would never treat him as an ignorant child, but as an evenly matched opponent.
He also firmly believes that Davis can defeat him based on his own strength.
The Star Luo army under his command will inevitably become more valiant and powerful.
When facing powerful enemies from outer space, they will be able to fully demonstrate the indomitable spirit and unyielding character of all beings in the Douluo Continent.
Above the sky, after hearing Lai Gu Shi's extreme and crazy views, Heather fell into a long silence.
Over the past thousand years, she has experienced countless hardships and life-and-death situations, and has pondered and questioned the truth and destiny of the world countless times.
Little Gray Hair, standing to the side, also fully understood the deeper meaning of Lai Gu Shi's words and the extreme destructive significance they represented.
Along her journey, she has witnessed too many beings who wanted to break free from the shackles of fate.
Some of them fought their way out and succeeded, while others ultimately became victims of fate.
Even the baseball bat that Little Gray Fur is holding tightly will shout the declaration, "Rules are meant to be broken!" when it unleashes its special skill.
Even though he knew the significance of breaking the rules, Little Grey still absolutely refused to agree with Lai Gushi's crazy views.
Lai Gushi possessed immense power, yet he never considered protecting the weak. Instead, he wantonly toyed with and trampled on pitiful creatures.
Thinking of this, Little Gray put his hands on his hips, his childish face instantly losing its innocence and becoming extremely serious. He gently shook his head and rejected the idea:
"This is no excuse for you to play with fate."
At this moment, Haisein's heart became completely resolute, and there was no longer any confusion or hesitation in her cloudy eyes.
She slowly stepped forward and spoke in a calm and firm tone:
"The Onphalus have already given their answer. Whether you become the small fish to be swallowed or the giant whale to witness a grand sinking..."
Little Grey also walked quickly forward and steadily walked to Heather's side.
The two looked into each other's eyes, nodded slightly, and clearly saw in each other's eyes their determination to fight to the death and never back down.
Immediately afterwards, Heather turned her head, her sharp gaze fixed on Lai Gushi, her right hand gently pressed against her chest, feeling her steady and powerful heartbeat.
From the bottom of her heart, she declared loudly and resolutely:
"I, Helechula, once a subject of Caesar, am now the blade of the Savior—I will fight fate to the very end."
"The noble chivalry is truly moving."
After hearing Heather's resounding declaration, Lai Gushi slowly raised his palm and clapped it lazily.
Then, he slowly turned around to face Little Grey and Hathaway, bowing slightly like a proud member of the House of Lords.
"As a sign of respect, at this historic moment, I will also reveal my true self and offer you a humble academic suggestion."
The moment the words left his mouth, Lai Gushi's aura underwent a sudden and dramatic change.
His voice became deep and resonant, filled with a philosophical chill. He no longer concealed his true identity and began to introduce himself in a deep voice.
"The following words come from Genius Club #1: Zandal I. Kuwabara, the primary instigator of the beginning and end of the universe—"
"There's no need to be angry about the truth: the value of a calculation lies solely in the answer itself—"
"As for the process of finding the solution, whether elegant or violent, solemn or humorous—"
"—Ultimately, it all means nothing."
Little Gray's expression instantly turned extremely serious, and the tips of her fingers gripping the baseball bat turned slightly white. She knew that Ragu was finally getting serious.
In this battle, she must exert all her strength and go all out to have even a sliver of hope of defeating her opponent.
Heather immediately gripped her weapon, flashed forward, and decisively stood in front of Little Gray Hair, her gaze like a knife, fixed on Lai Gu Shi in mid-air.
At this moment, Laigus completely shed his disguise and transformed into the real Zandal.
He slowly opened his arms, his body slowly rose into the air, hovering steadily in mid-air, surrounded by a faint black mist.
The hollow opening in his chest now spins wildly like a black hole that devours everything.
In an instant, endless dark red and black power surged out wildly from the gap.
As the crowd before the celestial canopy gazed upon this familiar, evil power, they instantly recalled the terrifying black tide that had once destroyed Onpharos.
The red light on his chest grew increasingly intense and dazzling, dyeing the entire world a chilling crimson.
Countless tiny energy cubes rapidly converged around him, swirling around him at high speed.
Finally, thick, pipe-like energy tentacles, like the wings of a ferocious demon, suddenly stretched out from behind him.
An immense, destructive power surged into Zandal's body through these tentacles, making his aura increasingly terrifying.
"In the name of the divine audience, I will—"
As he completed his transformation, Ragus, also known as Zandal, whispered in a sacred yet cold tone.
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his arms high, gathered all his strength, and then swung them down forcefully.
Instantly, ripples of violent energy spread and burst forth in all directions from him.
A devastating force swept in, and Little Grey and Hazel immediately raised their arms to block it with all their might.
Once the violent energy ripples completely dissipated, Lai Gushi's appearance in mid-air had completely changed.
The covering that had been obscuring his eyes completely disappeared, revealing his sharply defined, yet extremely eerie, facial features.
Although he still maintained his human form, he exuded a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine at first glance.
He opened his arms again, fully revealing his true self, and his aura of destruction surged.
The voice was filled with disdain and contempt for the fate and all rules of the world:
"To personally participate in the final act of the world."
