【The human children knelt down to thank the Flower Master for her generosity, and were even more delighted by your decision】
【That night, the human children and the Spirit Guardians gathered together. The Spirit Guardians who had similar experiences easily accepted each other, and the beautiful dances and songs continued for three days and three nights】
【After that, the two great Spirit Guardians, Filigis and Lilupal, opened up a place for the human children to live in the garden】
【The Eternal Oasis became a place where humans and gods were connected】
【Spring came and autumn went】
【In this central continent that was being eroded by yellow sand, forty summers passed and forty winters passed】
【Most of the first batch of human children had grown old, and some had even passed away. However, under your protection and the protection of the Flower Master, there were no natural disasters or famine risks, and the original three thousand people had expanded to tens of thousands】
【Without your interference, the human children spontaneously formed a nation, which they called — Floating Panpari】
【You used the wisdom of the Magic Realm to teach the human children about procreation, planting, education, hunting, writing, thinking, and other domains, enabling them to grow stronger】
【From then on, the human children and the Spirit Guardians revered you and the Flower Master as their deities, and erected statues of you both on the lotus flowers】
【Under your infinite wisdom that could never be wrong, the human children became increasingly reliant on you, and every word you spoke became a tenet of their faith】
【Day after day, you thought that time would continue like this, but something changed at a certain point】
【You discovered that the completion rate of the divine template simulation was gradually decreasing. If it continued to develop in this way, you wouldn't be able to see the moment of completion】
【If you didn't reach 100% simulation completion before the Age of Gods ended, your final reward would be greatly reduced】
【In order to find a solution, you began to think about how to play the role of a deity, or rather, the identity you had simulated】
【You thought that with your previous simulation experience, you would be able to solve the problem quickly】
【But unfortunately, even though you tried hard, the play rate continued to decrease and was infinitely close to stopping】
【At this time, your friend reminded you】
…………
On a moonlit night, surrounded by gently swaying lotus flowers.
Luo Chen, who was thinking about solutions, had his slightly furrowed brows smoothed by the soft voice that suddenly came from behind.
"My love, what are you troubled about?"
He subconsciously looked up, and saw the Goddess of Heaven, standing among the sweet-smelling flowers, bathed in the silver moonlight, walking towards him until she stopped beside him.
Her extraordinary beauty, covered by a white veil, was like frost that had never been seen falling in July.
No one, from ancient times to the present, had ever been able to witness this.
After a silent moment, Luo Chen said, "I'm thinking about whether my treatment of the human children so far has been right or wrong."
There was no doubt that the rapid increase in the play rate at the beginning indicated that his actions were absolutely correct.
However, at a certain stage, something went wrong, causing the simulation rate to slow down and eventually stop completely.
With a charming, faint fragrance swirling around his nose, the Flower Queen sat down next to him. Her golden hair, which was emitting a soft glow under the starlight, swayed gently.
"What do you think?"
"I don't think it's wrong."
Her crisp laughter spread like ripples, attracting the curiosity of Filigis and Lilupal, the two great Spirit Guardians, who were not far away.
They pretended to be unconcerned, keeping an eye on the movements of the two deities they revered, thinking they were well hidden, but they had already been exposed.
The Flower Queen smiled at them slightly, and then turned to a completely different topic, saying, "Once upon a time, I was banished by the sky and came to this land. I spent seventy-two days here and gave birth to this nursery where the Spirit Guardians were born."
Luo Chen couldn't help but look sideways.
He knew this, but hearing the Flower Queen say it herself had a different meaning.
"But even if this place is called the Eternal Oasis, how long will it last? These poor creatures who are born from a drunken dreamland and have lost their bitter memories, how long will their innocent dreams be able to slumber?"
Her words were mixed with a trace of melancholy sigh, which drifted away with the night wind.
"My love, even gods are not immutable. When gods die, the heavens change and the earth collapses. Without your protection, where will they go? What will support them to move forward?"
"Dreams will eventually wither, and the dream scenery will have a night when it collapses and disappears."
With the wisdom of the Magic Realm, Luo Chen almost immediately understood his friend's subtext.
His actions and guidance were indeed not problematic, but he had gone too far.
Like parents who care for their children, they arrange every step of their lives from birth, ensuring that everything is safe and secure.
But if he were not there, this safety and unreality built on others would eventually collapse like a house of cards.
Completely understanding the Flower Queen's reminder, and thinking about the actions of almost all the Seven Gods in later generations who gradually returned the era and power to mankind, Luo Chen thought deeply.
It had to be said that the human children were becoming more and more reliant on him now, to the point where they were about to lose their own ideas and thoughts.
This was not a good thing.
"So that's it. Rather than saying that I'm playing the role of a god, it's more accurate to say that I'm subtly influencing the entire Age of Gods."
At the beginning, the gods walked on the earth, traversing the ancient and wild times.
Then, the gods loved each other, each protecting small creatures and lighting the spark of civilization.
Until mortals broke free from divine intent and rose, their name - the Day of Farewell to the Gods.
"My love, you are simply too indulgent of the human children. With your wisdom, you can easily see through the signposts of destiny."
The Flower Queen's eyes, filled with divine light, glowed. She reached out to caress his cheek, her tone unusually gentle.
The deity in front of him was powerful, handsome, kind, wise, good, and proud...
Even though she was banished by the sky, and as a member of the Fairy race, who would lose their power if they fell in love with another, the Flower Queen was inevitably deeply attracted to him.
"It's no wonder that you have such a high golden level Sea King talent, even though you have no combat ability, not even the Flower God, who doesn't care for the Red King, can resist you."
She secretly marveled at this, feeling the loving gaze of the golden-haired goddess beside her. Remembering the history of Teyvat in later generations, Luo Chen felt a little heavy in his heart.
The battles of the gods, the invasion of the Abyss, humans and gods, used their flesh and blood to paint a grand scroll from ancient times to the present.
However, the books that preserved history only lightly recorded a short sentence. Perhaps only by personally experiencing it would one understand the weight and vicissitudes that existed within it.
"All I pursue is merely chasing after the wind. On the tombstones of the gods, humans will become the gods of gods."
"The illusion of a carefree dreamland will inevitably be shattered, and on the ruins of the shattered lies, humans will become the kings of kings."
Words of enlightenment came from Luo Chen's mouth.
It was not too late to change from now on.
【You understand the true meaning of the divine template, and your play rate increases significantly】
The Flower Queen smiled. Her fingertip slowly glided across his cheek as she whispered, "Don't worry, my love. No matter how the world changes, this body will show you a path that transcends the absurd rules of the world."
In the distance, seeing the two deities acting so intimately, Filigis and Lilupal widened their eyes, like little children peeking at adults being affectionate.
