Chapter 1335 - Thrilling Speculations (2/2)

“We pretended that we met her for the first time. Every Denizen of the Stars would not say the name of the Mad Lord.” Asurmen continued. “Since the sacred covenant was established, we accepted our mission. We stayed quietly in the darkness, remained silent and vigilant. This world already belongs to the mortal species. Our time has passed. For us, it has been a great relief to be able to watch this peaceful universe in silence.”

“But peace has been disturbed,” Hao Ren said with a frown. “So, the goddess of creation did not know about the prison of Collow? And she has forgotten about Lockmarton?”

“Collow is a forgotten corner, and it must be forgotten. Lockmarton carried too many painful memories of the goddess of creation and was the starting point of her entanglement with the Mad Lord. Since I was here, the goddess of creation had isolated this dimension with her divine power. After she erased her memory, no one could enter or leave the prison. But I could still connect with my own people through a gift to keep abreast of the changes in the outside world.”

“So you knew about the fall of the goddess of creation?” Hao Ren blinked. “You people were watching the whole incident and you did nothing… Oh, wait a second! It wasn’t an accident?”

The truth dawned on Vivian and Y’zaks who looked at each other with an incredible look on their faces. Others seemed to be in thought. Only Rollie drew a blank expression. She patted Hao Ren’s arm as she had lost her patience listening to the boring story. “Meow?”

“The memory of the goddess of creation was the biggest hidden danger, which Lockmarton could use to escape. Even though she had erased her memory, she could not make everything a fail-safe. There was no guarantee that other things of a true god would not become carriers, right?” Hao Ren looked at Vivian and the others with a frozen face. “The goddess of creation defeated the Mad Lord and sealed it. But she was the greatest existence that was connected to the Mad Lord. Just like two signal sources, once in contact, they would resonate with each other. The goddess felt that simply deleting her memory was not safe enough!”

“The safest way is to kill yourself.” Lily finally understood.

“The goddess of creation probably realized that her thoughts about the Mad Lord had begun to return, but she could do nothing about the inadequacy of the seal, so she could only choose to end her own life.”

“But then things are becoming confusing now.” Hao Ren said. “If the goddess of creation created her own assassination plan, what about the First Borns’ lost of control and the Guardian Giants? Did she ever think about this? Her Creation Engine was only half completed; was it her plan? The god killers attacked the divine realm, and when the goddess saw that they were going to succeed, she only began to send some Guardian Giants to activate the ‘lullaby’ for the First Borns. It fully shows that things have been entirely beyond her control. More importantly, if the goddess of creation really wanted to eliminate the possibility of the resurrection of Lockmarton by killing herself, she could have chosen a simpler method.”

Hao Ren was subtle in his words. But anyone who listened would understand what he meant. If the goddess of creation could have just committed suicide, she did not have to go through all the trouble, dragging the different races into the picture and causing the First Borns to carry out the extinction-level attacks.

The goddess of creation was not a cold-blooded deity who could bear to send her own child to death’s door judging from her words and deeds.

“I can’t answer most of your questions, but there are a few things I can tell you.” Asurmen’s voice was devoid of emotion no matter how emotional the other people were. “First, the goddess of creation did not participate directly in the deicidal plan. But she may have acquiesced and connived. Perhaps her purpose was to get herself killed in order to contain the Mad Lord. Second, the decay of the First Borns and the Guardian Giants was not in the goddess’ calculation. Unknowingly, the power of the Mad Lord had infiltrated her plan, causing the situation after the death of the goddess to deviate from the goddess’ plan. She did not discover it until the last moment, and only had the time to lay out some emergency measures to avoid complete extinction of civilizations. Third, it was not that the goddess of creation didn’t want to commit suicide, but she couldn’t actively kill herself.”

“She couldn’t actively kill herself?” Hao Ren repeated the phrase.

Some vague ideas materialized in Hao Ren’s mind.

The goddess could not arbitrarily deny herself.

Self-denial of the goddess would shake the law that regulated everything, and even the foundation of the universe.

The prison that held the Mad Lord was the largest divine thing the goddess of creation made. The self-denial of the goddess may have compromised this prison.

So she could only let others kill her.
