"What is that?" Hikisik asked curiously.
"He is the zero point of the entire universe. In other words, the zero point." Yi Cha said, "Only in this way can we explain why Keqil, who was eliminated by 'squeeze', appears there.
Why does he collapse everywhere he goes? Decline everywhere. "
"I thought that's what Decay Walker meant."
"Yes, Decay Walker, where did this title come from?"
"what are you saying?"
Xiqisi's brows were almost furrowed, and she still felt confused. "The title is not just the name. The name is just given. Whatever comes to mind."
"The god's name is not a name. Ruimugang'e is a name. Decay Walker is what he did."
Check the explanation. "Whether it's a believer or a god, it's a title summed up for him. It's the sum of all his external performances."
"Total!" Xiqisi shouted, "It's not that I don't believe you, can one title really represent so many things?"
"If it doesn't work, just get another one."
Yi Cha smiled. "The title of Nesis can be very long. The title is used to worship or to ridicule. It must mean a certain meaning."
"Oh. Yes." Hikis said absently.
I said, you are a god. Although he is a little wild god.
Yicha gained a new understanding of Hikis's lack of professionalism in being a god.
"So, no matter what the title is, this is how he is viewed from the outside."
Hicks was admittedly not a very good listener, but he felt that he could still talk to her. “Looking from the outside may not always reveal His true nature.
When your followers sing the praises of the Playful Witch, do they know they are singing the praises of a half-demon, half-harpy? "
"It's a beautiful bird demon." Hikis retorted, "And..."
"Okay." Yi Cha sighed softly. “Let’s bring the topic back to Ruimugange.
Wherever Ruimugange walks, there is decay everywhere.
No matter who sees it, they will think that the title of Decay Walker is indeed appropriate, and they will have no doubt that he caused the collapse of these planes.
Everyone will blame him for the decline. It is thought that his divine power affects these planes. "
"That's right. Isn't that what it is?"
"No." Yi Cha said, "Isn't it?"
"I don't know! I've been listening to you!" Hikisi stared at him and scratched her head irritably.
"I mean, my theory right now is just a hypothesis."
Yi Cha shrugged, "That's why we are going to ask the Kupi Sect some things to confirm whether this assumption is reasonable."
"What's your theory..."
"There is no divine power at all. Ruimugange is just the 'zero point'. The void is his anchor point."
He paused and said:
"Everything that is eliminated through the power of compulsion will appear in his place. That is, a place of nothingness.
Still.
So Kezier will be at the origin of the empty place.
In fact, it was not just Ke Qil who was 'suppressed' and disappeared. All things that are eliminated by the ability to force elimination will appear there. Collapse with it. "
Xiqisi didn't speak for a long time, her brows furrowed in one place.
"I understand!"
She suddenly burst into rage. "An empty place. It's not just a garbage dump! A garbage dump for everyone! That unlucky angel was thrown into the public garbage dump. Ruimugange is..."
"Why?"
She paused and scratched the feathers on her head, "The empty place is a garbage dump. What does Ruimugange do? The stationmaster who collects garbage?"
Yi Cha shook his head.
"It seems as if Ruimugange is the culprit that caused those collapses and declines - even the land of nothingness itself collapsed in his hands."
He explained carefully. "But I think the causation is exactly the opposite.
First there is collapse and decay itself. Only Ruimugange came into being.
It was not his divine power that brought this about. Rather, he himself is the embodiment of all processes of decay and collapse.
He appears in the place of decay simply because the decay that is taking place here calls for his arrival.
He is the process of 'returning to zero'. That is the 'zero point'.
We, you, the panplane, the universe, the zero point of everything. No matter what the outside world calls him. 'Zero point' is his essence. "
"Oh~~"
Hikisi nodded vigorously, and then nodded again after a while.
"Oh? Oh~~~" she said again.
During the conversation, they had passed dozens of demi-planes and were approaching the coordinates of the Kupi Sect's hideout.
Both Icha and Xikis were a little tired.
One is because he overthinks after getting excited, and the other is because he has been evading capture and overthinks. But none of them showed it - the devil's dignity is sometimes like this.
They entered that demiplane in silence.
The yellow sand filled the sky and got under their feathers, making them itchy and stinging, which was a bit uncomfortable.
This is a small desert.
"Yeah. Actually, I think you understand it completely."
Hikis suddenly spoke. “Rimugange’s identity, the mystery of the empty land, and so on.
You say it's a hypothesis...but I think that's what it is. no problem. "
Hicks seemed to have just figured something out. "You understand. What else do we need to confirm with that sect?"
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
After climbing over a large stretch of reddish-brown sand mountains, an inconspicuous small stronghold appeared in front of them.
Three or five simple leather tents were gathered together opposite each other, with a fire in the middle - only the ashes remained.
"Actually, there is one more crucial fact." Yi Cha replied.
They landed a little further away from the stronghold to observe.
There are less than ten members of the Kupi Sect. Judging from these ten, each of them has a round back, a lizard-like tail, a pointed muzzle, slovenly clothing, and is leaning on a sharpened stick. Stick - This generally means being ready for unfriendly activities.
They are currently conducting such an activity.
They were tying a creature as long as themselves to a wooden board and skinning him. Although it was already full of flesh and blood, judging from the color of its skin that had been peeled off, the creature was probably one of them.
The skin that was peeled off was quite consistent in color with the skins of the surrounding believers and the skins on the tents. They were all a listless iron-grey color, with only different light and shade.
"Let's go quickly."
Xiqisi's eyes lit up when she saw it, thinking that she had finally found a group with a common topic.
"Wait. Make some preparations." Yi Cha said.
…
The withered skin cultists were at a loss, peeling off the skin and hanging it up, stretching it on a wooden frame with thin threads, and throwing the remaining flesh and blood into the fire.
"Light the fire! Light the fire!" they said.
So the three believers bent down around the fire, put their faces on the ground, rubbed their hands back and forth, and muttered words.
A believer climbed onto a simple stone, raised his hand and threw a handful of powder into the extinguished ashes, and a pale flame suddenly exploded.
In the pale flame, a face full of wrinkles, gray skin, and skinny bones appeared.
The thin face slowly rose.
"Return to zero," it said.
