Immortal Creed
Chapter 160: Cooperation Achieved
To prevent things from taking a turn for the worse, Nimophila quickly racked her brain and came up with a solution.
"Didn't you say this space is shaped based on real people and things?"
"If everything else is fake, then is my memory also fake, or is it real, just missing some parts?"
Nimophila questioned Liens, and her question temporarily made Liens stop his idea of directly launching an attack.
"Your memory is real, at least for you as an individual, it should be real."
Liens replied.
Upon hearing this, Nimophila smiled, then said to Liens, "Since you also think my memory is real, then let's do a test."
"What test?"
Liens silently watched the seemingly excited Nimophila.
"Based on everything you said being real."
"You think this place is a fake space shaped by your ability, so you should be able to regenerate a new space, or pull a new 'me' back in here, right?"
"So based on this, what's the difference between the new 'me' and the current me, for example, is there a discrepancy in memory?"
Nimophila asked again.
Looking at Nimophila, who seemed to have entered some kind of research state, Liens felt a bit novel, he glanced at her in surprise, then replied:
"The current you and the real you are separated, so your memory is not connected to the real you, and you cannot retain the memories from here."
"If you generate a space again, what you know will also be based on the real you."
"That's why I said, your memory is real for you as an individual."
Liens did not explain to Nimophila about past instances, but simply stated directly that her memory could not be taken out of here.
"In that case, this test is very necessary."
"Are you willing to cooperate with me to verify the authenticity of your ability?"
Nimophila looked at Liens with shining eyes; at this moment, she seemed to have turned the tables, as if she wanted Liens to believe that this place was fake.
"Sure, how do you want to test it?"
Liens did not refuse; he was now a little interested in Nimophila's behavior.
Combat could happen at any time, but what was happening now was rare; the last person who asked him to do a test, their grave grass should be sprouting by now. Thank you for reading. This was brought to you by *.
"When I was bored, I created a set of ciphers that express different meanings through Element arrangement."
"The only one who knows how to decipher this set of ciphers, besides the gods, should be me."
"I won't tell you the specific deciphering method, after all, it's hard for you to determine if I'm lying."
"So, you just need to record this This paragraph cipher in front of you, and then present it completely to another 'me' to complete the test."
"After that, she should believe what you say."
"I saw you were able to influence the Wind Element around you when you were practicing your sword before, so I assume you have already mastered the ability of Element Blessing."
"This small trick shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"
Nimophila said seriously, and at the same time, a special cipher formed by Nimophila controlling Water Element appeared between the two.
Because it was a pattern formed by Element arrangement, it could only be seen under 'Element Vision'.
Liens carefully observed the cipher pattern in mid-air, which resembled a dialogue box, he tried a few times, and with Nimophila's guidance, he completely replicated it using Wind Element.
"Your control over Elements is very precise; to be able to do this at a Knight's realm, you... truly are a genius."
Seeing Liens complete the replication after only a few attempts, Nimophila couldn't help but exclaim.
"Is that all?"
Ignoring Nimophila's praise, Liens asked directly.
"That's all... it's just a bit of a pity that I can't personally confirm the test results."
Nimophila showed a look of regret and anticipation.
If Liens's ability was real, it would be a major discovery for her, and even for the entire Life Truth Society.
After all, the ability to simulate 'divinity' is incredibly powerful no matter how one thinks about it, but a Knight like Liens can use it, which is truly hard to believe.
The only possibility is...
...
"Divine Endowment!"
Seeing the Element cipher Liens displayed and hearing Liens's explanation, Nimophila shouted excitedly.
She was a bit confused when she saw the cipher's meaning: "He is very likely a Divine Endowed, please believe him.", but after hearing Liens's explanation, she became completely excited.
She never expected to meet a "Divine Endowed" one day.
"Divine Endowment?"
Liens looked at Nimophila, who was curiously sizing him up, wanting her explanation.
"Divine Endowment, as the name suggests, is a bestowal from a true god."
"In my understanding, only the bestowal of those three true gods can grant you the abilities you possess now."
"Other than that, neither innate abilities nor the blessings of those false gods can achieve it."
"My teacher once said that it is an upper limit called 'rules'."
"And gods transcend rules."
Nimophila explained to Liens with a solemn expression.
"Divine Endowment, huh?"
Liens pondered.
"Out of respect for a Divine Endowed, I will try my best to fulfill anything you want to know or do."
"According to what you said, your ability is a fictional space based on reality... so you must have something to ask me, right?"
"Oh, do you want me to tell you some of my preferences, or sensitive points or something?"
"That way you can quickly conquer me in reality with this information and win the beauty."
"Or, do you want to carry out your 'atrocities' directly here... No, that won't do, I'm very pure, I don't go for the depraved style."
"XX without feelings is not happy."
Liens looked speechlessly at Nimophila, who was talking to herself; he once again saw a different side of Nimophila.
"No need, I don't have such thoughts."
"However, if you could tell me the secret of this magical ritual in the town, I would be very grateful."
Feeling that Nimophila was veering more and more towards something undesirable, Liens quickly stopped her and took the opportunity to make a request.
"I'm afraid that won't work."
"Although you are a Divine Endowed, I don't know you well enough... the matter of the magical ritual is of great importance, and I cannot be sure whether you will cause damage to the ritual."
Nimophila shook her head, refusing Liens's request.
"Then forget it... let's fight to the death."
Hearing this, knowing that he temporarily couldn't get the town's secret from Nimophila, he simply returned to his original purpose.
Liens raised his sword and pointed it at Nimophila in front of him.
"Is that all... I understand."
"But before that, I'll first modify the Element cipher that the other 'me' gave you."
"This way, it should effectively avoid you having to waste time with too many explanations when you look for me later."
After speaking, Nimophila once again controlled the Water Element and created a new cipher for Liens.
"What does this mean this time?"
Looking at the pattern formed by the Element arrangement in the air, Liens asked.
"That's a girl's secret, I can't tell you."
Nimophila showed a bright smile, not revealing the deciphering of the cipher to Liens, after all, she still had a bit of shame.
"One last question, aren't you worried about dying in the upcoming fight?"
After remembering the new Element cipher, Liens seriously asked Nimophila.
If he were in Nimophila's position, he would probably find it very difficult to accept such a request that could lead to his own death.
"Since you asked that question, it means that in your previous battle with me, you probably didn't push me to my limits."
"Below Legend, no one can kill me."
Upon hearing this, Nimophila replied with a confident expression.
"I see... The confidence of a major power is truly strong."
"Are you ready? If you are, let's begin."
"Uh... I almost forgot to say, the Dean should come to stop us later, don't stop then either."
Liens continued.
Nimophila nodded in response.
"Finally... let us enjoy the pleasure of the fight!"
Before he finished speaking, only Liens's afterimage remained in place, followed by the sound of sword and fist colliding...
