I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 1002: Starting from the Beginning

Do not know why.

When Gu Xitong revealed that she was a god, Gu Heng was not as surprised as he had expected.

But his mind was still buzzing, and when he heard the answer, he felt an invisible weight collapse in his heart.

Does he always carry a deity with him, wandering around aimlessly?

How could you not realize it after all this time?

Of course, in his eyes, the system was definitely not some insignificant trinket; one could tell from the methods she displayed that this was certain. But... a god?

Gu Heng knew very well what "Era Gods" meant.

He witnessed it in the ancestral civilization relics at the Jiyuan Cemetery.

Even the remains of gods are still enormous and solemn, as if they could annihilate countless lives at any moment. Just standing there is enough to be awe-inspiring, even for insect gods.

And Gu Xitong now...

Those icy blue eyes, which were originally devoid of any emotion and only showed data flowing like a vast ocean, now revealed a subtle yet ruthless ripple. Gu Heng guessed that this might be what was called "divinity."

Standing at a higher level, with a detached and indifferent attitude, one can examine the divinity of all living beings and things.

Just as she is examining herself now.

The coldness and procedural feel of the past were perhaps better.

"There was a time when I wasn't with you at the Epoch Cemetery."

"At that time, I learned from others about the 'god-making plan' of technological civilization. It sounded outrageous, but what was even more outrageous was that technological civilization succeeded..."

"At the time, I never imagined that you were the god who was created."

Gu Heng silently looked at Gu Xitong, trying to find some familiar feeling in that petite divine body.

Unfortunately, it can't be found.

The system no longer exists, and neither does Gu Xitong.

Now, perhaps we should call her the Queen of Technology.

"That big hand, it's still that damned big hand..."

After his initial reflection, he could only manage a helpless, bitter smile.

Gu Heng had never felt his thoughts were so chaotic and complicated, with so many things to complain about that he didn't know how to start. After all, his memories from his previous life told him that "systems" usually don't stay with you forever.

There will always come a day when the system separates from its host.

By that time, the host himself would have risen to prominence, becoming a respected and omnipotent titan.

Therefore, Gu Heng never thought that the system would stay with him forever; he knew that it would eventually part ways with him.

This day came too suddenly.

It was sudden for him, but Gu Heng knew he had to get used to it.

because.

That invisible hand continues to exert its influence behind the scenes.

He couldn't find any clues, but he could sense that everything that had happened to him since he awakened the system was pre-programmed!

At the very least, the general direction has been firmly controlled, and there is no possibility of any deviation from the right path!

When was the first time he felt that things were too accidental, that fate had already predetermined everything?

It wasn't even that long ago. All in all, Gu Heng felt that only a few years had passed.

At that time.

He also suspected that the system was the big hand, and all the coincidences and chance encounters were completely under the system's control, with the purpose of making him stronger.

After all, what other purpose could the system on the host have besides this?

We can't just make fun of him for fun, can we?

But look now...

The system doesn't seem to be the real mastermind behind it all.

She is the supreme deity of technological civilization. Even if she is man-made, she is still a god. He himself has witnessed the power of the system and has no choice but to believe in her.

But how could a perfectly good deity suddenly appear on him for no reason?

“You have many questions.” Gu Xitong’s voice brought him back from his unspeakable confusion.

"Yes."

"If you're willing to explain, then go ahead."

Gu Heng took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing the chaos and confusion in his heart.

In a place like this, the system ran into this mess, and it's probably going to break up with him. Since things have come to this, Gu Heng has nothing to say.

His reason told him that no matter how much he overthinked, it would be useless. Apart from Gu Xitong in front of him, he had no other chance to find the answer.

Since that's the case, we might as well just give up and do whatever we want.

"What do you know? Start from the beginning. Anyway, there's nothing I can do now except listen to the story."

"For example, how did technological civilization create you, and how did you end up inside me?" Thinking about it this way, Gu Heng actually relaxed.

Since I already know nothing about it, what else can I do?

Now, he's willing to listen to whatever the system says.

"Well, let's start from the very beginning."

Gu Xitong landed, her delicate feet stepping on the data space, instantly creating ripples. Gu Heng then witnessed a rather grand and awe-inspiring scene.

Within the sea of ​​stars, countless divine figures emerged one after another, their indescribable divine might rising and falling, shaking the heavens!

On the other end, there is a vast array of weapons from a technologically advanced civilization!

Gu Heng could tell that it was a sign that a major battle was about to break out.

"The god-making project is essentially a technological civilization's desire to possess its own supreme god..."

"But actually."

"The real purpose of creating gods is actually to trace back to the root cause, namely, why the concept of 'technology' came into being in the phenomenal world, and why technological civilization has become an 'outlier' among all living beings?"

"Other civilizations that rely on cultivation naturally give rise to a supreme god after reaching a certain stage of development. Why is it that technological civilizations, which also have vast territories, massive populations, and countless technological achievements that drive all living beings mad, have no gods?"

Gu Heng silently watched Gu Xitong present him with the god-slaying battle.

tragic.

Since there are no gods in technological civilization, there is no "safety net" mechanism that Yue Ru told him about. In the end, there is no powerful trump card to cover the fallback.

But they still chose to wage war against the gods.

One after another.

"Those two questions are beyond the reach of the great sages. The gods are high above, incredibly mysterious, and so powerful, yet they are not untouchable or invincible."

"So they made three decisions." "First, kill the gods; then, recognize the gods; and finally, create the gods."

Gu Xitong's small hand moved gracefully, creating a completely different scene.

In some void within the realm of this technological civilization, a gigantic cocoon, with countless mechanical lines, connects the entire technological civilization.

Countless people witnessed this moment.

Everyone wore expressions of intense tension and fervor, as if technological civilization had collectively lost its rationality at this moment.

A thousand wise men stood at the closest point to the great cocoon, declaring that from this day forward, technological civilization would create its own "supreme god of civilization"!

The words fell.

The entire civilization rejoiced.

"This process sounds simple, but the price that technological civilization has paid to achieve it is immeasurable."

"However, I imagine you're not very interested in how I was born."

Gu Xitong gently erased all the scenes displayed in the data space.

"You just want to know why I'm in your body."
