Chapter 178: Chapter 178

Bored and unable to sleep, Loren still preferred the old forum where everyone was freely seeking fun.

Not this one, where most people were worried about whether they would be swept up in this conspiracy.

Loren only saw humanity's fragile fear and anxiety, which he disliked and couldn't understand...

He casually clicked on a post titled "Analysis of the Digital Currency Bank Conspiracy."

After glancing at the highly upvoted reply, his sense of boredom finally lessened a little.

This was a rather hardcore answer, which also deepened Loren's understanding of the entire Star Realm once more.

Angelic Knights: "Before analyzing the conspiracy of the Digital Currency Bank, we must first understand the operational styles of the devils from the Abyss and the Fire Thief Cult."

"Often, just by understanding an enemy's past operational style, some answers become clear on their own."

"First, I want to correct a traditional misconception for you all. In reality, devils and demons in the Abyss are not the same group; they are mortal enemies."

"In the ancient past, when those devils still resided in the Nine Hells, they loved to wage the Blood War against the Abyssal demons."

"A long time ago, the Empire's 'God of Gods' intervened, destroyed the Nine Hells, and exiled all devils to the Abyss. Only then were devils and demons forced to live together."

"What irony... two groups that were mortal enemies in the past are now forced to cohabitate."

"Nowadays, many humans even think devils and demons are one and the same. This is incorrect."

"The Abyss is a very complex, multi-layered plane. In the distant past, some of the powerful demons would actively occupy one or more layers of the plane. These demons are also known as Demon Lords."

"After those devils were collectively exiled to the Abyss, they once again began waging the Blood War. With their living space limited, the devils were forced to seize and occupy some layers of the Abyss."

"These powerful devils who occupied layers of the Abyss are also known as Dukes of Devils."

"This is what led to the Abyss becoming the form we understand today, with devils and demons coexisting within the Endless Abyss."

"In alignment detection spells within the Land of the Gods, they respectively represent Lawful Evil and Chaotic Evil."

"The styles of these two groups are also different."

"The nature of devils is ordered evil. They respect rules, contracts, and conspiracies, and enjoy spreading evil."

"The nature of demons is pure chaos and destruction. They emphasize slaughter, madness, and capriciousness. Even the powerful Demon Lords war endlessly amongst themselves."

"The demon faction enjoys meaningless chaotic slaughter, while the devil faction prefers using contracts to lure fallen souls."

"Alright, the background and style of devils are now introduced."

"As for the Fire Thief Cult, you can understand them as a group with a 'Humanity First' ideology, but their methods are quite extreme and crazy."

"The Fire Thief Cult originated in the Land of the Gods and is now spread throughout the entire Star Realm."

"They despise the Gods and any group whose status and power are above humanity, and are determined to completely destroy these groups."

"They call themselves the 'God-Forsaken Ones,' their methods are insane, and they stop at nothing."

"To achieve their goals, they can even cooperate with devils."

"Just like today, co-founding the Digital Currency Bank with devils..."

"Now, we have finished understanding the operational styles of both the Fire Thief Cult and the devils."

"Then, we come to the core of this reply: what exactly is the conspiracy of the Digital Currency Bank that could even make these two massive forces cooperate?"

"Our Angelic Knights' speculation is: each takes what they need."

"The devils need to spread evil and require an independent plane."

"The people of the Fire Thief Cult need to accumulate power to initiate Ragnarok and wipe out the entire pantheon of Gods."

"Thus, these two massive forces met and began cooperation."

"We analyzed the business model of the Digital Currency Bank and found that this bank is inherently suited for the underground black market, capable of greatly increasing the convenience and secrecy of transactions there."

"This Digital Currency Bank also perfectly meets the requirements of these two groups."

"Due to its convenience and secrecy, this Digital Currency Bank can effectively fund the birth of evil and also gather endless Spirit Stones."

"The devils and the Fire Thief Cult ultimately came together."

"Our conservative guess is that the devils and the Fire Thief Cult established an extremely strict contract."

"Most of the Spirit Stones earned through this Digital Currency Bank go to the Fire Thief Cult, used to help them accumulate power."

"In return, the Fire Thief Cult needs to collect some fallen souls within the Star Realm to pay to the devil group."

"If we speculate more boldly, the two sides may have also established a contract to jointly destroy the Land of the Gods in the future."

"The plane of the Land of the Gods would ultimately belong to the devils, while the destruction of the numerous Gods is one of the Fire Thief Cult's core demands."

"Finally, we have one more crazy speculation. Just listen to it; don't take it seriously."

"The Federation, the devils, and the Fire Thief Cult... the three parties are cooperating..."

"Regardless of whether our speculation is correct, we can foresee that a conspiracy sweeping across the entire Star Realm is unfolding."

This reply ended here.

After reading this hardcore answer, Loren slowly closed his slightly excited eyes.

He no longer felt bored.

Loren's mood even became somewhat agitated. He seemed to see a grand drama slowly unfolding across the Star Realm.

And he wanted to eagerly participate in it.

Only this kind of fun could truly make Loren feel lasting pleasure...

Federal Calendar 7708, October 23rd, in the early morning hours.

Loren felt a slight change in his state of mind.

Human pleasures were too few, and the fun involving the Gods and the Abyss was the truly interesting stuff.

A strong premonition arose in Loren's heart, an indescribable, special feeling was born within him.

Blood boiling with passion, brimming with keen interest...

A sacred feeling, as if it were a mission.

"To control and toy with the fates of the Gods and the Abyss" was what Loren truly wanted to do...

That youth who had nearly died in the alley had, on this night, found the meaning of his life and soul.

Fate should be fair, even for the Gods and the Abyss; it should be the same.

Every existence should pay a little deserved price for that alley youth's misfortune.

In the Star Realm, no one has ever been able to remain untouched.

Raven's exclamation of surprise came from the other side of the large bed.

"Master! What have you done again?! Our spiritual power is skyrocketing like crazy!!!"
