Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

The reason top players are top players is because they won’t be carried away by excitement; they always keep a clear mind.

"How are mirrors made?" Gu Nan didn't even take a deeper look at the translated missions and asked directly.

The missions were already there, so they wouldn’t run away. What Gu Nan needed the most right now was how to create these mirrors—this was the only missing link in this whole translation process.

"The Mirror of White Mist is a vessel for the world's will, and different translation methods have different vessel production methods," Red Tail started introducing the production process Gu Nan.

With her explanation, Gu Nan also learned how to make the mirrors.

It was actually related to the children of destiny on Heaven and Earth Star—the main ingredient for these mirrors was the fate accumulated by a child of destiny.

The basic principle behind the mist mirrors was to use the fortuitous fate to make contact with world wills, then engrave that onto the mirror made of special materials.

"So you guys are the ones behind those children of destiny?" Gu Nan asked with some amusement.

"Of course not." Red Tail shook her head violently. "A child of destiny’s fortune and fate are the foundation of these mirrors, so we naturally want to hide it. How can we do this right in front of our own doorstep?"

Gu Nan also nodded when he heard this. For reincarnators like them, it was really easy to find a random small plane and start collecting the fortune and fate from there. Why would they carry this out on their home planet and risk others discovering their goals?

"However, the fortune and fate in Star Realm is far thicker than that of smaller worlds, which is why that group of people couldn’t resist the temptation and started to experiment right on Heaven and Earth Star…"

When she said this, Red Tail's face showed some mockery. She then added, "Lord can read more about this matter and the required materials in the document."

……

An hour later, Red Tail left to oversee the ongoing reconstruction of the headquarters, while Gu Nan stood alone inside the archives room of White Mist, leafing through the files that had been sorted out.

Actually, it wasn’t quite accurate to say he’s alone, because someone else was helping him sort out the information, and she was also a familiar face.

Perhaps because Gu Nan already knew her, Red Tail sent San Wei over.

This was a girl who was clearly pure in temperament yet insisted on dressing herself up to be extremely bewitching on Heavenly Enterprise Star. However, she wasn’t wearing any makeup right now and looked like a girl next door.

"My Lord, this is the information you wanted…" San Wei’s forehead was full of sweat, as if she was standing on a stove, and she dared not stop walking for even a second, trying to find tasks to do.

"Mm." Gu Nan took the file in passing, then said with a chuckle, "Stop swaying around. Sit down. I’m almost done reading it."

San Wei’s face turned white, and she sat down while trembling, not even daring to glance at Gu Nan.

She was indeed fearful to the extreme. After all, she had witnessed Gu Nan's brutality first-hand and just happened to run into him again in White Mist. There was nothing more terrifying than this.

When they were both in Heavenly Enterprise Star, she was the one who betrayed him and left with Lin Yunyun back when rumors of his supposed death were spreading!

But at that time, she never could’ve imagined that this person would actually slaughter his way to White Mist’s headquarters and kill the Grand Commander!

‘And it looks like he’s going to rule White Mist from now on…’

At the thought of this, San Wei felt her head go blank, and her future seemed to plunge directly into purgatory.

Gu Nan looked at her with some amusement.

According to Red Tail, San Wei was one of her reincarnated clones, and their souls were connected, so Red Tail could easily influence San Wei's actions.

But looking at San Wei’s behavior, it was obvious that San Wei herself was entirely unaware of this. She believed that she was her own person.

Such a technique was truly terrifying.

But Gu Nan didn’t care about that. Be it San Wei or Lin Yunyun, neither their identities nor their so-called betrayals meant anything to Gu Nan.

Gu Nan would never help an NPC of his own volition. He would only ever do so because of missions, so the relationship between him and anyone else in this world was always a business transaction to the satisfaction of both parties. Gu Nan won’t consider other people’s feelings, but at the same time, he won’t demand anyone’s loyalty either. After all, in the game world, players have long gotten accustomed to this kind of event—an NPC they saved after much difficulty would someday randomly drop out of their party just because the plot demanded it.

San Wei was a trivial matter. Gu Nan was most concerned about the child of destiny.

White Mist’s archives clearly documented this event. The method of collecting someone’s fortune and fate was leaked in an accident fifty years ago.

An important member of White Mist died outside the organization in the middle of a mission. That person just happened to be returning to headquarters with all of the collected fate, and the member’s body was discovered by the six nearby Dao Lords.

After that, children of destiny gradually began to appear in Heaven and Earth Star.

It was clear that those six Dao Lords started experimenting with the information they stumbled across.

White Mist’s files also recorded information on all six Dao Lords, as well as when and where they created their children of destiny.

And among the various test subjects they created, the two most typical ones were naturally listed in the data.

"Ye Chen? Lin Tian?" Gu Nan almost had the urge to laugh when he saw those two stereotypical names.

It seemed that no matter the world, the main characters would always be similar—only the side characters were different.

"U-Uncle," a faltering voice came over. Lin Yunyun was standing at the door with her head down. "The Second Commander asked you to come over…"

Gu Nan nodded and stood up. He also wanted to ask Red Tail something face to face.

When he walked past Lin Yunyun, he reached a hand out and rubbed her hair with a smile, looking at her like she was a long-lost puppy who had finally found her way back home.

……

When he returned to the throne room that the Sand King built for himself, Red Tail was already waiting there.

The first sentence she spoke upon seeing Gu Nan surprised the latter, "The Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord is here."

"Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord? If I recall correctly, he’s among those six Dao Lords, right? Yet he still dared to visit?" Gu Nan asked, as if laughing at the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord’s foolishness.

Red Tail, however, said seriously, "Of those six Dao Lords, the other five are all worthless trash who have lived comfortably for far too long and lost their edge. Only the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord cannot be underestimated."

"Oh?" Gu raised his eyebrows and recalled his meeting with the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord but didn't recall seeing anything special.

Besides practically writing the words “mysterious expert” on his face, the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord didn’t seem too clever in his actions.

As if guessing Gu Nan's thoughts, Red Tail said, "What’s written on his face might not necessarily be true, and his actions might not necessarily be genuine either. If my other clone didn’t infiltrate that side, then I wouldn’t have known this either."

When she said that side, she naturally meant the six Dao Lords’ side.

This made Gu Nan pause slightly. He then nodded seriously as well. "That’s true… Looks like we’ll have to test him to see if he really is a mysterious expert."

"How can we test him?" Red Tail frowned.

The Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord never left an opening for anyone to exploit. If he didn’t want to reveal his true power, then who would be able to test him? She had made similar attempts herself, all of which failed.

Gu Nan didn't explain much and just asked directly, "Where's the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord? Just let him in."

Moments later, the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord walked into the throne room leisurely, still dressed like a scholar. His expression looked mysterious.

Red Tail didn't look at him; instead, she turned to Gu Nan. She was curious how Gu Nan planned to test the other party.

Gu Nan just smiled faintly, his thoughts indiscernible.

When the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord walked to the foot of the throne, he gently opened his fan and was about to speak, but he saw Gu Nan suddenly disappear from the throne, while a crimson blade sliced through the air.

Gu Nan already had Blade of the Sanguine King in his hand and had just slashed downwards!

"If he can be killed by this, then he’s definitely not a mysterious expert." Gu Nan used the simplest identification method.
