I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

#671 - 660 The Cruel Savior

"What proposal?" Mann asked.

Mann's moves perfectly countered the Seer, and even the Divine Firmament Avatar couldn't continue according to her original plan. The path to her predetermined future was blocked by Mann.

This meant that if she were to make a choice, she would inevitably have to choose to leave and no longer attack Mann.

But this move was not without a solution.

The Divine Firmament Avatar directly replied:

"I will no longer try to seize your body at this time. You have already won. Continuing to be your enemy is indeed not good for saving the world, but I hope you can meet me halfway."

Mann looked at her in confusion:

"What do you mean meet you halfway?"

The Divine Firmament replied:

"I won't oppose you at this moment, but I hope you won't use this kind of trick again in the future. As compensation, I will also back down and not kill those you care about who are still outside."

"Since you know that I am an avatar of the Divine Firmament's power, then you will understand that I am not bound by those morals and concepts. In other words, I am the Divine Firmament without weaknesses. Evil, cunning, cold-blooded, cruel—these are all advantages in me. I will use methods that she would never deign to use to achieve victory.

"And unlike those other opponents who can be deceived by your cold-hearted facade, you can't deceive me in any way. I know you care about them, and I can see how angry and pained you will be after they die.

"I know you are still a living human being."

Mann's eyes instantly sharpened:

"Oh, sounds like you think you can kill them at any time?"

The Divine Firmament revealed a terrifying smile:

"Of course, my power is enough to transcend time. The current Divine Firmament power is restrained, but the past Divine Firmament power has come to this moment through time. Simply put...

"I am everywhere, both for the Federation and for you.

"Although I am not a telepath, and I can't directly communicate with the Divine Firmament powers in other regions of the world, we don't need to, because they will know that doing so is the right thing to do.

"Most importantly, you can't hide your sister.

"You should already understand this, right?"

Seeing Mann's serious expression, the Divine Firmament Avatar revealed a triumphant smile.

Yes, the moment she mentioned threatening the people he cared about, Mann immediately thought of instantly pulling all the people he cared about into the Control Department temporarily.

This was also the most important reason why he chose to make them employees. He had already considered that some evil anomaly users might want to threaten him through them, so he had made preparations early.

Any situation where his family was kidnapped would result in him directly pulling them back to the Control Department.

Unless the opponent was the Divine Firmament.

At this moment, he fully realized how terrifying the Divine Firmament, who possessed prophecy and power, was, and why even a god like Seraph, who was almost invincible in the Southern Federation, was so awed by the Divine Firmament.

He couldn't bring Chen Yun to the Control Department in front of the Divine Firmament, because she would "tear up the ticket" before that.

This had nothing to do with how long the teleportation would take, because she could foresee the future, which meant that as soon as he wanted to teleport to rescue Chen Yun, Chen Yun would be killed a few minutes before that decision was made.

If he rejected the Divine Firmament's proposal now, Chen Yun might already be dead a few minutes ago.

This was the Seer.

When the Divine Firmament used similar tactics to counter him, she didn't give Mann a real choice, because she had already made a decision for the future Mann—he could only give up using this method to fight her in the future.

Mann looked at her with incomprehension in his eyes:

"I really can't understand, can't we find a way to coexist? Even if your condition was to borrow my body for more than ten years to save the world, I might sit down and negotiate with you."

The Divine Firmament smiled and said:

"Since I have already attacked you, it means that other methods are almost impossible to succeed. As for you saying borrow my body, that is also impossible, because I don't have the ability to control other people's bodies.

"All I can do is use my reality to overwrite your reality. Of course, I considered deceiving you, but that kind of future is also almost impossible to succeed, so I can only kill you honorably.

"But my purpose has always been simple and pure, which is to save the world. It's just that I'm now choosing the easiest path to achieve my goal, and you just happen to be blocking my way."

"Now you should already feel how strong I am, right? If you are willing to give me your body, then saving the world is almost a certainty.

"If the real Divine Firmament could act like me and abandon those stupid bottom lines and morals, then she would have already realized our common wish. As long as a few million innocent people are sacrificed, she can save the entire world.

"That's twenty billion people! Even now, the Federation has killed more than a few million innocent people.

"It is her weakness that is causing innocent people to continue to die even now, and the number of people who have died far exceeds the number she originally needed to sacrifice, and we don't have much time left. The Great Collapse she once mentioned will eventually really come, and it will happen within many people's lifetimes.

"By then, those she should have sacrificed will eventually die in extremely cruel and terrible ways, just living a few more years than they would have originally, which is completely meaningless.

"I must stop this terrible thing. Now, as long as you are willing to sacrifice yourself, you can save everyone, including those you care about, so that they can truly live to old age instead of living a few more years in vain.

"After you die, I will attribute all the credit to you. You will become the savior, and I will become the evil villain that everyone despises, but almost everyone will be saved."

Saying this, her eyes were extremely firm, and she even really looked like a savior.

But Mann didn't waver at all:

"Fortunately, the real Divine Firmament is not like you, otherwise I might have been killed by her long ago, and if the Divine Firmament really acted like you, then her reality-warping power could not point to saving the world.

"No, your lies can't shake me. Maybe you can really save the world after I die, but that doesn't mean you won't kill those I care about, because they are also likely to seek revenge on you.

"If there really is some terrible Great Collapse that will descend and destroy this world, killing the people I care about as you said, then I will stand up and personally fight it.

"Compared to you and the Divine Firmament, I trust myself more."
