Chapter 202: Lao Deng's Unstable Heart
Even though Gu Chen explained it as detailed as possible, Paimeng still couldn't give up worrying.
Gangs are gangs.
You can't be unafraid of the word "gangster" just because the gangsters do good things.
Zhongli, on the other hand, was particularly understanding.
Just now, Gu Chen used the abyss of Teyvat to illustrate the darkness of the multidimensional universe on their side, and Zhongli understood it all at once.
He felt that light and darkness should be in opposition, and should have been in a state of decline and growth over the years.
After years of confrontation, the Ultra Guard's style of action cannot be too gentle.
Being too gentle won't shock the universe! Often, you have to resort to drastic measures!
Although he understood it, Zhongli still cared about the same question:
"Can high-end combat power destroy a planet...
This is really unimaginable."
After thinking about this, Zhongli asked again:
"Gu Chen, how many Ultramen are there who can blow up a planet?"
Looking at Zhongli speechlessly, Gu Chen spread his hands again:
“I don’t know, I can’t count.
I can’t even count the number of people I know who have this ability, not to mention the ones I don’t know.”
Zhongli calmly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and wanted to confirm one thing:
"countless……
It seems like there are a lot of them.
Could it be... around 18,000?"
Gu Chen wanted to shake his head subconsciously.
But after thinking about it, his expression became a little uncertain:
"This...I can't say for sure. I really don't know."
After taking a deep breath, Zhongli stopped asking questions in this regard.
He felt that there was no point in asking. Apart from causing an impact on his mood, it was really meaningless!
While feeling shaken, Zhongli nodded slowly:
"I understand now. The Ultraman Light Clan's high-end combat power is capable of destroying a planet.
What about the highest combat power?"
When mentioning Ultraman's highest combat power, Gu Chen couldn't help but subconsciously think of those four figures.
While continuing to be in a distant mood, Gu Chen slowly replied:
"The highest combat power...
As far as I know, there are four people with the highest combat power, and these four are called the mysterious Four Os.
How strong are they...
I don’t know and can’t guess.
After all, their actions, as recorded, were just actions.
We don't know whether they reached their limit of attack or whether they had demonstrated their full strength at that time.
By the way, maybe you can understand it by giving an example.
Once upon a time, there was a peerless devil named Belia who destroyed the entire universe in a rage!
Yes, it’s not just the destruction of a country or a planet, but the destruction of the entire universe!
When the universe was on the verge of destruction, the third-ranked one among the four, who was also the king of the Ultra Clan in the Land of Light, took action.
He paid a certain price and used himself to repair the entire universe!
Although he disappeared for a while after the repair, he returned completely soon!"
Paimeng and Zhongli beside him listened to Gu Chen's words from beginning to end.
Because they heard it clearly, they were both shocked and completely unable to remain calm.
Repair... an entire universe!?
Oh my God! What kind of power is this?
It is said that a certain price was paid at that time.
But afterwards, didn’t they come back intact?
It can be seen that the price is not particularly high!
And don’t forget, recovery is always harder than destruction!
Having said that, Zhongli couldn't help but ask himself.
If you ask him to destroy a country or the entire continent of Teyvat, he can do it with a gritted teeth.
But you ask him to restore a country and repair an entire continent...
Forgive him, that's not something he can do.
By analogy, you can imagine how terrifying it would be to repair a universe.
What's more, this is only the third one among the four!
Thinking of this, Zhongli couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat:
"Are those four... gods?"
Gu Chen couldn't help but look at Zhongli speechlessly.
That look seemed to be saying, aren’t you God?
Zhongli suddenly gave a wry smile.
Although he didn't speak, his eyes were clear:
In front of that kind of existence, does he have the nerve to call himself God?
Zhongli felt insignificant, let alone Paimon.
Her little head was confused, and she floated beside Gu Chen with a confused mind:
"Hmm... repairing the entire universe...
Unimaginable, unimaginable.
Is this the highest combat power of the Ultraman Light Clan? It's truly indescribable."
While Paimon was still stunned, Zhongli on the other side regained some composure.
After keeping his composure, he finally asked:
"I have a rough idea of the Ultramen's overall strength.
But...what's your average life expectancy?"
Gu Chen still had a bitter and resentful expression as he spread his hands:
“I still don’t know how to answer your question!
Because for the Ultraman family, lifespan seems to be linked to strength.
The stronger the strength level, the longer the life span.
Therefore, the average life expectancy of residents in the Land of Light is really of no reference value.
The only reference value is probably...
Let me tell you this, for most Ultramen, around six or seven thousand years old is the sign of adulthood."
Paimeng's brain was no longer in use, and her eyes turned into spinning mosquito eyes:
"How many? Six or seven thousand years to reach adulthood!?"
After saying that, she turned her eyes to look at Zhongli in disbelief:
"If that's the case, Zhongli, if you were placed there, wouldn't you have just reached adulthood?"
Zhongli didn't know how to respond to this.
His expression was strained, his eyes even more so, and he fell into a somewhat broken silence.
Zhongli couldn't help but remain silent.
After living for so many years, I'm so worn out that I want to retire.
As a result, in the Kingdom of Light, he has just reached adulthood!
Even Zhongli found it hard to accept!
He couldn't help but feel that if you compare yourself with others, you will die, and if you compare goods with others, you will throw them away.
Isn’t it true? Everything is afraid of comparison.
On the continent of Teyvat, Zhongli is highly respected and is the oldest and most powerful of the Seven Rulings of the World.
Whether in terms of existence time or strength, he is first-class.
But when it comes to Ultraman Light Clan...
His strength is not enough to explode a star, and his life span has just reached adulthood!
If he were thrown among 180 billion Ultramen, he probably wouldn't be able to make any splash.
This kind of comparison is bound to make people's hearts collapse!
Fortunately, Zhongli is Zhongli after all. After struggling for a while, he sighed and chose to let it go.
After that, Zhongli looked at Gu Chen with great admiration:
"Gu Chen, it turns out that your Light Clan... is such a high-ranking race.
No wonder you are so strong and no wonder you grow so fast.
Entrusting Liyue to you and entrusting it to your protection is truly the right choice!
Knowing you may be the greatest opportunity in my life."
Seeing Zhongli sigh like this, Gu Chen couldn't hold it in any longer.
Can you please stop using that? Lao Deng!
