Not A God

Chapter 75

In the office, Zhou Shi stared intently at the image on the light screen and fell into silence. He couldn't believe his eyes and had to play the video clip of the [Nameless Mist] before it appeared over and over again. Especially the blurred human figure in it, no matter how many times he looked at it, Zhou Shi was sure that it was the pose of a human male.

In the footage, as the fog began to spread, that human pose dissipated, transforming into a figure so large that it could not be seen to the end. The bionic robot's viewpoint tilts upwards, but it cannot see the end of the giant figure, only a vast universe through the fog that gradually obscures the view. The image ended there as if something had jammed the signal and the camera had failed completely.

"...... He ...... is human?"

Zhou Shi muttered, his heart rising with this absurd thought, his pupils tightening with disbelief, his trembling fingers almost unable to hold the document in his hand. No, perhaps it would be more accurate to say that the god that seemed to be able to destroy the heavens and the earth was suspected to have a human body and had probably existed in human society for a long time.

In the past, there have been many ghosts and spirits with normal human appearance, and some of them have even been able to communicate with humans. For example, the first appearance of the [Nameless Mist] was discovered by an executive named Wu Qing, who had a mutation when he recalled it afterwards, which led to the discovery of the [Nameless Man's] identity as a ghost. But Zhou Shi had never imagined that the nameless God, who was as great as the creator god in his memory, could also have a human form.

Would the great god he had always longed for also recognise a body made of weak flesh and blood as a human?

What is the human form of the Nameless God?

Why did He maintain such a posture, why did He never reveal His human form, and what was the purpose of His repeated appearances in B City ......

A number of mysteries emerged in Zhou Shi's mind, and he frowned as if he was deep in a fog, unable to find the answers to these mysteries. He could not imagine that such a huge God, who seemed to regard human beings as mere ants, could also take on human form. It was possible that right now, that God had turned into an ordinary human being hiding in B City, observing the human world, harbouring unsearchable secrets, ready to destroy it at any time.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shi slightly tightened the paper he was holding in his hand nervously. Zhou Shi did not feel that this god would be as brainless and unintelligent as many ghosts and monsters, unable to communicate. This God was just like those omnipotent Gods in the ancient legends of the distant stars and must possess intelligence beyond the reach of humans.

His every move must have a deeper meaning, only Zhou Shi felt that he could not penetrate it now. All he could do was to guess and explore the truth from the clues he had now received. Zhou Shi pondered over the whereabouts of this god appearing in the [Mist of the Unknown] and the reasons for His frequent appearances in human society. The first time he found the [Mist of the Nameless] was at the University of Li, the second time was the [Muppet Hospital], and the third time was the [Mobile Drama Theatre].

Is there a special connection between these three?

Did that human form of God appear in all three locations, only to be captured on film this time?

Pondering these questions, Zhou Shi frowned and repeatedly flipped through the documents related to this [Mist of the Unknown] incident, picking out all the males of similar age to that human silhouette in that village. He searched carefully, not missing a single suspicious clue, trying to find someone who resembled the human form of a god, to verify his suspicions. In the end, he found that all the strong males in the village had died in last night's [Mist of the Unknown] outbreak, no, at the hands of the [Serpent Goddess] to be precise.
