I Created a Containment Object at the Start, and Became a God

61: The Demise of Myth!What greatly puzzled him was that in this world, whether in Dragon Country, Japan, or other regions, detailed records of mythological systems were almost entirely blank.

People might know the word “god” and understand that it represents some transcendental existence, but when it came to specifics like China’s Pangu creating the heavens and earth, or Nuwa creating humanity...

Systemized mythological legends such as the Olympian gods of Greece, Odin and Asgard of Norse mythology, and Ra and Anubis of Egypt, seemed to have been completely erased by some force, their details unknown to anyone.

This global phenomenon of mythological “extinction” was extremely unusual.

Lin Zhi speculated that the annihilation of these grand mythological systems was likely not due to common historical factors like human forgetfulness or natural evolution.

It seemed more likely that some inexplicable, transcendental existence or mechanism had actively and systematically erased the deep memories and foundational existence of these myths.

Lin Zhi gazed at the blind, monkey-shaped Evil God crawling out of the Mother Body’s gore and feeding on the remnants. His suspicion about the Three Wise Monkeys grew stronger, yet he couldn’t be certain—after all, the macro mythological system of this world was blank.

”System,” he commanded mentally, ”analyze the energy characteristics and conceptual origin of this Evil God before me, and compare it with the ’Three Wise Monkeys’ data in the database!”

[Command confirmed... Analyzing target Divine Origin...]

[Comparison in progress...]

[Analysis Result: Target Divine Characteristic conformity with the Three Wise Monkeys concept is 97.8%.]

[Warning: An anomaly detected! The frequency of the target’s Divine Origin significantly deviates from the current world’s baseline rules! Its core encoding is not derived from this world’s underlying rule structure!]

[Conclusion: The target entity ’Three Monkeys’ is not a native or naturally conceived deity of this world. Its Divine Origin most likely comes from... other worlds or dimensions.]

The system’s feedback caused Lin Zhi’s pupils to contract slightly.

”It really is the ’Three Wise Monkeys’ from the tales of the land of the rising sun... but not native to this world?” he murmured to himself.

”In other words, these Three Monkeys before me are fundamentally a bunch of outsiders?”

This discovery was no small matter! If even deities could be outsiders, then the rule barriers of this world were probably more complex than he imagined, and the waters behind the Monkey God Sect ran deeper.

He felt that behind the Three Monkeys, there might be important clues regarding the truth behind this world’s mythological discontinuity.

Lin Zhi’s thoughts raced.

He suddenly recalled that the system had previously mentioned that successfully containing a deity would grant him some of its power.

But now, what he was more eager to know was—how exactly did these three “outsiders,” who clearly didn’t belong to this world, break through the World Barrier and descend here?

”System,” Lin Zhi asked in a low voice mentally, ”if I successfully contain these Three Monkeys, besides gaining power, will I be able to view their memories? Especially the memories concerning how they arrived in this world?”

[Confirming command...]

[Answering Host: Yes.]

[During the containment process, the system can forcibly extract the core memory fragments of the target Divine Entity and convert them into neural signals understandable by the Host for direct integration.]

[Additional explanation: The Host currently possesses a Pseudo-Divinity, which grants rank suppression over the target entities (The Three Monkeys are merely Sub-Deities, the lowest rank of gods, and have not reached the Pseudo-Divinity rank).]

[Memory transfer safety assessment: No overload risk, no potential for mental contamination, no hidden danger of madness.]

Receiving the system’s affirmative reply, a sharp gleam flashed in Lin Zhi’s eyes.

This was simply a heaven-sent opportunity! Not only could he resolve the immediate crisis, but he could also follow the vine to find the melon, digging out the deeper secrets behind the Monkey God Sect!

Moreover, he might be able to learn some of the circumstances and secrets of this world.

”Very well...” Lin Zhi’s gaze swept over the other two Ape Gods about to be born. A cold arc curved on his lips. ”Then I’ll wait for all three to come out and catch them all in one fell swoop!”

With a thought, he transmitted a hidden command to Wang Jin, who was poised for action on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, Wang Jin gave a subtle nod.

Although Wang Jin’s subtle nod was concealed, it did not escape Lei Zhen’s sharp gaze.

Lei Zhen’s brows instantly furrowed, and alarm bells rang in his heart: ’This kid... suddenly holding back his attack at such a crucial moment, and showing that expression... What is he planning?!’

But he didn’t have time to dwell on it!

”Pfft—!!! Pfft—!!!”

Two consecutive, sickening ripping sounds rang out! The abdomens of the pregnant women on the other two Stone Platforms were also simultaneously ripped open! Blood and fragments of internal organs gushed out like fountains!

Two monkey-shaped Evil Gods, similar in form to the first but each with distinct characteristics, burst forth from the wombs in an equally bloody manner!

One had its ears completely sealed by a thick, dark-gold keratin layer, as if melted together, representing ”Hear No Evil”! The other had a savage, dark-gold suture line tightly sealing it from the corner of its mouth to its throat, representing ”Speak No Evil”!

The Three Monkeys were gathered! See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil!

The terrifying, chaotic Divine Pressure instantly superimposed, sweeping across the entire Gloomy Veil Space like a tsunami! The Divine Barrier protecting their descent also dissipated.

”Now! Everyone who can move! Follow me!” Lei Zhen suppressed his doubts and let out a thunderous roar, charging ahead toward the three Evil Gods that had just descended and were still gnawing on the Mother Body remnants! He had to suppress them before they fully adapted to the present world and recovered their strength!

”Bai Xi! Get ready!” Lei Zhen yelled without turning his head during the charge!

”Understood!” Bai Xi nodded heavily. The humming of the silver-gray Chains of Law around her peaked, locking tightly onto the three Evil Gods!

”Stop them!” Seeing this, Yamamoto screamed hoarsely!

”Hmph!” The Ninja Leader Ibena Ikei drew his poisoned Ninja Blade. His figure flickered, turning into several afterimages, and he led dozens of elite ninjas who swooped toward the Investigation Bureau members like phantoms!

Blades flashed and kunai flew, instantly clashing with Zhang Ji, Yu Qingkong, and the others!

Ibena Ikei himself, along with the recently risen Stone Ape Honda and the partially recovered Sato, charged fearlessly toward the strongest—Lei Zhen!

”Get lost!” Lei Zhen roared, lightning flashing around him as his fists struck out like the Hammers of Thor!

Ibena Ikei’s afterimages were instantly shattered, Honda’s rock body was blasted again, sending gravel flying, and the sonic hurricane Sato spat out was forcibly ripped apart by the lightning! The combined efforts of the three were repelled by a single strike from Lei Zhen!

”Baka!” Seeing that the three couldn’t stop them, a flash of madness crossed Yamamoto’s eyes, and he finally stopped hiding!

He violently tore open his shirt, and his body swelled and twisted violently! In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a terrifying Poison Monkey, five to six meters tall, entirely dark green and black, with countless constantly wriggling, pus-oozing greenish-blue venom sacs covering his back!

”Pffft! Pffft! Pffft!” The venom sacs on his back abruptly contracted, spraying large quantities of thick, foul-smelling venom and dark green, lethal poison mist, instantly engulfing Lei Zhen’s path!

Wherever the poison mist passed, even the ground sizzled and corroded, emitting white smoke!

Lei Zhen’s charge was forcefully halted. Lightning power formed a barrier in front of him, resisting the corrosive effects of the potent poison. His expression was extremely solemn: ”What a vicious wanu!”

The battle instantly devolved into chaotic deadlock! The remaining Investigation Bureau members engaged in a bloody fight with the ninja unit! Lei Zhen was temporarily blocked by the Poison Monkey that Yamamoto had transformed into!

Meanwhile, the three Evil Gods, undisturbed, accelerated their feeding speed. The Divine Fluctuations emanating from them were solidifying and growing terrifying at an alarming rate!

Wang Jin remained standing in place, surveying the entire battlefield, as if waiting for the perfect moment to strike...
