Chapter 59: The Space-Time Twin Gods
Within moments, both girls had lunged forward and wrapped their arms around her.
"Mmm, you have such a familiar scent."
"It smells so sweet, I want to take a bite."
As she spoke, one of the girls actually nipped at Xie Bai’s cheek.
"Hey... what are you doing... get off me... mmph..."
Besieged by the two girls, Xie Bai found herself struggling to cope.
Fortunately, Xie Bai’s Strength stat was by no means low. Under the hundredfold amplification of the Poem of the Void, her Strength had reached a terrifying sixty-plus trillion.
She should have been able to easily push away two girls of unknown origin.
"Alright, get off me right now... hnnngh..."
They didn't budge.
"Huh?"
Xie Bai put her back into it, only to realize she couldn't move them an inch.
Before she could process what was happening, the Dungeon's system panel automatically popped up.
【Gamie Lv.300】
【Class: Gatekeeper of Time】
【Godhead: Time】
【...】
【Gamie Lv.300】
【Class: Gatekeeper of Space】
【Godhead: Space】
【...】
【Space-Time Twin Gods: Two True Gods residing at the Distortion Nexus where all space-time paths intersect. They exist simultaneously in the past, present, and future. When another observer is present, they automatically calibrate to the current timeline.】
Xie Bai: "?"
The Space-Time Twin Gods?
She had just reached level one hundred or so, and she was already running into level 300 True Gods? And two of them at once?
Was the world just that small, or were these two girls specifically waiting here to ambush her?
Xie Bai couldn't wrap her head around it.
Though she had accidentally stumbled upon an unexpected existence, based on the current situation, her life didn't seem to be in danger. After a moment of thought, she decided to try communicating.
"Alright, Gamie, and... uh, are you also called Gamie?"
Hearing Xie Bai call out their names, the two girls immediately leaped back, wearing expressions of pure shock.
"Gwah! How do you know our names?"
"No, no, how did you even get in here?"
Seeing the two girls staring at her with the wariness of startled kittens, Xie Bai’s usually sparse social skills suddenly faltered.
"Uh... well... hello. I'm not a bad person. Um... you can call me Bai."
Upon hearing her introduction, the two girls blinked in surprise.
"Bai?"
"That name sounds familiar..."
Seeing them lower their guard slightly, Xie Bai decided to push the conversation further.
"So... have you two sisters always lived in a place like this?"
"Sisters?"
"Are you talking about us?"
"Huh? Are you not...?"
Xie Bai sensed something was off.
Faced with Xie Bai’s confusion, the two girls looked at each other and grinned.
"We aren't sisters. We're sister and brother."
"Though in a sense, we could also be considered the same person."
"Wait, what? Sister and brother?"
Seeing that Xie Bai still didn't understand, the two girls began to explain.
"To be precise, we are Gamies from two different timelines. One became the God of Time and the other the God of Space, and then we met here at the Distortion Nexus."
"After all, space and time are one. To become one, you must simultaneously become the other."
"And in our two timelines, only our genders are different. Essentially, we are the same person."
"However, the God of Time defines 'before' and 'after,' so the God of Space has to be the younger brother."
Listening to the two Gamies' explanation, Xie Bai’s mind spun.
"So... which one is the older sister and which one is the younger brother?"
"Not telling!"
"Take a guess."
"Never mind..." Xie Bai rubbed her temples. "Let's get to the point... Um... do you know if there's a Godhead here?"
The two Gamies looked puzzled.
"A Godhead?"
"Do you mean ours?"
The scene fell into an awkward silence.
Just as Xie Bai was trying to figure out how to rephrase her question, one of the Gamies suddenly piped up.
"I've got it! You're here for the trial, aren't you!"
Xie Bai blinked. "Trial?"
"That's right, the trial! Isn't that right, Gamie?"
"Oh, I remember now! A very beautiful big sister came to see us. She said if someone came looking for a Godhead later, they had to pass the trial she set up. If they pass, we give them the thing she left behind as a reward. Now, what was that big sister's name... I can't remember. I remembered it clearly when I was in her space-time, but as soon as I'm away from it, I forget."
Hearing their explanation, Xie Bai couldn't help but think of the "Void King" Thanatos had mentioned.
Is it her? But what's this trial about? Does she want to test my strength?
Thinking of this, Xie Bai looked at the two Gamies again.
"Could you explain what this trial is?"
The two Gamies thought for a moment.
"Mmm... alright. Since you managed to get here and you know our names, you must be the challenger! Gamie!"
"Right, Sister!"
With that, one of the Gamies pulled out a square silver frame that possessed a strange, geometric beauty.
【Remote Gate】
【Quality: Divine Artifact】
【Type: Special Equipment】
【Requirement: True God of Space】
【All Attribute Bonus: 2.71 Quadrillion】
【Remote: Provides relevant information and establishes a 'Gate' to a related destination.】
【The companion artifact of the God of Space, possessing the potential to reach infinite destinations.】
The moment she saw the Remote Gate, Xie Bai knew which one was the brother.
But that's not even the point right now...
Looking at the specific stats of the Remote Gate, Xie Bai finally understood why she couldn't push the two girls earlier. The raw stats provided by a single Divine Artifact far exceeded her own, even with her hundredfold amplification.
There was no way she could have moved them.
Wait, why are other people's artifacts so high-statted while mine are so low...
As the thought crossed her mind, she suddenly felt a wave of indignation radiating from Funeral Rites.
Alright, alright, I know you're still growing. Don't get grumpy with me...
After soothing Funeral Rites, Xie Bai looked at the Gamie who was still fiddling with the Remote Gate.
"So, am I supposed to go through the passage created by the Remote Gate to reach the trial grounds?"
The Gamie adjusting the gate jumped in surprise.
"Gwah! How... how do you know what the Remote Gate does? No, wait—how do you even know its name? Even Sister didn't know!"
Seeing the boy's pouting, aggrieved face, Xie Bai scratched her head awkwardly.
Uh... how am I supposed to explain the game panel to him? Is an artifact's name supposed to be some top-secret information?
While Xie Bai was feeling conflicted, the other Gamie leaned in.
"Come on, Gamie, so what if your artifact's little secret got leaked? It's no big deal."
"Then you tell me what your artifact is called!"
"No way. That's a grown-up secret. I can't tell a child."
"Waaaaah! You're the child!"
Watching the two Gamies bicker and tangle with each other, Xie Bai stood there, unsure of what to do.
A short while later, a gate leading elsewhere was established. A dungeon interface appeared right in front of Xie Bai.
【This is a Very Simple Trial Lv.100】
【Difficulty: Dusk】
【Entry Condition: A very, very cute girl】
【An independent space personally established by 'Someone.' There is only one stage. Clearing it may yield a mysterious reward.】
Xie Bai looked at the information, bewildered.
"Another dungeon? Can you put a dungeon inside a dungeon? And what is with this description?"
Though she didn't quite understand what was going on, seeing the expectant little faces of the two Gamies, Xie Bai didn't hesitate.
In the next second, she stepped through the entrance and arrived in an independent space.
The bad news: she was immediately surrounded by Level 100 bosses, and the effects of Poem of the Void had vanished.
The good news: none of them were over Level 110.
