The voice of the God of Knowledge, Tom, echoed through the pure white space. His face, devoid of features and made of blank pages, "looked" at Daniel, waiting for an answer.

"Do you want to leave here?" Daniel asked calmly.

"Yes," Tom did not hide his intentions, continuing to speak with confidence. "I need to go to other world lines to see the layouts of the 'me's for myself. Relying solely on mental images and intel is not enough to make the most precise judgments. Knowledge needs to be verified; that is the most fundamental principle."

"You need to know more information to make a judgment?" Daniel asked.

"That's right. The player in this game is me. I understand their way of thinking. But the differences between world lines introduce variables, and I must grasp those variables," Tom explained.

Daniel smiled faintly, then raised his hand.

"I refuse."

Daniel's attitude was decisive and clear.

Tom's face, which was made of blank pages, seemed to freeze. He hadn't expected Daniel to reject him so directly.

"Why?" Tom's voice carried a hint of confusion. "We've already signed the [Infinite Mind Pact], we are collaborators. You help me leave, and I help you analyze intelligence. This is beneficial to both of us."

"The content of the pact is about cooperating against the other 'me's and helping Aurelia, not about taking you out of here," Daniel responded, his hand still raised, palm facing up. "You staying here is the safest option. I don't know what kind of changes will happen if I take you with me."

Tom fell silent. He understood that Daniel still harbored deep suspicion towards him. The pact could bind their actions, but it couldn't erase the doubt.

"You're right," Tom's voice regained its rational tone. "The unknown is our greatest weapon. Taking you with me would indeed introduce uncontrollable variables. I failed to consider that properly."

He stopped pressing the issue and instead changed the subject.

"Since that's the case, share what you know about the other world lines with me through mental images. I need to use that as a foundation for my deductions."

Daniel nodded. This was part of the plan.

He closed his eyes, and a vast surge of mind power flowed. He concentrated the knowledge he had gathered from the Knowledge Daniel world line, the Inner God Daniel world line, and the interactions with the other Daniels. All of these were condensed into clear mental images and transmitted to Tom.

Tom quietly received the information. In the pure white space, only the sound of formless mental waves flowing could be heard.

Minutes passed. Finally, Tom let out a long sigh.

"I understand."

"Knowledge Daniel's true goal is even more insane than I anticipated."

Daniel opened his eyes, calmly looking at the God of Knowledge. But the God of Knowledge seemed to have guessed something, his expression also grave.

"He doesn't want to become the perfect 'me,' nor does he simply want to devour us," Tom continued. "What he wants is to absorb and fuse a version of 'me' with Inner God traits, and then absorb your [Infinity Possibility], ultimately stealing the very authority of Inner God."

"He wants to make himself the eternal and unique being, surpassing Inner God."

This conclusion shocked Daniel.

"He wants to become the new Inner God?" Daniel asked.

"No, he wants to surpass it."

"Inner God's existence relies on all the world lines of 'Daniel.' But Knowledge Daniel wants to become a being independent of all the world lines, a unique and eternal entity. He wants to sever that dependence and become the true 'one.'"

"To do this, he needs a perfect sacrifice. A version of 'me' with Inner God traits and the [Infinity Possibility]. And Inner God Daniel is the 'nourishment' he has chosen. You are the 'catalyst' he has selected."

Tom's words made the entire chessboard layout become clear and terrifying. This plan surpassed anything Daniel had imagined before.

"Now, I need you to provide more 'unknowns.'"

Land of Origin, at this moment, was undergoing a monumental change.

Daniel had invested massive resources, causing the space to expand at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, dozens of Daniel's avatars were standing in different corners of the space. In front of each of them hovered a massive, pitch-black sword.

[Destruction Blade].

At Daniel's command, all the avatars raised their [Destruction Blades] simultaneously.

"Slash!"

Dozens of streaks of dark sword light shot into the sky, tearing apart the space barriers of the [Land of Origin].

Where the sword light passed, the space shattered like a broken mirror. Tiny glowing points, like fireflies, seeped through the cracks in the broken space.

These were the [Plane Seeds]. The space rifts made by the [Destruction Blade] were like an open net.

Daniel's 13-point luck, acting like the most powerful magnet, wildly attracted the drifting [Plane Seeds] in the void.

Countless glowing points gathered, and the avatars immediately sprang into action. They reached out and caught the glowing points, collecting them one by one.

This process was simple, crude, and yet incredibly efficient.

In just one hour—only one hour—when the space rifts slowly healed, a mountain of [Plane Seeds] had already accumulated in front of Daniel.

Each seed represented an undeveloped world embryo. Seeing the result in front of him, Daniel was left slightly stunned.

With the stable spatial passage created by [Destruction Blade] and the terrifying boost from his 13 points of luck, collecting [Plane Seeds] had become as simple as breathing.

"That's enough," Daniel gathered all the [Plane Seeds] together.

Mental World Line,

Daniel looked calmly at the God of Knowledge before him.

At this moment, the God of Knowledge was still immersed in calculations.

The information Daniel had provided held too many possibilities for him. Although he now knew Knowledge Daniel's ultimate goal, that was only the final objective.

Without knowing the full plan of the enemy, everything else was meaningless.

Now, the God of Knowledge was continuously deducing Knowledge Daniel's plan. But even for him, this was not a simple task.

Meanwhile, Daniel was also using Mental Deduction, silently speculating about all the potential events that could unfold.

In fact, even though the God of Knowledge had pointed out a huge crisis, Daniel still did not fully trust him.

After all, he already knew how cunning the God of Knowledge was.

How could Daniel not take precautions, even while cooperating with him?

But it was precisely because of these precautions that Daniel found it even harder to see the truth through the thick Mist.
