Chapter 1013: Sure enough, this round is stable!

~7 min read 1,372 words

Sure enough, this round is stable!

Noisy shouting poured into his ears first, followed by the familiar smell of gunpowder smoke rushing into his nasal cavity.

Cheng Shi didn't open his eyes yet, his heart skipped a beat first.

Bad, why is there war again?

Isn't it 【Truth】's experiment? Why does it feel like I was thrown back to the Boro Heights again!?

As the uneasy thoughts gradually solidified, Cheng Shi's consciousness also returned quickly. He first retreated a step cautiously, and then opened his eyes. And just with this one look, he knew that what 【Fate】 brought was indeed a good omen!

This round is stable, because he matched with an old friend:

Life Sage, Hu Xuan!

Sometimes 【Fate】 is so magical. Cheng Shi had just falsely said to the Doctor that he was going to ask Hu Xuan, and now Hu Xuan appeared directly.

This quasi-Messenger of 【Birth】 also just opened her eyes at this time. The two people's gazes crossed the round table and collided tacitly for the first time, and then both smiled.

They both felt this round was stable.

Then the two people's gazes shifted quietly to look at the surroundings, each sizing them up. The place where they descended was clearly a conference room, or to be more specific, a conference room belonging to the Tower of Reason, because the walls were covered with the Tower of Reason's emblems and flags.

In front of Cheng Shi was a huge round table, but it looked like this round table that could accommodate dozens of people only had seven seats, one of which was empty, and on the other six seats, six corpses were lying or slumped.

Looking at the appearance and clothing of these corpses, it was not hard to find that they were all great scholars, and judging by the color of the scholar ribbons on their chests...

Hmm? Scholarly Chair Council!?

As soon as this thought arose, a huge roar suddenly came from outside the window.

The awakened players frowned and looked over, only to see on another high tower outside the high tower where they were, a figure laughing crazily was holding a trembling scholar, and amidst the cheers of the crowd beside him and the crying of the scholars under the tower, he madly let go and threw the scholar straight down.

"Ah——bang!"

The screaming stopped abruptly, and the scholar became a pool of flesh and blood upon falling. The players present looked with condensed gazes. The square-faced little fatty beside Cheng Shi frowned tightly, spitting out a name that shocked Cheng Shi's heart with an extremely complex tone:

"Galiusha......"

Who!?

Cheng Shi was taken aback and immediately looked at the little fatty:

"The destruction of the Tower of Reason?

We bumped into Galiusha, doesn't that mean these present are..."

"Correct, Scholarly Chair Council!" Another player spoke.

This player stood opposite Cheng Shi, long and burly, very similar in physique to Da Yi, but his knowledge was clearly several grades stronger than Da Yi's.

Only to see him lift the arm of the great scholar closest to him, his fingers playing with the corpse and pointing at every corpse on the table, introducing the Scholarly Chair Council members who died here in a very weird tone:

"Warren, the pathfinder of the Consciousness Faith Department; Galadli, the backbone of the Life Extension Department; Ernie, the head of the Mechanical Engineering Department... These three are the top three figures in the Scholarly Chair Council with the most weight.

There are also Bulza, Asgis, and Neriwell. Very good, except for the traitor Pelaya, everyone else was wiped out.

Judging from the information I exchanged from the History School, they should have all died at Galiusha's hands, so who can tell me, who killed these great scholars one step ahead of that lunatic?

A pity, I still wanted to dig out fascinating truths from their mouths."

Saying that, this burly man actually tore off Ernie's arm directly and greedily sucked the blood on the severed arm.

"Ah~

This is the aura precipitated by 【Truth】......

A pity, Ernie, you can't fuse with me in a younger way."

That almost dark blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, dripping onto the floor, splashing all around. Another male player with skin as white as light beside him frowned, moved away from him by three points, and said disgustedly:

"Hmph, with you in the Association of Reason, how can there still be reason."

Hmm?

This burly man is from the Association of Reason?

Then it's not strange. The Association of Reason is a gathering place for famous lunatics, but it's indeed rare to be this crazy.

Hu Xuan was also beside this person. She clearly also knew this burly man. Seeing the trace of doubt flashing across Cheng Shi's brows, she thought for a while and decisively chose...

On the table!

Correct, Hu Xuan didn't say a word, lifted her skirt, and stepped onto the table gracefully.

The round table was too big, and no matter which side one walked around, it was a bit of a waste of time. It was better to just take the nearest path.

And her slightly exaggerated move undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention. Of course, everyone recognized who she was, so what everyone was looking at wasn't her, but her target.

Those who knew Hu Xuan knew that this 【Birth】 divine selection always gave birth to children in trials, so they guessed one after another whether this "stranger" who also looked a bit familiar would be the father of her first child.

To be fair, whenever he encountered Hu Xuan doing something like this in the past, Cheng Shi would have had to retreat at least ten steps to show his respect, but this time, not only did he not retreat, he actually took a step forward, reached out his hand, and with a brilliant smile, helped Hu Xuan down from the table.

He knew this was Hu Xuan increasing his momentum. A "prey" favored by the 【Birth】 divine selection, at least before she succeeded, should be very safe.

And seeing Cheng Shi understand her meaning, Hu Xuan also landed with a smile and said:

"Looks like you're prepared today, Cheng Shi?"

"?"

Cheng Shi gave Hu Xuan a white eye unhappily, and then asked in a low voice: "Who is that person?"

Hu Xuan first nodded to the little fatty beside Cheng Shi, and then stood side by side with Cheng Shi to introduce him:

"Wei Zhi, the current divine selection of 【Truth】, and also the head of the Association of Reason."

Who!?

Cheng Shi was taken aback and muttered: "He is that big lunatic in Zhen Yi's mouth?"

"Big lunatic?

I'm just trying to become Zhen Xin's third personality to accelerate her seeking truth in 【Void】. How does that deserve the word 'crazy'?"

Wei Zhi's hearing was good; he clearly heard Cheng Shi's words. He smiled, put down Ernie's arm, licked his lips contentedly, and then looked at Cheng Shi with burning eyes:

"Fate Weaver, Jester, Cheng Shi......

Finally met. Speaking of which, I have to thank you.

If you hadn't finished off 0221, how would I have such an opportunity to approach 【Truth】?"

Saying that, he looked at Hu Xuan again, seemingly understanding something.

"I understand. So Goliss's origin is here. Didn't expect the only player who penetrates 【Void】 to have hooked up with 【Birth】. A pity, 【Birth】's will is too conservative and has no fate with 【Truth】.

However, I still appreciate you very much.

Cheng Shi, how about making a deal?

Is Zainjier still alive? You know, a great scholar who has become a pseudo-god has a fatal attraction to me. I can exchange everything I have with you for him, how about it?"

Cheng Shi looked at this Association of Reason head who was half-stained with blood and pursed his lips speechlessly.

"Business isn't done like this.

If you really want to thank me, give me something practical.

When I see your gratitude, I'll consider whether to make this deal with you."

As soon as the words fell, the long-haired man who had been silent on Cheng Shi's other side clapped lightly:

"Interesting, a wonderful person." ===== CHAPTER 1014 =====
