Chapter 1027: Respecting the Lord of [Chaos] with an Orderly Ritual

Respecting the Lord of 【Chaos】 with an Orderly Ritual

Regarding the matter of finding the traces of the great scholars, Cheng Shi was naturally not in a hurry.

Not to mention that the 3-day time limit of this trial already indicated that the players still had time, he held the Twilight Church in his hands, and that handwritten note issued still had some serious matters written on it, and finding the traces of the great scholars was one of them.

Now the Death Knell Knights might have already taken action. The only thing Cheng Shi had to do was find a place to avoid that lunatic of 【Memory】, and then wait for the meeting time to gather with the Sage and the Bard.

Of course, there was another important thing to do in the middle.

He walked through the streets in the central area of the city and witnessed with his own eyes how the will of 【Chaos】 swept across this land of 【Truth】. The Death Knell Knights held their long spears high, bringing wounds and death to the people and scholars of Tusnat. The resistance forces had almost collapsed, and a large number of scholars gathered under the Tomorrow Truth Tower, swearing to defend this last glory of 【Truth】.

Galiusha stood on a high platform built with the heads of scholars, looking at the floor where the Scholarly Chair Association was located, ready to issue the order for a general attack at any time.

And it was at this moment that an old man of the Twilight Church walked to Galiusha's side and shook his head at her.

Galiusha frowned. Although her expression carried dissatisfaction, she still took a step back and made room for the old man.

The old man stood on the heads of the scholars and said something to the knights at his feet. The Death Knell Knights were puzzled but still obeyed the order. For a time, they all lowered their long spears.

Not long after, the whole city gradually quieted down from the disorderly chaos, and even the smoke became less dense.

And it was at this moment that a prayer sound resounded through the sky throughout the city.

"Fictional laws, a joke of the universe!"

The believers of 【Chaos】 at this moment abandoned chaos, resonated in unison, and offered their piety to the supreme 【Chaos】 with an orderly ritual prepared in advance.

The players scattered throughout the city were startled by this sudden prayer sound. They were very puzzled to see the Death Knell Knights looking up and praying to the sky, thinking that the Twilight Church was initiating some insane world-destroying array.

Only Cheng Shi, hiding in a corner in the center of the city, smiled secretly and snapped his fingers.

"Done!"

He moved without hesitation and ran toward the west of the city, but didn't head straight to the place Wei Zhi mentioned. Instead, he used agile actions and sharp vision to complete the investigation puzzle of this city.

The west of the city was a slum. The building scale and street state here were significantly different from the other districts. The intricate alleys should have become the biggest obstacle to searching, but the Death Knell Knights had already solved these troubles for their "boss."

After a brief interval of 【Order】, chaos spread again, and the whole city fell into the flames of war again. Cheng Shi saw with his own eyes that the west of the city was reduced to ruins under the trampling of the Death Knell Knights, but he never found a place that looked like it could hide people.

The Twilight Church had also never sent a message, which meant that the search work was not going well. In desperation, Cheng Shi had to shift his focus to the place Wei Zhi mentioned just now: the timber market warehouse.

In fact, in the previous search, Cheng Shi had already looked at that place from afar. That place had long been razed to ruins, and the so-called timber had all burned into ashes. At a glance, there was no place to hide people.

But the ground not being able to hide people didn't mean the underground couldn't hide people, especially in a place like Tusnat where laboratories were everywhere. It was too normal for there to be some experimental places or large spaces buried deep underground.

Thus, Cheng Shi, who had searched once, began to shift his focus to the underground space. Searching underground was much slower than running on the ground. Without the help of the big cat rushing, Cheng Shi could only find the entrance to the underground bit by bit.

Not long after, he really found an entrance under a collapsed wall corner on the side of the timber warehouse!

It was just that there were faint traces of magic array fluctuations at the entrance. If one didn't go close to look, one wouldn't find that there was a different world under this wall corner.

"Really here?"

Cheng Shi frowned, always feeling that this matter was wrong everywhere.

Wei Zhi was definitely not a fool. Being able to explain the specific location where the Scholarly Chair Association was hiding after seeing his own distant attitude was already strange, coupled with the other party's identity as the president of the Reason Association...

Don't forget, the Reason Association was an organization founded under the influence of the Tower of Reason to a certain extent. Although this organization chose a path completely different from the Tower of Reason on the road to madness, it could not be denied that in order to achieve their wishes, madmen had always used all means.

So Wei Zhi would definitely not be so kind.

Looking at his position of wanting to leave all corpses to eat at the beginning of the game, this person might not have taken the trial seriously at all. What he wanted was just to reap the greatest benefits in this trial. After all, not everyone had the luck to be ranked in the end of the Scholarly Chair Association.

Thinking this way, there was only one possibility for him to tell himself this place...

"Using me to step on thunder?"

"Tsk, what a good calculation."

Cheng Shi smiled. He noted this position and then walked away, pretending he had never been here.

And not long after he left, a piece of house ruins not far away suddenly collapsed, rubble and dust flying, falling and stacking, and in the hole of the ruins supported by broken wood and rubble, a pair of blood-stained eyes quietly opened, and a sneer came from under the ruins.

"What a cautious person, but who comes is who comes."

Cheng Shi didn't pin all his hopes on the underground of the timber warehouse. After he left, he still circled in the west of the city. Along the way, he found many underground spaces, but unfortunately, most of them were destroyed by the Death Knell Knights, and only a few were complete, and there were no breath fluctuations inside.

As time lengthened, Cheng Shi knew that it was probably there, but the steady him still dragged it to the meeting time of the crowd and returned to the vicinity of the Yesterday Truth Tower.

At this time, Galiusha had already led the team into Tomorrow Truth. The lower floors of the high tower had simply become a meat grinder. Countless Death Knell Knights surged in like a tide, and then were pushed out by the roaring magic. After one back and forth, corpses were piled up everywhere.

Of course, the scholars were worse off. The Death Knell Knights died and at least counted as corpses, but as long as one scholar died on the scholar side, they were beheaded by Galiusha and strung into a string.

She wantonly set fires under the high tower, roasting the scholars' heads until they shattered, seemingly wanting to use this method to drive 【Truth】 out of people's heads.

This scene made the scholars in Tomorrow Truth furious and terrified. The magic attack they used on the Twilight Church was magic, but the "magic attack" Galiusha used on them was also magic, and it was a "magic attack" that destroyed reason.

"This is an out-and-out lunatic. I don't deny that time has precipitated wisdom in her, but it has also distilled her madness."

"Stay away from her, otherwise, madness is contagious." ===== CHAPTER 1028 =====
