Who Will Break the Game?

Fang Yuan arrived first. This square-faced little fatty was indeed the person who followed order the most in this trial, even though he was also crowned with the name of not following order, but he still arrived at Yesterday Truth before the agreed time.

He hid in a corner of the high tower ruins and waved at Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi was also hiding in a corner. He couldn't possibly stand on the ruins openly and wait for people to discover him. However, after Fang Yuan greeted him, he didn't move, but invited Fang Yuan to his side, and at the same time asked the other party what clues he had found with his eyes.

Fang Yuan sometimes felt that this Fate Weaver was okay in every way, just too cautious. With his skill level, it was impossible to be discovered by walking these two steps.

But when he arrived at Cheng Shi's side, he realized that he had underestimated this Fate Weaver's caution, because he clearly saw that in that collapsed ruin corner, there were actually three magic lamps blocking half the light.

The light illuminated the corner without any shadows, and Fang Yuan said speechlessly:

"I thought you were defending against the Twilight Church, but I didn't expect you were defending against Chen Yi?"

Cheng Shi smiled: "Caution is never wrong. Don't have the heart to harm others, but don't lack the heart to guard against others."

"Galiusha is a lunatic, must guard against her. Our teammates are also lunatics, of course, must also guard against them."

Hearing this, Fang Yuan's expression was strange: "Fate Weaver, you are implying something."

"Being His believer without being sarcastic twice doesn't make me look pious. Rest assured, I'm not being sarcastic about you."

"How is it, what did you find?"

"Nothing." Fang Yuan's face turned serious in a second, "I saved quite a few scholars through means of saving people and learned about some secret laboratories from their mouths, but none of these places found traces of great scholars, at most just some refugees."

"To be honest, the time you agreed on is too short. Tusnat is so big, even if there is only one direction, it is very difficult for me to conduct a detailed search."

"However, my intuition tells me that the Scholarly Chair Association is not in the south of the city. How about you, what did you find?"

"A trap."

"A trap?" Fang Yuan was stunned, "Whose trap? The great scholar's trap? Did you find them?"

"Not sure. I suspect it might also be a trap left for us by that person from the Reason Association, so I had to come back and discuss with you all before going to explore the reality."

As he spoke, Cheng Shi frowned. The agreed time was about to arrive, why hadn't the Sage returned yet?

The two were discussing Wei Zhi's strange behavior. At the moment the agreed time arrived, Meng Youfang appeared on time, walking toward the two with an expression neither happy nor sad.

Seeing the inquiring gaze Cheng Shi cast, he shook his head and said:

"No discovery at all. There are many traces of experiments, and there are many experimental fields, but they have nothing to do with the Scholarly Chair Association."

"I gave up the most conspicuous buildings and specifically searched the inconspicuous alleys and corners, but still found nothing."

"Along the way, I subdued countless Death Knell Knights and scholars, but none of them could provide useful information."

"This is the city of 【Truth】 after all. As rulers, it is too easy for the great scholars to hide themselves."

As he spoke, Meng Youfang pointed to the sky and smiled, "For example, the void, have you been to the experimental fields there?"

As soon as the words fell, the sky above the ruins suddenly tore open, and a black shadow jumped down from the void gracefully. As soon as she landed, she shook her head at Cheng Shi:

"No, the situation in the void is no better than Tusnat. The Twilight Church has not forgotten the means of the great scholars. The flames of war are also raging there, even more intense than in reality."

"There is no one in the north of the city either. At least in the places I can think of, I haven't seen any traces left by the great scholars."

Cheng Shi naturally believed Hu Xuan, but it was hard to say about others. Fang Yuan heard Hu Xuan's words and frowned in confusion:

"Sage, I am not denying your ability, but in a limited time, you have to search the north of the city and also browse the void..."

"I mean, did you search carefully?"

Hu Xuan looked at Fang Yuan and smiled: "Naturally. Perhaps my method is more careful than yours. If you don't believe it, come~"

She stretched out her hand toward Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan's face changed, and he believed it.

"..."

It was still quite interesting when this scene happened to others. Cheng Shi wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so he coughed a few times and told everyone about the secret space he found in the west of the city under Wei Zhi's reminder.

Meng Youfang heard it and was about to take risks without saying a word. Cheng Shi hurriedly pulled him back, thinking that I finally found a scapegoat. If you have a problem, how can I operate later?

But this action made Meng Youfang think wrong. He thought that Foolish Play was reminding him that the trap was dangerous, disguisedly lowering the trial difficulty he encountered, so he said righteously:

"I must face all trials directly and not leave any flaws on the road to return."

"My good brother, I can understand your eagerness to reunite with me, but the rules must be followed. This is the path I should walk."

"..."

Once these words came out, the only believer of 【Order】 at the scene couldn't hold it back. He glanced at Meng Youfang with a strange expression, always feeling that the other party would call his Benefactor brother in the next second.

Sure enough, Meng Youfang immediately added: "... and also my respect for my old friend 【Order】."

"..."

Cheng Shi's brain hurt. He was thinking about what spell could cure delusional disorder?

You respect 【Order】 so much, does 【Chaos】 sitting on the divine throne of 【Order】 know?

Regardless of who knows and who doesn't, in short, it was impossible for Cheng Shi to let the scapegoat take risks, so he had to propose a safer suggestion.

"The trial is."

"Even if Wei Zhi has some small thoughts, at least he said that location. So, shouldn't that teammate who didn't contribute at all express something?"

Cheng Shi said this clearly to Chen Yi, but there was no believer of 【Memory】 among the people present.

Everyone looked around, only thinking that Cheng Shi had already discovered the other party's existence, not knowing that Cheng Shi didn't know where Chen Yi was at all.

He just feared that this lunatic would have nothing to do and turn around to start military training on himself, so he thought about finding something for the other party to do and utilizing it smoothly.

Hu Xuan didn't understand, and asked in confusion: "Even if he is here, how could he listen to you?"

"I didn't want him to listen to me either. I just said it casually. What if 【Memory】 is also in that underground space?"

"?"

This was purely nonsense. Smart people could hear it. This hook was too straight; it was too straight to hold in the mouth.

But Cheng Shi changed his tone and said:

"Even if He is not there, that memory of being willing to be used and self-inscribed just to see Him, I think it should also be qualified to enter His collection hall and become a collection item to please Him... right?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone only felt that something was missing in a shadow beside them.

"!!!"

Not brother, you are really here?

Even if you are here, you really bite the hook?

But where is the hook to bite? Isn't this the fisherman hanging a photo of bait on the fishing rod, and the fish climbing up along the fishing line!?

How can there be such an absurd thing in this world?

Now, everyone couldn't speak.

Fang Yuan looked at Cheng Shi with incomparable shock, widened his eyes and said: "You 【Deception】 started playing open plots? Be a human..."

Cheng Shi didn't expect Chen Yi to be really there. He actually had a backup plan, but since someone was stepping on thunder, the backup plan naturally didn't need to be activated.

He instantly made the same shocked look, played dumb and said: "I said I was just saying it casually. What happened just now?"

"..."

I have seen people talking nonsense with their eyes open, but I have never seen anyone talking nonsense with their eyes open like this. There is really no truth in a liar's mouth.

But regardless of whether the liars' words are true or not, some people's feelings... are too true.

Readers have been asking about Cheng Xiaoshi's birthday. Let me explain it to everyone here:

It is July 13th, the day Lao Jia went online with this book, just count it as Cheng Xiaoshi's adoption day.

The real birthday should actually be around January 23rd, because that was when I wrote the name Cheng Shi on the draft without opening the book, but I changed it too many times in the middle, resulting in the specific date on the software being gone... I didn't remember it either... but it's not a big problem. It perfectly fits the situation of an orphan being abandoned without knowing his real birthday. It's extremely realistic (confirmed), so I just took the day Lao Jia appeared as Cheng Xiaoshi's birthday. Fun~

There is one more thing. I haven't told everyone about the progress of the physical book. It's in the works. The first volume is expected to be released within this year. The specific time is not certain. I will report to the readers when there is progress!

Finally, thank you for your support and love. Three bows! ===== CHAPTER 1029 =====
