Chapter 1053: No vulgar hands at the peak, Wei Zhi's backup plan
No vulgar hands at the peak, Wei Zhi's backup plan
Wei Zhi ran away.
Although Death Knell Knights saw his figure appear somewhere in the west of the city, it was still too difficult to let a group of ordinary NPCs keep up with a player controlled by a Great Scholar.
No matter what, Tusnat was the home field of the Scholarly Chair Council. No matter how many people the Yu Hui Sect had, compared to familiarity with the geography and terrain, they couldn't compare to the Great Scholars who had operated here for many years.
When Cheng Shi received this news, he showed no surprise. Of course the Great Scholars had to struggle a bit; if the other party sat still and waited for death, that was when he should be worried, and then he would have to think about what new traps these old things who believed in 【Truth】 were digging again.
The current situation had changed from the initial reality confrontation to a void game between the two sides. Everyone knew that the most critical factor determining the success of the experiment was not on the two sides, but on the fleeing Wei Zhi, so blindly attacking the Great Scholars was no longer useful. At this time, the most important thing was to find the last piece of the puzzle to restore the limit of truth.
The other players returned one after another and came to Cheng Shi's side. Cheng Shi explained everything at the moment to the few people who had some realization again, and under the gaze of everyone with different expressions, he gathered the remains of the other four Great Scholars, except for the two that Wei Zhi had swallowed.
At the beginning of the trial, Fang Yuan, Meng Youfang, and Hu Xuan each took one, and at this time they all returned them. It's just that the Sage also had a big belly when returning the corpse, which made Cheng Shi have to guess whether this believer of 【Birth】 had done something to the Great Scholar's corpse in her hand again.
Seeing Cheng Shi's strange gaze, Hu Xuan didn't care. She didn't have any explanation, but instead reminded Cheng Shi:
"Rest assured, the process of my gestation is very fast. If you want to, there is enough time."
"???"
What am I assured of?
What do I want to do?
Whose time is enough!?
Big sister, can you 【Birth】 people be a little more reliable... You have enough time to give birth to a child, but our trial time is not enough at all!
Cheng Shi was speechless. He didn't delve into why the other party would be pregnant at this critical moment, but just arranged for everyone to disperse again to find Wei Zhi's whereabouts, and instructed everyone that once they found the person, they must not act rashly, and should send a signal in time to wait for everyone to surround and then act.
The teammates responded and left. Even Chen Yi, who had always looked down on the believers of 【Deception】, had to temporarily listen to Cheng Shi's arrangements. After all, the Great Scholars had used practical actions to hinder his relationship with the Lord, and compared to Cheng Shi, who hadn't done any "wrong things" yet, the Scholarly Chair Council was clearly more hateful.
After sending away his teammates, Cheng Shi fell into deep thought again. At this time, they were in the west of the city, and not far away was the underground experimental field blown up by Galiusha. Cheng Shi and the Great Scholars looked at each other from afar, as if conducting a triple game of brainpower, psychology, and logic.
Galiusha watched Cheng Shi in front of her motionless, thought for a moment, and then smiled:
"If you have any other means, just take them out. You said yourself that you want to accelerate the progress, so don't waste time at this moment."
Cheng Shi raised his head slightly and laughed: "How do you know I still have means?"
"Your companions have been gone for a while. If you didn't have a backup plan, you should have been in a hurry to find people long ago. How could you still be standing here pretending to be deep."
"..."
Why is this pretending? I am really thinking!
Cheng Shi curled his lips: "Can't I be standing here attracting the attention of the Great Scholars, so as to pull out the necessary time and space for my teammates?"
Galiusha glanced at Cheng Shi sideways and sneered:
"Would you believe it yourself?
Praising you for being smart doesn't mean letting you treat others as fools.
Do you really think you are a believer of 【Dementia】?
Even if you want to be a wooden stake to attract Wolunte's attention, I am still here. If time is really tight, you wouldn't not use my means to do something, but you haven't arranged anything, which means the next backup plan is where I should play a role.
Don't hide it, tell me, what do you need me to do?
As long as I can make 【Truth】 fall at my feet, I can do anything."
Cheng Shi nodded, didn't speak, and fell into deep thought again.
He didn't distrust Galiusha, nor was he attracting the attention of the Great Scholars to pull search space for his teammates as he said, but was thinking about whether this backup plan was a real backup plan or another trap.
Cheng Shi naturally had a backup plan, but this backup plan wasn't prepared by him, but...
Prepared by Wei Zhi!
This president of the Reason Association seemed to have left a backup plan for Cheng Shi—no, I should say for himself—from the beginning, and this backup plan was...
Brain flowers!
The brains of those two Great Scholar corpses.
Wei Zhi's reason for approaching Cheng Shi at that time wasn't abrupt. He brought the so-called best corpse parts to Cheng Shi under the pretext of asking about Zainjier, and Cheng Shi did indeed accept them.
Given the situation at the time, Cheng Shi only felt that this fighting expert was being falsely polite, and by the way, was probing for information and finding someone to step on mines and break the formation for him.
And after learning that the other party had cooperation with the Scholarly Chair Council, Wei Zhi's behavior was labeled as betrayal. The act of revealing the timber warehouse in the west of the city was undoubtedly to lure Cheng Shi into the trap, confusing the public to achieve the goal of blurring the existence of the limit of truth.
But things are not immutable. Looking back at Wei Zhi's operations at that time, Cheng Shi couldn't help but wonder if this president of the Reason Association had long anticipated that he might fail in his cooperation with the Scholarly Chair Council, so he had made preparations early on?
You know, peak players are not just crazy; they are very shrewd.
Thinking about it, Cheng Shi felt that this line of thinking was becoming more and more correct, so he took Galiusha to a corner of the ruins, avoided the gaze of the Great Scholars, took out the two brain flowers Wei Zhi left for him, pointed at them, and asked:
"If I say these are the only parts left by the two corpses that were swallowed...
Galiusha, can we use this to complete the restoration of the limit of truth?"
Galiusha's gaze condensed. Looking at the two white brains in front of her, she actually licked the corner of her mouth unconsciously first.
This small action scared Cheng Shi, who instantly took back the Great Scholars' brains and instinctively took a step back.
Galiusha glanced at Cheng Shi and said:
"You took them back so fast, I didn't even have time to see them clearly. How can I judge whether they can be used?"
Cheng Shi's expression was happy: "Is there really a way to use them?"
"Of course, the brain is the carrier of wisdom. On this filthy land of Tusnat, there are countless ways to restore the original life form through this consciousness carrier.
It's just that whether the restored life form still has the characteristics of the limit of truth needs to be verified again, but I don't deny that this is indeed a method.
Interesting, I see your expression, this doesn't seem to be something you prepared. Who left this stuff for you?
Let me guess, that traitorous Wanderer?
Heh, you are all indeed very smart.
However... since he could leave these to you, haven't you thought about whether one of these two brains might be his own?"
"???"
Cheng Shi was dumbfounded.
What kind of ghost story are you telling?
Can Wei Zhi's brain be here?
He took out his own brain, wouldn't his body become an empty shell?
Galiusha hummed and laughed, and continued to explain:
"It seems you are far from understanding the madness of 【Truth】. The existence of a life form is never limited to 'original' and 'matching'. As long as it is relatively complete, it is a kind of excellent experimental material in the eyes of scholars.
Of course, this is just my guess. I am thinking that since that traitorous Wanderer anticipated his own ending early on, then instead of letting you restore Ernier and Galadli, why not restore him directly?
So I guess one of these two brains is most likely his.
Mr. Prisoner, take them out and let me see?"
Looking at the playful smile on Galiusha's lips, Cheng Shi's eyelids jumped violently, and he said: "You'd better not be doing this to eat brain flowers."
"I am not as terrifying as that traitor of yours."
"?"
You are not terrifying?
Not sister, who gave you the confidence to say such things?
Is it you yourself who strung up the Great Scholars' heads and roasted them in history?
Cheng Shi was numb, but in order to destroy this experiment, he had to take out the brains again for Galiusha to observe.
After Galiusha frowned and studied for a long time, she suddenly pulled out a strange smile:
"I guessed right, it is him.
Come with me, I will take you to bring this traitor back!"
Saying that, Galiusha picked up the brains and ran in a certain direction. Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat, and he followed closely behind, chasing and asking:
"Where are you going?"
"I am not an expert in this, someone knows better than me how to restore them, so I am taking you to find someone."
Cheng Shi was stunned when he heard this, and blurted out a name without thinking:
"Pelaya?"
Galiusha's expression softened, and she nodded: "Hmm, it's her." ===== CHAPTER 1054 =====
