Honest Tribunal

But then again...

Was Avlos really so guilty that he had to be thrown into eternity, never to be freed?

He was already a dual messenger at the time. Imprisoning him meant simultaneously challenging 【Birth】 and 【Filth and Corruption】. And these two—one is the source of 【Life】 who ignores worldly affairs and loves her children, and the other is the head of 【Sinking】 whom mysterious and unknown gods stay away from.

How much courage must 【Time】 have to face two gods at the same time?

Even if 【Filth and Corruption】 never appears and never refuses, 【Birth】 had no opinion on this?

Cheng Shi frowned slightly, always feeling that Avlos being imprisoned didn't seem as simple as he imagined.

Furthermore, it's understandable that 【Mirror of No-Loss Dream】 inherited the pure power of 【Memory】, but the 【Filth and Corruption】 taste that couldn't be covered up in 【Nightmare of the Other Dream, My Dream】—could it just come from the desires in the hearts of the ancient People in the Mirror?

Even if their desires were controlled by 【Filth and Corruption】, they didn't turn to 【Filth and Corruption】. They still held piety in their hearts, but this twisted piety... could it really "pollute" a subordinate god's relic to this extent?

It seems that only after getting 【Nightmare of the Other Dream, My Dream】 can I deeply study what other magical things are in this mirror, and whether the nightmare shadow Long Wang I guessed is really planning something.

Avlos, who finished recounting the past in one breath, returned to calm. The anger just now was just an emotional outburst when falling into memories. After experiencing countless time baptisms in Dolgode, he had long been accustomed to these.

He put his clothes back on, changed back to a male body, and walked slowly to Cheng Shi's side, observing the frowning Cheng Shi with interest, saying:

"Fathomed anything out of it?"

At this time, Cheng Shi's train of thought had long since diverged. A thought suddenly rose in his mind:

If 【Mirror of No-Loss Dream】 and 【Nightmare of the Other Dream, My Dream】 were collected, could they be combined again into a complete 【Mirror of Memory and Delusion】?

He now knew who had both mirror fragments.

And what would the complete 【Memory and Delusion】 be used for?

Cheng Shi was very curious, so he asked this last question. Avlos was stunned. He originally thought Cheng Shi was thinking about 【Time】, but didn't expect the other party to be thinking about 【Memory】.

"No one knows what the mirror representing 【Memory】's gaze is used for. It has never shown its true utility.

However, my brother, why do you want to think about this? Aren't we targeting 【Time】?"

"Ahahaha..." Cheng Shi hurriedly withdrew his thoughts and responded with a smile, "Two-pronged approach. Resisting 【Time】 is true, but saving you is also true.

I am thinking, if that mirror can be found and combined, does it mean you have recognized your crime, actively repented, and redeemed yourself for the desire-led past? In this way, for the sake of 【Memory】, 【Time】 might... let you off?"

"I, have no, crime!"

As soon as the voice fell, Avlos shook his head sharply with sharp eyes, denying Cheng Shi's idea.

"Embracing desire is the nature of life. I have never distorted anyone's desire; I just let them face the desires in their hearts.

My brother, I know you are doing this for my own good, but if I admit to the crime, it means I have abandoned my own will, betrayed the gaze of the Benefactor, and deviated from the original intention of 【Filth and Corruption】.

I can't do it, just as I can't give up the guidance of 【Birth】.

People live a lifetime and need to enjoy themselves. If even I can't enjoy myself, how can I talk about building a paradise where everyone in the world is happy."

"......"

Fine, worthy of being a dual messenger with self-consistent faith. You have really mastered this logical closed loop of "born to enjoy, enjoy to be born."

Cheng Shi nodded and stopped discussing this topic. He told Avlos that he already had some ideas, and others needed to be investigated and verified before he could fathom what 【Time】 really thought, and then respond accordingly.

The two discussed it for a while longer. Although Avlos resisted 【Time】, what he cared about more was obviously the fusion of his own faith, so the topic went around and returned to Zainjier.

Cheng Shi didn't forget that he had another purpose for this trip: the doctor's abnormality was suspected to be the awakening of a second personality. He had to be careful and cautious so as not to let the Clown fall into a crisis because of this.

At this time, Wang Mou and Galiusha's five senses were all closed, so Cheng Shi's words were naturally more straightforward. But he definitely couldn't say it was a Clown review, so he just made up an excuse about his player identity, saying he had tricked two 【Truth】 believers over just to see if they could help the "laboratory" in Dolgode.

He said that one of them still coveted Zainjier, and if the other party dared to do anything here, he might as well leave him behind as Zainjier's assistant or food.

And when Avlos heard that this mortal who believed in 【Truth】 wanted to look at the distant truth on the shoulders of predecessors, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What are you laughing at? What happened to Zainjier?" Cheng Shi was panicked by the laughter.

Avlos held his stomach and couldn't stop:

"Since he covets the power of that prisoner so much, then it's better to satisfy him.

Believe me, my brother, this is not necessarily a bad thing for you.

Exactly, since you are here, let me take you to see the faith research institution in Dolgode, which was just established and running...

Honest Tribunal."

"???"

What the hell?

Cheng Shi was bewildered.

This place called Dolgode has a reputation. The Evil Infant Tribunal gave birth to a true "Evil Infant." Won't your Honest Tribunal give me some fancy "Cheng Shi" I don't know?

It is the hometown of 【Birth】 after all. Who wouldn't be afraid of this?

Cheng Shi's footsteps paused, suddenly feeling that it would be good if this visit ended here.

But Avlos was clearly interested. He waved his hand, sent Galiusha and Wang Weijin's five senses back, and then led the three people with different expressions toward the largest building in the city with servants clearing the way.

The doctor saw Avlos's gaze looking at him again and again, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. Galiusha had been "silenced" for so long, and she was even more curious in her heart. When following behind Cheng Shi, she asked quietly:

"Are you very familiar with Avlos?"

Familiar?

I am not familiar with him!

It can't be said that I am completely unfamiliar, uh... how to say this, Schrödinger's familiarity.

When I want to know some secrets from him, I hope he talks to me about everything;

And when he starts taking off his clothes, I only hope that the believer of 【Filth and Corruption】 can have some self-respect...

Cheng Shi sighed, didn't respond, shook his head, and walked forward.

The group soon arrived in front of the huge tribunal. When Cheng Shi saw the two bright Chinese characters "Honest" written on the tribunal, he knew that the things hidden inside must be extremely abstract.

"Chinese? It seems there are players helping with the scientific research construction in Dolgode?

Fate Weaver, is it you?"

The doctor looked at Cheng Shi thoughtfully. Before Cheng Shi could answer, Avlos spoke first.

"It's not him, it's a wise man smarter than you.

Compared to everyone's introverted desire, I prefer that straightforward and flamboyant Mr. Puppet."

Wise man, puppet—anyone with normal intelligence would know this refers to Wei Mu!

The doctor was stunned, obviously not expecting Wei Mu to be one step ahead in finding people, and had already found Zainjier.

"Let's go, let me show you the progress of Dolgode in faith research."

Saying that, Avlos pushed the door and walked in.

Cheng Shi's mouth twitched, modestly letting the other two go first. After all three walked in, he grabbed the door frame and quietly poked his head in to take a look.

But just this one look made his pupils shake, and he froze in place.

"This is..."

Both players paused, and Wang Weijin's eyes flashed with brilliance, his tone excited:

"Star Dagger!

The breath of 【Birth】 and 【Filth and Corruption】 intersect and collide, but not violently, as if they have found a path of fusion. This is simply a perfect 【Truth】 experiment reproduction!

It's just that the Doomsday Upside-Down Man who holds the sun and lifts the moon... why is he wearing a mask?"

"???"

I said it, things are starting to get abstract. ===== CHAPTER 1105 =====
