Chapter 1147
The Statue Standing on the Fool-Hunter's Grave
"Are you from the Yu Hui Holy See?"
Max widened his eyes, looking expectant.
During the era of the Isolated Tower of Civilization, the will of 【Foolishness】 was rampant, the will of 【Chaos】 was declining, and the power of the Yu Hui Holy See was lost and had gradually become weak and unbearable. But even so, it was still a pilgrimage site for 【Chaos】 believers.
However, the Yu Hui Holy See was not worthy of his identity. Cheng Shi pretended to be mysterious:
"The Yu Hui Holy See is already a thing of the past; it is not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as me.
You don't need to know so much, just know that I am also a 【Chaos】 believer.
Stop talking nonsense, I have some more questions to ask you. Besides the babbling, how much do you know about this statue?"
Max really knew quite a lot. Under the intimacy of the same faith, he told Cheng Shi all the news he knew.
Most of the information Cheng Shi had already learned from the conversations of passersby; only one thing he had never heard of.
"You mean, the Fool-Hunter's statue was built on the grave of the first Fool-Hunter?"
Max nodded:
"Yes, my lord.
Skart, the first Fool-Hunter in history, was the one who first proposed the truth that 'foolishness is a death penalty,' further purifying the concentration of 【Foolishness】 in the Isolated Tower of Civilization at that time, and also giving the army of 【Foolishness】 stronger combat power, once wiping out the remnants of 【Truth】 that were restoring the old order everywhere and the Yu Hui Holy See that was fanning the flames..."
Speaking of this, Max even secretly glanced at Cheng Shi.
"After he died, he was buried here. To commemorate his contribution to the spread of the 【Foolishness】 will, the Isolated Tower of Civilization erected a statue on his grave, making it a place where people's faith gathers, thereby making him closer to their Lord 【Foolishness】.
There is even a rumor that Skart had long been promoted to a Messenger by Him, because someone once saw with their own eyes that when those who knew foolishness and acted foolishly were punished in front of the statue, strange fluctuations would surge within the statue, drawing something out of those sinners.
The public believes this is the tolerant Skart weeding out the foolishness of the sinners, but this kind of thing is hard to verify, and it hasn't appeared for a long time."
Cheng Shi was not interested in the history of Redicor; he just wanted to know if this so-called 【Foolishness】 Messenger... really existed?
【Foolishness】 holds its head high and doesn't look down on all life in this universe at all. If He really took a fancy to something, it would probably only be that high and mighty Creator of the Real Universe, right?
It's interesting to say, Cheng Shi had thought more than once: would 【Foolishness】 despise 【Origin】?
Would He feel that 【Origin】's universe slicing experiment was also a foolish act?
No one could give Cheng Shi an answer to this question. He pondered for a moment, thinking that there were probably no so-called Messengers, but not having a Messenger didn't mean there were no subordinate-god-level creations.
According to Long Wang's theory, since 【Truth】 has a Truth Instrument, then logically, 【Foolishness】 should also likely have a similar creation.
And the various mysteries of the Fool-Hunter statue seemed to indicate that it was unusually close to 【Foolishness】.
So is it possible that clues to His creation are also hidden here?
If this is really the case, then even if this trial fails to find the Eye of Mockery, finding some clues to 【Foolishness】's creations is excellent. After all, creations are the condensation of authority and ability, and finding it might mean being one step closer to His authority.
For a moment, Cheng Shi's heart was burning, and his eyes looking at the statue were full of expectation (greed).
He patted Max on the shoulder, quietly hid a die in the corner of the other's clothes, and then let him go as promised.
After Max left reluctantly, Cheng Shi quietly changed his location and hid in the shadows of the alley, while Shadow Cheng Shi ran toward the statue directly through the darkness.
At this time, the night was quiet and the wind was still, and idlers were far away. Cheng Shi naturally wouldn't let go of this excellent opportunity. He wanted to study this statue up close to see if there was a bigger secret hidden inside than the Eye of Mockery.
And just as Cheng Shi began to operate, Max, who had run several streets away, suddenly paused and stopped in the middle of the road.
His expression disappeared in a second, becoming neither happy nor sad. He slowly took out the die from the corner of his shoulder, examined it repeatedly, and then stuffed it back as it was.
Afterward, he turned to look at the towering statue, his eyes unreadable.
On the other side.
The Fire-Spreader Threat Elimination Plan went bankrupt.
Ji Yue couldn't understand at all how the Fate Weaver could spend a day with this 【Silence】 believer who was never silent.
She only took Chen Shu for half an hour before using the sharpness of her spear tip to "sever ties" with Chen Shu, letting him look in another direction and notify her with fire messages if there was news.
Even to save time, she opened the void for him, fearing he wasn't far enough away from her.
At first, Chen Shu didn't agree. He was worried that if the two separated too far and Ji Yue encountered the other two, he might not be able to provide timely support, putting the Fire-Spreader's Salary-Seeker in danger.
But his worry used the wrong way of expression. The noisy words became the following in the ears of a 【War】 believer:
Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it?
Don't forget, 【War】 and 【Silence】 are rivals. A question from an opposing faith directly ignited Ji Yue's anger. If it weren't for a shred of reason still persisting in her heart, her spear tip would have stabbed Chen Shu again.
But the butt of her spear still slapped Chen Shu into the void.
Chen Shu had to compromise helplessly, and before leaving, he didn't forget to praise the other party:
"No wonder you can spread fire; your temper is really strong."
"...... Get lost!"
Ji Yue didn't know how this "get lost" was squeezed out of her throat. She only felt that she was full of fighting spirit at this moment, wishing she could find someone to fight immediately to vent the irritability in her heart.
And as luck would have it, not long after Chen Shu left, a figure appeared in her field of vision.
Zhao Xishi!
This Historian curled her lips in a cold sneer, looked at Ji Yue with playful eyes and said:
"Bishop, when you refused me, you should have thought of this moment.
Are you ready to accept your own death notice?
War has winners and losers, and His believers cannot win every victory.
This time, how do you want to die?"
As soon as the words fell, an iron fist rushed toward the Fire-Spreader's face. Ji Yue's eyes condensed, and she raised her spear to block, only to find that the spear in her hand had long been annihilated and was nowhere to be found.
Her pupils shrank, and she lowered her body to dodge, but how could a mage block a warrior at close range, especially when this warrior was also a God-Chosen Rank 1?
Ji Yue was hit in the side of the face and sent flying in a second. However, even after being injured, this 【War】 believer didn't choose to defend, but directly tore the void, letting countless spears and swords buried in the ancient battlefield reappear in the world.
It's just that the position where the void opened was not behind Ji Yue as usual, but behind Mo Shu, at the position where she first encountered the enemy.
This position was very subtle; it was far from Mo Shu, but very close to Zhao Xishi.
Distant water cannot put out a nearby fire. Even if this torrent of weapons could block Zhao Xishi, it definitely couldn't block Mo Shu. But the problem was that compared to the auxiliary Historian, the Scavenger was clearly the real fatal threat.
Seen this way, Ji Yue seemed to have made a wrong decision in fear of being hit.
But was it really so?
No!
War is not just about fighting techniques, but more about tactical arrangements.
When Zhao Xishi prepared to resist the anger of a Purgatory Bishop with a cold face, she saw a shining bald head falling from the sky amidst the torrent of spears and swords.
Her pupils shrank, and she shouted in shock and anger: "Chen Shu! You didn't leave!?"
"If I left, how could I move into your heart?"
Chen Shu laughed loudly, his whole body smashing into Zhao Xishi's chest and abdomen like a cannonball.
Ji Yue, who was being pushed back by the infinite power of 【Annihilation】 behind her, coughed up blood and sneered at Mo Shu:
"Tianji horse racing, guess which inferior horse will die first?"
