Chapter 1188
Knowing but speaking nonsense
Reality, an office building in an unknown province.
After returning, Ji Yue lay on the bed without moving, she was sorting out her thoughts and memories.
She remembered her original intention of joining the fire-passer, which was both to let the world be free from suffering for the continuation of humanity, and to explore the secret of becoming a god and launch an impact on those sixteen high-ranking *He.
However, her choice to join the fire-passer later was not completely deviating from her original intention. At least the existence of the Mutual Aid Society had already proved that she was a good person willing to protect the weak.
But what she was conflicted about now was not these, but the words Cheng Shi said and the things he did when he "recruited" her for the first time.
He said that the fire-passer had a good relationship with 【Deception】, and he was expressing one meaning explicitly and implicitly, that is, 【Deception】 protected the fire-passer.
Of course, at that time Cheng Shi was teaming up with Fang Shiqing to deceive herself, and it was very likely that he was telling lies, but the problem was that verbal lies can deceive people, can the reactions of gods also deceive people!?
She clearly remembered that Cheng Shi took them to find 【Playful Sneer】 and used the "Peeping Mirror" left by 【Deception】 in 【Playful Sneer】 to arrive at the void laboratory of the Li Zhi Tower. If these were all fake, where did Cheng Shi get the ability to conjure a 【Playful Sneer】 in the void?
This is something only gods can do, right?
So 【Playful Sneer】 couldn't be fake, and 【Deception】's reaction couldn't be fake!
That would mean 【Deception】 certainly knew about the fire-passer, and the exchange of everyone in the void might have been known by them long ago. Only in this way could they respond to Cheng Shi's "call" for the first time.
The problem is, since 【Deception】 knew that the fire-passer was established to overthrow the "tyranny" of the gods, why didn't they take action against the fire-passer?
Thinking that the resistance of the fire-passer was a big fun, so they watched the changes?
It's not impossible, but Ji Yue vaguely felt that this matter was definitely not just that. Her sixth sense told her that what Cheng Shi said might be correct, and the one protecting the fire-passer was very likely 【Deception】!
Only 【Deception】 had the reason and angle to hide the traces for a group of mortals.
Although 【Fire of Hope】 is the guardian god of the fire-passer, they are after all only a subordinate god, and a subordinate god abandoned by 【Fate】. Do they really have such great ability to deceive the eyes of sixteen True Gods and protect the fire-passer?
It doesn't seem to make sense.
When Ji Yue hadn't picked up her memories, she naturally wouldn't doubt 【Fire of Hope】, but once the seed of doubt was planted, this thought was like wild grass growing wildly, quickly filling her mind, and could never stop.
She couldn't help but feel suspicious about 【Fire of Hope】's identity, and also vaguely worried about 【Deception】's purpose in protecting the fire-passer.
Just at this moment, the door was knocked.
Ji Yue glanced at the door, shouted "come in," the door was pushed open, a man poked his head in, leaned on the door frame and said seriously:
"Several more Mutual Aid Society residents have successfully merged with 【Fate】, with segments ranging from 1800 to 2200. It seems 【Fate】 has indeed released the faith restriction first.
However, there are still many people who have their own preferred faith to merge with and are not in a hurry to merge with 【Fate】. They are still waiting for the further release of the 【Faith Game】.
Hmm? Ji Yue, are you listening to me?"
Ji Yue was distracted, nodded and shook her head:
"Fang Jue, if I deceived you about something, but didn't cause any harm to you or the Mutual Aid Society, and am still sparing no effort to protect everyone, then what am I doing?"
That's right, the man at the door was Fang Jue, a believer of 【Order】. As an orderly believer of 【Order】, he was not pulled into the fire-passer by Ji Yue, because in Ji Yue's view, the future of the fire-passer was not clear, and she didn't want to impose her will on others, including everyone in the Mutual Aid Society.
Fang Jue blinked, stunned: "Are you going crazy?"
"Bang!"
Ji Yue threw the pillow toward the door and said angrily: "I'm serious. If you found my abnormality, what would you do?"
Fang Jue took the pillow and frowned slightly:
"You deceived us, deceived what?
You are the player with the highest score and strongest combat power here, what do we have that is worth deceiving?
If this is not a simulated deduction of a psychological experiment and a mutual aid test for me personally, Ji Yue, I think we should have a good talk, talk openly and honestly."
Ji Yue first had a bitter expression, then sat up from the bed fiercely, patted her thigh and said:
"That's right, just talk openly and honestly!"
As she spoke, she hurriedly pushed Fang Jue out of the door, left a sentence "you are indeed more pleasing to the eye than before," then locked the door, drew a symbol on the wall by the bed, and stepped directly into the void to go to the Fire-passing Hall.
Fang Jue, who was pushed out of the door, looked at the door panel on the tip of his nose, was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed:
"She really joined some incredible organization behind our backs, but when can this fiery temper be changed, will it really not have any impact on that organization that needs to be kept secret?"
Void, Fire-passing Hall.
Ji Yue's steps were fast, attracting many fire-passers to look sideways. She also met Fang Shiqing, who came to report, in front of the Fire-passing Hall. Looking at this fire-seeker who had deceived herself with Cheng Shi, Ji Yue's face turned black, and she teased:
"Shiqing, how did the God-making Project come about?"
Fang Shiqing's steps paused, tilted her head and said:
"Why ask this? If I remember correctly, it should have been discussed by your predecessor fire-seeker, An Shenxuan, and Qin Xin.
The believers of 【Fate】 probably see further than us. Didn't the Vice President Sun you recruited also prove this point?"
"?"
So serious?
Ji Yue raised her eyebrows, and there seemed to be a guess in her heart, but she was still unwilling, and said with a strange expression: "When I was 2400 points..."
Halfway through the sentence, she raised her chin toward Fang Shiqing.
The ripples of confusion rippled in Fang Shiqing's clear eyes. She blinked and asked suspiciously: "Aren't you already 2700?"
"..."
Boring, this fire-seeker who is keen on guarding beauty has probably used Reminiscence and Mourning to forget what Cheng Shi once did.
Ji Yue sighed, had to accept the boring fact that she was deceived and only she found her memories back. She waved her hand, didn't pay attention to Fang Shiqing's questioning, and walked quickly toward 【Fire of Hope】.
She was going to have an open and honest talk with 【Fire of Hope】!
Fang Shiqing stood in place and watched Ji Yue leave, looking at that fiery back, muttering to herself:
"The heartstrings are high and powerful, but also carry some dull mystery. What did she discover?
2400... what happened at 2400?"
On the other side.
【Fire of Hope】 met a "guest" in a reception room. As soon as this guest entered the door, he seemed to have discovered some peerless secret, and said to them solemnly:
"I know who you are!
You are not the Messenger of 【Fate】, Fire of Hope, but the Messenger of 【Deception】, Envoy Envoy Yu Xi, right!
That's why you let us go find Envoy Envoy Yu Xi, because only in this way can you smoothly transfer the fire-passer's gratitude to you to 【Deception】!
From beginning to end, the one who protected us has always been 【Deception】, not some abandoned fate...
You protected us, but also deceived us, what exactly are you doing... Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi!"
Facing the fire-seeker's so determined questioning, the candle person blinked blankly, was silent for a long time, suddenly pulled out a 【Deception】-style smile on their face, laughed loudly and said:
"You finally found out after all.
Not bad, I am Envoy Envoy Yu Xi, the subordinate god of 【Void】, and also the only Messenger of 【Deception】."
