Chapter 1229: That's a dirty game!

That's a dirty game!

When a swindler surnamed Cheng wants to open his heart to you, the best way is not to believe anything he says next, nor to fall into his rhythm of heart-to-heart talk, but to turn around and leave to prevent being cheated.

Unfortunately, bystanders see clearly while those involved are confused. Not everyone can walk out of Cheng Shi's heart-to-heart game. Almost everyone who feels Cheng Shi's sincerity will stop for a moment, feed back his sincerity with the same sincerity, then get cheated, and subsequently contract a "strange disease" called "trust."

Qin Xin was one of them.

No matter what his stance was, he indeed couldn't become an enemy with Cheng Shi, especially after sensing Cheng Shi's such frankness, he had even less reason to ignore it and act directly.

He lowered the giant bow and frowned:

"Sorry, since you know about the Fire-Spreaders, you should know that I will not and cannot abandon them."

"I must return to my own world and bring this authority back. This is very important to the Fire-Spreaders."

"So no matter what obsession you have with the authority, I will not compromise."

"But considering that in my world, Cheng Shi is a friend of the Fire-Spreaders..."

He scanned the two in front of him with a cautious look and nodded:

"I am willing to give the two of you a chance to explain your identities."

"You are right. If you come from another world, then we indeed shouldn't become enemies."

"I have seen the two of you not long ago. The reason I believe they are my friends is because they witnessed the whole process when I found the authority, and did not have any covetous heart for the authority on me, and even kept 'guarding' me on the periphery until I inherited the authority."

"I think only those who can watch others take away the authority without hostility but only blessings can be considered true friends."

"???"

When hearing this, Cheng Shi finally understood what kind of game those two swindlers had set up for him.

"Fine, fine, fine, that's a dirty game!"

Using the information gap of authority to fool Qin Xin here, and by the way, leaving himself a mess that was difficult to gain the other party's trust, this method was truly disgusting.

The key was that authority was not easy to prove. Probably no one would share authority with others of unknown identity in the real universe.

Hong Lin didn't know the key to it, and after hearing this, she also fell into shock.

She looked at Qin Xin in astonishment, then at Cheng Shi, unable to think of how to refute it for a while.

In all fairness, if it were herself standing in Qin Xin's position at this time, she probably would also find it hard to believe that someone who could leave the authority to her would be a swindler.

"But in this way, didn't I become a swindler?"

"Those two swindlers not only cheated me, but also stole my identity!?"

Hong Lin was anxious and denied it flatly: "Even so, they are fake, we are the real ones."

However, this explanation was too pale, and Qin Xin couldn't believe it.

He understood Hong Lin and knew that the answer to this question couldn't be given by Hong Lin, so he had been waiting for Cheng Shi's response from beginning to end.

Cheng Shi's expression became extremely strange. He thought for a long time but couldn't think of a way to prove his identity from his own perspective, so he could only throw the ball back to Qin Xin.

He explained to Qin Xin what the existence of a world was as the foundation of faith, telling him that the authority of other worlds could not be inherited and acted on behalf of by life in another world. So those two swindlers were not that they didn't covet his authority, but that it was useless to covet it, because the authority Qin Xin could get could never be obtained by those two.

Unless, they were really swindlers from the same world as Qin Xin.

But the top swindlers in the original world who could cheat Cheng Shi were all helping Cheng Shi find the nose of verification in laughter and mockery at this very moment, so how could they appear here.

So Cheng Shi told Qin Xin that he had been cheated, cheated by the swindlers in the real universe.

Qin Xin understood the rules. After thinking about it, he could also understand this rule, and was even willing to believe that Cheng Shi was not a swindler, but he still asked a question that Cheng Shi couldn't answer:

"What are they after?"

"..."

To be honest, Cheng Shi also wanted to know this question.

All along the way, he had indeed been playing wits with those two swindlers, but the problem was, the other party really hadn't gained anything from him, and he hadn't even been able to guess the other party's purpose, only knowing that the other party was cheating. As for why they were cheating...

It couldn't be for fun...

Besides, this matter shouldn't be asked of the victim, it should be asked of the person involved!

Cheng Shi's face was stiff, his expression changed several times, and he finally decided to play an "honest" card.

"I don't know." He laughed at himself and sighed helplessly, "It's funny to say, I also don't know why they wanted to cheat me, cheat Hong Lin, and cheat you."

"But the fact is that they did cheat us."

This explanation was even paler than Hong Lin's flat denial.

Qin Xin smiled, his expression finally not so serious.

He was originally a leader good at recognizing people. With the bonus of the 【War】 authority, his dimension of looking at people was far beyond before. He basically determined that the Cheng Shi in front of him was the real Cheng Shi, just not sure if the other party was the Cheng Shi of his own world.

Of course, even if he was, he didn't want to deny the original Cheng Shi and Hong Lin. He felt they were all good people, at most just not belonging to the same world.

And from Qin Xin's perspective, at least in the real universe, he hadn't encountered "bad people" yet.

Looking at it this way, the universe seemed to still have hope.

Just as the explanation became paler and the heart-to-heart talk fell into a stalemate, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Cheng Shi's mind. He patted the big cat's bear leg and said excitedly:

"Got it, I thought of a way!"

"I should have thought of it earlier. Actually, it's very simple. Since the world and authority are 'bound', we only need to verify whether we can act on behalf of the authority for each other."

"Qin Xin, I know you have doubts and worry that we covet the authority on you, but don't worry, you don't need to do anything, we can complete the verification!"

"Next, I want to grandly introduce the person beside me to you:"

"She is not just my friend Hong Lin, but also the daughter of 【Prosperity】, Fulazhuo, the candidate for 【Prosperity】, and the only agent of the will of 【Prosperity】!"

"She inherited the authority of 【Prosperity】, so as long as Hong Lin 'shares' the authority with you, looking at the result will naturally tell whether you and I come from the same world."

"I think you shouldn't refuse such a steady method, right?"

"!!!"

Qin Xin was shocked.

"Hong Lin is the new 【Prosperity】!?"

He hadn't forgotten Sun Miao's analysis in the Fire-Spreading Hall. This "Vice President" had once said that someone had already stolen the throne of 【Prosperity】. Now it seemed that everything the other party said was correct.

Qin Xin just didn't expect Hong Lin to be that lucky one.

Of course, Hong Lin's strength was enough, and her will was close enough, just...

Forget it, Qin Xin didn't continue to think. He looked at Hong Lin in astonishment, but saw that Hong Lin had no objection to this proposal.

What did this mean?

This was not just a manifestation of the deep friendship between the two opposite, but it further showed that Cheng Shi could influence the "distribution" of a true god's authority, even just by words!

Could it be that the throne under Hong Lin was pushed up by Cheng Shi?

Otherwise, why would she trust Cheng Shi so much?

Thinking of this, Qin Xin suddenly realized.

Then it was no wonder they also came to find the authority of 【War】. It seemed that this Fate-Weaver also wanted to push a player onto the throne of 【War】.

Qin Xin pondered for a moment. He didn't accept or refuse this proposal, but asked curiously:

"Who is the person you chose?"

"What?" Cheng Shi pretended to be stupid instantly.

Qin Xin smiled and asked more directly: "Who do you want to push onto the throne of 【War】?"

Seeing that the smart person couldn't be fooled, Cheng Shi curled his lips and said:

"You."

"No one is more suitable for that position than you."

"This is not flattering you, nor is it winning your trust, this is telling the truth."

"Whether it is the raging fire that dares to challenge everything, or the warm fire remaining in the world, you are the best carrier."

"Some fires are born to burn on you."

As soon as the voice fell, Cheng Shi wanted to let Hong Lin try whether she could share her authority, but before Hong Lin could act, Qin Xin opposite lit a wisp of flame at his fingertips, flicked it out, and sent it to Cheng Shi.

In the gaze of the two who were puzzled, Qin Xin said with a smile:

"The matter of spreading fire has never been something one person can complete."

"I never hoped that you would agree to our invitation to join the Fire-Spreaders, but I saw the same unyielding spirit in you as us."

"This is the authority of 【War】, 'Unyielding'."

"I share it with you not to ask for any reward, nor to let you help the Fire-Spreaders, but to tell you:"

"You, Cheng Shi, have always been the same kind of person as us Fire-Spreaders."

While speaking, that wisp of firelight swayed and crashed into Cheng Shi's chest, crashing into his heart. Cheng Shi only felt a moment of dryness and heat, and then a touch of unyielding light appeared under his heart.

Acting on behalf of success, identity verified.

Qin Xin showed an expression of "as expected" and laughed loudly:

"It really is you."
