Chapter 1231: Clown

Clown

Cheng Shi fell into a thinking trap.

He instinctively thought that both swindlers from the real universe were acting, so he never thought they could be one person.

And now he did an experiment that couldn't even be called an experiment. He just let the shadow Cheng Shi use the chaotic acting method to turn into Hong Lin after the main body switched back to 【Fate】. In this way, he alone completed the double "acting" of himself and Hong Lin, and it was flawless.

Because the Cheng Shi that Hong Lin saw was Cheng Shi himself, and Cheng Shi himself knew how to act as the Hong Lin in Cheng Shi's heart...

This method was simply impeccable. Superimposed on the unknown and complexity of the real universe, even Cheng Shi didn't react at the first time.

Fortunately, Qin Xin and they had a battle, which tested the other party's depth.

A druid played by a clown could hold on for a period of time under Qin Xin, which was enough to make Cheng Shi feel amazed, but a clown was a clown after all. The frontal combat strength was far from reaching the level of a druid, and it was precisely this flaw that allowed Cheng Shi to deduce the identity of those two swindlers.

It's just that there was one more point Cheng Shi didn't figure out.

What was the other party after?

They couldn't not know that as long as they fought with Qin Xin, they would definitely leave traces and expose their identities, but they still did it, and even took the initiative to provoke.

According to Qin Xin, even when Qin Xin was ready to stop halfway, the other party was still unrelenting. What was the significance of this near "self-explosion" choice?

They wouldn't really want to defeat Qin Xin head-on, would they?

Before, it wasn't impossible, but at this time, Qin Xin possessed the 【War】 authority, how could they...

Wait!

Cheng Shi suddenly widened his eyes and confirmed with Qin Xin again:

"You inherited the 【War】 authority, was it before they refused to stop, or after they insisted on fighting?"

Qin Xin was stunned and recalled seriously: "After they continued to attack, Hong Lin's attack never stopped, she even..."

Halfway through, Qin Xin's eyes suddenly became strange. He couldn't say the dirty words in the mouth of the previous Hong Lin in front of this Hong Lin, so he deliberately paused, letting the two in front understand for themselves.

Cheng Shi knew too well what kind of thing some clowns were. His eyelids jumped, and he said faintly: "... also cursed? Did she say some hopeful words of an orphan longing for family care?"

"?"

Could dirty words be said so euphemistically!?

Qin Xin's expression froze on his face, and the words in his throat were also choked back.

Looking at his reaction, Cheng Shi was more certain that those two swindlers were "himself"!

Himself from another world!

Even if Hong Lin was anxious, she probably wouldn't say such things, but he might not. If he was anxious, he could probably say any dirty words.

Especially after finding the Eye of Mockery, Cheng Shi felt that his temper had also been led astray. If he didn't curse a few times occasionally, he wouldn't feel comfortable all over.

Hearing this, Cheng Shi also guessed the purpose of another himself.

This clown wandering in the real universe was obviously not here to make trouble; he was clearly here to help!

The other party must have known that a war must be used to summon the 【War】 authority, so he fought with Qin Xin for a seemingly reasonable reason.

Otherwise, from the perspective of a swindler, any behavior that had a probability of exposing his identity should be avoided. He didn't hesitate to expose his identity to attack Qin Xin, and the only explanation was to achieve the purpose of finding the authority.

Of course, that clown might not be entirely out of kindness. He was very likely looking for the 【War】 authority belonging to their world in this way, but just happened to run into Qin Xin.

It was not hard to see that initially they cheated himself and Hong Lin, also aiming at a final fight. And compared to himself and Hong Lin, Qin Xin, as a believer of 【War】, could obviously resonate more with the residual will of 【War】. So after encountering a better choice, they gave up cheating himself and changed to cheating Qin Xin.

As for why they left a mess of self-proving identity for him after the fight...

It was probably the clown's bad taste.

After all, clowns and clowns were in a "competitive" relationship. When peers meet, they are especially jealous, which was reasonable.

Cheng Shi thought silently and deduced the cause and effect of the whole thing, but all this was still his guess. To verify it, perhaps he must find him again.

But would a swindler whose identity was exposed still stay in place and wait for others to find trouble?

No, they had long since slipped away.

On the other side.

In the vast and lonely real universe, a huge corpse of a boundary-leaking silent puppet floated slowly.

Under the shadow of the corpse, two figures looked up, their eyes inexplicable.

The cheerful figure observed for a long time and said with great emotion:

"Tsk, that kid probably really went up. Otherwise, with his greed, he wouldn't easily leave here."

"Since he can go up, why can't we?"

The cold figure snorted coldly and poured cold water on him: "He has the protection of the Benefactor, so he is naturally safe. Do you have it?"

The cheerful figure curled his lips: "It sounds as if no one has it. Does having it once count as not having it?"

"It doesn't count. The past can be the present, but the premise is that 【Time】 is alive."

"Unfortunately, He has been dead for many years."

"They... have been dead for many years."

This sentence made the smile on the cheerful figure's face freeze, and his tone also became sighing.

"Can you not say these depressing words when I am motivated? It's really a mood killer."

"I said Cheng Fate, without Them, aren't we living just as well?"

The cold figure, no, 【Fate】 Cheng Shi shook his head without joy or sorrow:

"Don't swap concepts. Their sacrifice is worth remembering. It is precisely because of their death that we can live to this day in a distorted state."

"But this road is still a dead end, not a general solution for the world, and the answer of the universe is not here with us."

As he spoke, 【Fate】 Cheng Shi smiled rarely. He looked in the direction of Cheng Shi and smiled with relief:

"Fortunately, we finally succeeded once, which is worthy of the entrustment given to us by old Cheng Shi."

【Fraud】 Cheng Shi also looked in that direction, touching his chin and thinking:

"Although it is quite fulfilling to win against old Cheng Shi, how do you know that when he found us at that time, he didn't lie?"

"If, I mean if, he succeeded many times, but just lied to us that he didn't succeed even once, wouldn't we still have lost?"

【Fate】 Cheng Shi glanced at the neighbor and said coldly: "When a person is about to die, his words are true."

"The old saying is right, but whether he is a 'person' remains to be discussed. Just like us, aren't we also not 'people'?"

"If I die, I have to leave a monstrous lie before I die, so that the successor will live in suspicion every day."

"Tsk, thinking of this, I really want to die."

"..."

【Fate】 Cheng Shi was silent. Obviously, he agreed with 【Fraud】 Cheng Shi's statement. As for which sentence he agreed with...

After a while, he spoke again:

"Not yet, at least not now. If we die, there will be no guide in the real universe, and hope will not be able to be passed on."

"So bear with it. Bear with it until we find the next successor, and we will be liberated."

Hearing this, 【Fraud】 Cheng Shi spread his hands and sighed again:

"Fine. But I am still a little curious, you say when he guesses it's us, will it be gratitude and surprise, or gnashing of teeth?"

"This kid is smarter than the previous ones. It can be seen that his Benefactor raised him well."

"Eh? He couldn't guess what we are doing, could he?"

【Fate】 Cheng Shi shook his head, his voice still cold.

"The lucky can hardly see the misfortune of others."

"This misfortune belongs to us, but being able to witness a little luck with a body of misfortune... I think it is also the luck that belongs to us."

"Cheng Fraud, do you regret it?"

"Regret what?"

"Taking over this job from old Cheng Shi's hands."

【Fraud】 Cheng Shi curled his lips, looked into the distance, and said indifferently:

"Someone has to do it... dirty work and tiring work, isn't it for the unlucky ones to do?"

"I took the bad luck for them, so they probably won't be as miserable as us."

"Sigh, why say these things? Let's go. Before we die, we must give an account to old Cheng Shi, old-old Cheng Shi, and old-old-old Cheng Shis, and see when the next unlucky guy will come."

"At that time, I will cheat him a big one!"

"..."

"You smiled!"

"You also agree with my plan, right!"

"I knew it, your coldness is all fake."

"Then you say will we meet the next unlucky guy first, or meet another flower bud?"

"Hmm, flower bud is better, so we can have fun for a while."

"This broken real universe is really too big, and too boring..." ===== CHAPTER 1232 =====
