Chapter 1275: Brother Cheng is the answer to [Nothingness]?
Brother Cheng is the answer to 【Nothingness】?
Hu Wei was certain that Seeing Zhen Xin was not joking, because he had never seen this magician look so serious.
Seeing Zhen Xin casually drew a magic card to make Lady Frod fall into a deep sleep, then frowned and pondered for a long time before looking at Hu Wei with a solemn gaze:
"Grand Marshal... can I trust you?"
"?"
Seeing Zhen Xin is not Zhen Yi, but Brother Cheng?
Hu Wei was stunned for a moment, but he soon realized that this was all groundless speculation. The person in front of him was indeed Seeing Zhen Xin, and it was Seeing Zhen Xin with "all guns blazing."
He felt as if he were looking at a magician about to take the stage, full of momentum and high fighting spirit.
What had she discovered, and what did she want to do?
Hu Wei frowned slightly, not rushing to respond, but tentatively asking back: "Trust in what capacity?"
Seeing Zhen Xin said every word clearly and decisively: "As fellow humans, we advance and retreat together!"
"???"
Sometimes language is a magical art. The word "human" is mentioned all the time; after all, the Star Fall Continent has many races, and "human" is a common term used to distinguish between them. But once it is mentioned by a peak player in a situation where no other races are present, it can only point to one thing, and that is...
Distinguishing from the gods!
And the phrase "advance and retreat together" completely cuts off humans from the gods, tearing them apart into two different camps.
Hu Wei was shocked, but not afraid; on the contrary, his blood was boiling.
As a player who wanted to go further in the 【Faith Game】, the Grand Marshal did not reject any path that led to the distance, which was why he often used the guidance of Lord Ultraman as his sail, constantly moving forward and riding the waves.
And right now, he seemed to have encountered another opportunity presented by a player.
Seeing Zhen Xin, this magician who was always creating "news," actually wanted to cooperate with him from the perspective of a "human"?
Wouldn't that be going against Lord Ultraman's guidance?
In the past, Hu Wei would have found it hard to agree to such a request; after all, the sunk cost was too high. He had "points" in front of 【Chaos】, and it wouldn't be worth it to throw those "points" away.
But it just so happened that today, after learning that Seeing Zhen Xin had fused 【Chaos】 and 【Deception】 a step ahead of him and had already had an audience with the real 【Chaos】, he felt a moment of disillusionment with the so-called "pie" of the gods!
And it was this very moment that Seeing Zhen Xin seized to extend her invitation.
Hu Wei was not stupid; he knew that anything the magician treated so solemnly must be full of risks. But the question was, would a person who had been impersonating the "Grand Marshal" and wanted to continue doing so be afraid of risks?
No, not at all. Furthermore, he enjoyed the cheers amidst the risks; otherwise, he wouldn't have taken such unconventional paths in every trial, leaving a deep impression in everyone's hearts!
He was already seeking attention; this was just a different way of doing it.
So Hu Wei agreed, laughing wantonly as he accepted:
"What a great 'as fellow humans'!
I have never claimed to be a tough nut to crack; I just like standing on high ground to enjoy the scenery.
If I can be lucky enough to climb over this high mountain of gods that makes one crane their neck until it breaks... then what harm is there in giving it a try?
Hahaha, Seeing Zhen Xin, tell me, use your ambition to move me."
At this moment, Seeing Zhen Xin knew that her "self-exposure" today had bought her an opportunity, so she went a step further, first dropping a bombshell:
"【Chaos】 is actually 【Deception】!"
This was not her guess, but the "answer" Cheng Shi had told her.
When in Sandres, Cheng Shi had once told her a secret, saying: 【Order】 is actually 【Chaos】, so who do you guess 【Chaos】 is?
The answer to this question was obvious, and Seeing Zhen Xin guessed 【Deception】 immediately.
Although the Fate Weaver was a liar, he had never lied about such important information. Especially after he revealed the truth of the universe to the jesters at the Jester Assembly, she knew he had no need to lie to her anymore. At least on the stance of knowing the true identity of 【Chaos】, she was the only one who knew and could provide help to the Fate Weaver.
In this trial, she learned that the Grand Marshal had sought to fuse 【Deception】 but failed, and Seeing Zhen Xin immediately understood that the identity of 【Chaos】 was just a tool used by 【Deception】 for his layout. Therefore, the believers of 【Chaos】 were not true "direct descendants," which was why, even though the fusion of faith had been going on for so long, Hu Wei still hadn't received a response from 【Deception】.
The known secret was nothing strange to Seeing Zhen Xin, but it was a critical hit to the unsuspecting believers of 【Chaos】.
"?????"
Hu Wei was dumbfounded.
I asked you to move me, not to dig up my roots!
He felt he had been deceived; the person opposite was definitely Zhen Yi using someone else's account.
She had made this whole series of preparations just to see him make a fool of himself at this very moment.
The Grand Marshal's eyelids twitched wildly with rage, and he instantly drew his greatsword and struck at her head!
However, Seeing Zhen Xin did not move an inch, not even her solemn expression changed. The greatsword grazed her scalp, its blade turning as it passed, cutting off a few strands of hair before striking the ground with a thunderous boom. Hu Wei's heart also skipped a beat.
"Are you serious?"
Seeing Zhen Xin was extremely calm: "Naturally, it's true. This explains why I was the one to fuse 【Chaos】 first, rather than you fusing 【Deception】 first."
Hu Wei's hand gripping the hilt tightened suddenly.
If Seeing Zhen Xin was right, and 【Chaos】 was 【Deception】, then what were all the missions he had completed over these many days?
An excuse to get closer to 【Nothingness】 had driven him to be busy and bustling, only to find in the end that 【Nothingness】 was right behind him, or even at the starting point...
Wasn't this just playing with people?
But it could not be denied that 【Deception】 loved playing with people anyway.
Hu Wei's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He took two deep breaths, suppressed the restlessness and anger in his heart, and asked coldly: "Then Ultraman..."
Seeing Zhen Xin was not yet sure of Ultraman's identity. Cheng Shi had previously told her that Ultraman did not know about 【Chaos】 being replaced. She had not verified it and could only remain doubtful. But looking at it now, if Hu Wei's appearance in this trial was also due to the will of the God of Fun, then Ultraman's stance was definitely biased towards 【Deception】. So, did He really not know?
Seeing Zhen Xin shook her head. She could not throw out unclear information at this time to disturb the other party's judgment, so she truthfully said she didn't know, only that 【Chaos】 was not the real one.
Hu Wei's brows sank, and he asked again: "Then where did the real 【Chaos】 go?"
"These things can be discussed later. Today's matter has nothing to do with the real 【Chaos】, only with the current 【Chaos】!"
Hu Wei's eyes narrowed: "【Deception】!"
"Yes.
The will of the God of Fun is definitely not simple. To figure all this out, we must race against time. At least before the trial ends, we must have a result.
And before we figure it out, she..."
Seeing Zhen Xin pointed to Frod, who was sleeping on the ground, and said seriously, "Must not be discovered by Cheng Shi.
The Fate Weaver is a smart man. When he learns all this from Frod's mouth, with the information he possesses, he will surely see the implication of the trial just like me, or even directly guess the thoughts of the God of Fun.
His devotion to the God of Fun... is very subtle; he both believes and doubts.
I am afraid that when he knows the truth, he will completely break with the God of Fun, thereby bringing an unpredictable ending to this world.
I cannot accept a future without certainty.
So what we need to do now is to figure everything out before he discovers the implication of the God of Fun, and then try our best to come up with a way to save this world.
If we can't, then you, me, and humanity can only retreat together, and there will be no more advancing together..."
These words were extremely serious. Although Hu Wei, who was still kept in the dark, could not see the whole picture, he was not disbelieving; he just didn't expect that Seeing Zhen Xin, of all people, would stand from the perspective of "humanity" and oppose the gods for the sake of "advancing and retreating together."
This did not seem like the Seeing Zhen Xin he knew, who always looked out for herself.
Seeing Zhen Xin was extremely sharp. She saw Hu Wei's doubt and knew that among the limited teammates she could ask for help, she could not let Hu Wei remain suspicious. So she pursed her lips and stated her purpose.
"For my sake, Mingyu can rush forward without hesitation, so I cannot let Mingyu be hurt again.
The world has no meaning to me, but she does..."
With just this sentence, Hu Wei nodded affirmatively.
This reason made perfect sense. Everyone knew that Seeing Zhen Xin and An Mingyu were deeply attached to each other; for each other's sake, they would probably both risk their lives.
The title of Grand Marshal was never blown out of proportion, but earned through real effort.
When he confirmed that Seeing Zhen Xin's purpose was not faked, he frowned and pondered:
"It seems you have mastered news about the gods far beyond what I know. I cannot help you with information, let alone analyze the situation for you.
Opposing the gods will definitely not be purely about force. In that case, you are not asking for my help for these things, but for... 【Chaos】!
Who do you want me to confuse?
Brother Cheng?
But just confusing his hearing and sight won't bring you a so-called solution. In that case, you still need to find someone who can help you analyze the situation, or even someone who understands the situation better than you.
From what you said, Brother Cheng counts as one, but you want to hide it from him...
Brother Zhang advances and retreats with Brother Cheng, so I guess he's not a good candidate either.
The remaining two teammates haven't been met yet, but I imagine it won't be easy for those who hide their names to surpass you...
Thinking about it, probably only someone outside the trial would meet your requirements.
You want to go find him?
But this person has always been eccentric and independent. Do you think he will help you?"
Seeing Zhen Xin was not sure either, but she had no choice now.
"I have to try. Let's go now."
Hu Wei understood. He nodded, and before leaving, he asked one more time with extreme seriousness:
"Is it really impossible to let Brother Cheng know all this?"
Seeing Zhen Xin frowned, her tone complex:
"It is possible, but not now.
One person's strength alone cannot oppose the gods.
What we are doing now is not abandoning him and leaving him in danger alone, but creating a turning point for the ending and creating more room for him to choose.
One person cannot support a stage, which is why there is a distinction between protagonists and supporting roles.
In the curtain call performance, the jester cannot be the only one performing on stage; that would put too much pressure on him, and the performance would be too boring. Even if we are not the protagonists, we should strive for the roles that supporting actors deserve, shouldn't we?
He is writing his answer, and we should also write our own answer."
Hu Wei was stunned: "Brother Cheng is the answer to 【Nothingness】?"
Seeing Zhen Xin lowered her head and nodded silently: "Yes, from the moment he fused with 【Fate】, he was."
