Chapter 1310
Pass the fire! Pass the fire!
Who could have thought that the Fire of Hope would turn into a container after death?
No one, except the Fire of Hope.
When He learned of His identity as a subordinate god, He knew that He must possess a 【Fate】 container; however, He had never been able to take that thing out; at that time, He guessed that the container was very likely His own body.
Only when hope truly shatters will the change abandoned by 【Fate】 return to the right path of fate, be accepted by 【Fate】 again, and become a 【Fate】 container.
And this was also the last bit of help He could bring to Cheng Shi.
Facing that dilemma, the Fire of Hope gave His own answer; between Cheng Shi and the world, He chose Cheng Shi.
No, it should be said that what He chose was never a certain individual, but a fire seed that had been resisting fate from beginning to end and had been full of hope from start to finish!
Just like Him, even if abandoned by 【Fate】, He was still full of hope!
Cheng Shi looked at the 【Fate】 container floating in front of him, tears streaming down his face.
He understood the Candlelight Person's meaning; the other party wanted him to take this container and, with the identity of the Fixed, try to petition the 【Covenant】 to succeed to the authority of 【Fate】.
Compared to the fake 【Deception】, the 【Fate】 of this world was undoubtedly the god that recognized Cheng Shi the most.
But whether this recognition could be acknowledged by the 【Covenant】 and truly turn into the authority in Cheng Shi's hands... everything was still unknown.
But it was in this situation where the road ahead was unclear that the Fire of Hope resolutely chose to hand this last hope to Cheng Shi, which is enough to show that any life related to 【Fate】 likes to gamble, and right now, it was the last fight for life and death!
From the appearance of the Fire of Hope to the dissolution of the Fire of Hope, He never looked directly at the Outer God, ignored the 【Fate】 that did not belong to the current world, and the Outer God 【Fate】 was even more silent, silently watching everything the other party did, never interfering, and never commenting.
His cold eyes had no change, and the turning spiral did not stop because of this; His indifference was as usual, as if He were certain that everything they did was meaningless.
But even so, even if he couldn't see hope at all, Cheng Shi didn't want to let the Fire of Hope die in vain; he couldn't let everyone down again, especially couldn't let everyone's lives down again, so his eyes instantly became resolute, he grasped the 【Fate】 container in front of him with one hand, felt the rolling 【Fate】 aura on it that he had never felt before, and said that sentence to the void again.
Only this time, 【Deception】 was replaced by 【Fate】.
"I, walker of 【Nothingness】, Fixed of 【Fate】, Cheng Shi, request under the witness of 【Justice (Order)】, to succeed to the authority of the fallen god... 【Fate】!"
This was no longer a shout, nor was there any hysteria; Cheng Shi's tone was flat, as flat as if he had seen something he had dropped on the side of the road, and then bent down to pick it up, that was all.
At this, the Outer God 【Fate】's eyes grew colder.
He knew why 【Fate】 died, so He was naturally certain that the Fixed could not succeed to the authority of 【Fate】, not to mention that the 【Fate】 of this world also promoted the Fixed; even if He still had obsessions after death, those obsessions should be to guard the purity of the offering from being polluted, rather than using His own authority to keep the Fixed away from the Fixed!
"Don't make meaningless struggles; 【Fate】 is dead, He can no longer protect you."
"You were never the Messenger of 【Fate】; the Fire of Hope might have had hope of inheriting everything of 【Fate】, but He handed the hope to you..."
"Unfortunately, His hope shattered, just like His life."
"And you, my believer, recognize reality; stepping onto the path you should walk is the thing that best lives up to them."
"Otherwise, the curtain of the era will only become more vivid, and you will only be able to chew on this pain alone on the path of the Fixed."
Saying this, those cold eyes looked at An Mingyu beside Cheng Shi; obviously, this prophet who had been abandoned by 【Fate】 again and again was about to usher in the end of the prophecy.
Cheng Shi was angry; he gripped the container tightly and said word by word: "【Justice (Order)】 has not arrived; whether I can succeed to the authority, it's not up to you to say!"
"It might not be up to me to say, but is it up to Him to say?"
"Personally breaking the rules of the 【Covenant】, convening a farce-like Covenant Assembly of Gods with a high-sounding excuse; do you really think that because He is the framework of the 【Covenant】 He can ignore the 【Covenant】 and cause Justice to lose balance?"
"He can't come anymore, and it's even unknown how long He will live!"
As soon as the words fell, the void changed!
"!!!"
Amidst the dullness of the giant skull, in the astonishment of the cold eyes, and under the ecstatic expectation of Cheng Shi, a balance constructed of starlight and flowing light suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.
The sound of 【Order】 resounded through the universe again, and the colors of the stars also painted the void brilliantly.
【Justice (Order)】 had arrived; He had come as agreed with the authority of a god!
The spiral in the Outer God 【Fate】's eyes flew and turned; He did not understand why 【Justice (Order)】 would descend here; even if Cheng Shi was the Fixed, even if the original 【Fate】 favored Cheng Shi for no reason, Cheng Shi was simply not a Messenger, he had no right to inherit the authority!
The Outer God 【Fate】 could only understand it as 【Justice (Order)】 not hesitating to deviate from the rules of the 【Covenant】 for the sake of the last bit of face of the universe, for the sake of revenge on Himself for instigating 【Chaos】 to become 【Order】, and desperately wanting to force the authority onto the head of the Fixed.
He absolutely could not accept this lose-lose situation of polluting the offering, so for a time, the void boiled and storms raged.
The cold wind from the deep void almost froze everything before everyone's eyes, and the dim seven-colored flowing light even forcibly bent the scale beam of that brilliant balance, locking it tightly in the pitch-blackness of the void.
However, even so, 【Justice (Order)】 still issued the 【Order】 sound that made the stars keep order.
"I have come to bring the authority of the True God to the successor."
"This act conforms to the rules, is protected by the 【Covenant】, and the gods must not disobey!"
The cold wind of the void grew stronger, and the Outer God 【Fate】 said coldly:
"Rules?"
"Which rule has ever acknowledged that the Fixed is the Messenger of 【Fate】?"
"【Iron Law of Order】 is 【Chaos】; are you also 【Chaos】!?"
"【Justice (Order)】, what are you struggling for?"
"The moment you deviated from the 【Covenant】 and acted arbitrarily, the 【Covenant】 would kill you; after that, the 【Covenant】 will dissolve itself, and there will be no rules in the universe to limit me; by then, the Fixed will still be the Fixed, and you..."
"Probably won't live to the moment the era ends."
"Do you still insist on putting a hat of authority on the Fixed that will be swallowed by nothingness at any time?"
The flowing light balance was gradually wrapped in pitch-blackness, but the 【Order】 sound still penetrated the void and spread throughout the universe:
"I have brought authority for the successor, but I have never said that what I brought was the authority of 【Fate】!"
"What!?"
Not only the Outer God 【Fate】, but even Cheng Shi was stunned.
The 【Order】 sound resounded through the void:
"What I have brought is the final edict of 【War】; He left His authority to a... mortal."
"The 【Covenant】 has never restricted the gifting of authority, and the final edict is even more un-disobeyable; 【War】 did not succeed long ago, but left a final edict before death; I have come according to the edict, and do not violate the rules!"
"!!!"
At this moment, the void changed color, and Cheng Shi lost his voice.
Qin Xin!
This fire-passer, even though he had already died, still left hope for Cheng Shi!
He knew that once he left the authority to Cheng Shi, it would be equivalent to sentencing the entire world to death; the universe would have no more answers if it lost the Fixed, and this world could only head toward destruction in this grand Creator experiment, but he still did it, defending his will and belief to protect beauty with his last drop of blood.
"The fire-passer will never exchange a 'old' world at the cost of abandoning friends and beauty; he wouldn't before, he wouldn't now, and he won't in the future."
He said it, so he did it.
At this moment, the flames of 【War】 had clearly long since extinguished, but they roared again before the world!
Pass the fire, pass the fire!
Who could have thought that the fire Qin Xin passed was actually the fire of 【War】!
All this came too suddenly, so much so that Cheng Shi was deeply shocked and appeared momentarily lost, and it was at this time that the void filled with thick 【Fate】 power suddenly became dry.
The friction of the cold wind brought out wisps of sparks, which appeared suddenly and rolled toward Cheng Shi with the wind.
Cheng Shi only felt as if his blood had been called by something, boiling in an instant, and then his hair, temples, and eyebrows were all ignited, turning into flames facing the wind, erupting with the last glimmer of scorching white in this world!
How to seek survival, only blood and fire!
At this very moment, under the witness of 【Justice (Order)】 and in the silence of the Outer God 【Fate】, faith was finally polluted, and the Fixed was broken as wished!
Cheng Shi looked at the red flames surging all over his body, his gaze condensed, and in an instant he covered the 【Fate】 container in his hand with blood fire, and threw it straight toward the direction of those cold eyes.
"Now, you can kill me, bitch!"
