Chapter 1350

Acquaintances in the Fire-Keeping Hall

Whether it is Long Wang or Qin Xin, letting them ascend to the divine throne is actually very simple, because they have obtained the recognition of the gods and meet the rules in the 【Convention】 for Messengers to inherit the divine throne.

One only needs to request an audience with 【Justice (Order)】 at the appropriate time and ask it to legitimize the divine power.

What is difficult are mortals like Nangong in the God-Making Project who are currently carrying a container and want to obtain the right of inheritance... Her and Li Wufang's ascent might only have a chance after Cheng Shi holds enough voting power.

But it's coming soon; the voting power Cheng Shi can mobilize is about to exceed one-half of the number of gods.

【Death】, 【Silence】, and 【Time】 were already the voting base of the Fear Sect, and now with the addition of 【Chaos】, 【Memory】, and 【War】, even if 【Void】 does not appear, Cheng Shi already holds six votes.

The 【Prosperity】 voting power is with 【Fate】, and the 【Truth】 voting power is with 【Deception】; these two votes might not be coveted for a while, but among the remaining few, there is still no lack of opportunity.

Although 【Birth】 is just participating, with the Eternal Day as a connection, it might be possible to win a vote at a critical moment; 【Decay】 is still there, and based on past sentiments, without affecting its self-decay, it might also be possible to get a vote;

【Annihilation】 is a pity; a perfectly good vote has become shelved;

As for 【Dementia】...

Forget it.

Brother Mouth curses 【Dementia】 so much, wanting to let 【Dementia】 admit to foolish acts and join the Foolish Acts is a bit too whimsical; let's think of another way for the remaining vote.

Cheng Shi sighed helplessly, still muttering "Dementia, Dementia..." under his breath; although the voice was very small, it was still heard clearly by Qin Xin.

His brows tightened, and he looked at Cheng Shi solemnly:

"What's wrong with 【Dementia】?"

Cheng Shi originally wanted to say "nothing, just thinking randomly," but seeing Qin Xin's serious appearance, he was immediately stunned and asked back:

"What's wrong with 【Dementia】?"

He could see that Qin Xin also seemed to have encountered a problem related to 【Dementia】.

When the showdown reached this point, everyone was already working together; Qin Xin naturally couldn't use any Fire-Keeper secrets to fob Cheng Shi off, so he told him about his 【Dementia】 problem.

"【Dementia】 is fine, but its believer has come."

"?"

Cheng Shi thought of Sun Miao at the first moment; speaking of which, this Eye of Deconstruction was an "undercover agent" he "planted" in the Fire-Keepers. Thinking of this, Cheng Shi's face became a bit strange, saying, "Isn't it normal for him to come? What's the problem?"

"Normal?" Qin Xin shook his head and sighed, "I can't think of what's normal about it; there are too many problems. Not to mention how he came here, the most fatal thing is, how should I make him keep the existence of the Fire-Keepers a secret?"

"???"

Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that this 【Dementia】 believer in Qin Xin's mouth could definitely not be Sun Miao; he should be...

"Wei Mu!?"

Qin Xin was stunned: "Otherwise, who do you think would make people have such a headache? Jieshu?"

"..."

To be fair, that guy Jieshu is also quite a headache.

Upon hearing that Wei Mu had come to the Fire-Keeping Hall on his own, Cheng Shi was a bit shocked: "He is here right now?"

"Yes, as luck would have it, not long before you came, he came uninvited and visited this place.

If I hadn't reacted fast enough, this little wooden puppet would have bumped right into the Hope Fire.

Fortunately, he didn't anticipate that my strength could trap him, otherwise, perhaps we wouldn't have our meeting now."

"You caught him?"

"I only temporarily restricted his freedom; I can see that he probably doesn't want to leave in a hurry either, so let's wait until we are done later..."

"No need to wait later!"

Before Qin Xin could finish, Cheng Shi patted Qin Xin on the shoulder and said happily, "It just so happens I want to find him too; I would like to ask this top-ranked person on the path to godhood what he thinks about the curtain call of this 【Void】 era.

Let's go, take me to see him."

Qin Xin choked; he looked at Cheng Shi, looked at the Hope Fire, and suddenly smiled with relief, joking: "It seems the future of the world has indeed lost its direction."

Cheng Shi heard this and shook his head repeatedly:

"No, the direction of the future is under our feet; the path we walk out is the future of the world.

It's just that before taking the first step, we must be cautious and more cautious.

The universe will not give us another chance to start over.

Just like the Fire-Keepers, every external force that can be borrowed cannot be let go; only in this way can we find a path to the light in absolute darkness."

As soon as the words fell, the candle-fire person hung upside down on Cheng Shi's shoulder, pressed against his face, and said faintly:

"Strange, why do I feel that today, the Fire-Keeping aura on you is thicker than anyone else's, and you look more like the leader of the Fire-Keepers?

Aren't you unwilling to get close to the Fire-Keepers? Was it the unyielding spirit of the Fire-Keepers in the fake curtain call that infected you?

Then are you still Cheng Shi?

Shouldn't I call you... Qin Shi?"

To think I trusted Him so much; how could He treat Me this way!"

"..."

Qin Xin was stunned for a moment and then laughed out loud, while Cheng Shi rolled his eyes in disgust and pushed Qin Xin forward.

He did not deny the Hope Fire's statement, but thought silently in his heart:

When I face despair, even if I can't see hope, I will hope that a spark of fire can bloom in other places where darkness descends.

This is the truth that the fake curtain call of the era taught me, and it is also the continuation of your and my unyielding will in the real universe.

The three "gods" soon arrived at the place where Wei Mu was "detained." Looking at the little wooden puppet restricted in Qin Xin's room, Cheng Shi knew that this was just a means Wei Mu used to scout the path; Wei Mu's true body was not here at all, and Qin Xin didn't intend to truly imprison the other party.

The highest martial power and the highest intelligence met and gave each other some face.

After all, no one could guarantee what the consequences would be if Wei Mu were angered, even if Qin Xin had already inherited the authority of 【War】, but 【War】 is not 【Dementia】...

It is too difficult to beat Wei Mu in terms of brains.

This game is not just about brute force, otherwise 【War】 wouldn't be called 【War】, but should be called 【Origin】.

The little wooden puppet was also slightly stunned when he saw the three appear. Soon, he jumped onto the tabletop, bowed to the three, and said:

"A humble mortal body, a fool watching the world, a curtain-opener, Wei Mu, pays respects to the three... Messenger lords."

These words sounded familiar.

The last time he heard Wei Mu introduce himself so seriously was at the God-Nurturing Church of Doer-Gede, only why did the curtain-manager become the curtain-opener... What exactly did this wise man of 【Dementia】 know?

Cheng Shi was very curious, but before asking his own questions, he felt he needed to slightly suppress the other party's momentum.

To be able to have such confidence while facing three Messengers as a mortal, wouldn't the rhythm of the subsequent exchange all be held in Wei Mu's hands?

So Cheng Shi hummed and laughed, saying: "How do you confirm that the ones before you are three Messengers?"

Wei Mu pondered slightly and answered fluently:

"Your identity needs no further words; I indeed did not anticipate the identity of the successor to 【War】, but based on my understanding of 【War】, hiding and not releasing should be appreciated by it.

As for this one..."

Wei Mu looked at the Hope Fire and analyzed, "【War】 is not achieved overnight; before this, there must always be some god to protect this place, and a life that can walk side by side with the two to arrive here... I think it should be the guardian of this place."

The puppet turned his head, looked at the candle-fire person hanging upside down, and asked curiously, "I felt the mysterious and profound Void power on you; this is different from any god currently in office, so you should be the Messenger of 【Fate】?

A 'rebel' who chose a path completely different from the current 【Fate】?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The three gods looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

How to play this?

He plays openly, how do you play?

Cheng Shi was speechless, but he still found a loophole in Wei Mu's answer.

"You are wrong, the one protecting the Fire-Keepers is not the Hope Fire, but the God of Fun!"

"【Deception】!?"

Wei Mu was startled, then nodded thoughtfully: "It should be so; so it really is dragging 【Fate】 onto a path deviating from 【Fate】..."

"..."

You can never defeat a diligent and eager-to-learn wise man.

Or rather, you can never defeat a cheater who has no flaws.

Cheng Shi's words not only failed to suppress Wei Mu but even let him "calculate" more.

Looking at the puppet lost in thought, Cheng Shi gave up.

Don't try to provoke authority in a field you are not good at; instead of blindly refuting, it's better to join early.

So Cheng Shi cleared his throat and asked sincerely:

"Wise man, do you sell cheats?"
