Chapter 1389: My lord, I want to conduct an experiment!

~7 min read 1,235 words

My lord, I want to conduct an experiment!

Probably not.

【Deception】 once had Big Cat bring him a message, hinting that 【Foolishness】's authority was very likely in the hands of 【Memory】.

And 【Memory】 had now left. Long Wang took over 【Memory】's collection but didn't mention any abnormalities to him, which meant 【Foolishness】's authority was either taken away by 【Memory】 or hidden in a place Long Wang couldn't touch.

【Memory】 left under 【Time】's nose. 【Time】 was dedicated to saving the world and couldn't possibly let Him take away authority related to the world, so the answer could only be the latter.

And as for the place of 【Memory】 that Long Wang couldn't control, Cheng Shi thought and thought, and he only knew of one:

The smeared collection item in 【Memory】's collection!

Well, going around in circles, he was back to finding the nose.

But the problem was, Cheng Shi had always thought the Nose of Discernment was in Laughter and Mockery. Now, with 【Deception】 "pulling up the ladder," Laughter and Mockery had already dried up. So where could he find this nose that even Brother Mouth and the others couldn't remember clearly?

Also, if Wei Mu's conjecture was correct, then behind that collection item should actually be a memory concerning the gods. Could this memory be the key to leading him to 【Foolishness】's authority?

【Deception】 couldn't have guessed wrong, could He?

Regarding this, Cheng Shi had no clue.

The man and the god remained silent for a long time. Finally, the giant skull broke the silence and buzzed:

"Next, what, do you, plan, to do?"

After losing their "backbone," the 【Death】 boss was clearly somewhat lost. A god should never seek guidance from a mortal, yet Cheng Shi was the established one, the person who knew the most secrets in this world besides a few informed individuals. He maintained the future of the world, so his every move was watched by the Fear Sect.

But 【Death】 asking this question wasn't truly asking for advice; He just wanted to confirm that the established fate's subsequent actions were still within a controllable range. As long as the established fate was kept safe, dragging it out until 【Deception】 returned from the real universe, the answer to the world would naturally be revealed.

Cheng Shi indeed had many thoughts now.

At first, he only had a vague idea, feeling that he, with no path forward, needed some new "guidance." But now, after learning more truth from 【Deception】's mouth, he felt his plan had to be accelerated.

The Universe needed time, and this plan could bring him more time for trial and error.

"I might still need to confirm some things, but before that, there's a matter that should have a result."

To put 【Death】 at ease, Cheng Shi stated the plan for the solution, saying:

"The solution was 'smuggled' from the real universe, and he holds the method for entering and exiting the world.

Eh eh eh, don't be anxious, my lord. I'm not going to the real universe to take risks, but some things must be done, and some people must go out.

My experience tells me that for a world to find an answer, there is definitely more than one world working hard behind it. I have received the grace of other worlds, and now it is time to repay that debt.

I will use my way to pass the fire to other worlds, passing the torch Cheng Dashi gave me to the hands of other Cheng Shis.

My lord, do you know about the Fire-Passers?"

Green flames flashed in the giant skull's eye sockets, but there was no response.

Cheng Shi nodded to himself and said:

"So you know. Although the Fire-Passers are resisting the gods, they definitely aren't resisting the gods of the Fear Sect.

Wei Mu described a very terrifying future to me. In that future, the gods...

I don't want that future to become the true future of this starry sky, so I want to try again to see if I can find another path.

Even if I can't, at least I can tell other worlds about the correct path now.

After passing on the firelight from Cheng Dashi, I will conduct an experiment, an experiment to see into the future!"

When he heard the words "experiment," a strange look flashed in the giant skull's eye sockets.

"The era is nearing its end, and we lack time.

However, the magic of experiments can bring us more time, allowing us more opportunities to deduce.

I have already prepared the experimental materials; now I only lack an opportunity to start.

Before starting, I might need to obtain the approval of all the gods, because only in this way can I use the power, authority, and will of the gods to see into the future!"

【Death】 perhaps guessed something. He looked at Cheng Shi, didn't comment on the experiment, but sighed gloomily:

"Death, is, the end, of everything.

Within the Universe, there is no, living being, that can, avoid, death, including... Me."

"But..." Cheng Shi furrowed his eye sockets, his bone color changing.

The giant skull shook His head, interrupting him.

"But, death, is never, the end, but, the beginning, of a living soul's, reincarnation, and rebirth."

It, is not just, the end, but also, the starting point.

I, never, agree, with the will of 【Annihilation】, and do not promote, absolute, disappearance.

But, regarding, rebirth, I, and He, also, have the same feeling.

【Life】, reincarnation, does not stop, living beings, cycle, endlessly.

This is, the true meaning, of the world.

I, and, the gods, are the same, not that we cannot die, but just, unwilling, to submit, beneath 【Origin】, becoming, neither dead, nor alive, neither god, nor me...

Perhaps, 【Time】, has already, pointed it out, to you.

At, the appropriate, time, He will, leave, and I... will also, leave.

If, I can use, the death, of the old world, to prove, My, heart of resistance, and clarify, My, intention of fear, then, I, will be, the biggest, winner, of this Universe.

You, do not need, to feel, regret, for this.

This is, 【Death】!

It is, My, god-name;

And, also, My, fate."

"!!!"

Even though he was still a skull, a flash of shock and emotion passed through Cheng Shi's eye sockets.

This is what a god is... for the will of their faith, they don't fear death at all.

【Prosperity】, 【Truth】, 【War】, 【Annihilation】... the actions of the gods were vivid before his eyes; every one of them used their lives to expound the firmness of their own will.

Even 【Death】 and 【Time】 were like this.

But I... don't want you to die!

I don't want any "living being" seeking a way of life for the world to fall before the dawn!

If that dawn truly exists...

Cheng Shi remained silent. After a long time, he lowered his eyes and said gloomily:

"You have your will, and I have my plans. What if my path can work?

Please believe in me, this time it is absolutely not a deception, and please support me, my lord, I very much need the vote in your hands."

The giant skull looked at the unyielding little skull at His feet, a flash of gratified laughter in His eyes.

"Cheng, Shi.

You, go, and do it.

Behind you, there is, Me.

Before, 【Deception】, returns, the sky... will not collapse." ===== CHAPTER 1390 =====
