Do you think your foolish act has an answer?

The boss is much more reliable than any benefactor.

When Cheng Shi left the Fish Bone Hall, it was very much like his mood when he first received the SSS-rank divine relic from the god, the Bone Servant Lele'er Ring. He was excited and invigorated.

This, of course, wasn't because of 【Death】's domineering promise—anyone can say anything; it mainly depends on doing.

Especially for a master like the Greed Lord who doesn't see a rabbit and doesn't release an eagle, no matter how flowery your words are, it's not as good as giving some actual benefits.

And this time, what allowed Cheng Shi to regain the happiness from a long time ago was naturally because the benefits given by 【Death】 far exceeded his imagination!

Cheng Shi himself had forgotten that the Bone Servant Atoner's Descendant Ring in his hand actually contained half of the 【Thunder】 divinity, which had been stripped from the Moment of Execution.

And at that time, 【Death】 had said that the other half of 【Thunder】's divinity was also with Him, but he was too weak and not yet qualified to receive it. When he walked further, He would bestow the other half upon him.

At that time, Cheng Shi was having his first audience with 【Death】. How would he know that the boss's words were as good as gold? He thought this was a common tactic for gods to draw big cakes, so he begged the boss to forge him a divine relic ring.

But today, just now, 【Death】 fulfilled His promise. He believed Cheng Shi had reached the position He had hoped for and had walked far enough!

And the way this promise was fulfilled shocked Cheng Shi greatly.

Because 【Death】 once again used that "rough" but "practical" method of creation, stripping away other divine impurities from the ring, fusing the entire 【Thunder】 divinity, and using endless 【Death】 power to forge that divinity into something Cheng Shi couldn't even imagine:

A container!

That's right, a container for 【Order】!

It's hard to say whether 【Death】 had hidden a container for 【Order】 all along. After all, Cheng Shi couldn't understand the gods' forging methods at all. He only saw strands of 【Order】 divinity shining with holy light being hammered into a ball, and then from that endless light fell a container for 【Order】 that looked exactly like two holy light hammers connected upside down.

It "fell," it didn't "change."

He saw with his own eyes that the 【Thunder】 divinity was still there, but the container just appeared like that.

Every time a little bit of faith dripped into the container, the pitch-blackness in the entire void seemed to become orderly along with it.

Cheng Shi was stunned. He never expected that the "throne" he had sought in vain from 【Wrath of Abomination】 would be pushed before his eyes by 【Death】.

At the moment he received the container, Cheng Shi actively "forgot" the boss's "clumsy means" of taking back the 【Thunder】 divinity.

Let's just assume it was forged.

It's not easy for an old man to act.

One didn't make a sound, one didn't see, and the scene was exceptionally harmonious.

But the "old man" ultimately wanted face. After a moment, the giant skull buzzed and explained:

"This is, the container, of 【Thunder】.

Back then, it, was executed, by the hands of 【Order】, I, obtained, half, of its, divinity, and picked up, its, container..."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi raised his brows. Was it really picked up?

My lord, this "pick up" of yours, could it be that, like me, you picked it up from someone else's hands?

Tsk, no wonder you can play with the Fear Sect; in some aspects, you really are quite similar.

【Death】 seemed to see what Cheng Shi was thinking, but He didn't blame him, instead sighing gloomily:

"Now, since you, need, a vote, then use this, to take back, that vote, of 【Order】."

Cheng Shi naturally wouldn't refuse, nor did he have any reason to refuse. Even to express his gratitude, at the end of the era where every second counted, he still spared no time to praise the boss for thousands of words, and then was thrown directly out of the Fish Bone Hall by 【Death】 with a dark face.

Looking at the 【Order】 container in his hand, Cheng Shi sighed infinitely.

Good news: confidence +1.

Bad news: the confidence that just arrived fell into the bottomless heart, still no bottom.

Besides this, there was another piece of news that was neither good nor bad: Lele'er, this poor daughter of 【Prosperity】... had ultimately been completely annihilated in this era.

The Bone Servant Atoner's Descendant Ring was shattered, and Cheng Shi had forever lost his Thunder Punishment.

Touching the 【Time of Eternal Imprisonment】 ring remaining on his finger, Cheng Shi's gaze was firm, and he immediately began a new round of summoning.

It was time to keep the appointment with the solution.

No matter when, passing the fire cannot stop.

The world is not one person's world, and there will never be only one protagonist on the stage.

Just as 【Deception】 escaped the world to head to the real universe, and Cheng Shi was busy having an audience with 【Death】, in another part of the void, several audiences were also being staged.

In the depths of the endless void, a pair of divine eyes coated in chaotic white miasma looked down at the questioner before Him, saying nothing.

The floating little wooden puppet didn't stop questioning because of his benefactor's silence. He repeated for the umpteenth time:

"Do you admit that everything you just did was a foolish act?

Since you saw through 【Deception】's foolish act, why did you confuse the public and point out that Envoy Envoy Yu Xi was 【Deception】?

Knowing foolishness and committing foolishness is a great sin of blasphemy. As the god of 【Foolishness】 who is considered wise in the eyes of believers, why did you spare no effort to commit foolishness yourself, just to make Envoy Envoy Yu Xi believe all this?

Can I understand this as you approving of 【Deception】's foolish act, and because of this, having an uncalled-for hope for a world that originally had no future?"

"......"

【Foolishness】 said nothing, but didn't leave either.

The little wooden puppet rested for a moment and continued:

"I only thought that at the end of the 【Chaos】 era, 【Foolishness】 would move toward 【Silence】.

I didn't expect that at the end of the 【Nothingness】 era, 【Foolishness】 would still move toward 【Silence】.

Since you are unwilling to discuss this matter, let's change the topic.

I met Jialiusa, that madwoman who left a name through the ages in the long river of history of the Continent of Hope, who worshipped you the most, was most like you, and once had the most hope of becoming your messenger.

Her identity now is a player. Ironically, she has become the way she was in her childhood, and has become a believer of 【Truth】 again.

And what's interesting is, why would a living being who should have been annihilated in the past appear at the end of the era?

At first I didn't care, because there are many people like her. Most of them are just for 'survival' and have no influence on the progress of the era.

Until I learned that she was brought out of history by the established fate... there are never useless people hanging on the spider web.

No matter who is pushing all this, it shows that the game between you and Him has had a result. 【Deception】 guessed something, so He left a backup plan.

And coincidentally, the established fate recently asked me a question again. Guess what he asked?"

"......"

"You must have guessed it. The gods of the 【Nothingness】 camp are all prepared for this. I think you are prepared too, right?

The future of this starry sky cannot accommodate any old god, so the established fate pointed at me and said that I should be the 【Foolishness】 of the future.

So I want to ask you:

Great 【Foolishness】, when are you prepared to die?"

"......"

"Look, even if I scold the god to his face, or even force him to death myself, you are still tolerant enough of me.

Except for 【Fate】 toward the established fate, I can't think of any other god who could do this.

Would 【Foolishness】?

No, based on my understanding of Him, He shouldn't be like this.

But He is clearly the wisest sage in this Universe. Even if He committed a foolish act, there should be a deep meaning. So I thought about it carefully, and then I came to an answer that I shouldn't know and can't quite accept.

Today's audience is destined not to be pleasant, so I will just ask directly:

Benefactor, do you still need your authority?"

As he spoke, the little wooden puppet took a step forward.

Those eyes of white miasma ignored the believer before Him, looking into the direction outside the world with deep eyes. After a long time, He suddenly let out a sneer:

"A new era is about to begin, and your foolish act is also about to arrive.

Do you think your foolish act will have an answer?"

The little wooden puppet pondered for a long time and nodded:

"I understand.

This is your answer." ===== CHAPTER 1391 =====
