Chapter 1475: Character Side Story: Long Jing · The Disappearing Mask

Character Side Story: Long Jing · The Disappearing Mask

Speaking of which, that was a 【Fate】 trial.

It wasn't until later that Long Jing realized that the thing he wanted seemed to be related to the greatest secret of the universe that he realized what fate was.

But that was all a later story. At that time, Long Jing faced that thing, and was far from as composed and calm as he was later.

The topic of the 【Fate】 trial was "Who will be buried in the past." According to the will of this second god of 【Void】, the players in the trial had to experience the choice of fate.

The background of the trial was when the Grand Court of Judgment began to spread the will of 【Order】 on the surface. At that time, under the conquest of 【Order】, wild gods fell like rain, and countless believers who believed in wild gods were terrified all day long. In a small town that had not yet been included in the territory of the Grand Court of Judgment, the players followed the guidance of the trial and found a mysterious fortune teller.

That was an old man wrapped in black cloth, at least his voice sounded like an old man.

He said he could foresee the future of living beings, but those who wanted to divine the future had to take out something to exchange with him.

For such non-mandatory rules, players naturally wouldn't honestly pay for it. A Purgatory Bishop turned his face on the spot and took action directly, wanting to force the fortune teller to submit, but before the flames of 【War】 could burn the corner of the other party's clothes, everyone heard a "slap"...

A perfectly good person was slapped to death on the ground just like that, spreading out into a pool of flesh and blood.

Blood and fire were indeed inseparable, but the will of 【War】 shouldn't be like this...

"What was that!!? A tongue!? He was slapped to death by a tongue!?"

Everyone was shocked. Someone felt the danger and intended to leave, but the fortune teller didn't seem to want to let them go. The first person who ran out of the doorway was also turned into 2D on the ground by his tongue.

Now, the remaining four stood still and didn't dare to move in the room.

The fortune teller sneered and turned into the inner room, leaving behind a sentence: "Enter one by one, today you will definitely witness the future."

The four looked at each other, their faces solemn.

No one was sure what the consequences would be for those who went in, so naturally, no one dared to follow. They were all dragging time to think of ways, but not long after, the voice from the inner room came out again.

"If no one comes in yet, then you don't need to come in anymore."

"!!!"

Under such intimidation, someone finally couldn't stand the pressure and shouted loudly:

"We have four people, joining forces might not mean we aren't his opponent, why sit and wait for death!?"

Long Jing listened and sneered: "Since you have such courage, why don't you go in directly and fight for a 'future'?

Talking about joining forces, but your eyes keep looking at the window and the doorway. Brother, you don't think that by taking us three as cannon fodder, you can escape today, right?"

That teammate saw his trick was seen through, and his face sank.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Very simple. Since no one is sure of getting out alive, why not enter in order? You go first, I go last, and the other two can go whenever. How about it?"

That person's pupils shrank, extremely angry: "Why should we go first!?"

Long Jing smiled and showed his fist:

"Because you will die if you don't go first.

On the way here, I observed everyone. To say something unpleasant, none of you present are my opponents.

Only that Purgatory Bishop had the strength to wrestle with me, but unfortunately, he died.

The old man could slap him to death, so he could slap me to death.

I don't dare to run, but this doesn't mean that before I die, I don't have the ability to send everyone on their way first.

So... if you want to live, it's best to be obedient and go in. After exchanging for your own dog-shit future, bring the information out and share it with the people behind. In this way, maybe we still have a way to live."

Hearing Long Jing's words, the teammates' faces didn't look very good, especially the one who spoke first, whose face was so pale it could drip water.

"Then why am I the first!?"

"【Fate】's choice." Long Jing shrugged, "Three choose one is quite hard to choose, but you spoke first and calculated us first, so it wasn't us who chose you, but you who chose yourself.

Pfft—

If you can't accept it, just treat it as 【Fate】 choosing you."

"..."

The conversation between the few wasted some time. Seeing the atmosphere in the room becoming more solemn, and the inner room gradually emitting a terrifying and inexplicable aura, Long Jing's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward, his posture looking like he was going to fight to the death with the other party.

It was just that the object of fighting to the death wasn't the fortune teller, but his teammate.

Looking at the playfulness in Long Jing's eyes, the teammate knew he couldn't defeat Long Jing at all, so after thinking about it, he finally made up his mind and walked into the inner room through gritted teeth.

No sound came from the inner room again. Everyone felt like a year passed in a second, and the atmosphere became more oppressive.

A long time later, the player staggered out like a zombie, smiling miserably at the people in the room:

"I exchanged the most precious thing for a divination, but he told me I have no future... ha, hahahahaha, I have no future."

After saying this, the person died.

The remaining three were shocked, and Long Jing's pupils shrank even more.

Everything in front of him told him this was a dead end, but he still keenly discovered that this teammate brought out useful information.

"The most precious thing"...

A flash of light flashed in Long Jing's eyes, and he looked at the remaining two.

The remaining two, one was silent, and one was almost crazy. The crazy one couldn't stand the pressure and wailed as he rushed out, but was slapped to death at the doorway.

The silent one saw this and walked in knowingly.

Not long after, she came out and smiled miserably at Long Jing: "It's not that there's no way to live, at least I survived."

Hearing this sentence, Long Jing was shocked, because he clearly remembered that this female teammate was a 【Silence】 believer!

But now she actually opened her mouth to speak!

What's the situation?

Long Jing quickly connected the information in his brain, his face solemn as he brushed past the female teammate who survived. He, strong, bumped the weak other party to the ground, knocking her unconscious, and he himself stumbled and almost fell at the doorway. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, supported the door frame, stood up from the carpet, and walked in with heavy steps.

The fortune teller had long since set up his crystal ball and smiled sinisterly at Long Jing:

"What future do you want to predict?"

Long Jing's eyes flickered. He stared at the black-clothed old man for a long time, then said quietly: "Your future."

"?"

The fortune teller was stunned and let out an even more penetrating laugh: "You want to predict my future? Interesting, but it's not impossible. However, my future is very valuable. What do you want to use as an exchange?"

Long Jing pondered for a moment and handed out a mask.

"The token of faith, the most precious thing I have."

The fortune teller was silent. He raised his head, glanced at the slight bulge under the carpet at the doorway with those invisible eyes, and sneered:

"Are you sure?"

Long Jing nodded heavily: "I am sure."

"Very good, the divination has begun. My future is..."

Just as the fortune teller was about to finish his sentence, Long Jing's eyes narrowed, and he gritted his teeth to initiate the Fate Choice!

The question of 【Fate】 was who would be buried in the past. Long Jing looked at the fortune teller who was about to say the answer and filled him into the only option.

The fortune teller should be buried in the past!

It was at the moment the choice was finalized that the fortune teller also gave his answer.

"My future is on you."

"!!!"

【Trial cleared, calculating rewards...】

Long Jing, who was sitting in the audience seats of the rest area, looked at the Lying Tongue in his hand, his heart panicked. He asked nervously:

"How did it end? My mask hasn't been taken back yet. What should I do?"

The Lying Tongue flipped over in Long Jing's hand and said lazily:

"You lost it yourself, what does it have to do with me?"

"..."
