Chapter 180: What a Favored One of [Chaos]!

~9 min read 1,733 words

What a Favored One of 【Chaos】!

"What a believer of 【Chaos】!"

After hearing Seeing Bai Ling's account, Ji Yue not only had no doubts, but a look of appreciation flashed in her eyes.

She actually developed appreciation for an enemy's behavior!

Seeing Bai Ling and Cui Qiushi were both a bit confused; Fang Shiqing furrowed her brows slightly and thought for a moment, but seemed to understand Ji Yue's meaning.

Ji Yue looked at the petals in Seeing Bai Ling's hand with burning eyes and explained quickly:

"He had clearly already taken everything, yet he was still willing to hand such a precious 'trophy' to you.

This is not charity, nor is it playing around, but... aiding the enemy!

The Void Experimental Field has already been captured, and the only ones still resisting are probably just us.

Look, these madmen have already started using human lives as shields to forcibly dismantle my cavalry lance obstacles; I believe they will rush to us before long.

And facing thousands of enemies, it's hard for us to hold on, but after having these two petals, resistance becomes hopeful.

So he left these two petals not for our survival, but to let this chaos continue for a longer time.

The Conjugate Whisper contains the power of void and reality combined, so its petals must be... at least for me, a priceless treasure that increases void affinity.

This masked chaos believer—no, he cannot be an ordinary believer; to be able to mix into the laboratory under our noses, to be able to take away all the results in our blind spots, to be able to disappear calmly in full view, he must be a favored one of 【Chaos】!

Whether it's the Funeral Bell Knights or the Doomsday Corporation, at least this masked expert must be one of the people in power.

Of course, 【Chaos】 has no power; I mean power as in he is closer to... His will.

I once had a 【Order】 friend who said that according to the understanding of 【Order】 believers of their enemies, there are roughly three types of chaos that descend:

One is self-exiled chaos.

This kind of chaos is just a superficial imitation; the purpose is nothing more than to let oneself gradually understand His will, but this behavior is too deliberate and cannot get His gaze.

The second is conspiratorial and orderly chaos.

This kind of chaos can spread His will through other people's hands; it is chaos that can please Him and be appreciated by Him.

The last is essentially disordered chaos.

This kind of chaos is His will; at present, no human should be able to do this.

Therefore, the second type of chaos is already the limit of humans.

This is also why my 【Order】 friend guards strictly against certain 【Chaos】 players.

Because the influence of the second type of 【Chaos】 believer on reality is too great, whether it is the reality we are in or the reality that once existed in the Continent of Hope, it is all like this.

And this masked person who left petals for us is clearly the second type of person!

He has set a trap for us that we cannot refuse!

Once we accept this 'goodwill,' it means we have actively walked into his trap.

Because he is looking forward to using this way to entangle with us, so as to witness the birth of new chaos and the continuation of old chaos through this entanglement.

But the problem is, judging from the current situation, we really cannot refuse!

So this person will definitely not be an unknown person in history; wait until I return..."

Speaking of this, Ji Yue paused suddenly; she came back to her senses and found that this was not a review meeting after victory.

Now surrounded by strong enemies, the crowd's situation was still dangerous; even if the cavalry lance obstacles delayed the enemy's advance, they shouldn't waste too much time here to communicate.

Furthermore, the fire was raging, and if they kept talking, the void would collapse!

You must know that this great fire burning in both void and reality turned into a world-destroying meteor in the Gasimela of reality, while in the void, it triggered a tsunami of void collapse.

No one knew whether this "tsunami" that even 【Nothingness】 was shaking in occurred before or after the giant tree burned out, so at this time, the crowd on the scene, besides saving time and resisting the enemy, should also pray that this collapse recorded in history would not come early.

Otherwise, I'm afraid no one could walk out of this trial alive.

Fang Shiqing saw Ji Yue's embarrassment; she sorted out her thoughts and thoughtfully picked up her words.

"If we can refine the potion you need now, wouldn't we have a better chance of holding on until the moment the trial ends?"

The scholar looked at the poet with burning eyes, her face serious and solemn as she shook her head.

"To be honest, I have prepared all the materials, only missing a Whisper petal.

I have also simulated the process of making medicine countless times to prevent wasting these precious materials because I am not skilled enough.

I can even extract the twin potion right here, in this laboratory where the Conjugate Whisper bloomed and bore fruit, within an extremely precise time...

But!

I cannot guarantee what kind of medicinal effect I will bear when I drink it; it might increase my combat power, but it is also possible that I will have no power to fight again within a certain time.

This point has never been recorded in any history.

And...

No matter how precise the duration of the extraction process is controlled, it takes time, and this time is not short.

After you lose my assistance, relying only on this Order Knight, I'm afraid... you won't be able to hold on."

Ji Yue's words were sincere; Fang Shiqing furrowed her brows after hearing them.

While listening, she was also sorting out everything that happened between the Fire-Bringers and Ji Yue, hoping to re-examine whether this temporary teammate was worth trusting, and whether it was worth the three Fire-Bringers betting their lives on it.

And the thing that could let them let go and bet was nothing else, but the... Mask of No Shame hidden on Cui Qiushi.

Yes, the effect of 【Sea Dream's Foam】 was to make the traces left by Cheng Shi not become others' memories, rather than physically erasing the traces he left.

Therefore, the moment the effect was activated, the power of 【Memory】, based on 【Memory】's own aesthetics, completed this fragmented memory stored in the "Fire-Bringers'" minds in a reasonable way.

Thus, the memories in the minds of the three Fang Shiqings became a different appearance:

When guarding for the main force, Fang Shiqing's mask summoning failed.

That expected Forgotten Doctor puppet did not revive in the summoning of the bone soldiers, and the mask that should have shattered did not shatter, but instead transformed into a new mask with defensive amplification effects.

Too many accidents made her realize she had been deceived, deceived by that Forgotten Doctor who had once rejected her.

But what was the point of him using a defensive mask to disguise as a summoning mask?

Was he trying to tell her that every face has a second face?

Just like how he said he was a bad person, but actually wasn't bad?

The recollection continued; this small episode didn't waste the poet too much time.

"Priest" summoning failed, making the situation look like it was heading toward collapse, but fortunately, fate didn't seem to have abandoned them; they found a stray Knight Team Priest on the way back to the team.

But when they brought this priest named "Layell" back to the ruin camp, they happened to run into Ji Yue exposing the identity of the mole and killing the Quartermaster in the team.

This was originally a small matter, but no one expected that the death of Gerfis would stimulate other 【Chaos】 believers hidden in the team.

They abandoned their disguises at the same moment and began to manufacture chaos openly.

Thus, the rebellion blown by the death of the Quartermaster finally buried this exhausted small team; the Fire-Bringers fought to the last moment in the chaotic battle, struggled to hold on until the end, and followed Ji Yue into the void!

And this Void Mass-Energy scholar actually discovered His creation 【Giggling and Mocking】 by coincidence, and through the divine power of 【Deception】, brought them into the laboratory!

Finally, after paying the price of two teammates' deaths, they "luckily" obtained two "aided-the-enemy" Conjugate Whisper petals.

Everything was so reasonable.

Except that the two petals in Seeing Bai Ling's hand were a bit "too easy to come by."

But putting these aside, this Mask of No Shame was total after all one of the few trump cards in the hands of the current "Fire-Bringers."

With Cui Qiushi's talent, plus the addition of this mask, the Holy Light Great Wall could last for a very long time.

As long as they could hold on until Ji Yue succeeded in this time, and split into a second Ji Yue, then in the situation where two 2600-point Knowledge Scholars joined the battlefield at the same time, they indeed had a possibility of holding on for half a day.

In any case, this plan definitely had a greater chance than the four people holding on rigidly at the moment.

Thus, Fang Shiqing, who had sorted out everything, made a decision in her heart.

She decided to bet.

It was very strange; she had always been a steady person, but today she just wanted to trust Ji Yue once, just wanted to bet like this.

And as a believer of 【Truth】, the trait of being decisive and without regret was thoroughly activated at this moment.

"Qiushi, Seeing Bai Ling, prepare to hold on to the death.

Ji Yue, whether we can live or not depends entirely on whether you can succeed!"

Saying this, Fang Shiqing handed one Conjugate Whisper petal to Ji Yue with a solemn expression.

Ji Yue clenched her fist and nodded solemnly.

"With this contract heart, I swear to 【Truth】, with this desperate intention, I offer to 【War】.

I, Void Mass-Energy scholar, Ji Yue, will definitely not fail the trust!" ===== CHAPTER 181 =====
