Chapter 212: I, Cheng Shi, am a born scammer
I, Cheng Shi, am a born scammer
If Ji Er's identity is treated as a Victim, all the previous doubts are explained.
Why he was merciless in his mouth, why he dared to offend anyone, why he didn't tend to cooperate, why he, as a "priest," never healed his teammates!
Because he is a scammer, an assassin, a victim.
A victim is a very magical profession, and also an assassin profession whose faith can be seen at a glance.
After all, except for Him, no one would call the assassin He protects a "victim."
This group is completely different from other professional groups; they are a group of lunatics who prioritize lies, a group of unreasonable fanatics; they have the arrogance to provoke everything and the courage to ignore life and death.
They are good at provoking others, and also good at playing with others; they are merciless in doing things, and even never worry about being retaliated against.
And the confidence that allows them to dare to make all the above actions is the only characteristic bestowed by 【Fraud】 on the victim: Fatal Return.
When you want to kill me, why don't you guess, will this fatal injury be returned to you?
This is the victim, this is His assassin!
They can activate the characteristic and return a certain injury they received to the source of the injury, so they never need to do it themselves to kill, all relying on the enemy's fatal blow.
Although this characteristic consumes a lot of mental power, under the correlation of life, no one dares to gamble, and this has created the arrogance and madness of the victims.
So why was Apol poked three times? It wasn't because the killer had high skills and was good at hiding, but because Ji Er returned the lance tip of the knight captain to him!
No wonder the sneak attack on himself in that fog was so clumsy; he didn't intend to kill himself with his hands at all; he was waiting for himself to make a move, and then just needed to transfer this injury to let himself kill himself!
Fortunately, he didn't chase after him at that time, fortunately, he stabilized his hand!
This victim is really cunning; he even constantly changes his persona and personality to stir up the enemy's anger, suspicion, and sympathy, just to give him a hit when the enemy's emotions break down.
As long as this hit is fatal enough, he can win this gamble about life!
Gao San died like this.
But he shouldn't have been "bounced" to death, but guessed the identity of the victim, or discovered Ji Er's flaws during the fight, and then used lies to control lies, actively faking death to get out of trouble!
Good good good!
It turns out this is a scammer round, it turns out this is a civil war of 【Fraud】.
The scam techniques of these scammer teammates are really good, so that when Cheng Shi figured all this out, it was indeed a bit late.
But it's not too late, because...
When I know you are a scammer, your lies can no longer scam me, and my scam, has just begun!
The nature of this trial has completely changed from this moment on.
Whether to win or not, put it aside first; I have to let you know who is the real clown, and who, is the real scammer.
Even if I believe in 【Fate】 now, the blood of a scammer flows in my bones.
The Iron Law Knight dragged Cheng Shi out of the prison with a cold face; the moment he stepped on the last step of the stairs, Cheng Shi was flashed by this dazzling brightness because he hadn't seen the sun for a long time, so the sudden change in vision made him fall to the ground.
The knights sneered, lifted him up again, and dragged and hugged him to the arena like this.
And there, a winner was already waiting for him.
Two burly strong men threw Cheng Shi on the ground and turned to leave; Cheng Shi listened to the cheers and shouts of countless spectators outside the arena, raised his head and stood up, looking at the... in front of him.
No, his gaze skipped over the unscathed Ji Er and looked at the VIP box surrounded by the flags of the Grand Court of Judgment in the center of the auditorium; he saw the supreme judge sitting high above the dozen or so judges, and saw one of the most powerful people in the Continent of Hope in this era.
He was an old man; although he couldn't see his face clearly, he could see that he was an old man with a serious aura.
Cheng Shi didn't recognize him, but was still shocked by his momentum and spirit; just after one glance, he felt that everyone in the arena, whether spectators or deathmatch prisoners, were like lambs waiting to be judged under his court.
"Interesting, shifting eyes is a performance of fear; are you afraid of me?
Why, did you see the death state of that fighting expert?
Very surprised?"
Ji Er spoke first when he saw Cheng Shi silent for a long time; he knew that the moment Gao San's corpse was dragged down, his disguise of "fear" became invalid.
The same routine can only be used once, but some routines are enough once, because once is enough to win everything.
So at this moment, he changed his strategy and decided to continue playing with this "non-lying" acrobat in front of him.
Cheng Shi came back to his senses after hearing this and raised an eyebrow.
He suddenly discovered an interesting thing, that is, this victim who calculated back and forth didn't seem to "discover" that Gao San faked his death.
Of course, the fact that Gao San is an acrobat and faked his death to get out of trouble is just an inference made by Cheng Shi based on the current situation; it cannot be determined to be true until he sees him "resurrect."
But if Ji Er didn't think of this point, then at this moment, all inferences about Gao San "must" be true!
Because Ji Er's victim identity is highly likely to be true; to defeat a victim, to make the other party reveal flaws in the subsequent battle, Cheng Shi must break the situation in advance and win the first move in momentum.
And at this moment, exposing Gao San's identity in front of the other party so that he knows he was scammed is the best weapon!
When I "see through" everything, but you are still kept in the dark, you have already fallen into the lower hand in the confrontation of intelligence and logic; those who feel their "intelligence" is inferior to others will unconsciously think more, and thinking more and making mistakes is the timing Cheng Shi is waiting for!
So Cheng Shi didn't rush to respond to the other party, but walked directly towards the other party without saying a word.
Ji Er's gaze narrowed when he saw Cheng Shi's action.
"Oh? In such a hurry to die?
Gave up on yourself?
Don't struggle anymore?
You don't really think you are an acrobat, do you? Even if you are, do you have the confidence to definitely beat me?
Ha, guess, how did that waste called Gao San die in my hands?
You, aren't you afraid?"
Although he said so, Ji Er still had a slight intention to retreat as Cheng Shi approached.
Before figuring out the other party's routine, even a victim wouldn't be iron-headed enough to rush to the other party's front to gamble on the enemy's killing move; that's not called rampant, that's called stupid.
Cheng Shi sneered after seeing all this and retorted:
"Afraid, of course afraid; no one will not be afraid of a victim protected by Him."
"!!!"
As soon as the words fell, Ji Er's pupils shrank.
Seen through, when?
He prided himself on having no flaws in his concealment, and the only one who knew his identity had already become his corpse and was dragged out, unless... Gao San didn't die?
Impossible, the rules of the deathmatch penalty will not let an undead person leave.
How did he see it?
Most importantly, who is he!
He is clearly not an acrobat!
The reason why Ji Er is so sure is because he has a talent called "Deception Master"!
He knew long ago that Cheng Shi was lying, so he questioned Cheng Shi sarcastically when introducing himself; not only that, he also knew that Cheng Shi's action of touching his iron nostril was a fake appearance he used to confuse people.
When the Deception Master is present, encountering this kind of player without a Deception Master is almost crushing in perception and logic.
So, still the same question, how did a "scammer" without a Deception Master discover that he was a victim?
Cheng Shi saw Ji Er's hesitation; this showed that the first step of his momentum had been completed; next was the second step, to crush the other party's confidence!
"How? Very surprised?"
He sarcastically returned Ji Er's sarcasm just now.
"Do you think you hid it well? Unfortunately, not everyone was scammed by you.
The best chance you had to kill me was the moment the war fog rose, when I didn't discover your identity.
And now, it's late."
After speaking, he specifically picked his iron nostril.
Ji Er looked at Cheng Shi coldly, his brain spinning fast, but his surface was still calm.
"Heh, do you think I will believe you?
You don't think this kind of clumsy action can scam me, do you?"
"Oh?" Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow after hearing this and suddenly understood, "So you are still a victim with a 'Deception Master'; no wonder, no wonder."
Ji Er's body stalled after hearing this, and the finger held in front of his chest twitched imperceptibly.
Cheng Shi knew he guessed right after seeing this, but his heart didn't have the joy of guessing right at all, but became very heavy instead.
Although he had long been prepared for the worst, and had prepared enough trump cards, he still felt inexplicably nervous when he knew that the other party really had a talent for judging true and false.
Because the confrontation between these two scammers next will probably be extremely difficult.
However, I still want to show you what is called...
Sincerity is also a lie.
I, Cheng Shi, am a born scammer; even if I don't lie, I can scam "people." ===== CHAPTER 213 =====
