Now the person is completely honest

(Not a drop left, 2 updates tomorrow...)

Cheng Shi laughed dryly and began to play dumb.

"So, when you met her, you grafted the fate of a Gravekeeper?"

"Big sister, you know quite a lot, huh..."

Cheng Shi's heart tightened, fearing that Tao Yi would also tell the part about him editing this 【Prosperity】 Chosen One. But fortunately, the other party seemed "unaware."

"We talk about everything," Xiang Honglin curled her lips and took back the long spear in her hand. "She is very grateful to you for saving her, but she guessed your identity wrong.

She told me you are a swindler, a clown who plays the pig to eat the tiger, but you are a Fate Weaver, and a Fate Weaver who has an affair with Zhen Yi!"

"......"

Sister, the word "affair" is a bit too much. We have no affair, we are clean and unpolluted.

However, Tao Yi didn't guess wrong, or rather, most players, when seeing a priest who changed faith, would think of a clown and a clown with the "Lies like Yesterday" talent, rather than a 【Fate】 Fate Weaver.

This is because a clown is a profession that relies on scamming other faiths' healing methods to perform a priest's function, while a Fate Weaver, its greatest ability is not grafting faith, but repairing fate.

Fate Weavers are different from other priests. They don't focus on physical pain or soul purification, but focus more on the target's fate, patching and mending their fate.

For example, when someone is about to be seriously injured and dying in an unavoidable disaster, although a Fate Weaver cannot change the trajectory of the disaster, they can repair this person's fate, turning his serious injury and death into a minor injury and escape, or even unscathed.

So a Fate Weaver is a predictive healer. His healing method is to "advance" the fate of the target's injury to a certain extent.

And the grafting of fate is just a compensation for this "unstable advance treatment plan."

When a Fate Weaver tries to repair others' fate again and again but fails to turn the tide, he can choose to kill the target himself and graft his fate onto himself, letting himself replace the poor person abandoned by fate and continue to walk a bit further on the road of fate.

So, every Fate Weaver who grafts fate always has an endless sighing story on them.

They occasionally scam people, but most of the time they are scamming tears.

That said, is this Wood Elf a bit too smart?

How did she guess he was a clown?

Where did that trial go wrong?

Seeing Cheng Shi thinking with a frown, Xiang Honglin seemed to see through his doubts, snorted and said:

"Are you very confused about how Tao Yi discovered your identity?

Confess your true identity, and I'll tell you."

Cheng Shi curled his lips and didn't buy it at all: "I am just a Fate Weaver, and a clean Fate Weaver. Otherwise, you wouldn't have heard of me from Tao Yi's mouth."

"......"

Although the logic is such, this sounds so awkward.

Xiang Honglin spat with disgust and said somewhat contemptuously:

"Can't see that you're clean, but there are quite a few routines. You're full of heart, just like that little fox."

"Little fox?" Cheng Shi pondered for a while before understanding that the little fox referred to Tao Yi.

"How about it, can't tell, right? Although she chose 【Prosperity】, she is like you, a swindler who doesn't belong to 【Deception】.

She has liked to observe words and colors since she was a child, and who knows what is hidden in her little head.

She didn't actually see through your identity, she just vaguely guessed that your identity was problematic when dealing with that teammate surnamed Su."

"!!!"

Cheng Shi's gaze narrowed, and he instantly thought of Su Yi Da's death. He said in shock: "Did Tao Yi kill him?"

Xiang Honglin nodded:

"Yes, I once gave her a 【Death】 dagger for self-preservation, which can be used to kill anyone she designates. This is a very precious S-rank item. It's a pity, it was used on a so-called Trickster Master."

Cheng Shi was shocked again: "She knew Su Yi Da was a Trickster Master?"

"I said, the little fox is very good at observing words and colors. She said that after the halfway point, she felt that the one surnamed Su had strange behavior. Except for foraging for her, he seemed to have never used the power of 【Memory】 again. And she also noticed that the Trickster Master was very concerned about you, and you, your gaze toward the other party was very erratic, and even turned a blind eye to the things in his hands.

So she began to suspect that Memory Traveler. Sure enough, after falling into the void, she noticed that the communication between you was even weirder. But at that time, she only thought you had seen through the identity of the one surnamed Su in advance, and didn't think you were also a swindler.

Remember when she held you and jumped into the belly of the Void Swallowing Pig? The little fox laughs for a long time every time she mentions this on the phone, because at that time she had already guessed the identity of the Trickster Master, so she didn't know the position of that Swallowing Pig either.

But she saw the gaze of that high school student, so she just held you and jumped down blindly.

Tsk, it's hard to imagine that a grown man would hide in a woman's arms when disaster strikes. Fortunately, the little fox is born to act, and didn't reveal any flaws."

"......"

Cheng Shi was numb. He never expected that there were experts in that trial!

"But it's a pity, people's hearts are separated by skin after all, she was still scammed by you.

Okay, really okay, a Fate Weaver plays like a swindler. Was Zhen Yi also scammed by you like this?"

"......"

Not finished yet, right?

Zhen this, Zhen that, isn't it bad luck?

Cheng Shi stood up speechlessly, pointed to the Sighing Mourning Tide that was gradually subsiding in the distance, and said:

"Big sister, you don't think I really just bet that you would come back to save me, right?

Even if I'm confident, I can't entrust my life to a friend's friend I'm not familiar with. I just bet a small game on the way."

He even emphasized the word "friend"!

Xiang Honglin's eyes became mocking when she heard this: "Don't show off in the wrong place, I don't buy it."

Cheng Shi clicked his tongue twice and didn't get angry, just explained slowly:

"You explored for so long with your speed and found nothing. At this moment, the other two paths have also made no progress. You have to know that the 【Prosperity】 trial is never difficult in finding people, but difficult in protecting people.

If He doesn't want us to protect His people, this game can't be won no matter what. We might as well break up and leave.

But if He wants to, He will definitely not make things difficult for us in finding people.

So when you can't find anyone outside the Sighing Mourning Tide, is there a possibility that the person we are looking for, or the clues related to the target... are in the mist?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiang Honglin's eyes narrowed slightly.

She finally knew why Tao Yi appreciated this player named Cheng Shi.

Bold, careful, dare to bet, can scam Zhen Yi, indeed a good piece of material.

"So, what did you find just now?"

"Ah? Didn't find anything. I was dragged out by you before I stayed long enough." Cheng Shi spread his hands with a punchable look.

"......" Xiang Honglin's mouth twitched, her face full of irritability.

This guy still managed to show off.

But to deal with such people, she generally had some unique methods.

Thus, the unhappy Xiang Honglin grabbed Cheng Shi's collar and carried him like a chicken toward the stagnant Sighing Mourning Tide.

"No, sister, I can actually walk myself."

Cheng Shi realized something was wrong and wanted to struggle, but his twisting hands and feet were quickly pulled back by Xiang Honglin with a wooden spear.

"You didn't want someone to carry you? Carrying and lifting are about the same, both save effort."

"I don't want to anymore!"

"Hehe, too late."

Saying this, she returned the snatched bottle of Prosperity of the Past to Cheng Shi's arms, and then threw him and the potion into the mist.

Under the catalysis of the power of 【Decay】, Cheng Xiaoshi became Cheng Laoshi again.

"......"

Now the person is completely honest. ===== CHAPTER 269 =====
