Chapter 318: The situation exceeds cognition, even out of control
The situation exceeds cognition, even out of control
There is no free lunch in the world. This sentence was taught to Cheng Shi by Old Jia.
So when such a "good thing" hit him, Cheng Shi had instinctively entered a defensive posture, starting to think about what kind of scam the 【Prosperity】 in front of him was pulling?
His tone was not hypocritical, and could even be said to be full of sincerity, but Cheng Shi knew that the more sincere it was, the more likely it was a scam.
Because the scene of the big cat being fooled by him was still vivid in his mind. He himself was the liar most skilled at using sincerity to scam people!
So Cheng Shi began to ponder, began to guess, his brain surfaced with all impressions related to 【Prosperity】, began to connect all information, trying to figure out what He meant.
And the first thing he thought of was Xiang Honglin's attitude toward 【Prosperity】.
She never firmly believed in 【Prosperity】 and even secretly guarded against 【Prosperity】, because she said that all her actions and thoughts were contrary to 【Prosperity】's will to promote the prosperity of the universe. Her prosperity is selfish prosperity, prosperity that plunders others, while 【Prosperity】's will is selfless prosperity.
But even so, 【Prosperity】 would still give her extra points in every trial.
This is the point Cheng Shi felt was the strangest, because he could vaguely feel that when the 【Gods】 added points for their respective believers in trials, it must not be random. This score should be their affirmation of their respective believers spreading their faith or practicing their will in the trial.
Okay, for the sake of rigor, 【Chaos】 doesn't count.
But since Xiang Honglin was so contrary to 【Prosperity】's will and was still appreciated by 【Prosperity】, then there must be something wrong with the logic somewhere.
But 【Prosperity】 is not 【Chaos】 after all. He shouldn't add or subtract points for no reason. So the place where the problem occurred must not be Him. Since that's the case, there is only one possibility:
The logic of the players is wrong.
But Cheng Shi was thinking, there are still many players in this game who perfectly practice His will and are also being added points, so perhaps the behavior of players practicing 【Prosperity】's will is not wrong, but is there a possibility that all players have misunderstood 【Prosperity】's will?
His will to promote the prosperity of the universe is only part of it, and the other part is self-prosperity?
Or change to a more terrifying statement, the prosperity of the universe is just an appearance, and self-prosperity is the true will!
After all, when He is prosperous enough, even to the point of including everything like today, isn't His will perfectly practiced?
Prosperity of the universe! When the universe is all 【Prosperity】, or only 【Prosperity】 is left, isn't everything in this world His will?
When thinking of this, Cheng Shi's cold sweat soaked his back in an instant.
Oh no, this is not inviting me to share authority at all, this is clearly treating me as fertilizer!
He wants to eat me!
Mom, help!
Cheng Shi's silence was too long, so long that the gentle breeze around him was gradually stopping. Feeling this increasingly heavy pressure, his heart was panicked.
No, sitting still and waiting for death will not lead to good results, only being treated as good fruit to eat. Must be active, must take action!
Cheng Shi, you have to save yourself!
His thoughts turned sharply, and he found that he probably couldn't fool the God in front of him who could see through the changes in vitality, so he very "pragmatically" pinched the die in his hand, deciding to ask for help before refusing.
He pretended to be at a loss, lowered his head, and whispered:
"Lies are like yesterday, sneering at today!
Help, Patron, help!"
But he never expected that as soon as his words fell, a pair of eyes filled with spirals and stars opened in the sky above this tree canopy sea!
The giant tree branches shook violently, and the countless flesh and blood returned and disappeared, making the giant tree return to the state of a tree. Then the exuberant life force of the entire space erupted, turning into clusters of emerald mist, rising and condensing into a pair of bright green
"【Fate】, why have you come?"
?
Cheng Shi was stunned; he never expected that the one who rushed over was actually his other patron, 【Fate】!
No, I wasn't reciting "Lies like yesterday," how...
Cheng Shi paused and looked at the die in his hand.
The Die of Fate.
He remembered; his prayers were never prophesied by 【Deception】, but were all relayed by 【Fate】.
So when He heard the cry for help he sent out, He rushed over directly?
Even though he was still just a clown now, a clown who hadn't switched back to the path of 【Fate】, He still rushed over directly?
Huh?
Recalling the sentence "Lies like yesterday" he had said, Cheng Shi wished he could slap himself in the face.
I retract all my prejudices against fate; I am damnably dead!
And it was at this moment that those eyes filled with spirals and star points first glanced at the unscathed Cheng Shi, and then looked at 【Prosperity】 without joy or sorrow, speaking with extreme indifference:
"【Prosperity】, you still have not given up your delusions; assimilating 【Decay】 through the grafting of faith violates the 【Convention】 and is even more inconsistent with 【Fate】.
I have seen the fate that is about to be tampered with, so I have come to correct it."
"Oh? Is that so?" That emerald mist of vitality grew even thicker; He almost filled the entire space, firmly wrapping 【Fate】 inside, "If the fluctuations of fate are all branded with the mark of tampering, then is the authority of 【Change】 that you hold no longer meaningful?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the spirals stopped turning, and the star points flashed wildly.
"Do you think I am joking with you?"
"【Fate】 is the one who likes to joke the most, isn't He?"
"Obsessed and unrepentant."
【Prosperity】 laughed, laughing elegantly and exaggeratedly.
"Obsessed and unrepentant?
No, no, no, the one who is obsessed is indeed Me, but the ones who are unrepentant are you!
This human follower of yours said one thing very correctly; I will make a slight modification to persuade you.
If all life in the universe blames misfortune on 【Fate】, then isn't 【Fate】 also a kind of unfortunate 【Prosperity】!
So 【Fate】... put down your prejudices and coexist with Me."
?
"Boom—"
Before the dumbfounded Cheng Shi could react to what he had just heard, a roar erupting from the void directly knocked him off the treetop, his consciousness completely wiped out.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself slumped beside Honglin's legs, and Honglin was covered in sweat, her back tense.
Seeing the warlike chosen one so nervous, his heart skipped a beat, fearing that some accident had occurred, but he looked around and seemed to find nothing unusual, so he attempted to get up.
But as soon as he raised his head, he was pressed back down by Honglin's hand, and then he saw the other party shake her head stiffly, her eyes glancing toward the sky.
Cheng Shi looked up in surprise following Honglin's gaze, and then he saw pair after pair of 【Eyes of the Gods】 opening above the boundless canopy!
These eyes with different wills and different auras scanned the Sighing Forest eroded by 【Prosperity】 with absolute pressure, and then they all looked up toward the canopy.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Shi only felt as if wild thunder had plowed through his brain, roaring endlessly; he was horrified and stiffened on the spot.
【They】... seem to have descended all at once.
"Fuck..."
