Chapter 346
Evil Infant Tribunal
(6600 words today, no chapter split, have a happy weekend everyone~)
The trials of 【Birth】 are often not too difficult. The purpose of the entire trial revolves around the two words "Birth" and "Gestation," and the hints He gives are generally obvious enough without too many twists and turns. But even so, the trials of 【Birth】 are still a nightmare for many players.
Because His trials are never difficult in solving the problem, but difficult in... cognition.
You never know what kind of twisted 【Birth】 will you will encounter in His trials, and you never know what kind of things that subvert cognition you will encounter.
The history of the Life Era is far less civilized than the Civilization Era. Among them, those crazy, fanatical, bizarre, and paradoxical stories about "Birth" and "Gestation" are like a bottle of ink that never fades. Once it inadvertently mixes into the players' heart-lake, no matter how pure or impure this person's heart-lake is, it will definitely become extremely turbid after this.
This is what players fear most about the 【Birth】 trials.
Although this fear is not completely unknown, everyone knows that these things that break one's worldview will definitely happen around "Birth and Gestation," but the most outrageous thing is that it can always impact your cognition, tear at your fragile nerves, and leave you stunned and greatly shocked in a brand-new dimension you never expected.
But His trials are not always without shortcomings; they do have advantages.
And the advantage is that, setting aside the discord and individual little thoughts among the players, there are not many fatal risks encountered in His trials, at most there is a risk of pregnancy.
Cheng Shi couldn't figure out why the 【Prosperity】 trial he prayed for turned into 【Birth】, but since he was already here, he could only take this game down and add some points along the way. What's more, the location of this trial was his extremely familiar "home turf," so he decided to lead his teammates to start a speedrun.
A real speedrun.
"Where are we going now?"
Several people followed behind Guide Cheng like tourists on a group tour, asking curiously. Cheng Shi didn't just act according to his own ideas; while leading the way, he was also silently observing these teammates, occasionally asking a few questions to evaluate their strength and logic.
To achieve a speedrun, one must have enough understanding of the teammates, and only by tightening every screw to where it should be can the team's maximum strength be exerted.
So Cheng Shi smiled as he walked: "Think about the goal of this game. The place I'm taking you to can easily find clues to this goal."
The little assassin and the shy Scavenger fell behind and didn't make much noise. Along the way, it was the bold Gou Feng who was communicating with Cheng Shi.
The goal of this trial was not difficult, so Gou Feng had already speculated about it. Coupled with the observations along the way, he pondered and guessed:
"The goal of this trial is clearly to let us ensure that a life that shouldn't be born is born.
I remember you said, brother, that the Divine Birth Church here serves the purpose of gestation?
And as far as I know, among the followers of my benefactor, the Gestation Sect and the Birth Sect are two factions with completely different will and claims.
The local church guarantees the citizens' right to gestate and be gestated, so, this church worships 'Gestation,' not 'Birth,' is that right?"
Worthy of being a 【Birth】 believer, he still has some understanding of the history of the era when He was prevalent.
Cheng Shi gave Gou Feng a thumbs up, and then quickly explained:
"Yes, although the Divine Birth Church carries the word 'Birth,' what it worships is 'Gestation.'
They believe that all gestation is His gift, and all believers should enjoy this right, but the result after gestation has to do with everyone's piety. When someone becomes less pious during the gestation process, then the new life she gives birth to must also be impious.
The Divine Birth Church will not allow such blasphemous infants to descend, so there is an agency in the church specifically responsible for screening and handling such matters.
And this agency is called the Evil Infant Tribunal. I think we can find enough useful information here."
After walking for a long time, Cheng Shi stopped with everyone beside a building surrounded by high walls. He turned around, raised his hands, and smiled brilliantly.
"Tourist friends, the final stop, the Evil Infant Tribunal, we have arrived."
Everyone was infected by Cheng Shi's joy for a moment, and then looked around with a smile.
"This wall is built too high, why does it feel higher than the outer city wall we saw earlier?"
He told himself that perhaps it was because there was still too little information about Them, and he needed to collect more to have new ideas.
Think about it, if she really blasphemed, that would be one thing, but if it was a misjudgment, the angry citizens naturally couldn't let go of a church worker who attempted to kill her child or even kill her.
Such high walls are all to protect the safety of the staff."
As soon as this was said, everyone was dumbfounded.
The squinty-eyed one finally caught up. He smiled upon hearing this: "There's also misjudgment? So their method of judgment isn't a tool bestowed by Him, but an artificial assessment?"
Cheng Shi was actually also puzzled, but these things were what he heard from pregnant women or pregnant men when he was delivering babies, and he hadn't verified them yet. Today can be considered the first time to verify them.
"Trying to understand the past in the present always has limitations. Previous research was not detailed, but I think we can uncover the truth of history today.
Tearing off the mysterious veil of history with one's own hands is a very interesting thing, isn't it?"
The little assassin looked at Cheng Shi. Although he agreed with this point of view, he still said strangely:
"That's well said, but I hear your words, brother, and it sounds very much like a statement from a 【Memory】 believer. Are you really a Necromancer?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Cheng Shi, only to see Cheng Shi spread his hands and shake his head: "Who told you I was a Necromancer?"
"Ah?"
Several teammates were all stunned.
They had been assuming that this tour guide leading the way was a Necromancer, but after arriving at the place, he denied it himself.
"You're not a Necromancer?
That can't be, you couldn't be a Wood Elf, could you?
Brother, you don't look like someone from 【Prosperity】. You aren't lying to us, are you?"
Wood Elf?
Heh, where does he look like a Wood Elf?
Just when Zhang Jizu thought Cheng Shi had no defense and was about to reveal his true identity, he heard Cheng Shi nod honestly and respond:
"That's right, I am a Wood Elf.
Otherwise, why do you think I was eating cake? Even if I were really hungry, I couldn't be that hungry. That was the 【Decree Practice】 offered to my Lord!"
"..."
What a liar full of lies!
