Chapter 35: [Fraud]
【Fraud】
Cheng Shi opened his eyes and found that he was not on the roof.
His heart sank, and his first reaction was: Did I guess wrong? Was what Xu Lu said true?
But when he found himself in the starry sky, above the stars, the previous thought was denied.
He was not wrong.
It was just that his body had been transferred by mysterious power.
He had heard other players mention this power in previous trials.
It is said that when 【God】 favors one of His believers, He will descend and summon him in a form that humans can understand when the trial ends.
"Damn, is this real?"
Cheng Shi's brain was buzzing.
He had never thought that the jokes these grandsons said were actually true.
Just as he held his breath and concentrated, looking for his Lord in the starry sky, a pair of huge eyes that could be called terrifying opened suddenly in front of him.
An indescribable pressure rushed toward him, striking his soul directly, making him dull on the spot.
Compared to these pupils that were almost equivalent to a black hole, Cheng Shi's body was like a speck of dust in the boundless space.
"Thump—"
"Thump—"
"Thump—"
Cheng Shi was dumbfounded, his heart beating wildly.
He felt his heartbeat getting faster and faster. Within a few breaths, it synchronized with the void fluctuations under this starry sky, and then gradually lost all perception as a "human."
If this feeling had to be described, it was probably like his soul leaving his body.
Cheng Shi looked down in shock and found that his shell had indeed stayed in place, with a dull look on its face.
And now he was transparent and drifting, like a spirit body.
It wasn't until this moment that all the inexplicable pressure of fear gradually dissipated, and Cheng Shi gradually regained control of his consciousness.
And it was also at this time that a cold, eternal voice came from these eyes, whose "whites were filled with spirals and pupils were sprinkled with stars."
"Cheng, Shi."
This voice was different from any sound Cheng Shi knew, as if listening to it would make one merge into the void.
He felt that he should be trembling now. He glanced at his feet, and sure enough, his body was indeed trembling.
But his current spirit body state was not afraid, so he responded lightly.
"Yes."
But immediately after, he felt it wasn't enough.
No one could remain calm as a human in front of 【All Gods】.
Even if there were, it was far from Cheng Shi's current strength.
So he added a sycophantic sentence:
"Praise the Void, praise the Lord. How fortunate to be summoned by you."
Survival, it's not shameful.
But unexpectedly, the eyeball that saw through everything moved slightly and made a sneering sound.
"Weak human, you don't even recognize your own Lord, yet you dare to speak of praise."
"!!!"
Not 【Fraud】!
Cheng Shi widened his eyes in horror instantly, but soon his eyes narrowed, and his mind turned rapidly as he tentatively asked a question.
"【Time】?"
Hearing this divine name, the eyeball turned rapidly like a clock for a while, and the voice became even colder:
"Blaspheming the divine name, I judge you guilty."
As soon as the words fell, Cheng Shi's spirit body instantly annihilated in the void.
As if it had never appeared.
His body also shattered into loose sand, blown toward the boundless abyss by the interstellar wind.
The huge eyeball turned around again and again until it felt someone's fate turn here, and then it closed quite "satisfactorily."
As if it had never appeared.
Time began to flow.
Like a century had passed, or like only a second had passed.
In the chaotic timing, after not knowing how long, the eyes opened again in the same position.
It was just that this time, the corners of His eyes were slightly raised, clearly smiling.
"Oh my, not too late."
The eyes of spirals and stars blinked and blinked. Every time they blinked, some bright stardust appeared where Cheng Shi's shell had originally been.
These stardusts attracted each other, fused and condensed.
When they were molded into the shape of a human by invisible power again.
This mud man molded under the starry sky opened his eyes.
"Uh—huff—"
Cheng Shi gasped for air, his forehead and back covered in sweat.
He looked at the eyes in front of him, gritted his teeth, and squeezed a word out of his throat:
"Fuck!"
The eyes were clearly stunned for a moment, but immediately after, He laughed even more happily.
"According to my understanding of your human language, this word seems to be expressing that you want to share the authority of 【Birth】 with me?"
The eyeball turned twice and giggled:
"Or maybe you want to pull me into the sea of desire of 【Filth and Fall】 and do some unspeakable, oh no, it should be unspeakable to 【God】, things?"
Cheng Shi listened to these words in a daze and swallowed the greeting with a high content of "fuck" with difficulty.
Whether it was the form or the tone, this was clearly not the same one as the one just now.
His mind churned for a while, seemingly guessing something, his face darkened, and he said in a deep voice:
"Watching your believers be killed by other 【Gods】 with your own eyes, as the Lord, I would like to ask, where is your so-called protection?"
The eyeball under the starry sky turned again and smiled:
"It seems you have guessed my identity, but you got one point wrong.
I didn't watch Him kill you.
I came with my eyes closed."
"?"
Cheng Shi was shocked.
So there was a reason for his shamelessness.
The so-called "the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked," isn't that exactly what it means?
But!!!
Is this what I'm talking about right now???
Cheng Shi was speechless, but he also confirmed one thing.
At least the other party responded to him and acknowledged that He was his Lord.
【Fraud】.
And the so-called "God-believer meeting" was not as heavy and solemn as he had imagined.
The first act just now didn't count.
"So, can you tell your confused believer what the situation was just now, that murderer... who is He?"
"Are you familiar with everyone so quickly?"
"?"
Cheng Shi quickly regained some human instincts and retorted:
"I have social anxiety, I'm not very good at dealing with people."
"I can probably understand your emotions, so?
Just because I saved you, and I am still your Lord, you are so...
Let me think, this word should be called:
Unscrupulous?"
Cheng Shi shook his head, denying 【Fraud】's statement.
"It has nothing to do with these."
"?"
"Because you are not human."
"Hahahaha."
A burst of joyful laughter resounded through the starry sky. The eyes filled with spirals and stars were already laughing to the point of being unable to control the frequency of blinking, twisting and deforming.
He looked at Cheng Shi joyfully and unbridledly, as if looking at a precious art collection.
"You are the second work that has satisfied me."
Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows, his expression calm, but his heart felt some unease about the word "work."
"Who is the first lucky one?"
"An interesting little girl named 'Zhen Xin.' To use your nickname, she is my 【God-chosen】."
Cheng Shi's pupils shrank.
【All Gods】 know 【God-chosen】.
Of course, 【All Gods】 should know everything.
But when a god talked about players in front of him as if talking about goods, Cheng Shi's heart still felt a bit strange.
"Oh? You seem to have developed feelings of anger about your identity as a player?"
Cheng Shi didn't play dumb anymore. He shrugged his shoulders and replied with a punchable look:
"Not allowed? Sorry, I can't control it."
"All anger is just deceiving oneself. The more fragile life tries to cover up its incompetence, the more angry it will be."
The eyes examined Cheng Shi's thoughts and giggled:
"Do you want to take revenge on Him?" ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
