Chapter 37: The Meaning of [Faith Game]?

The Meaning of 【Faith Game】?

If the people of the Advent Sect were on the scene, they might pick up paper and pen to record this great moment.

Because this is a moment worth remembering in history: humans, as "playthings" under the hands of 【All Gods】, had the opportunity to ask a 【God】 a question for the first time.

In previous special summons, 【God】 had only announced His instructions.

Believers, except for bowing their heads to accept a few vague praises, would not make a sound throughout the process.

But today, it was clearly different.

Both sides of the conversation were clearly interested, and both were chatterboxes.

After Cheng Shi had a plan in his heart, he brewed his wording for a moment and asked the first question very seriously.

"Why did 【All Gods】 descend?

Or rather, what is the meaning of 【Faith Game】?"

【Fraud】 didn't seem surprised by this question at all, and He said slowly:

"To become a god."

!!??

To become a god?

Who is to become a god?

All Gods?

Players?

From 【Fraud】's perspective, this answer seems to point to All Gods!?

Aren't they already gods?

Of course, this could also be a lie, and it also looks very much like a lie.

And that would mean the next question would likely be the truth.

If 【Fraud】 didn't exercise His authority.

"Hee hee, it's my turn.

Do you want to become a god?"

Cheng Shi's heart was stirred by raging waves, yet he still maintained an expressionless face as he said:

"No."

The eyes in the starry sky turned twice, noncommittal.

"The second question, in this 【Faith Game】, can humans, or players, become gods?"

【Fraud】's response still had no emotional fluctuations.

But this time, He responded very quickly.

"Yes.

Hee hee, it's my turn again.

Why don't you want to become a god?"

Cheng Shi's brain exploded with thunder. He carefully savored this "Yes."

Yes?

Can players also become gods?

This was even more like a lie than the previous one.

But the problem is, if 【Fraud】 didn't lie about the game rules, it meant that at least one of these two unbelievable answers was true!

God is not God!

Or, humans can become gods!

No matter which one was true, the answer was shocking enough.

So much so that Cheng Shi almost lost his ability to manage his expressions.

He calmed down for a long time before answering His question with an honest face.

"Because it has no meaning."

【Fraud】 was stunned for a moment, then burst into thunderous laughter.

"You didn't lie; you really are the child of 【Void】.

But speaking of which, if I didn't know you, just based on the questions you asked, I would have thought you secretly joined that organization behind my back."

Which organization?

Fire-bringer!?

"Cluck!"

Cheng Shi's heart sank. Although he had long known that He knew about the Fire-bringer, being mentioned by 【God】 to an organization that "resists God" to his face still made his heart exceptionally uneasy.

To be honest, Cheng Shi was not a good person.

He had all the common problems of humans:

A bit selfish, a bit cold, a bit afraid of death, harboring vague hope but not overly pursuing a beautiful tomorrow, and his attitude toward the present was to live one day at a time.

But none of these prevented him from understanding and appreciating people who "have dreams and bring light to others."

And the Fire-bringers were exactly such a group of people.

"I might not join them, but I will never despise them. If there is a time when I can help, I will not stand by and watch or stand idly by."

Now, it seemed that time had come.

Cheng Shi struggled for a while in his heart, but still asked a question for these poor children who "carry the weight for humanity."

"In the eyes of 【All Gods】, are they a joke?"

He asked very tactfully. Of course, the word "tactfully" describes the question "Do 【All Gods】 know of their existence."

For the Fire-bringers, the defensive power of this sentence might be very high.

However, 【Fraud】's answer was unexpected.

"You are concerned about them?

Interesting.

But you can rest assured, 【All Gods】 do not know of their existence.

Of course, except for me."

"!!!"

Cheng Shi's heart surged with stormy waves, and he blurted out:

"Why?"

"Why? This is a new secret."

Cheng Shi immediately lowered his head and thought hard, thinking about how to get more words out of His mouth, so he brewed for a moment and said:

"【All Gods】 don't know them. It seems God is not omnipotent either."

【Fraud】 chuckled twice and didn't get angry because of his disrespect.

"No existence is omnipotent, and no void is omnipotent.

All Gods exist in existence, void in void, isn't it normal not to be omnipotent?"

A flash of brilliance suddenly flashed in Cheng Shi's eyes. He looked up, stared at 【Fraud】, and said word by word:

"So, 【All Gods】 descended 【Faith Game】 to become omnipotent gods! Right?"

【Fraud】's eyes had no fluctuations, always carrying a smile, and the smile lines wrinkled at the corners of His eyes were like folded space, unchanging.

His tone was still full of deceptiveness.

"Guess."

"No need to guess, you didn't lie at all."

"Oh?" The eyes looked at Cheng Shi curiously, very interested, "How do you know I didn't lie?"

Cheng Shi pointed to his heart and said:

"S-rank talent Deception Master, this is the ability you bestowed upon me. It can see through all lies."

【Fraud】 seemed to be stunned by Cheng Shi's optimism. He couldn't help but laugh again, laughing uncontrollably:

"You use the power I bestowed upon you to listen to the heart of a 【God】. Do you think you can succeed?"

Cheng Shi said "confidently":

"Since God is not omnipotent, naturally He will be deceived and have His heart heard. So why can't I, who holds divine favor, succeed?"

The eyes blinked and blinked, seemingly understanding Cheng Shi's meaning.

"So, what you want is this.

What a slippery guy.

I can indeed bestow upon you a power that can deceive Them.

But the problem is, you don't want to become a god, why do you need a power that only a 【God】 can possess?"

Cheng Shi was very honest: "I just don't want to become a god, not that I don't want to deceive gods."

"?"

"Hahahaha, so that's it, I like you more and more."

The crazy laughter in the eyes gradually receded, and the entire form slowly merged into the void.

"Today's meeting was very pleasant. Go, when you become my 【God-chosen】, I will bestow this power upon you."

That's it?

Cheng Shi suddenly became anxious: "【Fate】? If He comes again..."

"Endure it, until you can deceive Him."

"..."

I endure your mother!

Cheng Shi just wanted to curse, but his vision suddenly twisted.

When his consciousness returned to his body, he had already appeared on the roof of the rest area.

The first scene he saw when he opened his eyes was the sun hanging high in the sky.

The first sentence he heard was:

"Hey, buddy, that... do you still have that 'Past Prosperity'... I want to exchange two more bottles for Lulu."

Cheng Shi's face turned black instantly.

Damn, bitches are everywhere. ===== CHAPTER 38 =====
