Chapter 414
Another 【Deception】 Mini-Game?
But Cheng Shi still stiffened his neck and said:
"Yes, I admit I made it up, but how can 【Deception】's affairs be called misinterpretation? I was clearly offering to you, offering lies to you!"
As soon as these words fell, the cold wind in the void instantly vanished, the starlight in the eyes high above flickered, the spirals turned, and the corners of the eyes curled high; He looked extremely happy.
He smiled and looked at his believer, as if admiring a satisfying collection.
"Old bones are rigid and conservative, and little bones are equally dull and uninteresting; if I hadn't seen the fun in the future, I wouldn't have bestowed a second faith on him.
But you were wrong about one point; the fun on mortals is always limited, and the fun that changes on old bones is the truly good-looking and durable thing.
Little bones are indeed not suitable for 【Deception】, but thinking that I can see endless fun on old bones, the little bone without eyes also looks a bit cuter."
"..."
Oh no, does this mean he pitted another boss?
Cheng Shi retracted his neck, his expression sheepish.
Lord, my Lord, shouldn't point this out in front of that Lord, right?
Quite scary.
But since Squinty Zhang had already walked on the same path as himself, the big stone in his heart could finally be removed.
So Cheng Shi, who "got the cheap," changed his expression and quickly changed the subject, stopping his Lord's idea of infinitely extending this topic.
He was still thinking about the "era" that his Lord had quietly ignored, so his eyes turned and he tentatively led the topic to that.
"Lord, my Lord, you said you saw the fun in the future; does our 【Deception】 also have the ability to see the future?"
"No."
"?" Cheng Shi was stunned.
"I stole it from your other good Lord who is tired of flattering; why, don't you know? The relationship between gods is you steal and I snatch; since I can steal others', I can naturally steal His.
What's more, belonging to 【Void】, stealing His things is much easier than stealing others'."
"..."
But that's your partner in the same path!
You just hit our teammates like this?
Looking at your reaction, you're quite proud...
Cheng Shi was dumbfounded, and after being stunned for a moment, he said: "Aren't you afraid He will steal yours?"
"Hee~
What's there to be afraid of? It's already been stolen, otherwise why do you think He is full of lies?
I said, don't believe what He says; He is far better at lying than I am.
If you want to know anything, you might as well ask directly; no need to cover it up; I probably know a little bit more than He does."
"..."
Cheng Shi's expression changed; he was a bit speechless.
Lord, my Lord, do you know that your partner in the same path said the same thing?
So, which of you two knows more?
But Cheng Shi didn't dwell on it; since the God of Fun generously indicated that he could ask whatever he wanted, he might as well ask directly, saving his brain from probing.
So he swallowed his saliva, took a deep breath, and asked directly:
"Lord, my Lord, in the 【Nativity】 trial you sent me to, I heard some topics about 'era.'
Are you trying to tell me this through someone else's mouth?
That person said the era of 【Existence】 has passed, so I would like to ask you, is the era we are currently in the era of 【Void】, right?"
The eyes looked at Cheng Shi, blinking without speaking.
The two looked at each other, watching each other for a long time, "piously" offering to 【Silence】.
After a long time, Cheng Shi's expression stalled, suddenly realizing he was probably trapped again, so he sighed helplessly: "You should speak."
"Speak what?"
"Didn't you say I could ask whatever I wanted? I already asked, but what about your answer?"
The eyes blinked, the corners of the eyes carrying happy laughter.
"I just let you ask whatever you want, but I never said I would answer you."
"..."
Cheng Shi was numb; he laughed, laughed at himself, raised his hand to rub his nose red, and then shook his head and sighed.
He was thinking that if Squinty Zhang had an audience with the God of Fun, what a grand event it would be!
Thinking of the awkward moment, he wished the God of Fun would take him along next time to summon this little bone who wouldn't lie.
The God of Fun saw Cheng Shi's thoughts and also laughed:
"Little bones walking on the path of 【Deception】 will indeed have fun, but he is not suitable for this path."
"Why not suitable?" Cheng Shi saw his Lord was in a good mood and questioned righteously again: "For you, fun is supreme; shouldn't not suitable be suitable?"
"Sneer—
Although sophistry is my authority, you must know that 【Deception】 is just the appearance of 【Void】.
Walking on this path, fun has never been the direction, and lies have never been the purpose...
Covering up the essence is what my pious believers must tirelessly pursue."
Cheng Shi's gaze condensed, savoring these words carefully.
This was the first time 【Deception】 had interpreted His will for him; usually, this kind of work was done by 【Fate】, who spared no effort to correct his direction, but when it came to 【Deception】, it was the first time in history.
After all, His previous exchanges weren't very serious.
And this was also the first time Cheng Shi heard his Lord's official interpretation of the path of 【Deception】.
He pondered for a moment and asked another probe:
"Lord, my Lord, then what is the essence of 【Void】?"
"It is 【Fate】."
"No!" Cheng Shi looked with burning eyes, instantly mustered his greatest courage, and pointed directly at the essence of the problem, "Please forgive my presumption; I mean, what is the essence of 【Void】 you want to cover up!?"
Those eyes looked at Cheng Shi with interest, and replied with a not-so-serious giggle:
"It is also 【Fate】."
"..."
Cheng Shi curled his lips, muttering in his heart that this was clearly avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial; it seemed He didn't want to say.
But what Cheng Shi didn't expect was that 【Deception】 didn't end His speech, just turned His eyeballs three points, and then said:
"It seems someone has indeed aroused your curiosity.
【Filth-Corruption】's desire is always so strong; why, are you very interested in the 'era' He mentioned?"
!!!
"You know!? You heard it!?" Cheng Shi was shocked.
"What's strange about that? I might not be omniscient and omnipotent, but there are very few things in this void that I don't know."
"..."
I don't think it's things in the void, it's the fun in the void.
Giggling sneer!
Cheng Shi suddenly remembered this channel for watching fun that turned him into a spider web.
"'Era' is a very broad concept; the reason He doesn't want you to know is because 【Fate】 favors the set path, and He doesn't want the set path to no longer be set, so you probably can never know these things from His mouth."
Hearing this, a flash of insight flashed in Cheng Shi's eyes; he felt he guessed right; these two Lords seemed to have different views on the "set ending."
So he boldly continued: "Then what about you? What can I know from you?"
"Hee~
You think too much; with your current identity, you are not qualified to know these things yet.
But I was in a good mood after mocking old bones today, so I can play a mini-game with you."
Cheng Shi was stunned: "Another truth-lie game?"
"No, a mini-game named after my divine name."
"?"
Isn't that 【Deception】's game?
What's the difference?
Cheng Shi frowned, but soon a light of realization flashed imperceptibly in his eyes.
Seeing the change in Cheng Shi's eyes, the eyes hummed and changed their words again.
"Forget it, I'm not in the mood today, another day.
Hee~
The audience isn't very pleasant; believers aren't pious anymore.
Go, you go too; looking at you is annoying."
After speaking, a gale blew Cheng Shi down the void; when he opened his eyes again, he looked at the small magic lamp on the bed with bright eyes, whispering silently:
"A 【Deception】 game?
So...
That's what He meant!"
