Chapter 423: Inferences about the Divine War

Inferences about the Divine War

"Divine War!!?"

"Not long ago?"

"Is it true or false?"

Exclamations came from the floor. The mediocre people present, under the bombardment of heavy news again and again, could no longer hold back and finally erupted with the shock they had been suppressing since just now.

Various doubts and guesses were rampant, and the sounds of scolding and arguing almost drowned out the entire venue.

Cheng Shi keenly noticed that his big brother Hu Wei's expression also became somewhat astonished; clearly, he hadn't expected the person on stage to say such things.

President Gong pressed his hands and continued with a smile:

"That's right, it's a 'Divine War.'

Do not question the reliability of the intelligence I speak of, because it was witnessed by a friend of mine who does not wish to reveal his name.

Of course, the Divine War is not seen by mortals, and he only inferred it from the clues in the trial.

But I think his inference is completely flawless."

Once these words were finished, the floor began to discuss again. 【Foolishness】 believers were full of disdain, 【Decay】 believers were cursing, but the loudest voice among them belonged to that invisible 【Fraud】 believer.

Just listening to that voice, which changed locations everywhere, laughing and teasing:

"You surnamed Gong, this friend of yours who doesn't wish to reveal his name, wouldn't it just be yourself?

Are you creating a friend out of thin air here?"

President Gong on stage shook his head and laughed, immediately retorting:

"If it were really me, then when I said this news just now, my voice would have been louder, but unfortunately, it really isn't me.

After all, there are always people who are unwilling to appear in public for one reason or another, aren't there?

Just like...

Your Excellency, who has been hiding your head and showing your tail."

"......"

This sentence was undoubtedly lethal; that voice that couldn't be found also stalled and didn't continue the conversation.

Some people on the floor even started cheering for President Gong's rebuttal.

Cheng Shi watched this farce with great interest, thinking that this Mediocre Society of President Gong... was basically already a success.

Because quite a few "mediocre people" had already recognized his personal charisma.

It's just that he didn't know if this Mediocre Society was truly serving mediocre people as he said, or if it was a "wolf" wearing the sheepskin of mutual aid to exploit mediocre people!

After that voice stopped questioning, President Gong continued:

"To dispel everyone's doubts, I can lay out everything I know.

What is certain is that a huge accident occurred during the trial my friend participated in. As for what this accident was, he never found out, but he did witness the result of the accident, which was...

【The Gods】 descended into that trial together, breaking all precedents!"

"Whoa—"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed again.

President Gong was very good at "telling stories." Even though he wore a mask and everyone couldn't see his face, his posture and tone were too beguiling, which gave every word of his a kind of magic, making people want to believe him unconsciously.

But these words were not just simple shock to Cheng Shi; they were harsh!

Incredibly harsh!

Because this scene of the gods descending sounded too familiar.

Could it be that the friend President Gong spoke of... was a teammate he once had?

And that trial was the 【Prosperity】 trial, "Spark Extinguishing"?

No, there was too little information; it couldn't be concluded yet.

Cheng Shi's pupils shrank, and he continued to listen calmly.

"You didn't hear wrong, 【They】 descended into a trial at the same time.

And in that trial, which was enough to be written into history, two existences fought fiercely.

Of course, I don't mean that 【Time】 and 【Memory】 of 【Existence】 had a civil war, but 【Prosperity】 of 【Life】 and 【Decay】 of 【Sinking】—these two gods of opposing faiths broke out into a great war!"

"Think about it, fellow friends, with 【The Gods】 surrounding them, two gods fought fiercely due to conflicts of faith and struggles for authority. If this isn't a 'Divine War,' then what is?"

As soon as President Gong finished speaking, 【Foolishness】 believers on the floor began to disdain:

"Ignorant. If two gods fighting can be called a Divine War, then I can only say that the Mediocre Society is nothing but a ridiculous organization playing word games, and you, President Gong, are nothing but a clown on this absurd stage who makes people laugh."

?

The keyword was triggered!

Cheng Shi, who had been frowning and thinking about which teammate from his previous trial President Gong's friend was, was "slightly" broken after hearing this sentence.

What's wrong with clowns?

Why bring clowns into it when scolding people?

And calling others ignorant—【Foolishness】 believers are the truly ignorant ones!

Clowns are smarter than you!

The point in President Gong's words was clearly not "two gods fighting," but "【The Gods】 arriving together"!

This is the point!

If no major change had occurred, why would they descend into a trial at the same time?

Heh, things were becoming interesting again, and Cheng Shi's gaze became solemn.

He was thinking, in that trial where everyone parted ways, which teammate made this inference that was completely opposite to the facts? But thinking back and forth, there were only four suspects.

First, one could exclude that 【Decay】 rank four, Zhen.

If this Rotten Chanter who was tricked by the Big Cat into the Blood-Defeated Tomb wasn't dead yet, then he probably wouldn't blaspheme his own Benefactor like this and make such a guess that was unfavorable to himself.

The remaining three could actually be counted as two, because An Jing was Seeing Zhen Xin's person from the start, so she and Seeing Zhen Xin could be seen as one heart.

As for that Zuo Qiu who was replaced by Seeing Zhen Xin...

Although at the end of that trial, Cheng Shi left as a 【Fate】 believer and couldn't judge whether Zuo Qiu was alive through the number and nature of masks, based on his guess about Seeing Zhen Xin, that historian had a high probability of still being alive.

Because even her unlucky sister didn't seem to have the intention of killing people at will, so the more "orderly" sister probably wouldn't kill people at will either.

Even if Zuo Qiu's faith was opposite to hers, at Seeing Zhen Xin's height, the opposition of faith probably had to be ranked after interests.

So President Gong's friend was either Zuo Qiu or Seeing Zhen Xin.

Of course, there was a third possibility: his friend was Zhen Yi, or rather, he himself... could also be Zhen Yi!

Because these words sounded like something a scammer would say—false and true, true and false.

Others might not know, but he couldn't fool Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi had personally witnessed that Divine War and participated in the 【Divine Covenant Meeting】 that players shouldn't have participated in!

He knew that half of what President Gong said was right; the Divine War had indeed opened, but the one who fell wasn't 【Decay】, but 【Prosperity】!

And 【Prosperity】 didn't die because of the Divine War, but died of... self-destruction!

Inferring this conclusion from the limited perspective in that trial couldn't be said to be wrong; it could only be said that his friend was very bold!

Because no normal person would dare to speculate on the life and death of a god!

Looking at it this way, his friend looked more like Seeing Zhen Xin.

But was what she said true?

If that friend was indeed Seeing Zhen Xin, then how did she dare to guess that 【Decay】 had fallen?

More importantly, did that friend really exist?

President Gong, are you surnamed Gong, or are you surnamed Zhen?
