The Broken Messenger Mask

(Very D!)

Although the words were very ugly, Afuluosi wasn't angry. In His view, expressing oneself is also embracing desire, so He wouldn't blame Cheng Shi.

But this matter concerned His patron. Whether it was out of the defense of the will of 【Filth】 or out of self-piety, He wanted to refute it, but just as Afuluosi was about to open his mouth to refute, He heard Cheng Shi laugh and say:

"After all, 【Filth】 will never refuse!"

"!"

Just this one sentence, Afuluosi wanted to take off his clothes again.

He understood too well; he was simply the perfect fit for the will of 【Filth】!

This kind of person should be the Holy Son of 【Filth】, but why would he be a traveler of 【Void】!?

Afuluosi was very jealous. He had always wanted to pull Cheng Shi into his camp and had been planning it slowly, but today, when He knew Cheng Shi was a Messenger of 【Deception】, His thoughts were shattered.

And Cheng Shi didn't know that his performance had invisibly pulled himself back from the edge of the abyss.

He looked at Afuluosi, whose eyes were becoming more and more weird, and quietly took another step back, stiffly pulling up a fake smile to deal with it.

Afuluosi quickly restrained his desire and sighed:

"Pity."

Cheng Shi kept smiling, not daring to speak.

"A Messenger of 【Deception】, a believer of 【Fate】...

My brother, I always feel that your identity isn't that simple. However, everyone has secrets. I can hold back my curiosity, but what I can't hold back is, just now...

You and Him, what exactly did you say?"

Sure enough, what Afuluosi cared about most was actually the conversation related to 【Time】.

After all, 【Time】 is the god who imprisoned Him here. Being able to let a true god communicate with a Messenger of an opposing faith like an old friend is indeed an unimaginable thing.

Especially since this 【Existence】 seemed to have come specifically for Cheng Shi.

This is a very difficult thing to explain, but Cheng Shi had already prepared a draft just now.

Seeing him take out a tongue from his portable space and hold it in his hand, he explained to Afuluosi:

"Tongue of Lying-Eating.

The prank just now was said by it."

"???"

The Tongue of Lying-Eating was stunned. It thought its appearance would only be a prop to help prove its identity. Who would have thought that as soon as it went on stage, a big black pot would smash down on its head.

It immediately twisted its body and slapped Cheng Shi in the mouth, and denied it anxiously: "It wasn't me!"

Cheng Shi seemed to have expected the reaction of the Tongue of Lying-Eating. He immediately held down Brother Tongue and smiled helplessly at Afuluosi:

"Excuse me, because of some historical reasons that are not easy to explain, my mask was dismantled and turned into many parts left in different places, and this Tongue of Lying-Eating is one of them.

My Lord likes joy, so these parts that have given birth to self-consciousness always want to make some joy. You have also seen that they... are not very obedient.

However, I am trying to piece them back together, but this process might be a bit long."

Cheng Shi sent Brother Tongue, who was preparing to slap him again, back to the space with quick eyes and fast hands, and then rubbed his cheeks and said awkwardly:

"Finding myself probably made Him notice my existence again, so He came specifically to say hello.

Of course, I am more inclined to think this is a mockery. He might have seen my not-so-optimistic future in the deduction, so He came specifically to witness my optimistic present at this time.

And this is my story."

Afuluosi's eyes flashed with brilliance. I don't know what he supplemented in his brain, but he suddenly said:

"Did He dismantle your mask?"

Cheng Shi was stunned.

Who?

【Time】?

Hiss—

Seems... not impossible.

As the opponent of 【Fate】, arranging 【Time】 shouldn't cause any problems, right?

After all, He is a real acquaintance with Brother Mouth, and I also have 【Fate】's protection on my head. Looking at it this way, everything seems to be logical.

Cheng Shi's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he immediately nodded:

"Not bad, it is indeed Him!

So, to some extent, you, me, are all victims of 【Time】."

Hearing this, Afuluosi smiled again. He had never been as happy as he was today.

A friend who is incomparably compatible with the will of his patron, and now he has become another form of "prison mate"!

What could be happier than "getting closer to each other"?

"It seems that we have more common topics, my brother.

Then who is the other Him in His mouth?"

Where would I know!

Cheng Shi was numb.

Sure enough, the loopholes of one lie need to be filled with countless lies.

He didn't know who 【Time】 was talking about, and Brother Mouth refused to tell him and even set him up. In order not to make any more mistakes, he didn't dare to disturb Brother Mouth's peace, so he could only smile mysteriously.

"I can't tell you about Him, sorry Afuluosi, I don't want my friend to fall into a tight spot again.

But I can tell you about myself, and only by letting us understand each other better can I have the nerve to ask you to help me with some things..."

Although this sentence is still a lie, it carries some sincerity.

A sentence without any nutrition made Afuluosi deeply convinced under Cheng Shi's packaging. He restrained his joy and said solemnly:

"My brother, if it weren't for the restrictions of this cage, I could help you do anything."

"..."

Brother, if it weren't for this cage, I wouldn't dare to ask you for any help...

Of course, this can't be said. Cheng Shi was cheerful on the surface, and said with slight gratitude:

"I do have some things that need your help, Afuluosi.

The first is that if you learn any news about my mask fragments through other channels, please tell me in the first instance. I believe this cage of 【Time】 cannot trap you.

The second, I might need to borrow your..."

Afuluosi's eyes lit up.

"Borrow your doorway for a use." Cheng Shi smiled slightly.

"?"

Afuluosi was stunned. No, brother asked me for help, not using people, but only requisitioning the doorway?

"You mean... the doorway of the Infant Judgment Office?"

"Yes, you should also see that my identity is not just Foolish Play, but also a player named Cheng Shi.

Explaining clearly what I am doing is very complicated, and the involvement is also very large. You only need to know that I must play this identity well.

This is very important to me!

I believe you already have some understanding of the players of this era. Many of them have shrewd minds and strange ideas. It is very difficult to gain their trust with the identity of an ordinary player.

I can't reveal my true identity, so I can only use strange moves, use some 【Deception】 methods, to achieve my goal.

Simply put, I need to use a mysterious space to 'disguise' as the real me or other identities, so that I can pry something out of the hands of these shrewd players.

Of course, I don't need the things in their mouths, I just need...

them to be deceived."

Afuluosi was silent. He tasted the words Cheng Shi said for a long time, and then nodded, and shook his head again:

"I probably understand.

Indeed, They will always issue some edicts that the gods still cannot understand.

Practitioners of 【Void】 need to spread void, and Messengers of 【Deception】 need to deceive all living beings.

These, I can understand.

But I have one more question, this is the last question, my brother. After answering this question, the door of the Infant Judgment Office will always be open for you."

Cheng Shi's eyes lit up: "You ask."

Afuluosi's sharp gaze seemed to penetrate Cheng Shi's soul. He chuckled and said slowly:

"I felt your heartbeat, and also perceived your emotions. Your body is overflowing with the taste of 【Deception】. Although I haven't contacted Him, I can find a breath similar to lies from the sea of desire of 【Filth】.

You are lying, right?

Heh, so my brother, my last question is:

Whether just now or at present, are you, deceiving me?"

Cheng Shi felt a chill in his heart, but on the surface he was light and breezy:

"Yes!

I am deceiving you."

Afuluosi frowned slightly. He had thought of this point long ago. After all, the other party is a Messenger of 【Deception】. If even a Messenger of a god who advocates illusion doesn't lie, that would be too absurd.

But the problem is that being deceived makes one unhappy, not to mention that he hadn't realized where he was deceived, because the taste of lies on Cheng Shi's body had never faded from beginning to end!

However, he wasn't angry. At least in Afuluosi's view, Cheng Shi's willingness to confess his Messenger identity was already the greatest kindness to himself. As for other lies... for a prisoner, it didn't matter.

But who knew that in the next second, his view of Cheng Shi changed again.

Because Cheng Shi immediately added:

"My faith needs lies, so I told you lies. I embraced my own desires, and then... approached 【Filth】 to express my sincerity."

As soon as the words fell, someone's clothes fell to the ground again.

The full moon rose, both bright and white.

"???"

Under the illumination of this dazzling moonlight, Cheng Shi...

Was terrified. ===== CHAPTER 495 =====
