I... can I come in?

(D!)

After making up his mind, the hunter of 【Silence】 had no more trepidation in his heart; there was only the excitement of what was waiting for him inside the door.

He was too eager to see the God, especially after learning that Chosen had begun to see Them one after another. His desire to see 【Them】 became even more urgent.

Otherwise, he couldn't have agreed to Gong Yang Horn's cooperation to help the other party hunt a Chosen.

One must know, even if Poison wasn't famous for her combat power, she was still a top-ranked player. Not to mention she was hard to deal with, deliberately targeting her could very likely invite the unfriendly gaze of the other party's patron, 【Filth】.

But Chameleon wasn't afraid at all; he was even looking forward to that unfriendly gaze of 【Filth】!

Yes, this believer of 【Silence】's desire to see the God had reached such a crazy point. No matter if the God's gaze was good or bad, as long as there was one, that was enough!

It was just that under the cover of 【Silence】, he, who didn't have much presence, wasn't understood by outsiders. And today, the moment Cheng Shi saw through his heart, his irrepressible desire completely... erupted.

He expected a huge surprise inside the door, but also told himself this was very likely the other party's means of mystification. After all, a hunter best knew how to set bait to trap prey, and coincidentally, the other party had also killed his partner, so this was very likely a trap.

But even if there was a one-in-ten-thousand chance, he wanted to try. Even if it really was a trap, he accepted it. The worst result was nothing more than losing a life.

A crafty rabbit has three burrows; how could a mature hunter not have a second life?

So Chameleon gritted his teeth and walked in. And the moment his vision recovered from the boundless darkness, he saw two people in front of a magnificent old-era building...

No, it should be said, one God and one human!

That handsome, even flawless man standing inside the door definitely couldn't be a mortal. The 【Filth】 aura overflowing from his whole body was suffocating; just one glance made endless desire surge in one's heart.

Such an existence, no matter what, had to be at least a subordinate God!

And now, this subordinate God and that "teammate" from just now were standing side by side, inside and outside the door, watching him with great interest!

Chameleon's brain went blank with a buzz.

He suddenly realized his desire had come true. Even if the person in front of him was only a subordinate God, who said a subordinate God wasn't 【Him】!

He never cared which faith's 【Him】 could summon him; he only wanted to see a Him, a Him completely different from mortals, representing the true meaning of the universe!

Yes, the Chameleon believes that all gods represent the essence of this world and are the source of all things in the universe, because he himself is a member of the God-Worship Society who is fanatically devoted to 【Them】!

And when he saw the undisguised madness in Chameleon's eyes becoming more and more intense, Cheng Shi suddenly realized this problem too. He finally knew why this believer of 【Silence】 would cooperate with Gong Yang Horn for such an absurd excuse.

So he was a lunatic from the God-Worship Society.

They had already stopped at nothing to see the God.

However, with this 【Silence】 rank?

Chameleon was excited and his soul trembled for a moment, standing on the spot, his mouth moving without speaking. Aflos glanced at him curiously, then looked at Cheng Shi, and smiled:

"Is this the interesting player you mentioned? A mute who can't speak?"

Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow and said with amusement: "You know he is a believer of His, yet you dare to say that. Aflos, in your tone, I heard the taste of blasphemy."

Aflos shrugged and said: "Even if He were present, He couldn't escape the title of 'mute'. They all call Him that; I'm just following the trend."

"?" Cheng Shi became interested. When he had learned a step ahead that Aflos was indeed not affected by 【Time】, he had told the other party that there might be fun things later. At this moment, seeing Aflos not respecting 【Silence】, he became even more amused. "It seems He also knows how to endure."

"Endure? Perhaps. But I prefer the term 'bystander'.

【Silence】 is a boring audience. He never expresses, never comments. He just silently watches everything in the universe, not knowing what He is thinking. Nothing can arouse His interest, but nothing makes Him feel bored either.

He is like a stone immersed in His own world, never changing.

I don't approve of His will, but I like observing His followers, because that was one of the few pleasures in the era when I became a 【Filth】 Messenger.

His followers want to show piety to Him, yet are unwilling to give up the desire to express. In the constant tug-of-war between faith and humanity, they can always spark many sparks that make people feel pleasant.

Oh right, I guess your patron should also like these things."

"......"

Don't say it, you really shouldn't say it. The God of Fun might have already observed these people. Even, He might not be observing 【Silence】's believers, but 【Silence】 Himself!

What fun is more fun than angering a "stone"?

Tsk, hard to evaluate.

The conversation here was heated, and the listening there was eager.

Although the two in front were criticizing their patron without any scruples, Chameleon didn't feel offended at all. Even if it weren't for the slight piety still tugging in his heart, he would have loved to join this conversation between Messengers and be a straight man who kneels and flatters while mocking his own patron.

Yes, he had already concluded that this mysterious teammate of his was also a Messenger, and even heard from the few words that the other party was very likely a... Messenger of 【Deception】!

After all, among the Gods associated with the word "pleasure", 【Deception】 would definitely rank first by a wide margin.

So this teammate who killed his two teammates was actually a subordinate God of 【Nothingness】!?

What kind of concept is this!

One must know, since the 【Faith Game】 descended until now, based on his understanding and cognition, no one had collected any news about any subordinate God of 【Nothingness】!

And today, he seemed to have witnessed the existence of a subordinate God of 【Nothingness】 with his own eyes!

Looking at the brilliant smile on Cheng Shi's face, Chameleon clenched his fists tightly.

Is this the smile filled with the meaning of 【Deception】?

He played an ordinary player to deceive everyone, and used a game of desire to bring himself in front of another 【Filth】 Messenger.

Mysterious, powerful, true meaning, origin... For a God-worshipper, everything today was enough to be recorded in history. But in Chameleon's view, he didn't care about history or not; what he cared about was how he could get Their...

Approval!

One must know, the most essential desire of the lunatics of the God-Worship Society was never simply seeing the God, but getting Their approval and becoming one of Them!

That is to say, the ultimate goal of the vast majority of God-Worship Society members was nothing more than becoming a Messenger of the Gods like these two. Of course, if there were more noble positions below the Messenger like Them, they could also accept them with pleasure.

God-Worship, God-Worship, in the end, it couldn't escape the word "God".

He really wanted to break 【Silence】 to express his excitement and awe, but his remaining reason told him that now wasn't the best time.

Before demonstrating self-worth and gaining the other party's appreciation, all behaviors of belittling oneself and blaspheming the patron would only be foolish acts that lowered one's own impression. Before the 【Silence】 era, the 【Foolish】 era was prevalent. His followers didn't inherit the arrogance of 【Foolish】, but they absorbed the wisdom of the previous faith era. They knew very well how to seize opportunities.

And he knew even better who gave him this opportunity to seize.

Thinking this, Chameleon looked at Cheng Shi with burning eyes, his eyes filled with fiery madness.

Seeing the little mute's fanaticism shift, Aflos smiled:

"So my brother, you brought him to see me, is there any fresh story to tell me?

I didn't see anything interesting in him. Where exactly is the fun you mentioned?"

"......"

Cheng Shi smiled, thinking to himself that it had finally arrived. Aflos's curiosity was the first step of the plan, and this step was best taken before the second player broke in.

Of course, Cheng Shi wasn't sure if anyone would follow, but he could use a joke to cover all possibilities.

He saw him touch his nose, then smiled:

"He is not the fun; the real fun is behind.

I encountered your patron's Chosen. You should know what Chosen means—a term mortals use for their own amusement—but it cannot be denied that 【Filth】 has some favor for her.

This door hasn't been closed, and she is right outside.

Think about it, a player who obeys desire, yet is resisting the desire in her heart and hasn't followed in to take a look. This...

Isn't this fun?"

As soon as the words fell, a head with black-fading-to-green hair poked out from the pitch-black door. She looked at the three people inside the door, blinked, and said:

"I... can I come in?" ===== CHAPTER 517 =====
