Chapter 554: A long talk with [Deception] (I)

A long talk with 【Deception】 (I)

"Yes, there is no uncaused good in this world.

If there is an existence in this universe that you cannot fathom, cannot understand, and even cannot get close to, and He casually bestows upon you unimaginable divine power, as a normal person, you should of course feel afraid.

But the problem is, why aren't they afraid?"

The tone of these eyes, which were always flashing and spiraling, saying this sentence was unusually playful, carrying a unique teasing flavor of 【Deception】, making people feel like it was sarcasm as soon as they heard it.

But Cheng Shi didn't think so.

To him, this sentence was no less than a thunderbolt exploding in his ears, making his whole person freeze fiercely, his pupils shrinking, his eyes widening, and his disbelieving gaze moving upward, meeting those mocking eyes with a pair of terrified eyes.

He was scared!

Yes, he was deeply shocked.

This fear didn't come from the God of Fun's ruthless mockery, but because he felt that there were words in the God of Fun's words. This "you" and this "they" in His words didn't seem to refer simply to "you" and "them."

He felt a hint of self-mockery in this mockery, so he felt that the "you" was more like referring to Himself, and the "they" should be... Them!

Can't be wrong, this feeling can't be wrong. This was clearly 【Deception】 mocking Himself, and at the same time mocking the gods!

!!!

Wait!

How could He say such a sentence? No, it should be said, why would He say such a sentence in this tone?

Cheng Shi was very smart. He instantly thought of some ideas he didn't dare to extend further, but before this idea became clearer in his mind, the God of Fun confirmed his guess with a second sentence.

His guess was correct, because those eyes converged their smiles and said such a sentence with infinite sigh:

"You are afraid of me, this is very normal.

Then you guess...

Am I afraid of 【Him】?"

"!!!!!"

【Him】!

It is 【Him】!

The moment this "Him" sound came out, Cheng Shi knew that this "Him" could only be the 【Source】 that made Aflos talk about it with fear!

Although this was just a substitute, although 【Deception】 seemed to have said nothing, Cheng Shi just felt that he had heard the most terrifying horror story in the universe from his benefactor's mouth!

At this moment, a horror story far more terrifying than "there is no uncaused good in this world" was born, but the internal horror logic of this more terrifying story hadn't changed, only the protagonist and the "villain" of the story had been upgraded.

The dimension had been raised!

A higher-dimensional horror story might not be considered a story for low-dimensional life; it should be called... a disaster.

A disaster triggered by fear!

Cheng Shi listened with shrinking pupils, his whole body tense, not daring to breathe, and the self-mockery in those eyes hadn't ended.

"The birth of humans, in the final analysis, has nothing to do with 【Void】.

【Life】 bestowed life upon humans, 【Sinking】 expanded distorted emotions, 【Civilization】 promoted the progress of civilization, 【Chaos】 interfered with essential sobriety, 【Existence】 made the world colorful, as for 【Void】...

It was just a tiny joke, letting you have a game.

Therefore, whether it is me or 【Fate】, to you, it is just a source of power, but not a creator in the true sense.

And 【Him】...

Not only created everything, but also bestowed unchangeable divine names, and even delivered the most precious authority in the universe...

But no one knows why this is.

So you say, is it me who is terrifying, or is 【Him】 more terrifying?"

"..."

You are both terrifying!

Complaining is complaining, but to be honest, Cheng Shi had never felt empathy like this before.

Yes, empathy! Empathy with a god!

In those eyes with raised corners and spiraling confusion, he saw emotions other than joy and mockery for the first time, seeing something called fear, and, the shape of that fear was exactly the same as what was reflected in his own eyes.

He was afraid of his benefactor, and his benefactor was also afraid of... his benefactor's "benefactor"!

What does it mean that 【Him】 created everything?

In this way, are the gods "created" by 【Source】?

If a god can be "created"... then can He still be called a god?

Similarly, 【Him】 who created "gods"... isn't He the true god!

Therefore, the answer to the first question 【Deception】 said was finally confirmed at this time. 【Faith Game】 is indeed a game of pursuing to become an omniscient and omnipotent god, but this game's target seems to be not just players!

They, in this game, also have their own plans!

And the plans are different.

At least 【Deception】's plans are different from other gods.

The amount of information in these few sentences from the God of Fun was too large, so large that Cheng Shi's brain was about to crash.

But it was precisely because of these few sentences that Cheng Shi's vigilance against the so-called "uncaused" weakened a lot, because he discovered that he was not the only one bearing the pressure of "uncaused"!

If what He said was true, then His choosing him didn't seem so uncaused anymore.

The God of Fun's situation seemed to be the same as his own, that 【Source】 toward Him... toward Him... toward...

Hmm? What am I thinking?

Cheng Shi was shocked, discovering that his thinking suddenly couldn't keep up, as if he had been affected by something inexplicable.

!!!

Broken, consciousness began to blur again!

His pupils expanded fiercely for a moment, and his whole person was scared into a cold sweat. He felt that his soul seemed to start to resonate heterogeneously with his body, and even had a tendency to want to leave his shell.

And his vision also blurred. The pair of starry eyes in front of him gradually had double images, and the two eyes shook and shook into four, one pair with raised corners, one pair extremely cold.

He shook his head, took a deep breath, endured the crazy pumping of his heart, and tried to suppress the thoughts about 【Him】 in his heart, but the effect was minimal.

Looking at Cheng Shi's pale face, those star-transformed eyes laughed again.

He didn't seem to be affected.

"This counts as punishment for your blasphemy.

People should be afraid, but you have to think carefully about the object of fear.

Also, you asked the wrong god. 【Memory】 doesn't understand 【Deception】, and 【Existence】 doesn't understand 【Void】.

Since you want to know the answer to that question, why not ask it yourself?

On the road of blasphemy, you clearly walked further than anyone else, why now...

Hee~

Are you cowardly again?"

"..."

It was this "Hee~" that pulled Cheng Shi's dazed consciousness back.

He took a deep breath fiercely, and then looked at his benefactor with complex eyes.

He knew which question the God of Fun was talking about, but this question didn't need to be asked anymore, because he had already found the answer.

However, at this very moment, in order to express gratitude for the God of Fun's "protection," he still followed the "oracle" and asked that question.

"Why me?"

Those eyes finally smiled, smiling as happily as ever. Stars flickered alternately, spirals turned slowly, and the entire void was rising with a joyful atmosphere.

In this joyful atmosphere, He laughed loudly:

"My choice is not you, but... myself." ===== CHAPTER 555 =====
