【King of Rotten Vultures】, Yuge

"!!??"

Afu Luosi doesn't know about the Convention?

Cheng Shi was confused, but in an instant He realized that the signing of the 【Convention】 was something that happened in the era of 【Void】!

So before this, after experiencing so many eras and epochs, did the gods never think of signing a 【Convention】 to protect divine power?

Are They not afraid of losing Their authority?

Or is it that before 【Void】 descended, the gods didn't realize this at all?

No, at least 【Truth】 and 【Foolishness】 are smart enough; They must have thought of what 【Void】 thought of.

But the problem is, based on Cheng Shi's understanding of the 【Convention】, this thing isn't for downward defense, but for upward defense. So to put it another way, before the era of 【Void】, were They not afraid of 【*Him】?

Ah?

If you put it that way, is it 【Void】 that brought fear?

Could it be that the God of Joy pointed out what the gods dared not say and single-handedly promoted the signing of the 【Convention】?

Too absurd.

Can the 【Convention】 be a contract led by a liar?

Yes, it really can. As long as the God of Joy packages this contract well enough, He can definitely sell it!

Even the gods' current disgust for the God of Joy, could it be because they were pitted by Him in the 【Convention】 matter!

Cheng Shi's brain was smoking. He thought of a lot of messy things, and his mood became extremely complex.

Good guy, I haven't figured it out yet, and I ran into a Messenger who hasn't heard of the 【Convention】.

How come I feel like I'm here to patch things up today? My mouth is going to be dry from lying.

How should I explain this to Him?

Cheng Shi frowned slightly, his thoughts turning rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, He brewed a set of rhetoric.

"The 【Convention】 concerns the gods. I can't say too much. I can only tell you that its significance is to protect all divine power so that it will not be lost."

After speaking, He smiled meaningfully.

Afu Luosi is very shrewd. As soon as He heard this sentence, He immediately figured out the key, his expression changed instantly, his pupils shrank, and his whole person became tense.

He never dared to imagine that the gods would have precautions against 【*Him】, because in His view, They should all want to get close to 【*Him】.

Afu Luosi took a deep breath. He looked at Cheng Shi in disbelief and asked solemnly:

"【Birth】 and 【Decay】... are also under the protection of the 【Convention】?"

Cheng Shi didn't hide it and nodded.

He remembered Afu Luosi saying that 【Birth】's will was very similar to 【Decay】's. He didn't understand it before, but now it seems that 【Birth】 is also one of the "close-to-Him factions." Afu Luosi's so-called similar will is probably the will to get close to 【*Him】!

Looking at it this way, the entire 【Life】 path is indeed as the God of Joy said, very worshipful of 【Origin】, but the problem is, why would that Lord on the bone seat get so close to the God of Joy?

No, it should be said, why does the God of Joy always go to get close to that Lord?

Does He want to win over 【Death】 and pull the other party into the "fear faction"?

Not impossible.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi frowned again.

Interestingly, as the conversation deepened, the three people at the long table frowned at the same time.

Cheng Shi was thinking, Afu Luosi was clearly correcting his cognition, and Hong Lin... was irritable. She felt that chatting like this was a waste of time.

She could see that this was Cheng Shi laying out emotions to fool the other party, but her personality wasn't suitable for this style. Even if she was fooling, she liked to fool directly and straightforwardly, just like when she admitted she was 【New Prosperity】 just now.

So she sized the two up for a moment, cleared her throat, interrupted their thinking, and sneered:

"This can't be said, that can't be asked. I didn't come here to play riddles. This is too much of a waste of time, 'friends'.

Let's speed up and exchange some things that can be said."

Cheng Shi and Afu Luosi were both stunned by Hong Lin's straightforward speech. Seeing this impatient Fulazhuo start to accelerate the rhythm, Afu Luosi laughed heartily:

"I feel the flow of desire, Lady Fulazhuo. Pleasant communication should be like this.

Since my brother has already answered one of my questions, what do you want to know next?"

"Anything?" Hong Lin raised her eyebrows.

"Anything."

"Tell me about Yuge. In my limited memory, there was once His figure, but... the assimilation of 【Prosperity】 made me forget a lot.

Now that I have taken back my position, I naturally want to take advantage of His weakness to clean up these dirty faiths."

"?"

As soon as this was said, question marks lit up on the foreheads of the two people at the scene.

Cheng Shi was curious about who this Yuge was that Hong Lin could ask such a question on this occasion, while Afu Luosi was interested in... what does it mean to take advantage of His weakness?

Who is weak?

【Decay】?

【Prosperity】 just fell, as His opposing faith, shouldn't 【Decay】 be at the time of harvesting faith? Why would He be weak?

But if this "Him" refers to another god... that's even more impossible, because Yuge is originally a Messenger of 【Decay】, a subordinate god of 【Sinking】, and has nothing to do with other gods.

"Lady Fulazhuo, I am very curious, that 'Him' you speak of, could it be... 【Decay】?"

Hong Lin glanced at Afu Luosi casually and said: "Does this count as the second question?"

Pfft—

Cheng Shi, who heard this, almost laughed out loud. Da Mao has become shrewd.

No, it should be said that Da Mao was already shrewd, especially when doing transactions face-to-face.

It's just that other people's shrewdness comes from massive calculations in their brains, while hers comes from her confidence, the confidence of her fists.

Afu Luosi was also stunned. He looked at Hong Lin with great interest. He seemed to have figured out the temperament of this new 【Prosperity】. To be honest, compared to Cheng Shi's mystery, He appreciated this Fulazhuo's straightforwardness more.

So He laughed heartily, turned back into a male, bowed his head solemnly and paid tribute:

"Naturally it counts. However, before you answer this question, I can help you retrieve some memories about this 【King of Rotten Vultures】 first.

Yuge was an emperor of a human empire. His past was not glorious.

When the wave of 【Decay】 swept the land, His ancestors led a group of believers to establish a dynasty that believed in 【Decay】. But 【Decay】 at that time was not merciful, so in those eras, He abandoned His benefactor when 【Annihilation】 arrived and chose to survive."

"?"

Is this story a bit too familiar?

Cheng Shi was slightly startled and looked at Afu Luosi in astonishment: "I once asked you about 【Decay】, saying that I also encountered such a kingdom. Don't tell me the monarch of the empire I encountered is Yuge?"

Afu Luosi smiled:

"To be honest, in the era of sinking, countless empires that believed in 【Decay】 had such and such problems, so I am not surprised that you said you encountered such a kingdom, because there are too many of them.

But whether Yuge is the monarch you speak of...

Hmm, let me think, I remember the country name established by His ancestors was called... Luo Sina?

My brother, looking at your expression, it seems you really ran into Him?

Why, didn't you see Him?"

I saw a ghost. He ran faster than a rabbit. By the time I opened my eyes, everyone in the imperial court had been taken away by him!

Can such a person be a Messenger?

"......"

But one thing to say, if the emperor of Luo Sina is really a 【Decay】 Messenger, then the density of Messengers in the last trial is too high. A trial actually involved three Messengers?

No, plus myself, there are four!

Hong Lin obviously didn't expect that the trial Cheng Shi told her about happened in Yuge's kingdom. She recalled what Cheng Shi had said and had a trace of doubt about whether Yuge's behavior could be called a Messenger, but she didn't speak, just raised her eyebrows and waited for the following.

"The era of sinking was destroyed, and He didn't get attention; the era of civilization began, and history just repeated itself; the era of chaos descended, and He still didn't get mercy...

Until the era of 【Existence】 arrived, He finally got the favor of 【Decay】.

Not bad, He and I, both in the era of 【Existence】, took that step.

At this time, 【Decay】 gradually became merciful, so in the 【Sinking】 era of that time, the kingdom of 【Decay】 finally ushered in a prosperous age. Under the blessing of the True God, Yuge finally had the courage to confront the believers of 【Annihilation】.

But the torrent of the era cannot be resisted. Even if they tried their best to resist, His kingdom eventually perished in the hands of the believers of 【Annihilation】.

However, 【Decay】 pitied His piety of fighting to the death until the last person, so He bestowed His mercy.

He promoted an emperor who had been gnawed by countless vultures before death to be His Messenger, and bestowed a divine name, 【King of Rotten Vultures】.

And this last believer of 【Decay】 remaining on the Continent of Hope at that time finally embraced the divine greatness when his own faith was about to end, and became a subordinate god of 【Sinking】.

Noble Lady Fulazhuo, are you satisfied with these memories?

To be honest, anyone you ask can get the answer to these things. It's just that you asked me first in the process of seeking verification. Counting it this way, it's me who made a profit."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi laughed secretly in his heart.

This person, thinking he made a profit, doesn't necessarily make a profit; but the one who doesn't speak silently must have made a big profit.

Who made a profit is another matter, but for this Yuge, Hong Lin clearly had thoughts. She frowned and asked again: "Where is He?"

"If this is the second question, I suggest you change one, because I am just a prisoner, barely understanding some of the past. As for the present, I don't understand."

"Since a round of exchange has been completed, can I continue the previous question?"

Afu Luosi still wanted to know what happened to 【Decay】.

Hong Lin gave a light laugh and looked at Cheng Shi with her peripheral vision. Seeing that Cheng Shi didn't answer, she curled her lips and said in a playful tone:

"Naturally, in fact, nothing big happened to Him, it's just that He replicated the operation of the old 【Prosperity】."

"?" Afu Luosi frowned, "What do you mean?"

"He destroyed Himself, not life, but... faith." ===== CHAPTER 568 =====
