Chapter 571: Back into the Trial

Back into the Trial

Although Cheng Shi still had many doubts He wanted to ask, He also knew that many things couldn't be achieved overnight.

It might be normal for a Messenger looking for memories to come and ask for news occasionally, but catching one person and asking to death is a bit too abnormal.

He had laid the groundwork for so long and made his identity seamless; it was impossible to create flaws again for a moment of urgency.

So after a short chat, Cheng Shi took Da Mao and left Afu Luosi's Duoer Gede.

As for where to go before the trial ended... naturally, it was to return to that 【Prosperity】 trial.

Cheng Shi had long seen where that trial was opened. It was in the capital of the Grand Court, Kateou Court, because only in Kateou Court would the flags in the court only be printed with the symbol symbolizing the Grand Court, without any other city or faction marks.

Mentioning Kateou Court, in fact, He had always been very curious about the 【Order Iron Law】 that replaced 【Order】. Since He was here, and there was a free thug by his side, Cheng Shi naturally wanted to explore.

So He asked Afu Luosi to use Ge Lis's means to "repatriate" the two along the original path, and then, in a silent and uninhabited court, two figures appeared again.

The time had reached the early morning, and there were only five or six hours left before the trial ended. The empty court had long since lost the traces of chaos during the day, and there were not even any Iron Law Knights stationed outside the court.

It can be seen that in this city floating with the aura of 【Order】, no one thinks that anyone can break order.

Cheng Shi scanned the surroundings and clicked his tongue:

"Pity, the teammates are gone, and I don't know how they are doing."

Hong Lin sneered and teased: "I take back what I said about you being a good person. Is it a bit too late to think of your teammates now, Lord Envoy Yu Xi?"

"......"

Cheng Shi's face froze, and He scratched his feet awkwardly.

Finally, after dealing with Afu Luosi, He had to start fooling the next one without stopping.

Hong Lin looked at him with a smile, didn't speak, and quietly waited for an explanation.

Cheng Shi didn't intend to hide it from Da Mao, so He told the story of how He had accidentally met a 【Deception】 Messenger who was playing him, exactly as it was.

"He had no malice, perhaps just for fun."

He set the tone for Envoy Yu Xi's approach as soon as He came up.

"He played me seamlessly in that trial, making my teammates feel like I had never left them, but in fact, I had slipped away alone many times.

I don't know how He deceived my teammates until the last day of the trial, when I realized from the discrepancies in my teammates' words that someone had been playing me while I was away.

And when I realized His existence, He smiled and greeted me from afar in the crowd.

From then on, I knew that 【Void】 also has subordinate gods, 【Deception】 also has Messengers, and I am the 'lucky one' who was teased by Him."

"Heh, are you sure you're a lucky one?" Hong Lin sneered.

Cheng Shi's face collapsed: "I can't call myself a jinx, and besides, knowing one more subordinate god of 【Void】 than others, how can it not be a kind of luck?"

Due to the experience of playing 【Envoy Yu Xi】, this lie was seamless. No matter how many questions Da Mao asked, He answered fluently.

Then, Da Mao believed it.

Or rather, no matter how Cheng Shi explained it, she believed it.

Of course, she also had her own shrewdness. Perhaps she didn't believe all the words Cheng Shi said, but she believed this person.

"So, after you discovered He was pretending to be you, you started pretending to be Him?"

"Uh, is that roughly what it means?"

"Cheng Shi, do you think I'm a fool?" Hong Lin laughed angrily. She pointed to where the two of them had just fallen, "Okay, even if I'm not smart, what about that 【Filth】 Messenger, that dual Messenger Afu Luosi?

He is shrewd enough, didn't He suspect at all that you aren't a real Messenger?"

"He suspected, so I pulled you over to use your power to intimidate him. Now, the lie can probably be dragged on for a while."

"......" Da Mao was speechless, "What do you want to get from Him?"

"Information!" Cheng Shi said sonorously, "Afu Luosi knows a lot about Them, and these things, we can't learn from 【Them】. Hong Lin, information about Them is very important. I think you know this better than I do."

"So, you know Them very well now?"

"Uh... not that well. After all, we just started contact, He suspected me, and I immediately called you over."

Hong Lin raised her eyebrows:

"Is that so?

Then Lord Envoy Yu Xi, can you tell me, who is that 【*Him】 that Afu Luosi refuses to talk about..."

"......"

Cheng Shi was silent. He was thinking about whether He should tell Hong Lin these things at this time.

You know, although Hu Xuan knows 【*Him】, she can't be called a real Messenger yet, and there is still quite a distance from 【Origin】.

But Hong Lin is different. She is... a bit close to 【Origin】.

He was afraid that because she learned about 【*Him】, something would go wrong.

Hong Lin is not a fool. Seeing Cheng Shi's expression, she knew that this question might not be convenient for her to know. Still, she believed in her friend, and even more in Cheng Shi.

So she said again: "Forget it, don't want to know anymore, troublesome."

Cheng Shi was stunned, then smiled knowingly: "There will be a time when it's not troublesome. Believe me, Hong Lin, I..."

"Alright, alright, stop being long-winded." Hong Lin's expression became extremely strange. She glanced at Cheng Shi with slight disgust, frowned and thought for a long time, and then asked again: "Aren't you afraid that the real 【Envoy Yu Xi】 will find trouble with you after knowing you are pretending to be Him?"

Look, this is Da Mao. She is still caring about her friend.

Of course, how much of this is care and how much is teasing, Cheng Shi couldn't be sure.

So He could only give two dry laughs: "Not afraid."

"Why?"

"Because..."

Cheng Shi laughed, but suddenly his expression became solemn. He reached out to Hong Lin, his five fingers spread, revealing a die with one point facing up in his palm.

"The coming path and the going path..."

As soon as the prayer was half-spoken, a different color flashed in Hong Lin's eyes. She also summoned a die and quickly said in unison:

"All are destined!"

At this moment, she remembered the words Cheng Shi said when He pulled her into the Destined One: If the final chapter of this world's script wrote their names, then no matter how they painted their own scripts, they would definitely appear on the final stage of the universe.

So, Cheng Shi is not afraid of 【Envoy Yu Xi】.

Rather than saying He is not afraid of 【Envoy Yu Xi】, it's better to say He believes in 【Fate】.

This is very reasonable, and also very predetermined.

Thinking of this, the two looked at each other and smiled knowingly. ===== CHAPTER 572 =====
