Chapter 597: Faith Fuses Again

Faith Fuses Again

The one who responded to Cheng Shi wasn't either of his benefactors, nor was it the chaotic giant hand that had reached down through layers of fog above the temple earlier, but an acquaintance—an acquaintance so familiar he was almost identical to him.

Ke Ta Luo!

This actor of Ultraman was walking toward Cheng Shi with a smile on his face again.

When he saw a normal person appear by his side, Cheng Shi suddenly unloaded the heavy burden in his heart.

Fortunately, it was good to have someone he could communicate with normally.

He stood up from the ground, looked at the smiling Ke Ta Luo, and asked the doubt in his heart with a slightly solemn expression:

"Ke Ta Luo, I saw... I saw..."

He wanted to say everything he had seen and heard to verify it with Ke Ta Luo, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back cautiously.

He realized he didn't have the position to question anything. Even if he were the true 【Chaos】 Messenger Ultraman, he didn't have the qualifications to ask a true god what exactly He was doing.

But he was too curious about everything that had just happened; he really couldn't control his distracting thoughts of wanting to know, so a flash of inspiration struck him, and he directly changed his words:

"I seem to have seen Him in a dream...

Perhaps it's because I miss Him too much. Sigh, I am always so pious.

Ke Ta Luo, is He here right now?"

Hearing this, Ke Ta Luo's expression almost couldn't hold up for a moment.

In this world, when it came to the degree of understanding Cheng Shi, Ke Ta Luo believed he could definitely rank in the top three. After all, he had been imitating the adult in front of him, so when the other party said these words, he could even think of what Lord Ultraman was thinking in his heart, or rather, guess in what way the other party was blaspheming the gods at this moment.

But he didn't dare to point it out, so he could only smile and shake his head: "I don't know."

"You don't know!?" Cheng Shi was full of astonishment, but then he understood the answer.

Ke Ta Luo hadn't said anything, but he had said everything.

No matter when he asked the other party before, the other party would give a clear answer, but this time the other party gave a vague answer. That meant his encounter just now wasn't fake; 【Chaos】 had really gone to play... no, had become 【Order】!

Then this heir to the temple...?

No, no, no, this wasn't the point. The point was, what did He want to do?

What about 【Order】? Where had the real 【Order】 gone?

How did He drill through 【Order】's loophole?

Cheng Shi was too curious. He didn't even need to ask any questions; Ke Ta Luo could read what he wanted to say from his face.

Seeing Lord Ultraman's shocked face, Ke Ta Luo lowered his head piously and said unhurriedly in a very respectful tone:

"My Lord, I know what you want to ask. If you are ready, Ke Ta Luo can take you to find the answer."

"!!!"

Cheng Shi's pupils shrank violently. He stared at the other party with sharp eyes and asked in disbelief:

"Answer? What answer? Do you know where 【Order】 is??

No, no, that's not right. What do I need to prepare?

What does He want me to prepare?"

Cheng Shi didn't fall into fanatical blindness. He became alert instantly, furrowed his brows, and began to ponder.

Everything he had experienced today clearly had a big hand pushing it from behind. As for whether this big hand was the one formed by the chaotic yellow fog, he wasn't sure, but it definitely had something to do with Him.

He looked at Ke Ta Luo's respectful eyes that had no other hints, and began to recall everything that had happened today. He combed through his own actions over and over again, even tracing back to the moment before he met Li Jingming.

Clearly, Big Cat was fine. Thinking carefully, the teammates and NPCs he met in the trial also had no problems. Even Long Wang, who had performed a rival act with him, didn't seem to have any other tricks.

On the contrary, it was himself! On the contrary, he himself seemed to have some problems.

When the 【Order's Iron Law】 emitted a 【Chaos】 frenzy and pulled everyone into the feast of chaos, he clearly had the opportunity to take Big Cat and the other two and leave directly. But at that time, his brain got hot, and he rushed to His side, wanting to offer Him a helping hand...

How ridiculous, a mortal, a fake Messenger, actually wanting to offer a helping hand to a "He."

Cheng Shi had self-knowledge. He knew he was greedy, but the greed at that time seemed a bit too heavy. This move of his not only gambled his own life but even bet Big Cat's life, and Long Wang's... Long Wang's didn't count.

Under those circumstances, that strand of greed indeed had some problems, but it couldn't be ruled out that he might have been slightly interfered with by 【Chaos】.

But in any case, there must have been a mastermind pushing all of this again. And the purpose of this mastermind... was it to let him get closer to 【Chaos】, or closer to 【Order】?

Or... find 【Order】?

Cheng Shi's gaze tightened, and he looked at Ke Ta Luo again: "You can take me to find Him? Ke Ta Luo, you wouldn't tell me that He, 【Order】, the First God of 【Civilization】, is right here in this 【Chaos】 Temple at this very moment, would you?"

Ke Ta Luo was stunned and lowered his head quietly without making a sound, but this reaction was enough to explain many things.

He really was here!

No, wait, you two didn't swap homes, did you!

Cheng Shi widened his eyes, his pupils shaking.

Mom, this is big news!

If I swap memories with Long Wang, wouldn't I be able to swap back a subordinate god relic?

"Where is He?" Cheng Shi asked impatiently.

Ke Ta Luo smiled and replied: "Are you... ready?"

"What should I prepare?"

"I don't know."

"... What do you know?"

"I only know what I should know, my Lord."

Ke Ta Luo's tone became increasingly tactful and respectful, yet Cheng Shi didn't appreciate it at all.

"Switch to manual."

"?" Ke Ta Luo was stunned; he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Seeing the other party's stunned look, Cheng Shi felt it was boring and curled his lips:

"Forget it, I'm not ready. I don't know what He or They have prepared for me, but I don't intend to know.

I give up. Since what you brought isn't an order but a choice, then I choose to give up.

Hmm, knowing this secret is enough to satisfy me. Er... but I must declare, I am not feeling smug because I know a secret about Them, just quite shocked.

Hmm, that's it.

I am a god-possessor; I respect Them, and I will never blaspheme Them."

"..."

Ke Ta Luo looked at the serious Cheng Shi, twitched his mouth, and didn't comment.

Cheng Shi chattered a lot. It sounded like he was replying to Ke Ta Luo, and even more like he was replying to Them, but in reality, he was persuading himself.

Greed is the way to death; that was said by the adult on the bone throne. When he didn't have enough strength to know certain secrets, it was better not to understand these things too much.

Give himself some time, at least... at least wait until he reaches the top of the god selection and gets the talent from the God of Fun that can deceive the gods, then it wouldn't be too late to consider these games between gods.

"Today's harvest is not bad; I'm satisfied.

Also, Ke Ta Luo, if you have something to find me next time, can you say hello in advance? Suddenly pulling me into His temple, I'm a bit... cough cough, I didn't even have time to tidy up my appearance."

Ke Ta Luo lowered his head and smiled while holding it back: "My Lord, I don't have the ability to invite you into the temple. You being able to come here is naturally because of the benefactor's summons."

"???" Cheng Shi was stupid. "Didn't you say He wasn't here?"

"I said I didn't know."

Cheng Shi's gaze tightened: "Then you mean He is here?"

"I don't know."

"..." Cheng Shi's heart was tight. His sharp eyes kept looking around, but on the surface, he was still angered to laughter by Ke Ta Luo's Tai Chi push. "Say one thing you know, otherwise, next time I have an audience with Him, I will suggest He change a substitute."

"!!!" Ke Ta Luo stood straight up with a "whoosh." He looked at Lord Ultraman opposite him with a complex expression and said solemnly, "I... My Lord, the advice I can give you is: I don't know."

"?"

As soon as the voice fell, the entire 【Chaos】 Temple dissipated with a bang, throwing the dumbfounded Cheng Shi out directly.

Cheng Shi was extremely confused. He kept muttering these four words in his mouth, pondering their meaning. As he thought, he suddenly widened his eyes, and the unbelievable shock was reflected in his two shrinking pupils.

"No, how did I... fuse faiths again?"
