Chapter 648: An Mingyu: I had an audience with [Death]

An Mingyu: I had an audience with 【Death】

What did I see?

This is a good question. The smile on the blind man's face gradually faded, her brows frowned slightly, and a trace of worry flashed across her face.

She suddenly realized that her understanding of Them was still too little. Even after having an audience with several of Him, she still knew nothing about Them, no, or rather, about that 【*Him】 outside of Them.

So, in this world, in this game, there is actually a god who has never been known by players?

And it is a god who cannot be looked at directly, cannot be fathomed, and cannot be prophesied!

Since 【*Him】 is so mysterious, how did Cheng Shi... know about this?

Who told him about this?

The blind man's heart was in a mess. She was not only feeling lingering fear for her ignorance and recklessness, but more importantly, she was worried about the Fire-Spreader who was traveling with her.

She had seen that her future was to stand with the Fire-Spreader, so she was a bit worried that this calculation of hers would expose the hidden Fire-Spreader to the gaze of some irresistible existence.

This god whom Cheng Shi called 【Origin】 must have a higher status than the sixteen 【Him】s currently existing, otherwise 【*Him】 couldn't have directly destroyed her die of 【Fate】 and taken away her life under the protection of her benefactor.

What kind of existence is 【*Him】, and what does He look like...

The blind man's thoughts returned to this question. She had been looking for a cognitive anchor point belonging to herself for all existences in the universe. The "vision" of 【Fate】 helped her complete this feat, but this time, she failed.

Because she saw nothing, not even darkness!

The moment she shook the die, she had already died.

As for what number the 23-sided die of 【Fate】 in her hand rolled before turning to ash, she knew even less.

She only knew that her largest die... seemed to never be able to come back.

"Sorry, Qin Xin, I can't share this matter with you until I have investigated it completely." An Mingyu shook her head slightly toward Qin Xin with an apologetic face, "The Fire-Spreader is special. Before the cost cannot be estimated, it should stay away from danger as much as possible."

Qin Xin raised an eyebrow thoughtfully, seeming to have guessed something. However, since the Seeker of Fire wasn't sure whether to share it with him, he naturally wouldn't be obsessed with knowing anything.

So he nodded and smiled at the two in front of him:

"Also sorry, this identity has brought you trouble in measurement. Since that's the case, I'll honestly go outside and be a bodyguard. At least a burly bodyguard won't allow anyone to disturb you."

As he spoke, this founder of Fire-Spreaders actually walked away without any curiosity at all. When he left, he didn't forget to take the unconscious Aromani with him. Now, only two believers of 【Fate】 were left in the room, and a communication belonging to riddle-makers started again.

But this time, is it really a riddle?

No!

Not at all!

The moment Qin Xin closed the door, An Mingyu shook her head with a bitter face: "I saw nothing. This time, not even darkness."

Cheng Shi's expression changed slightly, and the heart that had been hanging finally slid down. He wasn't surprised by this answer. If one could understand 【*Him】 with a death divination, then in those eras of religious fanaticism active in Aflos, perhaps, some sub-gods would have made this attempt long ago.

Soon, a smile floated onto Cheng Shi's face. Since the heaviest topic had no result, then naturally it was time to talk about something relaxing, for example... how this God-Chosen of 【Fate】 was resurrected with the help of that adult.

Your recklessness killed you, and I saved you. Regardless of what spawned your recklessness, God-Chosen An, shouldn't the life-saving grace mean something?

At this moment, this was the thought in Cheng Shi's heart. He also knew that he didn't need to tease a Fire-Spreader, but if he didn't even mention the matter of hitting the grass and scaring the rabbit, it would be too sorry for his nature.

So Cheng Shi opened his mouth with 【Deception】-style sarcasm, directly twisting the heavy atmosphere in the room with one sentence.

"Are you a fan of Liang Jingru?"

"?" The blind man was stunned for a second. With her thoughts in a mess, she didn't understand Cheng Shi's meaning for a while and nodded straight: "Don't listen much, but it counts. Why?"

But as soon as these words were finished, she herself, together with Cheng Shi in front of her, fell silent.

The blind man was silent because her brain wasn't clear and she said nonsense, while Cheng Shi was purely choked.

No, sister, you can't tell good words from bad words, right? You really went for it!

How come, after dying and coming back to life once in the Gate of Downward Fall, you connected to the local brain circuit, right? You are on the same frequency as that couple, right!

Cheng Shi rolled his eyes speechlessly, then laughed out loud. He found a stool and sat down, tilting his head to signal the blind man to be conscious and tell everything she experienced, so that the person who saved her would know how great his credit was.

The blind man understood and sat at the table, telling the story seriously and strictly:

"I... had an audience with 【Death】."

Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow, not surprised at all, and thanked Mouth Brother in his heart, but soon he felt that he thanked him too early.

"He... seems to have some disgust toward me, no, it should be that He has some disgust toward the aura of death on me."

"Although I was extremely confused at that time, as if my body had been occupied, under the protection of 【Nothingness】, I could still feel a trace of changes in the outside world, especially after entering the void, this perception was slightly magnified."

"So I perceived His disgust, and also felt His rejection."

"He didn't want to resurrect me."

"At that time, I indeed gave birth to a trace of fear, and it accumulated more and more in my consciousness. I originally thought my recklessness buried the subsequent game path, but for some reason, after He was silent for a long time, He actually chose to save me."

"Praise 【Death】."

"If a person has never lost, they will not feel the beauty of life."

"No wonder He is the tail end of 【Life】. Before that stop sign cast by thousands of fresh lives, what He gave to the universe was never an abrupt stop, but an lingering sound that makes people think."

"I suddenly understand why you want to approach 【Death】, Cheng Shi. Have you also truly... died once?"

Died once?

Cheng Shi twitched his mouth and hummed in his heart.

If I didn't die enough, I would be too embarrassed to say I have career ambition under the boss's bone throne.

Besides, how can the matter of having an audience with that adult be called death?

That's called rushing toward!

But you did indeed die. Your death is different from my death; you are courting death.

Cheng Shi curled his lips, carefully examining the God-Chosen of 【Fate】 who had fallen into silence again, and only after waiting for a good while did he realize that there seemed to be... nothing left.

"Gone? Just this?"

The blind man raised her head, her expression somewhat blank: "You... are still expecting what?"

"Your audience, didn't you say you had an audience?"

"Didn't He chat with you for a couple of sentences?"

"?" The blind man frowned slightly, doubt rising between her brows, "Being summoned is already a blessing, and whether to bestow words is the will of the gods. How can it be decided by me?"

No...

Cheng Shi almost couldn't catch his breath. He looked at the blind man dumbfounded and asked with some uncertainty: "So you just appeared in the Fish Bone Hall, and then were sent back after being looked at by Him?"

"Yes." The blind man nodded, then thought thoughtfully, "So the place where 【Death】 is located is called the Fish Bone Hall..."

???

Ah?

Sister, are you being abstract with me?

You don't even know the Fish Bone Hall; what kind of audience is this?

Oh, but that's right, to be precise, the one waiting for resurrection is the exposed "Ram Horn". If you, a dead person, can have some perception, it can be considered the creation of 【Fate】.

However, is this audience a bit too rough?

Also, shouldn't that adult be a neutral faction? Why would He be disgusted by the blind man's death? Is that true disgust or the blind man's illusion?

What was the reason that made Him change His mind and resurrect the blind man? It couldn't really be the sentence I brought, right?

Hiss—

Do I have so much face? Can't be, right?

Mouth Brother, are you pitting me again?

Also, won't that adult record a big one for me because of this?

Will I have to work on a loan in the future?

That won't do! I saved someone, so be it, how can I suffer a big loss for nothing!

Who will make up for this deficit for me?

Cheng Shi was numb. He scratched his head, and his speechless gaze instantly looked at the blind man in front of him.

"You..."

"What?"

Cheng Shi opened his mouth for a long time, and finally sighed, not going to "exploit" this Fire-Spreader.

"Your previous audience, was it also this situation? They looked at you, and then let you come back?"

The blind man had gradually recovered her shrewdness while chatting. Hearing Cheng Shi ask this, she smiled and nodded: "Do you want to know who I have had an audience with?"

Cheng Shi didn't pretend either. If he suffered a big loss, he had to make up for it from somewhere else. Asking for intelligence could also be considered a way to recover blood, so he nodded directly: "Yes, can you say it?"

"【War】, 【Foolishness】, and... the sibling god of our benefactor in 【Nothingness】, 【Deception】."

"...?"
