Chapter 649: Audience talk
Audience talk
When Cheng Shi heard the divine name of 【Foolishness】, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
Sure enough, it seems that not only is 【Fate】 intentionally approaching 【Foolishness】, 【Foolishness】 also seems to be observing 【Fate】.
Cheng Shi got some spirit. He leaned slightly on the table and asked with interest:
"You have also had an audience with 【Foolishness】. He... what does He look like?"
In fact, Cheng Shi had met 【Foolishness】 before; at that Divine Covenant Assembly where 【Prosperity】 self-destructed, he had seen those turbid white eyes that spoke only in extreme yin and yang, and he had been deeply impressed by them.
But he had never been summoned by 【Foolishness】, so naturally, he didn't know what the self-reserved land of this second god of 【Chaos】, the continuation of 【Chaos】, looked like.
It couldn't be a high tower hung with white-eyed wind chimes, right?
The blind man pondered for a moment, not knowing how to answer. She shook her head, stood up, walked straight to the door, invited the bodyguard gentleman outside back in, and then smiled and said to Cheng Shi:
"If you want to ask about 【Foolishness】, perhaps you can ask Qin Xin. He has had an exchange with that..."
"!!??"
Cheng Shi was stunned and turned his head abruptly to look at Qin Xin.
Qin Xin was also surprised. He didn't expect that the exchange between the two about a certain secret matter would be so fast, so much so that he had just stood out and hadn't had time to take a nap before being pulled back in.
However, 【Foolishness】...
Thinking of this existence, Qin Xin's expression became slightly heavy.
"That couldn't count as an exchange, but..."
"He seems to know what I am doing."
"!!??"
Cheng Shi was dumbfounded again. He looked at these two Fire-Spreaders in front of him with a shocked face and couldn't believe it: "Does He..."
But immediately he realized he had said the wrong thing, his gaze condensed, and he quickly changed his words: "Does He know you are spreading fire?"
The two Fire-Spreaders saw Cheng Shi's shocked appearance, and their brows both raised. It was very obvious that the first "He" in Cheng Shi's mouth... referred to 【Foolishness】?
A glimmer of light flashed in Qin Xin's eyes. He felt in his heart that Cheng Shi perhaps knew some things they didn't know, but he didn't delve into it, instead quickly shaking his head to respond to Cheng Shi's doubt:
"I'm not sure, because at the time of being summoned, He asked..."
"Do you think your foolish actions will have an answer?"
"..."
Hearing this, Cheng Shi's scalp went numb. He couldn't imagine at all, under the eyes of a 【Him】 whose mouth was "all life is foolish, all civilization is foolish", in front of a god who was regarded as the highest wisdom of the universe by His believers, would a mortal, a player, have any secrets!?
Was this sentence He said a question, or a mockery?
If it was the latter, it meant 【Foolishness】 had long seen through the lies of 【Deception】.
But if it was the former, how exactly to answer to be able to express His meaning without revealing any flaws in front of Him?
Cheng Shi pondered for a moment without thinking of an answer, so he looked at Qin Xin with some expectation, waiting for a perfect answer that he didn't expect, coming from the mouth of the founder of Fire-Spreaders.
Qin Xin felt Cheng Shi's emotion, but he smiled bitterly:
"Perhaps I have to disappoint you. I didn't have a chance to answer."
"His question was more like talking to himself. When I heard this question clearly, I had already been waved away and left the void."
"..."
Cheng Shi blinked dryly, thinking to himself that this answer really didn't make people expect it.
Although a bit disappointed, it also fit cognition. Perhaps this second god of 【Chaos】 didn't expect to hear an answer from other gods, let alone other people. After all, in His eyes, everything in the universe was foolish.
"So He summoned you in the void? Instead of some god-land similar to the civilization isolated tower?"
"Yes, there was only a pair of eyes filled with chaotic white miasma in the void. The entire audience process was nothing more than my praise and His questioning."
"I'm not sure if I exposed anything, so I..."
Speaking of this, Qin Xin's expression stopped in embarrassment. He wanted to say that he went to verify with the Fire of Hope afterward, but he suddenly realized that even if he trusted Cheng Shi again, he shouldn't expose the mysterious existence that had always been protecting them in front of a non-Fire-Spreader player, so the scene suddenly fell silent, and the scene was extremely awkward.
Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow, roughly guessing what Qin Xin meant. He thought to himself that no matter who you were verifying with, no matter if there was a "person" behind the Fire-Spreading that you could see helping you, in his cognition, this "person" could only be 【Deception】, and must be 【Deception】.
Because He had said that it was His concealment that kept the Fire-Spreaders unknown among the gods.
But now it seems, whether 【Foolishness】 knows or not, it still has to be questioned.
At this time, seeing Qin Xin didn't know how to continue, Cheng Shi didn't pursue it, but thoughtfully changed the topic, not letting the two Fire-Spreaders be embarrassed all the time.
"I roughly understand. Thank you for your sharing. This matter is very important to me."
Actually, Cheng Shi didn't hear anything from Qin Xin's words. The matter of 【Fate】 wanting to approach 【Foolishness】 couldn't be proven by an audience. At this moment, he was thinking that when he had an audience with the God of Joy next time, he had to ask well if the Fire-Spreaders had been discovered by 【Foolishness】.
Although the God of Joy could deceive the universe, He couldn't stand the other being the "smartest" one in the universe, so when a liar and a wise man collided, who would be the one to fall?
He noted this matter silently and continued the topic he had when chatting with the blind man just now.
"I heard from your statement that 【War】 was the first god to summon you?" Cheng Shi looked at the blind man.
Upon hearing 【War】, the expressions of the two Fire-Spreaders changed.
A glimmer of light flashed in Qin Xin's eyes, but no one noticed and it quickly hid in his pupils. The blind man's brows frowned again, seeming to think of the moment she was summoned.
"You seem to care very much about Their summoning? Are you studying Them with this?" The blind man asked suspiciously.
"Don't you study Them?"
"In the final analysis, whether it is the historical school rummaging for history in the Continent of Hope, or the old mages exchanging and sharing intelligence everywhere, they absorb so much intelligence from the game and between players, the fundamental purpose is still to understand Them."
"It's just that the 'brush and ink' they use to depict Them are all taken from other people's understanding."
"And I, just took a shortcut."
Qin Xin and the blind man only thought that this shortcut Cheng Shi said was finding information from other people's summoning. How could they imagine that there would be a player who could often get the summoning of the gods, and then learn first-hand news about Them from the mouths of the gods themselves?
The clown in front of them was performing on stage to amuse the "audience" off stage, and observing Their performance by this.
This path—no, in the eyes of other players, this wouldn't even count as a path at all; it is more like a deviant road of delusional ascension, yet someone actually managed to walk this deviant road to the end.
The blind man nodded thoughtfully: "I cannot understand your way of understanding Them, but I can share my knowledge with you, to thank you for helping us again, no, it should be helping me, Cheng Shi."
"Thank you for saving me."
"..." Cheng Shi laughed dryly, unable to reply.
He really wanted to tease a couple of sentences, because he really couldn't control the slotting intent in his heart, but looking at the face of the Fire-Spreaders, he still held back.
Sister, in the future, divine less.
"Speaking of which, 【War】 summoned me very early. When I first reached the top of the Ladder of Audience, He summoned me on a battlefield where the void was extinguished."
Cheng Shi's gaze condensed: "When was that?"
"At the end of the first month after the 【Faith Game】 descended, He seemed to want to find an answer on me, but He was disappointed, so I only heard a sigh in the dawn of that battlefield, and then returned to reality."
"?" Cheng Shi frowned, feeling that this scene was familiar.
Old Zhang also seemed to have had this treatment. He was also sent back after spending a night on a battlefield where blood flowed like a river, so... what exactly is this third god of 【Civilization】 doing?
Is He observing 【Death】 and 【Fate】?
But your way of observation, how is it not 【War】 at all!
An ended battlefield doesn't it mean extinguishing the fire?
Thinking of His reputation again, could it be...
Hiss—
Did 【War】 really extinguish the fire?
Loud beep time!
