Chapter 659

The Clown is Here

The scene fell silent again. Morabik looked at Alandor with anger, the contempt in his eyes wishing he could hammer the other party into the mud. That expression clearly said, can you keep a secret at all?

But Alandor didn't care; he wasn't afraid of exposing his past at all.

"Piety doesn't need to cover up the past. Our roots indeed come from the Tower of Reason, but at the end of knowledge, there is no place for the Tower of Reason."

"However, you were wrong about one point: it is not us who come from the Tower of Reason, but our fathers. It was they who saw that the Tower of Reason had no future, so they gave up the pursuit of 【Truth】, jumped from the 【Abyss Volcano】 into the underground, held high the torch of knowledge, and were determined to spread the light of wisdom throughout this dark underground."

Hearing this, the Blind Man frowned, always feeling that the taste of 【Dementia】 was right, but the core of the faith was a bit wrong.

Their version seemed a bit too ancient.

Budding believers?

Some thoughts flashed through her mind, and then she recalled and asked suspiciously:

"I remember the Tower of Reason seems to have a punishment of exile called Deep Abyss. It says that the Learned Chair Committee will regularly review all experimental teams in the Tower of Reason. When it is discovered that someone has wantonly misappropriated forbidden experimental resources and has not made corresponding achievements, the entire team will be disbanded, and the person in charge and the misappropriator will be imprisoned in the prison of Gasmela, waiting for the 【Abyss Volcano】 to erupt, and then sink people into it..."

"Your fathers, wouldn't they have come down like this?"

"..."

"..."

Now, the two 【Dementia】 believers walked towards 【Silence】. They looked at each other and looked away awkwardly. After a while, Morabik sighed and looked at the Blind Man:

"You are indeed a lucky person protected by wisdom."

"I am indeed a lucky person, but what protects me is not wisdom, nor will it be your Lord 【Dementia】 whom you have never seen."

"So, the refining method you mentioned was brought down from the Tower of Reason?" The Blind Man continued to ask with interest.

"..."

"And it was a method that had been verified in the Tower of Reason and failed."

"With the rigor and madness of the Learned Chair Committee, as long as there was a glimmer of possibility in your fathers' experiment, they might not have pursued the responsibility of the experimental team. So that experiment of theirs had long since failed, right?"

"..."

"Then I am even more curious. You are so sure that you can successfully extract divinity from the Abyss Color Crystal, which means that the experiment was probably improved by you. But how did the exiled prisoners do this?"

"It is already a blessing that you fell underground and didn't die. How can you talk about improvement without even resources?"

"What's more, the most important reference criterion when the punishment of Deep Abyss is judged is the wanton misappropriation of forbidden resources. And this means that the experiment could not be completed with ordinary materials or ordinary instruments. Forbidden experimental resources are one of the necessary experimental materials."

"In this way, it is only possible that your fathers deceived the Tower of Reason and brought the core prop of the experiment from the ground, so they could restart the experiment underground, and even improve the steps."

"They are truly smart people. Even if they are exiled, they can still ensure that their experiment continues."

"So two wise men, I would like to ask, what is the thing that your fathers stole from the Tower of Reason?"

"..."

"..."

Alandor was silent. At this time, he no longer dared to face his past. Morabik sighed again and again. He looked up at this blind lady with a gentle face but sharp words, and his expression was extremely complicated:

"Who... are you exactly?"

"Are you people sent by the Tower of Reason to deal with us?"

"No, we are the people who came to help you!"

"!!!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present except Qin Xin was shocked, because these words were not said by the Blind Man, but by Cheng Shi!

The Clown is here. He finally found the Fire Spreaders and also discovered an unexpected joy.

In fact, Qin Xin had discovered Cheng Shi approaching all the way, but he didn't make any reaction. At least in his heart, Cheng Shi was not an enemy.

Cheng Shi also followed the direction of the two of them all the way. If it weren't for a few people in the shanty area who noticed the figures of these two strangers, he really wouldn't know how to find the right direction in this muddy swamp of desire.

The believers of 【Filth】 are too terrifying. Unless you kill them, you don't know whether your damage to the other party is damage or a reward.

It might even be seduction...

Fortunately, Cheng Shi finally found the person, and also bumped into Mr. Morabik, whom he was still "thinking about"!

How lucky. It turns out that this believer of 【Dementia】 had already arrived at the shanty area. If he hadn't bumped into Xiluo Lin's contact one step earlier, he was afraid that they would have really made contact.

Praise 【Fate】, everything is His guidance.

Cheng Shi smiled brightly at the two Fire Spreaders, roughly stated what he had encountered at the contact point just now, and then looked at Morabik on the ground, helping the other party up with a smile.

"Mr. Morabik, I have a business I want to talk to you about. Of course, before talking about business, we can talk about the issue of faith."

"We have admired 【Dementia】 for a long time and have long wanted to throw ourselves into His embrace, but we have been suffering from no door. Today we finally bumped into His believers. Who says this is not the favor of 【Fate】?"

Cheng Shi started bluffing again. After all, high-end academic talents were not comparable to ordinary small fries. He was counting on these two people to extract divinity for him from that Abyss Color Crystal, so naturally, he couldn't play hard with the other party.

In the experiment, besides steps and processes, feel and experience are very important. In the case of not being able to guarantee that he could replicate the operation 100%, stabilizing the core personnel of the experiment was the safest method.

And Cheng Shi had studied this "way" quite a bit. The "way" here was not the negotiation skill to stabilize people's hearts, but the deceptive art of talking nonsense.

So he started to get close, and in the process, he didn't forget to signal the Fire Spreaders beside him to cooperate.

The Blind Man was fine. As a charlatan of 【Fate】, she just smiled and gave the stage to Cheng Shi. But Qin Xin's expression was quite strange. He looked at Cheng Shi several times and then at the Blind Man several times. When he found that the Blind Man was quite trusting of Cheng Shi's attitude, he raised his eyebrows imperceptibly and kept silent appropriately.

Morabik was flattered. He didn't understand the relationship between the three, but this didn't prevent him from seeing that Cheng Shi "needed" him. It's just that this person's method of "begging for help" was more tactful and hypocritical than the two just now.
