Chapter 662

~7 min read 1,302 words

That core experimental material brought from the Tower of Reason to the underground!

Finding the answer to the trial was indeed worth being happy about, but the expressions of the three players present changed strangely at the same time.

Because according to the experience of past 【Time】 trials, future anomalies are often discovered only at the end. It was rare to be so smooth and find the answer on the first day of the trial like today.

Is this really the guidance of 【Fate】?

The Blind Man looked at Cheng Shi thoughtfully, Qin Xin was examining the two of them with interest, and Cheng Shi... played it safe and didn't dare to assert that this was the real answer.

Are you kidding? If the trial of the opposite side was so simple, and even allowed his own Lord to infiltrate and help all the way, then why engage in faith opposition? Just announce that 【Existence】 and 【Void】 are one family.

Even if 【Time】 wouldn't make things difficult for him like 【Memory】, He would definitely make some noise in the trial He bestowed, otherwise there was no way to explain why He suddenly appeared in front of Aflos's door to summon him.

Although that summoning looked like He was greeting Brother Mouth, that 【Time of Eternal Imprisonment】 had truly fallen on his head!

Cheng Shi didn't know what His purpose was, but he knew that 【Time】 was definitely not on a whim. It's just that what He expressed, he couldn't understand at all now.

So, is this answer he can understand now the real answer?

What does He want to express in this trial?

Just as Cheng Shi was thinking carefully, the quiet Blind Man spoke again. She didn't have much curiosity about the answer of Xiluo Lin, but was very interested in the experiment of the two 【Dementia】 believers.

She brought the topic back to the experiment again, but the object of inquiry was not Morabik and Alandor, but... Xiluo Lin, who also knew about this experiment.

"What did those two show you?"

As soon as these words came out, Morabik also looked over suspiciously. Xiluo Lin spoke clearly about their experiment, as if she had really heard of this experiment. But the problem was that he didn't think Alandor would leak the secret of the experiment without him knowing. So at this time, he wanted to confirm whether the other party really knew something.

Xiluo Lin paused, quickly recalled, and frowned: "A finger, a severed finger."

"!!!"

She really knew!

Morabik was shocked. He turned his head and looked at Alandor, but saw Alandor also looking at him with anger. The two scrutinized each other without giving an inch, as if they were both suspecting that the other party had leaked the existence of this thing.

"You really disappointed me, Morabik."

"Idiot, use your brain. I have been with you all the time. Where would I have time to leak these secrets?"

"Then why are you looking at me like that?"

"..."

"How do you explain that she knows your name?"

"..."

Morabik couldn't explain. He looked at Xiluo Lin with a stiff and solemn face, but saw Xiluo Lin, who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, add another sentence:

"I not only know Mr. Morabik's name, but I also know your name, Mr. Alandor. I also know that although the keeper of that finger is Mr. Morabik, the actual user is you."

"It was you who replicated a small part of the experimental content in front of me."

"Absolutely impossible! Without the Abyss Color Crystal, how to replicate it?"

"!!!"

"Could it be... you are a prophet!?"

At this moment, the two 【Dementia】 believers finally became completely demented.

The scene was chaotic. Only Xiluo Lin vaguely guessed something, but she didn't dare to be sure, because she didn't know if she would still be the boss of the shanty area after saying it, and if she would still be the leader of the Extreme Desire Brotherhood in the Inverted Gate.

Desire is not only indulgence, but also fear. She was afraid, so Cheng Shi was happy.

Because the charging of the Fun Ring was full.

Cheng Shi smiled and interrupted the free communication of these people. Players naturally wouldn't explain to NPCs what a "discrepancy" of 【Time】 was. They just wanted to know what that finger was, so he asked straight to the point:

"Let's talk, two wise men. Only when you explain this experiment clearly can we start cooperation and go help you find some Abyss Color Crystals."

"In the end, you are here to find this thing. So no matter who it is, as long as they can provide Abyss Color Crystals to you, they are the perfect cooperation object, right?"

"As for you... Ms. Xiluo Lin, for some reason, you may have to lose your freedom for a period of time."

"Of course, you don't need to be afraid. We won't do anything to you, because we are laymen in finding Abyss Color Crystals and need your help. I think you should help us, right?"

Xiluo Lin's face was very pale. Although she was indeed a bit panicked in her heart, she still gritted her teeth and seized the opportunity: "I can also cooperate with you all."

"?" Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow and was even happier, "We and the shanty area, and the Extreme Desire Brotherhood, have nothing to cooperate with."

"No, it has nothing to do with the shanty area. It's me, Xiluo Lin, personally, who wants to cooperate with you all."

"Do you think you have the opportunity to negotiate conditions now?" Cheng Shi smiled and picked up a scalpel.

"No, but I know that obedience is more helpful to you. I know this place, I know the Inverted Gate, I know the mine, I know the Hand of Agency, and I know my brother Alandor even better."

"I can tell that you don't want to kill me, and your goal is not just me. So I beg for an opportunity to cooperate with you, and the biggest bargaining chip I can give is..."

"Myself."

"I will be at your disposal, and I will assist you all in achieving all your goals in the Inverted Gate, even if my ending is still death in the end, I am willing."

"..."

It has to be said that Cheng Shi almost applauded her because of the other party's wonderful speech. Even Qin Xin and the Blind Man had strange expressions after hearing this.

The Blind Man was silent for a moment and asked: "What do you want?"

Xiluo Lin raised her head suddenly, looked at the Blind Man with hope, and said word by word: "I want Alandor to die, I want you to let go of the Extreme Desire Brotherhood. For the rest, I have no requests."

"You want Alandor to die? Isn't he your brother?" Cheng Shi blinked confusedly.

"Yes, my own brother from the same mother."

"Then you still want him to die? Hmm, it's not impossible, but... you have to add money." Cheng Shi said while pinching his chin.

???

No, he is my brother, why do you add money to kill him?

This sentence directly stunned Xiluo Lin. She looked at Cheng Shi blankly and didn't recover for a long time. It wasn't until Cheng Shi coughed to remind her that she woke up, gritted her teeth and promised again:

"Alandor's death can at least hide it from the Hand of Agency for seven days. Within these seven days, all the income of the mine will be yours. The Extreme Desire Brotherhood has no power to compete, and dare not compete."

"I know they have mined a few Abyss Color Crystals recently. These are all yours."
