Chapter 707
How am I worthy!
The two of them didn't take long to arrive at the place where Cheng Shi and Qin Xin had fought before. Cheng Shi remembered that a garden of Rainbow Orchids was planted in front of the living area here.
Although this place was dilapidated after being repaired by 【Existence】, the original buildings were all still there. Cheng Shi soon saw the red Rainbow Orchid garden and found a bunch of crimson little balls by the roadside.
Looking at this location, this seemed to be the place where the kid he blackmailed had dropped the flower bouquet.
Sure enough, even the picked flower bouquet had changed color. This Rainbow Orchid was 【Time】's mark for different worlds, and even more so, a clue He left for the players.
It really is 【Truth】. Even though His believers have personalities that are more eccentric than the next, this brain... is indeed easy to use.
Since he knew the identifier for anchoring the world, Cheng Shi began to ponder the world-changing logic throughout the entire trial. This was undoubtedly what he cared about most, and it was also the key to him finding the way home.
But having said that, the Rainbow Orchids Cheng Shi saw initially were red, and they were red at this moment too. Does this mean he has returned to the initial world?
Obviously yes, because when he mapped each player's state to these Rainbow Orchid colors, he soon straightened out all the changes in the timeline for today.
At the beginning of the trial, everyone was an "initial player," so the world was also the "initial world." At this time, the color of the Abyss Rainbow Orchids was red.
Until he and the Blind One found Adrick, and confirmed that the orchids were still red on the way to bringing this miner back to the inn.
And the first time Cheng Shi saw orange-yellow Rainbow Orchids was outside the shanty area before the second exploration, which meant that the world changed for the first time between the second half of the first exploration and the end of the first centralized discussion.
This kind of change corresponded exactly to the first outbreak of staggering among the players.
Then the cyan-green Rainbow Orchids were discovered on the path to the mine after the second exploration, so during the second exploration, the world underwent changes again, and this time it also happened to be the second outbreak of staggering among the players.
From this, the rule seemed "obvious."
In the situation where Cheng Shi had people in his field of vision at every top of the hour, the world he was in was still changing, which showed that it wasn't just being thrown out of the timeline that would change the world one was in; the space-time they were in would also change due to the staggered state of the players.
And for Cheng Shi, the most intuitive perception was the smoke-and-mirrors trick he performed himself. After that staggered change of three players, the color of the orchids changed from blue-purple back to red, which undoubtedly proved that the above guess was correct, and that the world's change was strongly related to the players' staggered state.
That is to say, as long as there is a staggered outbreak, even if the player doesn't trigger the staggering rule, the world may be affected and enter a staggered state.
Therefore, if someone wants to keep the current world unchanged, they only need to ensure that everyone does not leave each other's field of vision at every top of the hour afterward.
But is this possible?
Impossible, because the Blind One's identity is not the initial her yet; she must change.
And as long as she changes, no one can be certain whether the world will change along with her.
Thus, the problem placed in front of Cheng Shi suddenly became a "random" permutation and combination again. He must push the Blind One's transformation, but also pray that the world doesn't change along with it after the other party's staggering appears, and also ensure that others don't mess around in this experiment of finding the way home.
This is too difficult.
It is acceptable to pin the hope of going home on the Fire-Spreaders, but now there are two outsiders. Although these two outsiders have acceptable attitudes, they are still variables that cannot be controlled.
Cheng Shi couldn't guarantee that everyone would be as "eager" to go home as he was in the next 7 days, and would honestly cooperate with the work, so he came up with a more reliable method, a method that would absolutely have no accidents.
That is... kill the uncertain factors first!
When there are fewer people left in the trial, the success rate of going home will naturally be higher.
And when only himself, Qin Xin, and the Blind One are left, the three people who trust each other can boldly play a permutation and combination game with 【Time】.
So Cheng Shi, who had figured this out, immediately looked at the Investigator beside him and revealed a kind smile.
Li Wufang's expression tightened. He saw the change in Cheng Shi's expression, quietly retreated half a step, and put one hand behind his back.
Cheng Shi poked his head to look behind him and laughed: "Why are you so nervous?"
"......" Li Wufang twitched the corner of his mouth, retreated another step, and said, "Your eyes have the same desire for destruction as the Ash-Extinguisher. Although I don't want to judge you with the heart of a villain, I have to ensure that you won't silence me because you want to maintain the mystery of that organization."
Tsk, the Investigator is too keen, a bit hard to make a move.
Cheng Shi frowned and changed his strategy.
"I am a priest with no power to truss a chicken, and you are a hunter famous for agility. How could I silence you?
Relax, you are too nervous."
Cheng Shi rubbed the Fun Ring between his fingers, and his smile became more and more kind.
"What I want to say is, do you really want to join us?"
"?" The Investigator was stunned and said in astonishment, "You guys really have an organization?"
"Yes, of course we do. You are very smart and keen, almost guessing our existence.
Not bad, we are indeed an organization that worships 【Fate】. There are quite a few of what you call darlings of 【Fate】 in this organization, but you might have heard it, not just anyone can enter this organization.
At the very least, you also have to be a darling of 【Fate】 to be qualified to sit at the same table and discuss with other darlings.
Do you think... you are one?"
Cheng Shi's smile became more and more brilliant. He saw Li Wufang's heart move, but unfortunately, the other party shook his head and denied it.
"No, I am not.
I am looking for the darling of 【Fate】, but I don't think I am the darling of 【Fate】.
I have indeed benefited from the guidance of 【Fate】, but I have self-knowledge. A moment of luck is not constant good fortune.
And your attitude also makes me dare not say 'yes.' I just believe in fate, but I am not stupid."
"......"
People are getting harder and harder to fool now, but it doesn't matter; liars will also change their tricks according to their targets.
After Cheng Shi sized Li Wufang up and down twice, he smiled again:
"Be confident, Investigator. How do you know you aren't? No one will be watched by Him and given guidance for no reason.
When you receive a little bit of 【Fate】's gift, the distance you have walked on the road of fate is already ahead of others.
So, you can completely admit that you are the darling of 【Fate】."
"What exactly do you want to do?" Li Wufang panicked. He wasn't afraid that Cheng Shi would sneak attack him, but was really moved by what Cheng Shi said.
He even started to wonder if 【Fate】 had always favored him.
"What do I want to do?
I naturally want to invite you to join us, to join the big family favored by 【Fate】. Isn't this what you want? What, do you regret it?"
"......" Li Wufang glanced at Cheng Shi and struggled, "What do I need to pay?"
"Smart!
All gifts of 【Fate】 have a price, it's just that some people can afford it, and some people can't.
To tell you the truth, we have a set of ways to test the darlings of 【Fate】, and this way is exactly the initiation ceremony for joining our organization. As long as you pass this ceremony, I am very happy to introduce you to others in the organization.
Their identities will definitely exceed your imagination."
"Is An Shenxuan... also inside?"
"?" The smile on Cheng Shi's face stalled. No, buddy, did you cheat?
How do you know everything?
"Not inside. A tiny God-Chosen, she is not worthy."
"......"
Good, good, good. The God-Chosen of 【Fate】 is not worthy, I am worthy!
How am I worthy!?
