Chapter 749: The God of Joy's hint, and the conjecture about slice universes

The God of Joy's hint, and the conjecture about slice universes

Actually, Cheng Shi didn't care whether the blind man in front of him was the real blind man. He didn't have such a deep friendship with the blind man as Zhen Xin, and the communication between him and the real blind man was just a phone call.

And to be honest, if the current blind man became the blind man who was publicly recognized as warm in the trial, it would be more beneficial to Cheng Shi!

Cheng Shi never dwelled on the past. After knowing that the blind man's identity had been swapped, he realized his

And this time, for the Joker, it was truly a perfect opening hand!

Do you still remember why Cheng Shi wanted to pull the Blind Woman into the Fated Ones?

It was for the History School in Zhen Xin's hands!

He used 【Origin】 as bait to hook the Blind Woman, originally just to "share" the first-hand information within this organization, but considering the sisterly bond between the Blind Woman and Zhen Xin, how to implement this idea later remained a question worth deep consideration.

But now, all the difficulties have been solved!

Because An Mingyu is no longer the original An Mingyu, and most importantly, given the deep friendship between the Blind Woman and Zhen Xin, it is absolutely impossible for Zhen Xin to sever this bond; she might even make various concessions on different levels to maintain it.

And the Blind Woman before him is even more perfect; she not only trusts him but also finds it hard to trust anyone else besides him, because she is the An Mingyu from another world. Before being certain of others' attitudes toward players from different timelines, she has no other allies to speak of besides him!

Zhen Xin counts as half at most, and Qin Xin also counts as half, but he counts as at least one!

Especially after he saved her from the eyes of 【Fate】, this Fated One seems to truly be becoming a Fated One in the real sense!

Of course, the "fate" here might not be the fate of 【Fate】, but the life saved by Cheng Shi!

Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in Cheng Shi's eyes.

Praise 【Fate】, this feeling of winning for no reason is simply fantastic!

He curled his lips and looked at the Blind Woman. Seeing that she was still in a daze, he knew that everything today had been too much of a blow to her. She didn't need to think too much right now; the most important thing was to have a good rest, and then slowly accept the fact before her, because there was a high probability she couldn't go back.

The God of Fun once said that everything experienced in the previous trial was a trick of 【Time】's deduction. Cheng Shi didn't really believe it to begin with, and now that he had seen the An Mingyu from another world, he naturally believed it even less.

Clearly, those parallel worlds exist in reality, but they might truly be like 【Time】's deduction—when no "practitioner" is performing a deduction, no one can discover their existence.

Therefore, Cheng Shi is more inclined to believe that what the God of Fun meant to express is that researching this kind of dimensional "parallelism" is meaningless, because the opportunity to perform the technique is not in the hands of the players. Players only have one chance to face it; if they miss it, they miss it. The parallel worlds people are guessing about now are still the countless parallel worlds where the universe 【Prosperity】 has fallen, not the one where 【Decay】 has fallen.

Further associating this with the speculation that "【Time】 has no time, perhaps because He is fighting against other 【Time】s," Cheng Shi made a bolder inference in his heart, which is:

Everything they experienced in the previous trial cannot simply be called a parallel timeline; it should be a higher-dimensional state clearly distinguished from the current parallel timeline. He defined a name for this possibility:

Sliced Universe.

Qin Xin's speculation that "spreading the fire is not easy" should be correct; the gods known to players are likely slices of the 【True Gods】.

It's just that Qin Xin's understanding was wrong. It is not that every parallel timeline has slices of the 【True Gods】, but that there are sixteen slices of Them in every sliced universe, and beneath this sliced universe, there are countless parallel worlds.

These worlds are what the God of Fun meant when He said "parallel worlds do indeed exist"!

In other words, Cheng Shi believes that there are countless timelines in the space-time where he is located, but these timelines have one thing in common: 【Prosperity】 has already fallen.

And jumping out of this dimension to look, in another sliced universe, perhaps 【Prosperity】 has not fallen, but 【Decay】 has fallen, so all the parallel timelines beneath that sliced universe are ones where 【Decay】 has fallen.

The previous trial caused a certain parallel world in four different sliced universes to intersect, and thus "identical" players from completely different timelines appeared.

So for the Blind Woman to want to go back, it might not be as simple as crossing the barrier of parallel timelines; she even has to jump out of this sliced universe, anchor her original sliced universe, and only then, under the gaze of the god slices there, can she return to her own world.

This is too difficult, because Cheng Shi feels that the gods, or to be more precise, the gods in the current sliced universe, very likely do not know of the existence of other sliced universes.

In other words, perhaps only the God of Fun and 【Time】 have discovered the truth of this universe, and the God of Fun discovered it far earlier than 【Time】, which is why He became the first Fear Sect!

Of course, this is also Cheng Shi's speculation, and the reason he dares to make this bold guess is entirely because of the change in 【Time】's attitude.

What 【Deception】 did today almost received the full support of 【Time】. An 【Existence】 who was single-mindedly trying to approach 【Origin】 actually became an ally of the "sole Fear Sect." If some drastic change or cognitive reversal hadn't occurred, Cheng Shi really couldn't figure out why 【Time】 would become like this.

This speculation is too terrifying. If it is true, then once any of Them knows, it will very likely trigger the next round of the Chaos of Gods.

But Cheng Shi also feels that the gods won't know so soon; at least before 【Deception】 and 【Time】 come up with a "solution," They probably won't know.

Otherwise, 【Dementia】, as the highest wisdom, would not have asked the question "foolish act" when summoning him just now, but would have directly peered into his experiences and guessed the truth of the universe!

So it was the God of Fun who concealed the facts; He deceived all the gods, except 【Time】!

The current 【Time】 might be a true ally of the God of Fun!

Especially when the opposing faiths put aside their prejudices and merged into one, I almost saw the road ahead for the universe:

No, can't court death!

Cheng Shi suddenly felt cold all over. He forcibly suppressed the thoughts in his heart, not letting them extend toward that higher existence. After taking a few deep breaths, he refocused his attention on the present.

He looked at the Blind Woman, who was gradually perking up, and as if having made some decision, he said with some determination between his brows:

"Divine Selection An, don't use that tube of Remembrance."

An Mingyu was startled, raised her head slightly, her face somewhat serious:

"Are you afraid I'll forget this kindness?"

"No, I'm afraid you'll forget the path you came by. After all, in that trial, you were almost inseparable from me.

Although this is hard to say, I still want to say that home is the only place in this world that can make you linger. Even though we have both lost our homes, you now have a home again, or at least a goal that looks like a 'home.'

I believe you can handle these things well, just as I believe in the other Fated Ones."

As he said this, Cheng Shi curled his lips into the most sincere smile.

Upon hearing the words "Fated One," a complex look flashed across the Blind Woman's face, but she quickly took out the die Cheng Shi had given her and said solemnly:

"The path taken and the path to go, all are... fated!"

Fated, fated—the "fate" of 【Fate】, and also the "life" saved by the Fate Weaver.
