Chapter 753

Unexpected Call

"The user you dialed is temporarily unavailable to answer, please leave a message after the beep..."

"... I am Seeing Zhen Xin."

Cheng Shi was just about to hang up the phone, but after hearing this name, the corner of his eye twitched, and he said: "Beep."

"..."

The other side paused, but soon left a message seriously:

"Did she... leave any words?"

Hearing this sentence, Cheng Shi was 90% sure that the other party was Seeing Zhen Xin. After all, the feelings between her and the Blind Woman couldn't be fake. But even if there was a 1% possibility, Cheng Shi had to guard against becoming a clown.

Being played around by the mouth and tongue was already embarrassing enough; if he were to be teased again by some unlucky thing over the phone, today would become a dark history that the clown could never erase.

So Cheng Shi pondered for a moment and tentatively responded.

"Yes, but it requires a password."

Password?

Seeing Zhen Xin on the other end of the phone frowned, but after thinking for only a few seconds, she realized what this password was. This inexplicable sense of absurdity even diluted her sadness for a moment, making her laugh out loud, "Okay, do you want the new password or the old password?"

"Both!" A flash of light shone in Cheng Shi's eyes, and he held his breath, fearing he would miss any word the other party said.

"There are too many old passwords to say them all. Let's talk about what you are most interested in.

I know who you are worried about, but no need to worry, things are going smoothly, we found Lucia.

Hu Xuan is a good teammate, at least trustworthy when the goals are consistent. She wanted to persuade Lucia to return to the side of 【Birth】, but...

【Holy Sound of Birth】 doesn't think that crowding around the Benefactor in the temple is piety, so She refused Hu Xuan's request and stayed in the history of the Continent of Hope.

Of course, She has already awakened, which means She can leave that period of history at any time, but I feel She seems to be waiting for someone.

【Birth】 has found another one of Her children, and I, as a member who made a negligible contribution on this road of searching, was also summoned after the trial. As for the content of the summons..."

Summoned by 【Birth】...

Cheng Shi's mouth twitched. He could imagine the scene, but he couldn't imagine what 【Birth】 said.

In the entire 【Life】 journey, this is the prelude to 【Life】 that he doesn't know much about, so he is extremely curious about the content of Seeing Zhen Xin's audience.

"What did She say? You didn't merge 【Birth】, did you?"

Seeing Zhen Xin chuckled: "This is not part of the password. If you want to know, trade it with something you know."

"?" Cheng Shi was stunned, then laughed, "What a head of the History School, really unwilling to suffer any loss. Aren't you afraid that I will hang up the phone and let you never know what the Blind Woman said?"

"So, she really left words."

"...?"

Bad, became a clown.

Cheng Shi's eyelids jumped wildly. He originally thought that based on Seeing Zhen Xin's intelligence and her feelings for the Blind Woman, she must have been certain that the Blind Woman left something behind, which is why she called him. But he didn't expect the other party to be testing him too.

But testing is good. Since it's a test, it means Seeing Zhen Xin is also not sure about the Blind Woman's attitude, and this also means that their friendship as best friends is indeed not as completely unreserved as he thought.

The Blind Woman is right; they are first independent individuals, and then best friends who talk about everything.

And this is undoubtedly beneficial to him in the current situation where the Blind Woman has been replaced.

So Cheng Shi didn't dwell on being tested, but instead responded generously.

"She did leave words, and only I know them.

Don't worry, I don't like to lie like some people. Although I don't know much about you, I still respect this sincere friendship between best friends very much. As long as your password matches, I will tell you what the Blind Woman left behind.

Actually, even if you didn't call, I would have said it when we met next time, but since you are in a hurry to know, 'advanced on-demand' requires payment; this is the truth of the universe.

So continue, tell me the new password."

"..." The other end of the phone fell silent again. The other side muttered something, and Cheng Shi only vaguely heard a few words like "this person," "Zhen Yi," "very similar," and then harvested a big piece of news he didn't dare to think about in this unexpected call.

"First-hand news that has not yet been decrypted within the school: the Star Dagger experiment was interrupted, Zain Gil... ran away."

"!!!???"

Cheng Shi was stunned. How could these words sound so familiar, but why did they suddenly feel so strange when combined?

"What do you mean ran away?" Cheng Shi was dumbfounded, his brain unable to turn around.

"Disappeared. He had already stolen enough pseudo-god divinity. No one knows how he 'privately hid' so much divinity under the eyes of the Scholarly Chair Committee, but he did it.

Coupled with the body of the Doomsday Hanged Man honed in the confrontation of divinity over countless years, he... perhaps has become Him.

A pseudo-god, no, it should be said to be a wild god pieced together from fragmented divinity.

Therefore, during a certain 'consumable' replacement of the Star Dagger, He seized the opportunity and ran away. All the experimental personnel who performed the consumable replacement died on the spot, and it even included a... member of the Scholarly Chair Committee.

I am not simply telling a piece of erased history by saying this, but reminding you that Hu Xuan was probably His first plan to escape, but under the interference of some people, He failed.

So be careful, never underestimate the ambition and revenge of a great scholar."

"..."

Although Seeing Zhen Xin could lie unscrupulously, Cheng Shi still believed this so-called "new password," because it was too consistent with his understanding of Zain Gil. He, no, He was originally such a crazy "person"!

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi took out the severed finger of Zain Gil from his portable space.

Not bad, this key prop for the divinity refining experiment fell into his hands. Originally, Cheng Shi didn't want this thing after the experiment ended. He knew this thing was good, but the cause and effect of this thing was too great... he was afraid that he would be involved in some inexplicable accident again.

It just so happened that the Fire Keeper needed divinity, so he planned to leave this thing to them. But at that time, Qin Xin was lying on the ground, and the Blind Woman didn't accept it. She only copied a copy of the doctor's experimental manuscript and then handed all the divinity and this finger to Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi... felt embarrassed. After weighing it for a long time, he still accepted the finger. As a return, he packed all the 【Decay】 divinity stripped from the 【Dementia】 believers and stuffed it to the Fire Keeper.

He knew that 【Decay】 no longer cared about these, so this divinity, which could almost be said to be "free," was the best help for the Fire Keeper.

Now hearing this news, Cheng Shi's face was extremely ugly. This thing shouldn't have been wanted...

It hadn't even been warmed up in his hands, and it started to react.

To be fair, Zain Gil's jailbreak was okay for him. After all, he used the rules of the game at the time. Furthermore, the account of His first failure and the account of the broken finger couldn't be counted on his head no matter how he calculated it.

But Hu Xuan... this warrior who asked 【Eternal Sun】 for a child in front of Him, was afraid she would have trouble.

However, with her current status, 【Birth】 probably wouldn't let a pseudo-god take away Her child, right?

For a time, Cheng Shi fell into deep thought, and the other side of the phone didn't rush to urge anything. It wasn't until Cheng Shi made some noise because he changed his posture that Seeing Zhen Xin finally spoke again.

"The password is finished, what about my answer?"

Cheng Shi didn't hide anything this time. The other party's attitude was very sincere, or rather, in this call, Cheng Shi finally felt the objectivity of the evaluation that Big Cat once gave Seeing Zhen Xin.

"She is a person who is very good at cooperation."

Indeed, leaving aside her sister, Seeing Zhen Xin seems to be easier to communicate with than other liars. Of course, it's limited; after all, she is essentially a liar too.

Recalling the secret confrontation in the scene of the Mediocre Society, Cheng Shi shook his head and laughed.

Don't think about anything else, just honestly treat the other party as an information mine.

And he is the tireless miner, a miner with a pickaxe. Oh, right, the pickaxe is broken, need to get a spare one.

Cheng Shi let his imagination run wild for a few seconds and told Seeing Zhen Xin what the Blind Woman left behind. It was only a few words, very short, and it seemed a bit unfair to trade for so many "passwords."

But Seeing Zhen Xin didn't think so. Her tone changed significantly, and there was even a slight tremor that she couldn't suppress.

The voice on the other end of the phone disappeared for a while, and then sounded again shortly after.

"Thank you."

This "thank you" was full of sincerity, so much so that Cheng Shi was slightly stunned and uncomfortable.

He wasn't used to having real feelings with a liar over the phone, so he smiled and adjusted the atmosphere:

"Give me something practical."

"Okay."

"?"

Cheng Shi was stunned again and wanted to say something else, but the other side had already hung up the phone.

No, just hung up?

So is this practical thing coming or not?
