Chapter 754

Shocking Intelligence from Long Wang

Just one second after Zhen Xin hung up, the phone rang again. Cheng Shi immediately realized that the other party didn't do it on purpose, it was probably an accidental touch, so he hurriedly answered, and the first sentence was:

"Are you serious?"

The other end of the phone fell silent. Not long after, a familiar voice laughed and said:

"Seems like another interesting memory. Who were you talking to on the phone just now, Cheng Shi?"

Long Wang?

Cheng Shi was stunned. He blinked and shook his head with a smile: "No one. But your call came just in time. I was just about to look for you, but you called first."

Li Jingming wasn't surprised that Cheng Shi wanted to look for him, because he knew that this clown was attempting to find that pair of Ears of Secret Peeping to get close to that so-called Lord 【Foolish Play】.

And this intelligence was brought by him, so the reason the other party was looking for him was nothing more than wanting to reconfirm the accuracy of this news.

But he didn't call Cheng Shi today for this, but for another interesting thing.

"I don't know if Honglin has told you, but I once obtained a small piece of memory about 0221. Of course, not from him himself, but from one of his slices.

He has been fishing for information about the trial experiences of various slices through exchanges after the trials ended, and this slice seemed to realize this, so he silently recorded all this during the exchanges.

I accidentally flipped through the memory of this slice, and thus opened a 'door to the world of 【Truth】.'"

Long Wang's so-called "opening the door to the world of 【Truth】" must be a joke, but what he said about finding the slice's memory is probably true.

It's just that Cheng Shi can only be certain that "finding the memory" is true, as for whether that memory is true...

It's really hard to say.

Don't forget, Cheng Shi himself made a self-hypnosis trap to fight against 【Memory】 believers, so who knows if the smarter 【Truth】 believers have a fake memory?

After all, the memory of a slice is just shaped by the person who created the slice.

But Cheng Shi didn't remind Long Wang of this. With Long Wang's score, he probably didn't need reminding.

Compared to the truth of this memory, he was more curious about Long Wang's motive for telling him this.

Information sharing within the Clown?

Impossible.

From Long Wang joining the Clown, there was still an initiation fee in between. Even if Cheng Shi forgot everything, he couldn't forget the initiation fee the other party promised at the beginning.

So, what does Long Wang want to do?

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows, suppressed his curiosity, didn't speak, and continued to listen.

"0221 is very interesting. He is a pure 【Truth】 believer..."

Just as Long Wang said this, Cheng Shi was stunned and suddenly added: "A lunatic?"

"Not bad, but purer than a lunatic. He has dabbled in every experiment in the history of the Tower of Reason and has unique insights into each one.

Speaking of which, it's interesting. The reason why the slice I know guessed his identity as a slice was because he was once shocked by the extensive knowledge of this 【Truth】 neighbor he communicated with.

It was precisely because he gave birth to an inferiority complex of a firefly compared to the bright moon that he began to suspect whether the other party was the God's Chosen of 【Truth】. And as long as the seed of suspicion was planted, all the details of the subsequent exchanges became the key for him to peel the cocoon.

Of course, I said so much not because I am interested in 0221 as a person—I am indeed interested in him—but what interests me more are the experiments he holds."

Cheng Shi was stunned, thinking that Long Wang had heard the wind from somewhere just after the trial ended. He wouldn't know that he had several experimental manuscripts in his hands, would he?

"So, you want to get 0221's experimental manuscripts?"

"Manuscripts?

No, I don't need knowledge, what I need is memory.

What I am interested in is the memory carried in those experiments, the people and things of the Tower of Reason that disappeared in history. I am not that interested in those manuscripts."

"..."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi understood.

You are not interested, but you keep mentioning it, so who do you think will be interested?

Long Wang, oh Long Wang, you want to use these experimental manuscripts to fish for me?

You want to pull me to rob 0221?

Then you take away the memory, and the manuscripts are my reward and prize?

Hiss—

It's not impossible, but...

"Do you have a plan?"

Hearing this, Long Wang smiled.

"Smart, worthy of you.

No plan, just feel that there will be an opportunity recently, so I will pay this matter to you as a deposit. In this way, remember that there is still a clown waiting for your news to feed back after you find the opportunity."

"Heh, talk about the clown after you pay the initiation fee. But Long Wang, why do you feel there will be an opportunity recently?"

"Because I heard that the recent large-scale disappearance of players seems to be related to 0221."

"!!!"

Cheng Shi was stunned. He turned to look at the roof next door, remembered his neighbor who had disappeared for a long time, and thought, could Xie Yang have been caught by 0221?

Why did he catch people, to do experiments?

"Experiments?"

He asked this question uncertainly, and Long Wang's answer was even more earth-shattering.

"Yes, it's experiments.

Based on the clues in the various memories I have collected recently, 0221 has been extremely interested in a failed experiment recently, and you should have heard of this experiment, that is the Star Dagger hosted by Zain Gil, the greatest scholar of the Creation Alchemy Department."

"Star Dagger!?" Cheng Shi was stunned. Such a coincidence?

"You really know."

These disappeared players were all wrapped away by special power at the moment the trial ended. They didn't return, but the corresponding space merger prayer didn't take effect either, which means they didn't die.

But one after another, many disappeared players still died. I initially thought that the trial had undergone new changes, but after tracking and investigating for a period of time recently, I found that these changes seem to be related to that 0221."

Hearing this, an absurd thought suddenly rose in Cheng Shi's mind. He blinked and said in disbelief:

"You mean, 0221 is using players to do the Star Dagger experiment!?"

"In reality?"

"Replicating this experiment of stealing the authority of the gods!?"

"Not bad." Long Wang's voice was a bit solemn. "You and I both understand the means of 【Truth】. This is not impossible."

"But this is too crazy..." Cheng Shi muttered to himself.

"The road to 【Truth】 is crazy to begin with."

Cheng Shi fell silent, but soon he thought: Bad, Xie Yang was really caught as experimental consumable!

Those disappeared players are most likely consumables!

But even so, where did 0221 get so much divinity?

You know, the reason why the Star Dagger could be carried out was because the Tower of Reason used the power of the country to create two pseudo-gods, and then let Zain Gil, the host of the experiment, enter the game himself to act as a thief stealing authority.

Not only that, the Scholarly Chair Committee even used the 【Truth Instrument】 to open up a space in the void, specifically for accommodating the experimental base of Yuanmu Town.

Wait!

Yuanmu Town?

Cheng Shi was stunned and suddenly thought of where the inexplicable sense of familiarity at the Gate of Falling Down came from. Although the architectural style there couldn't be said to be the same, those stowaways who didn't belong to the small town and those speculators who were greedy for profit, didn't they look like the travelers in Yuanmu Town who didn't ask about the origin and only knew how to enjoy themselves?

And Cheng Shi remembered Zhen Yi saying that the experimental town of the Star Dagger was found near the Abyss Volcano, so... was the prototype of Yuanmu Town perhaps a subterranean town similar to the Gate of Falling Down?

It's not impossible. Alad also said that the Tower of Reason had the means to destroy subterranean towns, but the price was high. And now it seems that the destruction he spoke of was perhaps the "uprooting" when Yuanmu Town was selected back then.

It's just that this price was not unacceptable for the divinity stealing experiment that the Tower of Reason wanted to do.

However, compared to the origin of Yuanmu Town, there was one more thing that Cheng Shi was concerned about, and that was that Zain Gil ran away just at this juncture!

Is this a coincidence?

Or is 0221's experiment prepared for Zain Gil who escaped?

This lunatic in history met a confidant in reality, so the two hit it off and moved the Star Dagger out of the Continent of Hope!?

Cheng Shi was frightened by his own absurd brain hole. He held the phone tightly, his brows furrowed.

The believers of 【Truth】 are really crazy!
