Chapter 778: You wouldn't be a dog he raised, 0221?

You wouldn't be a dog he raised, 0221?

The tentacles woven into a cage stalled simultaneously, and then made a creepy laughing sound.

"Hehehe—smart, worthy of you.

Of course, Weijin can also come. After all, he is me, and I am him.

We are both 【Truth】 believers, and essentially there is no difference."

"The difference is huge." Cheng Shi sneered, curled his lips in disgust, and said, "Understood, it seems you already know.

I guess this invitation wasn't sent by you, but by him, right?

Why, has Zaiyingji'er already sensed his finger on me?"

As soon as Cheng Shi's words fell, the doctor's face changed drastically. He shook his whole body and looked at Cheng Shi in disbelief, exclaiming:

"You... what did you say? Who?

Zaiyingji'er!?

Is he... here?" At this moment, Wang Mou's consistently serious tone became a bit distorted.

"Hehehe—I like dealing with smart people.

But I don't like smart people who are smarter than me.

However, he is very interested in you, so, you have this qualification."

As 0221's voice gradually became clear, the tentacles woven like a cage gradually dispersed, re-hooking and intertwining to lay before the two, turning into a staircase leading to the passage in the building.

Cheng Shi glanced at the slimy, wet steps, his eyelids jumping wildly.

Is the smart person you're talking about me?

Forget it, don't praise me. This Clown has self-knowledge. I have a little bit of cleverness, and a little bit of quick wit, but when it comes to wisdom like 【Truth】 or 【Foolishness】...

Sorry, I'm a poor student, my brain isn't that sharp.

Cheng Shi laughed at himself. He didn't choose to lift his foot, but asked another question casually: "Then do you like Wei Mu?"

This was undoubtedly a very clever probe. As the opposite of 【Truth】, the 【Foolishness】 God-Chosen Wei Mu had always been the intelligence ceiling in the cognition of most players. If 0221 also admitted this, his momentum would be weakened by three points by Cheng Shi's casual question; but if he didn't admit it, it undoubtedly represented that he had confidence in his own wisdom, and also showed that Wei Mu was not an accomplice in this 【Truth】 game, but just a person who broke the game.

And this question blocked the other party's retreat of refusing to answer, because evasion to a certain extent also represented "admitting defeat" and would also lower his own momentum.

So even the doctor frowning on the side felt that Cheng Shi had asked an extremely tricky question, but he also knew that his main body would never take the bait, and even less would he step into a pit, because even if 0221 really admitted he was inferior to Wei Mu, the other party would never dismantle his own platform in front of Cheng Shi on this occasion.

So the two heard such a response:

"Hehehe—interesting question.

Comparing things that cannot control variables is a pseudo-proposition itself. However, I am very happy to answer this question outside the academic level.

I like his shrewdness of hiding everywhere like a stinking rat, but I don't like his attitude of looking down on people with his nostrils high up.

People always have two sides. When you see him being helpful to you, Fate Weaver, have you ever thought that sometimes there is murderous intent under help?"

"..."

Cheng Shi had of course thought about it, otherwise he wouldn't have parted with Wei Mu so decisively, but the problem was he didn't expect where the other party's "murderous intent" was.

Cheng Shi didn't dwell on these, he just felt 0221's answer was interesting, so he began to be sarcastic toward the other party.

"I have some research on 【Foolishness】, knowing that He advocates 'what is seen is what is known'. So have you ever thought that when you feel Wei Mu is high and mighty looking at you with his nostrils, it's actually you putting yourself in a lower position?

You know Wei Mu has designs on your experiment, but you still have to borrow his hand to let so many players in to complete your experiment. Does this kind of 'covering your ears to steal a bell' mean you have already 'lost'?

And lost by admitting defeat!

Hmm? Am I right?"

"Heh—noisy!"

The 【Truth】 believer seemed to have been broken. He was far less calm than his Benefactor 【Truth】 when dealing with 【Deception】 at the meeting of the gods, and this also showed that he still had a long way to go before reaching true 【Truth】.

But regardless of how far 0221 was from 【Truth】, Cheng Shi was very close to "truth".

Because the sky full of tentacles lashed toward him again. If he stood there without any reaction, he would soon be able to see "truth".

And just at this moment, Wang Mou moved first. I saw this assassin who was "no different" from 0221 start at zero frames. His swift figure folded rapidly among countless tentacles, and streaks of white light condensing 【Truth】 power connected into pieces around Cheng Shi. Not long after, pure white appeared, blood splashed, and flesh broke.

He was indeed a peak player. Although Wang Mou didn't use force often, it didn't mean his combat power was weak. At this level, just relying on the brain couldn't persuade teammates to believe in 【Truth】.

Especially since he was also a dark assassination doctor, the most knowledgeable about traditional assassination among all assassin professions. He was very good at finding the enemy's weaknesses, so he could give the enemy the most precise assassination at the most suitable time.

Thus, pieces of tentacles were cut into segments and fell like rain. For a time, a circle of half-a-person-high broken meat walls was piled up on the ground around Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi was slightly surprised by the doctor's skill. It was his first time seeing the doctor take action, and he didn't expect the other party to be so neat. But no matter how neat, it was impossible to block the endless tentacle frenzy. You must know, not everyone was Big Cat.

So not long after, tentacles from all directions drowned Cheng Shi and Wang Mou.

Wang Mou's face was serious, fighting a desperate battle. The dagger in his hand flew like a butterfly and never stopped. Cheng Shi, on the other hand, from the beginning of the attack, neither blocked nor assisted, just standing there, seeming to be waiting for the tentacles to attack him.

The tentacles that surged like a tide didn't miss the opportunity either. They bypassed Wang Mou and finally came to Cheng Shi. One by one, tentacles, either as needle tips or as thorn whips, were about to roar toward Cheng Shi together. But at this moment, at the moment when all tentacles were about to touch Cheng Shi's skin, the entire space stagnated.

Of course, as an Other-Day Thief, Cheng Shi didn't use any skills this time. He just looked at everything in front of him with a smile on his lips, until the endless tentacles in front of him stopped attacking on their own.

Correct, there was no participation of 【Time】 power in the stagnation of the scene; it was the tentacles controlled by 0221 that stopped on their own.

Seeing this scene, the smile on Cheng Shi's lips became even stronger.

"Why, do you feel I can't die yet, and want to squeeze more desire and emotion out?

It's not me saying it, but you look greedier than me."

Cheng Shi sneered, looking at the tentacle thorn closest to his pupils, suddenly exerted force, and threw his head forward without warning.

Although the momentum was arrogant, the action was no different from suicide.

But unexpectedly, with his forward pounce, the tentacles in front of him all shrank back as if electrocuted, avoiding Cheng Shi's collision, barely "saving" the Clown's life.

Seeing that the other party really didn't dare to move him, Cheng Shi laughed loudly with full sarcasm.

"I thought you and Zaiyingji'er would be in a cooperative relationship, but now it seems, heh—

I overestimated you.

You wouldn't be a dog he raised, 0221?" ===== CHAPTER 779 =====
