The explosive statement of Wei Mu

Cheng Shi was clearly bluffing the other party, but the content of the bluff was indeed a reasonable guess.

0221 borrowed Zainjier's hand to complete the synthesis of divinity, which counts as a form of opportunism, but Wei Mu also completed this synthesis, so is his success also opportunism?

Is it possible that the other party also has a finger of Zainjier?

Cheng Shi was very puzzled by this and specifically paid attention to it when confronting Zainjier.

He noticed that when Zainjier merged into 0221, 0221's fingers indeed decreased by two due to the influence of the descent, which shows that Zainjier only lost two fingers, and Wei Mu did not obtain this rather absurd prop.

And out of caution, Cheng Shi also specifically paid attention to 0221's toes during the fusion, confirming that the other party had all ten toes, ruling out another unlikely possibility.

But in this way, the method by which Wei Mu could synthesize divinity became even more curious; how did the other party, a mere mortal body, accomplish this feat?

Does he possess other props similar to Zainjier's limbs?

Possible, but this doesn't seem like something Wei Mu would do.

How could someone who likes to watch the foolish acts of others embrace so-called foolish acts?

Before, Cheng Shi had no clue, until he heard about the container from Hu Xuan's mouth, and only then did he have a slight conjecture in his heart.

Later, when he encountered Wei Mu paying respects to the three messengers face-to-face without being humble or arrogant, a bold speculation emerged in his heart:

Is it possible that the other party possesses a container?

You must know that even people like Hu Wei and Long Jing, when encountering messengers, cannot maintain such a calm attitude; even if their temperament is steady, they couldn't be like the current Wei Mu, who was only polite in his tone of voice.

So what is the other party's confidence?

Just because he is the most intelligent among the players?

No, it absolutely cannot be like this. Intelligence is only useful when the difference in strength is not large and identities are equal; it is not so useful when the gap in strength and identity is so large that one needs to look up.

The other party's posture must be one of fearless confidence, but what could this "confidence" be? Cheng Shi made a guess about this, but dared not believe it, so he bluffed the other party.

Of course, he performed very naturally, even Wei Mu was fooled by him.

"Interesting, you even know that a container cannot be seen by outsiders. However, I am different from others. Although I have lost some strength and memory, many things under this universe are hard to hide from my eyes.

Even if I haven't retrieved my true eyes, the 'vision' I have left tells me that your experience is very unusual.

Tell me, tell me how your container came about."

The whole room fell silent.

Afuluosi's gaze narrowed slightly, showing full interest in Wei Mu, this mortal; Hu Xuan chuckled without a word, lowering her head to hide the sharp light flashing in her eyes; as for the puppet... it stood up again, standing on the tabletop, and bowed slightly toward Cheng Shi's direction.

"I have never doubted the strength of 【Deception】. Today, you have confirmed one point to me again.

However, Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi, before telling this story, I have another question."

"Heh." Cheng Shi tapped the tabletop casually, shaking his head and laughing, "You are not qualified to ask extra questions. The reason you can appear here is because the three of us happen to have the mood to talk today, and you also have some involvement in this Zainjier matter.

Before my curiosity is exhausted, you still have a chance to fight for staying.

But once I lose interest in you, tsk, then no one will say a word of apology for you losing a puppet body."

"..."

The puppet fell silent. It was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the master of this place, Afuluosi. Afuluosi understood its meaning and chuckled:

"My brother is right. Being evasive is not a praiseworthy way to treat guests.

It's useless for you to look at me. The master here now is my brother Envoy Envoy Yu Xi. I am just a prisoner, and He has already become the guard of that Warden.

If He loses interest in you, then sorry, in order to please the guard, I have to find a way to invite you to leave this place."

"..."

The puppet's silence continued. Wei Mu felt heavy pressure from these two. He indeed had confidence, but the problem was that his confidence came from his understanding of certain things, and now, even if he was certain he understood Afuluosi, he dared not say he understood this Envoy Envoy Yu Xi.

Because he had never heard of this name, and didn't even know that 【Deception】 actually had another messenger!

Think about it, a messenger of 【Deception】, a subordinate god who has reached the peak in deception and craftiness, how could He be so easy to deal with?

So after thinking for a moment, Wei Mu chose to cooperate.

That's right, it's cooperation, not compromise. He felt he needed to stay here, stay at this long table that accommodated three messengers, and listen to them discuss some things about this game and the universe from different perspectives.

"Please forgive my overstepping, I understand, I will fight for the chance to stay."

The puppet sat back on the tabletop stiffly, lowered its head, and seemed to have entered some kind of confession mode.

Cheng Shi was secretly happy, his mouth curled with a smile as he listened intently. He could finally hear some interesting things from Wei Mu's mouth, but what he didn't expect was that the other party's first sentence almost made his brain crash.

"My container comes from my benefactor 【Stupidity】. When He summoned me, I despised His incompetence and demanded His authority. Unfortunately, He had no authority, so I only obtained such a container."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Silence is the breeze of Duorge'de today.

This silence came too suddenly, so much so that the three people present deeply realized a truth, which is that 【Stupidity】 is worthy of eventually heading toward 【Silence】.

Not brother, do you know what you are saying?

"Despised His incompetence", "demanded His authority", "He had no authority", "only obtained a container"...

Every one of these four sentences is explosive enough if taken out individually. How did you combine them together!?

Ah?

You 【Stupidity】... why do you always give people a sense of high-dimensional abstract madness?

This was the first time Hu Xuan lost her smile at the long table. Her fists under the table were clenched tightly, as if only in this way could she control her facial expression that was almost out of control.

Afuluosi was stunned. He widened his eyes, his whole body exuding a terrifying 【Filth and Corruption】 aura, looking at the puppet in disbelief, murmuring and repeating:

"He, has no authority? How could He have no authority? Where is His authority?"

"Heh, squandered away."

It wasn't Wei Mu who answered Afuluosi, but Cheng Shi.

Seeing this matter suddenly burst out, the sharp clown seized the opportunity and put on a big show.

I saw Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi chuckle, playing with the wine glass in his hand, shaking it constantly without letting the wine spill over the edge, but a moment later his hand suddenly shook, spilling all the wine in the cup, and then looking at the stain on the tablecloth, he smiled:

"Look, that's how it was squandered away."
