Chapter 797

【Stupidity】!

To be fair, Wei Mu only knew that his benefactor had lost His authority, but didn't know how it was lost.

Now it seems that sitting at this long table can indeed increase one's knowledge. At least this messenger of 【Deception】 seems to know how his benefactor squandered away His authority.

But Wei Mu dared not ask. He perceived the "rules" here, which is that he can listen to what others say, but he is not qualified to ask about what he doesn't understand.

So the puppet remained silent and continued to lower its head, waiting for the double-messenger opposite to become his mouthpiece and ask how his benefactor squandered away His authority.

Sure enough, Afuluosi was too curious. He lunged at the tabletop, his eyes staring straight at Cheng Shi, the desire in those eyes so thick it was almost dripping water.

Don't worry about what kind of desire it is, anyway, it's desire.

Cheng Shi's eyelids twitched, he straightened his back and leaned against the back of the chair, distancing the two as much as possible, and then smiled mysteriously:

"Don't ask me, I don't know if you ask me, and I dare not say even if I know."

This sentence was purely made up. Cheng Shi did have a guess in his heart, but before verifying it, he dared not blabber about 【Stupidity】 in private, especially when there were 【Stupidity】 believers present, so he had to throw this answer to the unknown.

But the speaker has no intention, the listener has intention. Hearing this response, Afuluosi immediately restrained his expression and sat up straight. A trace of awe flashed in his eyes, and he smiled slightly stiffly:

"Related to... 【*Him】?"

Cheng Shi didn't expect Afuluosi to be able to connect this too. He nodded with a wry smile: "Yes."

"Very good, my brother, it seems that the speed at which you retrieve your memory is much faster than I imagined, and your understanding of 【*Him】 has also begun to accelerate."

"This cannot be without your help, Afuluosi, I will always remember this friendship."

As soon as the words fell, the bright moon rose into the sky.

This sudden transformation made the puppet across the long table stunned. It opened and closed its mouth a few times, and finally chose silence.

It's nothing novel either. Don't the nobles of the Continent of Hope always like to do some tricks when eating? As a messenger born from the Continent of Hope, Afuluosi's behavior is not worth criticizing.

However, what kind of existence is the so-called 【*Him】 in their mouths?

Wei Mu was even more curious, and just at this moment, Cheng Shi coughed twice, looked away, and looked at the puppet again.

"I thought you were a one-in-a-million genius, but I didn't expect that the divinity you synthesized all dripped from the container.

Of course, being able to control the type of faith to drip into the divinity you need, this operation is also genius, but it's still slightly inferior to doing it yourself.

However, what makes me curious is, as a player, where did you get the faith?

I don't believe that white-eyed benefactor of yours would reward you with all His faith; that is the foundation of the gods."

This sentence was asked on behalf of Hu Xuan. Cheng Shi was using the information obtained from Hu Xuan's mouth to extract Wei Mu's "achievements". Wei Mu didn't doubt it either; after all, it is too normal for a messenger to know the function of a container. So, in order for the subsequent communication to be smoother, the puppet explained in a matter-of-fact way:

"Personal foolish opinion, throwing a brick to attract jade.

I don't know what faith is in your eyes, I only know that in reality's observation, faith is nothing more than life's pursuit of a certain thought or will.

All living beings pray for equality, so 【Order】 descends; all living beings crave true knowledge, so 【Truth】 appears in the world; all living beings express themselves, and then 【War】 runs rampant.

【Civilization】 is like this, and 【Chaos】 is the same.

So I often think, if I also become something that all living beings pursue, then whether their recognition of me can also be considered a kind of faith?

So I started to act toward this goal and became the first on the road to godhood. And when I spread the reputation of being a believer of 【Stupidity】, people started... flattering me.

Flattery is not goodwill, but what I didn't expect is that even flattery is a kind of recognition, and this kind of recognition is exactly the 'faith' I seek!

It's just that the impurities in this 'faith' are too many, and the dripped divinity is unusable.

But as long as there are materials, no matter how many impurities there are, there is nothing that cannot be purified by experiments. So, in this way, I mastered the method of dripping divinity and studied it for a long time.

It's just that I only recently showed these synthesized divinities to others through the opportunity of the 0221 experiment.

In this way, 0221 became a genius who discovered the method of synthesizing divinity, while I just deconstructed his technology and replicated his means. Not only will I not become a target of public criticism, but I can also quietly hide behind the scenes, both able to transport divinity outward and steadily earn more 'flattery'.

This is the way I obtained faith. Lord Foolish Play, do you think these things have inspired you?"

"..."

Yes, very much so. Not only is there inspiration, but it also made me feel a kind of self-contempt that makes me feel ashamed.

Of course, this is not what the clown thinks, but what Hu Xuan thinks.

The clown also thinks so, but he forced himself not to think about it, but looked at Hu Xuan happily.

This believer of 【Birth】 rarely looked away from Cheng Shi, her expression slightly stagnant, silently recording everything in her heart.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi was even happier, but there was one more thing he was puzzled about. According to what Wei Mu said, the other party only explained his research on faith, but hadn't said why he obtained this container so early.

So is this another player who, like the blind woman, "met a god" at a very early stage?

Why do you all have miraculous encounters?

Perhaps seeing everyone's confusion, or perhaps actively sharing his own experience to get the qualification to stay here, in short, before Cheng Shi thought about how to ask, the puppet explained the part that everyone was confused about clearly.

"I was indeed summoned by my benefactor very early, so early that when I first realized that to reach the top of this game, I must first study faith, He summoned me.

At that time, I was addicted to the strategy of 【Faith Game】 and couldn't extricate myself. After seeing my benefactor, I would naturally ask the most concerned question.

So when He questioned me if I knew whether my foolish acts had an answer, I asked Him back:

Since You are so wise, why can You still let the other fifteen gods sit on equal footing with You?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Brilliant!

You god-chosen ones are really one more fierce than the other.

I thought the blind woman was reckless enough because she wasn't afraid of death, and after all, she didn't know if her benefactor would die according to the prophecy, but looking at you, Wei Mu, you are really not afraid of death.

"Interesting." Cheng Shi shook his head and laughed, "It seems that you understood your benefactor's temperament at that time and knew that He wouldn't punish you for this."

"Yes, when I started to study the meaning of faith, I found that the more I fit His will, the more likely I am to get close to Him, so I dared to ask that question."

"What did your benefactor say?"

"He said: Becoming a god is nothing more than a foolish act.

I said since that's the case, why do You still personally perform a foolish act?

He said: If I don't act foolishly first, how can I know that this is a foolish act? Even if this is a foolish act, then I am the first fool in this universe, and the first one to know that this is a fool."

"!!!"

Hearing this, Cheng Shi's heart was shocked, his eyes full of emotion.

This is 【Stupidity】!

Even in practicing foolish acts, He must be the first.

However, this is not what shocked Cheng Shi the most. What shocked him the most was that these words seemed to indicate that 【Stupidity】 had already known something!

Could it be that He already knew about the sliced universe, so He would ask everyone He met, "Do you think your foolish acts will have an answer?"

Cheng Shi frowned, sharp light flashing in his eyes.

It's not impossible. Don't forget, His authority is gone, so is there a possibility that 【Stupidity】 lost His authority in the process of discerning this matter?

No, it might not even be lost. Perhaps it was the 【Convention】 pushed by the Fun God that gave 【Stupidity】 the confidence to let go and fight, so He dared to use this as a price to investigate and study this matter.

After all, He told Brother Mouth that He had paid a price.

And the news at hand might mean that the disappearance of authority might have already been exchanged for this answer.

This answer is:

The gods and the current universe are nothing more than a microcosm of another more magnificent slicing experiment.
