Chapter 800: First Proactive Audience: [Birth]
First Proactive Audience: 【Birth】
Afuluosi and Hu Xuan were both stunned, especially Hu Xuan.
Afuluosi was a prisoner after all. Even if He had already established contact with His patron, there was a difference between the status of a "Prince in the Cold Palace" and a "Princess before the Hall."
Therefore, Cheng Shi's words were less directed at the two 【Birth】 believers and more like using this pretext to ask Hu Xuan.
He only considered that if he asked Hu Xuan about this in private, the other party would definitely agree to try, which would lose the opportunity to demand chips from Afuluosi's hands. But right now, as long as Afuluosi wanted a response from His patron, He had to handle Hu Xuan first, letting this little sister of 【Birth】 help Him fight for such an opportunity.
However, having said that, Cheng Shi did not say this to demand chips or help Hu Xuan; he truly wanted an audience with 【Birth】.
This matter was not a whim; he had been planning it for some time.
Up to now, Cheng Shi's understanding of 【Origin】 was limited to Afuluosi's descriptions and 【Fate】's warnings. Aside from the impression that this "true creator" could not be thought about too much, he had almost no cognition of Him.
And everything he knew right now pointed the "experimenter" of this entire sliced universe experiment to that 【*Him】, so Cheng Shi had always wanted to know what kind of existence 【*He】 was in the eyes of the gods.
Asking the two 【Nihility】 figures this question would definitely not yield an answer. Coincidentally, the other two patrons after fusion were busier than the last.
As for that Lord on the bone throne... He seemed to have not contacted him for a while. He didn't know if it was because he was angry that Old Zhang was tricked away by the God of Fun...
In short, after countless audiences with gods, Cheng Shi actually hadn't found anyone he could ask this question.
So after thinking it over, he set his sights on 【Birth】.
And the reason he aimed at 【Birth】 was because in Cheng Shi's cognition, only this god could have enough of a connection with himself.
First, 【Birth】 was a god of the 【Life】 path, and of the other two of the 【Life】 path, one's authority after death was being exercised by his friend, and he also had a part shared within his own body; the other was that Lord, the boss who had always taken care of him.
With this layer of relationship, Cheng Shi thought that no matter what, the other party shouldn't make things too difficult for him.
Secondly, although 【Birth】 was also a pro-approach faction in Afuluosi's mouth, His pace of approaching 【Origin】 didn't seem aggressive.
【Decay】 was decaying itself to beg for mercy, 【Truth】 was frantically synthesizing to seek truth, 【Memory】 was defending its own collection hall to prevent memories from being tainted—these were the "outstanding representatives" of the pro-approach faction. But looking at 【Birth】... what had He done?
Aside from giving birth to children and looking for children, He had done nothing.
It even went so far that His believers... Cheng Shi still hadn't heard of a single player who had undergone faith fusion.
This situation didn't look like approaching at all, but rather like keeping oneself safe.
Finally, Cheng Shi still remembered that the reason Zayin Ji'er's experiment chose the divinity of 【Birth】 and 【Defilement】 as the experimental template was because the former was stable and the latter was sluggish.
So after synthesizing countless considerations, Cheng Shi decided to have an audience with 【Birth】 to see if he could ask for some news about 【Origin】 from His mouth.
Even if he couldn't ask, meeting face-to-face would be good, at least to feel His true will at close range, so he could more accurately categorize Him in the god camp.
Of course, doing so was risky. No one knew if 【Birth】 would therefore judge Cheng Shi with the crime of blasphemy.
But Cheng Shi considered that he had the protection of four patrons above his head right now. Even if he couldn't ask anything, he wouldn't die in front of 【Birth】, right?
Besides, with the God of Fun's planning, if there was truly a problem with this move, He wouldn't just let him die.
After all, even this "unique" pro-fear faction had started fusing with the pro-approach faction's backbone 【Truth】. With the patrons' testing methods being so aggressive right now, what was wrong with him taking a bigger step?
If he missed this opportunity, he might not have such a good excuse in the future!
Therefore, Cheng Shi took the opportunity to state this request. However, this was not only a bold attempt, but also a test of the two 【Nihility】 patrons.
He wanted to test whether the God of Fun cared at all about other gods knowing about the sliced universe, and also wanted to test whether 【Fate】 had already learned of his fate in other sliced universes from past clues.
"Of course I'm serious. I said I can try to lobby, but the premise is that you must have the courage to recommend me to Him."
Seeing that Cheng Shi's tone didn't seem like a joke, Hu Xuan realized something, nodded, and disappeared from the table.
Cheng Shi's eyelid twitched, thinking to himself, *Big sister, you didn't have to be so anxious; I haven't demanded anything from Afuluosi yet. * But before he could open his mouth, the next second, he also disappeared.
He was pulled directly out of Duo'ergede by an irresistible force.
"???"
For a time, only Afuluosi and the puppet Wei Mu remained on the long table, looking at each other. A moment later, Afuluosi laughed loudly:
"My brother probably won't lie to me. In that case, in this brand-new era, can I finally get what I wish for?"
The puppet didn't dare to chime in casually, but after pondering for a moment, he decided to seize this opportunity to ask what an era was, and what the falling curtain of an era was.
Facing this familiar question, Afuluosi laughed happily.
"Since you are so thirsty for knowledge, then Mr. Puppet, why don't we make a deal?"
"You heard it just now; my brother wants to leave enough of a retreat for the upcoming nihility, so cooperate with me to study these 【Truth】 gadgets well, and then hand over your research completely to him.
As a reward, I will tell you a little something you are interested in."
"Lord Afuluosi, I appreciate your generosity, but this has no benefit for you."
"I don't need benefits; I am just a prisoner.
It was my brother who brought me to see this era and gave me many surprises, so it's time for me to give him some surprises."
The puppet was startled and hung his head: "Although this sounds like the words of a petty person, my reason tells me that the words of a messenger of 【Deception】 may not necessarily be true."
"You are indeed a petty person." Afuluosi hummed with a laugh, pointed at Wei Mu, and said, "At least in size, you are much smaller than a normal person.
Remember, when someone is willing to lie to you, it means you are still useful.
Perhaps you don't deeply understand this sentence now, but for me, rather than being forgotten by countless eras in this cage of 【Time】, the feeling of being lied to is actually not bad.
Besides, how do you know he isn't indulging the desire for deception in his heart, thereby using this to approach 【Gate of Joy】 Afuluosi?"
"......" Hearing this, Wei Mu knew he should shut up.
"Alright, get moving. I am not proficient in those 【Truth】 things, so how to let the blasphemer take the first step of this experiment in Duo'ergede still requires your help.
I hope that the next time I see my brother, we can let Duo'ergede undergo some new changes.
Oh, right, the newly built Court of Judgment might as well be called...
Honest Court of Judgment. I hope this scholar can tell fewer lies and commit less fraud in the process of atonement."
The puppet's eyes stalled; he always felt that this sentence wasn't talking about Zayin Ji'er, but was pointing at him.
On the other side, in the endless void, 【Birth】's 【Divine Pillar】 wantonly slapped the surrounding space, rubbing against it to emit babble that made one's head dizzy.
"What—is—the—reason—for—seeing—Me—"
Cheng Shi stood bowing, his face awkward.
*No, so the silent baby bell is useless here? *
*The direction is right, but my current situation is a bit off. * Cheng Shi suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart, put on a standard audience smile, looked up, and said "devoutly":
"Praise......"
"Speak—directly—"
"......"
*You speak slower than that Lord, but your temper is strangely impatient. * ===== CHAPTER 801 =====
