Chapter 915: Your Piety Is My Answer

Your Piety Is My Answer

Whether you're right or not has nothing to do with me.

I just want to eat melons, not understand how your School of History manipulates history.

Cheng Shi curled his lips, put away the dice, and continued walking forward.

Seeing that this gossip didn't move Cheng Shi, Sun Miao followed quickly, typing while walking: "Fine, I admit I'm very interested in the 【Order】 that has a problem. So what kind of information can make you, Fate Weaver, open your golden mouth and solve my confusion?"

Cheng Shi ignored the other party's question and instead asked:

"Are you sure we are going in this direction?"

"The caravan's march direction isn't this way."

Sun Miao paused, looked around, nodded, and confirmed:

"I have some confidence in the geography of the Continent of Hope. That 【Dementia】 believer was right; this caravan is clearly going to the Boro Highlands front line. They are marching like this to bypass the hilly area in the southernmost part of Dense Forest County where vehicles cannot pass, while we clearly don't need to."

"Cutting straight through will save a lot of time."

"Although the trial is 15 days, you wouldn't want half of these 15 days wasted on the road, right?"

"At the caravan's march speed and original route, it might take 4 or 5 more days to reach the front line, but if we move at full speed in this direction, we can probably touch the boundary of Twin Lakes County in just 2 days."

"This is the nearest road. You can trust my judgment."

"Once there, the clues you want to find are very likely to become clear."

Cheng Shi hummed and laughed: "You know me well? Do you know what I'm looking for?"

"Of course I don't know specifically what it is. Zhen Xin only said to let us investigate the history related to 【Order】, and you told me today that 【Order】 has a problem. So, whether from this angle or from the perspective of completing the trial, the high-level officials of the Grand Court of Judgment will definitely be the targets of your investigation."

"And in this place, besides the Grand Inquisitor of the Grand Court of Judgment guarding the Boro Highlands, Kein Laoer, perhaps no one is closer to 【Order】 than him."

"Cheng Shi, stop probing. Dropping your guard can make our efficiency higher."

Cheng Shi smiled noncommittally, accelerated his pace, and ran toward the predetermined destination.

Along the way, he didn't talk to the Master of Mime again until they rushed out of this dense forest under the roar of "Meteor Fire Rain" behind them, and ran south with all their might for half a day, only stopping in the sunset glow to rest and replenish their physical strength.

Interestingly, even if Cheng Shi only moved at the running speed of a normal warrior, as a mage, Sun Miao actually followed him for half a day without falling behind.

By now, sweat had long since appeared on the other party's face, but no matter how unstable her breathing was, she still gritted her teeth and carried it through.

Of course, Cheng Shi could tell that she didn't carry it through herself, but borrowed the power of some prop.

This wasn't strange; everyone had props. But what was strange was that the other party was clearly advising him to let go of his guard, yet she herself was unwilling to open her mouth to ask him for a mental spell the whole time.

Asking a priest teammate for a heal was the most common cooperation in this game. She was resisting even this, so... what was she guarding against?

Cheng Shi didn't guess it, but he knew he could still control the situation, so he didn't think about it anymore and relaxed his body and mind to rest.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the direction where the sunset was gradually disappearing, slightly emptying his mind.

Sun Miao noticed Cheng Shi's state and finally took out her electronic beeper again after half a day of silence, typing:

"I've always felt that the name of the Church of Yu Hui is well-chosen. When 【Order】 sets in the west, isn't only the afterglow left on the Continent of Hope?"

"Just like at this moment, 【Order】 is probably really going down the mountain."

Cheng Shi smiled, withdrew his gaze, looked at this teammate who had an undisguised desire for information about 【Order】, and smiled:

"Answer me one question, and I can tell you some things about Him at my discretion."

Sun Miao instantly got some spirit, her hands typing fiercely: "Ask!"

"Where did that 【Dementia】 believer go?"

Hearing this question, the Master of Mime, who had a dead face, paused for a moment, shook her head after a moment, and said: "He was the first person to flash away from the cart. I didn't see where he went."

"Then where do you think he would go?" Cheng Shi's mouth curled up, and his gaze toward the other party was quite meaningful.

However, Sun Miao was stunned for a long time and couldn't respond.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi shook his head and laughed:

"Why don't you speak anymore?"

"The hint given at the beginning of the trial is very simple. Since we woke up on this caravan, it means the caravan's destination will be where the trial clues are buried."

"And the road under our feet is the closest road to the clues. In this way, half a day has passed, why hasn't our 【Dementia】 teammate caught up yet?"

"Could it be that his pace isn't enough?"

"I don't think so. Even you, as a mage, can keep up with my speed. Then what kind of profession would he have to be to be left behind by the two of us to the point where we can't even see his figure?"

Soloist?

Impossible. The gaze he used to size up everyone at the beginning was extremely aggressive. Setting aside the disdain mixed in, that shouldn't be a gaze a singer would dare to show."

"He dared to do this only to explain one point, that is, he had sufficient confidence not to be afraid of causing trouble. So I am more inclined to think he is an output-type profession, and must be a violent output-type profession."

"So I can't figure out why he didn't appear on this shortcut to the Boro Highlands."

"Vice President Sun, can you explain it to me?"

Sun Miao didn't pause this time, but immediately typed: "Not everyone cares about a trial. He might have his own goals."

Just after speaking, her typing hand suddenly stopped, staying on the electronic beeper without lifting.

Cheng Shi noticed this detail and hummed again.

"Your judgment at the moment is far less sharp than when you tried to gain my trust before, Master."

"Let me ask, if a 【Dementia】 believer didn't care about this trial, why would he share so much knowledge about the trial background with you at the beginning of the trial?"

"As 【Silence】, which is abnormally close to 【Dementia】, Vice President Sun, can you solve my confusion?"

"..."

Sun Miao seemed unable to deal with Cheng Shi's questioning. She just turned her head silently, put down the electronic sound-maker, and then went into endless silence.

At this moment, she chose piety again.

And her piety was the answer Cheng Shi wanted to find.

Thus, Cheng Shi smiled. He didn't say much more, but relaxed and rested even more.

Until the sunset completely sank below the horizon and the bright moon that had long hung in the sky began to emit its light, the two looked at each other with different expressions, stood up at the same time, and prepared to continue moving forward.

But just at this moment, a rustling sound suddenly came from the grass not far away. Cheng Shi's eyes condensed and he turned his head to look, only to see a long-tailed rabbit with a black back and white forehead that didn't know when it had touched the vicinity, shrinking in the grass and chewing grass leaves with a creaking sound.

"..."

Cheng Shi had seen this thing, or rather, this thing was everywhere near Dense Forest County. This rabbit was not only ugly but also a glutton. It was one of the best ingredients for players in this trial.

Unfortunately, this rabbit came at the wrong time. If it were earlier, maybe they could have had a full meal tonight.

He chuckled, turned his head to leave, but immediately after, he heard Sun Miao, who had been silent for a long time, pick up her electronic beeper and type again:

"Looking at your reaction, you've probably seen this dense forest tree rabbit but aren't familiar with it."

"Tree rabbits have long tails, not for balancing the body when running, but for fixing the position when climbing trees. They like to eat tree leaves, and only eat tree leaves, so..."

"Guess why the dense forest tree rabbit in front of us is eating grass?"

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Shi stopped, and the rabbit's eyes turned red. ===== CHAPTER 916 =====
