He instantly activated his talent, trying to flee through the swirling [Corruption] dust—but the next instant reality slapped him awake, coldly reminding him he was no longer a [Corruption] believer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now fear finally took tangible form on Lin Xi’s face; his skin twitched, his pupils shrunk to needlepoints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he was ultimately a battle-hardened top-tier player; after a moment of utter panic, Lin Xi abandoned all dignity, crawling backward on all fours, and with a casual wave, banished everything before him into the world on the verge of annihilation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the two who had been cautiously vigilant never fell for it—they had already vanished from the scene and circled back behind Lin Xi after his stiff maneuver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chun saw Lin Xi trembling. For the first time, she directly sensed his impending doom—and it was all because of Cheng Shi, this terrifying... player who could strip away faith and curses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s just call him a player for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she wasted not a single second letting his effort go to waste, transforming instantly into the Queen of Thorns, flashing through ever-present shadows to stand before Lin Xi, and in his stunned disbelief, lashed a thick mass of thorns toward his eyes, throat, and heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt this strike would end all her suffering—yet...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Watch out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Shi’s face changed as he shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had sensed Lin Xi’s oddness from the start: if this player could react swiftly after losing faith, he wouldn’t remain trembling in place after escaping the immediate danger—such pointless behavior would squander the life he’d fought for, squeezing his own survival space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the shock and trembling were illusions—deception and counterattack were the real goals!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xi was truly a formidable opponent—he dared gamble on their overconfidence even at this moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without faith, he still had such confidence—on what grounds? Where did his confidence come from?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, Cheng Shi’s heart leapt to his throat—but the Divine Chosen Assassin moved too fast; his thoughts hadn’t caught up with Chun’s form before she launched her ultimate at point-blank range against Lin Xi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the moment he realized something was wrong, Cheng Shi immediately raised his hand and unleashed the Redeemer of Self-Guilt—he was done playing dangerous games; he had to crush every threat at its root.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet when a person realizes danger is near... it is often already too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Gorylis’s resentment spilled from the void, tentacles raining down upon Lin Xi, a pale, emaciated hand suddenly tore through the void above him—and gently swept...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gorylis’s resentment vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chun vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even everything within dozens of feet vanished, leaving only that hand and Lin Xi—and the hand held a familiar banner, now stirring without wind, radiating terrifying authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Cheng Shi’s pupils contracted sharply, every hair on his body stood on end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xi’s hidden card was truly a [He]!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Bosi!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Annihilator’s Envoy, Luo Bosi, could banish and erase Gorylis’s resentment, wipe clean everything around, and reclaim that banner from Chun’s grasp!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Shi recognized the figure instantly—and before the next second even began, he hurled every last card he held.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want to win through wit; under the pressure of [Annihilation], he had no confidence bargaining with an Envoy of [Annihilation]. He knew he had no leverage to offer this leader of annihilation—and the opponent’s devotion alone could erase him from this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So [Annihilation] still played dirty—only the lesser one came, not the greater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even the lesser one was far beyond his ability to defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So in that instant, Cheng Shi unleashed five bolts of lightning at Luo Bosi’s hand—each identical to the Profane [Annihilation]—he knew these bolts might be useless against the Envoy, but he needed time, even a breath to think, or he was certain he would die here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait, die?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Death]!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had an idea!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of insight struck Cheng Shi’s mind; the next second, he pulled out the corpse of the attendant knight from the Magma Coffin, jammed the door key into its eye socket—and as the bones rose and stacked into a door, he shoved open the gate leading to the Abyss of Desire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nearly operated with both hands simultaneously: the moment the door key activated, he marked Luo Bosi’s hand again and triggered the Redeemer of Self-Guilt a second time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he activated the Chaotic Impersonation Art, transforming himself into...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aflous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Cheng Shi did not choose to flee—he wasn’t sure he could outrun Luo Bosi’s [Annihilation] power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the leader of annihilation who had dragged an entire city into oblivion; even if he fled far using [Time], could he escape the [Annihilation]’s power?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Shi dared not gamble—he chose to trust [Deception]!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The “Aflous” stepped forward, standing at the mouth of the Abyss Gate, idly tossing a [Corrupt] container like a ball, wearing a sly smile as he faced the approaching Luo Bosi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Bosi had indeed broken through the trial’s constraints and descended—but as He tore through the veil of reality, He sensed a trace of [Corrupt] energy. That faint scent of desire emanating from the [Corrupt] container caused His movement and perception to stall for a fleeting instant—allowing Cheng Shi to seize the window of opportunity and complete his disguise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No [He] would approach [Corrupt], for it was the very collection of desire even [Order] had failed to conquer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So when Luo Bosi appeared and saw Aflous standing before Him, He scanned the surroundings with grave eyes, frowning slightly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aflous?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You cannot be here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Bosi was suspicious—but the [Corrupt] container was undeniable, so He asked this contradictory question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it was precisely this [Corrupt] container that absorbed Cheng Shi’s emotions and fear, granting him the cold clarity needed to face this [Annihilation] Envoy who could erase him at any moment—and so he spoke, in Aflous’s voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luo Bosi, who gave you the courage to take someone from right before me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No sooner had the icy accusation ended than Gorylis’s resentment tore through the void once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the two Envoys’ forms coexisted in the world, confronting each other in this [Corrupt] trial—the Envoy of [Annihilation], Luo Bosi, face-to-face with another [Sinking] lesser deity.\u003C\u002Fp>",1242,"2026-06-21T06:05:16.216Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e1eca145aa2e616996b9bb21038cb1cc297518b2a5fe68bdeddf3b2d7e8c13ef","the-gods-foolish-game-chapter-948","the-gods-foolish-game-chapter-946",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-gods-foolish-game-cover.jpg"]
