Chapter 962: I might not understand Tamers, but I understand Xiao Qi

~10 min read 1,921 words

I might not understand Tamers, but I understand Xiao Qi.

(Hands on hips first, super large cup!)

On the other side.

The moment the meteorite fell, Du Qiyu controlled the surrounding tamed beasts that luckily survived to rush back to this scorched earth land despite the scorching flames, while his main body lay on the edge of the scorched earth, disguising himself as a dead soldier, in order to expand the activity range of the tamed beasts as much as possible.

Hiding the main body is a science, especially when his temper is difficult to control.

Correct, Sun Miao's guess about Xiao Qi was basically all correct. His emotions indeed had some problems, to the point that he had to suppress the backlash of these emotions by splitting his own power and wisdom.

Of course, this problem didn't exist from the beginning, but appeared two months ago.

As for why it appeared...

Every time Du Qiyu recalled this matter, he always felt that he had been played.

He indeed fulfilled the promise of increasing his strength, but before this, he never knew that increasing strength would have such a huge price, to the point that although his strength became stronger, his score dropped from 2600 to 2000.

Du Qiyu didn't lie; he had indeed reached 2600 points, but he also lied, because that score only existed in the past.

So at the beginning of the trial, when he learned that Xiao Shi had 2200 points, his emotions became somewhat difficult to suppress.

Why did he have a higher score than his current self?

With this thought, his prejudice against Cheng Shi became deeper and deeper, and his hatred became greater and greater. Later, he felt that this emotion was too influential on the rhythm of the trial and had to madly tame the lives in the trial to reduce the backlash of emotions. However, as a result, his strength also dropped rapidly, even to the point of being despised by Lin Xi but not daring to talk back.

He had long been fed up with all this, but had no way to deal with it. His temper became harder and harder to control, and he could only constantly tame others, transfer pain, and thus developed a twisted pleasure of taking pleasure in controlling people.

And just now, Du Qiyu had another batch of tamed beasts die under the fire rain, and the scattered emotions gathered again, making him even more irritable, so a subtle deviation appeared in his decision when rushing back to the scorched earth.

Judging from his observation of Xiao Shi's face when he sneaked up on him just now, the prop dropped from Xiao Shi's hand must be very important, so he deduced that the other party would definitely return to pick it up at the first opportunity.

And when he discovered the other party, the other party's position was very far from Ke Yinlao'er, which meant that Xiao Shi and that horse-faced wise man likely hadn't noticed the location of the Startling Bow.

Thus, Du Qiyu immediately made a decision in his heart. He decided to take the thing dropped by Xiao Shi first.

Actually, this decision had no logic, purely emotion-driven. But the problem was that Du Qiyu couldn't overcome his emotions. He had become a slave to emotions, and the obsession accumulated in childhood was magnified exponentially under the blessing of such emotions, eventually turning into a resentment of "I can be bad, but Xiao Shi can only be worse than me."

It was under these circumstances that Du Qiyu and Cheng Shi "passed each other." One picked up the container, while the other got the fake bow that had been burned into scorched ash.

"......"

Looking at the gray dregs under his feet that only had the shape of a bow, Cheng Shi smacked his lips.

It was fake after all, and didn't have the ability to resist the meteorite fire rain at all. But in this way, how should he pit the other party?

Cheng Shi rolled his eyes and asked Sun Miao behind him: "Vice President Sun, I don't know if you have any insights into forging weapons?"

"...... Cheng Shi, I am a believer in 【Foolishness】, not some creation fanatic who worships 【Truth】."

"Oh, it turns out that believers in 【Foolishness】 also have things they don't understand."

"......" Sun Miao felt that he had fallen into a trap. This feeling made him very uncomfortable, but for the sake of the reputation of 【Foolishness】, he had to prove himself. "Put away your provocation. It's useless to me. Say it, what do you want to do?"

This is called useless?

Cheng Shi was overjoyed: "Simple. When Xiao Qi comes over, just let him catch a glimpse of the bow body flashing with red light. As for whether it can shoot arrows, it doesn't matter."

Sun Miao resigned himself to his fate. He was no longer prepared to ponder Cheng Shi's plan. He now just wanted to quickly lure that Tamer over, solve him, vent his anger, and then leave the trial to write everything he witnessed this time into the register organized by the History School, completing his task.

"Are you sure your plan is useful?"

"I might not understand Tamers, but I understand Xiao Qi. He will definitely come."

However, they miscalculated this time, because the moment Du Qiyu got the 【Filth-Fall】 container, this Tamer with abnormal emotional fluctuations directly drove his tamed beasts to run back madly and disappeared from this battlefield with his main body.

Think about it, how should a master who only possesses emotional side effects think when he gets a prop that can absorb his own emotions and desires?

So His guidance was here?

So this was His true promise?

What other promise could be more satisfying than grabbing a self-enhancing prop from Xiao Shi's hands?

Although Du Qiyu didn't know what a container was at all, when he discovered the use of this prop, his first reaction was to verify whether this thing was really a heaven-sent joy.

As for the Startling Bow or something... it didn't matter anymore.

He wanted the Startling Bow just because he took a fancy to the bow's role of nourishing the soul with the enemy's fear, wanting to use it to offset some emotional backlash. But as long as he had this thing, who would still need a broken bow?

Thus, Du Qiyu retreated decisively. Under the influence of the container, he felt that he had made the most correct decision. He needed to find a quiet place to put aside all interference and study the use of this nameless prop. Once he discovered that this thing could really solve his own pain points, then...

Heh, I have recovered all my strength and even more, will you be afraid, Xiao Shi?

Whether he would be afraid was another matter, but it would be true that it would be awkward. Seeing the wise man's gaze toward him becoming more and more teasing, Cheng Shi gave a dry laugh.

"Don't worry, what should come will come..."

At the same time, in the depths of the void.

Time retreated slightly. At the moment Cheng Shi realized that the person who "killed" 【Order】 beside the Sea of Desire was a believer in 【War】, a pair of eyes filled with star points and spirals opened quietly in a pitch-black, boundless void.

As soon as He appeared, He praised the pair of eyes with left flames and right blood before Him without stint:

"Should I praise silence as the best disguise, or should I sigh that there is nothing but deception under honesty?"

"【War】, when did you come to me to steal authority?"

【War】 remained indifferent. He glanced at the starry eyes expressionlessly and hummed: "You... why did you come?"

【Deception】... Not bad, He was naturally 【Deception】. 【Deception】 chuckled and said righteously:

"To seek justice for 【Order】!"

"......"

【War】 seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the universe. But don't forget, He was very good at enduring, so He didn't laugh, but shook His head and continued to hum: "Then you should go find 【Convention】... I don't have... justice here."

"Oh? So you admit that you split 【Order】?"

"......" 【War】 closed His eyes slightly, as if He had extinguished some fire. "I don't remember... I said... such words."

"You just said that there is no justice where you are. Since there is no justice, isn't that clearly saying that 【Order】 has fallen?"

"......"

Sometimes gods also want to call the police.

Unfortunately, the "police" among the gods had already become "bandits."

【War】 opened His eyes again. He silently watched 【Deception】, who had high-raised corners of His eyes but clearly had a solemn look in His eyes, and suddenly sighed with a complex tone:

"His split... has nothing to do with me."

It was this sentence that made the eyes, which had been calm just now, tighten instantly. For a time, not only did the star points flash wildly and the spirals reverse, but He even blinked and summoned a chaotic yellow fog in the depths of the void.

A giant hand representing 【Chaos】 broke out of the yellow fog, forming a pincer attack with the pair of eyes, trapping 【War】 in the middle.

And the reason why the other party's sentence made 【Deception】 change His face was because His authority told Him that 【War】 was lying!

The split of 【Order】 clearly had something to do with Him!

【Deception】's eyes suddenly became incredibly solemn, but His tone remained playful:

"Interesting. I often wonder why 【Order】 would split at the Sea of Desire, but instead, you have not been affected at all..."

"Now it seems that I underestimated you. What a god of endurance, what a god of no war and no struggle."

"But I would like to ask, how did 【Order】 split?"

"What benefits did you get in this split!"

【War】 didn't speak again. He glanced at 【Chaos】 behind Him, thoughtful.

Seeing that the other party refused to speak again, 【Deception】 didn't talk nonsense and started to act directly. But just at the moment He and 【Chaos】 attacked at the same time, the entire void suddenly stagnated without warning!

This master of 【Void】 seemed to have lost control of the void at a certain moment, and was counter-controlled in His own territory along with His clones.

But it only went this far, because 【War】 did not launch the next offensive. He instantly relaxed the confinement of these two testers, and then sighed again:

"Leave. I am not a threat to you. The one I am waiting for... is not you."

Just as the words fell, without waiting for 【Deception】 and 【Chaos】 to react, He left first.

【Deception】, who had lost control of the void for the first time, turned His eyes to the direction where 【War】 disappeared, His eyes flickering, and He didn't speak for a long time.

Until 【Chaos】 also left and the entire void fell into silence again, He suddenly "Hee~" and became overjoyed again.

"Really can endure, and really can fight."

War, war, at this moment, it is worthy of your name 【War】."

"But it wasn't tested by me, hmm, stronger than everyone, even equivalent to two old bones."

"But unfortunately, the one you are waiting for is not a peer, but... 'God'."

As He spoke, a seven-colored stream of light connected to the star points in His eyes, and disappeared along with the pair of eyes in an instant. ===== CHAPTER 963 =====
