Chapter 1119: Speculations on [Fraud] and the Flame of Hope

There seems to be only one answer:

He was deceived!

The God of Fun deceived Him with an illusion, making Him think that nothing happened in the world!

Therefore, even if some gods retain their memories after the world is reset, the Flame of Hope will never leave any memories, because He has never witnessed those things with His own eyes!

But this is even more strange. You know, the will of the Fire of Hope is to live towards death. There is nothing wrong with letting it know about the real universe. On the contrary, it may even make the Fear Faction more united. Then why would the God of Fun deceive his allies?

Don’t want to let fear turn into despair?

It doesn't seem right, because without despair there would be no fire of hope. His faith is rooted in this and will definitely not disappear because of despair.

Just as He Himself said, only when the flame of hope is big enough to set the whole prairie on fire will He cease to exist. So even if there is only one person still on the road of resistance, He will appear and protect that remaining spark.

If that is not the case, why else?

Cheng Shi thought for a long time, so long that Candlelight realized that the previous question probably involved many important things. Just as he was about to ask Cheng Shi what he was thinking, Cheng Shi was shocked all over, and a reason that even he himself found incredible arose in his mind.

The illusion created by the God of Fun prevented the Flame of Hope from seeing the Creator and the real universe. From another perspective, could what He did be understood not as fraud, but as... a cover-up?

He doesn't want the Flame of Hope to see [Origin]! ?

Or perhaps, to be more bold, regardless of whether [Origin] is omniscient and omniscient, the God of Fun also doesn't want [Him] to see the flame of hope! ?

Cheng Shi's eyes widened suddenly, and he felt that he had probably guessed what the God of Fun was thinking.

He wanted to tell himself that the meaning behind the flame of hope was likely far more important than he had expected!
