Foolish Game of the Gods

I have two principles as a human being:

1. Never lie.

2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.

“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the ...

Chapter 1142: Stealing a Chicken, Losing the Rice

Ji Yue came here for the Firebringer's plan to create a god.

Although Sun Miao has given a direction, how to fight for the throne of [Corruption] according to this direction is still an unknown path.

In order to make the Firebringer's plan of creating a god go more smoothly, Ji Yue prayed for a trial to find the inspiration for "creating a god". Then she met the famous Weaver of Destiny at the 0221 Experimental Field in this trial.

Ji Yue's good impression of Cheng Shi did not only come from this incident. In the past, when discussing the situation with the Fire Messenger, he would often mention this destiny weaver. Those among the Fire Messenger who had dealt with the destiny weaver had a good opinion of him, at most calling him a cunning lone wolf, and there was no bad comment.

In addition, An Mingyu, who retired from his job as a salary seeker, also affirmed Cheng Shi's ability, so Ji Yue gradually became curious about this person.

She thought she had a good eye for people, so when she met Cheng Shi in person, she felt that he was a player worthy of being invited.

Unfortunately, the Fate Weaver was unwilling to pass on the fire, and she could do nothing about it.

After Cheng Shi left, she investigated the statue for a long time, but found no guidance on becoming a god. Then she turned her attention to Candelt, who was eagerly searching for the fugitive.

At this time, Kandert's house had been burned by Cheng Shi. When Ji Yue rushed to the scene, she only saw traces of the explosion under the bedroom floor, and the things inside had long disappeared.

She realized that Candelt might also be a clue, but when she looked again she couldn't find the candidate for executioner, so she came to the Forbidden City to try her luck.

But before she could get into the prison, she was stopped by someone.

The appearance of this person was beyond her expectation. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, "What's your name?"

"Zhao Xishi."

Zhao Xishi smiled, looked Ji Yue up and down, and said meaningfully:

"I guess you've probably figured out our relationship with them. Yes, I'm helping the scavengers hunt down the fate weavers.

The followers of [Annihilation] are hunting him, and a player who has angered the gods will definitely not survive for long.

I noticed that you approached him, but he...rejected you?"

Ji Yue's heart tightened, but she remained calm on the surface, smiling casually as a way of dealing with it.

Zhao Xishi pointed to the prison behind him and continued:

“The Fate Weaver is inside right now.

What I want to say is that instead of cooperating with a dead person who is about to die, it is better to cooperate with us.

Scholars, whatever you want, we can satisfy you.

Victory in trials, life-saving items, guidance for the future...even some secrets of gods that ordinary people cannot access, as long as you are willing to cooperate with us, we can give you all of these.

I know you have some concerns. After all, he is the fate weaver who solved the problems of 0221 and Zainjil.

But please rest assured, you don't need to take any risks. You just need to set up some formations for us on the periphery to prevent them from escaping. Scholars understand this best, don't they? Then, you will receive the greatest goodwill from me and the scavenger.

I think this is a very good deal, especially since the Fate Weaver has refused your cooperation.

Give this ungrateful guy a taste of his own medicine and let him know that scholars also have tempers.

how?"

Zhao Xishi's tone was very firm, as if she could not imagine any reason why a scholar would reject her.

After hearing this, Ji Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that they mistakenly thought that she had approached Cheng Shi for cooperation in the trial.

It's good as long as it's not exposed.

However, even if Cheng Shi did not agree to join the Firebringers, the Firebringers would never turn against a "candidate" who rejected them.

Not only that, the Fire Bearer will also protect those people with good intentions, because in the eyes of the Fire Bearer, they may all be the future fire.

It’s just that the methods of protection are different. As conservatives, the defenders will probably pretend to comply and take the opportunity to notify.

And the city builders...

Ji Yue flicked her hair, pulled out a spear from the void behind her, pointed the tip of the spear at Zhao Xishi's nose, and laughed loudly:

"I thought a friend had come, but he turned out to be a scoundrel.

Want to kill someone through me?

You, too, deserve it?"

As the word "match" fell to the ground, Ji Yuetong spat, and the void behind him was torn apart. Countless spears and short swords, wrapped in the momentum of [war], swooped down towards Zhao Xishi.

“!!!”

Zhao Xishi had never thought that he would face a battle after the failed contact, and he had never thought that the scholar in front of him who was full of "truth" was actually a Bishop of Purgatory who was in tune with "war"!

When the blood river in the void battlefield flowed into reality, the historian's pupils suddenly shrank and he quickly retreated, his face gloomy as he said:

"What are you crazy about!"

Of course she thought the other party was going crazy, and all the attacks before her were killing moves, and it was obvious that they wanted to kill her. But they had no hatred or grudges, and at most there was no hope of cooperation. Would they fight to the death over a disagreement?

In addition, the noise made by the other party was too loud, and the fate weaver in the Forbidden House must have sensed it. He finally followed them here, but was "alerted". How could Zhao Xishi not be angry?

She gritted her teeth and threw out a few props, then withstood the opponent's attack and dodged away, her face so gloomy that it looked like water was dripping out of it.

Zhao Xishi suddenly felt that she had fallen into a trap, and she yelled at Ji Yue:

"Are you in cahoots with the Fate Weaver?

You guys are fishing!?"

Ji Yue was stunned for a moment, then laughed meaningfully and said, "Could it be that the foolish act in this trial is referring to you, Zhao what's that?"

"Good! Good! Good!"

Zhao Xishi was furious. Her face turned cold in an instant. She sneered and immediately tore a piece of paper. The light of [Truth] on the paper surged out. Ji Yue recognized in an instant that the other party had already set up many magic arrays here, and the purpose of cooperating with her was just to be more secure.
