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 ...
Li Wufang's outstretched hand made Cheng Shi stunned for a moment.
He knew that the investigator who dared to risk his life was brave, but he never thought that the other party could be so brave.
I have the support of my benefactor and a group of fear-following gods as my guarantors, so I am naturally fearless. What about you? What gives you the right?
The moment he stretched out his hand, Li Wufang realized that he had made a big mistake. His face froze, his whole body tensed up, and he looked at Cheng Shi as if asking for help.
Seeing this, Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows and was overjoyed.
It turns out that I was the one who supported you, so it's okay.
A professional clown would never let the scene get dull. Cheng Shi switched his words in a split second, looking at Fadian seriously and saying:
"You've seen this. This is the current state of the Universal Order. Even devout believers in the Order have been forced to ask for your gift due to external pressure. This shows that saving the Universal Order has reached a point where it can no longer be delayed.
Time may be of little value to the gods, but to your believers, every minute and every second is precious.
You cannot measure the piety of mortal life with the long-term vision of a true God. Every second you waste here will cause your believers to suffer twice as much in the future.
Of course, in order to spread the will of [Order], they are not afraid of hardships and are willing to endure them, but the pace of faith is limited, and you are not the only god in this world.
The slower they walk, the faster the followers of other faiths walk, and when the measure of pious steps all belong to other faiths, then the god closest to *Him will never be you.
Do not hesitate, great [Order], we are not racing against time for ourselves, we are racing against time for you!"
When he finished speaking, even Ke Taro couldn't stand it anymore. In terms of shamelessness, apart from his benefactor, the only one in the world who was the most shameless was Lord Cheng Shi.
No wonder he became the darling of [Nothingness].
Li Wufang was also confused. He didn't expect that he was so important. After hearing what the Weaver of Destiny said, he seemed to have more confidence in extending his hand.
The Code remained silent. He began to turn the pages again, the rustling sound echoing throughout the temple. It was unknown what clause he had found in the Code. After a long silence, He finally spoke:
"Giving authority to members of the Tribunal is indeed in accordance with the rules, but..."
“!!!”
Cheng Shi was cheered up. He never thought that his exorbitant demands could be exchanged for real promises. After all, his eloquence last time only earned him a title. It seems that this time, it will really be useful to attract the support of the [Order] believers.
For a time, the investigator became a perfect tool in his eyes.
Cheng Shi said anxiously:
"But whatever you ask for, feel free to ask. As long as it's within my capabilities, I will definitely satisfy you.
There's no need to elaborate on spreading the will of Order. I've already been steadfastly on this path, persevering and resolute."
"..." The Code paused for a moment again, and then sneered, "Lies can never be trusted.
The reason I believed you last time was because, as you said, I had no better choice.
But this time is different.”
The code paused and looked at Li Wufang and his outstretched hand.
“I have to thank you for bringing me a devoted follower.
I will give my authority to my believers, allowing them to carry out my will and act on behalf of [Order] in the world.
Since you are eager to restore order in the universe, I suppose you would agree with this?"
“???”
Cheng Shi's face turned pale and his eyes widened, his gaze constantly jumping between Li Wufang and the code. He seemed to have not expected that he would shoot himself in the foot. His clever plan made him lose the opportunity to get close to power.
This reaction was noticed by Fadian, who snorted again.
He seemed to see through everything.
Little did he know that when even Ketaro felt sorry for Lord Cheng Shi, Cheng Shi was actually smiling in his heart.
Lao Deng, do you still want to play dirty tricks on me?
Then you underestimate me a bit.
Cheng Shi's face turned pale, but he was secretly making comments.
The Investigator had long been tied to the ship of his destined man, so he was not here to ask for authority for himself. From the very beginning, he wanted Li Wufang to inherit the authority of [Order]!
You must know that no matter how much authority one has, it can never become a true [order]. At most, it is just like [corruption], exercising the authority of a certain [order].
But given Cheng Shi's current situation, he no longer needs to be strong when facing players. Even if he exercises one more authority when facing the gods, it will still be useless. It doesn't matter to him whether he has authority or not.
But once this power falls into Li Wufang's hands, the whole thing will become different!
[Iron Law of Order] was the only attendee in the Covenant of the Gods who voted against it, and anything done with [Nothingness], whether it was [Fraud] or [Fate], could not be approved by [Iron Law of Order].
If you want to get his vote, or if you want to kick him out of the table of gods, you can only start by exposing his identity and restoring the "real" [order].
It is impossible for Cheng Shi to become the "real [Order]", but Li Wufang is different. He is a pure [Order] believer. Once he is allowed to exercise the authority of [Order], as long as he finds the [Order] container again, Cheng Shi will have the opportunity to form alliances and replicate the scene of the "Messenger" cleverly seizing the throne of the true God, and expel the false [Order] from the [Order] throne!
And what is different this time is that Li Wufang is one of them. This has been confirmed in other sliced universes. With Cheng Shi's perspective on people, he also believes that Li Wufang will not betray him. In this way, if the overthrow of the "Iron Law of Order" is successful, then this vote will no longer be in the hands of the Fear Faction, but in the hands of Cheng Shi himself.
This is of great significance to Cheng Shi's layout, so he brought the investigator to perform a good show of "asking the king to give up his seat" today.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Wufang suddenly reached out and cooperated with him perfectly, and he didn't expect that [Order] would give in so quickly.
Seeing that everything went as he expected, Cheng Shi hid his achievements and fame.
On the other hand, the Investigator stood there at a loss, unable to accept that he was about to exercise the authority of the Lord.
Am I...worthy?
Didn’t I choose [Order] at the beginning of my life because there was no [Fate] to choose from?
Now let me uphold the final will of Order...
Li Wufang looked at Cheng Shi and wanted to say to his benefactor: I think it would be more effective if the Weaver of Destiny carried out your will.
But Cheng Shi understood his expression and immediately conveyed some information to him without making any noise.
Li Wufang understood and was suddenly shocked. He finally realized that the destiny weaver's plan was not for the destiny weaver himself, but for him!
This person of destiny, whose depth was hard to fathom, had so casually given the authority of the true God to himself!
At this moment, he remembered what Cheng Shi said at the fate meeting:
"This is true destiny, it is destined...you and I are gods!"
At the time, he thought it was just another trick by the Fate Weaver to deceive everyone, but now it seems...
Now that he has authority, how far can he be from becoming a god?
