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 57 You are His believers! ! ? ?

"【When Fear Comes】? Wasn't it taken away by Mo Qiusi?"

Chenosley chuckled twice, but for the first time ever, there was a hint of sadness in his laughter.

"There are five of us who came here from underground. Athos is dead, Kotaro and I are alive. Guess where the remaining two went?"

Cheng Shi suddenly had an idea:

Alchemy, creation, dual divinity, two people...

A bold idea arose in his mind, and he murmured in disbelief:

"In addition to making puppets, Creation can probably also make...

A relic of a god!?"

“You’re really smart.

Qing is a believer of Death, and Uyagli is a believer of Pollution. They were transformed by Athos into replicas of When Fear Comes, and stole a bit of power from this divine relic.

When it is not in use, the replica can perfectly enjoy its authority.

In order to get closer to Mercury, we added a special divinity into it, so that the replica would only succumb to the power of [Order].

And when the original it selects its target, Qing and Uyagli will be repelled by the pure divinity, and will be transformed back into flesh and blood from the replica state, and the replica will naturally dissipate.

However, at that time, they would die immediately after becoming adults again, sacrificing themselves to the great [Chaos].

We never worry about it being taken away, we only worry about not being able to get close to Mercus!"

"......"

What is purple gold red gourd?

"Then what?" Cheng Shi asked doubtfully, "Use the fake to kill Mo Qiusi and preserve the real relic of the God?"

“Of course not. There is no need to preserve the relics of the gods. They are not a gift from our Lord, but rather abandoned items from other [gods].

According to Athos' idea, after getting the replica, Mercius would lower his vigilance to the lowest level, and this would be the best time to break through his defenses!

A true relic from the gods will always be used at the most important moment.

Isn’t it? "

Damn, that makes sense.

Cheng Shi was speechless.

"So, do you think Athos is a genius?

His teacher was far greater than he was, but unfortunately this world could not accommodate geniuses, let alone these great inventions.

People shout about their faith, but they are doing things that go against their faith.

And this just shows that the world is inherently disordered!

Everyone is the embodiment of contradiction and confusion!"

"......"

To be honest, these remarks from the Chaos Believers were quite shocking, but Cheng Shi couldn't accept them.

At least as far as he is concerned, he is not chaotic and his stability remains consistent.

That is: always deceiving others, including being deceived.

“If you accept our invitation, you can not only kill the ‘murderer’, but also take Athos’s ‘Alchemy Notes’.

This is a note left behind by the greatest genius of this era. Once it is released, even the scholars in the Tower of Reason will scramble for it.

Think about it, what would you choose? "

Haha, I have no choice.

Now that things have come to this, if I refuse, I will be the one to die.

Cheng Shi shook his head and chuckled.

"You don't doubt my identity? You may not even know why I'm here."

"It doesn't matter. Compared to His coming, none of this matters."

"What will happen to Tarot after you die?"

"His existence is to prove to the outside world: You are not the murderer! When the time is right, he will prove his piety."

Wow, you guys are pretty thoughtful.

That sounds nice, maybe it’s suicide again?

"You killed two of my companions, but only gave me one life?" Cheng Shi continued to question with a playful look.

Chenosley was stunned for a moment, frowned and shook his head.

"We only killed one man, and I can see that hunter didn't get along with you guys."

"?"

He didn't lie!

This means they only killed Wei Guan!

How did the ascetic die?

Is there really someone taking advantage of the situation?

Who is it?

Cheng Shi thought hard for a while but couldn't figure it out.

Perhaps someone had come into contact with that semi-artifact before the ascetic?

There were too many people at the scene and he had no clues for a moment.

Forget it, back to the topic.

"Even if I accept your invitation, how can I make him feel fear when facing a first-level inquisitor of the Grand Inquisition?"

“Hahahaha, hahahaha, the Inquisitor is also a human being, and humans have fears. You might as well ask him, do you remember me?”

Ok, got it.

Cheng Shi sighed and asked again:

“Is it worth it?”

Chenosley glanced at him and said nothing.

But his weathered eyes were full of determination, and at this moment alone, he had nothing to do with chaos.

Cheng Shi is not a compassionate person, nor is he an ungrateful person.

One of his greatest strengths is that he listens to advice.

He understood what Chenosley meant, so he nodded and said:

"make a deal."

Chenosley went crazy again because of Cheng Shi's affirmation. He excitedly and twitchingly handed out "When Fear Comes", then raised his neck high, ready to be killed.

“If He comes after you die, will you regret not having seen Him?”

"regret?

You don't understand.

You have only realized His existence, but have not yet comprehended the true meaning of Chaos.

Go ahead, let me join in this sacrifice!

Join in this most wonderful welcome to our Lord!"

This semi-artifact now lay quietly in Chenosley's hand, completely different from the state in which the ascetic monk held it at that time.

Cheng Shi carefully stretched out his hand and lightly touched the handle of the dagger.

A breath of death flowed into his body along his fingers, so strong that it made him shiver.

No rejection?

"The relics of the gods have no consciousness and will not refuse, but the replicas made by Qing and Uyagli have obsessions. Except for the believers of Order, they reject everyone else."

Cheng Shi put away [When Fear Comes] with mixed feelings, then took out a scalpel from his sleeve.

Although this thing is a semi-artifact, it is not as easy to hold as a scalpel.

"Any last words?"

Chenosley laughed wantonly.

"My friend, I remember your name is...?"

Cheng Shi was stunned, then replied with a smile:

"Ultraman, my name is Ultraman."

Yes, my name is outman.

To you, I am just an outsider.

Goodbye, Chenosley.

I hope you are my answer.

“Squeak——”

“Uh…uh…”

The knife fell quickly and cleanly.

A tiny crack instantly appeared on Chenosley's neck, and at the moment his pupils contracted, the almost invisible wound suddenly burst open, spraying blood carrying "Order", "Depravity" and "Chaos" everywhere.

Seeing him die with a crazy smile on his face and his eyes closed, Cheng Shi shook the blood off his hands with a puzzled expression.

"The answer is wrong."
