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 576 Who is imprisoned here?

(Thank you for your support for the voting activities! Ten extra chapters will be added before the end of the month!)

When the four people heard this, their faces darkened again.

"Come, one by one, and redeem the lives you owe me. When the ransom is enough, I will let you go."

Cheng Shi smiled cunningly. He helped up the teammate who had hit the ground with his head, so that he could not lower his head to hide his embarrassment. Then he strolled in front of the four people unscrupulously, waiting for them to think about how to pay the ransom.

The male player at the edge saw this scene, and there was a hint of shock in his uneasy expression. He looked at Cheng Shi's back and asked cautiously:

"Boss, you...came in alone?"

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows and said without even turning his head: "Not really, I still have a bodyguard."

bodyguard?

Everyone looked deep into the corridor and could only vaguely see a hunter hiding in the darkness, and those few dry vine thorn arrows were obviously shot by that person.

This bodyguard is incredibly powerful, he must be at least a top player!

Even the bodyguards are top players, so the boss in front of him must be a player on the list, right?

But there doesn’t seem to be a single famous mummy at the top of the [Decay] list!

This big guy must be a mummy. His arms look extremely hard, just like a blessing from [Decay] to the warrior.

"Boss...you..."

"Don't try to get close to me. If you have money, pay me. If you don't have money... pay me back with your life." Cheng Shi smiled sinisterly, scaring the others.

"I'll pay it!" The four people all realized that although this big boss was blackmailing them, he didn't seem to have the intention to kill them. He didn't want to kill them.

However, as a top player, isn't it a bit too "desperate" for you to come and rob us little Karamis?

But this is consistent with their perception of top players. After all, the top of the top, those who can reach the top must be crazy.

They just do things according to their own preferences and don't care about opinions or scores at all.

Just as Cheng Shile was about to collect the money, the tall and thin man he helped up suddenly changed his expression, gritted his teeth, and tentatively said:

"Boss, I have three blank A-level law texts in my space. They can exempt you from chanting and instantly cast three 5-second law texts to spread far away. Are these enough to buy your life?"

Oh wow, good stuff!

Cheng Shi nodded, quite satisfied.

As one of the most useful [Order] S-level talents, "Laws Sing Far Away" can enact temporary laws by singing the Song of Judgment. The various "It is forbidden to... " that we encountered before are the effects of this talent.

A-level props can achieve an S-level talent effect for 5 seconds, which is considered top-notch in the A-level.

When Cheng Shi thought about the chance that he would also have the opportunity to cosplay as an Order believer, he decided to accept it with a smile. As for whether he would get S or not, it didn't matter, because it was impossible for him to get more S than the Death Fun Ring anyway.

He was about to say yes, but then he heard this believer in Order say again:

"But sir, I have another request."

Cheng Shi's eyes turned cold: "I advise you to think it over before you speak. Now, you are not qualified to negotiate terms."

The tall and thin man seemed to have made up his mind and said regardless:

"I want to hire you to help me fulfill a wish."

“?” Cheng Shi was stunned.

Hiring someone is not impossible, but it depends on whether you can afford the price.

He slowly put away his cold face, turned around to hide his greedy embarrassment, and continued to stroll: "Tell me first, what is your wish?"

The tall and thin man said seriously, "I am an investigator. The purpose of my prayer is to come to the Howling Prison to investigate the truth. I never dreamed that I would actually succeed in coming to the most solid fortress of Carter's Court. Although the process was beyond my expectations, the result... is exactly what I wanted!"

As soon as he said this, a teammate next to him exclaimed: "No wonder you advised us not to resist, it turns out you have selfish motives!"

The tall and thin man smiled bitterly:

"It's not really selfish. Under the circumstances at that time, if we resisted, everyone would be executed on the spot. Do you think it was really the Iron Knights who caught us?

No, the Grand Executioner was in the courtroom at the time. If we continued to resist, we might not even have the chance to be imprisoned alive."

"......"

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows, paused and turned back to ask: "Do you know the executioner?"

"Yes, the great executioner of this era is called Al Taylor, also known as the Sword of Punishment. I... was fortunate enough to be killed by him."

"......" The scene fell silent again. Cheng Shi was happy, thinking that your acquaintance process was quite unique, but then he urged, "Don't interrupt, just get to the point."

“I know there is a very important prisoner imprisoned here. I inquired before coming in, and at this timeline, he is still imprisoned in there.

I want to hire a big guy to take me to find him, and then find some clues from him that are very important to me.

I have been trying to find out the truth of this matter for the past two months, and this may be the closest I have ever been to the truth.

Boss, I beg for your help. Of course, the reward will definitely satisfy you."

"Hmm? You have something good in your hand?

Why use good things to hire people instead of buying lives?

interesting. "

Cheng Shi became interested. He walked up to the believer of Order and asked with a smile, "What truth is so important that you have the courage to take over the Howling Iron Prison?

Explain clearly, I can think about it. "

"......"

The tall and thin man didn't want to say it, but he felt that the opportunity at this moment was too rare. He happened to meet a master who broke into the iron prison alone, and the most important thing was that this top player could communicate normally. Seeing that the answer he most expected might come today, after hesitating for a long time, he chose to be honest.

"I suspect that something is wrong with my benefactor [Order]!"

"!!!"

Cheng Shi's eyes fixed and became sharp in an instant.

The truth, this believer in [Order] has always been telling the truth.

What a sharp investigator! He actually found the problem on his benefactor. But to be honest, there was indeed a problem with [Order]. But how did he, a non-top player, know that?

Cheng Shi thought for a moment and felt that the problem might be with the important prisoner the other party mentioned, so he looked at the investigator with interest and said with a hint of interest:

"Interesting. Who is the prisoner you want to find?"

"Boss, you agreed?"

"Don't worry, just tell me first, and then I'll consider whether to agree or not."

The [Order] believer had no way back at this point, his face tightened slightly and he gritted his teeth, but he finally gave out the name.

"Chenosley, the former first-level inquisitor of the Grand Inquisition, is now imprisoned at the bottom of this Howling Prison!"

"!!!"

Cheng Shi's expression changed.

who! ?
