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 655: The Abnormality of “Not Being Beaten”

“She was in so much pain, I helped her get some temporary relief, so that we would have three people.

It's a pity that my ball of wool was wasted.

What are you looking at? I have always been so kind. No need to praise me. Give all the praise to our benefactor. It is He who guided me to do so.

Let's go my friends, now is the most efficient solution.

As for you, Aromanni, I believe you will stay here and help us collect some useful information as much as possible, right?"

Alomani was terrified. Her face turned pale and she nodded frantically, like a chick pecking at rice.

“I like the shantytown because the people here are really easy to talk to.”

Is this how you calculate whether communication is good or not?

The blind man was somewhat helpless. She shook her head and sighed, "Every time my impression of you becomes clearer, you overturn and erase it in time. Cheng Shi, have you always been so careful?"

"Be careful, what do you mean be careful? Are there enemies here?"

"...Forget it. Maybe you have always been so cautious, but the Firebringer is not worth your time and energy. Qin Xin, let's go."

As she spoke, the blind woman took the lead and walked out of the shack. But after taking only two steps, she suddenly turned around and asked Cheng Shi in confusion:

"By the way, this time, why didn't you use the [memory] of [death] to confirm what you just asked?"

Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, then he raised his lips into a playful smile: "Why bother showing off in front of an expert? There is a believer of [Memory] here, and he has not made any move. Why should I show off my skills? Don't you think so, Qin Xin?"

Qin Xin smiled slightly, glanced at Xi Luolin in his hand, and shook his head: "Don't waste your energy. I believe our friend. Your inquiry is very comprehensive. [Memory] is of no use."

Having said that, this time he took the lead to leave the shack. The blind man raised his eyebrows and followed closely behind.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Shi frowned.

This believer of [Memory] is becoming more and more mysterious. Judging from the beginning of this trial, he seems to... have not used the power of [Memory].

Of course, what Cheng Shi believes in as “using” is to personally use the power of faith, rather than borrowing some props of [memory].

But this is not the strangest thing. The strangest thing is the blind man's attitude. The question asked by the prophet after pausing did not seem to be directed at him at all.

hiss--

Does she also have doubts about Qin Xin's identity?

Could it be that there is some unrevealed secret between the founder of the Firebearer and the Firefighters?

Cheng Shi was happy. He silently took note of this matter, then randomly chose a direction and walked towards the depths of the slum area.

But just as he stepped out of the door, he suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten the time, so he hurriedly looked at the watch in his hand and found that it was exactly the hour in a few seconds.

Cheng Shi's eyes fixed, and he looked up instantly. He saw that the blind man had walked a long distance away and was about to turn the corner. He shouted to stop the blind man, pointed at his wrist, and said, "You two, be careful."

The blind man understood and nodded with some relief. However, when he turned back to look for Qin Xin, he found that the leader had already turned the corner and left with peace of mind.

It seems that there is no danger here.

She smiled slightly, did some divination, and then took the dice with a 2 and continued walking forward with a strange look on her face.

It seems that the direction I chose is wrong?

Cheng Shi, who was behind all this, naturally couldn't see it, so he immediately took action, returning to the edge of the shack along the same route he had come. Enduring the filthy noise all around him, he threw the dice in his hand one by one at the door of every shack he passed by.

Yes, he withdrew from the center and planned to explore the periphery again.

Two fire bearers are enough in the central area. Cheng Shi is more concerned about the mud houses that look like sentry posts outside the slum area. These buildings are like tentacles surrounding the slums, closely contacting other areas, forces, and people of the Falling Gate. Investigating here will obviously pull out more networks of relationships and expand more clues.

So he set a target and began to search the outermost area of ​​the slum area.

He originally thought that no matter how corrupt, shameful, and filthy this shantytown was, there should always be some people doing real work in the sentry tower that served as eyes, right?

As a result, Cheng Shi turned around half a circle and found that he was wrong, extremely wrong.

There is absolutely no difference between the outside and the inside. Some are playing, some are drinking, some are being whipped, and some are being punished. The variety and names of the activities are astonishing.

These members of the Extreme Desire Brotherhood did not regard this place as a checkpoint for keeping watch, but rather as a novel experience area that was different from the shack style.

Look, they can still serve customers while on duty. How dedicated they are.

"......"

Cheng Shi was numb. He washed his eyes with water as he walked, thinking that he really couldn't touch the belief of "defilement" at all.

Fortunately, I stick to my heart and never give in to desires.

After exploring for a while, Cheng Shi came to the other side of the slum area. Not far to the northeast was the cell where Adric was imprisoned before. He thought that if he didn't gain anything else, he might as well bring back Xiluolin's brother. By controlling two local tyrants at once, perhaps the operations in the next few days would be smoother.

But at this moment, just when Cheng Shi no longer had any illusions about the slum area, something unusual occurred.

Just as Xi Luolin said, when everyone is being beaten but you are not, you are the anomaly.
