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 797 [Stupidity]!

To be honest, Wei Mu only knew that his benefactor had lost power, but he didn't know how.

Now it seems that sitting at this long table can indeed broaden one's horizons. At least this envoy of [Fraud] seems to know how his benefactor lost his power.

But Wei Mu didn't dare to ask, he realized the "rules" here, that is, he can listen to what others say, but he has no right to ask if he doesn't understand.

So the puppet continued to lower its head in silence, waiting for the double-commander opposite to serve as his substitute and ask his benefactor how he had lost his authority.

As expected, Avros was too curious. He pounced on the table and stared at Cheng Shi. The desire in his eyes was so strong that it almost dripped water.

No matter what the desire is, it is just desire.

Cheng Shi's eyelids jumped, he straightened his back and leaned back on the chair, trying to distance the two of them as much as possible, then smiled mysteriously:

"Don't ask me. I don't know even if I know, I wouldn't dare to tell you."

This sentence was pure nonsense. Cheng Shi did have some guesses in his mind, but before verifying it, he didn't dare to say "stupid" in private, especially in the presence of "stupid" believers, so he had to leave the answer to the unknown.

However, the speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Upon hearing this response, Avros immediately restrained his expression and sat up straight. A trace of awe flashed in his eyes, and he smiled a little stiffly:

"Is it related to... [Him]?"

Cheng Shi didn't expect that this could also allow Avros to connect. He nodded with a smile and said, "Yes."

"Very good, my brother. It seems that you have regained your memories much faster than I expected. Your understanding of [Him] has also begun to accelerate."

"Your help is indispensable to this, Avros. I will always remember this friendship."

As soon as he finished speaking, a bright moon rose into the sky.

The puppet on the other side of the long table was stunned by this sudden transformation. It opened and closed its mouth several times, and finally chose to remain silent.

There's nothing new about it. Don't the nobles of the Island of Hope always like to do something fancy when they eat? As an envoy born from the Island of Hope, Avros's behavior is not worthy of criticism.

But what is this "Him" that they are talking about?

Wei Mu became even more curious, and at this moment, Cheng Shi coughed twice, looked away and looked at the puppet again.

“I thought you were a one-in-a-million genius, but I never expected that all your assembled divinity was dripping from a container.

Of course, being able to control the type of faith that drips into the divinity you need is equally genius, but it's still a little less interesting than doing it yourself.

But what makes me curious is, as a player, where does your faith come from?

I don't believe that your white-eyed benefactor will give you all his faith, which is the foundation of all gods."

This question was asked on behalf of Hu Xuan. Cheng Shi was using the information he got from Hu Xuan to get Wei Mu's "results". Wei Mu did not doubt it. After all, it was normal for the envoy to know the function of the container. So in order to make the subsequent communication smoother, the puppet explained in a serious manner:

“This is just my humble opinion, just a suggestion.

I don’t know what faith is in your eyes. I only know that from realistic observation, faith is nothing more than life’s pursuit of a certain thought or will.

All beings pray for equality, and then [order] comes; all beings desire true knowledge, so [truth] appears; all beings express themselves, and then [war] prevails.

This is true for [civilization] and [chaos] as well.

So I often wonder, if I also become something that all living beings pursue, then can their recognition of me also be considered a kind of belief?

So I started to act towards this goal, and became the first on the road to godhood. When I spread the reputation of my [foolish] believer, some people began to... flatter me.

Flattery is not well-intentioned, but what I didn't expect was that even flattery is a kind of recognition, and this kind of recognition is exactly the "belief" I am looking for!

It's just that this "faith" has too many impurities, and the dripping divinity is unusable.

But as long as there are materials, no matter how many impurities there are, there is nothing that cannot be purified through experiments. So in this way, I mastered the method of dripping divinity and studied it for a long time.

It was only recently through the opportunity of the 0221 experiment that these combined divinities were revealed to others.

In this way, 0221 became a genius who discovered a method to piece together divinity, and I was just deconstructing his technology and replicating his methods. Not only would I not become the target of public criticism, but I could also quietly hide behind the scenes, transmitting divinity to the outside world while earning more "flattery" safely.

This is how I gained faith, Master Fool, do you think these things can inspire you? "

"......"

Yes, a lot of it. Not only was it inspiring, but it also made me feel ashamed and self-contemptful.

Of course, this is not what the clown thought, but what Hu Xuan thought.

The clown thought so too, but he forced himself not to think about it and instead looked at Hu Xuan happily.

This believer of [Birth] rarely missed Cheng Shi's sight, his expression slightly frozen, and he silently remembered everything in his heart.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi was even happier, but there was still one thing that puzzled him. According to Wei Mu, the other party only explained his research on faith, but did not say why he obtained this container so early.

So this is another player who, like Blind Man, had "encountered God" at a very early stage?

How come you all have adventures?
