Chapter 064 The Most Precious Gift (XVIII)

When the hearing detected Kai, the other four senses seemed to awaken as well.

At least at this moment, the sandstorm-like aggression of the God of Carnival spread inch by inch in the temple, silently invading every inch of his senses.

Although he was clearly indoors, Dong Jin inexplicably had the illusion of being under the scorching sun and raging sand.

Fortunately, he did not meet Kai in that desert.

Otherwise, in that place that was so compatible with Kai, what he would have to experience might not be today's journey to find someone, but a death adventure that almost broke people apart.

- Although the current situation is not much better.

At this time, the temple was still silent, and only the sound of Kai's approaching footsteps became clearer and clearer.

Dong Jin silently estimated the distance in his heart.

After hesitating for a moment between pretending to be stupid and not exposing Kai's disguise or directly revealing his identity, he finally chose to neutralize the two when Kai was one step away from him, and handed the initiative to this god:

"Are you the one who plays the God of Carnival this time?"

"You"?

Kai, who was originally planning to pass by Dong Jin, stopped directly at this unexpected flattering style.

And once he stopped, it was difficult to move forward.

The God of Carnival was also wearing a mask at this moment. The sun pattern mask covering his entire face concealed his expression, and only the dark golden eyes slowly drooping behind the mask showed the fact that he was staring at Dong Jin.

After a while, the god almost sighed and said the first sentence of the night:

"Dong Jin, you have already exhausted all my patience."

Then the second sentence followed closely: "Interestingly, no matter how many times, you make me irresistibly partial to you."

Kai has been waiting for Dong Jin.

He didn't mean after he raised the gem, nor did he mean when midnight started.

What he really meant was the end of the first dungeon.

Kai has never been a patient person - when he asked Laki for details in the desert before, he was too lazy to say similar words a second time, which shows his attitude towards repetition.

But he met Dong Jin.

For this reason, he, who had never been chosen by the gods, threw olive branches to three dungeons in a row, and even went to the dungeon in person to wait for the other party's response. Even after he noticed that Dong Jin and Lei Ming seemed to have a connection, he chose to let people test him first.

He is the god of carnival.

Once something that cannot bring joy happens, he should never test it, but lightly cut off everything, and then enjoy other pleasures by himself.

Because he is such a wicked person who does things without evidence and just for pleasure.

But Dong Jin is too much to his liking.

So he not only chose to test him, but also came to this city of carnival regardless of the result of many mistakes after the test.

From beginning to end, he did not test because of doubt, but because he was reluctant to do so.

However, his retreat has its limits.

Kai had already seen the peculiarity of Dong Jin's eyes. Originally, he planned to erase this natural cheat and if Dong Jin could still find his existence in the first place, he would deceive himself and write off everything that happened before.

However, Dong Jin missed him when he first stepped into the Temple of Carnival.

This meant that the attraction between them was not so strong that he was indispensable. The

reason why Kai hadn't left was not because he was still waiting for Dong Jin to find him. He was just too lazy to think about it anymore, so he planned to stay here until the carnival was over, and then put an end to this long-standing entanglement with the Chosen One.

- But Dong Jin turned back.

- Not only did he come back here, he also said such overly cute words.

So Kai, who always decides what to do next, overturned all his previous thoughts and chose to stay according to his instinct.

There was no other way. Because it was Dong Jin, he was always willing to give him one more chance.

"Try to find me three times, Dong Jin."

"This is the first time."

At this moment, Kai, who was standing beside Dong Jin, looked at him deeply and whispered.

It is said that the universe where Dong Jin lives adheres to the principle of equal exchange.

He had extended an olive branch to Dong Jin three times, and in exchange Dong Jin looked for him three times tonight, which was fair.

After saying this, the god of ecstasy who had stayed for a long time and finally set off again seemed to suddenly remember something when he was about to pass by Dong Jin, so he left a last sentence with an ambiguous meaning: "Next time, remember to open your eyes to me."

- When you open your eyes and speak to me, I will definitely respond.

After all, he was attracted by those eyes at the very beginning.

If Dong Jin had just said that to him with his eyes open, he probably wouldn't have remembered that he had asked the other party to look for him three times, but would have happily handed the gem symbolizing the winning number to the only chosen one he wanted.

Dong Jin didn't open his eyes again until Kai's footsteps were completely far away.

His analysis of Kai's character was correct.

This person seems to be indifferent to everything, but in fact, his desire for control is also extremely strong.

If he had chosen to continue to play dumb in front of Kai just now, pretending not to recognize him, I am afraid that the fragments of daylight in this copy would have passed him by just like Kai's footsteps just now.

But looking for him three times... Dong Jin rubbed his forehead with a headache.

As for where Kai would appear the third time, he knew it in his mind.

But he couldn't be sure of what kind of appearance this free-spirited god of ecstasy would be placed in the second time. After all

, he didn't have the ability to read minds. As for believing in fate and trying to hit the jackpot, it was not something he, who had traded out his luck early, should think about.

He was not stingy when it came to risking his life, but to pin everything on something so illusory was simply courting death.

As his thoughts raced, Dong Jin suddenly thought of someone.

Now that the "Eye of Truth" was limited in its use, he could not find Kai for the time being, but someone's talent was born for searching.

Thinking of this, Dong Jin turned around and walked towards the tavern he had left earlier.

In fact, the person most suitable for finding people was Terry, who had a talent for "tracking", but Terry had died in the desert - Dong Jin even suspected that Kai had thought of this at the time and cut off his way to take shortcuts in advance.

But methods are dead, and people are alive.

Terry is gone, but he still has Oz!

Thinking about it this way, the universe where Oz is really talented!

When Dong Jin returned to the tavern, Oz was no longer there, and Gale, who was following him, of course, had also disappeared. But these two were much easier to find than Kai. Within two hours, he found their traces in another tavern.

Seeing that Gale had changed his hand to another kind of fine wine and even changed his female companion, Dong Jin couldn't help but be speechless.

He could see that Gale was having a really wild time during the carnival.

Dong Jin didn't argue about this matter, he just looked around.

After he found Oz's figure not far away again, he said to Gale: "What's the matter? Do you think the God of Carnival and wine are more suitable? You just go to the tavern all day long?"

If he had known that these two were going to the tavern, why would he struggle for so long in the busy streets.

In response, Gale said innocently: "You shouldn't ask me this question, you should ask Oz."

"Maybe the God of Carnival left him with a stereotype. He was so self-righteous that he believed his talent was no longer effective, so he started to look for him frantically in various bars. However, he didn't see the God of Carnival at all, but I saw him drink a lot of wine."

"Before you left in a hurry, I thought you found someone. I didn't expect that the winner this time was so good at hiding."

At this moment, Gale, who didn't know that he had already said the truth, continued: "Look at you now, are you looking for Oz on purpose? He is not in a good state to communicate with, so be careful."

Dong Jin nodded indifferently after hearing this.

In fact, he didn't need to communicate with Oz at all.

He took off his outermost cape and casually put on a sun-patterned mask he bought on the previous street. It was said that this was a limited edition for the festival. Anyway, 50% of the people in this city wore similar stuff.

According to Dong Jin's observation, the only difference between them and Kai's was that the latter was more expensive. If he really relied on the style of the mask to find someone, he might not be able to find him even if he was blind, let alone before 24 o'clock.

After completing these preparations, Dong Jin didn't say a word, but just slowly passed by Oz's desk. The next second, Oz, who was still throwing coins without giving up, called him sharply: "Dong Jin!"

Just like Dong Jin could quickly recognize the other two MVPs by their figures, as the chief MVP, others paid as much attention and analysis to him as he did. Any strong man with a little ambition would study him.

Although Oz was not in good condition recently, he was not completely blind.

So he recognized Dong Jin instantly.

Dong Jin paused slightly after being called. Then he looked at Oz who had not taken off his mask, and after a long time he suddenly realized, "Hmm...you are Oz? I was wondering why there was someone in the bar who kept throwing coins, it's not strange if it's you."

"Why did you suddenly call me? I have something else to do. If you're not in a hurry, let's talk slowly after I win the MVP this time."

Dong Jin's attitude of being sure that he was the MVP of this dungeon provoked Oz very well.

This was not enough. He, who was best at sarcasm, even added with a smile: "What should we talk about then? Let's talk about how to keep the coin with the back facing up. This should be a necessary skill for playing tricks? I see you are quite good at this, and it happens that I have quite a bit of experience in this area."

After lightly laying out the bomb, Dong Jin left without looking back.

Only Oz's face, which was hidden behind the mask and turned red with anger at Dong Jin's effortless behavior, was left.

However, as Oz recalled what Dong Jin had said, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Wait. What does it mean that the back is facing up every time?

Oz looked abruptly at the coin on the table - in his eyes, the coin was still standing upright on the table.

Oz accepted the ineffectiveness of his talent before because he thought that the winner this time might be the God of Rapture himself. For him, it was not difficult to accept that his talent was ineffective against gods and demons.

But Dong Jin had no reason to lie about such an obvious thing. And judging from his impetuous posture just now, it was obvious that he was just passing by temporarily. So... Oz

came to his senses and directly grabbed a passerby and asked, "Which side of this coin is facing up?" When he got the reply "Of course it's the back, are you blind to ask this?", he, who was used to walking alone, finally realized

that there was something wrong with his perception. At this time, he didn't have time to figure out who confused his five senses and made him think that his talent was invalid.

Out of his natural distrust of the trial participants, he simply confirmed his own occupation results through the passers-by around him.

As he approached his destination step by step, Dongjin, who should have been far away, had already fallen far behind him.

Another six hours passed in a flash.

It was noon, and even though the sun was high in the sky, Dongjin no longer had any intention of being impatient.

He never underestimated the ability of any MVP.

Even though Oz's performance in this instance was not up to par, it was due to various reasons. No matter what, strong is strong. Once this man regains his composure and returns to the most familiar track, he will definitely go straight to the road of victory.

However, this road is too crowded, so crowded that two people cannot walk, so he has to get there first.

Then another hour passed.

It was at this time that Dong Jin's long wait was finally rewarded.

When Oz suddenly replaced the item in his hand with a ten-sided dice, and after confirming the direction with a passerby, he put away the dice and walked towards the southeast, Dong Jin, who had already memorized the city map, instantly realized his final destination.

——In that direction is the most prosperous tavern in the city.

Dong Jin realized this and arrived there first.

Although he had previously complained about Gale and Oz always going to bars, he himself had also been to bars to find people.

After all, carnival and fine wine are undoubtedly a perfect match.

Even the God of Carnival himself is like a strong liquor that burns everything once it is ignited. It only takes one second to burn people to ashes without restraint. No wonder others have a stereotyped impression of him. Not

to mention the Kale that Kai pretended to be in the first copy, who was indeed surrounded by the heavy smell of alcohol that could not be covered by the rain.

It was not the breath of a drunk person, but more like the original brew of liquor, which could easily make people dizzy.

No matter from which point of view, Kai and liquor are a match made in heaven.

From this, it can be inferred that the probability of him choosing the tavern as the second stop is far greater than other places.

This time, Dong Jin walked in with his eyes open.

He did not fall for the second time in the same thing, and he counted seconds in his heart the moment he entered. If he didn't read enough seconds in any direction, he would notice it immediately with his alertness fully aroused.

So as soon as he entered, he found Kai with black hair and black eyes, wearing a mask, in the corner of the tavern.

The moment Dong Jin stepped in, Kai, who was casually listening to the poet's singing, looked over as if he had sensed something.

Then the god of ecstasy slightly pushed open the mask on the lower half of his face, raised his thin lips and mouthed to him:

"-This is the second time."
