The noisy shouting first filled my ears, and then the familiar smell of gunpowder rushed into my nose.
Before Cheng Shi opened his eyes, his heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, why is there another war?
Isn't this an experiment of "Truth"? Why do I feel like I've been thrown back to Boro Heights again!?
As his uneasy thoughts gradually solidified, Cheng Shi's consciousness quickly returned. He first took a cautious step back, and then opened his eyes. With just one glance, he knew that [Fate] was indeed a good omen!
This is a sure thing, because it's my old friend:
Sage of life, Hu Xuan!
Sometimes [fate] is so magical. Cheng Shicai pretended in front of the doctor that he would go and ask Hu Xuan, and at this moment Hu Xuan appeared directly.
The envoy of [Birth] had just opened his eyes at this time, and the two people's gazes met tacitly across the round table at the first moment, and then both smiled.
They all felt that the game was stable.
Then the two of them quietly shifted their gazes and looked around, each of them looking around. The place they landed in was obviously a conference room, or to be more specific, a conference room belonging to the Tower of Reason and Quality, because the walls were covered with the logo and flags of the Tower of Reason and Quality.
In front of Cheng Shi was a huge round table, but this table, which seemed large enough to accommodate dozens of people, actually only had seven chairs, one of which was empty. On the other six chairs, there were six corpses lying on their backs or lying prone.
Looking at the appearance and clothing of these corpses, it is not difficult to find that they are all great scholars, and judging by the color of the scholar's ribbons on their chests...
Hmm? The learned chairman will! ?
As soon as this thought came to my mind, a loud bang suddenly came from outside the window.
The players who woke up frowned and looked, only to see that on another high tower outside the one they were in, there was a figure laughing crazily and carrying a trembling scholar. Amid the cheers of the people around him and the cries of the scholars below the tower, he madly let go of his hand and threw the scholar straight down.
“Ah—bang!”
The screams stopped abruptly, and the scholar fell to the ground and turned into a pool of blood and flesh. The players present stared at him, and the square-faced fat man next to Cheng Shi frowned even more, and uttered a name in an extremely complicated tone that shocked Cheng Shi:
"Galusa..."
who! ?
Cheng Shi was stunned, and immediately looked at the little fat man:
"The destruction of the Tower of Reason?
We ran into Galausa, so doesn’t that mean that those present are…”
"Yes, Chairman Erudite will!" another player spoke up.
This player was standing opposite Cheng Shi. He was big and strong, and his physique was very similar to Dayi, but his knowledge was obviously more than one level higher than Dayi's.
He raised the arm of the scholar closest to him, pointed his finger at each corpse on the table, and introduced the members of the Erudite Chairmanship who died here to everyone in a very strange tone:
"Volent, the pioneer of the Department of Consciousness and Belief; Galadelli, the leader of the Department of Life Extension; O'Neill, the head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering... These three are the top three most important figures in the Erudite Presidential Council.
There are also Burza, Asgis, and Nellyvere. Very good, except for the traitor Pelaya, all the others were wiped out.
According to the information I exchanged from the School of History, they should have all died at the hands of Galausa, so can anyone tell me who killed these great scholars before that madman did?
What a pity! I was hoping to extract fascinating truths from their mouths."
As he said this, the big man tore off Onir's arm and began to suck the blood from the broken arm greedily.
“Ah~
This is the breath of truth...
It's a pity, Onir, that you can't merge with me in a younger form."
The almost dark blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, dripping onto the floor and splashing all around. The other male player next to him with glowing white skin frowned, moved away from him, and said with disdain:
"Humph, how can there be any sanity in the Society of Physics with you around?"
Um?
Is this strong man from the Physical Society?
That's not surprising, as the Society of Physical Science is a well-known gathering place for crazy people, but it's rare to find someone this crazy.
Hu Xuan was also beside this man. She obviously knew this strong man. After seeing Cheng Shi's brows flash with doubt, she thought about it and made a decisive choice...
Serve!
Yes, Hu Xuan said nothing, lifted her skirt and stepped gracefully onto the table.
The round table is too big, and it would be a waste of time to go around it from any side, so it is better to take the shortest way.
Her somewhat exaggerated action undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention. Of course, everyone knew who she was, so everyone was not looking at her, but at her target.
Everyone who knew Hu Xuan knew that this Chosen One of God would always give birth to a child during the trial, so they all speculated whether this "stranger" who also looked somewhat familiar would be the father of her first child.
Normally, when seeing Hu Xuan doing this, Cheng Shi would have to step back ten steps to show respect. But this time, not only did he not step back, but he took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and took Hu Xuan off the table with a bright smile.
He knew that this was Hu Xuan building up her own power. A "prey" chosen by the God of Birth should be very safe, at least until she succeeded.
When Hu Xuan saw that Cheng Shi understood what she meant, she smiled and said:
