When it comes to becoming a god, Cheng Shi has always believed that those who want to become gods have no subjective initiative.
Even if there is, it is useless, because the true God needs to rely on [Origin] to correct his name, and the subordinate God also needs the true God to give in and exercise authority on his behalf.
This creates an awkward situation, where all mortals' efforts can only win the favor of the gods and then be "granted" a position as a god.
He had never imagined that there was a kind of god that did not need recognition from other gods.
Thinking back to the small note that Mi Lao Zhang had handed to him after Sandles, it contained what the God of Fun had said when Mi Lao Zhang asked him about the existence of foolish play. He said:
“He has neither appeared nor disappeared.
When you know Him, you do not know Him.
When you understand Him, you don't understand Him.
Only He knows and understands Himself, and once outsiders truly know and understand Him, then He...
It is no longer He."
At this moment, combined with what the Fire of Hope said, Cheng Shi suddenly understood.
It turns out that back in the time of Sandles, [Fraud] had already given the answer to becoming a god. However, I hadn't thought of it at the time. I was still staring at the container, searching everywhere. Until today, I was once again enlightened by the flame of hope...
Yes, the present moment is when He knows and understands Himself.
In fact, the name "Yuxi" was probably "born" the moment I jokingly said this name to Zui Ge!
Cheng Shi was still sorting out his thoughts, but the Fire of Hope thought he was shocked and continued to talk about the "Path to Godhood" he had prepared for Cheng Shi.
"Based on my understanding of Deception's will, if you want to become His messenger, first of all, you must possess a divine name that will convince the world.
The name of this god can be strange, but it must remain mysterious.
Then comes the most important step, spreading the faith and attracting believers!
Faith is the foundation of the gods, and the spread of faith is not a one-time effort. The way of spreading it is of paramount importance. Since you are going to be a [Fraud] Messenger, you will not be naturally trusted by the world, so the strategy of publicizing it right from the start will definitely not work.
I suggest that this matter be spread in a small circle first. Although you are a destiny weaver, I also know that you are an old liar. Use your tricks to deceive a few mortals, preferably believers of [Fraud].
When you can outsmart them in deception, they will naturally be attracted to you. Then, you only need to slightly reveal some knowledge or means that only ordinary people can possess. Then, with the virtues of [fraudulent] believers... ahem, way of thinking, you probably don't need to say anything, they will also make endless associations about your identity.
As long as this step can be accomplished, the power of faith will be reaped next.
I understand His believers. These scammers will spare no effort to borrow your identity in order to spread your divine name in disguise. You just need to show up more often and leave clues among different mortals. They will naturally connect everything and take the initiative to "dig" you out from the past history.
Then, you just need to find a major event in past history and declare it, and your lie will become a past that once existed in the cognition of mortals, and your supporters will also write a footnote about your existence.
This is the method used by [fraud] to pollute [memory]. Your deceitful benefactor used it skillfully, so I think you will be no worse at it.
After that, you will gain a batch of faith from the [Fraud] believers, but this is not enough, because this is originally the [Fraud] faith pool, and you can only be regarded as receiving the protection of the benefactor by doing this.
Faith is not about keeping, but about fighting.
So what you need to do is spread your faith, preferably by doing a spectacular act that can be seen by the world and attract a group of new believers. In this way, your faith will be deeply rooted and your character will be solidified.
Finally, you...what's wrong with you?
Why do you keep blinking?
Are you questioning my strategy?
Humph, do you know how long I spent polishing this set of [Fraud] orders to make them divine?
For many years, I have silently felt the will of [Fraud] in every communication with Him. Thanks to my birth in [Destiny], I can see the essence to some extent. I gradually understood His will and grasped His temperament.
This is definitely the method of promotion He is happy to see. You just need to do it, and then this position of God...
Enough, Destiny Weaver, you are looking at me like a fool!
I warn you, you are not yet His messenger. As an ally, and still a mortal, you should show some respect to me, the only God in the Void."
“…”
Cheng Shi blinked, shook his head, and nodded, acting like a humanoid robot.
It’s not because of shock, but because of... confusion.
He was indeed confused.
I don't disrespect you, I respect you too much.
You are right. It sounds like this is how the [Fraud] Order should be created.
But the question is, why do you want to repeat the path I have taken?
You installed a surveillance camera on me!?
Although most of what Hope Fire said had become his past, Cheng Shi did not feel happy about having completed this journey ahead of time. All he felt was powerlessness in the face of what was already happening.
Good, it’s settled again!
If it weren't for God's push, how could he have made such smooth progress?
But is this driving god really just [fraud]?
It is true that the road under his feet leads to the position of the [Fraud] Herald, but think about it, since even the Herald abandoned by [Fate] can figure out such a path, then as the brother god of [Fraud], the true [Fate], with His ability to see through the essence, can't He see it?
Had He foreseen all this, and therefore agreed to merge with [Fraud]?
Is He using the favor bestowed upon Himself by [Fraud] to complete the polishing of His sacrifice?
Was the so-called predetermined path that he had walked a conspiracy from the beginning, just to get the eyes of the Fearful Sect to look at him, so that he could gain the divine support of the Fearful Sect that were strangers to him, so that the sacrifice could complete the "integration" of all beliefs?
For a moment, Cheng Shi's thoughts were in a mess. He always felt that he was getting deeper and deeper into this situation and there was no way to escape.
His answers, his hopes, his future and his fears had long since merged together, no longer separating them.
The scene fell silent again, and at this time Cheng Shi also silently asked Zui Ge a question in his heart:
"Brother Zui, are you also part of this establishment?"
Cheng Shi remembered that the name "Yuxi" was finalized because Zui Ge gave his approval at the first time, so he had to suspect that Yuxi's lips might also be one of the keys in this game.
Even... is it possible that it once betrayed [Fraud] and switched to [Fate]?
Just as Cheng Shi was complaining, the Lips of Foolhood responded, and its response was the same as always...
"Aren't you a human being? When did you become a chicken butt?"
“......?”
Cheng Shi's eyelids twitched, and he counted on his fingers how many times he was scolded.
