Today's silence is just like fate.
This is not to say that silence is bad, but rather to praise His tolerance.
Even though the eyes of the Foolish Puppet of the Leaky Realm trembled slightly from the blasphemy of the Lips of Fools, He still did not punish Cheng Shi in any way, just as His will would, even forgiveness was silent.
Of course, it's also possible that Cheng Shi's identity left Him with no other choice, but in any case, Cheng Shi was very grateful.
He pointed to his mouth, then to himself, his anxious eyes clearly saying:
Great silence, you'd be better off letting me speak than making it speak.
Loujie Moou deeply agreed, and the next second, Yuxi Zhi Chu was muted, and Cheng Shi lifted the silencing.
The feeling was subtle. Cheng Shi felt as if someone had snapped their fingers near his mouth, and then his throat started working again.
"I...can speak?"
He touched his mouth, then suddenly curled his lips into a sneer and said:
"Brother Mouth, thank you for your foolish act that brought me the answer."
I'm sure you can now empathize with my happiness.
"Yes, you did empathize; you tacitly agreed."
Having said that, he ignored the somewhat trembling, foolish lips and solemnly bowed to [Silence]:
"Praise...fear, for it is fear that brought you to me!"
"My lord, you surely know why I have come, so I will not waste any more time. I wish to know if you are aware of the changes that [deception] has brought to the world?"
Cheng Shi's tone was extremely sincere, even more so than when he was in the Fishbone Hall.
If this sincerity were offered to the Void, perhaps no one could have imagined how radiant the Void would be at that moment.
However, here, Cheng Shi's sincerity seemed to be like casting pearls before swine, receiving no response whatsoever.
The dull and mechanical Loujie Mo'ou fell into eternal silence once again, motionless and uttering no words, just staring straight at Cheng Shi, making him increasingly uneasy.
Why don't you say something?
I've been communicating with you so sincerely, and you haven't even reacted. But when that idiot insulted you, you barely blinked...
Sir, your response mechanism makes it hard not to think the wrong way. You don't actually like this kind of thing, do you?
"......"
Cheng Shiren was numb, and dared not curse, so he had no choice but to use another plan for worshipping the gods.
There has to be some gain!
"My lord, I know that you always uphold your will and have never broken it."
But I know even more that you must have feelings for this world that are different from others, otherwise you wouldn't have sided with [deception] and resisted [the origin].
People generally believe that silence means never expressing anything, but I feel that you are always expressing yourself; the fact that silence is everywhere is the best proof of that.
It is only because people know so little and act foolishly that you are unwilling to share with them.
Ignorance will inevitably lead to silence; the evolution of fate has already explained everything.
I understand you, and I am self-aware. I may not be wise, but I am not a fool either.
I never expected you to break your silence for someone as insignificant as me. I only wanted even the slightest guidance from you, for the sake of my predetermined misfortune, for the sake of my continued usefulness to this world, for the sake of my shared fear with you...
Bless this world one more time, great God of Silence!
"......"
These words were truly Cheng Shi's heartfelt words. He didn't have much sincerity left for the gods; he had staked almost all of it on the Fear faction.
His experience of a fake curtain call taught him that without divine support, it would be difficult for a mortal to turn the tide. Therefore, he could only use his remaining sincerity as leverage to win the support of the gods.
Especially when they sense that silence doesn't resist them, this urge to try becomes even stronger.
Seeing that the impermanent puppet remained unmoved, Cheng Shi gritted his teeth and unleashed a wicked trick.
"If you don't object... I'll take that as your consent?"
"......"
At this moment, the Leaky Realm Silent Puppet finally felt the established value of the gold, as if He saw one of His believers appear before Him again.
"Fine!" Cheng Shi had no other options, so he decisively changed the subject. "I'll pretend you don't know anything. It was all the work of the God of Music. He deceived all the gods in order to make the end of the era appear absolutely real..."
But I still have a question.
You should know about the real universe. I saw a huge puppet corpse in the real universe. It was not dead, but was in disguise.
I had thought that the Silence might be hiding something... uh... related to the secrets of the Creator, but when I got close to Him, I found that He was actually trying to assimilate me!
My lord, I am not saying that assimilation is wrong, but that He did not assimilate everything around Him, but only the life that entered His body.
I find this somewhat difficult to understand. If He is spreading His will, the scope of that spread is too limited; but if not, what is He doing?
This question has finally received a response!
Cheng Shi never expected that the seemingly indifferent "Silence" would slowly begin to move after hearing Cheng Shi's description.
The eyes of the Leaky Realm Silent Puppet swayed more violently, as if expressing shock. At the same time, its limbs, no longer stiff, slowly stretched out and lay flat in the void.
When Cheng Shi saw the final form of the Silent Puppet, he was stunned, because it was clearly a one-to-one replica of the Leaky World Silent Puppet in the real universe!
