Well, the scholar made a pact of truth, and the prisoner broke the shackles of silence.
The fraudulent heart-to-heart meeting went smoothly.
Seeing how frank the two were, Cheng Shi also became frank.
He glanced around, passing through the crowd, and after "repeatedly" confirming that there was no one else around, he cautiously and carefully spoke out the "secret" that had to be guaranteed by an oath.
"The Firebringer."
As soon as these three words came out, three of the five people present immediately tensed up.
Ji Yue could not be hidden from this subconscious reaction. She looked around with interest, then looked at Cheng Shi with burning eyes, waiting for what was to come.
Fang Shiqing's head was buzzing. She had guessed this moment, but also hadn't guessed it.
She stared at Cheng Shi blankly, wondering whether Cheng Shi's mask had any binding force, and whether the two people in front of her would abide by their oath not to leak the information.
She thought a lot and for a long time, but the interesting thing was that the only thing she didn't think of was killing the two non-fire-transmitting and lawful people in front of her.
Cheng Shi ignored the different looks of the people in front of him and continued speaking.
There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes and a determined smile on his face.
“I wonder if everyone present has ever thought about where the world will go now that the Gods have sent down games.
What will happen to the humans who are captured as players?
In the millions of years since the birth of mankind, we have never encountered a disaster like the one we are experiencing now.
[Game of Faith] Although it is a game, the price of failure, as everyone should know very well, is death.
The whole world is imprisoned in the game called [Colosseum of the Gods], and there is no other choice but to obey their will.
Regardless of gender, age, strength, weight, or size, everyone is struggling. Is this what we want?
No, it's not!
This is just what They want, and we can't say no.
But can we really not refuse?
When I reached 1200 points, I saw that the world was full of despair;
When I reached 1600 points, I found that there was still life in [Faith Game];
When I reached 2000 points, I felt that the secret of [the Gods] had finally been revealed;
When I reached 2400 points, I was thinking... why can't I be one of those sitting on the high throne?"
"......"
"......"
"......"
Cheng Shi's expression did not change at all. He just smiled slightly and said these words.
But to everyone, this statement was like a bolt from the blue!
Except Ji Yue, everyone was stunned.
The Fire Bearer was confused, because what Cheng Shi said had nothing to do with the Fire Bearer's original intention.
The prisoner was also confused, because this organization didn't sound like one that a player of his level could join.
Only Ji Yue, who appeared calm and composed on the surface, but whose inner ardent admiration for this attitude almost filled her entire soul!
The wildness and recklessness of [War], at this moment, had a peak impact on her!
Not in body, but in soul.
Thousands of guns resonate!
"You think I'm crazy?
No, I'm not crazy, I'm sane.
This is not an illusory fantasy, nor is it my wishful thinking.
because......
He once told a certain player that humans can become gods! "
“!!!!!!”
“Crash——”
"Bang——"
“Ka-ka-ka—”
The hunter was dumbfounded, the prisoner's chains fell off, the poet's book slipped out of his hand, and the knight clenched his fists.
Only a "calm" scholar was left, motionless, but when she looked at Cheng Shi, her eyes were clearly filled with greedy curiosity and crazy sense of identification.
"Yes, you heard it right, humans can become gods.
After learning the secret that the Gods wanted to keep hidden the most, the Firebringer was born.
Born in the hands of that player, born at the starting point of the road to becoming a god.
He continued to explore all possible ways to become a god, not because he wanted to become a god, but because he felt that human beings should not be manipulated, enslaved, and teased in this way.
Even if this civilization is not so perfect, even if this world is not so noble, it is mankind's own world. Why should it become the playground of the Gods?
But what if!
What if a human appeared on the throne of the gods!
So under his protection, does mankind have a new future?
A predictable future that is not at the mercy of others!
So, you know why I have to be cautious and why I dare not speak out.
Because, those who are on the throne of God we want to fight against, and those who are on the throne of God we want to replace are also those who are on the throne of God.
Once our existence is discovered by them, we will face the wrath of the Gods, erasure and annihilation with no future.
Maybe you will find it ridiculous.
I feel that even the top players’ abilities were bestowed by them. How could they become gods with these?
But, how do you know if you don’t try?
And I, and we, are the ones walking on this path to becoming a god, the ones chosen by him!
Pass on the fire, pass on the fire, what is passed on is not the fire of continuation, but the hope of becoming a god.
We identify with him, we support him, and we follow him.
We try our best to find the path to becoming a god, and then, at the most appropriate time and at the most perfect node, push the most suitable candidate onto the 'throne'!
