The fire of the Inquisition has not yet been extinguished, but the fading flames and scattered sparks can no longer stop the steps of one of God's chosen ones.
As more and more frightened people gathered outside the court, Zhang Jizu felt that he could not wait any longer. He had to go to the ruins and find Gou Feng's remains before the church members rushed in.
But at this moment, loud noises came from the direction of the church!
The purple lightning flashed and instantly almost illuminated the entire Dolgod.
Tonight was destined to be a restless night. Zhang Jizu stopped and looked in the direction where the lightning flashed, as if wondering if Cheng Shi had encountered an accident.
He really wanted to go back and take a look, but he couldn't let go of the "task" on him, so he could only speed up his pace and try to get back as soon as possible to prevent Cheng Shi from getting into trouble.
But at this moment, just as he was about to step into the ruins of the Inquisition, a man covered in burnt blood suddenly fell in front of him.
Zhang Jizu's eyes narrowed slightly, his body paused, and he subconsciously raised the scalpel in his hand. However, when he squinted his eyes and glanced at the unrecognizable face, he found that the dark face seemed...
It looks a little familiar.
Cheng Shi! ?
This "wood elf" that was specifically protected by [Fraud] actually appeared in front of him in this way!
He realized that Cheng Shi must have come here by activating the gambling device that would never be lost, because to be on the safe side, he had hung the dice that Cheng Shi gave him on the only tree that had not been cut down, and the place where Cheng Shi started to fall happened to be the top of that tree.
Interesting, like Zhen Xin, he can borrow the power of another personality?
No, now is not the time to think about this. What happened to him and why was he struck like this?
Countless thoughts flashed through Zhang Jizu's mind in an instant, but these distracting thoughts did not affect the speed of his attack at all.
He suddenly retracted the force to pull back the scalpel, then gently supported Cheng Shi's back with his other hand and fired an extremely strong healing spell.
Holy light burst out and enveloped Cheng Shi's whole body, making him feel like he was bathed in spring breeze.
But it's no use.
Because Cheng Shi just looked miserable, [Eternal Life] had already locked the upper limit of his vitality, except that his skin and nerves were numb from the electricity, he was basically fine.
Not only was he fine, he was also in extremely good spirits. He even remembered to say hello to Squint Eyes while falling.
"Hey, Mimi... Lao Zhang, nice to see you again."
Hearing this powerful voice, Zhang Jizu's eyes twitched and he withdrew his hand, allowing Cheng Shi to fall heavily to the ground.
"Bang——"
"grass......"
This bastard is definitely taking revenge!
Cheng Shi fell hard, and many of the burnt blood scabs on his body were broken.
Zhang Jizu frowned slightly at his appearance, then turned his head to look at the place where the thunder broke out in the distance and asked in confusion:
"You made that noise?"
Cheng Shi ignored him, holding the thing in his arms tightly and just laughing, laughing crazily.
Zhang Jizu was even more confused. He looked at Cheng Shi's arms as if he wanted to know what good things this unreliable wood elf had snatched. But after looking at him carefully for a moment, his eyes suddenly sank and became deep in an instant.
"You used the scapegoat?
Who killed you, Moshu?"
His voice was solemn, and he swiftly took out a match and a bucket of gasoline. His steady expression showed that he wanted to burn away the trouble in Cheng Shi's hand.
But just as he was about to lean over and take out the things in Cheng Shi's arms, Cheng Shi's smile froze and he quickly stepped back, shaking his head wildly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:
"Don't do it if you want to talk. This doll is not meant to die for me. Don't burn it..."
"It's not you?" Zhang Jizu was stunned, and then he seemed to think of something. His eyes, which had been squinting, suddenly widened and he asked in shock, "Could it be..."
Cheng Shi paused as he was retreating, then looked up and laughed, a laugh that was bright and crazy.
"Hahahaha, yes, it's Mo Shu's!"
It’s Mo Shu’s!!!
These four words were like a huge thunder exploding in Zhang Jizu's ears. After hearing these words, this usually steady God of Death was stunned for three seconds before he realized what Cheng Shi meant!
"You killed him and then revived him with a scapegoat?"
He was completely stunned, his tone filled with disbelief. He really wanted to ask Cheng Shi why he did this, but the next second his eyes flashed with a gleam, as if he instantly understood what Cheng Shi meant, and then he used the [Death] resurrection technique on the surrogate doll in Cheng Shi's arms, which was only left with broken skin and flesh!
He plans to resurrect this scapegoat!
This time, Cheng Shi did not dodge. Instead, he tacitly placed the remains of the puppet on the ground, then cautiously took two steps back and held a brand new scalpel in his hand.
The silver-white blade reflected the bright moonlight, forming a sharp contrast with the charred blood stains all over his body, just like the colors of life and death, but who could have thought that beneath the charred black was the new life after the thunder bath, while the snow-white blade would only bring death.
At this time, Cheng Shi was concentrating and staring at the resurrected scapegoat wholeheartedly.
At the moment when the resurrection spell with a pale green light hit the charred remains of the little man, the little man, who was as broken as rotten meat, actually twitched his legs and feet and slowly came back to life, and the ugly face with blood and flesh surging slowly turned into the appearance of Mo Shu!
A miniature, scaled-down version of the scavenger appeared between the two of them.
"!!!"
Zhang Jizu's pupils suddenly shrank. It was indeed him!
Yes, Cheng Shi did use a scapegoat, but he did not let the doll die for him. Instead, it blocked the violent lightning strike of [Destiny Also Has Wrong Paths] for the scavenger!
As for why, it was naturally because Zhang Jizu had told him that the surrogate doll would steal the identity of the surrogate when it was resurrected.
If I have been killed once, how can I ensure that I will not continue to be in danger after being resurrected?
Cheng Shi knew very well that he was not Zhang Jizu, not the chosen one of the God of Death who could never die. He could not guarantee that he would be able to easily destroy the substitute puppet that died for him after his resurrection, and he could not accept that this strange puppet would steal his identity after it was accidentally resurrected.
Since nothing can be guaranteed, why use it to save your life?
Think about it from another perspective: why can't we throw these "uncertainties" to the enemy and use this surrogate puppet as a weapon to steal the enemy's identity?
Yes, of course!
So when Cheng Shi just got the scapegoat, he didn't treat this [foolish] creation as a life-saving prop, but on a whim, he studied the dirty stuff and hid it!
And Mo Shu is the first victim of this dirty thing!
