With Crown's encouragement, the residents of Sandales seemed to see a ray of light, a divine light that would dispel the severe cold.
So the whole town took action, began to spread the faith, and worshiped [Fraud]. Everyone hoped that [Fraud] could bring a little warmth to this place abandoned by the gods, even Clown himself thought so.
This was probably the happiest time for him since he became a clown. He practiced the will of [Fraud] with his own actions and spread the good name of the benefactor to all those who came to the theater. Under his leadership, when everyone was praying collectively to the gods, even the wood carvings and portraits of the clown were placed in the front!
In this cold abyss where people have no concept of gods, Clown becomes the person closest to gods in people's eyes, the messenger of [Fraud] that descends on Sandres, and His spokesperson in the world.
“It is indeed Him.”
Now, Ai Si was finally sure that she had found the past of Lord Yuxi. Of course, it could also be Lord Yuxi's past.
Cheng Shi and Zhang Jizu made no comment on her excitement, but continued watching in silence.
Soon, faith swept the entire town, and even more violent snowstorms also swept the entire town. Joyful smiles bloomed on everyone’s face, even though they had no confidence in their hearts, even though their minds were full of fear, they had to smile because He was the God who held joy.
But soon, the people of Sandles could no longer laugh.
Because as the faith of the entire town became more and more cohesive, the god's gift, the other clown, Clown, who had always stood on the stage of the Joy Theater, became more and more transparent.
It was still Crown who first discovered this. When he saw that the benefactor's "attention" seemed to be gradually disappearing, he panicked. He hastily locked the new door of the theater, keeping all worshippers out, and then tried every way to regain the benefactor's attention, but all failed without exception.
He knelt down in front of his other self in confusion. He did not cry or wail, but just reflected on whether he had done something wrong. He wondered if it was because of his own vanity that he pretended to be a messenger of God, causing his benefactor to look away.
He assured the gods that he would confess to everyone that he was not a messenger at all. The reason he assumed this identity was to spread the name of "fraud" and try to protect his hometown of Sandres. He prayed for forgiveness from the benefactor and was willing to bear all punishment for the "crime of blasphemy", but no matter how he begged, confessed and prayed, it was all in vain.
The figure of his other self became increasingly dim, and now, Clown was completely panicked.
But this matter is far from over.
The residents of Sandres, who were shut out, were unable to hold worship gatherings for several days and began to worry. In addition, the gloomy sky never dissipated, and the wind and snow became more violent with no sign of improvement. They believed that their recent slackness had caused His dissatisfaction, so the people who were unable to enter once again broke down the theater door that was built with wood donated by everyone, and once again "killed" under the stage.
And when everyone saw that the [Fraud] guidance under the curtain no longer seemed dull, but became more solid, and his eyes became more lively, everyone burst into thunderous cheers.
【Fraud】Recognized Sandles!
Isn't it? Everything in front of me is clearly the response of the gods to the changes in the faith here, otherwise why would the puppet-like Clown become so alive?
They shouted the name of the god of [Fraud], praised the benefactor's gaze, and also thanked the hero who brought hope to Sandres. They shouted the name of Clown in unison, but they could no longer find Clown in this theater.
Some people said that maybe it was because of our faith that Clown got the opportunity to meet God, so God summoned him. This statement is very realistic, so many people believed it.
But when the three players heard this, they all felt a pang in their hearts.
Seeing this development, they seemed to have seen the ending.
"The clown is in trouble." Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes and sighed.
Cheng Shi said nothing, but his solemn look said it all. As expected, a hilarious comedy often ends in tragedy. Yes, the clown was in big trouble.
The residents didn't know what Clown was behind the curtain, but the three players knew, because it was clearly not the gaze of [Fraud], but a "God of No Faith" raised by Sandres, who once had no faith.
So, when the residents here transferred their "faith" to [Fraud]...the god without faith lost the soil of faith and disappeared before everyone's eyes.
At this moment, what the townspeople saw was naturally not the more solid "divine guidance", but the real Crown himself.
He had no way to stop the disappearance of his other self, but he didn't want to dampen Sandres' hope, so he had to use his old skills to play his other self and stand under the curtain in the center of the stage.
He wanted to use this method to give people hope and buy time so that he could understand clearly what was happening here, but he overlooked one point, that is, people in desperate situations are sensitive in their minds and fragile in their nerves.
They didn't dare to leave here and go outside to endure the wind and snow, and they would rather get closer to the gods to beg for more protection, so people moved in, moved into the theater, they leaned together to keep each other warm and waited for the return of the gods' messenger, Crown.
