[Life] and [Degeneration] are both summaries of a past era, while [Order] is the real beginning of [Civilization].
The difference between Him and the previous six true gods is that He truly came with the [Origin]'s expectations for [Civilization], so His strength is so strong that He can conquer the world by himself.
Of course, the help of [War] is indispensable here, but I don’t know how much [War] has contributed to this war of gods.
Cheng Shi understood. He nodded and looked at the code, then spoke again:
“I understand. As I thought, it is [Him’s] expectation that gives you such great strength.
But Lord Code, don't you think that this moment is just like that moment? The Supreme One has given you the power of "Order" so that you can return the vision of order to the universe. Why don't you follow suit and give me the power of "Order" so that I can return your vision of "Order"?
Then I will be like you, carrying expectations from above, and singing the song of order throughout the universe.
This is undoubtedly the best way for you to get closer to [Him], isn’t it? ”
The Codex slowly closed all its pages, and its breath became solemn, obviously entering the final moment of consideration.
He was moved, so He asked:
"what do you want from me?"
Cheng Shi didn't even think about it and blurted out: "Power!"
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere around the Code instantly tensed, and then contracted. It was as if an irritated employer had directly overturned the negotiation table and left this disgusting negotiation room.
Cheng Shi saw that something was wrong, his face changed, and he quickly changed his words:
“…It’s definitely not appropriate.
Transactions should be conducted step by step. If you generously grant me authority right from the start, I will hesitate because of the heavy expectations. "
After saying that, he paused for a moment, paying attention to whether this flattery was useful, but unfortunately, it was completely useless. Code had no intention of continuing the negotiations.
Cheng Shi sighed secretly, adjusted his thinking, and slightly lowered the price in his mind. He stretched out his hands and showed all the rings he got from the gods to [Pride (Order)], regardless of whether they still had any effect, and then continued to deal with it:
"Your special creations or semi-artifacts like these will do. Powers of lower levels are useless. I walk the world on your behalf. I must always gain the trust of the believers of [Order] in my camp and intimidate the disorderly scum who don't listen.
What you see here is also proof that I have the ability to spread order to you.”
The Code sneered and said disdainfully: "It seems that you have acted on behalf of many people."
Cheng Shi straightened his back and said without hesitation: "Those who are capable should do more work."
"......"
What a good saying goes that those who are capable should work harder!
The cover of the Codex became a little distorted at a certain moment. It was unknown how this [Order], who had witnessed the universe for so many years, viewed this shameless clown. He pondered for a moment and then said:
“So you are His answer.”
"?" Cheng Shi's face froze and he couldn't laugh anymore.
Before he knew that the answer was a "sacrifice", he might have had some "admiration" for the answer's identity, at least he wasn't 100% afraid, but now...
Forget it. Whoever wants to be the answer to this crappy question can do so. I won’t take it.
It would be better to let Wei Mu come. He is smart and maybe he can help them.
Just as Cheng Shi's face was changing and he was thinking wildly, the aura of the Code stabilized again. He rejected Cheng Shi's request and said in a proud tone:
"If there were no [chaos] and [fraud] restraining me, I could grant you any creation you want. [Life] is too rough, [existence] is too flashy, and it is far from having the temperament of [civilization].
But now, hmph, thanks to your two benefactors, the gift you deserve has become [nothingness]. "
"......"
After hearing this, Cheng Shi's expression became even weirder.
Okay, okay, you are really stubborn. What can you do if you just say you can't give it? And you have to look down on everyone at the same time. Do you think you are stupid?
Hey, don't mention it, you really shouldn't mention it. [Stupidity] cannot grant authority, and you cannot grant authority either. To this extent, you two are indeed alike.
Cheng Shi was annoyed. He had been looking forward to the chips for a long time but didn't get them. He felt disappointed that "I hope my saliva today will be wasted."
But now that it has come to this, the duck is about to be cooked, and there is no way he can give up, so the clown reorganized his thoughts and changed his idea again:
"Okay, you are the 'capital', you have the final say.
So, Lord Code, what can you give me now?
Even ordinary believers will have the gaze of the benefactor as a driving force to motivate them to move forward. You can't let me work for nothing, can you?
It costs money to take a taxi, I can’t afford to pay myself to spread order to the world…”
Cheng Shi's tone was "extremely miserable", giving people the feeling that [Pride (Order)] had become an inhuman boss who withheld wages. This scene once again stunned Kotaro.
The cover of the codex wrinkled even tighter.
He felt that the other party's words were not a cry of misery at all, but rather a ruthless mockery of himself.
The clown is mocking himself for not being able to give anything.
The most annoying thing is that he was right to be sarcastic.
The Code was silent. He suppressed the resentment and arrogance in his heart. After pondering for a long time, he calmly gave the biggest bargaining chip he could promise at the moment.
