The departure of justice (order) was not particularly tragic, but it did catch people off guard.
After countless revisions to the [Covenant] clauses, the Divine Covenant Conference finally came to an end. Although he was still bound by shackles, they had been reduced to the point where they could not be reduced any further. After all, the [Covenant] was an agreement, and an agreement must have content. Cheng Shi reluctantly accepted this.
Everyone clearly had many questions about this sudden change, but Death didn't seem to want to explain too much. It turned into a torrent of white bones and left, with Silence following closely behind.
The gods looked at Cheng Shi, only to see him slightly frowning as he said:
"I will explain to everyone later, and perhaps it is time to tell you what to do next."
But before that, I need to go see Him first.
I need to confirm one more thing.
As he spoke, Cheng Shi also left that starry sky. As the agent of the [Covenant], his departure took away the brilliant stars. The darkness of the void swept back, reflected on the faces of the gods, and swallowed their doubts.
"Who did he go to see?" Hong Lin was still the one everyone was talking about.
Zhen Xin and the Dragon King exchanged a glance and said in unison, "[Foolishness]".
That's right, Cheng Shi went to see [Chiyu].
[Foolishness] This vote is very strange. How could a god who talks about foolishness every day commit foolishness himself?
In His view, if the world has no answers, then why would He vote for Himself when replacing Justice (order)?
Does this vote represent approval of the fraudulent scheme, or contempt for the entire plan?
If it's the former, then Cheng Shi might breathe a sigh of relief, but if it's the latter... he must find out exactly where the road ahead lies in the eyes of [Foolish], so that he can make preparations in advance.
In the past, as a mortal, he was powerless against [Foolishness] and had no desire to deal with [Foolishness]. But now, as the agent of [The Covenant], he felt that he might have the right to go and ask for a foolish act.
And relying on the divine connection granted by the [Covenant], he quickly found...
"!!!"
How could it be him?
Cheng Shi's pupils contracted sharply, and he stopped in front of a familiar figure.
He came looking for [Foolishness], but instead, he met an old friend in the place where he sensed [Foolishness]. This friend was not [Foolishness], but had many connections with [Foolishness].
Cheng Shi's expression was complicated. He met the gaze of the person in front of him for a long time, then sighed and asked:
"And what about Him?"
The person in front of him smiled, and he shook his head:
You're too late.
He has perished, right beneath your feet, right where you stand right now.
"......"
If anyone else had stood here and said those words, Cheng Shi would have had to think about whether it was a lie. However, the person in front of him was a "foolish" believer, the number one on the path to godhood, and the one no one would doubt: Wei Mu!
Cheng Shi naturally had no doubt about this.
With the global situation having developed to this point, those who have a comprehensive understanding of the situation may have already found the answer. At this point, it doesn't matter whether you deceive or not. If you're going to deceive anyone, you can only deceive yourself. As for deceiving others... it's meaningless.
Wei Mu remained the same puppet-like figure; he had not changed in any way despite the change in his status.
He gazed at Cheng Shi and chuckled softly:
"You must be very curious about the reason for His vote just now, and I think that's why you came here."
I can answer your question; it was a foolish act.
Indeed, in the eyes of the foolish and the foolish believers, the actions of others are always foolish.
“I asked Him when He would die.”
He never responded to me until today, when He cast his vote.
Rest assured, that was not His complete contempt for the idea of "deception," nor was it a special warning with profound meaning. He was simply giving himself an excuse, an excuse to die.
[Foolishness] He often said that everyone in the world was foolish, but He alone was able to remain virtuous. Although He had also committed some foolish acts, in His view, those acts were not foolish at all, but even wiser than those in the world.
Self-deception is not the exclusive domain of fraud; at least, foolishness is something that one is adept at.
He knew that this starry sky could no longer contain Him, and He had witnessed the fall of too many gods. Proud as He was, He would not allow you to drive Him off that divine throne. So He deliberately committed an 'unforgivable' folly, and then pronounced His own death.
[Foolishness] Dying from foolishness, isn't that quite interesting?
Unfortunately, I didn't see Him in his disheveled state; before your arrival, I only witnessed the void returning to silence.
"......"
For a moment, Cheng Shi didn't know what to say.
This is folly; even in death, one remains foolish.
However, the death of [Foolish] was somewhat expected, after all, the old gods would eventually fall, and Cheng Shi was somewhat prepared for this.
What caught him off guard was the identity of the friend in front of him. Could this mastermind behind the game of Wisdom really be the person he thought he was?
Wei Mu saw through Cheng Shi's thoughts and nodded, saying, "That's right, you guessed correctly. I am indeed His authority."
"!!!!!"
yes!
Instead of finding it!
These two simple words can represent vastly different meanings.
After Zhen Xin expressed her conjecture that "the [Foolish] believer might be an incarnation of [Foolish]", Cheng Shi had a vague idea, but he didn't grasp it until Zhen Xin said again that her exploration was blocked by the authority... Cheng Shi then made a bold guess about Wei Mu's identity.
