Hey, guess what? There's more!
...
The poison didn't come by chance; she had also attended the gathering that Dolgoth had just held.
Admittedly, the defiled have no divine throne, but the defiled have a chosen one.
When the Dragon King was helping Cheng Shi gather everyone, he didn't know how Cheng Shi would arrange things for this chosen one without a divine throne. But no matter how things were arranged, he had to make sure that someone from the "Corrupted" side was present when he made the arrangements. So the Dragon King also sent a message to Poison.
He asked for her opinion, and she did not refuse the poison.
However, her attendance was just as awkward as that of [Defilement].
From beginning to end, perhaps because of the doctor's discovery, or perhaps because of the big cat's departure, the gods did not pay attention to her immediately.
However, Poison had no objection to this; having lost her desires, she naturally no longer cared.
But when she saw the gods gathered together, searching for a future for the world, her heart skipped a beat. She wanted to join them, but she couldn't find the motivation to do so.
Everyone knows that desire is a terrible thing, but they don't know that losing desire is just as terrible.
Poison always has the desire to integrate, but this desire is like a rootless duckweed, making it difficult to build ambitions on it. As a result, after Cheng Shi left, the gods were busy with their own affairs, but she still stood in the same place, confused and helpless.
Until she vaguely heard the conversation between the destined man and the clowns, she silently followed them to the side of the Sea of Desire.
This is her "home turf".
Poison walked up to Qin Xin and stood there with a smile on her face, but everyone knew that the smile was fake. A person who has lost desires will not have emotions. Poison was just playing the role of her former self.
Qin Xin couldn't deny the courage of the poisoner; he merely frowned and said worriedly:
"You have not inherited the divine throne; you are still a mortal. The sea of desire is so dangerous; you..."
Poison glanced at Qin Xin, a smirk playing on her lips, and said:
"Does becoming a god mean you're no longer in danger?"
I've only ever heard of gods dying from the sea of desire, never of mortals. Perhaps, in the sea of desire, mortals have an advantage over gods?
"......"
One sentence left everyone speechless. Indeed, they were currently unaware of the effects of the Sea of Desire on mortals, but the problem was that no normal person would casually take a trip into the Sea of Desire.
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yi stood beside her sister and muttered softly, "It sounds like a clown's sophistry. He really is the biggest source of pollution in this world..."
Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
Just as everyone was still deadlocked over who would be selected to enter the Sea of Desire, Cheng Shi returned, accompanied by Hong Lin.
They did not part immediately. Cheng Shi recalled the mission Hong Lin had mentioned in the real universe and felt that Hong Lin's departure was too hasty, so he gently tried to persuade her to stay.
Honglin naturally wanted to spend more time with her friends, but she declined Cheng Shi's advances and stood quietly in the farthest place.
When Tao Yi saw Hong Lin arrive, she gritted her teeth and stopped, suppressing the urge to go over and say goodbye. Looking at her best friend from afar, Hong Lin was very pleased to see how strong the little fox was.
It was under these circumstances that Cheng Shi slowly walked up to the poison, and like someone who had truly lost all desire, said without joy or sorrow:
"This matter has nothing to do with faith, nor is it about who is indispensable. Perhaps we have better methods. When the future arrives, you might just find your own meaning again. Poison, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Poison chuckled crisply:
“I don’t like who you are now; I preferred the little pastor you used to be.”
"So, little pastor, will you remember me?"
"......"
Cheng Shi looked towards the distant sea of desire, his lips moving slightly, but as always, he did not respond when poison approached.
The poison laughed, a laugh of unparalleled brilliance.
"Then let the world remember me, and you will remember me too."
As she spoke, she stopped staring at Cheng Shi and looked at everyone on the side of the sea of desire:
"Since the gods descended and the game began, I have been trying to satisfy everyone's desires and use this as a basis for my own will to speculate on [corruption] and get closer to the gods."
Now, it's time to take care of yourself.
Since we're all so close, please grant me one wish. Although I've long since lost all desires, I still 'want' to find my past self again.
Let me go in in your place, satisfying both the world's needs and my own 'pursuit'—a win-win situation.
Besides, I may not be able to bring you any answers. The sea of desire is boundless, and I cannot guarantee where my desires will take me. If I disappear for a long time, you can still continue to compete for that spot, which will not affect your spirit of dedication.
So give me a chance, it's settled then, remember to think of me.
With that, Poison brushed aside her gradually turning blue, tousled hair, looking incredibly dashing, and walked towards the Sea of Desire without looking back.
The moment she turned her back, the smile on her face vanished completely, and she became expressionless, just like Cheng Shi was at that moment.
Qin Xin was taken aback and wanted to help, but Du Yao nimbly dodged her. Then, Cheng Shi's voice came from behind:
"poison!
Remember, if you find anything related to the Creator in the sea of desire, and that thing is contagious, then from the moment you find it, don't say another word.
We'll be waiting for you on the shore of the sea of desire...
There was one more sentence Cheng Shi didn't say aloud, but silently murmured in his heart: We will see you off again!
Cheng Shi had already vaguely guessed the secret of the Desire Sea.
