Chapter 82 Unknown Fate 8
Afro crossed his arms and waved, Chu Cheng followed Afro into the house.
Compared to the gold and jade outside the house, the inside of the house seemed a bit shabby, but there was nothing he could do. Afro had built so many bases to avoid believers, so he didn't have the time to renovate them all into fine houses. He had to keep an eye on Ferrog all the time, so he didn't have time to take care of his own small home. A small rough house would be enough.
After entering the house, Afro raised his hand and touched the mask on his face, intending to take it off. Chu Cheng, who was about to turn around and say something, almost couldn't breathe. He hurriedly took two steps forward and pressed Afro's arm. In Afro's confused eyes, Chu Cheng stretched out his index finger and swept it horizontally towards his eyes.
Seeing this, Afro slapped his head as if waking up from a dream, and sighed in annoyance.
"I've slept for so long that my brain is numb. This time I remember it."
"Luo, remember, no matter who you meet, you can't have too much emotional fluctuations, which will affect your supernatural power fluctuations."
Chu Cheng deliberately used the code name to point to Afro. Afro was naturally not stupid. He adjusted the mask and nodded. The two sat around the table and fell into a brief silence for a while. Chu Cheng was thinking about how to make the next move, while Afro was simply emptying his mind for a while. Everything that happened now really made his brain, which was not smart enough, a little too much.
"By the way, Ne...Lance, what's up with your godhood?"
In fact, Afro wanted to ask this question when he just woke up and saw Chu Cheng for the first time, but because there were too many things that needed to be solved at the same time, he didn't ask Chu Cheng right away.
Chu Cheng's face did not show any doubt or discomfort, and Afro, who was fooling around, didn't think there was anything wrong. Chu Cheng took the teacup calmly, put his thumb on the handle and lifted the teacup up, letting the tea fall into the teacup without a drop leaking along the exaggerated arc.
"It's nothing, just broken."
"Oh...broken...what!? Broken!?"
Chu Cheng's tone was so calm at first that Afro's mind hadn't reacted yet. By the time he realized how lightly Chu Cheng said these two terrifying words, he jumped up from the table in shock and almost overturned it. Afro
grabbed Chu Cheng's shoulders with disbelief and forced Chu Cheng, who was pouring tea seriously, to turn his face around. Afro held Chu Cheng's face with both hands, using so much force that the soft flesh on both sides of Chu Cheng's cheeks, which was not much, was piled up on the sides of his mouth, as if he was pouting.
Chu Cheng slapped Afro's hand away in annoyance and placed a cup of tea in front of Afro. The crisp sound of the cup falling was like a blow to Afro's head, forcing him to calm down.
But the calmer he was, the more he could find something wrong. Afro had not pointed out this matter directly in Bellit before because he felt a little bit of Chu Cheng's divine power, but since Chu Cheng and he entered Ferrog, the little bit of divine power he felt in Bellit completely disappeared. If it weren't for Chu Cheng, such a living being, in front of Afro, Afro would have suspected that Chu Cheng had collapsed.
"Is there someone in Bellit possessed by your godhead?"
Chu Cheng neither admitted nor objected, but slowly stirred the tea with a teaspoon. If you ignore the not-so-gorgeous decoration in the house, it is still a very pleasing sight to see a beautiful woman with silver hair and a faint glow, stirring the tea with her eyes downcast, with her shoulders half exposed.
But Afro had no time to appreciate these. He clenched his hand on the table into a fist and then released it. In the end, he resisted the urge to pinch Chu Cheng's shoulder again, and inserted his black nails with sharp ends into the wooden round table. He took a few deep breaths to calm his mood and stabilize the flow of supernatural power in his body.
".....Is it that child?"
"Yes."
Since the words have been spoken by Afro, there is no need for Chu Cheng to continue hiding it. He frankly admitted the identity of the person who now owns the divine power. But Chu Cheng's indifferent look angered Afro even more. For a moment, Afro wanted to pinch Chu Cheng's neck and ask him, does he mean sacrificing him if he gives it to him?
Noticing Afro's chest that was obviously floating up and down and his eyes that were wide open and bloodshot, Chu Cheng couldn't help but snap his fingers to make Afro come back to his senses.
"Is it that serious? Isn't it just that you have lost your godhood? Why, do you look down on me? After all, we have known each other for so many years, respected Goddess Siye?"
Afro carefully grasped Chu Cheng's wrist, which he had not had time to retract, and conveyed to Chu Cheng's ears word by word what he wanted to say a thousand years ago.
"You are my lifelong friend, and I have never doubted your decision... It's just... I, Lani, took this road... In the end, you walked alone for a thousand years and lost everything... I..."
Afro couldn't help but speak more and more, as if he wanted to go to fight the goddess of fate in the next second, but Chu Cheng stopped talking with a move. Seeing Afro standing there in a daze, Chu Cheng slowly put down the index finger on his lips after a long time to calm down.
"Luo, I chose this path on my own and it has nothing to do with you. You don't need to blame yourself for it. What's more, now that you're sitting at the negotiating table, you can't escape the chips you have to pay."
Chu Cheng was right. Once he sat at the negotiating table for the comic, the requirements for completing the comic would be his chips. But now that he has overturned the table, there are only two ways to achieve his goal, but the popularity ranking path has been blocked, and the remaining one is to get rid of the goddess of fate. Although he hasn't figured out who is really cooperating with him behind this, this doesn't prevent Chu Cheng from knowing what to do.
In other words, everyone, including himself, is pushing for this possibility to happen, which is to get rid of the goddess of fate and avoid the possibility of the mainland being controlled by the goddess of fate.
So in fact, no matter who the goddess of night is, whether it is Aphrod, it is inevitable that Chu Cheng will become the god of nature as Neropo. Similarly, the goddess of night is destined to be the good friend of the god of nature Neropo thousands of years ago, and they will walk side by side until the sunset of the gods.
So rather than saying that Chu Cheng followed Aphrod on the road to becoming a god, it is better to say that in this possibility, Chu Cheng met Aphrod, and then Aphrod was pushed to the throne of God by fate.
Aphrod didn't know what Chu Cheng was thinking, but he could sense the comfort in Chu Cheng's words, and his originally surging heart returned to calm, not to mention that he also knew that now was not the time to take the blame here, after all, the sword of the goddess of fate was still hanging over his head.
"That child has not been found yet?"
"Not before, but not now"
"What do you mean?"
Carl had not been found before, ostensibly because his godhead had not been activated at all, and had always been wrapped up by Nerro's godhead, which had prevented the goddess of fate from investigating. But in fact, it was entirely because Chu Cheng had not traveled back in time, that is, he had not reached the future, and had not activated Nerro's godhead. Without either of the two conditions being met, who could have discovered Carl's identity?
But now it is different. Chu Cheng has arrived at the future of the past and lit up the achievements of the God of Nature, Neropo. So the protective layer on Carl is turned on. The goddess of fate may not notice it, but Pence will definitely.
So this is actually a turning point for the protagonist team, which means that they have to change the map. This is why Rowena appeared. In a sense, this is also the compulsory execution of the plot.
"Is that so...Will Pence notice him soon?"
"Yes, maybe they have already fled to your territory."
In fact, it is not possible. It is estimated that in another day or two, Carl and the others will be able to escape to the border of Ferrog. Of course, this is because they cannot use identity verification to take the flying train openly, otherwise if Pence orders the train to be stopped directly, it would be like catching a turtle in a jar.
At this point, Chu Cheng remembered the figure of the black boy who had disappeared from his mind for a long time, and changed the subject.
"By the way, Luo, do you have any impression of Windsor?"
"Windsor?"
Afro held his chin with his hand and frowned. This is indeed a little difficult for a god. After all, there are so many families under him, and you can't expect them to remember every one of them. Originally, Chu Cheng didn't have any hope. After all, it didn't go beyond the development in the comics. He didn't intend to put pressure on this, but Lima is a member of the protagonist team. What if the power behind him has some extraordinary developments?
But fortunately, he really asked something all of a sudden. With his hands crossed on the table and legs crossed, Afro thought for a long time and finally dug out some useful clues from deep in his cerebral cortex.
"I don't have much impression of Windsor, but I do remember that there was a person named Windsor, or because he was recommended by Crow. What's the matter, is there something wrong with this person?"
"Crow? Your apostle?"
"Yes, that's him. The taciturn guy..."
Chu Cheng was a little surprised when this name appeared at first. After all, Crow, that is, Piantiao who followed him later, almost never appeared in the comics with his real name. It suddenly appeared and was directly related to an important figure in the protagonist's team. This suddenly became subtle.
But when he thought of Piantiao's identity that he had not yet fully confessed, Chu Cheng couldn't help but squint his eyes. Seeing Chu Cheng's unclear expression, Afro couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Is there a problem?"
Seeing Afro couldn't help but put his hands on his shoulders again, Chu Cheng quickly put away the gloomy expression on his face, bent his fingers and tapped the table in a funny way.
"It's okay... It's just that there may be a Windsor with that child coming over in two days..."
"Oh, no... It's okay"
