Chapter 88 Eternal Night Day 2
Bain's words were like a burst of thunder exploding in Chu Cheng's ears. Although he had expected that Bain would definitely know something, he did not expect that he would directly strip Chu Cheng of his vest.
But Bain did not even wait for Chu Cheng to reply, and continued to talk to himself.
"It's really interesting. If the news of Neropo's appearance spreads out, even children will not believe it, right? Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I wonder what the people of Ataco will think~"
Bain put his hands behind his back, and the hat on his head rose and fell slightly with his jumping movements like a little rabbit. Chu Cheng turned his back to Bain, and his eyes hid behind his falling hair and turned slightly twice.
Chu Cheng is not sure why Bane knew him, was it a prophecy or because he had experienced the Twilight of the Gods. Bane's changing of shells is very tricky. If Bane's original identity was the one sitting under the goddess of fate, then he would be in big trouble.
Moreover, Bane's attitude is very strange. He has no respect for the gods at all. In theory, the closer people are to the gods, the more they respect the gods, because they know how terrible the gods' power is, unlike ordinary people, who only vaguely know that the gods' blessing allows them to live in peace and happiness. But Bane seems to not care about Chu Cheng's identity at all, which is unreasonable.
Chu Cheng touched the earrings, and the cool touch made him calm down.
"Then did you see your next fate through the crystal ball?"
Bane walked to the back of Chu Cheng, stood behind the leather sofa, put his arms on the back of the sofa, and buried his entire face in the gap between his arms, leaving only a pair of eyes staring at Chu Cheng's back.
"That's not fate, it's just a possibility I spied on."
"So you still saw it, didn't you?"
Chu Cheng didn't show any unnaturalness, turned around and strode to the sofa next to Bane, lifted the hem of his clothes and fell on the sofa, tapping the armrest with his fingers.
Bane turned his face to the side, leaning on his right arm, and his hat fell down with gravity, revealing his soft hair. The hat fell on the sofa and bounced up and landed on the soft wool carpet on the ground without any sound.
"The power of the goddess of fate is so powerful that sometimes I feel that she is monitoring the entire End Continent. It's really scary."
Bane said this without holding his throat to maintain his somewhat sweet voice, so Chu Cheng didn't react at first and paused for two seconds.
But these two seconds seemed to make Bane misunderstand Chu Cheng's statement and think that he agreed with what he said. Bane exhaled through his nose, turned over with his hands on the sofa, and straddled the back of the sofa with his back facing up, almost folding himself in half with amazing flexibility.
"So many prophets are in the hands of various countries, aren't you afraid?"
Chu Cheng glanced at Bain with the corner of his eyes, silently pulled the corner of his mouth, revealing a bit of sarcasm.
"What's the use of being afraid? He lost his divinity in a blink of an eye. God is just like that."
Obviously, these words were extremely angry, but there was no self-pity in Chu Cheng's tone, it was still so plain, but Bain could taste the madness wrapped in blood feud from that tone.
Bain's legs swung in the air, and his small leather shoes kicked the back of the chair again and again. The room fell into silence for a while, and the two of them had their own evil intentions and no one spoke.
After a long while, Chu Cheng suddenly spoke.
"What about you? Why are you hiding here and there until now?"
Bain's frequency of shaking his legs has not changed. He stared straight at the ceiling, and his mouth was still in an unreliable tone, as if he was going to turn a corner.
"Hmm~ How could it be? I'm obviously pursuing the end of time, what do you mean by hiding here and there~"
"If that's the case, you wouldn't be hanging out with Piantiao"
Hearing this, Bain's legs that had been shaking all the time stopped. His breathing was already weak, and now it was like a doll hanging on the sofa.
"When did you find out?"
"It's been a while."
Piantiao's impersonation of Black Eagle is easy to explain, and the motive is also easy to judge. It's nothing more than this Palud, and the explanation is nothing more than a miserable male second who dares not express his feelings and is a coward. But the problem also lies here.
Piantiao is an apostle under the seat of the goddess Siye, and so is Heiying. It is hard to say whether the two are from the same period, but at least they have experienced the Fall of the Gods. It is extremely difficult to impersonate two apostles of equal status.
But Piantiao is smart. He kept Piantiao's identity hidden behind the scenes, and at the same time made Heiying's identity disappear for a long time, blurring the timeline. After the fall of the goddess Siye, there are only a few apostles who have survived to this day, which is why he has to support two people all the time.
Piantiao must have contacted Bane because he saw Bane's ability to change shells. Chu Cheng is sure that Piantiao is holding some relics of Palud, or even body parts, to perform impossible magic.
This is Chu Cheng's conjecture based on the original Willdon and the clips of Nerobo's threat to Piantiao in the comics. Although some details are definitely not perfect, it is almost right.
But it is not a good thing for Bane to meet Piantiao. He has been active in Bellit for a long time. If he is found to have a stable transaction with the apostles under the seat of the goddess of night, it is impossible for him to survive as a wild prophet, especially after careful investigation, it is easy to find the contact between these people's identities.
Achieving immortality by changing the body is definitely a forbidden technique that violates the bottom line of the law of the end continent. Bane will not be stupid enough to dig his own grave. The only possibility is that contact with Piantiao is Bane's purpose, and all other threats are not to be feared.
But Chu Cheng couldn't figure it out for the moment. This was not a problem of Chu Cheng's ability, but a deliberate result. Chu Cheng stared at Bane's profile, and a possibility flashed through his mind.
"Did you predict the fall of the goddess of fate?"
Bane turned his head, met Chu Cheng's eyes, and suddenly showed a very large smile.
"No, a total of 1043 times, and not once was His fall. But..."
Bane stood up, holding up the sofa, and his belt drew an arc in the air, and then he sat down on the sofa steadily.
"In these 1043 times, you were present every time, and each time was slightly different. So I guess, maybe you are the only variable in this unsolvable game."
"I want to see a different ending to this game."
The clock hands went through half a circle, leaving behind a clicking sound. Time passed by every second, and Nightingale stood at the door dutifully until the door at the end of the corridor opened again, and Nightingale hurried forward.
Bain was the first to come out. Nightingale's bow did not change at all. When Bain passed by her, he sneered and said,
"What an obedient dog. Tsk tsk tsk."
Nightingale did not feel angry when she heard this, and did not even say a word in retort. Seeing that Nightingale could not even talk back, Bain felt bored, and the mocking smile on his face disappeared completely. He rolled his eyes and left.
When Bain's figure was about to disappear at the stairs, Chu Cheng slowly walked out of the house. Nightingale hurried to meet him, but was stopped by Chu Cheng's raised hand.
Chu Cheng's eyes fell on Bain, who was almost invisible, until he had already gone down the stairs.
"Send someone to follow him, keep tracking his supernatural powers, report his formation every day, and report anyone they meet."
"Yes."
No matter how nice and fancy Bain's words sounded, he didn't explain his identity in the end. To be honest, although Chu Cheng had expected it, the number of 1,043 predictions still shocked Chu Cheng.
This is not a small number. Many prophets may not be able to predict a fraction of Bain's prediction about the goddess of fate in their entire lives. After all, prophecy is a matter of peeking into the secrets of heaven, and the consumption of supernatural magic and lifespan is unimaginable.
So even the goddess of fate will only keep observing fate, and will not try to keep exploring the future, let alone try to constantly modify the trajectory of fate. A single move affects the entire body. The more you understand these abilities, the more you will be in awe of them. Therefore, each country will protect more prophets for its own use.
After all, prophets are not a hereditary race. Who knows whether one can be transformed from tens of thousands of people, and whether they can be found. Of course, the more of these consumables, the better.
With Bain's ability to predict, Chu Cheng dares to guarantee that he will use it every time he changes his identity. Chu Cheng even suspects that every time Bain changes his shell, it is with the help of Pianniao. These two people must have done a lot of human experiments together. If Chu Cheng initially suspected that Bane had the ability to predict in this body, when he said it 1043 times, Chu Cheng dared to confirm 100% that Bane's language ability was definitely an ability engraved in his soul.
But from the beginning of the ancient times to the present time, apart from the goddess of fate, there could not be a second species that could achieve this level of prediction. Even if Bane started predicting since the ancient times, it has been less than 10,000 years until now, and he has predicted one thing more than a thousand times. Chu Cheng can't count how many times he has predicted in total.
Unless Bane is also a god, or an apostle of a very powerful god, and this god has blessed Bane without reservation, it is possible for him to have such a powerful ability to predict. Otherwise, Chu Cheng really can't figure out how he did it.
But fortunately, no matter what Bain's position is, he is not a member of the Fate Goddess's faction. Otherwise, with his ability, he should have become the number one apostle under the Fate Goddess's seat long ago, and it is impossible for him to be unknown and hide his identity.
Chu Cheng pointed his finger at the wall, and a small crack suddenly exploded around the fingertip. Then, with a bang, it exploded in the air, and after floating in the air for a few seconds, it turned into dust and dissipated.
