The Fool of the Gods

(Today's 6000 is not divided into chapters......)

Looking at Hong Lin's shocked face, Cheng Shi smiled and took out his dice.

He turned the pale dice of fate on his fingertips and said mysteriously:

"When I am in the play, I can escape danger even if the world turns upside down;

When I am not in the play, I may not be spared even if I walk on thin ice!

We are walking on the road of [fate]. We are both gamblers with [good luck] and madmen favored by [given].

We may not be able to decide fate, but we can make the most of it!"

Yes, use fate!

After experiencing the trial of [fate], Cheng Shi found that the thing of given is too mysterious.

It is so mysterious that it can make a person feel desperate and suffocated by the inability to change fate.

Although his perception of fate is not so desperate, it does not mean that he will not feel powerless. Facing the ending that nothing can be changed, he will also have a deep sense of frustration.

But Cheng Shi has never been a person who wastes his energy. He knows that everything has two sides. So when something can make you feel powerless, it can also make others feel powerless.

And this powerlessness of others may very well be your weapon!

So Cheng Shi did not immerse himself in the helpless struggle of the fate script. He thought for a long time and thought of a trick to use fate and dedicate it to fate!

And this trick can be summed up in two sentences. The first sentence is:

"Do you believe in fate?"

No matter when, where, or to whom, he can ask this question, and then just add a sentence "This is destiny!" at the end of the story, there is a high probability that a person who does not believe in fate can be fooled into believing in fate, or at least from not believing to half-believing or doubting.

And today, above the void of the Sighing Forest, it is the first time that he has put his derived theory into practice, and the object of practice is Hong Lin, who already believes in fate.

"So now that things have come to this, as long as you believe in fate, why don't you try to bet with me?

Bald, you are the only one who knows my true identity. Now, I formally invite you to join us!

Let us write the most exciting and crazy climax for His script together!"

Hong Lin was shocked by this theory of fate that reversed the cause and effect. She rarely became serious and asked Cheng Shi solemnly word by word:

"Who... are you?"

Cheng Shi smiled mysteriously, stopped rolling the dice, and pointed the 1 on the dice towards her.

"【Destined Person】!

We are all destined persons."

As he said this, he threw the dice into the void and laughed enthusiastically at the slowly rolling dice:

"When 【Destiny】 writes our names in the final chapter, when the script has laid enough foreshadowing for our appearance!

We must not disappoint Him, let alone the audience's expectations.

We must use the craziest shouts to perform an unparalleled climax for the current play!

A climax that makes 【time】 stop and 【memory】 last forever!"

And when the dice of destiny swayed and stopped at 1 o'clock, the enthusiasm on Cheng Shi's face reached its peak. He closed his eyes crazily and devoutly, raised his hands high, and prayed loudly:

"The way to come and go is all destined!"

Just this sound, like a huge bell, struck into Hong Lin's sea of ​​consciousness, making all her consciousness boil!

She looked at the scene in front of her, her mind was shocked and she stood there, with only four words in her mind:

The destined person!

But in a flash, these four words turned into "bewitching people's hearts", and then turned back to "the destined person" in the next second...

She felt that Cheng Shi in front of her seemed no longer the cunning fortune-teller, but more like a fanatical madman who didn't care about the cost!

But there is no doubt that this fresh theory about "fate" is too fresh and too attractive.

Thinking back to her past, this fresh knife almost stabbed into Hong Lin's heart!

And it hit the bull's eye!

She was moved.

Cheng Shi was still keeping his posture to maintain mystery, but his eyes opened slightly and peeked at Hong Lin in front of him.

Seeing the other party's extremely shocked look, he knew that this thing was almost done, but just when he was about to start finishing, something strange happened!

No one expected that when Cheng Shi finished reading this prayer he made up, the entire void suddenly boiled up!

!!! !!!

Hong Lin's eyes tightened, and he looked around in shock, only to see countless glittering black mists rising up and slowly gathering, flowing in front of Cheng Shi, and turning into a brand new [Dice of Destiny] on his dice of destiny!

When he saw this dice, Hong Lin's pupils shrank suddenly, and his scalp numbed!

This didn't feel like the dice in the hands of the players., but more like a token given by them at the starting point of destiny!

So, why does Cheng Shi have a dice... No, why should I say why this so-called [Destined Person] organization has a dice at the starting point of destiny! ?

In order to recruit new partners, they even prayed for a token that can convert faith! ?

But she had never heard of such a thing, and she never knew that the token at the starting point of destiny could actually be a prop.

So what is it used for?

Hong Lin stared in disbelief and looked up at Cheng Shi.

And Cheng Shi...

was already stupid.

On the surface, he tried his best to maintain a mysterious smile, but in his heart he almost cursed his benefactor.

Lord Benefactor, what do you mean?

I'm lying here and you're cooperating with me, right?

Okay, even if you want to help [Fraud] get back his smile, you don't have to do it yourself, right?

How can I respond to you for turning out a dice?

My re-edited draft of 100,000 words has gone to waste again!

Can you please consider my feelings next time you do something rash! ?

Even if you just give me a heads up, it will be fine!

The clown can't always react on the fly!

I'm numb, completely numb.

Seeing Hong Lin's eyes getting sharper and sharper, Cheng Shi sighed helplessly and immediately said:

"Look, this is the choice of [Fate]. You are indeed... well, the lover of [Fate]!"

Cheng Shi really couldn't find the words to say. He wanted to fool Hong Lin with a laugh, but he didn't expect that the casual words "lover of fate" actually convinced Hong Lin.

The face of this belligerent [Prosperity] God-chosen changed again and again, and finally he murmured:

"So, I am really the lover of [Fate]?"

?

Sister, are you starting to play me in reverse?

Why are you still into the play?

Before Cheng Shi could figure out the situation, Hong Lin looked up and asked:

"You mean, let me give up my oath to [Destiny]?

Is this the future you found for me?"

Sister, don't make trouble, I don't want [Prosperity] to come and mess with me after the trial!

Cheng Shi hurriedly shook his head. He first picked up the dice, glanced at the effect, and then twitched his mouth and smiled: "It's not betrayal, but... fusion!"

"Fusion!?" Hong Lin's pupils shrank and frowned, "Second belief? You want me to choose [Destiny] as my second belief?

Or do you mean that those who join the destiny can only choose [Destiny] as their second belief!?"

"..."

Sister, you have too many questions. I'm a little trash and I can't answer any of them.

Cheng Shi was about to cry. This was not part of his plan, but now he had to change his plan temporarily and improvise a new play according to the current accident.

As for why [Destiny] suddenly reacted, he didn't know, but he only knew that this carefully prepared scam seemed to have become simpler.

Because probably no one would be willing to use such a prop that can change beliefs to deceive someone.

Yes, this is indeed a prop that can change beliefs. When a non-believer of [Destiny] picks it up, [Destiny] becomes his second belief.

This is indeed a gift from [Destiny]. As for why He gave this thing here, no one knows.

Cheng Shi's original plan was based on [Destiny]. The reason he wanted to pull Hong Lin into the game was because he felt that the mushroom-foot tribe in the Sighing Forest was very likely an experiment from the scholars of the Tower of Logic!

Otherwise, he couldn't imagine why a mushroom-footed tribe leader would know about this contract of faith grafting. This contract almost involves the foundation of the [Gods]. If there is no [Him] to witness and bless, and if there is no Erudite Chairman to operate and promote, relying on only an Epska who has lost his soul and a group of mushroom-footed people who are in a state of panic, I am afraid that they will not be able to sign this contract to steal the faith of [Prosperity].

So Cheng Shi felt that at least three [Him] were involved in this game: [Prosperity], [Decay] and... [Truth]!

After thinking for a long time, he finally thought of a method with a high probability of making [Prosperity] cast a direct gaze, but this method will definitely ruin this experiment!

Cheng Shi was worried that when this experiment was destroyed like Zainjil's star dagger, [Truth] would personally come down and attack him directly, so he was ready to pull his benefactor [Destiny] in front of him to block it.

He knew that [Destiny] looked down on [Truth].

Because in the previous [Chaos] trial, He allowed Himself to get in touch with the suspected [Foolish] believer Galausa, andGalausa was the mastermind behind the destruction of the Tower of Principle, so Cheng Shi thought that if he could please [Destiny], perhaps when [Truth] came to an end, the benefactor would be able to block this [foolish] opponent for his own "plan" for him.

So!

The so-called [destined person] just now was not only to fool Hong Lin, but also to please [Destiny]!

Cheng Shi's goals from beginning to end were two, one was Hong Lin, and the other was [Destiny].

But he never thought that this crazy talk about "predestined" would not only scare Hong Lin, but also directly fool [Destiny]!

He even gave a dice to open up a second faith...

No, if you can have a second faith by taking a dice, why did you have to participate in the trial, swallow the bitter fruit, and endure oppression?

How come these preparatory steps were saved when it came to Hong Lin?

Or maybe He had long been eyeing the chosen one of [Prosperity], but he just happened to push things to this point.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi looked at Hong Lin who was in deep thought and spoke again:

"You should know that all those who got the news are quietly looking for the second faith, and they are pushing this matter."

Hong Lin nodded in a muffled voice: "I know."

"Oh, so, there are other [them] who have summoned you?"

"Yes!"

Sure enough!

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows and thought, could it be [War]?

"Did you accept it?"

"No."

Cheng Shi realized that Hong Lin didn't find the second faith she wanted to embrace. That's right, she didn't even believe in [Prosperity], so how could she talk about the second?

Maybe this is also what she is struggling with?

When others are running for the second faith, this druid who has never lost seems to be losing in this race.

Hong Lin was silent for a while and then spoke again:

"I know they are promoting the integration of beliefs, but I have never found another belief that suits me.

[Life] is dull and boring, [Depravity] is self-degrading and negative.

[Civilization] is dirty and filthy, and [Chaos] is a laughing stock.

In my opinion, only [Existence] and [Nothingness] are suitable, but I have no specific goal and I haven't met them at the right time, so I am really struggling in my heart.

However, now that I see this dice, I am a little interested in your destined person.

Tell me about Cheng Shi, let me first hear how big your bet is!"
