The Fool of the Gods

Gambling?

As expected of a believer of [Destiny], he has a strong gambling nature.

Perhaps it was because He saw this side of Cheng Shi that He gave his secondary personality the dice to open the road of faith?

Zhang Jizu's eyes narrowed into a slit, he turned his head to look around, then looked at Avros at his feet, nodded slightly and said:

"I don't reject gambling, but generally speaking, the benefits of winning the gambling game should at least be worth the chips you paid.

You know, the purpose of my coming here is to be entrusted by that adult and your benefactor to come and protect you.

So I prefer not to take this risk.

But you... well, you are an interesting friend.

I don't have many friends, and for interesting friends, it's not impossible to take risks.

Tell me, Cheng Shi, before the child in Avros's belly dies, tell me about your gambling game, and most importantly, what can we win in this gambling game?"

The words of the squinting eyes were still sincere, so sincere that even without the master of deception, Cheng Shi knew that he was telling the truth.

I have made a lot of new friends recently. Since my friends have started to open up to me, as a believer of [Fraud], if I don’t continue this exchange, wouldn’t I be sorry for the favor of the God of Fun?

So Cheng Shi started to deceive people.

Whenever there was anything related to the word "gambling", his ability to deceive people began to rise.

But his first target was not Lao Zhang, but Scorpio standing next to him.

He planned to deceive this little brother who was not good at self-protection first.

He took out a dice, stuffed it into Scorpio's arms and said:

"I'm very happy that you can follow me here, but the next thing is a bit dangerous. To be honest, I'm not sure I can save you, so go away, brother, find a quiet corner to survive until the end.

Believe me, you will win.

Besides, [Fate] tells me that this is not our farewell forever, and we will have a chance to see each other again in the future."

Scorpio's eyes were complicated when he heard this. The thighs he hugged before wanted to use him like a cow and a horse. It was rare to find a thigh like Cheng Shi who took his thoughts into consideration.

He looked at Cheng Shi's serious look, and neither accepted nor rejected it, but suddenly asked a question that Cheng Shi was puzzled about:

"Brother Cheng, are you...really a bald man using Rejoice?"

"Of course." Cheng Shi was stunned, and then smiled sincerely, "I'm not bragging to you, I'm the best druid in the world, and it's no problem for me to take you flying."

Zhang Jizu snorted and said to Scorpio, "I suggest you stay away from him."

The words of the squinting eyes were full of teasing, and anyone who heard it could taste something, but the little assassin was trapped in his own emotions at this time, and just thought that Zhang Jizu was helping Cheng Shi to persuade himself.

The two of them...are so good.

Do the adventurous things by yourself, and share the rewards of the trial.

Not to mention the high-level segments, where else can there be such people in the whole game?

Scorpio's complex expression was tangled for a long time, and then nodded heavily.

"I found a way out on the road when I came here. Brother Cheng, I'm hiding nearby. If you need help, shout for me and I'll definitely hear you."

After saying that, he disappeared into the shadows without waiting for Cheng Shi to refuse.

Watching the little assassin leave, Cheng Shi laughed.

Zhang Jizu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, are you interested in [time]?"

"[time]?

No, no, I just thought of something fun."

"What fun thing?"

"Bald... Forget it, I'll tell you after this is over."

Zhang Jizu didn't stop his hand movements, his eyes turned slightly and he guessed something, so he smiled in his heart:

It turns out that Zhen Yi's "boyfriend" is actually related to Hong Lin?

Interesting, how could she like him?

After sending away Scorpio, Cheng Shi changed his mood and started the next trick.

He wanted to answer Zhang Jizu's question: What can the two of them win from this gamble!

He smiled and looked at Zhang Jizu, who was squinting his eyes. While thinking about his words, he suddenly said:

"What I can win is naturally a gambling game that pleases me. You should have seen that I like gambling very much, and this is also the reason why the person is willing to protect my second personality.

So, as long as you are willing to join and help me complete this gambling game, whether I win or lose, I have already won the "benefits".

As for you... Old Zhang, since you still remember your own mission, you should understand that your mission has not been completed yet."

"?"

Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes and frowned:

"Yes, there is still half a day before the end of the trial. If you really want to save this child, there may indeed be unexpected risks..

But if you think so, I think it would be more profitable for me not to gamble on this round, because there is no risk if I don't gamble, I can take you away and survive until the end of the trial. "

After hearing this, Cheng Shi shook his head vigorously:

"No, no, no, you are wrong.

You said that you came here by praying to the God of Fun, so I would like to ask, what is the commission He gave you through that adult?"

Zhang Jizu carefully recalled for a moment and remembered the original words of that adult.

"Try to save the life of one of His believers during the trial."

He repeated this sentence to Cheng Shi, and Cheng Shi grinned directly after hearing it. Zhang Jizu was slightly confused, and he really didn't follow Cheng Shi's train of thought.

"What's the problem?"

"Problem?

There is no problem anywhere, it's your understanding that is wrong.

Lao Zhang, why do you think the God of Fun wants to protect me? "

It must be said that this question touched Zhang Jizu's heart. Although he witnessed many lies of Cheng Shi along the way, he still couldn't figure out what his mission was for.

To be honest, before he met Cheng Shi, he had never thought that there would be someone as stable as him among the top players.

To be honest, with Cheng Shi's fear of death, as long as he didn't commit suicide, it would be difficult for him to die.

But he also saw that Cheng Shi loved to commit suicide. When his gambling nature took effect, the gleam in his eyes wanted to turn into a rope to tie himself to the pirate ship.

But if it was just like this, [Fraud] seemed to have no need to use his benefactor's mouth to order himself. Even if they made a deal, how could the true god's instructions be just a deal? There must be some unknown deep meaning hidden in it, but Zhang Jizu really didn't see this deep meaning.

Seeing Zhang Jizu start to doubt, Cheng Shi smiled in his heart. He was waiting for the other party's doubt.

"You can't figure it out, so I said you have a problem with your understanding.

You know, I am His believer, I know Him too well.

[Fraud] is a collection of lies in the universe. There is never any truth in His oracle, let alone asking you to do something through that adult.

If He really did this, then in my opinion, His goal must not be me, but... you! "

"Me?" Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes and completely closed them into a straight line.

Cheng Shi looked at Gao Ya's face with a strange expression, always feeling that it should not be the eyes that should be closed, but the pair of huge nostrils.

"Yes, it's you.

The thoughts of the true God are difficult to guess. Even if I am His believer, I can't guess what He is thinking, but I feel that He seems to have taken a fancy to you.

It's still the same old topic. You also know that they are promoting the integration of beliefs, and you also guessed that [Fraud] is closely related to [Death].

That lord had intended to favor me, but I didn't know what was good for me at that time, so I split off a troublesome secondary personality and got the dice of fate, so I missed this opportunity.

But how could the efforts of the two of them in the integration of faith be interrupted? So, think about it, you...

Could you be the candidate?"

Zhang Jizu frowned, always feeling that Cheng Shi had something to say.

It seems that the offer you threw away was inherited by me, right?

But it is undeniable that what Cheng Shi said... makes a little sense.

He himself has this kind of speculation.

But the problem is that Zhang Jizu feels that he does not have the talent for [fraud]. Why did He take a fancy to him?

Cheng Shi also saw Zhang Jizu's doubts. He thought for a moment and made up...filled in this logical loophole.

"Because you can't lie."

"?"

"Ha, do you think it's absurd?

It's absurd, if it's not absurd, he is not the God of Fun.

Think about it, when everyone knows that your second belief embraces [fraud], what will they think of you?

When facing you, when thinking about your words, how will they react?

Even if you tell the truth, under the aura of [fraud], your teammates and opponents will probably think about what you said three times carefully.

Lies can deceive people, but so can the truth. Who would have thought that a gravekeeper who can't lie would lead everyone into the ditch... oh no, into the cemetery?

Ha, I guess this is His real purpose!

Sorry, Lao Zhang, this may be a bit hurtful, but I think that He is most likely not interested in you as a person, but the fun that bursts out when you are wearing the color of [fraud]! "

"Fun..."

This explanation is too outrageous, too nonsensical, and too unserious.

But Zhang Jizu felt vaguely that this seemed... to make sense?He digested Cheng Shi's words carefully, and asked with narrowed eyes:

"Go on, I'm listening, why do you say my mission is not yet completed?"

Cheng Shi was excited, and he was "swearing and shouting" with sparkling eyes:

"When you look at the trial given to you by the God of Fun from this perspective, you should know that you have not completed His commission.

Because, you did not save me!"

This seems to be nonsense, but Zhang Jizu knew that Cheng Shi would never waste time now, so he tried to understand what Cheng Shi said from the perspective of "fun" and "absurdity", but his eyes suddenly opened for a moment after a few seconds.

He suddenly realized that the requirements of [fraud] should not be understood according to common sense, but should be...

Pick on the words!

Cheng Shi knew he had figured it out when he saw his expression, so he laughed and said:

"Get it, right?

The key to the mission He asked you to protect me is not 'me', but 'protect'!

Since I have never been in danger, how can you protect me?

So, He probably anticipated this scene a long time ago, and His attitude is... let you bet with me!

In this bet with life at stake, 'protect' me!

Think about it, Lao Zhang, in these few days of trials, you have not yet achieved this word 'protect'.

Although the scapegoat is used to protect me, but , but it was used on Mo Shu. ”

“......”

“He really took a fancy to you, well, you can think so, but He still gave you some tests, and this trial is at least one of the tests.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t lie, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t lie often. As long as you solve the questions He wrote, it means that you have the intention to get close to Him.

So, Lao Zhang, whether to gamble or not is not up to me. This is a choice He gave you.

Embrace [fraud], or, look for something else.

Now, it’s your turn to make a choice. ”

“......”
