The Fool of the Gods

Epsika was very resistant to attack, much more resistant than Cheng Shi and Hong Lin imagined. After being hit by Hong Lin, it quickly climbed up from the ground again.

But at this time, the giant bear didn't dare to attack.

Because both players figured out one thing, that is, if the existence of the bless mushroom-footed people is really this Epsika, let alone whether the giant bear can get rid of the body of this messenger, just assuming that Hong Lin kills it, then the mushroom-footed people who lose their protection will immediately be exposed to the endless sighing tide and become like their ancestors, with no way to survive except turning into [decayed] creatures.

The trial will undoubtedly fail.

But if this [Desolate Walker] is not solved, the mushroom-footed tribe will probably continue to survive in this "blasphemous" attitude, the spark will always be just a spark, and the faith will never be corrected again.

Cheng Shi finally understood that correcting this disordered belief might be the answer to this trial, but the problem was that this seemed to be an unsolvable problem.

How could a spark that was about to go out turn into a raging fire?

Not to mention the spark, even the people who were found by Him to light the spark were few and far between.

The players had different thoughts, and almost no one wanted to care about these poor mushroom-footed people. In the end, only one idiot was left standing in the flower garden of Epska, frowning and thinking about how to break the deadlock.

And just when he racked his brains and couldn't come up with an answer, the giant bear spoke:

"It's still early, there's no rush, let's find the way back first, and then think of a way.

It's just a game of gains and losses, relax and take it easy."

Relax and take it easy?

Cheng Shi smiled. He knew that Hong Lin was comforting him. In the past, he didn't care whether he got extra points or not. He just needed to gain something from the trial. But today, Cheng Shi's desire to win came up.

He wanted to win and get extra points, and extra points!

But Hong Lin was right. There were still two days left in the trial. There was no need to be so anxious. He still had time to think slowly.

So Cheng Shi nodded and prepared to pull Hong Lin and Amir to retreat before Epska launched the next round of offensive.

But at this moment, the change happened again!

The giant bear roared on all fours and began to retreat slowly. However, during the retreat, she found that Epska's wounds began to recover!

Of course, the followers of [Decay] are not just corrupt. They can always find a balance between corruption and self-healing, which can not only save their lives, but also dedicate to Him to the greatest extent.

However, the healing of Epska's wound was not due to [Decay], but a weak [Prosperity] force that helped it recover.

Hong Lin only caught a glimpse of the weak light green light, and the whole person, no, the whole bear was like being struck by thunder, and stood there in an instant.

Cheng Shi noticed her abnormality, and his heart skipped a beat. He asked with a serious face: "What's wrong?"

The giant bear turned its head stiffly and said in an unbelievable voice:

"The power of [Prosperity], the power of [Prosperity] flows through its body!"

Ah?

Cheng Shi was stunned. How could a body that completely embraced [Decay] still have the power of [Prosperity]?

But before he could figure out this question, the next sentence that shocked him even more came again.

"And this power is exactly the same as the [Prosperity] power of the mushroom-footed man!

Weak and fresh!

The [Prosperity] power of the mushroom-footed man is too little, far from the level of sensing the difference, but Epsilon is different. Although the [Prosperity] on its body now is the same as that of the mushroom-footed man, it is completely different from mine!"

! ! !

? ? ?

Cheng Shi's mind "boomed" and turned white again.

What is it?

The [Prosperity] power of the mushroom-footed man is not the same [Prosperity] as the real [Prosperity]! ?

Could it be...

Cheng Shi swallowed his saliva in extreme horror, and a bold, absurd, and crazy idea rose in his mind, that is:

Faith grafting... succeeded!

This is the benefit that Epsilon wants!

It intercepted the power of the mushroom-footed people's belief in [prosperity], and then through the contract, it condensed these powers of belief into a brand new power of [prosperity]!

No wonder Absif said it was a brand new [prosperity]. Cheng Shi originally thought it was just a rhetoric, but he didn't expect that it was really meant to be!

So not only power, but also faith can be stolen?

How did Absif, the chief of the mushroom-footed people, know about this stealing method?

What caused the current situation? Was it a mistake hundreds of years ago, or was it a premeditated plan by Epska and Absif?To avenge Prosperity, the mushroom-footed people also threw themselves into Decay?

It doesn't seem like it, their people don't know that Epska is the god who protects them...

Wait, yes, the box, the box of the Tower of Reason!

Cheng Shi turned his head and looked, and immediately realized that there was another way that Absfor knew about this way of stealing faith, that is:

The experiment of the Tower of Reason!

Maybe these mushroom-footed people were not exiled here by Prosperity, and a God does not have to exile His believers to a country of opposing faith. Maybe these mushroom-footed people were just captured by the scholars of the Tower of Reason to do an experiment... to steal Prosperity's faith?

Yes, in this way, Prosperity's "forgiveness" of these mushroom-footed people can also be explained. He is not forgiving sinners, but pitying his own people.

So these mushroom-footed people are most likely the experimental subjects of the scholars, but I don’t know what happened to let these mushroom-footed people escape?

Or maybe this Sighing Forest was originally the experimental site chosen by the scholars?

Perhaps at this moment, those scholars are hiding somewhere, observing everything that happens here motionlessly!

Cheng Shi was frightened by his own absurd idea.

Crazy!

This group of crazy scholars even want to steal [their] beliefs!

Do they really dare! ?

Cheng Shi’s eyes condensed, and he thought of the lofty and high-ranking Chairman’s Council. For them who are crazy about pursuing [truth], the answer to this question should be very simple, that is:

Dare!

Very dare!

Why not dare! ?

After all, the Star Dagger is still simulating the rising and setting of the sun and the moon in the depths of nothingness, after all, the Conjugate Whisper is also lush and green above Gasmaira, not to mention that the Divine Germination Experiment is already trying to create new divinity. Where in this world is there anything that the Chairman’s Council dare not do!

Under the blessing of [Truth], this group of fanatical truth seekers are tirelessly grabbing everything from [Gods]!

Divinity, faith, and authority!

So, why does [Truth] bless His followers to do these things?

What is He seeking, to seize the authority of other gods openly?

Or is He trying to become the real [God] in the mouth of [Fraud] in this way! ?

Cheng Shi only felt a huge electric current raging through his body, and he got goose bumps all over his body.

He suddenly thought of another question, that is, if a player intercepted this belief, what should he say?

Will he, or she, who has the power of faith, become a god! ?

If so...

Is it a replacement or a new addition?

Hong Lin probably thought of this question as well. She suddenly realized that this might not be a simple confrontation between [Prosperity] and [Decay]. In places they can't see, there seems to be other existences staring at this place.

She suddenly became cautious, stepped back cautiously, and asked in a muffled voice in front of Cheng Shi:

"Although the [Prosperity] power on it is weak, it has some pull on my [Prosperity] power, and is even trying to resonate with the [Prosperity] divinity sealed in my body...

I wonder if the puppet master knew something a long time ago, so he left these divinities behind..."

It is very likely that the historian may have relevant information about this suspected Tower of Principle experiment in his memory, but the puppet master did not share this with them for some reason.

Cheng Shi did not know what the puppet master was thinking, but he could probably guess what a warrior was thinking, that is, how could something that fell into my hands be transferred out, let alone to an enemy!

So he smiled and said:

"No matter what it is, I can't throw away what I have in my hand. Can I still hold on? I may need more time to find some other clues."

The giant bear nodded: "Although the [Decay] here is eroding me all the time, it doesn't matter. It's enough to hold on for half a day. As for you, the [Prosperity] in the wild lamp is not enough. Take it and I will give you some more."

Cheng Shi honestly picked up the wild lamp, and then heard the giant bear say:

"Come and use the concentration technique, which can make me react faster."

His expression froze and he froze in place.

"......"
