The Fool of the Gods

(Ahem, the hell of listening to books is ahead, please read the text.)

Cheng Shi didn't die.

Although his body had turned into rotten flesh and bones, he was not dead.

But what saved him was not the gravekeeper's [Death] talent that was still in effect, but the real... [Death]!

When the angry [Decay] frenzy engulfed Cheng Shi and was about to turn him into a [Decay] creature, [Death] gently moved its fingers and added some ingredients to this boundless anger, lethal ingredients.

So Cheng Shi died.

But in His hands, death is rebirth.

So Cheng Shi lived again, and was reborn next to the adult's bone seat in the form of a skull.

Looking at this familiar huge skull, Cheng Shi's two empty eye sockets were sour, and he almost cried out.

Finally!

I met a familiar god!

I'm home! Oh no, I'm at the company!

But from now on, the company is my home!

I love work! I love [Death]! Praise [Death]!!

The huge skull on the bone seat looked at the light flashing in the eye sockets of the small skull at its feet. After a moment of silence, it threw it down and threw it under the white bone stairs, mixing with many skulls that kept jumping.

I don’t know why, ever since he saw Cheng Shi, he always felt that the surroundings were a bit noisy, even if he didn’t speak, but there was a kind of noise as if [Fraud] was beside him.

Cheng Shi was hit hard for no apparent reason. He looked up at the adult in astonishment, thinking that his silence had neglected him, so he quickly climbed out from the pile of small skulls, hooked his chin on the bone stairs, knocked his jaw against the ground, and expressed his most sincere gratitude and praise in a very pious manner:

"Please allow me, your most loyal employee, Cheng Shi, to extend my most pious greetings to the great God of Death, the supreme ruler of the Bone Hall.

I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much.

Dear Sir, do you have a minute to listen to me about the... um... achievements of your devout bone servant Lele'er who has been working hard for you. "

Lele'er's name obviously made the huge skull pause, and a strange green light flashed in his eye sockets, but he did not answer, but casually said:

"That bitch's mother, [Mother of Prosperity], also has problems.

He will become as unfortunate as Lele'er."

?

When he heard the word "bitch", Cheng Shi threw away all the fear and confusion just now, he stood up suddenly, and his eyes flashed with the brilliance of listening to the gossip of the gods!

Now is the time to eat melons, no one can stop me!

But when he heard the name of [Prosperity] again, the gossip fire quietly extinguished, and calmness and calmness returned to his mind.

Cheng Shi's heart suddenly tightened. He thought of Cheng Dashi's plan. After hesitating for a moment, he asked tentatively:

"What happened between [Prosperity]... and [Decay]..."

The huge skull glanced at Cheng Shi and snorted:

"The dispute started with you.

You, don't know?"

"Ah? I really don't know. I didn't think about anything. I just wanted to complete the trial." Cheng Shi denied it without hesitation.

The huge skull looked at him pretending to be stupid, and the green flame in his eye socket flashed twice, and he didn't say anything.

But after a moment, he didn't know what he thought of. He sighed and shot out two miserable green lights from his deep eye sockets like black holes. The light representing [Death] lingered above the Fishbone Hall and turned into a green light curtain in an instant, reflecting everything that happened in the tree canopy sea above the Sighing Forest.

! ! !

This is... a projection! ?

Huh?

I actually fell in love with the projection put on by Death himself!

To be honest, making the projector look like a skull is a new selling point. I don’t know... Oh, by the way, the world is gone, what’s the point of selling it?

After thinking about all sorts of things, Cheng Shi hurriedly looked up at the green light curtain, and then he saw a familiar figure on the light curtain.

[Chaos]!

This disordered figure that was rising and changing all the time appeared in the distance of the treetop sea, with a... code?

Ah?

He was facing a code!

Cheng Shi widened his eyes with doubt, because he saw the style of the code, and the cover was painted with the most common and least common engraving in the Grand Inquisition!

The center of the engraving was an interlaced lance and a giant shield, and outside the lance and shield were two cross-shaped law words.

It is said to be common because almost allAll assets related to the Grand Inquisition will have this symbol tattooed on them, but the reason why it is not common is that when this tattoo is engraved on the cover of the code, it means that this code is the only one in the Grand Inquisition that claims to be the "Iron Law of Order" bestowed by "Order"!

"Order"!

He is Order! ?

Cheng Shi always thought that the "Gods" who rule the surface of the earth like "Order" and "Truth" should be closer to the gods in human cognition in terms of image, that is, both mysterious and majestic, but he never expected that "Order" would be a book.

If He is a book, what is "Truth"?

Is it also a book?

Then it is no wonder that the surface "civilization" was destroyed by the underground "chaos", because they have too many books.

"......"

Cheng Shi thought a lot more in a mess. He looked at the two parties who were confronting each other for a long time without moving. Finally, he asked in confusion:

"Is that... [Order]?"

"He is not [Order]. He is [Iron Law of Order]."

Cheng Shi's pupils shrank suddenly, and he repeated it instinctively:

"[Iron Law of Order]? Isn't that the constitution given to the Grand Court by [Order]?

How......"

"Old things, you don't need to know.

You just need to understand that He is not the real [Order]."

"What about the real [Order]?"

Hearing this question, the huge skull was silent. After a moment, He spoke again: "I am also unsure of His state."

Something happened to [Order]!

The law He gave replaced Him?

Ah? This is big news!

"The one in the trial... is the incarnation of the will of [Order] also the [Iron Law of Order]?"

"You have too many problems.

That is, [Fear (Order)]."

Fear?

Whose fear?

The fear of [Order]?

Cheng Shi was confused, but he figured everything out in an instant. No wonder the chair was so afraid of breaking the order. It turned out that it was the fear of [Order]?

So it seems that [Order] really has a problem. Did He lose the God War and be divided?

Cheng Shi suddenly thought of the current situation again, so he whispered again:

"Respected sir, now, is it considered that a new God War has begun?"

"Yes."

! ! !

Just one word completely ignited the panic and excitement in Cheng Shi's heart. It turned out that Cheng Dashi wanted to start a God War!

So who is his target! ? Or what kind of ending does he want to achieve through the God War?

He was nervous and confused. The man on the bone throne saw Cheng Shi's face changing, and after a moment's silence, he revealed some history of the gods that players should not know.

"The Mother of Prosperity has always advocated the prosperity of the universe.

He repeatedly wanted us to embrace prosperity and coexist with it like Him.

Herrazur, His eldest son, agreed, so He disappeared.

Fladel, His eldest daughter, agreed, and then, also disappeared."

"Disappeared?"

The huge skull became a little unhappy because it was broken. Cheng Shi was startled and immediately closed his mouth.

But He still explained it briefly.

"They were assimilated by their own mother.

They became one with Him and became a part of the Mother of Prosperity."

! ! !

Hearing this, Cheng Shi's eyes condensed.

Assimilation, assimilation... As one of the [True Gods], after assimilating with Him, how could He still tolerate the existence of other wills in Him?

To put it nicely, it is assimilation, to put it bluntly, isn't that devouring!

Sure enough, all his guesses were correct, He was indeed plundering others, using them as fertilizer to nourish himself!

So the countless branches, leaves, veins, and even flesh and blood organs on the giant tree were all remnants after being fused by Him...?

How many people did He eat! ?

Or, how many gods did He eat?

Cheng Shi was suddenly shocked and extremely scared, and felt that he was terrified and exuded a bone-chilling chill all over his body.

The huge skull felt his fear and was a little surprised.

"You, seem, to know, these things?"

Cheng Shi did not dare to hide: "Yes, I guessed some."

"Oh? How, guessed?"

"Just now, [Prosperity] summoned me and invited me to coexist with Him!"

Hearing this news, a moment of astonishment flashed across the huge skull's eye sockets. He nodded and said in a strange tone:

"Interesting, you are probably the first human that [Mother of Prosperity] attempted to assimilate."

Ah?

Before Cheng Shi's jaw dropped to the ground in shock, the huge skull continued:"Don't be so surprised. Not every life can be favored by Him and assimilated with Him.

The Mother of Prosperity is very picky. If He invites you, it means that you are in perfect harmony with His will.

A walker of Nothingness is in harmony with the will of Prosperity.

Do your two benefactors know?"

Huh?
