The Fool of the Gods

The church was still under martial law, and every staff member inside had a grim look on their faces.

It made sense. They worked almost all night without rest, but nothing unusual was found. No one wanted to do this kind of hard work that wasted effort but had no results.

So the church was gloomy today.

The only thing that made people angry was that a large number of workers poured into the church's backyard to clean up the wreckage of the library. Two people mixed in the labor team and no one asked them, so they walked into the church in such a swagger.

They quietly left the team halfway and walked towards the office of the head of the church on the high tower.

Daytime is different from night, and they can't just hang on the wall and crawl, so the two people made some disguises respectively, and then carefully touched up.

But just when they touched the floor where the head of the church's room was, they saw an energetic old man standing at the stairs and staring at them like a falcon.

Scorpio was startled and wanted to attack, but Cheng Shi held him down, forced a standard smile towards the head of the Divine Education Church, and greeted him without any embarrassment:

"Sorry for the long wait, Master."

The two had never been so close to the Master. At this moment, Berrios was different from the spokesperson of [Birth] who stood on the tower and waved his staff to clear the chaos last night. He looked more like a shrewd and steady thin old man.

His deep eyes stayed on Cheng Shi for a moment, and he slowly raised his staff, pointing the top of the staff with countless babies hugging each other at Cheng Shi.

Before Cheng Shi could react, Scorpio's back suddenly stiffened, and he instinctively grabbed Cheng Shi's hand, pulled him back three points, and then took out his Arc of Time and instantly drew a gap of [Time] in front of the two of them.

Cheng Shi looked at the little assassin beside him with a little surprise, and suddenly smiled more brightly.

He patted Scorpio's hand, signaling him not to be nervous.

"Don't get excited, the headmaster has no ill intentions."

No ill intentions?

He has raised his staff!

When he raised it yesterday, the tentacles of the gods directly sucked away the library. Why aren't you afraid, brother?

Berrios glanced at Scorpio coldly, then looked at the twisted [Time] power that stood between the two of them. After frowning, he put down his staff again as Cheng Shi expected.

"You are not Dolgod people."

Cheng Shi finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Huh - it was a close call, the bet was right.

It's not that he was not panicking, but that he hid all his fears in his heart.

When Berrios raised his staff, his fingers quietly pinched the fun ring that Scorpio had just charged. Not only that, he even pinched a dice with his other hand.

He had the means to retreat at any time, so he naturally had some confidence to test the other party's attitude, but what he didn't expect was that the little assassin beside him who only knew how to flatter others actually wanted to protect him at that time...

It was a bit interesting. Regardless of whether he was sincere this time, Cheng Shi was very grateful. At this moment, he suddenly changed his view of the little assassin and an idea came to his mind.

However, there was no time to think about these distracting thoughts. At this moment, he must face the powerful and imposing head of the Divine Education Church in front of him carefully.

"Dolgod is a tolerant city, so we have the opportunity to meet you, the great head, isn't it?"

"Disgusting flattery, you are as cunning as Lisfield, come up, let me see who is the person who made such a big fuss in Dolgod."

With that, Berrios turned around and walked straight into his room.

Cheng Shi glanced at Scorpio, raised his eyebrows, and signaled him to retract his magical powers and follow quickly.

Scorpio wiped the sweat from his forehead, quickly wiped out the [Time] power in front of him, and then panted and whispered:

"Brother Cheng, aren't you afraid that he will really kill us? This is a boss-level figure. My legs trembled when I saw him raise his staff."

"What are you afraid of? Since he knows that we have entered the church, he would have killed us long ago. Why wait until now?

Come on, you will only hinder our negotiations if you walk in like this."

Scorpio exhaled another foul breath: "Wait for me to slow down..."

Cheng Shi smiled unhappily: "You can't put the other party in a high position. Think about it from another perspective. He chose to negotiate after seeing your [Time] power. Does that mean he is also afraid of you?

He is afraid that unknown means will break the tranquility of Dolgod.

Is it much better to think about it this way?"

Scorpio was stunned, and his slightly bent back straightened up instantly.

"Don't say... it's really good."

"....."

Cheng Shi shook his head and laughed, and took the lead to walk up the stairs.

After returning to this familiar office again, Cheng Shi did not passively wait for the other party to speak, but smiled and said directly:

"I don't know how the head of the church sees us, but I can assure you that we have no intention of destroying the peace of Dolgod, nor do we want to challenge your supreme authority. We are just passing by here and want to collect some things here."

Berrios stood in front of the window with his staff in hand, turned around and asked in a deep voice:

"What?"

"Some fearful emotions, we follow another "Him" who is unknown to the world. In order to pay tribute to Him, we need to collect some fear."

"Humph, you are indeed a pagan. The followers of the evil god have always been the objects of disgust of the major churches. How dare you mention the matter of an evil god in front of me? "

Berrios was intimidating without being angry. He raised the staff in his hand again and looked at Cheng Shi with lightning eyes, as if he could summon the gods to kill the two people on the spot in the next second.

But Cheng Shi had already figured out the other party's thoughts. He saw that the head of the church was not completely indifferent, nor did he not care about their identities. At least when he was looking at him, he glanced at Scorpio several times.

This scene made Cheng Shi realize that the other party seemed to be looking for something.

This is interesting. The dictator of the Church of Divine Education, the actual controller of Dolgod, such a respected person, what can't he get?

Cheng Shi smiled slightly, not caring about the other party's oppression at all. Instead, he took a few steps closer and pointed out what Berrios was thinking as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Existence is reasonable. Since the so-called evil gods in your mouth have not been surrounded and killed by the true gods, it means that there are still places in the world that need these evil gods. Do you think I am right? "

"You can still call your benefactor an evil god. You are indeed a person who clings to faith."

"Yes, Master, you have a good eye. I am indeed not a pious person. I follow Him only to gain more power. To put it bluntly, in Dolgod under your feet, even if you count the Church of Divine Education, there are not many believers who can be said to be absolutely pious, right?

Even if you...

Are you as pious as the people think?"

Cheng Shi's words were undoubtedly the biggest offense to Berrios, but at this time, the master did not say a word.

He looked at the two of them with a gloomy face, turned around, looked under the church tower, and after his eyes wandered among the believers and workers for a long time, he spoke again:

"Tualatin was bewitched by you to go to the library to unlock the descending technique of the Uma sinner, right? "

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows after hearing this, a little unsure about the other party's attitude towards his son, but his mind turned quickly and an idea flashed, and he suddenly threw the pot away.

"No, after investigating last night, we found that it was a person named Lisfield in your church who instigated all this.

The thunder last night was just us cleaning up the traitors. Where there are people, there will be betrayal. Even if we are followers of the evil god, there will be betrayals of one kind or another.

It's just that the noise of dealing with the traitors was a little louder, and it actually gave others the opportunity to do some small actions.

I came here today to clarify the misunderstanding, and secondly, to deepen some cooperation with you and the Shenyu Church.

Of course, if what happened yesterday caused trouble to Dolgold, we can also make appropriate compensation.

Lord Head, please believe me, we have the strength. "

"Oh? What about the fire in the Inquisition?"

"I can guarantee that it has nothing to do with us. "

Berrios turned around and stared at Cheng Shi for a while like a hawk, then snorted coldly, and the staff made a banging sound. Then, the curtain next to the bookcase on one side of the room was pulled open, and a church member wearing a hood and a mask walked out.

Cheng Shi narrowed his eyes and found that the place where this person came out was exactly the corner where he and Tualatin had hidden before.

But this person...

"Master, I didn't even sense his existence!" Scorpio took a step forward, holding the arc knife in his hand with a serious face.

The newly appeared big man walked in front of Berrios, gently took off his hood and mask, and when Cheng Shi found that he had a red beard, he was stunned.

Because he remembered that before leaving this morning, Tualatin had told him that Lisfield was a strong man with a red beard, with a unique image in the church and very easy to recognize.

?

So, the man in front of him was... Lisfield?

He is the leader's man?

The only mutualThe two opposing parties actually stood on the same side.

Cheng Shi blinked and thought for a moment before understanding everything in front of him. Then he looked at the two people in front of him and kept clapping his hands in admiration:

"Awesome, I thought you two were playing against each other knowing each other, but I didn't expect this to be a joint play of you in me and me in you.

The head of the sect is worthy of being the head of the sect, I admire you!"
