The Fool of the Gods

(Ultimate Cup, 6000+ for 2 chapters! Arms on hips!)

There is no doubt that [War] loves blood and fire.

But not every believer of [War] has an affinity for the element of fire.

Most of his believers only received half of his blessing, that is, violent fighting power, and only a few lucky ones also gained the power to control fire.

And Zhao Qian is one of them.

The control of fire is his backup, which he never shows to others easily. It is a surprise card.

So he was very curious about how Cheng Shi knew it.

"You are a hunter, but you are not anxious when you lost your bow and arrow, which shows that you have enough backup to deal with the trial.

I observed that when you climbed the mountain, your left hand consciously avoided the vines and only grasped the corners of the mountain, which shows that the power of your left hand is not completely controllable for you, at least it may cause damage to the wood.

Thinking back to your battle with Cui Laoyuxing, your left hand's defensive posture tends to attack, but every time the offensive is not followed by a follow-up, your right hand punch is not a counterattack horn, which means that the original offensive should come from the left hand.

You have a trump card, and you are a believer in [war].

So, the answer is obvious..."

"You are very observant, but what if I say you guessed wrong?" Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows and snorted.

Cheng Shi said with a rather "serious" look:

"Then Mr. Cui will die."

Zhao Qian looked up at Cheng Shi coldly, and then glanced at Cui Dingtian lying between two logs. A tangled look flashed across his face, and finally he sighed and said:

"Yes, I can really make fire."

Zhao Qian raised his left hand, and at the moment when his arm was raised, a layer of fine red flames ignited close to his skin.

Sure enough, he has the power to control fire!

Cheng Shi smiled knowingly and handed him the medicine furnace.

Fortunately, at this moment that did not affect his personal safety, this person was still able to cooperate.

It seems that he is not the absolutely selfish person he thought.

Zhao Qian shook his head and laughed, and took the medicine furnace.

"What should I do?"

Cheng Shi's eyes went crazy again. He stared at the medicine furnace and said word by word:

"Roast, keep roasting until the medicine furnace explodes!"

"?"

This sentence made everyone dumbfounded.

Gao Yu said with a confused face:

"What medicine can you make if the furnace explodes?"

Cheng Shi laughed:

"You don't understand. Alchemy is a very mysterious thing. My previous experiments have never succeeded.

It was not until the furnace exploded that I found out that the "Sudden Return of Light" needs to be exposed to enough air at the moment of pressure relief to finally take shape.

I have never been able to determine which component in the air is the key to making medicine.

So the explosion of the furnace is the most stable means!

The final form of the medicine is black paste, and the medicine yield is about 70%. As long as we can hold enough paste and rub it into pills at the moment of the explosion, then Mr. Cui's life can be saved!"

Forget it, it has come to this point, Zhao Qian no longer has any questions.

He began to mobilize the power of [War] in his body, igniting the flames and roasting the medicine furnace.

It took a long time to pressurize the medicine furnace, so during this period, others began to collect driftwood and build a platform in the sea.

Tao Yi also took the opportunity to solve the problem of clothes. She cast a spell to peel off the bark of the logs, turning it into tight clothes to wrap her not-so-graceful figure.

As for the men... just cover them with rags, there is no need to be so particular.

Not long after, with the efforts of everyone, an offshore platform made of driftwood and branches was completed.

"Don't build anymore if the area is enough. The pressure device alarms, everyone pay attention, it's going to explode!"

Zhao Qian shouted and called everyone back. Seeing the medicine furnace in his hand making an unbearable sound, everyone tensed up.

Only Cheng Shi, holding a ball made of mud that had just been taken off the wood, looked confident.

The trick to close-up magic is to divert attention.

Everything before was just a prelude, and the one in his hand was the real life-saving medicine.

If any teammate could catch a ball made of two ash slags from the wreckage of the explosion, it would also be a failure.

The sacrifices offered to the void cannot be stored. Cheng Shi will not let them keep them as life-saving medicines, because after the expiration date, it will be a ball of burnt flesh and blood, useless.

"It's coming!"

Zhao Qian roared and threw the furnace in his hand into the sky

"Boom--"

The medicine furnace exploded instantly, spraying the ash slag in the furnace everywhere.

Everyone showed their magical powers and tried their best to collect the ointment.

Only Cheng ShiA man moved quickly in the ashes, stretched out his hand decisively, and then ran to Cui Dingtian while rubbing something vigorously, and stuffed it into his mouth.

"......"

Gao Yu's hands were all black ash. He looked at Cheng Shi in surprise and muttered to himself:

"If you have this reaction, do you need someone to carry you when climbing a mountain?"

Cheng Shi laughed and didn't respond.

Sure enough, the potion was made, not only successfully, but also very effective.

Cui Dingtian only felt a burst of vitality bursting from his heart, and then burst into his limbs with the circulation of blood. All the pain dissipated at this moment, and his pale face gradually became ruddy.

"Isn't this the prosperity of the past?"

Tao Yi looked at Cui Dingtian's changes in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that his flesh and blood had such a great effect.

Cui Dingtian himself was confused. The moment he woke up, he even felt that he had returned to his youth.

He sat up, looked at his body, and sighed in admiration:

"Xiao Cheng, how did you do it? I...

How is it possible?"

Cheng Shi blinked twice and smiled:

"What's impossible? This is just a tracing back to the peak state of your body in the past. How does it feel?"

Cui Dingtian looked at his body in disbelief and said slowly:

"The peak of your body in the past? Even so... this medicine is probably not A-level?"

"A-level? Old Cui is kidding. You'll be finished in five days. If this can be considered B-level, my ancestors will have to burn incense forty meters high."

"But is it possible for a B-level potion to block His [Abandoned Oath Curse]?"

? ? ?

"What??"

It exploded!

Cheng Shi's brain was instantly exploded!

How did the Abandoned Oath Curse come?

"Old Cui, are you a Forsaken Oath?"

Everyone was stunned. At least at this moment, [Silence] descended again.

Cui Dingtian nodded with a complicated expression, looked at Cheng Shi who was confused, and began to tell his story.

His story was not complicated.

Before the arrival of [Gods], Cui Dingtian and his son lived an ordinary and happy life.

Until they came and changed the original world, the old man and his son never met again.

In order to find his son, he resolutely stepped into the starting point of his destiny and chose [Prosperity] as his benefactor.

Because the will of [Prosperity] just fits his goal, before he dies, he will radiate all his strength to find his son.

However, the old man is old after all. Even with the power of [Prosperity], he will not have a clear advantage over other players.

And no advantage means that in the increasingly difficult trials, it is difficult to move forward.

So, after surviving a trial, he made an extremely difficult decision.

Abandon [Prosperity] and switch to [Decay]!

With his increasingly poor physical condition, believing in [Decay] is almost equivalent to getting divine power for free.

As for the curse obtained by betraying the benefactor...

Again, live first, then talk about other things.

So, out of the original obsession, he opened the [Abandonment Prayer].

The final trial was indeed successful. He received the attention of [Decay], but was also cursed by [Prosperity].

The benefactor he betrayed seemed to see through the old man's inner desire, so the curse He gave was:

Give him a stone body that will never decay!

How absurd!

A warrior who worships [Decay] has become a stone mummy whose muscles will never decay.

Even if [Decay] did not treat him badly and gave him a strong enough talent, the curse of [Prosperity] has always suppressed him from obtaining enough [Decay] power.

This is a successful conversion, but a failed betrayal.

He didn't make himself stronger, but he made himself inhuman.

This is also the reason why he can resist the erosion of the void better than others, because both his body and his skin carry their will.

"......"

Everyone listened silently and was speechless for a while.

Cui Dingtian stood up, stretched his body, and smiled bitterly:

"There is the curse of [prosperity] in my muscles, and the blessing of [decay] on my skin. They are tit-for-tat and incompatible. The confrontation of will in my body makes me cough constantly. This is not a disease, but a price!

So, Xiao Cheng, I want to ask you...

What kind of medicine can cure this price? If possible, I am willing to exchange everything I have with you."

"......"

Everyone looked at Cheng Shi with obvious doubt in their eyes.Tao Yi covered her mouth, Gao Yu glared, and Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows.

Only Su Yida, after listening to Cui Dingtian's words, secretly put his hands behind his back, took off all the burnt ash on his hands, made a pill, and clamped it in the crack of his buttocks.

Damn, it's too much.

How do I know that this medicine can still suppress your [Abandoned Oath Curse]?

He never said it!

But it's easy to think that this must be the [Fraud] power in the potion that played a role. After all, it was something made by His talent, so is there a possibility:

His power deceived both [Prosperity] and [Decay]?

But can this be said?

Cheng Shi smiled awkwardly, his mind turned quickly, and his brain was fully open, and he began to think about how to fool the suspicious people.

"Let's just say, is there a possibility that Cheng Shi is not my real name?"

"Ah? Then what's your name?" Tao Yi played the role of a straight man with an innocent face.

"Uh... Actually my last name is Tang, the Tang of Tang Monk."
