Brother, I Just Happen to Need a Priest

"???"

When you see two identical players standing in front of you, what's the first thing that comes to your mind?

Low-ranking players will immediately think of scammers, while Peak Player will only have one name in mind.

Hu Wei's pupils contracted, and he immediately gripped the greatsword on his back. He stepped back slightly, looking at the two Zhang Jizu with suspicion and uncertainty.

An Mingyu was also taken aback, and then frowned as he examined the two Zhang Jizu.

Cheng Shi was completely dumbfounded; he never expected that Li Gui would run into Li Kui here.

No, are you just playing around?

When I needed your help, you were nowhere to be found. I wanted to borrow your pseudonym temporarily, and you suddenly showed up to sabotage me?

What do I owe you?

Shouldn't you owe me 100 S-rank items?

I don't think the purpose of creating Clown is to become real Clown, is it?

Cheng Shi's eyelids twitched violently. To avoid trouble, he narrowed his eyes into slits, looked at Zhang Jizu opposite him, and spoke first:

"If your role is to fit the Trials of [Deception], then I may agree to lend my personal image rights at my discretion."

But I need to know who the person who borrowed it is.

Zhen Yi?

Or... Cheng Shi?

As he spoke, he flicked a Scalpel from his sleeve.

Hearing this preemptive question, Zhang Jizu's eyes nearly disappeared.

He never expected to encounter a fake version of himself here. He was wondering which Clown was causing him trouble, but when he saw the Scalpel on the other person's cuff, he immediately realized that the person impersonating him was none other than Cheng Shi.

Because only Cheng Shi knows how to use Scalpel like him.

Furthermore, at this moment, it was far from the point where it was necessary to reveal "weapons." The other party deliberately showed that glint of silver light simply to communicate with him, to keep him informed, and to prevent him from exposing his identity.

The problem is, you're using my identity!

If I don't expose you, then who am I?

Of course, Zhang Jizu's thoughts went beyond just these. Considering the hints from this Trials, he couldn't help but think that Cheng Shi using his identity as a cover to create enough room for maneuver in this Trials.

He can understand, provided that out of sight, out of mind.

Zhang Jizu was speechless, but he had no choice but to cooperate.

When the word "ending" is mentioned in a Trials of [Deception], its difficulty is self-evident. As the most "favored" Believer [Deception], Cheng Shi is the best candidate to pass this Trials, without exception.

Furthermore, Zhang Jizu understood the weight of this "favoritism" better than others. Based on the lies he told and the things he did for God of Merriment, he always felt that this Trials was not just a Trials, but more like God of Merriment was hinting at something.

Therefore, to give Cheng Shi more room to maneuver, Zhang Jizu, after quick thinking, decided to take over this "performance".

Fortunately, even after joining the Clown, his "acting sense" wasn't weak, so he immediately continued:

"X..."

Never mind, I can't connect the dots.

Zhang Jizu knew that Cheng Shi's identity would attract a lot of attention and cause a lot of trouble, so his first reaction was to try to use Zhen Yi's identity.

After all, no matter how unlucky you are, as long as you are disliked by others, you are relatively free.

However, it was still too difficult for him to utter that "heh," so he had no choice but to admit the fact that "he was Cheng Shi."

Yes, the best solution right now is to swap identities with Cheng Shi. That way, when Cheng Shi needs to Cheng Shi in later, the other party's appearance won't seem abrupt.

So he imitated Cheng Shi's expression, pursed his lips, and sighed:

"Hey Old Zhang, can you stop being so serious every time we meet?"

I just wore your clothes, I didn't dig up your Cemetery, what, you want to take this opportunity to beat me up?

Upon hearing that familiar tone, Hu Wei immediately realized that the second Zhang Jizu in front of him was neither Zhang Jizu nor Zhen Yi, but his good brother, the Fate Weaver whom he had been eagerly awaiting to meet, Cheng Shi!

Hu Wei has been looking for Cheng Shi recently because Ultraman said that his chance to fuse with [Deception] lies with Fool's Game, and Cheng Shi happens to be a player who has been impersonated by Fool's Game. Hu Wei absolutely does not believe that Cheng Shi has no connection with Fool's Game.

So when he suddenly saw Cheng Shi appear, he immediately patted "Cheng Shi" on the shoulder, overjoyed, and said:

Brother Cheng, where have you been lately?

I told you a Deception ring couldn't function without you, and here you are.

Okay, hahaha, very good. You have to come with me today. My team just happens to be short a Priest...

Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Shi's eye twitched, and he pointed at Zhang Jizu across from him.

Although no words were spoken, the "voice" was "deafening."

Isn't there a Priest?

The most effective way to save one's life is still through the [Death] Priest.

Cheng Shi's face stiffened as he thought to himself, "Old Hu, your ability to lie through your teeth is truly exceptional. Others Trials potions for trials, but you Trials Priest, right?"

On average, how many Priest are needed for one Trials?

Priest is meant to heal teammates, not to drain their health. You can't use them like a expendable resource...

Cheng Shi remained silent, after all, he never wanted to go with Hu Wei in the first place.

Hu Wei's expression was slightly embarrassed, but this small situation was obviously no challenge for the "Grand Marshal." He simply waved his hand and laughed heartily:

"It's rare to run into one on a normal day, but I ran into two today. It's good to have double insurance."

Brother, I know you're a reliable person; our team will definitely be fine this time.

"..."

Previously, Cheng Shi weak and unable to resist, so he naturally yielded. But now he really didn't want to waste his time on Hu Wei's plan, so he simply followed Zhang Jizu's approach and asked directly:

"Where does the Grand Marshal intend to go this time?"

When the topic of the plan came up, Hu Wei's expression turned serious, and he said earnestly:

Giggle and Mock!

As you all probably know, the Giggle and Mock disappeared for quite some time, only to reappear in the depths of the Void today.

I suspect that Change unimaginable has happened beneath the Giggle and Mock, so I want to investigate.

"The depths of Nothingness should be safe, and bringing my two brothers along is just for peace of mind, what do you say?"

The Giggle and Mock have vanished!?

Cheng Shi was stunned, never expecting such a thing to exist, but the Doctor hadn't mentioned it on the phone.

Oh, right, I guess I didn't have time to say it.

Cheng Shi frowned. He hadn't confirmed whether he had missed so much real time, so he couldn't press the matter of Giggle and Mock disappearing. Also, given his identity as Squinty Old Zhang, he couldn't ask the others present to verify the time Change. So he pretended to be thinking and shut his mouth, waiting for the others' reactions.

Judging from Zhang Jizu's and An Mingyu's expressions, they were clearly aware of this matter, which meant that the Clowns' search for the Nose of Discernment was likely also affected.

No wonder the Doctor made him guess why the Clown found nothing; it turns out the sea disappeared while they were searching for a needle in a haystack.

"..."

Could it be that God of Merriment is deliberately obstructing things?

Zhang Jizu noticed Cheng Shi's confusion and knew that he had been away from the real world recently, so he acted as a mouthpiece and asked Hu Wei:

Why have the Giggle and Mock gone?

Upon hearing this question, a hint of suspicion flashed in Hu Wei's eyes as he stared at "Cheng Shi" and said:

"Brother Cheng, you yourself are a practitioner of [Nothingness], how could you not know that?"

Faced with the doubts, Zhang Jizu instinctively wanted to squint, but he held back and instead sighed with a pursed mouth:

I'm not afraid of being laughed at by everyone.

I recently got into some trouble and was trapped in a place outside the Void. I barely managed to escape.

As for why we were trapped, I advise you not to be curious.

Otherwise, if I get locked up myself, there's no way I can save you.

Zhang Jizu's mysterious words piqued everyone's interest, but Cheng Shi's expression turned extremely strange after hearing these lies.

Tsk, Deception is a huge cesspool.

Old Zhang used to be such an honest person, how did he become like this?

I need to stay away from him; I can't let him corrupt me.
