[Silence]'s Expression

Today's [Silence] is very much like Destiny.

This is not to say that [Silence] is bad, but rather to praise His tolerance.

Even though the eyes of the Leaky World Silent Puppet trembled slightly from the blasphemy of the Lips of Foolish Play, He still did not punish Cheng Shi in Cheng Shi, just as His Will, even forgiveness is silent.

Of course, it's also possible that Cheng Shi's identity left Him with no other choice, but in any case, Cheng Shi was very grateful.

He Leaky World Silent Puppet to his mouth, then to himself, his anxious eyes clearly saying:

Great [Silence], you'd be better off letting me speak than making it speak.

Leaky World Silent Puppet deeply agreed, and the next second, Lips of Foolish Play was muted, and Cheng Shi lifted the silencing.

The feeling was subtle; Cheng Shi felt as if someone snapped their fingers near his lips, and then his throat started working again.

"I... can speak?"

He touched his mouth, then suddenly curled his lips into a sneer and said:

"Mouth Brother, thank you for your Foolish Deed, it has brought me the answer."

I'm sure you can now empathize with my happiness.

"Hmm, you did empathize; you tacitly agreed."

Having said that, he ignored the somewhat trembling, Lips of Foolish Play and solemnly bowed to [Silence]:

"Praise... fear, it is fear that brought you to me!"

My lord, you surely know why I have come, so I will not waste any more time. I want to know if you are aware of the Change that [Deception] has brought to the Cosmos.

Cheng Shi's tone was extremely sincere, even more so than when he was in the Fishbone Hall.

If this sincerity were offered to the [Nothingness], perhaps no one could have imagined how radiant the Void would be at that time.

However, here, Cheng Shi's sincerity seemed to be like casting pearls before swine, receiving no response whatsoever.

The dull and mechanical Leaky World Silent Puppet fell into eternal silence once again, motionless and uttering no words, just staring straight at Cheng Shi, making Cheng Shi feel increasingly uneasy.

Why don't you say something?

I've been communicating with you so sincerely, and you haven't even reacted. But when that Lips of Foolish Play insulted you, you barely blinked...

Sir, your response is so off-putting, it's hard not to think the wrong way. You don't actually have a taste for this, do you?

"..."

Cheng Shi was numb, and dared not curse, so he had no choice but to use another plan for worshipping the gods.

There has to be some gain!

"My lord, I know that you always uphold your will and have never broken it."

But I know even more that you must have feelings about this world that are different from others; otherwise, you wouldn't have sided with [Deception] and resisted [the Origin].

People generally believe that [Silence] means never expressing anything, but I feel that you are always expressing yourself; the omnipresence of silence is the best proof of that.

It is only because people know so little and act foolishly that you are unwilling to share with them.

[Folly] will inevitably lead to [Silence], and the evolution of [Path of Fate] has already explained everything.

I understand you, and I am self-aware. I may not be Wise One, but I am not a fool either.

I never expected you to break your silence for someone as insignificant as me. I only wanted even the slightest guidance from you, considering that I am Predestination for misfortune, considering that I am still of some use to this world, considering that I share your fears...

Bless this world one more time, great [Silence] God!

"..."

These words were Cheng Shi's heartfelt words. He didn't have much sincerity left for the gods; he had staked almost all of it on the Fear Faction.

His experience of False Finale taught him that without divine intervention, it would be difficult for a Mortals to turn the tide. Therefore, he could only use his remaining sincerity as Chip to win the support of the gods.

This urge to try is even stronger when one senses that [Silence] is not against them.

Seeing that the Leaky World Silent Puppet remained unmoved, Cheng Shi gritted his teeth and unleashed a wicked trick.

If you don't object... I'll take that as your consent?

"..."

At this moment, the Leaky World Silent Puppet finally felt the Predestination value of the gold, as if He saw one of His Believer appear before Him again.

"Fine!" Cheng Shi had no other options, so he decisively changed the subject. "I'll pretend you don't know anything. This was all the work of the God of Merriment. He deceived all the gods in order to make the end of the era appear absolutely real..."

But I still have a question.

You should know about the True Universe. I saw a huge, Silent Puppets corpse in the True Universe. It wasn't dead; it was just pretending.

I had thought that the Silent Puppets might be hiding something... uh... a secret of the Creator, but when I got close to Him, I found that He was actually trying to assimilate me!

My lord, I am not saying that assimilation is wrong, but that He did not assimilate everything around Him, but only the life that entered His body.

I find this somewhat difficult to understand. If He is spreading His will, the scope of that spread is too limited; but if not, what is He doing?

This question has finally received a response!

Cheng Shi never expected that the [Silence] creature, which had been indifferent to everything, would actually start to move slowly after hearing Cheng Shi's description.

The eyes of the Leaky World Silent Puppet swayed more violently, as if expressing shock. At the same time, its limbs, no longer stiff, slowly stretched out and lay flat in the Void.

When Cheng Shi saw the final form of the Silent Puppets, he was stunned, because it was clearly a one-to-one replica of the Leaky World Silent Puppet in the True Universe!

[Silence], this god who never speaks, after listening to Cheng Shi's account, recreated the scene Cheng Shi saw in the True Universe!

He lay himself down in the shape of a corpse!

Cheng Shi's pupils contracted sharply; he didn't understand what the other person was doing.

But when he saw the enormous head of the Leaky World Silent Puppet silently swaying closer to him, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he suddenly understood.

Was He inviting me... to go up?

Just like in the True Universe, go to His head?

Could it be that He has a secret that He can only whisper to Him?

Cheng Shi was delighted, then startled.

He hasn't forgotten what he experienced in the True Universe; a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit, especially for scammers, a fall into a pit can teach them ten lessons.

He watched the head draw ever closer, silently leaving a Dice in the Void, while simultaneously activating the Shadow's Destiny Also Has Divergent Paths, opening the [Time] anchor point, before carefully leaping onto the Silent Puppets's head.

But just as the Shadow Cheng Shi landed on the ground, a buzzing sound rang out.

The exact same scenario played out again!

The assimilation through [Silence] has begun again!

He did not assimilate everything in the Void, but instead attacked the bewildered Shadow Cheng Shi!

Cheng Shi was stunned. At that moment, he even thought that the "[Silence]" Fear Faction identity was fake. No, this wasn't "[Silence]" at all; this might be a damn Deception!

Only He could do something so despicable as to lure people in!

Shadow Cheng Shi immediately activated his talent, retreating back to Cheng Shi's side. Feeling the sluggishness and confusion in his consciousness, and with the alarm bells ringing in his heart, Cheng Shi gritted his teeth and refused to retreat. He asked the Silent Puppets still lying in the Void:

What do you want to do?

Leaky World Silent Puppet fell silent again, only adjusting the angle of his head and swaying it slightly, as if continuing to invite Cheng Shi to "go up."

Cheng Shi fell silent.

Clearly, [Silence] doesn't want to harm itself, otherwise it wouldn't be able to stand safely in the Void. So why does it want to replicate the appearance of the Leaky World Silent Puppet in the True Universe, and why does it want to assimilate its own shadow?

Did He understand what that object of Leaky World Silent Puppet was trying to express, and was using it to repeatedly convey this to Himself?

"!"

Yes, that must be it!

A glint of light flashed in Cheng Shi's eyes, and he finally perked up.

He carefully observed the shape of the Leaky World Silent Puppet, trying to find some clues from the frequency of its swing. However, the frequency of the Silent Puppets's swing soon began to become irregular. Obviously, [Silence] was telling Cheng Shi in this way that the swing was meaningless.

Cheng Shi frowned, turning his gaze back to Silent Puppets's head, wondering if all the secrets still lay with Silent Puppets?

He carefully recalled the assimilation speed just now and found that even a normal Dice swap seemed to be able to escape the predicament, so he once again urged Shadow Cheng Shi carefully jump up.

As expected, this time, the assimilative force retaliated again, dragging Shadow Cheng Shi into a mechanical and stagnant quagmire.

Shadow Cheng Shi quickly withdrew, his brows furrowing even more Cheng Shi he looked at everything before him.

He repeatedly urged Shadow Cheng Shi to land and then retreat. After doing this several times, Cheng Shi suddenly widened his eyes and stood motionless.

He looked shocked and asked uncertainly:

"My lord, do you mean... that if you want to know something, you must risk being assimilated?"

Upon hearing these words, Leaky World Silent Puppet slowly stood up, returned to normal, and blew the shocked Cheng Shi back to reality.

He has expressed what he wanted to express.
