I'm Going to Conduct an Experiment

Cheng Shi was shocked after hearing this, and Zhang Jizu was just as shocked.

He was so wary of the source of the voice from beneath the mass grave, how could he have imagined that it was just the voice coming from a Divine Throne!

"You said you took that Divine Throne?"

Cheng Shi nodded emphatically. "Yes, it's in my personal space right now."

As he spoke, Cheng Shi took out one of the puzzle pieces of the Divine Throne, and coincidentally, it was the broken and tightly closed Starry Eyes.

Zhang Jizu was taken aback. "[Deception] Him..."

"This is not His corpse, and I don't know where it belongs. This is something I took from Subgod throne, which is enough to prove that the Divine Throne is in my possession. So why is there another Divine Throne here?"

The two men exchanged a glance, their expressions simultaneously darkening.

Mortals logic is completely incomprehensible. The only way to find out the reason is to go deeper and go to the space behind the wall of the mortal pit to see with your own eyes whether there is another Divine Throne there.

Cheng Shi undoubtedly wanted to go, but Zhang Jizu grabbed him.

"Anything unusual is bound to be dangerous. You didn't know there was a Divine Throne here before you came, so this is not your purpose."

Let's finish the important business first, then we can think about other things.

As expected of Old Zhang, he's still as steady as ever. Cheng Shi nodded; at this point, he could only choose to play it safe.

Zhang Jizu was still puzzled. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Now that you've already taken the Divine Throne, why have you come back?"

Cheng Shi pointed to the surrounding corpses of gods and said in a deep voice, "Take the materials."

"These corpses?"

"Yes, I'm going to use these corpses to conduct an Experiment that foresees the future!"

"?"

Zhang Jizu was stunned. In his understanding, there seemed to be no Experiment that required the use of gods as materials, or rather, there could not have been Experiment using the corpses of gods as materials in the long history of the Tower of Reason.

The Faith has endured to this day, and no matter how fanatical the Believer of the deity are, they would never put their own Lord of Grace into Experiment chamber.

They might want to, but they certainly can't.

Today, Cheng Shi has succeeded because he has plenty of materials at hand.

As the Clown moved around the corpses of the gods, he said, "Take as many as you can. I'm not sure how many I need, and I'm not sure if the Experiment will succeed, but we have to try."

A lot has happened during this time. I went to see Wei Mu and confronted him about some of the Universe Truth. With his extraordinary intelligence, he told me that the future described by God of Merriment to the world may not be what people imagine!

[Origin] was unable to resist, so the hope given by the God of Merriment was more like a desperate Despair born of helplessness.

I'm not resigned to this; I always feel there's still a way out...

When he said these words, Cheng Shi's expression was unusually complicated, and he was not sure what he was doing.

Even the gods couldn't find a better solution; how could Mortals with a Predestination title possibly find one?

But his tone was resolute, because he knew that if even he, the Key to the World, could give up, how could the Clown, the Fated, the Fire Keeper, and this world possibly struggle on?

Zhang Jizu was a smart man. He sensed the confusion and helplessness in Cheng Shi's words, as well as the Clown's courage to step into the spotlight. So he interrupted Cheng Shi in time, preventing the unanswerable question from falling, and simply nodded in agreement:

There must be a way.

Even if there is no road, people will forge a new one.

It's true that Predestination are the world's hope, but this world belongs to everyone. Don't shoulder all the pressure alone; at least the Clown... will always share the burden with you.

As he spoke, Zhang Jizu began his "shopping spree."

For the Gravekeeper, there is a better way to contain these corpses than through his personal storage space.

This was an unexpected bonus for Cheng Shi's procurement, as it would have been difficult for him to bring back so many materials on his own.

The two men toiled away at the edge of the morgue, focused on laying a solid foundation for the Experiment, or at least preparing for potential losses should the Experiment fail. They completely forgot how Cheng Shi had gotten there.

On that distant Space-Time Dolphin Bridge, a Big Cat eager to charge is waiting!

Hong Lin waited for Cheng Shi for a long time, Cheng Shi he did not arrive. Her brows furrowed, and she jumped off the long bridge and came to the Gods’ Graveyard.

Although she also had her own tasks, she couldn't bear to let a Fate Weaver, who had been put in danger by her own hand, go and never return.

Regardless of which world Cheng Shi comes from, since she has already intervened, she must take full responsibility.

So she came, and then she saw two porters huffing and puffing as they "stole" things from the morgue.

In that instant, Hong Lin, empowered by the Seven-Colored Divine Power, couldn't control her eyelids, which twitched violently.

She felt as if she were seeing that unreliable, lying Fate Weaver from long ago again!

Back then, he was just like he is now; he would readily extend his hand for any benefit he could get.

Even after witnessing this scene, Hong Lin did not urge them on. She simply stood silently in the center of the pit of corpses, protecting the two thieves.

Zhang Jizu remained vigilant throughout, and soon discovered someone behind him. Startled, he Cheng Shi pushed Cheng Shi into the pile of corpses, then took out Scalpel and stood on the edge of the pit, turning to face the impending danger alone.

But when Zhang Jizu saw that the outsider was Hong Lin, his eyes widened for a moment.

"Hong Lin?"

Hong Lin glanced with interest at the Gravekeeper's eyes, which, no matter how big, weren't that big, and chuckled, saying:

"It's not me, but it's also me."

Have you stolen enough? If you have, come back with me.

The deal between the Fate Weaver and me is still ongoing, but I don't have much time left; it's time for me to depart.

"?"

Just as Zhang Jizu was filled with surprise and doubt, Cheng Shi crawled out from the pile of corpses. He patted Zhang Jizu on the shoulder to reassure him, then looked up at Hong Lin in mid-air and laughed:

"That's enough, just one last step."

It's a very simple step; we'll just take one look and leave.

Hong Lin raised an eyebrow, guessing what Cheng Shi wanted to see. Her gaze swept over the Abyss at the bottom of the corpse pit, and she said in a complicated tone:

"No need to look, I'll tell you."

You guessed right, that Divine Throne has been 'refreshed'.

"!!??"

Cheng Shi was visibly shaken, his pupils shrinking as he exclaimed, "What do you mean by 'refresh'!?"

Hong Lin sighed, as if she had thought of something, smiled resignedly, and then explained to her two bewildered friends at her feet:

"Literal meaning."

The Divine Throne here will reappear approximately every so often.

So, it's not just you; probably many versions of you have stolen this Divine Throne, including the one in our world.

"!!!"

The moment he heard those words, a chill ran from Cheng Shi's tailbone straight to the top of his head!

From beginning to end, he believed that taking the Divine Throne was a risky move on his part, and it was because of this that he finally understood what the Predestination Destiny was.

But now, Hong Lin says that many Cheng Shi have taken the Divine Throne...

What is this Divine Throne?

Are the mission points constantly refreshed as they arrive at Predestination times?

The decision to descend into the mass grave was clearly his own, and no one ever influenced him. How did it suddenly become an act of "mass replication"?

Cheng Shi's mind was in complete turmoil, and a faint sense of fear began to spread through his heart.

Seeing this, Hong Lin sighed:

"I shouldn't be telling you this, but even if I didn't, you would all go down there anyway, and the result would be the same."

Let's go. Now that you've completed your task, it's my turn.

This is not a good place.

With that, Hong Lin swung his spear, instantly carrying the two people out of the pit.
