Druid's Friend Is a Wood Elf

However, his skin and flesh began to age instantly, his hair turned gray, and the skin on his face seemed to have completely lost its elasticity, turning into countless wrinkles that piled up and sagged, becoming loose like melting wax.

Seeing that Cheng Shi's surrender seemed genuine, Hong Lin the Big Cat's eyes widened in shock. She frowned, as if she had just thought of something, and with a "whoosh," she turned around and rushed back, plunging into the mist. Cheng Shi her thick, long tail to tie the dying Cheng Shi up and tossed him onto her back, then dashed off like the wind.

The Big Cat was moving so fast that Cheng Shi's loose skin was being whipped painfully by the howling wind beside him.

But Cheng Shi didn't care at all. Instead, he obediently hugged the Big Cat's back and laughed weakly.

"Laughing butt laughing!"

Hearing Cheng Shi laugh like that, Hong Lin knew perfectly well that she had also been tested, and thoroughly tested at that.

This Fate Weaver clearly saw that he had no ill intentions towards him, which is why he dared to use his own life as bait to fish out a trap.

Unfortunately, by the time I realized it, it was too late; I had already been hooked.

Indeed, Cheng Shi won the bet, and he felt that the Chosen of God of "Prosperity" was treating him quite strangely.

Despite being wary, they didn't kill; despite being able to go alone, they chose to bring themselves along.

She even turned to ask herself a question when the Sighing Tide was breaking out, saying it was a test, but a normal test would not have been like this. She could have simply run away without reminding herself and then secretly observed from the shadows.

Cheng Shi felt that Hong Lin's interest in him was not only due to Zhen Yi, but there must be other factors, and it was very likely that she learned his name from a former teammate.

Furthermore, this former teammate probably had a pretty good relationship with him, otherwise Big Cat wouldn't have this attitude.

So Cheng Shi made a small test. He guessed that Hong Lin had no ill intentions. Not only that, he also guessed that Hong Lin was a good person, at least a good person to his friends' friends.

Clearly, he guessed right again.

"So, cough cough... cough cough, Big Cat, whose friend are you really?"

Originally, this was just a very ordinary question, without any joking tone, but Cheng Shi never expected that this one "Big Cat" would directly ruin a sure-win situation.

Hong Lin was furious when she heard "Big Cat" before. No one had ever called her that before, except for Zhen Yi!

Then...

The "Big Cat knight" who was riding on the Big Cat's back was suddenly whipped and rolled up by the Big Cat's tail, and then dragged directly to the ground, turning from a rescued "friend" into a "criminal" subjected to dragging torture.

Fortunately, the ground of the Sighing Forest was soft due to the decaying leaves, and the Today's Warrior. Otherwise, given Cheng's Cheng Shi loose skin and flesh, he would probably have become what Death liked best before he could have dragged two meters.

Even though his life was not in danger, Cheng Shi to be on the safe side, Cheng Shi still struggled to pull out a bottle of "Past Prosperity" and drank it down.

The moment the medicine entered his stomach, he suddenly realized that being dragged out like this for a while wasn't so bad. It felt a bit like riding a sled in the forest, except there was no snow and no sled...

There's only one sled-pulling... "Husky"?

The Sighing Tide is not a thick fog that covers the entire forest; its appearance is unpredictable, and its coverage varies in size.

When the fleeing Hong Lin Big Cat saw that the fog behind her was no longer so close, she suddenly braked and then flung Cheng Shi into a nearby tree with her tail.

Cheng Shi groaned in pain but didn't move. Instead, he let himself fall to the ground and began to play dead.

With a "howl," the Big Cat quickly shrank from her massive Jungle Leopard form and transformed back into human form in no time. Her tube top and shorts remained unaffected, still covering her stunning figure.

Seeing Cheng Shi lying motionless on the ground, Hong Lin snorted coldly and casually pulled out a twisted snake and shaped it into a wooden spear, pressing the tip of the spear against Cheng Shi's heart.

"Playing dead?"

"And you still say you're not Zhen Yi!"

Hong Lin's eyebrows furrowed and her eyes were filled with anger. Now she herself was a little uncertain. The Fate Weaver in front of her kept jumping back and forth on the dividing line between being Zhen Yi, provoking her nerves in a self-destructive way. If she hadn't heard this name from a friend, this annoying Fate Weaver would probably have become a dead man under her gun long ago.

Meanwhile, Cheng Shi was pinned to the ground, covered in dust and grime, spitting out bits of rotten leaves as he did so, muttering:

"Alright, buddy, since we know each other, I'll be honest with you:"

I Am You Cheng Shi, the one you've heard about, and I am indeed a Fate Weaver. If you really learned about me from a friend, you should know that the story of me Fate Weaver is definitely not a lie.

I have grafted the Destiny of many people onto my own, and through their Destiny, I have helped many others.

Hong Lin's expression turned somewhat grim. "The Fate Weaver can't run that fast."

"Well, before the gods descended, I was a sprinter with excellent results; I almost made it into the provincial team."

To be fair, I run fast but lack stamina, so when I stopped, it wasn't out of despair, but because I was genuinely exhausted.

"Training sprints on all fours?"

"Yes, it's the latest research result in the sports world, which I studied."

"Even when you grow bigger... Jungle Leopard still runs on four legs, doesn't it?"

"..."

Hong Lin was speechless. She had never seen anyone who could make a lie sound like nonsense in front of her.

However, after this exchange, she was finally 100% certain that Cheng Shi was not Zhen Yi.

Zhen Yi is witty, but not obnoxious.

She doesn't say anything meaningless, because every word she says is a trick to amuse people.

Cheng Shi Hong Lin's attitude had softened, Cheng Shi immediately asked the same question again, "Who exactly told you about me?"

But Hong Lin didn't reply. Instead, she took the stolen bottle of "Past Prosperity" and sniffed it carefully. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "The real thing?"

Cheng Shi was taken aback, realizing that this was Hong Lin's answer.

Authentic or counterfeit?

His mind immediately began to recall everything about the Past Prosperity. Before long, he thought of the bottle of "Fleeting Radiance" that he had created, and remembered the [Annihilation] Trials that took place in the wilderness and everyone involved in the Trials.

After eliminating Old Cui, Zhao Qian, Su Yida, and Gao Yu in turn, a familiar pretty face came to mind.

Tao Yi!

It turns out that Hong Lin is Tao Yi's friend!

Cheng Shi suddenly realized what was happening, and then burst into laughter:

"The Druid's friend is Wood Elf, that makes perfect sense, haha, I should have thought of that sooner. So, how is Tao Yi doing these days?"

Hong Lin's expression softened slightly upon hearing Tao Yi's name. She looked at Cheng Shi with a scrutinizing gaze and nodded slightly.

"Very good, apart from always thinking about other men, there's nothing wrong with it."

"?"

I feel there's something in your words, but I don't intend to delve into it.
