Cheng Shi shook his head, as if shaking the unclean things out of his mind, and continued the previous topic:

"Since He didn't show himself, how do you know it's Him?"

But Cheng Shi regretted it as soon as he said it, because Hong Lin on the other side fell silent instantly.

Oh no, I said something I shouldn't have.

Sure enough, thinking about colors makes one less sensitive to them.

[Birth] Unlike other gods, His aura is very easy to recognize.

Saying such things in front of the person involved makes the atmosphere somewhat awkward.

Cheng Shi's expression froze for a moment, then he quickly added:

"And then, they took you to an audience, didn't say a word, and then sent you back?"

Yes, that's why I'm confused.

Cheng Shi frowned. "Details, recall more details, otherwise I won't be able to guess what He's going to do."

"No details were given. He pulled me into the Void without showing himself, and then when I... succumbed to the aura of [Birth], I was sent out again."

"The Void? He summoned you in the Void?"

"Right."

"..."

Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat, wondering if He was looking for him.

Although Cheng Shi has not met many gods, based on his experience, gods usually summon players to their own territories, even if their territories are in the Void, they are still each god's private domain.

For example, the divine shade of [Prosperity], the Fishbone Hall of [Death], the Memory Archive of [Memory], or the Temple of [Chaos].

Why did [Birth] only throw the Big Cat into the Void?

His choice to summon the Big Cat at this time is most likely due to the fall of [Prosperity], but in this whole affair, the only thing that can be connected to the Void is:

[Nothingness], [Deception], [Destiny], and... Cheng Dashi.

And each of these four is related to himself.

I'm numb.

What does He mean?

If you want to see me, why not just summon me directly? Why summon Hong Lin?

Or perhaps I'm overthinking it, and He just wants to see what the eldest daughter of [Prosperity] looks like?

But didn't we see it during the [The Gods' Covenant Assembly]? They all have two eyes and one mouth, what's so special about them?

Neither of them had figured it out, but they didn't delve into it either. They simply changed the subject as they talked.

After all, it's really strange to keep talking about "Birth" over the phone.

Cheng Shi changed the subject. In his mind, a Chosen of God who had occupied the Top Rank for two months should have enough information that he needed, so he didn't waste this call and picked out the information he wanted to know, asking questions indirectly.

Hong Lin sensed that Cheng Shi gathering intelligence, so she tried to be as accurate as possible to ensure that the information was not misrepresented at her level.

But there was still one thing she was very curious about: Cheng Shi's score.

Logically speaking, such a mysterious and powerful organization should not have low-scoring players among its members, but the problem is that she has never heard of Cheng Shi's name among the Peak Player.

The most outrageous thing is that she also heard Cheng Shi's name from Tao Yi's mouth, but Tao Yi's score... how could she be matched with Cheng Shi?

Recalling Cheng Shi's series of actions, Hong Lin immediately ruled out the possibility that Cheng Shi had a low score, so she could only guess that Tao Yi had hit the jackpot and was matched with a high-level game.

She was never one to keep things to herself, so when she was providing information to Cheng Shi, she asked about this matter several times, but Cheng Shi subtly changed the subject.

After being asked many times, Hong Lin figured it out: Cheng Shi's ranking on the leaderboard didn't seem high, at least not as high as the level of the Peak Player he matched with every day.

He's betting on the score!

But why?

The higher the score, the better all the rewards. He's such a smart guy, a player who can even go toe-to-toe with Zhen Yi, so why is he betting on his score?

However, since Cheng Shi was unwilling to talk about it, she wisely refrained from pressing the matter. The two chatted about this and that, and before long, the conversation returned to the topic of the Chosen of God. Cheng Shi hesitated for a moment before asking:

Do you know anything about this Blind Man man?

Hearing this, Hong Lin became even more certain that Cheng Shi, otherwise he would have been matched with the Chosen of God of [Destiny].

Speaking of which, she was also a little curious about how this self-proclaimed "Chosen of God of Destiny," who claimed to have seen through Destiny, viewed the organization of the Fated.

But... she doesn't seem to know?

Interesting. Next time I meet her, I'll have to be careful not to let my the Fated slip up.

"Those who know her well, or those who are high- Peak Player, should have all been matched with her."

The Blind Man's real An Mingyu, she...

He was a very special Prophet.

Surname An?

What a coincidence?

Cheng Shi frowned and continued to ask, "Is she very close to Zhen Xin?"

"Yes, it should be said that it is very good, very good without any concealment. Almost all players who know both of them know that they have a good relationship. Of course, the relationship between the Blind Man and Zhen Yi is very bad, the kind of bad that is extremely hostile."

"..."

Not surprising, as expected.

However, after learning this, Cheng Shi suddenly began to examine the Puppeteer An Jing from his Memory.

Since the Puppeteer and Zhen Xin had achieved such a wonderful synergy, and Zhen Xin had an exceptionally good relationship with An Mingyu, and considering the An Jing "An" in her name...

So, is it this surname "An" that connects them?

Are the Blind Man and the Puppeteer related?

That makes sense; being blind and mute is indeed quite tragic...

However, during the Trials, Hong Lin did not find any resemblance between the An Jing and the Blind Man, so this can only be a guess.

After all, the matter is over, and there is no point in dwelling on the identity of a Puppeteer at this time. Cheng Shi wants to clarify this matter not to review it, but to be better prepared when he sees Zhen Xin next time, at least to narrow the information gap as much as possible.

Knowing yourself and your enemy may not guarantee victory in every battle, but it will at least prevent you from being defeated before the battle even begins. Therefore, it is indeed very important to review your performance regularly.

"Is she really blind?" Cheng Shi continued to ask.

"Yes, she is truly Blind Man. I heard Zhen Xin mention that she wasn't actually Blind Man before the [Faith Game] descended; she only lost her sight afterward."

Even though she blindfolded herself, she could still "see." She once said that she couldn't see concrete things, but she could see the flow of Destiny, so she considered herself someone who had seen through Destiny.

"Has he seen through Destiny?"

"Tsk, she really dares to say that. Our Lord of Grace never caused her any trouble?"

Our Lord of Grace...

Hong Lin was still a little unaccustomed to becoming a Believer in "Destiny," and after hearing this, she said with a strange expression:

"She seems to have never yet met [Destiny]..."

?

Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment. "How is that possible? The Chosen of God of [Destiny] has never met [Destiny]?"

"No one knows if it's true or not, because it was Zhen Yi who said it, but strangely, the Blind Man never denied it."

So everyone just believed it, but everyone thought that she was so in sync with the will of [Destiny] that He no longer needed to give audience-style guidance.

Before I met [the Lord of Grace Destiny], I thought it made sense, and after meeting Him, I felt it made even more sense.

After all, He is as cold and Abyss as "Nothingness."

Is it possible that you're mistaken?

However, Cheng Shi would definitely not say this. After thinking for a moment, he asked again:

"So what makes her so special? Is it that a Blind Man can see the world clearly? Or is it that her predictions are exceptionally accurate?"

"No, none of that. What makes her special is that she possesses 16 Dice of Destiny!"

"???"

To seize the young?
