At Destiny's Hands, Buying in Bulk
Cheng Shi was stunned; he had never heard of anyone possessing a two-digit Dice of Destiny.
Is it reasonable that the number Dice is greater than the number I rolled?
Is this possible?
Could it be open?
He asked again, still incredulous, "Sixteen?"
"Yes, 16, and each of the Dice of Destiny is different."
Since embarking on the path of "Destiny", the Blind Man's Dice do not rise to the next level like other Believer of "Destiny". Instead, after reaching each score point, he is given a new Dice, a brand new Dice that has risen to the next level.
Therefore, she possesses all the Dice from 6 to 21 sides, a total of 16.
"..."
Oh no, this time we've run into a true "Destiny's " favorite. She can actually get wholesale deals from "Destiny."
"No wonder you all believed her prediction so much. Even with the worst luck, you'd still get 16 points in this round..."
"What's the use of a letter? She was still... Never mind, bad luck, let's not talk about her."
But what's the point of asking so many questions about Blind Man? You're not trying to... pull her into your the Fated?
Haha, would I dare?
If someone's opening prediction with 16 Dice reveals all my secrets, then why should I pretend to be a madman of Destiny? I might as well go home and play the Clown.
Of course, he couldn't say that he was asking this question to prepare for the future Chosen of God, so he could only laugh it off and say:
"Just out of curiosity."
"How come you're even more curious than me?"
"..."
Cheng Shi twitched his lips, thinking to himself, "Big Cat, it seems your self-awareness has disappeared. This is not a good sign."
"Thank you for saying so much. Let's call it a day. Phone calls are quite expensive."
Hong Lin's expression turned extremely strange upon hearing this:
"Your excuse for hanging up is pretty lame, but don't hang up yet. His treasure trove has plenty of things. Think about what you're missing, and we'll give it to you for free today."
Oh right! I almost forgot about that!
Since some of the test takers had already become invigilators, it would be a waste to cheat only once. At the mention of this, Cheng Shi perked up, saying with delight:
"What good stuff do you have?"
"There are too many good things to give you all, it's unrealistic and the rules don't allow it. Just tell me what you need."
"Let me think... Prosperity is the abundance of mind and spirit, emphasizing both Vitality and spiritual flourishing. I am currently free of Vitality, so... do you have anything that can enhance Divine Power?"
Hong Lin pondered for a moment and then responded:
"I have a general idea, but there are too many things to find. Before the next Special Trial, pray for a Trials of prosperity, and I will give you the items."
"It's that simple?"
"It's that simple!"
"Bald guy, you've become so attractive!"
"..." Hong Lin paused abruptly, then said with a half-smile, "I'm also charming when I'm beating people up. Want to see for yourself?"
"Then forget it..." Cheng Shi chuckled awkwardly, then continued, "Oh right, since you can bestow it, does that mean that the players' offerings to Him can also go to you?"
"Yes, what is it? Is there something you want to give me?"
"Divinity, bald head, you've forgotten the Divinity you temporarily possess within me," Cheng Shi said earnestly.
"Oh? So it wasn't lent out but temporarily stored?"
"..."stiff.
"No need to rush to return it, I've lent it to you." Hong Lin smiled, then said solemnly, "After becoming Emissary, I've had some insights. Perhaps what I need isn't these disassembled puzzle pieces, nor those scattered fragments, but something of my own."
Let me study it some more. Before I figure it out, I'll lend you these Divinity. Hmm, that's too good of you. I'll rent them to you first.
The rent is like this phone call; keep in touch regularly.
Look at this, that's what generosity looks like!
Compared to the Grand Marshal's forced generosity, the bald man's generosity is truly genuine!
Cheng Shi laughed, a really happy laugh.
"The boss is very generous! Don't worry, I'll definitely use it sparingly!"
"?"
"Oh, I misspoke. I promise I won't lose it."
"You'd better be!"
After chatting for a few more minutes, the two finally hung up the phone, and Cheng Shi asked at the end how to make a phone call to someone.
Hong Lin said that all you need to do is put the microphone to your ear and say the target's real name. If the target also has the same phone, then you can make the call.
Cheng Shi looked at the phone in his hand and suddenly had an idea. He held it to his ear and read out a name.
The call went through, rang three times, and was answered by a woman with a cold tone.
"An unexpected phone call. This call wasn't in yesterday's prophecy, so who are you?"
Cheng Shi was taken aback, thinking that the other party was actually willing to use one prophecy a day for this purpose, but he did not remain silent for long. Instead, after thinking for a moment, he asked a question that might seem very strange to the other party:
"If the God I Faith in has died, should I steadfastly pursue the empty Divine Throne, or should I renounce my vows and seek the protection of another God?"
He deliberately lowered his voice, hoarse his tone, and blurred his pitch, making his voice indistinguishable yet highly recognizable.
Because anyone who hears this voice will immediately think that the other person is deliberately faking it.
The person on the other end of the phone clearly didn't recognize Cheng Shi's voice. After a moment of silence, they asked with surprise:
"An interesting question: So, who do you Faith?"
Cheng Shi deliberately stalled for a while, pretending to be conflicted, and said:
"Prosperity, I Faith prosperity."
The other party fell completely silent for a long time before speaking in a cold voice:
"Who are you?"
Cheng Shi didn't reply and hung up the phone directly.
The other party was clearly Blind Man, and Cheng Shi's reason for making this call was not simply to tease the Chosen of God of [Destiny], but to try to amplify the impact of the fall of [Prosperity].
In the present moment, where the [Faith Game] remains Change, if he tells people that a supreme being has fallen, perhaps no one will believe him; they will only think of him as a delusional madman. But if these words come from the mouth of the [Destiny] Chosen of God one, the effect will be completely different.
Cheng Shi knew, of course, that Blind Man wouldn't believe such a thing based on just a random phone call, but if she had enough curiosity, she would definitely trace the source of her call.
If these phones were all given out by Big Cat, then she would definitely try to subtly inquire with Big Cat.
Big Cat isn't stupid. When she realized the Blind Man was testing her, she probably knew that she was the one who leaked the news of [Prosperity's] fall. Given her personality, she would probably cover it up for herself and not say anything more.
This will lead the increasingly curious Chosen of God one of "Destiny" to use her prophecies to investigate the truth. Once she obtains the truth, or rather, the vague truth, the fall of "Prosperity" may be spread through her words.
This was a casual move. Cheng Shi didn't know if spreading this matter would actually be useful, but that didn't stop him from being willing to push it forward behind the scenes.
If Cheng Dashi's purpose in returning is to trigger Change, then logically speaking, the greater the Change, the better. Therefore, Cheng Shi wants to give it a try. He doesn't want this hard-won Change to be suddenly strangled by the Covenant's whitewashing of the decline of Prosperity.
Cheng Shi; the Blind Man was indeed very curious.
The moment the call was disconnected, she picked up her Dice of Destiny, intending to cast a divination for the other party, but she quickly gave up and instead frowned as she picked up another phone and dialed a number.
The call was answered immediately, and a clear and steady female voice came through the receiver:
"Mingyu?"
The Blind Man paused for a moment, then sighed and asked, "Where is your sister?"
"Mingyu, stop fooling around, I'm your older sister."
"Okay, then I'll go find my sister."
The other party was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter:
Hehe~
"Then you've come to the right place, I'm a younger sister too."
"... Have her call me."
After saying that, the Blind Man hung up the phone. She twirled the Dice in her hand, then picked up the phone and called Hong Lin again.
When the call was answered, she spoke very quickly:
"He called me, and I agreed."
Hong Lin was taken aback, as if she had thought of something, but still hesitated for a moment, unsure, before asking, "Who?"
Hearing the surprise and hesitation in Hong Lin's tone, the Blind Man hung up the phone and curled the corners of his mouth.
"Interesting, it seems to be a new friend of the bald man."
So what does this new friend want him to do? Make a prophecy?
A prophecy about the fall of prosperity?
Is he a colleague who sees the future? Or does he know some incredible secret?
"Hmm, Xin Xin, call me soon, I'm getting a little too curious."
On the other side, Cheng Shi had just hung up the phone, didn't stop. He tried making a second call, which was also answered. On the other end was a calm and steady male voice.
"It's me."
Cheng Shi was taken aback. He wanted to make a joke, but after thinking about it, he decided against it and hung up the phone without saying anything. Then he looked at the receiver in his hand, shook his head, and chuckled.
"Big Cat has quite a lot of connections."
Meanwhile, in some unknown area of reality, a man dressed in hemp clothing with his hair in a topknot smiled in surprise and put away his microphone.
"Looks like the bald guy has made some new friends?"
Interesting, but I wonder what kind of Memory this is?
