"You insulted me?"

After sneezing, Cheng Shi turned the tables and asked a strange question that left Mo Shu completely bewildered. He shook his head in surprise and then laughed out loud.

"I never play such pointless tricks. If there's something I don't like, I just Annihilation. There's no need to keep my unhappiness inside."

Moreover, you harbor the thought of "Annihilation," so I'm not here to find you, but to find the two of them.

Don't hide anymore; even if you hide behind someone else, you can't escape the Destiny of being Annihilation.

The Cleaner spoke casually, but every word he uttered sent chills down Scorpio and Gao Ya's spines.

Gao Ya pulled down his hood and took a half step back, quietly singing various auxiliary tunes behind Cheng Shi. Between the tunes, he didn't forget to urge Cheng Shi on:

"You took the gloves, but where's my cake?"

Cheng Shi suddenly produced another piece of cake from his hands behind his back, but he ignored Gao Ya and directly stuffed it into Tian Xie's hand, while saying to Mo Shu with a serious expression:

"Impossible. My senses are very sharp. I sneeze whenever someone insults me, so you must have just insulted me."

Mo Shu was stunned again. He didn't know why Cheng Shi troubled by this, but he had plenty of time, so he decided to play with Cheng Shi for a while.

"Oh? Even though I Annihilation my presence, you could still sense that I was being insulted?"

Cheng Shi nodded with a serious expression.

Mo Shu laughed; he laughed heartily.

"You can't! I cursed you when I said that, but you didn't sneeze. You're lying, Fate Weaver."

However, Cheng Shi wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, he looked at the Cleaner with a smug expression and said excitedly:

"You still say you didn't curse!"

"?"

After hunting down his teammates for so long, Mo Shu once again felt powerless and helpless. He realized that he seemed to have been set up, but he was the one who had fallen into the trap.

He looked at Cheng Shi speechlessly, feeling that the Fate Weaver opposite him was like a slippery eel. No matter how you tried to catch it, it could break free from your control and take the opportunity to spit on you.

The last time I had this feeling was when I ran into his rumored girlfriend Zhen Yi.

Indeed, birds of a feather flock together.

Just when he was feeling speechless and didn't want to talk, Cheng Shi continued to push his luck.

"What I hate most is people talking about me behind my back. Since you've insulted me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Shi ignored his two trembling teammates behind him, grabbed two Scalpel, and charged towards the Cleaner.

His charge was so fierce that Scorpio and Gao Ya were stunned by his posture.

Gao Ya was shocked. He thought to himself Cheng Shi, a Priest, was at most a little more durable than Singer. How could he dare to play like a warrior?

Scorpios are simple-minded. In their view, Cheng Shi is still the same bald-headed Chosen of God Baldy Uses Pantene. There's nothing wrong with Chosen of God one countering Chosen of God. Besides, Cheng Shi has admitted that he is a Druid, which makes it even more reasonable.

The warriors of [Prosperity] are never afraid of being wounded.

The only unreasonable thing is that his charging posture was full of flaws, and he didn't look like a mature soldier at all, but rather like Clown trying to attract attention.

However, considering his prestigious title as the Chosen of God, Scorpio felt that these numerous flaws might be a trap set to attract the Cleaner's attention and wait for him to take the bait!

Mo Shu, the person involved, thought the same way, but he thought one step further than Scorpio.

He knew that a player who could be praised by Peak Player was definitely not someone to be trifled with, so he never looked down on Cheng Shi because he was a Fate Weaver. In fact, he reacted the moment Cheng Shi kicked off the ground and sprang into the air.

The Cleaner vanished instantly, reappearing on the rooftop in the distance. With a casual wave of his hand, he sent the two Scalpel in Cheng Shi's hand directly into the world that was about to Annihilation.

Before the two sides even met, the attackers were out of weapons, which made Scorpion and Gao Ya extremely nervous and terrified.

Cheng Shi himself wasn't surprised. He hadn't expected his Scalpel to cause much damage to the other party. His purpose in charging was simply to get close enough to Mo Shu to...

"Boom--"

He unleashed a "Thunderclap Judgment" with his mouth.

It was all fake. He never intended to confront Mo Shu head-on. The purpose of these feints was simply to test the other party's strength. After all, the other party was a Chosen of God and had met with the God of Merriment. If he had some strange tricks up his sleeve and had just used an illusion to fool the three of them, that would be too embarrassing.

So Cheng Shi stepped forward and took a gamble. When he saw Mo Shu cautiously retreating, he knew that what was in front of him was not an illusion, but the real [Annihilation] Chosen of God.

Interestingly, both Death and Annihilation, these two highly aggressive beings, have Chosen of God who are cautious. It has to be said that they have truly mastered the art of Faith.

Seeing that Mo Shu was still frowning, observing whether his "boom" would cause Change in the surroundings, Cheng Shi quickly dodged back, clicking his tongue as he retreated:

"As expected of Chosen of God, you even managed to evade my [Deception Judgment]. You've got some skill."

I acknowledge your abilities. Considering your considerable skill, I'll let the insults go; after all, I'm a forgiving person.

"..."

"..."

"..."

This "I'm so tolerant" attitude left the stunned Gao Ya completely bewildered once again.

She recalled for a moment, confirming that she hadn't sung any soloist's tune to influence Cheng Shi; what she had just sung were just ordinary amplified melodies.

So, has this Fate Weaver always been this brave?

Mo Shu's expression finally softened; even if he were stupid, he could tell that what had just happened was Cheng Shi's test. He'd actually been tricked into retreating so far by two Scalpel —this was truly...

Interesting.

Void-Reality Convergence, manipulating people's hearts and minds—what a legendary Fate Weaver! Truly remarkable!

He looked at Cheng Shi again, his eyes revealing an undisguised interest in Cheng Shi.

"Not playing anymore?"

Cheng Shi pursed his lips. "Forget it, I still want to speedrun the Trials. Let's talk about it next time we meet."

"Good, very good, Cheng Shi. Just like you said, I also approve of you, so you can leave now. Go and complete your Trials quickly."

However, the two people behind you have to stay; they... don't have my approval.

Most importantly, they have never tasted a cake I made myself.

However, I understand the importance of reciprocity, and next time I see you, I will remember to keep your share of the cake.

Then, let's continue today's game.

Mo Shu's words undoubtedly signaled to Cheng Shi that their next meeting would likely be very unpleasant, but Cheng Shi heard another meaning in them: that the other party was a person who abided by the rules.

At the very least, he is someone who will abide by the rules he sets for himself.

Because he had eaten that piece of cake, the Cleaner was not going to lay a hand on him during this Trials.

It seems that the path he has taken has truly shown him hope at the end of the road to Faith.

But the way you're doing it makes you seem like Believer in "Order".

Cheng Shi clicked his tongue and said meaningfully:

"You haven't actually met with [Order], have you?"

Mo Shu could tell it was sarcastic, but he smiled and remained silent.

But this kind of smiling tiger is often the most terrifying, which means that he has no intention of giving up his murder plan.

Cheng Shi had no choice but to turn around and signal to Scorpio to quickly eat the cake.

Scorpio had wanted to eat it for a long time, but he was afraid that if the timing was wrong, he would attract a direct attack from the Cleaner. When he saw Cheng Shi's signal, he immediately understood and stuffed the cake into his mouth in one bite.

Looking at Scorpio with cream all over his mouth, Cheng Shi smiled and asked Mo Shu:

"And what do you say now?"
