A Follower of Deception Eats a Big Nothingness Pie!

[Deception] Cheng Shi had only seen two kinds of Believer "worshipping God".

One is oneself, and the other is Long Jing.

Furthermore, these two forms appear to overlap significantly, with an overlap rate of up to 99.99%.

This made Cheng Shi wonder if all these swindlers were like this when they worshipped the gods.

If so, it means that it wasn't just that I lacked backbone when I was worshipping the gods, but that the entire group of "Deception" people lacked backbone. In this way, it seems that the blame can be shifted to my Lord of Grace.

After all, a bad team atmosphere must be the leader's fault, not the ordinary soldiers'.

Cheng Shi laughed. He stopped wasting words with Long Jing and started talking to him about serious business. As for what the serious business was, it was naturally to go to Hu Wei's bureau to make some benefits!

Don't forget, this is Cheng Shi's real purpose in deceiving Long Jing!

Cheng Shi wasn't creating a Deception identity for Emissary; he was doing it to avoid being exposed by Long Jing so he could gain benefits within the Grand Marshal's scheme. His goal remained unchanged from beginning to end:

Greed to the fullest extent possible!

And this was his fundamental purpose in setting Zhen Yi up.

So after Long Jing automatically filled in all the illogical things in his mind, Cheng Shi got straight to the point: his goal was to get Long Jing to help him find the treasure.

Of course, one can't be so blunt. Everything needs to be packaged before selling, and scams naturally need to be packaged in a more plausible way.

Therefore, Cheng Shi, in his capacity as Emissary, "Fool's Game" and said:

"If Fawning isn't a deception, then it's meaningless."

"Put away your greasy act, President Gong. I still prefer how you Deception the masses on the Stage of the Fool's Society."

Upon hearing this, Long Jing felt reassured. He felt no embarrassment at all; instead, he was certain of one thing: this Emissary was indeed the one from the Fool's Society, and not some "third person" who had infiltrated midway.

Therefore, He must have come for the tongue.

Does Zhen Yi know about this?

She probably doesn't know, otherwise how could she dare to confront an Emissary?

Furthermore, how did the Emissary take the tongue from her hands?

Oh right, that's His own tongue after all. Taking back what's His own should be much easier than the player relying on the power of the contract.

Long Jing bowed respectfully without speaking. He sensed that the other person had not finished speaking, so he pretended to listen attentively and continued to wait for his "opportunity".

Cheng Shi didn't finish speaking; he continued:

"I am indeed looking for something, as for what it is..."

As he spoke, he picked up the Tongue of Lies beside him, flashed it in his hand, and then stored it away in his spatial storage. He then looked at Long Jing with a half-smile and said:

"You see, these are the things."

As soon as he finished speaking, Long Jing's pupils contracted again.

He seemed to understand the Emissary's meaning again: a tongue! No, it should be said... something resembling a tongue?

Could it be that this Fool's Game Master has other "organs" left behind?!

Wouldn't this be the perfect opportunity to "make a name for yourself"?

Long Jing's eyes widened suddenly, but he dared not interrupt the Emissary's speech, and waited eagerly for what would follow.

"That's right, you guessed it. It's some small, fragmented parts. These pieces of my body are too restless; they always cause me some trouble every time I go through an era."

So you don't need to be nervous. The fact that you 'coincidentally' found this broken tongue may not be a real coincidence. It may be that it is secretly influencing you.

Alright, you don't need to know anything else. Just know that in the game orchestrated by this player whom you call the Grand Marshal, there might be clues to other fragments of my body. That's why I wanted to join your game in this capacity.

How can Fool's Game Fool's Game the Fool's Game without participating in a game?

I spent a long time negotiating with Him before finally getting a player spot, and that's what I came here for.

President Gong, I have a good impression of you, much better than His collection, so keep up the good work. I hope to see you at the Audience Assembly, preferably in your so-called Chosen of God identity.

"Hmm, Chosen of God, that's a good title."

After saying Cheng Shi smiled and patted Long Jing on the shoulder, just like an old leader making empty promises to a new employee.

But Long Jing accepted this Nothingness promise without hesitation!

And they devoured it whole, afraid of missing out on this lavish feast!

His eyes gleamed, not only because he knew how to help his Lord of Grace's Emissary, but also because he had heard a lot of information he didn't know before from the Emissary's "unintentional" revelation.

For example, the troubles of the Emissary, the so-called era, the player identity obtained from Him, and... His collection!

Of course, it would be even better if these words were "intentional," as it would mean that the envoy in front of him Emissary very interested in him, and interest is the first step to progress!

Even when not being watched by the gods, it would be excellent to first gain the attention of an Emissary.

At least in Long Jing's understanding, getting to know an Emissary is something that many Peak Player can only dream of.

Although I did not directly communicate with the gods, I have at least taken the first step in "communicating with the gods"!

It was totally worth it!

Praise the Tongue of Lies, praise the great master of Fool's Game, praise the great God of Merriment, Deception!

Seeing the excited and thrilled gleam in Long Jing's eyes, Cheng Shi smiled happily.

This conversation not only resolved his own identity issue but also convinced a younger brother who wanted to improve himself. However, none of this was the most important thing. The most important thing was that Cheng Shi asked the question that had been bothering him in front of others.

The question remains: does Mouth Brother really have any "brothers" left behind outside?

The moment Cheng Shi got his Tongue of Lies, he was thinking about this question. He had also secretly asked Mouth Brother, but Mouth Brother refused to answer.

Tongue Brother can usually chat for a bit, but when asked this question, he pretends to be dead like Mouth Brother, which makes Cheng Shi even more certain that the two of them are deliberately hiding something!

This performance was also a test of the Lips of Foolish Play and the Tongue of Lies. He wanted to see how they would react when he voiced his conjecture and reasonably shared it with outsiders.

But as Cheng Shi had expected, they still did not react at all.

But Cheng Shi wasn't in a hurry at all, because this was just the first step. If he wanted to know the story behind Mouth Brother, there was still a long way to go.

The Lips of Foolish Play... Fool's Game...

Does He really exist?

If not, then what method did Mouth Brother use to deceive the gods?

Surely the gods can't have discovered it but then do nothing about it?

At first, Cheng Shi thought that this was very likely his Lord of Grace's "surveillance device," but as time went on and he spent more time with Mouth Brother, he gradually rejected this idea.

It must have a story, perhaps even a very interesting one.

It seems it's time to get down to business and explore the power of our own [Nothingness]. We can't keep doing odd jobs for others, right?

Given their previous relationship, the atmosphere should have fallen silent at this point.

But when Long Jing learned Cheng Shi's true identity, he became very lively. He had so many things he wanted to know, and seeing that the Emissary was not in a hurry to leave, he carefully crafted his words and asked all his questions.

"My Lord Foolish Play, forgive my intrusion, but is this Fate Weaver named Cheng Shi the player you... are you about to bring?"

May I contact you using this?

Cheng Shi chuckled inwardly, thinking that this Acrobat was quite greedy, already taking advantage of the situation to ask for his contact information.

But Cheng Shi wasn't going to ruin his identity. He needed multiple aliases so that he could better disguise himself as he became increasingly exposed.

So he chuckled and said:

"Until my body fragments are found, my advice is not to contact me."

Of course, you can't contact me either.

My so-called identity is merely a qualification to participate in the Trials like a player; as for the list they compiled, my name will not be on it.

During the Trials, I had many identities, which were often those of interesting people I had met.

I've met that Fate Weaver before; he's... quite an interesting person when it Destiny.

I sensed the presence of a broken tongue emanating from him, which led me to follow the clues and find His collection.

Is this the Emissary?

Almost every sentence contained information that had never been heard before!

Long Jing was so refreshing, it was like an orgasm in my brain.

He was eager to learn more, whether it was the story of the Emissary or news about the fragments of the Emissary's body, but Cheng Shi knew when to stop and refused to say anything more that would give him away.

Seeing the Emissary's smile grow increasingly amused, Long Jing realized he had crossed the line.

He quickly swallowed the words he was about to say and obediently sat back down.

"No one is responsible for all your doubts, just as there is no one who can answer my doubts."

You know enough. Go back now. Hopefully, we'll both gain something from the next Trials.

Even the Emissary has doubts?

What could be so important as to Emissary confusion?

Long Jing became even more curious, but he knew when to stop. So he looked at Cheng Shi with great excitement, nodded solemnly, and secretly made a mental note of helping the Emissary find the body fragments.

An Acrobat and a Clown reached a false agreement in an absurd hoax, then smiled at each other and went their separate ways.

Just as Long Jing removed the surrounding Curtain and took a few steps back, another exchange on the side also came to an end.
