Cheng Shi's exclamation of "[chaos]" was not just a random shout.

Grand Marshal Hu Wei's second Faith is "Chaos," and the fisherman killed by Hu Xuan also Faith "Chaos." This is enough to show that the players in that campfire camp are more or less related to "Chaos."

The simplest extension of this conjecture is:

These Believer in "war" and "chaos" may be trying to merge their Faith and bind "war" and "chaos" together.

So, just as Cheng Shi had thought before, could Da Yi's second Faith also be "chaos"?

Even if not, this Assassin from [War] must have an inextricable connection with [Chaos].

Cheng Shi couldn't impersonate a "war" figure because he wasn't familiar with "war," but he was familiar with "chaos"...

We're so familiar with each other.

If Cheng Shi weren't unsure how much Da Yi knew about [Chaos], he would have loved to pat Da Yi on the shoulder and explain it to him like this:

"Have you heard of the Chaos Divine Steps? I've danced on it."

Seeing that Da Yi reacted strongly to what he had said, Cheng Shi.

He didn't explain further, nor did he ask Da Yi for an immediate response. Instead, he smiled, took out a key, and looked at Da Yi, saying:

"Every Door Key needs a door to prove itself; an ordinary door won't do. So, Believer in [war], do you still have the corpses of others on your body?"

Upon hearing the strange, song-like melody, Da Yi's expression became complicated and odd.

He couldn't yet confirm Cheng Shi's true identity, but the only thing he was certain of was that this "Cheng Shi" was definitely not a player.

He recalled the scene he had witnessed in the snowstorm, and the image of Cheng Shi inserting the key into the Gongyang Jiao's eye socket. He guessed that Cheng Shi wanted to take him somewhere, but he was still hesitant.

Da Yi is torn between taking a gamble.

That's right, it's a gamble.

When faced with the unknown, no one knows where the risks lie. He could choose to trust Cheng Shi and follow him to that terrifying bone gate to see what was inside.

Of course, he could also refuse Cheng Shi and choose not to believe the other party's nonsense.

The problem was that the other party accurately said the word "chaos," which made him unable to make a judgment for a moment.

Could he be that the Great One?

If so, what is He doing?

Da Yi is good at observation and perception, and he is also good at judging the situation. He may be irritable, but he can still handle various interpersonal relationships well. However, this is only when dealing with players of the same level as him. Once it comes to "socializing upwards", his mind seems to not work as fast.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of a friend.

"Damn it, if only Lin Renyu hadn't died. That guy really knows how to read the emperor's mind."

Da Yi muttered something unconsciously. Cheng Shi silently memorized the name but made no reaction.

After a few seconds, the Assassin of [War] somehow convinced himself and finally took a "brave" step, taking out a complete corpse from his personal space and placing it in front of Cheng Shi.

"..."

As expected of "war," Cheng Shi's eye twitched slightly.

This is clearly the corpse of a soldier from the [Nation of War]. The armor is still on his body, and the blood has not been congealed for long. Obviously, this should be the spoils of Trials from the last trial of Da Yi.

Cheng Shi didn't examine the corpse too closely; instead, he directly inserted the key into the corpse's forehead.

Before long, the large door covered with bone patterns reappeared before the two of them.

Cheng Shi chuckled lightly, "It's not convenient to talk here," and then stepped inside.

As Da Yi approached the door, he frowned as he looked at the bone gate surging with the aura of death. He took out a palm-sized banner from his personal space and quietly stuck it on the floor beneath his feet before cautiously following him inside.

This was the first time that the Dolgo D Evil Infant Tribunal had welcomed any guests other than Cheng Shi since Afros had awakened.

The magnificent architecture and bizarre style filled Da Yi, who had never been to this place before, with suspicion. He carefully observed everything around him, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper. After holding back for a long time, he finally couldn't help but blurt out:

"Grandma... this doesn't seem like a place of Birth."

Cheng Shi stood beside him, looking at the gate leading to the Abyss before him, and raised an eyebrow.

You guessed right, but there's no reward.

Unfortunately, we're short on funds in the early stages of starting our business, and we simply don't have a better place to entertain you victims, so we'll have to make do for now.

However, as long as the atmosphere is right, there's no need to push it to the extreme. What can deceive people is always the script, not the background.

Cheng Shi had already written the script, so the moment Da Yi decided to follow him into this place, the other party had already fallen into a trap woven with lies.

"Indeed, you have a keen eye; this is the very place of [Birth]."

Da Yi didn't dare get too close, but he also didn't dare to stay too far away. Cheng Shi's sudden change in temperament and confidence made him uneasy. He felt that he had guessed correctly, and the other party seemed to be that the Great One, but he was not sure, and he dared not ask directly.

He feared that if Cheng Shi really was Cheng Shi, and he asked the question aloud, it would undoubtedly make him appear foolish and disrespectful.

But if he didn't ask, based solely on the methods Cheng Shi had demonstrated, he didn't seem to have seen them in that the Great One before.

It was during this torment of uncertainty about his identity that Da Yi's expression grew increasingly grim.

This hot-tempered Believer in "war" was now like a schoolchild being punished, standing helplessly in front of the door not far from Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi wanted to laugh, but continued to speak in a serious tone, "They have begun to revive."

"Who!?" Da Yi was suddenly stunned, his pupils shrinking sharply.

"Who are they? They are, of course, the long-silent Subgod."

Cheng Shi chuckled and pointed to the gate of the Evil Infant Tribunal, speaking slowly and deliberately:

"This is the place where [Birth] once watched over us. You should have some idea of how crazy [Life] can be."

I received word that Lucia seems to be returning to His embrace.

Look, even the usually peaceful entity of "Birth" is starting to take Proxy, and we...

How can we stand still and not move forward?

This sounds mysterious and sophisticated, but upon closer examination, it becomes clear that apart from some information about them, there is no substantial content that is worthy of affirmation.

But as the old saying goes, that's how scams work.

When you want to deceive someone, what you say is not important; what matters is what the other person hears and what they think based on what they hear.

After Cheng Shi finished speaking, another player, Da Yi, told himself that the person in front of him was most likely that the Great One.

The tone was too similar, and what He said was on a completely different level from what the players knew.

Although he still had doubts about the significance of this adult playing Cheng Shi and about the other party's image, Da Yi's attitude began to gradually soften.

"My lord, what brings you here this time...?"

Cheng Shi saw that Da Yi bowed slightly, spoke respectfully, and smiled even more broadly.

Oh wow, so you can't completely suppress your verbal tic after all?

It seems like I was unworthy before.

However, it was because of this that Cheng Shi finally confirmed that Hu Wei and his people were indeed in contact with a certain Emissary from the "Chaos" faction.

Previously, he was just guessing, and the whole scam was also progressing based on a guess. It was like the Clown taking over the job of the Acrobat and jumping onto a tightrope thousands of feet in the sky. If an accident happened during the process, the Clown would fall directly and be smashed to pieces.

Fortunately, this Clown surnamed Cheng has always had good luck with gambling.

He guessed right again.

As for whether this Emissary was indeed the one Cheng Shi was thinking of...

That will be another new gamble.

Cheng Shi looked at Da Yi, who was expecting his response, and kept spinning a [Destiny] die behind his back.

Ultraman, in front of Da Yi, should I be the Chaos Emissary Ultraman?
