"Good!

"As long as you can control him, leave the rest to me."

Cheng Shi laughed, "Have you been eyeing her for a while now? Have you been thinking about her?"

"Yes, Hunter have stronger senses than other professions, especially Hunter like Yu Mu, whose perception is frighteningly sharp."

Although I don't lack these things, having another piece that can sense its environment is never a bad thing.

"Why do I hear you saying you're planning to turn him into a puppet?"

"Almost. There are some soul contracts in the treasure vault of [Prosperity] that have such bizarre effects that even I can't stand them. I haven't tried them yet, so I'll just have to give them a shot."

"Speaking of which, Cheng Shi, quickly pray that your things will be taken away."

My things?

What is it?

Cheng Shi was taken aback, then immediately remembered something. Before he crashed into the [Birth] Trials, he had originally wanted to pray for a [Prosperity] Trials and get an item from the Big Cat to increase his Divine Power.

As a result, things have been going wrong all along. I've already participated in two Trials, but I still haven't gotten the items.

"..."

Cheng Shi gave a wry smile and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll make a wish in a bit. But come with me, I'll take you somewhere and introduce you to an interesting new friend."

"An interesting new friend?" Hong Lin raised an eyebrow, surprised. "From what you're saying, this person has a story?"

Story?

If the fact that you gave birth to yourself is considered a story rather than an accident, then it certainly has a story.

You'll know when you get there.

"By the way, I wanted to ask you about someone. Have you heard of a player named Lin Renyu?"

Hong Lin chuckled softly on the other end of the phone and immediately replied, "Him? What, did you run into him?"

"It seems they know each other, but I haven't run into them. I heard about them from other people. I'm very curious about what kind of person they are."

"A Maestro of Lost Rhythms didn't make the top ten, but was quite famous."

The Maestro of Lost Rhythms!

[Confusion]!

As expected, Lin Renyu, whom Da Yi had mentioned, was also a person of "chaos".

Ha, so the clues that the Grand Marshal was Believer in "Chaos" were already buried in these subtle clues. The fisherman that Hu Xuan killed, Lin Renyu whom Da Yi talked about every day, and Da Yi who played the role of Xi Guang Tie Ci... all three of them are high-scoring "Chaos". Thinking about it this way, wasn't that campfire camp where the four of them gathered just a "Chaos" party?

Unfortunately, even though everyone knew each other, the chaos made it impossible for them to find any clues.

As expected of "Chaos," they really know how to play it.

Cheng Shi clicked his tongue in admiration and then asked, "Judging from your tone, this 'reputation' doesn't seem to be very good. Tell me about it?"

Hong Lin laughed heartily:

His fame was given by Chen Shu.

This person was not well-known at first and liked to impersonate others. Later, he was matched with Chen Shu, who saw through Chen Shu disguise.

Although the Chen Shu was annoying, it must be admitted that the Believer of "Silence" was indeed observant. He saw through Lin Renyu's identity and then impersonated him, causing chaos in Kato Court, to the point that the capital of this Grand Inquisition directly enacted a law to arrest this Maestro of Lost Rhythms.

Coincidentally, there was also a Believer in [Memory] in that Trials, who, under Chen Shu, even wrote this law into history...

Later, as you might have guessed, although Lin Renyu killed the [Memory] Believer to vent his anger, he was unable to kill Chen Shu, so afterwards he always used Chen Shu's name to create chaos everywhere.

This person is very shrewd. Even if he's not one of the Peak Player, you should still be careful if you encounter him.

"..."

A Maestro of Lost Rhythms likes to cause trouble under the name "Chen Shu"?

Ah?

Could it be... him?

Cheng Shi's expression became incredibly interesting. He thought about it for a long time and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was true. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Hearing the laughter, Hong Lin asked in surprise, "What?"

"It's alright, don't be careful, you'll never run into each other again."

Hong Lin was stunned, not understanding for a moment. "What's going on?"

"Nothing much. I think I've seen him before. He was killed, killed by a very powerful person. As for who killed him... I didn't see clearly."

"Oh, I see. What's that amazing person's last name? Is it the same as yours?"

"..." No, sis, you're kind of cute when you're a little silly sometimes, don't be too smart.

Cheng Shi was stunned. He realized he had said too much in his excitement, but it wasn't worth dwelling on. So much time had passed, and with the effects of [Floating Dream of the Sea of Memory], probably no one knew who had killed the Maestro of Lost Rhythms.

Besides, even if we knew, there was nothing we could do, because the murderer was no longer just the Fate Weaver, but also Ultraman, the Ultraman Emissary the Chaos!

"I always feel like you're smiling in a sly way. Okay, that's about all the news. It's 2:26 now. Check the time. I'll make a prayer at 3 o'clock sharp. The prayer will be the [Prosperity] prayer plus a simple Trials I had with you. Don't break your promise, Cheng Shi. I'm waiting to meet that new friend."

After saying that, Big Cat hung up the phone decisively.

Cheng Shi smiled as he looked at the phone that had just been hung up, feeling that the meeting between Big Cat and Afros might spark new ideas.

His decision to take Big Cat to see this dual Emissary wasn't just to deal with Yu Mu. Simply dealing with a player wouldn't warrant connecting Big Cat, who had inherited the [Prosperity] Divine Authority. The main purpose of this trip was to find Big Cat a person to help him resolve his doubts.

The Big Cat has access to many secrets at that level, but she also has many more questions. She can't consult a True God at any time, and no god will take the time to answer her questions. Therefore, it is especially important to find an intelligence window with a similar identity for her to understand more about the mysteries and rules of the upper levels.

As a temporary "ally," Afros is certainly capable of handling this "job."

Of course, Cheng Shi would Cheng Shi, but the problem is that his only connection is with the prisoner who is locked up by time. Apart from that, he has no other "Emissary".

Hu Xuan could be considered half a cat, but her accumulated experience was not even as much as the original Big Cat.

Thinking about it this way, going to meet with Afros was a last resort.

Sigh, I still lack "friends"...

I already have enough friends in the [Life] guild, [Sinking] is not easy to get in touch with, and [Chaos] is even more insane. After thinking it over, only [Civilization] can still squeeze out a few friend slots.

But the problem is...

Why haven't I heard of many Subgod "Civilization"?

That's strange. I'll have to ask Afros about that next time I run into him.

Just as he was thinking this, a new Change appeared on the rooftop in front of Cheng Shi.

Suddenly, a small door made of thin bones opened in the dark, inky sky. A moment later, a Little Skull bounced and fell out of the door. The Little Skull rolled a few times on the ground before finally turning over and bouncing around, staring intently at its surroundings with empty eye sockets.

This scene left Cheng Shi stunned.

No, you're coming again? Didn't that the Great One just summon me?

Also, why do you seem so clever, little bone servant? Are you even conscious?

Just as Cheng Shi was looking at the skull with suspicion, wondering what message it might be trying to deliver, the Little Skull spoke in a serious tone:

"While standing high allows you to see far, it also means you risk being toppled by strong winds. Cheng Shi, why are you living in such an unstable place?"

"!!!"

Cheng Shi was shocked. He stared in disbelief at the skull before him, speechless.

"Mmm... Old Zhang?"

"You had plastic surgery? Your eyes are so big now!"

"?"

Upon hearing this, the Little Skull immediately stopped jumping around.
