No, sis, you're really accusing them of something too serious. They were just taking advantage of me and even eating and taking things for free. I was genuinely exchanging things with them. Even if I offered less in Chip, at least I still had some credibility... right?

Even the Dragon King praised me, how dare you slander me!

Cheng Shi pursed his lips, feeling that he had to prove himself at this moment. So he pondered for a moment, made a decision, and revealed a huge secret to this Chosen of God of "Destiny".

"The Cosmos will eventually enter [Nothingness], but this script was not written by [Destiny], but by [*He]!"

"!!!"

When the Blind Man heard this "*He", she realized that this title was different from the previous ones. It seemed that it did not refer to the Sixteen Divine Thrones. But apart from this "*He", Cheng Shi's words were shocking enough that she was stunned for a few seconds and completely forgot to ask who "*He" was.

Just then, Cheng Shi thoughtfully uttered the name of [*He].

"[The Origin], [*He] is the [Origin]."

Your theory of Destiny is not wrong, but you are wrong about one thing. These countless scripts may not have been written by our Lord of Grace, but rather He wrote everything and gave Destiny the Divine Authority to 'observe'.

"!!??"

Upon hearing this, the Blind Man could no longer hide the shock on his face and stood there dumbfounded.

But the Blind Man's blank stare didn't last long. Soon her brows furrowed, and then her expression changed Cheng Shi realize what had happened, she coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell backward helplessly like a kite with a broken string.

"Puff--"

"???"

Now it was Cheng Shi's turn to Cheng Shi shocked. His pupils contracted sharply, and he took a step forward to support the Vitality Fire Keeper. But someone was much faster than him. A strong arm covered in scales suddenly appeared in Cheng Shi's field of vision. In the instant he frowned and stopped, the arm wrapped around the Blind Man's waist, caught her, and then slowly placed her on the ground.

Qin Xin arrived. With a stern face, he scanned the Blind Man in front of him from head to toe. After confirming that he was unharmed, he raised his head and looked at Cheng Shi.

However, to Cheng Shi's surprise, the Mirror Walker, who was also Fire Keeper, showed no doubt or blame in his eyes, but only asked with a look of confusion:

"What's wrong with Mingyu?"

What's wrong?

Cheng Shi also wanted to know what was Blind Man, but who knew she...

Etc!

She couldn't be...

"???"

Cheng Shi was stunned. He seemed to have thought of something. He took a step Blind Man, squatted down, and pried open the Blind Man's tightly clenched right hand. In the instant the slender fingers were pried open, Cheng Shi, with a solemn Cheng Shi, discovered in the Blind Man's palm... a pile of white ash.

"What is this?" Qin Xin frowned.

"Her Dice broke..."

Cheng Shi's pupils dilated in shock, his tone extremely complex and wistful. He didn't even know how he could immediately think that this was the "ashes" of a [Destiny] Dice after seeing this pile of ashes, but he felt that it must be.

An Mingyu, you... are you crazy?!

"..."

He was deeply shocked, even somewhat fearful. He had thought that among the players he knew, Hu Xuan was crazy enough, Hu Wei was wild enough, Big Cat was unruly enough, but at this moment, they were nothing compared to this seemingly An Jing and mysterious Chosen of God one of Destiny.

How dare she?

Could this also be a sign from Destiny?

When everyone was filled with fear at the mere mention of His Divine Name, and even Afros dared not utter a word to Him, this "brave"—no, this was no longer bravery, but recklessness, utter madness!

This player, who's lost their mind, actually dared to make a prophecy directly about [the Origin]!?

A prophecy concerning that being who reigns above the Sixteen Divine Thrones!

Cheng Shi felt a chill run down his spine, broke out in a cold sweat, and even felt his legs go weak.

Not everything in this world can be divined, sister!

What are you asking about...? Don't you know?

Well, it seems you won't have the chance to find out either.

Cheng Shi was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe that such an unbelievable scene was unfolding before his eyes. He didn't know what this audacious Prophet had seen that caused the inexplicable backlash to take her life and shatter her Dice!

Yes, Cheng Shi admitted that there was indeed a selfish motive in telling the Blind Man about [*He], but this motive was not sordid, and its starting point was still the same:

Some things are too slow to investigate alone; he must find a few reliable allies to explore together what secrets are hidden in the ultimate Cosmos that the gods avoid talking about.

The Blind Man wasn't originally his target, because he was not only a competitor on the path of "Destiny," but also Zhen Xin's best friend. He didn't trust Zhen Xin, so naturally he couldn't trust An Mingyu either.

But when Cheng Shi learned that the Blind Man was a Fire Keeper, his thoughts suddenly changed.

Since the Fire Keeper are fighting against them, and since the Fire Keeper's protectors also feel fear, then by all accounts, there is almost no conflict between his and the Fire Keeper's positions.

The only discord between the two is that the Fire Keeper is eager to recruit him, while Cheng Shi only wants to remain aloof.

However, being self-sufficient does not preclude cooperation. Therefore, he considered sharing some things with Passing the Flame that only a handful of players currently knew. In this way, under the cover of the God of Merriment, perhaps these warriors who dared to defy the gods would discover more useful information in the upcoming game and exchange it with him, thus allowing him to learn more about [*He].

This was all Cheng Shi had planned. His initial intention was very simple, but he overlooked one thing: that Blind Man are actually quite adept at divination.

There is indeed a Today's Warrior in today's Trials, but this warrior is not myself, but the Blind Man who has already died before me.

He stared blankly at the Blind Man's corpse, pondering whether the backlash from [*He] could be brought back to life through normal means. At this moment, Qin Xin, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke again.

What happened to her?

What happened?

I do know, but right now... I dare not say.

If a "An Jing and gentle" woman dares to consult the divination of "Origin" without even thinking, then you, a fully armed warrior in heavy armor... are you going to put on another heroic feat of taking on "God" one-on-one?

I'm scared, I'm scared of you Fire Keeper.

He shook his head and sighed deeply.

"There was a small problem."

As for how it came about, unless the Blind Man wakes up and is willing to tell you, I'll remain silent for now.

Don't worry, death is never a simple matter; even if she wanted to die, she might not be able to.
