The "Cencha" of the Future, Xilolin

Cheng Shi quickly brought the person back, but this time he ultimately resorted to violence.

Qin Xin and the Blind Man heard a muffled thunderclap from afar. Soon after, a skeleton carrying Cheng Shi and another trembling contact from the shantytown swiftly arrived in front of them.

Seeing this, the Blind Man was both amused and exasperated, while Qin Xin looked on in astonishment. He then turned to Cheng Shi with interest and asked with a smile:

"You want to merge with [death]?"

"?" Cheng Shi blinked and jumped off the Shrieking Servant. "Why are you always so concerned about this? Does controlling skeletons necessarily require merging with Faith? I'm heterosexual, can't I just like skeletons?"

"... It's not impossible." Qin Xin's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled and said nothing more.

Cheng Shi wasted no time. With the two witnesses, he revived the one-armed Xilolin and then built a friendly confrontation platform for the three parties in front of him.

Xilolin, Morabik, Allen Doyle, and the shackling henchman from the shack area sat face to face, looking completely bewildered.

But what no one expected was that when Xilolin woke up from her death and opened her eyes, the first person to speak was not the shrewd Brotherhood of Extreme Desire, but the terrified and helpless shackling boy.

"Lady Xilolin! Help!"

The burly man screamed and lunged at Xilolin, who was still unaware of what was happening. But as soon as he jumped up, Qin Xin raised his hand and pressed him back down. With just a slight effort, the Mirror Walker, who was no shorter than him, was covered in cold sweat and unable to move.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow.

With exaggerated strength and speed, the Mirror Walker seems to be intentionally or unintentionally displaying their power.

Was he intimidating those two "Folly" Wise One?

But is this even meaningful? The opponent doesn't seem to be able to fight.

At this moment, Xilolin also awoke from her Chaos state. Seeing so many people surrounding her, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes, but her strong mental fortitude quickly calmed her down. She looked at Cheng Shi with a slight lingering fear and said:

"I... I'm alive again?"

"You've been alive all along, Xilolin. That was just a simple trick; we played a little joke on you," Cheng Shi said with a smile.

"A joke? I hope so." Xilolin gave a self-deprecating laugh, glancing at her underlings and then at the two bewildered Wise One beside her. She frowned, as if remembering something, and suddenly realized, "So, you've come for Divinity? You've got your eyes on Mr. Morabik's Experiment?"

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in the eyes of all three players, but Morabik, the person in question, was truly stunned. He frowned and pondered for a moment, then shook his head with utmost seriousness, saying:

"This... Lady Xilolin, although we have heard of your name and do wish to make contact with you, I must emphasize that we have only just set foot in the shack district and have not yet had a chance to look for you. How did you know my name?"

"?" Xilolin frowned and said unhappily, "We negotiated the terms of the deal for three days. I only agreed to the deal after you showed me that thing. How could you forget?"

"No, you don't seem to have forgotten. Has your Memory been tampered with?"

Xilolin was shocked. She looked at Cheng Shi and thought that the only person who could have done this to these people was the Fate Weaver who had killed her.

Cheng Shi shrugged, indicating that he hadn't done anything, and then asked with a smile, "What were these two 'Folly' Believer showing you?"

Xilolin frowned, somewhat confused. She exchanged another uncertain glance with Morabik, then muttered to herself in deep bewilderment:

"What exactly is 'Folly'?"

"?"

These words displeased the two Wise One, and they straightened their faces, intending to correct him. However, Cheng Shi raised a hand to stop them and, with great curiosity, asked Xilolin again:

"You don't know the name 'Folly'?"

Why... why should I know?

"It sounds like the name of Wild God. Besides, they never mentioned anything about 'Folly' when they spoke to me. I've always assumed they were followers of Wild God, and now it sounds, well, even more like it."

"..."

Cheng Shi's expression instantly became incredibly interesting.

Sister, you're really daring! You can look down on the God of Idiot with Folly serious expression instead of his Believer. You're the first person I've ever seen do that.

As expected of the Brotherhood of Extreme Desire, they really go wild when they indulge their desires.

However, it's still a bit strange. Even the underlings in the shantytown know the Divine Name "Folly," so why wouldn't a person in power know it?

Even if it's just about gathering intelligence, shouldn't they have heard about it before?

Cheng Shi looked at the surviving henchman with a questioning gaze. Sensing Cheng Shi's gaze, the henchman immediately and tactfully replied, "We—no, I heard about it from outside—it does sound like some kind of Wild God..."

After saying that, the man glanced at Xilolin as if to show his loyalty.

Wow, that's tough!

Cheng Shi smiled. He didn't dwell on these minor incidents. Instead, he had Xilolin recall her negotiations with Morabik and had the two Wise One recount their movements that day.

Both sides' recollections were relatively clear, and there were no lies regarding their own parts. However, when it came to the negotiation part, each side gave their own version of events.

Xilolin was certain she had met them, while the Wise One men insisted they had never entered the shack. Adding to this, the contact's henchman recounted that he had received orders in a daze and had never seen the two men at all... This standoff made things clear to the players present.

Xilolin's perception seems to be distorted.

However, to be on the safe side, the three decided to play it safe and asked Qin Xin to find all the witnesses she mentioned and seek their testimonies. But every single one of these so-called negotiation witnesses said that they had not participated in any negotiations.

Now, Cheng Shi and the other two are almost certain that Xilolin is one of the anomalies in this Trials, and is very likely the future "Cencha," because what she knows is obviously a future that has not yet happened.

Morabik and Allen Doyle had only just arrived at the shack and hadn't even made contact with her yet, but she had already given orders for her underlings to make contact three days earlier. If this wasn't the "future," then it was hard to imagine what kind of "Cencha" could be considered the future.

Thus, the clues that led them to Aromani's identity ultimately pointed to Xilolin, the leader of the Brotherhood of Extreme Desire.

This shrewd [Filth and Decay] Believer, unaware of his own existence, crossed [time] and arrived here from another dimension, becoming the first key for the players to solve the puzzle.
