The Episode in Which Truth's Reputation Hit Rock Bottom

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Allen Doyle with curiosity, but Allen Doyle fell silent again, and it was Morabik had been silent just moments before, who spoke up in response.

"Lunzuoer is my father, Scholar. The portrait you see may have the wrong name on it."

Wang Mou was taken aback and continued to shake his head, saying:

"It can't be wrong!"

In my search for clues, I forced the Scholar of the Tower of Reason to draw their likenesses for me, and to prevent any errors, I consulted several Scholar from different eras...

"Hey, hey, hey, it's not important, it's not important!" Cheng Shi panicked. He wanted to warm up the atmosphere, not make it awkward. How did things start to go wrong as they were talking?

The Grand Scholar resembles Morabik is the father of Allen Doyle, and the Scholar with the same facial features as Allen Doyle is the father of Morabik...

No, are you guys trying to pass on your genes across families?

If that's the case, can we really think carefully about who is whose father?

I thought you Tower of Reason were obsessed with research and detached from worldly affairs, but looking at you now, wow, you're just as good as the Door of Falling!

Cheng Shi was stunned. He immediately interrupted Wang Mou, suppressing his urge to watch the drama unfold, and gestured to the crowd, saying:

"Let bygones be bygones. Memory are meaningless. We should enjoy the present."

Quickly, let's begin the Experiment! The moment to witness a miracle is just around the corner. Once this Experiment is completed, I personally admit that [Folly] has temporarily won a round against [Truth].

As for you, Doctor, if you wish to continue observing, please shut your mouth that's so close to "Truth." This is the stage for "Folly."

"..."

There were no fools present. The only two NPCs who weren't players were the exceptionally wise "Folly" Believer. Everyone knew the essence of the discussion they had just had, but everyone fell silent because of the conclusion they had reached.

Morabik and Allen Doyle began to focus on preparing for the Experiment, while the five players pondered the attitude of the two Wise One in response. They didn't seem to think it was something that couldn't be said, and even emphasized their blood relationship. So, in the Tower of Reason, was this something that was not difficult to talk about?

The players' eyes widened as they looked at the two Wise One with amused smiles, then glanced meaningfully at the only Believer "Truth" in the arena. Even the An Jing Blind Man couldn't suppress the smile on his lips and began to twitch his shoulders.

This is definitely the worst episode of "Truth" ever!

The Experiment began. Morabik replicated the previous operation, dutifully serving as the Experiment support. Allen Doyle carefully manipulated the fingers of the legendary Grand Scholar. Wang Mou stood closest, observing the scene intently and meticulously noting down all the operational details of the two Wise One.

However, the extraction of Divinity takes too long. As Allen Doyle once said, it would take at least a whole night to extract the Divinity from this head-sized Abyssal Crystal.

The players felt there was no need to waste the whole night here, so after staying up together for two hours, they came up with a new shift plan.

Wang Mou will definitely not leave; he wants to observe the entire Experiment. Among the other four, the Investigator made a suggestion: only one person needs to keep an eye on the Doctor. The combination of two people can basically ensure that no accidents will occur during the Experiment due to the player's selfishness.

However, Cheng Shi had a backup plan. He suggested that it would be best for three people to go together. This way, no matter how the remaining four people were combined, there would always be someone from their own camp on-site to keep an eye on things. This was the safest approach.

The two Fire Keeper naturally had no objections and took the initiative to lead the first round of "monitoring," so that Cheng Shi and Li Wufang were free, could take a break and then come back to relieve them a few hours later.

Cheng Shi was very satisfied because he also wanted to take some time to test the Investigator who had inexplicably shown him goodwill and ask him what had happened in the mine that had caused such Change in them.

However, in order to dispel the suspicions of others and to make his approach less abrupt, Cheng Shi smiled and invited Li Wufang to meet Arad, the target of Xilolin's commission.

He wanted to use the Investigator to get rid of this acting Proxy Hand.

Li Wufang readily agreed, and so the two players, with fake smiles on their faces, left the mine outpost warehouse, which had been designated as Experiment Field, one after the other, and headed towards the hut where Arad was imprisoned.

It was already night. Although the sky in the far distance had visibly darkened, the entire Door of Falling, illuminated by the lava waterfall hanging upside down from the Abyssal Volcano, was not as bright as day, but it was certainly "brightly lit by the mountain fire."

The Fate Weaver and the Investigator walked one after the other, neither speaking first nor making any unnecessary movements.

Cheng Shi frowned slightly, constantly sensing Li Wufang behind him, but the Investigator didn't react at all. He seemed to be simply following the invitation, smiling as he followed behind Cheng Shi. He was extremely relaxed in both expression and posture, and didn't even have the intention to walk quickly forward to walk alongside Cheng Shi, nor did he have any desire to speak.

The eerie atmosphere deepened Cheng Shi's suspicions. Having walked some distance from the Experiment warehouse, and with the place where Arad was imprisoned now in sight, Cheng Shi felt it would be somewhat contrived to remain silent until later. So, he paused, turned back, and asked with a smile:

"You..."

But before he could utter a single word, the quiet night in the mine was broken by the sound of rustling footsteps.

Cheng Shi and Li Wufang exchanged a surprised glance, their expressions suddenly turning serious. They instantly turned to look at the back wall of the house where Arad was being held, and the sound of footsteps rolling over the soil was coming from behind that wall!

Someone's there!

Judging from the voice, it didn't seem like a cautious person, but the other party somehow managed to bypass the Shrieking Servant's vigilance and circle around from the back of the mine.

Cheng Shi frowned slightly and looked at "Gongyang Jiao," who was still standing guard at the gate of the stronghold. "Gongyang Jiao" sensed its master's call and immediately flew around to the back of the house.

Seeing this, Li Wufang clicked his tongue and said, "Things related to [death] are really useful, huh?"

"?"

Are we that close?

Dude, aren't you being a little too familiar?

Cheng Shi inwardly scoffed, but smiled calmly, pointed to the source of the sound, and laughed, "What, you expect a Priest to pave the way for you?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wufang's expression froze instantly, the smile in his eyes turning serious. Without saying a word, he followed the Shrieking Servant's footsteps with a "whoosh" and rushed towards the intruder's location. Seeing the other party's strange reaction, Cheng Shi's slightly furrowed brows tightened even more.

Why is this Investigator so easy to talk to?
