Chapter 41: I Can't Bear This Burden

"It's a bit difficult, but thanks to my talent, this mission was successfully completed!" Jiang Bai smiled very proudly, it was all up to him to deal with the Phaseless Rock!

"Oh? Mastered elemental resonance? ”

"Not really, but I've got the Rock Shield."

Jiang Bai was like a child showing off his achievements to his teacher, proudly showing off his rock shield, looking at Zhongli expectantly, and almost writing the words 'praise me' on his face.

"Yes, your elemental perception is quite high." Zhongli did not skimp on his praise.

Jiang Bai's talent is indeed quite high.

He only guided him to contact the elemental power, and in just a few days, he had completely mastered the use of the elemental power, and even condensed the rock shield.

For those who possess Vision, their use of the elements will only be manipulated as they want.

But Jiang Bai's manipulation of the elements is varied, he has no restrictions on fixed thinking, and there is no ceiling.

What restricts him is only the amount of the elements that he can manipulate.

This amount of manipulation will also expand as he conforms to the elements, from ponds to lakes, from lakes to vast rivers, and from rivers to endless seas.

"The attack of the Phaseless Rock is too powerful, and mastering the rock shield is also a way to do it in a hurry......"

Jiang Bai waved his hand and made a contrived gesture that he didn't want to master, but was forced to master.

If a person with average talent saw his Versailles appearance, he would definitely want to beat someone.

In response, Zhongli just raised his lips and smiled, "Oh? Let's talk about it. ”

"At that time, the waves of the Phaseless Rock swept like a landslide and tsunami, and there was no place to settle on the ground, just when the hall master was about to be hit by the shock, because my desire to protect the hall master was too strong, so I mastered the rock shield and took the hall master to safely withdraw from the attack range of the phaseless rock......"

"Then I asked the hall master to retreat, I smashed one by one, and rushed to the Phaseless Rock against the shock, the arrogant Phaseless Rock I suddenly shattered into two halves under this hammer, and I withdrew, hiding my merit and fame ......"

Zhongli listened to Jiang Bai's braggadocio with relish.

Not to mention, Jiang Bai is quite suitable for storytelling, like those storytellers, he said that what he didn't have was, and some of them added oil and vinegar to it, and exaggerated it.

If he hadn't had a good memory, maybe he would have thought that the stories in the mouths of those storytellers were really made by him.

Seeing that Zhongli listened with relish, Jiang Bai made persistent efforts and began to narrate his extraordinary opinions.

"I also discovered a shocking secret on the Lonely Cloud Pavilion!"

"Oh? What secret? "Zhongli has a lot of face.

Jiang Baishen came over mysteriously, lowered his voice, and made it look like he couldn't be heard when he told the secret.

"I don't know if you noticed that the ruin guard has a special pattern decoration on his body, which looks like this......"

Jiang Bai poured some wine on the table, dipped his fingers in the wine and drew on the table, drawing the shape he saw.

"Oh? What's wrong with this pattern? Zhongli continued to drink quietly.

"This pattern is not only on the ruin guards, but also on the robes of the abyss mages, and the ruins of the Lone Cloud Pavilion are all covered with such patterns! Therefore, I have a bold conjecture! ”

Zhongli raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Jiang Bai's gaze with some inquiry.

Could it be that he discovered the origin of these things?

"Since these things are all in the Lonely Cloud Pavilion, it means that they have a deep relationship with the Lonely Cloud Pavilion, maybe those things were made by the people of the Demon God who was suppressed in the Lonely Cloud Pavilion!"

Jiang Bai said it categorically, and swore by it.

There are not many people like him who have the ability to observe and find out the trick the first time he sets foot there, and to deduce important things from the information he has.

Zhongli: "......"

Zhongli paused as he drank and was a little dumbfounded for a while.

Facing Jiang Bai's expectant gaze, he took back the hand that held the wine glass to the corner of his lips.

"Your speculation is plausible."

Seeing that Zhongli agreed with his reasoning, Jiang Bai seemed to be encouraged, poured a glass of wine to moisten his throat, and continued to speculate:

"I guess the reason why those people created such a thing as a ruin guard must be trying to help their gods break the seal, but it's a pity that the seal of the rock god is too powerful, and they didn't do it in their lives, and then as people passed away from generation to generation, it was also called a ruin, and only the ruin guards guarded ......"

Zhongli had to say that Jiang Bai's speculation was really reasonable, and he had speculated so many things just through a little information.

It's a pity that the information is incomplete, which leads to a 108,000-mile gap between the speculation and the truth.

If he hadn't been the party back then, he would have believed it.

"What is the explanation of the Abyss Mage?" Zhongli filled him with wine, wanting to hear what else he could say.

"Abyss Mage, as the name suggests, the focus is on the word 'Abyss'! I don't know what the abyss is, but judging by the term, it's certainly not a good thing. ”

The more Jiang Bai spoke, the more he rose, as if he already knew some earth-shattering secret.

"Maybe the last people of the demon god saw no hope of saving their gods, and finally fell into the abyss and became abyssal mages, wanting to bring disaster to the people of the rock god who suppressed their gods!"

Zhongli: "......"

"What do I guess?"

"Makes sense."

Although the direction is a little off, it has to be said that Jiang Bai's speculation is largely close to reality.

Zhongli wanted to applaud and admire, so he did.

"Awesome! You can speculate so much with just such a few clues, make bold assumptions, make reasonable assumptions, and you are very good. ”

Rao is cheeky as Jiang Bai, and he was also a little embarrassed by Zhongli's words.

"Not anymore...... It's just a casual reasoning...... The truth doesn't have to be as ...... as I say"

"Huh." Zhongli smiled lightly and drank the wine in his glass.

"There are many stories in this land, many of which have long been submerged in the dust of history and covered in rock. You have this insight and may be able to dig them out in the future......"

Jiang Bai listened to this quietly, and somehow, he always felt that Zhongli had another purpose in saying this.

Could it be that the rock god has done a lot of bad things, and he wants to bring these bad things to the light of day, and then shake the faith of the rock god?

Don't, he's just a weak, humble and pitiful worker in the Afterlife, and he hasn't worked for a day until now......

He can't bear the heavy responsibility of subverting theocracy!

And it's clear that Hu Tao is very obedient to this rock god, judging from the various stories that have been circulated, such a rock god is obviously a very good god.

Why does this Mr. Zhongli always want to subvert the theocracy?
