No one notified me in advance. Everyone in the end times is crazy.

Chapter 358 Candidates

"You're such a boring guy. We're all chosen candidates, so there's no need to pretend, right?"

"candidate?"

Jiangnan really didn't know what he was talking about.

"Still pretending? Didn't your artifact tell you?"

"So your artifact can speak?"

Jiang Bei had a foxy smile on his face, and his tail swung left and right in joy because he had gotten the message.

The bell tied to the tail was jingling.

This made Tian Changliu, who was already upset because he said the wrong thing, even more upset.

"Can't you, a fox, be a little quieter?"

"No! Not until you tell me what the chosen candidate means."

"Is the literal meaning difficult to understand?"

"Sorry, the fox is uneducated."

The veins on Tian Changliu's forehead bulged as he suppressed his anger and explained, "The four artifacts will each select four individuals. These individuals are called candidates for divine will. After all four artifacts have recognized their master, they will be transported to a separate dimension to fight. The last person left standing will be able to summon Hercules' final divine will and fulfill any wish."

Jiangnan understood, but that didn't mean Jiangbei did. He deliberately annoyed Tian Changliu and scratched his ears and said, "What are you mumbling about? The fox didn't understand a word."

"One of us must die."

"Why are you in such a hurry when all four of you haven't arrived yet?"

"Don't you understand?"

"Yeah, I just wanted to piss you off. What's the big deal? It's just a matter of seeing who has the faster hands!"

Jiang Bei's composure was as if there was no knife at his neck.

On the other hand, Tian Changliu, without the protection of the masked man, was obviously less imposing than the other.

"As you just said, there's no point in fighting now that we're alone. Why don't I put down the dagger, and you put down the fan, and then we can sit down and have a good chat."

"Hey! Who made the first move?"

"I just want to test whether you are worthy of being the master of the artifact."

"is it?"

"Besides, there's no benefit in killing you now. If you die, the artifact will become ownerless. No one can predict where it will fly to or what it will become. We have to wait until all four artifacts have recognized their masters before we can open the arena. What if yours is the only one missing?"

"It's hard to say. What if you want to kill people and steal treasures? Wouldn't I be stupid?"

"One person can only contract one divine weapon."

"How did you know? Did the artifact tell you?"

Tian Changliu let out a "Tsk!", obviously having been guessed by the other party again.

If it weren't for the fact that the artifacts were good at hiding and were scattered across various planes, it would be extremely difficult to wait until all four candidates arrived. At this time, Tian Changliu would definitely kill the other party.

Suddenly, Tian Changliu exclaimed: "That's not right!"

Jiang Bei tilted his head, his fox ears twitched, and he looked at him with interest.

"It's impossible for one plane to hide two artifacts at the same time. Where are you from? And how did you get here?"

Jiang Bei opened his eyes wide, somewhat surprised.

"I didn't expect this guy to be so smart."

Tian Changliu held the dagger closer and threatened, "Hurry up and tell me!"

Jiang Bei showed no fear on his face. He smiled and said, "When asking others to reveal their cards, shouldn't you first express your sincerity?"

"what?"

Jiang Bei raised his lips and uttered two words: "Divine Artifact."

Tian Changliu chuckled. He now truly felt that Jiang Bei was interesting from the bottom of his heart.

"My artifact is called the Heart of Hercules. Its main function is to enhance physical fitness. Its special feature is that when death is imminent, it can force you to teleport to save your life." (Lie)

"Mine are called Hercules Boots. They increase movement speed and allow me to travel across different planes, but they have a cooldown." (Lie)

The two looked at each other, obviously not believing what the other said.

"Little Fox!"

Hearing the shout, Jiang Bei's fox fur stood up. He instantly retracted his folding fan, slumped down on the tree roots, and pretended to be seriously injured.

Tian Changliu saw that he wanted to blackmail him, and the moment he raised his hand to greet him, the dagger in his hand slid into his sleeve along the wide cuffs.

Then he pretended to be concerned and helped Jiang Bei up, but in fact his fingers were pinching his wound hard.

Jiang Bei took the opportunity to put his arm around Tian Changliu's shoulder and pinched it with the same force.

To outsiders, it looks like a picture of love and affection, but in fact, the two are secretly competing with each other.

"Abei! You were so badly injured, why did you run so far away?" Luo Shiyu said as she ran towards Jiangbei.

Jiang Beichongtian Changliu revealed a smile.

Tian Changliu suddenly felt something was wrong, and with a smile on his face, he was ready to fight back.

Jiang Bei Wubing coughed twice and said weakly, "This gentleman was kind enough to help me with treatment. I didn't think much about it and just followed him."

Tian Changliu didn't understand what he was up to, so he just observed without saying anything.

Luo Shiyu walked quickly to Jiang Bei, took up his drooping hand, and lectured him: "How many times have I told you? Don't talk to strangers! Don't eat things given by strangers! And don't go with strangers! There are bad guys everywhere who can catch foxes. They will eat your flesh and peel your skin. Only I can protect you!"

Jiangnan, who was disguised as Jiangbei, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"These are all my words!"

Last time, no matter how Jiangnan taught Luo Shiyu, she refused to listen, but this time it was completely the opposite.

Perhaps not wanting to embarrass her little fox, Luo Shiyu sighed and said, "This won't happen again. Let's go back."

"and many more."

"what happened?"

"Where's the masked man you fought?"

"He was very strong. I didn't stop him and let him get away."

"Really?" Jiang Bei said, his eyes unconsciously looking at Tian Changliu, and then he showed a meaningful smile.

Leaning on his shoulder, she whispered in his ear, "Do you know what it means that the monk can escape but the temple cannot?"

Tian Changliu's eyelids twitched wildly. He looked at Jiang Bei and asked softly, "What do you want?"

"He hurt me, he should get some compensation, right?"

"He won't make enemies on his own initiative. You must have provoked him."

"Then we should both take a step back and ask him to come out and apologize to me, and then we'll be even."

"What compensation do you want?"

Jiang Bei smiled triumphantly, cleared his throat, and said, "I'm injured and need food. You just need to take care of my three meals a day and deliver them to the inn."

"So simple?" Tian Changliu obviously didn't believe that he would be so easy to talk to. How could someone who could make a contract with a divine artifact be such a pushover?

Jiang Bei seemed to guess what the other person was thinking and smiled with the corners of his lips raised.

"But! I have dietary restrictions. I don't eat spicy food, salty food, sour food, bitter food, or anything that's too sweet. I won't eat anything that has no flavor."

Tian Changliu opened his mouth to speak, but found that Jiang Bei had not finished speaking yet.

"I don't eat birds, I don't eat beasts, I don't eat fish, I don't eat..."

Later on, Jiang Bei simply listed the names of the dishes for him.

Tian Changliu's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Jiang Bei unfolded his fan and fanned it nonchalantly, shrugged nonchalantly, and said, "Whatever."

"Then just go hungry."

"Then I will die in front of you."

"What kind of threat is this?"

"Wouldn't it be interesting if one of the four artifacts was missing?"

Tian Changliu made a "tsk" sound and said, "Just wait." Then he turned and left.

Luo Shiyu, who was watching from the sidelines, tugged at Jiang Bei's hand and said, "We didn't tell him which inn we were staying at."

"No, he can find it."
