Fantasy Simulator Chapter 199 – Secret

Chen Heng could clearly sense that there was something special about this young man.

Even though this young man had taken a name that was clearly fake, Jacdo, he did not seem like an ordinary person.

After walking with that person and chatting for a while, Chen Heng clearly sensed how he was different.

Compared to other people of this world, Jacdo had immense knowledge. No matter what Chen Heng changed the topic to, he would be able to easily keep up with him and give his own unique views.

In fact, there were many things that caused Chen Heng to feel as if his eyes had been opened. no ordinary person could do such a thing.

After all, even though Chen Heng looked quite young, by now, he was actually an old monster.

He had experienced many worlds and many centuries. In terms of his experiences, no one in this world could compare to him.

However, this young man was an exception.

Chen Heng could feel a familiar feeling from this person.

“Dense faith energy…” Chen Heng thought to himself as he conversed with Jacdo.

Even though it was quite weak, he could feel an aura that seemed to be at odds with the heavens. It was definitely negative faith energy.

This person had immense negative faith energy, and it was many times stronger than the faith energy in Chen Heng's body.

Just who was he?

Following this, Chen Heng's body suddenly froze as he thought to himself.

In order to confirm his suspicions, Chen Heng raised his head and looked ahead.

The Fortune Mark was instantly activated and Chen Heng's vision changed.

Faint golden Fortune appeared, circling around the young man's body. There were many layers, looking like spreading clouds, and they were incredibly bright.

Chen Heng saw all of this clearly.

As expected.

Seeing this scene, Chen Heng inwardly frowned.

To possess so much negative faith energy that even Chen Heng felt fearful, and to be able to hide it so well—if this wasn't the demon king, who else could he be?

As one of the main characters of this world, the demon king bore all of the negative faith energy of this world. Every action of his could cause massive storms in this world.

Even Ali could not compare to him right now. His faith energy was much less dense, and he still had much to grow.

Why had such a terrifying figure come here?

Chen Heng inwardly frowned as he thought to himself.

In his original plan, he did not plan on interacting with this demon king.

This person represented this world's negative faith energy and was simply too dangerous.

Even though everything looked quite normal right now, this was still one of the strongest beings in this world, the demon king.

It was simply too dangerous to meet with him; if Chen Heng was not careful, he would not even know how he died.

Chen Heng was willing to meet with the hero who represented positive faith energy, but he absolutely did not want to interact with the demon king who represented negative faith energy.

However, it seemed that he did not have the choice.

Even though he had not gone to seek out the demon king, the demon king had come to seek him out.

Chen Heng inwardly sighed and felt quite uncomfortable.

The moment Chen Heng looked at him with the Fortune Mark, Jacdo seemed to sense something.

“Has he already sensed it?”

Looking at Chen Heng and sensing the changes in Chen Heng's emotions, he inwardly laughed.

What Chen Heng did not know was that as the demon king, Jacdo had acute awareness of people's emotions, especially negative emotions.

The moment that Chen Heng realized Jacdo's identity, his emotions had become wary and apprehensive, and Jacdo had sensed this.

Naturally, he understood something and smiled at Chen Heng.

“How interesting.”

“What?” Chen Heng asked as he led the way.

“Your strength is very strong,” Jacdo said, “In the past, I've seen many people in similar positions.

“However, those people were just ordinary people, and not many of them could achieve what you have in such a short period of time.”

Chen Heng frowned and began to feel wary, “What do you mean?”

Looking at Chen Heng, Jacdo lightly spoke, “Of the outsiders, some people realized that faith energy was the key to leaving. However, those people were restricted by either their strength, personality, or talent, and there were very few who could actually gather faith energy and have the right to challenge the trial…”

After those words sounded out, the scene became quiet.

Chen Heng's expression slightly changed.

Chen Heng had wanted to pretend that he did not know anything, but it was evident that the demon king had realized this and had no intention of keeping up the act with him.

He had laid everything bare.

Chen Heng's expression slightly changed and he looked to the side.

As they walked, the guards by the side were still there.

However, their expressions were gone, making their faces look quite cold, as if they had lost all reaction.

Some strange power had affected them, making it so that they lost their senses of the world.

Evidently, this had been done by Jacdo.

Seeing this, Chen Heng came back to his senses and asked, “What do you mean by challenging the trial?”

“Since you already know about gathering faith energy, surely you have some guesses about this?” Jacdo laughed casually as he waved his hand, “In actuality, it is the trial of the hero. There is only one demon king in this world, but the hero is not determined; he is chosen from a competition.

“If an outsider like you wants to leave this world, you need to become the hero and obtain the hero's legacy. Then, only by defeating the demon king will you be able to leave this world.”

“Only by becoming the hero and defeating the demon king will I be able to leave this world?” Chen Heng felt quite startled and his expression slightly changed.

He had guessed the contents of this world's trial before, and he had considered what Jacdo had just said.

He had never thought that this would actually be the case.

“If you want to become the hero, you first need enough faith energy,” Jacdo said as he walked, “Having enough faith energy is both a key, as well as proof.

“You might not know, but not every person has the qualifications to receive faith energy; it's not just a simple energy.”

Jacdo looked at Chen Heng as he spoke softly, “If one's talent is not strong enough, then they will not be able to bear faith energy.

“Without faith energy, one will not have the right to participate in the trial or leave.

“The outsiders before you all failed at this step.”

Hearing this, Chen Heng frowned and felt quite surprised.

He had never thought that the people before him had not even been able to even gather faith energy.

“People always take what they have for granted.”

Looking at Chen Heng and sensing his emotions, the demon king shook his head, “For you, you never felt that having faith energy was difficult or special, so you thought that was the same for others?

“In actuality, you are the outsider with the most faith energy that I've ever seen.”

Speaking to there, the demon king's expression became a bit surprised, as if he did not expect this at all.

Was it that difficult?

Chen Heng opened his mouth and wanted to ask this, but after thinking about it, he stopped himself.

In the end, this was the demon king, and he had no reason to lie to him about something small like this.

After all, there was nothing to be gained from lying about this.

However, the demon king had revealed much in this short period of time.

According to what the demon king had said, faith energy was not something that everyone could bear.

In actuality, Chen Heng already knew this.

Faith energy could be gained from almost every person in the world, but those who could actually receive it were very few in number.

As for Chen Heng, he had sensed this power as soon as he had come to this world.

Chen Heng had thought that this was because he was an outsider.

It seemed that this had not been entirely accurate.

It had not been because he was special as an outsider but because Chen Heng himself was special.

It was not his experiences of many worlds; just the simulator he had was enough to show how special he was.

According to Jacdo, bearing faith energy alone was a big test, and only those with talent could endure it.

Chen Heng had not noticed this at all; perhaps it was because his body was special.

Many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind in the blink of an eye, and his footsteps began to slow.

Seeing Chen Heng fall into his thoughts, Jacdo only smiled and did not interrupt him.

Honestly speaking, he had only come out to play and have a look at how this generation's hero candidates were.

He had never thought that he would find a surprise like this.

The amount of faith energy that Chen Heng had surprised him.

In the past, Jacdo had never seen an outsider gather so much faith energy before.

Even though some people had powerful talents and could gather some faith energy, the amount they could endure was not very great.

Chen Heng had been able to contain and withstand so much faith energy?

This was quite amazing.

This was why Jacdo had changed his mind and decided to chat with Chen Heng.

“So what happened to my predecessors?” Chen Heng asked as he looked at Jacdo.

“What do you think?” Jacdo laughed, “Everything in this little world exists for a special legacy.

“If someone can obtain the legacy, then this world's demon disaster will end and everything will return to normal. The world would not absorb outsiders to go through the trials either.

“The fact that the trial is still going and you are still here is evidence of that.”

“Is that so?”

Hearing this, Chen Heng nodded, “I understand.”

“The outsiders before you all died in this world, either from the demon disaster or from old age,” Jacdo said casually, “Some people guessed some things and decided to follow the hero to fight me. However, they were all easily killed by me…”

Hearing those words, Chen Heng's mouth twitched.

If Jacdo had not come and told him these things, he most likely would have followed behind Ali to find the demon king.

When that time came, the situation would have been quite awkward.

However, what Jacdo was saying was not necessarily true.

After all, he was the demon king and was someone who represented all negative faith energy.

Whoever completely trusted such a person would be a fool.

It was just that Chen Heng did not find anything suspicious about anything Jacdo was saying.

“No need to think too much.”

Looking at Chen Heng, the demon king seemed to know what he was thinking and shook his head, “I won't do anything to you. In actuality, my goal is the same as yours, to leave this place.”

“You can leave?” Chen Heng asked as he frowned.

If this demon king left and headed to somewhere else, the consequences could be grave.

“I can leave, just like all of you,” Jacdo said as he looked at Chen Heng, “In actuality, any person in this world can leave, as long as they fulfil the conditions. After the trial, this world's legacy will have a new owner. Following this, this world will return to normal.

“Including myself, everyone will be released..”

“So it's like that,” Chen Heng stopped frowning and nodded.

Only when the legacy had an owner would the world's restrictions disappear; this was quite normal.

He just wondered if this would actually be the case.

Looking at Chen Heng, Jacdo opened his mouth, about to say something, but he then froze.

Clear footsteps could be heard from not too far away.

Chen Heng and Jacdo turned, and they saw a young man walking over from a distance.

Ali appeared there dressed in leather armor. His face was just as bright as usual and he gave off a unique aura.

After seeing Chen Heng, he smiled and ran forwards as he waved his hand.

“Mister Ed.”

He waved his hand as he walked over to Chen Heng, smiling as he said, “So it was you. I seemed to see you outside the tavern, so I came to have a look.”

Hearing his voice, Chen Heng instinctively looked around.

The guards had returned to normal and regained their consciousness.

Everything looked fine.

It seemed that Jacdo was somewhat wary of Ali. He did not reveal his demon king power and hid it.

“Ali, why are you here?”

A warm smile appeared on Chen Heng's face as he softly asked, “You just got back; don't you need to rest?”

“I'm fine,” Ali smiled, “It was just some low-level demons; it was not a big deal. Who is this?”

He turned and looked at Jacdo.

He finally asked.

Hearing Ali's question, Chen Heng inwardly sighed.

From the start, as Ali talked to Chen Heng, his gaze would float over to Jacdo, but he thought that he had hidden it.

However, to Chen Heng, it had been incredibly obvious.

“This is Mister Jacdo. He is a mercenary from outside, just like you.”

Chen Heng's expression did not change as he said, “Mister Jacdo is a warrior from afar and came here because he heard that we needed people to help with taking down demon beasts.”

“Is that so?” Ali smiled and looked at Jacdo seriously, “I'll be in your care then. Our team indeed needs more strength.”

He seemed to sense something as he spoke.

Chen Heng could not help but look over.

It seemed that just like him, Ali had sensed something special about Jacdo.
