Chapter 803: Chapter 500 Symphony of Destiny
Just after Floey completely absorbed and digested the soul of the headless worm monster, a series of strange events occurred in Bixie Crost, the Royal City.
Posters on the streets regarding the latest policies, flyers of decrees, headlines in various newspapers, and even so residents’ personal diaries all mysteriously appeared with blank spaces.
No one knew why, and nobody was clear on what those blanks originally contained. Most people thought it was just a coincidence or so kind of oversight.
Although it sparked a bit of discussion, it was soon forgotten.
In a bar in the Lower District.
An unkempt, red-nosed patron suddenly started talking about a significant event that happened a couple of days ago in Fire Pattern Plaza in the Central District of the Royal City.
At first, it was quite normal, he described the scene of the crowded, noisy crowd vividly. Even the patrons at nearby tables teased him, a laborer from the Lower District, questioning how he had the qualification to pass the inspection to enter the Central District for a gathering event.
But when it ca to explaining what the event was actually about, the red-nosed patron stamred, and it was like he just blanked out, unable to explain the situation at all.
This imdiately led to more ridicule from the crowd.
“So what was that gathering about, Waden?”
Soone took a drag from a cigarette and asked loudly.
“Ah… it seed like the Royal Family was going to execute soone.”
“Who would be so important? Haha, it wouldn’t be the little thief who stole bread at ‘Ma Yi Auntie’s Bakery’ on Celebration Day, right?”
“Of course not! But I can’t quite rember exactly who it was…”
“Hahaha…”
The crowd laughed.
Suddenly, soone was stunned, feeling puzzled.
“Celebration Day? Was that the Princess’s birthday?”
“Yes, I even sang with Doxi’s family with lanterns.”
“But wasn’t the Princess’s birthday in December?”
“Ah… sorry, I must have rembered wrong. Anyway, March 9th was a big day, the Royal Family even sent people to decorate everywhere, who cares why!”
Besides the Lower District, similar things were happening in the Upper City District, the Central District, and various other areas and classes… Certain mories were quietly disappearing. No one rembered that the Royal Family had a Prince nad Dazlert, and no one rembered anything about him.
Even…
The players’ ga forum.
“—Hey? Where the hell is my post?! How could my huge post just disappear?!”
“—What post, is it the photo set of the Constellation Sect, dear brother, let have a look.”
“—No, get lost, it was an analysis post about the Western War, and the ‘ordinary operator’ replied to it with a long comnt. I still rember he said sothing about it involving a conspiracy of a Crown Prince in the Royal Family…”
“—What Crown Prince, the Sun Royal Family only has a Princess, are you just making things up?”
Besides this, a substantial number of posts in the ga forum had inexplicably disappeared, as if silently deleted by so hidden administrator.
Even the previously pinned post “Era of Mystery 2.0 Version CGI: Dark Revival” had vanished.
This caused imnse dissatisfaction among the players.
However, the ga official quickly issued an ergency notice, explaining that the forum administrators never maliciously deleted posts, and it was due to an unknown error in the backend data, which resulted in the destruction of so posts.
But the players were not foolish, as they had already noticed that those missing posts were all related to the Royal Family, more precisely, to soone from the Royal Family, but now it was unclear who exactly.
So clever players suggested that it was likely a person who got incredibly lucky and discovered a bug in the Royal Family, benefiting massively from it, causing the officials to urgently delete posts and fix the bug.
As for the claim that “the ga is controlled by a supercomputer, absolutely fair and reasonable,” the players did not believe it much. So even subtly suggested that the officials ought to compensate them sohow; otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense.
However, after issuing the notice, the official gave no further response.
What the players did not know was that in the real world, in the capital of the Azure Federation, Kakamara of Franye City, scientists at the Era of Mystery developnt center were in an uproar.
All were top researchers in the Federation, but none could explain the motivation and chanism behind the supercomputer suddenly altering data, and deleting information, even making all the players involved in the ga lose a part of their mory!
“Report this matter to the Federation’s Ether Division and the Chief Priests of the Azure Holy Church. The supercomputer’s autonomous evolution speed has accelerated too rapidly after receiving that information disk… We need more experintal data.”
The man in the white coat leading the group said in a deep voice.
His chanical eye on the left glead eerie blue light, staring at the huge object placed in the center of the laboratory — a supercomputer composed of countless circuit boards and modules, and the slot on the console, where the black information disk was inserted.
“The great undertaking of the Holy Church cannot cease, it will be our key to salvation and lead us to the Divine Kingdom at the end tis…”

A few days later.
A week had passed since the appointnt with Miss Fleurette.
Chen Lun walked out of The Great Gate of the teor Tower, turned around, politely took off his black hat, thanking Miss Fleurette and bidding farewell.
“Thank you for your guidance and teachings these past few days, I feel I’ve greatly benefited.”
“You’re welco, Jack.”
Miss Fleurette smoked a roll-up cigarette, waving her hand.
