Alpha resurrected and returned to the altar, his mind in a fog.
After years of planning, fate plays a malicious joke again!
Beta’s urging was still coming through the network: "What’s going on?"
Alpha forced himself to rally: "Sothing unexpected happened... It was 99.9% successful!"
Beta fell silent for a mont: "We still have the Bronze City Divine Tomb!"
Alpha: "Yes, but we can’t rush it. The Ten Lords Association is fully defending Bronze City, so let them waste their energy on defense while we return to Shadow Demon City to train."
"But this Crow Master must be taken down!"
"Leave this task to Tata War God. He’s in Gem City, just in ti to complete his task of investigating the Crow group."
So Tata War God, waiting for news in the sewers of Gem City, received the ssage.
Tata War God found it incredible: "99.9% successful?"
"Yes, it successfully flew out of Oak City but was intercepted by Crow Master. However, we have no evidence to present to the NPC, so you need to gather all evidence against Crow Master..."
Tata War God was taken aback: "What about my investnt in the Ancient Giant Python Soul?"
"It forms the cornerstone of that 99.9%! Anyway, you’ve already gained the favor of the Fishman God, keep finding opportunities from it to obtain the Ancient Soul."
Tata War God felt rather helpless: "Understood..."
...
The alarm clock rang, Chun slept until 7 AM.
He checked the screen; it was nightti in the ga, and the Bone Dragon had flown over the sea near Black Iron City, not far from Plague Island.
Chun felt quite relieved, this Nabchuanxi was indeed reliable.
He then went to the bathroom to wash up while watching a phone live stream, checking out the Evil God siege dynamics.
And he saw again the scene of himself resurrecting in the Oak City square and being taken away by the police go viral.
Then there was no more Evil God activity, having ceased two hours ago. Oak City also restored the Teleportation Array, and the NPC supporting Gem City returned ho. The rmaid also arrived at the Oak City pier just now and was imdiately picked up by a car from the Oak City Church.
In short, ordinary players can see very little; there’s even less content in Alternate Space.
Chun suddenly rembered sothing; it was 6 o’clock for dinner! According to routine, Aileen would be "online" to have dinner, so whoever served dinner should be the returning Nabchuanxi?
But I’m in an out-of-body state, if Nabchuanxi sees my real body moving, it’ll be trouble, right? It would expose that soone else is controlling my body! Such secrets cannot be revealed to the Beelzebub organization!
Chun urgently interrupted and dashed out of the bathroom to log in and greet: "I’m here!"
Nabchuanxi said with a smile: "Check the map, I chose the most secluded Arctic route, avoiding all the possibilities of being spotted. We’re almost there now."
Chun asked the main point: "Has the support from Gem City ended?"
Nabchuanxi said: "It’s ended; went back, took a bath, saved so treasures, did the usual checks on you. You were sleeping soundly, unable to eat, so I went to rest and sleep."
Holy shit! Aileen really didn’t log in, she’s truly smart! Maybe it’s due to extre distrust of Nabchuanxi. Anyway, very good!
Chun felt much more comfortable, the interrupted act resud smoothly: "Alright, I still have sothing to do, you continue your work."
After everything was arranged, the brother knocked on the door at the right mont: "Brother Chun, breakfast! Crab roe pancake!"
Chun laughed: "Okay, haven’t had buns for days."
The brother laughed: "So the taste needs to be switched up."
Chun asked: "What’s up with Great God and the others?"
The brother laughed: "Already nearing Iron Fla Village, it’s quite the scene, at least one hundred thousand players digging the canal. The worksite’s torches stretch for kiloters. But Baka and Curry have set up a net on the periphery and stuck barriers to intercept Great God and the others, not letting them enter the village. Anyway, it’s nightti in the ga now; there are plenty of opportunities."
Chun felt quite relieved: "Very good. As for , the situation is as usual. No need to worry."
"Alright, Brother Chun, enjoy it."
After breakfast, Chun logged in again.
The outline of Plague Island appeared in the moonlight, visible also was a faint solitary lamp, surely light from Nancy inside the church.
This feeling of returning to familiar ground filled Chun with emotion.
Nabchuanxi said: "We’re here. We should alert the Guardian God on the island, you take over."
Ah, speaking of which, looking like I do, wouldn’t Nancy think I’m an enemy? The key is, the Bone Dragon can’t speak!
— System prompt: You have entered the Plague Island sea area.
It’s here!
But there’s no system prompt alerting the Guardian God? Unbelievable, didn’t Sister Bai and Sherry remotely summon Nancy when leaving the village last ti? How could there be no response here?
In short, Chun landed in front of the church, startling a flock of crows into the sky, yet Nancy was still nowhere to be seen.
Holy shit? Not here? Went out to play? Then who lit the church’s lamp? How could she, being so loyal to her guard duties, go out to play?
Chun said: "Let’s leave the Evil God and take a look."
— System prompt: Warning! Once you leave the Evil God Consciousness Space, the Evil God will lose control.
Holy shit!
Chun was taken aback: "Can’t leave yet?!"
Nabchuanxi said: "This church lamp is not a normal church lamp; it’s been replaced with a permanent cetery lamp, and it’s enclosed in the attic, so even if there’s a storm around the island, it won’t be extinguished."
Ah!
Just then, Nabchuanxi suddenly beca alert: "Take off!"
With the Bone Dragon soaring into the sky, a long strip suddenly extended from the church door, fiercely whipping the spot just vacated.
Only now did Chun see a burst of red light before his eyes — System prompt: Warning! You are under attack by a giant octopus!
Nabchuanxi was stunned: "What is this?"
Chun laughed: "It’s the octopus on the island, looks like the Guardian God really went out to play and left this octopus guarding."
I must say, octopuses are indeed miraculous alien shape-shifting, color-changing creatures, able to inconceivably squeeze into all sorts of little crevices. This church being able to ambush its seemingly massive body doesn’t seem to be an issue. But its ability to leave underwater and hide on land is indeed unexpected.
Nabchuanxi exclaid: "And the seeds?"
Chun said: "Just drop them directly; it knows what to do."
Nabchuanxi wondered: "It won’t eat them, will it?"
Um...
Actually, Chun doesn’t know much about this octopus; genuinely uncertain if it would eat them. Yet, a little embarrassed to admit his unfamiliarity.
Chun forced a smile: "No, this is a very intelligent octopus."
Indeed, octopuses are inherently exceptionally intelligent, even more so an octopus that has consud Magic Gold and has Divine Format, and has experienced a hundred-year crossing plot; this is essentially a god!
As the seeds dropped at the door, the octopus’s tentacle imdiately swiped them away.
Actually, even if it really ate them, they would be a nutritious supplent. But if it’s clever enough, and plants the seeds at the sea abyss where the Magic Gold mine is, it would save a lot of trouble. Just uncertain if seeds can germinate and grow in the depths of the sea abyss?
Nabchuanxi said: "Alright, it’s a secret mission. The Evil God can’t stay long; we’re leaving soon."
