56: Chapter 56: The Chatty Leo_1 56: Chapter 56: The Chatty Leo_1 “First, all twelve of the original founders of the secret technique association have died, and the cause of their death remains unknown.

Their inherited secrets can only be obtained by players.

So, everyone here are players.

You don’t have to worry about revealing your identity, and you can freely discuss as we are all on the sa side.

Moreover, we use our zodiac signs as code nas, so there’s no need for your real nas or nicknas…”

As Taurus was speaking, Mu You observed the others’ reactions and noticed that Scorpio and Aquarius seed relieved on hearing his words, indicating that, like him, they were newcors attending the eting for the first ti.

As for the other three, they were unresponsive, clearly seasoned veterans who had participated in the gathering many tis before.

“…On another note, I have an interesting proposition.

I’m wondering if our three new faces might be interested,” Taurus said in a mysterious tone after introducing so general facts.

“What proposition?” Aquarius asked curiously.

She was a woman, and judging from her voice, she was relatively young.

“Hehe, these etings take place only once a week, and with various constraints.

To facilitate the exchange among us, the inheritors of secret techniques, Gemini and I jointly created a players’ guild called ‘The Illuminati’.

Established half a year ago, it has gradually attracted over five hundred players.

It is one of the largest organizations among the initial testing player community.

If you are interested in joining, I promise to allocate a vice president’s position to each of you, and you can enjoy the guild’s highest level benefits for a whole year!

What do you say?” Taurus proposed the idea.

At this mont, Gemini sitting next to him nodded in affirmation, indicating that what Taurus said was true.

“So…

you an, we would have to et in person?” The male newcor from Scorpio looked a bit worried.

“Of course.”

“But the guild rules clearly state that revealing one’s identity is strictly forbidden…” Aquarius, the female newcor, hesitated a little.

“Hehe, those are rules set by the Star Spirit World folks.

What does it have to do with us players?” Taurus laughed dismissively.

“Everyone here has passed the guild’s initiation trial.

You should all understand that what we possess is the most domineering and potent force in this ga!

The world is about to undergo a significant change.

If the twelve inheritors of secret techniques can unite, this will unquestionably beco a force that could alter the direction of the world!

How about it, are the three of you interested?” Taurus’ gaze shifted between Scorpio and Aquarius, seemingly coercing them to choose a side.

“…”

Sorpio cast his eyes around, remaining silent.

Taurus then focused his gaze solely on Aquarius, “How about you, Aquarius?

Interested in joining?”

“Well…

That is…

I…” Aquarius was obviously flustered.

On the one hand, she was not eager to accept this vague proposition; on the other, she feared offending Taurus.

She was just a novice player who had just started less than a month ago; in her eyes, everyone present was daunting and not soone she would want to offend.

“Hehe, it’s okay, take your ti to think.

Oh, also, where do you live?

Our headquarter is located in S city.

If it’s not too far, I could arrange for you to co over and have a tour,” Taurus suddenly asked nonchalantly.

“Oh, I live in…”

“Well, I’m saying!” Before Aquarius could answer, her voice was drowned out by a louder one.

Everyone’s attention instinctively focused on the main seat.

Taurus frowned and looked at Mu You by his side.

“What is it, Aries?

Are you interested in our guild?

You’re always welco!” Taurus said jovially.

“I said, isn’t this assembly not ant to serve as a platform for forming factions?” Mu You spoke calmly, without any hint of emotion, leaving others uncertain whether it was a question or a reprimand.

However, his statent silenced the room imdiately.

Taurus’ smile froze, his face darkened, “What do you an?”

Mu You glanced at him and sneered, “Wasn’t I clear enough?

As far as I know, this is a platform for exchanging and helping each other as Sorcerers, not for your circle-forming.”

He had brought all his cards intending to trade with others, but this guy, relying on his veteran player status, wanted to turn this eting into a ‘recruitnt event’.

Would he let that happen?

“You, a novice, dare to lecture , a seasoned player who has been here for half a year?

You must be…”

Taurus’ voice abruptly ca to a halt.

Mu You glanced at him indifferently.

He moved his finger away from the Aries image before him, “Since you are offering no productive communication, I suggest you keep quiet.”

In this palace, the Upper Constellation Aries could silence the Lower Constellations at any ti.

And Mu You, who inherited the Aries Ring from the founder of the secret technique association, the Calamity Witch, held the power to silence and expel all those present.

He was the leading figure among the twelve constellations.

If this eting were a group chat, he would be the group admin, holding the power of life and death over other group mbers.

So he really can’t understand how this guy dared to argue with him so boldly.

Did the guy think he’s an inexperienced youth who could be intimidated by a sentence or two?

“Hey, hey, Aries, aren’t you going a bit too far?”

Gemini, seeing Taurus muted, couldn’t sit still anymore, started to reproach Mu You as an impartial client- “Once you are in the Illuminati, everyone is equal.

We should discuss issues properly.

How can you take advantage of your authority to mute people at will?”

“Equal?

Heh, when you two were muting people just now, why didn’t you ntion being equal?” Mu You scoffed.

He had already noticed that when soone was muted, the astrological sign on their face would dim.

And at this point, not only Taurus had a dim symbol; behind him, ‘Leo’ and ‘Sagittarius’ did too.

Based on the hierarchy, the only ones present who could mute Leo are Aries, Taurus, and Gemini.

Since Mu You hadn’t muted anyone himself, then it must have been these two.

Moreover, they had muted people as soon as they arrived, not even waiting for them to speak.

When it cos to ssing with authority, you two are the pioneers.

“It’s not the sa, we muted them because….”

Gemini’s voice suddenly stopped.

Mu You glanced at the two gaping people beside him, speaking lightly, “Go ho and calm down, then write ten thousand words of self-criticism for to check next week.

It has to be sincere, from the heart.

Otherwise, both of you don’t need to co here anymore.”

In saying this, he touched the Aries symbol, and the figures of the two n instantly disappeared from the council table.

At the sa ti, he quickly unmuted Leo and Sagittarius.

“Ay, I can speak now?”

Unmuted for two seconds, Leo suddenly spoke in surprise.

Then, like firecrackers, more words sprang out: “Big Aries, you did a great job!

You kicked them out just right!

I’m the oldest here in this eting, but because these two dogs are a higher rank than , they mute every week, making watch them deceive these clueless newbies.

I can’t do anything, goddamn it, I was almost dying of suffocation…”

“…”

“By the way, you, Aquarius girl, were too careless.

How could you get duped by such crude rhetoric?”

“What?”

The Aquarius girl was flustered and very ashad when she heard her na, “I, I just heard him report his own position, I just subconsciously…”

“The youth…”

Leo shook his head nostalgically: “You don’t really think he was telling the truth about S City, do you?

I tell you, their crappy eting could be anywhere, but not in S City, believe it or not!

This kind of trickery only works on you newbies…

actually, besides you three newcors, there were originally 6 mbers in the council.

People sat in the Capricorn and Libra seats, but they were all disgusted away, never ca again after being muted a few tis, so regrettable…

So I say, these two people are garbage, tumors in our council, must be removed, forever and thoroughly…”

“…”

“Now it’s good, Big Aries is here, finally soone with a higher rank can manage these two authority dogs!

Hahaha….

By the way, Big Aries, I don’t think you have to wait for their self-criticism either.

They won’t write it, if they do it is definitely sobody else doing it for them.

How about we permanently ban them?

I raise both my hands and feet in agreent!”

“…”

“Hm?

Big Aries, why are you not talking?”

“You…

you’re pretty annoying!”

Mu You frowned as he watched the fast-paced chatter of the man in front of him, feeling a buzz in his head.

He suddenly realized that maybe those two people always muting Leo had been the right decision in a certain sense.
