Mic Master said, "Lady Luck, we hope that we can release her."
"She can't break through this Iron Coffin?" Zhou Yi asked.
"No. She said that's not a coffin, but a Bai Bi's weapon chest. Lady Luck, as a weapon, was connected inside by the Warlord."
"It's Bai Bi who truly locks her up."
"Concept Life all have vessels, and Bai Bi is her vessel. As long as Bai Bi's life continues, she cannot co out."
Zhou Yi frowned: "Does she want us to kill Bai Bi?"
"Yes. She said she would follow us and beco your servant and subordinate, serving you."
Mic Master suggested, "This could strengthen your power. She is strong, her power is very special."
Zhou Yi frowned upon hearing this.
Encouraging others to kill an existing vessel doesn't sound like a good thing.
Compared to this creature, Bai Bi is more trustworthy.
However.
Bai Bi herself doesn't know what's inside the Iron Coffin on her back, and it's pointless to ask her.
At this mont, Weapon Princess is being installed with the Floating Heart, cooperating with two veteran engineers. It's best not to disrupt that normal process.
So Zhou Yi silently recited in his heart.
"Night God, Night God, summon my spirit."
At the edge of the couch, Night God slowly appeared, holding a round fan.
She was still in that classical makeup, wearing a wide-sleeved dress, poised and elegant.
"It's been a while, I've missed you. What brings you here, Mr. Zhou?"
"I'd like you to identify a Concept Life for ."
After listening, Night God's gaze shifted to the rusty little iron coffin.
"This... oh, it turns out to be her."
"I know who she is."
"But saying her na will also earn resentnt, and that's not a good thing."
Night God said with a strange expression.
"Is she difficult to deal with?"
"Not just difficult, but problematic, like sticky plaster that brings trouble once it sticks to you."
Zhou Yi muttered to himself, even the Light Core Body of Night God is wary of her, this Lady Luck indeed seems to be a tough nut to crack.
"However, you did a big favor… so I'll take on the trouble then."
Night God spoke softly, "The one you spoke to is not any Lady Luck, but the Cursed Witch, this is her real na, or one of her real nas."
She looked towards the Iron Coffin and frowned slightly: "Now she is already cursing , and I will be unlucky for a while..."
There was indeed a problem.
Zhou Yi said, "So the idea that good luck and bad luck are two sides of the sa coin is false?"
"This is actually true."
Night God shook her little fan: "Bad luck and good luck are indeed two sides of the sa coin, but most of the ti, it's bad luck that takes the lead. The reason is simple, in this world, destruction and disorder are much more abundant than creation and order."
"People often lant about bad luck, and how they are unlucky today, but monts of good luck are few and far between."
"Because the vast majority of life is still within the domains of order and creation. In a world that is continually tending towards destruction and disorder, it's naturally uncomfortable everywhere."
"Like a stream that's running low on water, the fish are always looking for a better riverbed, but mostly what they find are stranded mudflats."
"It's not really the Cursed Witch's fault."
Night God spoke softly, "Most lives in this world walk amidst bad luck; hence, she naturally takes the form of the Cursed Witch."
"She is like a mirror of the material world."
"But don't think she can't do anything. On the contrary, she can do a lot, she can not only trigger bad luck in advance, but also decides the direction in which it unfolds—even the strongest of lives, even the Light Core Body, is helpless against sothing like bad luck and can only grit their teeth and endure."
"So you understand my hesitation and the risks?"
Zhou Yi said, "I will rember this favor."
The Night God too will suffer from being hated by the Cursed Witch.
"Bad luck is prone to lies, while good luck is always silent."
Night God closed her fan: "The other side of the Cursed Witch is called the Lucky Mute Girl."
"The tis when good luck appears are actually not few, of course, it can't compare to bad luck. However, most of the ti, most beings don't realize that being born is a great fortune, avoiding death is also very fortunate."
"But the probability of encountering great misfortune is indeed more likely in life. eting the great revelation of the Lucky Mute Girl is sothing you can hope for but can't expect."
"The Cursed Witch embodies the chaos of activity and recklessness, so she has all kinds of sweet words, lively and intimate, fawning and serving."
"The Lucky Mute Girl, on the other hand, is like an extre conservative side; she never speaks, adheres to herself, and diligently maintains and weaves the ever-diminishing threads of luck."
Zhou Yi pondered in his heart.
This misfortune and fortune, at the level of Concept Life, seem more like a dual personality. Occupying completely opposite careers, they also have completely opposite characteristics.
"The Warlord, sohow, managed to make this Weapon Princess their vessel, and I roughly understand why," Zhou Yi said to the Night God, "He probably desires the Lucky Mute Girl more, but with fortune cos misfortune. Hence, he let his subordinate bear it."
"Actually, it's a very difficult thing because as the vessel for the Witch of Misfortune, she could wreak havoc with misfortune at any mont, causing the bearer to experience pain and despair."
"Through manipulation of misfortune, it instills greater fear and reverence for it, which in fact is also a ans for the Witch of Misfortune to enhance her own power."
"But well..."
The Night God looked toward Bai Bi, who was holding her own head up in the distance for everyone to scrutinize.
"It seems the Warlord chose wisely, soone with an empty head and extre simplicity could actually counter the Witch of Misfortune, preventing her from exerting strong influence and control."
The naturally foolish can overco the craftily sinister.
Bai Bi indeed is a treasure against the Witch of Misfortune.
After this explanation, Zhou Yi's thoughts beca clearer.
"So, it ans using Bai Bi to contain the Witch of Misfortune and then waiting for the ergence of the Lucky Mute Girl?"
"That's about right."
"It's like rolling dice, where only a six brings fortune, and the rest are misfortune. The dice roll on their own, uncontrollable. When luck or misfortune strikes, it also impacts those around, so the Warlord is probably using this thod to facilitate high-risk activities to increase the chances of success."
The Night God glanced at the tal coffin: "If you really let her out, you'll get entangled, she won't stop torturing the vessel until it becos her slave. That's the real trouble. I suggest caution."
"Anything else? I'm off if there's nothing more. I'm quite busy with the Church stuff, a lot is going on."
Zhou Yi asked, "Wait a minute. What do you an by the great favor I've done for you?"
"You ntioned before about using the creation of idols to boost the Church's appeal, which works very well!"
Speaking of this, her face revealed a pleased expression.
"I've reford the Church, selecting and grooming Godsons and Goddesses that people like. They distribute food as charity while giving out Divine Sacrifice Vouchers to those seeking solace in their hearts—of course, they need to donate a little. Parishioners are given priority."
"Apart from further enhancing our reputation, the Divine Sacrifice Vouchers fulfill so people's elusive needs. Be it the darkest or most fervent desires, they can be achieved in the realm of consciousness."
"This approach not only brought us a surge in the number of believers but also led to cooperation with so cities."
"Initially, the cooperation started with issuing Divine Sacrifice Vouchers to repeat offenders, allowing them to fulfill their psychological desires and comfort, which made them confess their cris. The effect was very good."
"Later, it's advocated by figures from various fields of the cities; both good and bad people need comfort."
"Now we have officially cooperated with six cities, and the number of new believers singing praises for my na has increased, and my power has grown significantly."
The Night God smiled: "I'm currently discussing an important matter with a few cities to determine the main base and holy land for the Night Church. They used to refuse outright, but now they're competing for the chance."
"All this thanks to your advice and strategic planning."
"I'm also considering a formal alliance between the Church and various hospitals, using Divine Sacrifice Vouchers for terminal patient care. This would allow the Church to gain more recognition and gratitude."
Zhou Yi nodded: "That's a good idea, Maria Hospital is also willing to cooperate."
For those nearing death, less pain is better than anything else.
Zhou Yi can't be sure where the Church will go in the future.
But in this Wasteland World, where one retires and another enters the fray, any change is generally good.
"Then, goodbye, I'm off to keep busy."
"Wait a minute."
"Sothing else?"
"That... Dragon, do you know about it?"
"I've heard of it."
The Night God curious: "What for? You want to deal with it?"
Zhou Yi inquired: "How strong is it?"
"It used to be quite formidable, widely worshipped and sacrificed to on both continents, being a primary deity. But it fell into decline quite long ago. Having been killed several tis by those guys, its power has greatly diminished, and since it does not show up much its influence is far from what it once was... Oh, sothing urgent, I have to go."
She vanished in the middle of speaking.
However, from the information revealed by the Night God, it's known that the Dragon also had its glory days in the early Wasteland era.
...
After a week, Bai Bi got her hands on 100 Floating Hearts. Two of which she installed on herself, rating them highly.
"This feels great! I feel stronger and more agile throughout my body!"
"Such a treasured item! Very powerful!"
"I feel my explosive power has increased by about 10%!"
She waved her fist through the air.
Having received the hearts packed into iron boxes and replaced with new equipnt, Bai Bi happily paid and said goodbye.
Before she left, she handed Zhou Yi a microphone, telling him to contact her when there were 900 in stock, and she would co to collect them.
The day after Bai Bi left.
703 knocked on Zhou Yi's door.
"Chairman, the two satellites, Eastern Red 1 and Beiyong 1, have both been completely repaired. Their existing data have been sowhat restored, bringing so new intelligence."
"Especially Eastern Red 1, it has sothing it wants to tell you in person."
Zhou Yi stood up: "Let's go, to the hospital."
