Imperial Treasure-Chapter 817 - 503: Constructive Discussion (3)

Muen Mashafeideli analyzed it this way, and everyone suddenly understood, that’s right!

Sui Yi’s mind conjured up those eyes seen in the garden, among those creatures.

She was watching them too.

Cold, disdainful.

Sui Yi curled her fingers slightly and said softly, "The other party must be inside, right here in this castle."

Sui Yi’s words were probably the most constructive from start to finish; though she rarely spoke, she hit the point every time she did.

So precisely that many people privately suspected she was the mastermind behind it all.

Now with these words, naturally, everyone looked over.

"Just now, I had a conversation with him."

As everyone gasped, she pointed her finger at the ubiquitous iron statues inside the castle.

"Each of them hides a charred corpse, and inside the charred corpse is a Corpse Centipede. In your West, these Corpse Centipedes are used by Alchemists to devour the essence of corpses, forming alchemical materials. But they have another function: they can use thirty-six antennae to create sounds, transmitting messages for their master, similar to the Witch’s raven."

The general meaning of Sui Yi’s words was that both the East and West have these things, so don’t immediately suspect us Easterners.

However, most people were obviously more concerned about another point.

Oh my God!

There are over a dozen iron statues in this hall, doesn’t that mean they’ve been monitoring and eavesdropping on us for a very long time?

Damn it!

No way, Eastern Goddess, how can you remain so calm!

Landis smirked, "Miss Sui is the calmest person I’ve ever met.."

I suspect you are the mastermind murderer, you know!

Sui Yi didn’t care about their expressions, she just continued, "The range of control for this kind of Corpse Centipede is at most within ten meters, but many creatures here have mutated. Let’s roughly calculate according to their life intensity multiplicator, between thirty to fifty times, far from exceeding the range of this castle. So he’s here, just like us."

Pausing for a moment, she said, "Of course, it’s also possible that Natasha is already inside the castle."

Ah, what you’re saying is really not good news.

"So, what’s your suggestion?" Landis asked.

"From the beginning, he only gave you one choice."

"What choice?"

"Find him."

Sui Yi glanced at the crowd, "The first generation is the root of power **; the second generation is the basic human moral sins; the third generation is the evil derived from hunger. All the murals here relate to Jesus. Based on your Western Bible’s Seven Deadly Sins, greed, lust, gluttony, envy, sloth, pride, wrath, they all correspond completely from the first three generations. The greed for power, the distortion of lust, the hunger of gluttony has already taken over; I think starting from the fourth generation would be family power struggles or sibling jealousies and murders. The fifth is family tragedy caused by sloth; the sixth generation is pride. That Mr. Kamusitode must have been inherently proud, but because the gap between reality and imagination was too large, it led to depression. Am I right?" (I strangely feel like I’ve already used the Seven Deadly Sins trope somewhere, like with the seven Senior Immortals in a Maiden, did I use it in Imperial Treasure?)

Many were dumbfounded, speechless, including Landis or Justin, who fell silent.

The elder behind Xius and Mo Luo’s eyes lit up, staring intently at Sui Yi.

Except for the Old Earl, who clapped his hands and sighed, "Right, spot on!"

Come on! Old man, you can still laugh!

Almost no one refuted Sui Yi’s words, because after she finished speaking, they all incorporated her analysis. Once incorporated, they realized it turned out to be exactly like this! 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"So, then what?"

Someone muttered the question, and immediately covered their mouth; well, I seem to have no right to speak.

But no one cared anymore.

Because Sui Yi said, "Continue."

And then just continue.

Reality continues.

Third is followed by fourth; this fourth will play out upon them.

"So, his next move is for us to internalize jealousy and murder, which is why Mr. Nusser repeatedly incites discord among us. This is the foundation laid by the fourth generation. Then, the fifth generation’s sloth? Perhaps it means if we sit back and wait, it will cause the fifth generation’s tragedy! The sixth generation’s pride~ we will underestimate someone, overlook some key points, blur reality and falsity, leading to confinement, unable to escape, collective madness and depression."
