Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 351 - 267: Larilo Breaks Defense (Requesting Monthly Ticket of 10,000 Words!)_2

Larilo isn’t responding to communications now, but that doesn’t necessarily mean something has happened.

Perhaps if I wait another half an hour, there will be a different result.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu returned to the mahogany desk, then reached for the coin and put it back in his pocket. Afterward, he picked up some of the books laid out on the desk and began to read.

In times of chaos, books are considered one of the most valuable things. Most people’s homes no longer have any.

Yet, in this villa study prepared by The Five Elders, books were abundant.

Moreover, these books were both old and new. Some dated back to before the Era of Disaster while others still had the fresh smell of ink.

Qiu Tu casually picked up two new books and flipped through them.

The written language in this world was in simplified characters, which Qiu Tu read without any difficulty.

The book he was reading was a philosophical work called "Existence," written by someone named Rao Shou.

Qiu Tu had never heard this name before, nor did he know who it was.

However, the book was very interesting.

It explored the meaning of "existence" according to philosophical thinking—what exactly is existence.

The relationship between life and death, and existence. Continue your saga on novelbuddy

The concepts of "id," "ego," "super-ego," "consciousness," "physical body," and so on.

The more Qiu Tu read, the more he found it interesting.

The philosophy book seemed to be discussing philosophical issues, but it actually seemed to be delving into the essence of the Era of Disaster.

As he read, Qiu Tu suddenly recalled the reminder from Secretary Bai that morning: Do all the high-ups in the Sanctuary have their political views and philosophical systems?

Political views, Qiu Tu understood. After all, those who could become high-ups in the Sanctuary indeed had their own set of methods to change the world, to alter the course of human progress.

It was also their own methods that led to the various disagreements over the Sanctuary’s direction of governance and development.

The other middle and high-level members were gathered around them, forming factions, because they agreed with their methods and political views.

But the philosophical systems, Qiu Tu had not truly understood before.

Now, through this philosophical book, Qiu Tu suddenly had a bold idea.

The biggest difference between the Era of Disaster and the previous era of normal science is—mental power and the Spirit World (the Boundless Heart Sea).

Even the "Cataclysm Path" requires one to acknowledge their own path, to proceed and carry out along their path to gradually level up.

This is, in fact, a form of spiritual cohesion.

So... may philosophical systems actually be a way to refine the spirit, to establish one’s own Spirit World?

The more he pondered, the more Qiu Tu felt that his speculation might be interesting.

But once you find your own political views, establish your philosophical system, and build your own Spirit World, what will happen then?

Qiu Tu felt as if all this was shrouded in layers of fog.

And while reading, Qiu Tu didn’t forget to occasionally toss the coin.

Every half hour, Qiu Tu would rub the coin a few times, then toss it onto the desk, listening to its spinning sound on the desk while continuing to read.

Time passed without his knowing how long.

Just as Qiu Tu was about to finish the philosophical book, the coin on the desk finally reacted.

The coin spinning rapidly suddenly exploded into a mist, which then condensed into the form of Larilo in midair.

Today’s Larilo was wearing a black high-slit gown, with her perfect figure outlined by the tight-fitting dress.

Her snow-white, slender legs peeked out from the edge of the slit dress, with a hint of seduction.

She wasn’t wearing shoes or socks, and her small feet appeared smooth and flawless, like works of art.

Even though Qiu Tu’s many experiences never featured feet, he couldn’t deny that these were feet that could drive any foot enthusiast crazy.

However, compared to her exquisite attire and appearance, Larilo’s mental state was obviously much worse.

This could be seen by her effort to look energetic, but her overall demeanor was still listless.

"My Pontiff~~ to think you contacted me after just a day. I didn’t expect it," she said.

"I hope I can hear some good news from you."

Qiu Tu observed Larilo’s condition carefully and then replied with a smile, "Your Highness, I indeed have some good news to report to you."

"I have developed more than ten thousand followers for you!"

At Qiu Tu’s words, Larilo was taken aback. Her lethargic spirit even picked up slightly.

She went "Oh?" and looked at Qiu Tu with her crimson eyes, asking, "Really? How did you develop those ten thousand followers?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu solemnly explained,

"Your Highness. Today, I took the opportunity when Yan Chen was away to fiercely advance in the Investigation Bureau and inserted a large number of confidants."

"Now, throughout the Investigation Bureau, every department has my people. My power and reach can be said to have spread throughout the entire Bureau."

"So, as long as you and Her Highness Zhao Ji finish off Yan Chen, his influence in the Bureau will collapse, completely unable to confront me."

"Thus, the whole Bureau will be firmly under my control."

"Then, even if the Sanctuary appoints a new Bureau Chief, I can quietly neutralize him," Qiu Tu added, his face full of self-congratulation. "Your Highness, by then... I, no, you will be the uncrowned ruler of Xinjie City."

"Thousands of investigators in the Bureau will follow your commands, abide by your will."
