Mini World Game Console-Chapter 675 - 676: Suo Spouting at People [Requesting Monthly Tickets for 10,000 Updates]
Luoyin City's Second Ring quaked!
When Los followed the Divine Guard Squad to join the main group, he saw those few Bloodline Great Laws surrounded and admired by the Divine Descendants, looking down on all life forms, dominating with immense pressure!
[Graceful Great Law, affiliated with Sanguine Grand Duke, who governs pleasure and carnage.]
[Sky Orbit Great Law, affiliated with Meridia Grand Duke, who governs light and the extermination of evil.]
[Twin Stars Great Law, affiliated with Azura Grand Duke, who governs the stars, moon, and souls.]
Los silently reviewed the few Bloodline Great Laws opposing each other, then his gaze shifted toward the very center of the group, to Sony the Great, the most revered among the Bloodline Great Laws.
It was then Ren Suo noticed that compared to other Bloodline Great Laws, Sony the Great had the most guards visibly present—two Three-Star Divine Descendants protected him, one on each side. In contrast, the other Bloodline Great Laws seemed to require no guards; if there were any, they appeared more like male attendants or maids, serving various purposes rather than simply acting as protectors.
In fact, the Bloodline Great Laws did not need guards at all. With each possessing Three-Star combat power and the activation of their exclusive Bloodline abilities, they could effortlessly overpower any Divine Descendant.
In such a situation, why would they need protection from guards? If something happened, it was more likely they'd be protecting the guards.
This was troubling. Sony the Great was not only powerful himself; he also had many elite Three-Star Divine Descendants by his side, making him difficult to kill… Aren't bosses supposed to send their underlings to deliver themselves to the protagonist and then fight the protagonist alone at the end? How come this boss had gathered all his power from the start, acting so cautiously?
Los had no other choice but to follow the group to Yisu Great Law's Second Ring residence. Unlike Sega Great Law's residence, Yisu Great Law's place looked like a library from the outside and indeed was a library inside.
Yisu Great Law appeared as a young man with red hair standing in the hall; behind him stood various beautiful Female Divine Descendants, clearly a force to be reckoned with.
[Yisu Great Law, affiliated with Mora Grand Duke, who governs knowledge and Destiny.]
"Sony the Great, Graceful Great Law, Sky Orbit Great Law…" A blue-haired girl beside Yisu Great Law stepped forward to greet the Great Laws and asked, "What brings you here all of a sudden?"
Graceful Great Law said, "Hehe, Yisu, your habit of not talking still hasn't changed."
Yisu Great Law just smiled, remaining silent.
Sony the Great said, "We suspect Dragonborn Los is involved with Mora Grand Duke and wish for the Divine Guard Squad to thoroughly investigate Yisu Great Law's residence."
"How could Dragonborn Los possibly be involved with Mora Grand Duke?" The blue-haired girl exclaimed loudly, "Sony the Great, although you have the support of Grand Duke Menelerus and Young Lord Xides, when it concerns a Great Law, please speak with caution!"
"Otherwise, there's no explanation for Dragonborn Los's ability to use others' cartridges as he pleases." Sony the Great said, "According to intelligence reports, besides changing his appearance, there's another notable strength of Los: he can use anyone's cartridge at will! Whether it's a regular cartridge inscribed by a Great Lord or a Divine Descendant Cartridge crafted by a Great Lord himself, he can use them without any issues!"
"Just now, Dragonborn Los killed Sega Great Law! Posecia Grand Duke's Sega Great Law was doubtlessly a combat specialist, particularly skilled in single combat; however, based on the scene's evidence, he was killed one-on-one by Dragonborn Los! Furthermore, he most likely used Posecia Grand Duke's Divine Descendant Cartridge, Brutal Warrior!"
"What does this indicate? It indicates that Dragonborn Los possesses at least Three-Star combat power, and he is also adept at utilizing newly acquired cartridges. His proficiency isn't just mere adeptness; his ability to use Divine Descendant Cartridges to overcome a Bloodline Great Law suggests that his mastery of cartridges has reached the peak, surpassing all Didra Divine Descendants!"
Yisu Great Law frowned slightly and patted the blue-haired girl's shoulder, prompting her to say, "What does this have to do with us?"
"There are many ways to change one's appearance, but who could master breaking, using, and excelling at all cartridges?" Sony the Great stepped back into the crowd and spoke, "I am baffled and hope Yisu Great Law, representing Mora Grand Duke, who governs knowledge, can provide an explanation."
The blue-haired girl's complexion changed. "You think Dragonborn Los is one of our people?"
"I never said that. Perhaps Dragonborn Los can steal the knowledge of Mora Grand Duke, or perhaps… Mora Grand Duke naturally wouldn't send Dragonborn Los to disrupt the favorable situation in Didra currently, but there undoubtedly are people who want to delay the dimension invasion and block Emperor Xides's path to Divine Enthronement!"
The other Female Divine Descendants of Yisu Great Law said in unison, "You're slandering us!"
Sony the Great produced a token. "This is Emperor Xides's Royal Decree. Everything we say can be heard by His Majesty. Whether it's slander or not, His Majesty will understand!"
"Let's sort out the clues. Who benefits from the appearance of Dragonborn Los? He has killed many Divine Children, causing chaos in the Empire, almost disrupting the troop assembly. If not for His Majesty's brilliant and martial genius, who expedited the process, even the invasion plan might have been delayed because of him."
"Who benefits from delaying the invasion plan? The Sixteen Great Monarchs, linked by shared interests, collectively decide on the invasion plan; thus, the Sixteen Great Monarchs would absolutely not disrupt the plan. The delay of the plan serves no benefit to the Great Monarchs. Therefore, the only beneficiary must be the ambitious conspirator hiding in the shadows!"
"If the plan were delayed, and something were to happen to His Majesty, then the next ruler of the Empire would naturally be one of the Three Imperial Clans, Mora Grand Duke's Yisu Great Law!"
Three Imperial Clans?
At that moment, Los felt a surge in his heart and retrieved information from the memories of Sega Great Law: [The Three Imperial Clans refer to Grand Duke Menelerus, who governs change and destruction, Mora Grand Duke, who governs knowledge and fate, and Great Lord Nocturnal, who governs night and shadows. Only the Bloodline Great Laws of these three Great Lords are eligible to be the Imperial Sovereign. For a thousand years, the supreme ruler of the Empire has rotated among the Bloodline Great Laws of these three Great Lords, with many Great Lords previously being Bloodline Great Laws of these three families.]
Huh? Do the Bloodline Great Laws of other Great Lords like Morag, Posecia, and Farkas not qualify at all?
Even if it's about the other Great Lords, Ren Suo well remembers how arrogant the followers of Grand Duke Morag were and how violent the cartridges of the Morag series were. How could even His Divine Descendants not qualify to rule the Empire?
Didra clearly operates under the law of Survival of the Fittest. In theory, in such a society, power shifts must inherently relate to strength; it is impossible to have a stable ruler, much less a stable rotational ruling system. And even the powerful Grand Duke Morag does not qualify to meddle with the supreme power in the human world.
That is to say, the strength of the Three Imperial Clans far surpasses the other Great Lords. And this strength might not necessarily be overt.
Meanwhile, Sony the Great's accusations were nearing their end. "...I suspect that Dragonborn Los has a close relationship with Yisu Great Law. Yisu Great Law, by commanding Dragonborn Los to disrupt the Empire and destabilize the march plans, aims only to buy time, replace Emperor Xides, and snatch the credit for invading the dimension!"
The face of Yisu Great Law darkened, and his women retorted, "Sony the Great, you all are baselessly slandering us without any evidence!"
"No evidence? Then let's search for evidence!" Sony the Great declared, "By His Majesty's command, search Yisu Great Law's residence!"
Yisu Great Law did not obstruct, and the Divine Guard spread out to search, scrutinizing the residence thoroughly. Yisu Great Law's residence was full of books, the only source of light being the Black Pearls in the walls. Los carefully checked them, concluding: [Yisu Great Law's residence has a surveillance system; these Black Pearls are recording devices.]
Upon completion of the search, Sony the Great was still not satisfied, continuing, "It's very normal not to find Dragonborn Los; Dragonborn Los can morph into others, making him easy to conceal. Maybe he has transformed into someone here right now, laughing at our folly."
At that moment, Twin Stars Great Law coldly stated, "I have been monitoring the surroundings; there have been no detected Spiritual Energy fluctuations."
"With many Great Laws coming together, how could he dare to transform at the last moment? If he indeed is hiding here, he must have transformed into another person and concealed himself among the crowd before our arrival!"
Suddenly, Yisu Great Law drew a long sword and slashed a mark on the ground, coldly watching them.
Sony the Great, however, was not afraid at all. "Submit to inspection, Yisu Great Law. Aren't you afraid that the girls behind you might have been assassinated and replaced by Dragonborn Los? If you are upright and have no relations with Dragonborn Los, what are you afraid of?"
At this time, Twin Stars Great Law spoke again, "Don't worry, Yisu, no one else will make a move. I will use the Eyes of Stars and Moon to conduct the surveillance. If even I can't tell, there's no need for anyone else to inspect."
After a long silence, Yisu Great Law finally nodded and made way, allowing Twin Stars Great Law to inspect the people in the residence.
Naturally, no one had an issue.
Then, Sony the Great spoke again, "But there's still one person here who hasn't been checked."
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they all turned to look at Yisu Great Law. The scene suddenly became eerily quiet.
"Even if Dragonborn Los possesses Three-Star combat power, the fact that he could kill Sega Great Law is still too incredulous. You and I both know, the difference between a Bloodline Great Law and a Three-Star Divine Descendant is almost as vast as that between a Three-Star Divine Descendant and a mortal..."
"Moreover, the one who died was Sega Great Law, known for his single combat prowess..."
"Therefore, the person who made the move must also possess Bloodline combat power to be reasonable. Moreover, this person must also understand Sega Great Law's weaknesses and know how to disguise as someone Sega Great Law trusts to infiltrate the residence..."
The Divine Guard surrounded Yisu Great Law, and the other Great Laws also eyed him predatorily.
Divine Descendants closely gathered around Sony the Great, who held up the Royal Decree and loudly said, "By the order of Emperor Xides, Yisu Great Law is required to be inspected!
I'm sorry, Yisu Great Law, I must kill Los. He left a declaration on the wall saying 'First kill Sega, then execute Sony,' and I have been targeted for assassination several times by him!
But I didn't expect him to escape from Dark Descending and come to Luoyin City!
How were the coordinates of Luoyin City leaked? Even I only know the secret commands to enter and exit, but entering Luoyin City requires multiple steps. Besides the Great Lords and Mora Followers who control Knowledge, who else would know these steps?
He's too bold, coming to Luoyin City and trying to assassinate Sega Great Law, a Bloodline Great Law stronger than I am!
Why is he so powerful? Why is he so confident?
Because he inherently possesses such strong capabilities! Because he is confident he will never be investigated!
I do not want to be the next one to die!"
CLANG!
With a Sword Chime, Yisu Great Law's sword pierced through the ceiling, pointing at Sony the Great.
Go on, fight, throw a left hook!
Ren Suo roared excitedly in his heart, anticipating internal strife among his enemies.
However, this game wasn't so foolish. Eventually, Yisu Great Law swallowed his pride and accepted the inspection by Twin Stars Great Law.
Naturally, nothing was found. Sony the Great immediately said, "I'm sorry, Yisu Great Law. Actually, I also don't believe you are really Dragonborn Los. But when you drew your sword just now, I thought your conspiracy was exposed and that you were signaling to Los..."
Then the Divine Guard returned to ranks and simply left Yisu Great Law's residence.
Ren Suo blinked. Huh? That's it? It ended just like this?
Such an anticlimactic finish...
Ren Suo always felt something was off. He equipped himself with 'Seeker's Ornament,' 'A Thousand Miles in a Day,' and 'Listening Headphones,' and reviewed the just-witnessed scene again.
Then a bold idea popped into his head. He reloaded the save and waited for the plot to advance to the point where Sony the Great slandered Yisu Great Law. Then he had Los stealthily leave the crowd and run to a blind spot not visible to any Black Pearl.
CLANG!
At the moment the Sword Chime was heard, the game popped up an option: "Break through the wall and escape hidden!"
BOOM!
A loud explosion occurred as Los broke through the mansion wall, transforming into a Shadow silently sprinting along the wall, circumventing it, and returning to the mansion!
By then, the mansion was in total disarray. Many Divine Guards were investigating the broken wall, but the atmosphere in the main hall was still tense. All Great Laws and Divine Descendants were confronting Yisu Great Law!
"Haha, no need to investigate Yisu Great Law anymore. Since the main suspect ran away at this time, it must be that Yisu Great Law is innocent. Haha, how coincidental that when Yisu Great Law was to be investigated, Dragonborn Los chose to escape."
Although Sony the Great said this, he still held up the Royal Decree, having everyone surround Yisu Great Law.
"Yisu Great Law, the dimension invasion is about to start, and you will surely participate in this war. How about you rest and prepare for battle inside the Royal Court?" Sony the Great said. "Dragonborn Los is fleeing outside; even the Second Ring may not be safe. Outside is messy, and disturbances might arise, but the Royal Court will surely protect you completely."
Yisu Great Law, holding his sword, stayed silent for a long while but eventually sheathed his sword and nodded.
The timing of Los's appearance was too coincidental; no matter how he explained, he was implicated.
Sony the Great commanded, "Divine Guard, escort Yisu Great Law to the Royal Court!"
Ren Suo breathed a sigh of relief. This segment of the story wasn't difficult, but it required precise timing to further frame Yisu Great Law and push the story forward.
Checking the time, it was about time to sleep. Ren Suo took a bath, brushed his teeth, changed into his pajamas, and crawled under the covers. He petted the Black Cat's head, turned off her tablet, and turned off the light, saying, "Time to sleep."
However, before Ren Suo could fall soundly asleep, he felt a warm body entangling him like an octopus.
Only then did Ren Suo remember that Luna hadn't had her half-hour wife experience tonight! But he had gotten carried away playing the game and truly forgot about it.
"Hey? Luna?"
"I wanted to try sleeping like this. Suosuo, don't wake me by rolling over on me later; you woke me last time, and it hurt quite badly..."
"How could I be so—oh, you mean after you turn back into a cat. I'll be mindful of my sleeping position... Wait, could you, could you get up and play on the tablet, even if you just sit while I play..."
"No, I want to sleep holding you today."
Ren Suo intended to resist, but he was held tightly by Luna, and the more he squirmed, the more it made him not want to resist; he dared not move—he really didn't want to take another cold shower after half an hour!
He could only say in a low voice, "Are there really no other options?"
"No, I must hold you while sleeping today!"
"Then can you at least wear some clothes..."
"No clothes!"
Ren Suo swore that in the future, he must play well with Luna before bedtime, exhausting her energy completely.
