My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 390 - 365: Alice’s Steady Performance (4K)
She has always been an empathetic child, especially when facing people with similar circumstances to hers.
But Shen Sui also knew that in this lousy world, being too kind could be exploited by others, deceived by others.
Hasn’t this girl figured that out along the way?
Sometimes, people need to be a bit selfish, or else they’ll invite trouble for no reason.
["You can’t respond to everyone’s pleas for help," you said.]
[Alice didn’t say anything further.]
Did I hit her too hard?
["But I’ve already responded," Alice suddenly spoke up.]
["????"]
No way! When did you do that!
Why so fast!
["And what happened?"]
Shen Sui immediately asked.
[Alice said, "I don’t know, I just said a few words, and that group of people jumped up excitedly and then started praying frantically, giving me a bunch of weird stuff."]
Shen Sui had a bad feeling.
The Dominator of World No. 8 is a supreme being.
Alice, in this situation, has undoubtedly taken the title of the Secret Peeping Man.
No one knows what would happen if a Dominator suddenly began responding to followers’ prayers, not even Shen Sui.
After all, he still hasn’t figured out which world is World No. 8, and because World No. 8 is taboo content in Huaxia, Shen Sui also can’t find much information about it.
He isn’t sure how much impact Alice’s actions this time will have on World No. 8.
He doesn’t particularly care what upheaval occurs in World No. 8, but considering that two Dominators have already invaded the real world from over there, Shen Sui worries that if a change happens there, it might instead doom the real world.
Even though World No. 8 is a forbidden world, as the Exploration Bureau detecting the Soul Card World, they should have information on World No. 8. He even suspects there are Life Card Masters from World No. 8 within the Exploration Bureau.
Shen Sui quickly sent the information to Zhang Fang, asking him for data related to World No. 8 and the recent situation.
"Aren’t you preparing for tomorrow’s finals? What do you need these things for?" Zhang Fang questioned.
He completely lacked the airs of a Huaxia Exploration Bureau director.
In fact, Zhang Fang is just that kind of person; anyone could become his friend, and the stronger your dueling skills, the quicker the friendship forms.
After dealing with Zhang Fang for a long time, Shen Sui could ask him for things so casually.
Obviously, the information on World No. 8 is top secret, but between these two, it seems more like information downloadable from the internet anywhere.
"I need to confirm something," Shen Sui said.
Zhang Fang became even more puzzled.
"You need a reason to call up this data." Zhang Fang said helplessly, "Even though I’m the director, I have to follow the rules. You can’t seriously expect me to submit this as a reason, right?"
"I’m just curious about what’s going on in World No. 8 that it would cause two Dominators to eye our world so eagerly." Shen Sui came up with a decent reason.
I’m just curious, you can’t say I have a problem, right?
Zhang Fang was speechless.
Because of curiosity, you want confidential information from officials?
But thinking about it, he seemed to have also checked out the information on World No. 8 out of curiosity in the past.
"Ah, never mind, I’ll send you a copy later." Zhang Fang said, "I should have a photocopy from back then."
???
No way, Director Zhang, you unwittingly mentioned something that could get you dismissed! Is it even possible to photocopy such confidential information?
"Is it really okay for you to tell me this...?" Shen Sui asked cautiously.
"Tell you what?" Zhang Fang was taken aback, then suddenly realized, "Oh, you’re talking about me photocopying confidential information?"
"There’s really no problem?"
"Well, it’s nothing." Zhang Fang said smilingly, "If you’re really looking, you might even be able to get download links from some bigwigs in certain QQ groups. In fact, not long ago, the Exploration Bureau released some legendary confidential documents from the Soul Card World as part of a plan."
"Is this part of the plan too?"
The authorities have already started preparing to disclose the fact of the Extraordinary World’s invasion, with preliminary public opinion control already underway.
"Uh. Gradually relaxing." Zhang Fang said, "These matters need a gradual adaptation process. Otherwise, the whole world would be in chaos, and it would be easy for those with ill intentions to exploit the situation. You wouldn’t want a scenario where one card needs a whole house to exchange for, right?"
"Cough, cough, I actually look forward to that." Shen Sui coughed twice. After all, he has enough cards in his collection to sell heavily without needing to buy more.
Zhang Fang was stunned and then fell silent for a while before speaking again: "Except for you, kid."
"Come on, why am I excluded?" Shen Sui replied.
Zhang Fang rolled his eyes, said a few things about the plan of the Exploration Bureau to Shen Sui, hoping for his help, and then hung up the phone.
As soon as he hung up, another call came in.
Seeing the number, Zhang Fang frowned slightly.
This was a call from the Monitoring Department, which specializes in monitoring various Soul Card Worlds. Every time this department calls, it’s never good news.
"What’s the matter?" Zhang Fang quickly adjusted himself, slipping into his director’s role.
"Director, something happened in World No. 8." A concerned voice came from the other end of the line.
Just as Shen Sui speculated, the Soul Card Exploration Bureau does have observers in World No. 8. Considering the danger of World No. 8, all those observers underwent professional spirit training before officially selecting World No. 8 as their Soul Card World. After each observation, they undergo seven days of psychological testing to prevent bringing spiritual contamination into the real world.
Each tedious safety procedure conceals numerous sacrifices of predecessors.
Observation of World No. 8 is especially so.
The invasion of the Secret Peeping Man was also reported as a premonition by observers to the Exploration Bureau, which then reacted quickly. Otherwise, considering the Secret Peeping Man’s sneaky behavior, Coastal City would have already become the Secret Peeping Man’s Divine Realm by the time the Exploration Bureau reacted.
"What’s happened this time?" Zhang Fang asked immediately.
"The Secret Peeping Man has declared war against the Master of the Abyss. It seems the war declaration was initiated by the Secret Peeping Man."
"The Secret Peeping Man again?" Zhang Fang was taken aback. Things have just quieted down here, and the Secret Peeping Man is stirring up trouble in World No. 8 again?
This guy shouldn’t lie low and wait for the right moment? Why such a high-profile war declaration, and what is it for?
"Yes, his followers received his revelation and boldly launched a war."
Zhang Fang stroked his chin and fell into contemplation.
Previously, such wars in the Soul Card World wouldn’t have captured Zhang Fang’s attention at all; after all, it’s a matter of two worlds. But now, these events are major issues, particularly because World No. 8 has frequently invaded the real world lately. The war happening there could likely affect the real world and cannot be underestimated.
"Let the observers continue to observe." Zhang Fang immediately said, "And inform Dean Bu that the technology needs to be verified quickly; we can’t keep passively waiting for others to expose themselves."
Zhang Fang quickly assigned the tasks and continued to work busily until nightfall.
Until Shen Sui sent another message to urge him, he remembered he had promised to give Shen Sui a data file.
It’s really bizarre, how come something happened to World No. 8 as soon as this kid asked about it.
Zhang Fang suddenly had an exasperated thought.
It’s too coincidental, so coincidental that he even suspects Shen Sui has some connection with World No. 8.
But Shen Sui’s Soul Card World is clearly marked as World No. 1.
Moreover, through the remaining observers, the Exploration Bureau has confirmed the identity of Shen Sui’s multi-formation Soul Card.
Even though it’s unclear how this kid got involved with the Elf Empress and the Dragon Race Queen, the cards he has in hand are indeed the most influential women on the Dawn Continent.
This kid, could he actually be living off these women in the Soul Card World?
Zhang Fang mused in his heart.
