Chapter 305: The Deadly Rooster's Call
Chapter 305: The Deadly Rooster's Call
Of course, it's to get rid of you. What other reason could there be?
Lyon glanced at the Emerald Jungle in front of the Snake Spirit and guessed that Elder Emma was trapped there. He tried to suppress the malicious intent within his soul and bowed slightly, speaking with deference.
"Snake Spirit, there seems to be a Purification Bureau agent who has infiltrated the Assembly Hall. They are purchasing a large number of items with an unknown source of currency. I fear they might have ulterior motives, so I came to the Dream Realm to report this to you."
Following the plan discussed with Elder Tom, Lyon provided information that was neither completely true nor false. He then opened his system panel and looked at the Holy Spirit Emblem, which had lost its silver glow and now radiated a brilliant golden light.
[In collaboration with Purification Bureau Agent Tom Linas of the Virgo Division, you have successfully assassinated a Scale Gold Sect Bishop. Utilizing the Scale Gold Selection identity granted by the Snake Spirit, you directly filled the vacant position as one of the bishops of the Scale Gold Sect's Wealth Devouring lineage.
Having met the advancement conditions, your Silver-tier Emblem "Practitioner" has successfully advanced to the Gold-tier Emblem "Executor."]
[Executor (Gold): The highest-ranked clergy who acts on behalf of the gods, possessing an extremely deep understanding of the doctrine and the ability to expel heretics through force. This position is equivalent to that of a bishop in most sects.]
[Equip Effect: When in contact with Anomalies bearing the "Holy" attribute, as an Executor, you will have the authority to use them, significantly enhancing their effects and reducing the cost of utilization.]
[Advancement Path: Upon reaching an Immersion Value of 60 points and acquiring a True God-level ability, this Emblem will automatically advance to the Exceptional Emblem "Order True God."
If you have not obtained an ability through enlightenment but instead forcefully acquired the ability of a True God by defeating them, this Emblem will automatically advance to the Exceptional Emblem "Chaos Evil God."
As you have not obtained the Executor status through the orthodox path, a special advancement path is provided. If you kill a True God before reaching an Immersion Value of 60 points and without possessing any abilities, this Emblem will automatically advance to the Exceptional Emblem "God Slayer."]
[Hidden Trait (No Equip Required): As the highest-ranked clergy acting on behalf of the gods, your piety and determination make your soul exceptionally pure, naturally earning the favor of Order entities.]
...
A Purification Bureau agent has infiltrated our midst?
After hearing the report from his "Bishop," the colossal Snake Spirit, whose size rivaled a statue, trembled slightly and hurriedly asked, "Is that suspected agent a man or a woman? What color is their hair? Is it red?"
"..."
This Snake Spirit didn't seem very bright. If a red-haired woman had come, would she have needed to "infiltrate"? She probably would have stormed right in!
"No, it's a man, and his hair isn't red," Lyon replied, shaking his head slightly and trying to be as honest as possible.
"That man always looks drowsy, and he doesn't seem dangerous," Lyon added, shaking his head slightly.
"Not dangerous?" The Snake Spirit glanced at the little snake and scoffed. "If he's not dangerous, then there aren't many dangerous people in the entire Purification Bureau!
After hearing the foolish judgment of his bishop, the Snake Spirit, marked by black scales with white spots, narrowed its eyes and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, the 'not dangerous' man you mentioned is probably the Unlucky Dice King of the Virgo Division, known for single-handedly expelling True Gods, and his methods are extremely bizarre.
With so few agents in the Virgo Division, they manage to hold a position in the Twelve Zodiac Divisions. Aside from that red-haired woman, they rely on him and the woman locked up in the Emerald Jungle.
These two Level 1 agents are elites among elites, on par with the non-Zodiac Division heads of the Purification Bureau. If that 'not dangerous' man truly intends to deal with you, with your level of ability, you might not even know how you died!"
Having criticized Lyon's foolish judgment, the giant Snake Spirit pondered for a moment, then narrowed its eyes and asked, "What did the Dice King do? Just shop around the outskirts of the Assembly Hall?"
"He did buy a lot of things," Lyon admitted, his eyes flickering with guilt.
"Snake Spirit, I don't know how he did it, but he has so much money in his money bag that it seems endless. He bought up half the street. Shouldn't we do something to stop him?"
"Let him be."
The Snake Spirit winced, but still flicked its tail and sighed helplessly, "This guy might be here to take advantage. During the last gathering in the Kingdom of Saio, he managed to sneak in and bought a bunch of things with money from who knows where. This time... Hmm... Let me think."
Turning back to look at the sprawling Emerald Jungle stretching for dozens of li ahead, and the blood-red glows bursting within it, the Snake Spirit hesitated for a moment before speaking thoughtfully.
"The person sent by the Purification Bureau said that the red-haired woman from the Virgin Division wouldn't cause trouble. It seems he wasn't lying."
However, it was difficult to explain the situation. If the Dice King wasn't here to take advantage but was actually after this trapped woman, then there would be trouble... Oh, right, what's the situation at the Secret Shrine?"
"Everything is normal at the Secret Shrine."
Tang Mu, wearing the Performer Master Emblem, feigned calmness and lied, "Hearing that there's a chance to pay respects to your true form, the followers are going crazy to compete for those three spots. Before I came to report the situation, the final candidate has been decided, and all the offerings are piled up in the Secret Shrine."
"I see..."
After some hesitation, the Snake Spirit sighed, "You go back first. I'm still not sure what the Dice King is up to, and for safety, I shouldn't leave. Go and return all the offerings and tell them that the audience has been canceled."
"But..."
"What's this 'but'?"
Sighing with disappointment, the Snake Spirit glared, "Do you think I don't want the offerings? But the most important thing right now is dealing with this trapped Level 1 Purification Officer!
After grinding down her immortal body, my power will be significantly depleted. If that damn man has some sinister plan, I might not be his match! Stop wasting time, go back and handle the matter!"
"Yes, I'll return immediately!"
With some reluctance, the Snake Spirit glanced at Tang Mu, knowing that staying any longer might expose his failed seduction. Tang Mu bowed and retreated, releasing his tail from the statue and disappearing from the Snake Spirit's tail.
As soon as the connection with its soul was severed, the Snake Spirit's expression turned grim.
...
He actually returned the offerings... If I'm not mistaken, the Secret Shrine is probably done for. The intruder at the gathering likely set a trap, wanting to lure me back and finish me off!
For extra caution, it might be best to leave this place.
The Snake Spirit contemplated for a moment, glancing at the Emerald Jungle ahead. It hissed, extending its black and white tail and swirled it twice in the air towards the jungle.
With a strange ringing sound, the vast Emerald Jungle rapidly shrunk, transforming into a transparent green gem. Inside, a woman with her limbs bound by vine shackles suddenly opened her eyes, glaring at the gem from within.
"Don't glare. The Green Dream is a gift from my god specifically to deal with you. Even if the Dice King comes, he won't be able to free you."
Taunting the woman inside the gem, a hundred-meter-tall black snake suddenly opened its mouth, directly swallowing the Green Dream. It then located a layer between reality and the dream realm, slipping through the gap to escape before the Dice King could react.
But before it could get far, a massive apple, over seventy meters tall and composed entirely of mist, appeared in front, flickering between reality and illusion.
Immediately after, seventeen or eighteen giant roosters, for some inexplicable reason, pierced through the barrier between the dream realm and reality, attacking the apple's head. Their excited clucking filled the air as they feasted on the unexpected meal.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck-cluck-cluck!"
