Chapter 512: Guardians of the Group "Dehua"
Chapter 512: Guardians of the Group "Dehua"
Soon, the persistent Squirrel, like Night City, sent a message to the other Layer Guardians.
It wasn't until he confirmed that things were indeed as Night City had said, and that the NPCs of the Necropolis seemed to have independent thoughts and souls, that he finally believed that he and Night City had probably crossed over.
Moreover, just as his appearance and race had transformed into the "Lord of Death," Squirrel gradually felt that his original thinking patterns and racial concepts seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.
After assigning tasks to the guardians and letting them leave, Squirrel looked at the empty hall and finally felt a sense of panic. He turned to his only remaining close friend and said, "Night City, what should we do now? Something incredible has happened!
It seems we really have crossed over, and I've even become the 'Lord of Death.' What is going on here?"
As Squirrel was still frantically ranting in panic, the next moment a green glow enveloped his body, and the passive skill of the Lord of Death activated, instantly forcing him to calm down.
"Well, since we've really crossed over, there's nothing we can do. If we can't resist, we can only silently accept it.
Moreover, instead of panicking, we should thoroughly understand where we are and gather intelligence about this world, so we can better survive here."
While Night City and Squirrel were discussing in the hall, the guardians who had left were chatting along the way.
"That was truly amazing. As expected of the Supreme Sovereigns at the Apex."
At the forefront was Demigod, who was pondering the scene that had just transpired before the throne and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Hearing his exclamation, the older of the twin dark elves, Aurela, who was female but wore a white male suit, agreed, "Master Fifi's oppressive aura was truly overwhelming. Should we say it's befitting of a being at the pinnacle of all Supreme Sovereigns?"
"But Master Fifi is also a benevolent existence. Among all the Supreme Sovereigns who have left, only he and Lord Night City have remained."
The younger of the twin dark elves, Mare, who was male but wore a sailor uniform, immediately responded.
Aurela and Mare's creator was the Bubble Teapot, and this popular voice actor seemed to have intentionally designed them as such.
"No, no, no. Do you really think that the Supreme Sovereign who summoned us just wanted to show off his power?"
Hearing Aurela and Mare's words, Demiurge pushed up his glasses with his hand, a slight smile on his lips, and his eyes shone with wisdom.
"The Supreme Sovereigns were probably judging our loyalty based on our responses."
Cosecetes, the guardian of the fifth layer of the Necropolis, a two-and-a-half-meter-tall insect warrior with an ice-blue body, exhaled two streams of cold air as he spoke.
"There is some truth to that, but it's not the whole story. If it was just a test of our loyalty, why was Lord Night City also present?
And before that, Lord Night City had said those words to Naberale Gamma."
"For unknown reasons, the Necropolis originally had forty-two Supreme Sovereigns, but now only two remain: Master Fifi, at the apex of the Supreme Sovereigns, and the strongest, Lord Night City.
The other two Supreme Sovereigns were probably there to verify or explore something, right?"
Following Demiu Gusi's statement, the Guardian General, Yalbert, slowly emerged from behind the crowd. She is one of the few in the Necropolis who can match Demiurge's intellect, possessing perfect military prowess and administrative capabilities, which is why she serves as the overall manager of the entire Necropolis.
In the entire Necropolis, Yalbert holds the highest status, second only to the Supreme Sovereigns.
"So, Yalbert, do you know what the Supreme Sovereigns are trying to verify or explore?"
Dressed in a dark red evening gown, with a large bow tied on her head and a puffy skirt, the Vampire Ancestor Shatiya, who guards the first to third layers of the Necropolis, voiced the question on everyone's mind.
"Even though I serve by the throne, there are things I am unaware of.
The great Supreme Sovereigns are troubled, yet I am incapable of aiding them, which is truly my incompetence.
Although I'm uncertain about what those two Supreme Sovereigns wish to verify and explore, it likely relates to their previous conversations.
It might also involve the reason for the disappearance of other Supreme Sovereigns. I can only say that the thoughts of the Supreme Sovereigns are unfathomably profound, beyond our comprehension."
Hearing Yalbert's words, Demiu Gusi nodded in agreement. The previous conversation between Master Fifi and Lord Yecheng, including terms like 'Bug', was completely beyond their understanding.
Demiurge believed that this was the knowledge and wisdom unique to the Supreme Sovereigns, far beyond their reach.
"In any case, only these two Supreme Sovereigns remain in the Necropolis now.
We should do our utmost to serve them, and even the slightest threat or dissatisfaction they might experience is our responsibility!"
Demiurge and the others were unaware of the reason for the collective disappearance of the Supreme Sovereigns. Initially, Demiurge thought that the Sovereigns had chosen to leave on their own, but now it seemed there was more to the story.
If there truly existed a threat capable of forcing forty Supreme Sovereigns to leave, then the power of that entity was undoubtedly formidable.
In the face of such a threat, the Guardians should prioritize protecting the remaining two Supreme Sovereigns in the Necropolis from any harm! With forty fewer Supreme Sovereigns, the current combat strength of the Necropolis was undoubtedly halved, if not more.
Fortunately, the Supreme Sovereign at the Apex, the strongest magic caster, Master Fifi, and Lord Yecheng, the most powerful individual fighter capable of rivaling multiple Sovereigns, had both remained. Their situation wasn't as dire as it could have been.
As for the other side, Yecheng and Squirrel, who had just finished their discussion, were also unaware that their actions had inadvertently caused the Guardians to collectively "Demi-fy," even leading them to imagine a hostile force capable of threatening the Necropolis.
Sebastian, who had gone to scout outside the Necropolis, returned quickly with information that confirmed to Squirrel and Yecheng that they had indeed crossed over to another world.
Based on Yecheng's reminder, Squirrel agreed that intelligence gathering was crucial in an unfamiliar world. After assigning the Guardians the task of disguising as the Necropolis, Squirrel and Yecheng decided to venture out together to gather information.
