Chapter 772: The Spy?
Chapter 772: The Spy?
"I should be fine here," the Deer Mask's shadow said in response to the White Snake Masked Man's inquiry.
"The Sun Corpse Ritual in the Thousand Sails Sea Kingdom has been fully unleashed. Once the fog above the Moon Veil Sea, where the King Ship is anchored, disperses, the royal family of the Sao Kingdom will undoubtedly become undead. This is an irreversible fact."
"Oh?" The White Snake Masked Man's eyes lit up with interest at this point. "Why is that? Do you have a way to deal with him?"
"I can't say I have a method, but I have found some weaknesses we can exploit." The Deer Mask narrowed his eyes. "According to the current intelligence, Lyon possesses three types of immortality. Two of them are relatively ordinary and derived from a powerful demon close to god-level. The third and most troublesome one, which even exempts True God abilities, has an unknown origin."
"As one of the rulers of the Realm of Death, I have some insights into dealing with immortality. As long as he doesn't continuously activate the third and most unique immortality, I have a chance to break his immortality and forcibly drag him into the Realm of Death, preventing him from causing any disruption."
"I see." The White Snake Masked Man nodded in understanding. "If you're confident, Deer, why don't we take the initiative and lure him to the Thousand Sails Sea Kingdom, using the Sun Corpse Ritual to finish him off?"
"Well... it's best not to do that." The Deer Mask's shadow hesitated for a moment, then spoke with difficulty. "If he dies in the Sun Corpse Ritual, he will definitely go to the Realm of Death. Lyon has the power he gained from devouring the Guardian of Death after its demise. If he dies before the Guardian of Death's Dog revives, he will almost certainly become the new Guardian of Death God."
"Once that happens, he can block the souls of the royal family members who die by closing the gate of the Realm of Death. If these souls, intercepted by him, fall into the hands of the Purification Bureau, they might have a chance to be resurrected, which would be unfavorable for us."
"..."
Indeed, it would be unwise to let him go to the Thousand Sails Sea Kingdom.
The White Snake Masked Man nodded in agreement and turned his gaze to the woman wearing the Black Cat Mask beside him. "In that case, it's best to find a way to transfer him... Black Cat, can you lure him to the Maiden Kingdom? Do you have a way to deal with him?"
"I can give it a try... but the success rate is extremely low." The woman with the Black Cat Mask sighed and spoke with a hint of helplessness. "You know my abilities. The Food God from the Purification Bureau is precisely the type I'm not good at dealing with. If he comes to the Maiden Kingdom, I'll have to rely on luck and take direct action."
"We can't rely solely on luck for such an important plan." The White Snake Masked Man paused for a moment, then turned to the Rook, who was wallowing in self-pity and regret. "Rook, why don't you go to the Maiden Kingdom to support Black Cat's operation?"
"Huh?" The Rook was taken aback and pointed at himself, his eyes filled with astonishment. "You want me to go to the Maiden Kingdom to help Black Cat deal with Lyon?"
"Yes." The White Snake Masked Man nodded slightly. "You're currently in the mortal world, and you've just acquired Pillar God-level power. You were only narrowly defeated by the combined efforts of Lyon and the Aquarius Marquis. You're the best candidate... is there a problem?"
"..."
The Rook's mind was in turmoil as he felt the rapid activation of his Adversity Avoidance, warning him of impending danger. How could they put him in the same situation with Lyon after he had made it a truth that the Rook would always avoid Lyon, engraving it on the Pillar of the World? Was his truth a fake?
...
"Since Rook finds it challenging, let's forget about it."
(End of Chapter)After observing the strange expression on Crow's face, Black Cat couldn't help but furrow her brows. She then took the initiative to speak up, "I just find him difficult to deal with, but it's not like I have zero chance. As long as I deploy my mist..."
"No! I'll go!"
Interrupting Black Cat, Crow silently recited in her mind, 'The Pillar God is immortal, so I definitely won't be killed.' She then steeled herself and said, "Actually, I have a score to settle with him! This time, I'll definitely redeem myself!"
Excellent!
Hearing Crow's words, the White Snake sitting in the main position couldn't help but laugh. With a satisfied look, he said, "Since Honored Crow is willing to provide support, it's simply perfect. Black Cat's authority is suitable for this mission, and with the help of this newly ascended Pillar God, I believe you will definitely accomplish your goal!"
"..."
Damn... I'm not even sure myself, but why do you seem more confident than me?
Looking at the 'beaming' White Snake, Crow's cheeks twitched, and instead of saying anything, she nodded in agreement, putting on a determined pose.
Although her 'Truth' was quite useless, it was still a truth inscribed on the Pillar of the World, and she had to verify it to see if there was a problem. As for Leon...
I can't beat him, but can't I run?
"Then it's settled."
Seeing no objections from the group, the White Snake leaned back in his chair, waved his hand with a smile, and said, "These are the matters I wanted to discuss. If there's nothing else to talk about, you can all leave... Oh, and Black Cat, stay for a moment."
Me?
Blinking in confusion, Black Cat, who had already stood up, sat back down.
After the others left, leaving only the two of them, the White Snake stood up and sat across from her. With his hands crossed and propped under his chin, he stared at her with a serious expression and said, "Black Cat, I want you to keep an eye on Crow."
?!?!?!
"I know you two are close, but this Pillar God's appearance is too suspicious, and he refuses to reveal his Name of Truth. I suspect that Crow has betrayed us... He might even have been Lyon's person from the start."
Looking at Black Cat's astonished expression, the White Snake sighed and began to present his evidence.
"Actually, I've always suspected that there might be a spy from the Purification Bureau among us, and Crow... Well, let's just say that his every move is highly suspicious.
The last operation involving the Ironclad Princess was planned by him, but it was coincidentally foiled by Lyon. Later, he teamed up with the Aquarius Director, yet they still failed to kill the princess. Not a single person in the entire royal capital died.
But the strange thing is, despite his mission's utter failure, he managed to survive a near-death experience at the hands of the Crimson Hair Maiden and Lyon, suffering only a minor soul injury from the Fear Authority. Does that make sense?"
"..."
"And this time, you know how meticulous Snow Miser is. He spent a full ten years preparing for the Northern Kingdom's affairs, but Crow only needed three days to succeed. The originally smooth-sailing Snow Miser was brutally murdered by the Food God.
Crow, who had previously failed at everything, not only successfully released the Earthline Descendants this time but also managed to escape the battle between the five Zodiac Bureau Chiefs. On top of that, he even used this opportunity to ascend to the rank of Pillar God! Despite his apparent success, the mission itself was a complete disaster. No one from the Aquarius Division died, the Eishoto royalty remained untouched, and the Earthline Descendants seemed to have gone quiet... Black Cat, don't you find this odd?"
"It's a bit... off."
"It's very off!"
Recalling Crow's awkward behavior, the White Snake narrowed his eyes with a vexed expression and said, "I'm now almost certain that he's the hidden spy within our Carnage King Society! His ascension to Pillar God was likely a reward from them!
Damn it! We've been deceived by his performance all this time. The real Crow is not some useless failure but a traitor hiding among us! If I'm not mistaken, the reason Lyon has always been able to thwart our plans and stop our actions is that Crow has been informing him!"
