Chapter 857: Eat Something Good
Chapter 857: Eat Something Good
Wait... Wasn't that just your attitude towards him?
Unprepared for the sudden betrayal of the third-generation director, the Incarnated Doe was caught off guard and struck by the large iron pot that was thrown at her.
Looking at the old man who had just cursed the little beast, but now calling him a precious apprentice and a proud disciple, the Incarnated Doe with a large iron pot hanging from her antlers suddenly became furious. She glared and shouted:
"You Iron Badger! You..."
"Who's the Iron Badger? There's only an iron pot, iron basin, and iron spoon here, no Iron Badger!"
"???"
You... Did you switch sides so quickly?
Seeing the third-generation director, who had turned against the Iron Badger and directly left the Butcher King Society, the Incarnated Doe was so angry that she trembled and screamed hoarsely:
"You were just saying that! You just called him a little beast! I heard it all!"
"Then you must have misheard."
"I didn't!"
"Then you misunderstood, or you misheard and misunderstood."
Facing thirty-nine True Gods, plus a Pillar God, and the immense temptation of possibly related rare materials, the value of reputation, style, ruin, and eternal infamy... These worthless things instantly vanished from the third-generation director's mind.
"You must have misheard. I didn't say beast, I said birth."
Under the gaze of the Incarnated Doe, who was about to burst with anger, the third-generation director stubbornly rephrased his words:
"The meaning of birth. It's like I regard that child as my own, almost like a real son! He brought me such good things this time, he must have felt my earnest expectations for him.
Oh hahaha, when I first met that child Lyon, I felt a special connection. Later, he quickly learned my Mind Craft style, and when he started forging anomalies with my pot, I immediately knew that he was the heir I had been waiting for!"
You're full of it!!! Don't think I don't know what you're up to! When you mentioned "good things" just now, your damn smirk had already reached your ears!!!
The Incarnated Doe was so furious at the third-generation director's astonishingly low moral standards that she felt like her insides were burning, but she had no choice but to grit her teeth and try to intimidate him.
"Iron Badger! Don't forget that you're also a member of the Butcher King Society! You used to give us information about the Purification Bureau! You're no longer..."
"Haha, the information I gave you was all old news. Those outdated intelligence reports were at least a thousand or eight hundred years old. Even if I tell you, what can you do? It can't be considered a betrayal of the Purification Bureau."
"But aren't you afraid that we..."
"What am I afraid of?"
The third-generation director chuckled:
"Am I afraid that you'll report me to the Purification Bureau, or that you'll intentionally leak my information?
You silly deer, don't forget that I signed your charter. I'm officially registered as an external member of the Butcher King Society. Although I can't reveal your plans to the Purification Bureau, if you want to leak my information..."
Hahaha, then I can only wish you good luck~"
"..."
"Alright! Get out! Scram!"
Turning back to his coffin, the third-generation director took out a bone broom covered in spider webs and pointed it at the Incarnated Doe, impatiently ordering:
"Don't kick with your hooves, you've damaged my floor. What if my disciple trips when he arrives? He rarely comes back, so I need to clean up properly. Don't hinder me while I clean! Scram! Did you hear me?"
"..."
Ahhhhhhhh!!!
...
"How is it?"
Seeing the deer's shadow appear beside the skeletal table, a True God wearing a mane mask quickly stood up and asked eagerly:
"What did the Iron Badger say? Did he agree to cooperate and ambush the God of Food?"
"..."
Looking at the expectation in the mane's eyes, the Incarnated Doe wearing the deer mask couldn't help but twitch her lips, and her expression became especially tense.
"Did you coordinate with the God of Food for our ambush?" As I was being chased away, that old hound was already sweeping with a broom, ready to welcome his beloved pet.
Looking at the doe's reaction, it was obvious that something had gone wrong. After receiving a silent confirmation from the doe, the members of the Slaughter King Society exchanged glances, the atmosphere turning cold as they realized the implications.
"I told you he wouldn't agree!" A woman with a seagull mask slammed her fist on the bone table, her voice filled with anger. "The Iron Badger may have joined us in name, but in reality, he doesn't even have a vested interest in our cause! When it comes to crucial matters, he will definitely side with the Purification Bureau!"
"But isn't this still an opportunity? If we don't set up an ambush in the Death Realm, do we have to continue storming the Watchtower Palace?"
"Even storming the Watchtower Palace is better than this! What if the Iron Badger risks getting killed by the law book just to inform the Purification Bureau?"
"How is that possible? First of all, he's so afraid of death, and with the binding power of the law book, he would be..."
"Alright, stop arguing!"
Interrupting the bickering among the members of the Slaughter King Society, the White Serpent, seated at the first position on the left of the long table, rubbed her forehead and spoke with a hint of powerlessness. "Since the third-generation director of the Purification Bureau didn't agree, without his cover, it's difficult for us to take down the God of Food under the protection of more than one director. Let's call off this attack plan."
"White Serpent, are you sure you don't want to try again?"
At this moment, the doe, who had received the flesh, couldn't help but speak up.
"Including me, there are already four Death Realm Sovereigns who have clearly sided with us in the Death Realm. There are still seven others with ambiguous attitudes, and they have the intention to cooperate with us. If we can bring them all over..."
"Don't even think about it. We won't be able to convince them."
White Serpent lowered her head and remained silent, while a certain newly appointed vice-president, who had taken the main seat in her place, clasped her hands in her sleeves and leaned back in her chair. She replied slowly, "We were in a favorable position and were about to break into the Watchtower Palace. Of course, the Death Realm wouldn't mind getting a share of the spoils. But now, we've lost over twenty members in one go, and the Death Realm will definitely become hesitant again.
So, forget about causing trouble. Instead of being sent to our deaths, it's better to stay with me and wait for the God of Food to die of old age. It's only a little over a hundred years, White Serpent. What do you think?"
"I..."
Looking at the magpie's slightly smug expression, White Serpent, who had escaped from the Sorceress Kingdom by avoiding disaster, couldn't help but close her eyes and then turn her head away in resignation. "I also agree with waiting for a while. Although we don't have to wait until the God of Food dies of old age, we can wait until the president and the other vice-presidents return from the Old Soil."
"No! We can't wait!" The doe, who had received the flesh, exclaimed.
"I contacted the other Death Realm Sovereigns. After finally resolving the issue with the Kingdom of Seo, the Purification Bureau must have their eyes on me now!"
"Then why don't you just run away?"
"I can run, but my White Bone Palace and Corpse Soil Black Forest are tied to the Death Realm. If I really run away, I'll lose my position!"
"But between losing your position and losing your life, you have to choose one... Well, maybe you don't even have to choose."
"Magpie, what do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is..."
Activating her ability, 【Avoidance of Disaster】, and sensing the "disastrous aura" on the doe, which was several times stronger than the Tale of Illusions she had encountered before, the magpie couldn't help but extend her arm and pat the doe's back sympathetically, offering her sincere advice.
"To be honest, considering what you might face in the future, I suggest you go directly to the Purification Bureau and surrender."
