Chapter 858: The Doe's Path and the Study of Secret Techniques
"You want me to surrender to the Purification Bureau? Damn it! Do you know what you're saying?"
The newly appointed Vice President of the Butcher King Society had thoroughly enraged the Doe with his attitude. The Doe, who had received the flesh, couldn't help but abruptly shake off his arm and asked angrily:
"So, what do you mean? Are you planning to give up the plan entirely and not care at all?"
"It's not that I don't care, it's that I really can't do anything..."
After escaping death several times from Ang Zhai, the Magpie's Qi cultivation had obviously improved significantly. Without getting angry after being shaken off, he calmly pointed to the empty seat next to the long table and explained with a calm face:
"Look at how many chairs are empty. Even among those who have returned, how many have lost their physical bodies and only their souls remain? In the current situation, how can we fight the Netherworld and the Purification Bureau?
Moreover, there's also the God of Gluttony... Counting me and the White Serpent, we mobilized three Pillar Deity-level and thirty-nine True Deity-level members to deal with the God of Gluttony. Look at how many of us are left now?"
"That's because we were ambushed!"
Hearing this, the Doe, who had received the flesh, couldn't help but angrily say:
"The God of Gluttony hasn't even reached the True Deity level yet. He's not as strong as you say! If it weren't for the dual suppression of the Watchtower Palace and the Bedtime Story, just forty True Deities would have been enough to overwhelm him!"
"Hehe, when I dealt with him in the Northern Kingdom, the Snow Beast and the Earthline Descendants thought the same way."
Looking at the Doe, who was still deluded, the Magpie couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. Then, with a disdainful look, he said:
"Although the Earthline Descendants have a single ability, they are not lacking in True Deity or even Pillar Deity-level members. What happened later? The Snow Beast was eaten alive in front of me, and the Earthline Descendants were smashed to death. They managed to survive only by surrendering as a whole tribe and becoming dogs for the Purification Bureau!
So, although it seems that the Sorceress Kingdom lost this time because of the Bedtime Story, what do you think would have happened if the Bedtime Story hadn't been suppressing the God of Gluttony, allowing him to act freely?"
"..."
"Alright, let's end it here for today!"
After a reasonable and well-argued analysis, the Doe, who had been angered, calmed down after hearing the explanation. Sensing the extremely strong 'Ang Flavor' on his body, the Magpie couldn't help but lean back uncomfortably. Then, frowning, he said:
"If there's nothing else to say, let's end the meeting! Also, stay a little further away from me. Don't let that scent get on me."
"What scent?"
"The scent of impending death."
"..."
Useless! Pus-filled! Soft-boiled! Coward!
Looking at the group around the long table, who were all deeply convinced, their eyes filled with fear and dread, the Doe, who had received the flesh, was so angry that... he just got angry.
With this stupid Vice President Magpie, unless a Pillar Deity returns immediately, there's no hope for the Butcher King Society...
Looking at the group of obvious cowards who were clearly terrified by the God of Gluttony, even lacking the courage to face him, the Doe, who had received the flesh, had nothing to say. He turned and left with a sullen face, returning to his original body, and then left the White Bone Palace, heading deeper into the Netherworld.
Without the help of the Butcher King Society, it would be impossible to withstand the pressure of the Purification Bureau, let alone plan against the God of Gluttony, with just the Doe, the Mountain Patrol, and the Excavation Worm. So, at this moment, they must recruit members at all costs and find a way to bring in the other Netherworld Sovereigns as well!
...
"I saw death... an unprecedented level of death!"
After her hands felt like they were being electrocuted and sprang off the crystal ball, Queen Cat, facing Leon's puzzled gaze, covered her heart, which was beating rapidly, and explained with lingering fear:
"Leon, I can't tell you more about the future, but if you go to the Netherworld, it will definitely bring about a catastrophe! A very terrifying one!"
A catastrophe?
Lyon furrowed his brows at the question, pondering for a moment before retorting, "Can you be more specific about this disaster? Is it directed at me, the living, or the dead realm?"
"Well..."
Caught off-guard by Lyon's inquiry, Queen Cat hesitated, then instinctively reached out to touch the crystal ball again. But before her hand could make contact, the human-sized crystal ball emitted a crisp crack and split into two right there.
"..."
Staring at the cracked crystal ball, Queen Cat's eyes widened in disbelief. She sat cross-legged opposite Lyon at the small table, sighing as she rose from the soft couch, "I'll go get a new one."
"No, don't bother!"
Grabbing Lyon's sleeve and pulling him back, Queen Cat shook her head, her expression complex. "This was the last 'True Deity' level crystal ball in the warehouse. The rest are of inferior quality and can't bear the weight of such a future. You won't be able to see anything even if you bring them over."
Lyon, upon hearing this, had no choice but to sit back down. He then asked with a hint of dissatisfaction, "So, after looking into my future over a hundred times, you only figured out that I'll bring disaster, and nothing else useful?"
"Aside from the disaster, if you go to the dead realm, you'll also stray."
"..."
Could we not bring up the topic of infidelity?
Lyon couldn't help but roll his eyes at the confident Queen Cat. "Can you focus on something more serious? And your prophetic skills are lacking! The former Great Witch King, without ever meeting me, could see numerous futures of mine and even put them into crystal balls for others to view. Yet here, you can't offer a single helpful word?"
"That's not the same!" Queen Cat, her abilities as a maiden questioned, grew anxious. "The visions my mother put into the crystal balls were all 'possible' scenarios, not 'definite' ones. And by the time you see them, they've already become the 'past,' making them easier to handle! I could do the same if I were in her place!
Besides, when my mother made those prophecies, you were just a regular person, barely stronger than a Tier 3 Purifier. Now, you're not only a step away from True Deity status but also the Aquarius Director of the Purification Bureau. The slightest thought from you could alter the future of the entire world. How can the difficulty be the same?"
"Fine..."
Lyon reluctantly accepted Queen Cat's explanation. He picked up a small crystal ball, the size of a fist, from the side and placed it on the table, then urged, "If you don't understand, don't force it. Let's continue with the maiden's secret technique. I have to return to the Virgin District Bureau, so finish teaching me quickly!"
"..."
It's not that I don't understand; it's that the implications for you are too significant. I can see the future, but I can't speak about it. If it were someone more ordinary, I could tell you what socks they'll wear ten years from now.
Queen Cat, unable to hold back, rolled her eyes at Lyon. She placed her hand on his back, sighing in exasperation, "Focus your attention, follow my guidance, and channel your will into the crystal ball in front of you. Imagine it as your third eye... not that eye!"
