Chapter 442: Chapter 341: Accompanying Chun in Prison (Part 2)

Remia frowned: "Is this how you guard your prisoners?"

Sariel’s heart sank.

Everyone was startled: "Oh, we’ll give him some kebabs to eat right away."

Remia said: "Forget it, I have some pastries with me. Also, these handcuffs and shackles are unnecessary, take them off."

Though unwilling, Sariel saved some of his Privilege Points.

Remia added: "You can close the cell door now."

Sariel was taken aback: "Close it?"

Remia said: "It won’t affect the transmission, and it can prevent accidental interference."

Sariel seemed to understand what "accidental interference" referred to, at least considering the rascals present. But having his Saintess cohabitate with this fly was extremely uncomfortable.

Remia continued: "Mr. Sage, the Evil God might take action any time, you should be busy with your own matters."

Sariel felt a bit helpless: "Understood!"

Sariel indeed had important matters to attend to. Merfolk can’t detect underground Evil Gods, nor perform Alternate Space transfers. This ensured that the attack’s initiative was entirely on Alpha’s side. As soon as the Evil God appeared in the city’s bustling areas, it could cause massive damage. Even if Remia immediately transported Chun in front of it, there would still be some "aggro" path in between, causing additional losses in the bustling area along the route.

This loss must be minimized as much as possible!

Sariel instantly considered Silverlight Village, where China’s Azure Sky Battle Team was stationed.

If Alpha could first appear at Silverlight Village, it could not only conquer their village but also avoid losses in the Main City—a win-win situation!

As for how to prompt Alpha to deal with this village, there was indeed a method. By utilizing the Curry People’s tendency to stick together and their large presence on Pipe Rat media, first inciting a conflict between Curry players and Silverlight Village, provoking them into a major loss, then hyping it across the web to build aggro and force Alpha to act!

Moreover, a Two-star Battle Team even requested my intervention, which means I’ve already planned action. Whether they can seize the opportunity, that’s their own concern.

Overall, the plot had taken shape immediately, and personnel were arranged to begin operations right away.

...

The Underground Divine Tomb of Silver City.

Alpha and Beta had been infiltrating here for two days already, with the two Evil God Crystal Cores from Black Iron City’s Divine Tomb as a foundation, absorbing Death Qi was now incredibly convenient and swift.

During these two days, Silver City’s Mermaid Guardian God was either forming some council in Black Iron City or going out to fight pirates, completely oblivious to this place. Alpha almost confirmed that the Mermaid indeed lacked the capability to monitor the Underground Divine Tomb.

In essence, the most perilous period was over, the Necromancer Evil God had reformed. Alpha could continue spending time refining Death Qi in the Divine Tomb, further consolidating the Crystal Core and forging a Divine Format. The optimal scenario was to combine the two Crystal Cores into one; rather than dividing the Divine Tomb’s resources to create two unformed Evil Gods, it was better to concentrate resources entirely to build one True God.

Since only one god was being created, Beta had no necessity to stay in the Divine Tomb, instead, he could stealthily scout Silver City.

Beta brought news: "There’s uproar in the community group, it seems the 73rd-ranked Shiva God was group-slayed by China’s Silverlight Village players! Pipe Rat is full of curses, suggesting that if the 12th Tata War God is involved, he could wipe out their village."

Alpha chuckled in surprise: "Never mind if Tata has the capability, he at least doesn’t have the 10,000 Mining Coins to travel back and forth. We don’t need to focus on the friction between these players. Our aim is to control this world."

Beta had more news: "In Gem City’s black market, a Holy Artifact-level Mining Pickaxe caused a commotion, it seems like equipment from the previous generation game Genesis!"

Alpha was shocked: "How is that possible?"

"Was it Chun? Chun has been to Gem City, and time-reversed into the Black Iron City construction era, it’s feasible he could procure an artifact like this."

Alpha shuddered: "But the sequence is off, he went to Gem City first, then time-reversed, and then got captured, he wouldn’t have the chance."

Beta sighed: "It’s incomprehensible! But thankfully he was captured."

Alpha laughed: "It’s a pity, it also cost us a shield."

Just then, Alpha received a dark web invite code on his phone.

"What’s Tata this fool doing?"

Connecting to the dark web, Alpha grumbled impatiently: "Don’t contact me unless it’s important."

Tata said: "The Nordic Alliance wants to capture Silverlight Village, they want to leverage my power and opened a gamble that I’d win 1 million euros if I can destroy Silverlight Village."

"So?"

"I thought, if I win, I’ll share 500,000 with you, sir!"

Alpha was annoyed: "I don’t even use banking systems anymore, I’m surviving entirely on virtual currency."

"800,000 then! They ridiculed me in such an ugly manner! My pride cannot tolerate it! Even if you don’t use banking, I can help you save it up..."

Alpha retorted irritably: "Let me check what exactly they’re mocking..."

...

AM.

Chun had finished reading two geography books. Though written as fictional geography textbooks by AI, every detail of terrain features and vegetation characteristics was remarkably well-illustrated, potentially serving as a geology textbook. As long as it wasn’t math, he was still a top student.

The Ugly Emperor seemed completely enamored, entirely lost in the world of Flowing Water Geometry.

Chun felt he ought to snap out of it and continue exchanging books, so he asked Hua to give him a nudge.

Despite that, the Ugly Emperor didn’t snap out of it, causing some trouble. Eventually, they couldn’t always let him use the newspaper to conceal Hua’s communications, right?

Chun recalled the textbook’s description of a geographical plant named Fluorescent Flower, which grows in mining areas and possesses mineral characteristics to glow. Why not let the Ugly Emperor express interest in this plant and keep a pot of flowers in hand, just like the striking image of the assassin in "This Killer Is Not So Cold!" Hua could simply hide in the pot and glow while writing.

After shaking a couple more times, the Ugly Emperor finally snapped out of it: "Alright, book exchange!"

Chun reminded him: "This time, go to the botany section and look for related material on the Fluorescent Flower. If possible, get some seeds and cultivate one."

The Ugly Emperor didn’t waste a word: "Understood."

As the Ugly Emperor returned to the library hall to check the botany section, Michael suddenly appeared.

Chun even felt like he was specifically seeking the Ugly Emperor. Is it still surveillance?

The Ugly Emperor immediately went up to greet: "Greetings, Mr. Sage!"

Michael smiled: "How’s the studying going?"

The Ugly Emperor expressed sentimentally: "I’ve never felt such joy in life! I love it here~"

Michael smiled: "Starting botany studies now?"

The Ugly Emperor said: "Yes, I discovered from this book that the Fluorescent Flower is an extremely important mineral flower, crucial for mining indications, so I came to explore and study."

Michael laughed: "Exploring? I can take you to see the botanical gardens, interested?"

The Ugly Emperor earnestly sought knowledge: "Very interested."

Holy Shit! Michael really knows how to serve someone when they’re in need!

Michael smiled with satisfaction: "Also, talking about mining, I have a book by Ms. Celia, the Astrology Book. It’s extremely challenging for me, and I’ll give it to you."

With that, he took out the Astrology Book glowing with Divine Artifact brilliance.

Holy Shit! Chun was genuinely taken aback. Believing it’s incomprehensible, sure. Even Earth Mother called it nonsensical. But giving it away due to that—

The Ugly Emperor was stunned into repeatedly waving his hands: "No, it’s too precious! I absolutely cannot accept it."

Michael laughed: "Then borrow it!"

Trembling, the Ugly Emperor accepted: "Thank you very much, sir."

Michael smiled: "Let’s go to the botanical gardens. It also helps clear the mind, otherwise, staying in the study constantly affects inspiration."

At this moment, these two Divine Artifact textbooks inspired Chun greatly.

According to the Earth Mother, although both books were written by her, upgrading them to Divine Artifacts had to do with longtime reader insights. Barbara the old lady’s insights and the Empire astrologer’s insights were clearly different, so the books were actually distinct!

Could comparing these two books to seek commonality and contrasts lead to a breakthrough?
