There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 752 - 642: Themis Is Here_3

Chapter 752: Chapter 642: Themis Is Here_3

It felt like being bound and troubled, as if I was confined within a vast yet cramped universe, completely unable to stretch my body.

As I was thinking this, Xu Shuo raised his hand and summoned the “Staff of the Baseless” from the Player’s Handbook.

My abilities clearly hadn’t been restricted.

But I still felt uneasy all over.

This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.

I didn’t know if this strangeness was something every ordinary player felt in the ‘Defense Line’, or if it was solely aimed at me as a “BUG”.

In the end, Xu Shuo didn’t ask this question.

...

After Shi brought him over, he was left to one side and ignored, while Shi pulled up a system interface in the void and started checking the data on it.

Curious, Xu Shuo leaned over to examine the fluctuating lines on the interface.

“What’s this?” he asked.

“Abyss invasion record.”

Shi, who was working seriously within the ‘Defense Line’, seemed much colder, with golden hair drifting in the void and dazzling with divine radiance, emanating an indifferent and cool aura.

However, after subconsciously responding to Xu Shuo’s query, Shi’s finger, sliding across the screen, suddenly stopped.

Then he turned his dopey head and asked, “Eh? You can see this panel?”

Xu Shuo was also startled: “…”

Damn, so ordinary players can’t see it?

Since Themis had agreed to bring him here without much hesitation and didn’t seem to avoid him at all when checking the system, Xu Shuo hadn’t thought in that direction for the time being.

So, it was Themis’s nerve being too thick that inadvertently made others let down their guard as well.

Having accidentally revealed his BUG nature, Xu Shuo quickly regained his composure, even feeling somewhat despairingly indifferent—after all, Themis didn’t seem like an unreasonable Judge.

If Themis hadn’t been easy to talk to, Xu Shuo wouldn’t have taken the opportunity to ask to come to the ‘Defense Line’ to broaden his knowledge.

As the saying goes, with confidence comes assertiveness.

So he simply nodded and said, “Yeah, I can see it. So, is there an explanation for this?”

Shi scratched his head and said, “This is the Order System of the Tower of Judgment, it can be called up to check the degree of Abyss erosion in this world.”

“Oh.”

Xu Shuo responded and continued to ask, “So, how should I read this data?”

Shi: “…Do you want to know?”

Xu Shuo: “Should I not know?”

Shi: “…”

Shi suddenly hesitated.

Because the senior Judges hadn’t taught him how to handle such things, and there were no relevant study materials in the Tower of Judgment, he didn’t know whether he could disclose things about the Order System.

It was said that the Tower of Judgment was very selective in choosing players, and until now, only he had been chosen, becoming an unprecedented Judge.

Logically speaking, if Xu Shuo could also see the Order System, perhaps he had the Potential to be chosen by the Tower of Judgment?

Otherwise, it really couldn’t be explained.

Could it be an authority granted by the Sixth Palace?

On second thought, that didn’t seem impossible, did it?

Should I still tell him?

Rarely caught in a brainstorm, Shi became solemn, his visage grave and his aura exuding an untouchable holiness.

Therefore, whether it was the impression from his appearance or the sensation from his aura — when facing Themis, you would believe anything he said as being truthful, no matter what.

He was upright and just, a person of fairness and righteousness.

Xu Shuo detected Themis’s dilemma, but he didn’t intend to insincerely say something like “If it’s difficult for you, then forget it.”

Because if he said it to others, they might feign compliance and then tell the truth.

But if he said it to Themis,

Themis might take it seriously and then never continue!

So, Xu Shuo wanted to see what decision he would make.
