Chapter 73: Look What I Found!
Everyone knew who Welt was referring to, and they all turned to look at Sampo in unison.
“I… I’m innocent, old Sampo! I really didn’t lie! I can’t even say it!” Sampo wanted to cry but had no tears.
“Is the blessing not in effect now? So he can tell lies?” A Xing asked.
Schrödinger’s blessing might be in effect—he’s telling the truth—or it might not be, and he’s lying.
Sampo couldn’t prove it at all, so he looked around, wanting to find a pillar to bang his head against to prove his innocence.
Wronged, so wronged. I’ve never been this wronged before, old Sampo, and I can’t even argue.
God of Joy, you really deserve to die!
“Forget it, let’s assume he’s telling the truth for now.” Meng Huaifeng said: “So, do we enter the city openly or sneak in quietly?”
“Heavens above, earth below, I’m telling the truth!” Sampo cried out to the sky.
“If we enter the city openly, we’re very likely to be taken to see Cocolia. I personally suggest we don’t contact Cocolia first, but secretly contact Bronya instead.” Welt said solemnly.
“Huh? Why?” March 7th asked, puzzled.
“Cocolia might have issues, but… I have no evidence, just a feeling.” Welt hesitated. He felt he shouldn’t bring impressions from the original world into this one, but he really couldn’t help it!
Calling you Cocolia alone is nothing, but you have a daughter named Bronya, and there’s a Seele underground. With these three names together, you still dare say you have no issues?
“Uncle Yang is amazing. He knows there’s a problem with her before even meeting.” A Xing admired endlessly.
Welt’s mouth twitched slightly. He felt this kid’s words were a bit sarcastic.
“So, we sneak into the city quietly?” Meng Huaifeng said.
“With such high walls and guards everywhere, how do we sneak in?” March 7th looked at the magnificent walls, worried.
“I have teleportation…”
“Stop! I don’t want to pose with you all, it’s too silly!” March 7th interrupted.
“If the landing spot has no one, we won’t pose.” Meng Huaifeng persuaded.
“What if there are people?”
“So what if there are? The pose Huai Feng designed is super cool. We can make a shocking entrance for them!” A Xing looked excited.
“I’m thin-skinned.” March 7th still refused.
Meng Huaifeng and the Star General turned their gazes to Welt.
“If you let me have the male lead’s pose, I’ll support using teleportation.” Welt said seriously.
Meng Huaifeng looked away. Impossible, no negotiation.
“Brother Sampo, it’s up to you. Lead the way.” Meng Huaifeng said.
“Alright, heroes, follow me. Rats have rat paths, cats have cat paths. I’ve gone in and out countless times without ever being discovered. I know six secret paths—six, you know?” Sampo instinctively wanted to talk slick, but under the blessing where everyone must tell the truth, he accidentally spilled all his secrets.
Realizing it, Sampo was extremely regretful and didn’t dare speak carelessly anymore. He honestly led the way.
The group entered a realm splitting and came out another exit, already inside the city in the area eroded by realm splitting.
Carefully avoiding the Silvermane Guards on alert at the edge of the realm splitting, they finally entered the city proper.
“Bronya the Commander should be on patrol right now. You probably won’t find her if you’re looking.” Sampo said.
“Then we wander around first and ask ordinary people for information?” Meng Huaifeng suggested.
After everyone agreed, they split up and strolled around the city.
……
“Got it. That guy’s method is kinda interesting, but the usage is too crude. I could casually edit similar software to his degree.” Silver Wolf said proudly.
“As expected of the Great Love Wolf Venerable, so impressive.” Kafka teased.
Silver Wolf’s little face immediately fell (): “Don’t say that rotten joke, it’s not funny at all.”
“How could it not be funny? A Xing came up with it for you.” Kafka covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
Silver Wolf rolled her eyes. Kafka’s gaze and faint smile at the corner of her mouth made Silver Wolf extremely uncomfortable.
Ignoring Kafka’s attempts to stop her, Silver Wolf left the room, found a corner, and used aether editing to create a trash can that blended seamlessly with the surroundings, then silently squatted inside it.
Autistic, socially dead, doesn’t want to talk.
If I have sinned, just kill me directly instead of letting me socially die.
Think about it, me, Silver Wolf of the Stellar Core Hunters, with a 5.1 billion bounty, renowned throughout the universe, suddenly turned into Great Love Wolf Venerable in everyone’s eyes. How can I show my face in front of others from now on?
Silver Wolf could almost see it: every time she appeared somewhere, people pointing at her and shouting, “Look, it’s Great Love Wolf Venerable!”
I want to die.
Silver Wolf awkwardly scraped her foot on the ground. She felt she suddenly understood Blade’s mood.
No, counterattack, must counterattack!
She couldn’t wait for the script to end to go to the Herta Space Station and cause trouble. She wanted revenge now!
A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. I, Silver Wolf, take revenge from morning till night!
Silver Wolf frantically edited code inside the trash can. She was going to make a video too, promote it across the universe, and let Herta taste the flavor of ruined reputation!
Suddenly, Silver Wolf felt a brightness above her head, then a pair of hands descended from above, grabbed her bunny-ear hair clip, and lifted her up.
Silver Wolf and A Xing stared at each other.
“Wow! I pulled an SSR! I opened a trash can and got a Silver Wolf! Who says there’s no treasure in trash cans? Step forward! Speak!” A Xing shouted in ecstatic joy, clamping Silver Wolf with one hand and running off with her long legs.
“Damn it! A Xing, let me go! Let go!” Silver Wolf struggled hard in A Xing’s armpit.
“No way! I still need to show March 7th, Huai Feng, and Uncle Yang!” A Xing said firmly.
She wanted to show everyone her find, prove to them, tell them—not to look down on trash cans, respect trash cans!
Silver Wolf’s scalp went numb. You’re trying to kill me, make me socially die!
I’ve already died once, absolutely no next time!
Silver Wolf unhesitatingly used her destiny power, turned into quantum state, disappeared from A Xing’s hand, and recondensed at a distant intersection.
Silver Wolf glared viciously at A Xing, then turned and ran.
Beating a kid is impossible. Facing a brat, better dodge if possible.
But…
Hmph, tonight no matter what game you play, watch yourself. I’ll definitely match against you and accept my Silver Wolf’s sanction!
A Xing stared blankly at her empty armpit, on the verge of tears.
“Wah, my SSR…” A Xing wailed in infinite sadness.
“What SSR?” Meng Huaifeng saw A Xing looking all teary from afar and came over to ask.
“I picked up a Silver Wolf from a trash can, and she ran away!” A Xing cried.
“Trash can? Picked up? Silver Wolf? The kind with four feet on the ground?” Meng Huaifeng thought it sounded ridiculous. Silver Wolf wouldn’t be in a trash can, could it be… someone threw away a silver puppy?
A Xing recalled the Great Love Wolf Venerable’s pose and nodded heavily: “Yeah, four feet on the ground, tongue lolling out.”
“I’ll help you look. It’s just a little wolf dog, couldn’t have gone far.”
“Not a little wolf dog, it’s the Wolf King!”
“Alright, alright, it’s the Wolf King.”
Side story finished. I merged the two side story chapters. Those interested who haven’t seen them can go back and check; they’re all in side story 1. No interest? Ignore it, doesn’t affect the main story.
