Chapter 79: Night Exploration Of Kliper Castle
Sampo took Xing, March 7th, and Bronya to the Lower City, while Meng Huaifeng and Welt chose to stay in the Upper City.
Bronya’s disappearance would surely attract Cocolia’s attention, and many people knew about Serval inviting Bronya, so to avoid trouble, Serval, Meng Huaifeng, and Welt temporarily hid in an empty house in the Realm Splitting erosion area.
Night gradually fell, and the atmosphere in Kliper Castle was extremely oppressive, with suffocating low pressure permeating the air.
“Haven’t found Bronya yet? Belobog is only so big. It’s one thing not to find those nine wanted criminals, but not even finding Bronya? You’re all a bunch of useless trash! Send more manpower!” Cocolia was flying into a rage.
“Supreme Guardian, we can’t send more manpower! The forces guarding the defensive line are already extremely weak. If we pull any more, there will be vulnerabilities. If Realm Splitting Creatures attack the city, Belobog will be in peril! In fact, the current situation is already extremely dangerous!” Gepard always obeyed the Supreme Guardian’s orders, but even he couldn’t help standing up to oppose now.
“Gepard Landau, it’s because of your sister that Bronya went out alone, leading to her current disappearance. If something happens to Bronya, the Supreme Guardian’s heir, your Landau family bears undeniable responsibility!” Cocolia looked at Gepard chillingly.
Gepard lowered his head in shame: “Sorry, but Serval, she is also missing now.”
“It must be those invaders who did it. Find them for me. If you can’t find them in the city districts, go search the Realm Splitting area! Execute the order!” Cocolia said.
“Yes!” Gepard said through gritted teeth. The Realm Splitting area was extremely dangerous; he wasn’t afraid, but for ordinary Silvermane Guards, it was too dangerous.
Teams of Silvermane Guards burst into the Realm Splitting area, smashing open doors and searching every room.
The huge commotion alerted countless Realm Splitting Creatures, which swarmed toward the Silvermane Guards.
Atop a high building, four figures quietly watched the Guards’ actions as Welt distorted the view to hide their figures.
“Cocolia is too crazy. Does she know how many casualties this will cause?” Serval’s eyes seemed to blaze with fire.
“She won’t care about that. Perhaps this is what she wants—a rare excuse to openly let the Silvermane Guards suffer losses.” Meng Huaifeng said.
“Should we call Bronya back? Only she can oppose Cocolia’s orders and make these Guards withdraw.” Serval said.
“No need. Let her continue to see reality clearly. With me here, nothing will happen.” Welt said steadily.
Welt lightly tapped his cane on the ground, and an invisible ripple spread out, with gravity precisely enveloping all the Realm Splitting Creatures, slowing their speed.
At the same time, the bullets in the Guards’ guns were silently modified by Welt using the Power of the Herrscher, making their lethality even stronger.
Whenever someone was in danger, the gravity on the Realm Splitting Creatures would greatly increase, giving the Guards time to react.
In another room, Silver Wolf watched the scene from afar and said softly: “Tch, as expected of the Nameless, a bunch of good people forcibly increasing their own difficulty.”
“And that’s exactly why they become the savior in Elio’s prophecy.” Kafka chimed in.
“Isn’t it that good people don’t live long, but scourges last a thousand years?”
“So in the worst ending, they all died.”
“You said both the straight talk and the opposite.” Silver Wolf curled her lips disdainfully, lowered her head to continue playing games. A Xing surprisingly wasn’t online, disappointing.
As the number of injured Silvermane Guards increased, the remaining Guards finally had to withdraw from the Realm Splitting area, leaving only Gepard’s team.
Gepard breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, although many were injured, no one sacrificed. The Realm Splitting Creatures encountered today seemed weaker than usual—not only slower, but also much less resilient to attacks.
Amber Lord bless.
The lights in Kliper Castle stayed on all night; Cocolia hadn’t rested for two days and two nights.
The Silvermane Guards worked in shifts, patrolling all of Belobog non-stop, while Gepard personally led a team of Guard elites to search the Realm Splitting area.
The Silvermane Guards’ major operation scared many people, who didn’t dare go out, making all of Belobog eerily quiet.
Meng Huaifeng teleported with Welt and Serval to the Everfrost Land. Fortunately, no other creatures saw their teleportation, and the Bliss Effect granted by Aha didn’t trigger.
They planned to try finding the Stellar Core’s location directly.
After a day, the three found the Creation Engine buried under snow. They thought the Stellar Core would be nearby, but after searching around, they found nothing.
Meng Huaifeng quietly tried the Art of Heavenly Inquiry; the Stellar Core was nearby, and it might be easy to search out.
Unfortunately, Silver Wolf stopped him in time again.
Silver Wolf had the script, knowing exactly when and where to stop him. Even if he used it quietly, it didn’t work; he had no temper left.
At night, Meng Huaifeng and the others returned to Belobog still empty-handed.
From afar, they saw the lights in Kliper Castle finally go out, clearly Cocolia couldn’t hold on and had finally rested.
Meng Huaifeng’s heart stirred. Previously, they hadn’t gone directly to Cocolia to avoid causing chaos, but now she had inexplicably put them on wanted lists, and chaos was already caused, so being a bit more aggressive wouldn’t matter.
Meng Huaifeng sneaked into Kliper Castle and was about to enter Cocolia’s bedroom when two figures blocked him.
“Listen to me, go back. You’ve already looked for Cocolia, but unfortunately, Cocolia doesn’t know the Stellar Core’s exact location either.” Kafka said softly and gently, her voice containing a strange magic.
Meng Huaifeng’s mind blurred, and he turned to leave.
However, knowing the Stellar Core Hunters were on Yarilo VI and that Kafka excelled at the Word Spirit Technique, how could Meng Huaifeng not have considered countermeasures?
The moment Meng Huaifeng was detected as controlled, a urgent “ding-a-ling-ling” alarm rang in his mind.
The one controlled by the Word Spirit Technique was Meng Huaifeng, not the Mobile Phone Martial Spirit. As everyone knew, the mobile phone had artificial intelligence, and Meng Huaifeng had set it up long ago: if he was controlled, the phone would automatically try to release the control.
The urgent alarm sound, boosted by Imaginary Energy, jolted Meng Huaifeng’s dazed consciousness awake.
“Sigh, the Word Spirit Technique really doesn’t work.” Kafka sighed in disappointment.
“Your Word Spirit Technique can only control living beings, not mobile phones or computers.” Silver Wolf said matter-of-factly.
“I can clearly control Intelligent Machine lives.” Kafka said wistfully.
“You said it yourself, living beings. Intelligent Machine lives are living beings too.” Silver Wolf shrugged.
“If you had hacked his Mobile Phone Artifact at the same time earlier, wouldn’t it have succeeded?”
