Chapter 954 - 25: Greetings from Earth
The gray-haired middle-aged man hid under the eaves, writing furiously, his script reaching the final line as he placed the period:
"That’s all."
Whoosh, bang!
A bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the clear sky, shattering Severston’s tendril instantly, causing him to squint his eyes.
"The ability to interfere with fate—there’s another expert?"
Fortunately, the tendril was composed of life force and non-conductive. Were it not for the hundreds of millions volts of natural high-voltage electricity, he would have faced the fate of having his account canceled.
"I can’t let you delve deeper; the council’s plan has just begun."
From afar, the gray-haired middle-aged man watched the battlefield, chuckling softly as he began to write again:
"Although the ambush was unsuccessful, it genuinely startled the approaching party. The alert visitors cautiously looked this way, and the martial artist in the lead asked first: ’Who are you?’."
Li Aozi took a step forward, casting an odd glance at the two visitors:
"Are you all secret councilors?"
"Oh? This guy’s fate autonomy is strong, defying my script."
The gray-haired man was somewhat surprised and continued to write:
"Although the martial artist knew their origins, his teammates were still in the dark, so the frail doctor took advantage of the standoff, bluntly asking: ’Why attack us?’ "
"They’re here to stop us from defeating the Judgment Mech Cavalry."
Severston pulled out three enhancement potions and injected them into himself without hesitation:
"Looks like there’s also a secret person within the Judgment Mech Cavalry—they want to consume this planet."
The gray-haired man tilted his head, rubbing his chin:
"How odd? It’s quite strange... This guy’s guidance is even more difficult than the martial artist’s. Though they’re all mortals, their divinity is pretty strong?"
He shook his head:
"Well, I’ll try that demure-looking young girl—"
Bang!
Before the gray-haired man finished speaking, the shelter he was in was immediately flattened by sword qi. He awkwardly turned his head, a pitch-black blade resting against his neck.
"You—"
Caramel Snail’s eyes almost spit fire, shouting angrily:
"Who exactly are you?"
"Oh dear, the ’Writer’ uncle got caught."
The ’Gourmet’ Chen Xiaochen flipped backward several times, landing beside the ’Astrologer’:
"Kauna, aren’t you worried about Victor?"
"The ’Writer’ isn’t that delicate. Anyone who toys with fate isn’t likely to be weak."
The ’Astrologer’ Kauna raised a hand, gently smoothing his claws. His looks were a blend of male and female, combining male sternness and rationality with female elegance and charm, his ’Charm’ attributes clearly surpassing ordinary people.
Kauna looked at Li Aozi and the others:
"However, it’s truly rare for someone on this planet to recognize us. You locals have quite some skills."
"The ’Gourmet’, the ’Astrologer’, the ’Writer’... three councilors indeed."
Severston whistled, saying calmly:
"Judging by their attire, they probably just came out of the matrix not long ago—finding new vessels on Azure Star and then reincarnated here, right?"
"Reincarnated?" Li Aozi glanced at Severston.
"Ah, you probably don’t remember the past events."
Severston pulled Li Aozi into a private chat, saying:
"The ’Secret Society’ is unlike other ’societies’. This entity embodies plunder, parasitism, and stealth, likely due to devouring many of its kind. Because of this, Gaia can collect all the past councilors and, once an outside one perishes, unleash a fully-grown previous one."
"(Mandarin) Oh? Seems you’re quite the society expert."
Chen Xiaochen rested her chin on her hand. No one understood her first sentence as it wasn’t in English, then she switched to English:
"Though we possess past combat experience and knowledge, our strength still depends on the vessel’s compatibility. Compared to us councilors, perhaps the ’White Knight’ may exert more suppression on you."
"The ’White Knight’? That shark trash? I beat him with two punches."
Li Aozi said.
"Death? An amusing term."
Kauna smiled slightly, his red diamond earrings gently swaying, emitting a hypnotic sound as he continued:
"You mortals will probably never understand; for us society citizens, no matter how many times we die, as long as Mother Gaia remembers us, we will eternally return from the collective memory of history and people."
"Eternal immortality, no wonder you lost to such foes, Leoz."
Severston said in private chat:
"But you managed to single-handedly kill the White Knight? For real? That guy had the most terrifying destructive force of the secret. If sharpened over seven or eight times, the entire cosmos would be split apart."
"Sorry, I took him out in two punches, can’t even recall his name well."
Li Aozi glanced at the mini-map while Caramel Snail was still entangled with the adversary.
That fate-altering ’Writer’ is really troublesome; just from that clear sky thunderbolt, it was evident he possessed a strong ability to rewrite common sense.
And my true body is still contesting with Lord Entropy, maintaining Azure Star’s daylight. Nephis and others continue fighting, unable to summon help.
Only a few players could reach here, with the main firepower Cumin Powder having their resurrection mechanism directly pierced.
