Chapter 819 How to break the situation
Chapter 819 How to break the situation
Faced with the temptation of the "truth", the captain of the guard of the Great Witch Court finally couldn't hold back and signed his name on the application for membership of the Woolen Ball Society.
Safe~
Feeling that his disposable target had been increased by "+1" again, the evil prince who had successfully "turned the tables" on the captain of the Grand Wizard Court Guard nodded with satisfaction, and then he abided by the agreement and spoke out the truth of the matter.
"I wanted to catch her, but it wasn't the right time; she wanted to be caught by me, but she was a little cowardly."
"????"
I can understand every word you say when they are separated, but why is it so confusing when you put them together?
Confused? It's okay to be confused! I only promised to tell you the truth, but I didn't promise to make you understand~
Smiling at the still confused captain of the guard, Leon did not explain. Instead, he put away the newly acquired indenture, turned around and walked back to his original position, ready to continue searching for the next prey.
After seeing him cheat another laborer and look very satisfied, the cat witch who was waiting on the roadside finally couldn't help but asked:
"Your Excellency, the people you have dragged into the Yarn Ball Club are all elites from various clubs, but in terms of real strength, most of them are not even as good as a third-level cleaner. What's the point of doing this?"
"Of course it makes sense."
Smiling at the confused Cat Witch, Leon asked back:
"Do you feel that the constraints on you have been slightly relieved?"
"?"
After hearing Leon's question, the Cat Witch was slightly startled. Then she felt her own situation as he said. Then she was surprised to find that the constraints on her from the "Bedtime Story" seemed to have been weakened a little.
Although this level of weakening is far from enough to break free from control, and is even difficult to detect without careful perception, I have indeed become a lot "freer" than before, and can even say some words that go against my role.
“This is one of the reasons why I keep recruiting people.”
Before the Cat Witch could ask further questions, Leon took the initiative to explain:
"I have almost figured out the rules of [Bedtime Story]. Although its effect is extremely powerful, it also has many restrictions, especially on the 'total amount' of Lyon value."
"Total amount?"
"It is the total 'Leon Value' of all the targets that are pulled into the story."
After explaining the meaning of "total amount", Leon narrowed his eyes and said:
“The Pisces Branch was also stationed in the Secret City before. Given the hostility of the Slaughter King Society towards our Cleansing Bureau, if there is a chance to wipe out the Pisces Branch, they will definitely not let it go.
However, they did not include the Pisces Branch in the scope of [Bedtime Story] and take the opportunity to eliminate the entire Pisces Branch. Instead, they watched the Pisces Branch evacuate. The reason can only be that they can't do it. [Bedtime Story] must have some limitations, and it is difficult to capture so many targets at the same time. "
“Also, although the scope of this [Bedtime Story] is the entire Mystic City, the number of people actually involved in the Bedtime Story is not as many as it seems.
The vast majority of people are just bystanders who have nothing to do with the story. The only ones who have truly entered the [Bedtime Story] and are bound by it are you, me, and that fake princess, as well as some people and forces who cannot be avoided in the "storyline", such as..."
"For example, my Yarn Ball Club!" Upon hearing this, the Cat Witch's expression slightly changed, as if she suddenly understood something, and she said with a look of enlightenment:
"No wonder they want to deal with the Yarn Ball Society! They are not afraid that I will borrow the power of the Yarn Ball Society, but they are afraid that I will drag everyone in the Yarn Ball Society into the story!"
"That's right, I discovered the problem from this point as well."
Seeing the cat witch who understood everything at once, Leon could not help but nod in approval. He then reached out and patted the thick stack of indentures in the cart, and continued to explain with a smile:
"More than half of the members you selected for the Yarn Ball Association are elites from the 17 major associations. Although they are basically not good at fighting and may not even be able to beat a third-level cleaner, their combat effectiveness can be completely ignored.
However, as they have been studying various mysterious powers for many years, their own Leon values are not low, at least at the level of a second-level cleaner. The best among them can even reach the threshold of a first-level cleaner. The total Leon value added up is definitely not small.
Although the "Bedtime Story" created by Wu Youzhishu has the ability to disrupt order and turn falsehood into reality, it is still a false story after all. The greater the gap between the story it creates and reality, and the more and stronger people are affected by the "Bedtime Story", the greater the power consumed.
It just so happens that your Yarn Ball Society has dozens or even hundreds of 'cleaners', which together are almost equivalent to another Pisces branch. Wu Youzhishu can only control the story nodes and the general direction, but cannot control the complete story, so it is difficult to exclude the entire Yarn Ball Society.
So, to be on the safe side, he chose to strike first and made up a story about a great wizard king being assassinated, hoping to bring down your Yarn Ball Society, so that when you put up a last-ditch resistance, you wouldn't bring these people into the plot of the "Bedtime Story" and add extra burden to him."
"I understand!"
When the Cat Witch heard this, she had completely understood Leon's plan. She blinked her big eyes and said happily:
"You're trying to get people to join my Yarn Ball Club just to expand the scope of [Bedtime Stories]! All the way to Wu... Wu..."
Although the constraints from the "Bedtime Story" on her body had been diluted a lot by the new members of the Yarn Ball Club who had signed the indenture, they were still not completely solved. The Cat Witch tried several times but failed to say the full name of Wu You Zhi Shu. Then she changed the way she said:
"Expand it until the storyteller can no longer bear it! Even if he holds the truth that cannot be violated, it takes strength to drive the truth. Even if it cannot completely free us from the shackles, it can distribute the strength of the shackles!"
"Yes."
Looking at the cat witch who had understood his idea, Leon couldn't help but smile, and then he started to make arrangements:
“What we need to do next is to continue to stuff people into your Yarn Ball Club. The more people we stuff into it, the weaker the restraints on you and me will be, and the stronger the power we can mobilize.
When our strength is restored to a certain level, we can kidnap the presidents of the 17 major associations, force all the members to sign their fingerprints one by one, and then control them to charge into the Great Witch Court, kidnap the incompetent Great Witch King, force your mother to abdicate, and then you can be the Witch King and I will be...
Um... sorry, I just said I was used to it when I was handing out flyers."
After noticing the rather awkward expression on the Cat Witch's face, Leon quickly restrained the evil look on his face and corrected himself with a serious face:
“It’s not about forcing, it’s about inviting. We can ask His Majesty the Great Wizard King to issue an order to have all the people with Leon points in the Secret City and even the entire Wizard Country come to press their fingerprints and drag them all into the story.
By that time, even if Wu Youzhishu's [Bedtime Story] could still be maintained, the binding effect would be multiplied countless times and would be completely non-existent. In addition..."
When he said this, Leon paused for a moment, then asked curiously:
"I actually really want to know, since the truth cannot be violated, then when the pillar god who laid down the truth can no longer afford the consumption of using his own truth, will he be beaten to death by his own truth?"
