Chapter 1010 Untitled
"What? Heaven Mountain and Abyss Hundred Hells are at war?"
After hearing what Director Taurus said, the red-haired director, who was grabbing the doll from his suitcase, suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in surprise:
"Sir Taurus, are you sure that it was Heaven Mountain that started it this time? It's not the demons that want to invade Heaven, but Heaven Mountain wants to attack those below?"
"I'm not sure... but it feels right."
After picking up a dozen humming little "building men" from the ground and putting them into the red-haired director's briefcase, Director Taurus said with a headache:
"As you know, in the past, the work of observing the anomalies in other planes was basically the job of Director Pisces, but he is now hanging under the Cliff of the End, so the current detection ability of the bureau is much worse than before.
Originally, even if Director Pisces was not there, the bureau had people monitoring Heaven Mountain and Abyss Hundred Prisons, but Director Cancer who was guarding the Abyss was transferred back because of the previous incident, resulting in no one in the Abyss from the bureau, and Director Capricorn who was guarding Heaven Mountain was also not active, so..."
So the bureau can only observe the situation remotely now and can't get first-hand intelligence?
After grabbing a doll that had created a miniature tower out of thin air and tried to dig it out of the suitcase, and putting it back into the box, the red-haired director suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but frowned and said:
"Mr. Taurus, Mr. Capricorn, they have been back to Mount Heaven for more than three months, right? If there is still no news..."
"Don't worry, they should be fine."
Understanding what the red-haired director meant, Director Taurus shook his head and said:
“It’s unlikely that Capricorn will kill everyone, but when it comes to hiding himself, we combined can’t compare to him. If Capricorn wants to, he can even erase the memory of others and disappear from everyone’s memory temporarily.
So even though Director Huang Dao and his gang were seriously injured in the world of the dead, with Capricorn leading them, even if they were really dragged into the war between Heaven Mountain and the Abyss Hells, nothing should go wrong. They should just be tripped up.
Let’s not talk about Capricorn for now…Olivia, I’m not worried about the safety of Capricorn and Director Huangdao right now. What I’m really worried about now is the reaction from the Abyss.”
After putting the last little builder into the suitcase and carefully closing the lid to prevent them from running out, Director Taurus said worriedly:
“The last time the angels and demons went to war, the Great Demon of Original Sin was betrayed and killed by the nine angels on the top of the mountain. His corpse brought the evil pus from the bottom of the abyss, completely polluting the Resurrection Pool and turning almost all the angels into lunatics.
So although the angels were the winners of the last war, they actually lost completely. Given the current situation of Heaven Mountain, the angels will definitely not be a match for the demons this time. And if the Abyss wins again..."
The Heaven Mountain is likely to fall completely, and the Resurrection Pool that can infinitely revive angels will probably be moved away by the demons and replaced with a new version that can infinitely revive demons.
After recalling the situation in the Abyss Hundred Hells, the red-haired director immediately understood what Director Taurus was worried about.
The demons were originally the strongest force in the fourteen planes, second only to the Cleansing Bureau. There were countless true god-level demons in the Abyss Hundred Hells, and the great demons who had mastered the original sin were definitely at the pillar god level.
Although the "high-end" combat power is slightly inferior to that of the Cleanup Bureau, the number of demons is really too large. The overall strength of the Abyss is far greater than that of the Cleanup Bureau. If they are allowed to occupy Mount Paradise, it will definitely not be a good thing for humans.
"Your Excellency Taurus."
After looking at the Taurus director who was hesitant to speak, the red-haired director blinked his eyes, tapped the lid of the [Building Corps] with his fingertips unconsciously, and said thoughtfully:
"You specifically told me this... You don't want me to tell Leon, do you?"
"..."
"How about letting me guess?"
Staring at the somewhat embarrassed Taurus Director, the red-haired director tentatively said:
"Just now, after I mentioned that Leon had learned the secret art of the Ophiuchus, you suddenly changed the subject and told me about Mount Heaven and the Abyss... So you want Leon to use the secret art of the Ophiuchus to disguise himself as a demon and go down to the Abyss to wreak havoc on the demons?"
"Um……"
Seeing that his plan had been guessed by the red-haired director, Director Taurus could only nod and admitted reluctantly:
“I know this is not a good idea, as Leon has just returned and we are asking him to go on another mission, but this time, only he can do it.
When facing the devil in hell, no one can hide their original sin, even me and Cancer are the same. No one can disguise themselves as a devil in front of the devil.
Only by mastering the secret art of the Ophiuchus and being able to reversely integrate into the demonic anomaly, can Leon perfectly disguise himself as a demon and safely approach the original sin demons without being aroused by the lust in his heart.
And Leon happened to have a group of anomalies that were split from great demons, so this matter was really suitable for him... Oh, wait for me."
After getting up and searching in his own workshop, Director Taurus came back with a small box and handed the box with the roaring sound coming out of it to the red-haired director.
"This is?"
"These are what Leon asked me to collect. The last two missing items in his set of demonic anomalies are here. Remember to give them to him for me."
"Ok."
After opening the box and looking inside, the red-haired director couldn't help but chuckle.
"After seeing this, he should be very happy~"
……
This is really... it really worries me to death...
Unable to help but sigh, Leon, with a worried look on his face, dispersed the [Pseudo-Illusion] power in his hand, and then, like rolling up a marshmallow, he pulled out a wisp of colorless new power from his heart, wrapped it around his finger, and handed it to William.
"What about this? Can you see this, too?"
“I can see it.”
After staring at Leon's fingertips that seemed to be entangled with something, William blinked his bright black eyes and said with a firm look:
"Although it's not quite the same as the previous one, it should be the same type of thing."
"What does it feel like? What do you think it is?"
"I think... like lake water?"
At Leon's request, after carefully examining the Heart Lake Power at his fingertips, William said uncertainly:
"I can't really explain it, but this thing you showed me feels like the ripples that appear on the surface of the water after throwing a stone into the lake... oh yeah, and it's beating like a heart."
"..."
Okay, no need to test.
Seeing his younger brother directly revealing the specific appearance of the [Heart Lake] power after just a casual glance, Leon couldn't help but close his eyes and waved his hand to disperse the Heart Lake power in his hand.
Even for the true God who possesses power, the power itself is still "invisible" and can only be perceived through one's own understanding. Only oneself and the third generation director who have looked directly at the source can clearly see the color and form of the power.
However, William is just an elementary school student, but he can observe the essence of power directly with his naked eyes just like himself and the third-generation director... So there is no need to test it anymore, William must be the "Number 3"!
"Big brother?"
Looking at Leon who seemed a little depressed, William raised his chubby little face and asked in confusion: "Is there something wrong with those things? Why do you seem unhappy after knowing that I can see them?"
"No... well... or a little bit, but not because of you."
Leon reached out and touched his eldest brother's little head, which was very soft to the touch. He hesitated for a moment, then asked in a gentle voice:
"William, can you answer a question for me? Don't tell lies. Just say what you think."
"Oh that's fine."
"Then the eldest brother asked."
Recalling what the blurry figure in the root room said, Leon couldn't help but take a deep breath and clenched his hands unconsciously.
According to the blurry figure, their race is born to face the root and see through the essence at a glance. They are born to be above all living things, so they instinctively want to rule everything.
Since William is most likely the "No. 3" mentioned by the blurry figure, would he also regard himself as a natural "ruler" like the blurry figure and believe that he should be above humans?
"William."
Leon pointed at the sheep horns emerging from the cufflinks with his fingertips, stared into William's eyes, and asked with some concern:
"Can you tell me, brother, why you want to unite all the kingdoms?"
Why do we have this ideal?
After hearing Leon's question, William couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, his delicate face suddenly wrinkled, and his dark eyes revealed a deep confusion, and then he shook his head and said:
"It seems like there's no reason... I just like it? I think it would be fun to do this?"
"That's it..."
Lyon hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then said:
"Then let me ask you this question in a different way... William, after you realize this dream, what do you want to do most?"
"..."
After hearing Leon's question, William couldn't help but look at him, then he sighed softly and reached out to pat his brother's thigh.
"Brother, please stop testing me."
"?!!"
As Leon was slightly startled, William put his hands behind his back and comforted him with a conscientious look on his face:
"Don't worry! I won't compete with you and sister-in-law. Even if I really unify the twelve kingdoms in the future, I will definitely not attack the kingdom. At that time, the kingdom will definitely still belong to you and sister-in-law."
"..."
"Brother, dreams are dreams, and reality is reality. I know the difference very well. Sister-in-law is so good to you and takes care of me, Sister Anna, and that person. How can I have the nerve to take her place?"
"..."
"Also, brother, aren't you a little too cautious?"
"what?"
As Leon looked a little nervous, William pointed at his face, then asked seriously with a stern face:
"I'm not even eight years old yet. What kind of dream is an eight-year-old's?"
"..."
"Don't kids my age basically do whatever they want? Today I want to be the best playwright, tomorrow I want to be the richest businessman, and the day after tomorrow I want to be the king... Isn't this normal?"
"..."
Just because I want to unify the world now doesn’t mean I will want to do the same next month. Maybe when I’m nine years old, I’ll suddenly want to do something else…Brother, aren’t you making a big fuss about me and my sister-in-law fighting for the throne?”
"..."
Looking at William who made a rational analysis and then made well-reasoned criticism of his elder brother, Lyon couldn't help but twitch his mouth, and then he found helplessly... he was right.
Apart from the fact that he is born with the ability to see the roots and is suspected to be a member of a mysterious race, Brother William is still a child of seven or eight years old. In a sense, it is indeed an exaggeration to "weigh" him with this kind of question.
"Okay, brother, you think too much."
Without explaining that he was not worried about him taking over the kingdom, Leon reached out and rubbed William's little head. He took a deep breath and asked, feeling a little amused:
"Then the last question is, what do you think of your classmates, friends, and teachers? In other words, if you are much better than them, do you think you should be the superior, and should 'stand' higher than them, above others?"
After asking this question, Leon looked William in the eyes seriously, prepared to correct his thoughts in advance.
If what the blurry figure said was true, then William might really have similar thoughts. Based on my understanding of him, if he had such thoughts, he would probably not hide them but directly admit them. Then...
"how is this possible?"
Looking at his elder brother who had been acting silly for some reason today, William couldn't help but frown and said:
"Even if I become a high-ranking person in the future, it will probably be because I have a sister who is a duke, a brother who is a prince, and a sister-in-law who is a queen. How much does it have to do with my own excellence?"
"..."
"Also, it's absolutely not okay to stand too high."
Looking at his eldest brother who was particularly worrying, William couldn't help but sigh, then he reached out and patted Leon's thigh again, reminding him earnestly:
"According to the experience I gained from reading the history of the kingdom last night, as a person in power, you must have a high vision, and you must see farther than the people you lead. But your people, on the other hand, cannot stand high. If they only look far away and not at their feet, they will definitely fall."
"..."
"Brother, just like the story you told me, becoming a king does not mean you will be supported by everyone, but only the one who is supported by everyone... or at least the most people can become king. How could you forget what you said? It's dangerous to be so out of touch with the people!"
"..."
Just pretend I didn’t say it… just pretend I didn’t say it, okay?
Seeing the look of hatred on the face of his elder brother William, Leon, who was speechless after being taught a lesson, was silent for a while, then he decisively reached out and tapped the table next to him, accurately grasping the biggest sore spot of his elder brother William.
"School starts the day after tomorrow, and you haven't finished your summer homework yet. How dare you stay up late to read extracurricular books?"
