"Why don't you explain?"
[Cough cough, actually, this is for your own good. If I really put you into the real world, wouldn't you destroy it?] The system was very guilty. It alone, no, a system alone couldn't handle the host's anger!
Master, save me!
"For my own good?" Bullsh * t, who was this for? "Then why did you lie to me?"
[This … this is because if you knew that this was still a virtual world, you definitely wouldn't focus on completing the test. Instead, you would think about how to destroy the world.] Was it easy for them? Wasn't it because the host was too scary? You destroyed the world without saying anything.
[This was all master's idea.] The system started to shift the blame. [I was just following master's orders. I didn't know anything.]
"So, there was a script?"
[…] Host, you're not focusing on the right thing! [… Probably.]
It suddenly felt like it was going to lose contact with its master again.
No!
It didn't want to be a left behind system!
"Then you lied to me when you said that there was no way to exchange for items?" I knew that I couldn't believe a single word of this retard.
[… This, this, this is true. Zero and master have reached an agreement. I can't use items to help you, so I can't open the system store.]
The system felt wronged. What did it do? It was just carrying out a mission. Why was it always the one getting hurt in the end?
[Host, can you explain to me how you know?]
Shi Sheng seemed to be in a good mood. He actually answered the system's question. "I didn't believe it from the start."
She didn't believe that Caesar would dare to put her into the real world.
He might have the guts, but Zero might not.
Although she came as a soul, she had the space. She could also bring things from other worlds back. Zero wouldn't let such a big risk exist.
Most importantly, if she really went to the real world, it would be almost impossible for Zero to see the situation there. She knew the rules of space-time.
[Host, I'm curious. Why did you agree to master's request?] According to the host's personality, even if it was for Feng Ci, she would use more violent means. For example, she would capture Zero, then capture master and threaten him.
That would be in line with the host's character.
"Why should I tell you? You're not on my side." Shi Sheng coldly snorted.
The System was crying inside. If it could, could it betray him?!!!
[Why didn't you bring Shenxing?] Shen Xing was so useful, but the host didn't bring him here this time. There must be a trap.
"I'm not telling you. Take a guess."
[…] Host, you're asking for a beating!!
The system felt wronged and did not want to speak. It tried to send a message to Caesar, but the message kept popping up with failed messages. The system fiddled with it for a while but did not send a message. In the end, it could only give up.
Based on its previous experience, the System quickly prepared itself mentally and was ready to 'betray' its own master and temporarily seek refuge with its new master.
Who asked him to be a big shot now?
That's what you get for your cheap mouth!! Do you still have the guts to run your mouth!!
The first few times, it felt a little strange. Damn, that was just its host trying to get information out of it, but it didn't realize it at all. Master, have you not recharged my IQ for a long time?!
When the System began to suspect that something was wrong, Shi Sheng had already asked someone to clean up the place and brought Chen Bei to another room.
Chen Bei was silent from beginning to end.
"What are you thinking about?" Shi Sheng reached out and waved his hand in front of his eyes. "Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, come back to your senses."
Chen Bei subconsciously grabbed her hand and said in a doting tone that he was not familiar with, "Don't mess around."
After saying that, he was stunned. His gaze fell on her hand, and then he looked up at Shi Sheng. He looked very confused. What happened just now?
Why did he speak in that tone?
Shi Sheng circled his fingers and slightly tightened his grip. He tilted his head and asked, "What use do you have for the imperial jade seal?"
Chen Bei was still staring at her hand. After a while, he said, "The people of Xue Country control the entire royal family of Shu Country. My imperial mother is also in it. Only by taking back the imperial jade seal can my imperial mother be safe." Unfortunately, the imperial jade seal was destroyed by you.
Shi Sheng frowned slightly. "Now that one of the imperial jade seals has been destroyed, it's impossible for the people of Xue Country to open the road to Xue Country, right? So now, the people of Shu Country are useless to them. They will either let those people go or kill them. "
There were only two choices. There was nothing to guess.
"There's another way to open the road to Xue Country." Chen Bei said lightly.
"What?" Shi Sheng had a bad premonition.
This background setting was very suitable for the female lead … Damn it.
"The Holy Maiden of Xue Country. Every hundred years, a Holy Maiden will be born in Xue Country. Her blood can open up Xue Country."
Very good.
No matter how many settings there were, there was an 80% chance that blood and the Holy Maiden would not be missing.
And this Holy Maiden was 90% likely to be the female lead, 9% likely to be the evil female supporting character, and 5% of the last 9% likely to be a mistake. In fact, she was still the female lead. The last 1% likely to be the female lead's friend.
"How do you know so much?" Shi Sheng leaned over and looked straight into Chen Bei's eyes. "Are you really not from Xue Country?"
Chen Bei shook his head. He shook his head a little too much, and his lips brushed past Shi Sheng's cheek. Chen Bei was now very calm and allowed Shi Sheng to pounce on him.
"I once saw a handwritten letter that recorded the secret history of Xue Country."
"Including the use of the Imperial Jade Seal?"
Chen Bei sat up a little so that Shi Sheng would not fall down. He supported himself with one hand and tilted his head back. His gaze fell on the void. "Yes, there are many other things, such as the Art of Controlling Sound, the Art of Prophecy, the Art of Puppetry, the Art of Soul Transfer …"
Seeing Shi Sheng look at him strangely, Chen Bei hurriedly said, "I only learned the Art of Controlling Sound. This is the only one that doesn't require the bloodline of Xue Country to learn. The others can only be learned with the bloodline of Xue Country."
"Did you see anything similar to prophecy in the handwritten letter?"
"How do you know?"
Shi Sheng pulled the corners of his mouth into an unfathomable smile.
It's all a trick.
Of course I know.
Seeing that Shi Sheng did not say anything, Chen Bei pursed his lips and said, "On the last page of the handwritten letter, there is a row of words written in blood. It looks like it was written in a panic — a hundred years of sleep, waking up every night. All things are respected, a hundred beasts cry. The arrival of the Holy Maiden, the restoration of Xue Country. "
The literal meaning of this sentence was that after a hundred years of sleep, when a person was respected by all things in the world and a hundred beasts cried, it was the time for the Holy Maiden to descend. The Holy Maiden would lead them to restore Xue Country.
"But it has been more than a hundred years since Xue Country was destroyed, right?" It had to be … um, a few hundred years, right?
Could it be that there was no Holy Maiden during this period?!
Chen Bei shook his head. How could he know this? He was not from Xue Country.
