After Wu Ci’s death, the world entered the Spirit-Taming Era, teetering on the brink of apocalypse.
Evil gods ruling over the heavens, a sunless earth, corrupted beings infused with demonic e...
Lord Arrogant, the brothers unanimously support you to be the Speaker!
"Who are you talking to?" Eliza suppressed her panic.
Wu Ci turned around and said with a smile, "You are talking about the Seven Sins Council, Miss Eliza."
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
The Council of Seven Sins, a notorious terrorist organization, would be better off if the huge amount of money owed to it fell into the hands of the Sky Group, the Wandering Cult, or the Special Management Bureau's Interrogation Department than falling into their hands!
They are just a bunch of mad dogs, complete psychopaths and fanatics, without any rationality or bottom line. You cannot communicate with them at all. Even if you just meet them, those crazy guys will never let you off easily!
Black Cat was obviously a little scared. He didn't know that Wu Ci's original body was hiding the identity of Ao Wang. After Wu Ci came, he hid very well because of caution. So Black Cat only knew that Wu Ci had disguised himself as Ao Wang this time to go to Tianji City to complete the mission of stabilizing the mountains and rivers.
Black Cat had not expected to run into someone from the Seven Sins Council while in disguise, but in his understanding, Wu Ci was always confident and never did anything without preparation. He was used to following Wu Ci without thinking at all, because Wu Ci would arrange everything properly.
He can just follow along and do whatever Wu Ci tells him to do. In the end, he will definitely achieve Wu Ci's goal.
So Black Cat thought about it, grabbed Wuci's clothes, and suddenly felt confident. He laughed at Eliza who was shaking with fear, "Hahaha! You've run into the real boss! The one standing in front of you is the arrogant man you mentioned, your direct superior!"
To be honest, this kind of behavior is a bit like taking pleasure in other people's misfortune.
However, Wu Ci would not force the black cat to learn some necessary etiquette between people. After all, this kind of rudeness was not too excessive and it was not directed at him.
Black Cat was not even a child that he could exercise guardianship over. Wu Ci did not deny Black Cat's statement, but just smiled at Eliza, "Miss Eliza, what are you thinking about?"
Eliza, who had not yet recovered from the name of the notorious terrorist organization "The Council of Seven Sins", felt as if the sky was falling when she heard the witch [Pride], the person she was scammed by, suddenly calling her name.
If she were one of those corset-wearing noble ladies, she would have fainted at just the right moment, sniffing salts in the servant's arms!
Unfortunately, she was not. She was just a game designer whose family ran a game company. As an ordinary working class, fainting did not give her a reason to leave the scene, nor could it save the lives of the innocent passengers behind her.
Godspeed, Dexter, please protect her from harm. It would be great if the "Pride" in front of her could communicate... Wait, it seems a bit extreme to say that the Seven Sins Council are mad dogs that cannot communicate. This "Pride" seems to be able to really communicate?
Eliza was confused for a moment and thought painfully: Since we can communicate... then don't be nervous, don't be nervous!
The funny and embarrassing scenes are just the beginning of the special impression that the heroines of otome games leave on each other! Admit your mistakes! Admit your mistakes quickly! She can do it! As a game master and a mature game designer, she will definitely, definitely try to save everyone's lives!
Eliza gritted her teeth and prepared herself mentally, the result of which was that she managed to force out a smile at the witch's words that was uglier than crying.
"Sir, I said I was joking just now, do you believe me?"
"So, the carriage you are in is full of engineers, physicists, mechanics and the like?" Wu Ci asked her without any basis for the question.
It's over. We can't communicate after all. It's like he doesn't understand me at all... What kind of jumpy and inexplicable questions are these? Eliza thought in despair.
Wu Ci looked at her reaction and laughed happily. Knowing that these lambs with weak psychological endurance should not be teased, he gently touched her head and said, "The temperature in the carriage has begun to drop. My dear Miss Eliza, you should understand that the frost is coming. It is not safe to stay here any longer."
He added softly, "Tell the passengers behind you to move to this freight car and close the gate. The passenger car you are riding in is no longer suitable for you to survive. The cold air has already entered with the infected bodies."
"What?" Eliza screamed in disbelief. "You mean? You want to let us go?"
"Of course. After all, you are my direct subordinate, Miss Eliza. I am ready to take you all back."
Wu Ci Si didn't care how much this sentence shocked Eliza and the innocent passengers. She turned around and said to Black Cat, "Disconnect the camera above and close the gate. Then directly tow this truck carriage away, along with the cargo. We are still short of some people."
"No! Wait! You're taking us to the Seven Sins Council?!"
Wu Ci turned around and looked at her, smiling gently and calmly, "This is not coercion, Miss Eliza. I am very open-minded. You can also choose to die with everyone else."
Eliza was speechless, silently pushing the people who had not yet reacted into the truck compartment.
As Wu Ci and Black Cat left, the surveillance camera above the truck compartment was broken and the gate was lowered.
People avoided the bodies they left behind in fear.
Everyone was worried and terrified about their current situation, but no one cried or vented their emotions, for fear of attracting the evil spirits to infect them, or being heard by the witch words and the black cat who had returned to play tricks on them.
Eliza was silent for a while, then squatted down, trying to drag the body of the exorcist Alai to the corner, at least to prevent the body of such a good man from lying on the ground and being accidentally stepped over by others while walking.
However, she suddenly discovered something.
——The neck of the spiritualist Alai was cut in half by a kitchen knife, but it is actually healing slowly!
An idea quickly flashed through Eliza's mind, but she didn't catch it until someone in the crowd spoke up, "It seems that the arrogance of the Seven Sins Council just now is not that difficult to communicate?"
Eliza looked at Ale's gradually healing body, then looked at the camera that was destroyed before Wu Ci left, and caught the thought that flashed through her mind again: Was the young man before pretending to be arrogant?
He specifically looked at the camera and said those threatening words to her, which must have been a performance for the Seven Sins Council on the other side. He also destroyed the camera and secretly rescued Alai who was killed by him, and found a reason to keep all of them alive.
That was it, it must be so. After all, the heroic spirit of that young man was Chu Ci! The Chu Ci in the legend!
This is an unquestionable question! If the young spiritualist just now was not a good person, how could he successfully form a contract with [Chu Ci]?
[Chu Ci] He is a saint who is willing to sacrifice everything for an uprising, endure all the pain alone, and die for the world!
His morality was well-known throughout the world, even before he became a hero. Everyone knew it!
Eliza, who didn't know that [Chu Ci] was also performed by Wu Ci, immediately figured it out. The heavy stone in her heart fell to the ground, and she said to everyone happily, "Don't worry, everyone, it was just a performance. The boy is a good man, he will save us!"
The carriage was quiet for a while, and then someone spoke up, "I knew it. Another Heroic Spirit has already confirmed that his Heroic Spirit is [Chu Ci]. How can a Spirit Master who is compatible with [Chu Ci] be a bad guy?"
"Besides, he seems to be easy to talk to. Even when playing a villain, he is gentle and polite. Will his undercover identity be exposed when he goes to find those crazy dogs of the Seven Sins Council? I am a little worried about him..."
People started talking in low voices, and the low tension finally disappeared.
On the other side, Wu Ci put on his helmet again and led the black cat through the passenger compartment that was breached by the evil spirit-infected creatures.
The cold wind formed convection at the windows on both sides. Chu Ci led the way by reciting Tian Chi Jing, and the black cat followed by holding Wu Ci's clothes.
"Why don't they attack us, Brother A-Chen?"
Black Cat looked at the demonic bodies that were staring at him but didn't dare to come forward. "Even if [Chu Ci] had the Heavenly Starve Sutra, it couldn't be so shocking, right? He hasn't even awakened yet."
"These are all things controlled by the Council of Seven Sins, and they are coming for me. Let's go talk to the conductor." Wu Ci said.
Wu Ci was right. No matter what the reason was, he had to talk to the members of the Seven Sins Council who controlled these evil-infected bodies.
He had just roughly guessed from Chu Wanshu's words and the performance of these evil-infected bodies that this was the work of the Council of Seven Sins.
Of course, all of this was due to the identity that Zhen Shanhe arranged for him. Zhen Shanhe deliberately wanted him to die!
Look at this identity, disguised as Pride and escorted to Sky City. It sounds fine, but how does the Seven Sins Council see it?
The council member in charge of bringing the savior to the world, Pride, has been missing for so long along with all the resources to summon the savior. The savior that the Council of Seven Sins paid so much to prepare to summon is nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, news comes out that Pride has been captured by the Sky Group and sent to Sky City for trial.
With such a suspicious matter, the Seven Sins Council would definitely send someone to find Wu Ci to find out the situation, and if they found any problems, they would kill him directly. No... maybe the Seven Sins Council did not intend to let a useless council member like him who might have betrayed or was captured by the Sky Group because of his incompetence live!
These demon-infected bodies are the evidence! Wu Ci had no doubt that if he showed even the slightest flaw, these creatures would rush over and tear him to pieces!
He must talk to the people sent by the Council of Seven Sins and try to see if [preaching] can solve this problem.
Besides that, he had other issues that he needed to discuss with the visitors from the Seven Sins.
Earlier, Wu Ci analyzed that the evil god worshipped by the Seven Sins Council was Ying Yuan Ji Xing Tian Zun. After communicating with Chu Wanshu, he suddenly realized that Ying Yuan Ji Xing Tian Zun must have some relationship with him 20 years ago, some... relationship that he didn't know.
Most importantly, the psychic trains that can travel in the wilderness are extremely expensive, rare in number, and each one is non-replicable. They are all assets of the Sky Group.
The vengeful capitalist Zhen Shanhe could do whatever he could to cause trouble for Wu Ci and kill him, but Wu Ci had to protect the family's property.
After all, although Wu Ci was not the one who robbed the goods on the surface, Zhen Shanhe must have known what happened behind the scenes. He was just too lazy to pursue the matter because of such a small loss.
But if Wu Ci himself is on the train, and the train is damaged by the evil spirits of the Seven Sins Council, or even becomes unusable, Zhen Shanhe will definitely kill him!
Throwing him into the torture chamber is already a light punishment! The capitalist Zhen Shanhe will definitely squeeze all the value out of Wu Ci, and then use Wu Ci's most despicable methods to insult and torture him!
Since Zhen Shanhe remembered everything about his previous life, including the time when he was the public clown of the entire Dark Star, he must know what he was afraid of!
Wu Ci recalled his experience of being thrown into prison and tortured, which was broadcast live to the entire Dark Star. He began to lose his mind and could not bear it any longer when he thought of the prison guards who had already beaten him and were now pinching his chin and saying rude and obscene words in his ear according to the requirements of the live broadcast barrage.
The key point is, this guy Zhen Shanhe would really do such a thing regardless of the Tianzun standing behind him! Wu Ci has no doubt about the truth of this matter!
After all, it was just to humiliate him, not to kill him directly.
To be honest, if this situation really happened, Wu Ci would rather die.
He really couldn't stand those dirty words that insulted people with sexual connotations. Even if anything was done to him, it would be better than this. He really, really couldn't imagine how a well-educated person could say such things.
Whenever Wu Ci recalled his past memories, he would feel a long-lost anger and feel that his barely stable and rational mind was in danger.
No, he had to quickly tell the mad dogs from the Seven Sins Council not to touch the train, otherwise he would probably go crazy too, and it would be difficult to stop if he went crazy.
So, quickly, do a simple deduction.
Since the people sent by the Council of Seven Sins were able to prevent these evil-infected entities from attacking him for the time being based on his movements, they must be watching him somewhere.
For example... a train control room with full surveillance.
Wu Ci heard the train conductor calmly tell all passengers not to panic on the radio when the magic-infected creatures attacked the train. And the train seemed to fight the magic-infected creatures very fiercely, but in fact, they did not even use the psychic weapons they were equipped with, only conventional weapons.
When Jianshi calmed down and thought about this, the black cat seemed to sense Wuci's displeasure through his helmet, and deliberately pulled Wuci's words at an inappropriate time, interrupting his emotions and asking, "Is the train conductor a member of the Seven Sins Council?"
Wu Ci tried his best to maintain his good temper and good manners, "At least he was replaced by someone from the Seven Sins Council."
"…Then, won't the Seven Sins Council recognize that you are a fake?"
"I'll try my best," Wu Ci said.
Black Cat had mysterious confidence in him, and said admiringly, "Brother Aci, you are being modest again. This time, you must have made arrangements. Let's go, let's go. We can rob the goods and leave quickly. I have already thought of how to arrange those people... The engineers will plan the various areas of the subway station for us; the mechanics will make some small gadgets such as trap maintenance to facilitate our lives; the accountants will be responsible for dealing with the wild people in other subway stations in the future..."
In the control room, a man in a train conductor's uniform was looking at the monitor, his eyes closely following the witchcraft in the monitor.
At this moment, there was a knock on the metal door of the train control room, and then it was opened directly.
Wu Ci took back the wire that pried the lock, put the tool bag back on his belt, and looked up at the man in the train conductor's uniform standing in the train control room.
The dull blond hair that looked almost black in the dark and the blue eyes were in line with Tianzun's aesthetic appearance.
But his body is made of metal, with only his face covered with a layer of artificial leather.
This is a humanoid robot whose interior is made of machinery.
I don’t know if [preaching] will work, Wu Ci thought.
The man in the train conductor's uniform did not give Wu Ci any extra time to think. He turned around, knelt on one knee and saluted. "Master Pride, please forgive me for being imprisoned and unable to come to see you."
Wu Ci took off his helmet, bit the hair tie on his wrist and tied up his hair, pretending to be casual to completely expose his face and eyes, and sat down on the sofa next to him, "Just tell me what you want to say."
"Yes, sir. The parliament offered sacrifices to the cities, but you took the extracted vitality and summoned the savior without returning. Now there is no sign of the savior. His Excellency the Speaker is very dissatisfied with your behavior."
It seems that the visitor has no good intentions.
Wu Ci took the initiative in the conversation and said with a smile, "So? You are here as an envoy of the Speaker to question me?"
Hearing Wu Ci's displeased honorific, the man's head immediately hit the metal floor of the control room and he quickly said, "Lord Pride! My loyalty to you will never change. I came here to inform you that the Speaker has sent Lords Gluttony, Lust, and Wrath to form an inspection team to find evidence against you. But Lords Envy, Laziness, and Greed all support you."
The man knocked his head to the ground. The electronic voice without any emotion was muffled, but it was inexplicably full of enthusiasm. "My Lord Arrogant, His Majesty the Speaker has done such a thing. Let's just rebel against him!"
Wu Ci was somewhat surprised, but he also felt that this was most likely a deliberate attempt by the Seven Sins Council to test him, so he said in a sharp voice: "You are trying to sow discord and overthrow the rule of the Speaker... Are you going to betray the Council?"
"My Lord Arrogant, please understand! I have no such intention! It's just that the Speaker relied on the favor of the Heavenly Lord to go against the original intention of the parliament. We should unite to overthrow his rule! We must not let a guy who may have been disgraced be our Speaker!"
"…ah?"
When the man said this, Wu Ci was stunned.
We can't let a disfigured guy be the speaker? Is that a reason? Lovers need to be good-looking to win the support of the people, right? If they are disfigured, they must be overthrown?
No, is there something wrong with the Seven Sins Council? Are you going to overthrow the Speaker just because he might be disfigured? Are you rebelling because the Speaker's face is not acceptable to the public?
No, it seems that all those who believe in Tianzun are stupid beauties like this... In that case, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it...
The man kneeling on the ground continued to shout, "Some people have long suspected that there is something fishy going on! He was able to become the speaker by using his power to fake the game! He bought fake fans to increase sales during the election referendum! There is definitely something wrong here! I heard that he is wearing a mask and dare not show his face! He must have been disfigured and dare not be as open as you to let people appreciate him and benefit the public!"
Wu Ci's mouth twitched.
There is a problem in your council, right? The power struggle is actually using the election and voting system! What kind of old-time remnant party that was killed for fun 20 years ago? What kind of election and terrorist organization is this? Did the Seven Sins Council get this notorious reputation by forcing others to vote with you?
The reason why the parliament is regarded as crazy and hated by everyone is because they force everyone they catch to vote for your favorite idols, let them debut as the center, and form a group to serve as members of the Seven Sins, right?
What a neurotic organization!
"Master Arrogant, there is no need to question it. You are the Noah that Tianzun loves the most! With your ability, you will definitely be able to become the new Speaker!"
The man kneeling on the ground crawled over excitedly and hugged Wu Ci's calf. The bad intention he had just had was gone at all, like a crazy and brain-dead fan who was feeding his idol some fighting brainwashing stuff.
His metal body crawled and squirmed flexibly and darkly, and the sharp and violent noises it made made people want to poison him to death. "Master Arrogant, let's start a voting competition. The brothers unanimously support you to be the Speaker! After we massacred the city, we took all the valuable things in the city and stored them in our hands, waiting to vote for you! We will definitely not let you lose! We all love you!"
Wuci...is beginning to sympathize with the Chairman of the Seven Sins Council.
The chairman of the Seven Sins Council is really capable. He can manage to maintain the council with such a group of stupid beauties with brain problems. As a result, these idiots actually want to rebel against him because of the ridiculous reason that he might destroy Rong.
Once the speaker of the Seven Sins Council steps down, the Seven Sins Council will probably be finished.
By the way, the original body had been missing for so long, and would rather hide his identity, take out a huge loan, live in the old city and be a poor ghost than go back to be a council member, just to escape from the Seven Sins Council...
