Chapter 49 "Could it be that this giant octopus came at a precise time?"
What happens on the Star Network must of course be resolved on the Star Network.
He Xile saw His Majesty opening the terminal and connecting to the star network. He thought of something and followed His Majesty to log in.
The guards on the side saw this and did not stop it.
——With Your Majesty here, humans will definitely not be harmed.
The place where He Xile logged off before was at the experience center. If there is no special selection, the character will log in again at the place where he logged off.
He just appeared in the room, opened his eyes, and was about to look for the staff, when he suddenly found that the door in front of him was open.
He Xile was shocked.
Turning around, he saw the staff standing behind He Xile.
He was silent, his eyes looking at He Xile, expressionless, and no one knew what he was thinking.
He Xile had just finished complaining about the staff member to the guards and His Majesty, and his heart almost stopped when he saw this.
He repeated to himself several times that this was the Star Network and he wouldn't be harmed. On the surface, he frowned slightly and asked confidently, "What are you doing in my training room?"
"Feel sorry."
The staff member said, "I saw you were offline from the surveillance camera and wanted to see if anything was wrong."
He raised his hand and pointed overhead. "You don't know, sir? To prevent players from vandalizing mechas, experience centers like ours are equipped with surveillance cameras."
After saying that, the staff member smiled.
He Xile: "Oh."
The staff member's smile looks a bit eerie.
When will Your Majesty arrive?
He Xile thought about it in his heart, but he was not really afraid.
He couldn't help but glance at the staff twice before explaining, "Something happened and I had to log off to deal with it. Oh, and I haven't had time to activate the dish yet. So, the time I was offline shouldn't be counted towards the trial period, right?"
The staff was stunned. They didn't expect He Xile to ask such a question.
He thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, sir. It won't be counted."
He Xile: "That's good."
The two looked at each other.
The staff stared at He Xile, and seeing that He Xile remained frank, they slowly said, "Then I'll leave first and not disturb your training. If there's anything else, please call me."
He Xile: “Yeah.”
Before leaving, the staff member suddenly held out his hand: "This is for you."
He Xile: “?”
He naturally reached out to take it and found that the staff gave him a note.
There were only four words written on it.
——Fall Plan.
Wow.
It seems the restoration of the wall depicting the gods is indeed related to the previous "Fall Project." I just didn't expect this seemingly sunny staff member to be involved.
but……
He Xile was a little confused.
What was this group of people doing by bothering to give him this note? Did they want him to join them?
Then they have the wrong person.
He Xile sneered inwardly.
——Not only will he not join in, he will even report it.
Seeing the staff member about to leave, He Xile quickly grabbed the other person's arm, raised the note in his hand, and asked, "Excuse me, what is this Fall Plan?"
He Xile said bluntly, "I also received this thing during the last Wave Festival, but I don't know what to do with it, and I don't know where to get more information. Since you are also one of them, why don't you tell me in detail?"
Upon hearing this, the staff looked He Xile up and down.
This human would ask this, meaning that he doesn't like Your Majesty either?
As expected, the bloodthirsty and manic Wen Ji and Your Majesty were both killed by everyone.
Despite thinking this, the staff still reminded them: "If you don't plan to join, knowing too much is not a good thing for you."
He Xile suddenly realized: "Oh, forget it then."
Staff: “?”
Ah this.
Didn't you give up a little too quickly?
The staff member was about to say something when he suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from outside.
"It's here—"
"search!"
"Open the door and search!"
Some people didn't understand the situation and were still cursing: "Fuck, what's going on? How can you barge in without permission? We agreed that no one will disturb me during the experience. I just entered the battle! If I lose points, will you compensate me? I'm giving a bad review--"
The voice stopped abruptly, followed by an exclamation, "Fuck, it's His Majesty alive!"
His Majesty?
The staff member's expression changed.
He looked at He Xile who was standing in front of him.
"It's you—"
Next second.
Wen Jiyu has already appeared at the door of the training room.
The room door was not closed.
He stretched out his long arm and pulled He Xile behind him. He raised his eyelids and replied calmly to the staff member's previous words: "It's me."
The staff gritted their teeth.
He understood it all at once.
It seems that He Xile just went offline just to tell His Majesty about the matter on the wall outside.
He took a deep breath.
In fact, when the staff saw Mr. He Xile suddenly go offline after closing the shop in the surveillance video, they had a vague feeling that something was wrong and suspected that the plan had been discovered.
He was about to retreat, but at this moment he saw He Xile coming back again.
This behavior made the staff suspicious.
——If something really went wrong, He Xile, the last precious human being in the entire empire, should not be online again.
In subsequent conversations, He Xile's behavior remained normal. Gradually, the staff lowered their guard, believing that the humans probably hadn't noticed anything unusual and that his offline behavior was just a coincidence.
But I didn't expect——
All of He Xile's expressions and actions just now were fake!
It’s to hold him back and prevent him from escaping!
Human!
What a cunning human being!
The staff stared at His Majesty, wishing they could see through His Majesty's body and see He Xile who was protecting him behind him.
He Xile, however, was in a different mood.
He looked up at the broad back in front of him. Somehow, he suddenly felt that this scene was like a chick being protected by its mother hen when it was in danger.
There’s a comforting sense of security.
...Stop, stop.
He Xile, what are you thinking about?
Your Majesty is not a mother hen.
He Xile poked his head out and noticed the staff's resentful gaze. He said innocently, "Why are you looking at me? It's obviously you who did something wrong."
"No need to waste time talking to him."
Wen Jiyu sneered, "If he knew this was wrong, he wouldn't do it."
Not necessarily.
He Xile thought that in this world, there are many people who know they are wrong but refuse to turn back even if they hit the wall.
Soon, the staff member was taken away by people from the management office behind him.
He didn't say a word the whole time.
He Xile asked curiously, "Is arresting people on the Star Network effective? He won't be forced offline, right?"
"No. The Administration has special privileges on StarNet when performing official duties. That person will definitely not be able to escape."
Wen Ji looked into the void with bloodshot eyes. His voice became much softer, and he said in a tone that was almost mocking, "He must be regretting not logging off now. Mental torture is much more difficult to endure than physical torture."
He Xile was stunned.
He looked at the tall figure of His Majesty in front of him, and suddenly wanted to comfort Wen Jiyu, give him a hug, or just stand quietly beside him like now.
This emotion came out of nowhere.
He Xile shook his head and dismissed the idea.
When he walked out of the room, he saw people from the management office blasting the cleared section of wall.
"boom--"
There was a loud bang and the wall collapsed.
A few white feathers fell among the debris.
Wen Ji and His Majesty snorted softly and strode forward.
He stretched out his hand and grasped the feathers, his blood-deep eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't know what he was thinking about, the black lines on his face instantly turned into tiny scales, and blue veins popped out on the back of his hand.
In just a moment, the feather turned into powder.
He Xile witnessed the whole process from the side.
Wow--
Awesome!
Your Majesty's hands can actually crush feathers into powder! What kind of superb technique is this!?
He Xile showed an ignorant expression.
"Keep an eye on the recent missing persons."
Wen Jiyu tilted his head and instructed the management staff, "Especially the relatively backward and remote planets. Since they have made a comeback, they will definitely restore those..."
Wen Jiyu glanced at He Xile beside him and didn't say anything else.
"Yes." The leading woman already understood.
She frowned, looking a little worried, and nodded, "Let's do it now."
Wen Jiyu: "Go ahead."
The woman went offline directly with a large number of people from the management office.
He Xile stood aside, confused, and wondered, is this the modern riddler?
"...Human. Since that group has set their sights on you, they will definitely try every possible way to win you over in the future." Wen Jiyu said calmly, "Next time you encounter something like this, you can tell me directly."
He paused, remembering what he had told He Xile not to look for him unless it was something important, and added, "You can do it anytime. It's okay to admit your mistakes."
He Xile: “…Oh.”
Human???
Your name is really fashionable.
He nodded: "If I find out."
Wen Jiyu said "hmm" and turned to look aside.
There were still many people standing in the corridor, taking the opportunity to watch the fun.
At this time, the matter came to an end, and the wall with the painting of the gods was also smashed. Everyone realized something later and looked at His Majesty, who was wearing a cloak and had a cold expression, and they were all stunned.
…I seem to have forgotten to slip away just now.
"Take them all away for questioning." Wen Jiyu ordered decisively.
The remaining staff of the management office: “Yes.”
Everyone: “…”
Damn it!
Another day trip to the management office! !
&
After this happened, He Xile certainly couldn't continue his mecha piloting training.
Following the management team out of the experience center, He Xile hissed and suddenly said, "I regret it."
He muttered, "I should have experienced the mecha before reporting it!"
Damn it.
I didn't think too much about it at the time, and I reported it without thinking. I completely forgot about the experience time of the mecha I bought. Now, dozens of star coins have been wasted!
If you calculate this using the snack street's measurement unit, you can buy a full sixty skewers!
He Xile was heartbroken.
Wen Jiyu, who was following behind He Xile, said: "..."
The aloof His Majesty sneered, obviously disdaining He Xile's words.
He said calmly: "I'm offline."
He Xile: "Okay."
After Wen Jiyu disappeared from the spot, He Xile immediately heard noisy sounds coming from the surroundings.
"Oh my god, it really is His Majesty. The human is right beside him."
"What's wrong with this mecha experience store?"
"...I don't know, but the loud noise I just heard should have come from inside, right?"
"I came here to join in the fun. It's been so long since I've seen His Majesty. When I suddenly saw him coming out of that shop, I was a little dazed for a moment. If it weren't for those marks on his face..."
"Shh-"
"Have you forgotten? His Majesty particularly hates people staring at his face."
"I'm not saying anything, but your Majesty is truly miserable because his second characteristic is on his face."
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Whispers reached my ears.
He Xile lowered his eyes, feeling that the timing was not right, and he did not stay on StarNet any longer.
After dinner in the evening, He Xile stayed in the study and read for a while before preparing to go to bed.
He had just entered the bathroom to take a shower, and before he had time to undress, he heard three polite knocks on the bathroom window.
“…”
He Xile muttered, "Could it be that this giant octopus came at the right time?"
As soon as he opened the window, as expected, a tentacle stretched out like lightning. It took only a second to wrap around He Xile's shoulders, as if it was a friendly greeting.
He Xile asked, "Do you want to take a shower? Let me go for a moment, I'll go get you the coral you brought last time."
The tentacle understood.
After being released, He Xile was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
——You really came here to take a shower at the perfect time!
