Was that too restrained? Did Death not know the Warehouse existed?
After marveling at the wondrous nature of the gods' authorities, Fu Qian immediately followed up with a complaint.
To be fair, this way of using a Tool Person was rather ingenious, especially in terms of concealment.
No Honored Name, no emblem, no image. Laurie and the others hadn't even known what they were serving.
At a glance, it was nothing more than a carrion-eating worm born of greed. Who could have guessed that it would turn into a dragon once it grew large enough?
But with the Warehouse sitting right there, all that cleverness seemed too good to be true.
Unless the Warehouse had been completely incapacitated, or had opened a special back door just for Death Master, trying to pull a fast one this way seemed far too naive.
Any demigod veteran could follow the mission's directions to find them and smash this soul chain with a single punch, couldn't they?
Or was there more than one such chain?
For example, were Greedy Worms of various sizes growing throughout the Bookstore World right now?
One sign of a worm's tenacious vitality was that there were so many of them, and they weren't afraid to die.
Honestly, even so, it still didn't seem like enough to stand up to the Warehouse's unreasonable surveillance.
All in all, if Death Master had known the Warehouse existed and still chosen to leave this kind of contingency behind, it felt a little too foolishly optimistic.
Come to think of it, he had actually received a special reward in the form of an Idol of Fools during that mission.
"It's been a pleasure working with you, Your Excellency. I'll be going now."
Finding it all rather amusing, Fu Qian took his leave of Selena.
