Jiang Si headed straight for the sealed area.
"Do you know where the sealed land is? Then go there!"
"Have no idea."
"Then why are you running!"
"Based on intuition."
Sometimes Jialan wondered if there was some kind of reproductive barrier in their conversations.
However, Jialan felt that Jiang Si was indeed unlikely to have a human child with a human woman.
Although he was supposed to be searching for the sealed land, Jiang Si was actually holding off a million-strong army from the sky all by himself!
The Chongxu invincible drones, mechs, warships, and airplanes of Chongxu were now flying out in droves.
However, Jiang Si simply stood there, and not only these large objects, but even the nano-level weapons that Chongxu was so proud of, couldn't bring any of them down.
The fireworks and explosions continued uninterrupted for days on end.
Jialan only stared at it for a moment at first, then immediately stopped looking directly at it.
Just one glance at those bank deposits Chongxu open made her feel as if the local household registration booklet had covered her face, her vision went black, and she couldn't breathe.
How much would that cost?
To put it bluntly, all Jiang Si could do based on her intuition was run around and kill indiscriminately like a headless fly.
If he could really find the location by intuition, he wouldn't have been stuck outside the Chongxu for so long back then.
Looking at Jiang Si, who was blocking the steel torrent Chongxu, Jialan couldn't help but sigh.
Now there's really no one Brother Jiang can't beat, only no one Brother Jiang can't find.
If you can't find Brother Jiang, you can wait patiently for a lifetime; you'd better hide for a lifetime too.
Below the Chongxu, the Holy Church Member quickly spread throughout the Chongxu, arresting and questioning every person who had Chongxu.
They were frantically collecting more information about Lu Ya and Chongxu.
Not to mention the other people who Chongxu, even she, a senior figure who clearly had a connection with Jiang Si, was arrested by the people of the Holy Church and taken to the interrogation room.
At the time, she was still thinking about chasing after Jiang Si when Ruoyun personally led a team to capture her.
" Jiang Si and I are friends! I really am friends with Jiang Si!"
Despite her repeated emphasis, no one in the Holy Church paid her any attention.
But it doesn't matter. Who is Jialan? This kind of situation has been a daily occurrence since the day she joined the Witch Association.
Especially since this place is Chongxu.
She didn't really want to show off, but when she faced these outsiders in Chongxu, Jialan felt somewhat condescending, like a fish being fried in oil.
Therefore, when interrogated, Jialan simply smiled coldly and opened her account.
A whopping 80 million Chongxu Coin!
He was slapped onto the table.
"I told you to answer the questions honestly, what are you doing opening your account here?"
Jialan stared in disbelief at Ruoyun, who had slapped her.
Isn't this hothead afraid of my savings?
You've been coming to Chongxu for quite a while now, don't you even know what the numbers in my account represent?
I am a superior being from Chongxu—
Seemingly sensing her disbelief, Ruoyun simply opened her account in a cold manner.
Jialan gasped.
There wasn't a single penny left in the bank account!
However, a new combat power system appeared next to it, marked with 90 million!
"Where did this bumpkin come from? Instead of showing off your fighting prowess before coming to Chongxu, you're showing off your bank balance. What era are we living in? Who cares how much money you have?"
The people around him burst into laughter, their expressions clearly mocking the outsiders.
Jialan blushed, then looked somewhat bewildered.
Wait a minute, something's not right!
Isn't this Chongxu?
I'm a local from Chongxu, shouldn't I, as a local big shot, use my vast savings to thoroughly humiliate these outside beggars?
How did it come to the point where a local beggar from Chongxu was being severely mocked and humiliated by an outsider?
"Auntie, comparing savings isn't fashionable anymore. If you want to compare, compare fighting power! Only those with high fighting power deserve to be superior!"
"Don't say we're taking advantage of your age and weakness, ma'am. Here, combat power equals rank and status! Zero combat power means you're nothing more than a mere trainee. You'd better work hard to raise your combat power to five million and become an apprentice first!"
"These are all disciples with combat power exceeding 20 million. How dare you, a mere apprentice servant, speak like that? And you call Jiang Si your friend? Jiang Si is a Silver Alliance Master at the peak with combat power exceeding 10 billion! In our Holy Church, he's a rare and esteemed figure! A top-tier alliance at the Great Perfection of the Half-Step Gold Alliance!"
In a daze, Jialan seemed to return to many years ago, to that afternoon when, after leisurely taking a milk bath in a magnificent villa, the prince of the Mirror Kingdom suggested promoting the "Six-Step Method for Level 100 Witch Calamity Beasts"—
That damn Azure Cloud Sect, a half-step peak Great Perfection cultivator, is still chasing me even after I've reached the Chongxu!
I give up, okay?
Having been lectured by a random Holy Church Member, Jialan finally came to terms with reality.
Now I'm the one who's entered the Grand View Garden, like Granny Liu.
At the same time, she also discovered another unlucky guy.
Su La, the Nightwatchers.
The relationship between the Nightwatchers in Chongxu and the Witch Association is similar to that between the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau and the Witch Association in the New World.
This organization, which attempted to change the entire Chongxu from the inside out, has now been reduced to Joker under the impact of the Holy Church.
However, when it comes to understanding Lu Ya AI...
Perhaps only these Nightwatchers know the truth.
After all, Nightwatchers who wanted to overthrow Chongxu had always wanted to do was release the super AI Lu Ya.
However, over the years, those who attempted to release the super AI Lu Ya have basically been wiped out by Chongxu.
No one but Jiang Si could have done this.
It made the Nightwatchers look even more Joker.
Both their ideals and achievements were utterly crushed by the Holy Church and Jiang Si, who had only been in Chongxu for a few days.
What happened to the saying "Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake"? Why is the whole system rotten?
Su La remained silent and showed almost no reaction no matter how she was interrogated.
Thinking of the crazy, eccentric Su La who used to even run into the Witch Association's Guild building and curse, Jialan couldn't help but sigh.
Su La is a madwoman that only Chongxu could raise.
But now, in the Chongxu, whether mad or sane, everyone is shattered under the impact of the Holy Church, passively accepting everything that is completely incomprehensible.
The Chongxu that prioritized money and alienated people into capitalists has finally been completely changed.
Although it's said that you can't build something new without destroying it, it seems like the destruction has been a bit too much right now.
The high-rise buildings are all gone, leaving only those simple courtyards. The environment has also changed from a harsh, oppressive, and gloomy place where the sun is never seen to a place with bright sunshine and clear skies.
However, it seems that the stance of the people from Chongxu has not changed.
Because what's needed has changed from financial resources to combat power; if combat power is insufficient, one will only be oppressed and relegated to menial tasks.
However, going from a regular job to manual labor and leveling up still involves physical work.
Although we no longer have to worry about food, and there's no longer a nationwide intermittent fasting requirement.
One day, she met Su La, and the two of them chopped wood together on the mountain—this was what the Holy Church's handymen did.
From above, Jiang Si's heroic figure can be seen as soon as you look up.
It was still sweeping away the endless stream of drones and armored vehicles.
However, what were once high-end products like Magic Dolls and Light Energy Magic King have gradually become stockpiled old inventory.
They figured they'd found another way to make money, gradually turning the battle with Jiang Si into a Chongxu war. The weapons and equipment factories in Chongxu were up and running, with production booming. They probably hoped the higher-ups could keep Jiang Si fighting for a few more days.
"You seem to be in much better spirits lately. It seems mental illness really does require mental illness treatment."
Hearing Jialan's joke, Su La simply shrugged and continued carrying her firewood.
"Are you happy now? The Nightwatchers's dream, the wish to change Chongxu, has come true."
Jialan expected her to burst into laughter, but instead, Su La simply shook her head. "This is a matter that can't be explained."
" The Holy Church changed Chongxu and freed Chongxu people from loans. It seems that the credit for freeing the people from Chongxu is greater. Perhaps everyone has been oppressed by Chongxu for so long that they feel it would be better to have someone else oppress them. But isn't it all slavery? Because they are outsiders, they are easier to accept. As for those who want freedom, no one cares even if they die—who cares?"
As she spoke, Su La finally became even more eccentric.
"But I was the one who recruited them, so I'm a little resentful."
Jialan, who was listening nearby, was dumbfounded. She reached out and patted Su La's head, "How can you not go crazy at a time like this and still be able to speak normally? Who are you? You're definitely not Su La— "
"Heh, what nonsense are you talking about? Among all the Nightwatchers —no, among all of Chongxu —am I the only one who is mature and calm? It's just that everyone in Chongxu has gone mad, and I'm the only one who is sober, so it's inevitable that I'll look like I've gone crazy."
As she spoke, Su La suddenly burst into a hysterical laugh and shouted at Jiang Si in the sky, "Isn't that right, Jiang Si!"
In the midst of the fierce battle, Jiang Si seemed to genuinely lower her head slightly and glance down at them.
Another series of drone explosions followed. Suddenly, Su La grabbed Jialan's arm. "Oh, right, Vice President Jialan, there's something interesting I'd like you to experience with me~"
"Let's get this straight: I'm not interested in girls—"
"Oh, don't be afraid, I'm not interested in girls either. Of course, it's a different story if it's that darling from the garbage dump outside Chongxu —just kidding. Don't look at me like that. Hey, didn't you go to the garbage dump on your way back? If you saw her, you'd be smitten too. She's not someone boys or girls can describe, she's an angel!"
Jialan suddenly had a bad feeling.
The angel she mentioned... could it be the Angel of Death? It seems like she might be referring to Shion. But Shion should still be in the Beihai of the New World...
In short.
While Jialan was still pondering, Su La had already grabbed her hand tightly and opened her personal interface.
The data poured down like a waterfall, Su La's personal interface seemed to be infected with a virus, displaying all sorts of red alert boxes. But Su La paid no attention and just kept frantically operating on her personal interface.
Soon, the drones and various weapons that Jiang Si had shot down above her slowly began to swarm around her.
Su La grinned and whistled at Jiang Si, "Come on, darling, let's see what it's really like to To Live. Come on, kill us!"
All the weapons were positioned above Su La, aimed at Jiang Si, and fired with a deafening roar!
Jialan panicked. "Wait, wait, wait! If you want to die, die yourself!"
"Oh dear, if I really die, I'll at least have someone to take me with me on the road so I won't be lonely. Don't be afraid, Jialan, I'll always be with you."
"Do I need you to keep me company? Let go!"
Jialan wasn't given much of a chance to break free. After losing the Miracle Seed, she couldn't break free from Su's sudden grip. Soon, the blue spear in Jiang Si's mecha was in her hands.
It crashed down like a nail from the sky!
Wow!
Before being engulfed by the terrifying electric current, Su Li gasped in amazement, even reaching out to touch the dreadful celestial nail. "This is truly... wonderful! I promise, in my heart, you've surpassed that angel outside. Jiang Si, you are my true love!"
"You son of a bitch!"
Amid Jialan's screams and Su La's astonishment.
The two were completely annihilated by Jiang Si's spear.
After a long while, Jialan, with her hands still in front of her and her legs kicking wildly, realized that she was still To Live.
Then I heard Su La chuckle softly beside me, which then turned into a wild, unrestrained laugh!
"I told you so, I told you so!"
Jialan looked up and was stunned to find herself in front of an unfamiliar ceiling.
A huge glass curtain wall under the gray-blue ceiling occupies half of the view, and the light blue light illuminates the entire space, making it bright and spacious - a typical high-tech style decoration in Chongxu. Jialan immediately realized what it was.
We've actually arrived inside the Nightwatchers's building!
Two girls dressed in formal attire appeared before them, leading several Incubators.
"Hello, we are the superiors of the Nightwatchers."
Jialan suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, and she subconsciously touched the back of her neck.
They discovered something stuck in the back of her neck.
One of the girls, wearing glasses, said gently, "Since you were able to come up from the lower levels, please cooperate with us to suppress that mad Jiang Si— "
"Hi, hey, hey, this pretty lady."
Su La walked over and patted the girl with glasses on the shoulder. Sparks flickered from the data port on the back of her neck. Su La looked annoyed. "Are you kidding me? We just got here risking our lives. Do I need to teach you?"
Entertaining a hardworking guest requires a good meal and fine wine. Of course, it would be even better if some pretty girls could accompany them. If not, that's fine too; you could dance to liven things up. Anyway—
As she spoke, Su La's tone suddenly became more animated.
The hand that was on the young lady's shoulder suddenly grabbed her head and slammed it against the glass curtain wall behind her, then pressed it firmly into the shards of glass!
" Those Nightwatchers upstairs are so incredibly rude! Damn it, didn't your mother teach you to greet strangers first?!"
The girl's entire head was smashed by the shards of glass. Su La then casually tossed it aside, tugged at her collar to relax, and looked at the other girl who had instinctively stepped back, as well as the trembling Incubators beside her.
After wiping her face, Su La, her face covered in blood, flashed a bright smile, "Oh, baby, don't be afraid, I'm very kind. It was just a moment of losing control before my period started. Girls tend to lose control like this. There's a saying, 'Sassy girls are cuter,' right? But the period's gone now, I promise I'll control my emotions afterwards. Um, could I have some sanitary pads? I leaked a little because I was so excited. You know, it's hard to find sanitary napkins down there. I'm actually a sanitary pad enthusiast—"
Jialan sighed, rubbing her forehead.
Sure enough, this guy only appeared harmless under the suppression of the Holy Church and Jiang Si.
The illness will flare up as soon as I go outside.
However, soon after, Jialan suddenly heard something unexpected.
The night Nightwatchers girl who was greeting them lowered her voice and asked the Incubators next to her.
"Are you sure this can become a magical girl?"
ha?
When Jialan and Su Li disappeared, the continuous swarms of drones and mechs finally stopped.
Jiang Si looked towards the place where Jialan and Su had disappeared.
It wasn't that I was actually transported to the upper levels by my own attacks; rather, I was transferred away by something.
Jiang Si really wanted to praise the other party for managing to transfer the person away right under her nose.
However, it seems that he cannot erase the marks he left on Jialan and Su La.
Jiang Si didn't rush to find the person who moved Jialan and Su La away; she simply turned her head to look.
The little bat, with red-rimmed eyes and teary rims, stared at him the moment she was brought in.
" Jiang Si!"
He shouted and rushed over.
" Jiang Si, give me back my hard work! Why did you have to expose my hard work to so many people! You've bullied me so much! You've bullied me so much! Waaaaah----"
She tried to rush over while crying, but Jiang Si pressed a finger against her forehead, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't touch Jiang Si at all.
"Give me back my hard work—"
The people of Chongxu and the Holy Church Member below were watching with great interest.
Hyacinth even called out to White Fox and Keke, making them watch the farce unfolding above.
The two girls stared blankly at the pitiful little bat, its eyes swollen from crying.
After a long silence, the White Fox finally asked Keke in a low voice, "Sir, how many girls have you been involved with—"
"How would I know?" Keke looked at yet another girl being bullied to tears by her older brother, bit her lip, thought of the Prince, and couldn't help but complain, "Brother, what are you doing?!"
Even if you're a womanizer, at least take care of their feelings!
Otherwise, what will we do when Yiyi asks, " Keke Keke, how many girlfriends does our brother have?"
If Yiyi gets hurt, she'll definitely cry herself to death.
I worried about Yiyi's love life for a while, but when I looked at the bat girl before her transformation, I didn't recognize her at all.
Suddenly, she realized that she didn't know much about her brother at all; she didn't even know how many girls he knew outside.
He can't even manage his relationship with his older brother, so how could he possibly help Yiyi?
Thinking about it this way, my mood plummeted, and I lost interest in the farce unfolding before me.
The White Fox stared intently, straining its ears to hear what was being said.
"A ticket is just a ticket."
99
"That was my precious life, my everything, and you didn't cherish it at all. Now, I'll become the biggest joke in the vampire clan, and I'll never be able to show my face again. Is this what you wanted to see, Jiang Si? You've trampled my life and dignity into the ground, completely crushed them. Don't think you've won just like that. I'll die right here!"
It's just a ticket.
Jiang Si said calmly, "Just tell me the location of your so-called vampire clan, and let everyone's hard work be made public, right?"
Sonora was stunned. "Huh? How is this any different from a mass nude parade?"
"If everyone loses face, you'll save face."
The bat girl, who had been crying, stared blankly for a long time.
"Or do you think it's okay if only you are the one who loses face?"
Sonora immediately agreed without hesitation, "Then let's all lose face together."
Having apologized to her entire tribe in her heart, Sonora coughed, then sniffed, calming herself down. "Anyway, I'll take you to the upper level first—"
"No need."
Jiang Si slammed his fist in the backhand, smashing the space Chongxu!
The cracks in the sky continued to spread, and a pitch-black hole appeared from the center of the cracks, leading straight to the next level!
"I've found it."
Sonora's mouth dropped open. "How did you find it?"
"Just send someone over, the rest is just location tracking, and then..." Jiang Si grabbed the cracked space and tore it open!
"Just chase after them."
Sonora fell completely silent, following behind Jiang Si. This was the first time she had gone to the upper levels in this way, and it stirred something within Sonora for the first time.
"It seems like giving him all my effort isn't too bad?" That's the feeling I had.
Although if Jiang Si couldn't find a solution, he himself didn't have many days left to live.
How much do you know about Lu Ya?
As she traversed the spatial passage, Sonora was startled to hear Jiang Si inquire about this matter. After a moment's thought, she replied, "Many, the vampire clan is, after all, a veteran in Chongxu— "
"Has Lu Ya been sealed away?"
"Uh, Lu Ya is someone from a very, very long time ago."
Sonora looked somewhat troubled. "What's sealed now is her super AI that could destroy the entire Chongxu; she herself passed away a long time ago—"
"After all, she's just an ordinary girl."
Sonora heard Jiang Si remain silent for a long time before finally replying with a faint sound.
"Oh."
Not surprising at all.
