Chapter 109 – Sword Girl and the Observer Break Up


"But you still haven't solved your most pressing crisis."

 

Sonia propped up her chin, "From what you're saying, the Blood Moon Judgment on the 27th will definitely kill a lot of people. What if you are selected for the Blood Moon Judgment list? It feels like some kind of omen – the more perfect your plan is, the harder it is for you to survive until the day of implementation."

 

Naturally, she didn't stretch her long legs. In fact, lying on this boat was uncomfortable. After all, it wasn't a bed. She just wanted to tease the viewers and test their tolerance for her. The result was naturally very ideal.

 

Almost there, the day when she would dominate the viewers and turn them into her own ride!

 

Asho naturally didn't know the resentful thoughts in Sonia's heart. His eyes were fixed on the virtual realm map on the screen, and he said, "Then let's launch the plan directly and create a prison riot."

 

"But we don't have a boat-"

 

"Even if we don't have a boat, there are other ways to cross the shark swarm in the Broken Lake. It just requires shedding some blood. The biggest trouble without a boat is that we can't safely land. There will definitely be hunter troops waiting on the shore to hunt down the escaped prisoners. Although it's basically impossible to escape, it's still better than sitting and waiting for death in the Blood Moon Judgment."

 

Sonia nodded. This was indeed the best method in the worst case scenario. However, she slightly refreshed her view of the viewers because of last night's "coquetry". She thought the viewers were someone who hesitated and had delicate thoughts, but she didn't expect them to be decisive and ruthless when necessary.

 

Although Sonia could boast in front of the viewers, if she were imprisoned in the Broken Lake Prison and faced the heavily guarded island controlled by the chip, she might not have the determination to escape, let alone plan a riot.

 

Because escaping was not just about escaping, it was also about resisting the national institutions and challenging the ruling class. Even if they successfully escaped, they would only face endless pursuit and every time they opened their eyes, they would face ubiquitous malice. There was no safe place in the vast city that could accommodate them.

 

Compared to death, this suffocating pressure was perhaps more terrifying.

 

However, although the viewers sometimes showed a weak side, they were resolute when it came to escaping. They were not unaware of the power of the Blood Moon Kingdom. After all, they were captured by the Bloodthirsty Hunters themselves. They knew the Blood Moon Kingdom's strong control over society and knew that after escaping, they would face a precarious life.

 

However, in their words, they never showed a trace of fear towards the Blood Moon Kingdom.

 

Sonia could only attribute it to their "resurgence of the strong" bringing them confidence, or…

 

Their nature of not knowing fear.

 

"There's a head of the beheaded dragon in front. It should be in the growing stage. Should we go for it?"

 

"Let's go! I have a brilliant opening move in mind. Maybe we can knock out the beheaded dragon with one move."

 

As the small boat broke through the white mist, Sonia also had a sporadic feeling: the sound of the fish scale blade cutting through the sand, the sound of the dragon spitting bubbles, the smell of the sea… Although she couldn't identify knowledge creatures from a distance like the viewers, the "Expel Secret Poison" allowed Sonia to collect biological information of the knowledge creatures through the white mist, allowing her to prepare for battle in advance, lightly gripping the sword hilt with her right hand.

 

"Hey?"

 

The small boat suddenly made a turn, causing all the momentum accumulated by Sonia to dissipate. She complained, "What are you doing?"

 

Asho's voice was excited, "I found something strange behind the beheaded dragon. It might be a Miracle Island."

 

He saw a dazzling silver light appearing in the area behind the beheaded dragon on the "Virtual Realm Map", forming a sparkling prompt:

 

"Come quickly!"

 

"Finally encountered Miracle Island again?" Sonia straightened her body, "This time, we must capture all the Artisans! Not a single one can escape!"

 

But as they got closer to the target area, Asho and Sonia both felt that something was wrong – the white mist in this area was as thick as milk, and the visibility was so low that Asho and Sonia on the small boat couldn't see each other!

 

They felt more and more knowledge flowing into their consciousness. Asho was fine, but Sonia's mind was constantly flashing with insights. She quickly solved all the current puzzles she encountered, and was waiting to return to reality to confirm her thoughts!

 

Absorbing the white mist while sailing in the virtual realm would increase faction experience. Although Asho and Sonia had already activated the Silver Wings and couldn't continue to condense Artificing, their Artificing factions that hadn't reached the Gold level yet could still gain experience by absorbing the white mist.

 

However, this experience from the white mist was not very obvious and usually only had an effect when the sorcerers were in battle or conducting research. But this dense mist that allowed the sorcerers to break through one obstacle after another was almost comparable to the experience pearls!

 

Crack.The moment the small boat stopped, the white fog in front of them suddenly dispersed, revealing the hidden island within.

 

The next second, Asho and Sonia's faces changed dramatically!

 

If there were knowledge creatures, Artificer projections, or other Artificers on the island, they wouldn't be so surprised.

 

However, what came into their view were two chairs!

 

Two!

 

The two exchanged glances, and Asho subconsciously lowered his voice and asked, "Do you know what this place is?"

 

"No idea." Sonia also seemed a bit timid, "Shall we leave?"

 

Their fear was understandable. If there was only one chair, they wouldn't think much of it, but two chairs meant that the island knew two people would come!

 

But the problem was, apart from them, all the Artificers in the Virtual Realm were traveling alone!

 

It was like traveling in a strange city, suddenly finding a hundred-dollar bill, and upon closer inspection, it read: 'Hello Asho, spend it.'

 

The chill and fear of being watched by an unknown existence would scare anyone.

 

Asho glanced at the 'Virtual Realm Map' again, confirming that it read 'Come quickly', and decided to go to the island: "Don't be afraid, at worst we'll just give up the first blood in the Virtual Realm. Anyway, we've both unfolded our Silver Wings, so there's no loss if we die."

 

"But what if it's like the 'Exile of the Deadly Poison' situation?"

 

"Trust me!"

 

Seeing Sonia still hesitating, Asho directly pulled her onto the island – he was also scared, but he needed someone to back him up.

 

The chairs were very ordinary. They looked at each other, took a deep breath, and sat down together.

 

There was nothing special, and the chairs didn't sprout tentacles to tie them up.

 

After a while, they felt something and looked down to find a piece of paper on their thighs.

 

The moment they picked up the paper, they knew the rules of the game: answer the questions that appear, the game ends immediately if the answer is wrong, and you can continue to answer if it's correct. If the number of correct answers is greater than or equal to 1, the respondent has the right to ask questions.

 

When Sonia looked at the paper, several lines of text appeared on it:

 

'Question·Multiple Choice: What is the fundamental reason for the rift between Sword Girl and the Observer?'

 

'1 Sword Girl hates the Observer's indifference'

 

'2 The Observer thinks Sword Girl can't control'

 

'3 Unequal distribution of spoils'

 

'4 All of the above'
