Chapter 223 The Missing Emperor

Kryptos turned green.

The reason he didn't allow his subordinates to get close was because he didn't want the society to die, but due to the synesthetic effect of the ritual, the information that 'the Emperor is 0' was already common knowledge.

The knight commander was punished.

Kryptos was furious.

After performing the ritual and regaining his power, he first sacrificed seven people to appease the heavens, and then prepared to launch a night raid on the camp to kill Elder Huang and Mo Yu.

After learning from Elder Huang that Mo Yu had tipped him off, he began to suspect Mo Yu. Now, he'd rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free.

Witnessing the events before and after.

Mo Yu fell into deep thought.

Why did these subordinates know about Kryptos's XP?
Another idea popped into his head.

This knight commander has a special affection for Kryptos; perhaps we can use that. If we can keep Kryptos here temporarily, we can lure the Star Worms here after the expedition leaves tomorrow and wipe them all out.

rewind.

Back to morning.

He did not release the mirror image.

The girls are all hiding; they won't affect the development of events outside, so there's no need to release mirror images.

Mo Yu began to act.

He first went into the city and collected a stack of comic books from bookstores. No matter where you go, there's always a market for these books, so collecting them isn't difficult.

After getting his hands on it, he returned to his hideout and found Lereya resting in her room.

Over the past few days, Lei Leya has also figured out some patterns. Mo Yu generally doesn't rewind time. But whenever he does, it will rewind continuously within a certain period of time. At this time, she must go to sleep to offset the cost of rewinding time.

Shake Lereya awake.

Mo Yu dumped a stack of books on the ground and said, "Come on, imitate the art style of these doujinshi and modify one for me, generating a specific plot. Name it 'The Emperor's Fall.' It would be best if it could interfere with the target's mind and affect their judgment..."

The book is directly based on Kryptos and the Knight Commander.

Lei Leya was puzzled but impressed. She tried to generate one, and then she gained an extra memory that progressed to the evening, which was obviously a rewind after Mo Yu's actions.

"Again...no, again...again..."

After five consecutive attempts, Lereya became discouraged.

She rubbed her eyes sleepily and said, "Mo Yu, I'm so sleepy..."

Mo Yu fell into deep thought.

"You wait."

He left the room with a single sentence, and soon returned carrying Herobella.

After setting the little mermaid down and explaining the current situation, she said, "Heroine, you can help design the plot of the script. Just tell Lereya the details."

"What...what kind of book?! I...I don't know! Don't talk nonsense! I would never read that kind of thing!" Herobella refused guiltily.

Mo Yu: "Those things under your bed..."

"Ahhh! I promise, I promise!" Herobella covered Mo Yu's mouth, indicating her submission, and helped Lereya design the plot of the doujinshi.

Soon, Mo Yu received the notebook designed by Herobella.

He tried again.

Catch a contaminant, stuff a bunch of comic books on it, and then throw the contaminant into the building where the adaptor is hiding.

The pollutants will be killed, but those comic books will fall into the hands of the adaptants.

They really enjoyed watching it.

After all, hiding here is quite boring.

Mo Yu rewound the script more than ten times, trying different angles and times to throw the contaminated object in before finally getting the book "The Fall of the Great Emperor" into the hands of the Knight Commander.

The chess pieces have been placed.

Now we wait for the results.

time flies.

Night falls.

The city was pitch black.

Kryptos emerged from the secret passage and reunited with his subordinates. After a private conversation between the Knight Commander and Kryptos, the two disappeared.

The other adaptors were somewhat panicked, but dared not act rashly.

The next morning.

The expedition broke camp and set off, but Kryptos had not yet appeared.

The plan is feasible. Rewind.

Back to the early morning.

Mo Yu knocked on Alice's door.

The two rabbit girls, dressed in pajamas and looking quite unwell, protested against Mo Yu for disturbing their peaceful sleep.

Mo Yu said, "Get ready to move out. Go and lure the star worms over here, the more the better. The expedition team will leave the city at 9 o'clock. Calculate the time and get the star worms here around 10 o'clock."

Alice and Govia ate a quick bite of breakfast and left, muttering to themselves.

Mo Yu woke up Iris and Herobella and told them to prepare for battle.

Everything is ready.

It's around 8am.

Mo Yu appeared in the expedition team and helped check the vehicles.

Elder Huang discovered that Kryptos was missing. After discussing the matter, he decided to go and search for him alone, since Kryptos was the strongest member of the group. Once he found him, he could rejoin the main force.

And so, the expedition team set off on time before 9 a.m., leaving the city via the same route.

Five more vehicles were added. These extra vehicles were some well-preserved transport vehicles discovered in the underground research institute. After Mo Yu helped repair them, they can be put into use.

Every car was packed to the brim.

The pumice stones were placed in a special lead box and fixed in the trunk of a large vehicle. This material could reduce gravity and also reduce the vehicle's fuel consumption.

The convoy set off in a grand procession.

The Dream Flower barrier disappeared when the ritual was broken, and the evacuation proceeded smoothly without any hindrance.

inside the carriage.

Li Jiu asked in confusion, "Mo Yu, where are your two wives?"

The mirror smiled and replied, "They were exhausted last night, and they wanted to sleep a little longer."

"Zhao, you're showing off again!" Li Jiu cursed.

The mirror image followed the expedition team away.

Meanwhile, on the top of a building in the city.

Mo Yu sat on the edge of the building, looking down at a large building, which was where the adaptor was hiding.

Once the star worm army arrived, he took advantage of the chaos to kill them.

Elise and Herobella stood behind him, with Herobella clinging to Mo Yu's back and hugging his neck.

Elise brushed her wind-blown blonde hair aside and asked curiously, "Master, what did you do? Why did Kryptos stay here instead of leaving with the main group?"

Mo Yu said, "You should ask what his subordinates did. Herobella, tell her the plot of the script."

Herobella said shyly, "It's...it's about an incomparably noble emperor who lost his power due to an accident, was captured and corrupted by his wicked subordinates, and eventually found happiness."

Elise: "???"

Mo Yu shrugged: "I don't know exactly what happened, but he has indeed disappeared and hasn't returned to the expedition team. Wherever he is, let's wipe out these adaptants first."

Time passes.

A buzzing sound came from the horizon, and a bright spot appeared on the horizon, rapidly approaching.

It was a large swarm of insects whose bodies emitted a ghostly blue light, and they flew at an extremely fast speed.

Blood-red characters appeared.

6% are three-stage evolutionary forms.

3% of the four evolutionary forms.

One is a fifth-stage evolutionary form.

The head worm is a sixth evolutionary form.

Their combat power is terrifying.

Even the weakest dozen or so insects would be enough for three people to fight, but this overwhelming, densely packed number completely exceeded Mo Yu's expectations.

"You all go back and don't come out. You can't participate in this level of battle. I'll just take advantage of the chaos."

Mo Yu issued the order.

Elise happily agreed, glad that she didn't have to get involved in the matter.

Herobella said with a worried look, "Mo Yu, you shouldn't go either."

Elise grabbed Herobella's arm and pulled her toward the door, saying, "Don't worry, with Master's cunning, he won't put himself in danger."
