Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

Bai Lin asked curiously, "Suicide? Is suicide even possible?"

“My attention has a certain coercive effect, and it can even be said to involve causality. Suicide is not so simple. People who are under my attention generally do not have suicidal thoughts. Even if they force themselves to do it and carry out an ‘involuntary suicide,’ they may be forced to stop due to various accidents.”

The gods organize language.

"For example—I hanged myself, but the rope broke; I threw myself into the river, but a big fish in the river lifted me up. These are all high-probability events, and they are lucky events that depend on my will at the height of my power."

Zuo Chang and Bai Lin exchanged a glance, both somewhat puzzled.

Bai Lin asked, "What about poison? A potent poison that can kill someone, and we'll send experts to monitor them and prevent any rescue efforts. What do you think?"

The god looked at him with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot: "Feiniao and Mayumi are both people of the twelfth realm. What kind of poison is so potent that it can guarantee to kill them? You have also been to the fifteenth realm. You should know that potent poisons that are not formed by magical power and exist in nature have little effect on people of the twelfth realm."

Zuo Chang asked, "Then, can we send Bai Lin to kill Fei Niao and Zhen Gong directly?"

Before the deity could speak, Bai Lin immediately looked at Zuo Chang with astonishment!

He waved his hand and said, "General, I can't do such a thing. I can't possibly beat up Asuka or Mayumi, let alone commit murder with the intention of killing them. Why don't you do it yourself?"

Zuo Chang spread his hands: "If you can't bear to do it, how can I? This kind of thing would leave me with a deep psychological scar, I won't do it!"

Bai Lin shook his head even more: "Look, even you can't do it, how could I possibly do it? Let's find someone more capable!"

This……

Suicide attempts can be interrupted by various unexpected factors, and it's hard to bring oneself to do it. It seems that letting Asuka and Mayumi die is a real dilemma.

The goddess remained calm and simply said, "Actually, maintaining the status quo is quite good. Leonard's attention is entirely focused on the Sea of ​​Reflection right now, and the Dragon Strategist and his group won't back down easily either. Putting it aside for now is also a good thing."

Bai Lin said, "The God's opinion is exactly what I think. We don't need to be in such a hurry. On the contrary, preserving Asuka and True Bow's 'resurrection ability' is an advantage. They can undertake more dangerous missions, and their combat strength is also considerable. We should make use of this."

Zuo Chang nodded slowly, acknowledging the judgment of the Heavenly God and Bai Lin.

The most urgent task should be—

Find the remaining "eyeballs".

The goddess said she planned to fix the world's hierarchy at "Seven Realms," which meant a drop of eight levels.

Aside from Bai Lin, whose mechanism has already been triggered, and Fei Niao, Zhen Yu, and Guang Yin Sheng Nu, whose mechanism has not yet been triggered, there are four hidden observers.

Zuo Chang racked his brains and said, "According to the gods, the most prominent characteristic of those who are under scrutiny is undoubtedly 'luck.' Those four whose identities are still unclear may have faced life-or-death crises several times, yet miraculously survived—is that right?"

Bai Lin recalled the past and nodded: "I have indeed had several near-death experiences. At the time, I thought it was just my fate, but now it seems that it was the divine intervention that was at work... However, this alone is probably not enough to properly distinguish who is being watched. What does it mean to 'encounter a life-or-death crisis' and what does it mean to 'survive miraculously'? We adventurers are creatures who lick blood from the edge of a knife. For those with higher skills, brushing shoulders with death is a common occurrence."

this……

indeed.

Zuo Chang remained silent, pondering, and before he could figure out what to do, a sudden burst of light appeared around him. After a violent spatial tremor, Zhen Gong fell from the spacetime rift.

At the same time, Bai Lin's cultivation level dropped by one level!

Before Zuo Chang could react, another spacetime rift appeared, and the bird fell from it.

At the same moment, Bai Lin's cultivation level dropped another level!

Bai Lin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

He felt his power draining away and realized that he was now only at the twelfth level: "General, I am now... as weak as you."

This……

Zuo Chang was completely bewildered. He looked at Zhen Gong and asked, "What happened?"

"We were ambushed."

Mayumi, looking displeased, spoke with annoyance.

Asuka let out a soft breath, seemingly still reeling from the shock of "death." She slowly shook her head and said, "It was a trap. I should have realized that the Jianli clan had contacted Leonard and the others, and that General Red Rock was lying in ambush in the room and had succeeded in one strike."

Leonard?

General Hongyan?

Zuo Chang looked at the Heavenly God, who had already begun projecting: "I sensed it earlier, but seeing you all chatting so enthusiastically, I didn't say anything."

An image appears on the wall.

Zuo Chang turned his head and saw what was happening in Yaotai's living room—

In the scene, Asuka and Mayumi are seated, while Kazuma Misato stands awkwardly in front of them.

Mayumi opened the treasure book "The Shadow of Emerald Green" and read the notes inside.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of her turning the pages of a book.

After a short while, Mayumi seemed to see something that interested her, and immediately closed her eyes, as if she were practicing the technique recorded in the treasure book.

At that very moment, a streak of red light lurking outside the room burst forth, rushing into the room like a meteor and abruptly appearing in front of Mayumi!

"Tsk."

Even after watching it again, Mayumi was still extremely annoyed!

She looked at Zuo Chang and said, "Father, this General Hongyan is really unscrupulous. He launched a sneak attack while I was practicing the techniques in the treasure manual! I was so focused on my own cultivation that I couldn't sense the changes in the outside world quickly. By the time I reacted, I was already engulfed in flames! If we had fought head-on, I..."

Zuo Chang looked at her and smiled, "You?"

"...I won't lose that quickly."

Mayumi seemed to realize the gap between herself and General Hongyan, and her words lacked confidence.

The scene continues; after killing Mayumi, General Hongyan launches a swift and fierce attack on Asuka—

Asuka made a defensive move, but unfortunately she was facing a true master who had mastered the power of the Fire God. The red wind swept by, and she was already a skeleton!

Looking at himself in the image, Feibiao felt a lingering fear: "I am truly ashamed... The hot wind hit my face at the time, causing me great discomfort. It was as if all the magic power in my body had been evaporated, and I was unable to mobilize it at all."

"That's normal, that's how their Vulcan power works."

The gods remained remarkably calm in the face of this.

She continued calmly, "The God of Fire can evaporate the magic power within a radius of several thousand meters around him. If you don't prepare in advance, he can prevent you from using any skills, which is like a father beating his son. When I fought him, I made a lot of preparations, but my endurance and rotation still had problems, which is why he escaped."

Chapter 356 Ancient Methods

On the screen, Kazuma Misato's expression was one of utter astonishment.

He stood up, his hands trembling: "Th-th...who are you?!"

The astonishment and fear on his face seemed genuine, as if they were unrelated to the matter at hand.

But regardless of whether Kazuma Misato was involved or not, the Misato clan cannot escape it.

It is clear.

When Mizuzuka told the family elders about the matter, the elders quickly made a decision—to side with Leonard.

This is a very reasonable and foreseeable possibility.

Although the patriarch of the Jianli clan is dead, it is not surprising that the Jianli family has a channel to contact Leonard.

When the Li clan reports the intelligence, Leonard can't help but pay attention!

They knew all too well what the Wind God's true form meant;

The relationship between Yaotai Zhen Gong and "Heavenly King General" is not difficult to find out.

Taking both factors into account, killing Yaotai Zhen Gong was their most urgent and correct strategy.

Regardless of whether Zuo Changfang's power would be weakened after Zhen Gong's death, the mere fact that he could obtain the "Origin of the Wind God" was enough to support all their actions.

And this...

"I never expected this!"

Zuo Chang was surprised by his own negligence!

Perhaps knowing that Asuka and Mayumi had one exemption from death, his mind became dulled.

On the contrary, Leonard's team performed with utmost professionalism.

General Hongyan was an adventurer at the fourteenth realm, two realms higher than Mayumi and Asuka. In addition, he was proficient in the power of the Vulcan, making his combat strength extremely formidable.

Yet he still chose to launch a sneak attack, and it was when Makoto was completely off guard and trying to train that he made his move, truly displaying the demeanor of a ruthless hero.

The images continue.

General Hongyan's expression changed drastically in the picture; his eyes widened and his pupils trembled violently!

"General, he seems to have realized something."

Bai Lin savored General Hongyan's expression with great interest, even revealing a smile: "His expression now is probably the same as mine back then. I just don't know... whether he knows that we are behind his decline in cultivation."

As soon as he finished speaking, General Hongyan in the picture suddenly looked up and stared directly at the camera!

His gaze was sharp, as if piercing through the projection, looking at Zuo Chang behind the screen.

To this-

Zuo Chang slightly curled the corners of his lips and said, "He discovered it; he's very perceptive. But what's the use? It's too late! He's only at the twelfth realm now, no longer the supreme being of the fifteenth realm! My current level is enough to contend with him!"

General Hongyan should have realized this.

The murderous intent in his eyes quickly faded, replaced by a sense of panic.

There was no stopping, and no wasted words.

General Hongyan raised his hand, opened the portal, and abruptly disappeared from the spot—he must have run away, perhaps back to his community, or perhaps back to the Sea of ​​Reflection.

Zhen Gong was furious. She looked at Zuo Chang and asked, "Father, are you just going to let him go like this?"

"Whether he leaves or not is no longer of much importance. After the world level drops to the twelfth realm, many things will change—especially since Leonard has recruited a new group of people into the Sea of ​​Reflection."

Zuo Chang had already foreseen part of the future.

He looked at Mayumi and said, "Keep up the good work. They can freely enter and exit the Sea of ​​Reflections, and you should be able to too. Your current rank is no lower than anyone else's. Once you can freely open the portal to the Sea of ​​Reflections, Leonard's plan will be utterly destroyed, leaving not even a trace."

Zhen Gong seemed to understand, but not quite.

She looked at the precious book "Emerald Shadow" in her hand and smiled, "When I was 'killed' just now, I instinctively gripped this book tightly, and it's still in my hand now. Father, I will soon make you—look at me with new eyes."
