No health bar? You call this stunningly beautiful NPC sickly?
Chapter 140 Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, shepherds to shepherds.
"???" The Blackwing player's expression changed drastically, his face turning a deep liver color, and the curiosity he had was extinguished by a bone-chilling cold.
He stared at the detection panel for a few moments, then deliberately turned off the skill and deleted all the data he had prepared to record. Seeing this, his fellow clansmen did not rush to ask any questions.
In the multiverse server, finding question marks is not uncommon, but when the results of the search are formed into a complete question, the meaning is completely different.
This means that the beings high in the sky have already detected and investigated, and even seen the user by looking in the opposite direction of the ability.
"Terrifying...invisible, inaudible, and indescribable." The Blackwing player tucked his wings behind his back, a look of lingering fear on his face. "No need to investigate anymore, she knows we're watching her."
Even if you have extraordinary abilities and succeed in your investigation regardless of the consequences, you still won't be able to verify whether it's true or false.
"Moreover, for something that can influence a bizarre game, investigation is pointless. Even if we knew its origins and background, we would have no ability to resist and would only displease it."
That makes sense, but it's a bit hurtful; harsh words can hurt people's feelings!
Upon hearing the warning, nearby players stopped using their information-based skills.
Before the Seven Sins instance even officially opened, they had already encountered a golden eye that stretched across the sky, an SSS-level judge from the Royal Court faction, and a "god" who seemed to be related to the Holy Land.
Yes, it was a god. They simply couldn't find any other words to describe the figure before those giant golden eyes.
This so-called battle of the era is clearly far beyond the scope of what ordinary players like them can participate in.
Players who were rushing to the God-Slaying Covenant panel started to back away. Those who were just praising the Royal Court's ideals of freedom were now carefully studying the tiny "Join" option in the lower right corner of the pro-gods panel.
Without a second's hesitation, the player leader with black wings on his back folded his wings, knelt on one knee, and looked righteous and awe-inspiring.
"I've long thought that the Royal Court's declarations were utterly hypocritical. Tens of thousands of forces uniting to bully one—is that fair? Bah! I think the Royal Court is just shameless!"
These words were like a pebble thrown into a lake. The players despised them in their hearts, but their expressions suddenly changed, and they turned to the radiant figure in the sky that emanated a holy light to pledge their loyalty.
"Damn the royal court! I hate the people of the royal court more than anything in my life!"
"We don't know which despicable people would choose the Royal Court! The radiance of the Holy Land has dispelled our unease. We are willing to do our best to serve you, only to atone for our mistakes."
"Praise be to this sacred place!"
"Loyalty! Faithfulness to the Lord! Praise be to His Majesty who is tolerant of all beings!! He will surely protect us lost souls who have strayed into this place!"
The elites of various ethnic groups changed their stance with practiced ease. Just a moment ago they were scrambling to join the royal court, but now they were uttering endless words of praise. Their rapid change of attitude was astonishing.
Their ability to survive through multiple instances to this day has never relied solely on strength.
When the situation is clearly unfavorable, clinging to so-called dignity is worthless; expressing goodwill and minimizing one's presence are the most basic survival skills.
Of course, a few players are still stuck on the God-Slaying Covenant panel.
They did not continue to choose a side, but simply remained on the sidelines. After all, although the being high in the sky exuded holiness, the silver-armored goddess clearly stated that she had only inherited a portion of the power abandoned by the Holy Domain.
This indicates that complex divisions also exist within the Sanctuary.
Plunging to either side too early could make you a target for future purges. Of course, remaining on the fence could also offend both sides, but there's no better option at the moment.
In the area where the Moon Clan resided, Ling Xi did not participate in the temporary praises. She looked up at the sky full of golden feathers, her pale face becoming more serious.
After checking the surroundings, the escorting player whispered a reminder to her not to choose a faction for the time being.
Ling Xi opened the pro-god faction panel and found the "join" option hidden in the corner.
"Before Sister Yuexi left, she told me something."
"If you encounter a force called the Sanctuary in the dungeon, there's no need to analyze or test it; just follow them directly."
The escorting players turned their gaze to her, "Has Your Highness ever been in contact with the Sanctuary?"
"She didn't go into details, but just told me to remember one word: Your Majesty."
Ling Xi recalled Yue Xi's unusually solemn expression before her departure and reached out to confirm her joining the Holy Domain Church.
[Ling Xi, a player from the Moonlit Clan, has joined the pro-god faction.]
[Current faction initial friendliness: Friendly]
[You have been granted an indirect blessing from an unknown high-level being, resulting in an additional increase in initial friendliness!]
Ling Xi and the other escorting players from the Divine Moon Clan had no idea just how ridiculously high this initial friendliness boost was.
At this moment, several Diana players nearby quickly exchanged glances.
As the eldest princess of the Jiaoyue clan, Yuexi was consistently ranked among the top on the Heavenly Ranking before losing her memory. She acted domineeringly and capriciously, but rarely expressed her stance publicly. Since she specifically left this instruction, she obviously possessed information that the outside world was unaware of.
The escorting players did not continue to stop them, and also reached for the pro-gods panel.
The rest of the Moonkin also made their choice.
As the old saying goes, going all in is a form of wisdom! I forgot the beginning, I forgot the end, but basically, just blindly rush into the holy realm!
Standing high in the sky, Mu Zhixi took in all the changes happening in the square.
Although she didn't care about the whispers among the players, she could see that her faith points were steadily increasing in the background, especially after the Moon Clan joined the Pro-Gods faction, which accelerated the rate of faith point accumulation.
Although Seven Deadly Sins doesn't seem to have a live stream, its sheer number and quality are undeniable, and its growth rate of faith points is comparable to the time when she descended upon Haicheng from Blue Star.
As for those players who just wanted to join the Royal Court but now turned around and praised the Holy Domain, Mu Zhixi, as a kind goddess, didn't mind.
Faith is based on voluntariness, and verbal consent is also considered voluntariness.
As long as the money arrives in the account, whether the believer's praise is genuine or forced due to survival pressure is an irrelevant process.
Mu Zhixi felt that the prelude had been sufficient, and she decided to teach these slippery players a real lesson, just like giving them free reincarnation experience cards, letting them understand the true meaning of life for free.
Besides, we can't let the goddess's arrogant character always play the villain. She has to show her face and act as the good guy!
After all, the race ranking competition is still there, and the goddess will still have to enter the Seven Deadly Sins dungeon later.
The arrogant figure in the sky casually pressed down.
Under the gaze of the golden giant eye, the void collapsed inch by inch like shattered ice, and in the raging energy vortex, a colossal hand that blotted out the sky materialized out of thin air.
Immediately, the palm of the hand slammed down mercilessly onto the player formation below.
Under immense, invisible pressure, the players unleashed their best defensive artifacts, only to be met with despair when the system notification panel turned completely gray.
Since they were still in the preparation phase for the dungeon, all skill and item usage permissions were forcibly disabled, and they could only watch helplessly as the giant hand, which resembled divine punishment, rapidly enlarged in their field of vision.
The judge, whose vest hung in the distance, did not intervene, seemingly just a detached spectator.
This oppressive feeling of being left with no choice but to wait for death caused many players to simply close their eyes.
"Stop. I told you, I don't want to commit any more killings." Just then, an extremely distant and ethereal voice came from the endless horizon.
The voice bore a striking resemblance to the arrogant light and shadow in mid-air, yet it possessed less of the overbearing arrogance and more of a sacred quality.
A familiar, holy radiance emanated from the void, like a gentle spring breeze and rain, blocking the falling giant hand and halting this potentially devastating attack.
With the divine light pouring down from the sky, Mu Zhixi's goddess form officially stepped onto the grand stage she had woven herself.
The white feather covering her eyes fluttered gently in the wind. "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, lambs to their shepherds. Pride, I have given you many chances."
