Collapse Iron: I just transmigrated! You want me to save the Black Tower?!

"Black Tower..."

"Ok?"

"You'll regret it."

Black Tower raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

"Regret?" She turned the little doll around to face her, and gently touched its lips with her fingertip. "Why would I regret it?"

Jiang Jiu didn't speak, he just looked at her.

The sensation came from his lips, like something soft gently caressing him. He knew it was just her fingertips, but the empathy amplified the feeling, making it seem as if she were truly stroking him with her fingertips.

His breathing became somewhat unsteady.

Heita tilted her head, her fingertips moving even more gently, slowly moving from her lips to the corners of her mouth, then down her jawline, stopping at her Adam's apple.

She pressed it gently.

Jiang Jiu's Adam's apple bobbed violently, and a very low groan escaped from deep within his throat.

Black Tower's eyes curved into crescent moons.

"So this place is sensitive too," she muttered to herself. "I'll write it down."

Just as she was about to continue exploring, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a hand.

She looked up and found that Jiang Jiu had somehow walked up to her and was looking down at her. His breathing was still a little rapid, his ears were red as blood, but his eyes were frighteningly deep.

"...Is the testing enough?" he asked, his voice low and hoarse.

Black Tower blinked, and instead of being afraid, he laughed even more happily.

"Not yet," she said, still holding the small doll in her other hand, her fingertips gesturing as if to continue. "There are still many places we haven't tested—"

Before she could finish speaking, her wrist tightened, and she was pulled up. Then, the world spun around her, and her back was pressed against the soft sofa cushions.

Jiang Jiu supported himself above her, pressing down on her wrist with one hand and snatching the small doll from her hand with the other, then casually tossing it aside.

"Hey—mine—"

"We'll play later."

He leaned down, his nose almost touching hers.

"Didn't you want to test the threshold and sensitivity?"

His voice was low: "Then I'll accompany you during the test."

Black Tower blinked, finally sensing a hint of danger.

But this danger only excited her more.

“Okay,” she lifted her chin, meeting his gaze without fear, even with a hint of provocation, “How do we test it?”

Jiang Jiu stared at her for two seconds, then suddenly chuckled softly.

The laughter sent a chill down Black Tower's spine.

You'll find out soon enough.

......

The Black Tower did not record in detail what happened afterward.

It's not that I don't want to remember, it's that I really don't have the energy.

All she knew was that the person who usually seemed so calm could become incredibly serious once pushed to a certain breaking point.

Very serious.

She took it so seriously that she eventually had to admit that it might be better not to be curious about some things.

......

(Yes, I've been too busy these past few days. I'll post a bonus chapter first, and then add the full nine-point chapter in a few days. Thank you all for your support!)

(I've been very restrained!! Shen He, please let me go!!)

Chapter 184 Supporting Shi Jin

At the same time, Onfaros received the message.

At the time, Sai Feier was curled up on the sofa eating an apple when she was suddenly shocked by a series of messages and almost choked.

She picked up her phone and stared at it for a long time, eventually managing to perk up her cat ears.

"Holy crap!!! Xiaobai! Xilian! Come and see!!"

Bai E walked in from outside the door, and seeing her reaction, raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong?"

"Look at this!!!" Sai Fei'er jumped up from the sofa, ran to him in three steps, and shoved the terminal in his face. "That Jiang Jiu guy released that video! The whole world received it!!"

Bai E was forced to lean back, and it took him a while to see what was on the screen.

"What video?"

"That's it! That one! The one from the God Wars!" Sai Fei'er exclaimed, her tail wagging excitedly. "Don't you know anything? Never mind, it's not important! Hurry, look! I can't resist taking action!"

Bai Er went from being puzzled to curious, and then to shocked after watching the video.

"..."

"???!"

Sai Feier raised an eyebrow: "So? How about we write a review for that guy Na Kexia and send it over?"

Bai E coughed lightly.

"This means they've completely broken ties with Xianzhou..."

The Immortal Ship is no small force; on the contrary, it ranks among the top in the entire universe.

"Pretty much," Sai Fei'er took a bite of her apple and chewed it. "But I think he did the right thing. Xianzhou was dragging their feet. If it were me, I would have flipped the table long ago."

Xi Lian came out from the inner room, saw their reactions, and blinked: "Are you talking about the Immortal Boat?"

“Yes,” Bai Er nodded, “now the whole world knows.”

Xi Lian was silent for two seconds, then sighed softly.

"He must have... given them a chance."

“He definitely gave it to us,” Sai Fei’er said. “Although he seems cold, he is actually very reasonable. He will definitely give us a chance when he can.”

She paused, then shook the apple in her hand.

"But if you give it to him and he doesn't use it, then don't blame him for being impolite."

Bai E nodded and looked at the image on his phone.

"Next, things are likely to get chaotic on the Immortal Ship side."

Sai Fei stretched, looking like she was eager to stir up trouble: "Whatever, all I know is it's time to clean house for the Hunting! What do you all think?"

Bai E raised an eyebrow and smiled: "Need I say more? In any case, I'll stand unconditionally on Jiang Jiu's side."

"Good job!"

Bai E stretched his body slightly and laughed, "No matter what, I am also a Great Lord of Annihilation. As the envoy of destruction, isn't it only natural for me to unconditionally side with my colleagues?"

Xi Lian smiled softly, picked up her phone, and began to edit a message.

Saifei leaned closer: "Remember to contact Na Kexia and Ladio. The Academy of Knowledge should also need someone to make connections."

"Tell them to make a statement quickly, or they'll lose their credibility once the Immortal Boat side has reacted."

.......

Screw Star.

After looking at the released video, Screw Gum thought for a moment and then directly vouched for the release of this news.

Authenticity of guarantee, reliability of guarantee, guarantee...

Almost immediately after he finished doing that, multiple messages flooded into his communication terminal.

Multiple messages are displayed on the screen at the same time.

Inquiries came from the company, the Bo Shi Society, and several neutral parties, all seeking to verify the authenticity of the video.

Luo Sigumu guessed that they probably couldn't contact Jiang Jiu, so they resorted to contacting him as a second choice.

Or perhaps it's for some other reason.

However, none of this matters to ScrewGumm.

He didn't reply to anyone immediately, but instead sent a message to Jiang Jiu first:

"As we have seen, the logic is: once this matter is made public, the Immortal Ship will be caught in a media storm, and the alliance may split. If support is needed, Screw Star will be ready to go at any time."

Only after sending the message did he begin to deal with the flood of inquiries.

The first one comes from the Broad Knowledge Society.

"Lord Screws, did you provide that video? How authentic is it?"

ScrewGumm replied:

"The authenticity has been verified by multiple parties. The video was not provided by me, but the source is reliable."

The second one comes from a representative of a neutral force.

"Lord Screws, what impact will this have on the global landscape?"

ScrewGumm replied:

"The impact is being assessed. We advise all parties to remain calm and await further information."

Then there was another one, from...that summer.

"Lord Screws, I've heard you have a good relationship with Timefall. Please tell him that Onpharos is ready to be deployed at any time. Also, Latio asked me to ask if the Academy of Knowledge should make a public statement?"

Without much hesitation, Screws replied:

"I have conveyed the following logic: the timing of your public statements is up to you. In the current situation, every bit of support adds to our strength."
