After the Martial Arts Witch died, her exclusive Seed of Lamentation was sealed and kept by Destiny. Unexpectedly, this being who had long since died has returned today.
Knowing their opponent's strengths and weaknesses, the two dared not underestimate them in the slightest and immediately activated their full forms, raising their own condition to its peak.
The two men stared warily at the seemingly frail yet extremely imposing figure.
The Martial Arts Witch's gaze was fixed solely on Cecilia, an instinctive attraction between equals. She chuckled, "I've heard you're very strong, that no one can truly kill you?"
“You can give it a try,” Cecilia said in a deep voice.
"Let's wait until next time." The Martial Arts Witch sighed, slightly regretful. "The time is not right. Today, I only want to take away the Golden Wood Divine Envoy. I advise you not to stop me anymore, otherwise, once the war starts, the entire capital will be razed to the ground."
Cecilia remained silent, quickly weighing the pros and cons in her mind.
In terms of combat strength, they might not necessarily lose in a two-on-two situation.
However, the headquarters is located in the heart of Kyoto, a densely populated area. If a major war breaks out, only ordinary humans will ultimately suffer.
After a long silence, she let out a soft breath and conceded, "Fine. You may leave now; I will not stop you."
"A wise choice."
The Space Witch appeared beside the Martial Arts Witch, precisely locking onto the coordinates of the Divine Kingdom and connecting to the spatial portal. The two figures vanished into it in an instant.
Seeing the formidable enemy retreat, Viviana's tense nerves relaxed slightly, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Destiny is in your hands..."
Before she could even feel relieved, she heard resolute words in her ears. Then, just as the passage was about to close, Cecilia transformed into a streak of light and rushed straight inside.
"???"
Viviana froze on the spot, but her shock only lasted a moment before her anger erupted. She screamed, "Cecilia, are you crazy?! Do you really think you're invincible? You dare to storm enemy headquarters? You arrogant and stupid bastard! How could I possibly..."
The angry shouts gradually faded, eventually turning into utter powerlessness.
She slumped to her knees, looking around at the shattered space around her, but there was no place that could connect to the place where the three of them had disappeared, lacking the crucial coordinates.
…………
At this moment, within the realm of the gods.
Cecilia successfully broke through the spatial passage just as it was about to close. With her feet firmly planted on the solid ground, she cautiously surveyed this unknown and strange world.
With clear blue skies, drifting clouds, and a gentle breeze, the scenery is serene and tranquil, resembling a secluded paradise.
"Hehe, interesting."
The martial arts witch, who was about to leave, turned around and looked at the magical girl who had barged in with great interest.
"What should we do?" the Space Witch asked.
The Martial Arts Demoness clenched her fists, her eyes burning with fighting spirit, and laughed loudly: "Since she has chosen her own death, then I will naturally grant her wish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an overwhelming fighting spirit soared into the sky. The blazing sun seemed to explode, and the clear blue sky was swallowed by gloom. The entire world was covered by a chilling aura.
"A bunch of scum who cower in the shadows, today I will single-handedly wipe out your so-called divine kingdom!"
Cecilia stood with her gun in hand, her posture as upright as a pine tree, radiating brilliant light, her aura in no way inferior to that of her enemy.
…………
Inside the minister's office, with only three minutes remaining before the promise was to be fulfilled, Lin Guohui remained calm and methodically issued instructions to Mu hope.
"Let's leave it at that for now. The videos and interview records I've prepared are sufficient evidence to clear my name of all suspicion."
"understand!"
At this moment, Mu hope had shed her previous panic and confusion, and her face was filled with only heartfelt respect.
A crisis involving numerous magical girls and nearly shaking the foundations of headquarters was actually resolved by the minister with ease within half an hour.
She dared not delay for even a moment, bowed slightly, and quickly left the office to issue the latest instructions to the numerous communications personnel.
After dealing with the current crisis, Lin Guohui looked at Councilor Su, who was squatting on the sofa with his head down, and sighed, "Your scheme is indeed ingenious. Even in the worst-case scenario, you can use this incident to ruin my reputation among magical girls, and then take the opportunity to seize part of the Destiny management rights from me."
He paused, his tone a mixture of sarcasm and praise: "Unfortunately, such a flawless plan ultimately fell short of human calculation. You meticulously planned and laid out your schemes step by step, but you overlooked the possibility that Jinmu might be a hidden traitor."
Even after witnessing Kaneki's transformation firsthand, Representative Su still couldn't accept the fact, repeatedly muttering, "How could he be a traitor... how could he possibly be a traitor..."
Suddenly, as if he had just realized something, he abruptly raised his head, stared intently at Lin Guohui, who was sitting in a high position, and questioned, "Since you knew his identity all along, why did you let it go unchecked?!"
"Hehe, because I discovered something even more interesting."
Lin Guohui chuckled and began to explain: "After I discovered Jin Mu's identity as an internal traitor, I secretly investigated his past and found that he had close ties with the government. This naturally aroused my suspicion. After all, you people are always thinking about seizing power and undermining me."
"I deliberately let things slide to see how you schemed, while secretly plotting everything. To be honest, if you were a little more clever and patient, the government could have benefited. Unfortunately, there are too many fools."
Representative Su wholeheartedly agreed with this.
If it weren't for some fool who prematurely launched the second step of the "Dragon Slaying Plan," the government could have easily extricated itself from the situation and avoided the backlash.
But since things had come to this, he could only stubbornly insist: "You were just lucky."
"Hehe, is that so?"
Lin Guohui leisurely boiled water and brewed tea. While waiting for the water to boil, he continued calmly, "Let me calculate how many magical girls you have secretly recruited in order to seize power. Among the nine leaders, Meng Liuli, Jiang Yao, Yang Zhi... roughly speaking, more than half of the leaders have already sided with the government."
"Besides, you must have secretly recruited many magical girls stationed in major cities by offering them huge rewards. You originally planned to incite everyone to launch an attack at a crucial moment and deliver a fatal blow to me. Am I right?"
"So what if it is!" Councilor Su retorted, looking like he wouldn't back down even if he lost the argument.
Since his plan to seize power had failed and the government would have little chance to intervene in matters of destiny, he decided to stop hiding it and openly admit everything.
"Very good, honest enough." Lin Guohui suddenly smiled, grinning to reveal a row of slightly yellow teeth. "But how do you know that those people you've won over might not be pawns I've already planted?"
"What do you mean by that?!" Councilor Su was shocked.
"It's nothing, I just wanted you to give those old fogies in the government a heads-up." Lin Guohui smiled knowingly. "Don't assume everyone is heartless. I've been in charge of Tianming for twelve years, creating numerous rules and regulations. Do you really think they can be so easily bought off?"
"Very well! Lin Guohui is quite something! His deep cunning is truly chilling!" Councilor Su laughed angrily, feeling utterly defeated.
It turns out that from the very beginning, the government was being manipulated by the other side.
"You're too kind!"
Lin Guohui poured boiling water into the teacup, then raised the steaming cup with a relaxed smile, "The tea is so fragrant, would you like a cup?"
"I'm not in a good mood, I'll drink it next time."
Representative Su turned and stormed off in a huff.
"No problem, I'm always ready. After all, we're 'family and friends'."
Inside the office, only Lin Guohui remained, sitting leisurely alone, continuing to enjoy the loneliness of a victor.
With a "bang," the door was pushed open.
"Cough cough cough..."
Lin Guohui choked until his cheeks turned red and his throat felt hot. It took him a while to recover. He looked at the person in front of him and said in surprise, "Viviana? It's you. Where's Cecilia?"
"Minister, something terrible has happened! That idiot Cecilia has stormed into the enemy's lair all by herself!"
"what?!"
Lin Guohui suddenly stood up, his five fingers clenched together, and the teacup in his hand was smashed to pieces.
“How could she do something so impulsive? Cecilia has gone mad, completely mad… Why didn’t you stop her?” Lin Guohui was no longer calm and composed.
"It was so sudden, I didn't even have time to react," Viviana said helplessly. "What should we do now?"
"What else can we do? Gather manpower and think of a way to rescue them!"
Chapter 111 The Real Kite
Inside the hotel room, Zhong Hui sat cross-legged in meditation, oblivious to the whispers around him.
On the other side, Sousei and Chika frowned, discussing in hushed tones the series of events caused by the K1 Titan, their minds uneasy.
Cang Xing said, "I have a feeling something's not right. Our initial intention was to resist the development of K1 Titan and stop it to protect our rights. But now, how come everyone's criticism is directed at Minister Lin? Some people are even petitioning for the government to step in and 'uphold justice'!"
Chika said, "I feel like there's an invisible hand controlling everything from the shadows. Maybe we've been used from the very beginning."
"Then tell me, is Minister Lin... actually a mole?"
"It's hard to say. But I'm sure of one thing: if he can't produce strong evidence to prove his innocence, even if he's not the mole, given the current public opinion, he will inevitably lose the trust of the vast majority of magical girls."
"If he really loses everyone's trust, wouldn't he be in a precarious position as minister?"
"I didn't realize you could think of this."
"Don't look down on me!" Cang Xing pouted in dissatisfaction, then glanced down at her phone screen, her voice suddenly turning serious, "There's only one minute left until the promised half hour..."
Qianjia sighed softly, her tone tinged with regret: "It seems that Minister Lin is powerless to reverse the situation this time."
"Ding dong~"
Just as the two tacitly agreed that the situation was settled and the government was about to reap the benefits, a crisp cell phone notification suddenly rang.
Immediately afterwards, messages from the communications officer popped up on both of their phones one after another, one after another.
Cangxing and Qianjia were both stunned for a moment, then quickly clicked on the pop-up window and read through it. After reading all the content, the two were so shocked that they sat on the sofa, speechless for a long time.
The truth has now come to light: the real developer of the K1 Titan was Dr. Kaneki, a traitor who had been hiding within the Destiny organization all along.
Lin Guohui had already sensed something amiss, but chose to remain patient and bide his time, deliberately letting the situation escalate while secretly laying a long-term plan to catch up. Now, it was time for him to reveal his true colors.
The message included records of Kaneki's visit to the storage room, footage of the incident, and a photo of him sneaking into a government building at the end of the message.
Their intentions are obvious.
"Minister Lin... that game of chess was absolutely brilliant!"
Sousei and Chika were deeply shocked, their eyes brimming with sincere admiration and respect.
At the same time, these bombshell announcements, like snowflakes falling from the sky, were rapidly delivered to every magical girl.
After everyone learned the whole truth and understood Lin Guohui's long-term forbearance and planning, they had nothing to say but admiration.
Immediately afterwards, another, even more explosive piece of news spread among all the magical girls.
The report indicates that all of Kaneki's actions were secretly orchestrated by the government, and the two were already connected. The goal was to use the public opinion sparked by K1 Titan to bring down Lin Guohui, seize control of the magical girls, and then use the means at their disposal to exploit all the magical girls in the future.
That photo of Jinmu entering the government is irrefutable evidence and Lin Guohui's silent accusation!
The news spread like wildfire among the magical girls.
