The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 1152 Willing to Take the Bait

Rise Kirigiri's expression turned cold.

"I see."

"Two 'unknowns,' is this the source of your confidence?"

"I heard you're a reclusive family, right? So you probably don't know just how fast the situation is changing?"

She looked at him with pity.

"Of course, these things will not be made public on the StarNet; only we ourselves know the truth."

A slight smile played on her lips, and she regained a sense of composure as if she were in complete control.

“Take the Hidden Mist Clan for example. We have now merged with two other clans, and we originally had three ‘Unknown Ones’. With the addition of two from the merged clans, we now have a total of five.”

"And you, mere two—"

She hadn't finished speaking.

Another door opened.

It was a space piled up with vesicles and vines.

As the vines slowly parted, the aura of falling into an abyss resurfaced, coalescing into a figure in the center.

It was a woman wearing a red robe.

The charred skin was gradually fading away, revealing delicate, snow-white skin, but only on half of the face. The other half of the face still bore traces of charring, but orchids bloomed among the cracks.

The orchids spread from her face all over her body.

The orchids bloomed in layers, and in the center of the petals were even more complete little faces, quietly looking at Kirikiri Rise with scrutiny and threat.

It was Zhang Lan.

As she drew closer to Tolena, perhaps because Tolena had relinquished a portion of her faith to her, she gradually gained something new, and thus, her own flesh and blood grew back on the corpse that had originally been parasitized.

The key point is that even if Kirigiri Rize doesn't know who this is, she can still tell that this is another "unknown one".

"Sir, who is this...the intruder?"

The boy's voice suddenly rang out.

From above.

Rise Kirigiri looked up and saw a boy standing upside down in the air.

His eyes looked at her with curiosity, carrying a maturity beyond his years.

Along with him appeared countless palaces upside down in the air, one after another, all in a state of imminent collapse, as if they would fall completely at any moment, crushing her beneath them into a pool of flesh and blood.

Risa Kirigiri felt fear again.

again!
"Where did so many of you 'unknowns' come from!"

Rise Kirigiri just couldn't understand it.

"How could it have hidden until now? In this StarNet era? Did it fall from the sky?"

"There's nothing strange about that, is there?"

A soft voice rang out.

"Perhaps we really do come from outer space."

Immediately afterwards, a golden dragon soared through the sky.

It did not actually fly in from the outside, but rather seemed to manifest from some deeper national destiny and divine mandate. It first circled in the dark space before slowly descending and transforming into a tall female figure.

Her gaze was slightly cold as she calmly glanced at Kirikiri Rise.

But with just that one glance, Rise Kirigiri felt like she couldn't breathe, as if her lungs were being heavily compressed.

That wasn't the gaze of "one person".

It was as heavy as the weight of the nation, the people, and the mountains of corpses and seas of blood pressing down on it all.

As the head of a top-tier noble family, Kirigiri Rise commands tens of millions of subordinates.

But compared to the woman in front of her, she felt insignificant, as if the woman was the real leader.

In the woman, she seemed to see Dr. Bell II.

No, it's still different.

The second generation was more like a scientific research leader.

And this...

He was an emperor who could make mountains and rivers bow down and all people submit.

Where did these monsters come from?

More importantly—

In this way, the number of "unknowns" on the other side is now the same as the number on her side, and many of the arguments she had prepared have now become a joke.

hateful.

How could such a powerful group of people suddenly appear?

This really puts us in a dilemma.

Her current situation has even become extremely dangerous.

He had originally planned to persuade her with excellent recruitment offers so she wouldn't have to worry about voluntarily venturing into danger, but who could have imagined...

Caught between a rock and a hard place, Liu Sheng calmly spoke:
"Don't worry, I won't kill you, nor will I annex you. I have no interest in you nobles of the Spectral Star."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not sure how much blood you have on your hands."

"Furthermore, I know that the Kirigakure family specializes in assassinations; as long as the money is right, they'll do it. You seem to have no bottom line."

Rise Kirigiri's face immediately darkened.

"Besides, although you came to test us, I can see that you did hold back, so we don't really have any enmity."

"Although we can't be family, we might be allies. Didn't you say there's a lot of information that only you know and we don't? How about we share that information?"

"What do you want to do?" Kirigiri Rize asked suspiciously. "Do you really want to become an independent noble?"

"Can't?"

“But your population…”

"You don't need to worry about that. We'll figure something out. We'll also ask for your help with getting it to the Supreme Council."

“Perhaps when we appear on the show, we can help each other out.” Kirigiri Rise narrowed her eyes and carefully re-examined Liu Sheng, as well as the other four “Unknowns” whose auras were not weak.

She remained silent for a moment.

In the end, I agreed.

……

Later, even Rise Kirigiri herself couldn't quite remember how much she had said in that dark space.

She was still somewhat dazed when she left.

What an amazing family.

They even said they could find a way to gather enough people?

They don't even want to annex the lands of the nobility?
How can that be done?
But for some reason, she inexplicably felt that the young family head named Liu Sheng—

Maybe it really can be done.

Even after returning to the Kirigakure family, the dazed look on Kirigiri Rize's face had not completely disappeared.

The other four "unknowns" had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as they saw her return, they immediately surrounded her.

"How was it? Why did it take you so long?"

"Did the head of the family agree?"

“If we add one more, wouldn’t we have more people than the Tyran family? At least we can put up a fight then.”

"Yes, patriarch, what do you think?"

However, Rise Kirigiri slowly shook her head.

She did not agree.

The surrounding area erupted in chaos.

"how is this possible?"

Didn't you explain the reasoning to her clearly?

"That's right, Patriarch, does she really think she can hold on with just her own people?"

One person, however, was more rational and said, "Let Ms. Kirigiri finish speaking; there must have been some unexpected change in the process."

Someone's heart skipped a beat, and they exclaimed in surprise:

"Could it be that there is more than one 'unknown' on the other side?"

Rise Kirigiri nodded.

"That's it... You might have a hard time taking on two by yourself. Let's go together now and figure out a way to persuade that girl!"

"Did you tell her that you had not just one or two, but five?"

"If you still won't agree to this, you're really stupid."

"They might not be stupid; they're just waiting for the right price to go up and try to get a bigger profit."

"Heh, I really want to meet this kind of insatiable person."

As they spoke, they were about to get up.

However, she was stopped by Rize Kirigiri.

"and many more!"

"Wait for what?"

"You...can't beat them."

"what?"

Everyone was taken aback.

Rise Kirigiri looked at them and said, word by word:

"The other party is not just one, nor just two."

"In fact... there are five in total."

Now, the crowd, which had been so indignant just moments before, all fell silent.

half an hour-

"...Impossible, right?"

"On this colorful planet, how could five of them suddenly appear?"

"No, we must tell the other families about this."

Risa Kirigiri did not stop her.

The feeling of being pinned to the ground, dragged into that dark space without mirrors, and seeing those high-ranking beings one after another still lingered in her mind.

That sense of frustration felt so real.

It was so real that even now, when she thinks about it, her heart still feels a little heavy.

Therefore, she also wanted to know where the limits of that Liu Sheng family head were, otherwise she was not sure whether she should become an ally.

What's more, they want the Kirigakure family to speak on their behalf in front of the Supreme Council in the future.
This makes it even more important to consider whether they are truly worth it.

Thus, news of a newly risen family quickly spread among the nobles of the planet Variegated.

……

On the other side, the new world's floating islands.

"Aren't we afraid of being found out?" Ariel asked with some concern.

Standing high on the floating island, Liu Sheng looked out at the colorful sky in the distance. The Star Network and the Sky Network intertwined and flowed in her vision, and information jumped between the floating islands, more active than ever before.

“I’m not worried about her not spreading it, I’m only worried about her not spreading it at all.”

“We need a reputation now, we need everyone to know us, so that we can quickly get noticed by Parliament.”

"Then--"

"Maybe it can even attract some small fry?"

"Even the big fish in our target."

Liu Sheng's eyes flickered.
