Chapter 674 This is the God of Puppetry!
The past day has left Tata, the God of War, with mixed feelings.

First, he was paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair, not daring to be angry or speak out, and even felt a little honored. After all, he was being beaten by the noble Queen of the conglomerate, Gabriel! Although she sent people to do it.

Secondly, its ranking plummeted, and Tata Group's stock price also jumped.

Thirdly, even though she herself is now tragically confined to a wheelchair, she is still accused of imitating Da Chun and riding on Da Chun's coattails—but it must be said that she has indeed gained popularity, with more people coming to see her out of admiration, which still brings a little surprise to Tata.

But Tata still held onto the belief that the puppet's threads were still intact. She had misunderstood the puppet earlier, thinking it was afraid of Master Raven, but that wasn't the case; it was a trick by the puppet to lure Master Raven.

And now, breaking news has shocked the world: following yesterday's Oak City flower being harassed by a puppet nightmare, this morning the flowers of Gem, Silver, and Bronze cities were also harassed by a puppet nightmare. The power of this is simply...

Just then, Tata received a text message from Alfa!

Tata immediately logged onto the dark web: "I'm here!"

Alpha asked, "Did you see the news just now?"

Tata hurriedly asked, "I saw it, but the puppet is still digging in the tomb and hasn't come out yet. How could it affect the city flowers of the other three cities at the same time?"

Alpha said, "This proves that this puppet—perhaps we should call it the God of Puppets—is incredibly powerful. When I first controlled the Evil God Bone Dragon to break out of the city, I was killed by the Giant Raven. I thought it was Master Raven, but I couldn't understand how he launched the attack. Now I understand. There are two possibilities: one is that Master Raven was already under his control, or at least partially controlled, and that part of him had already infiltrated the God's Tomb. The other possibility is that Master Raven is 120 years old and was one of the earliest participants in the construction of Oak City. Master Raven must have had some kind of connection with this puppet a hundred years ago, which is why he now chooses to submit to the King of Oak City, even at the cost of giving up all his status and openly turning against the two great figures on the radio!"

Tata exclaimed excitedly, "So, the God of Puppetry possesses the Raven Master, the Evil God Bone Dragon, and the Tree God Seed. Only this Evil God Bone Dragon could fly across the three cities in these two days, spreading terrifying nightmares to the city beauties! That's why the three city beauties all dreamed of puppets and evil dragons!"

Alpha said, "That's right! Its power is terrifying. Beta and I discussed it, and Beta decided to immediately emerge from the magic mirror among the furniture pile and communicate with it to express her submission. Of course, there might be a misunderstanding at the first meeting, and Beta will ask you to be a witness. At that time, you should receive a connection from the magic puppet's threads."

Tata exclaimed excitedly, "Understood! I'm ready. By the way, why isn't there any nightmare report about Black Iron City Flower?"

"I'm not sure about that, and it's probably not important. Beta will take action immediately."

……

Oak City Tomb.

Among the furniture piled up nearby, a broken mirror and dressing table emitted a black light and shadow.

A shadow demon emerged from the mirror and coalesced into a black figure. Just then, the goblin's digging sound abruptly stopped—it had clearly been discovered!

Beta immediately cried out, "King Pinocchio, I am your loyal minister, Sisimi!"

The puppet was a little confused: "Come out here!"

"Your subject has come out!"

Beta floated nervously in front of the puppet. Seeing that he was taller than the puppet, Beta immediately compressed himself into a smaller, denser black figure, only half the height of the puppet.

The puppet was stunned: "I don't remember having a minister named Sismi."

Beta immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, you have it now! I am a Shadow Demon, willing to pledge allegiance to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty's servant, the God of War Tata, can testify to this."

The puppet was perplexed: "Shadow Fiend? You don't seem to have a physical form."

"Yes, this way I can infiltrate many places that normal people cannot enter, and I can also teleport through mirrors. These are extraordinary skills that will definitely serve Your Majesty."

The puppet was even more troubled: "What I mean is, since you don't have a physical form, I can't control you with my threads, which makes me very uneasy." Beta said urgently: "But I will prove my loyalty to Your Majesty with my actions! I don't need Your Majesty's control, so as not to distract Your Majesty."

The puppet thought for a moment: "This saw isn't very handy for me, and I also need a chisel and a plane. Can you get me a set?"

"I will definitely find a way!"

"Go, go, don't disappoint this king."

Beta breathed a sigh of relief and immediately contacted Alpha: "Old buddy, this king is easier to talk to than I thought."

Alpha sighed, "It seems I underestimated him. True super-strong people are easy to talk to, while the weak are always on guard. We can completely shift our strategic focus to him, and even have the entire Tata team serve him, ultimately relying on him to achieve our comeback in the virtual world."

Beta laughed and said, "It's still on guard, giving us a test."

Alpha laughed and said, "Isn't being completely unguarded a sign of a problem with intelligence? We can't possibly follow an idiot. This first mission not only has to be accomplished well, but it can't be done with ordinary tools!"

Beta asked, "Shall we get the God of War Tata to cooperate?"

Alpha thought for a moment: "No! The Ten Elders definitely suspect that he has a connection with the puppet, and any move he makes may be monitored by the Ten Elders."

Beta said, "In that case, we can have him do something else to mislead the Ten Elders and divert their attention. Then I'll try to steal a set of tools from the Craftsmen's Association. Although it will be difficult, the puppet hasn't specified a timeframe."

Alpha said, "Very good, you can scout first, and then I will be deployed to assist when needed."

"Then let's get started..."

……

Tata's phone rang again; it was another text message from Alpha.

Tata logged back onto the dark web: "I'm here! Waiting for the puppet's threads to contact me."

Alpha said, "Beta has already reached an agreement with the King. The King needs a set of top-quality tools. You can find a way to get them, but you are being monitored by the Ten Elders, so you absolutely cannot directly engage in any related actions. Your task is to mislead the Ten Elders' attention and cover for Beta. Do you understand?"

Tata paused for a moment: "What level of misleading do you want?"

"The more misleading, the better!"

"Understood! I will definitely do it well."

After ending the contact, Tata fell into deep thought. In truth, given her current state where even moving her wheelchair was difficult, it would be quite challenging to do anything to fully mislead Elder Ten.

Suddenly, Tata remembered the news from the slums yesterday: Gabriel had helped the village beauty from the Southern Canyon, who was studying abroad, open a clinic in the slums!

Since I was injured and disabled, and am a patient, it's perfectly reasonable for me to go to her clinic!

The key point is, she's the village beauty, right? Tenth Brother must value her highly. As long as I go there, Tenth Brother will definitely pay close attention.

Once Tata figured it out, she immediately called for reinforcements: "Someone please push me into the slums..."
