Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

96511 was originally a low-level community, and there was absolutely no benefit to be gained from fighting against the Divine Sound Society here.

The title "Mentor" was given to her by the Heavenly King General, who called her "MOSS".

Isn't that somewhat inappropriate?

She turned her head and said, "The next level of option."

But unlike birds...

The mentor offered cold advice.

Nothing else.

The saintess called out, and a ball of light suddenly appeared in the room: "Is there anything I can do for you, my lady?"

Tang Yuan asked, "Teacher, what should we do now?"

what……

The saint remained silent.

"..."

What the saint saw was what it saw; what the saint heard was what it heard; and even more remarkably—

……

The light cluster shone even more brilliantly.

The saintess shook her head and said, "The next best option."

"tutor."

The saintess looked at her mentor, her azure eyes blinking gently, a hint of nostalgia showing on her fair face.

This was unexpected by the saintess.

The mentor, his gaze flickering, continued his calm and objective analysis: "This plan is far too demanding for you. Although I am not human, I understand how embarrassing it is for a human to go to great lengths to support a real competitor. Moreover, we do not yet know the capabilities of General Misato. If she is indeed extraordinary, then so be it; but if she is incompetent, then the feasibility and success rate of this plan are questionable."

"The Holy Maiden's meaning is quite clear; she wants Zuo Chang to realize her worth. The course of action is also very clear: we will remain still and observe the conflict between Zuo Chang and the Divine Sound Society; once Zuo Chang can no longer withstand the attack, we will descend like divine intervention to lend him a helping hand! In this way, Zuo Chang will understand that—compared to General Jianli, the Holy Maiden's help is far greater!"

"!"

Tang Yuan trembled, completely convinced: "As expected of a teacher, your insights are penetrating and so true!"

It will be a little later than the last watch.

Chapter 169 Lord of the Forest

The more Dang Jue thought about it, the more reasonable he felt his analysis made sense.

He turned to look at Tang Yuan and asked, "Is the Whispering Forest event almost over? How's it going?"

Tang Yuan is the organizer of the Whispering Forest. He cannot see the specific images, but he has a data panel that shows general information.

He opened the panel, glanced at it, and frowned slightly: "Teacher, it seems that General Tianwang is about to win."

The overview is clearly written on the panel:

[Number of surviving adventurer groups]: Seven.

【Azure Beast】: Extremely rare tree species, 100% planting progress, 3 surviving members. Overall rating: No. 1.

【Eight Spiders】: Tree species rarity is moderate, planting progress is 35%, and there are 2 surviving members. Overall rating: Second.

After that, it became unwatchable.

Dang Jue was greatly puzzled: "How can the gap be so big? General Tianwang has the advantage in all data, and his planting progress is far ahead. Why?"

Tang Yuan shook his head: "I don't know. After all, he is a legendary figure, so it's normal that he has some unique insights."

What's the point of comparing these two!

There are only about ten minutes left until the end of the Whispering Forest.

Based on past experience, the outcome of the Whispering Forest is decided by the smallest margin, and the last few minutes are the sprint stage, during which no one will slack off.

But the gap between the contestants is so large now that it's probably irreversible, and nothing the other contestants do will help!

Dang Jue frowned secretly, thinking, "What should we do? We previously announced that whoever wins the Whispering Forest will receive the support of the reading club. If General Tianwang wins, this..."

He began to seriously consider the feasibility of breaking his promise.

at the same time.

The Forest of Whispers.

The glutton pursed his red lips, looking as if he were smiling.

She released her magic to form a spherical shield, isolating the water and protecting the trees in front of her. About eight hours earlier, a turbid torrent suddenly surged in from the southeast with tremendous force.

The Glutton didn't know what was happening; all she knew was that she had to protect her sapling, or it would be eliminated.

Zhu Yuan stood to one side.

He looked around and saw that what was around him was no longer a vast expanse of water, but underwater.

The water level in the square basin was already above his head; he had to jump up to see the surface.

Although their saplings were not washed away by the flood, the soil beneath them was too wet due to the excessive irrigation, making it unsuitable for growth.

If it weren't for the abundant spiritual energy here, we would probably have drowned long ago!

Zhu Yuan calculated the time and said, "Eater, hang in there! The game will be over in about ten more minutes! The Whispering Forest has suddenly flooded, and we're definitely not the only ones affected. Others don't have your strength, so the advantage is still on our side!"

The glutton scoffed, lamenting Zhu Yuan's ignorance.

In her understanding, the concept of flooding does not exist in the Whispering Forest.

Now that it has appeared, it must be man-made.

That person—

Was it intentional or accidental?

"It seems the intelligence was accurate. That man named Zuo Chang really might be the legendary Heavenly King General..."

Given the terrifying renown and influence of the Heavenly King General, the Divine Sound Society concealed and blocked information about Zuo Chang.

Of all those who knew Zuo Chang's true identity, a few were placed under house arrest, while the majority were silenced.

Apart from Zuo Chang's people, there are no more than ten people in 96511 who know about this.

Those with an appetite are one of them.

She guessed...

No.

She was certain that the inexplicable flood before her eyes must have been the work of General Tianwang.

The second phase will end in 3 minutes.

A prompt message appears before your eyes.

Zhu Yuan encouraged, "There are only three minutes left!"

"..."

The person with an appetite glanced sideways and smiled broadly.

Three minutes passed quickly.

When the time limit was up, the environment collapsed and the Glutton reappeared at the Eight Spiders headquarters.

Zhu Yuan looked around and asked, "Did we win?"

"Lost."

The man with a gluttonous appetite spoke casually, a smile still playing on his lips.

She turned to look at Connor Judd, who was standing quietly to one side, and asked, "Judd, what happened? You failed to kill that Yaotai Zhenyu?"

"I'm very sorry. Yaotai Zhen Gong was exceptionally powerful; I was killed by her in just one exchange."

Connor Judd kept his head down.

The Glutton smiled slightly and said, "This failure was not without its value. Judd, I believe now is the time... you should make a sacrifice."

Connor Judd nodded: "The food sacrifice, I understand."

Kara

Kara.

Cracks appeared on Connor Judd's body surface. Zhu Yuan, who was standing to the side, was stunned and for a moment did not know whether he was a person or a piece of porcelain.

Purple smoke seeped from the cracks on Judd's body and dissolved into the air.

In just a few breaths, the 2.2-meter-tall Connor Judd vanished without a trace, like powder dissolving in water!

"This……"

Zhu Yuan raised one hand and asked, "Where are my brothers, Jia De and the glutton?"

The Glutton laughed, “Don’t worry, this is Judd’s destiny. He is a vessel for ‘madness,’ not human. When necessary, he will transform into ‘factors’ that permeate the city, paving the way for me.”

Clearly, Zhu Yuan had no idea what the Glutton was talking about.

He was inexplicably irritated and thought to himself, "What nonsense is he spouting? Damn it—does he really think he's someone important, trying to act tough with me!"

Zhu Yuan did not notice anything wrong with the curses in his heart, and even thought it was perfectly reasonable.

But the appetite noticed.

"Frenzy, anger, greed, resentment, and lust... unleash your vile desires! I am the Glutton, and I am powerful because of my desires."

The factor is spreading.

……

……

[Game over. Congratulations! You have won the forest's blessing and become the masters of this forest.]

A message appears: Game over.
