Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

Now that they've already achieved this, why don't the gods go any further?

We should introduce better systems and more comprehensive benefits to meet everyone's needs!

Naturally, people would make that demand.

Musuogen was no exception to this custom.

Because he is not like Zuo Chang, who can collect a large amount of valuable resources in a very short time and improve his cultivation level in an instant.

Having endured half a lifetime of poverty and hardship, it's perfectly normal to have some dark thoughts in one's heart.

"What? What are you talking about?"

Just as the atmosphere was about to become serious, a clear voice suddenly rang out.

The Great Witch Hyacinth approached with a smile, raising her hand in greeting: "Hello, Mr. Zuo Chang. Oh, and Mr. Mu Suogen too."

Before Zuo Chang could speak, she immediately turned around, showing the person she was carrying on her back—

Melville.

"Oh dear, Mr. Zuo Chang, could you please arrange a room for Melville to lie down? She is not in any danger, but she is very weak."

Zuo Chang lowered his head and looked at the demons of war.

The War Demon squatted on the ground and said, "After I descended, although I used my own power, I still used Melville's body. I fully mobilized her potential, performing at her peak every moment. It is only natural that she felt tired, after all, that was something she had never touched before, 'her limit'."

Zuo Chang asked, "Can't you be a little more restrained?"

“Broken bones grow back stronger, and Melville will gain a deeper understanding of her body after pushing her limits. This is beneficial.”

Oh……

Because it sounded reasonable, Zuo Chang accepted it.

Wu Meng, who was standing to one side, stepped forward, picked up Melville, and carried him into the mansion.

Zuo Chang only knew that Melville had been attacked, but not the details.

He asked, "What happened? Who attacked you?"

Hyacinth waved her hand and shook her head, her pink hair fluttering in the wind: "I don't know, don't ask me, I don't understand. I just went back to find you, and I didn't expect to be ambushed as soon as I knocked on the door! Luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise Melville and I would have been dead! Ah, Mr. War Demon also deserves credit, his sealing technique was really powerful!"

The War Demon snorted coldly: "Hmph... Basically, it's all my doing. Your Majesty, this is exactly what I wanted to report to you—the attacker was a member of the Hessé clan named Helen Hessé. Although she is not highly regarded, she is indeed a legitimate offspring with divine blood flowing through her veins."

Zuo Chang didn't understand even more.

He looked at the hyacinth and asked, "Do you have a grudge against the Hesei clan?"

"No."

Hyacinth shook her head again, a thoughtful look on her face. She continued, "I've been thinking about it, and there's only one reason I can think of. They might be my die-hard fans who came specifically to get me, since I'm so cute."

Zuo Chang looked at her coldly without saying a word.

Hyacinth sighed and said, "Being an idol is tough. I've encountered many irrational fans like this. This one was a bit extreme, but it's not incomprehensible. Because I'm incredibly charming."

Zuo Chang scoffed: "Don't you have a more reliable guess?"

"Ah, okay."

Hyacinth turned her head and looked at Musuogen: "Those people seem to be looking for Mr. Musuogen. They mentioned Mr. Mu's name."

"?"

Zuo Chang turned his head and looked at Mu Suogen.

Musogen was taken aback and asked blankly, "I don't know anyone from the Hesei clan?"

Zuo Chang pondered for a moment.

He never intended to hide his tracks, otherwise he wouldn't have killed Velen Hessé in the mysterious dungeon.

The only somewhat unexpected thing was—

Came so fast!

It was thought that the Hersey clan would need some time to find 96511, or even never know Zuo Chang's exact location, only that such a person existed.

just now……

The cunning and shrewd Long Ceshi immediately grasped the crux of the matter.

He said, "Your Majesty, it seems that 96511 is not going to stay still. The Hesei clan will not allow us to freely enter and exit the mysterious dungeon. If nothing unexpected happens—something unexpected is about to happen."

Gulu.

Musogen was slightly nervous. He quickly said, "General Zuo, Strategist Long, I absolutely have not committed any rebellion! Why would they be looking for me... Lady Hyacinth, are you sure you didn't mishear me?"

“No, they did mention your name, Melville can vouch for that.” Hyacinth smiled amiably. “Oh, and also. Don’t call me lady, call me the Great Witch.”

"This...how is this possible?"

Musokgen looked very nervous.

Zuo Chang didn't believe he had tipped them off, nor did he think it was his fault. The Herse clan's arrival so quickly was either due to their superior methods or Zuo Chang and Elder Mu's bad luck.

all in all--

"Starting the war in 96511 is actually a good thing, isn't it?" Zuo Chang looked at Long Strategist. "What do you think?"

Long Strategist smiled slightly: "Indeed, this is a good thing. You are General Qibao of 96511, your advantage is too great!"

Chapter 269 Where Do Their Compasses Point?

The problem of the Hersey family can be put aside for now.

Zuo Chang is not worried at all.

Not to mention that he has formed partial alliances with the Dragon Community and the Beast Community. With these two powerful backers by his side, who could possibly overturn his table?

Even in the past, when he and his old subordinates fought one-on-one, he was not afraid of challenges.

The reason is simple.

It's all about having a strong fist.

Under the protection of the divine rules, Zuo Chang fears no demons or monsters.

The most troublesome issue right now is the mysterious dungeon.

"If the promised day arrives and the goddess is 'dismembered,' all the rules she created will vanish. Then—"

That would be a big problem.

In the short term, Zuo Changsheng cannot reach the fifteenth realm and become a supreme expert. Without the constraints of the rules, either the Divine Sound Society or the Hese Clan could easily subdue him.

As noon approached, Zuo Chang turned to the Great Witch and asked, "Hyacinth, what are your next plans?"

"Huh? Me?"

Hyacinth pointed to its own nose.

This pink-haired, seemingly young girl—Zuo Chang guessed she was older than she looked—seemed out of place from the start.

Logically speaking, he would normally appear serious and reserved in front of the Heavenly King General and the renowned Dragon Strategist.

Hyacinth exudes a relaxed aura, with a carefree and playful demeanor, bordering on naive.

"Hmm... I personally prefer to leave the Heavenly King's Castle and head to the 'appointed location,' since this is a tea party for seven people that has not been held for seven hundred years. As the Great Witch, I cannot be absent."

but--

Hyacinth noticed that Dragon Strategist was carrying a purple shield on his back.

That appears to be the "Dragon Scale Shield," a sacred artifact.

"Are you going to the 'Mysterious Dungeon'? If possible, I'd like to go and have a look too."

Hyacinth looked at Zuo Chang with a grin.

She understood, of course, that now was not the time to hide it, and immediately said, "Taking me along will definitely help. The legendary Witch Queen is trapped in a mysterious dungeon, and she is waiting for my rescue."

Zuo Chang was somewhat puzzled: "Trapped?"

"Yes, you are trapped. To be more specific, you can ask the Witch Queen questions in person after you meet her."

"..."

Zuo Chang didn't quite understand what had happened, and he glanced at Long Ceshi.

Long Strategist didn't hesitate much: "Since this witch knows some inside information, it's better to bring her along than for us to wander around aimlessly inside."

"See? See? Even Senior Dragon Strategist said so! Can I be included too, Your Majesty?"

Hyacinth acted as if she knew Zuo Chang very well; she even bumped her butt against Zuo Chang's thigh.

Zuo Chang waved his hand and said succinctly, "It's about time, let's go!"

……

……

The four people and one dog passed through the mist and arrived at the dark statue of the god.

Each person held a sacred artifact in their hand. The War Demons, finding it inconvenient to carry slave devices, exchanged sacred artifacts with Mussogens and used a leather belt to tie the Book of the Rootless to their backs.

The five sacred artifacts began to glow simultaneously, and in the next instant, the world spun around!

Zuo Chang had already given a brief overview of the known information about the mysterious dungeon. After entering, everyone took out their own "Compass of Greed".

"Kakaka-"

The rapidly spinning pointer clicked, and the Dragon Strategist displayed his compass, saying, "Does this mean I have no desires in my heart?"

Zuo Chang shook his head: "It's also possible that you are completely unaware of the current situation and don't know what to do next, which is why you're acting this way."

is it?

Long Strategist carefully put away the compass and asked, "Where are yours?"

Zuo Chang showed his compass, the pointer of which pointed in a direction: "Mine should be pointing to the Hesei people."

Helen Hersey's attack gave Zuo Chang a sense of urgency.

He now considers the Hercynians his enemies and covets the sacred artifacts they possess; the compass clearly points this out, which is perfectly reasonable.
