Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

A golden path appeared before my feet, winding its way to the city lord's mansion.

Dragon Manor is some distance from the City Lord's Mansion. Qian Wuyi, influenced by imperial ideology, deliberately built the City Lord's Mansion on a high place during the construction of Heavenly King City.

Looking up now, you can see the vermilion gate of the city lord's mansion.

Bai Lin glanced at the heavily guarded mansion, then turned to look at the three "annihilation cannons" mounted on the inner city wall, hesitating.

Flying Bird frowned and said, "Assassinating the enemy's leader in their lair alone is extremely difficult. If the White Scale Knight were at the fifteenth level, it would be easier, but due to the community's rules, he's only at the seventh level now..."

Mayumi also said, "With Senior Bailin's abilities, he is still invincible within this community. However, those three annihilation cannons are a huge threat. The power of such weapons of war, even just the aftershocks, is enough to overturn a top-tier seventh realm cultivator."

As the strongest human under Zuo Chang, Bai Lin's personal qualities are undoubtedly impeccable.

Furthermore, he can summon Cloud-Stepping Beasts to assist in battle, and in the Seven Realms environment, the combat power of Cloud-Stepping Beasts should not be underestimated.

But in the heart of the enemy's territory, he alone could hardly cause any trouble!

Zuo Chang asked, "If we assassinate Arclight, will the guards of the City Lord's Mansion take action?"

The Celestial replied without hesitation, "Of course they'll move. Protecting the Arc Light is their duty. Unless there are special circumstances, the guards will definitely protect the leader. Isn't that a given?"

Zuo Chang then asked, "If Bai Lin dies in the instance, will he die?"

"meeting."

Concise and concise.

The deity, with a calm expression, continued, "The outcome of the dungeon can affect reality, but this is certainly not without its costs."

Zuo Chang didn't understand!

He waved his hand and said, "Why don't you just give up your supernatural powers? This 'weaving fate' technique might be extremely useful in other things, but here, in assassinating Arc Light, it's clearly useless! Killing Arc Light, what's so difficult about that?"

With Zuo Chang's current team, it might be difficult for them to go to war with Tianwang City.

But when it comes to assassination, it's actually not that difficult.

Arc Light is, after all, a figure in the public eye; she is in the open. Zuo Chang, on the other hand, is hidden in the shadows, and it is not difficult for him to find an opportunity to approach her.

So, if the arc of light appeared within a kilometer of Zuo Chang, then—

With his weapons of war, the power to erase names from the netherworld, and the magic of war, Zuo Chang possesses enough abilities to kill him.

Even if a direct assault fails, the "Yin Jue" effect attached to the Yin Sword form is still a deadly move.

Throwing Bai Lin into the "Weaving Fate" process alone now only makes things more difficult. It's not that Zuo Chang looks down on Bai Lin, but in the Seven Realms, Bai Lin is truly inferior to him.

The god raised his head: "Don't be impatient. I have thousands of abilities, but I have only retained the ability to weave destiny. Now, I will show you the true power of this technique."

What's truly impressive about it?

The deity raised his hand and summoned the backstage: "God Mode. God Mode is the core of weaving destiny."

Thank you so much to reader 20230507215237630 for the generous donation, it's too much... Thank you.

In this state of mental exhaustion, unable to come up with any interesting plot, to receive such a good thing is truly undeserved (tears).

But don't panic. It's precisely in times like these that we need to be more proactive. In my opinion, inspiration doesn't fall from the sky, but rather is a sudden flash of insight that comes from deep thought and contemplation.

In short, here's one more chapter.

Chapter 288 Preserving the Original Flavor

God Mode!

Zuo Chang was startled and immediately perked up.

He craned his neck, gazing towards the backstage area that the gods had just awakened—

It was a sand table, a scaled-down version of the Heavenly King City, with every blade of grass and tree meticulously detailed. The figures on it had distinct faces and were even moving.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be a model that reads the status of the replica in real time.

"Let me see, let me see..."

The deity made a couple of movements, and with a crisp "beep," some words appeared above the heads of several sand figures.

The most eye-catching thing is the little man with the words "White Scales" on his head.

The little man is currently standing on Heavenly King Avenue, and he is clearly Bai Lin himself.

Secondly, one cannot ignore a small figure inside the city lord's mansion with the words "Arc Light" on its head.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be the "Dungeon Boss" Arc Light.

Zuo Chang was bold; he stretched out his finger and tried to crush the arc light—but his finger couldn't touch the sand table, which was just a virtual projection, not a physical entity.

"what are you doing?"

The gods looked up and asked a question.

Zuo Chang pointed to the sand table: "Isn't it supposed to be God mode? I want to try and see if I can just kill her directly."

The god scoffed, "Even God doesn't have that kind of power! But there are some small advantages. All those related to the 'main target' will be marked in 'global mode'."

She manipulated the screen twice, and the sand table changed again.

Besides Bai Lin and Hu Guang, several more people suddenly appeared with names and surnames, including Zuo Chang and Xue Qiangwei.

Zuo Chang frowned: "Me and Qiangwei?"

The god, unsure of what had happened, said, "It's true, you were among them too."

What do you mean by "really"?

Wasn't this spell cast by her, a celestial being? She herself probably doesn't even know the details!

Zuo Chang suppressed his impatience and continued reading.

Among a bunch of unfamiliar names, he found a familiar one.

He was a spy left behind in Tianwang City by Zuo Chang during the last strategic retreat:

Kumarajiva!

Kumara was originally a captain under the chief adventurer team of Tianwang City. After Arc Light took power, he reorganized the chief adventurer team, and all the senior officers in the team were transferred or dismissed.

On the contrary, it was members of the lower and middle ranks like Brother Kumo who were given important positions and thrived.

Zuo Chang wasn't surprised that he was marked as "God Mode." In the matter of assassinating Arc Light, Jiumo Lie could more or less be of help.

Zuo Chang turned to look at the deity and asked, "The markings are done, so what's next?"

"Then comes the crucial step: the path becomes clear."

The moment the deity typed something into the operation bar, the strategy for passing the level appeared on the sandbox.

[First step, the order to eliminate the traitor: Kumara is a spy planted by the Heavenly King General. To kill Arc Light, the first step is to gain the trust of the Heavenly King General and Blood Rose, and obtain the secret letter.]

[Second stage, secret rendezvous: After obtaining the secret letter, the player needs to meet with Kumārajīva at a suitable time and hand it over.]

[Third stage, disarming: Players must disable the three annihilation cannons with the help of Kumara.]

[Fourth Stage, Secret Meeting with Lauren: Before officially launching the operation, the player must contact Lauren and gain her approval.]

[Fifth Ring: Decapitation Mission: Players must carry out an assassination to decapitate Arclight and complete the level.]

Five steps, each linked to the next.

Zuo Chang looked at the strategy guide in front of him and felt a little unreal.

If you just follow the steps, the arc light will be killed?

It feels like...

It's pretty simple.

Mayumi frowned deeply and turned to ask, "Father, isn't this a bit too frivolous?"

Zuo Chang thought so too.

He glanced at the god, then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

The Celestial God remained calm: "This is no child's play; it's just beyond your comprehension. Don't try to understand me with common sense. Weaving Destiny is a system I created specifically for Zuo Chang. I believe that Zuo Chang plus Weaving Destiny equals my victory, because this is your area of ​​expertise and familiarity, right?"

Correct.

That's absolutely right, sis.

Although Zuo Chang is not weak in direct combat, he would obviously prefer to achieve his goal through dungeon-like means!

He sat down in front of the sand table and asked, "How do I operate it? Can I control the white scales?"

"It's uncontrollable."

"...Can't control it? If you can't control it, what do you want me to do?"

The deity said calmly, "While you can't control it, you can directly give instructions to the 'players' to guide them in achieving their goals. For example—"

Do you need task hints?

The words typed by the celestial being appeared before Bai Lin.

Inside the instance, Bai Lin did not hesitate and chose "Yes".

Blood Rose seems to know something; if you're at a loss, perhaps you could try talking to her.

Blood Rose?

Bai Lin looked at the prompt in front of him, then turned around and looked at Dragon Manor.

He didn't hesitate for long before stepping back through the door.

Upon arriving in the courtyard, he immediately spotted Blood Rose standing quietly by the pool, a long whip in her hand. White Scale approached with a hint of wariness and said, "Chief Rose."

Blood Rose turned her head: "Is there something you need, traveler?"

Traveler?

Bai Lin hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is there something you want to tell me?"

"I have nothing to say to you."

After saying that, Blood Rose turned her back and looked at the lotus leaves in the pond.

"..."
