Do you think this world is serious?
Page 165
Under the moonlight, she gently bit her spoon in a tender embrace, a look of confusion on her face.
The spring spirit nodded repeatedly, but its mouth was stuffed full of food.
Moonlight Embrace glanced at Chen Xiuming first, then at the Spring Spirit wolfing down her food. Seeing that she didn't intend to explain in detail, she suppressed her inner doubts.
After lunch, Wendy, who was already exhausted, found a guest room to take a nap, leaving Chen Xiuming and the others to gather in the living room, either chatting or playing games to get to know each other better.
Although the lake-bottom pavilion was immersed in liquid Honkai energy, the network signal was surprisingly unaffected.
……
That afternoon.
While Chen Xiuming and the others were resting in the lakeside pavilion of the Spring Spirit, the Huang Kingdom had already welcomed an "uninvited guest" in disguise.
"The Huang Kingdom hasn't changed much..."
A clear, melodious girl's voice drifted out from behind a mask, but it failed to attract the attention of nearby pedestrians.
Even though the girl's long hair was smooth and lustrous, exuding a noble and confident aura, and she had light blue eyes like sapphires, no one paid any attention to her.
The girl seemed like a ghost with no presence; no matter what she did, she wouldn't attract anyone's attention.
"So……"
The girl murmured to herself, "Where will you be? I have to find you before my sister..."
Even so, the girl had already looked toward the Forbidden City, located in the very center of the city.
After Chen Xiuming and others revealed their strength, the Holy King of Huang Kingdom would certainly not remain indifferent.
Even if Chen Xiuming and his group cannot be found inside the Forbidden City, they will surely be able to obtain information about them.

Chapter 250 Flora Arrives Uninvited.
The young woman strolled leisurely into the Forbidden City, and everyone she encountered ignored her.
Even if her image is captured on electronic devices, people using those devices will strangely choose to ignore her.
"The Forbidden City of Glory... I've heard so much about it, but this is the first time I've ever set foot here in person."
The girl's soft murmurs echoed gently, attracting no attention from those around her.
The Forbidden City was very empty, even desolate.
The girl walked on for a long time without encountering anyone.
After wandering around for a few minutes, she had a complete grasp of the map of the Forbidden City and then stepped towards the palace.
That was one of the few places in the Forbidden City where conversations could be heard.
Before long, the girl stopped at the palace gate and looked up at the stargazers, Prime Minister Rita, and Angelia who were chatting happily inside the palace.
On her very first day there, the outgoing and sociable Angelia had already become familiar with the stargazer and Prime Minister Rita.
The girl's gaze lingered on Angelia's smiling face for a moment before she stepped into the hall without hesitation.
Even the stargazer and Prime Minister Rita failed to notice the girl's "uninvited arrival."
On the contrary, perhaps because she was an "outsider," the girl's ability to reduce her presence had no effect on Angelia.
Therefore, Angelia noticed the girl as soon as she stepped into the palace.
A disposable mask covered half of the girl's face, and Angelia couldn't determine her identity, so she didn't ask any questions rashly, but just looked at the girl curiously.
After a moment, the girl seemed to realize that Angelia was looking at her, and she couldn't help but furrow her brows slightly, then tentatively moved left and right.
Seeing that Angelia's gaze remained fixed on her, she felt surprised but also became very interested.
Although she is not a complete Herrscher and her Herrscher powers are not suited for direct combat, it does not mean that the stealth effect of Herrscher powers will be affected.
Logically speaking, perhaps only those who are also Herrschers can ignore the influence of her Herrscher powers.
However, she did not sense any Herrscher-like reaction from Angelia, which made her somewhat curious about Angelia.
At the same time, Prime Minister Rita noticed Angelia's somewhat unusual behavior and asked in surprise, "Miss Angelia, what are you looking at?"
"what?"
Angelia looked surprised and then pointed at the girl, "Can't you see her?"
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Rita was startled and quickly looked in the direction Angelia was pointing, only to find that she still couldn't see anything.
Although Guan Xing remained calm, the knuckles of her fingers holding the feather fan were slightly white, indicating that her inner self was not as composed as it appeared.
Seeing their reactions, Angelia knew that the girl was definitely not someone the Stargazer and Prime Minister Rita knew, or at least not someone they were close to, and she was taken aback.
Even though Angelia was no longer a weak girl, she dared not be presumptuous, and without even considering testing how strong the girl was, she shouted for help without hesitation.
"Sister Delta—something's happened!"
Not to mention the girl, even the Stargazer and Prime Minister Rita didn't expect Angelia to be so decisive.
Before the girl could react, she felt a terrifying pressure suddenly descend upon her, making her feel as heavy as if her body were filled with lead, and even moving a finger was a luxury.
"What happened?"
Delta's calm voice rang out softly, accompanied by slowly drifting golden spores.
Looking in the direction from which the golden spores drifted, one could see that Delta had appeared at the palace gate at some point, her translucent wings, thin as cicada wings, already unfurled, radiating a sacred and holy glow.
Angelia pointed to the girl who was standing there in a daze and asked curiously, "Can Sister Delta see her?"
Delta's gaze remained fixed on the girl, and upon hearing Angelia's question, she nodded silently.
Angelia jogged past the girl, affectionately took Delta's arm, and whispered about what had just happened.
Upon learning that Angelia hadn't even considered testing the girl before directly asking for her help, she couldn't help but feel helpless and gently pinched Angelia's cheek.
"With your strength, defeating her head-on is not difficult. Don't forget that you can use the abilities of Xiu Ming, Cecilia, and Maria."
"Hehe~ This is just to be on the safe side."
Angelia gave a seemingly silly laugh, but it also sounded like she was being coquettish.
Delta looked helpless, but when she looked at the girl again, the helplessness on her face disappeared instantly, and she became expressionless.
The moment she saw the girl, she recognized her.
—A Herrscher in a rather peculiar state.
Had Delta not sensed no hostility from the girl, she might have killed her with lightning speed.
"Will you release the effects of the power yourself, or should I help you?"
"...I'll do it myself."
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl felt the terrifying pressure that had enveloped her disappear as she deactivated the Herrscher's power, as if the previous feeling had been just her illusion.
Only then did the stargazer and Prime Minister Rita finally see the girl's appearance.
However, none of them had much of an impression of the girl.
"Please forgive my unauthorized visit, Your Majesty."
The girl slowly removed her mask and introduced herself, "My name is Flora, and I am the Prime Minister of Jormungandr."
"Flora..."
Guan Xing squinted and carefully examined Flora.
Although I am completely unfamiliar with Flora's appearance, the name "Flora" is very well-known. After all, the war between Hexar and Jormungandr often revolves around the names "Claire" and "Flora".
"Please take a seat."
As Guan Xing waved his feather fan, Prime Minister Rita immediately brought over a wooden chair. "May I ask what brings Lady Flora here uninvited?"
Flora glanced at Delta and Angelia first. Seeing that Delta had restrained all her power and looked no different from an ordinary person, the fear and surprise in her eyes became even stronger.
If she could get Delta's help, she would surely be able to overcome that "sister" who was like a mountain blocking her way.
"I wonder if the Huang Kingdom has any intention of forming an alliance?"
Flora didn't reveal her main purpose, but instead sat opposite the stargazer with a confident and composed smile.
Stargazer frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled by Flora's thoughts.
With Jormungandr's current strength, there is absolutely no need for it to form an alliance with the Kingdom of Huang.
Alliance with the Huang Kingdom would not only fail to provide much assistance, but might also require us to divert some of our forces to support the Huang Kingdom, potentially leading to insufficient troops on the main battlefield.
It can be said that forming an alliance with the Huang Kingdom would do more harm than good, and would be a thankless and arduous endeavor.
Furthermore, after receiving help from Chen Xiuming and others, Guan Xing had already developed the idea of "dominating the whole field".
Flora's arrival seeking an alliance made Stargazer wonder if Flora had learned something.

Chapter 251 Flora: I want Chen Xiuming.
He gazed at the stars, lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.
Flora didn't pay any attention, nor did she urge Stargazer to make a decision. Instead, she looked at Delta and Angelia with curious eyes.
No matter how she observed, it was difficult for her to connect the girl in front of her, whose tone and expression were so calm, with the terrifyingly powerful girl from before.
It wasn't due to any other factors; it was simply that Delta's ability to conceal her aura was terrifying, even unbelievable.
If she hadn't just experienced Delta's power, she wouldn't have believed her eyes—Delta in front of her looked like a frail, ordinary girl.
As Flora sized up Delta, Angelia peeked out from behind Delta, also sizing up Flora.
Even though today is their first day in this world bubble, one night is enough for them to get a basic understanding of the situation in this world bubble, and they naturally know that Flora is the one in control of Jormungandr.
Compared to Delta's indifferent attitude towards these matters, Angelia showed great interest, mainly wanting to know why Flora would visit the Kingdom of Huang alone.
Judging from Flora's uninvited arrival and furtive behavior, it's clear to anyone with eyes that her true purpose is not simply to form an alliance with the Huang Kingdom; she must have other plans.
"Lady Flora, let's put aside the alliance for now. Aren't you going to reveal your true purpose?"
What Angelia could see, the stars could certainly see as well.
