Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

The robin's pupils constricted, and it covered its beak with both hands, its eyes filled with disbelief.

At this point, the truth is... crystal clear!

The dreamer's voice paused for a moment, then clasped his hands together: "Mr. Walter should know that the family and its people are as close as brothers, embracing unity and one heart under His light, and all disloyalty has nowhere to hide before [Harmony]."

"Such exquisite and complex music, if not from the divine sovereign Hipe, what other deity could perfectly harmonize it?"

"Perfect harmony..." Walter emphasized these four words, stepping to within inches of the dreamer: "That's the problem."

His glasses gleamed as he gradually dismantled the other's sophistry: "What subtly alters the harmony is not an external enemy, but rather the dissonant notes that are secretly born within this melody."

"In the distant past, there once existed a star god in the world. He plucked the strings of his fingers and wove the laws of the galaxy. His followers formed the 'Celestial Choir' and spread solemn and dignified hymns throughout the universe."

He stared intently into the eyes of the dreamer: "Later, He fell. The path this star god followed clashed with [Harmony], and He was absorbed and assimilated by the latter. The chorus that resounded throughout the universe fell silent for a time, and when it sounded again, it had become a hymn of harmony..."

"Even if the Star God perishes, he will leave behind a destiny without a master. In the all-encompassing Harmony... naturally, old discordant notes may quietly arise."

The dreamer lowered his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Walter..."

"Being overly perceptive is never a good thing, especially when you are isolated and helpless."

Walter lowered his arm: "Hmph, I knew it."

The dreamer said, "For the sake of our great cause, please take a rest on Sunday."

The robin looked at his brother with astonishment, as if he had never truly known him: "...What?"

On Sunday, she slowly turned her head, and in the eye peeking out from under her bangs, there was reluctance, but even more so, a resolute determination.

hum!

A dazzling light instantly descended upon Walter and the robin.

Sunday's expression was complicated: "I'm sorry, robin, but you're the only one... I didn't want you to know all this. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned."

The robin looked silent; she finally understood why her voice...

"So, this is the real reason I can't sing? The shadow that looms over Pinocchio is actually..."

On Sunday, pressing one hand to his chest, he confessed in a hoarse voice: "We were never children of harmony, and the paradise we envisioned... should not have been created by Hippe. The happiness of the masses can only be promised by one person who stands above them."

At this moment, his eyes were as deep as the starry sky, and with the deity of his faith, he wrote a judgment for the world: "Within the law, mankind builds society."

"In harmony, we attain order."

The light curtain dimmed, and the truth was revealed.

The world was in uproar.

Is that even possible?!

[Star: Holy crap! You bastard, you tricked me?! What happened to trust? What happened to friendship?!]

[Yao Guang: Haha, what a thoroughly enjoyable detective game!]

She breathed a sigh of relief. The knot that had been nagging at her for so long was finally untied, and she felt inexplicably relieved.

"Unfortunately, the nameless ones are about to face a tough battle."

[Fu Xuan: Senior Sister, you expected this all along?]

[March 7th: How could they have predicted something like this?]

[Yao Guang: Haha, it's just piecing together a possibility using minor details and hexagrams, nothing to brag about. But who could have imagined that this possibility would actually appear before us with 100% probability?]

[Sunday: I'm so sorry, I've kept this a secret for so long, I'm truly ashamed.]

[Star: I'm really...!]

Xing was furious, almost laughing in anger: "After all that effort, it turns out I guessed right from the start?!"

I feel like I've probably been played, right?

The red and black list is SSS... The answer is actually right on the surface of the riddle!

Xing felt a tightness in her chest, unable to exhale, so she could only shake her arms and stomp her feet in discomfort.

What's going on here?!

[Fireworks: Hmm~~ Maybe going in circles is a tradition of the Nameless Guest?]

[Star: I...]

Xing felt like she had been choked up a lot lately.

[Star: Old Sun, you've been hiding well! How come I didn't notice you? You've even infiltrated the core of our team! I never expected this. I thought only omnics like Longlai Gushi would deviate from their original paths, but I never imagined that you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also betray Hipe!]

[Sai Fei: What does this have to do with looks?]

[Scott: Hahaha, what's so surprising? Loyalty is just because the price of betrayal isn't high enough!]

[Gold Sand: At first, I thought it was a conspiracy by Tong Xie to seize the territory from Kai Tuo, but I never expected that it was actually the leader of Pinocchio who led the betrayal of Tong Xie. The two "leaders" of the Oak family... have apostasyed and joined the heretics?]

[Su Chang: This is so messy...]

[Mikhail: Phew~~ Gopher, you've certainly taught a good student. And Galakh, you've chosen your allies very well.]

[Gallach: Ahem.]

The world was speechless with amusement, unable to find the words to laugh or cry.

Can you say for sure?

There are only two people in the entire Pinocchio organization who follow the rules, and Gallagher can spot them every time!

Luckily, he still had eyes, otherwise, if he had dragged the dreamer into the Dream Reef, things would have been much more interesting.

[March 7th: Where's Uncle Yang? What are you going to do to Uncle Yang? And Miss Robin, she's your own sister!]

[Sunday: I certainly won't do anything to them, especially the robin; her trip to Dream Reef was truly unexpected. Mr. Walter will only be asleep for a while, until the dust settles, so you can all rest assured. But that fellow who laid a hand on the robin, I will certainly not let him get away with it.]

[Fireworks: Whoosh~~ (whistling sound)]

[Robin: Brother, why? Wouldn't a paradise where everyone can freely choose their future be better?]

[Sunday: The answer is simple. Friends, if you've ever worked in Pinocchio's confessional for a while, you'll understand me. The hypocrisy of conformity will ultimately expose evil.]

[Star: Confession room?]

[Sunday: Yes, spend a full eight hours there. You'll have a completely different perspective on freedom, especially for those less-than-pure souls.]

—[Next up: "If even the purest and kindest souls make mistakes, who can offer them solace?"]

Even before the light screen was completely dark, Sunday's monologue had already reached everyone's ears.

"When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child."

"Once you've become human, you've abandoned the matter of children..."

The screen lights up.

On Sunday, I leaned against a small window, and the long queue outside seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.

This is Pinocchio's confessional, and it's the first stop for most people entering Pinocchio.

[Illusory image: Generally speaking, these are where nuns sit.]

[Fireworks: We're giving out special perks today, and God the Father himself has come.]

[March 7th: Why do you guys sound so serious? But coming from the two of you, it doesn't seem entirely serious.]
