2451 Don’t Try to Maintain a Clean Reputation!
Given that the two of them had even risked their lives, it was unlikely that Lin Yuan would only show favor to the mermaids and abandon them.
A powerful force exploded out from an enormous black coffin.
The coffin was pushed open by a crack. A black and red tentacle emerged from the crack and slapped the black candle on the coffin. The candle fell to the ground, and the black wax oil sprayed all over the obsidian tiles on the ground, melting holes into the tiles.
The purple flame had already been extinguished, but a soft peal of laughter caused the flame to be reignited.
“Crimson, you’re still the same even after the millennia that have pa.s.sed. You’re still unwilling to believe me!”
While she spoke, the girl wearing a black skirt with her head lowered picked up the burning candle on the ground with one hand while she waved her other hand as though she was sweeping away nonexistent dust in the air.
A deep voice said from within the black coffin, “Reality has proven that you still don’t deserve my trust even after all these millennia! Warbler Candle, settle down. I know you’re eager to see Falling Rainbow again, but you should know that Epoch G.o.d Palace won’t sit by and be idle about you activating the Sleeper’s Revival. We’re not the only ones who landed here from that place! It seems that the Tarot Round Table is also connected with the outside world.”
Second Page Warbler Candle’s expression turned solemn when she heard the words ‘Epoch G.o.d Palace’. If not for Epoch G.o.d Palace, they would not have had to sleep in the black coffins for almost 10,000 years.
Luckily, the existence of Epoch G.o.d Palace was only to ensure that there was no chaos in the epochs and that everything proceeded normally in the six epochs. It was almost as though Epoch G.o.d Palace was waiting for something to turn up from the six epochs.
If the Sleeper’s Revival plan was activated now, it would affect the fifth epoch’s progression to the sixth one. Someone from Epoch G.o.d Palace would definitely step in.
Even now, First Page Crimson did not know what level Epoch G.o.d Palace was at. Those few members of Epoch G.o.d Palace were calling out two forbidden names and praying to them. Their actions could not be more clearly that of servants.
“The tentacle that I created has been destroyed. Once I go back to sleep, no one will be around to restrain you. If you think you can handle Epoch G.o.d Palace, you may do as you please!”
An enormous surge of strength appeared from within the black coffin and pulled the coffin shut.
Second Page Warbler Candle looked at the black candle burning with a purple flame in her hand but did not place it back on First Page Crimson’s coffin.
“Forget it. I’ll wait another eight months. Falling Rainbow, I wonder if you still look as you did even after all these years!”
While she spoke, a sentimental and nostalgic expression appeared on Second Page Warbler Candle’s face.
Strange candle flame patterns appeared on the left side of her face and started spreading outward. The candle flames were extremely bright and filled the large hall with dark shadows.
By the time that light returned to the large hall, Second Page Warbler Candle had returned to her original appearance.
“Hehe! Those gra.s.shoppers I picked up are becoming better at jumping! They want to leave Tower Canon? From the moment they became part of Tower Canon, they were fated to be imprisoned by Tower Canon forever! Let me take some time to discipline the lot of you and also take the chance to address your suspicions. I’ll show you just what Tower Canon is!”
…
That night, the G.o.d of Fools and Mirror G.o.d sought the G.o.ddess of Mercy out to speak to her privately.
The G.o.ddess of Mercy had started out feeling nervous, but she relaxed after they came to call on her.
After being shocked by First Page Crimson’s aura, Ink Ocean and Frozen Ocean had completely different att.i.tudes from before. They were now very cautious and afraid of encountering trouble.
After spending time with the G.o.ddess of Mercy, they finally understood what a foul-mouthed girl was like!
She clearly possessed the mermaid king bloodline but did not have the elite demeanor that came with it.
She was either insulting someone or about to do so!
At first, they were excited when they heard her insulting others. It was as though she was saying the words that they wanted to say but could not.
But now, they only had one hope, which was that she spoke as little as possible so she did not end up offending someone they could not afford to offend!
Lin Yuan had personally tasked them with taking care of the G.o.ddess of Mercy. His tone had been extremely serious when he was giving them the task.
Thus, even if they encountered an expert they could not handle, they would have no choice but to fight to the death. They could not abandon the G.o.ddess of Mercy and flee, or else they would be unable to face Lin Yuan.
The G.o.ddess of Mercy looked haughtily at the Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools as she waited for them to reveal the purpose of seeking her out.
The G.o.ddess of Mercy never expected that they would end up trying to comfort her!
“Tower Canon was trying to divide us. Don’t take it to heart! After this incident, we will ask them to make it up to you! For now, the Freedom Federation is in crisis. You will have to endure them for some time. I’m sure that you can understand where we’re coming from.”
The Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools’ words caused the G.o.ddess of Mercy to roll her eyes internally.
Understand where they were coming from? Who could understand? She had her own difficulties! She no longer saw herself as a part of the Freedom Federation!
The Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools were trying to comfort her. But when it came to compensation, most of the benefits would go to them while she only received a small portion.
Ever since they unlocked their spirit fire, they no longer had any respect for her. They were only comforting her now because the issue with the marsh world had not been resolved. The Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools did not want to end up handling a situation that they were not equipped to handle.
The G.o.ddess of Mercy would not have commented on the Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools’ fears in the past. Moreover, she was linked to Fifth Page Truth’s death. Third Page Eternal Sin had not been lying.
But now that she had a source of support, the G.o.ddess of Mercy could not be bothered with caution. The only thing she wanted to do now was to tick them off!
“Understand where you’re coming from? What difficulties could you have? You just want to sacrifice my profits to get on Tower Canon’s good side. Otherwise, why did none of you stand up for me when Third Page Eternal Sin was maligning me? You just let her continue saying whatever she wanted. We’re all aware of what kind of people the two of you are and what you’ve done. Don’t try to maintain a clean reputation!”
The G.o.ddess of Mercy’s words caused the Mirror G.o.d and G.o.d of Fools’ expressions to change, and they both glared at her.
Her reaction was rather abnormal! Similar incidents had happened in the past, but she used to always force down her grievances. She never put on such displays.
