“There’s no such thing! There is no such thing!”
In the confinement room, the middle-aged man struggled to defend himself.
“Prosecutor Song, you can’t frame a good man, where did I hide any dangerous items in the secure area? Where’s the evidence, where’s the evidence?”
“I, Jia Xiaokai, yes, I have made mistakes, but I am now actively reforming and correcting my past mistakes. You guys can’t add charges to me now because of the past, can you? I can’t accept that!”
Jia Xiaokai ran his hand through his not-so-much hair, his face all defiant.
Across from him, Song Shiyi was unmoved.
“If you give a truthful account, you will be treated leniently. But if you conceal it and don’t report it, thus causing a security incident and a bad social impact …… then your next step will not be to stay in a confinement cell, but in a prison in the Low Boundary Dimension.”
Song Shiyi said with a flourish.
Jia Xiaokai shook his arms hard and smiled bitterly, “No means no ah, how do you ask me to explain?”
“You guys can go check, go to my home and see, where did I hide any dangerous goods?”
“Prosecutor Song, we have to talk about evidence in everything, we have to check the facts, right?”
Song Shiyi didn’t continue to argue with him, she just put away her recording phone and got up from her chair.
“Then, today’s routine questioning ends here. If you have anything you want to tell us, feel free to ring the doorbell.”
She turned and walked into the wall.
Jia Xiaokai poured a glass of cool water from the nearby water fountain and tilted his head back to take a large gulp.
His face looked as normal, but his heart was in turmoil.
Why would anyone else know?
It shouldn’t be.
This matter is permeated with a strangeness.
Not right …… not right.
Song Shiyi is not the type of person who will swindle and make peace for no reason, she is the type of prosecutor who likes evidence to smash her face.
Could it be that …… it was the organisation that deliberately released the news, wanting to use the committee to force out the key in their hands?
Jia Xiaokai wrinkled his brows, his round fingers touching the tips of his eyebrows and using the back of his hand to hide his facial expression.
If that was the case, indeed.
Under the continuous pressure and stalking of the committee, one would have no other choice, and there was no longer any chance to independently drill the key ……1 for 80 years of incarceration, which is too long a time for anyone.
Unfortunately, the guys didn’t know that.
The key in one’s hand is not used to open the famous [Golden Wilderness], but the infamous [Black Abyss] – where the God of the Forest seals all sorts of terrifyingly ferocious and crazy monsters.
Jia Xiaokai couldn’t help but laugh at the thought.
The fact that the key was hidden in the Shardworld didn’t worry him at all.
After the epochal change, the Sharded World would quickly close up after losing its main god to push it, returning to stasis and forming a new safe zone.
The gods could not enter it, and could only wait for the trainee gods of the shattered world to advance to the pantheon of gods and move the fragmented world’s localities back up into a crawling zone.
Most importantly.
Even if someone could survive the trap he had set and get the key to open that one portal-
Next he would face a siege of LV40 level monsters, and that was just the outermost prisoners on the first level of the [Black Abyss].
Jia Xiaokai was looking forward to someone getting their hands on that key.
When the other party opened the [Black Abyss] with anticipation, their expressions would definitely be very interesting.
……
Lu Yao was extravagant today.
He bought two pistol legs, a beef burger, a fried chicken burger, a packet of fries, a box of fried chicken nuggets, two large glasses of ice cola with half a cut cantaloupe. The total splurge was $148.
Lately, I’ve been staying up nearly every day to operate, so today is a way to reward myself.
“Eat whatever you want, don’t be polite.”
Lu Yao signalled Isabelle next to him.
Isabelle froze for a moment and said, “My lord, I don’t need food. As long as the Flame of Faith in the temple is still burning, I can get supplies from it.”
Lu Yao handed her a pistol leg, “Sometimes you don’t have to be hungry to eat. This is a treat, feel free to eat it, I can’t say you’ll like it.”
Without Isabelle’s day and night struggle, the situation definitely wouldn’t be as clear as it was now. It was even more unlikely that she would have obtained a boss-level henchman like the Blood Knight and taken off straight away.
“Yes, my lord.”
Isabelle obediently remained.
She mimicked Lu Yao and grabbed the pistol leg and tore into it, getting oil all around her lips.
Lu Yao smiled and said, “Take off your sunglasses when you eat, you’re all your own people.”
“Yes, my lord.”
Isabelle’s hands were holding the chicken drumstick, and it was drenched in oil, and now she had to take off her glasses, so she was a bit fidgety for a while.
“Let me help you.”
Lu Yao’s eyeballs almost rolled out when he removed her sunglasses, and in a burst of hand-wringing he stuffed the other party’s eyes back into their sockets.
Eventually, Isabelle’s complete features were revealed.
She appeared to have an unsympathetic coldness, her eyes were bright and resolute, and her green pupils shimmered with a metallic texture under the light.
Compared to human girls on Earth, Isabelle’s eyes were too direct and frank, and at first glance would give people an aggressive and strong feeling.
After two more looks, Lu Yao realised that it was not the case at all.
Isabelle had a habit of having her eyes out of focus, looking like she was dazed, when in fact, she was nearsighted without glasses.
“…… Because I’m used to using the power of faith to look around.”
Isabel put down her chicken leg, bowed, and said, “I’m very sorry, my lord, my current grooming is really rude.”
“It’s fine, one of your own. No need to be formal when there are no outsiders around.”
Lu Yao rather felt that this was a bit more relaxed.
“Yes, my lord.” Isabelle still sat up straight.
To Lu Yao, Blood Knights were replaceable, and Isabelle was indispensable.
Let’s just say that he had asked Song Shiyi on the sidelines earlier. Isabel’s apostleship was naturally persuasive, so Song Shiyi, who was the committee’s prosecutor, was polite to her.
Isabelle stated on her own authority that there was a problem with Prayer God and that [Whistle Blower] was behind it.
Song Shiyi was slightly sceptical but still showed importance. She naturally spoke a bit about some of the theories of the safe zone, indicating in a euphemistic way that there was no need to worry, everything was under control.
A different person would not have had this effect.
As a matter of fact, Lu Yao also had Isabel go to the mini-mart and borrow the owner’s mobile phone to make the call to Song Shiyi. If it wasn’t a beautiful and wonderful girl, borrowing someone’s mobile phone to make a call wasn’t that easy.
With the Blood Knight sitting in the Pixel World, Lu Yao was now very relieved, so he had the time to eat fried chicken and chat with Isabelle.
“Why is this low-world dimension you’re in called the Shard World?”
Isabelle slowly gnawed and chewed on the chicken bone, patiently nibbling down every strand of meat on the bone and swallowing it into her belly, as frugal as ever.
“My lord, because it was not a complete great world.”
“A complete great world is tree shaped, and is made up of many small worlds connected together, and the core that connects the many worlds is the main god space, that is, the [Golden Wilderness] that you, my lord, opened before ……”
Isabelle patiently explained for a long time.
Lu Yao listened carefully and made a conclusion.
The Great World was a kebab.
The kebab stick was the Main God Space, capable of connecting to numerous worlds and coming in and out at any time.
The main god space was the private space created by a main god level deity, similar to the backstage manager of many worlds.
There was also another kind of [Masterless World], which was somewhat similar to shard worlds.
However, unlike fragmented worlds, [Masterless Worlds] had not been possessed and transformed by the gods, and some of them would breed some rare species or precious treasures.
Therefore, [Masterless Worlds] had always been an important strategic resource for the gods to search and grab.
Compared to the fertile Masterless Worlds, the Fragmented Worlds were barren wastelands that had been over-cultivated.
Losing the support and drive of the Lord God, the rules of the Fragmented World would quickly self-correct. The boundaries would be fixed once again, thus forming a new safe zone that the gods could not enter.
After this Broken World was stripped, [Whistle Blower] took the opportunity to send out believers and heroes to invade – even then it was constrained by the power of the rules, and the Blood Knight whose abilities were sealed was a prime example of this.
In short, the Broken World was a novice village for trainee gods.
