"You didn’t see ’Harriet’; instead, you spotted your adoptive parents, whom you’d met once before, staring sorrowfully out of the window toward the ’Green Tower’."
"Your heart sank, convinced more than ever that something had happened to ’Harriet’."
"You disengaged the ’Hidden’ state, revealing yourself, and asked... Uncle, Aunt, what exactly happened to ’Harriet’?"
"Your sudden appearance startled the couple, but they quickly recognized you. Due to the fall of the former ’Prophet,’ they instinctively showed hostility and caution, but soon recalled something and let out a heavy sigh."
"Your adoptive father replied... There are many of ’Dorama’s’ henchmen guarding this area, but it’s not surprising that you managed to get in. After all, you’re my child’s friend, a strong outsider. You’re here looking for Harriet, aren’t you?"
"Are those guards here to watch ’Harriet’s’ family?"
"Your gaze sharpened. Indeed, on your way here, you noticed many stationed guards, but had assumed it was routine patrol. You hadn’t imagined they were here for ’Harriet’s’ adoptive parents."
"You nodded affirmatively to indicate that was the case."
"Harriet’s mother suddenly broke down emotionally... My child’s friend, strong outsider, please save ’Harriet’! He... He’s going to be executed at the ’Green Tower’ by the ’Prophet’ in just a few minutes."
"Executed by the ’Prophet’?"
"Shouldn’t Harriet be the ’Prophet’?"
"Your mind swirled with confusion, and countless guesses raced through your thoughts. You voiced your question aloud."
"Anger flashed in your adoptive father’s eyes... It’s ’Dorama,’ the younger brother of the former ’Prophet,’ one of the six former elders. He coveted the position of ’Prophet.’ Accusing ’Harriet’ of being corrupted by an evil force, he conspired with other elders to overthrow ’Harriet’ as ’Prophet,’ and now intends to execute him along with the Guard Commander who supported him."
"So, it’s that kind of drama after all."
"As someone who had watched countless soap operas before transmigrating, you couldn’t help but show an expression of resigned comprehension, while marveling at your ’disaster magnet’ constitution."
"You recalled the Holy Object that symbolized the ’Prophet’s’ status and couldn’t help but ask... Didn’t ’Harriet’ use the [Feather of the Grey Bird]? With the power of that Holy Object, he shouldn’t have been imprisoned."
"Your adoptive father sighed... That foolish child handed the Holy Object over."
"Your heart filled with perplexity."
"Harriet’s mother replied with a trembling voice... He didn’t want to hurt the clansmen, so he voluntarily surrendered the ’Holy Object’."
"You were rendered speechless, unsure of what to say."
"Of course, you wouldn’t allow ’Harriet’ to be executed. After all, he might hold the secret of ’King of Nature’s’ plans. You first comforted his adoptive parents with a few words and promised to rescue ’Harriet’; then you re-entered ’Hidden’ state and disappeared from the room."
Yang Qizhou’s face remained expressionless, but deep down he was cursing every imaginable obscenity.
’Deceiving Apostle’s’ Divine Descent Ceremony storyline was progressing well—so why did another side quest suddenly trigger? To say the least, ’Game Character’ was indeed a magnet for trouble, unable to peacefully pass by anywhere.
"Just a ’Realm of Light’; with the current combat power of this game character, it should be resolved easily." Muttering, Yang Qizhou shifted his gaze back to his phone.
"Having been to the ’Green Tower’ once before, you ran toward it, relying on vague memories."
"You pressed forward,
"and kept pressing forward."
"Since you were in ’Hidden’ state, you weren’t discovered by the surrounding Northern Realm Clan."
"You were prepared to make a direct sprint to the ’Green Tower’ to rescue Harriet, but suddenly you sensed something off. You swiftly stopped, activating your spiritual intuition to perceive the surrounding Northern Realm Clan members, your brows furrowing involuntarily."
"The nearby Northern Realm Clan members... something seems wrong."
"At that moment, ’Big White’s’ voice broke the silence, resolving your doubts... Daddy, Daddy, the people here are tainted with the aura of ’Charm;’ their consciousness is being eroded by something unspeakable."
"You asked in a serious tone... What is ’Charm’?"
"’Big White’s’ voice remained cheerful, though it tried its best to sound solemn... Charm is a subset symbolizing beauty. In terms of destructive power, it might not rival Wind, Fire, Water, War, or be as strange as Fraud or Foolishness, but it directly alters people’s impressions. Once affected, it’s extremely difficult to break away."
"A subset of beauty..."
"You muttered thoughtfully, forming a rough understanding of the essence of the incident."
"You once again set off and, in a brief moment, arrived in front of the ’Green Tower.’"
"There were already over a thousand ’Northern Realm Clan’ members gathered here. Looking across, it was an ocean of people, their emotions inflamed as they shouted curses fervently."
"On the platform before you, two figures stood at the gallows. Ropes covered in mysterious runes, radiating strange power, bound them. The pair about to face execution—one bore an expression filled with bitterness, while the other was filled with rage."
"They were ’Harriet’ and the ’Guard Commander’."
"At this moment, a young-looking man emerged, dressed in white ceremonial garb, holding a staff in one hand and a feather in the other, a smile of goodwill on his face."
"His appearance immediately elicited cheers from the crowd."
"You heard someone shout... The God-chosen of Cang’s Green Bird, Savior of the Realm of Light, Sacred Dorama, hail your benevolence and generosity."
"This man is the new ’Prophet’ of the ’Realm of Light,’ Dorama? You narrowed your eyes, dangerous intent flickering within."
"Then you saw the deceptively agreeable-looking ’Dorama’ raise his hand to silence the uproar. The crowd fell quiet instantly, though their eyes remained filled with excitement, frenzy, and worship."
"You heard ’Dorama’ declare loudly... He, Harriet, colluded with the Favored of the ’Tree Ancient God,’ murdered my brother, our most revered Prophet, forged decrees, and usurped the ’Prophet’s’ position, intending to drag the ’Northern Realm Clan’ into the Abyss of ruin..."
"He listed out ’Harriet’s’ crimes."
"Under ordinary circumstances, you wouldn’t have minded watching this buffoon perform and then suddenly revealing yourself at the last moment to expose ’Dorama’s’ plot, staging a dramatic turnaround—but now, with ’Asgard’ surging with upheaval, the ’Deceiving Apostle’ conducting the ’Deception Lord’s’ Divine Descent Ceremony, and the ’King of Nature’ scheming in secrecy for millennia, you had no intention of wasting time here and missing out on rare opportunities to reap rewards."
"You stepped forward, releasing the ’Hidden’ state. Under the astonished gaze of ’Dorama,’ the disbelief of ’Harriet’ and the ’Guard Commander,’ and the shock of the crowd below, you appeared before everyone."
"Your arrival caused an uproar."
"That damn outsider, kill him... you heard ’Dorama’s’ voice trembling with mixed fear, rage, and dread, followed immediately by attacks from various mysterious levels."
"In addition to ’Dorama,’ the five elders, chosen warriors, and guards—all struck simultaneously."
"You activated the ’Doomsday Lord’s Ring,’ summoning the ’Doomsday Apostle’ and the ’Doomsday Knight.’ Although you originally intended to let ’Null’ handle it, for reasons unknown, you ultimately abandoned that plan."
"the sky and earth were engulfed in blazing sulfurous fire. Towering over ten meters and emanating sheer destructive energy, two figures appeared on the execution platform. The violent forces they unleashed shattered all incoming attacks, and the mere oppressive aura of their presence halted the previously aggressive gathering of Northern Realm clansmen."
"With a calm expression, as if you’d done something trivial, you said to ’Harriet’... If you’re facing danger, why didn’t you chant the full name of the ’God of Victory’?"
