Chapter 679: Chapter 526: Making the Ten Lords Puzzled (Part 2)

Sariel said irritably, "Metatron, if you’re awake, you’re awake. Why are you calling to wake me up?"

Metatron, equally annoyed, said, "With such a big incident, how can you sleep?"

"Why can’t I sleep? I can even sleep until dinner!"

Michael said, "Metatron, hurry and get into the mood. This time, it’s a submarine in action. From the images provided by live-stream players, it seems the submarine has long been lurking outside the port. Now the Bronze City’s coastal warships are chasing and blocking it, but it’s probably not going to be found."

Metatron was even more confused, "Submarines and airships are core technologies of Bronze City. Pirates shouldn’t have the ability to build submarines. Could it be that mechanics in the city are colluding with pirates?"

Gabriel laughed, "As soon as Chun entered the tavern, he was bombarded. Is this considered pirate revenge on him? Is it a page-turning on pirate’s part against him?"

Michael sighed, "If Metatron’s spreading tavern rumors can really reverse Chun’s pirate reputation, isn’t it a bit too easy?"

Metatron was stunned, "But what does bombarding the tavern and Chun at the same time mean? Is it purely for the convenience of the submarine’s fixed cannon aim?"

Gabriel said, "It might just be a warning to both parties? Pirates may have realized the tavern was spreading rumors and are dissatisfied."

Sariel said irritably, "What are you thinking! Chun was buried under the tavern rubble. This clearly shows it’s a pirate rescue operation. There’s a tunnel under the rubble, and Chun ran from the tunnel!"

Metatron was shocked, "All four robot signals are still here! There’s no indication of a prisoner escaping!"

Michael sighed, "Firefighting robots have arrived now. Let’s see the digging situation of the rubble."

Soon, inside and outside the robots coordinated, a dusty Chun was pushed out of the rubble.

Metatron let out a sigh of relief, "Look, he’s still here!"

Sariel laughed, "But he went online! He didn’t go online even when the City Beauty arrived, and he chooses to go online at this moment. It’s clearly a failed escape attempt!"

Metatron was shocked again, "That’s reasonable, huh?"

Sariel chuckled more, "So, this Taillight Tavern is colluding with pirates to assist him in escaping. To shed suspicion, they deliberately let pirates bombard it."

Metatron’s face darkened.

Gabriel laughed, "Though Sariel’s point always seemed...this time, I suddenly find it reasonable!"

Sariel said irritably, "I’m always reasonable!"

Gabriel laughed, "Metatron, with this happening now, are you still going to let Chun parade the streets?"

Metatron snorted coldly, "Of course! If two bombardments make me cancel it, doesn’t that show I’m afraid of pirates? Besides, as long as Chun is parading, he’ll surely try to escape, exposing more colluders with pirates!"

At this moment, Sariel encountered a situation, "My mermaid woke up! She said she wants to go play on the streets. I’ll accompany her."

Metatron laughed, "Thank me! If I hadn’t woken you up, you’d miss it!"

Sariel laughed, "I identified the tavern traitor for you, no need to thank."

Sela laughed, "Do you want me to accompany too?"

Sariel said irritably, "Don’t underestimate my Helen. She’s the Guardian God of two cities, and a spy like you would be seen through by her immediately..."

Sela sighed, "That’s an issue, when can my identity become legally recognized..."

Michael said, "That Bloody Nun Mary who used to help push Chun’s cart might be able to, find an opportunity to contact her."

Sariel laughed, "I’ll look into finding her contact details."

Sela got excited, "Great, while the mermaid’s in town!"

At this moment, at the Black Iron Church.

The mermaid, just awakened from her bedroom, was clamoring to hit the streets, and the congregants were undecided, "Lord of the Divine Throne, the Guardian God shouldn’t easily reveal to mortals."

The mermaid angrily said, "Why?"

"Because maintaining a lofty distance generates awe and faith in mortals, being too close causes problems."

The mermaid scoffed, "If I don’t investigate the public sentiment personally, how will I know if the news I hear is true? No more nonsense, I’m going out!"

The congregants urgently said, "If the Lord of the Divine Throne wishes to go out, please let us arrange personnel to accompany!"

At that moment, Sariel appeared, "Lord of the Divine Throne, I recommend an escort, a Nun named Mary."

The mermaid didn’t waste time, "Arrange for that Mary to accompany me! No need for others, too crowded."

The congregants, "Arrange immediately!"

Soon, Mary appeared, "Greetings, Lord of the Divine Throne, it’s an honor for Mary to accompany your outing."

Sariel noticed she still wore the golden scarf Chun bought her over ten days ago. He felt uncomfortable but now needed to build a good relationship, so he decided to buy her a more valuable gift in town later.

The mermaid grew impatient, "Alright, let’s go!"

Though the mermaid said other people were unnecessary, the church still arranged a group to follow behind.

Sariel thought it was good; with the Guardian God personally hitting the streets, such an event would lead to a large gathering, quite troublesome.

Suddenly, Sariel felt something was off and asked, "Lord of the Divine Throne, why didn’t you play on the streets when in Silver City?"

The mermaid said irritably, "In Silver City, can I even have a say? Let alone, many conservatives are against me. Here, it’s different; I just conquered a mine, and the people’s attitude towards me is different here! By the way, what’s the progress on wrapping up at the mine now?"

"Um..."

Sariel was also just awake and didn’t know!

Mary took over, "Lord of the Divine Throne, news just came in that there are no major threats at the mining area anymore, and work can start soon."

The mermaid laughed and asked, "Did the Sage specially send you to accompany me? What’s special about you?"

Mary awkwardly said, "Maybe because my name is simple and easy to remember?"

Sariel couldn’t help but laugh, "I watched your performance in the monster siege battle some time ago and was impressed."

Mary said flatly, "Oh? That time... the Dark Molier’s Sword appeared in the night sky, was it the Sage’s power?"

Sariel was indeed amazed; that time was an assassination of Chun! The Divine Artifact certainly targeted Chun and the cart-pushing her! She actually still remembers... Which means, his PK against an NPC, this NPC’s hate chain exists to this day?

Sariel felt extremely awkward, "At that time, I was also dealing with the Siege Monster..."

Mary laughed, "Must have been the Sage mistaking me for a monster, right? Actually, I can understand; after all, my training ways are different from ordinary nuns. We worship the Slaughter Angel Sela, and during battle, indeed, we can be mistaken."

She truly gave me a way out! Even naturally led the conversation to Sela’s troublesome identity issue!

At this moment, Sela watching the live stream rejoiced, "Sariel, quickly apologize; increase goodwill!"

Sariel immediately said with a laugh, "But I still want to apologize to Mary, how about I find a jewelry store and give her a gift?"

Mary laughed, "Sage, with your transcendent status, giving out some jewelry doesn’t seem quite apt."

Sariel was stunned, "This clearly is a bitch!"

Sela was anxious, "Give a Divine Artifact, I gifted the goblins outside the city a magic staff, let alone her, this bitch is worth it!"

Sariel was heartbroken, "I’ll think about what to give..."

In the moment of difficulty, the mermaid then said, "Why going to a jewelry store, it’s noon now, time for lunch! Mary, which tavern in the city serves good lunch?"

Mary laughed, "If Lord of the Divine Throne wishes to inspect public sentiment, there’s a Night Rose Tavern which is quite good, basically with the best food the common people can have."

The mermaid said eagerly, "Okay, let’s go to Night Rose Tavern!"

Sariel froze, yet again this Night Rose Tavern! How deep is its implication?
