Chapter 604: Peeking at the Screen
Late at night, after eating and drinking, the banquet dispersed.
Dorothy followed behind the two elders to leave the venue. When leaving this Yoshiwara Pleasure District, she looked back at this sleepless place that was still brightly lit and very lively, feeling a little emotional.
Sigh, some things, under the gorgeous appearance, always hide some ugliness that ordinary people can't imagine. That Oiran Ibuki clearly already had peerless beauty and peak-level powerful strength, but she was still a bird in a cage imprisoned by others, without freedom, and could only gradually move toward madness in the cage.
What has this world come to? Is this definitely a problem with the witch world's constitution? What can be done to change this situation?
The Home Witch fell into deep thought.
But she quickly shook her head and then tapped her forehead lightly.
"What are you thinking? These things are things that the Eastern Island Lord or the big shots of the witch world should think about. It has nothing to do with a little witch like me. Travel well and don't think about these things."
Dorothy reflected on herself like this.
However, she had a new understanding of her mother's teachings in her heart.
A strong fist is strong power. My naive and stupid daughter, if you want the world to cooperate with your beautiful ideals like playing house, you must have the power to make the world dare not say no to you, otherwise your ideals are worthless.
In this cruel world, only the strongest have the right to remain naive.
This was the evaluation of Dragon Queen Yufilia for her daughter Dorothy's fantasy of building a "beautiful home" territory.
Although Dorothy had always recognized the importance of mastering enough power to protect herself, she never had a concept of what level of power was enough to protect herself. And now she knew—at least peak level wasn't enough.
Think again, her Mana is only 50,000 Total Mana now. That meal just now actually increased by nearly 1,000 Total Mana. Awesome, now it's 51,000 Total Mana. Yay.
Pfft, not good, it's still far from enough. In short, the little witch has a long way to go.
"Senior Sister, are you okay?"
Just as the Home Witch was habitually reflecting, the Nine-Tailed Witch came to her side and asked with concern.
Audrey noticed that her Senior Sister had fallen behind and stopped for a long time, so she came over to see.
"I'm fine, I just think the lights on this street are quite beautiful."
Dorothy turned her head to look at the pure and flawless Junior Sister and said with a smile.
"Well, it is indeed quite beautiful, but it's still far worse than Venus. School will be on vacation in a while. Senior Sister, do you want to go to Venus to play? I can be your tour guide."
The little fox also looked at the gorgeous and colorful Pleasure District not far away, nodded, and then didn't forget to take the opportunity to promote her hometown and mention this.
The Nine-Tailed Witch was radiant, her face was very proud and proud, her big fluffy tail behind her was swaying, and those charming fox eyes that could hook souls were looking at the Senior Sister in front of her with water, in which was the expectation that could melt steel into tenderness.
Who could refuse such a naive, cute, and tempting little fox?
Dorothy had to nod.
"Well, well, I will definitely go if I have time."
She brushed it off like this. In fact, she had a bit of PTSD in her heart. This Eastern Pleasure District was already so dark. That Venus, the largest flower city in the witch world, was probably directly black and oily. Was it really suitable for a good child like her to go to such a place?
However, she looked at her Junior Sister who was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, and then thought of the Oiran who had self-destructive tendencies, and could only sigh at the different fates of the same people.
This is the contrast brought by the power gap. If Audrey was born on this Eastern Island, she would have been caught home and played with in various positions, and now the little fox might have given birth to a litter.
But the reality is that the little fox is well protected. Even in the flower city that is more chaotic than the Yoshiwara Pleasure District, no one dares to have ideas about this peerless beauty, because she has two Grand Witch mothers, a Sage ancestor, and a Witch King as the strongest backing.
e Thinking about it this way, I suddenly feel that personal power really has limits. It's more practical to hug a big thigh.
Dorothy, who had just decided to work hard, suddenly began to slide in her thinking. She thought of her good sister.
If she went back now and hugged her good sister's white silk beautiful legs and acted like a spoiled child, could she have everything directly?
The Home Witch thought so in her heart.
Of course, it's just thinking about it. After all, her knees are not good, she can't kneel down, and her stomach is too good, so she is not very used to eating soft rice.
Otherwise, why would she make that fifty-year agreement with her mother? If she went back early to inherit the family business, she wouldn't have to work hard for the rest of her life.
"Humph, I, Dorothy, will never be weaker than others in this life. I want to be able to proudly say to people in the future that everything I have is obtained through my own efforts and hard work. Only such a life is meaningful."
Dorothy fiercely poured a bowl of chicken soup for herself whose thinking almost slid.
"What are you thinking? Dorothy, what are you doing in a daze? It's time to go back and discuss how to move bricks and fight ash tomorrow. The relaxation time is over. Do you two really think we came to this Eastern Island from far away for tourism? Go back to rest early, and we have to start work tomorrow morning."
Ahead, the Spider Teacher, who noticed that her two disciples were still lingering in the Pleasure District, turned her head and shouted like this.
"Ah, this, here, here."
The Home Witch, who had just been inspired, looked at this teacher who didn't pay attention to the atmosphere with some dissatisfaction, but still pulled her Junior Sister's hand and followed up.
Let's put aside the lofty aspirations for now. After all, we have to eat, right? She now has an extra Demon Blade Wielder with a promising future to raise, and the food pressure at home has increased again. I hope the teacher's previous words that she could eat for hundreds of years after finishing this order were not bragging.
As for the undercurrents of the Eastern Island, it has nothing to do with a little witch like her. She has already found an agent for the Inquisition order, and now she is light and free. She only needs to rest assured to learn the skills of fighting ash. The future of a beautiful and promising real estate tycoon is waiting for her. On the other side, the top floor of the Mirage.
The guests have left, but Ibuki Iblu Yongyi, as the owner, is still sitting on the main seat.
The Oiran is looking at a token in front of her with a complex expression. The token is contained in a very expensive high-grade wooden brocade box, and the box is also padded with the highest-grade silk, just for fear of accidentally bumping or touching the token.
Although Ibuki Iblu Yongyi also understands that the sturdiness of this silver dragon plate is definitely beyond her imagination, even if an evil witch like her, who is famous for her brute force, tries her best to squeeze and hold it, it is impossible to leave any traces on this token.
After all, this thing is one of the most powerful magic items in the witch world, the core foundation of the Inquisition, the strongest law enforcement department that makes people fear, and also a symbol of the will of the Three Kings.
"What is that guy thinking? Can this thing be lent to others casually? Does the Inquisition still have any rules?"
After staring at the dragon plate for a while, the evil Oiran grabbed her hair irritably.
At this time, the hair that was dressed up like a peacock opening its screen during the day had been untied by her messily. The jet-black hair like wet crow feathers, once freed from its restraints, fell down like a waterfall.
Her hair is very, very long, and it still has leftovers even when it is completely let down and hangs on the ground, just like the Rapunzel in the fairy tale, but it is a black-haired version of Rapunzel.
Ibuki Iblu Yongyi usually cherishes her long hair very much. Whenever she has time, she will patiently take care of and maintain it. But at this time, the Oiran doesn't have that mood, so this beautiful long hair is scattered casually, covering the tatami floor behind her, just like a black silk cloak.
She has been thinking about it for several hours here, and she hasn't figured out why that mysterious little guy wanted to "borrow" this token to her.
Are they very familiar?
Didn't they just meet today, and they don't even know each other's names?
How dare that guy hand over such an important thing to a stranger she just met? Isn't she afraid that she will run away with the token?
This thing should be like the special magic wand of the guard witch (refer to the police gun). If it is lost, it will be a big problem, it will be punished, and even if it is serious, it may lose its job, right?
Anyway, Ibuki Iblu Yongyi doesn't understand.
But similarly, she is also happy because of the existence of this token in front of her, because her long-cherished wish finally has the possibility of realization.
This is the token of the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition. This represents that the eyes of the Inquisition have looked at this Eastern Island that has been hidden for many years, and the eyes of the Inquisition can represent the eyes of the Three Kings to a certain extent.
This is really great. As long as the Inquisition comes, the blue sky of the Eastern Island will be there, and those flies and dogs that have been hiding in the shadows will finally be liquidated. They should be dragged into the sun and get the judgment of justice in that light of justice.
Thinking of this, the evil Oiran is very excited.
What has she been working so hard to layout for so long for?
Isn't it just to make a big news, a big news that the Eastern Island can't suppress, so as to attract the attention of the Sage Council or even the Three Kings, so as to introduce the power of the outside world into the island, so as to use external force to realize the cleaning of the group of people in the shadows.
But now, a more convenient and faster channel is placed in front of her.
There is no need to layout or cause riots anymore. She can report directly, call people directly, and the ones she calls are the eagle dogs of the Three Kings that are more useful and decisive than the Sage Council.
You know, Ibuki Iblu Yongyi has collected a lot of "good things" over the years, and once these things are exposed, the entire Eastern Island will definitely cause an earthquake. In the past, she suffered from no reporting channel, but now, the opportunity has come.
However, similarly, Ibuki Iblu Yongyi is also not sure about the position of the Inquisition.
Although everyone says that the Inquisition hates evil like an enemy and is the nemesis of all evil, can this kind of propaganda really be taken seriously? You know, the propaganda slogan of the Eastern Police Bureau is also similar, but in fact, those guard witches are all regular customers of her Pleasure District after work.
Will the official forces really take action against the Eastern Island because of the so-called "evidence" she collected? You know, the status of the Eastern Island is very special. There are "immortals" living in seclusion on the island. If you take action against the Eastern Island, you will offend the "immortals".
Will anyone really go against their interests because of "justice"?
The evil Oiran is not sure. She has stayed in the Pleasure District for hundreds of years and has long known the sinister nature of human hearts. She is not naive enough to believe in the "justice" of the officials.
The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.
Justice is unreliable, only profit is eternal.
Maybe she just reported it here, and the Inquisition sent her reporting news directly to the Tenshukaku, then she who was betrayed would have no chance.
And in her original plan, she should have provoked those careerists on the Eastern Island who had long been unable to hold back and claimed to be more noble than the savages outside, let them preside over the reform of the Eastern Island, break the closure, and open up and expand to the outside world.
This will naturally violate the interests of the outside witches, so the two sides will naturally have contradictions and will fight sooner or later. Only then will she have room to pick thorns from it.
This plan is dangerous, but it is clear that the success rate is higher.
So the question is, should she report directly or continue to execute the plan?
Ibuki Iblu Yongyi was a bit undecided for a while.
And after struggling for a long time, she finally spat out the turbid air in her chest, then picked up the silver dragon plate in the brocade box in front of her, and then input a little Mana into it.
She chose to try to believe in the so-called "justice" a little bit, not for anything else, just because of the dashingness when that little guy threw this important token to her so casually.
This has the flavor of those heroes in the Eastern sword master legends.
Although the Oiran didn't believe that there were heroes who regarded money and fame as dung in the past, today the sword master who can communicate with swords has appeared, so the legendary heroes are not completely fake.
Moreover, she will take a look first, and can understand the Inquisition first, and then decide whether to report it.
With the injection of Mana, the silver dragon plate emitted a slight light, and then, a virtual screen that only Ibuki Iblu Yongyi could see unfolded in front of her.
The Oiran looked at the screen and found that this thing was unexpectedly simple, nothing more than those functional partitions.
Her eyes scanned the modules such as "Task Hall", "Summoning Order", "Inquisition Store", etc., and finally stayed on the constantly scrolling chat box in the lower left corner of the screen.
That is the "Inquisition Hall", and it is also the public chat window of the Inquisition.
Ibuki Iblu Yongyi felt that this was a good thing and could dive to see the situation first, so she clicked on the chat window and began to look through the chat records inside.
However, as she looked, her face became solemn, because she found that what everyone was talking about in the hall at this time was about the Eastern Island.
【Tyranny: Hey, when are we going to act? According to me, just blow up this Eastern Island with one shot. I want to see blood flowing into rivers.】
【Apostle Mode: Vulgar brute, not elegant at all. I have already corrupted many high-ranking officials in the East. I am just waiting for the operation to begin, and then I will have them start the rebellion first; that way, we will have a legitimate excuse.】
【Purification: It doesn't matter, I have already taken action. I have already arranged miasma around the Eastern Island. Don't even think about a fly flying out.】
【Desire: You guys are really wasteful. The desires on this Eastern Island are exceptionally fresh. It's a pity to kill them all. I really want to raise them all and then slowly squeeze them dry.】
【War Mentor: You burnt chicken, shut up, don't be horny. I went to investigate the inside of the Eastern Island today. It's not peaceful on this island. Laughing to death, I think we might not need to take action ourselves, they will fight each other to death first.】
【Tyranny: Speaking of which, I saw Joker's signal flashing on the Eastern Island. Where is she? I want to find her to play together. I like her very much.】
【War Mentor: Joker? Who is that? A newcomer? I haven't been on a mission for a long time. Is there any new situation recently?】
【Apostle Mode: How bold! You, a homebody witch, don't even recognize our top performer of the year? There is no longer any place for you in this Tribunal.】
【Desire: I have reason to suspect that the War Mentor is a spy. I request the interrogation department to intervene. This guy doesn't even know Joker, it's not normal.】
【Purification: I'll come, I'll come. I recently hung a name in the interrogation department, and I specially stewed a pot of special truth serum, ensuring that the spy has nowhere to hide.】
【War Mentor: You four fun-seekers are enough. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Everyone work hard. I'll go offline first. I have to get up to move bricks tomorrow.】 Ibuki Iblu Yongyi, who was diving and stealing the chat records, was silent, and then she looked up at her account ID in the upper left corner.
Joker (Agent).
Ah, this, Joker is actually me?
The evil Oiran was very shocked. Judging from the chat content of the several accounts with "Grand Inquisitor" certification just now, that Joker Grand Inquisitor seemed to have a high status even within the Inquisition.
However, was that little guy's status so high?
The Oiran was surprised. ===== CHAPTER 605 =====
