Chapter 736: I Already Know Who It Is

Since they were able to tamper with personal information.

Then it was obviously very easy for the Will of the World to add a non-existent [Title] entry.

Rather, if the Will of the World hadn't left this backdoor, it probably wouldn't have been so easy for Professor Samael to tamper with it.

"Then here comes the question. As the collective will of this world, why didn't it personally collect energy, but rather use this roundabout method?"

"The answer is also very simple. Because It cannot do it Itself, so It needs others to help It collect it."

Lan Qingyou snapped her fingers at Esmeralda.

A very confident smile appeared on her face.

"Correct."

Esmeralda's eyes lit up.

"But this way, a new question arises."

"What question?"

Gu Xiaobei, who was holding a bowl of seafood soup with both hands, chimed in.

"The fact that things the collective will of the entire world cannot do require the help of others to be achieved is already an incomprehensible situation."

"You have to know that this is a world of magic. As long as you have magic power, you can do many things you couldn't even imagine on Blue Star."

"Then an existence like the Will of the World should definitely be able to mobilize a massive amount of magic power."

"That thing currently above our heads explains everything."

Lan Qingyou turned her head to look at Gu Xiaobei, and then pointed at the magic array above their heads.

And everyone also followed Lan Qingyou's finger and looked up at the sky.

What they saw was not some magic array, but a transparent and slightly distorted protective shield.

But that was enough.

"The other party clearly has the strength but still did this, so there are only two possibilities."

"One is naturally that the other party is already weak to the point of dissipating, making it understandable that It cannot do it."

"And the other one is much more interesting."

Lan Qingyou smiled.

"Interesting? Heh~~ what exactly is interesting?"

Vivian, who revels in chaos, smiled frivolously and then raised the goblet filled with red wine in front of her.

She looked as if she planned to use what Lan Qingyou was about to say to go with her wine.

Alright.

That was exactly the case.

Because some of the news was too shocking.

Many people had decided to temporarily stop thinking.

And wait to carefully listen to Lan Qingyou's guesses and Esmeralda's divination.

Then they would think of a solution later.

After all, compared to the ignorance and crises when they first transmigrated a few years ago, things were much better now.

At least they had a foundation, and a group of underlings easily numbering in the tens or hundreds of thousands.

What crisis couldn't be overcome?

"About this..."

Lan Qingyou looked at the expectant crowd, keeping them in suspense for a moment, and then rested her chin on one hand.

"That is naturally that the other party was fundamentally unable to interfere from the very beginning. Everything we saw and heard were merely illusions."

"Hmm!?"

"No..."

"Wait a minute..."

Lan Qingyou's sudden change in direction caught the drama-watching crowd off guard.

Lan Qingyou, who had just been talking extensively about the Will of the World and the collective existence, actually used her last sentence to completely deny all her own guesses.

The most crucial point was that Esmeralda's divination had clearly already given the answer.

But Lan Qingyou still wanted to overturn this guess that already had an answer.

Isn't... isn't this going a bit too far!?

Alright, alright, alright.

The two of them teamed up to tease the drama-watching crowd, huh.

"I think you really need to explain this, otherwise we simply won't understand what you're talking about..."

Ruan Qingyi shrugged.

Putting on a very hurt expression.

And Lan Qingyou naturally knew that the things she said would definitely cause people to waver.

So after a bunch of people looked at her with puppy-dog eyes, she didn't act coy.

"To put it simply, there is no so-called Will of the World in this world at all."

"Or rather, the voice of the Will of the World we heard, and everything we saw that seemed to be created by the Will of the World, was actually nothing more than our own wishful thinking."

After Lan Qingyou said this, Vivian frowned slightly and took over the conversation.

"But since Esmeralda said it was correct and didn't deny the existence of the Will of the World, it means the Will of the World truly exists, but is extremely weak."

"Correct, the key lies right here."

Lan Qingyou pointed at Vivian.

"Esmeralda didn't deny the existence of the Will of the World, so in my guess, the Will of the World must definitely be weak to the point of being unable to act on Its own."

"Then, how would a guy who cannot act on Its own execute the things It wants to do?"

Lan Qingyou pointed her finger at Gu Xiaobei next to Vivian.

Looking like she wanted her to answer.

And the suddenly called-upon Gu Xiaobei panicked for a moment before blurting out a sentence.

"Didn't you just say to get others to help?"

"... I was talking about energy back then, now I'm talking about actions."

"So what's the difference?"

Not quite understanding what Lan Qingyou was saying, Gu Xiaobei looked at Lan Qingyou with adorably silly eyes.

"Of course there's a difference. For example, the previous giant magic beast riot. Who went to awaken them?"

"Even if the Will of the World had related execution items before, now that It cannot move on Its own, It definitely needs other proxies to execute this kind of task."

Lan Qingyou briefly explained her meaning.

Now everyone finally understood what Lan Qingyou was talking about.

"Now that you mention it, that really is the case..."

"For this kind of thing, there must definitely be someone assisting the Will of the World. otherwise, the weak Will of the World definitely wouldn't be able to accomplish it."

Ingrid rubbed her chin and nodded in strong agreement.

Of course.

This agreement was based on Lan Qingyou's guess.

If using the other party's guess as a baseline, then there definitely existed a group of people working for the Will of the World.

"Then how did the other party know we found this place?"

Gu Xiaobei was puzzled.

"Do you even need to ask? It must definitely be the Will of the World sending a message to that person. Don't forget, the Will of the World has always been monitoring us."

"Putting it that way, it is possible."

"Then can I understand it as the guy collaborating with the Will of the World causing that colossal beast riot?"

Olf immediately called out.

"That's for sure."

"No... I actually think otherwise. After all, there is still a difference between the executor and the designator."

Although Olf agreed, Chu Yuan next door shook his head.

"So we can't single out either one of these two to talk about?"

"Yeah, that definitely won't work, otherwise it would be too biased."

"Is there any way to find those people? As long as we find them, at least we can know what the Will of the World is trying to do."

"And the matter of the Will of the World disappearing also needs to be carefully pondered over."

Since they had already talked up to this point.

Then naturally there would be people who wanted to find those guys.

After all, firsthand information was always better than blindly guessing constantly.

Although with the Tower Witch's abilities, the probability of guessing right was still quite high.

But who wouldn't want to cut out the middleman?

"What's so difficult about this? Wouldn't it be fine to just have Esmeralda do a divination?"

Gu Xiaobei said casually.

"Idiot, just thinking about this kind of divination makes me feel like it would cost a lot."

"I actually don't think it's a matter of cost. Maybe the other party has some magical item specifically for countering divination."

"No, I already know who it is..."

Just as everyone was discussing how to find the other party, Lan Qingyou directly killed the conversation with one sentence.
