Chapter 113: Version T0 Battle Against Nine Clans: Match-3 (5000 Words)

"Don't put it so harshly — this isn't underwear at all, it's a Holy Relic, understand?" Mu Ang corrected, head held high, taking a deep breath.

That rich fermented mung bean stench smelled even more fragrant now.

That appearance sent a chill through everyone present.

Especially Mr. Piert, who broke into a profuse sweat.

He had just sent subordinates to investigate the backgrounds of Mister Buxi's two subordinates.

These two brothers — one infiltrated the Border Enforcement Squad and turned every member into Nan Liang, devouring them completely.

The other disguised himself as the Border's Fraud Cult and organized a massive lust gathering, wiping out the entire Branch Church.

It's said the Fraud Cultists who died there had no flesh left on their corpses, while inside the mouth of the appointed acting Sect Leader, everyone's hair was found — a scene simply unconscionable.

Seeing them today, their reputation is indeed well-deserved.

Add the Soul-Devouring Demon Dog seen yesterday — Mister Buxi's generals are each more perverted than the last.

But no matter how perverted they are, Piert absolutely refuses to put underwear on his head — it's a matter of dignity.

Yet he can't bring himself to refuse Mu's request either, since doing so would be no different from defying an Adult's command.

So he looked back at his colleagues, and sure enough, their eyes were full of resistance too.

Everyone's gazes intertwined in mid-air, forming a consensus — we absolutely cannot do such a despicable thing.

But the problem is, not one of these high-profile big shots dares to step forward and rebel directly.

They're all afraid of Li Cheng behind Mu.

Precisely speaking, they fear Li Cheng's father of unknown identity behind him.

Thus the scene deadlocked right there.

Seeing Mu's gaze growing increasingly impatient, Piert cleared his throat: "Brother, it's not that I'm unwilling to meet your request, but tokens have always been handled by our Propaganda Department's Minister, Lady Valejiao."

Passing the buck — Mr. Piert took the lead in passing the buck!

The black-skinned spicy girl Valejiao heard this and instantly knew Piert's ill intentions, so she coldly snorted: "Tokens are indeed the Propaganda Department's responsibility, but this many head-covering underpants — the budget's too large. I think we still need to consult Finance Minister Mr. David."

Another buck-pass — Miss Valejiao copied Mr. Piert's move! But who among those who can be Leaders is a fool? You can pass, so why can't I?

Thus, for a moment, the entire Square turned into a buck-passing conference.

"I think this matter should go to Art Minister Miss Varuo."

"I think this matter should be handled by Transport Minister Mr. Kaning."

"I think this matter should be handled by Madam Lailte of the Secretariat Administration."

"……"

Soon, after layer upon layer of passing the buck, this hot potato finally landed on the last person.

The bespectacled, pot-bellied Senate Speaker Mr. Maske instantly broke into a profuse sweat.

He looked at Mu Xiji's gaze, and his colleagues silently mouthing "refuse him" — for a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Fairly speaking, he doesn't want to wear underwear on his head either.

But refusing Mu risks angering Li Cheng behind him.

What to do?

Ah, got it!

The clever Mr. Maske had a flash of lightning behind his head; he calmly stroked his belly and said: "A matter like this, a mere Speaker like me can't decide — so I think we still need Administrative Director Mr. Piert to make the call!"

A boomerang pass — Mr. Maske used a boomerang pass!

Piert: ……

Mu: ……

All Leaders: ……

Thus this game of hot potato actually completed a closed loop at the final moment — a combo skill called the Non-Stick Pan appeared before Mu.

He gritted his teeth and said viciously: "What's the matter, looking down on my Underwear Operation? Do you look down on my Boss?"

"No no, we wouldn't dare!" Piert sweated profusely: "Hey brother, we can't help it either — look, forget us Leaders, not even the people below will dare put underwear on their heads!"

"Hmph, you don't understand what nobility is, nor what credibility means." Mu coldly laughed again: "Word becomes deed — that's my Ninja Way."

Finished speaking, his gaze swept over the staff present, and the candidates already stunned silly: "Among you, is there not a single one willing to emulate me and achieve greatness?"

Utter silence.

Everyone buried their heads low.

Underwear-on-head — only a pervert would be willing to do that!

"Sigh." Seeing the farce had gone on enough, Piert stepped forward: "Brother, you see — it's not that I intentionally defy Mister Buxi, the people below truly won't do it! If someone's willing to take the lead, forget a whole squad — even one person, and I'll push this policy through myself."

"But right now, not a single person willing to do it exists, brother!"

"I swear, swear to the Fraud Mother Goddess — if anyone's willing to put the… Holy Relic on their head, I'll enact this decree!"

"Damn it!" Mu groaned, letting out a long sigh to the heavens.

He looked at that dazzling sunlight, his gaze seeming to pierce through the sky, seeing Si Si Da Er lying on that sickbed.

"Brother Shisi, is there really no one in this world who can understand the combo skill that makes our blood boil?"

"Forget it, forget it — then I'll just have to—"

"Wait!"

Just as Mu was about to abandon his ambition, a clear, ringing voice interrupted him!

Everyone's gazes were drawn to that voice.

Anli stepped out from the crowd, step by step, his right hand staying in his trouser pocket.

His gaze transcended time, space, and all concepts, colliding with Mu Dui's.

At this moment, Mu even seemed to hear Background Music rising around Anli.

Just like that, Anli walked to the center of the crowd, her right hand also extending from her pocket, and what hung on her right hand was none other than...

Precisely the lace women's underwear that Mu had given him outside the World Tree Gate back then!

He had always worn this thing on his body!

At this moment, in Mu's eyes, he was like a god! "No, no!"

"Little Brother, don't!"

Pilt and the Leaders behind him all waved their hands, shouting loudly, hoping to stop him.

"Lady Anli, no, no!"

"Can't wear it, can't wear it!"

The several examinees were the same, screaming frantically, Nalan Yu was even so anxious she almost cried.

"Hehe, after putting on this underwear, I will no longer be a mortal, worldly desires will never have a chance to touch me again." Anli looked at the lace underwear in her hand, smile like a flower: "But, if it is Li Cheng Da Ren's command..."

"If I don't enter hell, who will enter hell! Keep your promise, Mr. Piert!"

He resolutely raised the underwear and put it over his own head!

"Damn it, damn it!" Pilt hugged his head: "No, don't, don't!"

"It's over, all over, completely over!" Nalan Yu collapsed on the ground, eyes dull, having already given up hope of living.

From today on, everyone in City Hall will have to become perverts who wear underwear on their heads!

Only Mu walked slowly to Anli's front, that underwear head cover filled with brown filth, shining brilliantly in the sunlight.

He just smiled like that, laughing, and extended his hand: "I acknowledge your noble heart, Anli! You will become Li Cheng Da Ren's Loyal Dog No. 3!"

"Can I become Li Cheng Da Ren's Servant now! Thank you! Mu!"

Anli extended her hand, the two interlocking fingers.

At this moment, art is complete! — Inside the luxurious suite on the top floor of City Hall.

Li Cheng listened to the rustling sounds from the Storm King Palace Bedroom separated by a wall, and yawned.

That was the sound of Vivian changing clothes. He could feel that the relationship between him and the Half-Demon could advance a little further.

Just short of a small fire, that plump... cough cough.

Just then, the system's voice resounded:

【Your Deception Loyal Dog No. 2 Mu has completed a no-difference terrifying attack on City Hall.】

【He deeply carried out your Great Love Art, helping you transmit Great Love in the Year 1345 City of Deception City Hall.】

【The Mother Goddess of Suffering is quite satisfied with you, she bestowed more Abyss Reputation upon you.】

【You gained 1000 points of Abyss Reputation, now possess 1135 points of Abyss Reputation.】

【Please continue efforts, become the Abyss's Son of God soon!】

"No-difference suffering attack? Didn't expect that Mu's birth actually pulled it off." Li Cheng raised an eyebrow.

This was just a small experiment of his, testing whether manufacturing suffering in this Instance/Dungeon could gain the Mother Goddess of Suffering's reward.

Didn't expect it actually succeeded.

"Hehe, I can only say, he quite has your style." Lilith, who had watched the whole farce below, also happened to float up at this time: "Right, Li Cheng, what else can this Abyss Reputation be used for? Can it only be used to exchange for resources?"

"You're the system, you ask me?" Li Cheng glanced at her.

Lilith: "..."

"Hah, not angry, not angry, he's sick, he treats this world as a game, not angry." Lilith patted her chest, suppressing the urge to get angry: "Of course I don't know, our Goddess Race are the Abyss's sworn enemies, how could we know what their reputation is used for!"

"Hiss, truly rigorous setting, worthy of Quantum Technology." Li Cheng nodded, explaining: "Abyss Reputation's use in the Secret Realm is only currency, but outside the Secret Realm, if one can find the altars of the various Abyss Sects, one can exchange for abilities from inside, or upgrade one's own Divine Favor Fate."

"For example right now, my Divine Favor Fate 【Great Love Little Angel】 is only Rank 1, if I have 3000 points of reputation, I can upgrade it to Second Stage."

"I see." Lilith nodded: "Then do you plan to grind reputation to 3000 points in this Secret Realm?"

"3000? You underestimate me too much." Li Cheng shook his head: "My target has never been such a small number."

"Already said, going to burn this city to ash."

The first two steps of the plan are already completed, what needs to be done next is the third step.

Meanwhile, in the Half-Demon Slums of the City of Deception, our little birth Karenina, had also already arrived on horseback.

On the Mo Fa Neng screen in the center of the slums, Miss Vivian's speech was currently playing on loop.

A group of Half-Demons surrounded the screen whispering.

"Heh, so it's that running dog who went to rely on City Hall."

"What does she want this time? Oppose the Half-Demon Discrimination Act? Heh, what boring thing."

"Tsk tsk tsk, running dog serving the Demon Race, wants to come out with what method to bully us again?"

"But, Miss Vivian has always been thinking of helping us!"

"Shut up, you have no right to speak here!"

Listening to these Half-Demons' conversation, Karenina's eyes also narrowed.

Before Li Cheng came to this world, Vivian had once tried hard to establish ties between the Demon Race and Half-Demons, helping a portion of Half-Demons go work at City Hall.

She used all kinds of hardships to persuade the then Administrative Director to agree to this proposal.

That was also the first time the City of Deception was willing to accept Half-Demons, giving them quite a few policy preferential treatments.

But the final result was that the Half-Demons who went to work not only didn't work, but also ate and took without doing work in various places of City Hall, disrupting work order.

Facing the Leaders' criticism, they even retorted with the reason "You bunch of big Demon Race, bullying me a Half-Demon, what qualifications."

Ultimately, not only causing Vivian to be demoted from a department small Leader to a clerk.

That Administrative Director who promoted this policy was also demoted to another city.

"Indeed, just as Li Cheng Brother said, the vast majority of these Half-Demons are not worth saving."

But fortunately, Karenina didn't come here to save them.

Her mission was to prop up the Half-Demons, making them voluntarily become Version T0 and fight the Demon Race.

In Big Boss's words, that was—

Even if everyone who discriminated against Half-Demons died, discrimination still wouldn't be completely eliminated.

The discriminated Half-Demons also had to die; only then could discrimination be completely eliminated.

Truly a perfect logic loop.

"Genius, Big Boss is absolutely a genius, able to come up with such a strategy, you really are my idol!" Karenina praised twice, holding a loudspeaker and walking to the City Center: "Make way! Everyone come over!"

"Who are you!"

"Yeah, suddenly popping up, are you an insider of City Hall!"

"It doesn't matter who I am!" Karenina smiled sweetly, taking out the speech draft Big Boss had prepared for her from her bosom: "I suppose everyone has already seen Miss Vivian's speech, right?"

"Now, I have a method that can let you not work and still get good living conditions and a lot of wealth, do you want to do it?"

"Are you joking with a three-year-old?" a Half-Demon who looked like a leader furrowed his brow.

"Whether I'm joking with you, you'll know if you try!" Karenina smiled sweetly: "Don't you want to? This is a great opportunity to do less and get more, to get something for nothing~"

"Big Brother, let's try!" another Half-Demon was tempted: "Now City Hall's policies seem to really be in our favor!"

"Yeah yeah, even the tower is crooked, what are you afraid of!" Karenina continued to incite.

"In that case, fine, let's try!" the Half-Demon leader nodded: "Say, how do we do it?"

"Hehe, first, you have to learn two phrases!" Karenina cunningly smiled: "The first phrase is called Pai Kai Shi Shi Bu Tan, does that mean the Demon Race doesn't discriminate against me? Come, recite with me!"

"Pai Kai Shi Shi Bu Tan, does that mean the Demon Race doesn't discriminate against me..." the Half-Demons recited along, feeling as they recited that they had opened a new continent.

So whether there was discrimination or not, one could directly Pai Kai Shi Shi Bu Tan? "Then the second phrase, cough cough, no Half-Demon will use their own innocence to falsely accuse others; I say you discriminate against me, then you definitely discriminate against me! Remember, when saying it, you must be righteous and confident!"

"No Half-Demon will use their own innocence to falsely accuse others... right! We Half-Demons, aren't we pure and clean!" a Half-Demon suddenly clapped: "We can't find jobs, it's all the Demon Race's fault! It has nothing to do with us doing less and getting more!"

"Mm, that's enough, with these two phrases, you can go out on the streets!" Karenina smiled: "As long as a Demon Race member looks at you, even just one eye, you throw these two phrases in their face, then report to the police, and City Hall will stand up for you!"

"This, can it work?"

"Try it and you'll know!"—From this moment on, the City of Deception changed.

On the streets the next day, groups of Half-Demons walked out of the Slums and went to the center where crowds gathered.

They deeply implemented Miss Karenina's Two-Phrase Bible and carried out terrifying attacks on the Demon Race.

And on top of this Two-Phrase Bible, they even made their own innovations!

On the Mo Fa Neng Che Tai platform leading from the City Center of the City of Deception to the Border.

A Half-Demon rolled his eyes at the Demon Race member in front: "Oh my, so it's you, Magic Treasure~ You're staring at my face, are you secretly taking photos of me~"

"No, buddy, you're a man, I'm also a man, what would I secretly take photos of you for?" that Demon Race member frowned unhappily.

"Pai Kai Shi Shi Bu Tan, do you have no fault at all?" the Half-Demon said with a smile: "Are you discriminating against me?"

"No, when did I discriminate against you?" the Demon Race member turned red on the spot.

"No Half-Demon will use their own innocence to falsely accuse others; I say you discriminate against me, then you definitely discriminate against me!" the Half-Demon covered his chest: "You not only discriminate against me, you also want to jue me!"

"No, buddy, what exactly are you saying, my orientation is normal!" the Demon Race member stood up.

"Wow, you've stood up, you really do want to jue me!" the Half-Demon took photos with the Magic Camera while reporting to the police: "The Adults of City Hall will make the decision for me!"

"No, what exactly are you saying!" the furious Demon Race member clutched his head, wanting to step forward to argue.

The next second, a Demon Race warrior wearing Underwear on his head descended from the sky, landing in a superhero pose, and grabbed the furious Demon Race member: "You are under arrest."

"No, I really didn't do anything!" the Demon Race member was furious.

"Hehe, Magic Treasure's defense is broken, hehe." the Half-Demon smiled and took the photo...

This action caused a huge uproar, and all the Half-Demons in the entire City of Deception were boiling.

It could be done this way?

Is this the gold content of Version T0? Thus, in such scenes, within one day, it was repeatedly played out in the City of Deception...
