Chapter 608

【Name: Gate of the Other Side (Gate, Space, Escape)】

【Appearance: No physical entity, manifested as a strange door of uncertain width, unknown size, unknown thickness, and difficult to determine material and style.

The only certain feature of this anomalous object is that on the door frame of the door it parasitizes, there must be a cork nameplate attached to it, with the strange words "I want to escape so much" carved with fingernails】

【Ability: Parasitic door, space shuttle, crisis transfer】

【Price: Before the "gate" that is put down disappears, a part of power will be permanently occupied / lose everything possessed, becoming a wanderer reaching the other side】

【File: The anomalous object of "Nathan", the leader of the rebels wandering in the capital, one of the large number of functional anomalous objects created by the Aquarius Director of the Cleaning Bureau to achieve wishes, tentatively numbered 0001.

As part of the Aquarius Director's most proud work, in order to ensure the safety of this anomalous object, he forcibly meshed it with another anomalous object called "Escape Nameplate", giving the holder an extra strong escape ability.

And relying on the powerful effect of "Gate of the Other Side" that can ignore distance, even if it has been continuously subjected to the extremely strict search of the kingdom for several years, the rebels with a total of more than a thousand members have never really been exposed, until they received the attention of Leon Ryan, a cleaner of the Virgo Branch, in an attack activity...】

【Evaluation: Has the powerful ability to shuttle freely between all the doors in the entire capital, and can be activated unconditionally when encountering a crisis, instantly taking the holder away, almost impossible to capture.

In addition, when opened by the first user Watching Watching Qiaoshuya Robian himself, this anomalous object will reveal its true form and become the "Gate of the Other Side" that can briefly penetrate the future】

【Infection value: 0.1】

Damn, it's really watertight...

Looking at the words "escape", "crisis transfer", "impossible to capture" that appeared repeatedly in the item description, Leon, who was thinking about this "anywhere door", couldn't help but click his tongue in his heart, temporarily giving up the idea of taking this thing by the way.

For this, it can only be said that whether it is the director when he is not drunk, or the old silver coin of the Aquarius Director, those who can climb to a high position in the Cleaning Bureau seem to protect both their heads and buttocks when doing things, and are not even willing to leave a hole the size of a needle for others to drill.

Thinking carefully, it is normal. After all, if it is really the kind of person who is careless and doesn't leave enough backhands, let alone mixing to the high level of the Cleaning Bureau, it is estimated that within the first few months of joining the Cleaning Bureau, he would have folded in that one-tenth annual mortality rate. Among these people, those who are not cautious are the minority.

Hmm... but even if it is very likely that I won't be able to get this extremely easy-to-use anomalous object in the end, this trip first found another hidden prince, and then saw the "grandson" with memory ability, and also heard a lot of intelligence. All three lurking goals were almost completed. It seems that it is time to close the net.

After regretfully taking his hand back from 【Gate of the Other Side】, Leon reached into his arms and knocked on the small mirror, signaling the young Ha to carry the valley terrain map he drew yesterday... or rather the location map of the rebel stronghold, and immediately return to the bureau to call people, and then, under the surprised eyes of everyone, turned and walked back to his position.

"Lord Nathan, your ability, should be peeping into the future, right?"

After speaking out his "inference", Leon looked at the middle-aged man with a gloomy face in the main seat, while secretly switching out the 【Elite Performer】 badge, showing an expression of extreme disappointment.

"It's a pity, no matter what you saw in the future, I still think that your command of us has made a series of extremely serious mistakes."

……

If he "called people" yesterday, the one who came to "close the net" should be his own director, but now the director has mostly set off for the General Bureau to initiate an inquiry into Aquarius, so the person sitting in the bureau should be Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma.

And because the rebel stronghold is not in the capital, in this remote valley far from the capital, it will take some time for Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma to come over. Adding the time for the young Ha to run back from the mirror world to report, it is estimated to be about 40 or 50 minutes.

What he has to do now is to find a way to drag all the members present in these 40 or 50 minutes when the "fishing net" arrives, especially the middle-aged man as the leader and the grandson with memory ability, so that Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma can arrest them and completely complete the established lurking goals.

After confirming that his task is to drag time, Leon didn't wait for the middle-aged man to refute, and said directly:

"I don't know what kind of future you saw, and I don't understand why you want to attack the boarding tower, but there is one thing I know very well. If we continue to act according to your command, it will only lead us to a new failure!"

"……"

"What do you know?"

After hearing "Little Bagins"'s very arbitrary evaluation, the middle-aged man who had endured for a long time couldn't help but feel a nameless fire in his heart, stood up and glared at Leon:

"You don't know what kind of future I saw at all! If you don't do as I say, then Krok... uh..."

When he said this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but pause, then touched his temples, sat back down, and scolded with anger in his eyes:

"You don't understand anything at all!"

"I understand."

After grabbing the sheep horn that successfully aroused the other party's anger and secretly stuffing it back into the small mirror, Leon, who had finished his means, looked at the middle-aged man who was in a mess. He first looked at his temples that were suddenly much whiter, and then asked calmly: "Lord Nathan, if I guess correctly, you seem to be unable to directly reveal the future to us, otherwise you will age rapidly, or even die directly... Am I right?"

"Right!"

Middle-aged Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, who ate a rage halo from the black goat and whose IQ temporarily dropped by 30 percentage points, directly admitted this guess. At this moment, he only felt that the anger in his heart was burning more and more. He forcibly suppressed it and did not speak to scold, but asked with gloomy eyes:

"Since you believe that I can see the future, why do you still question my decision?"

"It's very simple. What I question is not the future you see, but your judgment of the future, or to put it more bluntly, I question you as a person."

Under the confused expressions of the group of rebels, "Little Bagins", who had just joined the core group of the rebels, actually stood up directly, looked at the middle-aged man as the leader, and said with extreme sincerity:

"Lord Nathan, I'm sorry, I don't think you have the talent to be a leader. Even if you can see the future situation, you can't make the most correct judgment based on the information you get... And I am sure that I am not the only one who thinks so."

After saying this, Leon looked around and nodded with a slight apology:

"Everyone, I'm sorry... Those who think what I said is right and feel that Lord Nathan does not have the talent to be a leader, please bow to me."

?!!!

Completely unexpected that the dispute between "Little Bagins" and the leader would actually affect themselves, the group of rebels who were caught off guard stood up again under the effect of 【Prince of the Traveling Thrush】 and performed a standard bowing ceremony toward Leon.

The only two people in the whole room who did not salute were little Phoebe, who was sleeping on the table with milk candy, and the bald woman who was a die-hard "leader faction".

However, what is even more fatal is that after seeing that everyone "agreed" with Little Bagins' words and felt that Lord Nathan was not a qualified leader, the bald woman, who was shocked, hesitated for a while, and actually bowed down because of "inner hesitation".

"You... impossible! You lied!"

Looking at the rebel members who agreed with Leon's statement one by one and really stood up and bowed to him, the middle-aged man couldn't help but look shocked, but soon reacted and glared at Leon:

"The activation condition of your ability is definitely not convincing others! I have always been correct in the past! Even if every operation didn't succeed, I could retreat all over! I am an excellent... at least a qualified leader! They... they shouldn't think so!"

"Okay..."

Leon didn't argue with him when he heard this, but looked at him with slight pity, then nodded obediently:

"If thinking this way can make you feel better... then let's assume I lied to you."

"……"

Being "betrayed" by everyone in person, even if he can run away from Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma later, presumably he won't think about taking others with him, right?

Looking at the middle-aged man whose self-confidence had suffered an unprecedented blow and who was stunned by the sudden "betrayal", in order to prevent him from still holding any hope and trying to take others to escape later, Leon decided to add fire while it was hot.

"I can actually understand why everyone thinks so."

Under the confused expressions of the group of rebels, Leon sighed and expressed his opinion for them directly:

"Lord Nathan, you don't understand. What we who are willing to join the rebels want is not that every attack can succeed, but to see a better future!

The future here does not refer to the kind of future you see, but everything is changing! It is everyone's future, and even the future of the entire kingdom, is moving in a better direction, but what have you given us?"

When he said this, Leon paused slightly, giving everyone time to think along with his words, but didn't give too much, and immediately summarized for them:

"Attack! Attack! Still attack!"

"Attacking wealthy businessmen, attacking officials, attacking nobles, attacking the royal family... You don't know at all how to make everything move in a better direction, you only know how to launch meaningless destruction again and again!"

In the years you have been in charge of the rebels... sorry, I haven't thought about using other non-derogatory words, but after thinking about it, only the word "rebels" is more suitable for our meaningless actions over the years."

After a questioning of the "rationality" of the existence of the rebels, and after making middle-aged Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's face blue, Leon, who was used to killing people and punishing hearts, relied on the effect of 【Elite Performer】 and added a knife "extremely heartbroken":

"After your years of hard work attacking, have those greedy and cruel factory owners become kind? Have those corrupt and incompetent officials become capable? Have those arrogant and presumptuous nobles restrained themselves? Has the royal family, which has always been muddled and incompetent, changed?"

If none of them have, then what exactly did you attack? You can only take us everywhere to carry out "successful" destruction, but you are extremely unsuccessful in other aspects. How can you have the face to say that you are a qualified leader?

Lord Nathan! Do you understand now why everyone is unwilling to continue following behind you?"
